Chapter 316: Going with the Heart and Against the Heart

Qingluan smiled and turned his head to walk into the earroom where no one was. Sit down on the edge of the bed and wink: "What's the change?" But it's still the same, it's just that after a few days of going there, you feel that things are different. ”

Chunying followed in and glanced at her: "You coax me again." Not to mention anything else, the old lady, how did Jin Yu decide on someone so quickly? And Feng Mingfang is what's going on? I look at her, why is she hiding from me? ”

"She's not hiding from you, but whenever someone looks at her, no matter who it is, she has to hide, she's ashamed to see people." Qingluan glanced outside, approached Chunying and whispered, "Because Aunt Xi has a body, Mrs. wants to raise another girl to serve the master, and she is picking her." Who knows that the master said that now the daily political affairs of the court alone are enough for him to be busy, and he can't even sleep well, where is the kung fu to accept the people in the house? I also saw that Feng Ming had always been his wife's confidant, and said that the eldest entourage beside him was twenty-five or sixteen years old, and he had not yet married a wife. Tell Mrs. to promise Feng Ming to that person! Feng Ming thought that she had made up her aunt, but now that she has failed, where is she embarrassed to meet people? ”

Chunying blinked and said with a smile: "It's just that I feel embarrassed for a while, but in the long run, it's a good thing, the master's long-term follower, nine times out of ten in the future, she will be a big steward, she has become a steward's lady, which is much better than being an aunt." "Where is the future of being a concubine in Dongfu? Now among the second master's concubines, Narcissus has long become invisible, no matter how she jumps, she can't leave the second wife's palm, and the second master doesn't have the slightest love for her; Aunt Chen is sick all day long, and there is no shortage of food and clothing, but dragging that sick body is enough for her; There is only one magpie, because she is a big girl next to the second old lady, the second old man is quite respectful, and the second wife does not treat her badly. But so what? She never dared to say a bad word about the second wife, no matter how face-saving she was, in this house, speaking was not as effective as Aunt Xu!

Qingluan naturally understands this truth, but when it comes to her boss, she can't say anything, she just smiled: "There are some people who can't turn a corner for a while, and it will be fine in a few days." As for the brocade feather. It was her own request, and it was also the grace of the old lady and the wife, and it was the old man's guard! Although he is a rough person, it is rare to be honest. But Jinyu himself is not happy! So what? If she talks about it, she still doesn't have to get married? Now I only say that I have to train the little girl, and I can't let go of the old lady's business, so I don't want to get married too early. In fact, the big guys all know in their hearts, who can she train? Those little girls, all of them regarded her as an enemy, and they were only willing to listen to the words of Qiu Yan, Bailing, Xiaoli and others. After a pause, he smiled and said: "Now they all regard you as an example, when teaching the little girls, tell them that as long as they serve their masters, are loyal, and want to be in front of the master in everything, the old lady, Mrs. and Miss will naturally not be treated badly, haven't you seen that Sister Chunying, who has only been a year, has been released to get married?" Not only did they marry a good family, but the old lady and his wife also rewarded a large amount of dowry! Li'er taught the little girls what you did when you were in the house little by little, and even the old lady praised her for being another you, and I think it won't be long before she will be promoted to the second class. ”

Chunying smiled dumbly. After thinking about it, he said: "Li'er can come out, it is her own hard work, and I am happy for her." It's just that they are exaggerating when they say that. ”

Qingluan smiled and said, "This is the old lady's permission, you should not know." ”

Chun Ying thought about it, but she understood what the second old lady meant, and she was no longer entangled, and quickly opened the topic: "Let's not talk about that, I came today, but I didn't come to the door empty-handed, did you see the silk flowers I brought?" ”

As soon as Qingluan heard this, he pouted: "I see!" You girl, why are you so eccentric? Could it be that only Qiu Yan and a few of them are your sisters? Their flowers are specially wrapped, and they are better than others, why don't I have them? You're not planning to ask me to rob the little girls, are you?! ”

