Not far away, Aunt Zhang, with a somewhat weird smile on her face, slowly walked towards the master and servant with the support of the two maids.

After being locked up in the small Buddha hall for more than ten days to copy the scriptures, today, Aunt Zhang and Grandma Zhang were finally released from Xiyuan by Mrs. Tai.

Wei Man's eyes flashed, and a proper smile appeared on his face, but he stood in place, watching Aunt Zhang approach step by step.

Although Aunt Zhang tried her best to cover it up, Wei Man also saw that Aunt Zhang's legs and feet were a little inconvenient.

Wei Man deliberately stayed on Aunt Zhang's knee for a few more breaths.

"I didn't expect to meet the third miss here," Aunt Zhang greeted with a smile, first looked at the direction of the outer courtyard, and then looked at the corridor leading to the second courtyard on the other side, and asked with some curiosity: "I don't know where the third miss came from?" ”

"I just sent my cousin out of the Cheng family," Wei Man smiled lightly and said, "I didn't expect to meet Aunt Zhang here." ”

"Cousin of the Cheng family......" Aunt Zhang was puzzled for a moment, and immediately said suddenly: "It turns out that the third lady's maternal grandfather has already come to Beijing." ”

When her grandfather entered Beijing, Wei Man remembered that when she mentioned it to Mrs. Tai, there was only Mother Tao who was waiting in the house.

Wei Man's heart moved slightly, she thought that Wei Xian's biological mother, Aunt Tao, was Tao's mother's biological daughter, in this case, would Mother Tao secretly communicate with Aunt Zhang for Aunt Tao's sake?

However, Wei Man thought about it again, although Aunt Zhang is now a master, she is still a concubine who begs for a life in front of Mrs. Tai, and Mother Tao is the most powerful person next to Mrs. Tai, it is said that Aunt Zhang should please Mother Tao, even if Mother Tao has the heart to report some news to Aunt Zhang for Aunt Tao in the second room, it should be a choice, and a small thing like her grandfather's entry into Beijing is not something to inform Aunt Zhang to know.

Or is it......

Thinking of a possibility, Wei Man was a little frightened, or could Aunt Zhang pay special attention to things about her?

But why?

Wei Man thought, she is the young lady of the third room, and Aunt Zhang is the aunt of the second room, the two have no interests involved at all, why does Aunt Zhang always pay special attention to her?

"Yes, my grandfather has just entered Beijing," Wei Man said with some surprise, "I didn't expect Aunt Zhang and Grandma Zhang to know about this." ”

"Oh," Aunt Zhang's face was faint, but she didn't want to talk about it anymore, and said lightly: "It's just that I've heard someone mention it occasionally." ”

Seeing Aunt Zhang's expression like this, Wei Man didn't ask any more, and looked Aunt Zhang up and down with a pair of fiery eyes, showing a worried expression on her face, and said, "I see, the look on Grandma's face is a little haggard, in the Xi Garden, is Grandma not resting well?" ”

"Oh?" Aunt Zhang let go of the support of the maid beside her, touched her face in disbelief, and muttered in surprise: "Isn't your complexion good?" Do you look haggard? ”

Aunt Zhang said while rubbing her hand back and forth on her face, and then put her hand in front of her eyes to look at it, suddenly, she laughed, rubbed her fingers indifferently, and sighed: "Hey, this Jiang Chang'an's family, the skill of applying makeup is getting better and better." ”

"Hiss......"

Weiman heard two clear gasps behind him.

Jiang Chang'an's family is a slave maid in Xiyuan who dresses up for Mrs. Tai, what Aunt Zhang's words mean, she not only uses haggard makeup to deceive Mrs. Tai, but also her helper is a popular daughter-in-law in Xiyuan.

Wei Man looked at the two maids standing beside Aunt Zhang, but saw that the two maids called Xiao Tao and Gu Xue had been hanging their heads all the time, and they couldn't see their expressions clearly.

"It turned out to be Jiang Changan's makeup for his aunt and grandmother!" Wei Man was surprised at first, and then looked at Aunt Zhang's face more carefully, and couldn't help but praise: "If Aunt Zhang doesn't say it, I can't tell that Grandma is powdered." ”

"Don't hide it from the third miss, I, what about cooking, I think I'm very good, but ah, it's this grooming skill," Aunt Zhang shook her head with a wry smile, and sighed: "That's really too much to handle, when I'm young, I can barely make do with it, and I haven't had any big messes, and when I get older, I gradually can't do it......"

Wei Man chuckled with him while looking at Aunt Zhang's appearance.

Although Aunt Zhang's face is full of weather, the drooping Danfeng eyes and the vaguely recognizable melon seed face...... Wei Man felt that when Aunt Zhang was young, she should be regarded as a delicate beauty.

However, what Aunt Zhang's grandmother said just now obviously felt that she was born beautiful when she was young.

