Chapter 17: Ningdu City
Inside the city of Ningdu.
Yao Zhenzhen personally went to say goodbye to Qi Gong and the others, and thanked them for taking care of her along the way, and then followed Yao Yong and the others back to Yao's mansion.
And Qi Gong and the others also rested in the Qi family's other garden in Ningdu.
The entrance of Yao's house.
"Master, it's hard work." As soon as Mrs. Yao saw Yao Yong and the others, she stepped forward with a warm and happy face and asked softly.
"Well, let's go inside." When Yao Yong faced Mrs. Yao, his attitude was a little serious, and his tone was a little cold.
With that, he strode towards the Yao Mansion.
"Master, how are my parents?" Mrs. Yao chased after her and asked.
"Mother, my grandparents are very good, as soon as they heard that you are not well, they also let us bring back a lot of precious medicinal materials." Yao Yun walked up to Yao's house, grabbed her arm, and said coquettishly: "That's it, my grandparents miss you very much, I hope you will get better soon, and you can go back to see them." ”
Mrs. Yao, a native of Qiyang City, surnamed Su and Minghui, is Yao Yong's wife and Yao Yun's biological mother. She has a delicate figure, a round face, a pair of almond eyes, and a soft voice when she speaks, delicate and gentle.
"It's all my fault that my body is not angry, otherwise I will go with you on your grandmother's birthday this time." When Mrs. Yao mentioned her parents, she looked regretful.
"Master, I have ordered someone to prepare a hot water meal." Su Hui caught up with Yao Yong and said.
"No, I'll go to my eldest brother first, and you guys should go back first." Yao Yong stopped and said, "Oh, by the way, this is Zhen'er, she will live with us in the future, you can arrange it." ”
"Yes." Su Hui replied with a disappointed expression.
"Mother, my sister was met on the way back, she originally came to Ningdu to look for her father, but her father said that her father died three years ago, and her father saw that she was left with an orphan girl in their family, so he brought her back." Yao Yun explained to Mrs. Yao with a sad face the origin of Yao Zhenzhen.
mentioned her life experience, Yao Yun said with a sympathetic face.
"I've seen my aunt." Yao Zhenzhen stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"It's a sign." Su Hui looked at Yao Zhenzhen carefully and said.
"Yes, mother, I haven't seen anyone as good-looking as my sister." Yao Yun said with a grin.
"Are you the side branch of the Yao family?" Su Hui asked.
"Wei Yang." Yao Zhenzhen replied.
"Hmm." Su Hui nodded, and then instructed the maid behind her, "You go and place her in Luoxiangwan." ”
With that, Su Hui took Yao Yun and left.
"Second aunt, there are other elders in this family, and the juniors are coming back for the first time, should I go and say hello to them first." Yao Zhenzhen asked.
"No need." Su Hui replied.
"Yes."
When Yao Yunzi was leaving, he didn't forget to turn around and explain: "Sister, I live in Bixiang Pavilion, you have settled down, remember to come and play with me." ”
In this regard, Yao Zhenzhen just smiled back.
Luoxiang Garden.
"Girl, this? How can this live in people? After the maid who led the way left, Zhao said with a displeased face.
I saw that this Luoxiangyuan is not only the most remote courtyard in Yaofu, but also because it has not been lived for a long time, the furniture has long been incomplete, not to mention, and it is also full of dust.
This Mrs. Yao, even if she wants Yao Zhenzhen to live here, she should send someone to clean it up first, but she left them here like this, and no longer asked, which has the intention of leaving them to fend for themselves.
"Nurse, you go and tell Uncle Liu and ask him to bring all the things we brought into the yard." Yao Zhenzhen said indifferently.
"Yes."
At this time, it was already early, Yao Zhenzhen asked Zhao and the others to clean up the sleeping place first, and wait until tomorrow.
Although the Zhao family was very dissatisfied with the arrangement of the second lady of the Yao family in her heart, she also understood that people had to bow their heads under the eaves, but this clearly concluded that when the reality was in front of her again and again, she was really unbearable.
"Girl, how can they give you such a thing?" Zhao put the tray in his hand on the table, looking annoyed and angry.
I saw that on the tray, there was a bowl of cold rice, a plate of vegetables and pickles, this treatment? It is estimated that the people in this Yao Mansion eat better than her.
"That's it, let's ask Uncle Liu to get us a small kitchen tomorrow, and we won't eat them." Yao Zhenzhen said helplessly.
"Girl, this is so annoying." As soon as Yao Zhenzhen's words fell, Liu Quan walked in with a blue face.
"But they won't give hot water?" Yao Zhenzhen looked at Liu Quan, who was empty-handed, and asked.
"Alas! They say that there is not enough water for serious masters, and what kind of thing is an old slave? "Where is this scolding Liu Quan, this is obviously Yao Zhenzhen.
