Chapter 50: Cold Dew (1)

The winter of the ninth year of Taiyuan is approaching.

On the day of the cold dew, the maids in the West Garden of Zangfu were busy.

Cai Hu Cai Yun two little girls under the command of Cai Feng moved pots of chrysanthemums around, only to hear Cai Feng will say "The girl said that she likes those pots of purple aster, to put them outside", and then said "Put them in the middle of the road, how do the girls go", and the two little girls tossed enough.

Cai Hu is a straightforward person, and he grabbed Bai and said: "Sister Cai, you should think about it, where are you going to put it, we have moved around several times, and we are also very tired." ”

Cai Feng was speechless, and said angrily: "You little hoof, our girl is too kind to others, but you are now pushing back a few pots of flowers." ”

Cai Yun saw that they were going to quarrel, so she hurriedly said, "Sister Caihu, you can rest first, I'll move it." ”

Cai Hu is not a muddy person, just quick for a while, seeing her like this, he smiled and saluted Cai Feng and said: "It's me who is lazy, Sister Cai Feng taught me that I won't dare to do it in the future." ”

Cai Feng then scolded: "It's a lazy little hoof, next time I look like this, I won't tear you." ”

After a long day of work, the chrysanthemums were finally placed.

The solar term of Hanlu is very similar to Chongyang, and the custom is the same as that of Chongyang in later generations, that is, to enjoy chrysanthemums and drink chrysanthemum wine.

Although there are a few mountains near Jingkou, Hagi Niang didn't have the heart to climb alone, so she only ordered to set up wine and drink in her yard and enjoy chrysanthemums, even if it was a festival.

Since the last ghost arrest incident, Zheng Shi blurted out a few words without checking for a while, which made her lose Zang Jun's favor, although she did not receive any criticism on the surface, everyone could see that Zheng Shi was speechless in front of the master.

Even if the Zang family is just a small family with a simple population, the subordinates are used to praising the high and the low, in addition to the Zheng family's companion Yan's mother, several useful housekeeper mothers are even more disobedient to the Zheng family, Zheng has a ghost in his heart, so naturally he can only swallow his anger and dare not have a seizure.

As Hagi Niang gets older, many of the house slaves turn to her to be courteous, the girl will marry sooner or later, and everyone saw the dowry of the Ruan family back then, and she will definitely marry with the girl in the future, and it is also a good errand to be the girl's companion.

Where there are people, there is politics, and even a small temple like the Zang family is not exempt from vulgarity.

The trade-offs between Zheng and Hagi are obvious.

No, even the best chrysanthemums are busy sending them to Hagi Niang, these are all small actions in private, and who can say a word.

The listless Cuihuan came to the West Garden to see, and was so angry that he couldn't do it, the chrysanthemums here are all kinds of colors, purple and red, which are like the chrysanthemums on his wife's side, lifeless, all of them are the most ordinary yellow.

These dogs saw the low-level people, and when they went back, they told the mistress that they would beat them with hatred!

She barely suppressed her anger, stood in front of the door and saluted, "Greetings to the girl." Hagi Niang nodded and motioned for her to come in, Cuihuan bowed stiffly, and replied: "The master mother sent the slave and maid to ask, will the girl go to the main courtyard for dinner tonight?" ”

Hagi Niang is eager to add to the Zheng family, but today her courtyard is ready for everyone to gather together, and Mother Li is struggling to cook again. She hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Can my father and mother tell me to go?" ”

Cuihuan said honestly: "Back to the girl's words, the slave maid hasn't seen the master for many days, and the master hasn't told the slave or maid anything." ”

Hagi Niang was looking at her, and when Cuihuan said the word "master", she saw that her expression was obviously loosened, and there was a faint trace of shyness and gentleness.

Hagi couldn't help but smile.

Cuihuan didn't know why, and looked at her suspiciously.

