Chapter Eighty-Five: Who Wants to Be Elevated?

Chapter 85: Who Wants to Be Exalted?

The little girls crowded into the corridor, stood on their toes and looked into the room, laughing like silver bells from time to time, and bowing their heads to each other, and laughing again.

Chunying pursed her lips and stood on the side to watch the excitement, looking from her point of view, she saw Mei Xiang sitting on the side of the kang doing needlework through the crack in the window, the crimson had been dyed on the root of her ears, and when she heard the laughter of the little girls outside the door, her head hung lower. Mei Xiang was embroidering on a piece of red silk, obviously the third young master's personal clothes, but there was a little girl there to discuss, whether it would be her wedding dress or red hijab. Mei Xiang was ashamed and annoyed, and finally couldn't help but turn her head and reprimand in a low voice: "Don't you have to work anymore?" It's not going to be scattered yet! ”

The little girls burst into laughter. Mei Xiang has always been a good person, and Huanhuaxuan has a happy event, so she can acquiesce if she is a little lazy, so no one really listens to her words. Until Lan Xiang was so noisy in the neighboring room that she couldn't stand it, she came out and scolded: "It's enough to rest for half an hour, let me go back to work!" It's not that you are married, what are you happy about?! ”

The little girls reluctantly dispersed, Chunying took a step slower, and was stopped by Lan Xiang: "Your injuries are all healed, right?" Don't pretend to be a lady, be diligent and move! The house doesn't let you eat white rice! Chun Ying glanced back at her and pouted: "Got it." I've been working since the other day......" she muttered as she walked out to the kitchenette to help.

Lan Xiang looked back at Mei Xiang, who lowered her head embarrassedly, she paused, and smiled reluctantly: "Look at me, I forgot to say hello to you." This is a rare good marriage, and there are few sisters in Manchu who can have such dignity and peace...... Young and capable, and favored by Mrs. Hou, you will be a high-ranking housekeeper in the future, and I will ask you to take care of it more. ”

Mei Xiang hurriedly said: "Don't say that, all. . . It's a sister who grew up together, so why bother to see the outside like this? You ......" she blushed and her voice was like a mosquito: "You will also have a good marriage." ”

Lan Xiang remembered Ping'an in her mind. The words were smiling with a three-point smile, a little sullen. Ping'an, who has been on an errand in the house since she was a child, is quite familiar with them because of her parents' identity, and she is quite familiar with them, the eldest girl who waits for the third young master, and she also thought that Mrs. Hou might marry one of them to Ping'an, maybe it was her, but she didn't expect that Ping'an would choose Mei Xiang by herself.

Manfu may never find Biping again. An is a better young manager, net worth, power, age, appearance, and temperament, all of which are the best choice, Mei Xiang really burned high incense in her last life, and she, do you really want to match a little girl casually? But...... Why?! Mei Xiang was the same as her, but one was deeply favored by the third young master, but the other was just not up or down, and now Mei Xiang is a hundred times stronger than her in marriage, and she will definitely take charge of the power of the house in the future, but what about her? can only be a vulgar little girl, and then like those vulgar mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, live a poor life day after day, quarrel with people all day long, eat wine and gamble money?!

Lan Xiang shivered, glanced at Mei Xiang again, and gritted her teeth back to herself. of the room. Mei Xiang felt that her expression was a little strange, but she didn't think much about it, but when she saw that there was no one in the room, she approached the head of her bed, and found a cloth bag under the quilt, revealing the half-made men's shoes inside, and a shy smile curved into the corner of her mouth.

There was another sound of footsteps by the door, which woke Mei Xiang, and she hurriedly stuffed her shoes. When I went back to the quilt, I looked back and saw that it was Lu'er.

Lu'er pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The third young master called you, don't patronize it. Bashful. Then he glanced at her bed, "What are you hiding?" Who is that for? How can I look at the size that doesn't look like the third young master? ”

Mei Xiangfei blushed and took a sip at her: "They all say that you are an honest person, but I look at it even more hateful than the dishonest one!" Go ahead, I'll be right there. ”

Lu'er bit the corner of the handkerchief and went with a smile, and Mei Xiang hid the cloth bag tighter before cutting her hair in the mirror and going to the main room. When she turned the corner of the corridor, she saw Rouge sitting on the railing, making a hat for the third young master in her hand, she smiled slightly and stepped forward to say hello. Rouge replied lightly, lowered his head and continued to work. Mei Xiang glanced at her a few times before continuing to walk forward.

