Chapter 12 Borrowing the name for the first use
Evening came.
Zhang Qi and Ah Lu were busy for a day, and finally tidied up the house. The two of them were already very tired at this time, so they shrank on the collapse and chatted for a while.
As they spoke, they both dozed off. Zhang Qi took a nap and opened his eyes, but he couldn't see Ah Lu.
She hurriedly walked out of the room, and was about to look for it, when she saw Ah Lu carrying half a bucket of steaming water, coming from the other side of the walk.
Zhang Qi looked up and saw that behind Ah Lu, a few little maids were gathering together, pointing at Ah Lu.
Zhang Qi walked a few steps.
To Ah Lu, who was flattened, sullen, and didn't know what he was thinking, Zhang Qi hurriedly asked, "What happened?" ”
Hearing Zhang Qi's voice, Ah Lu raised her reddish eyes, she flattened her mouth, and said sullenly: "I went to the big kitchen to fetch water just now, but they refused to give it to them, and they told me a meal." ”
She gritted her teeth and said hatefully: "Then Xiao Shi Mo Lang just glanced at Ah Qi a few times, why should they be upset?" ”
Zhang Qi shook his head, stretched out his hand, lifted the other side of the bucket, and said, "It's not just for Xiao Lang. In Ah Lu's puzzled gaze, Zhang Qi said: "It's also for my own assertions." "Confessing to his father on his own initiative, such an act must be unaccustomed to some people. During the day, when she faced that Zhang Jin, she felt her hostility towards her.
She looked at Ah Lu, "What about your water?" ”
Hearing this, Ah Lu grinned and said, "I got it from my original kitchen." In a blink of an eye, she was unhappy again, "It was very full, but the road was too far, and it was all spilled." ”
How far is it from the original residence to here? It must be hard to carry such a heavy bucket of water, right?
Zhang Qi said gratefully: "You, don't discuss it with me." Smiling, she said happily: "There is still a lot of water, let's not wash it but wipe it, the two of us are just enough." ”
Ah Lu didn't shirk, reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and laughed heartlessly, "Okay, okay, Ah Qi, then let's hurry up." I'm sweating a lot. ”
After the two of them hastily took a bath, when Ah Lu carried the clothes of the two to the well to wash, Zhang Qi walked around the courtyard and thought slowly.
She knows that today's bath water is just the beginning, and tomorrow, whether it is food or water, there will be people who will come out to make it difficult.
This is another disadvantage.
If she endures it, perhaps this embarrassment will turn from temptation to routine. But she also had to keep in mind that she couldn't stir up more hostility.
In Zhang Qi's searching, a day passed in a blink of an eye.
The next day, Zhang Qi and the two got up early in the morning. As soon as the sun rises in the east, the chirping of birds rushes to follow. Looking at the patches of fresh green dotted on the branches, Zhang Qi smiled.
Not far away, a few handmaidens can be seen from time to time. They were looking at Ah Lu, who was clearing the weeds in the lawn, and from time to time they exchanged their heads and ears, and then covered their mouths and snickered. Occasionally, someone looked at her, and when they met her gaze, one or two flashed mocking and pitying glances.
So early in the morning, there are so many idlers around. Looks like those people are paying attention to her.
Zhang Qihuan smiled and walked out of the door.
She came to Ah Lu's side in broken steps, and Ah Lu, who was sweating profusely, felt her arrival, and couldn't help but raise her head and grin, her face stained with mud was full of heartless happiness.
Zhang Qi smiled back at her.
After talking nonsense with Ah Lu, Zhang Qi suddenly said: "Ah Lu, you said that Xiao Mo's poetry is really well done?" ”
Although he was surprised that Zhang Qi suddenly mentioned Xiao Mo, Ah Lu was still sincerely happy. She nodded again and again, "Yes, yes," Jiangdong Xiao Lang, the poetry is famous. "Ah Qi, listen, everyone is called like this, is his poetry still poorly written?"
Although Zhang Qi's voice was gentle and soft, Ah Lu was a loud voice. Her voice was clear and clear. Unconsciously, the maidservants who were watching a good show and paying attention to their masters and servants all pointed their ears out.
Really!
Zhang Qi tilted her head and smiled happily, she said innocently: "Really? That's great. Ah Lu, maybe we can all be written in Fu by her. ”
"We'll be in her Fuli?" Ah Lu was surprised and delighted, and couldn't help but repeat in a shrill voice.
"yes, yes. I heard him say to others yesterday that he wanted to write a "beauty endowment", and what did he say that the real beauty is self-effacing and blue-hearted, clear as jade, pure and moving. I also heard him say that there are many beauties in our Zhangfu, from the sisters-in-law to the sisters-in-law from the concubines, and down to people like me, all of them are worth writing about. ”
"Really, really?" Ah Lu screamed happily, "Xiao Lang not only wrote the sisters-in-law into the beauty fu, but even Ah Qi, he also wanted to write?" No wonder he kept staring at you yesterday, it turned out that he was thinking about writing a beauty. In a blink of an eye, she shouted again: "Ah Qi, what is the wisdom of the blue heart, clear as jade?" Hee-hee, pure kindness and touching people, I know. ”
Sure enough, it was Ah Lu, as she expected, and repeated her words in a stunned manner. The joy in the tone, the expression with flying eyebrows, even she, the client, couldn't help but be infected.
Seeing what he was going to say, he was perfectly retold by Ah Lu. Zhang Qi smiled so much that her eyes were bent into a line, she covered her mouth with her hand, and said happily: "Yes, he said that he wanted to write about his sister-in-law who is beautiful inside and out." As if he didn't know that someone not far away had come close to listen, Zhang Qi tilted his head and sighed, "He also asked me if I was doing well, and if there were any sisters in Zhang's mansion who liked to bully me." Xiao Lang is really a caring person. ”
She looked at the horizon yearningly, with a leisurely look on her face, "Jiangdong Xiaolang, poetry is famous." Does that mean that after he wrote that beauty fu, our sisters-in-law will also become famous? ”
Ah Lu nodded again and again, and after being excited for a while, she said depressedly: "It's a pity that he can't write me." At this, she frustrated and reached out to touch her face, and as a result, a large mud stain was imprinted on her face, and she turned herself into a little flower cat.
Zhang Qi was angry and funny, after completing the task, she immediately stretched out her hand to pull Ah Lu, and said angrily: "Look at you!" Don't go in and wash it yet! ”
As the master and servant entered the room, the two or three idlers also dispersed.
Taking the towel handed by Ah Lu, Zhang Qi turned his head to glance at their backs, the corners of his mouth raised, and said: These people will not be Mrs. Xiao's people, she will not do such boring and unnecessary actions. The people who have paid attention to me and can influence the big kitchen can only be my sisters, such as Zhang Jin. I think they will be touched when they hear what I said, right? At least for a while, if you want to deal with me, you will stop for a while, right? After all, no one wants Xiao Lang to feel vicious, right? What's more, Xiao Lang, who is famous, is very likely to write what she did in Fu and spread it all over the world. The sister-in-law of the Dashi clan, why would she risk her reputation to be ruined to deal with her, a person who is not a threat?
