The colorful embroidered beads glanced at each other, and they were all smiling.

Today is the eighth day of the first month of November, and every year on this day, the palace will issue court rewards to the ministers above the second-rank deputy position, and banquet the ministers above the second-rank deputy position in the inner courtyard of the deep palace.

Yi Wendui did not return to the house today, and sent Wang Zhong back early to inform him that the Xu family sent Wang Zhong away, and then looked at the deep twilight alone in a daze.

Yu Cong thought that the small kitchen of Bitao Courtyard made limited things, and knew that Xu had sent a few little maids to Yu Jun, so he took advantage of the fact that it was not too late to hide from the flower woman to find Yu Jun.

In the Pear Flower Pavilion, Yujun was discussing with Rui Shuang about Ming'er and Mrs. asking for the new maid's monthly money, and she heard a crisp smile in the courtyard: "Yo, Young Master Yucong, why are you here?" ”

Yu Cong smiled and narrowed her eyes at Yan'er, who was sweeping the courtyard and packing up the broom, "Sister Yan'er, it turns out that you also came to Pear Flower Pavilion." I'm here to play with Yujun. ”

Yan'er looked behind Yu Cong, and saw that no mother-in-law followed Yu Cong, so she laughed in a low voice: "Does Madam know that young master you came to play in Pear Flower Pavilion?" If you don't know, your mother-in-law will have to be beaten by the board. ”

As he spoke, he said to Yu Cong: "Miss Yu Jun, what's so interesting here." Miss Yuwan and Miss Yuyan are having fun there. ”

Yu Cong snorted, "Young Master Ben can play wherever he likes, and what does it have to do with you!" ”

Yu Cong said as he walked straight across the threshold into the main hall, Yu Jun stretched out his hand to open a bead curtain, and saw that Yu Cong was coming, so he hurriedly ordered Ah Lian to serve tea.

Ah Lian looked at the pile of tea sets in the mezzanine of the cabinet, thinking that Yucong drank tea, and the young lady couldn't help but drink tea with her, so she took a delicate jade bucket and a green jade clay pot cup and walked over.

Yujun had already beckoned Yucong to sit down, looked behind him, and saw that there was no one else, and couldn't help but wonder: "Didn't the mother-in-law come with you?" ”

Yu Cong raised her head and was quite proud: "I secretly ran over from that group of mothers-in-law." ”

Yujun smiled: "If you find out that you are gone, the flower lady and the others must not be in a hurry to get angry?" As he spoke, he turned his head and instructed Cui'er: "Go to the courtyard of Young Master Yucong and inform Mrs. Hua that Young Master Yucong has come to me." Later, I will send Caizhu to personally escort him back. ”

Yu Cong raised his head proudly and said, "I'm already six years old, and I still need someone to send me back?" It's just the distance between the two moon cave doors, and it's not very far. ”

Caizhu lowered her head and smiled: "In this winter, the snow on the road has not melted, and there is a lot of broken ice. ”

Yujun said with a smile: "You flower woman serve you all day long, how tired, in case you are slippery in the dark and accidentally injured, and you will be punished for not taking good care of you, then how wronged is the flower woman, you and I can't get over it, right?" ”

Yucong nodded, "Sister Yujun, I don't know why, I especially like to listen to you, you always speak slowly and logically, and it is also very reasonable, unlike Sister Yuyan, she will never have a good temper with me, and she is also rampage when she speaks, and she always messes around me and makes no sense." ”

Yu Jun smiled tactfully when she heard this, her jade-like face seemed to be shallow, and she gently persuaded: "Don't do this in front of me." ”

Yu Cong said excitedly: "Why, don't you like Sister Yu Yan either, so you don't like to hear her?" ”

Yujun shook her head: "No." It's just that she doesn't like me, and if you talk about her behind my back, although others don't know about it, I myself feel that I need to avoid suspicion. ”

Yu Cong snorted and said with a smile: "What is there to avoid suspicion about this." She dares to bully me, is she afraid of me? What do you want to avoid? My mother doesn't like the Ye family in the house next door, and she scolds the Ye family with us behind her back. ”

Yujun shook her head: "The gentleman doesn't care about people behind his back. ”

Yu Cong puffed up his cheeks and muttered angrily: "I'm a boy, I want to be a gentleman." You're a girl, why should you be a gentleman? ”

Yujun smiled: "Although I am a girl, I want to demand myself with the standard of a gentleman."

Yu Cong suddenly felt bored: "You are so boring, girls should be ladies." Hee-hee, Sister Yujun, do you have anything to eat here? I am hungry. ”

Yu Jun covered her mouth and smiled when she heard this, "Ah! I knew that Yucong was going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and you came to me specifically for delicious food. ”

Yu Cong smiled slightly: "Of course, there are a lot of delicious things in Mingxin's small kitchen, I like it very much." That's why I'm coming to Sister Yujun. ”

Hearing this, Yu Jun smiled and stretched out her slender index finger to gently scratch Yu Cong's upturned nose, jokingly: "You are really smart." Say, what do you like to eat? I'll let the kitchenette do it for you! ”

Yu Cong smiled: "I won't order food first, Sister Yujun will help me order." I want to see what Sister Yujun likes to eat. ”

Yu Jun lowered her head and thought about it, Ah Lian came over and poured tea for the young master, Yu Cong looked up at her, and saw that she was wearing a clean double bun, no ornaments on her head, her black hair was shiny and shiny, and the cotton jacket she wore was also half-new, compared to the other hairpins in the house, it was very different, like a plain little gardenia mixed in the gorgeous azalea.

Yu Cong looked at Ah Lian and asked, "I don't have an impression of you." Did you also come to Ewha Pavilion from Bitaowon?"

Seeing this, Ah Lian nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, it's just that I am a third-class maid in Bitao Courtyard, and I never serve in front of the young master and young ladies, no wonder the young master doesn't recognize slaves." ”

Yu Cong said strangely: "Strange! Why did the third-class maid also send it to Pear Flower Pavilion. Shouldn't my mother pick the top of the second-class maids and send them to her? ”

Hearing this, Yu Jun smiled at Yu Cong with disgust: "Isn't a third-class maid worthy of being a servant?" Do you have to be a second-class maid? Our Wenfu is the largest mansion in the entire Duanqi Dynasty, and the quality of the third-class maid alone can be regarded as top-notch. The third-class maids in our house have seen Ayaluo, and the hairpin rings they have touched, there are already more than ordinary ladies in the main room. ”

Yu Cong shook his head and said, "I just think it's strange, how can the girl next to Sister Yujun who is serving tea and water be third-class." A big family like ours pays attention to decency and pomp when they go out, and the maids around them are third-class, and they always lose face. ”

Yujun smiled slightly: "Who said that she is third-class, tomorrow when I ask for the morning ceremony, I will ask my wife for the slavery and deed of sale of these maids by the way, and then ask for the monthly money for the next month, and I will promote Ah Lian to a second-class maid." ”

Yu Cong was surprised: "Ah Lian? ”

Hearing this, Ah Lian nodded: "The name of the slave and maid is indeed Ah Lian." ”

Yu Cong said: "Ah Lian, I heard Aunt Liusang say, Aunt Liusang said that Aunt Liusang said that Ah Lian is a person who is sick at every turn and lazy at every turn. Mother also said the same, why is the lady confused, and reward you with A-mercy. ”
