At this time, Liuli stood beside the flower stand and practiced her manners, watching her mouth foam flying, and suddenly she was splashed in the face by a drop of spittle, so she frowned and smacked. Before she put her hand down, the rattan swiped the ground and pulled it on her wrist!

Liuli jumped up in pain, Rui'er screamed and rushed over, "Mama Li, what are you doing?!" ”

"What for?" Mama Li asked rhetorically, and scolded Liuli: "I'm practicing the rules for you!" What do you mean by sitting or not sitting, standing or standing, dancing on the ground?! Dare to be affectionate and do you do the same in front of your ladies? Hit you to make you remember it for a long time! ”

Rui'er said angrily: "Don't forget your identity!" ”

Mama Li immediately whipped the table and said, "What is my identity, and what is your identity?!" Little, get out of here! ”

Rui'er stared at her with dead eyes, biting her lower lip and not moving.

Liuli covered the wound and said, "Rui'er go out first." ”

Rui'er glanced at her, stomped her foot at Mama Li with hatred, turned around and rushed out the door.

Ruri stepped forward and closed the door, turned around, walked to the embroidery shelf, tore a piece of cloth to wrap the wound, and returned to the shelf to stand still.

Mama Li suddenly jumped and stood up involuntarily. It stands to reason that this little girl has nothing to be afraid of, but now she can't see that she is angry at all from beginning to end, which makes her uneasy, and her eyes are fixed on her hands, for fear that she will lift up the pot of flowers and smash it over with a frantic hand!

But Liuli stood there, and didn't look at her again, but said calmly: "Let's come again." ”

After lunch, Liuli was walking under the porch, and Rui'er couldn't help but say: "This dominatrix is so hateful, now that the dog is fighting with people, even the girl dares to fight her, why should the girl put up with her!" ”

Liuli touched Mo Tuan'er's head. Nonchalantly: "What's the hurry?" You go and find out what she knows first, the better. ”

Rui'er answered the call and left.

The Red Sleeves affair had a wide impact, not only did the people in the house check it inside and out, but several people who were waiting around the young master also came to the big purge. The Yu family was busy with housework and filial piety in front of the old lady, so they seemed to have forgotten about the golden butterfly.

The old lady lay in bed for seven or eight days, and on this day, the saint suddenly sent his father-in-law to send a greeting and sympathetic will, and the old man held the yellow silk and cried for a long time. I was able to go to the ground in the next day.

The whole house was happy, He Lingwei entered the palace on behalf of the old lady on the same day, and when he came back, he was also happy, and the ladies congratulated him when they saw him, but they didn't know what it was.

Rui'er inquired about this, and it was the twenty-second day of the lunar month. At the same time, she also inquired about Mama Li's details. It turned out that Mama Li's maiden name was Qiao'er, and she was the daughter of the first aunt's grandmother, and she was a master who refused to suffer since she was a child. When He Duanyun got married, he was supposed to marry Qiao'er's sister. Who knew that he was suddenly infected with smallpox that year, and suddenly died, and the nurse refused to give up this opportunity, so she muttered in He Duanyun's ear all day to let Qiao'er go, He Duanyun was tame, and he couldn't grind her, so he allowed her.

Qiao'er went to the Guogong Mansion, and at first she was quite obedient, but as time went by, she gradually revealed her true nature. He Duanyun didn't dare to let her show her face and make a fool of herself, so he put her in the dowry shop for a few years. Qiao'er got married there and had children. But he quarreled with his in-laws all day long, so much so that the shopkeeper had to come forward to play a round.

At this time, He Duanyun was already sick, and a pair of children were not worried about others taking care of her, so they recruited her to come back to wait. He Duanyun passed away in less than two years, and Qiao'er regarded herself as the protector of the little prince and the little master, and cried at every turn about how unfortunate the first aunt and grandmother were. The eldest aunt Liu Shenfeng respects his deceased wife. often didn't care about it, but later he couldn't help it, and scolded her away from his children, until He Fu actually remembered such a person and took her back.

Rui'er finally said: "She is now an old prank, she drills when she sees a crack, and quarrels with her daughter-in-law every day at home, the old man died the year before last, and her son kicked her out, saying that with her, he will die twenty years early!" The old lady put this misfortune here, and she dared to break our Yangshou! ”

"How can it be that serious?" Ruri smiled and said, "It won't take long." ”

After breakfast that day, Mama Li began to "teach" Liuli how to serve tea, and sat on top with a rattan in her hand, and asked Liuli to respect her. Rui'er took a small stove to boil water beside her, and secretly glared at her eight hundred times.

Liuli still didn't say a word.

After a while, the water boiled, Rui'er made tea, Liuli picked it up, and offered it with both hands: "Mama, please drink tea." ”

Mama Li said: "It's so hot, how can you drink it?" ”

Rui'er glanced at her. Liuli didn't speak, opened the lid and spread it aside, turned her head and asked Rui'er to make another seven or eight bowls on the side. Mama Li stared at her with squinted eyes, and her chin was almost tilted to the sky.

Liuli warmed the bowl of tea to just right and then served it: "Mama, please." ”

"Get on your knees!"