Chunying took out a small cloth bag from her sleeve and handed it over: "Give!" You have no conscience, I don't know the rules of your courtyard? The flowers that were sent in for the girls outside, which time wasn't they picked for you and Feng Ming first? I thought that Heng Zhi had already prepared a gift, these silk flowers or something, you can pick the one you like no matter what, so it didn't take much effort, you blame me. ”

Qingluan opened the cloth bag and saw that it was a pair of earrings, green jade texture, not superior, it is rare that the pendant itself was carved into the shape of Qingluan, which matched her name, and she was overjoyed: "Oh, it's so beautiful!" I'm wrong about you. Good sister, spare me! ”

Chunying smiled: "Wear it and take a look, is it appropriate?" I happened to see it, so I bought it right away. It's not worth much, but it's chic and tight, just for you to wear. When she was in the house, Qingluan took care of her many times, so she had the heart to give a heavier gift, and now she is happy to see that Qingluan likes it.

Qingluan put it on happily, took the mirror and looked at it again, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it: "Thank you so much, it's hard for you how you found it!" How could the person who made the pendant think of making it look like a green luan? ”

"You should have a relationship with this pendant, right? If it's someone else, it's just a pair of pendants. Chunying pulled her to sit down, and chatted with her about what color clothes look good with this pendant, or what flowers to wear when wearing it, Lala chatted for a while, and then pretended to ask casually, "I heard the old lady say just now that the fourth young master is going to get married, and it's a happy event in June, right?" ”

"Isn't it?" Qingluan took off the earrings and solemnly put them into the jewelry box. turned around and said, "Time is a little tight, but because Miss Zhu's brother has made up for the vacancy, he will go to Chengdu at the end of June to serve as the county magistrate, so the wedding date is set before that." Before, our old lady was outside, and we didn't bother to prepare anything, so we had to start everything from scratch. For this, my wife has been busy almost every day these days, but the old lady in Xifu is sick and has handed over all the housework to the third young grandmother, and the third young grandmother always sends someone to invite our wife over. said that there was something I didn't understand to ask for advice, but in fact, I wanted to pull our wife to support her, so that her mother-in-law would not trouble her. Our wife can't even worry about it! ”

Chunying lowered her head and calculated, and said, "If you want to do a happy event, do you want to buy a lot of things?" If you need all kinds of clothes and satins, I can help. Previously, when my father was on an errand in Xifu, he was in charge of a silk shop, and he was the most familiar and experienced. He now occasionally talks for people to make deals. [Marshmallow] what do you lack, why don't you tell me, I'll go back and ask my father." If sometimes, send it directly, and you will save your effort. The price is naturally more affordable than the outside, and it can be kao. ”

Qingluan was surprised and delighted: "Is this true?!" If so, you've done a great favor! It turned out that the person who bought the purchase was injured when the rebels came, and the new person did not use it, and the price quoted was one and a half times more than the previous one, and the color was too old. Our family has been in the south for a long time, and we have seen a lot of materials and colors, and we are upset when we see those old styles, but the time is too rushed, and we send people to the south to buy, which costs too much money and takes a long time. If your family can get the fashionable material from the south, I can make this deal for my wife!" ”

Chunying nodded hurriedly. She already knew a lot of Jiangnan cloth merchants, and her father came home recently, and he also mentioned that he met a Suzhou merchant he knew in the old days, and the supply of goods should not be a problem. She added: "What kind of suit and how much do you want, you can simply tell me at the same time." ”

Qingluan hurriedly ran out and asked the little girl to invite Aunt Xu to come and ask about the fabric. As soon as Aunt Xu heard about this, she was also very interested, and said busily: "The color of the flower is naturally festive, the flowers are rich and rich, the clouds are full of bats, and the plum blossoms are happy." Flying with wings, there are fish in the year of the lotus, as well as dragons and phoenixes, Fang Sheng, chains, and entwined branches...... As long as it is a good meaning, it can be used, it is best not to use the old color, even if it is a common style, it must be different from the past. The color is mainly bright, and there is no limit to anything else, but the bright red ones are the most. Then he said how much was needed for each material.

