Chapter 72: Recommendation
Pumpkin dreams of studying, but her family is so poor that she can't even afford to eat, and studying is a luxury.
And the family property was occupied, the mother and son were exiled to Ningyang City, hundreds of miles away to see a lot of people's warmth and coldness, Lin Qingdai and they obviously didn't know each other for long, but they helped their mother and son wholeheartedly, not to mention taking care of them, and even thought about the way back.
couldn't help but kneel in front of Lin Qingdai, with tears on her face: "Thank you, Miss." ”
Although he is young, he also knows how to be grateful, and it can be seen that Lin Qingdai's situation is not particularly good, but Lin Qingdai is willing to help their mother and son, and is also willing to help the old people in the City God Temple.
Such kindness is worthy of his gratitude for a lifetime.
Lin Qingdai hurriedly helped the pumpkin up, and reproached: "Forget what I said, the man has gold under his knees, and your mother and son will live here with peace of mind in the future, tomorrow I will go to buy some food and come back, this yard has a stove and a well, and it will depend on Aunt Fang to cook in the future, I am estimated to be busy on weekdays, and I can't take care of these things, you just need to clean and cook every day." ”
Speaking of which, she didn't have much to do here, Aunt Fang nodded again and again, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Miss." ”
When Lin Qingdai heard the word Miss, she had an inexplicable feeling.
After thinking for a while, he said: "In the future, Aunt Fang will call me Qingdai, and the pumpkin will call me sister, don't Miss Miss call me like this, I'm not used to it, besides, I don't treat you as subordinates, you are family." ”
After wiping the tears from her face, she said, "You two are probably hungry too, this is our first day together, let's go out to eat." ”
Aunt Fang waved her hand again and again: "I've cleaned it up here, how expensive it is to eat outside, let's go out and buy some rice and noodles and come back to cook a meal." ”
She was embarrassed to eat outside, it was already very troublesome for Lin Qingdai.
Lin Qingdai didn't care about this, for her, it was also very important to have fun in time, and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't be polite, you can't buy anything outside at this time, let's go to the wonton stall at the mouth of the alley to eat a bowl of wontons, and when you give you the silver tomorrow, you go and buy everything you need." ”
The three of them went to the wonton stall at the entrance of the alley, and one of them ate a bowl of wontons and returned home.
After a busy day, Lin Qingdai was also tired, so she beckoned the mother and son to stay, and she returned to the backyard.
I got up early the next day, got dressed and washed, and went to the front yard, where I saw Qingkong and Aunt Fang talking.
"Aokura, why are you here so early?" She asked.
Qingkong said very respectfully: "The prince called me here, I'm afraid that you need help with things here, what does Miss Lin want to do now?" ”
Lin Qingdai pointed to Aunt Fang and Pumpkin and said, "You take them to breakfast, and by the way, take Aunt Fang to the vegetable market to buy what you need, this is silver." ”
took two taels of silver and handed it to Qingkong, and then said: "I'll go and ask the concubine for peace and security, there's nothing wrong with the prince today." ”
Qingkong shook his head vigorously and said, "The prince went to the palace very early, and the emperor has something to find the prince." ”
Lin Qingdai didn't think much about it, went to the palace from the small gate, and went directly to the courtyard of Concubine De.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw that the teacher was teaching the children kung fu.
Lin Xiaotong saw Lin Qingdai, and hurriedly ran forward to hug Lin Qingdai's waist and said coquettishly: "Sister, why did you go out and live alone." ”
Lin Qingdai rubbed Lin Xiaotong's head and said, "I'll go to the courtyard with me, I found a little friend for you, I can study with you, and you can live in the courtyard if you want to live in the future or live on the side of the concubine." ”
Lin Xiaotong let go of Lin Qingdai, and said with a serious face: "I want to live with my sister, so that I can protect my sister, the godmother said, my sister now lives alone outside the palace, and a girl is not safe." ”
This is what Lin Qingdai likes most about Concubine De, she can tell things clearly, and she is not the kind of person who is selfish.
Lin Qingdai also wanted Lin Xiaotong to be by her side, after all, she was a younger brother, and she still wanted to teach herself.
"You go and practice with Jiaoxi for a while, and I'll go and ask the concubine for peace."
Lin Xiaotong continued to practice boxing with Jiao Xi very well-behaved, and Lin Qingdai entered the house.
As soon as she entered the house, she saw that Mama Jin was waiting for Concubine De to wash, she waited on the side, and waited until Mama Jin left the house after serving, and then stepped forward to give Concubine De a pulse.
Concubine De looked at Lin Qingdai with a smile and said, "When you were on an errand in the palace before, you felt that those maids were diligent and didn't think carefully. ”
Lin Qingdai looked at Concubine De in surprise and said, "What do you want to do?" ”
Concubine De still said with a smile: "Mama Jin is old, and I didn't use the previous maids easily, so I wanted to find a few intimate ones." ”
Having said that, Lin Qingdai didn't understand that Concubine De wanted to sell her face.
Naturally, I thought of Qiusang and Su Ye, as well as Mama Manjing.
looked at Concubine De very sincerely and said: "The concubine also knows that I used to be just a second-class maid, and I can't compare to a big girl like Cardamom, but to tell the truth, among all the maids and grandmothers in the house, the most loyal grandmother is Manjing Niang, if you want to say that you are down-to-earth, there is nothing to be careful about, Qiusang and Su Ye." ”
She has rarely seen Mama Jin by Concubine De's side recently, and even if she is, she is only serving small things such as washing, and she is rarely as intimate as before.
The corners of Concubine De's mouth were slightly hooked, and she said, "Mama Manjing is an old man in the house, I heard that the maids below listen to Mama Manjing's words?" ”
Lin Qingdai didn't answer directly, but said: "I only know that when the maid in the house encounters unfairness, the only one who can lend a hand is Mama Manjing, and everyone doesn't listen to her, but respects her as a person." ”
Mama Manjing is just a small steward, but she has always done her best to do things for the palace, although sometimes she doesn't speak well, but she is silently good to everyone.
It's not that she's eccentric, Mama Jin is really not as good as Mama Manjing.
Let go of Concubine De's hand and said: "Concubine Gui's body is getting better and better, you can go out for a walk more on weekdays and bask in the sun more." ”
Concubine De stood up, took two steps in the room, and said, "What if I let Mama Manjing be the housekeeper of the palace?" ”
Lin Qingdai really didn't expect Concubine De to have such an idea, so she looked at Concubine De in surprise and said, "Is it housekeeper He?" ”
Concubine De Guifei thought of Steward He, and sneered: "I was sick before, and I didn't have so much energy to take care of these things, I have always been in charge of the backyard, and Sedum doesn't care about these things, Steward He has always been accepting Li Peilan's benefits, and telling her every move of the palace, although it is not an unsightly thing, but this kind of disloyal person is useless to keep." ”