The third young master, Li You, was reading a book in the house, and when he saw her come in, he said, "Close the door quickly, I have something to discuss with you." Mei Xiang was a little surprised, but she still did so, and then Li You asked her to move her foot and sit down in front of her, before she smiled and said: "It's really good that you marry Ping'an, it's rare that he has a heart for you, and he also asked Uncle Chen to propose to his mother." ”

Mei Xiang blushed and lowered her head, and whispered, "It's all the grace of the wife......"

Li You waved his hand and said, "You can just make up your mind about this matter." But my mother called me in the morning, and in addition to talking about your marriage, she also mentioned the candidate for the girl who will replace you. My mother meant that I should make my own decisions, and it was better to choose one from our courtyard, and I didn't have to transfer someone from another place. I couldn't make up my mind, so I wanted to ask, which girl do you think is good in our yard? ”

Mei Xiang also put away her shame when she heard this, and thought about it seriously. There was silence in the room for a while, and neither of them noticed that someone had turned into the side room from the back of the house, and it was Manru. When she heard their conversation, she was startled at first, and then she quickly hid behind the curtain and listened carefully.

Mei Xiang pondered for a moment, then said, "What does the third young master think?" You are also older now, if your wife wants to put someone in the house, it will naturally be rouge, or Manru is also good. ”

Man Ru held back his breath for a moment, and a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.

Li You pouted and said, "What are you doing about this?" I'm asking for something that can be done! Manru was a little disappointed, but listened carefully.

"If you say that you are capable," Mei Xiang thought for a moment...... "naturally Lu'er." Her qualifications by your side are only two years less than me and Lan Xiang, and she is not eye-catching on weekdays, but she works very quickly, and the girls up and down the courtyard are good friends with her. What is rare is that she is a serious person, and she has never liked to compete with others, but it is a pity that her temper is too good, she is easy to be soft-hearted, and she can't suppress the little girls. Lan Xiang was still there, and when Lan Xiang also went out, there was something insufficient. ”

Li You tilted his head: "Lan Xiang is not young anymore, I am thinking about letting my mother match her out this year, so that she will be annoyed all the time!" In today's second class, is there a girl who can replace her? Don't talk to me about the morning! ”

Mei Xiang sighed silently for the sisters of the same period, but said with a smile in her mouth: "What does the third young master think of Manru?" Although she has little experience, it is not bad to see how she acts on weekdays. Originally, I was afraid that she would be too soft, but when I looked closely, I felt that she also had a bit of temperament. It's just that it's much worse than orchid. Manru bit her lip, not knowing whether to be grateful to Mei Xiang or complain about her.

Li Youluo frowned: "Manru? I used to think she was good, but if you think about it, she is a bit of a broken mouth, always likes to talk about how others are, and I don't know whether it is intentional or unintentional. I used to think that she was saying bad things about others, but then I saw that she was talking and laughing with other girls, and her face didn't seem to be fake, and I didn't feel like it. Anyway, she's been here for too short a time for me to believe her. ”

Manru regretted it in her heart, and she couldn't wait to write off the things she had done in the past!

Mei Xiang smiled: "In this case, let Manru experience two more years in the second class." In fact, Lan Xiang is not old enough to go out, so it is better to keep her for a while longer. When Lu'er learns and Manru and the others know the rules, give her a rich dowry, and it will not be in vain for her to serve you. ”

Li You raised his eyebrows and readily agreed: "It's okay." In fact, Lan Xiang is also excellent, as long as she doesn't pretend to be smart. By the way, if Lu'er wants to rise, there will be one less person for the second-class girl, what do you think of Chun'er? ”

Manru paused, stopping his steps back.

