Chapter 61: To Each His Own Heart (4)
Rui Shuangcui'er and the others were all stunned, for so many years in this mansion, although there has been a turbulent undercurrent in secret, but they are still polite to each other, and their demeanor and physique are all there, Rui Shuang has been in the mansion for many years, and he has never seen this kind of kowtow.
Rui Shuang hurriedly spoke for Yujun: "What is this for?" No matter how noble our house is, we don't do this kind of gift for no reason. You don't hurry up yet. ”
When Ah Lian heard this, she got up busily, but she was just too excited, her anger was floating in blood, and her blood was not enough to breathe, and she was still trembling.
Yujun looked at Ah Lian's thin body trembling and trembling, but a pair of big apricot eyes shot out of an elite, lonely light.
Yujun instantly concluded that this was a very pitiful and story-telling slave, so she looked up and smiled and said to Ruishuang: "This maid named Ah Lian is a little interesting. Serve tea by my side today. ”
Saying that, he looked at Ah Lian again, Li Vortex smiled lightly, and said softly: "I see that you are thin and pitiful, if there is anything you don't understand in the future, I will ask Rui Shuangcui'er." ”
Ah Lian hurriedly agreed, and Rui Shuang and Cui'er couldn't help but smile at each other when they saw that her expression was still timid.
"Okay, you come with me, I'll take you to recognize the tea set, the tea set for Miss has a style." Cui'er said, reaching out and pulling Ah Lian's sleeve and taking her out.
Xiang'er thought that according to her appearance, she should have served in front of the young lady, but she didn't expect that such a light job as serving tea and water would be taken away by Ah Lian, a grizzled third-class maid, and Xiang'er was quite unconvinced, so she turned her eyes to see Ke'er, who was the same person as herself.
Yujun had heard Rui Shuang say that she was good friends with Ke'er, she didn't know who these two were, but she thought in her heart that as soon as she entered the Pear Flower Pavilion, she would be able to show who she was befriending on her face, which showed that it was not deep in the city, so it could barely be used.
Yujun guessed that the maid who was staring at the pretty tall girl beside her was the two of them, so she said, "Xiang'er, Ke'er, one of the two of you is responsible for burning the paper for me to practice calligraphy every day, and the other is responsible for helping Cui'er burn charcoal." ”
Cui'er was relieved when she heard this, on this cold day, if you don't burn charcoal for an hour, the heating in the house will be dispersed, and people can't stand it, so she is in charge of the main hall, the young lady's inner bed, the study, and the charcoal fire in the east and west wings, and she is very tired every day. Now that someone is sharing the burden for himself, he is happy, and when he heard this, he smiled kindly at Dresser Ke'er.
Xiang'er Ke'er glanced at each other, and felt that this job was easy for three people to do, and the Pear Flower Pavilion was not very large, it was a cheap job.
Yujun was still arranging, so she heard the coquettish smile of Mian'er Pan'er and the other little girls outside: "Miss, let's deliver lunch." ”
Yujun did feel that she had to consider the arrangements of these maids, so she said: "Let's eat first, we don't have any special rules of respect and humility in the Pear Flower Pavilion, in the past, when the masters ate, the people will eat at about the same time, you can also eat together, I know you are coming this morning, so let the maids and ladies in the small kitchen cook your meal." Let's eat it in one piece. ”
There is no rule that the master and slave eat for an hour in the peach courtyard, most of them are the master has finished eating, and the maids have eaten again, and only the first-class maids, second-class maids and serving mothers can get the meals made in the small kitchen alone, and the third-class maids are all eating the leftover meals of the ladies and ladies.
These new maids were stunned that Yujun wanted them to eat at the same time as themselves, but when they saw Yujun smiling and cute, they all agreed.
Pan'er Mian'er and Fang'er split their heads.
Yujun sat alone at a table to eat food, and Rui Shuang and other maids sat on the table on the other side with the new maids.
Today's lunch for Yujun in the small kitchen is a plate of garlic chicken wings, a bowl of pork cubes with spiced sauce, a bowl of grass carp soup, and a bowl of fried golden shrimp. The sauce was fragrant, and Yujun sat west and facing east, but she didn't have the heart to eat, just peeked at the situation on the opposite table.
Rui Shuang thought through and knew that Xu had always liked people to praise her for being generous, so she had always been generous to her subordinates, and she saw that Ah Lian was so pitiful, so she naturally guessed that in the Bitao Courtyard, Ah Lian must have been bullied, so she pulled her to her side and sat with her.
Xiang'er saw Ah Lian sitting next to Rui, and her heart was very angry, Ah Lian is a person who can be bullied has long been a secret that everyone in Bitaoyuan knows but does not declare, and now that she has entered the Pear Flower Pavilion, she is very liked, but it makes Shang'er unhappy.
She was impetuous, so she sat next to Cui'er before Yun'er, and picked up the chopsticks and gave Cui'er a piece of meat, "Sister Cui'er, you eat first." ”
Cui'er lived a light life with Aunt Xiao, and she was very uncomfortable with this kind of flattery, Rui Shuang smiled: "Cui'er has her own hands, and she can pick up vegetables by herself, so she doesn't need you to be so enthusiastic." ”
Xiang'er felt embarrassed, she was used to being powerful in Bitao Courtyard in the past, the first time she flattered others like this, she ate a closed door, and there was no place to put her face, and tears rolled down her face, "I didn't want to please Sister Cui'er, I have always been so enthusiastic." ”
Cui'er smiled awkwardly when she heard this, but she was reluctant to speak.
Yun'er, Yan'er and others all showed a look of contempt.
Mian'er saw that the little maid was familiar, and she couldn't think of it for a while, staring at Ah Shu for a long time, Yujun said, "What are you looking at?" So into the mind? ”
Mian'er smiled slightly and said, "That maid, isn't that the one who cried outside the Peach Leaf Pavilion last time?" ”
Mian'er said and pushed Pan'er with her elbow and said, "Look, isn't it?" ”
Yujun looked at Pan'er when she heard this, Pan'er nodded and smiled: "It's true, it seems that my brother in my hometown is sick and has no money for medical treatment."
Yujun nodded, remembering Ashu, when everyone had finished eating, Yujun told Rui Shuang, and the remaining five people arranged to do the sprinkling and watch the yard.
Rui Shuang told everyone.
All of a sudden, there was a clear arrangement for the work that everyone was doing.
Yun'er was very angry in her heart, and before it was afternoon, she pushed off her body and was inconvenient, she went back to the west wing room to lie down, and sat on the couch to sulk. ”
Yun'er sneered: "You and I are half a catty, what is there to share." Aren't you also in charge of sprinkling the yard? Hum! Sprinkle and sweep the yard, that is the rough work done by a third-class maid! I'm a second-class maid in Bitaoyuan who doesn't touch the spring water with ten fingers! Now you're asking me to do the rough work! Miss Yujun is really bad! It's bad! ”
Yan'er smiled: "Really?" Anyway, our serious master is not Miss Yujun, but the lady of Peach Leaf Pavilion. As long as you are loyal to Madame, that's fine. ”
