Chapter 25: Spring Hunting
The daughter and the eldest sister interrogated the subordinates for a long time, but they didn't ask anything, so they didn't dare to disturb their father. The incident has happened, and the top priority is to help the eldest sister make up for it, and ask Xiaodong to go to the treasury of the Wanqing Courtyard to turn over the embroidery samples left by his mother when she was there, and re-embroider a 'Guanyin statue' according to the appearance. ”
"It's good, it's okay with the Guanyin statue."
"It's just that time is tight, I wanted to wait for my father to finish this game of chess and then tell my father that I and my eldest sister won't be able to go to the spring hunt, and I also found a few embroidery girls from outside to help embroider together."
"Ahh Well, the Queen's birthday is an important matter. After speaking, Rong Chuan turned back to play chess, looking indifferent.
Leaving the grievance but not in a hurry, Aunt Xu was about to interject, Rong Changning took the opportunity to chase after her and said: "The statue of Guanyin is compared to the picture of longevity...... It looks much smaller, and my eldest sister and I plan to work more on the materials and silk threads. Among them, Guanyin's hair wants to be twisted into a strand of human hair mixed with silk threads, so that the embroidered hair can be lifelike, and it can be regarded as a piece of sincerity that my Rong family sisters and brothers pray for the queen's birthday. But the parents who are affected by the body have to ask their father. ”
Rong Chuan looked back at her: "You want to use your own hair?" ”
"That's it...... There are not many children in the family, and it will not be too conspicuous if it is cut off. ”
Rong Chuan's index finger pointed at the chessboard and looked at Rong Xin below. Rong Xin was reluctant because Rong Changning mentioned that he wanted to cut his hair, so Rong Chuan said: "Isn't the silk thread good? The gold and silver lines are as expensive as they are, ask Aunt Xu to allocate money to your eldest sister, and she chooses by herself. ”
"It's okay, it's just that I'm afraid...... Fear...... Anyway, the daughter and eldest sister obeyed their father's arrangement. ”
Fortunately, Rong Changning didn't mention this stubble anymore, and Rong Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down with Aunt Xu on her knees, and Aunt Xu brought out the cakes: "Master Hou, the concubine made a few cakes and sent them to you to taste." ”
I don't want Rong Changning to look at Rong Xin's hand that took the food box, and opened his mouth again: "Why don't Xin'er stay and help me and my eldest sister, what does my father think?" ”
"Okay, anyway, Xin'er is idle and idle, so I'll help you at home. That's how sisters in the family are, sharing weal and weal. ”
Rong Xin's eyes immediately widened, and those peach blossom eyes were full of anger.
"What my father said is that in this way, I and my eldest sister Xin'er will not be able to go to the spring hunt."
It turned out that Rong Changning went around this big circle, and he was waiting for Rong Xin here, as soon as this sentence was spoken, Rong Xin looked panicked for fear that his father would respond like this, but his father nodded: "It is a mud field full of smoke and dust, and the grass has not grown, and it hurts a lot." If you don't go to a girl's house, you won't go. As for Xin'er, she couldn't go, and her name was not on the post. It's just right for you to be at home. ”
"Okay, then thank you father, and thank you to Sister Xin'er. Changning has nothing else to do, go to the eldest sister's yard to see the embroidery first, and Sister Xin'er will go over when she is empty. ”
After speaking, Rong Changning pursed his lips, squinted at Rong Xin and Aunt Xu and smiled slyly, told them that his goal had been achieved, and then got up to leave.
Rong Xin's mind was guessed by Rong Changning, blocking her heart and making her unhappy, and Aunt Xu was naturally unhappy.
And before Rong Xin could say what he wanted to say, he was blocked by Rong Changning's anger, Rong Xin sat down and had blood marks in his hands, and he wanted to kill Rong Changning, but he still had to squeeze a smile and get up to watch her leave.
Aunt Xu thought that she had done things cleanly, and she could make Rong Ling suffer a dumb loss, or call Rong Changning or Rong Ruo couldn't bear to pick everything out and come to the main courtyard to make a fuss, so that the relationship between them and Rong Chuan was stiff, but she actually underestimated Rong Changning, took the money and invited the embroidery girl to change the embroidery sample and put Rong Xin in.
Rong Xin was hating in his heart, but Rong Chuan suddenly pressed the chess pieces on the chessboard, pointed at the grievances and laughed: "Hahaha! One move away! ”
was so frightened that Rong Xin hurriedly turned around, but saw that his father was only immersed in the joy of winning the game, and he didn't have the time to look at Rong Xin and Aunt Xu's expressions.
On the contrary, he took a few more glances at Rong Changning, and when he saw that Rong Xin was angry, he pulled Rong Chuan and said: "It's because the little nephew's chess skills are not good, and my uncle should not hesitate to teach him!" ”
"You're still young, and you can't hold your breath. Don't rush, take your time. Another plate? ”
He didn't change his grievances and said with a gentle face: "Naturally, I want to have another plate." ”
"Okay, let's do another one."
In this way, Rong Xin, who was unspeakable, had an even more ugly face, and secretly squinted at the corners of his mouth twitching with resentment.
……
"Miss, you didn't see the face of the fourth lady, the appearance of forced laughter is really ugly." Xiao Dong followed behind Rong Changning happily, and was even happier than Rong Changning when he saw Rong Xin lost.
"The geese have left traces and the wind has left a voice, after doing this, it is impossible to leave no traces at all, you help Aunt Yu pay more attention in private."
