Chapter 28: Calculation (7)
Late at night, Aunt Guiyu sat in the room, waiting for Jiang Anhe's arrival, the sand in the hourglass of the house gradually sank, and the person still didn't come. The little girl beside her looked up carefully from time to time, and when she saw her tears, her heart softened, and she stood up and wanted to go out again. Aunt Guiyu raised her head and stopped her and said, "Don't inquire about the news again, the housekeeper is strict, if she knows, I will ask you to inquire about the master's affairs in private, and we will all be severely punished tomorrow." ”
The little girl sat back in her place, looked at her master, and had nothing to say all night with her. After dawn, the main courtyard of the Jiang family became lively, and the noisy sound made Aunt Guiyu sober up, and she asked the little girl to fetch water and carefully clean up her makeup. She slowly smeared her puffy eyes, which had been crying all night, with snow water over and over again, until she saw a pair of big eyes in the mercury mirror, only slightly red, and they looked quite melancholy and lovely.
She looked in the mirror, still looking at herself, satisfied with her frozen hands, turned around and asked the little girl to pass the meal into the room. The little girl went out of the room to pass the meal, and saw two women who were cleaning in the yard, and the two of them were doing things, and they were laughing happily in small voices. She hurriedly rushed forward and shook her head at them, her master was in a bad mood this morning. The two women looked at the little girl in surprise, since the fifth lady has been a hundred days later, the old man has not moved, and he will come to his aunt's place for the night this day.
The little girl asked the girl outside the room to quickly bring food into the room, she used some food at will, and went in to serve the master with a tired face. Every aunt in the Jiang family has a portable girl, an out-of-room girl and two rough women, and the girl has only one girl and one rough woman. Aunt Gui Yu was originally born as a girl, and before she was promoted to aunt, she was surrounded by a girl given by Mrs. Jiang.
As soon as Aunt Guiyu was promoted to an aunt, she used the excuse that the girl given by the main mother was now old, and the family needs the main mother to be the master, so she returned the girl and decided to find two new girls. At that time in the Jiang family, no one wanted to follow the old girl, and she didn't want a girl who was old and had a lot of eyes. She chose a young girl to be her carry, and then chose an honest girl to be an outsider, and then the housewife arranged a rough woman.
Gui Yu glanced at the girl who came in to serve, and saw the tired look on her face, she saw her like this, and remembered that when Aunt Yu entered the Jiang family, because Jiang An and Chu treated her like a mountain, sometimes she would even forget the days when she went to the house's room. In the first time, the mistress sat quietly every night, and did not stand up until dawn, when she was by her side.
The mistress has always treated them with affection, and there is no difference between her and the three of her companions in front of the mistress. Before the housewife entered the Jiang family, she quietly mentioned to the four of them that although they were meant to accompany the family at home, she still hoped that their lives would be good. Because of this sentence, the other three people had other ideas.
Prosperous and charming, Jiang Anhe's handsome and talented, she was lost at first sight. Aunt Guiyu knew that she was sent by the Shang family, and after she heard her master's words, her heart moved and calmed down. The Shang family is a scholarly family, and the difference between the wife and the concubine is far away, and she sees it in her eyes. However, the concubine has children, and no matter what, she is better than her subordinates, and there will be someone to serve without worrying about food and clothing.
Jiang An and his wife had a deep relationship in the first few years, and their aunt's side, except for the two old people, did not enter the new people. The two older and dutiful girls beside the master were promised by the master to the housekeeper. And Guiyu saw that there was only the master in the eyes of her aunt at that time, and she gradually died of that heart. It's just that later she entered the second lady's biological mother, and then Aunt Yu came in. Her heart flooded again, and she was careful not to let her three companions see one or two.
