Chapter Ninety-Three: Seeing the Truth
, wonderful no pop-up window for free!
Lizhan and Miao Miao returned to Xiaolan Courtyard. It was noon, the sun was blazing, and the cicadas were singing.
Stepping on the bluestone slab, she was in a trance from the sun, and when she raised her eyes, she saw a pair of eyes looking through the hollow window of the wall looking at her. Then the eyes flashed, and they ran out of the arch again.
"Miss......"
Qiao'er's eyes were red and she was about to cry, and she wanted to hug her, but she retracted her hand timidly, taking care of the difference between master and servant.
Lizhan was the most unbearable to cry, and immediately wanted to stop her. But looking at her grievances, I really can't bear to say that I think she owes this girl.
But whoever serves the Huanghua girl, the master must not go out of the door, and the maids follow the master every day, with the protection of the master.
But she disappeared from time to time, this girl was already tender, so she was naturally flustered, plus the gossip continued, and there was a big fuss in the inner courtyard, I was afraid that she would be frightened.
"Shame, such a big person is still crying."
Miao Miao took the worm-like knuckles and pulled them twice on her face, and looked at her in a circle.
Qiao'er suddenly became shy and timid, and hurriedly lowered her head, "The slave is worried about Miss." ”
He took a step back from Zhan and took a good look at her, as if his already thin body could now be blown away by a gust of wind.
Lizhan took a plain white handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to her: "Wipe it quickly, others have seen it and think that I am not good to my subordinates." ”
Qiao'er didn't dare to take it, but when she heard this, she took it decisively, wiping her tears vigorously while squeezing out a smile: "Miss is the most kind." The sores on the hands of the slaves were all cured by the young lady, and if you change to someone else's young lady, you have to get the slave out. ”
Saying this, I felt even more guilty when I left the lamp. These days, she patronized her future revenge plan, and was busy dealing with it in King Qi's mansion, except for Miao Miao, she really didn't think that she had a little maid. How to afford her trust in herself.
"In the days I've been gone, has anyone bullied you? Look at your unfed appearance, the one surnamed Qian still withholds the food and clothing of Xiaolanyuan? ”
Qiao'er shook her head: "Since King Qi killed Ah Lian in the inner courtyard, Steward Qian has made up for all the unpaid monthly silver, saying that he had miscalculated before, but it is also an excuse to think about it." ”
"How much is there to make up?"
"Twenty taels. According to the specifications of the concubine, we are twenty-five taels of silver a month. ”
Twenty-five taels, still less. Li Shu is Li Shu, I think when she lived in Loei in her last life, she had to buy a box of rouge for fifty taels. What kind of famous ladies can be raised by these twenty-five taels?
But fortunately, she is not short of business now, if she wants to make money, as long as the condition of Changyin Gongzi is settled, there will be time.
"You will take care of this silver in the future."
"Give it to the minions? Minions have never done anything before......"
"It's just twenty-five taels of silver, how much do you want to settle accounts? Besides, you can't learn. Everything has a beginning, how do you know you can't do it if you don't try? You remember, you are my personal maid who leaves the lamp, what other maids can do, you can too. ”
Qiao'er was encouraged, and her eyes were full of energy. "Yes, Miss!"
Lizhan glanced at Xiaolan's courtyard: "Have you eaten?" It was hot, and I was hungry a little fast. ”
"Aunt Yun ordered someone to cook more than a dozen plates of good dishes and brought them over."
"Aunt Yun is in there now?"
"Yes."
"As soon as I returned home, the news spread to the East Courtyard, and it can be seen that there are a lot of eyes staring at me."
Lizhan said as he walked inside.
Qiao'er seemed to be a little worried when she mentioned Aunt Yun. The slave couldn't speak, so I exchanged a few words with Aunt Yun and made her a pot of tea, so she asked me to do my own thing and leave her alone. The slave looked at her and didn't take a few sips of tea, so she frowned, did you think that our hospitality was not good, or that the slave would not offend Aunt Yun? ”
Lizhan smiled and comforted her: "I can't afford to drink tea in Xiaolanyuan, it's not that she doesn't know." Now it's her rushing to slap us up, even if you really say something wrong, she won't bother with you. ”
"Yes, Miss saved Aunt Yun's life, and Aunt Yun naturally won't be angry with the minions."
Lizhan really feels that this girl is innocent and tight, Aunt Yun is such a good person. I don't want to bother to teach her, and I think that she is her own person, and she will suffer in the future, and she will have to follow suit.
So he said calmly: "Qiao'er, you remember, when you look at a person, don't just look at a general idea, you must be comprehensive and have nothing to miss." Take Aunt Yun as an example, she is very spicy on weekdays, and when she is good to you, you think she is so fast-mouthed, straightforward, and cheerful. When you scold the wicked people, and greet them with a smile after a few days, it can be said that you can't pretend to be in your heart, and you forget about it after scolding. But do you want to think about it, a woman who is really refreshing and can't hide things will try her best to give birth to an old man who is more than ten years older than herself? Will you wear heavy makeup every day to compete for favor and win status? ”
Qiao'er was stunned by what she said.
