It's snowing, and little white and flawless snowflakes are falling from the sky, like beautiful silver butterflies dancing. The snow is getting bigger and bigger, the snowflakes are flying all over the sky, like smoke but not smoke, like fog and not fog, as if the whole world is shrouded in a vast snow.
In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the earth dragon was already burned in the house. Yuxi sits in the warm room and looks at chess records. Nowadays, studying chess has become Yuxi's best hobby, surpassing embroidery.
Mo Ju walked in quickly. She didn't dare to approach Yuxi because she was cold. She said at the door: "Girl, Mo Tao fell and can't get up now." The ground was frozen, Mo Tao accidentally slipped while carrying the food container.
Yuxi said hurriedly, "Hurry up and ask the doctor." Motao is the least aggressive of Yuxi's four maids. He usually does things with his head and has the weakest sense of existence. But this doesn't mean that Yuxi doesn't take care of ink peaches, on the contrary, Yuxi still values ink peaches very much.
Mo Ju hurriedly nodded in response: "Girl, we need to wait for breakfast." Mo Tao threw all of Yuxi's breakfast to the ground, and the big kitchen had to get another one. But I have to get an extra breakfast in the big kitchen, which is definitely slower than usual.
Yuxi calculated the time, she must be late to wait for the big kitchen to finish breakfast. Yuxi said, "You don't need to make it anymore, just take what you have in the kitchen." If you have a small kitchen, you don't need to be so troublesome. But this can only be something to think about. Only the old lady and the elder aunt have a small kitchen in the mansion, but nothing else.
A quarter of an hour later, breakfast arrived. The breakfast this time was very simple, only steamed buns and a bowl of millet porridge.
Yuxi didn't pick it up, and was ready to go to Yulan Garden after eating.
When she went out, mother Shen had to add a coat to Yuxi, but Yuxi blocked her: "I wear a leather jacket and it's not cold." She is now much stronger than before, and she doesn't need to be wrapped in a zongzi anymore. Like.
Mother Shen couldn't help Yuxi, so she could only give up.
At the door of Yulan Garden, Yuxi saw Yuchen. Because it was extremely cold these two days, Yuchen didn't come over to learn the piano early in the morning.
Yuchen was wearing a silver-white satin mink cloak, and his head was covered by the cloak's hat. After entering the class, Yuchen took off the cloak, revealing the water-red knee-length silver rat inside.
Yuxi glanced at the cloak, but his eyes fell on the ice jade gourd bracelet on Yuchen's wrist. Yuchen doesn't usually wear many jewelry, but as long as he wears it, it must be a fine product, and it is basically not the same each time. Yuxi only looks at the jewellery that Yuchen wears every time, which can make her gain a lot of knowledge.
Yuxi turned his head and looked at Shi Shu's defensive eyes. It feels really uncomfortable to be guarded by people and thieves. Yuxi ignored this feeling before, but today she felt a touch of irritation. She deliberately smiled and said to Chao Zhu: "Sister, your bracelet is so beautiful, can you show me."
The gourd means "Fu Lu", this gourd bracelet is made of ice-type old anti-jades. The six sun-green jade gourds are bright in color, crystal clear and full of vitality.
Yuxi couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing it, "It's so beautiful."
Upon seeing this, Shi Shu hurriedly said, "This bracelet was given to my girl by the old lady a few days ago." Everyone present knew what it meant.
When Mo Ju heard this, his eyes burst into flames with anger.
There are some things that everyone knows well, but if they are said it will be embarrassing. But this time, Shi Shu really angered Yuxi. Yuxi looked at Shi Shu and said with a smile, "What you don't know, I thought I was plotting the bracelet of the third sister."
Shi Shu didn't expect Yuxi to speak so straightforwardly, his face instantly stiffened. No matter how much she is loved by the old lady and the girl, she is also a maid, how can she compare with the four girls.
Yuchen didn't know why Yuxi suddenly got into trouble, and said with a smile: "It's not a valuable thing. If the fourth sister likes it, I will give it to you."
Hearing these words, Yuxi felt very uncomfortable. He felt that valuable things looked like weeds on the side of the road in the eyes of others. This felt really uncomfortable. Yuxi smiled and said: "No, there are so many beautiful things in the world, I can't see it and take it for myself." After saying this, he handed the bracelet to Yuchen, and bowed his head to sort it out. My own book.
Returning to the Rose House after class, Mother Shen said with a smile on her face: "Girl, the new year gift from the master has arrived." Today is the eighteenth of the twelfth lunar month, and it's really time for Li to come this year.
Ok-hee said nothing but nothing. Although Han Jingyan was a foreigner in her previous life, it did not hinder her Confucian love for Han Jingyan. Even when she was wronged before, she thought that it would be fine if her father was in the mansion, so that no one could bully her. But it was unexpected that Han Jingyan would treat her as nothing after returning to Beijing, and would never care about being bullied by the Wu clan. That's all, knowing that Jiang's family is a fire pit and pushing her to the fire pit, is this the biological father? Those who didn't know thought it was her enemy. Therefore, she no longer has a half-hearted love for Han Jingyan's cold-blooded biological father.
