Chapter 23 The Master is coming back
This trip to Jintai Temple was frightened in the end, but the thunder and rain were small. Toss me to...
My aunt hasn't taken a breath yet, and the fourth aunt has celebrated her birthday. My wife didn't say anything about this birthday, but I, as the housekeeper's aunt, still had to say something. Then she set up a banquet in her court and called all the sisters in the first courtyard together.
Life in this backyard is really boring. In addition to eating and sleeping, a group of women gather together, embroider, watch plays, enjoy spring, chat and gossip... Of course, a qualified aunt like my aunt also wants to open a poetry club or something. It is also a beautiful thing to imitate the boudoir talents of the previous generation. Unfortunately, no one agrees.
The fourth aunt is really well dressed. Her clothes are unusual satin, and I haven't even worn them. My eyes kept floating on this shirt. When she said that sentence, the tea in my mouth almost sprayed out--
"The master is finally coming back."
A beautiful face, even the eyes are wet. It's in vain that I donated 200 taels of silver in the temple and kowtowed dozens of heads in front of Buddha. As long as the master is safe, everything is worth it.
Two hundred taels of silver... The corners of my eyes twitched. No wonder those bald donkeys don't pay attention to these 300 taels.
However, looking at the faces of others, as the second aunt of Situ's mansion, I was not the first to know that the master was coming back.
I suppressed the idea of digging my ears: "Fourth sister, is this news serious?" The old man is not at home, and the family is jumping. But when he came back, I'm afraid he would be even more restless.
The fourth aunt's face was a little flushed, as if she was extremely complady: "That's natural. I won't joke about the master's affairs.
This fourth aunt comes from a prominent background, and there may be other ways. When she said this, it was true.
"When will the master come back? Has he done everything in Jingzha City? The fifth aunt didn't even have melon seeds. She asked. The other aunts also looked at the fourth aunt, but the third aunt lowered her eyes slightly, as if she had received a letter before.
I also had to pretend to be eager: "This master, did you bring the tenth aunt back?" It's always bad to be too out of touch with everyone. My aunt should also take appropriate care of the master's whereabouts. It's just that my aunt has always been more practical. Instead of worrying about when the old man will come back, it's better to care about whether he wants to come back with a flower powder. As an aunt who is in charge of the housekeeper, she is always worried.
It's just that as soon as I said this, why did everyone change their faces?
I touched my nose and smiled, "I don't mean anything else. Our master is romantic and naturally loves his daughter's family a lot. It's just a pity for those flowery girls.
The fifth aunt's nose was crooked: "Second sister, don't talk so badly!"
Isn't this master so unbearable? My aunt is so puzzled - isn't the most famous prodigal in Lingyun City his Uncle Situ? But looking at the covex of everyone in the room, I had to laugh quickly and said, "I miss the master too much. How can the master be such a person? In fact, my aunt is too jealous!" I was not blushing and my heart was "jealous", but I saw that everyone's faces were even stranger. Only the fifth sister said bluntly: "The master has never been to your room. What kind of vinegar do you have?"
This...
Is my aunt despised? Sure enough, in a yard, without the favor of an old man, he is despised. I was very resentful, so I had to smile bitterly, "Yes, my aunt is not favored by the master, but my aunt did not break the Dingyao celadon bottle given by the master. When the master comes back, I will say it. I looked at the roof and the ground. No wonder I'm stingy. The celadon bottle of this kiln, especially the one that has been hidden for hundreds of years, is very expensive.
The fifth aunt bit her silver teeth and said hatefully, "Didn't you also break one?"
I opened my eyes wide: "Do you have any? Do you have it? Xiao Cui, did I break the vase?
"Master, of course you don't have it. That bottle was broken by the fifth aunt. Fifth aunt, you can't rely on our master. Counting it, you have broken two. Tut-tut." The little girl shook her head, "This porcelain is so expensive, but the two fifth aunts are not enough to pay for it."
Xiao Cui! You are presumptuous! How can you compare the fifth aunt to porcelain!" I'm furious.
The little girl was scared away: "Master, I'm wrong. How can the fifth aunt be as valuable as porcelain!"
This is very true. My aunt turned angry and happy. She looked at the second aunt kindly and said with a smile, "This is my girl who is ignorant. The master loves your sister the most. He definitely doesn't care about these two porcelain bottles. It made her face blue and white.
Alas, it's really boring. If it were the third aunt and the fourth aunt, the color would definitely not change. Sure enough, he came from a lowly background. How can a large family replace their aunt with a porcelain bottle? Our family is immortal, and we have enough money to spend on women. Since he has given her something, how can he care about such a bottle? At that time, as long as she coaxes the master, nothing will be done?
