Everyone loves face, Zheng Qingchuan spoke very politely, which made Mama Yu feel very useful, and regarded Zheng Qingchuan as her own person.Before leaving, Mama Yu saw two little maids standing at the door of the hall, so she reminded: "Generally, after the guests enter the house, the little maids can't stand at the door, they have to go to the bottom of the steps to guard."
If you get too close, you can hear it even if you don't want to hear it. ”It is worthy of being a person trusted by Hong Yuejing, who is indeed shrewd and capable, Zheng Qingchuan thanked him, and then ordered the nurse.Seeing off the guests, Zheng Qingchuan went to Mrs.
Su.After a while, Zheng Qingchuan couldn't help but wonder if he was too careful, Old Madam Su's gaze at her was not as enthusiastic and warm as usual, her attitude was light, and she even had a little more deliberately increased alienation, and even her smile was not very real.Zheng Qingchuan wondered, what was the matter, she was still as usual, she sat on the kang first and helped Mrs.
Su pinch her shoulders.Old Madam Su glanced back at Zheng Qingchuan, a little helpless.Mrs.
Su just heard from the maids that Zheng Qingchuan sent Mama Yun to interrogate them one by one, and also drove away a little maid in the West Cross Courtyard, and heard that she was sent to the nunnery, all because she said something a few days ago, she asked Zheng Qingchuan not to climb the tree, which led to these troubles.The old man couldn't help but think: Is Zheng Qingchuan's heart too small In the eyes of Mrs.
Su, things like the maids have a few more mouths are just trivial things, when she was in her hometown before, she sat with the neighbors with her rice bowl and chatted.
But he told Mama Yun to punish the maid, not to mention that this matter was still because of her, and the old man felt that Zheng Qingchuan was not very sincere, and the common name was not very kind, so his attitude was a little awkward, but Zheng Qingchuan thoughtfully helped her pinch her shoulder, and the pimple in her heart couldn't help but melt slowly.Old Mrs.
Su stopped shouting three years ago, she said earnestly: "Ah Qi, being a maid in our house is better than being a nun" As soon as she heard this, the confusion in Zheng Qingchuan's eyes immediately dissipated like a fog, and she felt a little frowning in her heart.It turned out that the grandmother was unhappy because of this matter, she didn't rush to explain, and continued to listen to Mrs.
Su.Mrs.
Su said again: "Let's behave properly, sit upright, and don't be afraid of what others say, isn't it?"
"As long as they don't tell lies, don't eavesdrop, don't peek, they don't be bad girls." ”"There are so many people around you, there are so many mouths, either this or that, even if you don't say it to your face, you may say it behind your back.If you mind what others say every day, where is there peace when you are angry about this?"
Zheng Qingchuan waited for Old Madam Su to stop before she answered: "Grandmother, I'm not angry about this, but afraid. ”"Oh" Mrs.
Su immediately asked in surprise: "What are you afraid of?"
Zheng Qingchuan beat his back and said briskly: "I'm afraid that a small amount will add up, and I'm afraid that in the future, outsiders will treat the things in the West Cross Courtyard as if they were melon seeds."
In the West Cross Courtyard live Su Mu, Ah Qing, Ah Yun and me, especially Ah Qing and Ah Yun, who have not yet decided to marry. ”"I know" Old Madam Su patted the back of Zheng Qingchuan's hand, this time her tone was heavy and added to her trouble.Women who are not out of the cabinet pay the most attention to fame.Mrs.
Su loves her granddaughter, so she won't help the maid talk this time.Zheng Qingchuan struck while the iron was hot, and said: "Grandmother, don't worry, I didn't force that maid to be a nun, but because she had nowhere to go, I temporarily placed her in a nunnery to eat and live, and gave the nunnery a little silver as food money."
Look at it, others told you that the maid became a nun, in fact, it was a lie, if the maids all love to talk about the master's affairs, and even lie can tell it, is it deliberately making the family uneasy" Mrs.
Su nodded and said: "The maids are also bad, next time I will scold them" Zheng Qingchuan calmed down, did not like or worry, and continued to beat his back.Xiaohua and Xiaocao, who were helping to fan the wind next to them, couldn't help but hang their heads low, not daring to look at Zheng Qingchuan.Zheng Qingchuan's gaze swept over them, like the cold light of ice and snow."
At the beginning of man, his nature is good."
If you have always believed this sentence, you will answer another sentence: "Meanness is the passport of the mean, and nobility is the epitaph of the noble." ”The sky outside suddenly became dark, and there was a loud thunderstorm, and the thunder came suddenly, like the roar of a tiger, which shook people's hearts and livers, and Zheng Qingchuan just looked out the window, and the rain fell.The rain was urgent, the wind was also urgent, a typical summer afternoon rainstorm.Chi Yue hurriedly ran to lower the door curtain, but was still blown by the rain on his face by the oblique wind.After a while, Mama Yun lifted the curtain and came in, saying, "The rain is coming urgently, those maids and mothers-in-law are hiding in the house to sleep, and their clothes are wet before they have time to collect them, and they can't send dry clothes today." ”Probably influenced by the previous incident, Old Madam Su immediately frowned and said, "Clothes are not a big deal, anyway, there are other clothes to change."
