Chapter Eighty-Three: Those Friendships

Wu Shi glanced at Wu Yi'an, who was still blindly mixed at this time, with a little reproach, and looked at Yuan Zhiheng, who suddenly spoke up, with some puzzlement, and asked Xiang Dian Cui for a long time: "Are you willing to go to Wu's house?" ”

Diancui didn't hesitate at all this time, and said, "The slave is unwilling." ”

Wu nodded and said: "Then the girl who is still in our home, from today onwards, will go to the embroidery room, Aunt Xing will also go to the eldest brother to say hello, and the work of changing hairpins will also be done first. ”

"Yes, ma'am." Diancui deserves to be simple, so that people can't see the slightest unwillingness, Wu nodded secretly in his heart, this maid is a person who can bend and stretch to do great things.

In the end, she agreed, and Gui Chuyu proudly glanced at the dejected second brother, and when she was transferred to Wu Yi'an, who was next to the second brother, she was hurt by his disdainful and disgusted eyes, and suddenly remembered An Peiqing's gentle and petty intentions in her heart. Sitting next to Wu Yi'an was her fiancΓ© Yuan Zhiheng, and Gui Chuyu never paid attention to this person.

Yuan Zhiheng is not as good as the cousin of the Wu family, and his temperament is not as gentle and charming as An Peiqing, not to mention the poor and white life experience. I don't know why the Wu family wants to match him with himself, and he is also worthy?!

Yuan Zhiheng seemed to feel her disdainful gaze, and his eyes became more and more indifferent, so that people couldn't see or guess his thoughts, and occasionally his gaze at Shanggui Chuyu was also cold and unpredictable, only to teach Gui Chuyu's heart to beat and dare not be so rude anymore.

Diancui got the order of the lady, and then returned to the second young master to serve, the small episode did not disturb the progress of the dinner, and then the shopkeepers sent from the shops around the country came to congratulate the birthday, Wu looked at these people in their hearts inevitably excited and proud, and drank a few more glasses, and the master saw that she was happy, and he no longer disliked the slippery and coppery smell of those shopkeepers.

Yurou, who was standing with Diancui, pulled her sleeves worriedly, the old woman in the embroidery room was not a good stubble, she was ruthless, there was once a little maid in the embroidery room who provoked her because of a little thing, and she was whipped more than a dozen times, and her appearance was ruined. Diancui is mild-tempered, and if he goes, he will be oppressed. Diancui knew that she was worried, and whispered: "Sister Yurou, don't worry, I'm fine." ”

I didn't expect to live again, this embroidery room still has to go, in the last life she was oppressed by the mother-in-law, and inadvertently knew some of the dirty things of the mother-in-law, but unfortunately she was cowardly at the time, and in this life she should have used those handles. It's just that what she is most reluctant to do is Aunt Xing, who has always been cold and warm-hearted, is too good to her, better than anyone else to her, Diancui is very greedy for that kind of warmth. The thought of not being able to be in one place in the future made Diancui's heart feel uncomfortably tight.

But she couldn't help it, if she didn't go to the embroidery room, Gui Chuyu didn't know what way to deal with her, and she might even threaten the people in the small kitchen of the West Courtyard, so she had to go.

"Where did you run away from your cleverness on weekdays, I really don't know if you are really stupid or stupid, if you really don't want to go, she can't force you to go, do you know that the mother-in-law in the embroidery room is not your Aunt Xing!" The second young master couldn't hide his anger, and when Dian Cui poured wine for her, he scolded Dian Cui softly because he hated iron and steel: "Are you so afraid of her? Isn't it just a deed of sale/identity, and the master will give her three times the silver to buy it! ”

Dian Cui looked at the second young master who was upset for her, her heart was warm, and she persuaded him again: "The second young master is not angry, and don't worry about Dian Cui, the person in the embroidery room, the slave is not afraid." ”

The voice is still soft and gentle, but the certainty in the tone gives people a strong sense of confidence and even contempt. I only heard Wu Yi'an squinting his eyes and looking at this young little girl, looking at this bearing is not just a maid, but reminds him of his aunt when he was a child.

