Chapter 10: The Sorrowful Concubine of Cui Mansion (8)
When Master Cui heard her mention Cui Yuying, his eyes showed obvious disgust; Wang pinched the embroidered handkerchief and glanced at Master Cui quickly; As for Cui Er, who was chubby on the side, the old god was still nibbling on crab roe buns.
Mama Li and Hongying, who were waiting behind the two of them, behaved exactly like Wang, and they also glanced at Master Cui quickly, as if they wanted to see something on his face.
"What are you doing early in the morning with a dead man? Bad luck! After eating, go back to your yard to get married, don't come out and shake around if you have nothing to do! ”
Master Cui reprimanded, looked back at Hongying behind him, and stood up with the little hand she stretched out to support. I don't know if it's because the little hands are too soft and the maid is too delicate, his irritability has obviously faded a lot.
Meng Hui swept the expressions of the two, his eyes couldn't help but squint slightly, and when he looked at the unaware Wang again, he automatically added a bright green hat to her.
Master Cui threw up his sleeves and walked to the door just in time to meet Cui Yuwei, and listened to a few words of flattery, and his anger was a little smoother. "You are still sensible, go to Wenfu tomorrow to behave well, if you are appreciated, I will reward you when you come back."
Master Cui left a few words and walked away, Cui Yuwei happily entered the door, and saw Cui Yuzhen, who was eating buns at the low table, as if she had seen a ghost.
"Why are you ......" Seeing Wang's gloomy expression, she quickly swallowed the nonsense she was about to ask, and hurriedly stepped forward to curtsy, "Daughter greets mother." ”
"Well, let's sit down and eat some." Wang didn't see the clue from Master Cui's face, she was both a little relaxed and a little puzzled, but she didn't want to show it in front of the two girls, so she quickly retracted her thoughts.
"I've eaten in the house, and I've come to serve my mother." Cui Yuwei knew that the Wang family was not sincerely invited, and the good things in the main house had always been prepared for Master Cui and Cui Er, even if there was a surplus, it would end up in the mouths of Mama Li and Hongying.
Cui Yuwei twisted small steps to come behind Wang's family, and gave her vegetables with Mama Li, and at the same time did not forget to glance at Meng Hui with disdain, and said in her heart that this girl was really hungry, and she actually kicked her nose and cheek to eat in the main house! When the time comes, people who offend don't know why!
Meng Hui doesn't care what Cui Yuwei thinks of her, Cui Yuzhen's body is really bad, it is a little bit to make up for it and come back, just now Master Cui asked her to finish eating and then roll. What's more, now the thoughts of the Wang family and Mama Li's mother and daughter are all on the figure in the bamboo forest, and they can't care about this little thing at all.
She and Cui Er stared at each other, one bun per person, you take a bite and I will take a bite, and soon ate up the last half of the cage.
When Wang finished eating, he saw the two girls in the same room, and he remembered the two aunts in the house, and he felt uncomfortable again. "Yuwei, how is your poem prepared? When the time comes, you will be compared with the girls of Gongzi, and you can't lose face in front of Gongzi Wen. ”
The Wang family obviously spoke to Cui Yuwei, but his eyes always looked at Meng Hui, and when he saw her hanging her head, he didn't react in particular, so he simply said to her: "Yuzhen, your wedding dress should also be prepared, and when Lord Zheng makes up his mind, the good days will come." ”
"Alas, you all have grown up one by one, and you are going to say kiss, and my mother is really happy and reluctant in her heart." Wang pretended to dip his eyes with an embroidered handkerchief, and Cui Yuwei behind him hurriedly made a shy and timid look, holding her affectionately and coquettishly.
One is with the popular little fresh meat in Kyoto, you and me, and the other is about to marry an old widower to fill the house, Meng Hui thought to himself, if he really changed himself, he would definitely have a fish to die and the net would be broken.
It's a pity that for Cui Yuzhen's later life, she can't act impulsively, and occasionally adding a little block to Master Cui and the Wang family is a risk, and she can't make more "crazy" moves.
"Mother, don't talk about it, my daughter doesn't want to get married, she has to serve her mother for the rest of her life-" Cui Yuwei rubbed on Wang's arm, like a well-trained pet.
Meng Hui wanted to vomit, stood up, and resigned resignedly. "Mother, I...... I'll go back to the yard first......"
"Go, don't listen to your father's angry words, just come in the morning and tell me what you want to eat. Also, I have to go and see Aunt Yun more often, she remembers you. ”
Wang's tone was much softer, because as soon as she thought of Master Zheng, her mind cleared up, and looking at Meng Hui's eyes was like looking at a gold ingot.
Meng responded yes, curtsied, got up and walked out of the door with Ning Zhu's hand, and said in his heart that this time the harvest is not small.
"Girl, go back to the yard first?"
"Don't be busy, go and see Aunt Yun," Aunt Yun and Aunt Li's courtyard were separated by a wall, Meng Hui wanted to ask about the situation on the night of the accident, and went to Aunt Li's courtyard to sit down, "Ninglu will go with me, you secretly inquire about the good things you said yesterday." ”
Ning Zhu nodded, walked out of the main courtyard and separated from the two of them, and walked towards the kitchen by herself.
Meng Hui and Ning Lu came to the outside of Aunt Yun's small courtyard, and just as they were about to knock on the door, they saw the angry Cui Da stepping out of Aunt Li's courtyard next door.
"Big brother ......" Meng Hui hung his head and made a pitiful appearance, no different from Cui Yuzhen when she saw Cui Da.
I thought he would ignore it as usual, but he stopped in front of her.
"You...... Third sister, you usually make friends with the eldest sister, right? ”
Meng Hui replied softly: "Yes, I don't know what the eldest brother commands?" ”
Cui Da is tall, slightly fat, and his eyeballs are bulging, and he is completely a young version of Master Cui. His expression at this time was very complicated, as if he was angry, and as if he was afraid.
"It's nothing, just ask," Cui Da frowned suddenly, flicked his sleeves and was about to leave, just walked two steps and turned his head and said, "What didn't the eldest sister tell you?" ”
"Say what?" Meng Hui heard it in a fog, and the confusion on his face this time was not pretended.
Seeing this, Cui Da suddenly relaxed a lot, and it was rare to smile a little. "It's nothing, you go and get busy with you, I'm leaving!" He walked briskly across the path, and soon came to the edge of the gold-inlaid jade bamboo forest, and his steps paused slightly, and he stopped for a moment before stepping away again.
Judging from the reactions of Master Cui and Cui Da, the footprints of the bamboo forest must be undoubtedly Cui Da. Meng Hui was immersed in his thoughts, and was shouted by Ning Lu before he came back to his senses, and walked into Aunt Yun's courtyard door with his skirt.
"Girl—" Aunt Yun was surprised and delighted when she saw her enter the door, and floated out with her feet on her feet as if dancing.
Seeing her happy appearance, Meng Hui smiled. "Auntie, I'll come and see you."
"Come in and sit down! Yu'er, hurry up and make tea! Aunt Yun took her hand and sat down on the beauty couch. Fortunately, you asked me not to listen to Aunt Li, last night the master went to her yard, it seems that because she intervened in some marriage, he lost his temper! ”
