Painting Tang Jiao

Chapter 18

Xuezhu carried the small basket prepared by Linglu and walked to the second girl's yard.

On the way, I bumped into the green pearl in the yard of the third girl.

"Are you calling Seventh Girl?" Luzhu walked towards Xuezhu.

Xuezhu knew that she couldn't avoid it, so she said with a smile: "Miss made some gadgets, let me send them to Second Miss."

Lu Zhu looked at the flowered cloth covering the basket, her eyes were fiery as if she wanted to poke a hole in it.

Xuezhu lifted a corner of the floral cloth calmly: "Look, see if you like it. If you like it, take it first. Treat it as a gift from me."

Luzhu took a step back, and said embarrassedly: "This is not very good, it was given by the seventh girl to the second girl."

That's what he said, but the greed in his eyes was captured by Xuezhu.

As the second-class maid beside the old lady, Xuezhu could not understand Luzhu's character.

"That is, some beads are strung together to form a bracelet, which is not worth a lot of money. Our girl also said that she gave me a few strings. If you like to pick two strings, you can change your belt."

As he said that, he lifted the flower cloth, intending to give it to Lu Zhu.

Lu Zhu stepped forward with a smile, and picked two strings by herself.

Xu Shi was short-handed, and after Lu Zhu put the bracelets together, she smiled and said, "If you have anything to do in the future, just come to me. I also have a bit of face around Miss San."

If the second girl leaves the cabinet, the third girl will become the biggest girl in the house.

I have to say that what Lu Zhu said made some sense.

Just remembering the deal between herself and Seventh Miss, Xue Zhu didn't care, but a person like Third Miss is still useful.Xuezhu is also happy to show that she is on good terms with Luzhu.

Lvzhu walked with Xuezhu for a while, and when the road turned fork, the two separated.

Xuezhu stopped in the middle of the road, and waited until Luzhu's figure was gone, and then went back to the second girl's yard.

As a result, time was delayed again.

Xuezhu carried the basket into the house.

The second girl is trying on a wedding dress.

"The waist is still a bit too big, let someone change it again?" The second girl told Ruizhu.

Ruizhu folded the wedding dress on one side, and Xuezhu handed over the basket.

"Miss said thank you for the relationship with the second girl. The girl has nothing to do." When Xuezhu went, the second girl asked Xuezhu to take a message, and now she is replying to the second girl.

"The old lady asked the girl to make a forehead wipe, and gave a lot of small pearls and coral beads. She asked the girl to play with it when she talked too much. The girl thought that the second girl would be rewarded when she came out of the court, so she made a lot of beads. Bracelets."

The second girl heard about wiping her forehead, but she didn't care.Hearing what Xuezhu said, he opened the basket curiously and took a look.The beads on these bracelets are relatively large and are not suitable for sewing on the forehead. Presumably it is for this reason that Seventh Sister picked them out to make bracelets.

Although these beads are worthless, they are better than novelty in color matching.

The second girl liked it a little bit when she saw it, and thought that it would be okay to give it away to play or give it to the servants in the future, so she asked Xuezhu to put it away on the dressing table beside her.

At this time, Rui Zhu had also folded her wedding dress.

The second girl said: "Let mother quickly send someone to send it for correction, and I will try again after I get it back."

Although Xuezhu's female celebrity is good, but for the wedding dress, the second girl does not intend to use the craftsmanship of a maid.Xuezhu knew it in her heart, and she didn't volunteer.

Although Ruizhu was a little bit reluctant, she still left, leaving the second girl and Xuezhu in the room.

"... On the way here, I ran into a green bead in the courtyard of the third girl... We chatted for a while. After giving her two bracelets, she left..."

"I didn't say much. I just meant to take care of me in the future. I think it's for the sake of the second girl."

Snowball's voice was very soft.

Ruizhu lay on the door with her bundle in her arms, and could only hear intermittently.

"For my sake, I'm afraid that man's tail will be raised before I leave. I don't even look at who I am." The second girl said disdainfully.

The two talked again, and the second girl asked about Qing Huan.

Xuezhu's voice became even softer, and Ruizhu couldn't hear it clearly.

Only vaguely heard. . . .courtyard. . . . . .get married. . . . . . .stay. . . . . .

Rui Zhu was anxious, and wanted to listen more clearly with her ears.

There was a sound of walking outside, Ruizhu panicked, and quickly walked outside with her bundle.

He bumped into Xiangmo, the former maid next to the second girl.

Xiangmo didn't notice someone rushing up, and was pushed back a few steps by someone.

Taking a closer look, seeing that it was Ruizhu, he was annoyed in his heart, but on his face he asked with concern: "Sister Ruizhu, why are you leaving in such a hurry?" As he spoke, he looked curiously at the bundle in Ruizhu's arms.

Ruizhu twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "The girth of the girl's wedding dress is not suitable, let me send it to the eldest wife." She nodded to Xiangmo, and walked out of the yard without waiting for her to speak.

Xiangmo spat lightly, and cursed secretly: "What kind of virtue is it, you're just a maid."

. . . . . .

The second master hurried back to the mansion.

The second wife stayed in the room alone, arranging several mahogany makeup boxes.

