Chapter 277: When Fake Is True, True Is False
The housekeeper has served in the fourth master's mansion for many years, even if she doesn't deal much with Su Peisheng on weekdays, she still has some understanding of the temperament of this big eunuch with a face in front of the fourth master, and she knows that these rootless eunuchs are all dead and asking for money.
Seeing Su Peisheng take out a small purse, how could she really accept it, but if she pushed it around like this, she was worried that Su Peisheng, who was not much bigger than the needle nose, had a lot of heart, so she had to refuse twice, put the purse into the sleeve cage with a smile, and took out a jade jade pendant the size of a baby's hand with a good head from the other sleeve.
"A few days ago, I went to see the big girl in my house outside the front door, and I accidentally saw a little play, I wanted to give her little three children a meeting gift, but I didn't want that kid to be unlucky, I usually don't go out at home, and I followed his father outside that day.
I happened to see Grandpa Su today, so I will play with it for Grandpa Su!" The housekeeper had an expression of 'children are not blessed', smiled and stuffed the jade pendant into Su Peisheng's hand, and said softly.
Su Peisheng has been waiting in front of the fourth master for a long time, and the fourth master is a master with clear rewards and punishments, and he has seen a lot of good things, and when he saw the housekeeper stuffing things into his hands like this, he didn't say anything, smiled politely, and then used the excuse that the fourth master was not close to anyone, and hurriedly went back to the west courtyard to go on an errand, and he didn't even deal with the triangle on the robe on his body.
The housekeeper smiled and sent Su Peisheng out of the sewing room, turned around and pulled Tang Mama's sleeve and entered her room.
"You are also an old man in the house, and you know what kind of person he is. Why do you have to make any tongues with him, not to mention that his son will come over, it will naturally be approved by the master!" the housekeeper slapped the table angrily. Said in a deep voice.
Mama Tang is a palace maid who combs her hair in the palace, and she can follow the fourth master to open the mansion to serve, and that is also because of her relationship with the housekeeper.
At this time, seeing the housekeeper's grandmother scolding with a dark face, not only did she not feel that she had done something wrong, but she stiffened her neck and shouted: "Godmother, he is a poor boy who sold himself to serve in the Internal Affairs Office, and I don't know which grave in the house has green smoke. Actually shouting with us serious wrappers ......"
Before she could finish speaking, the housekeeper had already slapped her in the face, interrupting what she had not yet said.
"You idiot. If you still have this virtue, you don't have to serve in the mansion!" The housekeeper only felt that her three-year-old grandson was smarter than her, the godgirl who had been taught by her for many years, and said with some discouragement.
The housekeeper didn't care when she said this, but Mama Tang panicked. Although her embroidery skills are good. But what kind of place is this capital, it is a place where nobles gather, there are many wealthy families, those embroiderers from the south, better than her craftsmanship, like a carp across the river.
If she really lost her errand of serving in the Fourth Master's Mansion because of this trivial matter, then her life would be completely ruined.
However, Mama Tang has been with the housekeeper since she was a little palace maid, and she may not care about other people on weekdays, but she is angry about the housekeeper's preferences, but she knows it well.
looked at the housekeeper's mother's expression that she didn't bother to say a word again. She knew that this housekeeper couldn't be counted on, and she couldn't help but resent the housekeeper for being too powerful. But before she found a new backer, she didn't dare to show the dissatisfaction in her heart, so she had to admit her mistake by kneeling and begging for mercy in anger.
In the end, they have been together for many years, and the time spent together by the housekeeper and Mama Tang is several times or more than ten times more than the time with the heir she found for her.
"All right, get up too! But you're not a child anymore, you should know who you can't offend!
As the saying goes, the king of Hades is better than a little ghost, even if you look down on Su Peisheng and those eunuchs in your heart, but in the end he has the face of the master, and you don't need your own money to make clothes, why should you offend that person. The housekeeper sighed in her heart, got up and helped Mama Tang to sit down, and her tone was full of helplessness.
Mama Tang pinched her thigh, squeezed out a few crocodile tears, and nodded again and again, but she felt that this housekeeper was too cautious.
Even if Su Peisheng has another face in front of his master, he is not a eunuch who can't be on the stage, and those of them who are serving in the inner courtyard can't ask him to go with him at all.
What kind of person is Mama Steward, who has been immersed in the palace for most of her life, how powerful those eyes are, looking at Mama Tang's respectful and disdainful look in her eyes, what else do you not understand!
