Poor children

Chapter 48 Who is the master?

一
When Chunya and the fourth lady came out of the house, they found that Baozhen was angry in the courtyard and had not gone to take a bath. Just as the fourth lady was about to open her mouth to speak, Chunya pulled her back. The two found a secluded place, as if they were talking behind someone's back. It seems like, but actually I just want to tell Baozhen
"Fourth aunt, do you know why my mother's skin is so white and smooth?" Chunya said while winking at the fourth lady to ask her to cooperate.

"Oh, oh! I don't know, but why do you think that is?"

"My mother, every time you take a bath, you have to use half a bucket of hot water and half a bucket of milk. The milk must be fresh that day and sprinkled with fresh rose petals. But you have to know that rose petals are rare this month. It's just that the milk bath without the petals lost its fragrance after bathing, so my mother asked my grandfather to find fresh petals. It happened that my mother was playing cards here today, and the seventh grandmother was a card fanatic. She said she would be back before dinner, just wait and see, she will not leave until dawn, my mother may not be able to take this milk bath today."

"Oh! It's a pity that those milk and flower petals are going to be wasted in vain? What a pity, what a pity." The fourth lady lamented, "How about you and I also have a luxury today?"

"Ah!" Chun Ya said, "Okay! Anyway, my mother's bathtub is big enough. Today I will take a bath with my fourth aunt."

Baozhen was very moved when she heard the two of them talk about the milk bath in the courtyard. She never imagined that the third lady lived such a luxurious life. If she wanted this in normal times, she wouldn't be able to get it. But today, if she was just Chunya, maybe she would She can also enjoy the feeling of this milk bath

"What are you two muttering here? What milk bath?" Baozhen went around behind the tree and stood in front of the two of them.
Chunya immediately looked flustered, "No, I didn't say anything about milk bath. I'm a little hungry, so I asked my fourth aunt if she wanted to drink milk."

"Don't try to fool me by telling me that you don't have what you have. I clearly heard that you wanted to bathe in milk. Wouldn't it be a waste if just you two use that? Your skin won't be smooth no matter what you use to soak it in. Why don't you let it go? Come clubbing for me”

"But we are also ordered to come out to bathe, so we must also bathe." The fourth lady arrived

"You can just go to my room and use my bucket. You go and prepare it now. When you are ready, come and call me. Then I will take the milk bath." Baozhen took the bath without them talking. The matter is settled

Chunya had no choice but to drag the fourth lady back to prepare. After a stick of incense, the tubs on both sides were filled with water, so Chunya came over to ask Baozhen to come over.

In the Baozhen House, the fourth lady and the second lady changed their clothes and took a bath and soaked in the hot water. The fourth lady didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Chunhulu. At this time, she dismissed the waiter and wanted to ask.

Chunya soaked in the hot water and was very satisfied. "Oh! If she invited me to take a bath in her room, I would never come. I am afraid that I would bring back a lot of lice without washing them. But today I I really want to come here willingly, even if I have lice.”

"Now there are only two of us left. Please tell me carefully what ingredients you added to that bucket of bath water?" The fourth lady has lost her patience.
"It's not a big deal. Tiedan'er gave me a diamondback snake that I kept raising but couldn't bear to use. Today I gave her an advantage."

"You just want her to bathe with the snake and throw it into her bucket. Why do you have to go to such trouble and waste a lot of milk and roses?" asked the fourth lady.
"Throw it directly into her bucket. Isn't it obviously aimed at her? Now the snake is in my mother's bathtub. Even if it hurts her, it can only be an accidental injury. Besides, I didn't listen to my mother about the milk bath. No need, she will enjoy it sooner rather than later, and she may have to pick out a few lice. Tell me, will my mother be angry if she finds out about me?" Chunya kept scooping water with a wooden spoon. "My mother will never listen to explanations when she is angry. She forced me to prepare the milk bath for her. Just wait and see the show."

The fourth lady stared at her blankly for a long time before she spoke, "Why do I suddenly feel that I don't know you a little bit today? In this mansion, you have been fighting with each other for so many years, and after a long time of fighting, it turns out that you are a master of the middle class. I am glad that you and I are two I'm still a friend, if not, I don't know if I will die in the hands of that little vegetable snake of yours." "What are you talking about? That little vegetable snake is not poisonous and doesn't bite. If you really want to call her If you die, I will put a piece of bamboo leaf green." Chunya arrived

In the woodshed, Pao'er placed incense on the table and a plate of pastries made by her newbie. She sat there alone in a daze for who knows how long until Tiedan'er opened the door and came in.
"I've been looking for you for a long time, and you are here."

"You're so awesome that you can find yourself here." Paoer arrived.
"Lai Bao said that you will come here to hang out for half a day when New Year's Eve comes." Tie Dan'er handed her a hand-warming stove.
"I was born in this room, and my mother also died in this room. You said how ridiculous things in this world are. A lot of things must have happened in this room that day, and I was also there. Here, I don’t know anything.”

Tie Daner sat down beside her, "What do you know when you are just born?"

"Brother, you had a mother when you were a child. Can you tell me what it's like to be with your mother?"

"It's good when I'm good, but I was very naughty at that time. My mother also beat me when I disobeyed."

The pauper looked at him and said, "It would be nice to have my mother give me a few slaps! I don't know what kind of person my mother is, what she looks like, and whether her temper is good or not. Many people in the kitchen know her, but they all know her." They don’t dare to mention her to me. I used to ask, but I don’t ask anymore. Whenever I mention my mother to them, it’s like killing them. Now if it wasn’t to scare them, I won’t mention it anymore. I’ll probably do it again. Over the years, I don’t want to ask anymore. As they get older and older, they gradually forget about my mother. Anyway, when you think about your mother, there is still a shadow in your heart. I am thinking about my mother. There was not even a shadow of me when I was there. I really want to know what my mother looks like."

Tiedan'er felt very sad when she heard these words. He knew that it was not easy for a poor child to grow up. She had a strong personality, was stubborn, and refused to bend down to others, so she really suffered a lot. , she lost her mother when she was born, and her grandmother died so early, and she didn’t have relatives to care for her for a few days.
Later, with Noble, she finally had someone to live with, and she was no longer so lonely. It was just that she had to start taking care of others again after she had never enjoyed the care and care of others for a few days.

"If you feel uncomfortable, just cry a few times." Tie Dan'er didn't know how to comfort her

"I don't know how to cry. I haven't cried since my grandma died. Even after that, no matter how sad or painful I was, I never shed a tear. Anyway, I'm used to not having a mother, and I don't miss her as much as I did when I was a child."

"I will take good care of you. I will never let anyone hurt you at all in the future, and I will never let you suffer again." Tiedan'er arrived.

Paoer hugged his arm and rested his head on his shoulder, "Brother, do you know? Meeting you is my blessing. It shows that God still loves me. Although I don't have a mother, there are so many of you to love me." Me, what else am I not satisfied with?”

"It's cold outside and you've been out for a long time. Let's go back. Laibao has been alone for a long time and he doesn't know what trouble he will cause. We have prepared a banquet and gifts for you to celebrate your birthday. If you don't go back and see look?"

Paoer sat up and looked at him, "Gifts? And a banquet? How did you two get a banquet?"
