Chapter 33: Reckless

Huihui was also a little anxious when she heard Mama's words, after all, they couldn't go out, so they couldn't bring a message to let Xiangsui come back first, and sighed unconsciously: "It would be good if my brother was at home, and he could send someone to find Xiangsui and come back first, even if it was a few days, it would be okay to let her go to her house after my aunt left." ”

Mama Li can't, after all, she just went back once, if she goes back again, it will be a bit eye-catching, although she walked through the small door of the back street, and she also had a little friendship with Ruan's mother who guarded the door, but if she went out twice in a month, it would make Ruan's mother embarrassed, but thinking of Ruan's mother, she didn't feel that her eyes lit up, and she smiled: "This is a way, miss, don't worry, when Ruan's mother is on duty in the afternoon, I will go to her for help, maybe it will be useful, their family lives in the back street of Fu, and it is quite convenient to enter and exit." ”

"Mama, Miss, I'm back." Huihui listened to Mama's words, her eyes lit up, and when she was about to say something, she didn't want the taro man to arrive before she saw the sound, so she had to stop talking and look at the door with Mama.

didn't let them wait any longer, the taro stepped over, saw that the young lady and the grandmother were looking at her, and felt a burst of pride in her heart, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I did a good job, those two girls were very scared when they saw that they were late, and they didn't doubt it at all. ”

Seeing her so embarrassed, Huihui and Mama Li were comfortable and funny at the same time, Mama Li glared at the taro who was getting the ambition, and said: "This is over, don't talk about it in the future, don't arouse suspicion, by the way, the mother in the kitchen can boil the hot water?" If you have it, you go and bring some hot water, the young lady hasn't washed up yet. ”

Seeing that Miss was still loose in her hair, she knew that she hadn't washed it, so she nodded hurriedly and said, "Well, the hot water in the kitchen is already available, I'll go and bring some here, and I'll send some to Mama's house, you hurry up and wash it too, it's really inelegant for you to do this." ”

Mama Li might as well take this girl with her as she spoke, and said angrily: "Okay, this shows that you can, hurry up and I'll go with you, save you to carry water alone, and I'll clean it up by the way, so I don't have to look like it." So saying, she got up, and was about to go out, she knew that the young lady did not like to be served.

Huihui naturally wished that Mama would go with the taro, she was most afraid of being served by people to wash her face and rinse her mouth, how to make it feel awkward, or to do it herself, so she smiled and said: "Well, it's better to go with Mama, this hot water is still quite heavy, this spike is not there, and it is still a little difficult to carry the taro alone, if you want me to say, it is better to hand over this work to the rough mothers in the future, after all, they are used to doing heavy work every day, and this idea is just their piggybacking." ”

Seeing that Miss mentioned this again today, Mama Li knew that she was distressed that they were working their own, and after thinking about it, it would not be a problem to let the rough mothers carry water to the ear chamber, so she nodded and said, "Okay, Mama knows what you mean, and she will pay attention in the future, you can rest assured." After speaking, he pulled the taro who was stunned on the side and went out.

Huihui looked at the back of the two of them walking out and smiled, Mama seemed to have changed a little, no matter what she said before, Mama would not change the habit she had developed for many years, always thinking about doing everything herself, and now she finally let go, so that's right! If you don't have to be too careful, others will suffer you if you are cheap, and you will be tired if you are too careful.

After getting up early, Mama Li sent Shu'er and Honghua to the big kitchen to deliver dishes and chopsticks, and then took the taro that was about to pack up the acacia flowers to the main room of the young lady.

Huihui knew that there must be something wrong with Mama getting up early today to let the taro call someone, and Mama must have come to her to talk about it after breakfast, so she didn't go to the study to read, and just took Xiu Huo and waited in the hall.

As soon as Mama Li and Taro came in, they saw the young lady sitting on the couch chair doing needlework, and knew that they were waiting for them, but they all smiled, and their own young lady was exquisite! Mama Li took the lead and said: "You don't have to do this early in the morning, you don't have to be tired, it's hot and people are easy to sweat, don't do needlework, it's better to do it in autumn." ”

Huihui smiled and said disapprerovingly: "It's okay, I'm not tired, it's not interesting to sit dry, besides, it's okay, it's not hot, it's just that I'm not easy to sweat, okay, don't say it, Mama sit down quickly." As he spoke, he dropped the plain purse that was embroidered in his hand.

If this is usually Mama Li will pick up the work embroidered by Miss to take a look at it and comment on it, but now the matter is urgent, she does not dare to delay, you must know that although it is a little distance from the big kitchen, it will not take much time, she has to hurry up and say something, otherwise it will be inconvenient for Shu'er and Honghua to come back, so she didn't say much, so she quickly sat down next to Miss.

