Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Storm in the Garden

Until recently, Wanhua was called by Hanxiang to Xiyuan to try on new clothes, but Shaohua refused to go with him on the grounds that it was not his own clothes and did not attract attention. Wanhua didn't force her, anyway, it was already lunch time, and Shaohua didn't have a chance to run around.

The weather is getting warmer, and the sweet soup that has always been fragrant and soft has been replaced by other clear soups, and Shaohua drank a big bowl of winter melon white fungus soup. Because I ate too much hot food in winter, I was restless throughout February, either coughing at night or having a low-grade fever. After a winter, Shaohua gained a lot of weight, and last year's clothes were a little tight, and he was teased by Jinhua that he didn't grow tall and fleshy.

Compared with Shaohua's soft body, Jinhua is much more slender and slender. is one year younger than Shaohua, but his body faintly surpasses Shaohua. The waist is like a willow, a light apricot dress, a jade-colored scarf, and an ink-colored belt, which looks even more slender, as if it can be broken with one hand.

Shaohua stared at her graceful little waist, her eyes were about to burst into flames, and she was almost crying when she looked at the layer of flesh on her stomach. She used to eat meat every day and didn't necessarily gain weight, but now she doesn't have to eat much more than before, but she has grown fat.

However, Shaohua apparently forgot that life in the mansion could not be compared to that on the grass. No matter how restless she is, the most she can do is kick the shuttlecock, play with the cloth bag, and jump the flower rope.

So in the days when Wanhua stared at her every day and didn't let her run around, Shaohua insisted on running laps in the yard every day, holding a thin bamboo to make gestures. Wanhua thought she was uneasy at first, Shaohua patted her chest and made a bold statement: "I already want to restore my slender waist before Duanyang." Wanhua walked over and pinched her waist, and sure enough, she felt deep sympathy and solemnly told her: "Then you have to work hard." ”

Shaohua was almost choked by Wanhua's words, but at least Wanhua no longer stopped her from running around the yard.

"Wu Niangzi, aren't you eating?" Hatsuho looked at the table with nearly half of the food left and asked worriedly.

In the past, Shaohua would never put down his chopsticks if he didn't lick the things on the table, but recently, he has eaten less and less. Although it is to lose weight, it is not such a method, if you are hungry, how to lose weight.

Shaohua reluctantly glanced back, touched his stomach, and shook his head resolutely, "I'm full." You pack it up. Chu He sighed and had to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but Shaohua's eyes followed Chu He's hand and swallowed his saliva aggrievedly.

Seeing this, Youhan chuckled, and hurriedly brought a cup of sweet and sour grapefruit tea made last year, "Wu Niangzi, eat some grapefruit tea, it's delicious and delicious." Last year, I deliberately peeled two thick-skinned grapefruits, and the stains are now just in time to open the urn. "At the bottom of the teacup, there are a few pieces of clear yellow and transparent grapefruit peel strips, which are soaked in the soup into a rich brown color, and the sweet and slightly sour taste is appetizing.

"It's been quiet lately." Shaohua drank the grapefruit tea before squinting and smiling with satisfaction.

"Fifth lady, you didn't pay attention, Taoyuan has long been not peaceful." Youhan looked at her and shook her head.

"What's going on? Isn't that Xiuniang obediently taking care of the third aunt? Shaohua then remembered that he hadn't seen Zhuang Xiuniang for several days. When she first moved in, she spent three days wandering around her yard, and sometimes she was annoyed, so she had to close the door and pretend that she was not there, so she left with Xiaohong. Because Zhuang Xiuniang didn't dare to provoke Jinhua, and Wanhua's silence made her want to get up after sitting for less than half an hour.

suddenly felt that Zhuang Xiuniang was also a little pitiful, she couldn't go back to her home, she was not free in other people's homes, and she was not liked.

"It has nothing to do with that little lady, it was the maid next to her who got into trouble and almost had a big accident." Youhan muttered.

"Tell me more." Shaohua immediately turned over and sat up, gossiped to Youhan's side, and urged excitedly.

In the past few days, she has been trapped in Biwuxuan by Wanhua, she has become a completely blind and deaf person, and Wanhua let her practice calmness at every turn. But with her temperament, if she wants to ignore the outside world, then just let her sleep, and when she is lazy, she doesn't care about anything.

Youhan saw that Shaohua was interested, and began to speak: "I heard my godmother say, my godmother is also a young mother who is in charge of affairs, and Qing's mother is ......" Shaohua listened and interrupted impatiently: "Don't go around, talk about the point!" Youhan was a little aggrieved, thought about it, and had to say: "It's just that the second young master didn't look down on that lady, but it was not easy to drive her away, so he let her serve by the third lady's side." Originally, it was nothing, but the maid was really down, and before the master could speak, she wanted to climb into the bed of the second young master. ”

"Ahem, Xiaohong has become the second brother's person?" Shaohua was choked by Youhan's words and coughed, and when Chu He heard it, he hurriedly ran in from outside and poured water for her. Shaohua raised his hand to stop Chu He's fuss, and continued to look at Youhan, asking her to finish her words.

