After the meal, Su Su sent Zhao's mother out of the garden and gave her a purse: "Last time, my mother said that Sister Qiuyun had a body, presumably now my little niece and niece are also two years old, this is given to the child by Su Su, and my mother must not refuse." ”

Qiuyun is the only daughter of Zhao's mother and recruited a son-in-law. Zhao's mother took it and said, "Mom will accept it on behalf of your sister Qiuyun and little nephew, and when you enter Beijing in the future, I will ask your nephew to give you tea." Then he said: "Susu, my mother's too frequent arrival is also suspicious, so this is the last time I came to Yangzhou." You are a smart person, and the old lady loves you so much, and the future will definitely get better and better. Mom just wants you to be careful. ”

Su Su touched the paper ball in his belt: "Su Su has taken care of her mother for many years, and when there is a chance in the future, Su Su will definitely come to the capital to see you." If it weren't for her, Mother Zhao's mother would not be able to keep busy in the capital, how could she go south three times in five years, this kindness Su Su has always remembered.

Sending Zhao's mother away, Su Su went back to the warehouse, and Yang Liu also came to the warehouse to receive the share with the four little girls who had just made up the rough example.

These little girls are not as lucky as Su Su back then, and they are third-class when they enter the house, but the old lady is kind-hearted, and the rough maid who just came in will give a hundred dollars of pocket money first, and there is still half a month before the end of the month, and then she will receive the monthly money for the whole month.

"Why did you bring them over yourself?" Su Su was sorting out the newly gifted gadgets from a jewelry shop under the old lady's name.

Yang Liu said: "The old lady is taking a nap, Ning Cui Bisi is here, and I have nothing to do, so I brought them over." ”

Each of the rough maids also had three sets of clothes in a season, shoes and socks inside and out, and there was also a boxwood jewelry box with two silk flowers, four head ropes, a small comb, and a hundred coins.

The big jewelry box that Su Su was packing was full of gold, silver, pearls and jade, and when she made a mistake, she asked the four little girls to look at it, and they all took a breath of cool air.

The little maid in Yang Liu is called Xingxiao, and the family originally had some family business, but unfortunately her mother remarried after her father died of illness, and her younger brother was taken in by her uncle. Seeing these things, Xingxiao first glanced at Su Su, and then at the others before lowering his head.

Mama Qin picked two of them, one is called Xiya and the other is called Xiaohua, she won't blink when she sees these eyes, and she stares at them deadly.

And the little girl who was sold by her stepmother had a nice name, called Wutong, and she took a breath after taking a look, but immediately lowered her head.

Later, Su Su asked Wutong why he immediately lowered his head when he saw those gold and silver jewelry when he entered the mansion on the first day? Wutong's answer was: "Gold, silver and jewelry are liked by everyone, but my mother told me that you can't take anything that is not your own, no matter how much you like it, if you can't suppress greed, then don't look, don't listen, don't think."

Su Su was silent for a while before saying, "You have a good mother!"

And now Su Su just glanced at them and closed the box, then found another smaller box and said, "There are too many things, I have mixed them up, this is it!" Saying that, he opened the box, and there were some silver closes, silver earrings, small rings and the like, and after giving each of them a pair of earrings and a ring, he said: "The girl we went out with Antang, even if it is a rough one, we can't lose face, and you will be on an errand in the future, and these things will not be stingy even if the old lady is even better."

Xingxiao took it quietly, Chunya and Xiaohua couldn't hide their disappointment, and Wutong showed a happy smile. After Yang Liu sent someone to take the four little girls out to settle down, he said: "Mama Qin likes some lively and clever little girls when she is old, but these two eyelids are too shallow; Xingxiao looks steady, but there are too many eyes; On the contrary, the sycamore can be cultivated at a glance. Pick and choose, your eyes are getting sharper and sharper! ”

Su Su smiled and said nothing, she didn't live in vain in her previous life, compared with these women in the deep mansion compound, she can be regarded as having seen the world!

After returning to the house in the evening, Su Su sat on the couch by the window after washing up as usual, and then took out the paper ball given by Zhao's mother from his belt and unfolded it to take a look, but a few words made Su Su cry like rain, "Hami Guard, military household, Tatar." ”

The territory of Chu is vast, comparable to that of the Ming Dynasty, the economy is prosperous and the commerce is developed, and the maritime Silk Road on the road attracts merchants from all over the world. Some small countries naturally did not dare to offend the Chu State, but the war in the northern Xinjiang has been continuous, because of the existence of the Tatars and Warats, these two tribes are nomadic and cannot be educated, so the Chu State has set up guards in various parts of the frontier, a large number of soldiers, and most of the exiled criminals are conscripted into the army, and they have been reduced to military households for generations.

Four years ago, when Zhao's mother went to Jiangnan again, Su Su asked her to find the news of her brother, but although Zhao's mother went in and out of the major powerful families in the capital, she was just a tooth woman, and now she can get these news, and I don't know how much risk Zhao's mother took to find out.

The elder brother Nguyen Liulang was in the Hami Guard in the northwest, and he was a military household and faced the Tatar barbarians. Thinking of the little boy who was praised by Mr. for his conduct and literary talents, he was likely to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, Su Su's heart was about to gather together, but there was a hint of joy, at least his brother was still alive.

"Hami Guard", Su Su muttered these four words, and an idea suddenly sprouted in her heart, when the old lady gave her a naturalization and let her out of the house, she would go to the northwest to find her brother.

Su Su didn't know when she fell asleep, anyway, when she woke up, it was already the next night, during which she felt in a daze that someone wiped her body and fed her medicine, and she was weak, knowing that she was probably sick, and then fell asleep again.

Now when I woke up, I saw Yang Liu and Bi Si dozing off on the side of the bed, and the room was full of the smell of wine and medicine, I guessed that I had a fever, and my stomach "growled" a few times, and I didn't know what time it was.

As soon as Su Su wanted to get up, Yang Liu and Bisi, who felt the movement, opened their eyes, and Bisi first touched Su Su's forehead with her hand, and said with relief: "It's not burning!" Yang Liu also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said angrily: "My aunt, you are awake." Then he pointed at the tip of Su Su's nose and scolded: "On weekdays, I say that you are very thoughtful, if you say something, we can't help it, can't you ask the old lady?" This time it's okay, the body that has finally been raised, and a worry is even beaten back to its original shape, so I say what are you doing? ”

Bith hurriedly persuaded on the side: "She finally woke up, what are you talking about?" Which errand person is not to pay careful attention to everything, Su Su is young in the end, and he is in charge of such a mess, only more cautious. It was because we were not good, so we didn't pay much attention to it, but in the future, we would love her more. ”

Yang Liu said angrily after hearing this: "I treat her like a sister, she is good, hum ......"

Su Su was a little confused for a while, "Good sister, it's my fault, I have to let me know what made you angry?" Ning Cui, who was pushing the door in, was angry and funny when she heard this, "The old lady can't sleep, ask me to come over and take a look, Su Su, you can be regarded as awake, you have slept for a day and a night!" ”
