Walking into the Red Mansion starts from the maid

Yunzhu was actually worried about how to reconcile with Fangguan, but now that he bowed his head before seeing the other party, he did it smoothly.

Fangguan changed his chirping look, bit his lip and took the broom and bamboo blades from Yunzhu's hand, but his voice was still hard, "Why are you sweeping on such a hot day? I'll do it!"

Yunzhu snorted.

The lotus root officer and the chess officer were very flexible, and they stepped forward like ants carrying food, pushing Yunzhu under the shade of the tree.Liu Fangguan kept asking behind you why you were laughing, you are not allowed to laugh!

"Sister Xiaoyun, please ignore her."

"That's right, she's always been like this."

The two children talked to each other, holding Yunzhu like a double act.

Today, Fang Guan was acting foolishly. After Baoyu persuaded her, she actually figured it out. She just looked at her godmother's usual behavior and thought that this master would be gone if she was gone.I went back and asked everyone to persuade me. After thinking about it carefully, I realized that I had done something wrong.

After asking them to analyze it, even Fangguan himself said that Yunzhu was not bad to her, and the others noticed it. Who couldn't tell what kind of temperament there was in this courtyard?But there are only a few good people around.

The older one can't get along, the younger one looks like he's about to run away now, and several officials seem to be in a hurry...

In Yunzhu's view, this kind of mentality is like... He is still a child after all. He knows how to give in, but he can't lose face. That's why many 'rescues' came.Seeing the children busy cleaning the yard in the distance, she sighed helplessly.

"Why are you all here?"

"Fang Guan knows she was wrong. She shouldn't waste food." Ou Guan said carefully.

Although they were born in poverty, they had never lived a single hard life. How could they learn to be thrifty and frugal when they met such a lenient master like Jia Baoyu?After realizing that others are angry, you also know how to reflect on your own mistakes. This is already a great improvement.

Yunzhu took a deep breath and looked at the dazed expressions of the little girls. She felt that her eyes were getting wet. She didn't blame her for being a teacher, she just felt sad after foreseeing the future of the carrot heads.

As if unintentionally, he raised his head and grabbed a leaf from the treetop, forced back the heat in his eyes, and smiled at a few anxious girls, "It doesn't matter, you know what you did wrong, just change it in the future. But I’m not angry, don’t worry.”

Thinking that the rhetoric about frugality being a virtue was not appropriate for this wealthy family, she just said vaguely, "I'm going out in a few days, will you guys go?"

Some things are better taught by words than by example.

Yingchun's marriage was settled, and I don't know how Jia Baoyu and Feng Ziying came together. After inviting the official media several times, they settled on a family named Chen.

The man's surname was Chen, with the character Yu in his name. He was going to participate in the Qiu Wei ceremony next year.Chen Yu's father has just filled the vacancy of Yizhou governor. He will be promoted to the fifth rank and will leave Beijing to take office next year.

In Jia Baoyu's words, if Chen Yu could not be on the list in Qiu Wei, he would definitely go to Yizhou with his parents.

Yizhou is a vast area with sparsely populated areas, miasma is pervasive all year round, and there are no big families living there.Mrs. Chen now wants to find a daughter-in-law in the capital. Firstly, she will not lose contact with the capital, and secondly, she can know some details...

The conditions were put on the table. Chen Yuben had a good life and a simple family. Even if she went to Yizhou with her and stayed with her for three to five years, the good life would still last for a long time.

Therefore, there are many people in Beijing who want to extend an olive branch.

Yingchun is always introverted and seldom talkative. Such a family is simply the best choice.Daiyu was satisfied with what she heard, and Xiu Shu and Baochai got a definite answer later. The two jade felt that the matter was done well, and they communicated with the old lady in private. Only then did they suppress their reluctance. Jia pardoned the couple.

"What? Are you going to Yizhou with your family? I don't agree!" It could be sold for 5000 taels, but now it's just a passing thing. How can Jia She be willing to let go.

Yunzhu didn't know the specific reason for the quarrel. She only knew that Qixie told her that day, "Baoyu has accomplished something that the old lady is very satisfied with. He is very happy. Now that autumn is coming, he asked me to give you a holiday one by one. Go Go to Tianqi Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings."

I am praying for Chen Yu High School so that Yingchun does not have to follow the Chen family to Yizhou.

Since the Zhen family's carriage entered Jia's house, Mrs. Wang's illness suddenly recovered.Not only can he eat and sleep, he can even take care of the house.

Seeing everyone murmuring privately, Zhou Rui's family simply announced a happy event, "My wife said that those who sincerely go to the nunnery to pray for Baoyu's autumn can get half of the incense money."

Miaoyu was not happy after hearing this, and said that it would be better not to pray for such a utilitarian person, and then slammed the door of Guancui Temple.

Yunzhu was extremely happy. She could go out and get subsidies. It was the best of both worlds.

