The little petite bag of the fourth master of Qingchuan

Chapter 3 Is it a blessing to suffer a loss?

It turned out to be an example.

In this prince's mansion, the women in the backyard are the same as the concubines in the palace, and they have their own rules every month.

Such as food, clothing, money, incense, rouge and gouache.

There are also charcoal fires in winter, things to relieve the heat in summer, and so on.

However, these cases will not reach everyone's hands evenly.

It is often that the drought dies, and the flood dies.

For example, some favored masters are often flattered by the slaves who are in charge of distributing the certificates.

He even robbed those unfavored women of their due share.

For another example, a woman with a slightly higher status in a courtyard—equivalent to the head of the first house in the harem—will also enjoy certain privileges.

These are the default rules.

……

Qinqiuzhai may sound like a "small" courtyard, but it's actually quite big.

"Small" just refers to the women who live here-the status is not valuable enough.

In addition to the most humble concubine, there are two princesses living here: Guo Gege and Bian Gege.

Now, it is Guo Gege who blatantly steals Bian Gege's share.

As for why she dared to be so arrogant, there was also a reason.

The first reason is that Bian Gege is an honest and cowardly character. He never dares to stand up when encountering things, let alone draw the focus of his eyes to himself.

And she has no backing.

If you don't bully such a bun, who will you bully?
The second reason: Guo Gege entered the elder brother's office very early, and he was also in the same group as Song Gege.

This is the old man in the house.

With this level of qualifications, coupled with the fact that Guo Gege hugged Li Fangfujin's thigh before, he is considered to be confident.

So bullying Bian Gege became more and more unscrupulous.

In fact, it wasn't just this time, before that, Guo Gege's servants had already robbed Bian Gege for a long time.

Bian Gege could only swallow his anger.

But this time today, it was too much - not only some money was robbed, but even the clothes were not spared.

Looted everything.

Mother Hai smiled apologetically at Lanzhi: "Our Bian Gege is also a Gege after all! Not half shorter than Guo Gege, it shouldn't be so unseemly, good girl, we all live in the same yard, we have half relatives without relatives, you Just take pity on my old bones, return the case, and make it easy for me to do business."

Lanzhi spat: "I've said it all, it was our gege, your old mother just didn't believe it, she followed me to the routine room, staring at her with fish eyes, so stingy, no joke! "

Seeing that Mother Hai was choked up and speechless, Lanzhi turned around and left with the case she had snatched in her hand.

Mother Hai stretched out her arms and hugged her anxiously: "You can't do it!"

She was in a hurry, so she used more force, the clothes that Lanzhi was holding were pulled, tilted to the side, and fell to the ground in a random manner.

There was a lot of dust.

Lanzhi followed Guo Gege, who was used to being arrogant and domineering, looked at the soiled fabrics all over the floor, got angry, raised her hand and slapped Mother Hai.

"Snapped!"

Ya Shi, who was watching a play in the distance, dropped the melon seeds in her mouth to the ground.

Gu Yaoyao stood there in a daze for three seconds, then pushed away Yashi who was in the way, and walked towards the center of the yard.

……

In the middle of the courtyard, Bian Gege has already walked quickly to Mother Hai, with a pale face, he said to Lanzhi eagerly: "You, you...how can you beat someone?"

Lanzhi didn't have time to speak, but she just felt a blur in front of her eyes.

There was a burning pain on the cheek.

Lan Zhi covered her face, both startled and angry, she took a closer look, and saw that concubine Gu Shi who fell into a fool appeared out of nowhere.

standing in front of me,
Gu Yaoyao's eyes were clear, her expression was innocent, and she happily raised her palm to show her: "Mosquito! Bite you!"

It's midsummer, the weather is hot, and the flowers and trees in the yard are flourishing. It's normal for some small mosquitoes to fly around.

It happened that a mosquito landed on Lanzhi's face just now.

Lanzhi was so angry that she clenched her teeth: ...that idiot!

His chest heaved a few times, Lanzhi calmed down, and felt somewhat guilty and afraid.

She also knew that she was too arrogant for a moment just now—beyond the rules.

Even if Mother Hai is an inconspicuous old woman, she is still a pretty person after all.

The master is still standing here.

As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog.

She is nothing more than Guo Gege's big maid, although Guo Gege will support her, but if things get serious, Lanzhi will definitely have no good fruit to eat.

Thinking of this, Lanzhi just wanted to slip away, but was blocked by Gu Yaoyao.

Gu Yaoyao grabbed Lan Zhi with a smile, and pointed to Ge Ge: "She has something to say, tell you!"

Lanzhi could only turn around and apologize to Bian Gege: "Bian Gege forgive me, this servant is in a hurry..."

This is an admission of cowardice.

Gu Yaoyao turned to look at Bian Gege, and saw Bian Gege standing on the spot with his hands tightly clenched, with a hesitant look on his face, and finally sighed resignedly, and turned his head to one side: " You go!"

She didn't know what to do with Lanzhi.

Are you afraid of offending Guo Gege?

Gu Yaoyao watched from the side and shook her head inwardly—this little sheep's temperament has not been wiped out by people until now.

It is also fortunate.

Lanzhi was sent away, and the servants who were watching the excitement gradually dispersed, Gu Yaoyao sent Bian Gege back to the house.

As soon as he entered the room, Bian Gege sat down and wept.

She is just timid and afraid, but she is not a fool. She also knows that others have bullied her, so she doesn't treat herself as a human being at all, and just blindly abuses her.

Sad.

Who can not feel bad?
The maid Cunxiu bowed her head beside her, she was silent at this moment, she just mechanically took the mud-stained cloth to the back of the house, shook it clean roll by roll, and then washed it.

It seems that he has been used to such submissive grievances with his master.

In the room, Bian Gege shed tears, wiped his cheeks with a handkerchief, smiled wryly, and said to Gu Yaoyao who was sitting next to him: "Anyway, it's summer now, and we don't need thick clothes. I You can still wear your clothes."

"As for the money they robbed, I still have some jewelry from when I entered the house. I secretly entrusted someone to sell it off. It can always last for a while."

Gu Yaoyao interrupted her self-comfort, and stammered: "Sister Bian, they bully people, bad!"

Bian Gege lowered his head, raised his eyes for a while, and mumbled: "Yaoyao, you are still young, you need to know to endure the calm for a while, and take a step back to pass the rain and clear the sky—it is a blessing to suffer."

Gu Yaoyao: ... It's a blessing to suffer a loss!
Whoever wants this blessing will take it.

She doesn't want to.

……

Looking at Bian Gege who was crying silently in front of him, Gu Yaoyao suddenly understood why even Lanzhi, a mere maidservant, dared to beat people and behave wildly in front of Bian Gege.

A person, if you don't even protect your own dignity and respect your own interests, how can others respect you?
Endure the calm for a while, take a step back after the rain and clear the sky-this has a prerequisite.

The more realistic situation is: forbearance for a while does not bring about calm; after taking a step back, it is not the end of the rain.

Especially when facing someone like Guo Gege.
