When a ray of morning light entered the room, Autumn Leaves was still asleep, and one arm had reached out of the tent, and a large mosquito was eating on it.

This small room only has her bed, through the curtain with a few holes, you can see that the outer room is not much bigger than here, there is a table and a bed, and there are pots and pans scattered underground, making the room even more cramped and cramped.

At this time, a man was squatting at the door to light a stove, blowing the fire, putting a small clay pot, and a pot of hot rice porridge was boiling. After doing all this, he crept into the room, listened attentively to the silence inside, then stood behind the door on tiptoe, looked through the two crockpots, and said in a barely audible voice: "Why are there more .....?" ...."As he spoke, he turned his head and looked inside again, his face was a little ashamed and unbearable, and the big man's eyes suddenly turned red.

When Qiu Yehong came out of it with a yawn, she saw that this man was in a daze for half a day as usual, and she didn't bother to wash herself, and when she came back to see that the man had already cooked food for her, she remembered something, and hurriedly took out two cakes from the basket in the house, and handed them to the man with a smile, her current father, Fu Wencheng.

"You can taste what you got yesterday." Autumn Leaf Hong said, taking one and eating it herself.

It is said that the largest restaurant in Shaoxing Mansion can not be compared, but because the reputation is too bright, Qiu Yehong did not dare to move the idea of secretly going out to buy, and he broke a financial route.

"What did you do over there again?" Fu Wencheng pinched the plum blossom cake, and didn't mean to eat it, watching Qiu Yehong finish eating it in a few bites, and licked his fingers, almost falling into tears, his eyes turned to the plum blossom cake that was almost out of shape, this was not a rare thing originally.......

Autumn leaves and red stuffy finished eating the porridge, and he was used to Fu Wencheng's inexplicable daze.

The sunlight shines indoors, so that this man's face is extraordinarily clear, his age is about thirty years old, his face is pale, because he is skinny, he looks very tall, just like a bamboo pole, his appearance is average, he is not good-looking, but he can't scare people when he goes out, his fingers are rough and the bones are large, obviously he is not a reader who is used to holding pen, ink, paper and inkstone, how can he be born sad and sad?

After all, he came halfway, and he didn't know anything about Fu Wencheng's past, but he knew that after he woke up from his big dream, it was this man who was by his side and served carefully, and his love for his daughter was heartbreaking.

Moreover, through the cold words of the neighbor's aunt, I know that they are down-and-out people who have defected to rich relatives and friends, and their wives have lost their families and their daughters are sick.

"It's not a big deal, it's just a fight for a few rough girls, and I'm bored at home, where people talk a lot and it's lively." Autumn leaves are reluctant to elaborate.

Under the fence of last resort, Fu Wencheng was always reluctant and opposed to her going over there.

There are many rich families in Shaoxing, countless side branches, and countless families who come to beg for a living, and most of the courtyard where Fu Wencheng's father and daughter live are such clansmen.

But Fu Wencheng is not a side branch, but the family of the Eight Classics, upward, his grandfather and the grandfather of the rich family are brothers, but it is a pity that his grandfather's heirs are thin, and he died early, leaving only one son, that is, Fu Wencheng's father, it just so happens that this young master is also a thin life, coupled with the pampering of brocade clothes and jade food, he eats, drinks, prostitutes, and gambles at a young age, and he hollows out his body, and Fu Wencheng just landed, and he died with a whimper.

Fu Wencheng's mother is also a strange woman, and the rich family made a fuss, and took Fu Wencheng to remarry, it stands to reason that widows remarry is not uncommon, what makes the rich family angry is that they actually took away the blood of the rich family, although Fu Wencheng later recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors, but he did not live here, except for entering the rich family when he recognized the sect, this is the second time to enter the door of the rich family.

The property that once belonged to their family has long been divided, where is there a place for him, not to mention that he is a child who grew up in a foreign land and recognized the sect halfway, even if he is qualified to shout to the current rich master uncle, he is a rich young master in blood, but in terms of status, he can't really sit with the current rich young master Fu Wenli, so they are also like other people who ask for relatives to live in this big courtyard.

Although people in the same situation do not mean that they have to sympathize with each other, for example, the fat aunt who just made a fuss, because Fu Wencheng's father and daughter occupied the house she was originally going to use as her son's wedding room, and Fu Wencheng's father and daughter did not share the sky, and they wanted to drive them out for purity.

I can't scold Qiu Yehong, I can't beat Fu Wencheng, so I have to vent my anger on the cutting board outside every day.

"You don't have to go anywhere to whisper to someone, Dad, I will feed you." Fu Wencheng instructed.

Autumn leaves were casually gracious and didn't take it to heart.

