Chapter 121: Who Designed Whom
Lanyue Xuan.
Dongyu hurriedly ran back to the main house from outside, turned around and closed the door, and called "Aunt One"
Aunt Liu got down from the big kang by the window, "How is it?" Have you seen the master? ”
Dongyu half-arched and panted slightly, "When the slave maid rushed to the second door, she was preempted by Xinxiang.
It's been two days, and Madame doesn't want the master to come to our courtyard. ”
Aunt Liu's delicate eyebrows twisted slightly, it seemed that there were ghosts in the courtyard, Feng Yerong must have known about it, so he didn't want to go out to spread the news by himself, and it was clear that he wanted Qinglian to lose her words and raise her head in front of the princess.
"The news can't be delivered, what do you think about this?"
"Let me think about it" Aunt Liu paced back and forth, feeling inappropriate in her heart, she was preempted by Feng Yerong for two days, and she was on guard everywhere. There are already many pairs of eyes staring at my yard. It is definitely not possible to use the people who were originally placed elsewhere, but I am afraid that my own people will be targeted when they walk out of this gate.1 Xiao Feng is worried that she will not have the opportunity to clear out all the people she has placed, and this time she found out, and she will be found out. Now the problem is that although Qingdai's injury was an accident, the palace may not think so.
Qi Wangfu is a birthday, Qinglian can't go to the front to socialize.
In Dongyu's eyes, Aunt Liu is a gentle person, rarely see her because of what she is anxious about, she is always very calm when she encounters things, and everything can be solved calmly in the end. At this time, Dongyu saw her turning back and forth, her eyebrows were frowning, and she was worried, and then she wanted to calm down, so she sat on the kang and picked up the scattered embroidery threads in the thread basket to clean up, but later she didn't even look at it, and she was angry, obviously absent-minded.
Dong Yu was anxious and asked tentatively: "Why don't you go out of the house with the parsley from the slave and the maid?" She deals with the guys who buy on weekdays, and it is more convenient than us to send a message outside the house. ”
"When did you meet Parsley?" The kitchen has always been Xiao Feng's territory, and Aunt Liu can't intervene in it, and her natural way kitchen is the place where she deals with outside compradors most frequently.
Dongyu helped Aunt Liu to take the unfinished handkerchief on the table to the table, "The mother of the parsley and the slave maid are fellow villagers, and I only knew about it when I talked about it inadvertently." Later, her mother became ill, and the slave maid helped her twice, but she didn't mention it to you because it was a trivial matter. ”
Aunt Liu slowly wrapped the torn embroidery thread back into the thread ball, gently rested it in the thread basket, and her brows stretched slightly, "Dongyu, come here, I have something to explain to you." Tomorrow I will go to Rongxi Hall to see the three girls, you are so ......, "
On the morning of the fourth day of the new year, Aunt Liu avoided the time when Xiao Feng went to Rongxi Hall, and when she came back to Jiyaju to arrange things, she took the winter rain over. After inviting the old lady to sit for a while, Aunt Liu went to the Qingdai house under the pretext of visiting the patient.
When entering the door, Qing Dai was leaning on the side of the couch, leaning against the gold silk embroidered Fushou pattern stone blue cushion, holding a book in her hand and reading it with relish. The sunlight shines in through the large window, and is sprinkled around her, covered with a light curtain of pale gold, the quiet little face is as white and translucent as thin porcelain, and the slightly drooping eyes are focused on the content of the page, and when she sees the rise, a faint smile will emerge from her chún corner, quiet and soft like a white sè daisy in the wilderness, and her beauty will quietly bloom in the corner of the grass.
Aunt Liu raised her chún corner slightly, "The third girl is so interested, I don't know what book she is reading?" ”
"Oh, my aunt is here, sit down!" Qing Dai put down the book and glanced at the maid waiting in the room, "Why don't you report it?" ”
Aunt Liu sat down on the brocade stool next to Qingbi, "I didn't let them say it, I saw that the girl was engrossed in reading, so it was not easy to disturb." ”
"Let my aunt laugh!" Qing Dai instructed the maid to serve tea to Liu.
"Reading, self-cultivation, is a good thing." Liu glanced at the book that Qingdai put in his hand, and didn't pick it up and read it on his own initiative, "I heard that the third girl reads books and covers a wide range of books, but I didn't expect to read these geographical miscellaneous?" ”
Qing Dai smiled and said: "I have nothing to do, I can't move around, look at the book right to do a lot of travel." ”
"Hehe, this is the first time I've heard of this idea."
"I'm sick and can't do anything! As the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books, and now I can't even travel a mile, so I have to be like this. ”
Qing Dai is giggling, but the two of them are not as restrained as they were just now. Aunt Liu couldn't help but look at Qing Dai a little differently, the three girls are not very old, but they are used to talking when they look at each other, they are humble and polite, no one can find fault, no wonder the old lady loves her so much.
The two chatted casually, and Aunt Liu's maid Dongyu came in with a curtain, blessed the two of them, and handed Aunt Liu a silk baggage.
Aunt Liu smiled and said to Qing Dai: "Come and say hello to the old lady today, and come to see the third girl's injuries by the way." Originally, I only brought you some supplements, but after thinking about it on the way, Rongxi Hall must not lack these here, so I let Dongyu go back and take two more things. I didn't make anything for the girl in the past, but I made a skirt and two embroidered handkerchiefs in my spare time, and I kept it for the girl. ”
Qing Dai glanced at the burden spread out by Liu's, the moon skirt with a light yellow embroidered blue grass color butterfly pattern, and the five sè colored butterflies on the skirt danced around the blue grass, delicate and elegant, which is exactly the style and eyes that Qing Dai likes.
