Chapter 84: Out of the Cabinet (Part 1)
Chapter 84: Leaving the Pavilion (Part 1)
On the autumn night, the moonlight was very bright, lightly scattered on the cyan floor tiles through the window lattice, full of tranquility.
Looking at the red gold brocade clothes hanging on the hanger, lady eleven was not sleepy.
I'm going to marry at Xu's house tomorrow. Are I really ready?
She couldn't help turning over.
Wu Xiaoquan came to Yanjing from Yuhang, not only for Luo Zhensheng's marriage, but also for her-because the dowry had two Zhuangzi and two yards, the elder wife asked Wu Xiaoquan to bring a four-room companion house from Yuhang's hometown. One of them is Jiang Bingzheng, who is said to be the uncle of Jiang Ma, who is just in his early thirties this year; one is Liu Yuanrui, the same age as Jiang Bingzheng; one is Wan Yizong, 38 years old; the other is Chang Jiuhe, thirty-two year old.
Wu Xiao's family once told her proudly that she helped select these four houses. That Wan Yizong and Chang Jiuhe are good at farming. Jiang Bingzheng used to be the shopkeeper at the Luojia Hangzhou shop. He was rushed to the Zhuangzi because he offended the Tao manager who was in charge of the Luojia Hangzhou city business. The third uncle of Tao Ma next to Yuanniang is a very insidious and cunning person. Mother Tao must be guarded against all odds... As for Liu Yuanrui, he is very honest and does good farming work. The main reason for choosing him is because His wife cooks good meals. On the big days of the beginning of spring and autumn harvest, all the chefs of Liu Yuanrui's family are very capable. At that time, Liu Yuanrui's family can be in charge of the yard. When I am free, I live in the yard, and there is also a person who takes care of food and drink.
Lady Eleven smiled and thanked Wu Xiao's family, but instead of contacting the four families, she asked Humber "...Do you know?"
Amber groaned, "I know Liu Yuanrui. This person was originally the head of the village, he was very honest, and was later..." At this point, she paused, "I was squeezed down by my nephew Xu, if it wasn't her My wife is capable and has Wu Xiao's family, I'm afraid I won't be able to gain a foothold on the Zhuangzi. However, she cooks good meals and is often asked to help cook for weddings and weddings. Although I don't know Jiang Bingzheng, I have heard of it. Said that he was very active and wanted to earn the position of manager of Hangzhou Mansion with Manager Tao. Later, Manager Tao found out that he had embezzled the purchase price and kicked him to Zhuangzi. If it wasn't for Manager Wu to keep him, the eldest wife would chase him away too early. Going out.” As she said, she hesitated for a moment, “This person doesn’t know how to farm. Even on Zhuangzi, he also fished for three days and dried the net for two days. There is a relationship between Mr. Wu, and everyone has nothing to do with him...”
lady eleven was surprised "Why should Wu Xiaoquan protect him?"
Amber smiled and said, "He married Manager Wu's niece."
On one side is Mama Jiang and on the other side is Wu Xiaoquan. He is also vying for position with Director Tao. This Wang Bingzheng background is quite complicated. However, if you can come, you should have two brushes. For example, the wife of Liu Yuanrui's family, her husband's errand was overwhelmed by Xu's nephew, and she was able to get in touch with Wu Xiao's family, and was finally sent to Yanjing as a companion house...
lady eleven couldn't help but slightly chin her head.
"I have never heard of Wan Yizong and Chang Jiuhe!" Humber said, "Should I ask if you want to. Liu Yuanrui's family should know."
They are all young people, born out of each other, and you will know what kind of personality they are when they meet!
Lady Eleven smiled and said, "Forget it, this is just a side word from Wu Xiao's family. Who knows how my mother will arrange it."
Amber no longer speaks.
lady eleven remembered another thing.
Mother Xu told her yesterday that the eldest wife would let her take four maids there.
She thought, and asked Amber to call Dong Qing, and then she sent Amber and asked Dong Qing separately, "Maybe only four will go by then, what do you think?"
Dong Qing stunned, bowed his head, and said for a while, "Miss, for the sake of me serving you, you, you can match me with a serious person!" He said, tears fell silently, The skirt formed a little water.
lady eleven sighed softly.
Dong Qing must have thought that she was embarrassed, so she specially mentioned her privately, so that she had a heart preparation.
"Don't worry, I will be the first to take you away." She smiled and calmed Dong Qing's helplessness, "I won't let you fall into Yao's hands."
Dong Qing nodded with tears, "Miss, I will be a cow and horse in my next life to repay your kindness."
"What do I want you to do?" Lady Eleven couldn't help laughing.
She called Bin Ju to ask again.
Bin Ju was very straightforward, "Naturally think of a way to keep Amber." He also gave an idea, "Miss, or else, let's let Amber take a laxative as before..."
lady eleven couldn't help laughing, "That can't work!"
"What should I do then?" She frowned, "I felt hairy when I looked at her." After thinking about it, she told lady eleven about Humber's visit to Shiniang, "...you often let us be patient. She's fine, she gets proud of a few clothes. I'm afraid she will cause you trouble."
"Yeah." Lady Eleven nodded with a smile, "I know. I'll take care of this!"
Bin Ju breathed a sigh of relief.
lady eleven asked Qiu Ju.
Qiu Ju thought for a while and looked at her seriously, "Miss, let me stay!"
lady eleven was very surprised.