Liuli raised her head, and Mama Li accentuated her voice: "I'll let you kneel!" ”

Rui'er was about to have a seizure, but Liuli stopped her and looked at Mama Li: "Really? ”

Mama Li jumped up and her eyes bulged: "Don't you really think you're joking with me?!" ”

Liuli looked at her for a moment, and nodded slowly, "Okay, it's good if you don't regret it." ”

"I regret it?!" Mama Li pointed to her nose, "Joke! I have nothing to regret! - Hurry up and get down on your knees, and don't rub over there! ”

Liuli ordered Rui'er to bring the tea, knelt down, and took it with both hands before serving it. Mama Li snorted and took two sips, and slammed the cup onto the table: "Take the tea leaves in your cupboard." ”

"Mama Li! Don't forget who you are! Rui'er put down the tray heavily, and couldn't hold it back: "No matter how bad our girl is, she is still the master, and you are just a minion-"

"Rui'er, go get the tea."

Ruri twisted her hair and spoke, choking the words behind her in her throat. Mama Li raised the rattan and threw it on the table, Rui'er gritted her teeth and went to the house.

Liuli knelt on the ground, still didn't get up, looked at Mama Li, and said, "Mama is so majestic." ”

Mama Li snorted coldly and looked at her: "I know you hate me, but you can't complain about me!" This is the order given by the eldest lady, the ancestor worship on Chinese New Year's Eve is imminent, not to mention others, the county lord of Chunyang County, the eldest aunt and grandmother and the people of Xihe Mansion are coming over, the lady is willing to take you in that for the sake of the eldest lord's face, if you make a mistake in this matter and let the eldest lady lose face in front of the mansions, then it is not a matter of beating a dozen! ”

Rui'er had already taken back the tea and re-brewed it, Liuli picked up a bowl and said to herself: "It turns out that there is also an item of taking private tea out to entertain guests in the rules of ancestor worship. After speaking, he smiled again: "Mama, please!" ”

Mama Li took it and was about to drink, when someone suddenly said outside the door: "Yo! Where is this man? ”

Liuli heard that Qian Changsheng's family was coming, and she was busy giving Rui'er a look. Mama Li saw Rui'er go out, and she got up in a hurry, but Liuli didn't move, but knelt more steadily.

"Yo, what's going on?"

Mrs. Qian entered the door and saw Liuli kneeling in the center of the ground, so she said to Mama Li, who was standing on the top and stunned.

Liuli turned around and said, "Big lady, I'm kneeling down to serve tea to my grandmother, please forgive me for not being able to get up and entertain." ”

Mrs. Qian glanced at Mama Li and said, "What did Mama say?" Where in the world is there a reason for the master to kneel to the slave? ”

Mama Li was busy pulling the glass, but she didn't move at all, so she pulled the lady Qian and argued: "The eldest lady has wronged me, I am being ordered by the eldest lady to train the etiquette rules of the nine girls, but I don't dare to commit it!" ”

Mrs. Qian said: "It turned out to be for this." But no matter what, a girl is a girl, even when you salute, you should be biased, where is there a swaggering sitting and receiving the salute? ”

Mama Li laughed and said, "How can it? Isn't this just a demonstration? ”

Rui'er was about to interject again behind Mrs. Qian, but was glared at by Liuli.

Mrs. Qian said: "Since that's the case, forget it." - Double Happiness, Laurel, Begonia, the three of you come in and help the girl get up! ”

After that, three girls came in from outside the door. Liuli didn't know that there was anyone outside the door, but fortunately, Rui'er was clever and helped her up before the three of them entered the door.

Liuli received a bow from these three maids, and immediately understood that this was a newcomer to her room, and immediately looked at it, two coarse cloth clothes, one with one-word eyebrows, a round face with jujube eyes, and a light-eyed cherry mouth, all of them looked simple, but there were rules, but the eyes were staring at the toes, and they were still a little restrained. The other was dressed in goose yellow clothes, slightly older than them, fourteen or fifteen years old, and his eyes were obviously much more sophisticated. But those two seem to be very in line with Liuli's intentions, what she needs now is an honest person, and the loyalty of an honest person is the easiest to cultivate. At this time, she couldn't help but sigh that Red Sleeves was really a good talent, and she knew that if she found such a safe person, if she picked two clever ones, she wouldn't dare to ask for them, and the Yu family would never give them.

However, this matter still needs to be confirmed with Red Sleeves before it can be done accurately.

"How do the nine girls look at these girls?"

Mrs. Qian looked at Liuli with a smile. Liuli looked back at her, and saw that she was dressed lightly today, and the pomp was no longer grand, and she knew that she came directly from the long room, so she said: "I look very good, but every time I think of my wife's daily affairs, I have to take the time to worry about my affairs, and I am really uneasy." ”

Mrs. Qian said: "The eldest lady is a famous virtuous lady, and we are so envious of the girl's kindness in private!" If only the girl knew. - Laurel and Begonia, these two girls are new to the house, and you have to take a little bit of double happiness. ”

The yellow-dressed maid called Double Happiness bent down and said yes.

Liuli heard that this meant that Shuangxi was one level higher than the other two, thinking that it was to replace the original Cui Ying's position, and Rui'er was also third-class, that is, she was on the same level as those two.

Mrs. Qian drank a bowl of tea, and after giving some instructions, she left, and Mama Li sent her directly to the three doors.