"What is it, you want to call me back." The second master entered the room and saw the second wife frowning and said, "I still have a lot of things outside."

"You have something to do, what can you do?" The second wife slammed one of the boxes shut and shouted.

The second master walked over to the tea table beside him in annoyance, and poured tea and water on his own.

"Drink, drink, I'm not in a hurry about my daughter's affairs. I just know how to drink, what's good to drink." The second wife is used to being aggressive, and she can't see the appearance of the second master.

When he came over, he snatched the tea cup from the second master's hand and put it heavily on the coffee table.

More than half of the tea was spilled.

The second master looked at it distressedly: "This is the best Yongchuan Xiuya. There are only three taels in the whole mansion, and the eldest brother only gave me one tael."

One of the second master's hobbies is tea.

Seeing being ruined by the second wife, my heart aches.

"Look at how promising you are." The second wife gritted her teeth and said bitterly, but still poured a cup of tea in her hand.

The second master was no longer annoyed when he saw it, and picked up the teacup with a smile.

"What's the matter? This is so angry. Isn't Yanhuan good? What's the matter with her." The second master has always felt very powerful about his whole daughter.

His temperament is not like himself or his wife at all.

It's a bit of an old lady when she was young.

Gu Er, the second master treats the fourth girl very much.It's not that the second master respects the old lady, but that she thinks that such a fourth girl will definitely have a bright future.

"It's not a marriage yet."

The second wife was full of anger when she thought about it.

"Didn't you go out to socialize with your sister-in-law today?"

"Hmph." It's good that the second master didn't take the initiative to mention it, but once he mentioned the second wife, he couldn't bear it anymore.

"She looks so proud, but she's just a wife of the prince. Then Qian Huan is not as good as Yan Huan. If the old lady is not partial, this marriage can go to her head."

"Don't talk nonsense." The second master said lightly.

He also agrees with what the second wife said, it's just his habit of being a child and his consistent behavior in Yan's mansion that made him say such a harmless sentence.

The second wife curled her lips full of disdain.

"Where did you say that? Why are you nervous? There is nothing to worry about in your own room." The second wife didn't want to get entangled in this issue, and talked about what happened at the dinner party today.

"Not to mention anything else, since Qian Huan is already married, she will leave the cabinet in a short time. Why is she still not satisfied, and insists on suppressing our room. Don't say that I am the only one in the house, just It's just because of your hard work outside the house to manage the business of the mansion. There is hard work without credit. Didn't I just mention a few more words about Yanhuan in front of those wives? Why did you deliberately change the subject and come back She didn't give me a good look in the carriage. Why should she? They are all young ladies from Yan's residence, we Yanhuan are ready, can't we help our second niece?"

"Is there such a thing?" The second master frowned.

"I'll still lie to you." Seeing that the second master was suspicious, the second wife yelled loudly.

"Be quiet."

It's not that he doesn't believe the second wife, but the second master also knows that there must be water in what the second wife said just now.

"Didn't I already tell you that Yanhuan's matter is not in a hurry now, I have arrangements. Of course I will keep my daughter's matter in mind. You can't do bad things and harm Yanhuan instead."

The second girl has become the eldest wife of the Hou's mansion, one can imagine how beautiful the eldest wife will be in the mansion in the next few days.The second master was worried that when the second wife got along with the eldest wife, she would lose her temper and start a dispute.

If you make trouble with the old lady, don't forget it.

Yanhuan's impression in the old lady's heart will definitely decline.

What the second master is sure of now is that, regardless of whether the old lady or the eldest master, let's ignore what he thinks for the time being.But she must have thoughts about Yanhuan's marriage.

Women's marriage has been used for marriage since ancient times.

The four girls' reputations and dispositions are not bad, it's just that their status is worse.

But if the old man and the old lady are willing to contribute, these are not a problem at all.

"I... I'm in a hurry." The second wife muttered, "Yanhuan is the same age as Meng Huan. If we follow the order, we must choose Meng Huan first. You also know that your eldest brother treats Aunt Qing I'm afraid of the wind blowing in my ears. Our Yanhuan's marriage will be snatched away."

12 years old is too young
In the big family, they have all started to look at each other and propose marriage.

In this way, when the marriage is finalized, it will take two years to leave the cabinet.

As for the second girl, the old lady ordered her to have a marriage contract too early.

This dragged on until now.

The second master looked at the tea leaves floating in the cup, his eyes flashed with thought.

The second wife's worries are also justified.

Aunt Qing is more favored than the eldest wife, and she is afraid that at a critical moment, the eldest master will be given ecstasy soup.

For matters such as marriage contracts, if the sex notes between men and women have not been exchanged, any suitability may change.

"Okay, I see." The second master thought for a while and got up and said: "The furniture in the dowry prepared for the second niece was only delivered to the store today. I have to go and check the situation."

The second wife didn't stop her, she already said what she wanted the second master to know.

The second wife will not take care of the outside affairs.

Moreover, the house attached great importance to Qian Huan's marriage, and the second wife did not dare to prevent the second master from going out.

After all, if there is something wrong with these furniture, it will be the second bedroom.
