Chapter 4 Worry
What's the most painful thing in the world? - Wait.
At this time, Fu Duoduo was tasting this kind of torment, she never knew that time would be so slow, a short quarter of an hour was simply longer than half a spring and autumn, especially after the mysterious white shadow happened just now, which made her wait anxiously.
The drizzle is still falling quietly, like the silver thread spit out by the silkworm girl.
Fu Duoduo stood straight and straight in the courtyard without cover, letting the thousands of filamentous drizzles wet her black hair, caressing her soft cheeks, and clinging to her thin clothes, for only the cold touch could soothe her restless heart at this time.
The breeze blows, and the willow branches full of bright green shoots sway gently and blow past Fu Duoduo's face.
Fuduoduo closed her eyes conditionally, but the tip of the bud still touched her eyes, making her uncomfortable and having to raise her hand to rub it.
With a "squeak", the courtyard door was suddenly gently pushed open, and a pair of embroidered shoes embroidered with small flowers stepped into the small courtyard.
"Peach!" Fu Duoduo screamed happily, and he didn't care about the pain in his eyes, and walked forward quickly. But when she saw the person clearly, the corners of her lips immediately drooped, and she asked vigilantly, "Are you ......?"
The person who came was a young girl wearing a light green dress and dressed very energetically, and she blessed Fu Duoduo and replied: "The slave maid is the eldest maid in front of the second aunt, Liu Ye, and the aunt and grandmother are fine." ”
"Willow leaves?" Fu Duoduo was shocked in his heart, and his mind flashed with all kinds of possibilities in an instant, but his face was as usual, and he asked calmly: "I don't know if the second aunt asked you to come...... "It won't be the second aunt who will come back and let people come over like this, if so, she can't say anything about it, but how will she explain it to the eldest lady?"
"The second aunt said that there was a shortage of manpower on my aunt's side, so I sent slaves and maids to serve my aunt and grandmother." Liu Ye half-squatted and replied with a smile on his face.
Sure enough, Fu Duoduo couldn't help frowning slightly, but quickly stretched out his brows and said, "Then the tired willow leaf girl thanked the second aunt on my behalf, and when I am healthy another day, I will come to the door to thank you." It's just that I'm used to being quiet on weekdays, and I'm afraid that I can't accept the second aunt's wishes, but the elders don't dare to resign, so it's better to come to a compromise method, and when Bi Tao is on vacation, I will ask the girl to come to help, I wonder if the girl can tell my aunt on my behalf? ”
Due to Yu Shiyi's illness and weakness, the Yu family has a good relationship, and will set up a shed in the city every month to give porridge, and the servants in the house are also very preferential, not only the monthly salary is a little higher than that of other mansions, but also a half-day rest every month. However, for Bi Tao, the day off is dispensable, because she accompanies Fu Duoduo every day, so this can be regarded as Fu Duoduo's rejection of the second aunt's kindness in disguise.
Hearing this, Liu Ye 'poofed', pursed his lips and smiled: "Grandma and Grandma really want to go with my master, the master said that Grandma is happy and quiet, and has instructed the slave maid to come over when Bi Tao is not bad or not free to take care of Grandma, you say how smart you are with my master?" ”
Liu Ye playfully joked, carefully helped Fu Duoduo into the inner room, and said with a caring face: "Although the rain is misty, but my aunt and grandmother are weak, it is better to be careful, the slave maid sees that your dress is stained with moisture, and now Bi Tao is not there, why don't you serve the slave and maid to serve you to change clothes?" ”
Looking at Liu Ye, her smart eyes flashed with a smile, Fu Duoduo was troubled for a while, and the second aunt must have come prepared, no matter how she refused, she would definitely think of a way to let herself accept her person. But what is she? I have no power and no power, is it necessary to bother her like this?
Calculate the time, Bi Tao should be coming back, I don't know if the news she inquired about can help her solve her doubts?
"Then there's Miss Lauliuye." Now that Fu Duoduo is already difficult to ride a tiger, she can only take one step at a time, and let Liu Ye serve her with peace of mind, otherwise she may cause some turmoil.
"Grandma is polite." As she spoke, Liu Ye followed Fu Duoduo's direction to open the cage and take out her clothes, and when she saw that the cage was full of old clothes, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes.
She didn't understand why the second aunt wanted her eldest maid to come over to serve this aunt who had been lying on the sickbed for a long time, and was not favored by the eldest young master and left to fend for herself, and came so suddenly, after returning from the visit of the eldest lady, she hurriedly found herself on vacation and let herself come here, and repeatedly told her to pay attention to this aunt.
Liu Ye couldn't help but look sideways at Fu Duoduo, who looked at the courtyard from time to time, and what the second aunt said at that time came to mind.
"Willow Leaf, how many years have you followed me?" The second aunt leaned crookedly on the beauty couch, squinted and enjoyed the little girl's appropriate pinching, and asked lazily.
