Yun'er saw that she didn't speak, thinking that she was moved by what she said, so she turned her waist and continued: "In addition to me, there is also Sha'er Yan'er, and they all know that you are the eyeliner arranged by Mrs., but we are both Mrs. eyeliner, so naturally we will not expose each other, so as not to anger Mrs. “

"You won't reveal it to each other, so why are you deliberately slandering me?" Ah Shu was not angry or puzzled.

Yun'er smiled: "That's for your good, and it's also for our good." Madame gave me instructions, I must do it, in the future, it is inevitable that I will often go to Bitaoyuan to ventilate the news, if we are peaceful, harmonious, and I often go out of the Pear Flower Pavilion, will they not doubt it? Only if we don't get along and we conflict, will they not suspect you of covering for me. You are the same, Madame told me to send you a message to see her! We are all in this room, and only discord can we cover in secret. ”

When Ah Shu heard this, he felt that Yun'er was scheming and scheming.

Ah Shu got up to leave, and while Sha'er and Yan'er were sweeping outside, and Rui Shuang and the others were all serving in the main hall, she estimated that no one would care about her, so she went straight to Taoye Pavilion.

In the Peach Leaf Pavilion, the Xu family had just made an account of the utensils needed for the New Year's Festival, and when he saw Ah Shu coming, he said: "What are you doing in the Pear Blossom Pavilion these days, and you don't come to ask for peace?" “

Ah Shu knelt down and said, "It's really that the slave maid is busy serving the young lady and doesn't have time to come." “

When Xu heard this, he angrily slammed the account book in his hand on Ah Shu's face, and said angrily: "Which young lady? Who is your young lady? Yujun is very good at buying people's hearts, do you think she is a young lady? Changed masters so quickly? “

Ah Shu hurriedly kowtowed and said, "The slave doesn't dare." It's the slave who lost her word. “

Liusang picked up the account book, handed it back to Xu, and said with a smile: "Why should Madam be angry for the ignorant little minion. “

Xu snorted coldly, put the account book on the couch, and said with a smile: "Did you talk to Yujun in front of you?" ”

"Back to Madame's words, slave maid, don't say much."

Xu snorted: "If you can't speak, it doesn't matter, there are only three main rooms in Pear Flower Pavilion, one large main room, and two wing rooms on the left and one on the right, where are you all eating?" ”

"The slaves and maids are all eating in the main hall, together with Miss Yujun."

Xu smiled: "In this case, can you see what Yujun eats every day for every meal?" ”

Ah Shu thought for a while and said, "Yes." ”

Xu nodded with satisfaction: "It's good if you can, you have to tell me what Yujun has eaten every day." ”

"We?"

"You, Yun'er, Sha'er, Yan'er. You come at intervals to give the news. Don't be discovered. ”

"Slave, got it."

"In the future, I will directly tell the news to the grandmother of the courtyard of the Peach Leaf Pavilion."

"Yes."

"Then go back, don't come out for a long time, and be suspected by Yujun and them."

Hearing this, Ah Shu hurriedly got up and retreated.

Xu took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "No matter how favored you are, it still falls into my hands." “

Liusang was puzzled, bowed his head and asked, "Madam, why did you order them to inform you of Miss Yujun's daily meal?" What's the use of this? ”

Xu Shi smiled: "Do you remember why Ye Fuhua in the house next door couldn't come to attend the ceremony of Mrs. Xianshu?" ”

Liusang lowered his head, "Ye's family lost his hair because he ate Xiangke's food, and most of his hair fell out, so he couldn't come." “

Bao Xin, who was standing behind the Xu family, hurriedly said: "The slave knows that the lady wants to use the same method to deal with Miss Yujun, and if she knows Miss Yujun's diet, she can reward Miss Yujun with the food that matches it." ”

"Reward Miss Yujun with food? But will Miss Yujun eat it?" Liusang looked at Xu in bewilderment.

"Just try it?"

In the blink of an eye, it is almost the New Year's Day.

Every household started buying red lanterns and fireworks.

For five or six days in a row, there were people in the house who came and went to buy fireworks, lanterns, red silk, rice cakes, and new incense.

In the past few days, Yun'er doesn't work all day, there are wounds on her hands, and she is blindly lazy, idle every day, and likes to find fresh everywhere, to see the newly bought lanterns outside, colored silk and the like, and run back after seeing it, and the maids who are working are chattering about how beautiful the colorful silk is, which little guy won't even buy lanterns, the most expensive one to buy, and said that the house is really luxurious and bought dozens of fireworks at once.

Taking advantage of the time to go out in the past few days, Yun'er told the Xu family everything Yujun had eaten these days.

"Cloud ginger jujube slices, pea yellow, bamboo shoots and fried shredded pork, shrimp balls and green cabbage balls, chicken soup and tofu shreds, braised pork knuckles. It's four meat and two vegetables, but she also eats it well. ”

Liusang read Yujun's meal list today, and after reading it word by word, he couldn't help but compare Yuyan's daily meals in his heart, and then said: "Miss Yujun's meal is estimated to cost twenty taels of silver." Three meals a day, it is estimated that it will take 50 taels to cope with it, and more than 1,500 taels a month. The old man is also generous to Mingxin Xiaozhu. ”

Xu's hands were clasped in the wide mink-inlaid sleeves, neither laughing nor angry, "The lord treats her well, spoils her, and the expenses of the small kitchen are all gone, and the lord's account is gone!" I asked why I, the head of the house, couldn't save more money for the house, it turned out that it was spent here. ”

Liusang said: "There is no rule in the house that a concubine uses a small kitchen, and I can't complain that Miss Yuyan doesn't like her." It's too out of line. ”

"Remember to ask them to go out and show the meal list to the doctor, mix the ingredients of Xiangke, and ask the small kitchen in our yard to cook the dishes for Yujun. If there are more, I will also send some different ones to other courtyards, so as not to send them only to Yujun, which is not very good. ”

"Yes, ma'am."

Let's say that Yujun just had a lunch here, and before he could eat it, Xu's side sent a lot of pastries.

Rui Shuangqi said: "Madame always orders someone to bring food to Miss these days, and she is really too enthusiastic." ”

The maid who came to deliver the meal was extremely clever, and when she saw Rui Shuang say this, she smiled and said: "This meal, not only the Pear Flower Pavilion, but also the Qinyin Pavilion and the Yingyue Pavilion." I heard that I bought too many ingredients for the meals in the small kitchen this month, and I couldn't finish it this month, because there was a rule in the house not to eat last year's food. The ingredients can't be kept for next year, but they can't be thrown away in vain, and it's too tyrannical, so Mrs. is naturally reluctant. That's why I ordered the small kitchen to make snacks from the excess ingredients every afternoon and send them to all the prefectures and courtyards, so as not to waste them. ”

Cai Xiu opened the food box and saw that there were all kinds of fruit snacks in it, which was really delicate and lovely, and Rui Shuang also saw it, so he said to the woman: "Thank you Madame for bothering." ”
