Chapter Seventy-One: Hints
Hua Hui didn't say anything, and quietly followed behind Qiu Yu some distance behind.
The autumn rain went out of the inner courtyard and went straight to the small courtyard of the guest house in the outer courtyard.
The personal maid who has been with her since she was a child is actually connected with her stepmother and husband?
No wonder Zhao Xinneng and Luo reached some tacit understanding behind her.
Her tolerance for servants, her repeated tolerance for her husband's family, and her efforts to please Luo in front of her only hope that she would be kind to her sister.
But in the end, it all turned into a joke.
Hua Hui only felt that something in her heart was collapsing little by little......
Hua Hui burst into tears...... Tears of grievance, tears of sadness, tears of confusion.
Walking back to Hongxun Courtyard was like a world away, Hua Hui stood in the middle of the courtyard, looking at the lights on the side of Hua Jin in the east wing and muttered, "You must be strong, so that you can protect your sister." ”
…………
Hua Jin had dinner, but he didn't see Bai Tao come back.
It was rude to go to the eldest aunt's side late, Hua Jin didn't dare to delay, so she asked Lingxiang to gargle her mouth and put on a cloak.
At this time, Bai Tao opened the curtain and came in, with anxiety on her face, "Five girls......"
Hua Jin frowned slightly, "The handkerchief was not found?" ”
Bai Tao nodded and looked at Hua Jin apologetically, "Fifth girl, the slave is afraid that you will delay going to the eldest lady, so come back first." Let's go again......"
"No need." Hua Jin stopped Bai Tao, who had turned around and was about to go out.
"Since you've looked for it along the way back, you must have been picked up."
"But the handkerchief is embroidered with the girl's name, if it is ......"
Yes, the handkerchief was embroidered with a brocade character.
She knew what was at stake.
Hua Jin still smiled and comforted Bai Tao, "If someone picks it up, it will naturally be sent back." "But if someone with a heart picks her up and calculates her, then she can only wait to see the move.
Bai Tao nodded, but he was still a little uneasy.
Hua Jin just quietly went out with Lingxiang.
The Yun Yuxuan of the long house is located on the southeast side of the Zhangfu, and the Hongxun Courtyard where Hua Jin lives is just on the diagonal of the Zhangfu mansion, and the distance is much farther than going to Mrs. Tai.
At this moment, it was the weather with the northwest wind rolling up the smoke and snow, so Hua Jin quickened his steps and walked to the door of Yun Yuxuan, but he almost collided with the person who came out of it.
"Big brother." When he saw the person on the other side clearly, Hua Jin was slightly blessed.
"It's the fifth sister, my mother is waiting for you in the room!" Hua Kun's eyes were smiling, still as warm as jade.
Hua Jin remembered the picture of bumping into him and the woman at the entrance of the alley that day, and saw that he was only followed by the little guy he trusted the most, and couldn't help asking: "Big brother, have you been going out a lot lately?" ”
Hua Kun raised his eyebrows, looked at the fifth sister who had not dealt much with him before, and said tentatively: "How does the fifth sister know that I often go out?" ”
Hua Jin smiled slightly and looked at Hua Kun, "The fifth sister doesn't know, she just asked by chance." ”
By chance?
What is she prompting herself?
How much did she know?
Hua Kun looked at Hua Jin and saw a look of understanding everything and a look full of kindness.
Hua Kun's heart tightened and loosened slightly, and his tone was slightly picky, "Fifth sister cares about me very much?" ”
"Since it's a family, how can there be a reason not to care." looked at Hua Kun with deep meaning, "What's more, the eldest brother has always been a good brother with responsibility and responsibility, and the fifth sister has no reason to ignore it." ”
Hearing the words responsibility and responsibility, Hua Kun's eyes flashed slightly, and he secretly lowered his head, "Thank you for the praise of the fifth sister, it's just that the eldest brother hasn't done as well as the sister said." ”
Hua Jin shook the snow covered by his white light hand, "Fifth sister believes that the eldest brother will definitely do it." Seeing the eldest brother's love for the woman, and seeing his somewhat guilty expression at this time, Hua Jin knew that the eldest brother was not such a person with game feelings, but there was something unspeakable.
Hua Kun nodded, "It's cold outside, fifth sister should hurry up and enter the house." ”
Hua Jin bowed, "Big brother, then my sister will go in." ”
Hua Kun looked at the back that looked very delicate even if she was wearing a thick cloak, and couldn't help murmuring: "When did my fifth sister become so clever and understanding people's hearts?" ”
But Hansha, the little girl beside Hua Kun, was a little anxious, "Shizi, did you say that these five girls know about Miss Yun?" ”
Hua Kun turned around and sighed lightly, "Paper can't contain fire after all." The important thing is not whether the fifth sister knows, but ......" He glanced up at Tao Yuxuan's main room with the lights on, and there was already the sound of the little maid guarding the door inviting Hua Jin into the house.
"The fifth girl won't tell Madame about Miss Yun, right?"
Hua Kun shook his head, "If she wanted to say it, she wouldn't have hinted at me so seriously." ”
Hansha nodded reassuringly, "Those five girls are really good people." ”
…………
Entering the main room of Tao Yuxuan, the eldest lady Wang was sitting on the big kang near the window drinking tea, serving her personal maid Xiangfei, and the housekeeper in Wang's room, Mother Sun, was reporting some arrangements for tomorrow's sacrifice to the stove king.
Seeing her enter the house, Wang hurriedly beckoned, "Five girls, quickly pat the snow on your shoulders to warm up on the kang." ”
Hua Jin walked slowly to the side of the kang and saluted the Wang family respectfully, "Auntie." ”
Mother Sun is a thin woman, and at this time, she also stepped forward to greet Hua Jin with a crooked smile in her eyebrows, "The five girls are really polite!" After speaking, he personally stepped forward to help Hua Jin take off his cloak and hand it to Ling Xiang's hand, "Madame is waiting for you, the fifth girl." ”
"I made the eldest aunt wait for a long time, but the eldest aunt has thought about what to tell Huajin to do?"
Wang pointed to the edge of the kang again, "The five girls sit down and talk." ”
Hua Jin bowed slightly, walked to the other side of the kang table and sat down, but his eyes fell on the four red sandalwood kang screens embroidered with the pattern of a hundred birds and a phoenix.
Wang's gaze also followed, "This kang screen is a treasure of the previous dynasty, and it is really a waste to put it in the mundane house of your eldest aunt." ”
Hua Jin smiled slightly, "A hundred birds are facing a phoenix, and a hundred birds are attached to a phoenix, this kang screen is really the most suitable for placing in Tao Yuxuan's main room." ”
Wang's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but think of his own situation, no matter how many women there were outside and how many aunts there were at home, she was the only one who was the main master, Wang Junhui.
Thinking of this, looking at Hua Jin's eyes again, there was a bit of a smile and a cordiality that had never been before.
When Hua Jin saw that the goal was achieved, he lowered his eyelids slightly.
She has no intention of clinging to Nagafang, she doesn't want to fight for Nagafang to become an ally, but she doesn't want Nagafang to become an ally of the enemy, so that's fine.
Wang took a few menus for the New Year's family banquet in Fuzhong a few years ago and discussed it with Hua Jin.
Most of the time, Hua Jin will follow Wang's wishes, and occasionally put forward his own suggestions when they are inconsequential, which is both deferential and not unassertive.