"There are some things, some scenes, you can understand how ridiculous they are when you turn them out and think about them twice. Just like the most favored concubine in today's harem, the queen praised her for dressing up exquisitely at the banquet, but in fact, she was too flattering, more than 300 days a year, even if she was sick and bedridden, she had to dress up properly. She replied at that time that it couldn't be faker, not only easily resolved the embarrassment, but also won the emperor to look at it differently, thinking that she was so unique and fresh in the drowning of three thousand. ”
Qiao'er was curious, "What did she reply?" ”
Lizhan chuckled disdainfully: "She said that women dress up for their own mood." When you look at yourself beautifully, you will be in a good mood, and only when you are in a good mood can you serve the holy car thoughtfully. Oh, this sounds like it makes a lot of sense, and at that time, a harem beauties were fooled, and they all used this to be the honor of women. But if you think about it carefully, if you are the only one left in this world, and you can only meet the beasts when you come and go, will you still be nervous to apply grease and powder every day? ”
Qiao'er thought about it and shook her head categorically.
That's it, people dress up, in the final analysis, they dress up for others to see, but this is ugly, and women themselves don't want to believe it. Just like the big and small truths in this world, in fact, it is difficult to accept, but if you don't accept it, your eyes will always be foggy, and you will live a life in a daze, maybe you will fall off the cliff in the next moment, and you don't know how you died. ”
Just like in her last life.
Qiao'er was really shocked by Lizhan's opinion, such profound words, as if they came out of the mouth of a concubine.
Qiao'er's eyes flashed with a golden light of admiration, and while nodding, she asked: "Qiao'er must keep in mind the words of the master, and I will never dare to think of people as simple in the future." It's just master, how do you know that Concubine Zhen said that? ”
"I ......"
That year's banquet was the queen's birthday banquet, she was still Gu Fuze's princess, and she was the only daughter of the Li family, so she was naturally invited. When it was the queen who was separated by two positions, after Concubine Zhen said that sentence, the queen looked at the emperor and applauded with a smile, and she really wanted to overturn the case.
"When I was staying in King Qi's Mansion, I listened to the guests of King Qi's Mansion."
Qiao'er nodded, obviously taking it seriously.
"Lamp! You're back! The two of them listened to this flattering cry, and looked up to find that they had unconsciously walked into the hall.
Aunt Yun stood up from the stool in a water-red pomegranate skirt, and the thick fat powder covered her pale face, but when she looked closer, she could still see that her spirit was not as good as before, and now all kinds of things are just forcible pretenses.
Dystocia, it's a real loss of energy.
She was so happy that she was stammering, which was calculated, so she instantly raised a happy smile, and her pace sped up a little.
"Aunt Yun, why don't you recuperate in the East Courtyard and come to my Xiaolan Courtyard. I don't have anything decent here, and the girl is not good at speaking, so I neglected my aunt for nothing. ”
Aunt Yun came up and grabbed her hands tightly, "What did Zhan'er say, you saved my aunt and me, and saved Junsheng, and my aunt should thank you well." ”
Junsheng? Or is it according to the male name? Would you rather call a brother for her?
Hehe, it seems that the old stubborn "heart of a child" is immortal!
Aunt Yun waved her hand, and among the three or four maids behind her, two of them brought a gift box tied with red rope.
"This is a little bit of my aunt's heart, you must accept it."
Lizhan pretended to shirk it, but still warmly accepted the things and let Qiao'er put them in the wing.
Lizhan invited Aunt Yun to sit down, and the two chatted while eating tea.
"Where's Junsheng? Is Junsheng okay? ”
Aunt Yun smiled and called the nurse behind her, and the nurse took the child to the mother.
Ben just asked casually, but when the child was hugged in front of her, she looked at the pink face, and a few rubs of fetal hair on her head, which reminded her of her lovely daughter who was thrown to death.
Cold sweat broke out in her palms, and her knuckles ached, and she just wanted to hold on to something.
"Junsheng is so cute, Zhan'er wants to hug too."
The nurse held her head and carefully passed it to her.
I have no experience in leaving the lamp, and the technique is very raw, like holding a golden egg yolk, and it is not right to hold it anywhere.
The child writhed twice, and cried out with a "wow", Aunt Yun was distressed, but she couldn't say anything, so she only suppressed her voice and said urgently: "I want to hold her waist." ”
"Oh" she quickly hugged her, patted the child's back lightly with her other hand, and stood up and walked a few quick steps.
"Don't cry, don't cry, Junsheng won't cry."
Li Zhan didn't even notice the smile on the corner of his mouth, and even teased the child with his eyebrows. If Gu Yueze is a good person, if he will treat her as he promised, as always.
Then the one she was patting and coaxing in her arms at this time should be her own daughter. She will stand in the gazebo of Fuyu Pavilion, fan her gently, and when she is older, she will run around her in circles, calling her "mother" glutinously.
She will teach her to read and write, dress her up, and when she grows into a big girl, she will find a good son for her.
However, this is vaguely a dream in a previous life, and now to relive it again, it is like being shackled in a heavy snowfall, unable to move forward or withdrawn.
She was so cold that she wanted to tear those people with beastly hearts to shreds!
