My name is Biyue, and I am Grandma Zhu's maid. Because of following Grandma Zhu, Su Yun and I didn't suffer a little sin after we were defeated in Jiafu.

1. Quiet and peaceful Daoxiang Village

Originally, I was a very lively person, and I just envied those maids elsewhere on weekdays. If you want to say lively, the first one is Yihong Courtyard, where there are many people, Baoyu treats people well, even if it is a good person, I still remember that year our grandmother's handkerchief fell there, early in the morning, he sent me to find.

I knew very well that our grandmother was a widow, and that this veil was a private thing to carry with me, and I must not lose it, so I hurriedly agreed. When I entered the house, I saw Baoyu wearing a gray squirrel jacket, the bedding in the house had not yet been folded, and several girls' coats were not worn. Na Qingwen only wore a green courtyard silk jacket, a red coat and red nightshoes, draped her hair, and rode on Fang Guan. Musk Moon is a red silk bandeau and wears an old coat, where she grabs Fang Guan's ribs. Fang Guan was lying on the kang on his back, wearing a tight body with flowers, red pants and green socks, kicking his feet around, laughing breathlessly.

Baoyu stepped forward and said with a smile: "Two big ones bully one small, wait for me to help." As he spoke, he also went to bed and slapped Qingwen. Qingwen was itchy, laughed and hurriedly left Fang Guan, and grabbed Baoyu. Fang Guan took advantage of the situation and pressed Qingwen down again, grabbing her under the ribs. Although the attacker didn't play, he laughed on the side and said, "It's frozen carefully."

I saw Xiao Yan laughing on the side and looked at the four of them wrapped in one place for a while, so I also smiled and said: "Grandma forgot a handkerchief here last night, I don't know if it can be here" Xiao Yan said: "Yes, yes, yes, I picked it up in the ground, I don't know which one's, so I washed it out and dried, and it hasn't dried yet." I saw the four of them rolling around, and said, "It's lively here, and I get up early in the morning and get up in one place." Baoyu smiled: "There are a lot of people there, why aren't you stubborn" I said: "Our grandmother is not stubborn, and she also took the two aunts and Miss Qin into the house." Now that Miss Qin has gone with the old lady again, she is even more lonely. The two aunts have passed this year, and they will go next winter, and they will be even more lonely. Look at Miss Bao, a Xiangling went out, and it was so much deserted that she left a cloud girl alone. “

As he was talking, he saw Xiangyun send Cui Wei away again and said, "Please go out and read the good poems quickly." Baoyu listened to it and hurriedly asked: "Good poems there" Cui Wei smiled and said: "The girls are all on the Qinfang Pavilion, you will know when you go." Baoyu listened and hurriedly went to freshen up. I took my own handkerchief and went back to Daoxiang Village without mentioning it.

When I gave the handkerchief to my grandmother, I handed in the errand, and my grandmother breathed a sigh of relief. Over there, Brother Lan had already freshened up, and he was alone quietly reading and writing. Grandma had nothing to do, so she stayed by Lan Ge'er's side to do her work. Recently, my grandmother said that Brother Lan is getting older, and it is not enough to just study, and she should practice archery when she is free. Nalan Ge'er followed the master to practice, and sometimes shot deer in the garden. Our grandmother was delighted to see it.

Second, the young widowed grandmother

Speaking of which, our grandmother's family background is good, she was the eldest lady of the family, although she can't be as talented as the girls in the house, but she has also read books, but the lord of the family thinks that "women are virtuous if they are not talented", so they never asked grandma to put her mind on reading and writing poetry, only to knit female red.

That's the case, grandma also became the president of Baoyu and the girls' poetry club, grandma said that although she is not good at writing, the evaluation is the fairest. No, Baoyu and the girls surrounded Miss Lin into our Daoxiang Village, asking grandma to see some peach blossom poems.

