Chapter 517: Father-in-law Wei with a temper (2)
Chapter 517
Xiaowen explained a few more words to Qinghe, and then turned around and entered the inner room.
"Master, Father-in-law Su has already brought someone over, and the slave maid asked Qinghe to invite Father-in-law Su to the wing. As soon as he entered the door and looked at Erfu's inquiring eyes, Xiaowen hurriedly lowered his head and said.
"You arranged it very well. Erfu raised her arm and asked Yaoqin to buckle the slippery, golden copper round buttons for herself, and said without looking back.
It's quite easy to say that this flag is easy to wear.
It was just a few words before Yaoqin had already arranged the hem of her robe for Erfu and helped her out from behind the screen.
"Please come over and talk to Grandpa Su, Grandpa Wei!" Erfu, who was neatly dressed, did not want to go to the wing room to invite someone in person, and sat directly on the Taishi chair in the hall, and commanded loudly.
Xiaowen didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly answered and ran along the corridor to the wing.
On the other side, Su Peisheng, the father-in-law Su in the wing, had also told the master-in-law and the fourth master about the arrangement of the master, so as not to directly collide with the side Fujin of the West Courtyard, and when the fourth master remembered that this Wei father-in-law was kind to him in the past, he would definitely not blame, but he, the little minion who was responsible for doing things, would be unlucky.
Thousands of miles of officials are only for money, he Su Peisheng gave up his children and grandchildren, just to live better, he doesn't want to offend the master and son if he is not careful, and when the time comes, he will be bullied by those villains who are red and white.
"Su Peisheng, your master's arrangement is for my good, I know, but I really don't have this blessing in my life, if my hand is not injured, I won't wait to get out of the palace, I will find it, but now I ......" In the end, Grandpa Wei sighed almost inaudibly, avoided Su Peisheng's eyes, and stayed on his wrist that was still wrapped in thick gauze.
That man is so ruthless! ruining his errand is not counting, but also cutting off his way of life!
Father-in-law Wei, who has been serving on the stove for most of his life, is afraid that he won't cut his fingers even if he cuts vegetables with his eyes closed, where will he cut his hand tendons because a little eunuch behind him accidentally bumped into him!
The villain in Su Peisheng's heart was already frantically pulling his hair and going crazy, but he didn't know anything on his face, and still coaxed Gonggong Wei to speak with a smile, for fear that this person would leave as soon as he flicked his sleeves, and directly threw the face of the master of the side Fujin in the West Courtyard to the ground, and fell to the ground, "Brother takes the liberty to call you big brother."
Your luck is good, you meet our master, who is cold-hearted and warm-hearted, and our master's hand is a suitable place to place you, otherwise my brother will definitely not pull you back from the street like this.
Others may not understand your temperament, when you dealt with your brother and eldest brother a lot, where would you not know your temper, do you say this is the reason!"
When Gonggong Wei heard this, he smiled self-deprecatingly, raised his hand that was swollen like a pig's trotters, and sighed and said: "Hey, Su Peisheng, I'm a wasted person, what kind of errand can I do, and now the only thing I can do is to squat at the root of the city wall with a broken bowl, and beg those old men in the past to enjoy food." ”
"Brother, if you want to say that, then you can go, the door is there, and our family won't stop you, but our family wants to say the last word to you, you used to be in charge of the dining room of your brother, there is a lot of oil and water here, so how to get out of the palace The luggage is not as good as those little eunuchs who do rough work, what is wrong here, that is, if you don't say it, our family can also come up with a point or two, not to mention that you are a person who has been playing with kitchen knives for half your life, how can you negligently cut your hand, and also cut the tendon on your wrist, so that you can no longer hold the spoon, this family will not say.
Let me ask you, are you willing to run to the bottom of the city wall like a lost dog to be an old beggar?
If you say that you are willing, then our family will send you out of the house, and in the future, we will explain that the people in the house will often take care of you, and there will be no food on the side, steamed buns, cakes, etc., our family can still afford it!" After speaking, Su Peisheng also had a "too lazy to take care of Father-in-law Wei" arrogant virtue, picked up the hot tea sent by Qinghe, and walked for a walk.
Of course, this is definitely not Su Peisheng who wants to fall into the well, he really has no way, after all, the good words are nine thousand six, this Wei Gonggong is not oil and salt, he can only poke at the heart of Wei Gonggong with a black face like this, I hope that Wei Gonggong will not be so unmotivated and boring.