What are you thinking? Wu Yi'an shook his head in shock by his ridiculous idea, no matter how she is, she is just a little maid, how can she compare with the aunt of the heroine among the women who is now the eldest lady who has returned home.

After the gift was completed, the dinner was also withdrawn, and the lord Gui personally ordered two more plays, and everyone moved to the stage in the courtyard.

After finishing the work at hand, Dian Cui left the courtyard, intending to talk to Aunt Xing.

Out of the courtyard, I walked to the verandah where the vine flowers bloomed.

"Why don't you want to go to Wu's house with me?" It turned out to be Wu Yi'an.

Diancui bowed his hand, and said for a while: "Because, there are people I can't give up when I return home." ”

Wu Yi'an said with a smile: "It turned out that she was still a little girl who valued love and righteousness. ”

Wu Yi'an thought that what she couldn't give up was the rain and the little maids who were good friends with her as the second young master said.

Dian Cui didn't explain more, saluted again, and walked forward with his head down.

"Hey," Wu Yi'an called lazily: "If you encounter any difficulties, you can go to Wu's house to find me, if I am in a good mood, I may be able to help you." ”

Diancui smiled and said: "Young Master Xie, it's just that Diancui doesn't allow you to be in a good mood or when you're in a bad mood. ”

Wu Yi'an also smiled and said, "You can try it, how do you know when I'm in a good mood if you don't try." ”

Diancui stopped talking and left quickly.

"Hey, you're really from the country?" Wu Yi'an shouted from afar behind, he was full of interest in this little girl now.

Dian Cui would not answer such a boring question, and since she went to the small kitchen in the west courtyard, Aunt Xing was still busy in the kitchen.

Aunt Xing saw Diancui come in, she didn't speak, she just lowered her head and was busy with the work in her hands, and a white old hen was chopped on the board, and then the chicken chopped into large pieces was thrown into a clay pot, added fine green onions, ginger slices, and rice wine, scrubbed for a while, and then threw it into the boiling water of the big iron pot......

She was hanging a pot of old chicken soup, and she didn't say anything, because she didn't know how to open her mouth all of a sudden, she stepped forward to help take out the blanched old hen with a fence, put it in the water and wash it, and handed it to Aunt Xing.

Aunt Xing picked up another pot and threw a few pieces of dry firewood, and the fire immediately turned up, cooking the old chicken on a high fire, and looked at the raging flames in the stove, and was stunned.

The fresh aroma of chicken soup wafted to the entire small kitchen, and Aunt Xing switched to tree branches, and the fire became smaller.

"That Yan Pozi is not a good person, if you don't want to go, you won't go...... The eldest lady will not do anything to me. Aunt Xing's voice was gentle and heavy, like this pot of chicken soup gradually getting thicker.

Diancui's nose was sour, and tears fell to the ground.

"You're useless, why are you crying?" Aunt Xing's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but redden.

Diancui wiped away her tears, slowly moved to Aunt Xing's side, leaned her little head on her shoulder, and said, "I'm not afraid of her." ”

Aunt Xing sneered, but she didn't shake Diancui's head off.

"How old are you, and how many vicious people have you seen? When the time comes, people will be skinned and cramped, and they will not dare to squeak. ”

"How can I be so cowardly," Diancui couldn't help but pout unconvinced.

Aunt Xing sighed and said: "If you have to go, I won't stop you, if that Yan Pozi really makes a mistake, you will come back, I have saved some money here, and when the time comes, I will go to Mrs. to transfer your slave status, and then we will go to the street to sell wonton cakes!" Life is more free and comfortable than here. ”

"Good! That's it. Diancui immediately replied crunchyly, and Aunt Xing had a satisfied smile on her face.

