Chapter Twenty-Seven: Duty

Zhu Jiu looked at the pear blossoms and was pleased, and Chun Xing saw this and stepped forward to get the New Year's reward.

On weekdays, I can't ask for anything to sprinkle and sweep the maids, and if the good words of the New Year's greetings are worn out, I don't necessarily ask for the rewards of other masters.

"Slave and maid thank the girl for the reward." This will be rewarded, Pear Blossom couldn't hide her thoughts, and was busy smiling and thanking the reward.

Zhu Jiu smiled slightly, and then stepped into the inner hall, and happened to meet the aunts and girls who had just come out to greet the New Year.

When they saw her, everyone looked at her slightly, and Zhu Jiu nodded and said goodbye to the aunts.

"She is Miss Zhu Jiu, she fell at the door before, and her sister Zhu Eight was taken care of that day." The aunts chatted when they came out.

The other girls hadn't seen Zhu Jiu much, but they had heard about Zhu Ba's girl.

Even if they are all girls in the door, they don't move around much if they have nothing to do in the past.

What's more, the housewife who entered the door three times was harsh, and she didn't like to go to another room by a girl from the door.

Therefore, the girls in the big room and the second room are very close, and they are not very familiar with the girls in the third room.

Zhu Jiu didn't hear the gossip of the aunts, so he entered the house and saluted to the second lady and spoke: "I wish Jiu to pay New Year's greetings to the second master's mother, and I wish the second master's mother a peaceful year and a year to the court." ”

"Don't be polite, take a seat." The second lady has a gentle temperament on weekdays, and her voice is gentle, and others feel comfortable when they hear it.

Zhu Jiu was not in a hurry to sit down with a smile on his face, and Yang Chunxing brought a New Year's gift, "I was supposed to come to give a New Year's gift yesterday, but something bad happened in the door and it was delayed." I thought to myself, the new year is better. I wish that I am still young for nine years and have nothing good, and I hope that the second mother will not be disgusted. ”

That being said, the New Year sent to the second lady is the best.

Mother Lin looked at the contents of the plate, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, these are the gold that came out of the Zhutang Courtyard.

"The girl has a good heart, and she thinks of my wife like this." Mother Lin said as she carried something and even looked at it in front of the second lady.

The second lady was surprised when she saw it, and then looked at Zhu Jiu: "The girl is still young, so it's better to keep these things for herself." ”

"If it weren't for Mrs. to send warmth in the cold winter that day, I'm afraid that Zhu Jiu wouldn't even have a chance to ask my sister for a place to live, and I would like to ask the second mother not to worry." Zhu Jiu's eyes were slightly red, and he was grateful to the second lady for understanding it.

Last time, she asked people to send some eye-catching clothes, not because she didn't want to pick out good ones.

But the mother of the three houses couldn't look at it, so she had to send the eye-catching one away.

But such a return gift is really too heavy, and the gold bead hairpin in that plate was given a pair as soon as it was given.

This gold bead hairpin is used in the high-quality gold bead inlay, which was originally offered by the Zhang family in Lingnan on the birthday of the ancestors, and the president also had twelve gold beads.

The second lady was about to talk about the return gift, but Zhu Jiu smiled again and said: "I fell at the door last time, if it weren't for the second master's mother's teaching, I wouldn't have been able to meet such a pleasing maid." ”

Saying this, Zhu Jiu saw that it was not too early, and after a little chat, he was going to Dafang to pay New Year's greetings, and he had to go to Zhutang Courtyard later.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I walked around the most, and my legs and feet had to be softened.

Seeing that the people were leaving, Mother Lin took the New Year's gift she had received, and couldn't help but say: "Madam, I wish Miss Nine to be really young, and there is no one to hide when she takes out things, in the end, she still has no aunt around and doesn't know what is valuable." ”

Listening to Mother Lin's words, the second lady didn't realize it.

"You call her stupid, but you don't know that people ask for help. The second and third rooms have never moved around much, if they don't take them out, how can they appear sincere? The second lady said, motioned to Mother Lin to accept the things, and finally explained: "Go and inform the sweeping maid, let people pack up and go to Nanxiang Garden!" ”

Mother Lin hadn't understood it before, but she understood it when she heard her wife open her mouth.

I felt puzzled in my heart, that pear blossom was just a sprinkler and there was nothing peculiar, why did Miss Zhu Jiu have to ask someone to go?

But after thinking about it carefully, I couldn't help but think that Miss Zhu Jiu's thoughtfulness was terrifying.

After all, Pear Blossom passed in the second room, and there was no maid in her yard before, and there was already one less person. It's reasonable to be so flattering, and the maid is just a sprinkler and doesn't get in the way.

But if it is from the second room, it is different.

Mother Lin secretly said that she wished Miss Nine to be smart, and she got her own wife to explain that she was busy packing up the pear blossoms.

...

At this time, Zhu Jiuyi went to the big house to pay New Year's greetings, and went to the Zhutang Courtyard again.

When I came back, my legs and feet were numb, so I had to be slightly supported by Chun Xing and went to Nanxiang Garden unhurriedly.

"Girl, the slave thinks that it would be good for Jin Zhuchai to send one alone, but now that both have been sent over, it is too expensive." Chun Xing was puzzled, how should the girl plan for herself.

Let's not talk about whether to marry the Shao family in the coming year, it is also a table for such things to add a dowry in the future.

The things sent on the day of the second room did solve the urgent need, if the girl couldn't wear decent clothes, how could she go to the Zhutang Temple on the day of Laba?

But even so, it shouldn't be so valuable.

"Not only can you please someone to come over, but you can also get the light of the second room, it is worth it." Zhu Jiu pursed his lips and smiled, not caring about it.

The master and servant went back to the courtyard, and Pear Blossom came over early to pack up her things.

Now he stood at the door, waiting for the girl to come back, and craned his neck for a long time.

Seeing that the pear blossom was here, Chun Xing had not yet heard the words, and suddenly understood.

"The girl is back, but it is cold outside, and she must be tired when she walks in and out." Rika hurriedly went over and helped her girl into the main house.

Chunxing also saw that Pear Blossom could do things, no, the girl prepared wormwood boiled water for the girl to soak her feet before she came back.

It was not in vain that the girl used a heavy gift to ask people over.

Just thinking about it, Chun Xing glanced out the door, and when she saw Nanli entering the house with pastries, she asked, "Where is the copper?" The girl will have lunch in a while, and after the lunch break, she will have to go to the Zhutang Courtyard to talk to the ancestors. ”

"Half an hour ago, I asked her to go to the treasury to fetch the silver charcoal, and for some reason she hasn't come back yet." Nan Lin said and brought the pastry into the house.

Chun Xing didn't ask any more questions, and was busy going to the small kitchen to prepare lunch.

Zitong went to the warehouse, but when he came back, he was called by his mother next to the seventh aunt in the door.

As soon as the people entered the courtyard, they were stopped by several maids, and their hands were pressed to the ground and they couldn't move.

Now there is still a deceased girl lying in the house, and the other courtyards are lit up to celebrate the door, but this courtyard is desolate and sad.

"I don't know what Aunt Seventh is looking for the slave maid, and the slave and maid don't remember what they have done....." Zi Tong's eyes turned red when he saw this battle, and people were also frightened.

The seventh aunt was wearing a black plain robe and sitting on a chair at this time, looking at the maid on the ground with a cold expression, and after a while, she waved her hand and sneered: "What are you doing, don't frighten her." ”

The maids and ladies let go of their hands, and even if they loosened the copper, they didn't dare to get up, so they had to tremble and bow their heads and kneel on the ground.
