Between the warblers and fishes, most of the moon has been gone. Liang Gong is already familiar with everything in the house, and he probably understands the temper of everyone in this house.

All the subordinates are still kind, they are busy with their own things, and they are not people who like to provoke trouble. This is naturally due to the restraint conditioning of the big butler Qu.

Because of the help of Butler Qu, Mrs. Zeng was saved a lot of trivialities, and she only worried about the relationship between her family and taking care of each family, accounting for various expenses and other things.

Because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, everything is busy nowadays, and there is Master You to entertain in the business field, and the rituals of each family are handled by Mrs. Zeng. Enter. On this day, she received a letter from her own daughter Lu Ying and a salute, so she sent someone to call Miaozhen to the house to reply to the letter.

Miao Zhen came out of the house to freshen up, and heard that Mother Lin was training people in the east wing, thinking that Bai Chi had suffered, and she hurriedly went around to rescue her.

Who knew that when I walked through the door, I saw that it was Lianggong standing there. In the end, there is a difference between men and women, there is a little guy who comes forward to serve Miaozhen, Mother Lin is still not at ease, and when she is sick, she will not relax for a moment and stare at Lianggong, but it is not appropriate to hold him yesterday.

This Lin mother said: "You ate in the kitchen yesterday, did you eat wine?" The eldest girl doesn't like to smell the smell of wine, you often go in and out of this courtyard, how can you smoke her? It's still a trivial matter, if you doze off while eating and drinking, and you don't hear the greeting, what happens, who will take care of it? ”

Liang Gong is not a good drinker, and yesterday evening was not the wine he ate. It was in the kitchen that four or five little servants gathered in one place to drink and eat, and carelessly touched the smell of wine that only touched his clothes when they wet them.

But he didn't argue, just replied "yes". Mother Lin saw that he was not the one who denied and shirked, but she was a little relieved and relaxed her tone, "I'm not the mean and tricky mother-in-law, as long as you take good care of the eldest girl, I don't care about anything else." ”

Miao Zhen hid outside and listened for a while, thinking that this would be Hua Xin Bai Chi was not in the courtyard, she went to the wife's house alone, and when the wife saw that no one was following, she would inevitably blame these people again.

So, when she came out of the door, she came from the house under pretense. When I saw him, I raised my chin and said, "It's just right, I'm going to the wife's house." ”

Liang Gong made a confession and followed her. She sniffed deliberately, but didn't smell any wine. But seeing that he was still wearing the indigo caftan brown of yesterday, he glanced at him sideways, "You didn't take a shower and change your clothes?" ”

"Washed." Liang Gong replied lightly behind him.

"Where did you wash it?"

"I went to the courtyard where the little guys slept outside to get water and wash."

Miaozhen lagged behind and sniffed around him, "You didn't wash with pancreas?" You have to rub it with the pancreas to know if you don't know, so that it will leave a fragrance. ”

Over time, Liang Gong discovered that she was a young lady with a hole in words, and because of this deepening impression, the distance caused by her beauty was dispelled by a few inches. Occasionally, she even thinks she is a fly and mosquito, buzzing endlessly.

She loves to be clean, and she is the only one who is clean when she sees that everyone else is dirty. Two fingers twisted a pinch of material on his shoulder, the fan covered half of his face, and his eyes were full of disgust, "I should change my clothes after taking a bath, and I still put on my dirty clothes, and I was covered with sweat, wouldn't it be washed in vain?" ”

As he spoke, he had already walked into the garden, and Liang Gong saw that there was no one around, so he stepped to the side, his face was slightly impatient, "The little one understands." ”

Miao Zhen saw that he was not happy, but he was happy, as if he had finally forced out the little true face that he had always hidden under his knees. She smiled contemptuously, "You dare to refute my words." ”

Liang Gong glanced at her, "The little one doesn't dare." ”

"Then how can you put on a face for me?"

Liang Gong immediately grinned a mouthful of white teeth and shook it at the sun, "I guess the girl is wrong, the little one has always been like this." Sometimes if you don't laugh, you're thinking about things and thinking about them. ”

Because of his tall stature and face to face, Miao Zhen suddenly felt a little oppressed. She was a little frightened for a moment, and then she thought about it, it really shouldn't be, what kind of thing is he? He glanced at him and took a few steps forward.