A while ago, because Lian's second grandmother was sick, our grandmother and the third girl were not idle to take care of housework, and then there was the New Year's holiday, and there were many miscellaneous things, and the poetry club of the old year was not mentioned. Now everyone is taking Miss Lin's peach blossom poems to see and praise, and our grandmother is proposing to change the "Begonia Society" to "Peach Blossom Society", and Miss Lin is the owner, and it is agreed that the next day will be in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion to compose a poem from the Society. I saw my grandmother rejoicing, and I was even more happy. Unexpectedly, just in time for the birthday of the third girl, the sisters had to accompany the old lady and his wife to joke for a day, so it was changed to the fifth day of the new year.

But who expected, the master's letter arrived, saying that he would go to Beijing and go home in June and July. It's okay for others, but Baoyu is most afraid that the old man will check his homework, even if he has the old lady to protect his head, it is useless. So this poetry club didn't even mention it. Speaking of which, this Baoyu is also not angry, if he has half of our Lan Ge'er's hard work, why is this? An uncle is not as good as a little nephew, and he is also a shameful person.

Our grandmother is also a really hard-working person, if the uncle is alive, where will he be so sad? Our grandmother is a young lady from a family, dignified in character, excellent in temperament, hearted and charitable, and married to an uncle, if the uncle is alive, why not a housekeeper grandmother? It's just that the uncle died young, our family rules are big, the widow and grandmother are not allowed to take care of things, and only hand over the girls to her to teach the truth and learn to do needlework.

Second Grandma Lian was originally the niece of his wife, and she married the eldest master's son Second Master Lian, which originally had nothing to do with us. But because the old lady favored her, she asked her to come over and gave it to the housekeeper here. In this regard, our grandmother has nothing to say, she is not used to arguing with the world, she is only kind to others, whether it is a subordinate or a master, no one says that she is not a word.

But behind the scenes, I will inevitably be upset for our grandmother: seriously, our grandmother is the daughter-in-law of the wife, and Brother Lan is the grandson of the wife, but because of a treasure jade, the two of them are compared. The old lady loves Baoyu very much, and Brother Lan is still young, so she inevitably ignores this great-grandson, but the wife only has Baoyu in her eyes, and even her own grandson is just a face-saving child.

Poor Brother Lan doesn't speak much at a young age, and he reads and writes all day long, but he is a very painful good child. But although he did not speak, he had a plan in his heart. That Mid-Autumn Festival, at the family banquet, our grandmother asked Brother Lan why he didn't see him. Grandma had to laugh and say, "He said that the master didn't call him, so he refused to come." "For a while, everyone said that he was born with a strange heart, but I saw it really, this brother understood it in his heart, knowing that he had lost his father, and he had to be strong, and others didn't call him, so he refused to come forward, and he would definitely fight for our grandmother in the future.

3. The two concubines who fight openly and secretly

Our grandmother is light on weekdays, and she doesn't even apply fat powder. It's a pity that she is also a young woman, and she is as beautiful as Lian's second grandmother, but she can't dress up. Grandma Zhen in Dongfu came to our house that day, and after washing her face but there was no fat powder, Su Yun took her grandmother's makeup and her own rouge powder, and said with a smile: "Our grandmother is missing this." Grandma doesn't feel dirty, it's mine, I can use some. The grandmother said, "If I don't have it, you should go to the girls and get it." How can you blatantly come up with yours? Fortunately, it was her, if it was someone else, wouldn't it be annoying! Grandma Zhen smiled: "What's the matter. Since I came here, who hasn't made it, and today suddenly I feel dirty again? ”

Grandma Zhen has a good temperament, and she can talk to our grandmother, not as hard as Grandma Lian. This grandmother Zhen, although she is also Mrs. Zhen, the housekeeper grandmother in the East Mansion, can't be the master, just because she is Uncle Zhen's house-filling, and her family background is ordinary. Lian's second grandmother didn't take her seriously, but our grandmother didn't care, so it was good for the two of them.