Qiu Ju smiled and said, "I want to go back to Yuhang. My mother, Lao Tzu, and older brothers are all in Yuhang."
Knowing when to say what to say, knowing what she wants... suddenly lady eleven is very reluctant to bear her.
I couldn't help shaking her hand. "Do you have anything special?"
Qiu Ju secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she knew that the master she was serving was not the kind of narrow-minded, but letting her go like this, it also surprised her.
She smiled and said, "I want to learn Miss double-sided embroidery."
It's impossible from the perspective of time or the current situation.
Lady eleven thought for a moment, and said, "I will tell Manager Wu to send you to the Hangzhou mansion as an errand. Then write an envelope to Master Jian, and you will find Master Jian with my letter. As for the failure to learn, It depends on your good fortune."
Qiu Ju hurriedly knelt down to give lady eleven three beeps, "Miss's great kindness, I will remember it all my life."
It means to let her go back to Yuhang to reunite with her parents!
When they were separated, lady eleven realized that Qiu Ju was a pearl, but unfortunately, she didn't realize it.
With a touch of regret, she asked Zhu Xiang "...you said, which four should I choose?"
Zhu Xiang was shocked.
She is a little maid, and she has always only followed Qiu Ju or Bin Ju's back. Asking her this way, she felt surprised.
Lady Eleven smiled and said, "You were introduced by Wu Yiniang, and I can't leave you at home. But when we went to Xufu, we were not familiar with the place where we were born, and we were foreigners. I was afraid that we would encounter many things. At that time, if you guys can't twist into a rope, I'm afraid it will be difficult. Ask you, I have a plan in my heart!"
Zhu Xiang lowered her finger and didn't speak for a long time.
Lady Eleven didn't urge her, she drank tea quietly.
After a while, she said carefully, "Hold, leave Sister Qiu Ju! She still has mother and Laozi in Yuhang."
Lady eleven's heart shook slightly, but she smiled and said, "Qiu Ju will serve me when he enters the house. I am a little bit reluctant. It's Amber..."
Her voice hasn't finished yet, Zhu Xiang has raised her head.
The big eyes were full of panic, "Don't...the big lady won't agree...Where is Wu Yiniang still in Yuhang? Or, should you send me back to Yuhang? Wu Yiniang always has someone to serve!"
lady eleven looked at her and smiled slightly "I see."
Zhu Xiang said, "Miss don't worry, I won't tell other people about this."
Lady eleven's smile deepened.
A few days later, the eldest wife introduced her to four companion rooms.
Na Jiang Bingzhengguo, as Amber said, was a smart person with very flexible eyes. He stood at the door with Liu Yuanrui, Wan Yizong, and Chang Jiuhe. The other three bowed their heads and bowed their heads and did not dare to lift them. Jiang Bingzheng actually took the eyes of lady eleven several times.
lady eleven carefully observed the hands of the four.
Jiang Bingzheng's hands were clean and tidy, unlike a Zhuanghu person.
The hands of Liu Yuanrui, Wan Yizong and Chang Jiuhe all had rough knuckles and rough skin. But Wan Yizong is different from Liu Yuanrui and Chang Jiuhe. Wan Yizong's hands were very clean, and Liu Yuanrui and Chang Jiuhe still had mud in their nails.
Thinking of this, she turned over again.
The rubbing of the rustling lichen skirt seemed very loud in this quiet night.
"Miss, are you asleep yet?"
It was Kohaku who was sleeping on the bed footrest and spent the night asking her.
"Did not sleep!" lady eleven said softly.
Usually at this time, Amber has something to say to her.
After waiting for a long while, Amber really said, "Lord Marquis is like this, even if it's heaven!" Her voice was barely audible, as misty as she wanted to blend into the moonlight, "I often hear people say that the feast It will disperse..." There was also a strong temptation in the tone, "and said, ascending to the heights will be heavy...Lord Marquis, isn't that kind of person?"
When Xu Lingyi came back from victory, the emperor once again proposed to enshrine him. Xu Lingyi wrote a long letter of gratitude, and again politely refused. The emperor rewarded Xu Lingyi with ten thousand taels of gold and ten fertile fields.
The old lady just sneered.
The old man sighed and said "a pity".
Unexpectedly, Amber had such insights?
There was a thought that had been circling in her heart once again.
Lady Eleven turned sideways, resting her head and arms looking at Amber on the bed, "Do you know why my mother gave you to me?"
"I don't know." Amber's heart shook, "I was thinking, sisters are so smart. Xu thought I was elm, so I sent it out." She looked sideways at lady eleven, her eyes flickering in the dark. .
"I don't know." Lady Eleven smiled, "However, since she chose you, she must have her intentions. I want to ask you now, would you follow me?"
It's not asking if she would like to follow her to Xu Mansion, but if she would like to follow herself... There is an essential difference.
"You don't need to answer me now!" Lady Eleven lay down again, "Think about it and answer me later!"
Wouldn't it be possible to return to the big lady?
She never had a choice.
To be a maid in the mansion is the meaning of parents; to be with the eldest wife is Xu’s mother; to be transferred to the eleventh lady’s room is the meaning of the eldest wife... But she knows that she has always been single-minded-a girl The second marriage had no good results, and there was no good result in Cao Yingxin in Han.
Amber smiled, "I naturally want to follow the lady." The voice was not rushed or slow, with a solemn taste.
In the dark, lady eleven's mouth turned slightly, and she turned to sleep "You must remember what you said."
