Chapter 124: Slap in the face
The afternoon sun shines on the snow-covered bricks of the Evergreen Pavilion. Song Yuning slowly approached, and heard the faint voice of the girl speaking from inside, and her face was hazy for a moment, as if the sun was obscured by passing clouds for a moment, and then it returned to brightness.
The cinnabar beside Mrs. Song curtsied at her from a distance, and in a blink of an eye, she wrapped her injured fingers with a handkerchief, which penetrated a little red, and exhaled softly: "Oh, what's wrong with the sixth girl's hand?" ”
Before Song Yuning could answer, Lin Qiu beside her hurriedly said: "Sister Cinnabar, please hurry up and find some medicine for the injury, the girl has to personally fold a few plum blossoms for the old lady to insert a bottle, and accidentally hurt her hand, it must hurt at this time." ”
Song Yuning turned her head and scolded: "What's a big deal, don't make a fuss, I don't hurt, it's just a small mouth." ”
Rin Qiu gave her a worried look and then fell silent. Seeing this, Cinnabar said: "It's all bleeding, how can it not hurt, the old lady has the best medicine here, and the slave will bring it for you." ”
Old Madam Song seemed to hear someone talking outside, so she asked, "Who is outside, why don't you come in?" ”
When Cinnabar heard the question, she had to help Song Yuning into the house first, and replied, "Old lady, it's the sixth girl who is here." ”
The eldest lady and several aunts in the house were there, Song Yuning smiled and stepped forward to greet An, and said hello to Song Yuheng and several other sisters. took the plum branch held by Rin Qiu and said, "I just got out of girls' school, and I passed by the plum garden and folded a plum blossom for my grandmother to insert a bottle. In a blink of an eye, he saw that the bottle was a newly replaced plum branch, and he couldn't help but 'oops', turned his head and pouted: "It seems that the eldest sister is filial to her grandmother, but it is even more beautiful than my branch." ”
Old Madam Song smiled: "It's okay, some ink, you can take another vase." ”
Dianmo smiled and answered, and the old lady Song noticed Song Yuning's fingers and said in surprise: "What's wrong with Ah Ning's hand?" Come and show my grandmother. ”
Only then did Cinnabar open her mouth and said: "The six girls are filial, and they personally folded plum branches for the old lady, and accidentally injured their fingers, and they all bled out, so the slave maid went to get the wound medicine and bandaged the six girls." ”
Mrs. Song lifted the veil and saw that the mouth was as long as a knuckle, although it was not deep, it also cut through the flesh and blood, and a lot of blood was shed. So he hurriedly said to Cinnabar: "Then you don't go quickly." ”
Cinnabar agreed and hurried away. Old Madam Song hugged Song Yuning to her side and sat down, pointed at the tip of her nose, and said, "Little Nizi, why bother doing this Laoshizi errand by yourself, it hurts your hand, it can make my old man feel distressed." ”
"It's the granddaughter who is not filial." Song Yuning hugged Old Madam Song's arm and leaned her head closer to her.
Old Madam Song glanced at her and said, "Nonsense, I know your filial piety." ”
Song Yuheng looked at Song Yuning's appearance, and said with a smile on the side: "Ah Ning is so filial to my grandmother, I am ashamed of being a sister." ”
Song Yuning raised her eyes to look at her in the arms of Old Madam Song, and suddenly smiled sweetly: "In the future, the eldest sister and the second sister will enter the palace, and Ah Ning will honor your filial piety together." ”
The gentle smile on the corner of Song Yuheng's lips stiffened, and then said: "Grandmother, look at the sixth sister, she said that she smeared honey and said that she was bent by smearing honey, and her whole person was made of honey." ”
Everyone also hurriedly followed suit. Old Madam Song couldn't close her mouth with a smile for a while, and became more and more concerned about Song Yuning: "It's very cold outside, don't you want to freeze." ”
Song Yuning replied with a smile: "The snow stopped for a while, and it was noon, so it wasn't too cold." Before the words fell, Cinnabar had already taken the wound medicine, and Song Yuning followed Cinnabar to the side pavilion to bandage.
Cinnabar took the wound medicine and applied it to Song Yuning, and took the soft white cotton cloth to tear it open for bandaging, but when she saw that the cotton cloth was stained with something dirty, she said: "The sixth girl waited for a while, I don't know which careless girl stained the white cotton cloth and didn't clean it up." I'll go get another piece. ”
Song Yuning nodded, signaling that she didn't need to worry.
The partial pavilion is the place where Mrs. Song recites scriptures and worships the Buddha on weekdays, and she doesn't come much. I flipped through the scriptures on the side, but I unexpectedly saw a letter sandwiched between them.
I saw that it was written on the envelope, and my mother opened it herself.
Song Yuning was stunned, this is not her father's handwriting, and it doesn't look like her uncle's, is it...... Is it the third uncle's?
She hesitated, motioned for Rin Qiu to guard the door, and quickly pulled out the letter herself. However, she had only just read two words of greeting when Rin Qiu hurriedly signaled for Cinnabar to come back. Song Yuning hurriedly put away the letter, but her eyes unexpectedly swept over the word 'blood jade'. Her brain instantly burned cold and hot, however, it was too late to look closely, so she could only fold the letter and put it back.
