Chapter 42. Door
On the second day, after breakfast, Xi Tongfang sent Ah Yun to the school, followed by Ah Mu and Qing Song.
Xi Feng, who was squatting in the yard, looked up at the back of the departing green pine, his eyes flashed, and he turned his head again and used two wooden sticks to catch the big green worm on the strawberry leaves.
Mother Liu walked out of the stove house and said, "Miss, there are two more mothers-in-law in the family, and you will ask them to do this work of catching insects. ”
Xi Feng neatly picked up a big green worm with a small head emerging from under the leaves, put it in the jar, and smiled brightly, "My hands are not expensive, it can hold both embroidery needles and kitchen knives." "You can also kill people with a knife.
"Besides, catching insects is a light job, it doesn't have to be hard, and it can be funny, I like it."
She likes to watch the big green worm, struggling desperately under her wooden stick, and she can't break free from her coercion, this kind of process that can control its life and death, she likes it very much.
I like it from the bottom of my heart.
Ruan Shi walked out of the house, still holding a quilt in his hand, and when he heard the words, he said, "You child, how old are you, you are still like a child, other people's ladies will be frightened and scream when they see insects, you are good, and you still play with insects for fun." ”
"That's because they're timid."
"Yes, yes, as long as you are bold, I think, if I don't care about you anymore, you will go to heaven."
"Madam, since Miss likes it, let her make it, this strawberry will bloom in a few days, I don't have to be bitten by insects, there are few fruits, Miss loves strawberries the most." Mother Liu couldn't see that the young lady was being blamed by her wife, so she was busy talking and helping to make peace.
Ruan Shi deliberately said with a straight face, "You are used to her, you are used to her, and you will go to your mother-in-law's house in the future to see if she can catch insects." "Not everyone is like their second room, they will grow vegetables and strawberries in the yard.
"Madam, flowers and plants also grow insects." Mother Liu walked over and reached out to take the quilt from Ruan's hand, "Madam, what about Xiangqiao, why don't you let Xiangqiao dry the quilt, why are you still doing it yourself, now there are many people in the family, if there is anything in the future, Mrs. can tell Xiangqiao to do it." ”
"Xiangqiao and Vanilla are washing clothes in the backyard, there are more people now, and in the future, the clothes at home can't all be washed by Vanilla alone, Xiangqiao also has to help wash them together."
Xi Ming and Xi Yun were taken care of by a small servant, and Xiangqiao was transferred to take care of Ruan's family.
Ruan was born in a village girl, she has been diligent since she was a child, and she is used to doing family work, and after marrying into the Xi family, she has always been called by Cheng as a maid.
She does everything she can do, and she is never lazy.
After the family was separated, she became the wife of the house, but there were few people in the family, and Ruan was a diligent person, and there was some work that she could do, she would do it herself, and she would not keep it and wait for the maid to do it.
Mother Liu helped Ruan Shi dry the quilt together, and was about to take the vegetable basket to the backyard to pick the vegetables for lunch, when she heard someone knocking on the door outside.
Ruan, who was about to go back to the house to work as an embroiderer, paused and instructed Liu's mother, "Go and see who is coming." ”
"Yes, ma'am."
Mother Liu answered and went to open the door, only to see three strangers standing at the door, one dressed as a manager, the other two little maids dressed, and behind the three of them, there was a carriage full of things.
Seeing this scene, Liu's mother was stunned and asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