Chunying hurriedly borrowed a pen and paper to write them down one by one, and checked with Aunt Xu again, confirmed that it was correct, and then said: "According to this list, I also have a number in my heart, many of which I have at home, and those that I don't have, my father can also go and ask the merchants from the south, and within three days, there will be a response." I don't dare to pack the ticket and say that I can wrap all the ingredients, but I am satisfied that it can reduce the burden of my wife, aunt, and sisters. ”

Aunt Xu smiled: "Actually, I also asked my grandson, the materials in their shop have been sent over, and this is the missing share." You can get as much as you can, but things must be good. ”

Chun Ying responded, but thought in her heart, she almost forgot that Mu Chen was the shopkeeper of the silk village under the name of the Hou Mansion, and some of the sources of goods were only afraid that he had already asked, so it seemed that he had to ask the merchants that Hu Fei dealt with in the past.

After making up her mind, Chunying said a few more gossips with her, and then got up to say goodbye. Aunt Xu walked with her all the way, and when she was far away, she lowered her voice and said, "The girl has an uncle who works as an errand in Xifu?" ”

Chunying's heart froze, and she still had a smile on her face: "Auntie is right, I have an uncle, but since our family went to the village the year before last, we have not had much contact." ”

"I see." Aunt Xu looked up to see a small sparrow standing in the treetops in the distance, "Recently, I heard people below say that there is a person who claims to be the girl's uncle and has come to ask for an errand in the house. Originally, I saw that he was a relative of the girl, and I wanted to help, but later I saw that he was a little unfavorable to speak, and I felt a dilemma. He came to ask for the master's long-term follower, and was about to be a well-spoken and intelligent person, he was a little worse, so he pushed it, but he was worried that the girl would blame, so he specially mentioned it to the girl. ”

There is nothing unfavorable about Uncle Jin's speech, so Chunying knew that this was a pretext as soon as she heard it, and wanted to come to a back street to say that it was not long, and the people with the second master had to find out the origin, how could Manager Xu and Aunt Xu not know that Uncle Xu had a gambling addiction? Busy said: "Auntie doesn't have to be polite. My uncle used to have some inconveniences, and if he had forced him to get an errand, he would have caused trouble in the future. I also have to thank my aunt for saving my uncle! ”

Aunt Xu smiled and relaxed: "It's really unfortunate this time, if there is an errand that doesn't matter in the future, it's not too late for me to find the girl's uncle, since he is the girl's relative, he must also be loyal to the ministry?" ”

"Auntie really doesn't have to be like this, what errand my uncle asks, naturally he should be questioned like others, and make sure that he is qualified before he can go on a mission. If it is for my sake, it is not my sin to break the rules of the house? Then I'm really sorry for the kindness of the old lady and his wife to me! ”

Chun Ying looked sincere, extremely serious to dispel Aunt Xu's thoughts, Aunt Xu was just a kind word, seeing that she didn't care, she quickly put the topic aside.

Maybe it was because she was satisfied with Chunying's eye-catching attitude, and when she was about to leave the second door, Aunt Xu mentioned Chunying again: "Mrs. has recently taken a fancy to a cloth shop and is intending to take it down." If your father can do this errand well, maybe he can be appreciated by his wife and hired as the shopkeeper of the new store, which is very different from the previous errand when he was in Xifu, and it is the most decent. The girl must tell her family that this matter must be done. ”

Chunying was stunned, and hurriedly responded, and only after breaking up with Aunt Xu did she ponder it all the way. If his father took over the errand of the shopkeeper, it should be similar to the situation of the stone shopkeeper, not a slave of the East Mansion, but just hired by the East Mansion, almost full authority to take charge of the store, half a year to a year to return the account, in addition to the fixed salary every year, there are dividends at the end of the year, which is a good job. Although she is not sure whether she should let her father return to Dongfu again, as long as she does not lose her personal freedom, there is nothing wrong with treating it as a part-time job, and her father has always been worried that he will be bullied after leaving the house, and he always thinks that the family has little money, so he must be excited about this job, right?

Chunying decided to go home first to discuss this matter with her father, and then make a decision, no matter what, first finish the errand of buying all kinds of materials in the near future, save this piece of silver in her hands, and it is not too late to think about anything else.

