Painting Tang Jiao

Chapter 21

For several days in a row, the mansion was all because of the Grand Master's promotion.

The old lady and the eldest lady ordered the kitchen to add more dishes to the masters, and the servants also benefited a lot from it.Some servants even went to Aunt Qing, said a lot of good things and got some rewards.

Qing Huan's yard is remote, and many of the servants in the yard sneaked into the compound, hoping to get some rewards if they were lucky.

"This group of people should really go out of the house and sell it to that woman." Ling Lu walked in angrily.

"You girl, why don't you care what they do if I ask you to serve a meal? Don't tell me you're not happy if the girl asks you to do something." Aunt Liu took the food box Linglu was carrying.

With less things in her hands, Ling Lu could speak more fluently.

"Auntie, you can't blame me. I don't want to. It's my good fortune that the girl let me do things. However, those people who don't have eyesight really piss me off." Linglu has a lot to say to say.

"You, I'll be happy when you can be as calm as vines." Qing Huan in the room looked up at Ling Lu and said, "It's still raining heavily outside?"

In the morning, the capital, which had been sunny for several days, suddenly began to rain heavily.The sky was cloudy, and the rain was blown into the house by the wind.

The furnishings by the windows were all drenched in the rain.

Seeing this, Aunt Liu closed the window together with Liancao Linglu and the others, and it has been closed until now.

Linglu wiped the water from her forehead with her sleeve, and said: "It's big enough, I don't know why those people are willing to go out to ask for rewards. Then go all the way, don't say if you want to get it, even if you have it, you can get a few." money?"

Mancao took a clean cloth towel to Linglu.

Ling Lu took it with a smile and hugged it on the head.

"This... What does this sound like?" Aunt Liu couldn't laugh or cry: "Go and dry your hair, if someone comes and sees you, don't you want the girl to be laughed at by your appearance?"

On Luohan's bed, a low table was placed by creepers, with vegetables from Linglu's food box on it.

Qing Huan raised her head and couldn't help laughing when she saw Ling Lu's appearance.

"Listen to my aunt, just go and wipe off Linglu. Be careful of catching a cold, and it's easy to catch cold in this weather."

Ling Lu stuck out her tongue and smiled and walked to the next room.

"Go get an empty bowl and pick up a few dishes for Ling Lu?"

In this weather, the masters had to go to Linglu himself to deliver the food.

Aunt Liu and Mancao didn't say whether they wanted to go out to the big kitchen again, but whether it would rain more or not was still a question.

The amount of food here is quite large, although the dishes are a bit poor, but Qing Huan has the final say, the four of them can eat a little bit.Just zero dew to dry hair.

I can only pick up a bowl first.

There is a small stone stove in the house, just put it on it to keep warm.

Aunt Liu and Mancao half sat by the bed, holding a bowl and eating only the vegetables in front of them.

Qing Huan couldn't stand it anymore, so she picked up a few pieces of meat for them.

"You are so careful, I feel uncomfortable eating."

Mancao secretly looked at Aunt Liu.

Aunt Liu smiled and said: "Then we will not be polite, the girl should eat more, I look thinner." As she spoke, she picked up a piece of meat and put it in the Qinghuan bowl.

There is also an extra piece of meat in the vine grass bowl.

Mancao squinted her eyes, very happy.

When the fourth girl came in, she saw Qing Huan's master and servant eating together.

Seeing this scene, the fourth girl immediately frowned.

From Miss Si's point of view, it is one thing to have a good relationship between master and servant, but no matter how good it is, there is no master and servant eating at the same table.

only. . . . . .

The fourth girl loosened her brows. After all, this is Qing Huan's servant. If she talks too much, it will give people the feeling that she is trying to make trouble.

"Fourth sister." Qing Huan swallowed the food in her mouth and shouted.

Aunt Liu and Mancao quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks and stood up.

"Quick, go and get a clean cloth towel." Qing Huan said, frowning.

The fourth girl brought Shunqiao with her. The clothes looked dry, but the corners of the skirt were wet.And Shunqiao standing behind her was even worse than Linglu, holding a coir raincoat in one hand and an oil-paper umbrella in the other, her whole body was wet.

Qing Huan pulled Miss Si to sit on Luo Han's bed, and Aunt Liu had already taken the short table aside.

"I'll do it." Qing Huan took the cloth towel and gave Mancao a wink.

Mancao went to Shunqiao's side and said with a smile, "Sister, come to my room to change clothes. I see that we are about the same size."

Shunqiao didn't move, but looked at Shunqiao.

Fourth Miss took the teacup made by Aunt Liu, took a sip, then nodded and said: "Go and change your clothes, I happen to have a conversation with Seventh Younger Sister."

Aunt Liu took a look at Qing Huan, picked up the rice left for Ling Lu, and quietly left the room.

Qing Huan kept wiping the fourth girl's hair carefully with her hands.

Before the girl was born, she seldom wore her hair up in a braid, and most of it was braided on both sides and hung down.Since the oil-paper umbrellas were propped on the fourth girl's body, Qing Huan only had to carefully avoid the hairpin on her head and wipe it off a little.

"Fourth sister, why are you here? It's raining so hard outside, I don't even bother to go out." Qing Huan said with a smile.

It's raining too much today.

So the old lady sent someone to say that there was no need to say hello, thinking that everyone was staying in their own yard.

