Chapter 983
Chapter 983
Husband and wife get along, a little fight is fun, and jealousy is a manifestation of intimacy, but sometimes a sentence or a look may also derive other barriers, especially when it involves the elders and relatives of a certain party, such as at this time, how shrewd the fourth master is, he doesn't wait for Erfu to finish speaking, he already understands the hidden meaning of Erfu's words, although he is also unhappy with Concubine De's arrangement, but in his bones he is more filial than anyone else He is even more unhappy with Erfu's disrespect for Concubine De Niangniang.
So, he gave a reaction that was diametrically opposed to his heart.
"Since it was rewarded by the mother, then stay by your side and be a miscellaneous water deliverer, I see that your face is not very good, rest early." After speaking, the fourth master shook his fan and walked outside the Changchun Immortal Pavilion as if he was nothing.
Erfu, who was sitting opposite the fourth master, was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then walked to the upper room with an unhappy face, in fact, according to her psychological expectations, after she said these words, even if the fourth master was in the way of Concubine De's face, it was not good to dispose of the two sisters sent in by the Wuya clan in this way, but she did not give the sisters a good face, she really didn't expect the fourth master to react like this, just because she didn't expect it, so she saw the fourth master's move to turn around and leave after leaving a sentence, she was naturally unhappy.
If it were for other native-born Qing Dynasty women to see this scene, they would have to catch up with them with grievances, and be a little low to coax the fourth master to be happy, and be as enthusiastic as those streets and alleys in the TV series that are particularly lively every night, waving a small handkerchief to summon guests, like a flower and a jade, to pull the fourth master back to his side, and finally when he can't bear it, he will do something out of the ordinary.
However, Erfu is not a person of this era in the end, she has been quite upright since she was a child, and she can still calmly watch the fourth master leave, instead of pulling the fourth master to make noise in front of the palace maids in the courtyard, then she is already calm and self-controlled.
I saw her turn around and go back to the upper room to sit down, sulking indignantly, looking at what is awkward, what is bored, drinking tea feels wrong, but even so, she did not get angry at Yutong and Yuhua, first, because she has to take care of Concubine De's face, beat the dog to see the owner, she can't always bring people back from Concubine De's side with her front foot, and the back foot wants to toss Yutong sisters to fall into Concubine De's face, which may not have a good effect, not to say, offending Concubine De Niangniang is inevitable, and secondly, compared to Concubine De's two love rivals who stuffed into her room for no reason, she was even more annoyed by the cold and violent reaction of the fourth master's inaction, if she was really so angry with the Yutong sisters, it was not that the Yutong sisters and the fourth master were involved for no reason.
Therefore, she could only look at the Yutong sisters, silently spit out a few mouthfuls of turbidity, forcibly pulled the excuse that no one believed in it, put on a considerate posture of being considerate of the people below, and commanded softly: "You have just changed places on an errand, it is inevitable that you will be a little uncomfortable, go down and rest early, take a good two days, and then follow Shilan and them to the room to serve." After saying that, she didn't give the Yutong sisters a chance to reply, and waved her hand to urge them to go down.
The Yutong sisters are both smart people, and they also see that Erfu is very unhappy now, and they are afraid of continuing to stay in Erfu's side, and they have not had time to attract the attention of the fourth master, so they were disposed of by Erfu's anger, so they obediently withdrew from the upper room.
Of course, they didn't go on vacation as Erf had ordered.
The two sisters returned to their resting room, rummaged through the baggage they brought, and found a piece of plain silk three feet square, Yutong, who was more good at calligraphy and painting, stayed in the room, according to the size of the silk, racked her brains to design patterns, and Yuhua, who was better at human relations, found the little palace maid who lived in the next room and exchanged some broken silver for some silk threads, and found the housekeeper of the Old Summer Palace, and asked for some precious gold and silver embroidery threads, and then took the meal from the kitchen back to the room where Yutong lived.
