Chapter Forty-Seven: Another Poor Parrot......
[Chapter 3, Volume 3]
Section 178
While speaking, he had already arrived outside the Pujia Pavilion where Song Zaishui lived, and before he entered, through the door, he first heard bursts of birds chirping, and occasionally there was the shouting of the maid - Wei Changying was about to say, "My cousin's yard is really lively", but Song Zaishui's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "Oops, doesn't it want to eat the parrot again with a snowball?" I didn't have time to explain to Wei Changying, so I ran in with my skirt.
Seeing this, Wei Changying hurriedly followed.
When you enter the door, you are greeted by a piece of birds and flowers, the whole courtyard is clean and tidy, and the blue brick floor is swept clean with a thin broom, and there is not even a single fallen flower and leaf. It was surrounded by lush trees, with brightly colored flowers blooming in the middle, and on some branches that were a little taller than a person, hung ten bird shelves, each with a parrot with colorful feathers.
Several of them can already speak, and at the moment they are shouting "help" and "help" in a crisp girl's voice, and some parrots are obviously better trained, while fluttering their wings and calling "Miss is back", the shelves are staggered, the flower branches are shaking, and the petals and feathers are flying together, which is really extraordinary......
Wei Changying was feeling dizzying, but saw a large group of maids running from the east corridor to the west corridor and from the west corridor to the east corridor with their sleeves in hand, chasing a lion cat.
This lion cat is exactly the same as Song Zaishui's description, the whole body is snow-white, fat as a ball, but the movements are still very vigorous, and it is about to be caught a few times, but it is told to rush out...... In such a chaotic situation, Wei Changying and his party were speechless, and saw that Song Zaishui himself also rolled up his sleeves and went into battle - what is the master, Song Zaishui did not tiptoe up, but walked near the lion cat, crossed his waist and shouted: "Snowball!" Don't get out of here with me and confess your guilt! ”
The lion cat, whose name should be Snowball, raised its fat face and looked at its owner, Wei Changying thought it would meow coquettishly, but it didn't, and then took a closer look, and understood: this guy's fat face squirmed, and the corners of his mouth showed a corner of emerald wings.
Snowball swallowed the parrot in two bites, and then ran to Song Zaishui, wiped her skirt with her mouth, and mewed flatteringly, grabbing her skirt with her paws and trying to climb up.
…… You don't have to look at it to guess that Song Zaishui's skirt will be pulled out when she looks back at it.
Song squatted down in a hurry, slapped away the snowball that wanted to take the opportunity to pounce into her arms, grabbed its head, and ordered left and right: "Hold it!" I'll see if Cui Yin'er can be saved! ”
Wei Changying was already laughing straight down at this time, and walked over with tears to persuade: "I watched it swallow it, how can I save it?" She pointed to the empty shelf that was still dangling not far away and asked, "Is it the parrot that was on top of it?" Just a shelf, don't get a cage, you don't know that you have a lion cat, how can there be a cat that doesn't like to steal its mouth, and you can't complain about being taken by it! ”
Song Zaishui had already worked together with Chunjing to break Snowball's beak at this time, and sure enough, the parrot named Cuiyin'er was gone, and he couldn't help but be very frustrated: "Cuiyin'er is the best parrot who has been trained well, and she will have to say hello and sing two small songs." I wanted to show it off to you, but it turned out to be so late, so I made it belly! Thinking of this, he hatefully lifted the snowball and threw it on the ground, and scolded angrily, "Which one are you holding is not good, but you are holding that Cuiyiner!" You won't be allowed to eat today or tomorrow! ”
Snowball was thrown on the ground by the owner, and I don't know if it was too fat or pretended, so it took two struggles to get up, and I whispered and rubbed against the edge of her skirt, pitiful, and whispered to please.
Song Zaishui raised his head, didn't pay attention to her, stretched out his hand to smooth his sideburns, and introduced his yard in a regrouping manner: "Parrots will be scared so much, Chunjing, you can take someone to put them away." The appeasement will be taken out again...... Xia Jing took the snowball to the house and locked it! Chang Ying, come and see the fish, the water lilies in these fish tanks are all planted by me, if you look good, even the tank will be moved away. This thing is growing well now, don't worry about it at all, just leave it in the courtyard or in the house. ”
Wei Changying looked at the row of eight cylinders not far away, and muttered, "Have you thought of one thing?" ”
Song Zaishui was stunned: "What? When she looked at it, she saw that the water on the side of the tank was ticking, and the lotus leaves in the tank seemed to be much thinner...... She was excited, ran over to take a look, and immediately jumped to her feet in anger, and asked loudly, "Aunt An, Aunt An, come here!" How did you look at the yard? Cui Yin'er was bitten by a snowball, so why did she even ...... fish The fish tank and water lilies were also made like this? ”
A woman in a blue skirt came up and said in fear: "The servant is guilty, please punish the eldest lady!" ”
Song Zaishui flicked his sleeves angrily: "You! You're all gone this month! ”
The woman's An lowered her eyebrows and replied with a pleasant yes - Song Zaishui walked up and down by the fish tank, unwillingly brushed aside the water lily leaves on it, and looked for a long time in the water that was turbid and had not yet cleared up to this point, and finally saw a little red flashing, and couldn't help but rejoice: "I know that the eight-tank fish, no matter how greedy the snowball is, how can I finish eating?" He beckoned Wei Changying to go over and see it together.
