027 Unexpected
Weilan Pavilion may be the most eye-catching courtyard except for the courtyard where the girls of the Cheng family live.
The exterior walls are all covered with feather leaf dill, but the flowering period has not yet arrived, and it is impossible to enjoy the flourishing flowers that are densely dotted with red or pink five-pointed stars, but the leaves are stretched and swaying in the wind, which is also very beautiful.
There is a larger flower bed in the courtyard, surrounded by a few small ones, the layout is somewhat similar to the garden, it is planted all over the moon season, there are many varieties, it has entered the flowering period, it is eager to open, the white, the pink, the yellow, the red, the orange, the blue, and the compound color, it is not gorgeous, it deserves the reputation of "the queen of flowers".
When they entered the door, Qin Gulan was standing among the flowers, and she looked like a fairy in a hibiscus-colored silk dress lined with flowers.
When I saw them, I didn't seem to be surprised at all, just smiled, still as reserved as when I first saw them, and then moved out of the flower bed, and the maid placed tea on the round table outside, inviting Cheng Xueyan to drink together.
Cheng Xueyan didn't notice Bi Tongzhi's frown, she was just thinking about how to open her mouth to Qin Gulan.
Qin Gulan has an elegant demeanor, and even the fingers pinching the fine porcelain teacup are placed in a very good position, and they are just right. Cheng Xueyan's style is naturally not inferior or even a little more charming, but she always feels a faint sense of oppression. Although the courtyard was full of flowers, the tense atmosphere gradually covered like an invisible net.
"Why is my sister here today?" Qin Gulan put down the teacup and opened her mouth softly.
The girls who teach in Guan Ju Hall are all called "sir", but Qin Gulan calls Cheng Xueyan "sister", which is quite close, but Cheng Xueyan is inexplicably uncomfortable.
"You probably know, I'm going to perform in Tingyin Building on the day of Lixia, and I want to ask Miss Qin for a favor." Cheng Xueyan has always been outspoken.
"My sister is really joking. How do I know what my sister is going to do in the listening building? I've always only taught the piano skills, and the rest ......" She played with a pink moon in her hand: "I don't know what my sister wants my sister to help me with?" ”
At this point, Cheng Xueyan only felt that it was useless to say more, but the other party asked again.
"I just want to bother Miss Qin to help with the accompaniment......"
"Accompaniment?" Qin Gulan's eyes widened, her long eyelashes flashed, and she suddenly laughed: "What did my sister say?" How can my sister's skills be worthy of accompaniment to my sister? My sister sings the sound of nature, if it is paired with my sister's unbearable piano skills, won't it pollute my sister's ability? ”
"Miss Qin is really overrated, I haven't started singing yet, how does Miss Qin know that it is the sound of heaven?" Cheng Xueyan was still smiling on her face, but her heart began to be on fire.
This Qin Gulan spoke like a needle hidden in the cotton, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"My sister is really humble. Who doesn't know my sister in Dijing? Cheng Shangshu's pearl in the palm of his hand, he was appointed as Mr. Guan Juguan at the age of thirteen, and at the age of fifteen, he was personally asked by Gu Taiwei to be his third daughter-in-law. My sister has always been a leader in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, why did she suddenly ask my sister for help? I really killed my sister. My sister privately thinks that it is most appropriate for my sister to play and sing by herself, if someone else interferes, won't she take away my sister's demeanor? Besides, even if my sister doesn't need to accompaniment, in fact, she doesn't need to open her mouth at all, and sitting there is enough to turn sentient beings upside down. My sister knows what her sister's intentions are, so she won't draw snakes......"
Cheng Xueyan came out of Weilan Pavilion with a stomach full of breath, and walked quickly all the way.
Bitong knew that her master was angry, and she didn't dare to make a sound, but she followed closely without falling behind.
When they arrived at Jiaxun Garden, a quarrel inside caused the two to slow down.
“…… Qitong, the eldest prince won't go back to the house today, who are you dressed up like this to see? ”
Listening to the voice, it looks like Du Mizhen's personal maid Youcui.
"What do I wear have to do with the eldest prince?"
Qitong's voice was a little low, and her head was lowered, and she took two quick steps, intending to bypass Youcui.
"What's in a hurry, dare to do it!" Youcui stretched out her arm and stopped her: "Let me ask you, did you give you the lock embroidered yarn that the eldest prince wore?" ”
Qitong's face turned red, and he didn't reply, he broke away from the young cui and left.
"If you don't say it, you're acquiescing!"
Youcui and Qitong are the same size, but they are thicker than her, so they easily pulled Qitong back.
"Tsk, look, this little looks ......" Youcui looked up and down around Qitong, shaking her head and sighing: "It's a pity that the young lady's body is the life of the maid, and she wants to be a concubine for the eldest prince?" Do you still want to be a grandmother? ”
"Youcui, why are you ......?"
"'Nonsense'...... Is it? Am I talking nonsense? Don't think I don't know your mind! Youcui suddenly became vicious: "You are a water-based poplar as soon as you hit the ground!" As soon as you enter the house, you go to please the eldest girl, you know that the eldest son loves the eldest girl the most, and you want to get the moon first near the water building, right? I can't believe that you were just a seven-year-old girl at the time, and you had this kind of thought......"
