Chapter 015: Mrs. Liu
Li Miaoxian twisted her eyebrows, "You mean, this time Aunt Fang suffered such a big secret loss, it was thanks to Xiuzhu?" "How could she, an eight-year-old girl who had just entered the house, have such great ability?
"Not really! It's just that the slave maid can't figure out how a few small osmanthus cakes, and a few words like that, actually play such a role. ”
Li Miaoxian didn't expect it, but at this time, her thinking was already far away, and she didn't answer Lu Ju's words.
The room was silent for a while, and only the sound of ticking water could be heard inside the bell leak. In the corner of the room, inside the bronze carved three-legged incense burner, the ashes were clearly extinguished, flashing with bits and pieces of red light. But no words could be heard in the house.
-- The Dividing Line --
In other words, because of Mrs. Fang's birthday in the Anguo Mansion, Aunt Fang worked hard every day, and she was so busy that she hit the back of her head with her foot, and she still found that there were still many things to be busy with, so she grabbed her daughter Li Miaoyu, the second lady, to help temporarily.
But the life of Duchess Anguo Liu is still like that, as calm as ever. Except, of course, when An Guogong rested in her courtyard. Whenever that time, Grandpa Guo would always finish his meal at her place, and then casually tell her something that she had and didn't, and finally let her rest and go to the room of hearts.
And every time at this time, Qingxing would hide out, and she didn't see him, but she was fine.
No, Mrs. Liu was lying on her side on a soft couch, and the little maid was half-kneeling on the ground and beating her legs with a beauty hammer. Qing Xing sat on one side, doing needlework in her hands. The two men spoke softly.
After a while, there was a sound of small footsteps in the courtyard, and a little maid shouted crisply: "Sister Luju beside the eldest lady is here." ”
Mrs. Liu turned around and sat up, and smiled at Qingxing, "It's Xian'er who sent someone." ”
"Yes!" Qing Xing responded with a smile, put down the needle and thread in her hand, stood up, and went outside to greet her.
After two steps and two steps, someone outside had already opened the curtain and walked in, leading green chrysanthemums behind him, and two little maids holding chrysanthemums.
Qing Xing only glanced at it, pinned her head to the side, bowed slightly, and stepped aside.
"Madam, the eldest lady sent green chrysanthemums to bring chrysanthemums to Madame." The maid wore a water-red dress, green armor, but combed a woman's head, and put two golden butterfly hairpins and two pink velvet flowers on her head. "If you want to say that this green chrysanthemum is a chrysanthemum, isn't it really the right time?"
Mrs. Liu glanced at the hearts and said with a smile: "Look at our hearts' mouths, aren't they becoming more and more eloquent?" ”
On the side, Xiuzhu buried his head in the delicate chrysanthemums, and quietly looked at the people in the room, and the others were also down. This Mrs. Liu is really a beauty, even if it is in the harem of the emperor's grandfather, it is difficult to find two.
I saw her cloud temples stacked, only loosely holding a white jade phoenix hairpin gently pulled up, looking lazy, and only wearing a homely lake blue placket jacket, eight long skirts of the same color, a pair of off-white magnolia embroidered shoes on her feet, dotted with pearls the size of rice grains between the stamens, as she moved, the halo on the shoes also swayed gently, it was really alive and fragrant, beautiful.
With such a mother, it is no wonder that the Tao would give birth to such a daughter!
While Xiu Zhu secretly looked at everyone, the red heart spoke again, "Madam, the eldest lady is really a beautiful orchid heart, and the flowers and slaves she chose are all good!" ”
Xiuzhu couldn't help but glance at the hearts again, this girl is smart, and she also knows how to find another way, instead of making a fuss about filial piety like others. It's no wonder that his appearance alone is 108,000 miles worse than his wife, and just by virtue of being beautiful, he has also won the favor of Grandpa Guo.
At this time, Lu Ju had already bent down to Mrs. Liu, and said with a smile: "Miss saw that the two pots of flowers in the yard bloomed early and rarely bloomed neatly, so she ordered the slave maid to bring someone to Mrs. to send them, saying that it was difficult for Mrs. to go out, and looking at the flowers could also relieve boredom." ”
Xiuzhu also hurriedly held the flower pot in his hand, bent his knees to synchronize with the dates, and then continued to make his own human-shaped wooden stake.
Mrs. Liu took a deep breath and said with a smile: "The smell of this chrysanthemum is really fresh, it's hard for that child to think of me." ”
Qing Xing smiled and took the pot of pink chrysanthemums from Xiuzhu's hand, put it on a high table, and turned around to ask: "Madam, is it okay to put it here?" ”
Red Hearts also took the flower pot in the hand of another little girl, and smiled gently: "I see that this flower is placed on the windowsill of the big kang near the window, but it is just right!" ”
Mrs. Liu first looked at the high point that Qing Xing was referring to, and then looked at the windowsill that Red Peach Ruo said, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she asked Lu Ju, "What are you young ladies doing these days?" I heard that Mrs. Tai banned her feet and punished her for copying books, but how did she copy? I just sent Mama Xia to the silver building and embroidery building outside, pick up the most novel and beautiful styles, choose two sets, and put them on when the lady has her birthday. ”
Mrs. Liu was born in the Beijing Palace, although she was a concubine, she also got the identity of a county lord when she got married. Although the county lord's dowry is not much, it is enough to feed and clothe their mother and daughter. Therefore, Li Miaoxian's dress and jewelry are stronger than Li Miaoyu.
Li Miaoyu is always secretly angry about this, I don't know how many times she secretly went to grind Aunt Fang, and how much she was angry. But Aunt Fang must be just a concubine after all, and the Fang family is not a big family, and Mrs. Tai's dowry back then was only a hundred or ten taels, how can she compare with others?
Today, Mrs. Liu said that she helped Li Miaoxian set a new dress and jewelry, and I don't know how long it will be annoying Li Miaoyu when the time comes!
At this time, Red Hearts thought of another possibility, set up the flower pots, and asked Lu Ju, "How many of the eldest lady's female rings have been copied?" I've heard that Mrs. Tai can say that it will take a hundred copies to ......."
Green Ju hurriedly waved her hand to the hearts and said with a smile: "That's so exaggerated, Miss is copying some every day now, and it's almost over!" "Miss's meaning, Madame's health is not good, if it is irrelevant, it is better not to reach Madame's ears, lest her condition be aggravated because of her, it is a sin to be a daughter. After a while, I had to whisper to Mama Xia, Qingxing, and Red Hearts, and restrain the people below not to talk nonsense.
After talking for a while, Mrs. Liu's face was obviously a little tired.
Lu Ju immediately retreated, walked out with Xiuzhu and them, and then carefully told Qingxing who sent them out about Miss's worries, and reminded Songeiyuan to be cautious, and then walked slowly all the way to Miaoxianju.
