47 Yuanyang Hotel
After Biwan went to Mrs Yu's place, she saw a woman at the gate of Mrs Yu carrying several pots of peonies that were in full bloom. This is because the Yu family and Cheng Yu both observe filial piety, so naturally they can't display any bright colors. Although the peonies are more expensive, but fortunately they are white and plain in color. There is also a pot or two in there. Otherwise, the whole yard would be empty with flowers and plants pulled out, it would be hard to look down.
It's just that Mrs. Yu's temperament is different from others. He doesn't like flowers and plants. Even in the yard, he only grows pines, cypresses and bamboos. How can this add flowers.
Bi Wan asked out of curiosity.
The woman who took care of the yard knew that Bi Wan was Cheng Yu's most powerful person, and they, servants of servants, didn't understand the entanglements of those masters. Just look at the people who follow Cheng Yu dressed as well as they can be counted in the mansion, although it is not as exaggerated as the old lady Xiao Min's personal girl can compare with the biological girl who was born to the third master.
But the people around Cheng Yu end up in a better place than Xiao Min's. Whether it's a girl getting married or a mother-in-law taking care of her, it's as appropriate as it is. Cheng Yu also married two or three girls in the past two years, but not many of them married boys and servants. They were all small merchants with foundation and property, and even one of the best girls married a family with fame. The close wife will share money when she is old, and those who have no children will give it back for the elderly. I heard that this is the rule of the Cheng family. I never saw that you were too old to do any work, so you threw a hand at Zhuangzi and endured his life and death.
As I get older, I don't want to be in the moment, so I rush to have Zhang Yuan take care of me.
The woman who looks after the yard in Yu's place has this idea. Her surname is Zhang, and everyone calls her Mrs. Zhang. She also knew that she was too old to keep up with Cheng Yu. But there is still a seven or eight-year-old girl in her family. If she can go to Cheng Yu's side, she will be able to settle down. So the old woman regarded Cheng Yu as a reliable tree, and Biwan, Cheng Yu's personal girl, was naturally willing to please her as long as she could.
After hearing Biwan's question, Mrs. Zhang immediately replied with a flattering smile: "Isn't this what was left from the previous renovation of the garden? The gardener also belonged to the Cui family. Seeing that there are two pots of flowers left, it seems that our place is so clean and pitiful." , so the boy in charge of the garden brought it over. But the young lady didn't like it, so those people were carried to the door. The young lady didn't tell me, let me drag it away. "
Bi Wan thought to herself: Since Mrs. Yu is a widow, the one who came to build the garden would not be a woman. If she brought potted flowers like this, it would be the fault of Mrs. Yu for not wanting them. Who is this gardener? To be so wandering, taking advantage of the chaos in the mansion, to disturb the widow's door.
Thinking that Cheng Yu treats the Yu family differently, Bi Wan asked a little more: "The one who built the garden is the one from the Cao family? Are you so thoughtful?"
"It seems that Grandma Liu's family in the back alley is called Cui Zheng. His grandfather is the concubine brother of the Duke. Although he is also a son of a son, he is very good at raising flowers and plants, and he doesn't think it's rough work." Mrs. Zhang laughed. road.
Having said this, Mrs. Zhang suspected that Biwan was old enough to inquire about her marriage, so she laughed again and said, "But he is quite a nice person, he is also handsome, and I heard that he has a higher family background. But girl you..."
Bi Wan heard what Mrs. Zhang meant, and although she was angry in her heart, she still smiled and said, "Mom, I see where you have gone, but I just asked by the way. Where is Sister Ziyang? You can stay in the house."
"Here, in the house, but he's also sick. It's strange that he hasn't been energetic these days."
Mrs. Zhang said quickly, wishing she could tell Bi Wan everything she knew.
"Sick? Then I have to go see her. Mom, you can't do the work alone. I'll ask a few people to help you move it later." Bi Wan laughed.
"Then I would like to thank the girl for your help." Mrs. Zhang pretended to salute and said jokingly.
Bi Wan smiled and nodded and entered the courtyard, and after handing over the medicinal materials and supplements to Shi Yu, she brought Cheng Yu's words with her. After that, Bi Wan went to look for Ziyang.
As soon as she entered Ziyang's room, Biwan saw Ziyang leaning on the pillow and frowning, she really looked sick.
Bi Wan smiled and said: "Eldest Young Madam is ill, but she looks more energetic than before. You are usually lively, but now you are sick and look like a sick Xi Shi."
Ziyang didn't have the time to grind their teeth with Biwan, because Cheng Yu had sent some things over, so Biwan and Ziyang also had some friendship. Hearing Biwan's joke at this time, Ziyang only forced a smile.
At this time, the little girl came in from outside, and said with a smile: "Sister Ziyang and the young lady got sick from the same rain. That day, sister Ziyang gave the young lady a mat..."
"Don't talk nonsense." Ziyang's complexion changed, and she cursed with all her strength.
