Mama Xue helped Sister Xue Feng take care of her hair, pulled her up and looked her up and down, and couldn't help nodding: "Sure enough, it's the eldest lady's sister, it's like this, no wonder the third master Wang ...... him."

When Mama Xue said this, she shut up.

Sister Xue Feng listened to it in her heart, she only saw the third master Wang today. But as soon as they met, he was a little out of shape, and he cared for her along the way. She originally thought that it would be for the sake of the late Master Xue's face, but it didn't seem to be more than that.

Thinking of the eyes that the third master Wang looked at her just now, Sister Xue Feng's face turned red.

Seeing Mama Xue looking at her with a complicated expression, Sister Xue Feng was slightly stunned, and after thinking about it, she still mustered up the courage to ask: "Mama, that third master Wang, he ......"

She originally wanted to ask why this third master Wang had such a strange attitude, and what it had to do with her sister-in-law. But after all, there was no question. She was a little scared of the Xue Mama in front of her.

Mama Xue found her with the old lady Wang yesterday, but it was not the first time she had seen this mama. She had seen her when she was very young, when she was still in the Xue Mansion.

It's just that at that time, she was just a little girl in the laundry room. Every day with my mother day and night to do the pulp washing work, even in the cold winter weather, there is no moment.

When my mother looked at her hands, which were obviously still very immature, but had been destroyed by frostbite like old bark, she would cry sadly. It's just that the mother can't help it, because the housekeeper of the laundry room is staring at their mother and daughter all the time, if she doesn't work, she won't have anything to eat, and maybe she will be beaten and scolded.

Only in the dead of night. The mother hugged her tightly in her arms, and while helping her rub her body to keep warm, she suppressed her crying and whispered: "Sister Feng, my Sister Feng." It's also a phoenix, but it's a pity that the wrong mother's fetus was cast. It's my mother who mistook you—"

She was too young to understand. But she can feel her mother's sadness. So he cried quietly with his mother.

The first time I saw Mama Xue was on a summer afternoon, when she and her mother had just finished eating a nest sent by the housekeeper's grandmother, and they had just rested for a while. was driven by the steward to the pulp washing room.

It's just that the mother soaked the clothes. Then I heard the voice of a woman cursing outside. Then the steward came in and told them to go out. After thinking about it, the mother still asked her to stay in the pulp washing room first and not go out, and she walked out by herself. The woman outside was still cursing, and she was a little scared, so she secretly leaned on the door and peeked out.

.

The mother fell to the ground unsteadily, blood gushing out of her nose and the corners of her mouth. She screamed in fright, pushed open the door and ran out, hugging her mother and crying heartbreakingly.

The fierce woman saw her. Suddenly rushed over, raised his hand and was about to slap her face, she was stunned. The mother dragged her behind her. "Girl," he said, "I accidentally washed your clothes." It has nothing to do with Second Miss, you don't hit her. ”

The woman suddenly laughed: "Second Miss? Where did the second lady come from? What kind of dreams are you talking about! There are only minions here. ”

The rest of the people in the courtyard laughed too, and even though she was very young at the time, she could feel that the eyes of their people were uncomfortable looking at her.

The mother opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything after all.

The woman smirked and stepped forward to grab her.

The mother didn't stop her, so she could only kneel on the ground and cry and beg.

The woman was unmoved, and raised her hand to strike. She was so frightened that she closed her eyes, thinking that they were going to turn black with pain again. I didn't want to, but I heard a voice from the gate of the courtyard: "Stop." ”

The voice was very nice and soft, but it made the woman's hand go down instantly.

"Miss." All the people in the courtyard crouched down and walked towards the person who had just entered the courtyard.

She also looked towards the gate of the courtyard and saw a girl of twelve or thirteen years old walking in. At that time, she had no way to distinguish the beauty and ugliness of a person, but when she saw the girl, she thought that this person should not be standing in a place like the pulp washing room, because she didn't belong to this place when she looked at it.

The mother tugged at the corner of her dress behind her, and when she turned around, she heard her mother whispering anxiously to her, "Hurry up and salute the eldest lady." ”

She bowed obediently to the girl.

The girl also kept staring at her, but her gaze was not as malicious as the others scared, just a little curious and surprised.

"Mama, this little girl looks very similar to me when I was a child. It's just that I don't have such a mole between my eyebrows. The girl smiled and said to a grandmother behind her.

"Miss is a daughter, she is just a minion, how can she be compared? Don't say what this kid said in the future, it's a joke. The mother said with a straight face, but her gaze at the girl was soft, just like when her mother looked at her.

