Chapter 7: Green Pu
Jin Chao actually just wanted to know how many things she had in her hands, she had a bottom in her heart, and she usually had to pay attention. In his previous life, he didn't care about these things, and even his mother's dowry was relieved to be taken care of by the steward below, but as a result, the store suffered serious losses, and the harvest of the grange was getting worse year by year. Jin Chao later married into the Chen family, and only then did he care about the dowry left by his mother, although his own things became less and less, those stewards were fat one by one.
Looking at Tong's mother's sincere fear, she should know what she is like to these subordinates on weekdays.
After so many years in the small courtyard, the Jin Dynasty also has a lot of experience. It's not easy to be a subordinate, when she is not even as good as a subordinate, how can others experience that kind of taste. After she got up, she gently helped Tong's mother up, and said with a smile: "Tong's mother is serious, I just asked casually, since it hasn't been cleaned up for a long time, then open the warehouse to clean it up, and show it to me after cleaning." ”
Tong's mother heard this, but she couldn't hide a trace of joy, the eldest lady let herself open the warehouse to clean up, which means that she wants to come back again? She was still a little unsure, and said, "The errand of the slave over there in the bamboo building......
Jin Chao said: "You are my housekeeper mother, and the errand of Yizhulou is naturally done by others." ”
Mother Tong looked at Miss and kowtowed several times to thank her, thinking that it was rare for Miss to be so good at talking.
At noon, Liuxiang came back with Qingpu. Qingpu combed a simple bun, did not wear any jewelry, and wore a thin cyan jacket and a brown skirt. The body is very long, two inches taller than Liuxiang, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and a delicate face. She's a lot thinner than she was a year ago, and her cheeks are a little sunken.
Seeing that she didn't have jewelry to wear, Liuxiang took her own gilt bracelet and gave it to her, Qingpu hurriedly refused, she smiled and said: "You are dressed shabby, others still think that our eldest lady is not having a good time!" Qingpu blushed before accepting the things.
Liuxiang has some feelings, when she first came to Qingtong Courtyard, Qingpu was still a big girl, but now it is her turn.
Liuxiang first asked Qingpu to find Chang Pozi to divide into a lower room, she was just about to get to the lower room, and happened to see Yutong holding an enamel colored fish algae pattern vase coming over.
Yutong bent down first and said, "Miss Liuxiang is back." ”
Liuxiang asked her, "The one who brought the green cattails back, where are you going to go with this vase?" ”
Yutong replied to her with a smile: "Miss asked Sister Caifu to pick up a lower room for this newcomer Qingpu to live in, and said that she used a silver spoon to spoon the curtain with carved begonia flowers, and found another vase to decorate...... Tong's mother was cleaning up the lady's warehouse, and seeing that this vase was beautiful and lightweight, Sister Caifu said that she would use this. In that room, Sister Caifu helped to add a few pots of begonias and narcissus, and the decoration was beautiful. ”
Liuxiang's face changed when she heard this.
Her thoughts were extremely confused for a while, and seeing that Yutong was still looking at herself with wide eyes, she asked her again: "Mother Tong is back?" "Sounds a bit murmuring.
Yutong nodded and said: "Mother Tong came back from Yizhulou, she was very happy, Miss asked Mother Tong to clean up the warehouse, and she worked very hard." ”
Liuxiang's face became even heavier, and she let the little girl go first, and she went back to the next room by herself.
The lower room is also regulated, the big girl is naturally a separate room, and the second-class and third-class maids are all two by two. This Qingpu is just about to come back, how can it be a single room. And the young lady also specially instructed Caifu to arrange, and even said what to put in first. Forget about these, this Tong's mother somehow came back from Yizhulou, and she is still in charge of her mother, so what should she do?
Tong's mother is gone, and there is no one in charge of this hospital, that is her biggest. Is Tong's mother back?
Liuxiang has an unprecedented sense of crisis.
……
Jin Chao went to accompany his mother again in the afternoon, and when he came back at dusk, the small kitchen prepared some light stews for her to eat, and rested early.
But she didn't sleep well that night, and it snowed again at night, and she heard the sound of snow crushing dead branches, and she heard the wind whining. There was no sleepiness in tossing and turning, but the quilt was too hot to cover my sweat. She looked at the top of the bed with her eyes open, and felt that she had a lot of things in her heart, and she had a lot of things that she should do, but these things were not in a hurry, and she had to do them slowly.
I barely fell asleep in the second half of the night, and dreamed that many years ago it was also a heavy snowfall, she stood alone on the verandah to watch the snow, and saw Chen Xuanqing taking Yu Wanxue to fold plums, and the plum blossoms with big nails were as clear as jade.
Yu Wanxue was supposed to be a woman in the backyard, but she took her skirt and folded the plum, Chen Xuanqing was careful that she fell, and looked at her below.
Yu Wanxue climbed the branches and asked him with a smile: "Xu Ruo, is this good-looking?" "The dignified and elegant person on weekdays is as lively as a child, with a smile on his face and a little expectation.