Back at the gate, when the potter's coachman saw her, he hurriedly left the person he was chatting with and greeted her. Chunying said to him: "I'm going to see a friend in the back street, talk for a while and then leave." Uncle send me over first. The potter's driver answered, and when Chunying got into the car, he whipped the horse, and waved goodbye to his new friends in the concierge before leaving.

They took a shortcut and turned in the other direction to the back street, first to the end of the street. When she was about to go to Mu Chen's house, Chun Ying caught a glimpse of the alley of the courtyard where Zhou Nian lived, there were several carriages lined up, Sanqing was carrying luggage to the car, thinking of what the second uncle said when he left last time, he guessed that Zhou Nian was moving today, and hurriedly called the potter: "Uncle stop for a while, I saw a friend, go down and say a few words to him." The potter hurriedly stopped the car, and Xian opened the curtain to let her down.

Chunying walked over and smiled at Sanqing: "Brother Sanqing, is Young Master Zhou moving today?" Where are you moving? ”

Sanqing looked up and saw that it was her, stunned, and did not answer for a long time. Zhou Nian walked out of the alley with a handful of books, and when he saw Chunying, he was surprised and delighted: "Chunying?!" You...... You're here to send me?! ”

"I happened to go back to Dongfu to ask for peace, and I came to see my friends, but I didn't expect to meet it." Chun Ying looked at the door of his house, "Everything has almost moved, right?" Young Master Zhou, where is your new home? ”

Zhou Nian handed the book in his hand to Sanqing, bowed his head embarrassedly and said, "It's in Little Tofu Lane, there is an old jujube tree in front of the door, just like the one planted in this courtyard." Jujube ...... When it opens, it has a fresh fragrance and smells very good. As he spoke, he looked at Chunying's reaction.

Chunying didn't wake up at all, but said, "That's not far away." This is also good, in the future, Young Master Zhou will be able to study quietly, and there is no need to worry about someone disturbing him. In the future, high school and revival of the family business are naturally no problem. ”

A flash of disappointment flashed in Zhou Nian's eyes, and he quickly covered it up again: "Thank you for your auspicious words, I'm ...... I'll do my best. Looking back at the old residence where he had lived for a few years, he smiled faintly: "If I can't do it, aren't I too sorry for my parents and the people who have helped me all along?" ”

Chun Ying frowned, always feeling that something was wrong with this: "Even so, you have to take good care of yourself." Physical health is the most important thing, whether you can do it, if you can't do it, don't be too disappointed. Your parents know and want you to live a safe and happy life, right? ”

Zhou Nian looked back at her suddenly, stunned, and suddenly turned his head away from her, not knowing what was wrong. Chunying was wondering, so she heard Sanqing ask herself: "Xiaochun...... Girl, I heard ...... Are you engaged? Be...... Really? Which one is it? ”

Chunying smiled: "That person's surname is Hu, you don't recognize it." Brother Sanqing, you also want to move away with Young Master Zhou, right? I won't be able to meet more often in the future, so take care! ”

Sanqing lowered his head, answered vaguely, looked up at Chunying again, and for some reason was deflated, so he picked up a big box, turned around and walked in the direction of the carriage.

Chunying felt even more weird, so she heard Zhou Nian say softly: "That Hu Gongzi...... He's a good person......" She blushed, lowered her head and smiled, "Young Master Zhou recognizes him?" Actually, he was sometimes very bad, but he was very good to me. Suddenly realized that the time was not early, and hurriedly said: "Young Master Zhou, I have to go, you have to take care of yourself and pay more attention to your body." After that, he turned around and left, and he didn't need to get into the carriage anymore, he said hello directly to the potter, and walked in the direction of Shi'er's house.

Zhou Nian looked at her back, sighed, lowered his head and turned back to the courtyard, but saw his cousin Ye Bincheng Kao on the gate of the courtyard, looking at him with a smile. He walked past the other party with an expressionless face, and heard a whisper coldly: "Looking at my cousin's amorous appearance, it is better to say to the third young master and ask that girl to be a child." ”

Zhou Nian paused, turned around suddenly, and reached out to grab Ye Bincheng's collar.