Aunt Liu hasn't met Qingdai a few times since she came out of the pavilion, and she can count everything she says on one hand. Today, I suddenly came to visit the patient, and I also gave her clothes made by herself, whether this dress was originally specially prepared for herself, and now it comes in handy, is there another plan in this? Qingdai was surprised, and couldn't help but secretly speculate about her intentions......
Qing Dai's eyes flashed, and she withdrew her gaze stuck to her skirt, "I'm just a little injured, my aunt doesn't have to bother so much." Although she said so, Qingdai still glanced at the skirt from time to time, and outsiders would think that she liked this thing very much, and she was embarrassed to accept it because of her face.
"It's just a skirt, it's rare that the girl doesn't dislike it, and it's too late for me to be happy." Aunt Liu immediately became enthusiastic: "Isn't it that the girl dislikes my rough nose craft?" ”
"Ah, look at what my aunt said? Earlier, before the second sister left the cabinet, I saw her wearing the clothes embroidered by my aunt, and the fourth sister and I were slandered. But I'm afraid that my aunt will work hard, so I'm embarrassed to speak. After Qingdai finished speaking, she paused, and said apologetically, "Plus, the second sister had some misunderstandings with me before she left the pavilion, and I was afraid that my aunt would have a pimple in her heart, and I didn't dare to mention it again." ”
These words sound a little awkward, but it seems that the Liu family seems to have nothing to do.
Liu's god was suddenly a little embarrassed, Qingdai seemed to react wrongly, and hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Auntie, don't misunderstand, I don't mean that, I like my aunt's embroidery, I... Look, I don't even know how to explain it to you? Qing Dai's nonsense, Liu Shi thinks that she is still a child, and it is not good to worry about these things with her." It was the second girl who was at fault first, and the third girl was lenient and would not hold grudges. ”
"Yes, that's what I meant. This injury made even my brain confused. Auntie, don't blame! ”
"Since the girl also said that she likes it, you can accept this thing." Aunt Liu's voice is very good, soft but without a trace of sweetness, gentle as water, listening to it makes people feel very comforting, and people are embarrassed to refuse.
"Thank you, auntie." Qing Dai called Tao Huā, "Go to the outer room and hand it to the crescent moon to put away." ”
The crescent moon is in charge of Qingdai's clothes on weekdays, so these things naturally have to be handed over to her.
Tao Huā stepped forward to put away the burden and walked outside, the crescent moon happened to be waiting with Zhu Yun outside, "Crescent moon, a skirt and two square handkerchiefs sent by Aunt Liu, the girl asked you to put it away." The brocade box that was put down just now, Zhu Yun took it to the ear room and put it away, remember to classify it. ”
The two of them took their things and went to clean up themselves.
In the room, Aunt Liu saw that Qingdai let people take things away, and the smile on her face deepened, "The family said that Lao Shizi's kind words are very good!" Don't say these things in the future. ”
"Good! This time Aunt Lao is worried! ”
Liu sat for a while, and when Zhuyun and Crescent had returned to the house, he got up and said goodbye, "Don't disturb the three girls to recuperate." If the girl has anything to like, just tell me, and I'll do it for the girl. ”
Qingdai thanked her again and again, and asked Xinghuā to send Liu and the two maids out.
"Something for the two of them to put away? "Qingdai's body collapsed, leaned back on the mat, breathed a sigh of relief, and finally left, this mother and daughter are really the same, and they are tired when they talk!
"Let them take it as you commanded."
"Well, let Xinghuā pay more attention to it." Qing Dai picked up the book, turned two pages, and had no intention of reading it anymore, rubbing the sun xué, "It's really not stopping, it's so tired to recuperate!" I'll sleep a little more to replenish my brain. ”
Tao Huā couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Okay, catch Ming'er and wait for tuǐ, don't blame us for fattening you again." ”
Despised ? The corners of Qing Dai's mouth twitched, and she changed her mind, "Okay, don't sleep!" Tell the two of them to come in, and get all the money for the house ready for me, your girl is going to kill all sides today! Compensation for mentally damaged property! ”
Accustomed to Qing Dai's occasional one or two strange words that he didn't understand, Tao Huā smiled and said, "I'll tell them to pack up and come in quickly."
Qing Dai gathered the maids in the house to open the scene, and played for an afternoon, but did not compensate for the mental loss, but sent out the consistent money. Qing Dai hummed depressedly: "The apprentice of the church starved to death the master... No, I will continue tomorrow, and I must get my money back. ”
"Okay, you're the patient you're the biggest, what do you say!" Xinghuā checked the purse that had sunk a little in his hand, "Anyway, you are rewarding today", there are a lot, let's listen to you. ”
Qing Dai glared at Xinghuā angrily, and then there was a strange sound of "grunt", and everyone laughed.
"You're agreeing?"
Qing Dai looked at the laughing maids angrily, "I'm hungry, hurry up and get food." ”
Since Qian's pregnancy, the old lady sent the grandmother in the small kitchen to Tingtao Courtyard, and the small kitchen like Rongxi Hall did not open the fire, and the dishes were served together in the large kitchen. The old lady usually comes out of the Buddhist hall to serve the food, and the food in the Qingdai room will be delivered earlier than in the main room, but no one comes to deliver the food in the evening.
"It's late for dinner tonight, and I haven't delivered it yet." Ju Yun replied on the side.
The crescent moon looked out the window and looked at the sky, turned back to Qing Dai and said, "Girl, it's not early, I'll go to the kitchen to urge the vegetables?" ”
Qing Dai stretched her waist and glanced at the crescent moon, "It's late anyway, don't let the kitchen people run again, you and Xinghuā go together to bring the food back"!.
