The clever maid of the red mansion

In fact, people like Shenwu General's Mansion do not have a serious mother-in-law, and the age difference between the sisters-in-law and sister-in-law is very different, and it is easy to get along with each other.

One of the biggest advantages is that there is no mother-in-law who sees that the son treats the daughter-in-law better, and uses the excuse of helping the son to make things difficult for the daughter-in-law, as if the son is a cripple.

Of course, there was an exception for Second Master Bao who had to wait for tea in the middle of the night.

But everyone has a group of servants and women, and there is such an outstanding son-in-law, so there is no one who does not miss it.Especially now that Mr. Feng is also considered to be making progress, the third grandmother sparrows are flying on the branches... They are all sparrows now, why can't I if she can fly up,

At that time, it will be natural to be rich, luxurious and rich, which is very different from being a maid. This kind of temptation, despite many bloody negative examples, is still not afraid of hardships and dangers.

This day, the second sister-in-law Zhang's natal sister-in-law came to see her, and Zhang invited Liu'er over.In fact, they are just relatives of everyone, they are familiar with each other, and in disguise, it is Zhang's recognition of Liu'er.One must know that Mrs. Zhang has always been somewhat noble, and ordinary people don't pay much attention to her. The two young mistresses in the long room are not very popular with her.

Zhang's sister-in-law, Grandma Zhang, is in her 40s, well-behaved, with gentle eyebrows and eyes, and is a standard official mistress.With her daughter, a handsome girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, who was sitting with Feng Yu and talking about herself, she looked like a well-bred lady.Especially this girl, her eyes lit up when she saw Liu'er entered.

Everyone met each other's greetings, the girl served tea, and only served sherbet to Liu Er, Zhang smiled and said, "Sit down, the cushions here are soft, now you are not as good as before, I have been wronged here, the third brother can find you Mine is not."

Liu'er's face was reddish when she made fun of her, because there were outsiders, she couldn't say much, so she just reproached, "Second sister-in-law will make fun of her." That's all.

"This is my girl, Lan Ya, called Third Aunt." Grandma Zhang introduced her daughter, pointing to her.

Zhang Lanya hurriedly went up to greet Liu'er, the curiosity in her eyes couldn't be concealed.When Liu'er saw her, she had to say politely, "Young girl has good looks and good temperament... Anyway, I am also an elder, and I don't have any good things on me now. I think a little girl like you would look down on those gold and silver things." Yes." As he said, he untied a small pouch from his waist, and a pair of small carps were embroidered with gold and silver thread on the moon white feather gauze, which was simple and chic.The important thing is that since the little girl saw the purse, she has been staring at it.

Zhang Yalan was overwhelmed, a little embarrassed, turned to look at her mother.Grandma Zhang nodded slightly, Fang thanked her and took it, happily took it, and looked at it head to head with Feng Yu, seeing nothing else in her eyes.Feng Yu took out a handkerchief that Liu Er gave her a few days ago, compared the two sides, and commented in a low voice.

Grandma Zhang apologized, "As a girl, I really don't care much about rouge, gouache, hair, face and jewelry. Xijing, besides reading, she does needlework, and she likes to put her heart into it. To be honest, she has been caring for me for a long time. Bring her over to see the third grandma, but at that time I just heard that you were pregnant, so it was not easy to bother, but now it is really unbearable. Now that you come here rashly, please don't be offended."

"What did Grandma say, we are all relatives, so it's better to come and go frequently. Anyway, I can't go out now, you guys are here, just to talk to relieve boredom, but I took advantage of it." Liu Er laughed hurriedly. on the road.

Both Zhang's sister-in-law and sister-in-law who were talking about it suddenly laughed, Zhang felt that Liu'er could talk, and nodded secretly in her heart. Her sister-in-law didn't need to say anything, and her attitude became more kind when she heard the words. She nodded and said, "Don't call her a little girl. Even at my age, I am very curious. I heard that the scriptures you embroidered for the Empress Dowager were all blindfolded and fast. It must be extremely difficult, and ordinary people can’t learn it, right?”

For a moment even Zhang Yalan listened carefully, waiting for Liu Er to clarify her doubts.On the contrary, Mrs. Zhang once asked Liu'er, she was not so curious, and just smiled and drank tea to listen to them talk.Her sister-in-law came here on purpose today to meet the third sibling.And she just heard that Liu'er's reputation has been spread in the inner house of Beijing Zhong Gaomen, and it is so magical that many people outside want to see her.

