Chapter 158: Come to the door!
In a few days, the embroidery workshop began to hand over some important work here. These embroidery products are already valuable in terms of texture, not to say that their requirements are even more shocking.
However, with the help of this kind-hearted ghost, Zichu and cinnamon always passed the test. After a long time, the two also had a little familiarity and intimacy with this mysterious female ghost.
Anyway, the two have no plans now. The only valuable belongings in Zhiweitang are those silver tickets, which have been sewn in their close-fitting clothes. So much so that later, sometimes when she went to bed at night, even the door of the inner room was not tarded, which was a convenience for this female ghost, saving her some effort and everyone's convenience!
Seven or eight days passed in a kind of isolated peace. This morning, she was also unlucky. As soon as she walked out of the door of Zhiwei Hall with the embroidery embroidered the night before, she saw an old lady with her nostrils coming towards her, followed by two big maids with a tricky and fierce face.
The three were stunned when they saw Zichu in front of the door, because in the morning light, her face was like peach blossoms, and her eyes were as delicate as dewdrops. In this way, where does it look like a person who stayed up late and did a night's work?
After all, the old Mister has seen the world at a young age. She immediately reacted and said strangely, "Who do I think I am!" So it's Miss Song! Is the old man worried that he can't find the person responsible for this? You just sent it! Humph, the five sets of clothes handed in by my wife yesterday are all in urgent need of work. What do you mean by pressing them?! Madam has lost her temper. Please give me an explanation today!"
Zichu yawned in her face and asked gently, "Who is your wife?"
Relying on the prestige of her master, the old Mister has been in the East Palace for many years. She has never been so lightly ignored. She immediately jumped like thunder and scolded. Words such as fox spirits, coquettish hooves, shameless bitches and so on poured out like running water. The two maids saw that the old maids opened her mouth and were not willing to show weakness.
Hearing the noise, people nearby also rushed over one after another. As soon as they saw that the mother-in-law next to Mrs. Shen came to make trouble, they knew it. They all stood aside with a lively posture, talking and laughing, pointing, and from time to time a few words of cynicism.
When Zichu saw the three people's scolding water splashing and spitting, he asked Guipi inexplicably, "Is there something wrong with the three of them? I don't ask who the wife in their mouths is. Are they so excited?"
Cinnamon also has some contact with people all over the East Palace these days. Seeing this, he quickly took a little silver and found a face he knew in the crowd. After asking a few questions, he whispered the beginning and end of the matter to Zichu.
It turns out that the women in the backyard of the East Palace will be given a sum of money to buy jewelry and clothes by the princess Zhang according to their respective identities and grades every year.
In front of us, these three are the people in the Shen family's aunt's room. They have received 300 taels of annual holiday money and four sets of clothes this year, but they still don't think it's enough. They insist that they should give 500 taels and add five sets of clothes to be embroidered.
seemed to say a few words to her. Before the broom in her hand took action, someone took action from behind and knocked the three people down.
Zichu and cinnamon both looked at each other and thought what was going on? Could it be the kind-hearted ghost who lives in this yard and comes to help?
Hey, in this way, this ghost is really a kind-hearted ghost!
Besides, the old maid and two maids were knocked to the ground by a strong yin wind. They were in pain and howled immediately. The old sister was also tough. While screaming, she cursed at Zichu. Her mouth was not clean, but a lot of swear words jumped out.
In fact, when Zichu looked at their rough skin and thick flesh, they would not be hurt even if they fell to the ground. At most, it was not easy on their faces, but listening to the pig-killing sound and the deliberate movement of rolling on the ground, he knew that these people were purely looking for trouble and didn't stop making trouble.
In this case, why should you be polite to these unruly slaves? He is just a guest in the East Palace, that is, Jun Yu doesn't like him. Can he still be bullied by several slaves?
Thinking of this, Zichu picked up some mung bean skins that were ready to be used as pillows in the yard and sprinkled them on the three people. While scattering, he said, "Oh! How can you turn over my mung bean skin? These are the pillows I'm going to use! What a pity, what a pity!"
The cinnamon peel looked like this, so it picked up a dustpan and dried half of it. It was the very prickly locust leaves that spilled them together. There are half-length hair on this locust leaf, and as soon as it pricks people's skin, itching is unbearable. After being stabbed like this, the three people finally couldn't help but get up from the ground. They didn't roll or just care about crying. Instead, they hurried to stroke the leaves on their bodies and scolded, "Bah! What the hell are these? Ouch, it's really uncomfortable to prick people!"
Zichu looked at the good play in front of him coldly and said to them, "Why don't you get out of here? Don't blame me for not reminding you that these things are only stuck in your skin now. If you don't go back to find a basin of water to wash them well, then your whole body will be red and swollen. Humph, scratch again? If you scratch carefully for a while, your old skin will be scratched off!"
Hearing Zichu's words, all three of them were very scared. Especially the two young maids, how can they not cherish their thin skin and tender meat at such an age? I heard that this thing will ruin the skin after it plunges in. At present, it is so scared that it will quickly get up and run out.
Seeing that the two little maids were scared away by the quilt, the old woman spit out the saliva mixed with mud and sand in her mouth and said with hatred, "Buntie, when the prince receives you, let's see my wife expose your skin!"
The "bbit" made Zichu feel uncomfortable. Seeing that the old lady was so abominable, she remembered the past when her master almost pushed herself to the ground on the night of Qixi Festival, so she picked up a dustpan acacia leaves next to her again and covered the old lady happily one after another!
When the woman saw that she could not please her in front of Zichu, she was also angry and prepared to leave. As she scratched the itchy part of her body, she scolded and walked out. Who knew that when he arrived at the threshold, he stepped on a stone full of moss and suddenly fell like a pig's head.
"Hahaha! Miss, how embarrassed she is! Hahaha! That's so funny!"
The cinnamon smiles back and forth, which is very happy. Zichu also smiled, then took her hand, bowed deeply in the direction of the inner room, and said respectfully, "Thank you for your help. I and Guipi, thank you!"
