Chapter 16: Dog eats dog
Last night, Yingchun slept well, never so well. After eating in the morning, Yingchun felt that the breakfast was very sweet.
After the meal, the eldest girl Yuling, the two aunts and Tongfang Shuishu all came to set rules for the Spring Festival, but Chu Jiao was nowhere to be seen. Yingchun and a few of them gossiped a few words, and were about to send everyone back, but there was a very loud laughter in the courtyard.
Yingchun was about to ask Xiu Tang and the others, but Chu Jiao, who was still a little injured on her face, walked in. Chu Jiao came in and glanced at everyone, and finally looked at Yingchun and blessed: "Say hello to Mrs." Chu Jiao's eyes were fixed on Yingchun's face.
Yingchun raised her eyebrows lightly, and said lukewarmly: "Miss Chu Jiao came by coincidence, everyone was just about to disperse." ”
Chu Jiao laughed: "I, I'm really late today, but there's a reason." After speaking, she lightly picked up the necklace around her neck and looked at everyone ostentatiously.
Aunt Chen shouted: "Fengxiang Building's new style, how can you use it?" ”
When Chu Jiao saw that there was a person who knew this, she felt that there was light on her face, and she smiled even more proudly: "Where do I have so much silver, how can I afford to buy Fengxianglou's jewelry." Chu Jiao deliberately paused, raised her hand, and everyone saw that Chu Jiao had two jade bracelets on her wrist, and when they saw their luster, they knew that their prices were expensive.
Yingchun pinched her chin lightly, looked at Chu Jiao, and still didn't speak.
Chu Jiao sneered: "Madam, don't you want to know where my jewelry came from?" ”
Yingchun also gently supported his chin with two fingers, and said with a smile: "What the master promised you, do you need to say this?" Chu Jiao, what else do you have to tell me, just say it. You're not constipated, what's the point of saying it paragraph by paragraph. ”
The first time Chu Jiao heard someone say this about herself, her face was flushed, she gritted her teeth and said, "Madame, listening to my words, I guess I won't be so happy." Well, I'll be Mrs. Cheng, this jewelry was asked by the master to go to Fengxiang Building to choose, I just came back from picking out jewelry, so it's late. And ......" Chu Jiao stretched her voice and looked at Yingchun defiantly: "The master also promised me to promote me as an aunt in a few days, and it will be higher than other aunts." ”
As soon as Chu Jiao's words fell, someone broke off and shouted: "Nonsense! ”
It was no one else, but it was Aunt Chen, I saw Aunt Chen's face was full of sorrow, and she pointed at Chu Jiao and shouted: "You are higher than other aunts?" Joke, you're just a girl, you're our slave, with your status, the lord will never raise you as an aunt, even if you become an aunt, you are also the lowest-ranking aunt! ”
Chu Jiao saw that it was Aunt Chen, and smiled: "Who should I be, it turned out to be Aunt Chen." Why can't I be higher than the other aunts? I have the favor of the master, and I am stronger than you. After Chu Jiao finished speaking, she looked at Yingchun, and saw that Yingchun's face remained unchanged, and she was annoyed, so she continued ruthlessly: "The master still allows me, and in the future, if there is no one in the lady's position, he will straighten me out." ”
"Phew!" Aunt Chen scolded: "You really don't know how many pounds and taels you have, but it's just the cheap maid we call and drink, and when you say such things, you are not afraid that the wind will flash your tongue, and you still want to be a lady and do your daydream." ”
Chu Jiao didn't show weakness: "Why can't I be a lady, can you be a lady?" You're just the sister of a concubine who died in the past, what kind of identity is the waist of the kidney, when you are the sister of the lady in this house, you can straighten it out, it's really funny. If you can be a lady, why didn't the lord help you back then? ”
Aunt Chen's details were all shaken out by Chu Jiao, and Yingchun was stunned, it seems that Aunt Chen and Sun Shaozu really have something to say. Yingchun looked at Aunt Chen with interest, it turned out that Aunt Chen was the sister of the previous aunt.
Aunt Chen only felt that everyone's eyes were focused on her, and her face turned pale. She hates others mentioning these things the most, but Chu Jiao, a little hoof who just came to the house, slapped people in the face.
Chu Jiao saw Aunt Chen's pale face, and said with a smile: "You are just the same as me." Moreover, you are still a girl for the master, and the qualifications for correction are not enough. There is a year and a half, and I can also give birth, maybe I am still a young master. ”
Aunt Chen stabbed Chu Jiao in her sore spot when she heard Chu Jiao's words, and she couldn't care much about it, so she stepped forward quickly and raised her hand to slap Chu Jiao.
Aunt Chen was still angry after the slap, so she stepped forward and tore up with Chu Jiao, and scolded in her mouth: "What are you, just a little slut sent by an outsider, and you dare to comment on the affairs of my house, if you don't peel off your skin today, you won't recognize your Aunt Chen!" ”
Sent by outsiders? Yingchun also learned about Chu Jiao's bottom from Aunt Chen's mouth.
When Chu Jiao saw Aunt Chen beating herself, she began to sprinkle and beat Aunt Chen to one place. Aunt Chen is half the master, and all the girls in her courtyard have stepped forward to help her aunt. And Chu Jiao was afraid that Yingchun would hit her with a copper basin again today, so she also brought a few girls over, so the two people fought together.
