Chapter 195: Want to Be Sisters?
When the couple was getting close, Caiyun suddenly whispered outside the door, "Madam, Sister-in-law Liu has brought someone to salute." ”
Rui Xue was stunned for a moment, remembering that today was the day when everyone in the workshop officially went to work, and Yingzi was bringing female workers in and walking around to recognize the door. She hurriedly jumped off Zhao Fengnian's lap, and was so shocked that Zhao Fengnian grabbed her waist, wanted to scold her, but was reluctant, so she had to kiss her on the lips again as a punishment, and then personally tidied up her dress and sideburns, Rui Xue playfully stuck out her tongue, although she didn't think that she was three months pregnant, she needed to be so careful, but her lover's care and pet, she was not too redundant.
The couple tidied up their makeup, and when they opened the door and went out, Yingzi was leading the two women to stand in the hall with a smile, and when they saw their husband and wife coming out, they were also a little stunned, accustomed to the fact that the proprietress was mostly wearing cotton dresses on weekdays, and she was facing the sky, and she suddenly saw such a luxurious and grand dress, which was really amazing.
However, soon Yingzi woke up and said with a smile, "I thought that the proprietress was afraid that she had eaten snacks and never took a nap, so I brought Jin Zhi'er and Qiao'er in to salute the proprietress." ”
Zhao Fengnian was in front of his wife, and the rest of the time, he looked at other women, mostly with a light touch, especially after Tian He and the two maidservants, he couldn't wait to see the women all detouring, at this time the hall was full of women, so he naturally didn't want to stay longer, nodded slightly, and was about to walk to the front yard.
However, no one expected that the young woman who was following Yingzi suddenly took a step to the left, as if she wanted to avoid Zhao Fengnian but blocked his way because of panic.
The woman raised her head a little frightened, just when Zhao Fengnian frowned slightly, on her fair face, two delicate little eyebrows moved slightly, a pair of big eyes were full of timidity, and her red and full little mouth trembled slightly, and spit out two words, "Sir..."
The voice was soft and low, like a spring breeze blowing flowers in spring, and anyone who was afraid that they couldn't help but feel numb, but unfortunately, Zhao Fengnian listened to it as if he had been struck by lightning, and suddenly took a big step back, and even stared at him with some disgust.
Qiao'er didn't sleep well all night, and her mind was full of thoughts, just to find such a seemingly coincidental, but actually very conspicuous opportunity to appear in front of Mr. Zhao's eyes, but let her imagine the result thousands of times, she didn't expect that this man not only did not have interest in his eyes, but was so disgusted, why is this?
Where did she think that the eldest lady of the Tian family at the beginning, pretending to be delicate and cowardly, but her skills were deeper than her, Zhao Fengnian had been so poisonous, and now if she saw a hearty and generous woman, she would take a look more, but only for a "weak woman" like her, she couldn't wait to retreat, how far away to hide...
Rui Xue was about to sit in the main seat with her waist in her arms, and the two of them looked at each other like that before, so they were wrong, but the sound of "sir" turned back and forth, her woman's intuition immediately exploded, and her heart shrank suddenly, and when she looked back, there was a touch of inquiry in her eyes...
Zhao Fengnian felt it in his heart, also looked at his wife, coughed embarrassedly, and said, "I'm going to the front yard." ”
Rui Xue smiled faintly and nodded, "Let's go, I'll be back for lunch in half an hour." ”
Zhao Fengnian took a few steps into the oblique side, bypassed Qiao'er and Yingzi, and walked out of the hall quickly.
Both of them are thoughtful people, raising their hands and feet, and even just talking with these few words, they have already expressed their intentions, but Yingzi and others don't know, in their opinion, it's just Qiao'er recklessly blocking the way, and the shopkeeper Kuanren didn't scold, and avoided suspicion and went out of the yard, that's it.
Yingzi glanced at Qiao'er, who was slightly stunned, and stepped forward and said with a smile, "Boss, this is the Qiao'er of Uncle Yunsan's family, Jin Zhi'er must know it." ”
Jin Zhi'er pulled Qiao'er to salute together, Rui Xue smiled and invited a few of them to sit down, Caiyun Caiyue came up with tea and snacks, Rui Xue smiled and said, "When I and the shopkeeper just settled in the village, we didn't eat the mushrooms and pheasants at Jin Zhi'er's sister-in-law's house, how could we not be familiar with each other?" It's just that my sister-in-law has come less during this time, and I still think about going to my sister-in-law's house to sit down one day, but in the future, my sister-in-law will come to the workshop to do things, and I can see it every day. ”
Jin Zhi'er used to be good friends with Rui Xue, and even helped one or two, out of kindness, and also grateful to Zhao Fengnian for teaching his children to read, counting, the two are also equal, now, suddenly Rui Xue has become the boss, she is a hired worker, she is still a little awkward in her heart, I don't know how to deal with myself, but at this time, when she heard Rui Xue's words, she smiled on her face, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "It's all some mountain things, how can the boss remember it so clearly, when the autumn comes, my child's father will go up the mountain again, and ask him to hunt a white-backed elk back, It is said that it is a big supplement, and it is giving the proprietress a fresh taste. ”
"Oh, my sister-in-law is a bad heart, knowing that I can't bear to be greedy at this time, and deliberately provokes me to drool, in case I want to eat at night, but what should I do, I have to endure it until autumn?" Ruixue looked disgusted, which made everyone laugh.
