Chapter 9: Returning to the Jade Mansion (2)

Madame Yu took a step forward slowly, her posture elegant and noble, and Yu Chujian followed her, looking at the mansion with a pair of eyes like elk with apprehension.

The house of the jade mansion is the brick building of the top of the mountain type, enter the door, it is a bluestone paved avenue, there are two courtyards on both sides of the road, the end of the road, is the front yard hall, there is a pair of bronze lions in front of the door, and the lintel hangs the plaque of "positive heart and self-cultivation". In front of the hall door, there are two verandahs, left and right, which are connected to the corner gallery and lead to the backyard, and the inner wall of the corner gallery is painted with huge murals.

It's really luxurious and rich, this is the world's first show spinning, the jade family.

Mrs. Yu stepped into the Jade Mansion and walked a few steps, and immediately two men dressed in cotton green shirts and black belts shouted forward, "Who, who, why didn't you come in without saying a word." ”

The two of them squinted at them, their hands on their waists, and they looked very spirited.

Yu Chu was stunned, and the two of them were also a little presumptuous, and they were so arrogant.

Sure enough, Li Niang lowered her face and looked at the two little guys coldly, "Are you new here?" Mrs. Yufu doesn't recognize it either! ”

The two little maids glanced at each other and laughed out loud, "Our lady is in the backyard, whose lady is your wife going to the wrong door?" ”

When Mrs. Yu heard this, she didn't get angry but laughed, "I want to know, how did a concubine become a lady, go and call Chen Zhenhui out for me!" ”

"Presumptuous, is the name of our lady called by you casually? Quick, get out, you've got the wrong door. The two little guys waved their hands, and became impatient.

When Mrs. Yu heard this, she just glanced at the two little maids lightly, and Liniang on the side also sneered and said to the two of them, "Aunt Chen is really good at disciplining the family, Madam has only been staying in another courtyard for a few days, and she will be driven out when she enters the house." ”

The faces of the two little servants changed, and they seemed to feel that something was wrong, and they looked at each other, and just when they didn't know what to do, a high-pitched cheer came from behind them.

"What is this doing, a group of people don't have to work around the gate?" The visitor was a man in his mid-forties, dressed in a gray cotton coat and dressed as a butler, who strode with the hem of his clothes in one hand.

When the two little servants saw the visitor, they immediately showed joy, "Uncle Jiang, you came just in time, a few women here have found the wrong door, and we are in a hurry." ”

That Uncle Jiang is the housekeeper of the Jade Mansion, when he approached and saw Mrs. Yu's cold gaze, his face changed slightly, and he choked up a little, he was a member of Mrs. Yu's mother's family, and he also knew the grievances that Mrs. Yu had suffered in the Yu family in the past, and now when he saw her come back, he was excited for a while, "Husband...... Madam...... You're back. ”

"Uncle Jiang" Mrs. Yu stretched her brows and smiled softly.

Uncle Jiang wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve and nodded at Mrs. Yu, "It's good for Madam to come back, it's good to come back" After speaking, he turned his head and shouted at the two little guys who had been stunned, "Why don't you go and tell Mrs. Chen...... Aunt Chen. ”

Madam Yu's eyes flashed slightly, her eyes didn't know where to fall, and she sighed, "It's like this." ”

Uncle Jiang was slightly embarrassed, he hurriedly asked people to move things in, and the people who followed Mrs. Yu to Yancheng were all old people from the previous Jade Mansion, and when they saw Uncle Jiang, they all looked happy, but they didn't dare to show it, they just hurriedly moved everything to the backyard.

Uncle Jiang led Madame Yu into the hall and explained in a low voice beside her, "After Madame left, Aunt Chen asked the people in the house to call her Madame, sir...... The old man didn't say anything, so the family ......"

"Uncle Jiang, you don't have to explain, I understand." Madame Yu interrupted Uncle Jiang's words, the smile on her lips became even bigger, she straightened her back, entered the hall with firm steps and graceful steps, looked around, and sat on the Taishi chair facing the door.

