Chapter Seventy-One: Ancient Sayings
Xinghe is so tired, Mama Wang doesn't show up or intervene in the whole process of dealing with Xiangtao, after all, Xiangtao is the person selected by the old lady, and she is the godgranddaughter of Mama Wang, the most decent person in the house, which is why Xinghe has always been used to her.
But in this already unequal world, how the maid is doing depends on the mood of the master, and the master who is so good to serve is also the only one in the Yang Mansion.
Xinghe didn't dare to sleep too hard, squinted for a while and got up, looked at the crisp peach that was kneeling on the ground for an unknown amount of time, frowned and asked; "What are you doing?".
Crispy peach hurriedly kowtowed; "Miss, the slave and maid also did something wrong in the afternoon, please punish the slave and maid, as long as you don't sell the slave and maid, and punish the slave and maid willingly."
Xinghe was a little puzzled, but because he had a cold today, his head hurt a little, and he thought that he was going to serve the old lady, so he didn't bother to ask her; "Wait for me to wash, I'll go to the old lady's side later."
Crispy Peach hurriedly got up, but because she knelt for too long, she fell directly to the ground, Xinghe hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and whispered; "You're not stupid, I'm asleep, what's the use of you kneeling here".
Rubbing her gently, I heard her hiss, so I lifted her trouser legs, and her knees were purple, and I couldn't bear it anymore.
He took out the ointment and gave it to her; "I painted it myself, I don't need you to serve me, call someone who can comb my hair over, and I'll ask my grandmother to ask for another maid later, you can rest for a few days."
The crisp peach eyes were red, and the fluttering tears said that they would stay, and Xinghe couldn't bear to comfort a few words.
After freshening up, it was not early, she hurried to the old lady's yard, if it wasn't for the fact that today was the first day of the new year, she would really be sick and rest.
It was not easy to change everyone's opinion of her, and she couldn't fall short.
At this time, the old lady just got up, Xinghe stood at the door and waited, helping the old lady sort out her clothes, and helping the old lady choose a hairpin.
She really doesn't know why there are so many things to say between women, and the parents are short, and one thing can be turned out repeatedly, and she is not too tired to panic.
After chatting for a while, when Xinghe was about to fall asleep, the housemother turned the topic to her; "I heard that the peaches in your yard were beaten and sold for thirty boards, what did you do?"
It seems that he is here to support Huan Huan.
Before Xinghe could speak, Mama Wang, who was standing next to her, knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed; "It's all the old slaves, they didn't teach her the rules well, they all climbed on the young lady to make a fortune, the old slave is ashamed of the old lady and the young lady!"
Mama Wang is usually a very good-tempered person, who in the house does not praise her kindness, she is the old lady's dowry maid, what wind and rain have not been seen, so tearful, you don't need to think about how excessive the peach is.
Xinghe was also busy getting up and pulling Mama Wang; "Mama, what you said is not right, the crisp peach was also brought out by you, how many girls you brought out in the house are extremely good and capable, just a few crooked, this is really not your reason, it is their own heart is black, they have taken care of me for so many years, I can't be grateful, you really make me uncomfortable."
Tut-tut, this is really nice.
After all, Peach is the person sent by her grandmother, and she always wants her grandmother to save face.
The old lady seemed to know about this, and pretended to ask a few words, and Xinghe said coquettishly; "Grandmother, I don't care, this girl was given by you, if you don't have it, you have to pay me back."
Grandmother smiled; "You quirky little girl, you still think about your grandmother's girl, you are going to get married in two years, so you will buy a few maids by yourself to train you to marry."
Xinghe's little face blushed slightly; "I still want to accompany my grandmother for a few more years, my grandmother's girls are excellent, it's too troublesome for me to choose by myself, grandmother, you love me the most, just give me a few more girls."
Grandmother laughed and scolded; "Phew, there are a few girls, greedy ghosts, go to your aunt to pay silver, buy seven or eight maids back, and teach them yourself."
The housewife lowered her head to drink tea, hiding the unnatural look on her face.
Seven or eight girls, heh, what a big show.
As for the daughter of the five-grade salt official, is it worthy?
Xinghe pouted and coquettish, she really didn't want to teach the girl by herself, the trouble was dead, is it not good to have a ready-made one?
My grandmother just wouldn't let go, and was making a fuss, and the grandmother said; "Now I don't have enough time to buy a girl for the New Year, why don't I choose two capable ones from my house to respond to the emergency?"
Xinghe just wanted to say yes.
Grandmother pinched Xinghe's thigh fiercely, and Xinghe's eyes instantly turned red and closed his mouth.
My grandmother is the only way; "There are still a few days before Chinese New Year's Eve, tomorrow Mother Wang will accompany Lady Wang to choose a few more maids, during this time you will help her manage the maid and the maid together, and the deed of sale will be kept for her, and when her maid is disciplined, you will come back, but you can't bring out a white-eyed wolf again."
Mama Wang hurriedly responded; "Haole, the old slave must keep his eyes open this time, and he must not let Miss Biao be wronged again."
Xinghe responded pitifully; "Then there is Mama Lao."
The mistress was so angry that her silver teeth were about to be broken.
At this time, several other girls and ladies also came to say goodbye, and suddenly the room became lively, and Xinghe was finally able to squint for a while, and his head was really painful.
I rubbed in my grandmother's arms, and at first I listened to them say a few words, and then I fell asleep completely.
Until it was time to eat, when Lord Yang came to say goodbye, Xinghe was the only one who was still sleeping on his stomach.
Lord Yang didn't like Xinghe very much, but every time he tolerated it for his grandmother's sake, he just caught the handle today, and he was displeased; "Xueshang, I just fool around with my grandmother's love on weekdays, why don't I even forget the etiquette now."
Xinghe, who was lying in the arms of the old lady, was still motionless, allowing her grandmother to secretly pat her on the back!
Seeing that her son was really angry, the old lady pushed Xinghe again, only to find that the temperature on her body was very high, and her forehead was hot.
Hurriedly shouted; "Call the doctor, I have a fever, oh, my little pitiful, why don't you get sick when you're so uncomfortable, you have to come to serve me to wash, you are so filial, even your son and daughter-in-law can't compare!".
What he said was so straightforward that Lord Yang and Mrs. Yang turned red.