"No, it's not that easy." Youhan saw the unpleasant color of Chuhe, stuck out his tongue, didn't bother with it, and told Shaohua about the ancient times. "Besides, even if she wins, it's like that, can't she still be promoted?" It's not that there is no such thing as a maid seducing the young master to climb into bed, if it is his own maid, there is a meal to sell, and there is also a match.

But Xiaohong is not the Li family, so it is naturally not easy to sell, but she can't be indulged, this is going to get out, and Li Sinian's reputation will not be ruined.

Youhan's eyes snorted twice with extreme disdain, and secretly scolded the Zhuang family for teaching an unruly maid and ruining their reputation for leaving home. "It's just that the second young master was really annoyed this time, and he was unceremonious to that show lady, and he fell for a while. I don't understand what I said specifically, anyway, it's the truth that readers often say, and the lady is in tears. If it weren't for the protection of the third lady, I was afraid that the second young master would drive them back overnight. ”

This is no small matter! Shaohua clutched his chest and exclaimed, "What about now? Why haven't I heard anyone talk about it? ”

Chu He also listened to it, and sighed: "This is a family ugly, this Taoyuan's own business, how embarrassed to publicize it everywhere." "After the third master passed, Taoyuan was settled, and Aunt Pang came to fight the autumn breeze and lead the sheep with him.

At first, the Li family politely treated her as the only sister of the Pang family, and respectfully respected her as a guest. But after a long time, as soon as Aunt Pang's nature was exposed, neither the Ling family nor the Liu family liked to take care of her. Aunt Pang saw that she couldn't find a good one, so she could only use me in the garden every time to count the two concubines' bad treatment of Pang Zi, and Pang Zi could only smile bitterly.

"I heard that the second young master asked his aunt to bring people back today." It took a long time for Youhan to break out a new news.

Shaohua was about to move, and immediately jumped down, "Let's go, let's go to Taoyuan." ”

Chu He hurriedly grabbed her, "Fifth lady, what are you going to do in Taoyuan, if the third lady knows, she will be unhappy." ”

Shaohua glanced at Chu He dissatisfied, "Didn't I go over the wall and climb the tree, as for making such a fuss." Chuhe Youhan and the two glanced at each other, quite sympathetic, but they didn't dare to answer, Shaohua said angrily: "Whose maid are you, if you really listen to the words of the third sister like this, or you will go to her as a dowry when the time comes." ”

Before they could speak, she strode out, feeling that she was about to grow hair when she stayed in Biwuxuan.

At this time, Taoyuan is really as Youhan said, it is not peaceful.

All the people of the garden put down their work and ran into the courtyard, and they all pricked up their ears to listen to the conversation in the house.

Li Sinian sat at the head of Ponzi's bed, gave her a smooth breath, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he glanced at everyone sharply. Xiaohong was frightened and hid in the corner, afraid of being seen by Li Sinian. Zhuang Xiuniang stood in the middle of the room, intimidated by the majesty of her mother-in-law, and worried about Pang Zi's body, these few days of close care, Zhuang Xiuniang still felt Pang Zi's gentleness and kindness, and hoped that she could become her daughter-in-law.

It's just that since Li Si left early and returned late, or even didn't return all night, Zhuang Xiuniang gave up from the bottom of her heart and took care of Pang Zi's daily life resignedly. On the contrary, Xiaohong was watching from the sidelines and was anxious, if Zhuang Xiuniang couldn't succeed, she would also be scolded, so she secretly drugged Li Sinian's soup porridge, wanting to take advantage of his coma to cook raw rice first.

What she never expected was that Li Sinian didn't like sweets, so he didn't eat a bite of the sweet soup, and for the sake of Zhuang Xiuniang's face, he secretly poured it out and left the empty bowl for her. As a result, the straight hook caught a big fish, and Xiaohong's fat fish was enough to catch the net.

Aunt Pang's thick voice was so loud that everyone in the yard could hear it, she crossed her hands on her hips and looked at Li Sinian angrily: "Since everyone is an adult, just open the skylight and say something bright." I kindly let a lady stay in your house to take care of your aunt, thinking that you are not young, and you also need your own people to take care of the warmth and coldness, if you don't appreciate it, what kind of attitude do you have! ”

Pang Zi listened to his sister's words, and looked at Li Sinian's expression, in a dilemma. Li Sinian had already confessed to her that she couldn't refuse her sister's plea, so she turned a blind eye. After all, on the one hand, she is her only relative, and on the other hand, she is the support of the rest of her life, she has no future, how can she bear to ruin the heir.

Li Sinian patted her hand gently, looked at Aunt Pang, and said lightly: "I didn't know that the maids of my aunt's family were so considerate and in place, and they were still attached to the bed." This is going to be spread, should I say that I misbehaved and didn't even let go of my relatives' maids, or did I say that the banker's maids were well-educated, and they all climbed up when they looked at the benefits. I am grateful to Xiuniang for taking care of my aunt these days, but some of my family are maids, and I am not so extravagant as to take a relative's lady as a maid. Auntie, let's take it back, we understand this kindness. ”

Li Sinian's tone was so calm that he seemed to be talking about today's weather, and it was inaudible that he was almost forced to bow by this relative's maid overlord.