Qiao'er also cheered up at this moment, half-hung her head, sat on the seat in a proper manner, and peeked at Ruixue who was half-seated on the main seat from time to time, although Ruixue said that she had been talking to Jin Zhi'er and Yingzi, in fact, her mind had not left this "weak woman", and she felt a little emotional, Xu is God couldn't see that her life was too leisurely, and made a big drama of "luring the wolf into the room", tossing her to play, but she didn't do it for a few days, but she had to send the women who wanted to enter the house in left and right waves. That's kind of ridiculous.
"This is the Qiao'er sister of Uncle Yun's family?" Rui Xue took a sip of tea, smiled and turned her gaze to Qiao'er, looked at it generously, and said with a smile, "It's really a rare gentle woman, when Aunt Yun came, she praised her a lot, saying that her sister is ingenious, and she knows the 'rules' best, and she is timid, and she wants me to take care of you more in the future, but the second aunt is too worried, and the people in our workshop are very easy to get along with." The sister-in-law is also smart and sensible, so follow Sister-in-law Liu well in the future and get acquainted with her in a few days. ”
Qiao'er heard the word 'rules', for some reason her heart jumped, and when she raised her eyes and looked at Ruixue's smile, she felt a little weak-hearted, but she was stubborn in nature, and she was ruthless by rumors in the past two years, so she held her breath for some reason, and when she got up to speak, she said, "Thank you sister for your concern, my sister will definitely serve my sister well in the future." ”
Ruixue called the women in the workshop, or sister-in-law or sister-in-law, but it was just listening close, in fact, who really dared to treat the boss lady as a sister, so, no matter how she called it, Yingzi responded with the honorific title of the boss lady, only the two veteran figures of sister-in-law Zhang and Cui Niang can really call a sister, I didn't expect that Qiao'er was so rude today, she actually shouted the word sister, no matter how it sounded, it felt wrong.
Yingzi frowned, complaining in her heart, saying that Qiao'er is a clever person, why has she been bored at home for two years and is so stupid, acting and speaking so out of tune, she is slandered in her heart, but she still has a smile on her face, and she helps to turn around, "Qiao'er is happy and stupid, the proprietress is very sympathetic to us, and she only does the work in the workshop on weekdays, and she doesn't call us into the backyard to help." ”
Qiao'er seemed to be a little disappointed, bit her lip, didn't speak again, Rui Xue smiled slightly, and said, "Now that dry tofu has been added to the workshop, you have more work, how can you be tired again, besides, I still have Caiyun Caiyue by my side." ”
Yingzi and Jin Zhi'er smiled and said a few more gossips, then said goodbye and went back to the front yard, the three of them walked towards the second gate, Yingzi whispered, "What's wrong with Qiao'er today, so reckless, you have to cheer up in the future, although the boss lady and the shopkeeper are good talkers, but we as hired workers must also understand the rules..."
Qiao'er's face was slightly red, and she responded timidly, but the handkerchief under her hand was twisted so much that it almost became a twist, and when she turned the second door, she was unwilling to turn her head and look back at the hall.
The noonday sun shone into the wide open hall door, reflected on the smiling woman drinking tea, the fine brocade dress, the red gold step, the green bracelet, all covered with a faint halo, all showing wealth and excellence...
Qiao'er's handkerchief twisted even harder, and she couldn't suppress those envy and greed in her heart, if one day these luxurious things were worn on herself, I was afraid that she would be more beautiful than her, right?
is also a peasant woman, she is even a lowly maid, without the help of her parents and brothers, how can she enjoy such a rich life, and she has a good life, and her temperament is not bad, but she has to lower her eyebrows and be pleasing to the eyes, and survive under the rumors of a group of long-tongued women? She is unwilling, unwilling...
Rui Xue slowly refilled a cup of new tea, drank it shallowly, her fingers were a little, and she looked at the mahogany tabletop for a while, and there was a rare deep thought on her face, which made Caiyun Caiyue a little panicked, and the sisters looked at each other for a long time, Caiyue was straight-tempered, couldn't hold back her words, stepped forward, pouted and said, "Madam, my sister and I can serve you well, don't let the people in the front yard enter the second door in the future." ”
Rui Xue said softly, her eyes were misty, and her mind still didn't seem to turn back, Caiyue became a little impatient, and couldn't help but take her hand and shake it, "Madam, that person named Qiao'er is not a good person, you must not let her come in again!"
Rui Xue was dizzy from being shaken by her, and finally came to her senses, and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, definitely don't let her in, don't shake it." ”
Caiyun stepped forward and slapped away her reckless sister and said, "Madam, Caiyue didn't mean it, she was confused when she was in a hurry." ”
Rui Xue helped the somewhat loose step shake, and sighed softly, "You two sisters have seen something, why don't you want Qiao'er to go into the backyard?" ”
Without waiting for Caiyun to reply, Caiyue hurriedly said, "She is called Mrs. Sister, but she is not well-intentioned, she... She has a bad heart, she..."
