Chapter 10: A Lot of Clothes
Xiao Wan didn't notice this, and Mrs. Sun didn't have any other unusual behavior, she only looked at the big red happy words, quietly put it down, and went down the stairs.
Ling Chaofeng stood inside the door with a limited field of vision, and he couldn't see the scene on the second floor, but he could imagine the look on Mrs. Sun's face when she passed by "Yunpeng" at this moment.
Eyes moved back to Xiaowan's door, I don't know what the little lady is thinking now, no, she should be thinking about it, and she wants to withdraw from the marriage.
In fact, Xiaowan closed the door and looked at the red wedding room layout in a daze.
This whole day, she did a lot of work, and ate a lot of delicious food, everything in the inn was in her eyes, and she didn't believe it anymore if she had to say that this was a black shop.
It was Ling Chaofeng, although he kept scaring her and murdering her, but he was just talking, not to mention whether he had saved her last night to find or arrest her, and at this moment, on the desk against the wall, there were still full of silver and copper plates under the red candles of the dragon and phoenix, as if no one was worried that she would take the money.
Xiao Yi weighed the silver ingots before the night, how much is two taels of silver, she took out her broken silver and compared, the silver ingots are really heavy, it must be much more than two taels.
With so much money, if the stepmother sees it, I'm afraid that my eyes will fall out.
When she raised her eyes, she saw a dressing mirror standing next to the cabinet, which was a very rare thing, and she ran to the mirror and saw her current self in the candlelight.
In the morning, I was in a hurry to wear the clothes in my hand, and I only had the heart to take a look at it at this moment, on the crescent white placket jacket, embroidered with blooming peach blossoms, tied with a peach blossom skirt at the bottom, and silver tassels hanging under the belt, Xiaowan touched it with great pity, and wore them to work all day, it was really a waste.
She wanted to find out if there were any sturdy and rough clothes, and subconsciously opened the wardrobe, and Xiaowan was stunned.
There are all kinds of new clothes in the wardrobe, cotton, silk and silk, stuffed to the brim, and there is a big fur at the bottom, the snow-white fur is soft and slippery, and all the clothes are the style worn by women, is it ...... It's all hers?
After her stepmother entered the door, Xiao Wan never wore a new dress for more than ten years. Earlier, the people in the village would point fingers at the stepmother and say that she abused her stepdaughter, but the stepmother was spicy, often pulling her ears and pushing her out, and scolded those people with raised eyebrows: "Put your mother's bullshit, you are rare this mourning star, but you take it back to raise?" ”
After a long time, no one cares whether she will be bullied and abused by her stepmother, and starvation and beating have become Xiaowan's daily routine.
Looking at the cabinet full of clothes, and then looking back at everything in the room, she was confused.
The next morning, the sky was bright, Xiaowan came out, she got up early when she was at home, and today she was worried that there were so many people living in the store, and she had to work for half a day for breakfast, and she had to help.
Avoiding the people in the lobby, he quietly touched the kitchen, Uncle Biao was already chopping vegetables, and when he saw Xiao Wanlai, he waved the kitchen knife and said, "Why do you get up so early, hurry up and go to sleep for a while." ”
Xiaowan has slept full, in such a soft bed, no matter how comfortable she sleeps, she feels as if she is lying in the clouds in her dreams, she is full of energy: "Uncle, what can I do for you?" ”
Uncle Biao said, "You go to the well and see what work your aunt has to do, I don't need you here." ”
She responded, turned around, and was happy to find Aunt Zhang, but her head hit her strong chest, which hurt her. When he opened his eyes, it was Ling Chaofeng standing in front of him, he was wearing a dark cyan robe today, and he looked more serious than yesterday.
"If you don't have eyes, what are you running blind?" Ling Chaofeng's eyes were cold, and he looked down at her.
Xiao Wan didn't dare to talk back, rubbed her forehead and stood aside, her thin body rubbed against the wall and rubbed against Ling Chaofeng's edge, and immediately disappeared.
Uncle Biao smiled and said nothing, and Ling Chaofeng said lightly: "The second lady ordered food today, you can watch it." ”
"Heh......" Uncle Biao stuck the kitchen knife on the board and turned around.
Xiaowan helped Aunt Zhang wash the dishes and chopsticks at the back door well, and then had breakfast in front of her, and after working for a long time, the sedan chair of the county magistrate arrived. Lord Sun is a high-ranking official in the capital, they are very attentive, today is to welcome Lord Sun to Baisha Town to inspect it, and the accompanying guards follow most of them, and the store is much cleaner.
After having breakfast with Aunt Zhang, a maidservant girl came to ask for hot water for the second lady, and the order was sent immediately.
Carrying hot water upstairs, she had already divided the room of Mrs. Sun and the second lady, and was just about to knock on the door in front of Yunpeng, when she heard the piercing laughter inside, and then ridiculed: "You hen who can't lay eggs, what kind of score do you put in front of me, and you still want to teach me a lesson?" You don't take a mirror to see what kind of virtue you are, I advise you to be honest and settle down, don't end up, you don't even have leftovers to eat. ”
Xiaowan's hand hung in the air, and she couldn't knock on the door. Suddenly, the door opened, and Mrs. Sun's eyes were red, and at first glance it was Xiaowan, she barely managed to squeeze out a smile, and walked away to her own room.
"Why does it take so long to get a basin of hot water?" The maidservant beside the second lady yelled at Xiao Wan, "Do you have spring water here, our lady only drinks tea made from spring water." ”
The second lady made a pinch of voice: "What are you scaring a little girl for, little girl, what's your name?" ”
Xiaowan didn't want to have anything to do with them, so she put down the hot water and ran away.
Walking downstairs, Ling Chaofeng was standing behind the counter to settle accounts, the two looked at each other, Ling Chaofeng hooked his fingers and asked her to pass.
Xiaowan didn't dare to ignore it, and when she walked in front of her, the man coldly ordered her: "Don't be nosy, the guest's business has nothing to do with the inn." ”
Xiaowan guessed that since Ling Chaofeng and Master Sun seemed to be old friends, he must know a lot of stories, but he was so cold-blooded, of course he wouldn't care about being bullied by the concubine.
And this person obviously explained himself like this, at noon she went back to her room upstairs, but at the corner of the stairs, she saw the second lady and Ling Chaofeng standing together and talking, the bewitching woman was full of laughter, long fingers and bright red nails, almost touching his face.
Ling Chaofeng met his gaze, but he looked indifferent, turned his face and continued to talk and laugh with the second lady, Xiao Wan looked down on him.
After lunch, she was washing dishes by the well, and suddenly there was another person beside her, and a gentle voice said, "Girl, I'll help you." ”
Xiao Wan saw that it was Mrs. Sun, and hurriedly said, "Madam, I can't help it." ”
Mrs. Sun's eyes were no longer red, and she smiled kindly: "Girl, you are not a maid, right?" ”
Xiaowan pursed her lips, not knowing how to respond.
Mrs. Sun said, "You are the lady of the shopkeeper Ling, right?" ”
Xiaowan waved her hand again and again, but before she could explain, Mrs. Sun had rolled up her sleeves and helped her wash the dishes together: "I heard the words of you and Shopkeeper Ling last night, although I don't know what happened, but I know that you need money." Your name is Wan'er, right, I heard Aunt Zhang call you that, I also call you Wan'er, okay? ”
"Madame, feel free to do so."
"Night, how much silver do you want?"
Little late stunned.
Mrs. Sun said, "I will give you as much as you want, but you have to do one thing for me." ”