Liang Gong took two steps against her, and walked leisurely behind her. After walking for a while, he suddenly said calmly, "This garment was washed at night, and the weather was big, so it was picked on a bamboo branch and dried overnight." ”

No wonder, I still smell the fragrance of soap horn on him. When Miao Zhen was admitting his mistake with this explanation, he forgave him in his heart, and asked slowly: "What are you thinking?" ”

"What do you think?"

Miao Zhen looked back coldly, "You just said, sometimes you are thinking about things, what are you thinking?" Want to read something? ”

Liang Gong crooked his mouth and laughed in the sun, "What else do people like me want to study?" It's a little reassuring to be at home. ”

This smile is just like the autumn mood in the garden, although it is an autumn tiger, it is not summer after all. The sky is so high that the wind is also holding the breath of red and green. But from his casual tone, Miao Zhen still heard a hint of sullen injustice.

She couldn't help but take a closer look at him, and walked forward with pity. After hesitating, he asked, "Who are some of the people in your family?" ”

Liang Gong said truthfully: "My parents died early, and I have an aunt who has bad eyes and is often sick on the bed. I've been in the house for more than half a month, and I don't know what happened to her. ”

"There's no one at home to take care of her anymore?"

"When I left, I asked two neighbors to take care of me."

Miao Zhen stood still, turned her head and beckoned to him. Liang Gong thought that she was going to make a mistake again, and approached impatiently.

But I heard her say, "I tell you, today is the day of the monthly money." Our family has never dragged down anyone's money, and it is rare that you can receive most of the silver today. You can take the money and go home and see. ”

Hearing this, he was stunned, and his heart seemed to have a trickle of water flowing past, cleansing away the impetuous and uneven air that he had just mentioned. He didn't know how to answer for a while, and was silent.

The silence was embarrassing, Miao Zhen really hated his uncontrollable kindness at the moment, and he was obviously determined to reveal his true face by making trouble, but who knew that he was stupid again.

She thought about it, and when she wanted to find something unpleasant, she would perfunctory it.

Lianggong's mouth was a little dry from the sun, and he took a sip of it to see her, and he was wary of this impropriety. I had to raise my eyebrows and smile, "There are no such rules, the old lady didn't allow me to leave." ”

Miaozhen opened his mouth and said, "The old lady didn't allow it, I promised it." I don't need you for these two days, you just have to go home and rest for a day. As he spoke, he glanced down at his eyes, and thought of a reason to hide this kindness, "What's more, you promised me some time ago that you would buy salt-and-pepper stuffed fruit for me to eat." After dragging on these days, are you perfunctory? ”

Lianggong took advantage of the situation, "The small 10,000 don't dare." Thank you, girl, for making it happen. ”

"Who has the leisure to fulfill you? I remember to eat the fruit. Miao Zhen snorted and went on her own.

When she walked to Mrs. Zeng's house, she heard that she was called to reply to the letter, so she hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Zeng and asked, "Lu Ying has a letter?" Did you ask me? ”

Mrs. Zeng only listened to Steward Qu finish calculating the expenses everywhere, and the abacus beads are still ringing in her ears at this moment, where can she still withstand the noise of Miaozhen. "Ouch, ouch," he went to fetch the letter and handed it to Miaozhen, "Look for yourself, your sister's handwriting is better than at home." ”

Miao Zhen couldn't wait to unfold it and see, the letter showed Lu Ying Daoming's situation in her husband's house, but everything was fine. asked about his mother's family again, and specially asked Miaozhen and said, "Is my sister safe, how many meals do you eat every day, and how many nights do you sleep every day?" ”

Seeing this section, Miao Zhen soaked her eyes with tears, holding the letter and muttering on the chair, "Lu Ying said that everything is good over there, presumably because she is afraid that we will be worried, and she only reports good news and not bad news." Mother, I don't believe it, when the new daughter-in-law enters the door, where can everything be smooth? Let's write back to her and ask her to come home with Kou Li after the New Year's Festival this year. ”

