Chapter 20: The Unending Mind
Until the lamp is in charge, the doors of the courtyards are about to fall, and the three rooms have not yet competed for a name, Pei's and He's don't give in to each other, and they are all vying to let their people occupy one more shopkeeper, everyone knows that the so-called steward is just a name for the Du family to take the shop.
Sanfang Li did not fight or grab, and sat silently on the couch all the time, He said dryly, turned around and asked her, she nodded and said yes. Pei's fight for righteousness and strictness, turned his head to ask her to say, she also said yes, and refused to get involved.
Xiao Rongyue sat beside her, bowing her head and refusing to speak more, whoever asked her smiled bitterly, saying that the elders were in charge, where could she be allowed to speak, and she pushed cleanly.
When it was time to eat, the He family was already so angry that his face turned blue, and he refused to stay in Chunhuayuan angrily, and went back with his maidservant, saying that he would come back to reason with Pei early tomorrow morning, and if he didn't understand, he would invite the respected elders of the clan to evaluate the reasoning.
Naturally, the Li family would not stay any longer, so he politely said goodbye to the Pei family, and quietly went back to his yard.
Xiao Rongyue is the most interesting, as soon as He Shi said goodbye, she also got up: "Ah Jiayuan himself is not comfortable, and he is still taking decoction, so I won't stay to make trouble, and I will come to say hello to Ah Jia tomorrow." ”
Pei's heart is now full of three shops, and he is still worried about how to compete with He tomorrow, so he has no time to take care of her, waving his hand to let her go, and urging Bai Zhi to send someone to the front yard, waiting for Du Kui to come back, and he can also discuss and discuss an idea.
Du Huo had already left, and he avoided it when He and Li came, and he said that the gentleman didn't ask about internal affairs, and handed over the trouble to Pei and Xiao Rongyue.
Walking all the way to his yard, Xiao Rongyue asked Camellia: "I just came back, why didn't Mother Zhan come together?" ”
Camellia replied: "Mother Zhan said that Mrs. rewarded her with a few pieces of clothing, and it was not good for her to go to Chunhua Garden with her, so she went back to the garden first to wait for the lady." ”
Xiao Rongyue smiled: "Madame really values Mother Zhan." ”
Camellia said softly on the side: "Tu'er went inside this morning to serve, and she has already asked for the key to the lady's makeup box." ”
Xiao Rongyue lazily covered her mouth with a cool fan and yawned: "Let's talk to her, and then leave it to her, and let her take any jewelry you want." ”
Camellia is very incomprehensible, Tu'er has always had a low temperament, and she loves to make a little smart, and the lady didn't use her much in the past, even if it was for the sake of Zhan's mother's face, she was allowed to be an errand in the tea outside, how could this leave her inside, and she was still in charge of the makeup box, and the lady's makeup box was full of valuables.
When she returned to the main room of Qiushiyuan, Yuzhu had already waited outside the door obediently, saluted Xiao Rongyue with her crossed hands, personally held a handkerchief and came up to clean her face, and went to light incense.
Xiao Rongyue looked at her and smiled, asked her to go down to eat, and called Sanqi in: "Is everything okay in the garden today?" ”
Sanqi frowned: "The lady expected it to be good, and she never gave birth all day." ”
"First of all, Dong's mother in the second room came to ask a few times, saying that the second lady was worried about the lady, and the lady came back and asked someone to reply, and then Mother Lin from Chunhua Garden came over in person, saying that she was afraid that the people in the garden would not know how to make a point, and the cage for the wedding had not been counted, so she had to ask someone to help with the cage."
Xiao Rongyue smiled, cleaned her hand and took the balm, and asked Sanqi idly: "Why did you reply to her?" ”
Sanqi hurriedly said: "The maid returned to Mother Lin, the lady is not in the house, the marriage list and the key to the treasury are locked by the lady, and you have to wait for the lady to come back before you can open the warehouse." ”
It seems that if it weren't for the Xiao family coming back with new news, the Pei family couldn't wait to move Xiao Rongyue's marriage, and this Du Mansion really couldn't even slap a swollen face and become fat.
She nodded, signaling that Sanqi had done a good job.
Sanqi continued: "And the people on the chef's side also talked back and forth, saying that the monthly money of the autumn garden has not been allocated yet, and only a few dollars were left for the happy event before, but now there is nothing left, and the chef doesn't care about the food in this garden, and asks the lady to take the idea." ”
Camellia was coming in with a green drink, and he was startled when he heard it: "For a happy event, there is only a few dollars in the kitchen, what is enough?" It won't take more than two days to eat properly, and there will be a famine. ”
Xiao Rongyue was disgusted with the green drink, so she snorted, asked her to put the green drink on the table, and raised her eyebrows: "Good idea, this is to force me to marry myself to supplement the food in the garden." ”
This is to see that she is a bride, she must have no face to go to Chunhua Garden to ask for monthly money, and if she wants to eat in the garden, she can only open the box and take the money to use it, but as soon as the cage is opened, she will never want to stop it.
Sanqi bit his lip and muttered for a while: "If the lady is subsidized, inside and outside this garden, there are many people around San Langjun, will they have to rely on marriage in the future?" I'm afraid I can't open this opening. ”
Xiao Rongyue leaned on the couch, and her hot hand touched the cold and smooth bamboo curtain: "You think well, but it's not that you can't afford to raise them, it's just that they don't deserve it." ”
She wasn't interested in using her money to raise a pack of white-eyed wolves, and she didn't believe that everyone knew what was good or bad.
She thought for a moment, and then said, "Go and count the number of people who come to marry, and we will eat these people by ourselves." ”
"But whoever marries over, the monthly money is more than another one in the Du Mansion, as long as you do your best, you have a master in your eyes, and you won't eat inside and out, everyone can get errands, and there is another reward for doing good errands." Xiao Rongyue said while thinking, "There is only one point, I am my person who is on an errand here, my mouth must be strict and upright, and if I take the benefits, I still want to think about other things......"
She paused, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, and she curved a cool arc: "I heard that the miasma in Lingnan is very poisonous, sparsely populated, and there is a shortage of hard slaves to work and reclaim the famine, and I have a lot of people here to serve, so I sold it over there." ”
Where have Sanqi and Camellia heard this, they were so frightened that they nodded again and again: "The maid will go down and order people and explain to them." ”
It's just that what about the people from Du Huo and the Du Mansion that were originally left in this garden? Camellia asked softly again.
Xiao Rongyue chuckled: "Then naturally our Du Sanlang will take care of their food, but there is no reason to take the family of the husband and the husband, not to mention that the Du family is such a famous family, and it is impossible to do such a thing." ”
Sanqi and Camellia glanced at each other, and they both understood in their hearts, in this way, it is difficult for the people who marry the Xiao family to be won over by the Du family, and they will do their best to be errands, and the descendants of the Du family will inevitably be envious in their hearts, and it will be much easier to use them.
It's just that in this way, Du Jia Saburo Jun is afraid that he will be unhappy.
