Chapter 208: The Rat Returns

Rui Xue also said casually, seeing that he was still serious, his heart was even sweeter to flow honey, three or two put on clothes, after washing, he went to the stove to make a stewed nutritious and rich breakfast, of course, what cannot be missing, is four bowls of golden and soft egg custard.

The family ate, Amber clipped the chessboard, and went to Mr. Yan to pass the free, Zhao Fengnian heard Ruixue talk about Ben Thunder Shenjun, and his heart was also very curious about the legendary Maxima, so he asked Wu Yu to take him to the stable to see, Wu Yu was full of reluctance, for fear that he would not be able to pull it out if he saw it in his eyes, Rui Xue was funny and knocked him on the head, "Don't worry, it was given to you by my sister, and the shopkeeper can't grab it." ”

With his sister's assurance, Wu Yu and Zhao Fengnian went out of the second door one after the other, but as soon as the two of them walked to the door of the East Chamber, they saw a woman coming out of it, it was none other than Qiao'er, who had not appeared for a few days.

Zhao Fengnian immediately looked like he had seen a plague, turned his head and went back to the account room, Wu Yu secretly gritted his teeth, remembered his sister's instructions, and also snorted coldly and went to the stable.

Qiao'er was stunned for a long time, and there was a touch of joy on her face, she had been hiding at home for the past few days, being scolded by her father and mother, her brother's complaints, she was ashamed to death, she hated Wu Yu for ruining her good deeds, and she also hated Zhao Fengnian for not understanding the amorous feelings, but more than that, she was too scared, she knew too well the taste of being pointed at, if this matter was spread, she would have no face to live.

However, after three or four days in a row, there was no movement in the village, and a few people in the Yun family came to life, Yun Qiang went out for a turn, and when he came back, he said, "What happened that day, maybe there was some inside information so that there was no gossip to spread out, Qiao'er went back to the workshop to walk around and take a look." ”

Yun Sanye and his wife both agreed, so Qiao'er rubbed into Zhao's door, but Pomegranate Jin Zhi'er waited to see her, and asked her with a concerned face, whether she was sick and why she would go to work in a few days, and at the end of the day, she also instructed her, "Although the shopkeeper and the proprietress are kind-hearted, we can't be too out of line, take the salary, always do more work, don't be lazy." ”

Qiao'er responded to Nono in her mouth, but her heart was happy, could it be that the events of that day were really not seen, and she would have a chance to stay in the workshop in the future?

While she was busy with her work, she regretted that she was in too much hurry that day, and she should have probed Mr. Zhao's tone, maybe he also had some thoughts, and he had to pretend to be so disgusted because he was broken by his wife and brother.

She was cranky in her heart, and her subordinates had no head, and after knocking over a pot of soy milk, she was kicked out by Yingzi to wash the tofu cloth, and then she met Zhao Fengnian and Wu Yu. With many previous assumptions, in her heart, Zhao Fengnian turned his head and left, which naturally became inconvenient to say more, Wu Yu was so dissatisfied but not angry, and it was also a relationship that was secretly reprimanded.

She was overjoyed, who knew that these two people didn't knock her out immediately and threw her out, but it was just because Rui Xue wanted to leave her for a pastime...

Soon, when Caiyun went to the front yard, he saw Qiao'er coming back, so he ran back to tell Rui Xue the news, Rui Xue was boring flipping through the sewing basket, planning to sew a purse, Caiyue took a bunch of leftovers left over from the clothes on weekdays, and chirped, this material is good, the color is good, Rui Xue also felt a little interested when she heard Caiyun say this, so she put the needle and thread, and said with a smile, "This workshop is not her family, how can you just go, come when you say it, go to the front yard and tell Sister-in-law Liu, bring her in to talk." ”

Caiyun answered, and was about to go out, but Caiyue jumped down from the edge of the kang and shouted, "I'll go, I'll go, I want to see how thick that woman's face is." ”

After speaking, he ran away happily, Caiyun was helpless, bowed his head and saluted to admit his mistake for his sister, "Madam, Caiyue is impatient..."

