Chapter 9: Su Yongyue
Early the next morning, Steward Su brought news that he was willing to take in our mother.
My mother is very happy because we not only have a place to live, but also get the monthly money at the end of each month. I'm also happy, not to mention being a subordinate, even if it's anything else, as long as I am given a bite of food to live, I will be satisfied. In the past, Hanashita often called me back and forth, and somewhat, I still accumulated some experience.
"Mother, am I going to be a maid for the rest of my life?" I don't like it when the flowers call me, so I don't want to be a maid for the rest of my life.
"Silly boy, even if you are willing to Su Fu, you don't want to, how can anyone want to raise a subordinate who eats rice, and when you are old, they will send you home." My mother smiled happily, as if being a subordinate was like making a common meal.
"But, mother, I want to go home." I haven't given him the bracelet I gave to Chen Er yet.
My mother touched my head and seemed to have made up her mind, "Okay, we'll go back when we save enough money." ”
"Yes." I was happy, and by that time, the town of Flowerless should have almost recovered. Then, my mother began to tell me the news she had heard, and she said that when working for others, you must find out the temperament of the master, so that you can do less wrong things.
The owner of Su Mansion, Master Su, is the fourth grade school of the current dynasty, with two daughters and one son. The eldest daughter Su Yongmei has entered the palace as a concubine, her sons Su Han and Su Yongmei were both born to the eldest lady, and the second daughter Su Yongyue was born to the second lady.
In the end, my mother warned me with a cautious look to be careful of Su Yuyue, because she is not a good master.
I was stunned when I heard this, but I didn't expect my mother to inquire about so many things, and my heart became curious about this lord who is not a good lord.
No, here's your chance. Just when I was arranged by Qinggu to go to the garden to clean the fallen leaves, a coquettish cry almost scared off the broom in my hand.
"Whew! Are you the person brought in by Steward Su? ”
I looked up at the girl in front of me, dressed in light green, with a thin nose and pink lips and eyebrows.
"Hey, did you hear me?"
"You are Su Yongyue?" I guess.
Her cherry-like eyes rolled, "Hmph, count you as knowledgeable." It's a pity that Miss Ben is in a bad mood today, and you are ...... when she meets me Unlucky. ”
I was surprised, but I suddenly felt a pain in my forehead, and when I touched it, my palm was red. I stared at her with wide eyes and disbelief, and finally understood what my mother was saying about "not good", and sure enough, ...... Poor.
"How? Miss Ben's accuracy is not bad, right? "There is still a trace of beauty on a smug face.
What's my business if you're in a bad mood? I was depressed, so I picked up the broom and rushed to her, I don't care who she is!
She was obviously taken aback by my momentum, but that was it. She hit me, and after the class, I had to be beaten by her under me.
The people around me didn't dare to step forward when they saw it, and it wasn't until Steward Su rushed over that I stood up and wiped my nosebleed.
"Steward Su, this subordinate bullied me, hurry her away!" A voice with grievances sounded. Such an obvious lie, but she said it reasonably.
I didn't speak, in fact I couldn't speak in pain. I didn't expect her strength to be so strong, and when I was pressed under her, I didn't have the slightest strength to parry. Suddenly realized, how could she not be able to work hard in the captain's house? I knew I couldn't mess with it, so I hid.
"Second Miss, what will happen if this matter reaches the ears of the master?" Steward Su's voice was unfazed.
"Just check, check it, is my father still facing a subordinate."
"Then what if it reaches the palace and says that the second lady of the Su family has a big fight with her subordinates?"
I stared blankly, my face that was still arrogant just now suddenly turned blue and red, and finally I only weakly said "forget it", and then ran away, quite a bit of a feeling of running away.
Odd!
Is Su Yongyue afraid of the emperor?
"Your name is Youran."
The housekeeper looked at me distressedly and stuffed me with a piece of silver, "The monthly money will not be paid yet, you can take it to the pharmacy to grab some medicine first." After saying that, I walked away, and I didn't even have time to refuse.
On the way back, thinking about Su Yongyue's strange expression just now, I felt more and more complicated about this time.
I shook my head and didn't think about it. When I looked up, I found that everyone who passed by looked at me differently, some sympathetic, some mocking, and some I couldn't understand. I think I've gotten uglier because they didn't look at me that way when I first arrived.
"Mother!"
As soon as I entered the door, I saw my mother wiping the table, and tears rolled down in an instant. I was startled and hurriedly wiped my eyes with my sleeve, but the dust from my sleeve got into my eyes, and there were more tears.
My mother hurriedly threw away the cloth in her hand, walked up to me, looked left and right at me, wiped my eyes, and asked urgently, "What's the matter?" How is it blue and purple? Yes! It's bleeding! As he spoke, he took out his handkerchief and wiped it gently.
"It's Su Jiyue, we have a fight. She was in a bad mood, so she threw a stone at me. "As soon as I spoke, I grinned in pain.
"Silly daughter, didn't you hide from her? These two young ladies are really deceitful! Let's go, let's not stay here, let's ask Steward Su to resign! "As he spoke, he pulled me out.
I stood still, "Mother, I'm fine, I'll leave when we have saved enough money, I'll avoid her in the future." "If you want to leave, you have to earn her family's money before leaving, if it weren't for the pain at the corners of my mouth, I would have wanted to smile at my mother.
My mother almost cried, her eyes were shining, "My mother is really sensible." Okay, let's save enough money and go! ”
"Yes, mother." I also put my arms around my mother. In fact, there is another thought in my heart, didn't she want to drive me away? Then I won't let her get her as she wants and be angry with her.
I took Steward Su's money to my mother, and my mother sighed, and after saying "I will pay it back in the future", she went out to grab medicine.
I twisted my waist and saw a ...... with a blue nose and swollen eyes in the mirror Person! If you don't look closely, you may not be able to tell the men and women.
I have written down this hatred.
I was forced by my mother to drink medicine and apply medicine, and within a few days, I got much better, but I had a scar on my forehead. Although the scar is small, it can be an eyesore on the face. In the end, I had to comfort myself, anyway, it's not beautiful, and there are multiple small scars. It's just that it made my mother feel distressed for several days, and I almost had to settle accounts with Su Yongyue again.
What I didn't expect was that there were suddenly more women in the courtyard who came to visit me, saying that I had taken a bad breath for them, and they had long been unaccustomed to the second miss of the Su family, and I was the only one who dared to fight her.
I just smiled at what they said.
The head of the hospital, Qinggu, didn't let me clean it again, saying that I should heal my injuries first. I don't know when she got so good, is it just because I had a fight with Su Yuyue?
At that moment, I actually felt that Su Yunyue was cute.
Maybe because I didn't go out, I haven't seen her since. I was also happy, and hurriedly asked Qinggu to give me a heavier job.
Qinggu looked at me strangely for a while, after all, I am such a lazy person. In the end, I got an errand to carry water in Qinggu's strange eyes.
For this errand, I secretly enjoyed it. Because what I want is to train my arms, and when my arms are thick, I won't be afraid of her.
The night is quiet, the night breeze is light, everything seems to be sleeping, but—
I ran back and forth a dozen times at once, and finally I couldn't lift a bucket of water anymore and sat on the ground.
During the day, Qinggu couldn't get used to me working so hard, so she didn't let me pick a full tank anymore. When I had some free time, I went to the kitchen to the left and looked to the right to see if there was anything I could do.
My mother was very surprised by this, because I used to work all the time. My explanation for this is that children will always grow up.
It's just, have I really grown up?
