Chapter 152: Showing Kindness
An Sheng smiled indifferently, pursed his lips and said: "At this point, my aunt doesn't have to worry about it, and don't urge, work slowly and carefully, and let them do a beautiful job The most important thing is to make them beautiful." I will also tell them two sentences, I will be rich to pay this salary, but I can't catch up. ”
Qian secretly snickered proudly in his heart: "With your words, I can rest assured." ”
"But ......" An Sheng paused and said, "This meal?" ”
"You don't have to worry about this, I know the rules of our craftsmen in the capital, so I must say hello." Qian patted his chest and packed the ticket: "The craftsman introduced by this acquaintance naturally can't be stingy, keep the meat, greet with good tea and good dishes, have a cold meal at night, and get up the room and purlin on the table, all in accordance with the rules of the capital." ”
An Sheng nodded: "I have also heard that the food of these craftsmen must not be neglected, otherwise they will hold a grudge in their hearts and secretly make a little bad and spoil the home feng shui, which will have an impact on the fortune of my uncle and aunt in the future." ”
An Sheng's words are not groundless, let alone alarmist, and Qian also understands the truth.
Legend has it that when Lu Ban, the originator of carpenters, passed down his craft, he also passed down a Luban ruler, which was engraved with feng shui markings.
If anyone secretly makes it bad and breaks this feng shui, it will really affect the fortune of future generations and make the family uneasy.
Anyway, there are a lot of related legends in the capital, with noses and eyes, so everyone has respect for the craftsmen who come to do things, and dare not offend.
Qian frowned and smiled: "That's natural, you have given this big salary, which solves the urgent need between me and your uncle, can I still deduct this food?" ”
An Sheng picked up the teacup and sent it to the guests: "Then rest assured, when I am free tomorrow, I will contact the craftsmen and ask them to go directly to the silk village to find my uncle to negotiate." ”
"No, no, no!" Qian hurriedly waved his hand: "Your uncle is too honest, you know, and he has never been in charge." You can let those craftsmen come to me directly, and I'll negotiate with them. ”
An Sheng's heart suddenly became clear, and he understood that all the things of the Qian family were hidden from his uncle, and he didn't dare to let him know. She didn't reveal it, nodded and agreed: "It's all the same." ”
When the matter was decided, the Qian family did not delay any longer, flattered An Sheng for a few words, and then resigned.
As soon as the Qian family was sent away, the Dragon Boat Festival came in to report: "Miss, master, please go to Aunt Rou's yard." ”
An Sheng was a little surprised: "What is my father looking for me?" ”
Dragon Boat Festival shook his head honestly: "I don't know." ”
An Sheng absentmindedly "Oh": "Xue Xiuliang's matter has eyebrows?" ”
"No, I heard that the big house still refuses to let people go, the uncle of the Xue family doesn't know how many times he runs to the house a day, and he comes to find Mrs. to be the master as soon as there is a stir, Mrs. is anxious for a mouth of fire, and there is no place to vent her anger."
Thinking about it these days, it is indeed quite a fire for her, everything is not going well, and her father is no longer obedient to her, and falls from the clouds coldly, can she feel comfortable?
"The feeling is that Xue Xiuliang suffered in prison?" An Sheng remembered that Yu Jingyun volunteered today, he shouldn't have acted so quickly, right?
"That's certain, they all say that kind of place goes in and then comes out, and if you don't die, you have to peel off the skin, can you have it?" Dragon Boat suddenly woke up and said, "The master shouldn't be asking you to help rescue the young master, right?" ”
"Let me? I don't have that ability. An Sheng denied it.
"This is not accurate, can't you talk in front of the prince of the Dingguo Mansion?" Dragon Boat Festival guess.
An Sheng shook his head categorically: "Impossible, if I really seek the Dingguo Mansion to help me intercede, won't it ruin our relationship with the big house?" Father would rather abandon Xue Xiuliang than listen to Xue's pouts in such a foolish manner. What's more, I'll take care of it! ”
The Dragon Boat Festival nodded with a relieved face: "Yes, that Xue Xiuliang should be punished." ”
An Sheng smiled slightly, dusted off the folds on his body, and went straight to Aunt Rou's yard.
Aunt Rou's yard is not big, but it has obviously been carefully arranged, even in late autumn, the flowers are blooming, the autumn is bleak, and when you enter the yard, you will be full of wonders and charms. Crested hairpins, rouge point snow, Yaotai jade phoenix, fairy lingzhi, swan dance, precious varieties of autumn chrysanthemum, everything, purple and red, is blooming noisy.
There was a little girl waiting in the courtyard, and when she saw An Sheng, she saluted respectfully, then turned to the house and said, "The second lady is here." ”
The bead curtain sounded, and Aunt Rou had already greeted her out, saying good luck to An Sheng, and then held her wrist with a smile: "Come in quickly, I'm talking to the master about you." ”
"There were guests in the house, so it was late." Anson explained.
"It's okay, it's better to come early than to come by chance, this crab is also freshly steamed."
