Chapter 4 Rongshan Hall
The old lady lives in the Rongshan Hall in the southwest corner, through the shadow wall, through the garden, and then around the corridor, and walked for a while, and walked to the door of the Rongshan Hall. When I entered the courtyard gate and followed the verandah to the door of the hall, a little girl with beautiful eyebrows opened the curtain and came out with a smile and said, "The second girl has arrived, come in." ”
Ji Yunyun followed the little maid in, the room was full of flowers, she only glanced at it, and then knelt down towards the head, "Meet grandmother." ”
No one spoke in the room, Ji Yunyun lowered her head and waited for a while, before the old lady's cold voice sounded, "Get up." ”
Ji Yunyun got up from the ground and saluted to the two aunts sitting under the old lady, "Big aunt, second aunt." ”
The eldest lady Zhou has a beautiful appearance and a dignified temperament, she glanced at Ji Yunyun and said lightly: "I have grown taller and thinner." ”
The eldest aunt in the previous life did not tell her this, and as soon as she entered the door, she fell on the ground and cried to the old lady to complain about her grievances, which made the old lady impatient, and directly sent her back to her yard, and did not have time to say hello to the eldest aunt.
is obviously a very ordinary sentence, Ji Yunyun heard it, but her eyes were red, and she held back so that she didn't shed tears. After the death of her parents, she always thought that no one cared about her in this mansion, and she was really wrong.
"It's good to look good when you're thin, and the second sister is getting more and more beautiful now." A goose-faced girl sitting next to Zhou said with a smile.
The girl is the eldest daughter of the Zhou family, the eldest girl in the house, Ji Yunshu, she is gentle and kind, and she has taken care of Ji Yunyun a lot in her previous life.
Ji Yunyun cleaned up her mood, smiled at her, and said embarrassedly: "It's not as good as the big sister, the big sister is getting more and more beautiful." ”
"Yun'er has lived in Zhuangzi for a year, but she has become so good at talking." The second aunt Ye looked Ji Yunyun up and down with a pair of Danfeng eyes, and said with a smile: "As the old saying goes, I give birth to a daughter Xiao's father, how can I look at Yun'er, the more she looks like her mother, and it is almost like a mold carved out." ”
Everyone in the house knew that the old lady didn't like Ji Yunyun's mother, and she clearly said it to the old lady, and sure enough, when the old lady heard it, her originally cold face sank.
Ji Yunyun's expression did not change, and he said lightly: "This old saying may not be accurate, I look at the appearance and behavior of the third sister and does not look like the second uncle, but it seems to be carved out of the same mold as the second aunt." ”
Ye Shi listened a little embarrassed to say this, but she couldn't say anything wrong, she looked at Ji Yunyun, and was a little surprised in her heart, she was obviously a timid and weak girl before, but she didn't see her for a year, how did she become calm and generous.
Ji Yunlan, who was beside Ye, stared at Ji Yunyun with wide eyes, she felt that she clearly heard the meaning of ridicule from what she said just now.
Ji Yunyun was not frightened by the old lady's face as before, Zhou Shi glanced at her more, and then said to the remaining girls: "Qing'er Rong'er Rou'er, salute your second sister." ”
There are six girls in the Guogong Mansion, there are three in the big room, namely Ji Yunshu, Ji Yunqing and Ji Yunrong, there are two in the second room, Ji Yunlan and Ji Yunrou, and there is only one Ji Yunyun in the third room. The eldest uncle and the second uncle, except for the two ladies who are marrying Ming Media, all have concubines, only Ji Yunyun's father, only her mother.
Since seeing Ji Yunyun, the old lady's expression has been faint, and she waited until the sisters saw the ceremony before she spoke: "Your younger brothers are still in school, and the two elder brothers have not come back, you go back to the house to rest first." ”
"Yes, grandmother." Ji Yunyun blessed her body, and saluted the two aunts before withdrawing.
The courtyard of the three-room residence is the splendid courtyard in the southeast corner. When she was a child, she only came back to live for a period of time during the New Year's holidays, and then her mother died, and her father, a big man, couldn't take care of two children, and he didn't worry about leaving her and her younger brother to be taken care of by others, so he took them back to the Guogong Mansion. Later, her father also died, and her younger brother was taken by the old lady to raise her, and she was the only one left to live in this huge splendid courtyard.
The Splendid Courtyard had no master for a year, and the Zhou family did not dismiss the slaves in the courtyard, but they did not detain them, and if there was a good place to go, they would also let them go. was originally full of slaves in the courtyard, but when Ji Yunyun arrived, there were only three or four maids standing in the courtyard to greet her.
"The girl is back." Mama Lin, who was the leader of the nurse, took care of her since she was a child, and led a few maids to kneel down and wept.
"Mama, please get up." Ji Yunyun hurriedly stepped forward to help her get up, after her father died, Mama Lin had been taking care of her, and when she was sent to Zhuangzi, Mama Wang fell ill in anger and couldn't go with her. In the previous life, Mama Lin took care of her until she got married, and then she resigned and returned home, and now when she sees her again, she is kind and touched.
Mama Lin wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, held Ji Yunyun's hand and looked up and down, nodded excitedly: "Okay, the girl looks very good, I think I haven't been treated harshly in Zhuangzi this year." ”
After speaking, he remembered and hurriedly said: "The girl has worked hard all the way, I will let people carry hot water, and the girl will rest and rest after washing, and the house will be cleaned up." ”
After rushing for several days, she went to see the old lady and a group of people, Ji Yunyun was really tired, she simply bathed, changed into a soft and comfortable bedclothes, got into the quilt, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
"Girl, girl." She was awakened by Spring Peach.
