Xiaohong asked suspiciously, "The girl just came back, why do you want to go out again?" ”

"It's okay, I just remembered that it was time to go see Miss Fu, and I don't know what happened to her?"

Qingwen said casually, "I took a lot of dried tofu from the shop, you can share one point and send some to Daiyu and Sister Bao." People think about us if they have any good things, and we can't forget to return the gift. ”

"Yes, girl." Xiaohong readily agreed.

Qingwen took an unfinished jacket and went out with Jiahui again.

I bought a lot of small and hungry fruits in a dim sum shop, wrapped them in a jacket, wrapped them in a brocade wrapper, and carried them to Fu's house.

Fu Xian was still in the yamen and had not returned, and the porter heard that the master and servant had come to find their girl, so he hesitated: "Our girl is inconvenient now, and it is not suitable to meet guests." ”

As soon as Qingwen made her eyes, Jia Hui immediately handed over a dime of broken silver:

"Uncle, please be accommodating, we are from the Jia family of Rongguo Mansion, and my girl came to see Miss Fu today, but it's not good for us to run in vain."

"The ...... of the Jia family" The porter glanced at the silver in his hand, and then at Qingwen's master and servant, "It's not that the villain won't let you in, it's that the villain can't be the master, I have to report it." ”

"Then you go," Jia Hui grinned, "just tell your housewife that the girl from the Jia family has come to see Miss Fu." ”

The little girl is so smart, and when it is time to bring it out of the background, there is no ambiguity at all.

Mrs. Fu was grounded with Fu Qiufang, and the Fu family could not be left without a director, so Fu tried to let an aunt surnamed Zhang temporarily act as a representative.

When Aunt Zhang heard that the girl from the Jia family was visiting, she was a little apprehensive.

Fu Qian's thoughts, she knew, he wanted to cling to the Jia family, so the people of the Jia family should not be offended, so he immediately asked the porter to invite people in.

Seeing the big package in Qingwen's hand, she smiled flatteringly and asked, "I wonder what the girl is looking for our girl?" But what can a slave ask? ”

"Auntie is polite," Qingwen laughed loudly, opened the package, revealing the jacket inside, "It's just two new clothes, find Miss Fu to ask for advice on embroidery." ”

"Then, let my maid take the girl to our girl's yard."

Aunt Zhang didn't dare not let Qingwen see Fu Qiufang, she was right to do so, even if Fu tried to be at home, she didn't dare not let Qingwen go.

Qingwen thanked her and followed the subordinates arranged by Aunt Zhang to Fu Qiufang's courtyard.

Fu Qiufang's maid Luzhu was wandering anxiously outside the courtyard, and when she saw Qingwen coming, she hurriedly greeted her and said:

"Miss Qing, you're here! The lord confined our girl to the courtyard, and everyone who was supposed to serve in it was kicked out. ”

Qingwen patted the back of her hand gently, signaling that she didn't have to be impatient.

She went up and knocked on the door, and it was a long time before Madame Fu came and opened it.

Qingwen raised her feet and went in, Aunt Zhang's maid was also going to follow, and Luzhu stretched out her hand to stop her: "The master said, except for those who deliver water and food, no one else is allowed to enter the yard, have you forgotten?" ”

The maid was frightened, and lowered her foot again.

Qingwen followed Mrs. Fu into the house, and saw Fu Qiufang sitting on a chair with her shriveled stomach covered, her face as sallow and sallow as Mrs. Fu.

"Sister Fu, I brought you some fruit, try it quickly, can it suit your appetite?" Qingwen pretended not to know the situation, opened the jacket, and took out the snacks inside.

"Miss Qing, Fang'er...... I have been on hunger strike for two days. Mrs. Fu said sadly.

"Sister Fu, why are you so stupid? What about going on a hunger strike, what if you starve yourself? Qingwen glanced at Fu Qiufang with disgust.

"My ruthless brother would rather marry me to a forty or fifty-year-old Shangshu as a concubine than marry me to the son of a merchant, and I will never agree."

Fu Qiufang said resolutely, "If he doesn't agree with my choice of son-in-law one day, I will go on a hunger strike for one day, and if I don't agree for three days, I will go on a hunger strike for three days." Starve me to death, and he won't get anything. ”

"Don't be stupid, do you let your sister-in-law suffer too?" Qingwen said.

"Sister-in-law, I'm the one who has troubled you, you and your brother are soft, you don't have to be locked up here with me." Fu Qiufang said to Mrs. Fu guiltily.

"Fang'er, I said that if I want to help you, I will definitely stand by you, I can't eat if you go on a hunger strike, if you want to die, let the two of us die together, let your brother live happily by himself." Mrs. Fu was also resolute.

"I've really convinced your two sisters-in-law, and I'm really on a hunger strike," Qingwen said with a smile, "I finally brought it in from outside, come and eat a few pieces, and only when you are full will you have the strength to continue the hunger strike." ”

"I don't ......"

Fu Qiufang stubbornly refused, but her stomach, which had not eaten or eaten for two days, screamed angrily.

"Don't be tough, if you just eat it, Master Fu won't know, why bother yourself?"

Qingwen picked up a piece of red bean yam cake and stuffed it into Fu Qiufang's mouth, and said to Mrs. Fu, "Sister-in-law, you also eat, Sister Fu's affairs still need to be handled by you, you can't be hungry." ”

Fu Qiufang was not embarrassed, took the pastry by herself, and ate it one by one.

Seeing this, Mrs. Fu also picked up a piece and chewed it slowly.

Qingwen poured two glasses of water and placed them in front of the two.

"Drink some water first, I've been hungry for two days, and I can't eat too much. Eat a few pieces and hide the rest and eat them when you're hungry. I'll go to Zheng's house again to discuss and think of a way, maybe in a few days, Master Fu will let you out." Qingwen pondered.

really starved Fu Qiufang to death, Fu Xianzhen couldn't get anything, he wouldn't do such a loss-making deal.

Qingwen is a girl with strong executive ability, and after coming out of the Fu family, she went directly to the Zheng family.

……

Fu Yan is going to be annoyed to death these days.

Mrs. Fu voluntarily grounded, Aunt Zhang took care of the housework, and asked him about all trivial and bullshit.

How much silver should be approved for the autumn clothes of the next person, what gifts do the old men of the Sun family have to give for his birthday, when will the rent of the grange be collected, and who is greedy for ink when the big kitchen is empty of two hundred catties of charcoal......

These things had never come to him before, and Mrs. Fu would take care of them clearly.

The concubine has little knowledge, and it is really not good to deal with family affairs.

It's not just family troubles, but there's something even more annoying.

No, Kitchen Manager Li is crying again.

"What's the matter, the girl and the lady still haven't eaten?" Fu Qian asked with a calm face.

"I don't eat, it's the same as the other day, all the food is served in the past, and it is still the same when it is served, and I don't move a bite."

"Okay, I see, you go down."

Steward Li sighed and left, Fu Xian's suppressed anger finally couldn't be suppressed, and he flicked his sleeves and swept the tea bowl on the table to the ground.

With a "bang", the broken porcelain fell everywhere.

"Don't eat, don't eat! If you don't eat and pull down, I don't believe you can carry it for a few days?! ”

He was so fierce that the porter hurried in, looked at his face as black as the bottom of a pot, and asked timidly:

"Master, the Zheng family's master Zheng and son Zheng Rong are visiting, will the master see or not?"
