Thirty-six, I became a punching bag again
Qiu Yu frowned: "Man? In the garden? ”
"Yes, I put a lantern on Mei Xiang, sent her to the gate of the garden, and walked to the corner outside the garden, and when the wind blew out, I heard the man's sigh from the other side of the wall, and I was startled. I asked who was over there, and the man walked away without answering, trampling on the leaves, surely not some ghost. Chun Ying replied, "Mei Xiang said, Master Hou and Young Master are all in front, there can be no man in the inner courtyard, and it is suspected that the little maid has sneaked in." But I thought, if it's a little girl, why sigh under the wall? When I came back, I quietly looked, there was a bamboo forest on the other side of the wall, this black light was blinding, who would have nothing to do with it? She blinked, approached Qiu Yu and asked in a low voice, "Sister, you are familiar with the affairs of the house, do you know who it is?" I've heard people say that no one is allowed to approach the houses on the hill and down the hill over there, is there some secret? ”
Qiu Yu's face changed while listening, and by the last sentence, he had calmed down, and glared at his sister angrily: "You just need to do what the masters order, what do you do with him so much?!" After a pause, he lowered his voice: "Those rooms...... It is true that there are people, but the Hou Ye has personally issued a strict order not to make a noise, so there are not many people in the house who know about it. I also happened to hear the old lady talking to Liuli, and mentioned a little bit, what is going on, I don't understand. You just need to remember that the identity of that person, except for the old lady, the Hou Ye, the wife and the three young masters, is only known to the two big housekeepers, and even the master of the second room may not be clear. Everyone thought that the rooms were haunted, that no one was allowed to approach them even during the day, and that no one inside would come out. Don't mention this to anyone, Mei Xiang, someone will tell her to shut up soon, you give me more cleverness! ”
Chunying's mouth opened wide in surprise, and she was a little excited in her heart. Is this a secret in the mansion? Who could it be? Usually this kind of avoidance and solitude is not a crazy aunt, or an ominous person in the family or something, but since it is a male voice, it is definitely not a woman, she remembers that the voice sounds quite young, could it be the illegitimate son of Master Hou?!
As soon as Qiu Yu saw her expression, she slapped her on the head hatefully: "Tell you to leave this matter alone, what are you thinking about now?!" Don't mention it to anyone, and don't ask about it! Don't even get close! You want to be beaten by the board, I'm afraid of being scolded by the master for not knowing how to discipline the girl! ”
Chunying's head ached, and she shrunk her neck: "Got it......" Qiu Yu glared at her a few times before carrying the lantern to the garden, and when she approached the corner, she paused at her feet, and then rushed over at a faster speed.
Chunying watched her sister leave, felt a little cold on her body, and hurriedly walked back, and suddenly heard several continuous fireworks in the sky in the direction of the front yard, and then returned to calm, she guessed that the fireworks were over, and hurriedly ran back to the pantry to light the fire.
After a while, Mei Xiang also came back, her face was still suspicious, and when she came to the pantry to lift the teapot, she hesitated for a moment before saying to Chunying: "Just forget about it, don't mention it to anyone." ”
Chunying naturally understood what was going on, nodded hurriedly, and helped her carry the teapot. As soon as Mei Xiang took over, she felt that the amount was wrong, and then looked at the two empty cups on the counter next to her: "Who ate the tea?" ”
Chunying hurriedly said: "My sister Qiuyu went to inspect everywhere, passed by the gate of our courtyard, saw that it was empty, thought it was empty, and thought there was no one, so she came in and took a turn, and when she saw me here, she stopped by the way and said a few words. ”
Mei Xiang smiled when she heard this: "It turns out that Qiu Yu is your sister, and I always think you are a little familiar, but I don't know who you look like." I only heard that you had a sister who worked as an errand with an old lady, but I didn't know it was her, but since then you have become closer to us, she has grown up with us since childhood. In the years when the third young master was raised in front of the old lady, we were like sisters with her. If you have any difficulties in the future, just look for me. ”
Chunying responded with a smile, but muttered in her heart. Although Qiu Yu also mentioned that Mei Xianglanxiang had a good relationship with the people over there, she didn't mention that they were like sisters? She did let herself get closer to Mei Xiang, but she didn't seem to be very kind to a few other people, and she specially told herself not to get too close to them. What's going on here? Even if it's Mei Xiang, if it's really good with Qiu Yu, how can she not know that she is Qiu Yu's sister? I was going to come in at the beginning of the year.
Chunying turned a few thoughts in her heart, and decided to do what Qiuyu said, so she smiled and opened the topic: "This pot is quite heavy, does my sister want me to help?" ”
"It's not necessary, you worked hard tonight, the whole courtyard is up and down, only you honestly stayed on an errand, didn't sneak away to play, you put out the charcoal fire, go back to the house first, rest early, Ming'er will reward money, I will keep a copy for you." Mei Xiang smiled kindly at Chunying, then picked up the teapot and went to the backyard.
Chunying rolled her eyes, happily extinguished the charcoal fire, picked up the snack box and went back to the room. The little girl's daily hot water supply was fixed, and she couldn't take a bath, so she took half a basin of water to wash her face and wipe her body, then took off her coat, scattered her hair, and slept comfortably.