She opened her eyes dimly, and the room was already lit up.
Seeing that she woke up, Chun Tao hung up the gauze tent and asked, "Girl, the kitchen sent dinner, get up and use it before going to sleep?" ”
Ji Yunyun woke up a little dazed, she buried herself in the warm quilt and didn't want to move, and asked in a soft nasal voice, "Are the uncles back?" ”
"The two masters haven't come back yet, but the young masters have all returned." Chun Tao paused, glanced at her girl, and said, "Mama Xiao from the third young master's side came here just now and said...... said that the third young master wanted to warm the book, so he didn't come to see the girl. ”
Chun Zhi came in from the outside with a copper basin, and when he heard Chun Tao's words, he couldn't hold back for a while, and remembered that the girl told him to be cautious in his words and deeds, and whispered angrily: "What Mama Xiao, the old man has only been dead for a few years, and they even changed the grandma next to the third young master." ”
Ji Yunyun leaned on the soft pillow, slightly closed her eyelashes and did not speak. Mama Xiao was sent by the old lady to her younger brother Yunting, and the old lady thought that Mama Zhao was strict and tight, and she suffered from her precious grandson, so she transferred Mama Zhao to the outer courtyard and sent Mama Xiao to serve by her brother's side.
Among the three masters of the Guogong Mansion, her father is the most outstanding, not only full of poetry and books, outstanding literary talents, but also Zhilan Yushu, handsome and extraordinary, and the old lady also likes this youngest son the most. Later, my father died, and the old lady was grief-stricken, and my younger brother was only seven years old at the time, because my younger brother looked like my father and was my father's only son, so the old lady took him to her side and raised her personally.
Pity my younger brother for losing his father and mother at a young age, the old lady treats him as a heart, and is obedient to him, and the people also hold him and coax him in everything, and after only four years of going to the old lady, the younger brother has developed an arrogant and arrogant, naughty and unenterprising character.
When my brother was taken to the old lady, she was only ten years old. When her father was alive before, their sister and brother had a very good relationship, but when her father died, she felt that she and her brother were helpless and under the fence in this country's mansion, so she made up her mind to urge her brother to study hard and grow up like her father. Therefore, she took care of her brother in everything, and whenever he was naughty, she would discipline him and punish him. The younger brother gradually began to be afraid of her, and later went to the old lady, and the younger brother borrowed the old lady to alienate her, and the two sisters and brothers gradually saw each other less, and then just after keeping filial piety to her father, she was framed and sent to Zhuangzi, and never saw her brother again.
After she came back in the previous life, her brother did not come to see her, she went to look for her brother several times, and saw that his brother was stubborn, anxious and angry, and wanted to control him as before. But the younger brother had long been tired of her discipline, the two siblings quarreled a few times, and said cruel words, she was cold to her younger brother, and she was no longer willing to care about him, and the two siblings became strangers. It wasn't until the day she got married that her brother chased after her and called her sister, and when she saw the tears in the young man's eyes, she realized that her brother had her sister in his heart, no matter what happened, blood was thicker than water, and they were always the closest sister and brother.
"If you don't come, don't come, Wen Shu is important." Ji Yunyun got up from the bed and asked Chun Tao to serve her and dress.
Seeing that the girl didn't care at all, Chunzhi was surprised: "Girl, when you were in Zhuangzi, you still wanted to see the third young master, how can you ...... now?"
Ji Yunyun smiled faintly, "I'm not in a hurry to come back now, I'll always be able to meet in the future." ”
In this life, she will no longer be so strict with her brother, she has figured it out, even if her brother is not as good as her father's study, as long as he does not do bad things, is safe and smooth, happy and healthy, it is enough.
However, she won't take the initiative to care about Ji Yunting, she wants that kid to take the initiative to come to her.
Chun Tao and Chun Zhi looked at each other in confusion, although they didn't know why the girl was so calm, but they couldn't say anything as subordinates, they served the girl for dinner, and when the girl rested again, the two of them also rested early.
In the eldest lady's Cuihua courtyard, Mama Zhang was telling her what she had seen and seen on the way from Zhuangzi to her return.
"The second girl seems to be very different, she has lived in Zhuangzi for a year, and when she went to pick it up, she didn't have the slightest resentment and grievance, but she was thoughtful and generous, and asked about the old ladies and ladies in the house."
Qiuhe, the big girl who beat Zhou's legs on the side, listened to it, and said with a smile: "The second girl was so delicate in the past, I thought she would be unable to hold back her aggrieved tears when she came back, who would have thought that she would be so calm and generous." ”
"She's grown up." Thinking of the little girl he saw during the day, Zhou sighed with emotion.
"Yes, the second girl has grown up, and she is getting better and better, but she is becoming more and more like the third lady, if she is like the third master, why would it be like this." Mama Zhang sighed, what's the use of being beautiful, without the support of her parents, and she is not liked by the old lady, life is not destined to be easy in this mansion.
Qiu He couldn't help but sigh a little, he was also the child of the third master, but because one looked like his father and the other looked like his mother, the treatment was very different.
"After all, it's our Miss Yan's mansion, can you still treat her harshly?" Zhou said lightly, and instructed Mama Zhang: "There are not a few people left to serve in the Splendid Courtyard, you can pick a few new ones to send over tomorrow." ”
"Yes, ma'am." Mama Zhang answered, replied a few more words, and then retreated.
