Chapter 3 I want to learn from female red
"Miss, don't be reckless, let the slave and maid come to a high place, if you fall, you will have to ask a doctor to see a doctor." She has thick skin and is not afraid of falling.
"But I've picked all the low places, and if I don't pick them high, I won't have to pick them." She wanted to make the wine as soon as possible, so that she could learn some female celebrity.
Because the young ladies in the house are all older, when they reach the age of discussing relatives, Jian Qinse, who originally did not plan to choose a son-in-law in Qinan County, is in a hurry, and her husband may be transferred back to Beijing in another year, and her daughters are fourteen or five years old but can't even embroider a handkerchief, how to marry a wife and sew clothes and shoes for her husband.
So she found a special person to teach embroidery skills, and only after returning to the capital did she have a craft to meet people and find a good relative.
Hearing that Mrs. invited the embroidery lady to come, Aunt Du, who also had a daughter, hurriedly pleaded with the master, how could she be the daughter of the same family alone.
Therefore, in addition to Yu Ruqing, there was another Yu Ruhui to learn together, which made Jian Qinse, who spent a lot of money, angry, she simply broke the jar and broke it, and pulled the always silent Yu Rusu in, one sheep is released, and two sheep are also released, she at least earns a good reputation for treating concubines well.
In this regard, Aunt Du laughed disapprerovingly, and Aunt Xue smiled bitterly in embarrassment, but the three sisters, who rarely had the opportunity to get along, often met, and they were very harmonious under the mentality that everyone didn't want to have more right and wrong, and there was no quarrel.
It's just that there is still some estrangement between the concubines, the self-proclaimed Yu Ruqing and the big-hearted Yu Ruhui have some friction, the age difference between the two is not much, it is more than four months, Yu Ruqing looks down on Yu Ruhui's small family, everything must be strong, grab the head of the sister-in-law, Yu Ruhui thinks that Yu Ruqing takes herself too seriously, and she will step on it when she sees people, if she is the eldest daughter, she will step on Yu Ruqing early, how can she show off her might.
When they compete openly and secretly, she can just ask the embroiderer to ask for embroidery skills, and quietly learn several more stitches.
Unexpectedly, she found that the embroiderer girl can embroider on both sides, and the skill is as high as a generation of grandmasters, so she studied more diligently, and after learning for more than half a year, she has achieved a small success, and can embroider flat-billed ducklings and mandarin ducks playing in the water on both sides of a handkerchief at the same time.
It's just a little more advanced double-sided embroidery is not good, if her father can really be transferred back to Beijing in the spring of next year, then she only has one year left to study, the embroidery mother said in advance that she will not return to Beijing with them, her home is in Qinan, and she wants to be with her children and husband.
It is difficult for people to leave their hometowns, and it is better to have a hometown in another country.
The same is true for the three masters of the Yu family, the qualifications of the two directors are conducive to future promotion, and there are people in the court who can operate, and it is not a problem to be promoted to another level.
The peach blossoms used in wine should be picked early in the morning, while the sky is slightly bright, the peach blossom petals are stained with dew before drying, and then put them in the basket to dry, and then drain the water after a little washing to carry out the next brewing process, the time is very tight, and the slightest sloppiness must not be done.
Yu Rusu and Qingyu carried the bamboo basket before dawn every day, and used to pick until noon before resting, and a dozen peach trees could collect more than 20 jars of wine in almost three days, and make wine in the dead of night, making money secretly without knowing it.
Now in order to learn embroidery, female red, they must get up an hour early, after picking the flowers, wash it slightly, learn embroidery skills in the morning, and even have no time to eat after school at noon, quickly put the flowers into the altar, before and after ten days to complete nearly 30 jars of peach blossom wine.
But picking flowers does not mean the end, they can rest for a while, they still have to pollinate, see the peach blossoms bear fruit, and sometimes have to do fruit thinning actions, the fruit grows big and sweet to make good peach wine, can not let the insects waste in vain.
The peach blossom forest is not big, it is located in the middle of nowhere, a whole row of guest houses is abandoned out of the forest, and a little further is a small lake with clear water quality, there is no lotus on the lake, but the water plants that bloom purple flowers grow, do not bear fruit, bloom in spring and autumn, and wither as soon as it freezes in winter.
There are fish at the bottom of the lake, abundant and fat, and the master and servant who are harsh on their daily diet often come here to catch fish and eat, and in winter they use to fish for fishing, and in other seasons they can catch fish and crucian carp with three or five half-arm-long grass carp and crucian carp, and occasionally carp and lake eels and other large fish that do not know the species, so that they can eat happily.