She led three officials, Fang Guan, Ou Guan, Qi Guan, each of them paid half of the money from the accounting room. "Those who want to leave the house can come with me. Those who don't want to leave the house can just take the money and go back. The Cuicui Temple in the house is It’s a shame to go, but if you go to Luxue Temple to add incense, you can still give me an explanation for this half-money.”

Since we mentioned praying, as long as we express our feelings in front of the incense table, it will count.

The three officials came here specifically to please Yunzhu, so naturally they would not go back home, but all agreed to follow him out.

When worshiping gods and praying for blessings, it is important to be sincere and spiritual. Bathing and changing clothes are naturally indispensable.

The four of them got up early and had already finished dressing up at dawn. They had changed into fresh clothes and were ready to go out the back door, where the carriage that had been packed long ago was waiting there.

"Tianqi Temple is right next to the city. It must be early for us to finish offering incense. Do you want to take a stroll in the city?" Several officials looked bright. Shopping has been the only way to capture girls throughout the ages. Eight out of ten Jiudu liked it very much.

But Yun Zhu had a bad idea in her heart. When she got off the bus, she did not forget to give the coachman a red envelope. After agreeing to meet on the street of Zhao Sanjia before the sun went down, she took several officials to the temple.

Several people were standing in front of the temple. There were many weeds growing wildly under the wall in front of the door, and they obviously couldn't be taken care of.

Seeing this, Fangguan took the lead and sighed, "I thought that the temple next to the city gate would always be more popular because of its convenience, but I didn't expect it to be so sloppy."

"Should we change to another one?" The two officials asked in a low voice as this seemed to be ineffective.

Another person was about to leave the city. Hearing that there were refugees stationed outside the city, Yunzhu took the three children with him and privately refused to take risks. "It doesn't matter, the god of gods is not in the high-loft space. If you are sincere, you will be successful."

It's just that sincerity is a bit expensive. One stick of incense costs two hundred coins, and only half of it is lost.All four of them felt a little sad. Once this person started saving money, no matter how much he took in, it was too little, and no matter how much he paid out, it was too much!

If Mrs. Wang hadn't sent someone to follow her, Yunzhu would have wanted to put the incense back and kowtow!I would have known better to pray in the Grand View Garden.

"Several donors, we are breaking the fast today, can we accumulate some merit?" Xiao Dao, a round-headed boy, was waiting at the door. As soon as the four of them came out, they presented a red rope that was said to have been illuminated, and also promoted it in his mouth. canteen.

Breaking the fast means serving vegetarian meals to others, and accumulating merit means spending money to eat vegetarian meals.

"Do you want to eat?" Yunzhu couldn't say no for a moment. After all, everyone went out with an empty stomach. Now that the sun has climbed to the treetops, there is a sense of hunger in the belly.Seeing the three officials looking at her, Yunzhu asked what kind of vegetarian dishes they had.After all, Jia's family is extremely exquisite in food. Vegetarian dishes may not be enough to make many people spend money.If it doesn’t taste good, it’s better to go into the city and eat at a roadside stall.

The sugar-oiled fruit is delicious.

The trail introduced a series of poria, frost, water chestnut, powder, fresh lotus root slices and tender lotus seeds.

Several people's eyes lit up, these are all new side dishes, and what they eat is fresh and original.

Seeing that several people were interested, Xiaodao took advantage of the victory and pursued him, "Only one hundred coins!"

"Walk."

Yunzhu took the three officials and left the Tianqi Temple without looking back. What kind of gold can be used to make vegetarian dishes, and a hundred coins?What a fool.

"We can afford a hundred coins. Why doesn't Master eat it? Why don't I treat Master to eat? I should... I should apologize to Master..." Fangguan couldn't understand. One hundred coins wasn't much, so why did Yunzhu listen to this? He turned around and left. Sister-in-law Liu in the kitchen said that an egg costs [-] yuan.

Is it expensive to eat less than three eggs in one meal?The remaining two officials also looked puzzled.

Yunzhu didn't say anything, but only led the three little ones into the city, looking around for something. After a while, she hurriedly picked up the three officials and stood in front of a candy and fruit shop.

The old man selling the oil fruit hunched over and carefully wiped his palms before kneading each piece of dough into shape and sliding it into the pot. The sweet aroma of rolling and rolling mixed with the sweet scent of osmanthus spread everywhere.

Pointing to the stall with her tender finger, Yunzhu asked the three officials, "Guess how much it will cost to eat all you want with this fruit?"

The three officials looked at each other, really frightened by Yunzhu's sullen face.

It was already close to lunch time, and the fruit shop was bustling with business, accompanied by an endless stream of diners. With the sound of coins falling into the bag, the old man's face almost turned into a wrinkled smile.

"At least... fifty, no, seventy cents, right?" Ou Guan was the youngest. She stared intently at the golden sugar-oiled fruit, swallowed, and gave the answer first.

