Walking into the Red Mansion starts from the maid

Chapter 18

The ancients did not pay much attention to the marriage of close relatives. It is nothing new for cousins ​​to marry cousins.

What's more, whenever Jia Baoyu was free, he would read and write with Daiyu together.

At first, she didn't think much about it, but that day when Miss Ping'er made Xizi holding her heart towards the two of them, Yunzhu knew that the masters of this mansion, at least for the moment, were happy to see the two get married.

The attacker was stunned for a moment.

The body standing in front of Yunzhu paused for a moment, Yunzhu saw the gap, and crawled out like a loach, standing outside the threshold, just about to pierce Xiren's heart again.

Then I heard the voice of Xiren Mosquito: "If this is really the case, how can Mrs. Wang agree?"

Sighing like a grown-up, Yunzhu slandered in her heart that, as a son of a noble family, if she could not be a prince, to be able to marry the daughter of a late first-rank civil servant was considered a very good marriage.

Although a daughter-in-law of such a background does not have the support of her natal family, most of her natal family's property is in the dowry.There is also the relationship of the old lady, and there is almost no objection from everyone.

What's more, Jia Baoyu obviously likes it very much.

Just seeing Xiren's aggrieved appearance, Yunzhu sighed, this person is really full of stubborn spirit.

So she stopped worrying, turned around and went out, and before she took a few steps with the tea tray in her hand, she saw Qilu in the corridor, looking at her leisurely, Yunzhu rubbed her chin, a little embarrassed, did anyone hear what she said just now?

"Big Sister Qi." She took a few steps forward, stood in front of Qi Xun, saluted, and was a little uncertain about Qi Xun's mind for a while.

After all, she shouldn't have said that to Jia Baoyu in the first place. As a girl who serves tea, how can she have the right to interfere with what the master is going to do?At present, many maidservants in the courtyard followed Jia Baoyu to the next door to make rouge and play around. Hearing the sound of frolicking from across the wall, they hesitated unconsciously.

"She's very thoughtful, don't try to cheat on her." He said this without thinking, but both of them knew who this 'she' was.

Qi Xun paused, saw a copper dragonfly clip on one side of Yunzhu's flat maid bun, and said slowly: "Today, Qin Zhong asked the second master to go out for a drink. If you don't care about it, what if it is made into a fuss?"

The person who made the fuss was naturally not Qin Zhong. Qin Zhong was born in a humble background. Although he had a classmate friendship with Jia Baoyu through Qin Keqing's relationship, he was not a blood relative after all.

What I said is that I am afraid that attackers will take the opportunity to make a fuss.

"No, I'm young." Yun Zhu carried the tea tray and walked leisurely to the tea room with Qi Xiang, she was not worried about the attacker's revenge on herself.

At least for the past two or three years, Xiren would not touch him. Without it, for Xiren, it is safer for Xiren to occupy the vacancy when he is young than to take the vacancy when he is older.

"It's a good thing to be rewarded by the master." Seeing that Yunzhu had an out-of-date golden-red purse hanging on her waist, it didn't look like Yunzhu's, but looked like it was worn by Second Master Bao when he went to school on weekdays.

"Second Master rewarded me with a purse." Following Qi Shang's gaze, Yunzhu remembered the purse at her waist.

Holding her bulging sac, she remained calm on the surface, but she was happy in her heart.

The monthly money and New Year's rewards in the rich family's mansion are all recorded in the book. If one day they are really kicked out, those things will basically be taken back, and only the rewards that are not in the book can really be counted as their own.

Seeing that Yunzhu was happy, Qilu didn't say anything more to spoil the fun, she just smiled lightly and told her to go back quickly and finish her work, and it was almost time for meal.

"Listen to Elder Sister Qi!" Yun Zhu moved back to the tea room briskly after sending Qi Xun away.

The tea left on the table had been emptied, Yunzhu cleaned up the mess, poured a pot of new water, and only then began to unpack the purse with great interest.

The emerald bamboo pattern embroidered with gold thread sprinkled on the red background is exquisite and delicate, and a few stalks of emerald bamboo are lifelike. Nothing else is needed, this purse alone is almost worth her month's money!Such rich and powerful, if there is no old lady doting on him, how can he spend such money like water?

After taking a deep breath, he unwrapped the purse with a calm face, facing the direction of dusk, a burst of golden light came.

Rongguo Mansion is so rich and illustrious, has it reached the point where the young master's rewards are all gold?

"Hey, I heard Qilu say that you won the second master's reward, you're so happy!"

It's Qingwen.

"Sister, don't make fun of me. The master rewards me at will, so I am naturally happy." Seeing Qingwen leaning against the door frame, her squinting eyes were full of teasing, Yunzhu turned the purse upside down calmly, and buckled it against the table.

All the things inside fell out, which really made people happy and confused.

A large handful of new copper coins, about fifty or sixty, mixed with five or six golden melon seeds, and two red gold live rings, one of which even has a ruby ​​embedded in it!

Yunzhu hesitated for a moment.

