68 The Lampmaiden's ill intentions
It's better to be unproductive than to be ignorant and fall into other people's ways, if you are stupid, you will still be wise, what is the matter of being stupid and wise?
Yunzhu is like a mirror in his heart, he is not a smart person.
If you talk about coaxing people to play, she still has some experience. But if she compares with the eighteen exquisite crystal liver subordinates in the inner door, she is far behind.
"A few days ago, Wu Gui's cousin sent me a letter, mentioning that my sister-in-law was going to give birth soon, but I was busy with the lawsuit at that time and didn't have time to spare. It's still early in the morning, so you can walk a few more steps with me and give her a basket of this food. Qingwen laboriously freed up a bamboo basket, picked up one or two of the vegetables and fruits each, patted the hem of her clothes and said briskly, "Finally, I will take you to eat the sugar and oil fruits on the corner." ”
Yun Zhu withdrew her hand from the curtain, knowing that she was talking about her being moved out of Jiang Yunxuan, so she shook her head and said, "I invite you to eat." ”
She was recently promoted to the second class, and in a trance she remembered that she said that it was her birthday in June, Qingwen's slender and smooth fingers rubbed a few times on the basket, as if thinking about something, and nodded after a while: "Listen to you." ”
Qingwen habitually wanted to take care of everything, but the palm of the hand that was used to needlework never exerted strength, and after a while, she had to lean down slightly and call the coachman as if deflated.
The carriage stopped on the edge of the alley, just a few steps away from the house of many officials, and the cramped alley was full of daily miscellaneous items, so I had to get out of the car and walk.
Although it is the periphery of the Lai family's house, this old door cannot be compared with the Lai family on the other side of the street.
The two were about to knock on the door, when they saw many officials poking out from the door, his eyes were clear, his face was ruddy, and he looked surprised: "I was going to invite you to come to the house, but my sister-in-law can't sit still these days, and the house is in chaos." ”
At this time, the hair of the multi-official was neatly combed, and the clothes were also new cotton shirts, and his voice was as old as before, and his face was as usual, but the light red under his eyes set off the exhaustion around him, and after flashing out, he quickly closed the door, locking the mournful cries of the woman inside.
Duoguan took the vegetable basket in Qingwen's hand, squeezed out a smile on his face, and said: "It's just right, your sister-in-law started it in the early hours of this morning, and I thought that I would look for you again when I was born, but you came before you poured out the effort to buy vegetables." ”
The terrible shout at that moment alone made Yun Zhu's heart tremble, and even the figure of getting off the carriage trembled, thinking that it was actually born.
Before the words of the many officials fell, he saw a familiar figure in the carriage behind him, and continued to greet him: "Sister Yunzhu is also here, come in and sit for a while, the woman in the family gives birth, don't be afraid." ”
Just as Yunzhu hesitated, the words of the multi-official called Qingwen to block back.
"She's young and hasn't seen such a scene, so don't call her if it's inconvenient today, just get together another day." Qingwen was shocked, regardless of the fact that she was also an unmarried girl, just seeing the melancholy look of many officials, she knew that there were twists and turns here, so she hurriedly took Yunzhu away, "Sister, you go to the fried goods shop in front and wait for me." ”
Anyway, regardless of Yunzhu, he lifted his skirt and pushed the door in.
"Okay." The sound of the response was thrown far outside the door, and the afterglow of crying echoed in the air.
It started in the early morning, and now it's the middle of the hour, and I haven't been born for more than ten hours, but it's really sinful. Yunzhu shook the goosebumps on her head, exchanged a few words with the coachman, and walked towards the fried goods shop that Qingwen said.
The Lai family's realm restrained her.
The front teeth that I lost here haven't grown yet, and now I feel that my teeth are loosening, so I can't stay here any longer.
Duoguan is only in his early twenties, but in this era, he can be regarded as late marriage and late childbearing. But there is a skill in helping the cook, and there is a sister like Qingwen who takes care of each other, and the sister-in-law is also a person who takes care of the family, and she will still be very busy in the future. Yunzhu smiled unconsciously when she thought of this. She walked along the street, her dull mood as if she had been blown away by the breeze, and she threw the behind her far away, and her steps were unconsciously brisk.