Having said that, when the second grandmother Lian was housekeeping, she was infinitely beautiful, who had it in her eyes? That year, because of the poetry club, our grandmother took Baoyu and the girls to ask her for silver, and she half-truthfully asked our grandmother to add money to play with her sister-in-law, and said a crooked reason: "You have ten taels of silver a month, twice as much as us, and the old lady and the wife also said that you are 'widowed and unemployed', pitiful, not enough, and there is a boy, who has added ten taels of silver, and the old lady and Mrs. Ping; and give you the land of the garden, and every man shall take rent; At the end of the year, you are the top and the best. There are no ten of your mothers, masters, and slaves, and they still eat and wear among the big officials. All of them were four or five hundred pieces of silver. At this time, you will take out one or two hundred taels a year to play with them, how many years? They're out of the house tomorrow, can't you still pay for it? ”

She said it lightly, but who doesn't know that she used the monthly money from the top and bottom of the house to lend money? Although our grandmother was honest, she was also angered by her that time, but she didn't bring it out on her face, but only smiled: "Listen, I said a word, and he said two cars of scoundrels!" is really a mud-legged single, and he is good at making careful calculations and breaking gold in two. You are a thing, you lost and still asked you to be a young lady in the family of a poet and scholar, and you are married like this, and you are still like this. If you want to be born in a poor family, you will be a little girl, and you don't know how to do it! The whole world has told you to calculate! ”

That's not all, our grandmother is biased about her tie a day in advance. That day was the second grandmother's birthday, because the old lady loved her, she learned from the little family to make a part of the birthday with her, and let Grandma Zhen Zhang Luo, who was out of the limelight for a while. But how can there be such a good thing in the world that one person has taken possession?

On that day, the second master of Lian, who did not grow up, had an affair with Bao Er's family in his own house, but was broken by the second grandmother. It's just a matter of making everyone know about it for a while, but somehow, it came to peace. Ping'er was originally the companion girl she brought from home, serving her since she was a child, and she was loyal to her. was originally to envelop the second master and forced Miss Ping to be a person in the house, but because she was jealous, the two of them were not together all year round. Now that he has been beaten for no reason, who is not pitiful when he sees it? It's hard for her to be such a good girl, our grandmother loves her the most in her heart, so she complained for her that day and blocked the mouth of the second grandmother. The second grandmother didn't want to do anything better, so she had to prevaricate.

Grandma loves Ping'er, and it's true. She always suffers from the fact that she doesn't have such an arm by her side, the uncle went early, and there were two or three people in the house first, but because the uncle died, she couldn't keep it. Su Yun and I were both picked up to serve grandma later, and the maids who came over to marry grandma had already gone and scattered. Grandma often said that it didn't have to delay people. Those of us who are newly picked, although we are not very old, but my grandmother is charitable, easy to get along with, and she is also at ease. Otherwise, Su Yun would not dare to openly take out his fat powder to Grandma Zhen.

Fourth, the end of orphans and widows

Originally, the second grandmother Lian was sick, and the wives had something to do to enter the palace, so they handed over the family affairs to the grandmother, the third girl and the treasure girl. Miss Bao is a relative, although she gives advice, in the end, she is separated by a layer and refuses to come out. Our grandmother is a widow, and she is also benevolent and charitable, and she doesn't want to say much, but the third girl is a righteous person and has the ability, and since she "took office", she has done several big things.

Not to mention anything else, she specially used Baoyu and Lian's second grandmother as a felling, and refuted several things, big and small, I also heard what Ping'er and the attacker said. There is another thing, even our grandmother brought it, that is, Baoyu, Brother Huan and our Brother Lan in school that eight taels of tea and snacks a year, the three girls said that it was a waste of overlapping, and they actually died.

Naturally, our grandmother would not object to it in person, but she carried someone, and her grandmother never said anything. Su Yun and I heard from the outside that Aunt Zhao was angry. Thinking about Aunt Zhao's monthly money for a month, these eight taels of silver are not a small amount of income, and they went away all of a sudden, and they don't hate it. But Baoyu didn't point to the eight taels of silver, although our grandmother had the pity of the old lady and wife, and the monthly money was also rich, and she was calm in her hands, but the eight taels of silver were lost in vain, and it was also a loss. But my grandmother told us that the three girls were as they were, and there was no need to say anything.

There is a saying that "there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky", we have always envied the liveliness of the Yihong Courtyard, but we did not expect that one day, the Yihong Courtyard will become a gloomy place. I don't know if Qingwen and the others made a big mistake and were kicked out by their wives.