"This, isn't it too heavy? Do you want to give it back to the second master?" She just walked around the main room and said a few words that made Jia Baoyu happy. This purse is already exquisite and expensive. With so much reward, Yunzhu couldn't stop her heart beating.

Seeing her holding a ruby ​​ring and looking left and right in the setting sun, Qingwen frowned, "Look at you with shallow eyes, aren't these things that the second master usually bestows on you? He rewarded you, and you return it. What do you mean? Put it away, and you can repay him by working harder in the future."

"But this...is too much." Just those six golden melon seeds, plus these two pure gold rings, the degree of pressure will not be less than one or two gold!

She is an honest girl, I am afraid that there is no second such honest person in this courtyard, Qingwen didn't say anything, just found a young girl to sit down by herself, even Yunzhu couldn't bear to look at her gloomy appearance.

"Second Master Bao went next door to accompany Miss Lin to make rouge, why didn't sister go?" Yunzhu put away the copper coins one by one, and asked Qingwen suspiciously.

"In the beginning, Qianxue took the blame for a cup of maple dew tea. Now that the second master is studying, why did he start Rouge again?" Whoever takes the blame, Qingwen doesn't take the blame anyway.

After thinking for a while, he said, "At the moment Xiren is drinking tea with Heping in the side room. She won't go, and neither will I."

Xiren always looks calm in front of outsiders, it's hard for her to be like an old mother at a young age, so she wins over Jia Baoyu and listens to her very much.

Seeing Qingwen's excitement now, Yunzhu laughed dryly, hesitated and said: "Why are you angry with her? Our old lady has always respected the rules. In the future, when the second master gets married and the bride enters the house, there will be no more lawsuits like these."

The affairs of the inner house will be taken over by the bride as soon as she enters the door. No matter how important your maid is, as long as you don't agree with the bride's eyes, it doesn't matter if you are someone who was used by the young master?It's all about staying where it's cool!
Refer to Wang Xifeng next door.

For Yunzhu, whether it is Daiyu or Baochai who enters the door in the future, it is still unknown whether the glory of the Rongguo Mansion will still be, let alone the servants who are attached to the main family.

All of them are fates like floating ducks, "If you want me to say, it's more interesting to save some money and go out and live a life of your own decision behind closed doors!"

Yunzhu loves to brainwash Qingwen. A skilled woman like Qingwen can only play a greater role when she leaves the Rongguo Mansion.

"Your elder sister Qi has instilled in you a clear understanding. Why, after a few days of hard work, your elder sister Qi is the only one to follow?" Qingwen came to the house early, so why didn't she know how vigorous and resolute the second nanny Lian next door was.

At that time, Second Grandma sent away the maid next to Second Master Lian as soon as she entered the door, and she gave Ping'er a face, but she didn't give Ping'er a concubine.

Even Qingwen, who was used to being private, felt that Lian's Second Mistress was too jealous and pungent.

"My sister is used to laughing at me, alas, who told me that I am young and inexperienced, you can laugh at me!"

That night, Yunzhu slept on the Datong bunk, rubbing the golden melon seeds in her hand, touching and touching, feeling all the silver coins one by one, and then reluctantly put the brothers Kong Fang into the toilet space one by one.

Hearing the shallow breathing of the people beside her, she was about to lie down to sleep when she heard the rustling footsteps in the courtyard, the maid on duty was already on duty, who is this?Are you still walking around this late?

He wanted to get up to check, but when he saw a corner of the quilt stuck under Zixiao's body, he stopped thinking. Walking around in the inner courtyard must be people from the courtyard, and it is impossible to be a thief from outside.

When Jia Baoyu got up the next day, Yunzhu entered the room carrying a tray, and saw Xiren dressing Jia Baoyu gently and carefully.

Well, this eldest sister didn't listen to other people's advice at all.

Looking at Jia Baoyu's thoughtful bent, Xiren probably rested in the master's room last night. Jia Baoyu was fully dressed, so he took a sip of the tea in Yunzhu's hand, and said with great interest: "Yesterday I made a good rose paste."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xiren passed Qilu, and Niaoyou Nana pinned a golden hairpin to Jia Baoyu's crown, coughed lightly, "Yes, Miss Bao and Miss Lin also sent something over."

"What did she give?" Jia Baoyu's eyes lit up suddenly, he didn't care about responding to Xiren's tenderness, and trotted towards Lin Daiyu's room.

The people who were about to clean up and send the young master to school saw this scene, and all laughed and dispersed, completely ignoring Xiren's livid face.

Even Tan Yun, who used to follow behind Xiren in the past, followed everyone out of the house at this moment, leaving Xiren holding the gorilla blanket alone in place.

"Sister Xiren, if Second Master Bao misses the time for school, I'm afraid the master will investigate later." Someone shouted anxiously outside the door, with a look of worry that could hardly be concealed.

Jia Zheng was a father who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and he never cared about the little things between these children, but he cared more about Jia Baoyu's study than Mrs. Wang, his own mother.

But Mrs. Wang always listened to her husband, but she was reluctant to speak harshly to Jia Baoyu, so these little maids were the best punching bag.