"Boss, a bowl of sugar and butter!" Yunzhu waved his hand, sat down without asking the price, and ordered a bowl of food arrogantly, without it, it was too fragrant.
The fried goods shop said it was a shop, but in fact it was just a fixed stall on the adjacent street, with three or five small tables sparsely placed at the door, and the garrison was an uncle in his early forties, black and short. Yunzhu thought to herself, even if she was a small trader, she seemed to be more comfortable than the tenant farmers in the suburbs.
Becoming a petty trader could be included in her list of future careers.
He neatly pulled the white cotton towel around his neck, padded an open pottery bowl, and held out more than a dozen glutinous rice dumplings soaked in sugar and oil, sprinkled with crushed peanuts and black sesame seeds, and used a small spoon made of bamboo to lightly hook a trace of osmanthus nectar, handed the chopsticks and stepped forward and said: "Guest officer, your sugar and oil fruits are here!" ”
The service was quite thoughtful, Yunzhu was a little embarrassed, raised his eyes and thanked him, and lowered his head and sent a two-finger-sized sugar and oil fruit into his mouth, sweet and fragrant, making people forget their worries.
Yun Zhu held a spoon in her mouth and held chopsticks, and saw a slightly familiar young woman sitting at the table next to her, and saw that the other party glanced at herself from time to time, and wondered in her heart - this person? Have you seen it somewhere?
I sent three or four soft and glutinous sugar and oil fruits one after another, smacked my lips, hesitated, moved to the table with the dishes and chopsticks, smiled and nodded at the woman, and then buried my head and tried to eat again.
I thought to myself, for the sake of my teeth, I would have to gargle my mouth a few more times after eating sweets. Unexpectedly, when the other party saw her nodding, he couldn't suppress a smile on his face, so he simply got up and sat next to Yun Zhu, and whispered, "Is it delicious?" ”
“……”
The woman laughed, greeted the boss, and after a while, she also put down a bowl of sugar and oil fruits in front of her, and saw that Yunzhu didn't talk, so she said from the ripe house: "I have eaten his sugar and oil fruits since I was a child, I dare to say that there is no second one in the capital that does better than Boss Wang." ”
It turned out that the uncle's surname was Wang.
"Something?" Yun Zhu sent away the last sugar oil fruit, laboriously licked the sugar water on his teeth, and asked with a unfriendly face.
"You are the Yunzhu beside Second Master Bao, I know you."
It's a shame that the ancient liars would also engage in backtracking! Yunzhu didn't want to say much to her, so she got up and was about to check out and leave.
"Chenghui, five cents!" Boss Wang smiled, and pointed to the boiled water on the side.
The lamp girl is a discerning person, and when she saw Yunzhu's evasive appearance, she knew that she was being treated as a liar, so she quickly flattered the other party and said: "I'm not a liar, I'm a neighbor of Wu Gui's family, my surname is Zhao, and now I am in Rongguo's mansion for flowers and trees." ”
It turned out to be a colleague of the department next to it.
"It turned out to be Miss Zhao, you eat slowly, I've been out for a long time, I'll be back, let's see you later." Yunzhu drank a bowl of boiled water and made a gesture to leave.
It's just a neighbor, that is, Wu Gui himself and himself are just nodding friends, where can he make friends with other people's neighbors?
Tube of flowers and trees? That's even more unbeatable. What's more, he looks older than himself, according to the character of the people in Jiafu, he can't afford to be early, he is a little girl who is not yet eight years old, if it is not good, people will go to great lengths to meet him?
If there is fraud, go quickly.
"Forehead......" The lamp girl was a little dumbfounded, she had never seen such oil and salt not entering. She has a good color, and the good color of a poor girl is a disaster, not only the brothers and sisters-in-law in the family don't like her, but they do things in Jiafu every day, and there are many men with bad intentions who tease her.
Under the internal and external attacks, she had to find another way out.