"Sister, look at what color this silk thread is missing!" Yu Yu returned to the room, holding all kinds of embroidery threads in her hand to Yu Tong, who was lying by the window to draw patterns, and asked with a smile, and at the same time did not forget to share the news she had just found from other people with Yu Tong, who was painting in the room, "Listening to the rough maid who was pruning flowers and branches on the side of the stone road outside, the fourth master went straight to the front when he left the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, and met the well-dressed little Ulana Lagge on the road and did not give a good face, I saw that our work was not good. ”
"From now on, you have forgotten all the skills you learned from your grandmother at home.
We are the big palace maids who are waiting close to the main courtyard Fujin, and we are better than anything else, don't stick your head around to find out the news, and cause trouble in plain water, it should be the news that our sisters know, even if we don't ask, it will always reach our ears, if those two don't want us to know the news, you do this, just to make them more careful and wary of our sisters.
And from today onwards, you also have to change the habit of spending money, don't play the god of wealth everywhere, although the family trustee sent in a lot of money, but if we don't make progress for a long time, do you think they will be so generous to give us silver, so now the silver in our hands is likely to be our future hope. Yutong, who was lowering his head and drawing tricks seriously, saw that Yuhua didn't even recognize all the people in the garden, so he didn't look for the little palace maid to set words, and stopped his pen a little unhappily, with a straight face, and reminded him very seriously.
Yutong is steady, Yuhua is proud, she really doesn't think that Erfu is such a scheming woman as worthy of their sisters' guard, she doesn't think Erfu is a strong competitor, or she doesn't put Erfu in her eyes at all, if it weren't for Yutong's sister, she probably couldn't wait to find the fourth master to recommend herself to the pillow seat, so at this time Yutong didn't agree with her somewhat reckless approach, and she defended with an unconvinced face: "Sister, I don't think this matter is as serious as you think."
How can there be a cat in the world who does not steal fish, although the grace of this Chang Fujin has been extremely prosperous over the years, and the new people in the house have not been able to get benefits from her, but a generation of newcomers to replace the old, this is a more ancient and unchanging law, our sisters join forces, not to mention that they can completely overwhelm the limelight of this Chang Fujin, and it is not easy to gain a firm foothold in the house. After saying that, she focused her attention on her pair of jade hands that were like condensed jade carvings, God knows how much hard work she had put in to raise these hands as perfect as works of art, but poor her only did the rough work of serving tea and water on the first day she entered the Old Summer Palace......
When Yutong heard this, he was really a little flustered.
It is true that she and Yu Hua are siblings, but they have learned from different masters since they were children, so they have their own strengths and weaknesses, one is because the two of them have different personalities, and the family has specially selected a gentleman who is more in line with their temperament to teach them their skills, and the other is that the family hopes that they can complement each other, and the fight is that no matter what kind of character the fourth master likes, there is always an idea that can cater to the likes and dislikes of the fourth master.
But it is precisely because of this that Yutong and Yuhua duo, in the face of Erfu, soon disagreed, Yutong felt that Erfu could climb from the side of Fujin to the position of Changfujin, and would never be a simple woman, Yuhua according to the various information collected by the family over the years, felt that Erfu was a can't help Adou, the reason why he was able to defeat the Wulanala clan and favor the fourth master's mansion was completely due to luck, so there was nothing to worry about, and she also firmly believed that men like the new and hated the old, and there was no such thing as a deep-rooted love at all, especially after seeing the scene when the fourth master turned his face and threw his sleeves and left, she didn't take Erfu to heart even more。
Yutong is not afraid of the side, she is really afraid that Yutong is too blind and arrogant to destroy her long-made idea, and finally cause her to be unlucky, so after thinking about it for a while, she took out the jade pendant given to her by Ama from the family from her inner pocket very decisively, and said: "Yuhua, I don't care how incompetent you think this Chang Fujin is, and how sure you are that you can successfully gain a foothold in front of the fourth master, but when we come out of the house, how Ama commanded, you will not completely forget it."
This time I entered the Fourth Master's Mansion to serve, and everything was based on my decision.
I have no other requirements for you, I just ask you to keep your duty, when I don't let you get close to the fourth master, you will endure it for me, and obediently be a palace maid who obeys orders, if it is because you delay my exquisite arrangements, then you don't blame me for getting a letter from the family and finding other sisters to take over your errand. As he spoke, Yutong threw the ordinary jade pendant in front of Yutong, turned around and returned to the window to continue drawing.
