Chapter 55 sneaky

There was a drizzle outside the window, and the ninth sister held her head and looked at the rain falling from the eaves listlessly, with a trace of sadness on her face.

The third sister embroidered her wedding dress and looked up at the ninth sister from time to time, thinking that she was considering whether to be on the second wife's side.

The ninth sister sighed, looked around the room, and finally fell on the raindrops outside the window.

Jinxiu stood obediently behind the ninth sister, folded her hands around her waist, as if she was ready to do something for the ninth sister all the time.

She didn't let the painting screen follow these days, just because sometimes she wanted Jinxiu to come up with ideas for herself when she was confused. Naturally, the painting screen also knew that Sister Jiu had been depressed recently, so she told Jinxiu to do some things to pay attention to, so she began to do embroidery work in Dongyuan with her mother Feng.

"Draw the screen, please help me see how to get a needle here. I always feel that there is a gap in what I used to do." Mother Feng frowned and moved the cloth into the eye of the painting screen.

I only took a look at the picture screen, but patiently told Feng's mother his opinion.

Mother Feng couldn't help praising that the painting screen is really skillful, but unfortunately there is really no city government, and no wonder Sister Jiu will...

She looked at the cloth on the painting screen on her leg and laughed: "Today, the cloth you embroidered is all made of good needles, threads and cotton cloth, but this color is not suitable for women."

The face of the painting screen suddenly turned red and whispered, "Occasionally, I did some rough work, so I bought brown cloth."

Obviously, the explanation of the drawing screen is full of loopholes. Which maid will wear good cloth to do rough work? However, Feng's mother did not make it clear, but silently continued to embroider her purse.

It was raining continuously outside the window, and my heart fluttered on the painting screen. The time seemed to be very long, and I was afraid that Feng's mother would continue to ask questions.

The door creaked, and Yao's mother took away the umbrella and said, "The rain is not over yet. How will it be good when Sister Jiu comes back for lunch? It must be cold to take the food from the kitchen."

"Let's just have a day in the small kitchen, and there will be some flour and eggs. After that, we will cook a bowl of egg noodles for Sister Jiu, and it will be warm after eating." Feng's mother put the sewing basket on the table and handed Yao's mother a dry handkerchief.

Yao's mother dusted the raindrops on her clothes and echoed, "Yes, Sister Jiu has been getting better and better recently, and she can also eat some meat. I'll go to the kitchen and get some meat later." She dusted the raindrops on her body and complained, "It's already spring, but it suddenly gets cold. If it were in Zhejiang, even if it rained, the temperature would not drop."

Mother Feng smiled and said, "Sister Yao, you have to get used to the weather in the capital. Isn't it the same as before? I'd better go to the kitchen later. Mother Li and I are sisters and won't embarrass me.

Yao's mother's hand paused. Recently, the ninth sister has not been favored. Although people will not do anything to the ninth sister or deduct the food and clothing of the ninth sister, the servants around the ninth sister must not be ridiculed.

"Then bother Sister Feng." Yao's mother said politely. She is kind. After she saw that Feng's mother is sincerely a ninth sister, she is called a sister to Feng's mother, and some things will not hide anything. After all, they are all nine sisters.

Mother Feng cleaned up the needle and thread, and it was almost noon, so she ordered Yao's mother to rush to the kitchen with an umbrella.

Come out of the warm room, a cold wind blew, and it was indeed a little cold. However, Feng's mother didn't mind much. She pressed the umbrella lower and occasionally dropped a few drops of rain on her clothes.

Mother Feng used to be a celebrity beside the old lady, but now she has gone to the ninth sister. People like Li, who are mixed in the kitchen steward, can probably guess some of the thoughts of the old lady, so she told the cooks and little girls in the kitchen to be energetic and not to annoy Mother Feng.

When Li's mother saw Feng's mother, she stood up and greeted her with a smile, "Sister Feng, why didn't you come here until dinner?"

"Come and get some dishes. The weather is not good today, so we will have a meal in the kitchenette." Feng's mother took away the umbrella and quarreled with Li's mother.

"Today, I'm free. The owners of each room said that they would do it in their own yard. Now the ninth sisters haven't gone to school. Why don't we have a meal here?"

"No, in case Sister Yijiu comes back hungry, I can't afford to be a subordinate."

When Li's mother saw that Feng's mother had no intention of staying, she did not intend to leave Li's mother reluctantly. She just picked a piece of chicken breast and put it in a cleaned empty basket. "I heard that Sister Jiu doesn't like to eat much, and the tenth brother doesn't like to eat very much. Occasionally, I added some pigs to the tenth brother's dishes [Note 1]. The effect is good. Today, when I went to buy vegetables, I took some more. I'll give it to Sister Jiu. Chop it with the chicken breast and stir-fry it. Let's say noodles with meat sauce, as long as you don't put dog dog dogfish [Note 2].

Mother Feng couldn't close her mouth with a smile, "I just thank you."

Mother Li smiled and said, "I just feel sorry for the child." She lowered her voice and said in a voice that Feng's mother could hear, "I think you are still the same as me. Don't get into the affairs of the masters. We will still be servants who will suffer in the future. I really think of you as a sister to say that.

Feng's mother said bitterly, "I don't know, but I'm not like Sister Li. In this kitchen, except for the old lady and the second wife, as long as I want to eat something good, I have to come to please you. You don't have to care about your masters. With the money, you still live a comfortable life.

Li's mother immediately smiled, "At the beginning, I asked you to take care of the kitchen with me, but you refused, so you had to go to the old lady's place to squeeze. No, you were still taken advantage of by Ge."

"Please say less. Mother Ge is also serving the old lady with us."

Li's mother didn't agree. She took a few pleasant green vegetables and put them in the basket and put them in Feng's mother's hands. "Take it away. I don't care what happens in the future."

Mother Feng just smiled and didn't say anything. She held up an umbrella and went into the rain.

She bypassed a garden and rushed back to Dongyuan from the path behind the corridor, but saw a very familiar figure sneaking into a remote place with an umbrella.

After thinking about it, Feng's mother decided to follow, but went around to the back door. She stopped at the corner and saw the maid take out a pair of brand-new shoes and a beautifully embroidered purse from her arms and gave them to the doorkeeper. He handed over another piece of silver and a letter and said a few words, but his expression was always faint.

Mother Feng opened her mouth in surprise, but pressed down the sound that had reached her throat and hurriedly left.
