The old lady finally remembered that she was still grounded, and asked the two grandmothers to tell her that she could walk around the yard early the next morning.

Qing Qian breathed a sigh of relief, she likes to stay in the yard and see no one, but this doesn't mean that she doesn't want to go out, this grounding order is not withdrawn, and it is estimated that she will eat one less meat!

In the morning, when Gu Qinglian had not yet arrived at the old lady's yard, Qingqian had already gone to ask for peace, the old lady didn't say much to her, just sniffed her injury briefly and didn't say much, patronizing and talking to Mama Zhao beside her.

The old lady's attitude towards her has not changed at all.

She sat for a moment, waiting for more people to greet her before leaving.

It's just that the old lady just removed her grounding, and she ran to the old lady, which inevitably caused some people in the house to chew the root of their tongues behind their backs, and Qingqian just pretended not to hear it, and pulled the peony back to the courtyard.

The mouth is born in someone else, and the most you can do is make others shut up where you can see it, which is just self-deception and does not have much effect.

In the afternoon, I have to take a little time to go to Gu Qingyuan, it is not very good to go empty-handed, at lunchtime, the food sent by the maid is a little too much to eat, she took advantage of this time to make a little rice cake, and sent it to Dongyuan in a while.

What Gu Qingyuan's purpose was for looking for her, Qingqian didn't know, but she didn't resist too much, it might also have something to do with the fact that she secretly took someone else's things.

After taking a nap, she went to the East Garden with Peony.

The location of the East Garden is not a good place in the house, but it is a little off, and the maids move around relatively little, which looks quite clean.

"When the courtyard was divided, the third lady chose to be here," Peony told her as she walked, "A little further past is the wall of the Gu Mansion." ”

The third lady should be happy, Qingqian thinks that she can move here for a few days, but almost no one comes here to disturb her.

Although Qiu Feng was unwilling, he was also waiting at the gate of the courtyard, and when he saw the eldest lady coming, he took her in.

When Qingqian entered, Gu Qingyuan was holding a purple sand teapot, and there was a small wooden plate on the table, and the tea boat, tea cup, tea lotus, and tea towel on the wooden plate were placed in an orderly manner, she remembered that Peony told her that the third lady's tea art was deeply loved by the old lady, and almost every time the old lady worshipped the Buddha, the third lady needed to make tea.

The girl of the Gu family is also versatile, except for her, the eldest lady who eats, drinks and has fun every day.

Qing Qian put the things in his hand on the table, Qing Yuan glanced at it before putting a freshly brewed tea in front of her and said, "Sister, don't come unharmed." ”

Qing Qian held the teacup and said, "What happened last time was really unintentional for me, and I ask my sister not to take it to heart." ”

Gu Qingyuan wiped a few drops of water dripping outside with a tea towel and said: "My sister naturally knows that my sister didn't mean to, and I blame me for being anxious. ”

These three young ladies can be very cautious, and they don't feel that there is anything wrong with nodding lightly.

"In a few days, it will be the birthday of the noble concubine, and then the mother will definitely announce that the old lady and a lady in the house will enter the palace." Qing Yuan took a sip of tea and said in a low voice, "Sister has lifted the grounding now, and the old lady should let you go with you." ”

If it weren't for Gu Qingyuan's reminder, she would really have forgotten about this matter, and she thought about whether she should prepare for this when she returned to the courtyard.

"Thank you sister for reminding me."

Qing Qian squinted his eyes and smiled friendlyly, and casually talked about some trivial things in his daughter's family, Gu Qingyuan asked about the role of jade oil onions, and Qing Qian was not stingy, and told Qing Yuan about the use and efficacy of this thing.

The two talked happily, Gu Qingyuan occasionally glanced at Qingqian's face, Sister Yan has really changed a lot, the arrogant and domineering look on her face has long disappeared without a trace, she took the lid of the teacup and wiped the tea leaves in the matcha water and smiled.

It didn't take long for Qiu Feng to come in and say, "Second Miss is here." ”

Gu Qinglian, both of them were shocked, Gu Qingyuan's eyebrows were even more raised, and she turned around to look at Qingqian, she was only slightly surprised.

Qing Qian was naturally surprised, she didn't expect Gu Qingyuan to let Gu Qinglian come too, but seeing that Qing Yuan was also panicked, then it seemed that she should have thought wrong.

Gu Qinglian should have come uninvited, but it was a coincidence, she didn't say anything, and she had already seen Gu Qinglian come in with a frown.

"So my sister is also there." Gu Qinglian smiled at her, "A few days ago, the old lady gave Qinglian some new tea, and I was thinking about giving it to my sister and sister, since my sister is also there, I will save this tea and send it to Luomei Pavilion for my sister." ”

Qinglian instructed the maid to take out two small boxes and put them on the table, the two poured out a thank you, and Qingqian asked Peony to put the boxes away first.