The fourth son and Fang Guan are just that, Qingwen was originally an old man, and the old lady gave Baoyu an envoy, but it ended up the same way, I can't figure it out. Our grandmother didn't care, but that day Grandma Zhen came to our house and was distracted for a long time, and it turned out that she had hit a wall at the fourth girl. After a while, the three girls also came, and they were very angry about the copying. Since then, the situation in the house has been worse day by day. Our grandmother only guarded Brother Lan, and didn't pay attention to anything else, until that day when he entered the second gate, Brother Lan was reluctant to drop the book in his hand!

Even though the house was raided, our grandmother was not greatly offended. Not to mention that grandma's father, who was the son of the country and the priest of wine, was a great official, that is, our grandma, a young widow and an innocent woman, what is the sin? Because my grandmother was not negligent, she didn't copy her Daoxiang Village. These people with our grandmother are really blessed people.

Later, the Grand View Garden was sealed, and our grandmother moved out to rent a house to live, although there was a mother's family who was willing to take care of her, but my grandmother was strong and refused to rely on her mother's family very much. Life was naturally a little tighter than in the past, and my grandmother sent Su Yun away, because she was two years older than me. The very small ones that could be sent were also sent, and the parents were really sold, and the grandmother took them in if they had nowhere to go to. I am not a child, my parents and brothers are outside, and my grandmother allowed me to let me go out in two years, and reward me for my own convenience. I am happy and I am more dedicated to serving my grandmother.

Brother Lan is getting older day by day, and he has reached the age of gaining fame. Grandma spared no effort, just for Brother Lan to get ahead, because it is not what it used to be, although grandma has some savings, in the end it is limited. After the fall of Jiafu, everyone was in danger, and grandma had nothing to say except sighing. Until Brother Lan was admitted to the exam, he earned a phoenix crown for his grandmother, and grandma cried and laughed for a while that night. I knew my grandmother's suffering over the years, and I cried and laughed with her. After a short time, Brother Lan was elected to be an official, and his grandmother's lifelong wish had been fulfilled, and it was the time to be satisfied.

I don't think that day, there was an uninvited guest - who are you? It turned out to be Grandma Liu. Grandma Liu is older than before, and her body is still tough. Grandma was very surprised to see her, but she didn't expect that the purpose of Grandma Liu's trip was to be a Qiao girl for Grandma Lian's second grandmother.

The second master of Lian was convicted and didn't know where he was exiled, the second grandmother of Lian died a desolate death after being divorced, and this Qiao girl was said to have been sold by Brother Rong and her uncle Wang Ren! Grandma Liu didn't know where to learn about Sister Qiao's whereabouts, and ransomed her back from Fireworks Alley.

Grandma Liu came to our grandmother in order to entrust Sister Qiao to her grandmother so that she could marry a good family in the future. But our grandmother had a hard time. The second grandmother Lian did a lot of mean things before her death, and the matter of Miss Qiao was also in an uproar for a while. If our grandmother wants to take her in, she will have to worry about her future marriage. Makeup is one thing, and the reputation is even more important, grandma has been kind to people all her life, and she is a thrifty woman, and this reputation has to be considered. Helpless, Grandma Liu saw that her grandmother refused to take her in, so she had to give up. That Sister Qiao, let's stay at her house.

Within two years, my grandmother let me out. My parents were happy and made a home for me. Over the years, I have also accumulated some things in the deep house compound, and I have learned to raise my eyebrows and low my eyes, and my parents are in charge of marrying me into a small business family, and I am willing to do it.

It was only not long after I got married that I heard that Brother Lan died violently! When Suyun told me the news, I couldn't help but be stunned. Su Yun also shed tears and said, "What is this called, you say." Our grandmother's life is too bitter, right? Han worked hard to bring up Brother Lan, and now that he is an official, seeing that he wants to marry a wife and have children, and reorganize the family business, who will hope to ......" I couldn't say a word.

Later, we always wanted to make an appointment to go to my grandmother's place to see and comfort her, but we didn't dare, and I didn't know what to say if I went. After that, Su Yun already had a son and a daughter, and I gave birth to a son in my first child, and I became more and more distracted. Gradually, there was no news of grandma.
