Chapter 164: The West Wind Overpowers the East Wind
Chun Ying was disgusted when she saw Manru's pitiful face. I couldn't help but think of all the things that she had done in the past when she turned her head after pretending to be pitiful, and sneered: "Sister Manru should choose a good partner if she wants to cry, what are you crying to my little girl?" Could it be that because you shed a few tears, I will take out the silver and let you do it?! After that, he jumped up on the ground, patted the dust on his skirt, and glanced at her condescendingly: "Sister, you can see clearly, the third young master is not here!" ”
Manru bit her lip, and tears fell like pearls: "Why...... You can't tolerate me...... Why are you bullying me...... What am I doing wrong......"
Chunying couldn't help but sneer, and wanted to stab her a few words, but Nanqi came over and gently pulled her: "Ignore her, this is not our yard, and she can go." ”
Chunying thought about it, so she turned around and left with Nanqi, leaving Manru stunned in place, wanting to cry something, but there was no object, and the other maids all secretly glanced at her, so they went their own ways, she was suddenly depressed in her heart, only to feel that there was a ball of cotton blocked in her heart, and she was uncomfortable.
Chunying watched from afar. Pouted, he said to Nanqi: "This person is also an eyesore in the courtyard, why don't you talk to the sisters around the old lady and ask them to kick her out?" This is not the place for her to cry. ”
Nanqi pursed his lips and smiled slightly: "What are you afraid of?" Heng and vertical have nothing to do with us, she is not like it, someone has picked her up, why do you bother to come out in person? Besides, you haven't heard rumors in the house these days? ”
Rumor? Chunying blinked, saw her looking at Manru, and somewhat understood: "Do you mean the rumors that she is secretly fighting with Rouge?" Honestly, I didn't expect them to last this long, it's been months? Why doesn't the third young master care? He used to dislike the people in his courtyard to make trouble. ”
Nanqi just chuckled and didn't speak. Chunying felt that something was wrong, how low-key was Rouge before? Shrunk in the room all day long, rarely even go out of the door, and don't interact with other maids, let alone quarrel, and even more so to avoid the third young master, he simply regarded an underdeveloped little Zhengtai as a super invincible pervert! And now, she will actually have trouble with Man Ru all over the house, and it is rumored that she is still the third young master's heart?!
Chun Ying really didn't believe that the Third Young Master would let the rumors develop to this point and do nothing for such a long time. Although I have heard that he is now valued by the Hou Ye and personally takes him by his side to teach, there will always be time to take care of his yard, not to mention that there is Lu'er as a helper.
Chunying was a little curious in her heart, and hesitated to ask Shi'er. Shi'er often goes back to Huanhuaxuan to play with Xia He, so he must know a little bit of the inside story?
But it soon occurred to her that these things had nothing to do with her, so what was so strange about her? So he put this question aside, and planned to go back to the room to do needlework, and wait a while to see how Qiu Yu was doing.
Just as she was about to leave, she felt someone pull her sleeve, Chunying looked up, but heard Nan Qi raise her chin slightly, indicating the direction of the courtyard gate: "Look, someone came to ask, look at Manru like that, I'm afraid I'm prepared, I really don't know what kind of demon moth she's going to come out of." ”
Chun Ying followed her line of sight and saw Wenyu standing in front of Man Ru, bowed her head and asked a few words, Man Ru cried while talking about how she saw the girl in the same courtyard Rouge seducing the third young master not doing her job, and she persuaded a few words with good intentions, but she was insulted by the other party, who not only instigated the third young master to be angry with herself, but also smashed things on herself. even said that he wanted to kick himself out of the house, but he couldn't stand it, so he could only ask his wife, and when he heard that his wife was here with the old lady, he rushed over.
The corners of Chunying's mouth twitched when she heard this, and the girls who had gathered in Qiuyu's room were attracted by Manru's crying, and walked out one after another, but after listening, they just glanced at each other, then lowered their heads and dispersed. Wenyu went into the upper room and walked around, walked back again, and said lightly: "Clean up, the old lady and the wife want to see you." Manru showed a hint of joy in her eyes, and hurriedly combed her scattered hair with her hands, tied it up haphazardly, and respectfully followed Wenyu to the upper room.
