The cook is very busy

Chapter 60
Ziqing followed Yunque to the servant's room, took the silver clothes and was about to leave, but saw Yunque taking a step ahead, leaning against the door to block the way.

She was slightly taken aback, "What's wrong, Miss Skylark is still busy?"

Seeing that Ziqing just came and got a reward, Yunque was already jealous, but she couldn't be angry at the moment, how could she let her go so easily.

She said with a half-smile, "I thought my sister would not come back after she left, but I didn't expect the old lady to still miss you. She told me to run off to find my sister today. I thought I could go back to the front yard." After a short rest, I didn’t want to even drink my saliva, so I called to run errands again.”

Ziqing could hear the sour smell here, and knew what this little girl meant, so she saw the shoe upper on Grandma Sun's hand in the other courtyard, and she was unwilling to get it.

Now seeing her getting rewards under her eyes and nose again, can she not be pantothenic?

But fortunately, this girl is not Du Juan, she is just greedy for something, she speaks quickly, and makes a few jokes that can't be brought to the table.

Thinking of this, Ziqing put the two old clothes in his hands aside, smiled and walked over to caress her hands.

"That's right, I haven't seen you and Du Juan for a while, is my sister's hand feeling better?"

After hearing this, Yunque suddenly retracted her pair of jade hands behind her back, and moved aside, she never forgot the pain in her fingers that day.

Ziqing paused, turned his back to look at himself, and said straightly that he had thick hands and feet, as if he had grown thorns, no wonder it scared the skylark girl away.

"Hey, thinking about it, I'm also a rough person, and I can't wear these good clothes. How about this, sister, you and I each have one, and these good clothes are not in vain."

Yunque listened with disbelief on his face, "Really give it to me? You got two of them. Do you really want to give me one?"

Ziqing smiled heartily, "There's nothing fake about it, it came out of my mouth and into your ear, you just have to pick it out."

Now that Skylark has a good face, he didn't have time to thank him. He went over and grabbed an old dress and stuffed it into the closet. He tiptoed and took off another bamboo green bijia that was probably new from the top, and stuck it on his body. Live and watch.

He raised his head in joy, but saw Ziqing was still there, Yunque was stunned suddenly, very embarrassed.

Then she justified herself, the clothes she chose for Ziqing just now were chosen according to her size, if she just put them on her body like this, it might not fit well, so she had to change it.

Ziqing understood in her heart, she just said she didn't understand, agreed and left, she didn't want the clothes, it wouldn't be worth much in silver, as long as this damn girl didn't think about her one tael of silver reward.

It's just that as soon as she came out, she ran into Dong Cui, raised her eyes, and both of them were stunned at the same time, "Hey, why are you here?"

Seeing the same tone of voice, the two were stunned again, only waiting for the other to speak.

Ziqing looked at it and said first, when she went back to the room to change her clothes, Mrs. Sun came to find her, and they sat in the other courtyard for a while, then Lark also came and said that the old lady was looking for her.

Dong Cui said that it was Mrs. Chen who called her here, and the latter's house was going to hold a banquet, and Mrs. Chen asked her to pick up the menu.

Ziqing smiled, and said that there was no need to go, because the old lady had already given her the menu, and she just went back now.

"It's a good feeling, ouch, when I think about seeing the old lady, my calf trembles, no, my palms are full of sweat."

Dongcui breathed out, clapped her hands and smiled, took Ziqing's arm and left.

Out of the front yard, Dong Cui looked at it and asked again, "Hey, sister, what's the matter with your clothes, I just see you holding them all the time, which room did you send them to?"

Ziqing only said that it was rewarded by the old lady, Dongcui only responded, and then talked about other places instead of talking about it.

She knew that Ziqing's younger sister was serving in front of the old lady. The old lady was always generous and gentle, and treated her servants kindly. Perhaps she was thinking of her younger sister's filial piety, and she might have appreciated the clothes on a whim.

The two left after talking and laughing. A little girl suddenly came out from the veranda beside her, holding a brocade box in her hand, she looked at it with her head, and then hurriedly walked to the front yard.

In the second room courtyard, Cuizhu was combing second/grandmother's hair, pulling up her long hair, and the girl next to her opened the jewelry box for her to choose.

However, the second/grandmother didn't do anything, she stared coldly, and just asked, "Second master went out this morning, didn't it mean that the head jewelry from every room in our house was knocked down, why haven't there been any shadows?"

Cui Zhu obediently picked up a hairpin and compared it to Er/Grandma's hair, and said, "Go back to Er/Grandma, just before Er Ye left, he sent Sophora japonica to take it, guessing..."

"Two/Grandma!"

As soon as he spoke, the bamboo curtain in the back room was called out, and a girl in a purple vest came into the room, holding a red lacquered gold silk box in her hand.

She didn't wait for the master to speak, and presented it like a treasure, "Please take a look at Er/Grandma, so that we can open our eyes."

"It belongs to Sophora japonica, you bloody girl," Er/Grandma scolded the girl, but opened the lid as she said.

When the girls in the room saw the bejeweled and golden jewelry inside, they couldn't help but sigh.

[-]/ When grandma heard this, a smug smile appeared on her face, and she couldn't hold back her eyes, but she said, "You little hoofs, you really haven't seen the world, and a few jewelry are enough to fool you."

Sophora graciously presented it, "Second/Grandma, can I bring this today?"

[-]/Grandma dared to think about it, but after thinking about it, she hated not to open her eyes, and closed the lid, "Forget it, put it away, this new thing, it's better to wait until the day of the banquet to wear it." .”

Huaihua smiled and echoed a few words, handed the box to the little girl at the side, went to the mirror by herself, picked out two pieces from the jewelry box, and presented them to the master, "Second/Grandma, on the way back, I saw The girl from the back kitchen went to the old lady's house to receive the reward."

[-]/Grandma was lingering on the gold hairpin with pearls and the silver hairpin inlaid with jade. Hearing this, she paused, and then laughed again.

It seemed that someone had been released from the front yard in the back kitchen, and she thought that the old lady would really let it go.

That's right, such a large family property is surrounded by holes, so she is not blocked by the old man. Anyway, she is not the first one. If you want to catch one piece, don't drag anyone down.

[-]/ The corner of grandma's mouth raised, and she grabbed one casually, Cui Zhu hurriedly took it, and put the hairpin in her hair, "Is it the Erya who went to the old lady's room to receive the reward?"

"Look at the stature, and it's the other two who just came out of the old lady's room, holding a lot of things in their hands, and smiling."

[-]/Grandma looked puzzled, "The old lady doesn't reward people for no reason. What is her old man thinking? Didn't she reward that Erya a lot of things a while ago? Why did she change people? Those two Who is the person?"

Huai Hua shook her head, and only said that they were two unremarkable women, but one of them was the one who made the stir-fried eel on the stone platform and water pavilion in front.

"Hiss! Take it easy, bitch!"

[-]/Grandma hadn't spoken yet, she just felt her scalp tense, and she cursed first without turning her head.

Cuizhu hurriedly knelt down, "Second/Grandma, forgive me, this servant did not do it on purpose."

[-]/Grandma was about to speak, when she looked at the person in the mirror, the hair bun is very nice today, most of the anger in her heart went away.

She stretched out her hand to support the back of her head, and lowered her head for a glance, "Come on, it's in your skillful hands, let's go down, and go back to get two slings of money."

Cuizhu hurriedly kowtowed her head in thanks, put the jade comb in her hand on the table, and backed out.

After arriving outside the courtyard, the cold sweat on her back was blown away by the wind, and Cuizhu finally breathed a sigh of relief. She felt strange that Sister Ziqing was also involved in it.