Compared with the anger of Zhao and Liu Quan, Yao Zhenzhen didn't think it was such a bad thing, after all, it was better to go straight like this than to accompany them to sing on stage.
She doesn't like to sing.
That night, Yao Zhenzhen simply wiped her body with cold water and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Liu Quan was left alone in Luoxiangyuan, and Yao Zhenzhen took Zhao to Mrs. Yao's place.
"Our master said that if you are not summoned in the future, you don't have to come over to say goodbye."
Compared with Mrs. Yao's disdain, Mrs. Yao's second lady is even more ironic.
"Our lady said that since she is the person brought back by the third master, let's live, but she worships the Buddha all the year round, and she has to take care of the affairs of the house every day, so she really has no time to take care of idle people."
Hearing this, a smile rose at the corner of Yao Zhenzhen's mouth.
"Girl, why are you so happy when they treat you like this?" On the way back, Zhao asked puzzled.
"They don't want to see me, and I'm happy to be pure, so there's nothing wrong with that." Yao Zhenzhen replied with a smile.
Anyway, she just thought it was good.
.......
Three days later, Yao Zhenzhen was lying on a swing in the yard holding a scroll and was fascinated by it.
"Girl, it's the third master who sent someone." Zhao stepped forward and said.
She hasn't seen him since she came back with Yao Yong? How could he suddenly think of her at this moment?
"Girl." While Yao Zhenzhen was thinking about it, I saw a maid walk in, her words and deeds were not respectful, "Our lord is going to hold a banquet tonight to invite the Qi family, and the lord is worried about the clothes you didn't attend, so let our girl choose the clothes and send them to you." ”
"I don't know which one of your girls is in this Yao Mansion?" Yao Zhenzhen looked at the tray in the maid's hand, a bright red brocade dress came into her eyes, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes.
"It's a shame that my girl still thinks about you all the time, and you turned your face and forgot about our girl?" The maid was unceremoniously angry for her girl.
"Presumptuous, what is your identity? How dare you speak to your master like this? Zhao scolded sharply.
"Hmph." When the maid heard that Zhao actually reprimanded her, she was even more unhappy, threw the clothes in her hand into Zhao's arms, looked at Yao Zhenzhen with disdain and said: "Isn't it just an orphan girl, it is also our father's kindness to bring you back, where is the master!" ”
"You ......" Zhao pointed to the back of the maid leaving, with an angry face.
"Okay, dog, always like to yell at people to prove that she is powerful, why should the nurse be serious with something that can't be on the table." Yao Zhenzhen turned around and put her hands on Zhao's shoulders and said with a smile.
"But, but she's too disrespectful to the girl." Zhao frowned and said.
"Nurse, she is not wrong, I am an orphan girl, although I am from the bloodline of the Yao family, but in the end, I am the daughter of the collateral line, not from the orthodoxy of the Yao family, and now I am back with the third master, and I am placed in this Biluo Garden." Yao Zhenzhen raised her eyes and looked around the courtyard, laughing at herself, "The situation may not be as good as those maids who have face in front of the masters." ”
"These three ladies seem to be gentle and generous, but they are so harsh on us, it's really not everyone's doing." Zhao said angrily.
"Nurse, what is this? If I'm not mistaken, tonight's feast is just the beginning. Yao Zhenzhen said thoughtfully.
"What do you mean, girl?" Zhao asked puzzled.
"Can't you guess what they mean?" Yao Zhenzhen gently stroked the clothes in Zhao's arms and said.
"This?" Zhao Shi carefully looked at the clothes in her hand, she pondered for a moment, then frowned and said: "This clothes are too gorgeous and gorgeous." ”
"This red is actually more suitable for my sister, I remember that my sister used to love this color the most." Yao Zhenzhen said.
"Girl, you haven't told me what you just mean?" Zhao said with a puzzled face.
"Nurse, do you know that the third master of the Yao family nominally said that he would raise me under his knees in the future, do you know what this means?" Yao explained.
"He said he would treat you like his own daughter." Zhao hesitated for a moment and said.
can say this, it is estimated that even she doesn't believe it, you look at the situation of her own girl after coming to this Yao family, she feels worried about the future of her own girl.
"Nurse, you forgot, although I haven't reached the end yet, I can also allow others." Yao Zhenzhen said with a sigh.
"Isn't it, the third master wants to borrow you to climb the Qi family through the dinner?" Zhao said with a look of surprise.
"Qi family? Didn't the nurse forget, what kind of lintel is the Qi family? Yao Zhenzhen laughed to herself.
"Miss, don't think about it too much, this dress was not given by the third master, I'm afraid that the sister-in-law of the Yao family saw that this dress was really good-looking, so she thought about the girl." Zhao reassured.
Yao Zhenzhen snorted coldly, would she Yao Yun be so kind?
"If you want the old slave to say, I think the girl is more red than the big girl?" Zhao praised heartlessly.