Don't really say it, this Wei Gonggong is a stubborn donkey, he doesn't leave, he goes backwards, he just eats this set, he is so angry that his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys hurt, he can't wait to slap Su Peisheng to the wall and can't pick it off, he really doesn't plan to leave, he really wants to see what kind of person the Fujin on the side of the West Courtyard who made Su Peisheng pay for his care, if he can really arrange an errand for him, he doesn't want to squat at the base of the city wall to ask for food.
But these prerequisites are that this person can't just take pity on him, take care of him, and want to reward him with a bite to eat, so he can just give him an errand, although he is useless now, but he still has to be cheeky, otherwise he can find any prince on the head, sell the gossip of the prince who has come out to open the mansion, and can't mix a yard in Beijing to make a living!
For Gonggong Wei's thoughts, if Erfu knew about it, Erfu would definitely spit disdainfully, and then pointed to the tip of his nose and said: "This is not a dead end, otherwise what is too good-looking, what is unwilling to lose that arrogant bone, it is all nonsense." ”
If you ask Erfu if there is anyone in this world who would rather starve to death or freeze to death, and would never do those errands that are servile and groveling to please people, Erfu believes that someone can do it, but such a person is definitely not a eunuch who has served in the palace for most of his life.
After all, if they had that arrogance at the beginning, it would be impossible for them to even give up their qualifications to be men and enter the palace, although some of them did not enter the palace voluntarily, some were forced to make a living, and some were for the sake of a better life for their brothers and sisters in the family...... But Erf didn't think that a long period of groveling would get them back on their feet.
Here, Su Peisheng finally made Gonggong Wei temporarily dispel the idea of leaving.
Over there, Xiaowen has already come over to ask for someone.
Gonggong Wei looked at Xiaowen, who was neither humble nor arrogant, and had a moderate demeanor, and couldn't help but feel a little curious about this side Fujin of the West Courtyard, of course, it was just curiosity, so he wouldn't stay by this side Fujin so simply!
"Slaves Su Peisheng and Wei Dalu have seen Guerjia side Fujin, side Fujin auspicious!" The two bowed slightly and followed behind Xiao Wen, and as soon as they entered the hall, they simply swept their sleeves neatly, knelt on the ground, and said in unison.
Erfu focused on the Gonggong Wei mentioned by the fourth master, raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his hand and said, "Get up and talk!", and at the same time pointed to the official hat chair placed under the head, motioned for both of them to sit down, and sent other palace maids except Yaoqin and Guzheng, lest this Gonggong Wei say any arrogant remarks when he can't clean up.
This is also the reason why she did not see Grandpa Wei in the main hall in the front yard.
The west courtyard where Erfu is located is a standard three-hall courtyard.
One enters the door and bypasses the shadow wall wall is one entry, the courtyard of one entry is not big, but it is arranged to be extraordinarily exquisite, one of them is a rockery piled up with Taihu Lake stone, such as the spirit monkey offering longevity in general, there are more living water springs under the rockery, in the small pool with white marble carved with the pattern of Wufu Linmen, there are not only a few bowls of pink and lovely water lilies, but also a few bright and fat koi fish jumping in it, clear and beautiful, and not losing solemnity, people feel that the person who lives here is an elegant person with a temperament like an orchid at first sight.
Complementing the courtyard, it is naturally a hall with five rooms wide and a hugging building at the back.
The hollow carved doors and windows, the first-class water ground inlaid with the silver filigree pattern of the glaze, if you walk in, you can see the whole set of mahogany furniture through the window, full of heaviness, but not dull.
In addition to passing through the hall, next to the courtyard wall is the position of three inverted seats, where live are the maids and mothers-in-law who do rough work in the courtyard, even so, Erfu did not treat them harshly, the small skylight that was originally open enough for a person to be high has been expanded several times, so that their living conditions have been greatly improved, the ventilation system is better than the original, more than ten times, even in the sultry summer, sitting in the inverted room, will no longer be hot and sweaty.
For the sake of the coordination of the whole courtyard, Erfu even changed the windows of the inverted seat room to carved windows, and the original position of window paper and window screens was also replaced with glass, which was very precious at that time.
To say that in the west courtyard of the three entrances, the most suitable place to meet guests is the first entrance through the hall, but in order to prevent the sudden fall of Father-in-law Wei from having a psychological gap, Erfu arranged the place of meeting in her residence, and the second into the upper hall.
This was supposed to be Erf's private territory, a place that unfamiliar relatives could not enter, and the style was naturally warm and sweet, as can be seen from the pale pink light gauze drapery full of princess style.
