Chapter 65 If you can't carry it, you have to carry it
Sending off the reluctant aunt and uncle, Mai Xiaohuan looked up at the sky, yes, it's time for dinner again, don't wait for the "distinguished guest" to open his mouth, let's be conscious!
As soon as she grabbed the apron, she heard Dou Liangfu laugh and groan: "Xiao Huan! You have rested at noon today, I have already booked a banquet in the county, and I will send it over in a while. ”
That dare is good, Mai Xiaohuan said thank you, and said a few words with the eldest sister and went back to the house. I will go back to Qingcheng County in another day, thinking that I will have to face the cold eyes of those people and Zhou Yue's pickiness after I go back, Mai Xiaohuan rubbed his forehead vigorously, who can tell him how to break this situation!
"Hey!"
Mai Xiaohuan looked back and saw the second sister walking in with a sigh, what a cheerful and cheerful personality she usually is! In order to go back, I also sighed for a long time, and I was all affected by myself.
"Second sister, don't go back with you this time, I can handle it alone." Mai Xiaohuan glanced outside and said in a low voice.
Mai Xiaofang shook her head like a rattle, if Zhou Yue's incident hadn't happened, she really didn't want to follow. In such a situation, how can I rest assured that I will let my sister go back alone? It is better to face difficulties with two people together than to stand alone.
I'm stubborn enough, and the second sister is even more stubborn than herself! Mai Xiaohuan was afraid that people outside would hear it, so she didn't dare to say too much, so she stopped thinking about persuasion. She has thought a lot about it in the past few days, and in the future, she can do her part in front of Zhou Yue, no matter how sarcastic he is, he just listens to it, and he won't lose a piece of meat anyway.
Listening to the meaning of his father-in-law, he is quite favored in front of the emperor and the queen mother, and it is estimated that he will not live here for a long time. With the excuse of accompanying the county lord to study, no one should doubt his literacy anymore!
That's enough, everything you do now is to lay the foundation for making a fortune in the future, the prince's son-in-law and the county lord are all passing by the clouds, and they will disappear in a few days.
After some mental construction, Mai Xiaohuan exhaled a long breath, hugged the second sister and said, "Thank you!" "Turn around and come out of the house. This girl, Mai Xiaofang also cleaned up her mood, rubbed her face, and walked out with a smile.
Mai Xiaoyuan pulled a younger sister with one hand, and asked cautiously under Dou Liangfu's signal: "We heard from Young Master Tang that the county lord's place of residence has come to the guest again, right?" ”
The sisters' eyes brushed towards Tang Yujun, can't this person stop a little? Why do you have to mention Zhou Yue!
Tang Yujun lowered his head when he was stared at, he didn't dare to look at the sisters, he and Dou Liangfu had nothing to talk about at all, so they had to talk about the son.
Mai Xiaohuan knew that this must have been instructed by the "tofu" brother-in-law to ask the eldest sister, and if she didn't say a word, the eldest sister would not be able to make a difference. She pondered for a moment, looked at Dou Liangfu and said: "There is indeed a distinguished guest in the Lotus Courtyard, as for his identity, name and I don't know anything about it, he only stays in the front yard on weekdays, there are soldiers guarding there, and we haven't seen this big man." ”
Mai Xiaofang also knows that Zhou Yue's affairs are less to say and less wrong, so it's best not to mention it, and let her sister deal with her eldest brother-in-law! Don't mention Zhou Yue's name, just when I think of him, I want to tremble.
"What is the county lord's attitude towards him, there should be a relationship between them!" Dou Liangfu asked with his eyes shining.
My brother-in-law! Mai Xiaohuan doesn't know how to evaluate him, some people are like the sun in the sky, you can only watch and look up from afar, and never want to get close, even if you get close, it won't do anything except turn into ashes and soil.
Don't look at Zhou Yue's young age, if he stands here today, the eldest brother-in-law may not dare to breathe in fright, and he wants to have a relationship with that guy, in the next life, or in the next life! If he wasn't from another world, if he hadn't watched too much on TV, he would probably be like the second sister, and he wouldn't even have the courage to look at him, if that was the case, wouldn't he have offended him!
Seeing Mai Xiaohuan in a daze, Dou Liangfu was in a hurry, and it was not good to interrupt rashly, so he had to repeat his old trick and hand his daughter-in-law a look and ask her to ask.
Before Mai Xiaoyuan opened his mouth, Mai Xiaohuan came back to his senses and said lightly: "What is the identity of the people, what is my identity, where do I dare to ask about the county lord and the son, on the first day we entered the lotus courtyard, there was a grandmother who warned me that in addition to accompanying the county lord to study, other things are not allowed to be inquired, after school, my second sister and I will stay in our own residence, where do we dare to walk around!" ”
Dou Liangfu closed his mouth in disdain, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed in his heart for the two sisters-in-law, what a rare opportunity, if it was himself, even if he went to pour the toilet for the county lord every day, he would have to seize every opportunity to have a good relationship. As for that distinguished guest, if you inquire carefully, how can you not know any useful news! It seems that he overestimated these two little village girls.
