Chapter 197: The Old Man
Here Ruan Yunsi watched his back disappear outside the door, couldn't help but close his eyes and take a deep breath, smiled bitterly for a long time, and muttered to himself: "Ruan Yunsi, Ruan Yunsi, it's hard to find a foot in a hit, you want to be free, you want to be alone, but God just can't tolerate you." (Every day Chinese.) [.360118 point] Once at a time, you can't help yourself, your feet are deep in the mud, what else can you do except go down? ”
It's just that no matter how unwilling you are to complain in your heart, it is useless after all, how can this arrangement of fate be reversed by manpower? Fortunately, Ruan Yunsi has never been the one who complains, otherwise she would not have had the courage to run away from marriage and leave home that day. Because he only sighed softly, he sat down in his chair and closed his eyes in contemplation.
After about a quarter of an hour, after sorting out all the chaos in the house, she got up and walked out of the house.
I saw a maid waiting there, and when I saw her, I couldn't help but pounce on her, grabbed her and looked her up and down for a while, and then wept and said: "It's the third girl, it's really the third girl, the slave maid heard in the backyard that the master found the third girl back, and the slave didn't dare to believe it, but she didn't expect it...... Three girls, you ...... Why couldn't you think about it that day? You know that the slave maid has not been able to sleep well for a night for so many years, and as soon as she closes her eyes, she always dreams that the girl is being bullied outside, woo woo woo ......"
After a long time, Ruan Yunsi also recognized it for a while before she recognized that this girl was actually her personal maid Fangcao when she was a young lady in the Hou Mansion. couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, took her hand and said, "Fangcao, it's you?" Let me see, this ...... We haven't seen each other for more than seven years, and you've come out and become so beautiful. Let me think about it, when I left home, it happened that Qiuhong got married, and I asked you to serve, at that time you were three years younger than me, only thirteen years old, and now you should be twenty, right? How is it? Isn't it already married......
When she said this, she didn't say anything more, the grass in front of her was clearly the dress of the girl's family. But I heard her laugh miserably: "The girl left back then." The old man was benevolent, and did not beat the slave or maid to death or drive them out, but only sent the slave and maid to the kitchen, and the slave and maid swore an oath. If there is no news of the girl in this life, the slave and maid will be lonely for a lifetime. The girl is suffering outside, where can the slave and maid marry with peace of mind? I really didn't expect that the slave maid prayed every day, and finally let God open his eyes......"
"Silly girl, you silly girl, those mistakes are mine. You...... Why do you have to bear it for me? ”
Ruan Yunsi never dreamed that she would leave willfully that day, and she would lose her youth. She knew her father's temperament because she knew that as long as she said it in the letter, her father would not blame the young Fangcao too much, but she didn't expect Fangcao to dig a hole for herself, carrying the mistakes and worries and guilt that she shouldn't have carried, and after seven years. The best years have been wasted.
In Ruan Yunsi's heart, Fangcao is already generous if she doesn't resent herself, how can she still worry about herself? Now she knows. She still can't help but use modern ideas to think about these ancient girls, but she doesn't know that they are slaves and maids, and they completely treat their masters as heaven to serve and awe, if the master is good, they are happy, and if the master is not good, they will also be worried and anxious. For example, Ruan Yunsi left home, it was obviously her own mistake, and Fangcao didn't need to have a trace of worry and trepidation, and it was normal to even have resentment. But she said that she had been unable to sleep and eat for seven years. and swore that Miss would not marry her if she did not return it, which was of course foolish and unreasonable, but it could not but be admirable.
Ruan Yunsi now feels more and more deeply how selfish her behavior of leaving home that day was, and she didn't think about it so much at that time, she just thought that she couldn't accept fate. married into a wealthy family and lived a miserable life, but completely ignored the harm suffered by these innocent people because of themselves. It's just that now that she knows, the guilt in her heart is tumbling, but when she thinks about her behavior that day, she has no regrets.
The master and servant hugged their heads and cried a while, and Fangcao said, "The girl came back this time, but she didn't leave?" Can the girl talk to her grandfather and let me come back to serve the girl? If the girl had come back in the past, it would have been very bad. It's just that now the wife is too busy to take care of herself, and the aunts are in a mess, but no one can take care of the embarrassed girl, not to mention that although the Hou Ye is sick, but after all, the person is still there, so the girl can rest assured. ”
Ruan Yunsi's heart moved, and she frowned: "What? Is there a mess in the backyard? What are the aunts messing about? ”
Fangcao pouted and said, "Isn't it because the family's money and land have been spun out by the wife?" They are worried about their future lives. In fact, they still have jewelry and private money, and the minions are suffering, alas! Now that the girl is back, I don't know if it's a curse or a blessing, the Hou Mansion is like this......"