As soon as she thought of this, the housekeeper was really in no mood to teach her.
"Okay, you're not too young, and I don't want to nag you like that, go get busy!" The housekeeper waved her hand, picked up the tea bowl that was already cold in her hand, took a sip, and said in a low voice.
Mama Tang saw that the housekeeper's face was as usual, but she didn't stay long when this turmoil was over, she smiled and bowed, turned around and walked out, looking at the little maid who was rushing into the room to serve, she spat with disdain, and secretly scolded that they were all cheap bones.
The smart people who are serving in the house, who are not the ones who see and listen to all directions, although the little maid entered the door without moving, she also heard the movement of Mama Tang, and couldn't help but sneer twice in her heart.
Entering the room, the little maid saw that Mama was holding herbal tea and drinking, and hurriedly picked out the small tea stove that was pressing the fire outside, sitting on a small pestle, with her hands on her cheeks showing an innocent face, while waiting for the water to boil, she said as if unintentionally, "Mama Tang is not very happy to see it!"
"Don't be so clever with Mama!" the housekeeper raised her hand lazily, leaned on the big back pillow behind her, and whispered, "But what did she do when she went out and let you see it?"
In the end, there was a little more helplessness in the tone of the housekeeper. Serving in the same house, they should help each other, but these shallow eyelids like to step on each other, and they don't even want to find someone who can talk with peace of mind.
The small tea stove burns silver frost charcoal, not only does it have no smoke. And the heat was full, and it took a moment to boil the already warm spring water, and the little girl was smoked out of a sweat bead in her head.
"Wanqing, I don't think Sister Tang is too much. I don't understand Mama's hard work at all!" The little maid made a bowl of new tea and sent it again, took out an old vermilion lacquer box in the cabinet, picked up a few small snacks and put them away, and sent them to the housekeeper with a smile.
The housekeeper is not a fool, and she snorted without picking her eyelids. I pinched a piece of mung bean cake and brought it to my mouth, taking small bites.
Wanqing was bored with herself, so she didn't say anything more, and smiled obediently and beat her legs for the housekeeper. The dark iron pestle is sharpened into a needle, as long as the housekeeper has distrust in Mama Tang's heart, sooner or later she can also become a big embroidery girl with the ability to needlework, instead of doing these rough jobs of serving tea and water.
The other end. Mama Tang looked down on the little maid to please the housekeeper. I don't look down on the housekeeper to please Su Peisheng, but I especially enjoy the fawning of those little maids.
Seeing that several embroidery girls in the embroidery room were working, she was a little bored, so she took out a few pieces of nest silk candy from the secret compartment on her embroidery frame, and beckoned a few little maids who helped to divide the line, send the handkerchief, and deliver the water.
The little maids are all children under the age of ten, and it is difficult to go out on errands on weekdays, and there is no reward, and they are all bought by the Ulanala clan when there are disasters in various places. I've never eaten anything like this at home.
Follow the big maid in the house to learn the rules and errands, and a few little maids next to them haven't learned yet. But this talk work, but also learned eight or nine not far from ten, it was as sweet as honey, quickly came to Tang Mama, and said in unison: "Mama is so good!"
"It's just a snack, you can eat more if you like!" Mama Tang listened happily, raised her hand to take the tea bowl given by the little maid, and took out a handful of crystal candy from the dark compartment.
got a new little snack, and the little maids were even more 'Tang Mama, Tang Mama'.
If you want to say that the name of this Tang Mama is really her Tang Mama self-styled, otherwise, with her ability alone, even if she stays up for more than ten or twenty years, she will not be able to be a grandmother in charge, at most she will be an embroidery girl who relies more on craftsmanship to eat.
"Yo, Mama Tang, what are you doing here?" A thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl wearing a cyan maid robe walked into the door, and saw Mama Tang leaning on the embroidery frame in a daze, and asked with a smile.
"Why are you so free?" Mama Tang turned her head, looked at the person who came, showed a smile, and asked softly.
The eldest girl sent the pattern booklet in her hand to Mama Tang, pointed to a few patterns selected on it, and whispered: "You weren't there last afternoon, as soon as we entered the house, the master asked people to send the pattern booklet over and send the tailors on the needlework!"
