Sigh on a moonlit night, Hu does not return Chapter 71 Crying poor in front of people, showdown
Lord Yin Shao of Shuntian Mansion and the Li family went to the village outside the city together.
Lord Shao's subordinates explained their intentions to Mama Mi, saying that they had come to investigate the rice grain case.
Mama Mi took everyone to the living room and ordered the little maid to serve tea.
Master Shao picked up the tea, glanced at the cup, and was surprised to find that it was not a tea leaf, but a bitter gourd cut into slices.
"It's ......"
Mi Mama looked embarrassed, and said: "Let the adults see the joke, this village lacks the east and the west, and the tea leaves are only a little green tea, this is the bitter gourd planted by the farmers in the open space of the back mountain, my lady asked the melon to go inside, put those green tea into it, cut off a few pieces when entertaining guests, brew it with boiling water, drink it to clear the heat and relieve the heat, and get rid of thirst and irritability......"
Lord Shao couldn't help but nod his head again and again when he heard this, "The third young lady is very smart, it's really hard for her......"
The eldest lady Li sat on the side, but she gritted her teeth when she listened, the tea was bitter in her mouth, and her heart couldn't help but become more and more irritated.
Mama Mi turned her head and smiled at the eldest lady: "My young lady has ordered, this tea is the most suitable for the eldest lady to drink, let the old slave persuade the lady to drink more." ”
Li almost crushed the teacup with hatred.
Everyone drank tea, but they didn't see Ye Zhiwei come out, Li said impatiently: "Even if you live in the village, there are no elders here, and the third lady should know some etiquette, how can you be so slow to lazy guests?" The implication is that Ye Zhiwei didn't take this Shuntianfu Yin in her eyes.
The eldest lady said, glancing at Lord Shao out of the corner of her eye, but Lord Shao was leisurely eating tea and playing with the coarse tea cup in her hand, as if this object was so rare, and she didn't notice what she just said.
Mama Mi was not in a hurry, "If you go back to Mrs., it will be inconvenient for the third lady to meet the guests, so please bring it with you." ”
"Inconvenient to meet guests?" The eldest lady raised her eyebrows, "Aren't you doing something shady?" ”
Mama Mi was not annoyed, laughed with her, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Look at what you said, Madame, the third lady is just a child, and she will be bathing, but it happens that you came over at this time......"
When Lord Shao heard this, he hurriedly said: "It's us who came in a hurry, don't do your young lady's business, let her not be in a hurry, we'll wait." ”
Mama Mi immediately called two maids and brought a plate of candied fruit made of wild fruits, when did Lord Shao and others eat this kind of thing, all of them were curious and pinched one of them, and they only felt sweet and sour and refreshing when they ate it in their mouths, and they all praised the third lady for her ingenuity.
These words were like poison in the ears of the eldest lady, and they made her fidget.
She stood up abruptly and said, "Where is the third lady now, I haven't seen her for a long time as an aunt, but I think about it tightly, take me to see it, so as to urge her to hurry up, don't let these adults wait here." ”
"Madame, please." To her surprise, Mama Mi did not refuse her proposal, but took her out of the living room directly and to the side courtyard at the back.
Picking up the curtain, the room exuded a strong fragrance of osmanthus flowers, and a few little maids with quick hands and feet were busy adding water from time to time and handing things in.
When the eldest lady entered the house, they were still busy with their own work, as if they hadn't seen it, and they were still in order.
The eldest lady stood in place for a while, and no one greeted her, she felt a little embarrassed, but turned around and found that Mama Mi had left at some point.
After standing for a while, I saw the curtain in the inner room open, and Xiaolian came out of it.
The eldest lady recognized her as Ye Zhiwei's side, and hurriedly said, "Where is your young lady?" ”
Xiaolian's complexion is much better than when she was in the Zhenguo Mansion, her little face is flushed, and her body is also rounded, not at all like in the past, she blinked and looked at the eldest lady, "Miss is taking a bath." ”
One sentence choked the eldest lady.
Isn't that nonsense!
She was about to have a seizure when she suddenly heard Ye Zhiwei's voice from the house, "Is it the eldest aunt, let her in." ”
"Yes." Xiaolian answered, picked up the curtain and looked at the eldest lady, "Please." ”
The eldest lady snorted coldly and stepped into the door.
The room was filled with the aroma of soap beans, mixed with a faint scent of osmanthus flowers, floating in the air.
Ye Zhiwei only wore a plain gauze dress, crooked on the beauty couch, and fresh grapes were placed on the low table next to her, and the fruits were full, like purple crystals.
The eldest lady only felt that the green tendons in her temples kept jumping.
There are no grapes in this season, even if you have money, there is nowhere to buy them, this girl cries poverty everywhere in front of outsiders, but she didn't expect to be so extravagant behind her back.
"Auntie should come and try it too, this is a good thing, ordinary people can't eat it in this season." Ye Zhiwei had just taken a bath, her little face was like a ripe apple, ruddy and moving, her dark eyes were wet, and she looked very cute.
The eldest lady sneered: "Don't think I don't know the good things you did, those rice grains were what you wanted to collect in the first place, right?" ”
"Yes and what." Ye Zhiwei picked a grape and threw it into her mouth.
"Do you know that my brother had an accident because of this batch of rice grain, and now Shuntian Mansion Yin has begun to investigate the matter?"
Ye Zhiwei chuckled silently, "Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, God will never see the wrong villain, is this retribution...... It's time to come. ”
The eldest lady shuddered.
For some reason, suddenly, she felt that the third lady in front of her had become unfamiliar.
Is she still the cowardly and cowardly daughter of the Min family? If she used to be low and small in front of her, like a pebble, now she is like a polished gem, shining brightly...... Gradually out of his control.
"Do you mean...... What the hell are you doing behind this? The terrible thought suddenly passed through her eyes.
There was a sudden silence in the room.
Ye Zhiwei sat up straight from the beauty couch, her thin fingers raised slightly...... The two maids standing behind her immediately hung their heads and quietly withdrew.
The eldest lady glared, what she said just now was just her guess, and she said it on the spur of the moment, but now that she felt this strange atmosphere, she suddenly became a little afraid.
Isn't it, could it be that she really did this kind of thing?
With just one of her little orphans, can she pit her brother into it?
The eldest lady's gaze fell again on the plate of grapes on the low table.
Wrong! In this season, this kind of thing can only be eaten in the palace.
Ye Zhiwei seemed to see what she was thinking, and said lightly: "Auntie really doesn't want to taste it, this is sent from the south by eight hundred miles in an expeditious manner, and it is very rare." ”
Sure enough, it's in the palace!
The eldest lady's heart was pounding, and she couldn't figure out when this girl had a relationship with the palace.
"That batch of rice grain has been collected by me." Ye Zhiwei's voice sounded word by word, like a call to her from hell, "I don't know what rice grain your brother collects......