Xiangtaro knew that something was strange, and she obediently stood in front of the young lady and her grandmother, just blocking the view that could be seen from outside. Being looked at by Mama, Xiangtaro trembled unconsciously, like a puppy that had been praised by the owner, she raised her head shyly, and Huihui on the side of it held back a smile.

Mama Li waited for everyone to settle down, and without a moment's delay, she directly took out the things wrapped in the embroidered handkerchief that she had just put in her pocket, and carefully placed them on the high table in front of the couch.

Her behavior made Huihui and Xiangtaro very puzzled, they originally thought that Mama had something to explain, but they didn't want Mama to come out with a bag of things, and subconsciously both of them were a little vigilant, thinking that this thing must not be a good thing.

Mama Li agreed with the actions of the two of them, and she didn't dare to be careless about this thing, so she carefully and slowly opened the embroidered handkerchief that wrapped the things, revealing the paper bag inside.

Looking at this thing, the two people who have been holding their breath showed their original appearance, knowing that these things were obtained by the safflower from the eldest lady, but how did they get to the hands of the grandmother all of a sudden, this is very strange, you must know that the grandmother came back yesterday and they just said that this thing is at a loss, and it is in the hands of the grandmother at this time, isn't it weird.

Mama Li knew the doubts of these two people, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with being a thief yesterday, so she smiled and said: "This thing I took from Honghua, although it doesn't look like a particularly poisonous thing, but it's definitely not a good thing, although I know several poisons, but I really don't know what this is, Miss reads a lot of books, see if you can know?" Ay! If the eldest young master was at home, things would be much easier. ”

Huihui and Taro were stunned by Mama's words, although they knew that Mama must have used some means to touch the saffron in their room yesterday, but they didn't want to delve into it, so they tacitly threw away this thought and looked at the powder on the high table together.

Taro is indeed as Mama said, I don't know these powders, although Huihui has read a lot of books, but I haven't read the poison scripture or anything, and she is a little embarrassed about this powder, but she looks at these powders, although ordinary people can't smell any special smell, but her nose is very sensitive, no one knows this, or she found it by chance, so this time she smelled these powders that were already light and could not be lighter, and knew that this thing was some kind of powder ground from flowers, but she couldn't remember what it was for a while.

Mama Li saw Huihui looking at the powder inexplicably, she became a little uncertain from the initial hope, and she didn't feel anxious, if no one knew what it was, didn't she steal it in vain, so she couldn't help but ask: "Miss!" You don't know either? How good is that? I don't think it's poisonous, so I wonder what kind of flowers and grass it will be, how can it be good now? ”

was reminded by Mama Li, Huihui didn't feel a flash of inspiration, and was busy preparing to lower her head and get closer to smell it, not wanting her to scare Mama Li by this move, so she hurriedly grabbed Huihui, who was about to bend over, with a calm face, and said: "Miss, what are you going to do, but you don't dare to get so close, the reason why I took it out to show you is because I have preliminarily determined that there will be no hindrance to staying away from it, but I didn't dare to try it, I can't say that this breath can suck the powder into the nose and mouth, how is this good, You must know that although safflower is not a poison, it is certainly not a good thing. ”

The taro was also stunned by the lady's sudden action just now, and the young lady was pulled by the grandmother, she looked at the young lady with fear, and blamed: "The young lady is really reckless this time, if the young lady is not vigilant enough, you will be poisoned if you can't say that the young lady, this must not scare us to death!" Next time, don't do this, even if you try to tie up the red flower and offend the eldest lady, I don't want to let the young lady get into danger. ”

Huihui also knew that she was indeed reckless just now, and she couldn't do it next time, so she hurriedly begged for mercy from the angry taro and the very scared grandma: "It's me who is wrong, next time I don't dare, grandma and taro will spare me, in fact, the reason why I wanted to bow my head just now and take a serious look is because I see that these powders are very similar to a kind of hay powder, so I want to take a closer look." Somehow, she didn't say that she could smell the powder, which had a little floral scent.

Seeing that she herself looked frightened, Mama could only sigh, Miss is still a child after all, and she is a little reckless, and she will have to grind slowly in the future! She knew very well in her heart that these things were not a day's work, and she could only let them go today, and the most important thing at present was to figure out these tricky powders first, so she thought about it, she also relieved her spirit, frowned, and said: "Miss remember it next time, but don't be like this today, I was really scared to death just now, you must know that there are millions of harmful things in this world, and you don't have to have real poison to harm people." ”