Absentmindedly, he asked Cinnabar to help bandage it, but his thoughts were still on the word 'blood jade' just now. Rin Qiu quietly tugged at her sleeve, and then she came back to her senses and found that she had arrived in front of Old Madam Song. Old Madam Song wanted to ask her what was wrong, but she heard someone outside shouting something.
A soft but incomparably clear cry said: "The fourth sister is used to bullying me, what a good thing is just a piece of clothing...... It's okay for my sister to give it to my sister...... Why did my sister say it so ugly. ”
"Fifth sister, what are you doing here? What's the point of making noise in my grandmother's yard? Why did my sister fight with you for something? Even if there is something amazing, if you say you like it, my sister won't even touch it. Besides, it's just a piece of clothing, I don't want it. Where do you say I bullied you? ”
Song Yuying was dressed in a scarlet hundred butterfly skirt, and the pear blossoms covered her face with the rain and cried, her delicate and charming posture was the same as that of her biological mother, Aunt Xue. "When the fourth sister said this, where did she end me? What is it if it's not a bully? ”
The fifth girl, Song Yurou, and the sixth girl, Song Yuying, are both from a big house, and when they rarely come out on weekdays, they don't dare to make a mistake in front of Mrs. Song, and I don't know what's wrong today. Regardless of it, he made a fuss in the Evergreen Pavilion.
Dianmo walked to the door and lifted the curtain, and saw the fourth girl and the fifth girl standing at the door, as if they bumped into each other by chance, because of something quarreling. Then he said, "Come in, two girls, the old lady has called you." ”
When the two of them heard this, they didn't dare to quarrel anymore, and hurriedly entered the house to greet everyone. Aunt Xue looked at her daughter Song Yuying with a look of grievance and wanted to ask, but she didn't dare to make a mistake. Song Yurou's biological mother, Aunt Liu, was a reluctant one, and she relied on herself to be favored, and immediately asked, "What's wrong with Rou'er?" What does my aunt usually say, let you be humble to your sister everywhere, why is it so disproportionate today, and she still made trouble in front of the old lady. ”
There was a trace of contempt in Song Yurou's drooping eyes, but she said aggrievedly: "My daughter doesn't know why the fifth sister suddenly said that I bullied her?" ”
Song Yuning heard this, glanced at Song Yuying, whose eyes were red and swollen, and Song Yuying, who was delicate and delicate, smiled and said: "Fifth sister, what kind of grievances have you suffered, you shouldn't make trouble in front of your grandmother, just go and reason with your aunt, and your aunt will definitely make decisions for you." ”
Song Yurou didn't have a backache when she heard her standing and talking, and sneered: "Why do you have to be in charge, no matter what, I am my sister, I should knock out my teeth and swallow it in my stomach, where do I dare to wronged my fifth sister." ”
Song Yuheng's face suddenly couldn't hold back, revealing a trace of anger. "What do you mean by that!"
Song Yurou didn't seem to take the 'second room celebrity' in front of this old lady in her eyes, so she wanted to say something more to push back, but she heard Song Yuheng also open her mouth: "Fourth sister, you are older than the fifth sister, no matter who is right or wrong, you must always be tolerant." ”
Song Yurou opened her mouth, but she didn't dare to make a sound, Song Yuheng is the eldest daughter of the Song family and the future queen. She dared to refute Song Yuning, but she didn't dare to refute her.
Song Yuying was even more aggrieved at this time, but she didn't dare to contradict Song Yuheng, so she only said to Song Yuning: "Why does the sixth sister say me?" Don't talk about the fourth sister? ”
Song Yuning saw that the two of them didn't dare to say it, but Song Yuheng dared to put down his face like this, and his little face turned pale for a while. Their second room is in the Song Mansion, and it is not as good as the big house? How dare they look down on themselves so much?
Song Yuning didn't know how these people arranged her behind her. She is favored by Mrs. Song, however, in the future, she will also pour water outside, and she has to marry into someone else's family. When the old lady is gone, she doesn't even have a supporter, so what is the difference between her situation and the situation of their concubines.
Her angry head was dazed, and Rin Qiu looked at her nervously on the side, for fear that something would happen to her.
"That's it!" Seeing that Mrs. Song's face had sunk, the eldest lady Wang hurriedly scolded everyone and said, "Four girls, five girls, isn't it just a piece of clothing?" Why are you so embarrassed to come to your grandmother? She sat down at the bottom of the old lady, and although she was scolding, she still had a gentle and dignified smile on her face, and she acted like a housewife.
She turned around and explained to Mrs. Song: "Heng'er made a new fox fur before, but it didn't make it smaller. The four and five girls were in front of them that day, and they asked them which of them lacked such a garment to wear. But they were made to fight. ”
Song Yurou heard the eldest lady say this, so she obediently kowtowed to the old lady and said: "It's all granddaughters who are not good, granddaughters are not sensible, shouldn't say that the fifth sister is not, since I am a sister, where will I fight with the fifth sister, it is the fifth sister who misunderstood my granddaughter's meaning." Grandmother, don't be angry, don't take it personally. ”
Song Yuying's mouth was not stupid, and immediately said: "It's my fault, I misunderstood the meaning of the fourth sister, and my sister naturally won't grab things from me." Although she said this, her tone was completely opposite, it sounded like Song Yurou reversing black and white and deceiving her grandmother.
Song Yuning sat silently and listened, and understood that this matter turned out to be Song Yuheng's head. There is even more hatred in my heart. Secretly guessed: Could it be that Song Yuheng deliberately assigned the two of them to give him no face?