Uncle Jiang rubbed his hands, his expression was still difficult to hide his excitement, Yu Chujian observed the hall, the furniture was mostly made of rosewood, the red lacquer lattice window was covered with white gauze, there were two Taishi chairs in the right position, and there were also four Taishi chairs on each side, Mrs. Yu sat in the right position, Li Niang followed her side, and Yu Chujian and Cui Ziyin stood on the other side.

There were originally two girls standing on both sides of the vermilion red pillars in the hall, about the same age as Lingyu, when they saw Lingyu, their expressions flashed with joy, but they suppressed it, and they just saluted Mrs. Yu with red eyes.

Madam Yu looked at them and was silent for a moment, "Qiu Yu, Xia Yu, why are you here standing in the hall?" ”

The two girls looked at each other before they said, "Aunt Chen said that there are not enough people in the front yard, so ...... So I went to Xiuhe Courtyard to transfer us. ”

When Mrs. Yu heard this, she pursed her lips and said silently, but Liniang on the side said angrily, "How can you not adjust the girl of her Huaichun Courtyard if she is not enough, and she actually moved to Madame's Xiuhe Courtyard." ”

Uncle Jiang smiled dryly on the side, and when his shrewd and narrow eyes saw Yu for the first time, a flash of surprise flashed, "This ...... Is this the second girl? It's so marked. ”

Seeing that everyone's attention fell on her, Yu Chu smiled sweetly and bowed to Uncle Jiang, "Uncle Jiang"

Except for Mrs. Yu, Li Niang, and Lingyu, everyone else was shocked by Yu's first sight, and after not seeing each other for a year, these two girls have changed so much.

Uncle Jiang quickly came back to his senses and returned the salute, "Second girl, don't dare to be this gift." ”

"There's nothing you dare not do, Uncle Jiang, you are her elder, you haven't seen each other for a long time, you should give you a gift." Mrs. Yu looked at Yu with a smile when she first saw her, and only at this moment did her eyes contain a little warmth.

The corners of Uncle Jiang's wrinkled eyes were wet, and he looked at Yu Chujian with emotion, "Second girl...... The second girl has grown up and is sensible. ”

Yu Chu saw that his sideburns were sweating when he heard it, and he didn't dare to say anything more, for fear of being seen as a horse's foot.

And at this moment, there was a sound of rustling outside, and Yu Chujian looked up and saw a man wearing a blue Suzhou embroidered round cardigan and a wide cloak striding in.

"The master is back." Uncle Jiang greeted him with a smile, as soon as he saw his wife, he had immediately ordered the little servant to go to the embroidery workshop to tell the master, but he didn't expect the master to come back so soon.

Yu was a little stunned when she first saw it, her father was so young and handsome, she looked at Mrs. Yu, and her heart was a little low.

The warmth in Mrs. Yu's eyes dissipated, and all that remained was a layer of indifferent alienation, she slowly stood up, and a beautiful smile bloomed at the corner of her mouth, but she couldn't smile her eyes.

"Master" She bowed to Master Yu, and Liniang and Lingyu behind her also saluted.

Master Yu looked in a trance for a while, he looked at Mrs. Yu in a daze, as if he didn't believe it, he took two steps forward and came to Mrs. Yu, the veins in his eyes were surging with emotions that he couldn't see, he helped Mrs. Yu up, his voice trembled slightly, "娥"

Yu frowned at first sight, this jade master has such an expression now, but anyone who looks at it will feel that he has a deep affection for Mrs. Yu.

It seems that her previous guess that her father didn't like her mother and sent them to Yancheng was wrong.

Madam Yu smiled softly, withdrew her hand, and lowered her eyes not to look at Master Yu, "Master, the concubine is back." ”

Master Yu clenched his fists, a touch of grief flashed in his eyes, and his voice was a little hoarse, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”
