Miss Qianjin's life is too leisurely, and she can take a lot of time to worry about trivial things. Miao Zhen was thinking about it in her heart all the time, and she said with a good voice, "Be careful!" "Are you yelling at her?

I scratched my ears and scratched my cheeks, but I didn't come up with a result. Hua Xin saw her lying on the windowsill in a daze, came over with a bag of fried chestnuts, sat cross-legged on the couch and peeled one and handed it to her, "What is the girl just looking at the snow?" Isn't it cold when the windows are open? ”

Miao Zhen retracted his eyes, a little stupid, "The charcoal is burning too much, and the window is open for breath." ”

Eating chestnuts, remembering that Miss Feng Er's letter hadn't been read yet, she ran to the dressing table to take the pressed letter and open it. The letter is Miss Feng Er's usual style, and the parting feelings are hidden in some sarcastic ridicule. Seeing people are angry and sad.

Miaozhen slapped the letterhead on the kang table, "This person is simply scared to death!" Before leaving, there was no good word, and it was still that bitter and mean. ”

Hua Xin was lucky to recognize some words, picked them up and looked at them, holding back a smile, "Don't be annoyed, she is jealous that the girl is better than her, she has been like this all these years, and she will choke the girl as soon as she opens her mouth." Now that everyone is gone, I can't be angry, and I will probably never see each other again in this life. ”

Yixi's words suddenly attracted Miao Zhen's tears the size of two beads, his face was crooked in the crook of his arm, and he remembered Miss Feng Er's kindness again, "I am also jealous that she is the young lady of the official family, and she is more expensive than me." In fact, she is not bad, but love is compared with me, what is the meaning. When she left, I didn't even have a friend to come and go with. ”

The snow was rolling like goose feathers, the sky was overcast, and the house was a little dark. There was a cluster of yellow fire in the smokehouse, burning lonely in the gloom. Miaozhen remembered the scene when her sister Lu Ying came out of the pavilion the year before last, and there was red everywhere in the house, and everyone's faces were full of joy, but she felt that those lanterns and silk cloth were red and lonely and sad.

She redirected her head, looked out the window and sighed.

Hua Xin saw that she was sad, and was busy peeling sweet chestnuts to coax her, "In the future, Uncle An will win the champion, and the girl will be the champion lady, won't you compare her?" ”

The family is used to the empty title of "Mrs. Champion" in private, as if it is a matter of course. Miaozhen was also used to hearing it, and felt that it was already in the bag, so she wiped her tears with a smile, "I can't bear her." Somehow, I feel that the people around me can't stay for a long time. ”

"There is no feast in the world." Hua Xin handed her a yellow chestnut and glanced at the east chamber, "Girl, pay attention to what is in front of you, don't you see that Bai Chi is busy picking out clothes these days." ”

"What do you do with your clothes? She has no clothes to wear? ”

Hua Xin rolled his eyes angrily, "My God, why do you only have an appetite and not a heart?" She heard that Uncle An would come to our house with her uncle's carriage and horse in a few days, and she was anxious to choose a few fancy clothes to wear for him! ”

Miaozhen's tear-stained face froze for a moment, and she tilted her eyes to look at the letter, "Why don't you choose two bright clothes?" ”

Hua Xin was as steady as Mount Tai, and his face did not change, "What am I busy with?" Not to mention that the girl has not yet left the cabinet, even if I follow the girl out in the future, I can't take advantage of the girl's limelight. According to the common etiquette, we have to serve my uncle as a girl, but I am self-aware, a girl is a girl, the master is the master, and the girl can't go beyond the master no matter how much face she gets. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the East Chamber and said with a sour smile: "I really treat myself as a proper bride, and she is all the girl's indulgence." ”

Miao Zhen followed to look at the east chamber, and swept to the outside of the courtyard gate, Liang Gong didn't know where to come back, and was opening the door and entering the low house.

Her gaze stopped there, and the door slammed shut, shaking off the snow on Xiangfei's bamboo. The words that had just gathered in her mind were scattered again, and she said in a scattered manner:

"Don't always quarrel with Bai Chi, you two are the same in my heart, and I treat you as my own sisters. Bai Chi is just a little better to wear, and my heart is not bad. She was bitter enough, her father had already run away, and her mother put her aside, only caring about hurting me. Think about it, if you were her, your heart wouldn't be good. ”

Hua Xin saw that she was blindly protecting Bai Chi, and she was too lazy to talk more, so she buried her head in peeling chestnuts.

"Where did this fried chestnut come from?" She asked.

"Huh?" Hua Xin raised his forehead and looked out the window, "I sent Lianggong to the street to buy it in the evening." ”

Miao Zhen slowly pillowed her head on the window, "You said that he is not delicious, how do you know that there are so many delicious foods?" ”

"He's from the market, so he naturally knows where to search."

Poor streets, Miao Zhen has always only passed by, never integrated. I have also heard those noisy shouts and noises sporadically, and through the curtain of the sedan car, I only feel irritable and noisy. The smoky atmosphere seemed to be hot, but she tried to stretch out a slender arm, but only to catch a few snowflakes of ice stinging her hand.

