Chapter 18 Save the Embroidered Orange
Si Zhu came forward to help Yingchun: "Madam, I think Chu Yao did it on purpose."
Yingchun looked at the ground distractedly and said for a long time, "Without Sun Shaozu's support, does she dare? I think... I'm afraid the embroidered orange will suffer a loss..." After saying that, Yingchun was speechless for a long time, and then Yingchun turned his back to Sizhu.
Si Zhu stepped forward and gently handed the handkerchief to Yingchun, helped Yingchun sit on the beauty's couch, and replied softly, "I heard that Aunt Chen's eldest daughter Xiangshe and Aunt Jiang's eldest daughter Bingye are also going."
Yingchun took the handkerchief, wiped the corners of his eyes, and slowly withdrew his eyes: "It seems that Chu Jiao doesn't leave any room for herself. I think Sun Shaozu can still stay by her side every day?"
Si Zhu asked nervously, "Madam, what do you want to do?" I'm afraid the master will be even more angry when looking for Chu Yao's trouble now.
Yingchun looked up at the window and lay down gently, but clenched his handkerchief: "Now is not the time. You have to wait. Embroidery orange, I really feel sorry for you. I must avenge this for you.
Si Zhu saw her girl cry for a slave for the first time, which really didn't expect her. In her eyes, the lady has always been strong, decisive, fierce to the master, scrutiny of the concubines, and revenge. It's not the right thing to do things. Outsiders will not believe that people like Madam will shed tears, and this scene can only be seen by her.
Si Zhu looked at the spring, and the embroidered orange was with the girl in Jia's house. Now, after the girl comes out of the cabinet, only a few girls around her can speak their own words, and the girls treat them more affectionately. Moreover, the wife doesn't carry anything behind their back, that is, in addition to their food and clothing, there are also things rewarded by the lady. Sometimes when eating, my wife will also ask her to have a table with embroidered oranges. This is an honor that slaves don't have, but she and embroidered oranges and others have.
The most important thing is that the lady has never regarded them as slaves, but as blood relatives.
Others envy that they are wives, and they also speak slowly to them. I'm afraid they will offend their wives. Others say that Mrs. is a very powerful person. In fact, Mrs. treats people very well, but they don't know. Today, Si Zhu was even more shocked to see his wife crying for Sister Xiuju.
Si Zhu made up his mind: Madam, Si Zhu will serve her for the rest of her life, and others can't beat her away.
Si Zhu thought of the beginning of the matter and whispered to Yingchun, "Madam, I heard that Miss Chu is selling herself this time."
"Selling yourself?" After Yingchun repeated this sentence, he began to meditate.
In the past few days, Si Zhu quietly sent the little girls to explore the movement on Chu Jia's side, knowing that Xiuju and others were called by Chu Jia. Although Yingchun always asked, Si Zhu did not dare to tell the truth about Yingchun. He was afraid that Yingchun would have another conflict with Sun Shaozu for this reason and was worried that Yingchun would suffer losses in the end. I just hope that the days will pass soon, and Chu Ju will be put back when she is well.
This day, the little girl hurried to report to Sizhu that the embroidered orange was beaten by Chu. If she didn't go, I'm afraid that the embroidered orange would suffer a big loss.
Si Zhu was in chaos when he heard that, and he couldn't take care of much. He went back to welcome the Spring Festival. Hearing this, he immediately took people to the small study.
Before Yingchun arrived at the outer courtyard of the small study, he heard harsh screams and curses from inside: "You are a slave. You think you are your wife's, and you are gone, aren't you? Even I dare to be perfunctory, and you don't open your dog's eyes to see who I am! Today, if you were killed, the master would not ask half a question.
Then came the sound of the board falling on the body, and some people were covered with their mouths and made a painful "woo" sound.
Yingchun took a step into the yard and saw the embroidered orange tied and pressed to the ground by two women, and the board was falling heavily on the embroidered orange's legs. At this time, the embroidered orange trousers have been soaked with blood.
In the spring, he rushed forward and kicked off the palm board and slapped the two women who were embroidered with oranges one by one. Then he took down the cloth stuffed in the embroidered orange's mouth and held up the embroidered orange's face. The embroidered orange's face was sweaty and her eyes were blurred. She only called "Madam" and fainted.
Yingchun shouted the name of the embroidered orange and quickly asked the little girl to carry the embroidered orange back to her yard. Yingchun slowly stood up, his eyes turned red, and he gritted her teeth and asked Chu Yao, "Why did you beat the embroidered orange like this?"
When Chujiao saw Yingchun's eyes, she was a little timid, but thinking of Sun Shaozu's treatment of her, Chujiao raised her neck and said, "Madam, I asked Xiuju Haosheng to pinch my feet, but she was as light as a mosquito bite. Such an involuntary slave can't care about the master."
"Bulls!" Yingchun scolded: "Is it necessary for her to take the master to heart? She is my person. She doesn't have to care about anyone except me! What are you, don't you look at the five fingers first? Dare to make people embroider oranges!"
Chu Jia was scolded with a black face and raised her face: "Madam, the sale of embroidered oranges is on the master. She is a slave in my house. Not to mention that I am going to be my aunt's master. If I am a girl, I am also qualified to beat her, and I can also afford to beat her."
Yingchun didn't say anything. She went forward and kicked Chujiao to the ground. Chujiao shouted, "Why don't you all come out!"
Many women and girls came out of the room and slowly surrounded Yingchun and others. It seems that Chu Yao had expected that the Spring Festival would come.
Yingchun narrowed his eyes: "What? Are you going to commit a crime together?"
A leading woman bent down slightly to Yingchun and then said, "Madam, please show mercy. Miss Chu is in a good body. We are just respecting the master's words and taking good care of Miss Chu." The implication is that if they really dare to touch Chu Yao in the spring, although they can't fight in the spring, they can protect Chu in the spring. Under the competition, the masters and servants in the spring can't take advantage. And between pulling, it is inevitable that someone deliberately hurts them and infers that they are unintentional.
Yingchun looked up and down at the woman in front of her and asked, "Which one are you?"
The woman glanced at Chujiao and stood up straight and said, "The second maidservant has been serving in the master's study. My second son has a head in front of the master and helps the master in charge of the account."
Yingchun sneered and said, "It's this kind of courage that we have faces together."
Sun Erjia did not defend himself. He smiled and stopped talking.
Yingchun saw that the embroidered orange had been taken away by his own people, he snorted coldly and turned around and took everyone away.
Chu just got up from the ground and shouted loudly behind Yingchun: "Madam is careful with your own people. Today, it's embroidered oranges, and it's not guaranteed that it will be Sizhu and others tomorrow. As long as I want to, the master will definitely follow me. As the master, I can't even protect my favorite slave. It's really chilling!" After shouting, Chu Yao's proud laughter came from the yard.
Yingchun stopped and clenched Si Zhu's hand. Si Zhu was afraid that Yingchun would rush back and immediately said, "Madam, why do you have the same experience as her? Let's go back."
Yingchun turned around and looked back at the small study, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes. For the first time, she hated a person like this. Because of the embroidered orange, she and Chu Juo were determined to be at odds!