Hagi Niang got up and walked down, took her hands, stared into her eyes, and said word by word full of bewilderment: "I'll help you." ”

It was only half a cup of tea, and when Cuihuan came out of Xiyuan with a small pot of chrysanthemum wine, her mood was completely different from when she came. When will this boring and bleak day be the end, there is a great opportunity in front of me, it just depends on whether I am willing to grasp it, the discord between the girl and the lady is their business, what does it have to do with themselves? She kept comforting herself, rubbing the delicate wine jug, but her feet walked uncontrollably towards the study of the main courtyard......

In the West Garden here, Mother Li is shouting at the little girls to set up dishes and serve wine, and she is very busy.

Since Liu Jinu was already a frequent visitor in this courtyard, every time he appeared, the maids automatically blocked him, just as if he didn't exist. Only Cai Tang, every time the slave appeared, his eyes lit up, and he was the first to jump out to greet him, shushing the cold and asking for warmth.

"Sister Tang'er, look at what fun I brought you." The slave took out a crumpled little pig in his arms for a long time, which turned out to be a handkerchief given to him by Caitang, and the slave carefully folded it into a little pig and gave it to her.

Cai Tang held the little pig that represented the same zodiac as him, and he only felt that he couldn't cry or laugh. She was both pleased with his intentions and disgusted that he had returned his veil, and the expression on her face was very complicated for a while.

Hagi Niang had already seen the slave and looked at him with a smile. She wore a tunic jacket today, and her small body was already showing signs of development, and she had a delicate curvy beauty. Her wide robe fluttered in the wind, and her fair and delicate little face showed a gentle look, which looked picturesque in the evening sunset, like the Buddha mother holding flowers on the painting of the Buddha, sacred and kind.

There was a momentary loss of concentration in the slave's eyes.

It is said to be a chrysanthemum, but this chrysanthemum basically can't appreciate any beauty in the twilight, Hagi Niang is very melancholy, drinking sweet chrysanthemum brew cup after cup. Cai Tang and Ji Nu were having fun with themselves, giggling, it was a very lively scene, and it looked very dazzling through Hagi Niang's lonely eyes. The people she misses are far away, and Liyang's younger brother doesn't know what he's doing, Jiankang's ...... People who shouldn't be thinking about it should not think about it, everyone has a destiny, and everyone has a destiny, isn't it?

In the main courtyard over there, there is an undercurrent surging.

Zang Jun has been living alone in the study for several days, and he is no longer the young, self-contained teenager.

When he heard those words from Zheng's mouth that day, he couldn't believe his ears, how could this be? In order to marry him justifiably, the Zheng family actually did so many terrible things, and even Youtao was arranged by her. He couldn't believe his ears and his eyes, so when Zheng defended that he was talking nonsense in a panic, he was willing to believe her in a hurry.

It's just that he can't deceive his heart.

All these incredible things should be true, how can he be virtuous, he actually killed his wife and the woman he loves the most, why is it him?

For a while, he recalled the lingering love with Ruan when he first married, and for a while, he seemed to see a peach bright smile and gentle eyes. After those short broken fragments, what has been done for a long time is Zheng's meticulous consideration and care for himself over the years, and it is Zheng's soft face full of maternal brilliance after giving birth to his two sons.

Was he wrong? It was his half-heartedness that harmed these three delicate and beautiful women.

Cui Huan had been lingering outside the door for a while, and since Zang Jun had told him that no one needed to serve her, she stood outside the door of his study with a grin and no one asked.

She hesitated.

It's a complete all-or-nothing gamble, and there's no possibility of backing down at all.

How will she face Zheng's reproach after that? What will Cuiyu and Yan's mother think of her?

Zheng's courtyard is her little world, the place where she has lived peacefully until now. If she does such a thing, the world will no longer accept her, and if the lord does not love her and cannot shelter her from the wind and rain, she will have nowhere to go and no way out.

But what if the lord likes her!

She walked into the study with strong expectations and a determination to break the kettle rather than be crushed.

She won.

Zang Jun drank the wine unconsciously.

In a gust of wind coming in the early autumn, she was like a falling flower in front of the court, and achieved her long-cherished wish.