The housemother is quick-witted, and she is a girl who has grown up with her since childhood, and she slowly sees her intentions, and gradually treats her only on the surface. Guiyu was completely fascinated by Jiang Anhe's demeanor, and whenever Jiang Anhe came to the main courtyard, she would serve him carefully and skillfully. Jiang Anhe has been in love for a long time, and when he glances at Guiyu's expression, he knows three points. It's just that this is the wife of the wife, although it is for her own room, but the other three have been allowed, and this one is only afraid that the wife has other plans.
Jiang Anhe was worried about his wife's opposition at the beginning, so he kept quiet and let Guiyu behave obediently in front of him. Later, when he saw his wife's expression unchanged, he thought that after he took a concubine, his wife was worried about the status of the family and acquiesced to the girl who was used to fix his favor. For the sake of face, he carried his wife behind his back and slowly began to move his hands and feet on Guiyu. And Guiyu was shy and timid, and in Jiang Anhe's eyes, there was even more fun to steal, one had a heart and the other was intentional, and he was a dew all night.
Mrs. Jiang heard the news from the steward for the first time, and she was angry. If these two people want to succeed, she will not refuse to mention it in front of her, why should the two of them carry people behind their backs and do such a reluctant thing, and let people hear the rumors. Jiang Anhe was happy all night, and in the morning he looked refreshed, came to see his wife, and after mentioning the matter to her lightly, he waved his hand and went out of the courtyard door.
Jiang Anhe left comfortably, leaving Mrs. Jiang sitting firmly in the room, so angry that she couldn't stand up for a long time. When Xiao Jiang's family received the news, they hurried over, helped their master, and said, "It's all shameless women, who have lost the face of their master." "Mrs. Jiang relieved herself, thinking that it was good that she had known about this earlier, otherwise, she had just seen Jiang Anhe's demeanor and calmness, but she was afraid that she would not care about the upbringing that had been honed over the years, and directly scolded 'a pair of dog men and women.'
Mrs. Jiang asked the outside steward to find Guiyu, looked at her as a woman, and only asked: "You still have one last chance, make a choice, do you want to be the wife of the housekeeper, or come in to serve the master?" Guiyu didn't expect it to happen in just one night. These two days were her time to rest, and she listened to the summons of her mother, and her face was panicked.
Gui Yu entered the door and looked at the angry eyes of Xiao Jiang's family, looked up at the anger in the eyes of the master mother, and panicked in her heart, and fell to her knees directly with her feet weak, and she probably didn't dare to put it down. Now when I heard the words of the master, it was like hearing the sound of a fairy, and I suddenly looked up at my master, and saw that she didn't know what to remember, and the expression on her face began to soften, and she just looked at her with a look of pity. She looked at her mistress with a shy and happy face, kowtowed and said, "Master, I am willing to serve you and my uncle for the rest of my life." ”
Mrs. Jiang knelt down with her, her eyes just looked at her quietly, and after a long time, she said in a deep voice, "Okay." I fulfill you and hope you will never regret it. Also, on the day your child is born, I will promote you to an aunt. The four of you followed me to Beijing, and I also thought that you would have a better life in the future. All three of them choose another path, and if you want to take this path, then you will go on in peace. You go down and give your yard, and I'll arrange it too." ”
Guiyu snorted at the master three times, stood up and followed the steward beside the master, and went to his own small courtyard, where he lived for many years. Guiyu has been with Mrs. Jiang for many years, and she understands her heart and understands her kindness, and she will only have superficial affection in the future, and she will use up her heart this time. Their master and servant remained silent, still talking and laughing when they saw it. After Jiang An and Tong Guiyu lingered for a few days, they still remembered the face of their wife, and came into the room from time to time to take care of one or two.
Gui Yu thought about the past while eating, and she did not regret her choice at all. She now has a daughter, and her daughter is the young lady of the Jiang family and the master of all the Jiang family's subordinates. A few years ago, her father was so happy that he praised her for having a mother-in-law's look. Compared to the nerd third lady, her own daughter adds glory to the Jiang family. She is now acting like her sister-in-law, and she has won praise from everyone when she enters the clan study.