"The slave still has to reply to the master, so he will retire first!" Su Peisheng accompanied Gonggong Wei and Erfu to talk about the old past for a while, and then he couldn't sit still, and hurriedly got up and said goodbye.
"Okay, you go get busy first. Erfu smiled and nodded, signaling Guzheng to send Su Peisheng out, in Erfu's opinion, with Su Peisheng here, this Wei Gonggong is afraid that it will be more difficult to speak, I didn't see that this Wei Gonggong looked at Su Peisheng's eyes and was about to eat people, and I don't know how Su Peisheng offended this.
It's also a shame that Su Peisheng doesn't know Erfu's mental activities, otherwise he will definitely cry.
Erfu watched the guzheng lead Su Peisheng out of the doorway, then straightened his robe slightly, smiled at Gonggong Wei, opened the conversation, and said softly: "Gonggong Wei, we don't talk darkly, the first time Fujin meets you on this side, you don't have to worry about me taking care of you, pity you, and give you a bowl of rice to eat."
There is a good restaurant under the side of Fujin, although there are so many chefs to support, but after the opening of a new branch, this manpower is inevitably a little insufficient, and those who are invited from outside, this side of Fujin is really a little unkind, just need a master who can train chefs and celebrity chefs for me, and you have served in the palace dining room for many years, even the fourth master is full of praise, this craft must be good, although your hand is injured now, but the disciple brother, it is still okay, I don't know what you think?"
According to Erfu's observation, this Wei Gonggong is not quite the same as the feminine temperament of ordinary eunuchs, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a tall nose bridge, and a bit of fierce Zhang Fei in it, thinking that he is a person who acts in a bright and upright manner, although it is strange to describe a eunuch like this, but this is Erfu's first impression, so she did not go around in circles like when she talked to Su Peisheng, and directly said the conditions she gave.
As for whether the other party agrees or not, she said that she can talk slowly, he has entered the mansion left and right, and with such a half-crippled person as him, can he still run out of the mansion? I really don't know if the fourth master knew that he handed over this matter to Erfu to arrange because he trusted Erfu, and this woman he trusted had this mentality, would he be so angry that he wanted to kill!
"The slave is just a waste now, and he really deserves to be so valued by the side Fujin. Although Erfu's advice was tempting, Gonggong Wei still didn't want to have anything to do with these princes and grandsons, you must know that his hand was useless, it was a certain prince who arranged for someone to do it, but because he arranged for a young eunuch who was not up to the rank to send the sobering soup, which made the prince feel neglected.
"Father-in-law Wei doesn't have to be busy refusing, the injury on your hand doesn't seem to be healed when he sees it, and it seems that even the gauze has passed through the blood, it's better to deal with it first!" "Father-in-law Wei's refusal, as early as Erfu's expectation, she didn't think that she could come up with a way, the fourth master couldn't think of it, and she wouldn't tell this Father-in-law Wei, so since the fourth master's suggestion could be rejected by him, she said it as a woman who existed like a silk flower, how could this one agree!
Erfu even suspected that the reason why the fourth master would push this errand on her head was to have a name for Su Peisheng to get people back to the house.
I have to say, to some extent, Erf guessed correctly this time.
After speaking, Erfu didn't wait for Grandpa Wei to answer, so he asked the guzheng who had just come back to ask for Imperial Doctor Hu.
To say that this Imperial Doctor Hu has completely become the exclusive imperial doctor of the Fourth Master's Mansion since she was pregnant, and she has to be in the Fourth Master's Mansion for twenty-five days a month, except for the first day of the new month, Originally, he thought that it would be good to wait for this Guerjia side Fujin to give birth, but he didn't want the fourth master to directly reject his plan to go back to the hospital from the root, and directly asked for someone from the old man Kangxi, and completely became the exclusive imperial doctor of the fourth master's mansion, and it was as if he had become Erfu's personal doctor, even if Erfu coughed, Yaoqin and others would get him over to check the pulse.
No, Gu Zheng took the pair of cards to the Tibetan Medicine Institute in the front yard, and pulled Imperial Doctor Hu back from the front without even stumbling.
"Imperial Doctor Hu doesn't need to be polite, please take a look at the injuries on this person's hands!" Because Gonggong Wei had already left the palace gate, he was naturally not dressed as a eunuch, only wearing a brown muslin robe, so Erfu did not specify his identity, so as not to violate any taboo in Gonggong Wei's heart.
Erf was right about this.
There is no man who doesn't mind that he is not a man, including eunuchs, so they don't want to be looked up and down with that kind of eyes!