Humph! Unfortunately, in this backyard, the most unfavorable person is the wife, the second is my aunt, and the third is the fifth aunt with a big cake face. She doesn't dare to be presumptuous!
It's just that the immortal is coming back, and life is very boring. Although these aunts won't torment me like this. It's just that that person... is not a fuel-efficient lamp!
"Oh, fifth sister, I suddenly remembered what you told us before to beg my aunt to go to the people in the yard. Why don't you go to rehearsal?" I smiled again and said, "Yes, today is a good day for the fourth sister. You can sing for a while."
The fifth aunt's face didn't look good, and she just put up with it. She patted her forehead and pretended that she suddenly remembered: "I'm going back to rehearsing. I'm leaving." Yes, go back and rehearsed your "Haunting the Heavenly Palace". As soon as the master was happy, he gave Enlu... What came to my mind was the scene that the old man was too intimate with the fifth aunt dressed as the Monkey King, which was really ecstatic - even if a hundred spring-Gongtu was exchanged with me, I didn't follow it.
The rest of the people laughed once. The eighth sister said anxiously, "The second sister still bullies people so much."
I shook my head, unspeakable.
The third aunt suddenly said, "Master, it's amazing to go out this time. But..." The voice gradually fell down.
The fourth aunt also seemed to be worried and sighed. The rest of them looked confused - didn't the master just go out to look for flowers and ask Liu? What else has happened? I asked again, but refused to say.
What I hate most is this kind of trick. It aroused people's appetite, but didn't say anything. Thinking of the moth made in the backyard a few days ago, the trip to Jintai Temple was really clean enough! I pretend to be stupid, but I'm not really stupid!
The third aunt and the fourth aunt are good, although they don't know what's going on, at least they are good. Both the sixth aunt and eighth aunt are quiet and peaceful, but the old lady never look down on them. The seventh aunt has a little charming color of jasper, and the master usually does not reject it. No matter how bad the fifth aunt is, she is shameless and fierce! Who can pass her? After thinking about it, the poorest person in this backyard is me!
In Jintai Temple, this group of people were not with me and deliberately left me alone - they almost made such a thing. Do you think I really don't know?
Although I didn't suffer losses in the end and ate other people's tofu... However, this anger can't be suffered in vain! Anyway, my aunt is not at fault! Those who are at fault are all these ambitious and cruel aunts!
I'm not powerful, and that's not a sick cat!
I smiled and said, "Last time at Jintai Temple, I saw my fifth sister worshipping Guanyin, but it was a request."
The fifth aunt had left a long time ago, and the other Shanghao, only the fourth aunt's face changed - she had two births. Every time she talks about the child, her face will be a little pale - so, although the girl is the only flesh of Situ Xiang, she is not very close.
The third aunt is not very happy - she also gave birth once.
Where is it so easy to give birth to children in the backyard of Situ Mansion? Only a big stupid girl like the fifth aunt will think that she can give birth to a child with the old man's Enlu!
"Second sister, don't talk about the fifth sister. Do you also want to have a baby?" Eighth aunt covered her mouth and smiled. I looked at her - she is the kindest person in this backyard. For food, I deducted other people's food and didn't deduct her. - I really don't want to believe that she is also counting on my bad luck.
I laughed and said, "Eight sister, don't talk nonsense. The master doesn't like me the most. It's not that you don't know. After a pause, I said, "All sisters should know me. As for me, I am the most unpopular with the master, and I will not compete with you for favor. But it's not plainly given to others. If people don't offend me, I won't offend them. If someone bullies me, I won't make her happy.
"Who dares to bully the second sister?" The sixth aunt smiled in surprise.
No one is bullied, it's best.
"Master is coming back soon. Although he doesn't like to see me, at least I'm in charge of the account, if..." I only said half of my words. Others may not know, but Xiaohong and Xiao Cui know best that I have been standing in the backyard for so many years. Is it a white rice? The old immortal is all bad, and one thing is good - as long as I beg him, he will always make the decision for me.
It's just that such a noble person as my aunt, why beg him? Make him laugh for nothing! I forgot to say that his favorite thing is my joke. Every time before he agrees to my request, he must torture and laugh at me--
As an aunt who is often lack of integrity, she still needs to be proud in front of such a villain!
It's a little dark, and my aunt can also go home. Just before leaving, let's put down a sentence--
"Everyone knows what happened at Jintai Temple that day. If I tell the master, I'm afraid no one will please him!" I'm sure no one will see the scene in the peach blossom forest! If you talk about this seriously, it's Aunt Mei who hurt me, and this group of women in the house are accomplices - I said to the immortal, he will be very happy to make some noise in the backyard!
