Chapter 6 Days Without Men
Sure enough, in the Buddhist hall, the sandalwood smoke curled. She knelt in front of the Buddhist shrine alone, dressed in snow, and looked more and more weak.
It is always pitiful to have a beauty like this.
The sound of the wooden fish can't dispel the obsession in her heart.
I also knelt quietly. But she was aware of it and muttered, "Master?" But he didn't look back, only his shoulders trembled slightly.
Presumably, she also knows that the person behind her is not the person she is looking forward to.
I coughed twice and smiled, "Madam, I went out again this morning."
After a long time, it came to answer quietly: "Yes. He left again."
"Madam, you see, this is the account book that the master wants me to make in three days. The master is not here. Why don't you have a look?"
She remembered tremblingly. I saw the white clothes trembling and hurried to help her. Is your wife's leg numb? Come..."
She seemed to push me away, but she had no strength and sat on a chair on one side against my hand. Let's show him this account book when he comes back.
I bowed my head, "It's okay."
In an instant, she seemed to have turned back to the lady, with a gentle smile and kindness to me in her eyes: "What happened last time was also what I believed. I almost misunderstood you."
"What are you talking about, madam? My wife didn't do anything wrong me. How can my concubine complain?"
I'm not a steamed bun, but my wife really had a promotion for me before. If it hadn't been for her - I, an ordinary aunt, and without the master's favor, my bones would have been eaten. She treated me like that this time, but it's okay from her standpoint. Besides, there is really no loss!
"Fortunately, the master is wise and returned your innocence." She frowned, as if she were extremely puzzled, "But how could Aunt Jiu be such a person?"
I also lowered my head and sighed: "Thanks to the master, she usually loves her so much!"
Aunt Jiu was the last to enter the door. Originally, she was an actor in the troupe, but she just appeared on the stage to sing a discount, and was taken back home by the master. When she was just accepted, she really had a sweet day.
"I heard that the master fell in love with her with Mr. Jiang that day. That's why there is such a misunderstanding now. My wife's tone was still so kind, but my aunt quit: "misunderstanding? She doesn't keep the woman's way at all!"
Although, as the old saying goes, every good woman is actually eager not to follow the woman's way, who made my aunt too seize the opportunity...
I turned my head and thought for a moment, and then looked at it. I felt that the peerless beauty in front of me was really a flower given to Situ Xiang, which fell on something.
"Madam, do you blame the master?" After holding it for a long time, I couldn't hold it back and suddenly spit it out.
I thought that if I were her, I would definitely complain. The wife was originally the daughter of the owner of Lingyun City and the first beauty of Lingyun City. She married the master, but the master never stepped into the Xueyun Pavilion. However, she is so gentle and virtuous. If I were a man, I couldn't help pitying the jade. How can she not complain?
She pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled more than the splendor of the mountain flowers: "Second aunt thinks that I should complain?"
She just smiled and asked me, "Do you think I should complain?"
As an aunt who is occasionally not very temperamental, I really can't figure out my wife's feelings. I turned my head and touched my head: "The wife and the master are a perfect match, but the master is indeed a little romantic."
"Do you think the master is romantic?" She smiled.
I nodded incessantly.
If the master is not romantic in Lingyun City, there will be no romantic people.
A trace of sarcasm suddenly appeared on his wife's face, "You all think he is romantic..."
Why can't I feel that he is romantic? I frowned: "What do you mean, madam?"
She shook her head: "It's not interesting. At present, the master is not here, so just take good care of the accounts. I'm usually weak, and I want you to watch more in this backyard.
I have been back to Xiangyiyuan, and I still wonder what my wife said. But soon I left these behind. There were so many things that I really didn't have time to guess what my wife's daughter was thinking. Although I have a heart of pity, I don't have the power of jade - the Lord is still free and happy outside. My aunt can only take good care of the backyard and share my worries for my wife, which is my loyalty.
It was Xiao Cui who opened the door. When she saw me, her face turned pale. I feel: Who dares to annoy her? Then he smiled and said, "Did Xiaochao bully you?" She stamped her feet: "Master, don't joke. It's pissed me off."