"Actually, it's not that difficult. I was sold to an embroidery shop when I was a child, and I worked with the master masters. After a long time, I learned some needlework. Later, when I grew up, I became more like an oil seller. .It’s like eating and drinking. If you do too much anyway, you can do it with your eyes closed. Nowadays, ordinary little girls are pampered. Where there is any need to suffer, it is naturally difficult, and there is nothing magical about it.” Liu Er explained with a smile.

Grandma Zhang nodded, although she knew that there were inaccuracies, but the truth was good.But the little girl Zhang Yalan stepped forward to bless Fushendao, with envy in her eyes, she smiled and said, "The third aunt said it lightly, but it takes more than a month for my female red master to embroider a Diamond Sutra, and stare at it for more than a month. I also I embroidered it for my grandmother. I embroidered it for a long time. If I think about it, there must be some tricks. My master has been doing needlework for decades, and it is said that the masters in the embroidery workshop are incomparable. Third aunt's magic skills, can you give me some pointers? One or two." When the little girl talked about her favorite things, her tone was playful and her expression was lively, she was no longer the well-behaved daughter, but a little more cute.

"Yes, yes, Third Aunt, teach us. Yu'er is also thinking about making a pair of needles and threads as a birthday gift for her grandmother when she celebrates her birthday." Feng Yu also chimed in.

Mrs. Zhang saw it, pointed at the two girls with a smile, and said to Liu'er, "You, seeing that you have two more apprentices, hurry up tomorrow and ask your sister-in-law to send you Shuxiu, now at least give you some pointers, or turn around If we make trouble, we will not live."

Liu'er couldn't shirk anymore, thought for a while, and said, "The most important thing is to practice more and do more, but if you talk about skills, it's not without skills, but let me say it now, I don't know where to start, that's all. , let me embroider two characters, how about you look at it later?"

Everyone couldn't be happier, they were very happy for a while, especially Mrs. Zhang, because Liu'er was pregnant all the time, so it's not good to bother her, even if her daughter passed, she didn't give less advice.Now that Liu Er took the initiative to mention it, she was naturally happy, but she was still a little hesitant, "Will it be too much trouble..."

Liu'er waved her hand, "It's okay, it's just like this, what can ordinary people do if they go to the fields with their stomachs upright. Now I can only move my fingers, how can I be so delicate. I can't eat anymore, I can't work my arms and mouth."

The atmosphere was very harmonious for a while, Zhang's girl brought a needlework basket, Liu'er picked out a medium-sized hand stretcher and a plain ruler, after thinking about it, she took out her own handkerchief, and the safflower around her knew Take it, and lightly blindfolded Liu Er, everything was ready, everyone stared at it with wide eyes, afraid of missing the details, this is a skill that only the empress dowager can see, not the ordinary embroiderer's female red kung fu.

Liu'er also deliberately slowed down the movement of her hand, twisted the embroidery needle, gently touched the silk thread with her orchid finger, moved her middle finger and ring finger slightly, and the silk thread passed through the real eye with great accuracy.Qianqian's jade fingers flicked, and the jade ring on it became more and more white and tender like a green onion. The thread was sewed on gracefully and deftly. The needles all landed exactly where they were supposed to fall, as if they were staring at each other. Everyone held their breath and stared at each other. The room was full of silence...

When Liu'er left, she embroidered two lines of poems on each of the two little girls' handkerchiefs, and the two of them held them.Even to thank Liu'er with a gift, he did it extraordinarily standard.Even Grandma Zhang looked at Liu'er with a little more respect.

It was the first time that Liu'er felt so satisfied, even when she was doing it in front of the Queen Mother in the palace, she didn't have such a sense of accomplishment.There is a faint understanding in her heart that she can also gain respect by her own ability, not only because she is the third grandma of the general's mansion.

As a result, as soon as I returned to Tingtao Garden, my good mood was ruined.As soon as he entered the yard, he felt that the atmosphere was not right. When he came to the corridor of the main room, he saw the girl Dongxue kneeling at the door, her face turned pale. She had obviously been kneeling for some time, so she couldn't help but be taken aback, and said, "What do you mean?" of?"

Dongxue didn't say a word, she only shook her shoulders, her face turned paler, but she bit her lip and said nothing, with a stubborn look on her face.Among the many girls, she was originally the one who didn't like to laugh, but she behaved better than other girls.

