Chapter 11: The Master (2)
Wen Zhu, who lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, suddenly burst into laughter, and when he looked back, he saw that ingots and silver were held down by four servants, taking off their shoes and socks, and two other stewards had a feather duster in their hands, where they were scolding their feet.
The two girls smiled back and forth, and the silver bell-like laughter contrasted sharply with the silence around them.
Seeing Wen Zhu's surprised face, Wen Xiaomei took the initiative to explain to her: "This method of sassy feet is the method that the eldest sister came up with when she was housekeeper, and no girl can survive it." ”
Wen Zhu was full of emotion, and the Wen family Jurchen was so handsome, and he sincerely admired: "The eldest sister is really a wonderful person!" ”
Wen Xiaomei's face was full of admiration for the Wen family's daughter: "The eldest sister was in charge of the family back then, and at the beginning, many stewards bullied her at a young age, and the eldest sister directly killed the chief steward at that time, and the Wen Fu family came up." His eyes swept over the Wen Fu family, and the Wen Fu family trembled, and almost knelt down again.
Wen Xiaomei smiled lightly, and continued: "Later, I sold a few girls to the priest's shop, and then the order was forbidden, and all the guests who came to our house thought they had entered the barracks." ”
Wen Zhu suddenly realized, it was really a thunderbolt method, and he was famous, seeing the second lady next to him, he suddenly remembered that Li Ma had mentioned that the eldest lady and the second lady were both from the second lady, and there must be a mother and a daughter, the eldest lady of Wenfu was dressed in a red shirt, holding a horse whip, and the glorious image of the bright light was fixed in Wen Zhu's mind.
But she heard the voices of ingots and silver gradually hoarse, her face was full of tears of laughter, silver was a little younger, she couldn't stand it anymore, she shouted heartbreakingly: "I said, I said everything." ”
Wen Xiaomei nodded slightly, the executioner stopped, and the four servant women who held them down also stepped aside. Yuan Bao struggled to get up and stood in front of Yinzi: "It's all slaves and maids who are talkative, and they have nothing to do with Yinzi's sister, she only listens to the slaves and maids." ”
Yinzi wiped the tears on his face and grabbed the sleeve of the ingot: "It's clear that I relayed it to my sister after hearing it." ”
Wen Xiaomei frowned and asked, "No matter who said it, you just need to tell me where you heard it." ”
Yuan Bao and Yinzi glanced at each other, but saw that the Zhan family rushed out, stretched out her arms like a hen protecting a calf, stopped Yuan Bao and Yinzi behind her, and shouted: "It's all said by the old slave, the old slave was tied up by the third lady, and he held a grudge, so these two girls spread these rumors." His expression was resolute, and he looked at death like a strong man who was about to die.
Yuan Bao and Yinzi grabbed one of Zhanjia's arms and cried: "Mother~~~"
Wen Zhu looked at the farce in front of him, only to feel that he was like an outsider, looking at the joys, sorrows and sorrows of the people on the stage, but all kinds of emotions could not be conveyed to his heart.
Gently pushed the tea cup in his hand outward, and pushed it out...... "bang", there was silence, Wen Zhu stared coldly at the mother and daughter of the Zhan family, but asked Wen Xiaomei softly: "Is there another courtyard at home?" ”
Wen Xiaomei didn't know what she meant by this, and nodded: "There are several courtyards at home, and the nearest one is in Jinling." ”
Wen Zhu knew this, a faint smile appeared on his face, and said, "It's okay to send this Zhan's mother-in-law to Jinling Courtyard?" ”
Wen Xiaomei's eyebrows immediately furrowed: "Sister is too gentle, such a punishment is too light." ”
Wen Zhu casually glanced at the mother and daughter, and said indifferently: "What is more tragic in the world than the separation of mother and daughter?" What's more, without the old man's protection, the chances of these two maids making mistakes will increase a lot. ”
Hearing this, the Zhan family raised his head, his eyes shot a devouring light, and stared at Wen Zhu fiercely, as if he wanted to lust her blood and swallow her flesh, Wen Zhu smiled against her, "Don't force me to sell your two good daughters into the Qinglou." ”
Zhanjia shuddered, lowered her head, and didn't dare to make any moves, and her two daughters also stopped and leaned against her, as if this was the only way to stay standing.
Not wanting to look at them again, he waved his hand, and his own servant dragged them down. At this time, Fang remembered that the second lady was still present, and turned his head to look, only to see the second lady's face full of sadness, remorse, and annoyance, and all kinds of emotions, I don't know what the past I remembered, and she was in a daze.
Wen Zhu and Wen Xiaomei glanced at each other, Wen Xiaomei coughed, the second lady woke up like a dream, Wen Xiaomei said: "My daughter is punished like this, do you think it's okay?" ”
The second lady had not yet recovered from all her emotions, shook her head slightly, and without saying a word, she staggered away, and was full of spirit when she did not come back.
It was already dark, and Wen Zhu said, "My sister might as well dine with me." Wen Xiaomei smiled: "I'm really hungry, so I'm going to bother my sister." ”
The two of them were satisfied. Fortune and treasure on the two flower tea, is made of hawthorn, red dates, wolfberry and a little lotus leaves, the most is to consume.
Wen Xiaomei took a sip of tea and said, "It's Tanabata in the future, and the eldest sister and second sister will come back then." ”
Wen Zhu was taken aback: "Tanabata? ”
Wen Xiaomei smiled: "Yes! There are only two official days in the year when the daughter who gets married, one is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and the other is the Tanabata Festival. ”
Jinbao next to him combed his double bun hair, smiled happily, and interjected: "Qixi Festival is the day when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in the sky meet." ”
Wen Zhu smiled and asked, "Isn't it a magpie to build a bridge for them to meet each other?" ”
Jin Bao nodded violently, and even the always steady fortune was excited: "Yes, yes, this is what Miss told us." ”
Wen Xiaomei said happily: "Sister, don't you remember?" ”
Wen Zhu waved his hand, "Hehe, I just think of some things occasionally, and most of them still don't remember." ”
Wen Xiaomei smiled lightly: "But it doesn't matter, my sister is much stronger than before." ”
Wen Zhu was afraid that she would continue to ask, so he hurriedly changed the topic: "Seeing that you are so happy, is there anything to play on Qixi Festival?" ”
Jinbao happily replied: "There is a competition of Qiqiao Niang in the house, and I will go to the grape trellis at night to listen to the whispers of the Cowherd and Weaver Girl." ”
Zhaocai added on the side: "Tangram is a competition of girls in the house, each person makes a pastry and a needlework, and the winner will not only be called Tangram, but the master will also reward a golden melon seed." ”
Jinbao licked his lips, "Eun, the mille-feuille rose cake made by Sister Zhaocai is delicious." ”
As he was talking, he heard Wen Fu's family ask outside, "Is Miss Fifth here?" ”
Jinbao lifted the curtain, and the Wen rich family gave a blessing to the two young ladies and said, "I just received the letter, and the eldest lady will go home tomorrow." I want to ask the girl what is the arrangement? ”