"Yes."
Even if he knew that Rong Changning deliberately blocked himself with his head and did not let him go to the northern suburbs, Rong Xin still didn't dare to say anything, he kept smiling and sitting in the main courtyard with a smile, and he was also smiling when he went out, and he was also smiling when he walked to the Lugasa Courtyard, until he returned to his room, the corners of his mouth were completely lowered, and he raised his hand and threw the incense burner in front of him and smashed it on his maid Luzhu: "What is it?!" ”
"Ahh
The demure and beautiful appearance in front of the person was completely gone, and the indignation could not be sent out to his head, Rong Xin only felt that this world was unfair, and pointed to the green bamboo and asked: "I am also the daughter of the Hou Mansion, why haven't I ever gotten anything?!" ”
"Little ...... Miss, among the daughters...... Hou Ye still loves you the most. ”
"Hurt me?" Rong Xin picked up the book on the side and smashed it: "What do you mean by hurting me?!" The eldest can marry the prince, the second can marry the general, what about me? What about me?! How could my father not even take me to the spring hunt if he loved me?! ”
"Miss, you don't even know how to ride a horse...... I didn't ...... It's useless. ”
This sentence seemed to poke Rong Xin's heart, and he raised his eyes to look at Lu Zhu: "What did you say?" ”
"No ......"
"You say it again?"
Others didn't know, Lu Zhu knew from his heart how vicious Rong Xin's hands were, and he knelt on the ground with trembling legs: "Miss forgive your sins!" Ask for forgiveness! Luzhu is a rough man, he doesn't know a few big words, don't worry about my unpopular beast if he says the wrong thing, you keep me, you keep me useful! For the sake of you, I've done the work for you......"
"That's what you should!"
"Yes! Being able to do things for Miss is a blessing that Luzhu has cultivated for eight lifetimes, and it doesn't matter if Miss beats the slave or scolds the slave, as long as the Miss doesn't get angry. ”
yes, what's the use of being so angry? Thinking of this, Rong Xin settled down, sat in front of the desk and waved his hand to the green bamboo kneeling on the ground very tiredly: "Clean this up, don't let people see it." ”
"Huh."
It's not just spring hunting, before Rong Ling finished embroidering this Guanyin statue, Rong Xin was afraid that he couldn't go out of the house. During the period, whoever held a banquet and set up a banquet to invite the women in the room to eat tea and enjoy the flowers, I am afraid that there is no such thing as Rongxin.
I really don't know why Rong Changning tied himself up with them in a few words, not only did he work in vain, but he also lifted a stone and smashed his own feet, thinking of this, Rong Xin couldn't wait to tear up the handkerchief in his hand and throw it out.
But the roots of the walls of this courtyard are always unclean, and I don't know when Rong Changning quietly bought off which slut he took, listening to his movements.
Out of this room, Rong Xin is always a good daughter of her parents, an obedient and sensible sister, even if she slaps her face, she has to look at people with a smile.
Rong Changning knew her temperament very well, so he took advantage of her strength to dare not be angry or speak, and pulled her to embroider in the Lan Courtyard for several days.
Don't let you embroider serious things directly, only got a few broken handkerchiefs and sat aside to practice embroidery, and after embroidering, Rong Changning saw it and felt that it was okay to go on the embroidery frame.
But Rong Changning seemed to be deliberate, no matter what Rong Xin embroidered was like, he said no, he called it to dismantle and change it, and the material was rotten after dismantling it several times.
Rongxin couldn't bear it and punctured his hand. This will be understood in his heart, Rong Changning invited many embroidery girls, and he didn't plan to ask her to stretch out his hand at all, but he dragged her to the Lan Courtyard every day to grind, and he wanted to go to the main courtyard to find his father to complain, but he was still blocked back by Rong Changning, until his father took the son of the family and the grievances to the northern suburbs.
Rong Ling felt awkward when she saw her appearance, took the tea sent by Aunt Yu and whispered to Rong Changning's side: "In these days, you call her every day, you won't give her a temper, right?" ”
"It's also right to call her a long memory."
"It's been half a month, the spring hunt has passed, let her go?"
Rong Changning put down the teacup in his hand: "What?" The eldest sister softened? ”
"It's not." Rong Ling leaned into Rong Changning's ear and said, "I was tired and panicked when I saw her like this, and I was upset. ”
Rong Changning hid his face and chuckled, he never thought of the words that came out of Rong Ling's mouth, the two of them held the teacup and laughed while looking at the gradually contoured Guanyin statue, whether it was laughing or not, Rong Xin felt dazzling.
Rong Ling also persuaded her: "Hurry up and tell her to go back, don't come tomorrow." As soon as she came, I was afraid that she would make trouble and destroy this Guanyin statue silently, which would be really bad. ”
"This is just a warning, she and Aunt Xu still burn incense and worship the Buddha, don't ask me to catch anything."
"Speaking of Aunt Xu, I didn't say anything this time."
"She's trying her best to plant people in my and Aruo's yard, and she sent me a roster last month and told me to pick an aunt to use."
"Did you choose then?"
"Nope." Rong Changning shook his head: "No matter how I choose, it is all chosen by others." It's better to dry it and ask her to send it in a hurry. When the time comes, the aunt who sent it will have to abide by the rules herself, and she doesn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary easily, what happens......" Rong Changning also leaned into Rong Ling's ear and said: "You can also splash her with a basin of dirty water." ”
"Hahaha...... You girl has a bad heart! ”
