Foster son and husband

Chapter 27 Waiting

Ruizhu hastily bowed slightly to catch up: "My maidservant will lead the way for the eldest young lady, Lord Hou is probably still practicing martial arts at this moment..."

Mei Niang stopped and looked at them with a sideways face: "Stop for a while, Cui Lian and Cheng'er will bring someone to bring you breakfast, you two should wait here, and Mama Wang will also stay here, and teach the girls to get ready and wait for Grandpa. Come back and take a shower and change, then you can have breakfast!"

After speaking, he took Cuisi along the corridor to the training ground.

Ruibao Ruizhu was stunned, and Wang's mother glanced at them: "What are you doing standing there? Is the room tidied up? Is there enough warm water in the inner room? Check carefully again whether the items inside are all in place. I'll go to the East Flower Hall to have a look!"

Seeing Mama Wang's figure disappearing around the corner, Ruibao glanced around, and said in a little panic: "She used to be so sick, and now she's dying, so we can ignore her, and now she's on the mend, but what should we do? Okay? From now on, I dare not accidentally wait on you!"

Rui Zhu pouted: "What are you afraid of? We are the people in front of the old lady, and we are set aside to serve the waiter. If we don't provoke her, she can still eat us?"

She used to be the big girl who served the old lady in the room. When the Lord Hou married the young lady and came in, the old lady was so angry that she became "sick" and didn't go to the wedding hall to accept the gift. So what if the imperial decree gave her a marriage?When a rich family marries a wife, it’s not just about beauty. This young lady wants to have no family background, money but no money. She can enter the Hou’s mansion and get that honor, but she doesn’t get the love and blessings of the elders at all. She gave birth to a brother, but the old lady still didn't like it. She went to Jinhuatang to ask her how she was. The room is here.The elders don't want to see you so much, so the Hou is also helpless, right?In the end, my heart became cold, the eldest and young lady gave birth to her brother, and when Master Hou returned home, the old lady gave the four girls around her to Lord Hou at the same time. Master Hou thanked his grandmother and brought them back that day. Baohui became a housekeeper, but Hou Ye wanted two damn second-class girls, Ruyi and Xiu'er, so she and Ruibao had to be servant girls.It's a shame that Ruyi and Xiu'er have only been in the room for a few days. Ruyi accidentally let her slip when she was pregnant with a child, but she also brought up her aunt together. There is two taels of silver a month, and she is served by a girl and a woman, so she lives leisurely In Xiaojinyuan, even the young lady doesn't have to go to greet her—who is afraid of such a mistress?Rui Zhu felt like a cat was scratching in her heart, and she was unwilling to understand: In terms of appearance, she is no worse than those two stupid girls, why didn't Lord Hou choose her to be his roommate?
But Master Hou is also very kind to her and Ruibao. Almost all the affairs in the East Garden are handled by the two of them. Whatever delicious food and fun are brought in from outside, Master Hou doesn't want it, and he doesn't give it to anyone at will. For Ruizhu Ruibao, I usually talk to them in a pleasant manner, never loudly, and I am very satisfied with the service of the two of them... Thinking of this, Ruizhu's heart brightened: everything has its own priority, and the meal has to be eaten one bite at a time, Mr. The wife gave them to Lord Hou. Doesn't Lord Hou understand?He likes the two of them to serve, so he will stay by his side for a while, and one day, he will take them into his room!

Having figured this out, Ruizhu felt relieved. The young lady recovered from her illness, and she heard that she was going to be a housekeeper again. It was useless to fetch water from a bamboo basket, so there is no need to pay attention to her.That girl Ruibao was right, she should be smarter in front of the Young Madam in the future, and keep the green hills around, not afraid of lack of firewood. She and Ruibao are used to serving Lord Hou, so it is impossible to ask another Cui in front of the Young Madam. Hi Tris and the others!
On the martial arts field in Dongyuan, Xu Junying put the sword into its sheath, threw it to Bai Zhan, picked up a red-tasseled silver spear from the weapon rack, and flicked his wrist. As fast as the wind, vigorous and domineering, it stirs up strings of silver flowers, and in the blink of an eye, the man and the spear become one, turning left and right, forward and backward like a tornado, stirring up the dead leaves and snow dust all over the place, The method of setting the spear from the starting position to the closing position was completed in just two cups of tea. Xu Junying threw the silver spear in his hand with all his strength, and accurately hit a standing wooden figure dozens of steps away, piercing through.

