Thirty, Huanhuaxuan

Princess Jing? Chunying remembered that it was the eldest lady who was married in this Hou Mansion, but her daughter went back to her parents' house, why did this daughter-in-law seem to be very excited? But also, it's probably a woman who is married to the prince, it's inconvenient to go home to see her parents, right?

There was a low voice in the upper room, Chunying couldn't hear it clearly, but she saw the curtain lifted again, and the girl who had just glanced at herself walked out, and said to the daughter-in-law: "It's a happy event for the princess to come back, and the sister-in-law is just a good time to go back and forth, what does it look like to shout here?" If you surprise your wife, can you afford it?! ”

The daughter-in-law was stunned, her face turned red, and she said, "This is ...... Isn't this the old lady in a hurry......"

"If the old lady is really in a hurry, it will be Liuli who will be sent at this time, sister-in-law, don't I know about it?" The girl glanced at her, turned back and stood solemnly, "Ma'am." As soon as she finished speaking, another girl ring opened the curtain, and An walked out, with a few more pieces of jewelry on her head, and she looked much more gorgeous. She nodded faintly, and then took the girl's hand and walked slowly out of the courtyard, and immediately seven or eight maids followed.

The daughter-in-law who reported the news was hung in place, her face was red and white for a while, and when she saw that everyone around her was watching her jokes, she muttered in a curtled voice: "This peony little girl is really spoiled by her wife, I am here for the old lady, and she dares to give me a face." ”

The girl next to Chunying listened to it and asked her with a smile: "This is our little girl's errand, my sister-in-law specially worked on two legs, and walked so far on a hot day, didn't she want to ask for his wife's reward?" Like the last few people who sent the news? ”

Everyone around laughed, and the daughter-in-law took a sip of the girl, turned around and left. The girl sneered, turned around, and replaced it with a friendly smile: "Let's go, your name is Chun'er, isn't it?" ”

Chunying was looking at it interestingly, and hurriedly replied: "Yes, my name is Lu Chunying, but everyone in my family calls me Chun'er." ”

"That's it." The girl smiled and motioned for Chunying to go with her, "I, my name is Wisteria, you don't recognize me, but my aunt recognizes you, and she specially asks me to take care of you more." She's married to Steward Lu, have you seen it? ”

It turned out to be Aunt Lu's niece-in-law. Chunying hurriedly said: "I know, Aunt Lu only came to our house a few days ago, and it turns out that you are her niece." ”

"My aunt's family has been freed, but now they are still in charge of the affairs of Xishan Zhuangzi." Wisteria took Chunying out of the main courtyard through the side door and walked into a sandwich passage, "But our family is still in the house." I worked as an errand boy in my wife's house, and although I was only a third-class girl, I was better than the other yards. If you're free, just come and talk to me. The place where you're going has everyone's eyes on the top of their heads, and you don't mingle with them. ”

Wisteria speaks in a special tone, glutinous, very good-sounding, and always has a smile on his face, which makes people easy to feel good at first glance. But I don't know why, Chun Ying always felt that there was no smile in her eyes, but her attitude was still quite kind, in a strange environment, there were people who knew each other, it would always be more reassuring, Chun Ying smiled and agreed, and whispered to her.

Chunying learned from Wisteria that the daughter-in-law's maid was named Peony, one of the big girls around Mrs. An's, and the other three were pomegranates, cloves and begonias. They are all very favored by Mrs. An, and they are in charge of all the big and small things in the upper room, and they can even meddle in the affairs of the house. Among them, although the peony people are harsh, but extremely shrewd, the most difficult to get along with is the clove, the best to talk is the begonia, if you make any mistakes, the clove will be heavily punished, but only ask for the begonia, as long as the mistake is not big, most of the big things can be turned into small things.

As for the Huanhuaxuan where the third young master lives, there are only two big girls, namely Mei Xiang and Lan Xiang, of which Mei Xiang is the leader. She is the oldest, generous and fair, and has a lot of prestige among the girls, and the old lady, the marquis, and the lady also trust her very much.

Originally, there were two second-class Juxiang and Zhuxiang, who were arrogant in their words and actions, but a few months ago, I didn't know what went wrong, and I was scolded by my wife and thrown out, and I heard that I was preparing to marry at home.

There are four other people in the second class, all of whom are very high-spirited, and the man Ru mentioned by Mrs. Fang just now, although she has a gentle temperament, is diligent in her work, and is very pleasing to the top, but there are also many people who don't like her and gossip about her behind her back.

There are the most third-class little girls in Huanhuaxuan, there are twelve including Chunying, and there are a few mothers-in-law who do rough work at night, so the work there is not heavy......

Chunying listened to Wisteria's introduction all the way and memorized her words all the way. Although there are so many names that her mind is a little confused, intelligence gathering is absolutely necessary, she doesn't know how many years she wants to stay in this Hou Mansion, it's one thing to not want to come in, it's another thing to be caught in the wrong place with a dark eye.

And Cui Manru, who brought her in, was in a complicated situation in her own right, and she was not interested in getting involved.

While talking, I came to a clearing, with flowers and trees, and a unique scenery. Chunying guessed that this was probably a garden. Sure enough, Wisteria introduced: "In front of the moon cave door is the garden, we can go there to play after we finish our work on weekdays, it is big, there is a small lake, in the summer, the young masters and young ladies are rowing on the lake, watching the fish raised in the water." However, the rooms above and below the mountain cannot be let in casually, nor can you speak loudly to the left and right, you have to remember it. ”

"I see." Chunying replied, "How long will it take to arrive?" Does the third young master live so far away? "They have been walking for nearly ten minutes since they left the main courtyard, remembering that the third young master is the only son of his wife, how can she be willing to let him live so far away from her?

