19. Benefits of acute sub-species
Mrs. Wang, Xue Pan has been in the capital for a long time, and Mrs. Wang has also had a lot of dealings, but how is this person, but Xue Pan can't say it for a while, when he was in Yangzhou in the past, Jia Min also occasionally mentioned it, saying that he didn't get along well with Mrs. Wang in the past, but Xue Pan thought about the matter between the elders, even if Mrs. Wang was stingy, she would not attack the juniors, and the situation that Mama Wang said was not much different from what Xue Pan thought. However, Baoyu likes to spend all day in the inner curtain, and every mother will not blame her son, but will blame those who make her son like this.
"I'm afraid it's a bit too much," Xue Pan said with a smile, "Baoyu is not like this when Sister Lin comes, it was this tone before, I think my aunt understands things very well, it shouldn't be, it's probably because Miss Lin doesn't talk to the elders very much, right?" But it's strange to say, didn't Sister Lin also behave very well in front of his wife? Mama, did you say that? ”
Xue Pan slowly returned to the room, and Mama Wang smiled, "So Mrs. likes her too, uncle, let's settle it early." ”
When Xue Pan arrived at home, he saw a few little girls surrounding a girl with her head down, doing something under the light, and no one noticed Xue Pan walking in, just looking at something with her head down, Xue Pan tiptoed closer to take a look, only to see a woman wearing red roses embroidering something with her head down, "Look, swing here, and then change a pink thread, so interspersed, isn't it good?" ”
"Sure enough, it's good," He'er clapped her hands and laughed, "In the end, it's Sister Qingwen, just like this, this mandarin duck will come alive and seem to be really moving, I'm really stupid, I can't embroider well, my sister is so good with a few stitches, it's much better." ”
"You girl," hearing such praise, Qingwen had a faint look of pride on her face, and scolded with a smile, "Su Ri has followed me so much every day, and I don't hide my selfishness, you don't know how to learn it, but you know that no one can learn this needlework, but you are so lazy, you give me everything to do, and now I am in this house, I don't have to do anything else every day, but I work for you!" ”
He'er heard Qingwen scolding like this, but she didn't get angry, she still smiled and said, "There is a sister in one day, I will be used for a day, besides, this needlework also requires some talent, in addition to my sister, who else in our family can do it well?" Good sister, I naturally won't let my sister do it in vain, I'll serve my sister to clean up tomorrow, and keep the bun on your head looking better than this one! ”
Qingwen stretched out her finger and poked He'er's forehead, "The little girl will be good!" What you said, I can't say I want to help you," I saw her lower her head, her hands flying, and suddenly a red white-necked and black-eyed colorful mandarin duck appeared vividly on the lake-green Ning silk, after Qingwen embroidered, she raised her head proudly, but suddenly saw Xue Pan, and her expression couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and the girls raised their heads and saw Xue Pan didn't know that she had been looking at it for a while.
He'er hurriedly got up, "Why did Uncle come back?" ”
"This is my room, why can't I come back?" Xue Pan smiled slightly, he nodded towards Qingwen, "You're good, Su Ri doesn't do needlework for me, but you are very hardworking for these little girls." ”
The little girls poured water and poured water, packed up things, Qingwen raised her eyebrows slightly, "I can do it for whoever I like, and there is no shortage of people to do uncle's things, why do you want me to do it?" Naturally, I'm happy to be free. ”
Xue Pan was not angry, turned around and got on the kang, sat down cross-legged, and placed the hem of the robe neatly, "It's good if you like it yourself." Hong'er poured tea up, and Xue Pan waved his hand, "I won't drink tea at night." ”
"It's jujube chrysanthemum tea," Hong'er said with a smile, "It's nothing else, I know that the uncle is afraid that he won't be able to sleep." ”
Xue Pan took a sip and said to Qingwen, "It's been a few days at home, and I feel relieved to see that you get along well with these people." ”
Qingwen didn't know why, she suddenly became angry, she was so unbearable, Xue Pan was so unwilling to tell herself to be an errand? Hearing this, Qingwen sneered, "Uncle, what's not to worry about, I eat, sleep, and eat every day, but it's more comfortable than in the old lady's room." ”
Xue Pan knew that this was just what Qingwen said angrily, even if it was these first-class girls, there were not a few jobs to do every day, although Xue Pan was not at home every day, but things were indispensable, Qingwen was dancing in front of herself, but in front of Aunt Xue, she might not dare to bare her teeth, "That's good," Xue Pan nodded, "You are doing well, I will be relieved when I go out." ”
Qingwen hurriedly asked, "Where is Uncle going again?" ”
"It's an official matter to go to Shuzhong," Xue Pan took a sip of tea, "It's going to take a few months." ”
Qingwen was not happy when she heard this, "Uncle people, they all stay at home every day, such as the second master and the third master, they are all like this, but hello Uncle Xue, it's okay to read in the palace every day, no one dares to say anything, but now I have to go far away, the wife and girls in this family are all here, you are good, and you still run so far away." ”
Xue Pan sighed slightly, "What you said is not true, I don't want to go far away, it's just that this person is in the officialdom, and he can't help himself." ”
Qingwen was a little angry when she saw Xue Pan so helpless, but at this time it disappeared, "If the uncle goes out, everything must be prepared properly," Qingwen hurriedly called He'er and the others to come over, "Hurry up and prepare clothes for the uncle." ”
"Don't worry, there are more than ten days, there is time to prepare."
"Whatever the uncle wants, I'll prepare to do it," Qingwen said anxiously and quickly, "I'll do it in a few days." ”
"Why, didn't you say you didn't want to do it for me?" Xue Pan raised his eyebrows and quipped, "Why are you free again this time?" ”
Qingwen snorted coldly and didn't speak, but sat down again and continued to embroider the pattern of the mandarin duck, "Although that's true, I still remember my identity, there are people who don't work in this girl, and the old lady said that I came here to work for the uncle." ”
"I'm going out," Xue Pan commanded, "you stay at home well, your temperament is a little anxious, but there is also the advantage of being anxious, if someone bullies his wife and girl, he can't always ask you to come forward." ”