Mother Shen looked at Yuxi's unsatisfactory expression, and screamed in her heart. She looked at the girl's expression and didn't care at all about the master's neglect. This does not mean that the girl is also not close to the master. This is not true: "Girl, the master gave a lot of things this time."
Yuxi thought for a while and asked, "If I remember correctly, Dad has been in Hebei for five years and will be six years old next year. Will Dad come back next year?"
Shen's mother said with a smile: "I heard that the master's political achievements are all excellent, and it is likely to be raised next year." If you want to raise it, you will definitely not come back.
Yuxi was silent for a while and said, "Mother Shen, what kind of person is my stepmother?" Seeing that Shen's mother was silent, Yuxi said, "If my mother is not sure, I can go to someone from Hebei to inquire this time. a bit."
Mother Shen's face was a little unnatural.
Yuxi didn't say anything in person, but she turned her head and asked Hongshan to find out about the Wu family. Hongshan has a good relationship, and Yuxi gave her money to make money, and soon heard the news.
Hong Shan talked about the basic situation of Wu Clan that he had inquired about.
After hearing what Hongshan said, Yuxi deliberately pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "What else?" After spending a few taels of silver, he found out the number of wives and concubines and aunts and siblings in Hebei. The news is too simple. .
Hongshan said: "It is said that the third wife is rigorous in managing the family, and she is very organized inside and out, which is very important to the master." Hongshan is actually a little worried. From the news we have heard, we can see that the future mistress of Sanfang is not. A good-natured person, which is very unfavorable for her girl.
Yuxi chuckled. It is good for Wu's family to be stricter, but it is not enough to inquire about such useless news. It should be that these people think she gave less money. She inquired about Wu's news only to behave. She had been with Wu's family for several years in her previous life, and she was very clear about Wu's temperament.
Yuxi said to herself: "There are still many years left, so don't worry." It wasn't until she was eleven years old that Wu Clan followed her father back to Beijing. As soon as Wu came back, he fought for the right of housekeeping with his eldest aunt. The two had fought openly and secretly for several years, until her niece Qiu Yanfu designed the second brother to completely tear her face apart.
Hongshan didn't hear what Yuxi was saying, and asked, "Girl, what are you talking about?"
Yuxi raised her head and returned to her usual look: "It's not a big deal to say that my stepmother is a powerful character, and the grandmother is in charge of the house." A few years is enough time for her to prepare. She was stupid in the last life, so in this life, Wu Clan will not want to step on her head again.
At this time, Qiu's family was looking at the list of New Year gifts sent by Hebei, and his face was ugly after reading it.
Mother Li looked bad, and asked hurriedly: "Madam, what's the matter?"
Qiu gave the list to Mum Li and said, "I have sent a few big cars all the way, but they are all worthless things. I won the title and didn't spend a lot of money. It's a good calculation!" Things were given away in a few large cars, but the total amount was only two to three thousand taels.
After Mama Li finished reading it, her face didn't look very good: "This Wu clan is getting more and more exaggerated." There are more and more New Year gifts, but it's a pity that there are less and less valuable things.
Qiu's sneered: "She thinks everyone in the world is a fool, but she is smart!" She wants face, but she doesn't want to give up money. Where is such a cheap thing in this world.
Mother Li calmed down: "Madam, during the assessment period in March next year, the three masters have been working as Tongzhi for six years. If you are not on a business trip, you should mention it this time. This matter must be pointed out with the old lady and will be arranged next year. You can’t get your money from the public.” When her wife got married, the government’s government was in deficit year after year. It took her wife a lot of effort to reach the current balance of payments. Why does her wife do so exhaustedly? It's not for the second master.
The Qiu family understood the meaning of these words, but she hesitated a little: "You mean the old lady should pay the cash for the set-up?" The Qiu family is not tight-handed, she has nothing to think about the money in the old lady's hand. Just thinking that Wu Clan was holding the money tightly and let the mansion pay for it, but he was not willing.
Mother Li said, "Madam, even if the Wu family is unclear, the third master is not confused. I believe the third master must have let his confidant give money to the old lady, and let the old lady help with the management. We have to borrow this matter. , Let the old lady know Wu's character." The third master is a family member, it is impossible not to know that money is needed for management. It is definitely impossible for the government to pay this money.
Qiu's had a headache: "If Mr. Wu comes back, this mansion is probably going to be less quiet." Although I haven't seen this Mr. Wu, I know it's not good looking at this behavior.
Mother Li smiled, "Madam, don’t worry. When Wu comes back, it’s not the wife who will meet first, but the third girl and the fourth girl." The third and fourth girls followed Mr. Song to learn, even if they only learned the fur, Wu It is impossible for the two girls to be able to survive.
The Qiu clan shook his head and said, "No matter how great the three girls and four girls are, they always rely on their brothers at home. It is impossible for them to fight against the Wu clan."
Mother Li didn't argue with Qiu's, only time could prove this kind of thing. However, she believed that the third girl and the fourth girl were definitely not the one who swallowed their voices. As long as Wu clan returns to the capital, her good life will come to an end.