Although I don't know what the second aunt meant, Liu Ye still said respectfully: "Back to my aunt's words, the slave has been serving you for eleven years since I can remember. ”
"Well, I didn't expect it to be so long, and the days go by so quickly. Think about it, I have also changed from a young girl to a woman's family. Alas, the years have gone by, you have become a big girl from a yellow-haired girl, and you are becoming more and more standard. The second aunt opened her eyes, looked up at the grass-green Chengchen and said with feeling.
"How can a slave compare to your beautiful and moon-like appearance, aunt? Slave maid ......" As soon as Liu Ye heard the second aunt say this, she immediately flattered and flattered herself, belittleing herself as much as possible, but before she could say the words, she was interrupted by the second aunt waving her hand, "Okay, I'm tired of hearing your words." I'm looking for you tonight because I have an important matter for you to do, would you like to? ”
Liu Ye didn't want to kowtow and bow, and said: "You just command, needless to say one, even if it is ten, the slave and maid are willing." ”
"Hmm." The second aunt waved her hand to let the maids and women who were waiting beside her go down, beckoned Liu Ye to step forward, and said, "Actually, it's not a difficult thing, it's just that you will serve at Fu's side for a few days." ”
Liu Ye looked up in surprise, puzzled.
Could it be that the second aunt wants to send herself away?
The second aunt explained: "You know, since I entered Yufu, my stomach has been very unhappy, and there has been no movement at all, and now it is past the best period for women to give birth, and this life is like this, but, but your willow leaves in their prime are different." As she spoke, the second aunt's well-maintained Qianqianyu fingers slid back and forth on the willow leaf's creamy little face, and finally gently pinched her small chin, gently blew a mouthful of fragrance on it, with a bewitching voice, and said, "You, willow leaf!" Do you want to be willing to be a slave and a slave for the rest of your life? ”
"Slave maid ......" The corners of Liu Ye's mouth twitched, and she wanted to refute the words of the second aunt, but she was very powerless, after all, who doesn't want to live high.
Seeing this, the second aunt smiled lightly, but it made Liu Ye feel furious.
"In that case, you should do what I want, and you can't be pushed back by the Fu family anyway, otherwise you will be given the first place by the other rooms, but don't blame Aunt Ben for not pulling you, understand?"
Liu Ye nodded ignorantly.
"And follow Fu Shi's side, study hard, she can live until now, it is enough to show her ability, and by the way, touch her blessings, if you have that life, maybe you can also block the evil spirit of the eldest young master's wife......"
"Yes." Liu Ye replied respectfully, and there was a raging fire in his calm eyes. It's just that although she already understands the intentions of the second aunt, she still can't figure out why she values Fu Duoduo so much.
Liu Ye couldn't help but casually pick out a washed and faded skirt, came to Fu Duoduo, and looked at her carefully, trying to find out some characteristics that were different from others from her ordinary face, but no matter how she looked, she came to only one conclusion - her skin was really different from those aunts, and she had been hiding in the house for more than half a year, and she couldn't get white.
Could this be her unique ability, or blessing?
"Miss Willow, what's the matter with you? Or do I have something on my face? Why are you staring at me in a daze! Fu Duoduo asked with a dry smile, anyone who was looked at by others with strange eyes was very uncomfortable, not to mention that she was now worried about Bi Tao, who had not yet returned, and her sensitivity was a little higher than usual.
After Fu Duoduo said this, Liu Ye came back to his senses, shook off the clothes in his hand, and explained unhurriedly: "The slave maid saw that you frowned and pondered from time to time, and looked at the courtyard door, and guessed whether you were thinking about the eldest young master, auntie. Liu Ye served Fu Duoduo to change his wet clothes, glanced at Fu Duoduo's subtle expression from time to time, and said with relief: "Auntie, don't worry, the eldest young master Ji Ren has his own natural appearance, and the return from seeking medical treatment this time must be very smooth." ”
Fu Duoduo was surprised, what is this! How can I worry about the husband I have never met, the reason why she is like this is that she is worried about Bi Tao who has not returned for a long time. Of course, she couldn't say this explicitly, but she just snorted perfunctorily twice, which was considered to deal with Liu Ye.
Seeing Fu Duoduo's casual reply, Liu Ye was very unhappy in his heart, which is the attitude that he should have as someone else's wife and concubine! If it were her, I would like to worship my husband every day, but that's fine, hum! When that day comes, it will save her energy to deal with her.
Fuduodo sensed Willow's change, but it didn't matter to her. Now, as time went by, her heart became more and more uneasy, and bad thoughts kept flashing in her mind, which made her heart very anxious.
"Auntie, aunt......" Just as Fu Duo was so entangled, there was a sound at the courtyard gate, and before he saw anyone, he heard a sweet voice.
Listening to this voice, Fu Duoduo is very sure that it is definitely not her family's Bi Tao, and he can't help but sigh slowly, and secretly slander in his heart, it won't be someone who will send it to serve me, I don't know when I will go from a pile of frozen shit to a hot fragrant dumpling.