Wei Changying was not very interested in water lilies and goldfish, so he sighed and said: "Cousin, I just said, I'm dizzy now, you let me sit down first, and the water will be clear here, and I can look kinder, okay?" ”
Song Zaishui was worried about showing off her flowers and pets to her cousin, but she forgot that Wei Changying urged the carriage today, and she was uncomfortable with bumps all the way, she has always boasted of being fine, which will be a little ridiculous, and she diligently took Wei Changying's arm: "The house is stuffy in this weather, it is better to ask someone to bring a soft couch and put it next to this fish tank, there is osmanthus trees here to shade, and there is wind, let's talk, and we are happy." ”
Someone went in and carried the soft couch, a small table, and the incense burner out, Wei Changying saw the incense burner and said: "This season is just full of flowers, this yard is planted with so many flowers, and there are water lilies next to it, so there is no need to burn incense?" ”
"This one doesn't smell." Song is in the waterway, "There are more flowers and trees, and there are more mosquitoes, which is insect repellent." ”
Burning the insect repellent incense, the two cousins sat on the soft couch every few times, and the autumn and winter scenes held seasonal melons and fruits, and a large pot of agarwood drink and a pot of black plum drink were served. Song Zaishui let Wei Changying use it at will, and then took a fan to pounce on her, and said with a smile: "Is it hot?" If it's hot, ask someone to bring the ice. ”
"Didn't you say it's very cold here?" Wei Changying beckoned, Qin Ge came over and poured her a black plum drink, she took a sip and said, "This black plum drink is good, just the right amount of sweetness." ”
Song Zaishui took a cherry and tasted it, and then said, "I drank it a little sweeter, but I knew that your taste was a little sweeter than mine, so I told them to put more sugar." ”
Wei Changying said with satisfaction: "My cousin hurts people." ”
"No way, who told me that I don't have a sister? This is the heart of a sister, and it can only cheapen you. Song sighed in the water.
Wei Changying said with a smile: "I don't have a sister-in-law, my heart for my sister ......"
"Your heart for a sister, toss a dead person!" Song Zaishui glared at her, obviously in the past few months in Fengzhou, she had a deep memory, "It's a shame that you don't have a sister, otherwise if you don't beat you three times a day, you won't be able to live your life!" ”
"If it's my own sister, why is she willing to beat me?" Wei Changying smiled coquettishly, "Cousin, you are reluctant to beat me." ”
Song Zaishui said: "I think I can't beat you because I have no power to tie the chicken!" Otherwise, I would have beaten you up a long time ago! Besides, in Fengzhou, didn't I beat you? ”
Wei Changying leaned on the small table, held his cheeks, and smiled: "Ah, cousin, are you beating people so softly?" I mean, you're joking with me! ”
Song Zaishui knocked on her arm with a fan and said angrily: "If you say it again, I'll call you again!" ”
The two laughed and quarreled, and Wei Changying asked about Duanmu Wuse: "How did my cousin clean her up?" ”
Song Zaishui said disdainfully: "How else can I clean it up?" I directly told my father and second brother about the matter, and proposed to go back to Jiangnan to guard my grandfather and grandmother, and I will not be in the imperial capital in this life. ”
Wei Changying hurriedly asked, "What about later?" ”
"I'm really sorry for the second brother." Song Zaishui said with annoyance, "My father didn't want to go to his daughter-in-law to settle the accounts, so he counted all the accounts on the second brother, and the second brother moved the family law to let him manage his wife!" ”
"Then the second cousin?"
Song hooked the corner of his mouth, and said with a slight sneer: "The second brother already loves me very much, and after knowing what Duanmu Wuse said to me, he was so angry that he died, and after being beaten by his father, he didn't even sue him, so he went back and dragged Duanmu Wuse into the carriage and let people send her back to Duanmu's house!" ”
"Huh? Then why is she still in the house, coming in and out? Listening to what you just spoke, you are still in charge? Wei Changying asked in surprise.
Song Zaijiang's meaning is to drive Duanmu Wuse back to his parents' house, and he doesn't want her anymore!
"The second brother didn't plan to ask for her, but Duanmu's family came to the door and said left and right, Duanmu's colorless mother came to me in person, so she almost knelt down outside the Pujia Pavilion...... The second brother relented, so he allowed her to come back. Song Zaishui sneered, "But life is not easy after she comes back, and her father can't directly clean her up because of her identity, so he uses the excuse that the second brother has no children under his knees, so he lets the eldest sister-in-law have a snack." The eldest sister-in-law bought several beautiful sons from outside for the second brother...... You must know that Duanmu is colorless and jealous, and the second brother is easy to speak, so he originally sent out all the maids he had served before according to her wishes. Now, the second room is very lively! ”
Wei Changying said: "Duanmu is colorless, this is all deserved!" But my cousin just told her about the housekeeping? ”
"My sister-in-law had a miscarriage a few days ago, and I wanted to entrust the matter to me for two days." Song Zaishui turned his face again, and said, "I haven't opened my mouth yet!" Duanmu colorless couldn't wait to say that I had damaged my appearance, and I wore a hat when I went in and out, so it was inconvenient for the housekeeper, so she should come. ”
"Why is this woman so annoying?" Wei Changying's teeth itched, and he proposed, "I'll find a reason to beat her up later?" ”
