In the courtyard of the Wu family, the atmosphere is very weird.

Ming Fei still occupies Yan'er's room, Jiao Tao still boils medicine and embroiders, takes care of Ming Fei's daily life, tells Ming Fei about the big and small things of the Cai family in her spare time, teaches some rules and etiquette and ways to maintain her skin, and wants to wipe out the ugly and rough marks on Ming Fei's hands, and try her best to distance herself from the ladies in the house.

Yu Pozi and Jiao Xing left Yu Wei is still there, and the Wu family almost responds to the needs of the master and servant, but on weekdays, except for the cook who will take the initiative to talk to the two, the others basically ignore the freshly baked master and servant.

After a few days of peace, on the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, Wang finally received a reply from his second aunt. The person who came asked her to endure and wait patiently for the time being, and stuffed her with twenty taels of silver and two pieces of silk cloth to make hush money and New Year's money, and also gave Yan'er, who was about to get married, a pair of silver chuan to add makeup.

made a small fortune, and the Wu family was overjoyed. Wang Shi thought about it, the second aunt is still as generous as ever, and she is still as favored as before, and the new lady is only a few days strong because of the power of her mother's family and the freshness that has just passed the door, and she will definitely not grow in the future.

A father and mother, just a stepdaughter who is not welcomed, who will have a big heart? The new lady helped Ming Fei at this time, probably because she had just entered the door and wanted to win people's hearts and win a good name, or she wanted to use Ming Fei's incident to pull the second aunt off the horse.

Otherwise, it's obviously like this, why didn't the Cai family arrange another place for Ming Fei? It can be seen that Ming Fei is just a person who picks up when he is useful and discards when he is useless. A person like her, who will be in the sky in the future, will only marry a small family, how much profit will she have?

If you want to come here for a while, once the new lady is stumped by the things in the backyard, she has no intention of standing up for Ming Fei again, and maybe she will think that it is because of Ming Fei that she is unlucky. At that time, Ming Fei, who is disliked by everyone, didn't let her own knead round and flattened?

Thinking about it this way, from that day on, Wang and Yan'er scolded Huai in the courtyard, beating gongs and drums, just wanting to get the evil breath in their hearts out. A few days ago, she was really driven crazy by Yu Pozi and others. Thinking that in the past, she asked Ming Fei to go east, Ming Fei didn't dare to go west, let Ming Fei run, Ming Fei didn't dare to go, and now Ming Fei actually has someone to serve, and she dared to let her kneel and cry, it's really unforgivable.

Faced with this situation, Jiao Tao was afraid that Ming Fei would be sad and wanted to relieve her, but she saw that Ming Fei was indifferent and looked indifferent. Although he felt strange, he still said: "Third Miss, don't worry about them, one day, you will have to go back." The eldest prince said that he would never let his sister be left out and suffer hardships, and when that day came, you could get angry as much as you wanted. ”

Ming Fei said lightly: "I've long been used to it. What is this compared to the past? The scolding is just like the wind blowing, and even if it blows, they don't dare to kick us out, and they don't dare to starve us. She was calm on the surface, but she was very anxious in her heart, and she didn't know which direction things would go after Mrs. Yu went back? Looking at Wang's attitude, it seems that it is not good.

She didn't tell anyone about asking Daoist Song and Qingxu to help with the fraud, not even Prince Cai. Because she subconsciously thinks that the ancients believed in fate, even if Cai Dagongzi took care of her in terms of brotherhood and felt sorry for her, if he also thought in his heart that she was a person with a bad fate and would bring bad luck to the family, he would also have a grudge against her. If I knew that she had lied, I would have hated her very much.

What Ming Fei is most afraid of is that the Chen family will ask Mrs. Yu to find another person to tell fortunes and ask for a lot, and get a completely different result. But this is beyond her control with her current ability and cannot be changed. She can only hope to make a fuss about Daoist Song's sentence "She was forcibly changed by someone, so she was born prematurely". After thinking about it for a long time, he wrote a note for Ash to send to Daoist Song. She thought to herself, this fellow person, maybe all have something to do with it, just hit the luck.

After the note was sent out, Daoist Song didn't reply, and Ming Fei had no choice but to sit and wait. I heard that the second lady of the Cai family, Mingya, is going to get married after the beginning of spring, if there is no movement in the family by then, and she refuses to send someone to take care of her, or let her go back to play or something, it means that she is defeated, and the future will definitely become more and more sad.