In a daze, someone jerked her quilt open and pushed her a few times: "Get up!" Get me up! Chunying's body was in pain, she turned over, and when she saw that it was Qing'er, her face sank: "What's the matter?!" Are you finished?! ”
"Our sisters are still busy, you little girl actually dared to sleep first?" Qing'er rolled up her sleeves high, her face distorted, "The tea is cold, and the stove hasn't risen, are you a dead man?!" Why don't you get out of here?! You're not here to eat and drink for nothing? How dare you steal so openly if you're lazy?! ”
Chunying had a seizure in bed, so she simply stood on the bed, crossed her waist and condescended: "You figure it out!" Who's lazy?! Tonight, the entire Huanhuaxuan people have run out, except for Sister Meixiang, I am the only one left watching the stove! I'm looking at the tea stove in the upper room, the tea you drink and the stove you burn are not ****! You find the person in charge to spray it! It was Sister Mei Xiang who said, I can put out the stove and come back to sleep, if you don't believe it, go ask her! ”
Qing'er's eyes widened: "You, you ......" When has she ever seen a little girl talk back like this? The whole person was stunned.
"What am I?! I didn't be lazy, I didn't make trouble, and I came back to sleep after listening to my sisters' orders, are you dissatisfied with me, or do you have an opinion about Sister Meixiang's words?! Chun Ying immediately found a way to move the troubled waters eastward. Regardless of whether Mei Xiang is really good with Qiu Yu, it would be a pity not to use her as a shield at the moment.
Qing'er's face turned red: "You don't talk nonsense!" When did I have a problem with Mei Xiang? I'm scolding you people who don't work hard and try your best to please your master, don't sow discord here! ”
Chun Ying sneered and looked down at her: "When did you see that I didn't work hard, and tried my best to please my master and climb up?!" I don't know who is the one who hollows out his mind! After that, he glanced up and down at Qing'er, "Sister Qing'er, who works hard, where are you tonight?" Why don't you see your figure?! ”
Qing'er was speechless, trembling with anger, and her face was blue and white for a while. Xia Heyuan, who was in the same room as Chunying, was also present, and was so frightened that she hid in the corner of the house, not daring to make a sound, but the little girl who had a spirit reported to the backyard early, Mei Xiang hurried over, and when she saw this situation, she scolded: "What's the matter?" I'm still busy in the back, and I can't stop for a moment! She asked the little girl who was watching the excitement outside the house, and when she knew the reason, she stretched her face and said to Qing'er: "It was because I saw her working hard at night that I asked her to rest earlier." At such a young age, it is rare that she is not playful, and she is willing to be honest and errand, and we should be more sympathetic when we are sisters. You don't know, why don't you ask me first, and then come and scold people?! ”
Qing'er was originally exposed by Chunying, and she was already annoyed and angry, but now she was counted down by Mei Xiang, and her face suddenly couldn't hold back: "How do I know that such a trivial matter has to ask you first?" Everyone knows that you are the most decent in front of your master, and I can't compare to it, but I'm better than her! We were so busy that our feet didn't touch the ground, and she actually slept first?! I scolded her, and she still talked back to me! Is she justified? Why did she go to bed first? The third young master hasn't slept yet! ”
"He's already asleep, you talk quietly, don't bother him." Mei Xiang glanced at Qing'er lightly, "Of course, it's wrong for her to talk back, but you scold people indiscriminately, but it's your fault first." If you don't want to do something, just call someone to help, who will stop you? It's someone else's creation that others are idle, and you make a fuss like this, so that the third young master hears it, do you have a face? After that, Chao Chunying nodded: "Why don't you come down quickly?!" Look what you look like! Hurry up and give your sister Qing'er a companion. ”
Chunying had already sobered up, and although she was angry in her heart, she still got off the donkey down the slope and went to the ground, and said casually: "I'm sorry, Sister Qing'er." ”
Qing'er's face was still tense, and after listening to her apology, her eyelids didn't move, and she didn't respond. Mei Xiang's face sank: "What else are you going to do?" I don't care, wait for Ming'er and her sister Qiuyu to know, come and settle the account with you about the hosta, don't ask me to talk to you again! ”
"Qiuyu?" Qing'er was a little surprised, "She's Qiuyu's sister?!" She glanced at Chunying quickly, and Chunying raised her eyebrows: "I am, what's the matter?" Qing'er endured it, stomped her feet and said, "Even if it's Qiuyu's sister, I can't swallow this breath!" ”
"Where are you so angry?" Mei Xiang grabbed her and dragged her out, "That piece of hibiscus makeup flowers, the old wife once rewarded me with a piece, I haven't used it yet, you can take it if you want." The lanterns are not as good as what we do in our own house, there are hundreds of lights in the garden, tomorrow, I will accompany you to find Lao Li Tou, and Guan Bao will pull a car back! You were an old man in this courtyard, what are you angry with the newcomer? ”
Qing'er's face slowed down a little, but she was still unwilling in her heart: "I'm just depressed in my heart!" The third young master is too partial! Even if I'm nothing, you and Lanxiang are still there! He has good things, why did he give those two first?! I don't do any work, and I put Miss Qianjin's shelf all day long, we are in a hurry, she goes back to the house without saying a word and sleeps with her head covered, and her eyes are blind. What is better than me except for a face?! ”
Chunying originally saw them walking out, thinking that it was okay, but she didn't expect to hear such words, could it be that she was unlucky to be a punching bag again?
What is this called?