Chen Xuanqing smiled helplessly, and said perfunctorily: "It's all good-looking, it's all good-looking, you come down quickly, if you let the girl passing by see it, but you have to gossip." ”
Yu Wanxue said: "You look good, I will fold it down for you and put it in the study, the fragrance is the most elegant." ”
Yu Wanxue finally came down, Chen Xuanqing held her hand to warm her and said, "It's so cold, you still have to go ......"
But he carefully took the flower branch from her hand and helped her hold it, and the other hand led her back.
Her skirt was pale crimson, and through the hazy light of the snowy sky, Gu Jinchao's eyes were stinging.
There were many dreams and heavy nights, and Jin Chao did not sleep well.
It was a moment before the snow stopped, and it was still dark, but Jin Chao couldn't sleep, and through the curtain he saw that the room was still lit with two lanterns still lit. She got up and shouted: "Where is Liuxiang?" ”
It was Caifu who was on duty tonight, and she slept outside the screen, and woke up in a haze and began to button the coil on her padded jacket. "Miss woke up so early today, the slave maid will call Miss Liuxiang for you." The morning is still very quiet, Liuxiang has been tossing and turning and not sleeping well, hearing the faint voice of the young lady turned over and got up, she was fast with her hands and feet, three or two times on the clothes and used a copper basin to fetch water, steaming water.
Caifu saw Liuxiang stepping into the door, bent down and said, "Miss Liuxiang is so coincidental, Miss Liuxiang is calling you." ”
Liuxiang hummed and said lightly: "Help me carry the basin." ”
Cai Fu stretched out his hand to take the edge of the basin, but Liuxiang smiled: "What are you afraid of, and then here's it." ”
The bottom of the copper basin was scalded with hot water. You can feel the heat when you put your fingers next to the basin, and if you put it on the bottom of the basin, the skin on your hands will be burned off! Tsef's hand subconsciously shrank back.
Liuxiang smiled lightly and said, "If you delay Miss, you will have to bear it." ”
Liuxiang looked at her with a cold look in her eyes.
Cai Fu was silent for a while, of course she knew why Liuxiang treated her like this, and helped Qing Pu arrange the next room, and the young lady praised her for a few words of good work. Miss Liuxiang happened to hear it, and she was also present when she lost face in front of the young lady last time, and Liuxiang was afraid that she had already been thinking about her in her heart. If it's not, it's going to be something else...... Zefu bit her lip one last and reached for the copper basin.
Jin Chao suddenly heard a clang inside, and she could almost hear the sound of a copper basin falling to the ground. I couldn't help frowning, which maid is this, and she is still reckless in how to do things.
Ruka and Tsefu immediately came in and knelt in front of her bed. Caifu lowered her head and didn't look at her, Liuxiang kowtowed and said, "The slaves and maids disturbed Miss, and the slaves and maids asked Sister Caifu to carry the copper basin, but she just slipped her hand and didn't catch it for a while." Don't blame her. ”
Hand slippery? Jin Chao saw that Caifu lowered her head and didn't make a sound, so he asked her, "Is that really the case?" ”
Caifu was so aggrieved that her nose was sore, she didn't catch the hot copper basin at all, and the hot water splashed out of it still burned a few bubbles on the back of her hand. Where is Liuxiang's words to intercede for her, it is clear that the responsibility is quietly pushed on her. But Miss doesn't like others to blame each other the most, not to mention that the water sprinkled on the ground is already cold, and she can't argue.
She kowtowed and said calmly: "The slave admits her mistake, please punish the young lady." ”
Jin Chao could hear that there was something wrong with her voice and felt a little confused. Caifu has always been steady, why did she knock over the copper basin, and Liuxiang still rushed to put the responsibility on her?
She whispered, "Look up and I'll see." ”
Tsefudu was already crying, tears falling on the oakwood floor, but she still didn't look up. Jin Chao saw that her hands were red and blistered, but she was a little angry in her heart, but she didn't say anything, just said: "Forget it, it's just a trivial matter, since you are just unintentional, go down first." ”
The young lady did not punish her...... Tsefu thought that according to the young lady's temperament, she would probably go to the snow and kneel for a long time.
For a while, she felt that Miss was really good to her, and for a while, she felt that she had disappointed Miss. Thanking him palely, Caifu withdrew to clean up the water that had been sprinkled all over the ground, and Jin Chao continued to talk to Liuxiang: "Is Qingpu already here?" ”
Liuxiang watched Caifu withdraw from the curtain, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, Caifu really didn't dare to say it. Hearing Gu Jinchao ask her, she hurriedly replied: "I came here yesterday, and the slave maid took her to the outer courtyard to get two new clothes, and only packed up her things at night, and I didn't have time to say hello to the young lady for a while." ”
After listening to her words, Jin Chao thought for a while, and then said: "Mother Tong is back now, she is the mother in charge, you can help her manage the affairs of Qingtong Courtyard in the future." I've been cleaning out the warehouse recently, and you're more familiar with her than her, so I'll help you ......"
After Jin Chao finished speaking, he ordered her to go down first: "...... You go and fetch the green cattail. ”