Gu Qinglian looked at Gu Qingyuan's tea set and said, "Sister, this tea set should be a purple sand filament pattern rewarded by the old lady, and the old lady also rewarded Qinglian a few days ago." ”

"It seems that the dew from a small jar buried in the ground will be dug up in a few days." Qinglian continued.

Since Gu Qinglian came, she didn't know anything about it, and she didn't know much about tea sets or anything, so she left Dongyuan after a few polite words.

Qing Yuan asked Qiu Feng to send her out, and after the little girl took her out, she looked at her angrily and said, "Miss, if you want to bully my young lady again, I can only tell you that there is no way." ”

This girl is cute, Qingqian couldn't help but smile, and Peony interjected: "My young lady is disdainful of bullying your young lady." ”

These two maids are both upright masters, and they don't care about it, but they suddenly thought of something, turned around and asked, "The second sister should have been called by you, right?" ”

She just asked casually, Qiu Feng suddenly became nervous, pinched the sachet in his hand and asked, "How do you know." ”

She didn't know, but this stupid maid who had a fight with Peony really told her directly, but this maid also said confidently: "Even if the second miss has an accident, Aunt Wang has the backing, what about our young lady?" Miss's mother, Qu, is just the last aunt in the house, if it weren't for Miss, she would still be living in that dilapidated yard. ”

This is very reasonable, Qiu Feng raised his head and said: "And Qiu Feng didn't let the second lady come over, but just mentioned it a little when I met Sister Feng Jian today." ”

She puffed out her cheeks very unconvinced, and asked Peony to take out the tea and said, "This is also for your young lady, I don't need it." ”

Qiu Feng opened her mouth, and the eldest lady seemed to be a little different from what she imagined.

There are no maids who came out of Luomei Pavilion who punched and kicked them at every turn, as they said.

She walked back with the box in her hand, and Qing Qian left directly.

In just one day, she met the old lady and Gu Qingyuan, she didn't have any special feelings for the old lady, the old lady didn't have a bad heart, she just didn't like her, and she was asked to stay in the yard before so that she could recuperate. Gu Qingyuan looked quiet and could intersect, but for Gu Qinglian......

As soon as she came to this place, the first thing she did was related to Gu Qinglian, to be honest, she didn't have a good impression of this second sister.

When she returned to the yard, it was almost time for dinner, and Qing Qian rested in the yard for a while before waiting for the kitchen maid to bring dinner.

But until the time of the unitary, I didn't see the maid from the kitchen coming, and if it didn't arrive at the usual time, the maid would come.

"Peony, go ask about the kitchen." There may be something going on in the kitchen, just like the old lady in the previous days of worshiping the Buddha, because the old lady had to prepare the vegetarian food that the old lady wanted, so the day of dinner would be a little later.

Peony didn't go long before she came back and said, "Miss, the maid over there in the kitchen said that the maid had already sent it to the maid in the yard before dinner arrived." ”

When Shen Shi was young, she had just withdrawn from the East Garden, so wasn't it taken by the other maids in the courtyard? Qing Qian was a little puzzled, there were not a few maids in the yard itself, and she had hardly seen those little maids, and she also told Peony not to waste her strength to trachea these maids, and she wanted to invite a man to enter the house and pick a few new maids in a few days.

"Those little hooves again?" Peony Yaoqi's face turned a little red, "Usually they don't work, but now they even have to swallow the master's food." ”

Looking at the peony like this, it seems that this thing has not happened once or twice.

Qing Qian sneered, before she asked Peach Blossom to return to the backyard, I thought that this girl would not be long before she came back to explain the matter, but after such a month, she couldn't even see the shadow of the person.

"The maids who were left in the yard when the young lady was unconscious before, they looked for the slave maid, because you were unconscious, so they wanted to share your meal, but the slave refused several times, and then the slave maid did not receive the kitchen meal in the next few days." Peony said that she wanted to go to the backyard to have a look, but Qingqian quickly stopped her.

"Miss, this group of maids is getting bolder and bolder now, do you still want to be slaves?"

Qingqian shook her head, she could compromise on anything except eating, but what was the use of going to the backyard like this? Knowing that those maids were eating, could it be that they were hungry for the same time as Gu Qingqian's previous practice? It doesn't make sense at all. What's more, those maids will not admit their guilt.

"Let's go quietly, don't alarm the maids."

The backyard has not been taken care of for a long time, and the peony has also moved to the side room of the pavilion, and only those maids are left here.

The lights of the house were on, and the two of them quietly passed by, and they heard the noise inside.
