Chapter 2 Burning books, doubts are difficult to solve

The golden branches and jade leaves of the Guogongfu left the bedroom with beautiful scenery. Two maids in blue skirts of the lake water came in. They both held double snail buns. They were generally tall and short, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Suddenly, they looked like a pair of twin sisters. When beautiful scenery saw them, the feeling of rebirth after the disaster became more and more real.

Qiuyue and Qiu Shuang, both grew up with her. They are more like playmates than maids.

Both of them are the granddaughters of Mama Yang, and their birthdays are also at the beginning and end of October. Meijing is very close to them. Unfortunately, the two maids later returned to Chuzhou with Mama Yang. In detail, it seems that it happened in the spring. Since then, the scene has never seen them again.

Qiu Yue held a bowl of dark medicinal soup in her hand, and Qiu Shuang held a small box of preserves in her hand.

One waited on Yijing to take medicine, and the other quickly picked up a piece of preserves and fed it to Yijing's mouth.

"Don't keep what Sanniang said in your heart. Although the old lady punished you the day before yesterday, she was very anxious when she heard that you had suffered a cold. In one day, she sent Linglong's sister to visit several times. She came in person yesterday evening. Wu Niang was asleep at that time, so she didn't know." Qiu Yue is the most virtuous. She knew that there was a grudge in her heart after Yijing was punished. Just now, she was teased by San Niang for fear that she would feel uncomfortable.

Chunmu also said, "Just say that this morning, it was just dawn. Linglong came over again and asked her that she was not hot anymore, so she was relieved to go back to Yuanying Hall."

The words of the two maids made the guilt in Yijing's heart stronger. She only felt that no matter how sweet the preserve in her mouth was, it could not ease the bitterness of the medicinal soup, but no matter how bitter the medicinal soup was, it was not as bitter as the bitterness in her heart.

The reason why she was punished was that she was curious to read a few books such as "Ganding Dongting" and "Mother Couple". I don't know how she was told by her grandmother, so she was punished and asked her to copy an hour's scriptures in the Buddhist hall. The punishment itself was not heavy, but she used to be a pearl in the palm of her grandmother's hand, and she didn't feel that she looked at it. What a big mistake this book is, so I only think that my grandmother made a fuss, and I can't help but blame my grandmother for attacking her in front of her sisters, which makes her unable to wipe her face. Just for gambling, she copied the scriptures all night in the Buddhist hall, and no one persuaded her to leave. That night, there was a rainstorm, and the storm was urgent. In the Buddhist hall It was wet and humid, so I suffered from the cold.

Since this time, her grandmother has been stricter than before. There has been an estrangement between her close grandparents and grandchildren. When she went to Yuanying Hall, she was not as diligent as when she was a child. She often complained a few words in front of her mother. No matter how the mother and the maids around her persuaded her, the gap has not been resolved.

Others say that she is smart, but she is not as transparent as the maids around her. At this time, she hates her former self.

"Spring twilight, bring me those notebooks." Suddenly said.

Chunmu was stunned and advised worriedly, "Wuniang... The old man punished you, so don't read those books."

Yijing did not explain, but stubbornly looked at Chunmu. After all, Chunmu was still helpless. He turned to the study. Qiu Yue and Qiu Shuang were also worried. The two sisters looked at each other and wanted to persuade each other, but they were afraid of making the little master angry, so they bit their lips silently.

"You guys get a brazier and come in." Ying said again.

More worried, Qiu Shuang couldn't help asking, "Wuniang feels cold. It's May. How can she hold the brazier?"

"It's not for heating." Lijing smiled helplessly and felt that her throat was itchy. She couldn't help coughing a few times: "Go and get it. I'm useful."

The three maids were busy looking for the storybook and the end of the fire basin at the end of the fire basin were full of doubts and deep worry. Finally, they stood on one side and looked at each other and looked at each other until they saw the scenery throwing a stack of books into the fire basin. Then they exclaimed together. The oldest spring evening eyes quickly burned the bear. The burning basin moved farther away, for fear that the spark would splash on the beautiful scenery. At the same time, he advised, "This book was found by Houfu Yue Niang to relieve her boredom. If you don't read it, just return it to her another day. Why burn it? If Yue Niang asked, wouldn't she be embarrassed?

Yijing clapped her hands, turned around and sat back on the couch, watched the books turn into ashes, and couldn't help smiling: "She gave it to me, so she wouldn't ask me to go back. What's more, it's not a good book. It's better to burn it clean."