Aunt Rou dragged An Sheng into the back room, Xia Yuan sat outside the front door, and nodded when she saw An Sheng: "Sit down, the crab I just caught today is the fattest time, so I asked you to try it." ”
An Sheng was a little flattered, but he didn't expect his father to be able to think of himself. Turning his head to look at Aunt Rou, Aunt Rou smiled tacitly, and An Sheng immediately understood that this was all the credit of Aunt Rou.
It seems that she really said good things about herself in front of her father. She had already begun to make gestures to herself.
Although it was beneficial to her that she was treated by her father, it was just a favor, but after An Sheng sat down, he still smiled gratefully at Aunt Rou.
The girl who was waiting on the side brought An Sheng a cup of ginger soup, An Sheng took two sips to warm his stomach, withdrew it, and brought a wash cup, in which was a piece of fresh orange. Ansheng washed his fingertips. After wiping it with a handkerchief, a set of eight small and delicate silver crabs was left in her hand.
In the past, the house often ate crabs in autumn, but there has never been such a particularity, it seems that this Aunt Rou is really an elegant person, and she has to prepare so many things to eat a crab.
"In autumn, it is a great elegance to hold crabs and drink chrysanthemums and compose poems, but unfortunately your father goes out early and returns late, and we can only be elegant at this time."
Aunt Rou cocked her slender magnolia fingers, skillfully lifted the crab shell, and handed the crab to An Sheng's bone plate. An Sheng owes his body and says thank you.
"I heard that the Qin family is here?" Xia Yuan asked loudly.
An Sheng nodded: "Yes, it was my aunt who came." ”
"On the Qin family's side, try not to move too closely, it's better for your aunt to stay away." Xia Yuan was a little displeased.
An Sheng lowered his head: "It's my cousin who is going to get married, and my aunt came to inform me." ”
"Oh, that's right, when I got married, I heard that your aunt also came to give makeup, and when your cousin got married, remember to ask your mother to send someone over to add gifts."
An Sheng responded in a low voice.
Xia Yuanwai scooped crab roe and crab paste with a long-handled spoon and ate it, and said coldly: "I am not in these days, you have been wronged." ”
An Sheng was stunned and raised his head.
"I've heard a lot of things from the people in the house, and you've done a good job."
Since the Xue family entered the door, An Sheng has suffered countless grievances, and no one in the house has come to his father to complain about himself. Who is so righteous that he is not afraid of the Xue family and runs to his father to chatter?
An Sheng glanced at Aunt Rou quietly, and Aunt Rou was looking at her with a smile, smiling meaningfully.
An Sheng's heart sank. Aunt Rou is now favored, and the Xue family is at a disadvantage, and it is reasonable for the people in the house to see the wind and rudder her. But in such a short period of time, she was able to inquire about so many details of the house, and encircled the people in the house, worked hard for her, and listened to her command, which shows that the means are indeed not low.
Seeing that the sky was not in the house, this Aunt Rou was secretly spreading clouds and rain, and it seemed that she was not idle at all.
Is she really the woman who grew up in a nunnery that is indifferent and peaceful, detached from the hustle and bustle?
An Sheng glanced at Xia Yuanwai again, he had suffered a lot of grievances in the past, and he had never seen him pity himself, and he always listened to and believed Xue's accusations against him.
Even if he was beaten by Lian Pozi and fell unconscious in bed for three days, he was cold-hearted, and even sent himself to Zhuangzi to fend for himself. Now the sentence "wronged" shows that these things are really viewed with a fair and just neutral attitude, and Aunt Rou has made a lot of contributions.
An Sheng thought that he was already cold to his father and would no longer feel anything because of his words. But today's words he understated made her heart surging in an instant, and thousands of bitterness surged into her heart at the same time, and her eyes turned red.
Aunt Rou gently held her hand: "What are you crying about?" Isn't your daddy back? In the future, your father will be the master of everything, don't be afraid, ah? ”
Xia Yuanwai sighed lightly: "It's all because I listen to and believe partially, and I indulge her too much, which makes her so unscrupulous." She is so vicious and jealous, she is really unworthy of being a mother. I will reprimand her and order her to change her ways. ”
An Sheng was even more surprised, did Aunt Rou's words make his father disgusted with the Xue family? Could it be that the Xue family's status in the Xia family is starting to falter?
As the saying goes, "heroes are sad to pass the beauty pass", let alone a soft-eared person like my father? At the beginning, Xue's was as beautiful as a flower, and with his unique means, he enveloped his father, making him dislike his mother.
And now, history repeats itself, Aunt Rou has won her father's favor with her gentleness, the pillow is slow, and the Xue family itself is not angry, others add oil and vinegar, and a rapid attack, so that my father immediately became cold to the Xue family in just a few days.
An Sheng bit his lower lip, held back his tears, and smiled embarrassedly: "It's just that I have some feelings in my heart, and my eye sockets are too shallow." ”
"Most people with shallow eye sockets are kind-hearted, and the second lady is kind-hearted at first glance." Aunt Rou praised casually and diligently persuaded An Sheng to eat more.
As soon as the two sang and harmonized, Xia Yuanwai felt a little mixed in his heart, and felt that he had really mistreated An Sheng before. It's just that the man is more restrained and reluctant to express it, so he also handed the crab paste and crab roe that was set aside to An Sheng, and asked her about the trivial things in the medicine house.