Liang Gong came from that cold world, and it is unlikely that his internal organs will be hot. So noon made a vow to beat him on the board, which would be unconsciously left behind.

Caught up with Steward Qu who came in in the wind and snow, patted his robe outside and asked the little girl, "Where is the girl?" ”

Miao Zhen heard the voice, and then remembered the ruthlessness of the hair. At this moment, his heart turned into a weak heart, and he hurriedly greeted the general with a smile, "I'm in the house, Grandpa Qu has something to do with me?" ”

"Didn't the girl send someone to call me? I'm going to ask the girl something. ”

Miao Zhen looked down and smiled embarrassedly, "I'll forget what it was." Grandpa Qu sits in the house, roasts the fire and eats a cup of hot tea before going? ”

Speaking to ask someone to serve tea, Steward Qu hurriedly raised his hand and shook his head, "My miss, this is not the time to make a joke, the outside is busy." ”

"It's almost dark, what are you busy with?"

"Your eldest brother Yao has just returned from Suzhou, and he will be busy carrying things. I'll go first. ”

When he came out from here, he knocked on the door of Lianggong's house and instructed, "There are not enough people to unload things at the corner door, so you should also go and help." ”

Liang Gong was about to undress and sleep, so he had to tie his clothes again and follow him to the corner gate. There were more than a dozen lanterns under the door, and the small servants carried boxes in and out, busy with a magnificent scene.

A well-dressed young man approached him and said, "Grandpa, the things you brought back are going to be registered." I'm reading here, who's going to register? ”

This person is Qu Yao, the eldest grandson of the Qu housekeeper, and he is also a slave of the You Mansion, who is in charge of collecting accounts outside. In the past six months, some old debts have been recovered in various counties in Suzhou, and many local specialties have been brought back by the way.

The sky was half-dark, and Steward Qu's hands trembled and his eyes were dazzled, so he pointed to Lianggong, "I remember that you are reading, you come to remember, what you read, and you will record it in the book after you see it, it is not a difficult thing." ”

Qu Yao looked at Lianggong with his eyes, and saw that he was the same age, with handsome bones and a graceful bearing, so he smiled a little appreciatively, "Are you new here?" ”

Liang Gong arched: "The small one is the house that entered in the autumn." ”

"It's weird, I went to Suzhou in the summer. Still read a book? What books have you read? Have you ever read the four books? ”

Lianggong smiled humbly, "I can roughly recognize a few words, but I can't worry about it." ”

Because Qu Yao has also read books, he often thinks that the little people in the house are vulgar, and he does not speculate with them. At that moment, it was rare to see someone who had read a book, so he happily took him as a confidant and led Lianggong forward to inspect the goods.

Seeing a big red gold chest carried over, Liang Gong wanted to open it to take a look. But Qu Yao held his hand and said with a smile: "This shouldn't be checked by us, lift it inside, and have your own master and grandfather look at it." ”

Seeing that he withdrew his hand in a playful manner, Qu Yao did not hide it, "These boxes contain silver. He glanced at him and raised his eyebrows proudly, "A full hundred thousand taels." ”

Liang Gong only felt that the number shook the heavens and the earth, and his heart couldn't stop shaking a few times. The boxes were lifted under their noses, and they blinked their playful eyes, taunting and laughing at his hideous poor bones.

With this money, the You family's qi may not be able to continue. But the farther the You family goes, the farther away the hundreds of taels of silver from the great officials. The future of the fool's dream is even farther away.

His hand holding the pen was a little weak, and he didn't know whether to be discouraged or rejoicing.

Stunned, Qu Yao put away a list and smiled at Liang Gong, "It's all for food, there is no shortage in the house, but it's fresh." ”

Liang Gong smiled and nodded, covering his appearance with a calm bearing, "Our old man and girl are delicious." Brother Qu is really careful and proper. ”

"Hey, be a subordinate, you have to touch some of the master's preferences. I heard that you are following the big girl? ”

Liang Gong glanced up and down at him with a smiling face, and the candle flame reflected a pair of dark eyes with golden light, "When you first arrive, please take care of Brother Qu." ”

Qu Yao likes to be the most humane and crepe tone of this book on weekdays, and he is very temperamental when he speaks, and immediately picked up the tone, "How dare you dare, you and I are both like-minded people, so naturally we have to work together in the same boat." You're not like them, you can't talk and do things, and I'm too lazy to talk to them. ”

"Brother Qu praises falsely." Liang Gong said.

Qu Yao appreciated him more and more, and he had to leak some bottoms, "It's also your luck, the eldest girl has a wide heart, but there are a little or two points that offend her, she just loses her temper at the moment, and forgets it when she falls behind." Again, the eldest girl is spoiled, her hands are scattered, and she has no calculation in the money, no matter how expensive things are, as long as she is happy, she will take them to reward people. You're more clever, and it's more good. ”

Liang Gong thanked him again and again. After a while, the two people became close friends. Going back and forth to the prime day, drinking and talking, it has become more and more to the point of having nothing to talk about.