The little girl said something that wasn't important at all, but Bi Wan was also taken aback by letting Zi Yang speak like this. Seeing that the little girl was about to cry, she hurriedly said to the little girl, "Get out quickly, she is already sick like this, and you still recruit her."
That little girl just came here as an errand, so she didn't guard against a funny remark and complained instead. Although she was wronged in her heart, she didn't dare to show her face in front of those two big girls. He just pursed his lips and went out aggrieved.
Seeing that little girl went out, Ziyang also let out a long breath, and said: "What are you talking about her again, she is not the same as us, she is a poor person."
Bi Wan smiled: "You're here to be a good person again. Who was the one who treated her the most? Who am I speaking for?"
Ziyang smiled wryly: "It would be great if I could be a good person for the rest of my life, I'm afraid I'm not a human if I'm left behind."
Biwan guessed that Ziyang had encountered some difficult things, so she guessed and persuaded: "There are no difficult things in the world, the big deal is to get out of the world and just ignore it. It's better than people who are not human..."
Originally, Ziyang was the girl who went to deliver cushions to Mrs Yu that day, but she left, but when she returned to the yard, she didn't see Mrs Yu, so she went out to look for it again. In the end, I saw Yu Shi and Qing Yuan together, which really frightened Ziyang, and it was really difficult for her to become a mandarin duck. Ziyang has been with Yu Shi since she entered the mansion, and Yu's maids and women have changed a few times, but she is the only one who stays.
She knows Yu Shi's suffering, and also knows how kind Yu Shi is.
She didn't want to tell this matter to the outside world, so as to harm Mrs. Yu. She was also afraid that the matter would be exposed, and she would be implicated by Mrs. Yu.
Empress Yu also knew that Ziyang had seen what happened, so she only told her to tell her if she wanted to. Mrs Yu doesn't resent her, maybe he should be grateful to her. This way, Ziyang will not speak out. It's just that this incident made her feel heavy. When she had nightmares at night, she somehow dreamed that Mrs. Yu was going to kill her to silence her. When she woke up, she knew that Mrs. Yu was not such a person, but she was still afraid.
In this way, the disease becomes serious.
These words, no matter how Ziyang said it, he could only keep it in his heart.
Listening to Bi Wan's words at this time, she thought that now there was only one way to get away from this place.
Although Mrs. Yu was ill, she changed her clothes and went to bed after reciting sutras as usual. It's not that she believes in Buddhism, she's just used to it. In this deep house and compound, in these days when there is no end in sight, this is the only thing I can do.
Lying in bed, Yu closed his eyes, but still fell asleep.
She thought that today Cheng Yu sent someone to give her a lot of things. Logically speaking, a person like her has nothing to make friends with or use. In this Duke's Mansion, where the whole city looks towards wealth and honor, why does Cheng Yu help her so much
It seems that there is only kindness in the heart, this is the saying.
Listening to Cheng Yu's various virtuous actions and how he tolerated concubines, it seems that she should also be a kind person in her heart.
While thinking about it, Mrs. Yu heard a sound by the window.
When she wanted to get up slowly to look, the man had already entered the room.
At this time, there was still a person in the dark room, and that person seemed to think she was asleep, and walked to her bedside lightly. Put something next to her pillow, then sat on the edge of her bed and touched her face.
The man's hand was warm, with a hint of sweet fragrance.
"Is it Qing Yuan?" Yu asked softly.
The man covered Yu Shi's mouth lightly, and said in a low voice: "Young Madam, don't make a sound."
The voice that spoke was indeed Qing Yuan.
Seeing Qing Yuan covering her mouth again, Mrs. Yu smiled and said in a low voice: "Ziyang is sick, and Zhang's mother went out to drink. Just a little girl went back to sleep early, don't be afraid."
Yu's lips sat on the palm of Qing Yuan's palm, rubbing them open and closed.
Qing Yuan quickly withdrew his hand, and Yu could hear his shy voice saying: "I heard that the young lady is ill, I am worried that the young lady is afraid of the pain of the medicine, and it is hard to say. I bought some for the young lady. candied fruit back”
Yu frowned: "How do you know I'm afraid of suffering?"
"I don't know when I found out, I just kept looking at the young lady, and I knew..." Qing Yuan said with a low laugh.
There is a kind of silly and silly energy.
Yu lowered her head and smiled, "That's right, you're not afraid of being caught, you're not afraid of death."
"Young madam is not afraid, Qing Yuan has nothing to fear." Qing Yuan said.
In the dark, Yu couldn't see Qing Yuan's earnest appearance, only Qing Yuan's eyes.
Yu Shi smiled: "Stay here tonight?"
Qing Yuan suddenly became silent, even stopped breathing, and ran to the window in a panic after a while.
Then she stopped again, and said to Yu in a trembling voice in the darkness: "Qing Wan, you, you should go to bed earlier... I'm leaving first..."
Then escaped and left here.
Shi Yu stayed there for a while, even after a long time, Shi Yu still felt that Qing Yuan's voice calling her name still remained in this darkness.