Yingchun didn't stop everyone, looking at the lively scene in front of him like watching a movie, and the smile was even stronger.
The people on both sides fought for a long time, and they were almost tired, and Yingchun opened lightly at this time: "Enough, it's enough, it's a fight, it's a trouble, you also have some face, what do you think of the minions?" ”
People on both sides also stopped, but they both glared at each other with hatred.
Yingchun yawned, waved his hand tiredly and said, "Let's go back, think about it, and disperse today." ”
The people on both sides hastily tidied up, retreated, and the crowd dispersed.
Xiu Tang and Si Zhu helped Yingchun back to the room, and Xiu Tang whispered: "Why didn't Madame call them earlier, what's the matter with us making such a fuss here?" ”
Si Zhu chuckled: "Sister is really a real person, don't you see, is Mrs. going to watch the play like this?" With our lady's current temperament, I see," Si Zhu peeked at Yingchun and said with a smile: "I'm afraid I can't wait for them to hit the room." ”
Yingchun scolded Si Zhu with a smile: "You little hoof, you won't think of me with some good qualities, such as my chivalrous and courageous, anti-violence and good qualities, etc., do you want me to be like that?" However, you're right. I'm thinking, tonight, 'you lords' are going to be very busy. ”
When Aunt Chen returned to the yard, she was so angry that she dropped her things and scolded the little girls. Xiangshe and the other girls were carefully by their side, and slowly unraveled Aunt Chen. Aunt Chen was so angry that she was still scolding: "What is she, she dares to treat me like this, I will never spare her!" ”
Xiangshe persuaded: "Auntie should also think about it, will the master promote Chu Jiao's cheap maid as an aunt?" ”
Aunt Chen suddenly stopped talking. Yes, will the lord promote her as an aunt? Today, Chu Jiao has torn her face with herself, she is really an aunt, won't she be right with herself everywhere? No, you must not let the master raise Chu Jiao as an aunt! I'll have to figure it out myself.
After Chu Jiao was beaten again, she was even more annoyed in her heart, and thought indignantly: It seems that all the people in this mansion want to step on her head, if it continues like this, I am afraid that there will be no place for her to stand again.
When Sun Shaozu returned to the mansion, as soon as he entered the mansion, he was invited by the girl sent by Aunt Chen. Sun Shaozu was very puzzled, and when he saw Aunt Chen, he was startled. When Aunt Chen saw Sun Shaozu coming in, she covered her face with a veil and cried.
Sun Shaozu didn't know what the reason was, so he immediately asked, but Aunt Chen refused to say, Sun Shaozu called the incense house, and only then did he know what happened this morning. Sun Shaozu frowned, Chu Jiao was a little arrogant, he knew it, but he couldn't bear it and punished Chu Jiao. You must know that it is difficult to find another figure like Chu Jiao in the mansion.
Sun Shaozu was silent for a long time. Aunt Chen saw that Sun Shaozu was partial, tears welled up even more, and she cried: "Please send me home, I am already a faceless person, staying in the Sun Mansion will only make people laugh, even if my sister Quanxia has knowledge, she will also be ashamed of me when she hears Chu Jiao's pickled words scolding her." The lord will fulfill me. After saying that, he burst into tears.
When Sun Shaozu heard Aunt Chen mention her sister, his heart sank, his face turned half gray, and he called Aunt Chen's name lightly: "Birong ......"
Aunt Chen also ignored it. Sun Shaozu sat beside Aunt Chen, and saw that Aunt Chen had scratches on her neck, crying with pear blossoms and rain, but there were thousands of styles. Sun Shaozu's heart moved, after all, he has been following for so long, and today it is Aunt Chen who has been wronged, and he has failed her sister again, so he must give Aunt Chen some comfort.
Thinking of this, Sun Shaozu coaxed Aunt Chen with good words, and asked people to go down and stay in Aunt Chen's courtyard today.
Sun Shaozu coaxed Aunt Chen, and Aunt Chen turned around. After a while, the girls served the dishes, and the two sat down to eat.
The two were eating, and the courtyard was shouting, Sun Shaozu asked Xiangshe, and Xiangshe replied tremblingly: "Yes...... Miss Chu Jiao is going to hang herself in front of her aunt's yard. ”
When Sun Shaozu heard this, he threw down his chopsticks and walked out quickly. I saw Chu Jiao holding a foot of white silk, and she was about to throw it at the door frame of Aunt Chen's yard. Sun Shaozu was furious and stepped forward to snatch Bai Ling, but Chu Jiao cried softly on the ground.
Sun Shaozu saw that Chu Jiao's face also had scratches, and he already understood most of it in his heart. At this time, the cries of the girls came from behind Sun Shaozu. Sun Shaozu looked back and saw that Aunt Chen was also holding Bai Ling to hang herself in the house.
Sun Shaozu suddenly felt that his head was bigger twice, and he shouted: "Have you two made enough trouble?!" To die, all to die, my eyes are clean. ”
After speaking, he walked out of Aunt Chen's yard without looking back.