I still remember that in my previous life, these books were taken away by my mother, but she then asked her cousin Huang Jiangyue to find a new one. As soon as she was free, she took them out and looked through them. She really couldn't put them down. She was fascinated by the stories of those talented women and beautiful people in it, and under the flowers and looked forward to

A good man who has the same heart will be in love for a lifetime, and he will win a long time and vigorous.

And there happens to be such a person in her life...

It's true, but it's a great irony.

"There is a story in this book. A boudoir woman knew a childhood sweetheart Langjun. She thought she could marry this Langjun as her wife, but she didn't think that the person she had married became Langjun's brother. The woman cried and begged, but she couldn't marry her favorite lover. I have to marry this Langjun's brother... How can I forget to meet that Langjun every day? So regardless of shame, the woman actually did something immoral with the Langjun... Later, in order to stay with the woman, the Langjun persuaded the woman to poison her brother. The woman was confused by the rhetoric and hoped that she could stay with her beloved for the rest of her life, so she did so... Unfortunately, in the end, she was favored. Before dying, I realized that it was Lang Jun who wanted to swallow the family's wealth alone and used her to poison her brother. Do you think that such a book can't be kept to harm others?

Yi Jing said to the three maids.

Chunmu was frightened and came to her senses after a while: "No wonder Mrs. Wu Niang is not allowed to read this book. This story is also scary. It is also said that the woman is confused. Once she gets married, even if her husband dies, how can she stay with her brother-in-law? It's time to see through the malice of my brother-in-law."

Yes, she couldn't see through such a simple thing at the beginning. There was only lust in her heart, and she couldn't see the man's malice clearly.

Qiu Yue is always a quick talker and blurted out: "This book is also fabricated. If Langjun can be a brother for his family, he is also in a rich and noble family. How can they avoid people's eyes and ears when they want to do such immoral things? Even if she can avoid the eyes of others, there are always a few maids around her who are close to her, and she can't avoid them. The woman was confused by Lang Jun's clever words. Couldn't the maid also be confused, so that no one could see through Lang Jun's face? Remind women of this unavoidable disaster? This book should be burned clean."

After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and went to the brazier: "Don't call this smoke to smoke Wu Niang. I'll take it out and splash this fabricated basin of ashes."

In his ridiculous previous life, he was enlightened at the age of three. He was able to read and understand books. He thought that there was nothing wrong with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It can be seen that he was not as good as the few maids around him, and the smile on the corners of his lips was sarcastic. Unfortunately, these three maids got married and left. None of them stayed with them, only Xia Yun...

"Why didn't you see Xia Yun?" Thinking of the only maid who married the king of Chu's mansion at this time, Ying asked.

"She is guarding to give medicine to Wu Niang." Chunmu said.

Ying Jing couldn't help frowning: "In the future, all my soup and medicinal diet will be handled by Qiu Shuang."

Chunmu was stunned again. He couldn't figure out why the little master suddenly had such an order, but after all, he didn't say anything and just made a promise.

Qiu Yue was right. At the beginning, when she had a private meeting with Yu Zhou in the king of Chu's mansion, she was absolutely unable to hide several maids around her, especially the most trusted Dongyu. In fact, she had to walk around and buy those servants who guarded the door and guarded the wind, so as not to reveal the scandal of her private meeting with Yuzhou. Because of the marriage in the evening of spring, Dongyu was transferred to Lvqingyuan to fill the vacancy. It should be said that she was two years younger than herself, but because she was sharp, she was the best at understanding of her thoughts. However, she won deep trust in a long time. Later, Qiu Yue and Qiu Shuang also left, and she regarded Dongyu more as the most powerful person around her.

I still remember what Dongyu said in a certain month of a certain year: "Wuniang's handwriting is really good. I don't know if I can give it to my maidservants? I'm really envious."

It is thought that since then, ferocious traps have begun to be clothed.

Spring twilight is soft, but Dongyu is different from her. She is the most decisive person. After gaining her trust, she is extremely strict with the maids in the Lvqing Garden. Even several other first-class maids are only her. At that time, she still felt that it was convenient, but she not only ignored it, but also indulged in the power of winter rain. He became the second master of Luqingyuan, and later even became the deputy master of Guan Suiyuan. Even if other maids knew something wrong, they did not dare to cross the winter rain and persuade themselves to say anything.

In the final analysis, I still blame myself, but it's not too late to regret it, because time has begun.

Although I don't know what role Xia Yun played on that Lantern Festival night, I have to guard against her from now on. I don't need a maid around me who only knows how to be inflamed.

Looking back on the past, she faintly sensed that there were still many ferocious faces behind Dongyu and Yuzhou, but she didn't have time to think about it carefully. Her thoughts had been interrupted by the arrival of the Duke's wife Huang.

