Chapter 134: Qingge Qiaoxiao (4)
Yuquan's little concubine is called Kidney Bean.
Kidney Bean is loyal, thinking that Aunt Sun treats her well, and will go over sooner or later to say hello, and also help her rub her legs and beat her back. Chana Kidney Dou'er's father was gone, so Aunt Sun generously rewarded her with fifty taels of silver. Kidney Beans are very grateful, fifty taels is a huge amount of money in the hands of the next person. According to the rules of the Shifu, if the concubine who has a child in the family and has a new funeral of her parents, brother and sister-in-law, the reward will not exceed ten taels. If it is a concubine bought from outside, it should not exceed twenty taels. As soon as this Aunt Sun gave it, it was a generous amount, a full fifty taels. Kidney Bean is a child born in a family, and if her father is gone, she will have no family.
Kidney Douer took the fifty taels of silver given by Aunt Sun and gave her father a funeral, which was the envy of the people in the house for a while. Kidney Bean'er got face, and although she fell out of favor in Yuquanfang, she also knew from now on that she still had a smooth way to rely on Aunt Sun. She was not a person who would flatter the rudder when she saw the wind, but she also greeted Aunt Sun wholeheartedly.
These days, when this kidney bean saw Aunt Sun lowering her figure and going to serve in his wife's house, she felt pity in her heart. In Kidney Dou'er's heart, Aunt Sun is majestic and magnificent, her appearance is peugeot, and she is cool and generous, and she can't find any fault with her body. But Mrs. Yu is troublesome, she has been staying in the temple for so many years, so she has been staying, why do you want to come back? In her heart, Aunt Sun is her serious mother-in-law and the hostess of this house. Now that the mother-in-law is compromised, in order to protect herself, she has put down all her face and figure, and she just wants to serve Mrs. Yu, in the end she is the wife. But they are all the same concubines, why does the mother-in-law have to serve Aunt Wen?
This Aunt Wen's status is only lower than that of her mother-in-law, in terms of appearance, ability, and momentum, what point is she as good as Aunt Sun? These days, the second master Yuquan is like being evil, going out early and returning late, and he doesn't come back all night, I don't know what serious things he is doing outside. Kidney Bean is just one of Yuquan's many concubines, and she is not favored, so naturally she doesn't dare to ask, and it is not her turn to ask.
She felt even more sorry for Aunt Sun: This is her in-law's son, but seeing that the second master doesn't take his in-law to heart, it also makes Kidney Dou'er feel cold, so she volunteered to see Mrs. Yu, what can she help Aunt Sun share. For example, when it comes to pouring the bucket every night, she pours it. For example, when she waited for Aunt Wen to sleep at night, she also came.
Ladies and gentlemen, Yuquan is not in the mansion these days, it is not that he is willing to fall. Yuquan's behavior is out of line, but since Shi Yuan came back, he still restrained a lot. Yuquan didn't want to be caught by Shi Yuan.
On that day, after thinking about it, Shi Yuan called Yuquan over, scolded him bitterly, told him to kneel, and asked him to write a letter of repentance, and at the same time closed the door of the study, and no one was allowed to come in. Although Yuquan knelt down, he did not repent, and still used some insincere slippery words to prevaricate Shi Yuan. Shi Yuan was annoyed and slapped him a few times. No one in history knows about this. Shi Yuan asked Yuquan to kneel for a night and went back to his room to rest. When he woke up the next day, Shi Yuan shared some of the construction of the Weaving, Printing and Dyeing Bureau with him, and ordered him to go out to pick craftsmen and choose a suitable address.
These are the reasons why Yuquan is like a headless fly these days.
Yuquan didn't want to go out, this was a drudgery. But after thinking about it, I just went out to have a good time, and I was not in the house, but I ended up at ease. He explained the search to his entourage, such as Li Xiangui. This Li Xiangui also had a bitter face, full of reluctance. Li Xiangui's son is in Cao Ying, and his heart is in Han. Now he is very slack in his work and often makes mistakes. Yuquan doesn't care, let Li Xiangui do it at will. Shi Yuan didn't urge this, he gave his son a chance to experience. The later the son came back, the more it showed that he was paying attention to what he was doing.
On this day, Kidney Dou'er thought about it, straightened her clothes, combed her hair, and came over to see Mrs. Yu.
This surprised Madame Jade.
If it weren't for a mother-in-law beside Wang Gui's family who told her that this woman was a concubine in the second master's Yuquan room, Mrs. Yu would only feel that she was faced, and she didn't know where she was on an errand in the house. Now, Mrs. Yu is in charge, although she is low-key and not diligent, but in the end, she has recognized all the people in the house. Wang Guijia said again: "Mrs. doesn't know, there are many such things in the second master's room." But it's just Chao Qin Dusk, and when you get tired of it, you will throw away your hand, so don't be surprised. ”
Madame Jade nodded, and ordered someone to bring Kidney Beans in to speak. Just now she looked through the curtain, and saw that this woman had a look of resentment, strange and wondering.