Chunying frowned and said, "She's going to hurt people again, right?" Is it rouge this time? Nanqi chuckled: "No one is a fuel-efficient lamp, you can be happy every time you think of her?" Chunying flattened her mouth: "Anyway, she has always been very comfortable before, and the unlucky ones are others, no way, she will be a sycophant, and she is very stable." "According to her, it is really blind that Mrs. will reuse Manru as a cronie! What is it called? Even the wise can make mistakes?
Not wanting to watch Manru jumping anymore, Chun Ying simply turned around and went back to Qiu Yu's room, and saw that everyone was almost scattered, leaving only Pearl, Amber and Agate around Qiu Yu to read the letter, the former read the words word by word, and the other two chattered about the advantages and disadvantages of the two candidates, Qiu Yu stared in other directions. He didn't look at the letter at all, but his cheeks were crimson.
When Amber saw Chunying enter the door, she looked up and asked with a smile, "Chun'er, which one do you say is good to be your brother-in-law?" Qiu Yu took a sip of her and fell over a pillow: "Little hoof with no face and no skin, since you are so enthusiastic, it is better to marry yourself!" Amber grinned and said, "Yo, you haven't passed the door yet, why don't you drink vinegar first?" Qiu Yu was ashamed and angry, pushed her off the kang, climbed to the corner of the kang, opened her box, and took out a thin pen to draw patterns.
Amber was still laughing there, and Onyx saw that Qiu Yu's hands were trembling, so he pushed her: "You know that she is thin-skinned, what are you laughing at her?" Can you help you get an idea? ”
Amber raised her eyebrows: "What's there to hesitate about?" Of course, it is good to choose the Zhao family, this Zhao Zeng Xiucai is not only a talent, but also a relative, and it is also very convenient for Qiuyu to go back to the house to ask for peace in the future. What's more, every time Qida* Grandma comes to say goodbye, she is respectful to us, and there is the support of the old lady. Her mother's family must not dare to bully Qiu Yu. ”
Pearl shook her head and said: "I don't think so, Zhao Zeng is good, but if he really becomes an official in the future, where can he afford us to be girls?" What if in the future, after he wins the move, there is a Xiangye Shangshu who wants to recruit him as a son-in-law and call him Qiuyu? I'm afraid that the old lady won't be able to say anything at that time. Isn't there often such a story in the play? ”
Amber hesitated: "But...... The one surnamed Lu is a white ding, and he is a cripple......"
Chun Ying glanced at Qiu Yu's side, and saw that she was holding a pen and looking at the white paper in a daze, the messy lines under the pen couldn't tell what it was, her ears trembled slightly, and she seemed to be listening attentively to the discussion here. Chun Ying pursed her lips secretly and said, "It's useless for sisters to think about it here for a long time. I'll have to inquire clearly. She took the letter from Pearl's hand and said to Qiu Yu: "Sister, let's take a letter home, shall we?" Let the father inquire about the character and temperament of these two people...... There is also the temperament of their two families, the environment of the house they live in, and how the family is living...... Let's talk about it clearly. This is a major event of a lifetime, and we haven't seen anyone now, what's the use of just looking at a few words from the matchmaker?! ”
Qiu Yu put down the pen in a panic, took the letter, and twisted the edge of the paper in a daze, Chun Ying simply pulled out a piece of paper, took the pen to draw the pattern, and wrote. Pearl leaned closer to see her finish, and said with a smile: "In the end, it is the person who follows Miss Biao, this handwriting is much better than mine, I heard that a few of them can also make poems." ”
Chunying picked up the paper and blew it, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen them make poems, but I have seen them plan to reconcile accounts." The Huo family is a maid and servant who is waiting in front of her, I heard that all of them are literate, and the family has a child, and they will be enlightened when they grow up to a certain age, Aunt Qing said that it is the rule handed down by the ancestors of the Huo family. ”
Pearl was amazed, and Onyx said with some envy: "It's amazing, it's already rare to be able to read and write like Sister Pearl, and his family actually lets every girl know how to read!" ”
Chunying smiled, read the words in the letter to Qiu Yu, and asked, "What else do you want to write?" Qiu Yu lowered her head and shook her head, Chun Ying folded the letter, planning to find an opportunity to ask someone to bring it home, Amber snatched the letter: "Leave it to me, my mother is on an errand at the second gate!" It's the day of the day! She turned around and ran out, but as soon as she reached the porch, she stopped, turned back and beckoned to the house, Pearl and Onyx walked out, and Chunying followed curiously.