"Chun'er...... Wouldn't it be too small? Mei Xiang hesitated, "It's been less than a year since she came." ”

But she could trust it. I'm short of a trustworthy girl. Li You said, "In the past, she was not very stable, but now she is much more stable." In the past few months, she has done things for me, and she has not aroused suspicion, and she is quite clever. Besides, even if she is promoted to the second class, she won't be able to work for a few years, and with the second-class status, it will be better to say it in the future. ”

Mei Xiang understood that he was referring to Chunying's departure from Zhou Nian in the future, and after thinking about it, she felt that it made some sense, so she smiled and said: "The third young master thinks it's good, so let's do it, Ming'er should I go back to my wife, or will the third young master tell my wife by himself?" ”

"Come with me before dinner, so that you don't have to be shy and forget what I said."

Mei Xiang was embarrassed, she never expected that when the third young master was discussing things seriously, such a sentence would suddenly come out, her face suddenly turned red, and she gritted her teeth and said: "The third young master has really grown up, let's transfer the rouge up and wait, I don't know when I can use it!" ”

This time, it was the third young master's turn to blush, and retorted: "If you say no, you don't need it, have you forgotten what I told you when she came last year?!" Doesn't her sister have a good marriage now? ”

Mei Xiang burst out laughing: "This is really what a child said." Third Young Master, if Osmanthus had not had this marriage, Rouge could still marry outside, but now it is not easy to do. Mrs. has spoken, and she will be a person in your house in the future. Although you can rest assured, she has been much more honest since she took over the drive, and although she still refuses to come to the main house to wait, she will no longer refuse your work. Isn't the robe you're wearing now her needlework? Ming'er asked Lan Xiang to teach her some rules of service, let her do some light work, and save her from being bored in the house all day long and ignoring people. ”

Li You didn't say anything, a little disappreciative in his heart, and there was an indescribable disappointment. He also discovered the changes in rouge, and it was naturally a good thing that she could recognize her identity, but it was better not to become the same as other girls from now on.

Manru quietly loosened the curtain and retreated silently.

She was very disappointed, although she had only been in Huanhuaxuan for more than a year, she asked herself that she had done her best, how many girls in the courtyard did better than her? Originally, Mei Xiang's marriage was an excellent opportunity, but I didn't expect to lose it like this, do you really have to stay up for a few years to get ahead?

She went back to her room, looked at the rouge under the porch opposite through the window, picked up the hand mirror, took a picture of her pretty face, sighed, slapped the hand mirror on the dresser, and sulked.

The posture is indeed incomparable, and besides, rouge is literate, can play the piano, and the needlework is not bad, what does she compare with others?

Manru bit her lip, and suddenly remembered that when the third young master and Mei Xiang talked about Chun'er, they had mentioned that Chun'er had "done things" for the third young master, and she was clever and "trustworthy". What did Chun'er do for the third young master? If you're cleaning the house, why worry about arousing suspicion? If you say...... If it's really important, can she do it too? If Chun'er can do it, so can she!

Chunying sneezed, touched her arm, felt a little cool, and hurriedly told Mung Bean about her guilt, and went back to the house to add a bijia. was about to go back to the kitchen, but was stopped by Mei Xiang. She said: "The third young master just wanted to read a book, but he remembered that the book was lent to Young Master Zhou, you have to come back after a trip, the title of the book is this." She unfolded a piece of paper in her hand, Chunying recognized the three words "Futian Collection" on it, responded casually, and walked outside the courtyard.

All the way to the garden, she avoided a few groups of people, went straight to the path, only turned the corner, but the corner of her eye swept to the green shadow behind her, she looked back suspiciously, but did not see any figure, she felt strange in her heart, could it be that she was wrong?

Just as she was thinking, a green shadow flashed in front of her, and she recognized that it was the second young master with sharp eyes, and couldn't help shouting in her heart, "Why is it him again", but she didn't dare to hesitate at her feet, and hurriedly retreated ten feet back, avoiding the bushes, but a green shadow flashed in the shade of the trees not far behind her.

This, this, this...... What the hell is going on here?! Second Young Master...... Aren't you coming from the front? And who's behind her?!

(Wiping a tear of sympathy for the stalker...... cheekily begged for pink tickets, and he was already a lot behind on the list...... )。.。