Suddenly heard a gentle voice praise: "Good strength!"

Xu Junying didn't need to look back, he knew who was coming, he took the big cotton handkerchief that Bai Zhan handed over to wipe off his sweat, and said:
"It's such a cold day, cousin Yu doesn't sleep much, what are you doing up so early?"

Zheng Meiyu wore a peach-red straight-breasted silk cotton gown, a light green skirt, and a swallowtail bun. She swayed back and forth with water droplets, and walked over with a smile to take the outer robe from Baoju's hand, and tiptoed to wrap it around Xu. On Junying:
"Cousin can get up, why can't I? I love to watch my cousin practice marksmanship and sword. It's still a bit late today, and it's all because Mrs. Yu at the corner gate is lazy and doesn't open the door!"

Xu Junying put on her robe under her service: "The corner gate may not always be guarded, why don't you come in through the front courtyard gate?"

Zheng Meiyu deftly tidied his clothes, tied the silk sash around his waist, and carefully straightened the strings of jade hanging on the sash, and said softly:
"Didn't I want to see my cousin earlier? I'm impatient to take such a long way!"

Xu Junying glanced at her: "Just a few steps and refuses to walk, what a lazy girl! Well, don't make it too tidy, I have to take off my clothes when I go back to take a bath and change."

Zheng Meiyu naturally supported his left arm with both hands, walked side by side with him, and smiled sweetly: "Let Ruibao Ruizhu go to the flower hall to prepare breakfast, and I will serve my cousin to take a bath!"

"Cousin Yu said earlier, my cousin, if I knew that Cousin Yu was coming to serve my cousin, I wouldn't have to wake up so early!"

Qin Meiniang turned out from behind the evergreen honeysuckle tree, with a sweet smile, a pair of water-cut pupils as bright as stars, a begonia red cloud brocade filigree cotton gown, a purple eight-piece skirt with a kudzu scarf, her head was unmoving, and she was wearing gold silk with pearls. The corolla is full of jewels, elegant and rich, without makeup, but it is more delicate than flowers, so people can't take their eyes off it.

Zheng Meiyu was taken aback, and the hand on Xu Junying's arm slowly dropped.

Meiniang greeted Xu Junying and saluted with blessings: "Morning husband! Meiniang was worried that my husband was drunk last night and lost his appetite, so she asked the kitchen to cook some japonica rice porridge. This japonica rice porridge nourishes the liver and spleen and strengthens the stomach. Serve some appetizers, my husband will definitely like it!"

Xu Junying lowered her eyes slightly, then raised her eyes immediately: "Your labor, Mei Niang. I'll go change my clothes first, and since Cousin Yu is here, let's eat some too!"

There was a light in Zheng Meiyu's eyes, and she responded with a smile: "Yes!"

The smile on Mei Niang's face remained undiminished, she came up to help Xu Junying, but turned her head and said to Zheng Meiyu:

"Cousin Yu goes to the flower hall first to see if the girls have prepared breakfast, and I will accompany my husband to take a shower and change clothes!"

Xu Junying froze for a moment, Mei Niang couldn't help but dragged him away, and whispered next to his body:
"Husband, come here, there are Ruizhu Ruibao, I'll just watch from the side!"

Xu Junying glanced around, the girl Changsui looked at the couple helplessly, she had no choice but to let Mei Niang pester her away like this.

Zheng Meiyu bit her lips lightly, thought for a while, raised her head and followed, and after walking a few steps, Cuisi appeared from behind the bushes, stopped in front of her, and said with a smile:
"Miss Biao, according to Grandma's order, this servant will lead you to the East Flower Hall!"

Zheng Meiyu stared at Cuisi angrily, and said softly but coldly:

"You don't need to take it, I know which way to go, get out of the way!"

Cui Si didn't leave, and lowered her head respectfully: "Miss Biao, please take pity on the servant girl. If the servant girl leads Miss Biao quickly, she will be scolded—Mother Wang is waiting for you in the East Flower Hall. Grandma said she As soon as you wake up, there are too many places to use the money, let mom take the monthly money you have saved with you!"

Zheng Meiyu's face turned pale, she gave Cuisi a hard look, and had no choice but to follow her.