Mai Xiaohuan didn't care what he thought in his heart, after eating and sending away the eldest sister's family, she pulled the old lady and warned her that no one could give this year's wild pepper seeds at home, as for sweet potatoes, the eldest sister would give her some if she wanted, and if the neighbors wanted to, let them dig in the mountains by themselves this year, and then give them away when there were more in the family next year.
Mai Wang and Shan Cuihua nodded again and again, the girl has already signed a contract with the Tang family, and she is responsible for breaking the contract, and if she doesn't get it right, she may be imprisoned, she understands this.
The next day, Mai Xiaohuan packed up a large number of special products from Shaxi Village, saying that they were giving them away, but in fact, a large part of the things here were prepared for their sisters themselves.
After returning to Qingcheng County, Mai Xiaohuan went to the county guard mansion first, just in time for the Lin family to go out, put down the things, politely refused the housekeeper's enthusiasm to stay, and gave the things to Tang Yujun a part, and the sisters were ready to hire a carriage to go to the lotus courtyard.
Tang Yujun originally thought that in addition to the ones given to the county guard, the rest of the specialties would be his own! Why did these two people take so many things back to the Lotus Temple? Something can't be wrong, right?
He asked Sanhe to drive a car and send the things back first, and then asked the coachman to load the rest of the things into the car, insisting on sending the sisters back to the lotus garden.
"You can't hide anything from me, do you! Isn't the Lotus Temple for food and shelter? Why do you have to bring so much food yourself! ”
"You don't get tired of eating big fish and meat every day! The two of us still like the food at home, and this stay is for three months, of course, we need to prepare more. ”
Is that so? Tang Yujun felt that something was wrong, and he was powerless to refute Mai Xiaohuan.
"I can't let my cooking skills be rusty, if I have no other way out in the future, I still want to go to your soup family to be a chef! Don't be on the bill when the time comes! In order to dispel Tang Yujun's doubts, Mai Xiaohuan had no choice but to continue to make up reasons.
This is true, Tang Yujun believed Mai Xiaohuan's words, sent them to the Lotus Courtyard, and rewarded the little man who guarded the door, until everything was moved into the gate, and there was no excuse to stay, so he left step by step, and did not forget to tell the sisters before leaving, and he would come to pick them up next time.
Next time...... Mai Xiaohuan didn't dare to think deeply about tomorrow's things, let alone next time. The two sisters looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and went back to the small courtyard where they lived with their things on their shoulders, and after putting their things away, they greeted the steward in the county lord's courtyard, and the two of them didn't know whether they should go to Yifeng Garden to say something.
If you don't report it, with Zhou Yue's careful eyes, you may find fault again; After reporting, maybe he will arrange things for himself tonight, but he said that he should let the two of them double their work and make up for what they owe in the past six days?
It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, Mai Xiaohuan went outside Yifeng Garden, and asked the guards to help him tell Xiaoquanzi or Xiaofuzi, and said that he was back, and if there was something, he would go to the courtyard to inform him.
No matter how aggrieved I was, I had to eat, Mai Xiaohuan stewed rice, chopped some meat filling to make meatball soup, and boiled meat and eggs in a small pot on the side. In case you go to work at night, you always have to replenish some calories when you come back, others don't feel sorry for yourself, you have to know how to take care of your body, tired, tired, in addition to your own sin, others are the loss of a hair will not have.
Zhou Yue, who was leaning on the bench and pretending to sleep, was disturbed by a messy footsteps, opened his peach blossom eyes rippling in the autumn water, pursed his red lips and waited for the culprit to enter the door.
Xiao Fuzi stopped at the door, and the probe was meeting the master's eyes with ice slag. He shrunk his neck, knowing that he was in trouble again, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "The two girls of the Mai family are back, they just asked the guards to help spread the word, and if there is something, they will go to the small courtyard to find someone." ”
These two girls didn't hide and didn't come back, and they didn't dare to report to Yifeng Garden, yes, for their sake, tonight ......
"Xiaofuzi, you go and spread the word, let the two of them clean up the fallen leaves outside my study tonight, remember that not a single fallen leaf is allowed to fall." I seem to have said that I won't be embarrassed for her, if they do a good job tonight, they will fulfill their promises from tomorrow.
When Xiaofuzi came over to pass the word, Mai Xiaohuan just put down the dishes and chopsticks, and Mai Xiaofang couldn't swallow a mouthful of soup and a ball in his mouth, nor did he spit it out.
Seeing that it was about to get dark, Yue Gongzi also let himself and his sister not be allowed to pull down a fallen leaf, which ...... Is this clearly embarrassing?
Mai Xiaohuan told Xiaofuzi that he knew and would go in a while. Zhou Yue didn't let himself live in peace, and he didn't want to stay stable.
Xiaofuzi sniffed hard, it was so fragrant! I didn't expect these two girls to cook really well, the isolation of the county lord, and the difficulties of the son didn't knock them down, how do I think the two of them are getting more and more moisturized these days! Just now, I wanted to come over and cook with them.
No, you must not be soft-hearted at this time, everything must be based on the preferences of the son, since the two girls have provoked the son, they should be punished, and they will be fated to be overcome, if they can't stand it? They can only blame themselves for their bad luck.
If Mai Xiaofang knew Xiaofuzi's thoughts, he would have been blasted out of the yard long ago, with Zhou Yue's means and the strength to toss, who could carry it!