Dong'er stepped forward to open the curtain, and Hong Hua even persuaded, "Grandma, let's go in and have a rest first. I've been sitting here for half a day, so I'll find out if I ask Nanny Li."

Although Liu'er was a little suspicious, she didn't say anything and stepped in.On the contrary, it was Honghua who raised her brows when she saw Liuer go in, looked down at Dongxue, and reprimanded in a low voice, "Look at Su Ri, you are also a man of the rules, if you really want to die, no one will stop you, you will be blind for nothing." Grandma treats you so well, you will regret it sometime!" After finishing speaking, she ignored her and went in.

Dong Xue still knelt with a pale expression, but it was too late to say anything now.

As soon as Liu Er entered the inner room, he saw Mr. Feng leaning on the couch by the window reading a book, heard footsteps, looked up and saw Liu Er, dropped the book, and waved, "Why did it take so long, the second sister-in-law is really tired Are you ready?"

"What's the matter with that girl outside?" Liu'er went to sit next to him, feeling much more comfortable on her body, the girls did not look sideways, and went about their own work.

Feng Ziying reached out and rubbed Liu'er's back, and said in a normal voice, "I change clothes and wash up, and I always do it by myself, but now I don't know, when will I ask someone to take care of me."

Liu'er thought of Dongxue's plain shirt and skirt just now, which complemented her skin better than snow, her hair style and jewelry were also exquisite, obviously well-groomed, she knew it.

"Don't like it? Then how do you deal with it?" Liu Er said with a smile, her back feeling warm and comfortable.

"Hmph, don't come here to test me. I won't be fooled by you. A single word doesn't fit your mind. Then you will get angry with me again. Only by killing such a slave who betrays the master can he be used as an example." Mr. Feng's tone was relaxed, It seems that the couple are doing homework on weekdays.

"Forget it, accumulate virtue for our son, and return it to the person who sold her." Liu'er suddenly felt a little depressed, "You said, shouldn't your slaves do such things? The people I brought, actually... ...Could it be that I really can't see people well?"

"Don't do your business, my slave has been frightened by me a long time ago, so I dare not let it go. If it wasn't for yours, I would have kicked it away, and she was an eyesore in front of me? I didn't see that the sparrows in the yard were all Honestly, I don’t dare to chatter. In fact, I really don’t do your business, the main reason is that you didn’t choose a good name, and you will call it the bird’s name tomorrow, and hide in your trousers. Who would dare to show your eyes in broad daylight!”

Liu'er who was talking burst out laughing, stretched out her hand and pinched him, her mood recovered a lot, and she sighed, "I don't know what kind of incense I burned in my previous life. When I meet someone like you, I will treat you better in the future. I won't pinch you anymore, and I won't scratch you." He touched Feng Sanye's thigh, "Does it still hurt?"

Mr. Feng suppressed a smile, "It doesn't hurt, my daughter-in-law is happy to pinch you, I am yours, this little meat is nothing, look at it, it's okay at night, let's continue to pinch and play, they are all birds, To vent your anger on you."

Liu'er nodded, "Sure enough, the old saying is true, if you don't get a house for three days, you will have a filial son under the stick."

Both of them couldn't help laughing together, what kind of conspiracy and scheming, they are just a pair of worldly children.

There was no need for Liu'er to deal with it, Dongxue disappeared the next day, and the other girls were silent as well.After breakfast, Liu'er saw that Mr. Feng had left, and turned to Nanny Li, "What's the matter, everyone looks like a mouse."

Nanny Li suppressed a smile, "Grandma is so lucky. The girls heard Bai He tell a story last night. They probably got scared because of something bad. Dongxue was also sent away. Don't worry about grandma. Alas, the old woman has lived a long time, and she has never seen such a loving man, our third master is the first one, isn't grandma from the previous life?"

In the previous life, it was all very far away. Liu'er was in a trance for a moment, then recovered, and said, "It seems that I don't need to say anything, right?"

Nanny Li smiled and nodded, thinking, what grandma said is not as scary as what the third master said.As for the difficulties Dong Xue mentioned, there is no need to let grandma know, it is hard to say what to ask the third master and third grandma, so she has to come up with such a despicable method.

In a blink of an eye, the fourth master was about to get married, and in November, the Li family from Jiangnan came.