Without waiting to finish speaking, he heard Ruan Yunsi say solemnly: "Don't worry, the Hou Mansion will not fall." Okay, Fangcao, you can come back and still follow me, I haven't been back for seven years, and I don't know much about many things in this house. I originally wanted to wait for my brother to finish his work, and then he would come with me tomorrow morning to clean up and pacify everyone in the house, but now it seems that the backyard is probably already a mess, so you can go with me first. ”
When Fangcao heard that she could return to Ruan Yunsi's side again, she couldn't help but be overjoyed. When she heard Ruan Yunsi say that she was going to the backyard to manage and rectify, she couldn't help but panic immediately, took her hand and whispered: "The girl's mood is clear, it's just ...... It's just the identity of the girl, and those aunts just have no place to be angry now, if they ...... If you know that the girl is the third girl who ran away from marriage and left home before, I am afraid that ...... I'm afraid that I'm going to come at the girl soon, so why bother to provoke me at this time? ”
Just from this sentence, you can know that Fangcao is sincerely thinking about herself, Ruan Yunsi was moved in her heart, patted her hand and smiled: "Don't be afraid, since I dare to go, there must be my reason, although you haven't been with me for a long time, you have been with me for a few months, right?" Don't you know that your girl is not a person who is willing to suffer? ”
Fangcao thought about it, then smiled, nodded and said: "Yes, I also learned a lot after following the girl, and then I came to the kitchen, and I have never suffered a loss, but I can eat some good things from time to time, look, this face is round, sometimes I look in the mirror and think, alas! Don't say anything about vowing not to marry for the sake of the girl, you just can't get married at all. ”
"What nonsense? Your face is goose egg-shaped, and a little rounder looks better and blessed. Ruan Yunsi made Fangcao laugh, although the sky was full of haze in the Hou Mansion, but at this moment, what flowed in the master and servant was a strong warm and warm atmosphere.
Ruan Yunsi went to the old Hou Ye's room first, and saw that her father hadn't woken up yet, and there was only one big girl named Hongxia who was serving, and when she saw her coming, Hongxia stepped forward and said: "Girl, Doctor He has just prescribed a prescription, and he is going to leave now, just saying that there is something in the hospital, and he will come back tomorrow to see, but Hou Ye hasn't woken up yet......
Before she could finish speaking, Ruan Yunsi frowned and said, "Daddy's condition is still unstable at this time, how can he let the doctor leave?" Hongxia, you tell him that you want him to stay here for a few days, and I will order someone to clean up the place for him......"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Hongxia showing an embarrassed look and whispered: "Girl, then Doctor He is nothing more than because of what happened in our house today, so ...... So I'm just worried, after all, he also has the number one in this capital, if he stays here for a few days, but he doesn't have a medical ......"
She refused to say anything more when she said this, but Ruan Yunsi understood what she meant, and couldn't help but be angry and funny: "This Doctor He is really too stingy, don't you know that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse?" Well, he prescribed a prescription and said that he was leaving, but he was still waiting here, I am afraid that he understood that his father's illness was inseparable from the doctor, so he wanted to hear my brother say this to him personally, right? It's okay, you just tell him that even if you don't have to worry about staying, the consultation fee will not be shorter for him, and if Daddy's illness improves, we will pay more, let's go. ”
Hongxia showed a smile on her face, and she agreed to withdraw to find Dr. He, but she heard Ruan Yunsi say again: "There should always be a few people around Daddy to serve, not to mention that it is this time." Why are you the only one now? You go out and tell the other maids and mothers-in-law, let them keep their duty, and there will be no less than any point for them in this house, but if there is an opportunity to be lazy and slippery, I will know it, and I will not spare it. ”
Hongxia was stunned for a moment, then said yes and walked out, here Ruan Yunsi came to her father, looking at the old man who was still frowning in her sleep, she didn't know what it was like.
sighed in his heart for a while, then walked out with Fangcao, out of the courtyard, and walked along the path to a few courtyards not far away, Ruan Yunsi looked at the surrounding scenery and said softly: "I have been walking for almost eight years, and this Hou Mansion has changed a lot, huh?" Where is the hugging house here? ”
Fangcao said: "Two or three years after the girl left, Hou Ye said that this hugging is useless anyway, let people be flat, get a flower bed, the girl looks, many flowers in it are thanks, but those chrysanthemums are in spirit, and they can bloom after the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”
Ruan Yunsi nodded, took a few steps forward and turned a corner, and said with a smile: "This big apricot tree is still there, it is getting thicker and thicker, when I left, it was clearly so thick that one person hugged it, and now, I am afraid that one person can't hold it." ”
Fangcao smiled: "But no, this big apricot tree has always been very lush, and the flowers bloom in the spring, clustered next to each other, not to mention how beautiful it is, it is also competitive, and there are many apricots, and the little masters have not been naughty in the past two years, so the apricots can wait until they are ripe, in early summer this year, we also made apricot wine in the kitchen, which is Uncle Li's exclusive secret recipe, sweet and delicious." ”
Ruan Yun Siqi said: "Apricots can still make wine? I've never heard of this, who is Uncle Li? Is that the old plum who lit the fire in the kitchen before? He's still there? ”
The master and servant talked like this, and walked through a few courtyards, only to feel that it was quiet inside, Ruan Yunsi smiled and said, "You still said that this backyard is not decent, isn't it good?" Hey? Where is the sound? Why does it look like someone is fighting? (To be continued.)