Kidney beans also came in.
"Kidney Bean's greeting to my wife." Kidney Dou'er still lowered her head and kowtowed a few times to Mrs. Yu's rules.
Madame Jade told her to look up and look at her carefully.
Although this woman is neatly dressed, she is half-used and not new. Although the hair is combed smoothly, there are no expensive hairpins. Thinking of such a posture, because it was a whim of Yuquan, after the excitement passed, he left it behind.
Mrs. Yu asked Kidney Dou'er to sit down, and Kidney Dou'er said she didn't dare, she lowered her head, and suddenly knelt down for Mrs. Yu again, and her voice was still choked: "Mrs., you can do well, and let Aunt Sun go back to the house." Although she looks young, she is also a mother-in-law. For example, I will do trivial things such as serving people, such as pouring a gong bucket, for her. ”
Mrs. Yu immediately understood that this was to hold Qu'er for Aunt Sun, and after thinking about it, she smiled.
The Wang Guijia was on the side, but he was not happy: "You are wrong." Aunt Sun is not your mother-in-law, your mother-in-law is really your wife in front of you! You're calling it wrong, don't you kowtow to your wife quickly! ”
Kidney Dou'er didn't dare to disobey Mrs. Yu, so she obediently kowtowed a few times, and knocked hard.
Mrs. Yu said, "Get up, call whoever you like to be your mother-in-law, and don't do my business." ”
In Mrs. Yu's heart, only Mo'er's future daughter-in-law can call her mother-in-law. If Yuquan marries a wife, then his daughter-in-law comes to say goodbye and calls her mother-in-law, and Mrs. Yu will not refuse. Kidney beans are not counted, whether they are born in the family or bought from outside, as long as they are concubines, there is no such thing as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The concubine is not a righteous person in the house, and she is not a decent daughter-in-law.
Kidney Beans didn't dare to get up. The first time she saw Madame Yu, although she was timid, the words she said were orderly. Kidney Dou'er is not a person with excellent articulate language and is illiterate, but because of Aunt Sun, when she came to see Mrs. Yu this time, she had already put life and death out of the way, so she was very clever when she talked about it.
"Madam, you are good, and let Aunt Sun go back, I will serve you."
Wang Gui's family couldn't stand it anymore, and this kidney bean just begged for Aunt Sun, as if the Sun family had suffered a lot of grievances in Mrs. Sun's house.
"I said kidney beans, your head was flattened by a splint, it's not good, everyone in the house knows that Mrs. is sympathetic to her subordinates, and she is the most lenient. Where does Mrs. want Aunt Sun to serve, it is her own comfortable days, but when she returns to the master, she wants to come over, and she can't drive away. You came to see Mrs. inexplicably, and said this inexplicably, you are quite bold and confused. ”
A sentence lowered Kidney Bean'er's head. Her face turned red, her whole body began to tremble, she kowtowed again, and explained carefully: "Mrs. Mo blame, Mrs. Mo blame, Kidney Douer just can't see her aunt suffering, and she wants to help her." If my wife agrees, and let me go with my aunt, I will take care of her. ”
Wang Guijia even smiled: "Then Aunt Sun came to serve in Mrs. Sun's house, now, you said that you want to serve Aunt Sun, what kind of rule is this?" ”
She waved her hand and reminded Kidney Bean not to talk such nonsense, which made Mrs. unhappy, so she should leave quickly.
Kidney Beans refused to leave, and knelt there begging.
Mrs. Yu thought for a moment, nodded, stopped Wang Gui's family, and said, "Okay, if you want to go, then it's up to you." You help her, but you can share some of it. ”
Wang Guijia was surprised: "Madam, how can this be done?" ”
Madam Yu said lightly: "Why not?" And let her go. ”
Kidney Dou'er was also surprised, because she didn't expect Mrs. Yu to change her mind and happily agreed to her. Kidney Dou'er choked up again: "Madam, Kidney Dou'er will follow Aunt Sun, and she must be serving diligently in the morning and evening." ”
"Hmm. You go over. I think she'll be glad to know that there are faithful people like you around her. ”
Kidney Beans then withdrew.
At that time, Wang Gui's family didn't understand: "Madam, she went to serve Aunt Sun, not to serve you, and Aunt Wen." I really don't understand. ”
Mrs. Yu smiled: "Kidney Dou'er is desperate, which proves that this Sun family still has a set of tricks." Isn't Sun going to some Taoist temple? I saw that she saw this kidney bean, and she must like it, and she will definitely take her with her. ”