Huang walked into the bedroom with a kind face, reached out to support her stepdaughter who was preparing to salute, took her hand, looked at her face carefully, and said with a smile, "Is it really relieved? But what else do you feel uncomfortable about?"

"I'm worried about my mother." Yijing's smile was very sweet, sweeping away the haze when recalling the past: "I just have a little cough."

"That's what you hit children." Huang stroked the temples of the beautiful scenery: "The next time I suffer from cold, this cough has dragged on for a long time, but I have to take care of it carefully. Don't eat the hot food these days. I brought you Chuanbei loquat dew, which has been handed over to Chunmu. Remember to take it according to time." Then he talked about what happened just now: "I've already told San Niang, and she doesn't dare to disturb you anymore."

Yijing was a little ashamed: "The third sister came to visit me specially, not to disturb me."

Huang Shi smiled and said, "How can she hide her from me? It's just that I want to come to you, and I heard that I blamed you a few words?"

"It's not an accusation. What the third sister said is reasonable. I'm too capricious and tired to worry about the elders."

"So, you don't blame your grandmother?" Huang also said that his eyes were full of indulgence and love.

Bingjing became more and more ashamed: "How dare you complain about your grandmother? She is all for my sake."

"As long as you can figured it out." Huang patted the back of Yijing's hand: "It's all Qi Niang's fault. I have scolded her and sent her back to Jianning Houfu to let your aunt discipline her well."

The seventh mother in Huang's mouth refers to Huang Jiangyue of Jianning Houfu. She is a cousin of the scenery. Although she is not Jianninghou's daughter, her father is also the direct descendant. Because the wife of Houfu is alive and has not yet separated, Jiang Yue also lives in Houfu with her parents and family. Jiang Yue has a similar temperament and similar age, and the two families are in-laws, so they come and go very frequently.

"In fact, they all blamed me. Earlier, when I heard Qin Wuniang say these words, I felt that the story was novel. Yue Niang said that the fourth cousin had received a lot of similar words, so she asked her for it from the fourth cousin... This was so tired that Yue Niang was also blamed, and maybe the fourth cousin was implicated."

Huang was slightly stunned and thought that she had never seen Wu Niang blame herself so much. After all, this child was taught by the eldest princess. Although he was a little arrogant when he was a child, he became more and more knowledgeable as he grew older.

"It's good that you know your mistakes. You can't read those words again in the future, so that Mrs. will not be angry if you know it." Huang Shi said again, "What about those books? Bring it to me. I can't see it horizontally or vertically anymore.

"With her determination not to read those books anymore, my daughter has burned them all." Yijing said resolutely.

Huang was stunned again. This time, he looked at the scenery carefully: "Don't be so naughty. Give it to me quickly, so that I can teach the old lady to rest assured."

"I was really burned by my daughter... Several maids witnessed it with their own eyes."

At this time, Qiuyue came back with ashes. She happened to hear this and immediately came out to testify to the little master: "Madam, Wu Niang really burned those books. The maidservant just took out the brazier, and there was still some smoke in the room at this time."

Yijing explained very unsatisfactoryly: "Dided by my grandmother, my daughter also felt that it was not worth it. Just now, she was burned in anger, just to make her grandmother feel relieved."

The child seemed to be a little angry. Huang shook his head without thinking about it. He also told Yijing a few dietary taboos. If you don't read too late at night, there will be no delay.

Since the death of the old prince three years ago, the eldest princess has lost the thoughts of the housekeeper. All the big and small affairs in the inner courtyard have been handed over to the Huang family, and only let Mother Yang co-by the side. Huang's son Sanlang Su Qian is only six years old. At this time, she has just been enlightened and divided a lot of thoughts of the Huang family. In addition, once the filial piety period has passed, it is almost gone. Three years after the birth of the eldest princess, this year is a must be entertained, and the little aunt Su Lian has been delayed because of her filial piety. This year is also 18 years old. The marriage is imminent. The eldest daughter Yichen has arrived, and she has to plan for her. These things have made Huang busy and does not have much time to talk to her daughters.

Yijing asked Chunmu to send Huang Shi out, but he called Qiu Yue and Qiu Shuang to come forward and asked about their grandmother, Mother Yang.

The women in the Duke's mansion are equipped with a wet nurse, four first-class maids, eight second-class maids, ten third-class maids, and several rough maids, such as the older wife is also equipped with eight bodyguards, a driver, and several errand girls. The wet nurse fell ill a few years ago, and the eldest princess was dismissed. Yinzi asked her to go home to take care of herself. At that time, Chun Dusk and Xia Yun were still young, and Qiu Yue and Qiu Shuang were still children. The eldest princess was worried and asked Mother Yang to take care of her.