Ming Fei thought about it for a long time, and suddenly thought that the worst result would be to return to the old situation - the Cai family didn't care about her, and the Wu family wanted to harm her with the second aunt. I really couldn't get by, so I fled. So she calmed down again.

The weather in winter is unpredictable, one moment it is blue and white clouds, the sun is shining, and the next moment the north wind blows, and the clouds are thick, and snow particles the size of sorghum rice are falling down. Ming Fei's room became more and more cold, the charcoal basin had long been extinguished, and the exhaled breath condensed into a thin layer of water vapor on the quilt, damp and cold, and the five points of chill turned into seven points.

Jiao Tao's hands were frozen and she couldn't do needlework, so she got up and looked at the sky, and said, "It's changed, and the charcoal has run out, so the slave and maid go and ask for charcoal." ”

"She didn't know how many nasty things to say." Ming Fei squeezed into the bed: "Or, come up first, let's cover it, and talk about it tomorrow?" In fact, she has another way, that is, to ask someone to buy charcoal, so that she will no longer be angry with Wang, but she thinks that first, she still owes fifty taels of silver for her hard work and hush money; Second, the Wu family received the Cai family's silver taels, which should have been used by her, but if she opened this head, it would be even more difficult to speak in the future.

But I heard Jiao Tao Zhengse say: "Sooner or later, you will have to suffer these few scoldings, and it will be okay on weekdays, but you are still recuperating from your injuries and can't freeze." If we take a step back, she will go further, and she will not let go. After that, he went to find Wang on his own.

Ming Fei was only afraid that Jiao Tao was not really willing to help herself, so it was not good for her to be scolded by the Wang family. Since Jiao Tao was willing to take the initiative to stand up for herself, Ming Fei didn't stop her, and took the needlework basket to see that the garnet-red belly pocket was about to end, and every stitch and thread was extremely serious. Jiao Tao's craftsmanship is really good, and the person is not bad, but it's a pity that it's not her person. I still can't find someone I can rely on wholeheartedly.

But said that Jiao Tao went to the main house to find Wang's, and Wang's family was roasting chestnuts around a pot of red-burning charcoal and roasting sweet potatoes to eat. You say a word, I say a word, saying that the parents are short and happy. Yan'er also held Wang's hand, and coquettishly wanted to make new clothes.

Wang said: "You are going to get married at twenty-three, and you have made four clothes in each of the four seasons alone, you go and ask, which family around you has more clothes for your daughter?" Still want to do it? Leave a little for your brother and sister. ”

Yan'er pouted, rubbed the blood mark on her neck and snorted: "Mother, it's twelve, look at my wound, it won't get better." What should I do then? ”

Wang Shi poked her forehead vigorously: "Who told you to break that stinky girl's medicine jar?" Do you know how many pots and pans of furniture are lost in the kitchen? How much money did the old lady lose for medicine? It's all your fault! It also embarrassed the old lady and begged for that broom star! ”

Yan'er said: "Do you want me to bear my breath and bully that fox spirit?" But she saw Fang'er stand up, looked at the door and said, "Sister Jiaotao, are you in trouble?" ”

Jiao Tao was blessed and said with a smile: "The master of the Wu family is good, the grandmother is good, the eldest son is good, the two young ladies are good, and the slave maid is here to receive the charcoal in my young lady's room." ”

Wang's face changed, pretending not to hear, Mrs. Yu was not there, she was not afraid of this girl who didn't talk much, and looked gentle. This girl was left here, but I am afraid that she will not be liked by the master in the house, so what should she do? These many troubles are caused by Ming Fei's broom star, if there is no Ming Fei, where would it be so annoying?

Yan'er sarcastically said: "We are in the countryside here, not as good as the house." Everyone in the family only bakes one pot, but she has to bake a pot by herself every day. This year's snow is heavy, and this charcoal is expensive, even if you hold silver, you may not be able to buy it. ”

Jiao Tao's face remained unchanged, and she said, "No matter how expensive it is, the fifty taels of silver that our lady sent last time are enough for my young lady to eat and drink with charcoal." As for whether there is one, it will not be useful in the house, and it will be gone to my young lady's place, right? ”

Yan'er's eyes widened, and she was about to have a seizure, but Fang'er had already gotten up and said, "She's still sick, it's going to be the New Year......"

Wang was furious, slapped Fang'er on the back, and scolded: "Eat the white-eyed wolf inside and outside!" Do you want me to stop eating or drinking as a whole family? In the past few days, when you are more relaxed, you will kick your nose in the face, and you will really think that you are some kind of golden branch and jade leaf. Phew! ”

Fang'er red-eyed and silently went to the back room.
