Chapter Forty-Eight: Du Ruo
"It's Sister Huadai, please take a seat."
Ruo'er saw that it was someone next to the girl, and hurriedly entertained her. Their mother and daughter relied on Mrs. Tai and the girl to make their fortunes, but they had to serve her carefully.
She is a girl on an equal footing with Liudan, and her momentum is about to catch up with the big housekeeper Linlang. Therefore, Hua Dai saw that no one had a good face, except for Linlang, no one could convince her.
Hua Dai looked indifferent as usual, "The girl called me to ask you to send money to Cao Chun." There were twenty taels of money in this baggage, which the girl had given me. ”
She has good skin, and her waist is slumped and her shoulders are stricken. Ruo'er saw that she was wearing a gold-painted bracelet on her wrist, a lake blue sweat scarf around her waist, and an embroidered sachet. It's better than the one used by Liudan, but it's comparable to Linlang.
Du's second daughter-in-law said attentively: "Got it." His family happened to live near here, and they would send him over in a moment. ”
Hua Dai said: "When I saw Cao Chun, I said a few words of greeting, and I did my part. ”
Her words were very light, and they couldn't help but be alienated.
Du's second daughter-in-law smiled: "Okay, naturally." ”
Ruo'er lifted the curtain and called the girl over, "Go and send someone to find Cao Chun and give him something." said that it was given by the girl, and let him subsidize the family. ”
"By the way, the girl is still talking about asking you to go to Yingchuan to find someone these days." Hua Dai said lightly.
Hearing her say this, it must be an extremely important person, "Who is the girl looking for?" ”
"I don't know who it is, but I just said it's a person surnamed Qin. I don't know when and which generation of domestic slaves remained. "Painting Dai disdainfully said.
Du's second daughter-in-law was slightly surprised, "But Qin Zhou? The servants of our Yiyuan have no other surname Qin except for his family. ”
"Perhaps, I don't know where he is."
She seemed to deliberately ask Qin Zhou.
"Hey, Qin Zhou, that's the person who has been here for a few lifetimes. From his father, his grandfather's generation, he was a person from Yiyuan, and after staying for decades, he was suddenly sent back to Yingchuan, maybe he felt more aggrieved. Du's second daughter-in-law said briskly.
Ruo'er smiled: "That's a stuffy gourd, he will only do things quickly, and ignore the rest." ”
"So, you knew each other before?" Hua Dai curled her mouth slightly, which can be regarded as a smile.
"Naturally, my family used to work under Qin Zhou. Qin Zhou followed Guogong in and out of the country, and was the big housekeeper of the Han Mansion back then. Whatever Lai Du and Fang Da do, no one can act according to his eyes. It's a pity that even the little guy doesn't take him seriously anymore. It's pitiful to end up in such a field. Du's second daughter-in-law sighed.
Hua Dai asked puzzledly: "Why was such a capable person still sent to Yingchuan?" ”
Du's second daughter-in-law said: "Oh, I think he is old, he has a mouthful at home, and he has no children to send him to the end, what is the top?" It is a blessing to let him go to Yingchuan to recuperate. ”
Ruo'er asked with a smile: "Suddenly let him come back, won't he be in charge of Yiyuan?" ”
Hua Dai said coldly: "I don't understand the girl's thoughts, you should just be it." If it's okay, I'll go back first. ”
"Wait." Ruo'er stopped her, "You wait first. ”
Drawing Dai glanced at her, "What's the matter?" Just say it straight. ”
Du's second daughter-in-law was secretly annoyed by the arrogance in her heart, "I haven't seen Aunt Duan for a few days, I want to ask her, can I do what I asked her for last time?" Girl, you're from over there, and you should be able to say a few words for the two of us. ”
Ruo'er stuffed the money into the palm of Hua Dai's hand, "A little wine money is not a tribute." ”
Hua Dai's face softened slightly, "How embarrassing is this?" "While prevaricating, I took the money.
If you give money, it's easy to talk, even if it's cold-faced and cold-hearted, don't you bend your waist when you see the money for buying wine?
"Our mother and sister have served my wife and aunt before, and we are barely individuals. Since the girl is the niece of the aunt, how can we not serve you? Du's second daughter-in-law accompanied her with a smile.
Hua Dai smiled: "Sister-in-law is serious, even if I am a relative of my aunt in the house, it is just a slight head and face girl next to Miss Feng." ”
Ruo'er smiled: "The last time Su Yun came in, we were negligent for a while, and we actually made her angry. ”
From that day when Su Yun was busy entering the garden, she realized that her expression was wrong. I didn't want to, but I might have been involved in the girl's business, so she temporarily suppressed the anger in her heart, waiting for the matter to be investigated, and then distinguished.
Hua Dai's face turned cold, "I said why is she suddenly angry, okay, I'll go to her and say a few good words for you, and the anger will disappear in a few days." ”
Ruo'er saw that her expression flickered slightly, and deduced that what Qing Yu said was seven points true.
So he then asked: "Girl, that day, Sister Suyun said to bring a fun one into the garden to show us, but we waited for a long time and didn't see what she said." I guess it was for Sister Dai, but I forgot about it. ”
Su Yun entered Yiyuan from the small gate to deliver things, which happened to be the beginning of April. Qing Yu told her to keep an eye on them no matter what.
Hua Dai was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "That's not fun, she fooled you." ”
Du's second daughter-in-law scolded her with a smile, "My girl will only eat except playing, don't laugh." "Hit her a few times in a pretended way.
"Ruo'er is like a little girl, they both love to play." Hua Dai finally gave a good face, "What do you want to eat, what do you want to play, say it, and I'll send it to you tomorrow." ”
Ruo'er noticed that she was relieved, and said with a smile: "Then thank you, I'm waiting for my sister's fun." ”
After she left, Ruo'er said, "Eighty percent was given to her by Su Yun." ”
Du's second daughter-in-law looked out of the curtain to see if there was anyone, and then said: "Shhh, the queen squeaks less, lest the people next to the sect hear it and spread the news." ”
Ruo'er nodded, "What about Qin Zhou?" I won't be able to find him for a while. ”
"It's okay, let the outside carry the letter to your father, he knows where Lao Qin is."
"It turns out that my mother really knows him." She thought that Du's second daughter-in-law was just talking nonsense.
Du's second daughter-in-law said angrily: "You treat your mother as empty talk? Your father used to be Qin Zhou's errand runner, and later became a doorman. Without him, there would be no your father. When I picked him up, I didn't have to kowtow to him. ”
Ruo'er only said, "Yes." ”
"Looking at it this way, there is a good chance that that thing is a trap given to the girl by those old goods, but the wife can't go back so easily." Du's second daughter-in-law is also shrewd and neat, and she will not easily offend Mrs. Zhou. "We will govern others as they would have been treated."
Ruo'er is still not at ease, if she misses, she and her mother may be kicked out. "Then I'll go back to the housekeeper and make a decision?"
"It's okay, Linlang is a crystal clear, with a lot of eyes and eyes, and thinks more carefully than us." Du's second daughter-in-law said again: "You go in through the back door of the West Courtyard, and ask the old lady if she has eaten first?" Wait until you have time to ask Linlang, you told Linlang in person. ”