When she was still in Chuzhou, Mother Yang was the maid of the eldest princess. Later, when Dalong founded the country, she became a maid of honor. After that, she came to the palace with the eldest princess and served the princess all the time.

The eldest princess originally wanted to give Mother Yang a good marriage, but she did not want to separate from the eldest princess. It was not until nearly 23 or 4 that she married the big shopkeeper who took care of Rongqingzhai for the government. Qiu Shuang was the daughter of the eldest son of the mother, and Qiu Yue was the daughter of the second son. The two were actually cousins.

Yi Jing vaguely remembers that at the beginning, M Mother Yang's youngest son did something and bullied the people outside. Not to mention the defendant officials, and the imperial history impeached his father's indulgence of domestic slaves because of this. Although he had not caused any trouble, M Mother Yang felt ashamed of her grandmother and stayed in Jinyang, and the whole family returned to Chuzhou. I haven't seen them since.

Three years ago, since Mother Yang began to associate with the housekeeper of the Duke's wife, there has been no steward beside Mi Jing. Because the eldest princess spoiled the scenery, she was worried and casually picked a person and thought about it. Later, she saw that although Chunmu was not old, she was a steady and cautious maid, and simply let her He was responsible for the big and small affairs in Luqingyuan and did not arrange for the stewman to come in.

Of course, this situation has changed with the marriage in the evening of spring.

Looking back on the past, I felt more and more that what had happened in those years was strange. It seemed that someone had been thinking about it step by step in order to finally gain her trust in order to finally gain her trust. It was also in order to understand the doubts of happy people that they wanted to talk to the Qiu Shuang sisters.

"Grandma is in good body, but she is very busy, so she can't visit Wu Niang often." Naturally, Qiu Yue didn't know the thousands of turns in Jingjing's mind, and only answered in a crisp voice.

"I seem to remember that M Mother mentioned that you still have a little uncle?" Ying asked again.

Qiu Yue didn't think much at all, but still replied crisply, "The little uncle of the slave maidservant is working for his grandfather in Rongqingzhai. Yesterday, he also entrusted someone to bring a box of pineapple cakes in to relieve Qiu Shuang's cravings.

Qiushuang laughed and said, "I don't know whose stomach the box of pineapple cake finally went into. Why did it relieve my ty?"

Qiu Yue put on a grimace and said to Yijing, "Wuniang doesn't know that the little uncle loves Qiu Shuang the most. If I hadn't lied to him that Qiu Shuang loved pineapple cake, he wouldn't have ignored me."

"Good little girl, use my name to cheat my uncle to eat, and in turn say these sour words. We are all uncle's nieces. How can there be a difference between relatives?"

Seeing that they were fighting with each other, the heaviness in her heart eased a little. While enviing the sad time of the cardamom girl, she asked, "It sounds like your little uncle is not very old."

This time, Qiu Shuang replied, "I'm 20 years old, but my grandmother also said that he was not stable enough, like a 15- or 6-year-old hairy child."

"Why doesn't Mami kiss him for him?"

"The little uncle is very ambitious. He said that if he didn't earn his own family business, he would not find a wife. Some time ago, he planned to worship Rong Qingzhai's master to learn craftsmanship. He wanted to open his own shop in the future. His grandfather knew that he would scold him and said he would betray his master." Qiu Yue was straightforward, but Qiu Shuang was more secure. She quickly pulled her sister and carefully explained, "Wuniang, the little uncle is just talking, and he doesn't really want to open a shop."

The scene laughed: "Even if your little uncle really opened his own shop, it doesn't matter, and the government does not rely on Rongqingzhai to support it. Besides, Rongqingzhai has been taken care of by your grandfather for many years. Grandma originally wanted to reward your family in the future." He thought to himself, it seems that Mother Yang, the youngest son, is not an idle person. How could he suddenly bully the people? This is really strange.

If Mother Yang hadn't felt guilty about her son's affairs, she would never have left Jinyangjing, and Qiu Yue and Qiu Shuang would not have left her side. If they were here, it would not be easy for Dongyu to be alone. After all, she would not be easily alienated by others.

More importantly, if Mother Yang had been in the state government in her previous life and later married, her grandmother would definitely let her accompany her. With her side, it may be difficult to carry out Yuzhou's conspiracy. Even if she can't let go of her feelings for him, under the supervision of Mother Yang, she can't do anything to commit fornication with others, let alone She will be so confused that she will be used by others, become a vicious woman who poisoned her own husband, and end up being afraid of suicide.

When I think of Yu Zhou, there is a colic in my heart, but there is only hatred.

He said that he once really admired him, but has his admiration changed since then?