"Sister, our sisters share honor and disgrace, why do you say such heartless words!" Yu Tong is the best at observing words and feelings, how can she not see that Yu Tong really has the idea of finding other sisters to replace her errand, so she hurriedly restrained her arrogant style, smiled and came to Yu Tong's side, and flattered her in a low way.
"It's best if you remember what you said.
I also remind you one last sentence, never underestimate anyone, if she is really lucky, how can she stay by the side of the fourth master for more than ten years, and she is still beautiful, there is no such lucky person in this world. Although Yutong has a calm heart, a cautious personality, and a steady manner, she can't stand Yutong's delicate and charming sister deliberately selling this set, she restrained the cold color in her eyes, and sighed helplessly.
People with a calm heart can sit firmly on the throne of the main room, but the beauty of the heart is often cherished by men in the palm of their hands, and a lot of men take the initiative to send them to the door for the sword, Yu Yu is this kind of coquettish and ambitious concubine room, when the Wuya clan people selected the right person to send to Concubine De Niangniang, Yutong was the first to settle down, because Yutong is such a cautious woman, more can help the family in exchange for more benefits in front of the fourth master, and when choosing another person to cooperate with Yutong, the elders of the Wuya clan are worried about their white hair。
There are two reasons, one is that I am worried that the two beauties sent in will calculate each other, and finally cheapen the others, and the other is that there are a lot of girls who take the road of Yuhua, and each has its own merits, it is really not easy to choose, and in the end, it is also for the sake of Yuhua and Yutong to be siblings, so Yuhua was selected as a particularly charming and complicated candidate.
However, after the selection of Yutong was decided, Yutong and Yuhua's Ama were worried.
Although he paid little attention to the charming little daughters at home, he also learned about the temperament of the two daughters from the mouth of his old wife, he was pleased that his daughter was so capable, but he was also worried that his daughter was too smart, smart to the point of ruthlessness, and this daughter specifically referred to Yuhua, and Yutong was not wary enough of this sibling sister, which was also a point that made Wuya's father particularly worried, so before he sent his two daughters out into the palace, he specially found the two daughters into the study to talk, and handed a jade pendant to Yutong's hand as if it was Shang Fang's sword。
Facts have proved that Wu Ya's father's worries are not unreasonable.
Yutong and Yuhua have just come to the Old Summer Palace, and they haven't even touched the edge of the fourth master, so they have already had a dispute, and Yutong is even more hindered by the threat of Yutong, and his dissatisfaction with Yutong is hidden deep in his heart, and he is only looking forward to flying on the branch and becoming a phoenix, and then turning around to find the Yutong who is not too pleasing to settle accounts.
At this time, she hugged Yutong's arm with a smile on her face, and responded softly: "I know, I will listen to my sister's orders in the future, and I won't cause trouble for my sister anymore."
In fact, I also understand my sister's worries, I am just angry that she really treats us as slaves, you look at where we live, and then look at the clothes on our bodies, she also asked us to serve tea and water and do the same work as other slaves and maids, she really doesn't understand Concubine De's hints, or does she deliberately want to practice us, want to torture us like this, let us die!"
"She's so much smarter than we think.
You say that she pretends not to understand, or deliberately tries to trouble us, but I think it's both.
She pretended not to understand Concubine De's hints, not to mention taking the initiative to push us to the fourth master, let alone taking the initiative to welcome us into the door, but Concubine De couldn't trouble her for this matter, on the other hand, she deliberately treated us as ordinary palace maids, and there was no need to say more, those palace maids who relied on her to live would take the initiative to stand up and embarrass us.
And if we don't be careful, I'm afraid that if we don't wait for our youth, the calculations of those palace maids and servants you can't look down on will cost us our lives, and we can't ask Concubine De for help when we encounter anything, so I ask you to be extra careful, don't despise this concubine. When Yutong heard this, she was not in the mood to continue painting, so she turned her head and put away most of the patterns in the painting, pulled Yuhua, who was still holding her arm, and walked to the inner room, sharing some of the insights she had tasted in the past half a day with Yuhua, so as not to recklessly fall into Erf's calculations.