Unexpectedly, in this weather, the fourth girl would come over suddenly.

What's the matter, can't the maid come over and say something?

Qing Huan felt strange, the movements of her hands were indeed still gentle and gentle.

"Why do you just eat these?" Miss Si answered irrelevantly.

Qing Huan raised her eyebrows where she couldn't see, and said following her topic: "Fourth sister really doesn't know? But I'm used to it, so I don't think so."

Hearing this, the fourth girl was embarrassed for a while, but she quickly smiled and said: "You also pack up, we will go to Rongshou Hall later."

"Rongshou Hall?" Qing Huan frowned: "Is it what the old lady meant? Didn't you spare us our greetings? Or the mansion..."

The implication is to let the fourth girl clear up the confusion.

"Is there any distinguished guest coming today?"

"how come?"

How could any guest come to the door in such a rainy day? Even if they wanted to come, it might have nothing to do with girls like Qing Huan, and there was no need to let the girls go out to meet the guests.

Could it be Mrs. Ruyang Bofu?
Qing Huan secretly thought, this person will not come up with another trick.

"Auntie went out today?"

"Madam?" Qing Huan felt strange.

The fourth girl nodded, added a little more tea, and held the teacup to keep warm.

"I heard... People say that it has something to do with our foster mother. Did the eldest lady come to invite her? I guess it will be here soon, and we went at noon. We have now arrived at the Rongshou Hall It's almost time."

"Where's fifth sister?"

The fourth girl was slightly startled, then she smiled and said, "Let's go by the way later, and we'll call her again."

Qing Huan nodded, but did not speak.

The foster mother was invited by the old lady, how could it be the old lady who picked her up.

And if the old lady meant it, it's impossible not to tell the girls in the mansion.Even if Qing Huan was ignored, judging from what Fourth Sister said just now, the old lady did not take the initiative to tell her the news.

Then the old lady must have been ignorant in advance.

only. . . . . .And what makes Qing Huan feel strange is that the fourth girl would choose to come to her.After all, if she hadn't reminded her that her yard was far away from Rongshou Hall, even though it was not Qing Huan's reason to be late when she met her foster mother, the impression it left on people would definitely be bad.What's more, Fourth Sister didn't call Fifth Sister, which shows that she came to Qing Huan not long after she found out about the news.

It's just for some reason that I come here.

Qing Huan couldn't help feeling more excited.

When Shunqiao came back after changing her clothes, Miss Si got up and was about to leave.

"Go and prepare a set of clothes and jewelry for your girl." Fourth Miss ordered.

Mancao nodded when she saw Qinghuan, and went into the floor-to-ceiling flower cover. When she came out, she was holding a bundle wrapped in oil-skinned paper.

The fourth girl couldn't help but look at Mancao twice when she saw the oil paper.

Aunt Liu found out the coir raincoat and put it on for Qing Huan.

When the four of them went out, the rain was already a little high.

Qing Huan didn't prepare clogs, when she returned to the capital, she streamlined the box and cage, where would she have prepared these things.

There was no other way, the four of them had no choice but to walk towards the center of Yan's mansion while dripping water.

The fourth girl took Qing Huan back to the yard, and changed into a new set of clothes, and Qing Huan also changed into a spare one under the care of the vines.

The changed clothes were put away by Shun Hao.

Qing Huan only took one look before being dragged out by Miss Si.

Four pairs of wooden clogs were placed neatly on the steps, two delicate ones were supposed to be for Siguniang and Qing Huan, and the rest were Mancao and Shunqiao.

"I made this two years ago. At that time, I made a few more pairs when I was young, but it was useless. Seventh sister, don't be disgusted. It's just that the ones I made first will be bigger for you." Look at me and look at Qinghuan's feet.

Qing Huan's feet were naturally small, but after being looked at like this, she shrank unnaturally under her skirt.

The fourth girl's yard is also close to the Rongshou Hall, and it is also fast with oil-paper umbrellas and wooden clogs.

"I've sent someone to notify Fifth Sister. I didn't expect it to be so rainy today, so it took some time. Let's go directly to Rongshou Hall." The fourth girl frowned, "If we're all late, I'm afraid of being disciplined." My mother doesn't like it."

How could Qing Huan object? She herself accepted the love of the fourth girl.

When we arrived at Rongshou Hall, the eldest wife hadn't arrived yet.

In Rongshou hall, the second girl and the third girl are already sitting.Both of them have been carefully dressed, but the second girl tends to be dignified, while the third girl is dressed in a noble style.

On the other hand, Miss Si and Qing Huan, one is gentle and decent, dressed not too rich but not lifeless, it is most like the attire of a young lady, while the other is dressed simply, because of the busy schedule, Mancao does not have Take the cumbersome jewelry and choose elegant clothes.

Seeing the fourth girl who came in, the old lady nodded, feeling both satisfied and regretful.

"You two sit down."

Qing Huan looked around for a while, knowing that the fifth sister hadn't come yet, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

After serving tea on the autumn grass, I was ready to open the curtain and go out.

I just heard the exchange of maidservants along the way
Qing Huan and the fourth girl looked at it and knew that it was the eldest wife who had returned.

"Mother Xia, this way please." A woman came in with the eldest lady, but to Qing Huan's surprise, the fifth girl was also among them.

This is when two groups collided.

Miss Si and Qing Huan exchanged glances in a hurry, and they quickly got up from their seats and stood up.