When she woke up, the family didn't have half a penny, Fu Wencheng knew how to work in the mud and tiles, worked for half a year, saved two taels of silver, and ate, drank, and wore flowers.

Fu Wencheng, who was sent out of work, Qiu Yehong took out the two taels of silver and ten big coins he had saved from the crockpot behind the door, wrapped them in oiled paper from the small kitchen of the girls in the rich family's house, stuffed them into a night pot and tucked them under the bed, and walked out of the house with his clothes intact.

How big is the rich family's compound, Qiu Yehong has not calculated, and she has not walked through this Fuxiang Courtyard for the three girls living in the rich family's house.

The three girls in the rich family's room each live in a small building, during which there is a small kitchen, a garden, and three halls for the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Autumn leaves red through the road, from the side of the stable, first in the small garden around, and a few of the garden handymen and maids to laugh for a while, did not find a job to do, then through the garden, far away to see the highest place of the cloud pavilion sitting a few girls wearing red and green, and a dozen or so little maids holding food boxes and tea sets show stool cushions to and fro.

"Hey." A person under the big osmanthus tree by the lotus pond suddenly beckoned to her.

Qiu Yehong had already seen a seventeen or eighteen-year-old maid in a pastel gown, who was eating melon seeds over there to watch the little maids cut lotus flowers, and recognized it as the big girl in the second girl's house, Qingdai.

Qiu Yehong immediately went to the side along the corridor, but he still saw her, these big girls, Qiu Yehong would never provoke, so he didn't hear it at the moment, turned his head and walked along the way back to the small kitchen.

"Hui Niang, Sister Qingdai is calling you! What are you pretending to be deaf! It was Xiao Ju who came over, and immediately hurried to please, hurriedly put down the bucket in his hand, grabbed her and said, and dragged her over.

"You're just in time, would you like to do me a favor?" Qing Dai patted the melon seeds in her hand and said with a smile.

His eyes stayed on Xiao Ju for a moment, and then he turned to Qiu Yehong, and saw that she was about thirteen or fourteen years old, combed her buns, and wrapped two red head ropes.

"If my sister has something to say, just give me orders." Xiao Judui said with a smile.

"There are guests at home, busy with them, the lotus flowers are blooming well today, our girl is worried about sending them to the eldest lady, I don't dare to go away, you two will run for you for me, hand over the flowers to Sister Qingluan, and confess for me." Qingdai said with a smile, while picking out four arm-length half-open lotus flowers from the flowers cut by the little maids.

This is a big beauty difference, not to mention that if it is taken by the mother in charge, she will be promoted to be a decent maid, so she will say that she will be filial to the girl, and the reward will be indispensable.

Xiao Ju was so happy that she was itching, and hurriedly reached out to take it, and said again and again: "The second girl is so filial, and she is busy sending fresh flowers to her wife." ”

Qing Dai, such a maid, saw a lot, pursed her lips and smiled without saying a word, but when she saw that Qiu Yehong on the side had no expression, she secretly thought that this little girl was so calm.

"I also asked my sister to tell Sister-in-law Song in the kitchen, and the province said that we were greedy for fun, and we were scolded in vain." Autumn leaves said hurriedly.

The rich family still takes care of the clansmen, but whoever comes to the New Year has a column every year, and there are many children who ask someone to find an errand, after all, they are from their own family, and it is not good to be a slave, so there are not many such opportunities.

Autumn Yehong is very lucky, since she aimed at this opportunity to do odd jobs, the first thing she voted for was the small kitchen of the girls next to the courtyard.

Regardless of small profits, taciturn, honest and willing to do it, plus seeing that she is obviously a serious girl, she is not as good as a rough girl, Sister-in-law Song, who is in charge of the small kitchen, is very sympathetic to her, and said to the steward, allowing her to come here to find some odd jobs to do.

Qing Dai smiled even more when she heard this, nodded and said, "Naturally." As he spoke, he told a little girl to go quickly, and Qiu Yehong followed Xiaoju to the wife's room.

According to Yun'er, because the girls are not the directors of the family, the big girls who follow have no spare money in their hands, but the big girls who follow the wives are different, and they are all rewards of more than a dozen big money, and this trip is to show filial piety for the second girl, and it is estimated that the reward will be more.

Thinking like this, Qiu Yehong couldn't help but show a smile, although Xiaoju was one year older than her, she was a head shorter than her, her arms were short, and she was afraid of breaking when she was holding the lotus, so she was a little hurried along the way.

"Laugh at what laugh." Xiao Ju turned her head and saw a smile on the corner of Qiu Yehong's mouth, only when she laughed at herself, she rolled her eyes, and pushed a lotus flower in her hand to Qiu Yehong, "You take it, I just carried the bucket, my arm is sore, and you are not idle." ”