Amber pointed to the courtyard, and Chunying looked over and saw that Manru had come out of the house. The tears on his face were long gone, he bowed down and stood with his eyebrows bowed, and after a while, the curtain in the upper room was lifted, and Mrs. An's walked out of it with a straight face, came to her, glanced at her, and snorted coldly: "You are not small, relying on me to hurt you, you dare to disturb the old lady?!" ”
Manru fell to his knees with a plop: "The slave doesn't dare, the slave is really desperate!" In the past, because I thought about the reputation of the third young master, I didn't dare to speak out, and I swallowed all the grievances, but Rouge is too much today...... If you continue to indulge, what will the Third Young Master become?! The slave and maid knew that they should not hide it from their wife in the past, and no matter how the wife punished the slave and maid, the slave and maid would not complain, and only asked the wife to persuade the third young master well and put her mind on serious things. She burst into tears, if someone who didn't know saw it, she would definitely cry when she heard it, but the big girls around her refused to cooperate, just looked at it coldly, only those little girls or mothers-in-law who didn't know anything were there to worry for her.
An Shi slowed down his tone, but he was still a little stern: "When you encounter this kind of thing in the future, no matter what Brother Yu says, you should come back to me first!" Crying and making trouble, making people see jokes, wouldn't it bring tired of Brother You'er's reputation?! I handed over my son to you when I saw that you were doing things steadily, you can't persuade him, it's just that you're useless, and you still have the face to make trouble in front of the old lady?! ”
Manru hung her head even lower, almost lying on the ground. An's still couldn't dissipate his anger, and when he caught a glimpse of Rouge following the little girl who was passing the word into the courtyard gate, his face sank.
Rouge was wearing an oily green placket with a small clip, a white silk embroidered skirt, a begonia red sweat towel tied around her waist, her head was bare, only a pair of hostas were inserted, and a pair of jade pendants on her ears trembled, clean and delicate, lined with more and more snow-white and transparent complexion, even An's had to admit that her appearance was far better than Manru, not to mention that her son has always loved to look at beauties, even if he changed to someone else, he would treat Rouge closer.
But admitting and admitting it, An was still not happy that his son was taught badly by the "fox spirit", so he scolded with a straight face: "When?!" The old lady summoned you, how dare you snub?! The house is guarding filial piety, what are you doing wearing red and green?! ”
Rouge was about to say hello to An's family, but he was suddenly scolded, and when he caught a glimpse of the look in Manru's eyes next to him, he barely held back his anger, bowed his head and said: "Mrs. has taught me a lesson, Rouge will not dare in the future." ”
An's punch hit the cotton, and he was depressed, but the other party was not a slave of the Hou Mansion, and there was the face of Princess Jing, thinking that he would marry the osmanthus to the son of the family, and he had already suffered a lot of complaints from his husband and daughter, so he had to hold back his anger and decided to call his son to have a good talk after returning to the room, so he threw off the handkerchief and left angrily.
A trace of astonishment flashed on Manru's face, and he was scolded by Peony in a whisper, before he came to his senses, glanced at Rouge unwillingly, and followed. Rouge sneered, raised his head and walked up to the upper room.
Amber turned her head, smiled at Chunying and the others, and stuck out her tongue: "My good girl, this drama is much more interesting than the haunting of the Heavenly Palace that I watched in Shangshu Mansion last year." ”
Pearl smiled and poked her in the head: "Silly girl, how does this compare to the Heavenly Palace?" ”
Chunying laughed with them, looked at the direction of the upper room, and then looked at the direction of the courtyard gate, raised her eyebrows, and thought to herself today, is it the east wind that overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind?