Rui Xue guessed what she was going to say, smiled and waved her hand, "That's it, this girl has a lively temperament, with her, this yard is still lively, as for when you go out, you just look at her more, don't cause any trouble." ”

Caiyun hurriedly responded, feeling grateful, stepped forward to arrange the fabric, picked two palm-sized dark green brocades, and matched two light-colored embroidery threads, and said with a smile, "Madame, it's better to embroider a pattern and give it to Mr. ”

Rui Xue remembered that every time Zhao Fengnian saw the look of the purse on Wu Yu's waist, he seemed to grab it, so he smiled and nodded.

In the front yard, Yingzi was helping Qiao'er dry the tofu cloth, and when she saw Caiyue coming, she asked, "But the boss lady, do you have something to order?" ”

Caiyue glanced at Qiao'er next to her and said, "Sister-in-law Liu, Madame wants you to take Qiao'er to the backyard to talk." Whoever leaves in the workshop, who comes again, must talk to the master's family, and can't break the rules. ”

Yingzi's face turned red, and she hurriedly wiped her hands on her apron and said, "Oh, look at my brain, I forgot about business when I got busy, so I'll take Qiao'er over." ”

Caiyue smiled and took her hand, "Madame said that Sister-in-law Liu's needlework is very good, my sister and I are going to embroider a summer shirt for Madame, when will Sister-in-law Liu be empty, but you have to point us out." ”

Yingzi understood and knew that this little girl was trying to tell her that Madame didn't mean to blame her, and was just targeting another object, Qiao'er.

Caiyue looked at Qiao'er's face from the corner of her eyes, her heart was dark, and after a few more gossips, she turned around and went back.

Yingzi washed her hands, took off her apron, and didn't allow Qiao'er to hesitate, so she pulled her to the backyard, Qiao'er was a little flustered, guessing if Rui Xue knew about that day and wanted to deal with her?

Zhao Fengnian finished checking the last account book, stretched his waist, listened to the fact that the courtyard was very quiet, and wanted to go back to the backyard to see what Rui Xue was doing, but unfortunately, people are not as good as the sky, the more they want to hide from whom, the more they want to meet with whom, as soon as he opened the door, he met with Qiao'er who was worried in his heart, he wanted to close the door immediately, and felt that Yingzi was watching from the side, which damaged the face of his shopkeeper, so he went out of the door and nodded slightly.

Qiao'er's eyes lit up as if they were about to catch fire, and she ran to him in three or two steps, her lips trembled, and she whispered, "Sir, Madam called me to speak, I... I'm afraid..."She deliberately made such a weak appearance, and her voice became more and more delicate, soft and glutinous, and extremely pitiful.

Zhao Fengnian shook his shoulders fiercely, as if he was going to throw goosebumps all over his body to the ground, if he followed his intentions, he directly pinched the woman's neck and threw it outside the courtyard wall, and his house would be clean, but after he passed the matter of Tian He and the two maidservants, he had a heart, but all the women's affairs were handed over to Rui Xue, and he would definitely not be the slightest suspicious, so he was patient and said, "Madam is not a strict person, what's so terrible?" Since you are called, just take care of yourself. ”

After saying that, he walked away, and soon disappeared in the second door, and was about to go back to the main room, and was afraid that Rui Xue would pick up the woman after a while, he was killed by the pond fish on the side, and immediately, his feet turned around and went to the East Garden.

In fact, the original intention of Zhao Fengnian's words was to correct Ruixue's name, and he didn't want Qiao'er to say that she was strict and mean, but in Qiao'er's ears, it actually became a reassuring pill, pondering, Mr. This is implying that he has his support for everything, and he doesn't have to worry about his wife embarrassing her.

So her back really stood up, and she also had a smile on her face, not waiting for Yingzi to call her, she walked ahead first, Yingzi frowned slightly, looked at her back, and couldn't help sighing, good girl, why did she lose her mind, what kind of relationship did the shopkeeper and the proprietress have, which one of her little girls could insert it.

Caiyun took the two into the hall, invited Yingzi to sit down, served tea and snacks, but did not greet Qiao'er to sit together, as if there was no such person as her in the hall, Qiao'er was secretly annoyed, thinking that in the future, when she entered the door, she would definitely want to sell these two girls who looked down on people.