The girl was not afraid of her, but smiled and nodded. Then he turned around and asked the woman who was about to beat her just now: "Ping'er, you don't stay in the yard well, what are you angry at a little girl when you come here?" ”

The woman's face was no longer that fierce expression, but she smiled and said, "Miss, the slave maid thought that the new shirt of the lady the day before yesterday had been washed by them, and she was distressed, so she came to these minions to comment." The slave is an urgent child, don't blame it. ”

When the eldest lady heard this, she frowned and said seriously: "They definitely didn't want to deliberately wash your shirt, and my father said that people like us should first be tolerant when treating their subordinates." How can you punish someone for a dead thing, even such a small girl? Well, I'll ask my mother to give you another piece of clothing, and that's all for this time." ”

The woman's face was overjoyed, and she hurriedly stepped forward to thank her.

The eldest lady nodded, looked at the mother who was kneeling on the ground with her head bowed and silent, and sighed: "Mama." Give her a bottle of ointment, her face is so swollen, it's very uncomfortable this summer. ”

The mama with a serious face hurriedly bowed down and said, "It's hot here, so Miss should go back to the yard first." The slave will take care of the rest. ”

The eldest lady nodded, but she looked at her again, and then led the maids out of the pulp washing room.

When the grandmother saw that the eldest lady was far away, she turned around and faced the people in the courtyard.

"Who's in charge here?"

"Yes, it's a slave." The steward of the pulp washing room, who always scared her and her mother, stood up tremblingly.

"Deduct a month's bill, and then go to the torture room to get ten boards."

"Mama Xue...... This, it's not about slaves. It was these two minions who washed the clothes. The steward's face turned white.

Mama Xue had a cold face: "It seems that you still don't know why I want to punish you." Plus ten more boards"

The steward of the slurry washing room trembled, and he didn't dare to say half a word anymore.

Mama Xue set her eyes on the woman who beat people again.

The woman rolled her eyes, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Mama Xue, the young lady said that she wanted to reward the slave maid with clothes, and the slave and maid went back to the courtyard first." ”

Mama Xue nodded lightly: "Miss said that it will naturally not be less to reward you, but what should be punished is still punished." Go to the house to get ten boards, and deduct one month per month. ”

"Mama, why is that? The slave and maid did nothing wrong. The woman turned her head to look at the mother and daughter who were hugging each other, leaned in front of Mama Xue and whispered, "Mama, the slave and maid may not like what the slave and maid do." ”

Mama Xue didn't raise her eyelids: "If you think about your intentions without authorization, the crime will be added to the first." Twenty boards, two months per month. ”

Seeing that although the woman didn't dare to speak, her eyes were still unconvinced, Mama Xue said coldly: "This is the Xue Mansion, the master is the head of the Hanlin Academy, the Xue family has always been a model for scholars in the world, and the Xue Mansion is not a vegetable garden in the market!" If you want to be flattering, take some brains first! Don't end up making people laugh! ”

After speaking, Mama Xue glanced at her and her mother again: "You will also be fined a month." ”

Then he turned around and walked out of the pulp washing room.

This is the first time she has seen Mama Xue, and it is also the first time she has seen the eldest lady of the Xue family, her ...... Sister.

Sister Xue Feng was recalling, but Mama Xue was talking over there.

"Second Miss, you just need to be yourself. Leave the affairs outside to the slave and maid. You are now the only bloodline left by the Xue family in this world, and the old slave will definitely assist you well, and will not let you suffer. Master Wang San...... It's a good candidate. ”

Saying this, a little tear suddenly flashed in Mama Xue's eyes, she quietly turned over and blinked back the tears without a trace.

What came to her mind was the figure of the pair of beautiful people more than ten years ago, when the lord wanted to marry the eldest lady to the third lord Wang, and the wife of the Wang family also agreed, the two families had already spoken out, and the marriage had been put on the agenda, but in the end, there was that kind of change.

Therefore, this time, if possible, she will help the lord and the eldest lady fulfill their wishes back then. After all, Master Wang San is the son-in-law of the Xue family who is satisfied with both the old lady and the eldest lady.

The original wife also happened to pass away.

Mama Xue glanced at Sister Xue Feng, these two sisters are so similar, it seems that it is also providential.

Sister Xue Feng felt that Mama Xue was a little strange, but she still nodded obediently. Although she is nominally the second miss of the Xue family, she has learned how to serve people over the years, and she doesn't know anything about how to be a qualified official lady. At this time, fortunately, she still has Mama Xue by her side. Although she was still a little scared of Mama Xue, she didn't know who else she could rely on after Mama Xue. (To be continued)
