Chapter 64: Mother and Daughter (1)
If you want to say that in this homecoming, the person who loves and even dotes on the eldest lady the most must be the eldest young master's return to the uncle. In fact, this pampering and doting is mostly mixed with guilt and atonement. Ten years ago, the Lantern Festival was to take his young sister out to see the lanterns, he was also young and lively, who knew that when he turned around, his sister was taken away by the damn man's teeth.
This incident once became a nightmare for him to be extremely painful and guilty, until he returned to Chu Yu himself four years ago, he decided to make up for the mistakes he had made, and almost responded to all the requests made by Yu'er.
"Big brother, my mother asked you to send me back, but why didn't you talk to my sister all the way?" Gui Chuyu pursed his lips and said unhappily.
Gui Bonian frowned tightly on the way, as if he had a lot on his mind, and when he heard Gui Chuyu speak, he stopped.
looked at her with a little reproach, and only looked at Gui Chuyu with a little weakness in his heart: "Big brother, what's wrong, why do you look at me like this?" ”
"Why are you pretending to be drowning when you know how to water?" Gui Bonian asked slowly, a few years before Yu'er came back, he was afraid that Yu'er would have an accident in the future, so he taught Yu'er a little kung fu, horseback riding and swimming, which only their brothers and sisters knew, and others didn't even know about Wu's.
Gui Chuyu's breath stagnated, and he immediately looked at Gui Bonian pleadingly and said, "Big brother, I want to teach that little girl a lesson, who let her push me into the water...... I didn't mean to lie, big brother, just forgive me. ”
Gui Bonian still frowned and said: "A maid has made a mistake, and if she gets rid of it, what's so difficult!" What you shouldn't do in this matter is to worry your mother, I think my mother has been tired and sick for you these days. ”
"I didn't mean it, big brother, don't be angry, and don't tell your mother, okay?" Gui Chuyu tugged on the sleeve of his eldest brother and begged.
He has always been a calm and majestic character, very strict with himself and others, all the slaves and maids in the courtyard are not afraid of him, even the second young master does not dare to make too many times in front of him, but the only one is unable to do it in front of this Gui Chu Yu.
"Hey, big brother is also for your good, for the sake of a maid, you pretend to drown and suffer, is it worth it?" Gui Bonian sighed, he couldn't understand this sister more and more.
Gui Chuyu smiled in her heart, how could it not be worth it, she won a good name for herself, and let Diancui's girl see clearly that her life was in her own hands.
"Big brother's maid is not simple, if you meet it in the future, big brother must not be confused by her." Gui Chuyu hurriedly said again.
"You," Gui Bonian said helplessly: "It's just a little girl, what can I be confused by her, what do I think about every day." ”
"No, you can't let her get close to you anyway!" Gui Chuyu is simply arrogant and unreasonable, she has a ghost in her heart in this mansion, and she will inevitably be frightened every day, only in front of this Gui Bonian, who favors her infinitely and believes in her, she dares to be unscrupulous.
"Okay, okay, big brother depends on you, let's go in quickly, don't suffer the cold at night." Gui Bonian sent her back to the courtyard, and on the way back, she was also thinking that the new little maid did not seem to be a fuel-efficient lamp, so Yu'er was so troubled, she must not be a good person.
Let's say that Wu endured the discomfort and dealt with the peony banquet, returned to the main room of the east courtyard, sat in front of the bronze mirror in a daze, and Grandma Lu sent the maid to boil some orange juice and ginger soup.
"Big lady, you don't have to be sad, Miss is young, there are some things that you haven't figured out yet, and when you figure it out, you will know Madame's hard work." Grandma Lu combed Wu's hair, and saw Wu's frowning in the mirror.
"Fourteen years old, not too young, but she is not close to me," Wu sighed and said: "This child blames me, I don't blame her, it's just that the Yue family is unpredictable, and I'm afraid that Yu'er will fall into her way." ”
"It's all to blame for the traffickers who killed that day, a good young lady......" Grandma Lu wiped her tears, the young lady was smart and well-behaved when she was young, her complexion was fairer than snow, and the little one was like a lucky doll in a painting, but it was a pity that when she was three years old, she was carried by the eldest young master to see the lanterns, and was stolen by someone's teeth.