Wisteria smiled and said: "A few years ago, the third young master was still living in the main courtyard, it was last summer, when the third young master planned to move out, he said that he wanted to find a place with a good and quiet view, where he could read and learn to paint without being disturbed, so he chose this small courtyard on the south side of the garden." At this time, they had already walked to a courtyard gate, Chunying looked up, and sure enough, she saw the word "Huanhua" written on the plaque above the courtyard gate.

It is said to be a small courtyard, but in fact, the place is not small at all. This is a two-entry courtyard, the front one into the study and the reception room, the courtyard is boxy, extremely spacious, the side is planted with a slip of osmanthus, now it is blooming just right, the fragrance is bursting. There are two Xifu begonias in the corner of the courtyard, which have passed the flowering period, and there are small fruits hanging on the branches. The courtyard at the back is smaller, the bedroom and the studio are here, and the wings on both sides are where the girls live. The houses are all painted with whitewashed walls, dark brown columns, jet-black tiles, doors, windows and pillars of the same color, and the decoration of the verandah window ridges is all ice fried. It is a little different from the solemn and rich style of the main courtyard, and it gives people a clear feeling.

The third young master, the owner here, seems to be a little different from the character she imagined to be like the second master.

Chunying followed Wisteria all the way to the backyard, and the latter whispered about the situation in Xuanzhong, and stopped talking when she saw the two girls standing at the door of the main room.

When one of the girls saw Wisteria, she raised her small nose: "It's you again?" What to do? You haven't given me the money you lost last time. "It's not loud.

Wisteria grimaced at her, but smiled first: "Sister Peony asked me to bring the new little girl over, I am on a serious errand." Is it inside? ”

This question was a little clueless, but the girl understood: "Here, I'm painting, you wait under the porch for a while, don't disturb him." After that, he glanced at Chunying with some curiosity: "Didn't you say that there were two?" What about the other? What's your name? The latter sentence is said to Chunying.

Before Chunying could speak, Wisteria had already answered for her: "This one is called Chun'er, and the other is called Yin'er, and I was sent to Aunt Hua by my wife." She winked, and the girl sneered clearly: "There are so many flies in this world, and I don't want to see if I am worthy!" ”

Chunying glanced at the carefully made makeup on her immature face, lowered her eyes, and sarcastically in her heart: They are all the same flies, is anyone more noble than whom?

Another girl stared at Chunying a few times, and suddenly asked, "You are the girl recommended by Manru?" Who are you? Sister or cousin? ”

As soon as she said this, the girl immediately looked at her with a disgusted gaze, and even the girls who were sitting at the other end of the corridor doing needlework stopped what they were doing and paid attention to the movement in front of the main room.

Chunying secretly complained, scolded Miss Cui a few times in her heart, and said, "How can she be my sister?" It doesn't matter at all! It's just a compound. ”

The two girls showed strange looks, and Wisteria smiled and said, "Sisters don't know? She was supposed to come in at the beginning of the year, but somehow let Manru take on an errand, so she was delayed until today. She's an honest person, my aunt and her mother are acquaintances, so my sisters should take care of me more. ”

One of the girls smiled, "I see." I also heard that the person who replaced Manru was sick, and now he is getting better. ”

Chunying replied, "It's been fine for a long time, but it's just a cold." ”

Another asked, "Whose daughter are you?" Where are the parents on errands? ”

Chunying glanced up at her: "My father is in the gatehouse, and my sister is in the old lady's house." ”

Hearing her say this, the attitude of the two girls became more cordial, and they also took her hand and asked long and short questions, Chunying felt that the goosebumps on her body were about to fall to the ground.

Wisteria watched with a smile, occasionally reminding them to speak quietly, but someone in the room still lifted the curtain and scolded them for being too noisy. A few girls hurriedly stood back respectfully.

Chunying carefully and secretly looked at the girl ring that came out, and saw that she was already seventeen or eighteen years old, guessing that she was probably a first-class girl, but I didn't know if it was Meixiang or Lanxiang.

The big girl listened to Wisteria's introduction to Chunying, and stared at her a few times, until she felt a little hairy in her heart, and then said lightly: "Go back and wait for the third young master to be free, I will go back, you just wait under the corridor." He also called Wisteria: "You go back first, so that your wife has something to order." Wisteria hurriedly said: "Mrs. is at the old lady's place, I heard that the princess has returned, and I will stay here to make it." ”

"Big sister is back?" A crisp young man's voice came from inside the room, "Who's out there?" ”

Wisteria hurriedly said: "Third young master, I am Wisteria, just now the people in the old lady's house went to the courtyard to report that the princess Niangniang was back, please come over." Doesn't the third young master know? ”

There was a commotion in the house, and Chun Ying faintly heard the young man telling the girls to pack up their painting supplies, as if she was going to rush to see her sister. At this time, there was a commotion in the front yard, and a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl walked over quickly and said: "Third young master, don't be busy, the princess has already gone back, saying that there is still an urgent matter in the palace, leaving Miss Yunzhu to see you, and bringing you two people." ”

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a handsome big boy walked out, Chunying didn't have time to see his appearance clearly, he was squeezed to the side by a group of girls who appeared out of nowhere, and a group of women poured into the front yard, and the originally empty courtyard suddenly became crowded.

Huanhuaxuan's calm was immediately shattered.

(I hope you don't think there are too many names...... )