Mama Tang is working in the palace needlework bureau, and she also walks around the palaces on weekdays, although she is not familiar with Linglong, but she has heard of her from others, and now I heard that she won the favor of the fourth master as soon as she entered the house, she was really not surprised at all, and smiled and promised: "You are Gege, that is a blessed one!"
"What can I say! Our Gege is not very comfortable this morning, not only the side Fujin who is now taking care of the housework, but even the Fujin who has been sick has gone, and the master has changed the temperament of the black-faced god in the past, so it is a pity for our Gege!" The big girl was happy to share gossip with others, and for a while she boasted about the decency of her family Gege.
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.
The eldest girl Sui'er said happily, and Mama Tang's mind became lively.
"You are also a good fate, follow the master with a good face to serve, and you can also mix with a good mother-in-law in the future!" Mama Tang was thinking about other things in her heart, but her face was also unmoving, and she said with a smile.
"It's a great blessing to be able to serve Gege!" Sui'er smiled politely, and took out a purse containing two silver beads, hoping that Mama Tang could supervise the embroidery girl so that her Gege could put on new clothes as soon as possible.
The two chatted for a while, and Sui'er reluctantly left the sewing room, and walked back to Bichiyuan quickly, looking at Wu Gege, who was sitting embroidering under the porch, and his steps sped up a little.
"Gege, your body is not comfortable, why are you sitting outside blowing the wind!" Sui'er sent a little maid in to get the cloak and came out, put her hand on Wu Bilian's thin shoulder, and said with a little anxiety in her tone.
Wu Bilian smiled, raised the embroidery brace on her hand, pointed to Hai Dongqing, who had half a wing embroidered on it, and said softly: "How can I be so squeamish, just drink the decoction prescribed by the doctor, I don't want to take advantage of the fact that it is still early, embroider a few stitches outside, and make a gadget for him as soon as possible!"
"Gege is so careful!" Sui'er said.
"Okay, don't praise people sweetly, although I'm just Gege next to my master, I just want to do my best for my master!
It's how do you go to the sewing room, and when you come back, it's a secret, but what's the good thing?" Wu Bilian didn't like the flattering appearance of the people around her, raised her hand to interrupt Sui'er's words, and asked in a low voice.
Sui'er glanced left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention, so she opened her mouth mysteriously, "I just talked to Tang Xiuniang on the needlework, and I heard that the master punished Father-in-law Su, and even the robe on his body was imprinted with a few footprints!"
"Do you know what it is for?" Wu Bilian stopped with interest and asked softly.
"Listening to Tang Xiuniang's meaning, it should be that the master and the one over there had a few disputes, and they angered Father-in-law Su!" Sui'er didn't know that what Tang Mama said was all speculation, and when Su Peisheng went to needlework to make new clothes, he complained and said it in disbelief, and he was afraid that Wu Bilian would not understand and raised his chin to the west, which was called a snort.
Wu Bilian saw Sui'er's determined face, and a flash of light flashed in her mind.
"Don't talk nonsense, she is a side Fujin, I have to respect her!" Wu Bilian was happy in her heart, but her face was a little more dignified, and she said in a low voice.
Sui'er shrugged her shoulders disapprovingly, turned her head and moved on to something else.
It's just that the topic is mostly a short trivial matter in the parents, Wu Bilian prides herself on being high, and she doesn't bother to pay attention to it, so she bows her head and goes to do needlework seriously.
Sui'er didn't mean anything to say herself, so she didn't say more.
After more than half an hour, the night was getting dark, Wu Bilian received the embroidery work that had not been embroidered, got up and returned to the inner room, only then did she raise her eyes full of guilt and look at Sui'er who was making the bed, and said in a low voice: "You said that Fang Fujin and the fourth master had a dispute, presumably because I took the pill by mistake, should I go to the West Courtyard to explain to Fang Fujin!"
"Gege, it's not the heart of a slave and a villain, it's just that you want to quarrel with the master, if you go, I'm afraid that Fang Fujin won't think you're good, but think that you are going to see the excitement, and when the time comes, you will be really wronged!" Sui'er only thought that Wu Bilian had just entered the mansion, and she didn't have any idea for a while, and said unceremoniously.
"Then it's according to what you said, it's just that I'm not at ease after all, when the master comes, you remember to remind me to explain this matter to the master, so as not to misunderstand the side Fujin!" Wu Bilian sighed lightly and said with a wry smile. (To be continued......)