It's just that the young lady's temperament has become difficult to figure out after she comes back, and she is not close to her own mother, but she goes to please the old lady every day, to say that the old lady loves the young son in her heart and does not like the strong temperament of the eldest daughter-in-law Wu, Wu and her are superficially friendly and passable, and some of the actions of the eldest lady are undoubtedly to sprinkle salt on Wu's heart.
"That stubborn maid grew up with Yu'er last time?" Wu suddenly remembered and asked.
Grandma Lu said yes.
Wu Shi said again, let her come over another day for me to take a look, Yu'er and I have not been close to me in the past four years, and I rarely talked about how much I suffered in the countryside earlier, so let this maid come and talk to me about it.
Grandma Lu said that she didn't understand the rules of the house, so let me admonish one or two first, and it would not be too late to come back to see my wife at that time.
Wu said with a smile, it's just a shop at the beginning, and it's not a royal family, what rules do you admonish, you just know how to be polite and sensible, do work diligently.
Grandma Lu also smiled and said, Madame, don't forget that our master is still an official in office.
However, Qing Jilang, who hung an eight-grade Qing Jilang in Zhan Shifu, Wu sighed and said, combed his hair, picked up the account book on the table and doubled it a few times, and told Grandma Lu not to forget to prepare a gift, seeing that it was about to be the Qingming Festival, and then the gifts and money to return to his hometown should be prepared and sent to the uncle in the clan.
Grandma Lu should go down and not mention it.
On the second day, Mr. Jiaoqin, who was newly invited by the Guifu, entered the mansion, and it was Wu who personally invited him to Gui Chuyu, and the first Gui Chuyu followed his brother at home and several other brothers who lived in Guifu to listen to the lecture in the West Courtyard, but her qualifications were mediocre and she couldn't keep up, after all, she was a female student, and Mr. would not delay the classes of the other brothers for her. Besides, she is not young anymore, and it is not appropriate for men to sit at the same table anymore.
So Wu Shi found another husband and taught her alone.
This side belongs to Chu Yu to see Mr., and the big girl Qiuyue and Dongxue accompany each other to serve.
This female gentleman is a very strict rule, when she was lecturing, the three maids were not allowed to get close to the young lady, and on the first day, because of the wrong sound, Gui Chuyu was beaten up.
Although Wu was distressed, he was not such an ignorant woman who would only spoil her children, so she only told Grandma Lu to prepare the best ointment to send it, and waited carefully after the young lady got out of school.
"It is said that Mrs. loves Miss very much, why did she let the teacher beat the board today," Ruju, a maid at the same level as Ruohe, frowned and sighed.
"Shut up, how can you say that, madam, be careful of being heard, your life is not guaranteed." Ruohe's big gossip eyes flashed, but he said.
Ruju pursed her lips and said, "I'm afraid, our young lady has never been close to her wife, and I don't know which one in this house." ”
"It's bad for the two sisters to say that," Diancui couldn't tolerate others saying that the Wu family was not, and couldn't help but step forward and say: "Since ancient times, it's not nonsense that a loving mother has many defeated children, Madame seems to be ruthless in doing this, but in fact, it is also for the good of the young lady." ”
Ruju glanced at her impatiently: "You've only been here for a few days, don't talk nonsense if you don't know the inside story." ”
"What's the inside story?" The maid Xiaomei also came to join in the fun. As soon as everyone saw that it was Xiaomei, they were all silent, and Xiaomei couldn't help but stomp her feet angrily.
"You don't chew the root of your tongue, and if Miss knows, you should be angry again." Ruohe pointed to Xiaomei and said, here she came to Diancui's side, took out a handful of pumpkin seeds from her waist, and gave Diancui half of it, and she was half of herself.