Ruixue came out of the back room, and saw that the "mouse" who tried everything possible to climb into her house had a very ugly face, and she couldn't help but smile at the corner of her mouth.

Yingzi got up and saluted, and said with a smile, "The boss lady has been looking good these days, I'm afraid I've survived the morning sickness, right?" ”

Rui Xue nodded, "I rarely vomit recently, and the rice is fragrant, much more comfortable than before." ”

"When I was pregnant with my big hair..."

They laughed and gossiped, one taught the parenting scriptures, and the other listened to them with relish, but it was also very lively.

In this way, after a long time, Rui Xue seemed to see Qiao'er standing aside, and said with a smile, "Qiao'er, why do you see the outside like this, sit down and have a cup of tea." ”

Qiao'er pursed her lips slightly, not angry with her, and after whispering her thanks, she passed over Yingzi who was sitting on the chair by the door, and sat directly next to Rui Xue, her face was extremely calm, without the slightest panic, as if it was her place in the first place.

Rui Xue raised her eyebrows, drank tea and ate snacks as usual, without scolding or dissatisfaction, which made Qiao'er feel more confident.

Yingzi glared at Qiao'er fiercely, complaining that she didn't understand the rules, and was about to call her, but heard Rui Xue say, "Qiao'er hasn't come to work for a few days, I don't know what the reason is?" ”

Qiao'er leaned forward slightly, half-lowered her eyes, and thought that she had revealed the most perfect side face, before she said coquettishly, "Sister, don't blame, my sister has been a little uncomfortable these days, and as soon as she felt better, she hurried here, for fear of... Well, sir and everybody are concerned. ”

This is explicit enough, anyone can hear it, the word "everyone" is the foil, Mr. is the point, Caiyue immediately picked up the broom at hand and stepped forward to pump her, but Caiyun quickly stopped her and pinched it hard, she reluctantly withdrew her hand, stared at a pair of angry big eyes, and wanted to burn Qiao'er to ashes to relieve her hatred.

"Oh, I have a heart to say this," Rui Xue put down the teacup in her hand, and picked it out in the snack plate for a long time, then broke a piece of butterfly cake and put it in her mouth, ate it slowly, and said with a smile, "I and the shopkeeper are not the people who care about the catty, and the workshop is full of villagers in the village. However, Qiao'er delayed for four days this time, but it was a little too long, and it was really difficult to start this in the workshop, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to establish rules in the future. Therefore, Sister-in-law Liu told Steward Zhang after a while, deducted Qiao'er's salary for the past few days, and also talked to everyone to save anyone from accidentally committing it again, and it should be distressing if there is less salary at the end of the month. ”

Yingzi hurriedly stood up and responded, "What the boss lady said is that you will be paid for your work, and if you delay, you will naturally deduct your wages, which is a matter of course, and everyone must understand it in their hearts." ”

Rui Xue nodded and smiled, "That's okay, the workshop is still busy, you go back, it's hot these days, ask the big kitchen to cook more mung bean water, everyone drink some, don't get the heat." ”

"Yes, Mrs. Xie is compassionate."

Yingzi saluted again, and when she raised her feet to go out, she saw that Qiao'er was still sitting on the top and was stunned, so she went over and pulled her and said, "What's the matter, there is still work in the workshop, let's go back quickly." ”

Qiao'er was dragged and staggered a few steps before she came back to her senses, and saw Rui Xue smiling and sitting on the main seat drinking tea, so she asked, "Sister, you don't have anything else to say, do you want to talk to me?" ”

Rui Xue frowned slightly, pondered carefully for a long time, as if she suddenly remembered something important, and said with a smile, "Oh, don't say it, there is really something I forgot." ”

Qiao'er's heart was immediately full of hope again, "Sister has something to say." ”

Rui Xue got up, slowly straightened out the slightly wrinkled skirt corners, and raised her hand to support the silver hairpin on her head, which satisfied Qiao'er's appetite, and then said lightly, "Oh, I just forgot, my mother's family is only my only daughter, and I have never had half a sister, not before, and never in the future, so Qiao'er remember to call me the boss lady or Mrs. in the future, don't mess with the rules." ”

Qiao'er fell from heaven to hell in an instant, her face like ashes...
