Chapter 023: Jealousy
"Sister, I'm really sorry, Xiu'er, she just missed it for a while." Liu Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to help Hongluan, and said words of apology in her mouth.
Hongluan looked at Liu Xiu, who was pale, bent down, picked up his shoes, and threw them hard.
The house is not big, Hongluan is a beggar and inevitably has to fight with dogs and beggars every day, and the fight is a matter of three days and two ends, which is of course much better than Liu Xiu: the shoe smashed on Liu Xiu's nose impartially.
Although Hongluan used a lot of force, the bottom of the shoe was not a stone or something, and the smashing of her nose made Liu Xiu's sore tears flow, but it did not hurt her; also because of the soreness, Liu Xiu didn't care about fighting back or scolding Hongluan.
Hongluan looked at Liu Zhen at this time: "It's nothing, everyone has it for a while, I just wanted to return the shoes to Sister Xiu, didn't I also miss Sister Xiu for a while." She said it very plainly.
Liu Zhen had already walked to Hongluan's side, and her outstretched hand wanted to help Hongluan, but she was stunned on the spot because of Hongluan's actions; She looked back at her sister first, and then at Hongluan, who didn't know what to say. No matter how you say it, Liu Xiu did it first, and although Hongluan also made her feel a little unhappy with her color, she couldn't say anything.
Hongluan didn't pay attention to Liu Zhen, went straight to the pit and sat down and asked the girl: "Sister, have you received your monthly money?" ”
The eldest girl was also going to ask Hongluan, but she looked up at Liu Xiucai and said softly: "I got it." After she finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and patted Hongluan gently: "The rules have always been like this, don't talk nonsense." This is a reminder that Hongluan is also good for her.
Hongluan nodded lightly, she knew what she could fight for and what she couldn't.
Liu Xiu jumped up at this time: "Are you doing it on purpose, don't you still have the face to say such things here!" Who do you want to flatter, you are thick-skinned and capable, but why do you have to harm us? What kind of enmity we have with you. ”
Hongluan was beaten by Liu Xiu when she entered the door, she knew that Liu Xiu was deliberately going to beat her, and after she hit her back, she didn't bother with her anymore, and she didn't want her to dare to yell at herself; At the same time, she also noticed that Liu Zhen's face was also very bad.
"Shut your mouth, or I'll miss something again in a while, and my palm accidentally falls on your face, don't blame me." Hongluan replied coldly, for people like Liu Xiu, she just can't give her a good face, otherwise Liu Xiu will definitely think that she is easy to bully and scold her every day.
Liu Xiu's face turned pale with anger: "You still dare to speak, it's not your fault that we only get so little bit of our monthly money?" You have the craft, you have the skills, you can make money to feed yourself, but what about us poor people? There are a few people in the east chamber who are just doing some sewing work at home, and the embroiderers can almost be said to be a little bit, how do you let us live? ”
Hongluan looked at her and sighed softly in her heart, she really didn't know what the rules were in the palace, but the rules of the Yellow Palace maid listened to the words of the eldest girl and knew that it was not just today, it was like this before they newcomers entered the palace; No matter what the maid of the Yellow Palace said when she distributed the monthly money, it was definitely not her fault that everyone got less monthly money at the moment.
She got up and slapped Liu Xiu's face: "The rules in the palace are like this, didn't you hear what Sister Da Niu said?" Say I'm hurting you? I also want to ask why you have to get along with me, and splash me with dirty water no matter how clean it is. ”
Liu Xiu wanted to resist, but she twisted her arm and pressed it down on the kang: "No matter what your reason is, my aunt and grandmother told you today, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I really don't mind killing you." Of course, this sentence was said by her Fu'er to Liu Xiu.
Liu Zhen has come over to persuade her, but of course she prefers her own sister, so she pulled Hongluan up: "Xiu'er is not sensible, sister, you take some more; Even if it's for my sake, if there's anything wrong with her sister, just say it to me. ”
What can I do to her? After saying that, Liu Zhen couldn't tell Liu Xiu how to do it at all; It's just that seeing the sorrow and pleading in Liu Zhen's eyes, Hongluan said coldly: "It's just this time, it's just that I don't dare to accept my sister's words, you must know that my temper has never been good, just ignite the fire; My sister really wants to think about my sister Xiu, so I should persuade ...... more"
"Slap", Liu Xiu slapped Hongluan in the face.
Because Liu Zhen came to persuade her, she pulled up Hongluan and didn't let go of her hand, Liu Xiu saw that there was a chance to take advantage of the opportunity and burst out of the fire; She can't beat Hongluan alone, but she and her sister are naturally not afraid of Hongluan.
Liu Zhen shouted: "Xiu'er, what are you doing?" I don't apologize to Sister Hongluan yet. He turned around and said, "Sister Hongluan, you must ......."
Hongluan is extremely angry, beggars are indispensable, and it is very clear that Labian will help her - isn't that what Liu Zhen is like now? Regardless of whether Liu Zhen was intentional or unintentional, anyway, she was helping Liu Xiu by holding her hand now.
At that moment, she kicked away Liu Xiu, who was coming over again, pushed Liu Zhen down, and pressed Liu Xiu down on the kang again: "You really don't remember to eat." ”
Liu Xiu struggled: "Early death and late death are also death, our sisters will not embroider anything and sell it to make money to support themselves." ”
Hongluan looked at the big girl when she heard this, she now understands that Liu Xiu's madness today is related to embroidery work and monthly money.
The eldest girl raised her head from the embroidery work in her hand: "The handkerchiefs and other things we embroidered can be handed over to Aunt Huang to sell, and the proceeds can also be bought for some nests." ”
Hongluan looked at the big girl: "Why don't I see my sister, have you bought and eaten?" "Can you still buy food alone in the palace, she really doesn't know.
The girl's face was a little red: "Although there is no need to hide such a thing, it is not in accordance with the rules, and no one will do it on the surface." ”
Hongluan understood that it was not a rule at all, the main thing was that she was embarrassed to eat in front of the three of them: she would eat secretly if she was reluctant to divide it.
At that moment, she turned Liu Xiu over, pressed her leg on Liu Xiu's stomach, and patted her face: "You are stupid because you don't have the ability to fill your stomach, I have the ability to earn money to buy food, it is my ability; And because this daring person chews his tongue in front of and behind his back, you should be careful for me. ”
You have to work at night and embroider during the day, otherwise you will have to go hungry: no wonder there are few survivors in this courtyard.
Hongluan ignored Liu Zhen, who came to compensate for it with tears on her face: Liu Zhen is really honest and a little excessive, she doesn't have the slightest affection for such an honest and cowardly person; She sat down and began to think about it, it seemed that she had to act quickly, otherwise her body would really not be able to withstand it.