The chess official nodded and said that he thought it would cost sixty or seventy cents.

Looking at Fangguan again, all she could think about at this time was what Aunt Liu said about eggs costing forty cents each. This is a snack that is both sugar and oil. It can't be less valuable than eggs, right?
"At least fifty cents!" Fangguan said firmly.

Yunzhu understands that for these children who grew up in greenhouses, food will be refreshed regularly on the stove. Fat chickens and ducks will inevitably grow either crispy or crispy. In short, except for vegetables and fruits, everything is cooked. It looks like you can just pick it off and eat it.

"Old man, here are four bowls of sweet and oily fruits. Let's eat them right here!" After saying that, she brushed off the ashes on the stool and said in front of the three officials, "This meal will be on my head." , I’ll treat you to it.”

My wife has allocated half a pound of funding, and I won’t spend it until it’s in vain.

Yunzhu is no longer the poor little girl she used to be. She sells prescriptions one after another and has saved a family fortune of a thousand taels.Of course, half of this comes from the sponsorship of Ms. Lin Hongyu’s father, who comes from a wealthy family.

The fruit seller was immediately happy when he saw a few people sitting down.

The old man laughed heartily, and hurriedly scooped up the fruits and put them on the table, "The children are out to play, right? Old man, all these fruits are sold, and they only cost seventy or eighty yuan, hahahaha."

"How much is that?" Ou Guan pursed his lips and spoke very innocently.

These wealthy families might have servants guarding them nearby. The old man did not lie, he stretched out his hand with a smile and said, "Chenghui, seven cents a bowl!"

"It's more expensive than a year ago." Yunzhu said keenly.

Three officials were petrified on the spot. For seven cents, this bowl of fruit was really not as expensive as an egg!This...how could this happen?
"Hahaha, the girl really understands the people's sentiments. I'm afraid my family hasn't told me that floods are rampant this year, food prices have soared, and how much rice will be flooded before it can be filled. Will there be a harvest next year? How much? The harvest is unpredictable!"

The old man's brows were filled with gloomy color, and he looked up to the sky with a sigh. The golden sun shone on the tarpaulin, and then fell dotted on his face, covering the whole place with sadness. "Old man, I can still do this job in the future." It doesn’t matter if we can’t do it. If the price of this food continues to rise, we can only close the stall and go home.”

Yunzhu counted 28 copper coins and handed them over, then added two more to round it out, "Please give us another bowl of water, my father-in-law. We have been walking all morning to quench our thirst."

Two more pennies will cost several bowls of water.Seeing the old man turning around happily, the three officials were startled, and the house sent the concierge casually. No one with more than ten or twenty cents would inevitably talk behind his back.

Seeing the innocent looks of the little girls, Yunzhu couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, "How is it? Is a hundred coins a lot?"

There were so many that one could eat more than a dozen bowls of sugar-oiled fruits. When he thought about the incense he had just finished, he threw out two hundred coins per person, and Fangguan almost took a breath.

No wonder Yunzhu never likes to go out, because he has to pay a lot of rewards when he comes in and out, which is heartbreaking.

The three of them changed their excitement when they arrived, and all held their wallets with their heads down. They were servants, but they were not stable servants. They were bought to fill the landscape of the Grand View Garden, and they were not essentially the same as the animals in the Grand View Garden. No difference.

The fierce and bleak reality hit her forehead, and she bid farewell to the prices in the Duke's Mansion for a short time. When she saw the real world at first sight, not to mention them, even Yunzhu was in a daze.

The dignitaries gathered in the capital, and the refugees were not allowed to enter the city.

If it wasn't for safety reasons, Yunzhu would have really wanted to take them out of the city to have a look at those poor people who gave porridge to rich families for three meals a day, so that Fangguan could ask himself whether he could still make rice cakes and smash them. Bird behavior.

But now the heat looks okay.

I remembered Shi and the coachman's instructions, so I said to the three officials, "I have something to say to my family. After that, how about we go watch a shadow puppet show? Then wait for the coachman to pick us up and take us back home."

The three nodded without any objection.However, Yunzhu couldn't help but think too much. She just stayed at Zhao San's place during the holidays. If she brought three outsiders to the house on weekdays, the situation would be a bit embarrassing.

After all, she is not Zhao San's real sister.

But if she doesn't go, Zhao San is a kind girl. She regards herself as a support in her heart. If she draws too clear a line, she will get angry.

As I was on my way, an old woman poked her head into the roadside and promoted the things in the basket, "Girl, buy some eggs. The chickens fed by your own food are delicious, and they only cost seven cents each."

Yunzhu looked back at Fangguan and seemed to understand her surprise. She smiled and agreed, "Okay, put ten eggs in it for me."

Seven cents, seven cents!Isn’t it true that the food you eat in your house are eggs laid by a golden rooster? !
There seemed to be a dark cloud covering Fangguan's head.