Mrs. Zeng passed pen and ink up, put it on the kang table, called her over to sit, and said with a smile: "Her mother-in-law is your aunt, and her father-in-law is your uncle, will she still treat her harshly?" Besides, their family's silk business is still supported by your father's lead and capital. Who has no conscience like this? ”

This aunt's family lives far away in Huzhou, although they are relatives, they are far away. Miao Zhen remembered that she was a sister, and she also wanted to ask her to go back to her parents' house to take a look, so she carried a pen and argued with his wife, "It's not difficult to ask my daughter and son-in-law to go back to my parents' house after the holiday, why not?" Mother doesn't want to be a sister? ”

As a mother-in-law, she didn't want to, so she promised to put a little bit on the paper, "Then you can write that your father is not in good health, and ask them to come back and take a look." ”

Miao Zhen tilted her head and smiled, "Rely on your father again?" ”

"It's not that I want to rely on him, I was supposed to rely on the entertainment these days, eating and drinking, ignoring the doctor's instructions. He ran up three times last night, didn't he die by himself? ”

Miao Zhen finished writing the letter according to these words, and when Mrs. Zeng read it and handed it to the person who came to give the gift, she still didn't leave.

There were more people talking back and forth in the house, and the daughters-in-law led the mothers-in-law who sent the prayer posts outside to visit, and there was an endless stream for a while. In the gap, Mrs. Zeng saw that Miaozhen was still sitting at that end, and she wondered in her heart, she was the most annoying and talkative, why didn't she leave after listening to the polite words that had been exchanged for most of the day?

After entertaining a few passers-by, Mrs. Zeng called for herbal tea melons and fruits, and asked, "Why are you still sitting here?" It's strange today, I can sit still, I hear these social words on weekdays, and I have run away early. ”

Miaozhen remembered the words she had promised to Lianggong, afraid that she would be busy and would not be able to take care of the monthly payment, so she deliberately reminded, "Mother is very busy today, I will sit and see if there is anything I can help." ”

Mrs. Zeng was very useful, and smiled at her former daughter-in-law with a crooked face, "Our eldest lady has grown up, and she has to learn to do housework." Turning his head and feeling disgusted, "It's all done, you have to help, wait for tomorrow." ”

"Nothing else? Mother think again. ”

"What's going on there?"

Miaozhen smiled and came to this end, "There is one more important matter, release the monthly money." Huaxin that girl, I was thinking about it for the first two days. ”

Mrs. Zeng couldn't help but laugh, "What is she thinking about?" There is no mother, and she got the monthly money, but she didn't give it to her uncle to gamble. ”

"Her uncle said to save it for her." Hua Xin's uncle is also on an errand in the You family, but he is running errands outside. Other people's housework is really out of control, just urging through the origin of the flower letter.

Mrs. Zeng didn't doubt it, and said with her skirt played: "Tell those people in your house to go to the manager's room to get it, I will hook this account to Steward Qu after lunch." ”

Miao Zhen got the news and went out, Mrs. Zeng looked at her and turned out of the screen door, with a smile on her face, she sighed, "This girl, I don't know the difficulties at home." ”

Came to talk to the ex-daughter-in-law: "The girl is a young lady, where does she know how to settle accounts?" I only know that I want to eat and clothe, so I open my mouth. In the past two years, it has been thanks to his wife's delicate plan to maintain this family decently inside and out. ”

"It's best if she doesn't understand, let's be happy, don't worry about following us adults. At present, we are just waiting for another entry, preparing her dowry, and sending her out of the cabinet richly, so we will have less to worry about. ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Zeng casually closed the account book at hand and smiled reluctantly, "I can only do this, my lord is difficult outside, and business has become more and more difficult in recent years." There is no fixed number in the officialdom. In exchange for each day, this one is not easy to offend, and that one must be considered. Just took them through, and they were dismissed and exempted, but in the past few years, there has been no stable backer. ”

After saying this, he seemed to be relieved, stepped out of the screen door, leaned on the door and looked into the courtyard. Miao Zhen ran away early, but there were a few cold yellow leaves in the courtyard that swept with the wind, and the sun couldn't shine on his body, so the wind had some coolness that changed from season to season.