"What's wrong?" I looked at her playfully.
"I don't know if I don't check it. I was shocked. There are so many pickled things in this yard."
Xiao Hong sighed, quietly closed the yard door, sent down the little maids, and then said, "Xiao Cui, you are also more reckless. Don't you know that many of the maids in this yard have backstage? You can't underestimate the private friendship of the maids.
Xiao Cui's mouth pouted: "Is it just that they deceive their masters so much?"
Seeing that the matter was serious, I hurried back to the wing room and sat down and said, "You can tell me in detail."
"In the yard, the third aunt's family is rich, the fourth aunt's family is precious, and the sixth aunt has a lady. Only the fifth aunt, the seventh aunt and the eighth aunt are ordinary, and the master is not spoiled. The matter is in the yard of these three aunts."
Well, many aunts are really too confused. The old man is really lustful.
I touched my chin: "slow! Let me guess. Are the maids in the three courtyards bullied the master and received money, but they were full of selfishness instead?
"Yes, master! How do you know! And the last time Aunt Jiu said that five taels of silver was only two taels in her hand. I was surprised how I dared to deduct so much, at most 500 yuan, and just teach her a lesson. How could anyone else do this, but spilled dirty water on the master! I just thought that the aunts in those three yards must listen to people all day long about how to deduct silver from our second room. Can they not blame the second aunt? This kind of second aunt is too jealous of these people. Can she have good fruit to eat? Even my aunt's silver dares to be deducted, and those little maids are even more amazing. Our third-class maid's silver is 100 yuan, but it's good to get 40 yuan in hand!"
Looking at her indignant appearance, I frowned, "How did you find out?"
"The housekeepers told me. They all say so... Master, Xiao Hong, what's wrong?"
I winted at Xiaohong, and she explained softly: "In this, the housekeepers are not clean. Seeing that the incident was about to happen, he pushed everything to the big girl who received the silver. How could you listen to the bias?
"Oh, Xiao Cui, when will you be mature?" I threw myself on the table.
I am very resentful, thinking that Xiao Cui is my aunt's dowry maid and a real mother's family. Although the maid is a distant relative who has been completely depressed, she sent her daughter before getting married. My aunt's family is not rich. My father thought it would be good to have a loyal maid, but in the end, he gave twice the money to buy the maid. How did you know it was such a character!
But my aunt changed her mind and insisted on encouragement: "Xiao Cui, if you have it, you can change it. If you don't, you can encourage it."
"Wow--" Xiao Cui cried. I panicked.
"Xiao Cui, Xiao Cui, don't scare me!" I looked at Xiaohong again. Xiaohong also hung her hands and looked at a loss.
Xiao Cui wiped away her tears, and her eyes flashed stubbornness: "I will definitely get stronger! I won't lose face to my master!" I was embarrassed to see her so serious.
I touched my nose: "Auntie loves your naive personality!" Then he became annoyed: "What should I do now? There are so many things."
"In this backyard, they really have to take care of it. No matter what, they don't know who is the housekeeper!" Xiao Cui still choked.
"There are also people in Aunt Jiu's yard who haven't been dealt with yet. The wife gave all these things to the master, and the master had to do it properly. Xiao Hong added a detailed sentence.
I sighed: "Yes."
&&&&&*&&&
The next day, Xiangyiyuan was quite lively, which was different from the usual desert, which can be described as people coming and going. I wondered, "Why do you even come to the third aunt, the fourth aunt and the sixth aunt?"
"Because the master is not at home, they are bored!"
Yes, aunts are really boring. The wife ignored us, and the master was not at home. If you want to do some beneficial activities, such as finding a man to fall in love or something, it is risky - and you will know that Aunt Jiu is too rejected by others. Although a lover finally got married, it is clear that she has changed from a good concubine to a lowly concubine. This concubine, even in the Jiang family, has no status.
Of course, I don't guarantee that these aunts don't envy Aunt Nine who is too loved by men.