However, so many maids and mothers-in-law are all lazy, this is not good" Mama Yun half-lowered her head, and hurriedly agreed: "Wait a while, I will teach them a lesson, and it is best to punish them a little monthly, so that they can remember it for a long time." ”Zheng Qingchuan didn't interject at first, but she suddenly noticed that Mama Yun's shoes were wet, and she said, "Today's rain is indeed urgent, and it will come down in the blink of an eye."
In my opinion, you don't need to use Mama Yun for the punishment of the month, you just go and talk about them, don't take it as an example. ”"Yes."
Mama Yun went out again.Old Lady Su.Old Madam Su said regretfully: "Ah Qi, I blamed you before" She originally thought that Zheng Qingchuan liked to punish maids, but her heart was not big enough, but now she doesn't think so.Zheng Qingchuan's voice was muffled, and said: "Grandmother, you have to believe me in the future, in fact, I have punished very few maids" Old Madam Su nodded busily, like a child, and promised: "In the future, I don't believe other people's words" Zheng Qingchuan didn't pay much attention to these promises, and looked out the window a little depressed, this rainstorm is endless, if she goes back to the West Cross Courtyard now, even if she holds an umbrella, she may be poured into a soup chicken.However, she wanted to go back now, and did not want to stay here for dinner.As soon as she thought so, suddenly the curtain of the door was lifted, and a wind swept in, and the aunt of the Su family walked in.The aunt of the Su family said in a loud voice: "Mother, it is raining heavily today, it gets dark early, let's have dinner early, lest the people in the kitchen be blind and let the food be mixed with flies" Zheng Qingchuan felt that his appetite ran away when he heard it, and Mrs.
Su agreed: "Xiaohua, you go to the kitchen to spread the word" Before Mrs.
Su's words fell, the aunt of the Su family hurriedly said: "Tell them, prepare the supper early, make me two roast chickens, others have black chickens to eat, why didn't I" Chi Yue rolled her eyes silently, and heard the meaning of the insinuating words.Although the accounts of the Su family are calculated separately, there is nothing innocent in this world, plus the uncle of the Su family and the family all eat with Mrs.
Su, the money for this meal is basically paid by Su Mu to the uncle of the Su family, and the meal must be of the highest quality, otherwise, the aunt of the Su family will definitely scold.Fortunately, Su Mu is not a cautious person, so he didn't care about these trivial matters.Mrs.
Su was used to her eldest daughter-in-law's love to take advantage, so she ignored her, turned to Zheng Qingchuan and said, "Maybe when you finish dinner, the rain will stop, don't worry." ”Zheng Qingchuan said generously: "I asked the nurse to put the black chicken soup on the small stove and stew."
If you don't eat it today, it will be bad tomorrow. ”The weather in June, and there is no refrigerator, where can I store overnight dishes Zheng Qingchuan knew that Mrs.
Su was saving, so she said it on purpose.At the same time, she also deliberately said it to the aunt of the Su family, didn't the aunt of the Su family mention the black chicken before, so that greedy people can hear enough, and if they can't eat it, it is a kind of torture, so that this kind of person is itching in their hearts, like a worm crawling in their hearts, the aunt of the Su family immediately smiled and said: "What is the matter, let your nurse send the black chicken soup over" She happened to eat separately, and with her experience, as long as she put the spoon into the soup, Zheng Qingchuan would not touch the bowl of soup again, then it would all become hers Old Madam Su frowned and roared: "What's the matter with you, the roast chicken can't stop your mouth," I have to say, Mrs.
Su knows more about this superb eldest daughter-in-law, after all, they have lived together for decades, and seeing the long mouth of the Su family's aunt and pretending to be aggrieved, Zheng Qingchuan's mood is relatively happy."
The fifth young master is here," there was a maid outside the door.Zheng Qingchuan hurriedly looked at the door, his eyes lit up, and he saw Su Mu.The two looked at each other silently, quite tacitly.Su Mu said: "Grandmother, this rain may fall into the middle of the night, I'll take Ah Qi back first." ”Old Madam Su looked at the rain outside the window again, listening to the loud sound of rain, crackling, a little worried, and said hesitantly: "Do you want to wait any longer, it seems to be a little bigger."
Wait for the rain to light up and then go" Zheng Qingchuan immediately smiled: "It's okay to go back and take a hot bath, grandmother, you see, Su Mu's shoes are wet, if you don't change them early, you will catch a cold" Mrs.
Su was helpless, but she felt sorry for her grandson, so she could only agree.Zheng Qingchuan smiled and trotted towards Su Mu, the two went out, holding an umbrella together, Su Mu's hand was on her shoulder, he helped her block a lot of oblique rain, because he walked on the side of the tuyere.Zheng Qingchuan thought to herself, there must be a resentful sight behind her, but her mood is exceptionally good, if she often eats with the aunt of the Su family, it is really a kind of torture, fortunately, she only suffers from this kind of torture during the holidays, because she and Su Mu have long focused the lives of the two of them on the West Cross Courtyard, and most of the time the two of them can live a comfortable life