"Aunt Zhang is now the master, these little things of grooming, their own maids are responsible for these little things, and grandma naturally doesn't have to worry," Wei Man said with a smile: "Grandmother must also know Aunt Zhang's shortcomings, and the craftsmanship of the Jiang family's sister-in-law is also praised and praised by grandmother, that is, one day, grandmother heard from whom did grandmother hear that today's makeup is made by Jiang Chang'an's family, and there should be no blame." ”

Both of them knew very well in their hearts that Mrs. Aether's temperament would never tolerate her dressing maid going to the concubine who looked up to her snort.

Wei Man said these words, although there was some threat in his tone, but in his heart, Wei Man felt that Jiang Chang'an's family put on makeup for Aunt Zhang's grandmother should not be true, but she was a little strange in her heart, why did Aunt Zhang always want to suppress her on "arrogance" today.

Aunt Zhang's face was also a sharp look that didn't care about Wei Man's words, she first smiled faintly, and then waved her hand casually to the two maids beside her.

The two maids who followed Aunt Zhang's grandmother hurriedly bowed and retreated, and did not stop until they reached the corner of the corridor.

Wei Man met Aunt Zhang's burning gaze, and after a moment, she also hooked her lips and smiled, turning her head to look at Swift and Xia Lan behind her.

Swift's face was anxious, and she opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she bit her lower lip again, and her expression was very hesitant.

Xia Lan did not hesitate to retreat, seeing that the swift was hesitating away, she hurriedly grabbed the swift again, and the two of them retreated to the other end of the corridor together.

Wei Man looked at Aunt Zhang quietly, and secretly guessed in her heart that Aunt Zhang wanted to say something to her when she retreated.

Aunt Zhang looked around first, and then, she looked at Wei Man softly, with the tolerance of the elders looking at the ignorant juniors, and sighed: "Mrs. Tai's temper, in the eyes of the third lady, may be difficult to understand, but I, but I feel that there is no better master in the world than our Mrs. Tai...... I have served Mrs. Tai for most of my life, and Mrs. Tai naturally has some trust in me, so ah, Mrs. Tai treats me very kindly and casually...... When I am happy, Mrs. Tai will reward me with many good things, and if she thinks that I have done something wrong, Mrs. Tai will directly punish me...... The third lady also grew up in the Hou Mansion's backyard, and when this backyard is big, it is easy to come out of those people who treat you very close to you in the face, but think about the law behind your back...... As for me, I have also seen a lot of rich ladies in the capital, and after seeing those ladies, I came back and compared with the ladies in our house, hey, I can have a housewife like Mrs. Tai, it is really my blessing. ”

Wei Man's eyes became deeper and deeper with Aunt Zhang's words.

Mrs. Tai trusts Aunt Zhang very much, Wei Man has long been aware of it, no, she thinks that if Mrs. Tai absolutely trusts Aunt Zhang, it is better to say that it is because of the gap in status and the consistent performance of Aunt Zhang, so that Mrs. Tai does not take Aunt Zhang's concubine in her eyes.

Thinking that when she noticed that Wei Man's behavior was abnormal in the past, Mrs. Tai couldn't bear it, compared to her just in front of Mrs. Tai, she said that Aunt Zhang had encouraged her to go to the Kindness Hall, and Mrs. Tai punished Aunt Zhang and Grandma Zhang on the same day...... Wei Man thought that if she really went to tell Mrs. Tai about Aunt Zhang's situation now, the result, nine times out of ten, Mrs. Tai would believe Aunt Zhang's words more.

"Grandmother treats people very kindly, especially to Aunt Zhang," Wei Man said with a smile: "Compared with Aunt Luo, who has the same status, Mrs. Tai treats Aunt Zhang really well." ”

"Is it compared to Aunt Luo's grandmother?" Aunt Zhang's eyes flickered, a meaningful smile appeared on her face, and she sighed lightly: "Third Miss is really joking, how can I compare with Aunt Luo?" Sister Luo's identity......"

"How?" Wei Man looked at Aunt Zhang's eyes, smiled lightly and asked, "What identity can Aunt Luo have?" She should be the same identity as Aunt Zhang, shouldn't she? ”

"Naturally not...... Aunt Zhang shook her head mysteriously, paused, but changed the topic again, and said: "Yesterday, Mother Tao and Mother Wu also talked to me about the third miss, coincidentally, it also has something to do with Aunt Luo, the third miss guess, what did the two mothers say to me?" ”

"Oh, there is such a thing," Wei Man didn't seem to be very interested, she gently straightened the folds on her sleeves, and said indifferently: "Aunt Zhang's spare time, she can still talk to several mothers in Xiyuan, it seems that Aunt Zhang's life in Xiyuan is very agreeable." ”

"I really let the third lady say it," Aunt Zhang laughed, let out a long sigh, and said: "I, and those mothers in Xiyuan, they all had a friendship when they were young, and the third miss is still young, so she doesn't understand the kindness of the old sisters...... It was a little colder, and Tao's mother was afraid that I would freeze, so she asked the sewing room to prepare a quilt for me...... Mother Liu was afraid that I would not eat well, so she personally prepared meals for me, and these days, I have tasted Mrs. Tai's tonic soup all over again...... Mother Jiang was even more funny, when she came to see me, she actually took a vase from Mrs. Tai's treasury, saying that it was deserted in the small Buddha hall, and the vase was there, and I would feel better when I saw it......"
