17. The statute of limitations of foxy tricks
On the fifth day of coming to Zhuyin, the four maids performed their duties under the discipline of Jiang Mama and Tao Tao, they respected and feared the new master, and always felt that she was a kind-hearted young lady, but Tao Tao was very fierce, although they were two or two errands, but they still didn't dare to get too close to her......
At noon, when Ruolan and Yun Juan passed by the lake in shifts, they saw someone grinding wood in the shade of a tree.
On the grass in front of her was a large round tree pole, several of her thickness, the bark of which had been peeled off, revealing the white inner core inside......
Really curious about what she was doing, Ruolan boldly walked over, stood a few steps away, and asked, "Sister Taotao, what are you doing?" ”
Tao Tao's subordinates didn't stop, and glanced at the drawings on the ground again, "Make a boat." ”
"Boat?" Ruolan exclaimed, and after being shocked, she looked at Tao Tao with a look of adoration, "You are so amazing!" ”
Tao Tao dropped the tools in her hand, picked up the drawings drawn by Hua Nian and looked at them, and said to herself, "No, it's wrong again?" ”
After thinking about it, Momo sat down on the grass, picked up the teapot and poured herself a glass of water, and asked, "Is there a dock around here?" ”
Ruolan nodded, "There is a family less than ten miles to the east, is the young lady going to be a boat?" ”
Such a beautiful lake, if there is a flat boat floating on it, it is really beautiful.
Seeing that Tao Tao nodded, Ruolan couldn't help but think, Miss is really kind.
"If you're going to be fine, come with me to the dockyard?" Three pieces of wood had already been destroyed, and Momo thought it would be better to listen to the young lady and find two boatmen.
Ruolan has never gone out since she entered the mansion, she has been playful, and she immediately said yes.
The two went to Mama Jiang and said goodbye, and went out from Zhuyin.
Daji has been completely idle these days, in Yun Juan's eyes, the eldest lady is indeed here to cultivate, two days ago I went to Dongyuan to pick up things, and when I met my grandmother, she said so.
But her grandmother always warned her not to fight and win, to be careful and obedient in everything, and to be flexible in her moves and ears...... She was tired of listening to these words, only Su Yu was often with the eldest lady of the four of them, and she couldn't stand it by herself, so how could she be flexible? She didn't like to listen to these words, so she excused herself to go back to the West Garden.
Lunchtime –
Yun Juan guarded Hua Nian'er to take a nap, and she was also squinting in a daze, and after a while, she felt that someone was pushing her, so she hummed impatiently, and suddenly there was a pain in her arm, and Yun Juan woke up......
Su Yu motioned for her to be silent, Yun Juan rubbed her arm with anger, thinking to herself that if you call someone, you can call someone, how can you still do it......
"Come out and talk......" Su Yu said softly.
The two of them came out of the Zhuli Pavilion, and Yun Juan was a little impatient, "After a while, the eldest lady woke up and saw that no one was on duty to scold...... What are you calling me out for? ”
Today, it was finally her turn to serve, but Suyu still came to disturb her! It must be sincere......
"Miss told me two days ago, if there is no letter from the house, tell her, the letter arrives early in the morning on weekdays, there is no time today, it should not be sent yesterday, I will go out to buy some things later, you remember to say it to Miss for me......" Su Yu explained.
Going out to buy?
Yun Juan was envious in her heart, she hadn't been out of the yard for a long time, why could Suyu go out......
"What are you going to buy?" Yun Juan nodded and asked again.
"Miss said buy some cloth samples, huh...... Make us clothes. ”
"It's really fake!" Yun Juan was a little unconvinced, this is not the time to cut new clothes, besides, how can there be a master who makes clothes for the maid?
"It's true, the style is set." Yun Juan said and was about to turn around, "Today you are on an errand with Baishuang, remember to tell Miss about the letter, I'm leaving, ......"
Yun Juan watched her walk through the stone corridor on the water until she disappeared on the other side, still in the joy of being about to have a new dress. It turns out that the eldest lady is so generous, such a master, you have to serve well!
Thinking about it, she walked into the house......
As soon as I entered, I heard movement inside, and in the tent, Hua Nian'er sat up and yawned lazily.
Yun Juan saw that Miss woke up, and hurriedly came over to pull up the tent, "Miss woke up early, Sister Suyu came here just now, I was afraid of arguing with you, so we went out to talk......"
She explained, worried that Hua Nian'er would misunderstand herself.
Daji stepped on her shoes, and the green silk was scattered behind her head and didn't take care of it, so she walked to the table and sat down, looked at the tea cup in front of her, and said a word, "thirsty ......"
Yun Juan immediately poured water for her and continued, "Sister Suyu said that Miss wants to make clothes for the slaves? ”
Qingcha moistened her lips, and Daji put down the cup, "Well, did she say anything else?" ”
Yun Juan suddenly remembered the matter of the letter, blushed and replied, "Also, there is no faith in the house today. ”
Daji nodded, "Take the red cloak and accompany me to the Huxin Pavilion to sit for a while." ”
After coming here for five days, staying overnight on the road, and two days in Huafu, Daji calculated that the time limit of the fox charm technique was only about seven days......
Hey, it's so much weaker than before.
Sit down in the pavilion, lie on the wooden fence as usual, and throw fish under the water......
Schools of carp soon gathered, and fish of all colors gathered together to scramble to swallow their food.