Diancui simply hugged her thick and fat waist and said softly: "No matter where you are, I will be filial to you, don't worry." ”

"Go, go, whoever wants you to be filial, thank God if you don't find me trouble." Aunt Xing blushed a little and pulled Diancui's paws away, got up to stir the old chicken soup in the pot, but she was very happy in her heart.

Aunt Xing told her thousands of instructions for fear that Diancui would be oppressed by the embroidery houseman, and she chattered for more than an hour before letting Diancui go back to the front yard to rest.

Diancui yawned and went back to the front yard, wanting to say hello to Ruohe, but heard those maids say that Ruohe had committed a crime and was severely punished by the eldest lady.

"What! Punished by the eldest lady? What happened, and where is she now? Diancui asked anxiously while holding the maid.

Because Diancui is responsible for changing the hairpin for the big guys, the maids and women are willing to make friends with her, and when they see her asking and know that she is good with Na Ruohe, they talk about the truth of the matter.

It turned out that Ruohe suddenly fainted for some reason today, and actually watered the begonia tree in the eldest lady's yard with boiling/hot water.

"How is that possible? Sister Ruohe wouldn't do anything like that. Dian Cui didn't believe it.

A little maid listened: "But this is what the eldest lady saw with her own eyes, and this matter is also a coincidence, the eldest lady went back after listening to the play, and happened to see the hot air under the begonia tree." There is no one else in the courtyard, only Ruohe is sitting stupidly in the courtyard and eating melon seeds, the eldest lady is angry, so she asked Ruohe to tie up, or Ruohe and her mother knew, went to beg bitterly, so as to avoid beating, at this time was stripped of his coat, kneeling in the outer courtyard to punish kneeling. ”

Diancui heard a sudden burst in his heart, the scream was not good, and he ran to the outer yard with his legs, although Ruohe has a big temperament/big grin, but he is also a tempered person, and he is a child of the house, so he has a pride of herself. Now that she has been stripped of her clothes, how can she bear this humiliation.

The outer courtyard is where the men of the family and the groom live, some of these men are vulgar, and they are good at making some jokes about those delicate little maids at the bottom, and now they see a little maid who has been stripped of her coat and is kneeling at the door of her own courtyard, and she is suddenly interested.

When Diancui arrived, he saw that those men were talking about meat in his mouth around Ruohe, who was kneeling on the ground, but Ruohe was already trembling, his face was like ashes, he was biting his lips and his eyes were red.

Picked up a stick that beat the dog, and rushed towards the pile of people like a gust of wind, waving the stick and pumping.

A few men were unprepared for a moment and were knocked to the ground by her, and someone reacted, stepped forward and snatched her stick/sub, and surrounded her and Wakahe.

Dian Cui looked at these people who were scolding and scolding their sleeves vigilantly, and at the same time looked worriedly at Ruohe, who had become numb and dead.

"Stop!" A loud voice sounded, and Diancui was surrounded in the middle of the man and didn't know who it was, but Ruohe, who had been kneeling expressionlessly, was excited, and then began to tremble.

The person who came was really Tong Li, I saw him fly forward and kick, and a few old punches, and those men were beaten like straw bales.

As Tong Li approached, Ruohe suddenly cried with a "wow", hid behind Diancui, and said let him go, let him go, I don't want him to see me like this.

"Brother Tong," Dian Cui had to step forward to stop him.

"I won't go over," Tong Li glanced at Ruohe, who was trembling behind her, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and then he took off his robe with a "swish", threw it to Dian Cui, and said that the girl was annoyed to put it on her, and then first glanced at those people to warn, and then turned around and strode away.

Those people knew that Tong Li was the second young master's henchman, and they actually came to relieve the siege of these two little maids today, so they didn't dare to make another mistake, and went back to their rooms in embarrassment.

Ruohe put on Tong Li's clothes, shrunk in this unfamiliar and safe robe, and looked at Tong Li's proud back, Ruohe's face was slightly bloody.

"You can't protect yourself, why bother to care about my life or death." Ruohe said suddenly.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it for a while." Diancui was blunt.