She is here to apologize for the fact that she followed everyone to crowd out some emeralds a few days ago. It wasn't her intention to do that, after all, she and Diancui had also established a little deeper than others on the road from Henan Mansion in Qingping County. But at that time, no one dared to talk to her more when Diancui provoked such a incident, for fear of making the master unhappy, but fortunately, Miss Yesterday also understood her attitude, and seemed to be blue-eyed to this girl from the countryside.
"Sister Ruohe, why do they say that Madame and Miss are not close?" Diancui asked slowly, sipping melon seeds.
Ruohe looked around, leaned close to her ear, and whispered: "It's not that Madame and Mademoiselle are not close, but that Mademoiselle and Madame are not close!" I am the son of the family in this house, others don't know that I know, since the young lady was recognized back to the house four years ago, the lady hugged her and cried into a tearful person, since then what delicious food and good clothes are close to our lady, but the young lady does not seem to like to be with the lady, and moved to her own yard early, not to mention, except for a little greeting on weekdays, and does not often go to the lady's yard. ”
When Diancui heard this, the hand holding the melon seeds couldn't help but tighten, and asked again: "How did the young lady get recognized back in the house back then?" ”
"I don't know much about this, some say that the young lady came to the door by herself, and some say that the eldest young master found the young lady." Ruohe said with a smile, our eldest young master is the person who loves the eldest lady the most in this whole house.
Dian Cui couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his heart, he could enter the mansion, and he only saw Mrs. in a hurry, but unfortunately he never had the opportunity to see the master and the two young masters, Dian Cui asked again: "It is said that there are two young ladies in our house, but is it true?" ”
Ruohe couldn't help but be surprised, looked at her suspiciously, and stopped talking, there were two young ladies in the house, she had heard her mother talk about it, but she had never seen another young lady, and this matter somehow became a taboo in the house, and how did she know about this point that Cuijiang would not come from the countryside for a few days.
Seeing her appearance, Diancui knew that she had said something that should not be said, so she immediately said I slept in the kitchen that day, and I occasionally listened to a few old grandmothers in the house.
The old grandmother in the kitchen was also talkative, and Ruohe pouted, and there was no longer doubt in her heart.
At noon, the eldest lady with swollen palms returned to her own yard with a swollen palm, Qiu Yue waited for her to change her clothes, Dong Xue took a soft fox fur mat and put it on a small table, Gui Chuyu frowned and said that she didn't like the smell of this fox skin the most, and changed the rabbit fur, Dong Xue's scalp was tight and hurriedly went to get the rabbit fur mat.
Gui Chuyu rested his palm on the hair cushion, Ruohe entered the house, took out the ointment, and said with a smile, Yingying said This is sent by Mrs. Lu Grandma, and it is said that it will not hurt if you apply it. Saying that, he was about to wipe it closely, Gui Chuyu frowned again, and Qiu Yue next to him immediately said Let it go first, Ruohe looked at Miss again in confusion, and Miss didn't speak, just didn't know what to do, Qiu Yue dodged the medicine bottle in her hand and threw it on the couch, and said impatiently Go down first.
Ruohe's eyes suddenly turned red, and he didn't know what he had done wrong, so he lowered his head and withdrew from the room, and heard that the eldest lady had already wiped away her tears and said, Go! Let the dotted green in.
Ruohe came out with red eyes, startled Diancui, who was waiting outside the door, and was about to ask what was wrong, Ruohe lowered his voice and said that Miss told you to go in.
Diancui saw that her face was not good, and she didn't know what was going on inside, so she had to go in hard, and blessed Chu Yu, but she was still stunned when she heard Chu Yu's hateful words, and the people in the countryside were stunned, and they didn't want to apply medicine to me.
Diancui said yes, so he stepped forward quickly, picked up the medicine bottle on the couch, put it on a piece of fine gauze, and carefully smeared it on Gui Chuyu's hand.
"This ointment was given by Madame," Gui Chuyu's yin and yang weird voice sounded from the top of Dian Cui's head, "She should be very good to me, but I can't forget the suffering I suffered when I was a child, and I can't help but complain about her in my heart, you said that if you were to change to you, would you also complain about her?" ”