It has been five years since the discovery of the peach blossom forest, and the two have not seen the owner of the house, and there are only a few subordinates in the big mansion of the five entrances to take care of the front door and the front yard, and the back yards are all shelved without being like an abandoned house.
"Miss, hurry up and change your clothes, the hem and sleeves of your skirt are wet, and if you don't change them, you'll be sick again." Looking at the items purchased over the years, Qingyu smiled with relief, fortunately, God treated them well and didn't let them starve to death in the small courtyard.
In the open space in the middle of the jujube tree and the persimmon tree, others plant flowers and they plant rapeseeds, not only grow a lot of vegetables every year, but also pickle them into dried vegetables to keep the vegetables for the winter, eggplant, cucumber, cowpea, cabbage can be pickled with coarse bran, courgette, radish is cut into strips with salt and then dried, can be preserved for a long time.
There was a small stove in the courtyard, and she and the young lady would knock on the courtyard wall next door whenever they had free time, knock down the bricks that others had built the wall, smear it with boiled glutinous rice syrup, lime and mud, and build a simple stove by themselves, and build a shed on it to protect them from the wind and rain.
Because it was far away, the firewood was dry, and it was very close to the neighbor next door, so the white smoke was very faint, and no one paid attention to where it came from.
It is not easy for people to live freely, Yu Rusu is sick and unassuming, very responsible to play the role of a concubine, her mother has the heart to pick her thorn and can't find a place to start, she is too weak to be an opponent, maybe a serious illness will kill her, why do you have to do evil.
On the contrary, Yu Ruhui is a reverse teaching material, which happens to become a shield.
She loves to pinch the tip too much, she wants to grab everything with her sister, she also wants a copy of what Yu Ruqing has, and she also learns what Yu Ruqing learns, and her uncle gave three streamers of different colors, one for Jian Qinse, one for her nephew, and the other for her niece, but Yu Ruhui didn't care who sent the gift, she actually wanted to take away Yu Ruqing's piece of streamer brocade in front of Jian Qinse.
Cultivating this kind of unsparing temperament, how could there be good fruit to eat, as soon as her hand was stretched out, she was beaten with ten boards, punished with a month of grounding, and copied the "Female Commandment" fifty times.
Compared with Yu Ruhui's arrogance and ignorance of the sky, Yu Rusu's non-quarrel and non-quarrel makes people feel a lot more at ease, she is like a tree in the yard, obviously exists but does not attract people's attention, so as long as she does not jump out to find death, Jian Qinse will not take the initiative to trouble her, and now Jian Qinse's number one thorn in the eye is Yu Ruhui.
"How can you say that you are sick, we have hoarded a lot of medicinal materials, the so-called long-term illness becomes a good doctor, I don't need to see a doctor to deal with it myself." She is okay with a minor illness, what dizziness and brain fever with a decoction of medicine is fine, unlike in the past, she had to linger on the sickbed for more than half a month.
There are a lot of wild grasses such as goldenrod lily, houttuynia cordata, and banlan root in the yard, and Yurusu will pick it to dry and boil tea to drink, which has the effect of preventing wind and cold, clearing heat and detoxifying, and her problem of catching a cold as soon as the wind is also reduced a lot.
In the past few years, the medical books have been more or less effective, and she has taken care of herself with the knowledge she knows about self-cultivation, and her body, which was too sick and suffered a lot of losses, was almost raised by her, and she did not get sick again for several months, except for an occasional light cough.
"Miss, don't joke with your own body, don't take the medicine if you can, that thing is not a good thing, let's stay away from it." Qingyu said while taking a thicker dress, this weather looks warm and there is actually a little cool, the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, and the humidity is heavy.
"Butler's wife." From morning to night, she didn't stop until she fell asleep, she had to drink a glass of warm water before she was allowed to go to bed, and she didn't want to drink too much urine, she really didn't want to sleep and get up to go to the toilet again, which was quite tiring.
Qingyu lowered her eyes as if she hadn't heard, and carefully and attentively combed the young lady's hair. "For a while, Miss Don't quarrel with the eldest lady and the second lady, sit away."
"I know that I'm different from them, they have a mother to rely on, and I can only rely on myself." She laughed at herself and was used to living alone.
Before the crossing, she was also a child without parents, and the boat sank when the two went on their second honeymoon, and when they came back, they were two lifeless corpses.
