Chapter 62: Request for Instructions
Before breakfast, Hua Jin went to Luo's main room to say goodbye as usual.
After the little maid guarding the door went in and said, Yuqing opened the curtain and greeted her, "Fifth girl, go in, Madame is talking about you." ”
Hua Jin saw that the red lacquer tray in her hand was wrapped in the twig pattern, and what was left in the high cup was half a cup of bird's nest.
The absorption effect of eating bird's nest on an empty stomach in the morning is the best, but Roche can't even eat bird's nest?
Because he came a quarter of an hour early, when he entered the east room, only Luo was crooked on the big kang near the window, and Yuxi was serving beside him.
"Mother." Hua Jin smiled and stepped forward to salute, "How did my mother rest yesterday?" ”
Roche covered the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, revealing his signature loving smile, "Okay, very good." What about Jin'er? Just took over the housework, can you afford to eat? ”
Hua Jin showed a childlike innocent smile and nodded vigorously, "The child is very good." Mother, the child just needs to ask her mother for advice. ”
Ask?
Hearing these two words, Roche only felt a twitch in his heart.
Did she ask for instructions when she drove Du's mother out of the house in embarrassment?
Did she take Chen's mother back and ask for instructions?
She changed the head of the village on the Zhuangzi silently, and asked for instructions again?
Luo almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth, but still maintained a just right smile, "This child, what else do you say to ask for instructions or not, now that the mother is guilty, even if she has the heart, she will not dare to meddle in the affairs of our second room." Although he was talking and laughing, his hand hidden in the agarwood-colored embroidered Ruyi pattern sleeve jacket was tightly gripping the handkerchief, eager to crush something.
Hua Jin stepped forward and got closer to Roche, "Mother, the child will say something that you will benefit from." Without waiting for Roche to ask, he immediately said: "You just lost two big girls in the house, so the child will call two over." Without waiting for Luo to ask who it was, he said to himself, "One is Zhixiang in my house, and the other is Wenzhu in my brother's house." ”
Zhixiang? Wenzhu?
These two people that she personally planted in the house of Huachen Huajin brothers and sisters have now sent her back?
When Roche heard these two names, his fingers clutching the handkerchief tightened, and the nails of his middle finger made a crisp sound of "click" and broke.
The pain of the ten fingers connected to the heart made Roche's face twitch unconsciously, but he still covered his hands in his sleeves......
"Mother, are you not satisfied with these two people?" Without waiting for Luo to speak, "But this courtyard can't pick out a maid like Yuping and Yulu that suits your heart." The corners of his mouth showed a seemingly nonchalant smile, and in an instant, he looked very embarrassed, "Only the first-class maid in your house, the child really can't pick it out." ”
As soon as Luo Shi wanted to speak, a little maid guarding the door came in and said, "Second lady, the sixth girl has come to greet you, can you come in?" ”
Luo Shi held back his stomach, but listened to Hua Jindao: "Mother, the child let Zhixiang and Wenzhu who were waiting in the courtyard come in, so that he can serve his mother for breakfast." After speaking, he said to the little maid who had just entered the door: "Then let the sixth sister in, I am also going to my grandmother's place." After speaking, he didn't give Roche any chance to refute, and made an elegant farewell salute, "The child retired." He turned and walked out of the house.
Luo Shi looked at the back, and even ignored Yuqing and Yuxi's presence, and showed a cruel gaze.
Until the sixth girl Hua Rui came in, the viciousness in her eyes had not completely dissipated.
…………
Hua Jin felt that he had come out very early today, but when he arrived at Mrs. Tai's Chaohui Courtyard, the little maid guarding the door said that the eldest lady Wang was already in the house, and she came here alone.
Hua Jin was not surprised, and after the transmission, he entered the house with the white peach peach.
First of all, he gave a greeting to the two elders, and then stood in the center of the room obediently.
She doesn't speak, someone will naturally speak.
"Five girls, you just took over the housework of the second room, can you still afford it?" It was Mrs. Tai who asked with concern.
Hua Jin only smiled slightly, "Grandmother, the eldest aunt in the inner courtyard has always taken care of it well, and her granddaughter is also a good shade under the big tree, so she doesn't have to do anything?" ”
Mrs. Tai smiled, and the eldest lady Wang, who has always been unsmiling, couldn't help but smile a little: "When these five girls go out in the morning, they must have honey on their mouths, so that everyone who listens to her will be a little sweeter." After speaking, Feng changed again, "The fifth girl is also a lucky child, even if she encounters any thieves on the road, she can send them to the door to confess." ”
Mrs. Tai's eyes jumped, "Thief? ”
Hua Jin knew that the eldest lady would definitely take this matter out and talk about it, the purpose was to explain to Mrs. Tai that someone had come to the door, and it had nothing to do with her Wang family and her long room.
There really aren't that many big trees to lean on, but they are just sheltered from the wind and rain.
It's just that the eldest lady's temperament can really ensure that their long house is smooth and rainy?
Hua Jin couldn't help but think of the big brother and the woman he met on the street yesterday.
But at this time, he could only keep smiling and look at Mrs. Tai, "Grandmother, in fact, it is the fake tenant who met when my granddaughter and brother went to Zhuangzi and wanted to go with us. The purpose of the main messenger behind him is only to keep the position of the head of the village, and his granddaughter has already taken care of this matter. ”
Mrs. Tai bowed her head slightly, showing a pleased smile, "If there is such a family, then show your aunt, don't keep it anymore." ”
Although he knew that the eldest lady was clearly sitting back and ignoring her, Hua Jin still took out a roster from his sleeve and handed it to her, "Auntie, there has been some increase and decrease in the number of people in our Honghun Academy recently, but there has not been much change, this is the latest roster......"
"I didn't expect the five girls to be so meticulous." After speaking, he still took the roster, "If you need anything, just come to the eldest aunt." Without waiting for Hua Jin to say anything, the conversation turned to another topic, "It's almost the New Year, the flowers in the garden greenhouse are blooming just right, and the eldest aunt has asked people to find two rare butterfly species. In and out of the words, they are alluding to her young age and inadequacy.
Hua Jin only remained silent, stepped forward and blessed slightly, "Thank you aunt for your care." ”
gave Mrs. Tai a farewell salute again, and then left Chaohui Courtyard with Bai Tao and Zhi Tao again.
In the yard, the branches of the thick old locust tree were "creaked" by the wind, and it was the tree that wanted to be quiet and the wind did not stop.
Zhi Tao asked softly behind him, "Fifth girl, did you say that the eldest lady would be on our side?" ”
Hua Jin looked at the swaying branches, and his expression couldn't be calmer, "Big lady, she won't stand on either side." ”