Daji had exhausted the fish, and then looked down at her own reflection, her waist-long black hair swayed slightly, and a gust of wind blew, and the coolness was wrapped in the fragrance of flowers, and she shrank into a small ball......
This kind of cold incense really smells good, but it's a pity that it can't be made into incense powder, she thought.
Yun Juan saw that she didn't want to speak, and she didn't dare to disturb her, she stood for a moment, feeling cold, and really didn't think this pavilion was good.
After sitting in the pavilion for half an hour, Daji went back and asked Yun Juan to prepare a pen and paper to prepare the first letter to Hua Mi'er.
Third Sister:
Everything is fine in my new house, but the garden is a little empty, if the home is boring, the third sister can come to live for a few days, and ask my father and mother on my behalf......
At the check-in place, she thought about it and left the word "flower bamboo".
"Take it to Mama Jiang and send it today." Daji didn't even bother to close the envelope, knowing that she must be looking at it, so she handed it over.
"Yes." Yun Juan took the letter and walked out.
When he got out of the Zhuli Pavilion, Yun Juan stopped at a corner, looked around, then took out the letter, read it and stuffed it back again, and then went to find Mama Jiang......
In the evening, Su Yu and Tao Tao returned to Zhuyin on their front and back feet, and after dinner, Ruolan prepared a night snack for Hua Nian'er as usual - roast rabbit, and Tao Tao and Su Yu entered the young lady's room again.
Walking out with Baishuang, Yun Juan said a little unfairly, "I usually don't see that Sister Suyu is so good at coaxing her master to be happy, but she has the first share like this, and she doesn't take our sisters seriously......"
White Frost glanced at her, ignored her, and walked straight to the garden.
"Sister White Frost? Aren't you going back to rest? Yun Juan saw her turn the corner and shouted.
"I'll fix the flowers and plants again." White Frost Road.
"......" Yun Juan snorted in a low voice, and saw that the small kitchen was still lit in a blink of an eye, knowing that Ruolan had gone out with Tao Tao today, she saw that it was still early and there was no work, so she thought about asking.
"Ruolan?" Yun Juan smelled a smell of flesh when she entered the house, and she endured the smell and walked to Ruolan, who was squatting and making a fire.
"Sister Yun Juan, why are you here?" Ruolan saw that it was her, greeted her, and began to work again.
The rabbit has been skinned and rests on the knife case.
Yun Juan frowned to avoid the bloody things, and she stood beside Ruolan, "Where did you go to play with Tao Tao today?" ”
Ruolan lit the fire, wiped the hot sweat from her face and stood up, "We went down the dock at the bottom of the lake, and there are so many big ships in the dock!" ”
Dockyard......
Yun Juan knew that there was a dock nearby, but there were shirtless men in that place, how could a serious girl go there? Seeing Ruolan so elated, she couldn't help but feel disdainful, but she still smiled, "Really? Tao Tao took you there? What do you do at the dockyard? ”
"Buying a boat, of course!" Yun Juan's eyes were shining, she remembered the flower-shaped round boat she saw from Tao Tao, she was very excited, if she could sit on a big flower boat and float in the lake, how interesting it would be!
"Buy a boat......" Yun Juan didn't understand why she wanted to buy a boat, and they couldn't go out by boat in Xiyuan, unless the waterwheel was dismantled......
"Oops, I'll tell you!" Ruolan got up and picked up the rabbit and put the meat on the fire, "Our eldest lady has drawn two boat samples, which are the kind that you can't usually see at all, Sister Taotao showed the drawings to those boatmen, and they are full of praise for the young lady!" Tomorrow, a few boatmen will come over and start building a ship in Takein......"
"Come to Takegakure?" Yun Juan was stunned, "Isn't that all...... Outside the man? ”
That's ridiculous, isn't it?
"There are so many guards in our house, what do the boatmen have to worry about?" Seeing her face, Ruolan said nonchalantly.
She wanted to roast the rabbit quickly, and then begged the young lady to tell her about the boat......
The rabbit was hit by the fire, and soon the hot oil bubbled, and the temperature in the kitchen rose, and Yun Juan looked at the greasy and greasy and made excuses to go out.
Walking on the way back to the house, Yun Juan couldn't help but think, although the eldest lady looked normal, but the things she sent her subordinates to do were quite strange, and why did she write a letter to the house today with the name Huazhu? She'd never heard of it......
That's it, when I see my grandmother in two days, I just want to listen to her, I just hope that she will say a few words to herself when the time comes.
Ruolan put the rabbit in place, and before she entered the bamboo pavilion, she heard a burst of laughter in the house, she thought that it was talking about interesting things inside, and suddenly her heart was so hot that she pushed open the door and rushed into the house, "Miss, the roast rabbit is ready!" You're laughing...... What the...... Huh? ”
Her steps froze for a moment, her gaze stayed on a translucent little gauze dress on Hua Nian'er's hand, and then her little face quickly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye......
The gauze is nude pink, through the candlelight, Hua Nian'er's fingers holding the gauze are clearly visible, the upper half of the dress is embroidered with a pair of mandarin ducks, the hem is ruffled, and the ribbon on the shoulder is made of wide-edged soft cloth, which should be very comfortable to tie.
Ruolan stayed at the door with the rabbit, her little face was so hot that it almost exploded, she neither advanced nor retreated, neither cried nor laughed...... I didn't know what to do, and suddenly I heard Hua Nian'er say, "Ruolan came just in time, this belly pocket is small, you can give it a try." ”