"Madame asked me to go......" Qitong's voice had begun to tremble.
"Ma'am? What Madame hates the most is a water-based poplar like you! Fortunately, the third girl asked you to go. What about you? I know that I deceived the honest third girl by being clever, and coaxed her to give you a lot of good clothes, and then you wore them to the eldest prince to show off......"
"I didn't!"
"You still dare to talk back?"
only heard the crisp sound of "pop", Cheng Xueyan, who was hiding outside the weeping flower door, was about to rush in to do chivalrous righteousness, but was dragged by Bitong desperately.
"Let me tell you, don't rely on a little bit of posture to not know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, you are a girl, the master wants to match you to whomever he wants, how can you make your own decisions? Don't even think about making the eldest prince small! But since you want to marry so much, I'll tell your wife one day. By the way, the boss of Qian, who runs a grocery store by the city gate, just died a few days ago...... Don't feel aggrieved, filling the house is also a main house, not better than being a small person? Besides, you have to be clear about your identity, don't be higher than the sky......"
Qitong ran away crying.
Youcui stomped her foot hatefully and took a sip.
Seeing Youcui go away, Bi Tongfang let go of the hand covering Cheng Xueyan's mouth and knelt down: "The slave begs the girl to punish her." ”
Cheng Xueyan gasped a few times: "Punishment? Okay, you know what's wrong? ”
Bi Tong's face was calm: "The slave shouldn't stop the girl." ”
"You know what you do? Say, what do you think? Do you just watch others being bullied? ”
"The slave doesn't want to see the girl being bullied."
Cheng Xueyan was stunned: "What are you talking about?" ”
"Girl," Bi Tong knelt straight, raised her eyes to look at her, and her gaze did not dodge: "Youcui is Madame's personal maid......"
Cheng Xueyan began to understand.
"If the girl helps Qitong, she will offend Youcui. Offending Youcui is equivalent to offending Madame, even though she is a subordinate, but she is a celebrity next to Madame, the girl shouldn't want to make Madame unhappy at this time......"
Cheng Xueyan couldn't help clenching her fists. If she had thought of this at the time, would she still rush out without hesitation?
"You...... Get up. ”
Bi Tong didn't shirk it, got up and patted the dust on her skirt, and came over to support Cheng Xueyan: "Girl, in fact, you can't control this kind of thing." The master has the rules of the master, and the subordinates have the rules of the subordinates, and if they commit a crime, they have their own people who should be in charge. If you interfere without permission, not only will people not thank you, but they will think you are a bully......"
What Bi Tong said also makes some sense. I have never seen the chairman of a company personally go to the trouble of a junior employee, and the head of the department is always responsible for handling it. If you are condescending to be respectful in everything, it will make people look down on you.
She couldn't help but look at Bi Tong with admiration, this nineteen-year-old little girl has such an old understanding, is it because she has lived in Cheng Mansion for a long time? If this is the case, it shows that Cheng Fu is far more complicated than he sees. And Bitong ...... What would happen if she didn't have her heart set on herself?
Bi Tong didn't notice that the master was thinking about something, but said to herself: "The conflict between them is not a matter of a day or two, and I have encountered it several times." It's not just Qitong, Miaotong, Pan'er...... Who hasn't been scolded by Youcui? ”
"It's all because of my brother?"
"Isn't it?" Bi Tong was angry: "I want to make the eldest son small, and I want to fly on the branches and become a phoenix......"
This brother is quite popular with women, no wonder, Cheng Cangyi is tall, burly and handsome, and has a momentum, it is difficult to recruit girls or not. Ah, she is proud and proud to have such an older brother!
"What about you?"
The sudden question made Bitong blush: "Girl, what are you talking about?" ”
Anyway, she's just a nineteen-year-old girl.
"I didn't say anything, the man should get married, the woman should get married, don't you want to find a good home for yourself?"
Cheng Xueyan also said in her heart, in such a time and space, a woman's life's expectations are just a good destination.
Bitong lost his mind for a moment: "We are just slaves, and when the master is no longer needed, we will live with whoever we match." ”
Is this marrying a chicken and a dog marrying a dog?
Cheng Xueyan was suddenly sad, a good girl, just relying on other people's thoughts to live with a person she may not like at all for a lifetime, can anyone understand her helplessness? Maybe in the end, there is only one thing left to accept fate.
"Although I am the master, you have followed me since I was a child, and you also know the roots. I don't know anyone, I'm afraid I can't promise you away soon, and I only have you by my side, there is no 'can't use' problem, if you stay for a long time, will you blame me? ”
These words were extremely sincere, but they also hinted that Bitong wanted Bitong to understand that she was very dependent on her.
If you want someone to be genuine to you, you must first make him feel that he is important to you.
Bitong was really moved, and almost wanted to kneel down immediately, but was stopped by Cheng Xueyan.
"Girl, Bitong is willing to serve the girl for the rest of her life!"
Cheng Xueyan didn't watch this less on TV, and she was very sincere when she said it, but the woman didn't stay in it.
