[Red Mansion] The adopted son of the Lin family

That Bai Shao was originally the best-looking of the family's children, and was picked to serve in the Linze courtyard since he was a child, so he was naturally very proud.But not long after, Mammy bought a lot of girls outside, all of them were very good looking and temperamental, and they were as gentle and considerate as others.All of a sudden, the maids working in the courtyard changed a lot.

Bai Shao was afraid that she would be squeezed out too, but she didn't expect his wife to order another nanny, saying that the uncle is still young, and it would be unruly if there is no mature and prudent nanny by his side.Because all the little girls in the courtyard were promoted to a higher level, but they were not allowed to serve close by.Only pick up those who are about the same age as the uncle, or the same age, or two or three years older, and see that among them they are clean and tidy, with a proper and meticulous temperament, and then stay as second-class maids.

Come to think of it, she was only four or five years old at the time, and she was supposed to be playing around, but she was given the title of a second-class maid.I also thought in my heart, in the future, it is difficult for the uncle to still use these old mothers, and naturally it is time for these good-looking and good-tempered maids to show up.Bai Shao had the right plan in her heart, but just as the nanny was praising her from time to time, a girl bought from outside asked her to rape her.

Of these two girls, one has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, the other has a smooth mouth and good manners, and they are both on par in appearance.The only difference is that one is a girl born in the mansion, and the other is a girl bought from outside.But Bai Shao was very dissatisfied in her heart, even after she tried her best to squeeze into the ranks of the first-class maids, she was extremely dissatisfied.

However, after all these years, the rules taught by the nanny have never fallen behind for a single day.In getting along with Bai Guo day and night, it may not be obvious that there are many emotions on the face, but today the uncle is going to go on a long journey, although it is not that he will not come back, but the maid who is taken out must be the first person in the uncle's heart. Where can I hold back.

Hearing Bai Guo's light persuasion again, Bai Shao couldn't help but sneer, "It's my eyes that are shallow, and I don't even know about these things after all." Seeing Bai Guo's face was calm, Bai Shao put her arms around her waist, " You are the most useful person around the uncle, what are we? You are good, but we are not as good as you in every way. One day, when you fly to the branches, we will still kneel down The day to call you grandma is coming!"

Bai Zhu and Bai Ji, who were packing the tea bowls outside, looked at each other, feeling a little scared in their hearts.They were a step behind Ginkgo and Baishao in everything, and they were soft-tempered and never quarreled with anyone.I have also served in Lin Ze's house for several years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this is the most decent job.Who in the whole family doesn't know that the uncle has the gentlest temper, and he really treats them very well.What's more, the four of them worked together and were promoted together, the friendship between them was never hurt, but now seeing Bai Shao's pretty face full of anger, pointing at her nose and scolding Bai Guo, she was very scared. But dare not stop.

Bai Guo kindly persuaded her, but who knew that her words were inappropriate, but Bai Shao rushed forward in one breath.The words in his mouth became more and more unruly, and it sounded like the thoughts that the screwdriver shouldn't have had gradually turned up.I couldn't help being anxious, my face was flushed red but I didn't dare to speak anymore, I was afraid that Bai Shao would say something else in a hurry.

This was originally Bai Guo's exquisite thought, but Bai Shao is not willing to accept her love.Seeing that Bai Guo remained silent, her face was flushed, and her eyes were even more angry.I just thought: what are you, but you bought it from outside, and you want everything in the house. Don't say it, but now I've hit the mark, and you don't make a distinction, but you blush shamelessly!For a moment, I thought, the uncle has such a face and such a temperament, not to mention the uncle in the house, even an ordinary status can be picked up by people, but this hoof is more important!Then he sneered and said: "You don't have to be wronged, what are you doing to hide and say nothing like this? Could it be that you are waiting for the uncle to come back, and you still have to sue me in front of the uncle?"

Before Bai Guo could speak, a little girl who was feeding birds in the yard slipped in from the outside, and seeing Bai Guo and Bai Shao standing in the inner room, she whispered to Bai Shu, "My dear sister, I'm here to borrow a needle and thread from you, do you have any?" gone?"

Before Bai Shu could speak, Bai Shao over there lifted the curtain of the cubicle, stared at a pair of almond eyes and scolded: "You don't have eyes, you are a little whore, and you only look at me when you do those shameless things every day. I don't even think about it, I know very well which needle in this room has moved, and I can't look down on the obscene and seductive behavior all day long!"

Glancing at Bai Guo whose face was about to bleed, he just snorted, and said to the little girl who was trembling from being scolded: "What are you! Those who work outside are here to take care of what we want. Master, it’s just that we saw you pitifully and bought you in to serve. Could it be that we thought that we would be bossy when we climbed a branch? Now we are standing in this inner courtyard again, and we don’t want to think about who you are Stand carefully and dirty this place, and lean on this door." After finishing speaking, he pushed the little girl hard and went outside.

Bai Guo came out with a blushing face, and saw that the little girl's shoulders trembled slightly, her face was pale, and the tears in her eyes were about to fall.Then he sighed: "You go out first." Seeing the little girl's legs trembling, she was really frightened by Bai Shao's scolding, so she turned her head and said to Bai Shu, "What kind of needle and thread is she here for?" ? Be careful not to take it by mistake, and give it away."

For a while, Bai Shu took a few pictures of the flowers he had just drawn and wrapped them in a newly embroidered handkerchief, the little girl thanked her tremblingly, and was sent out by Bai Shu, without further ado.Seeing that there was no one in the room, Bai Ji persuaded in a low voice: "My good sister, you must not get angry with Sister Bai Shao, she is the most unforgiving in her mouth, but her heart is not bad."

Bai Guo nodded, only forced a smile and said: "How can I be angry with her, even if we have a very good relationship, we will inevitably have a few arguments, how can these few words be worth our mutual life. Then he said to Baiji: "She must be feeling very uncomfortable today, let her rest for a while, and I'm afraid she will turn around in the evening tomorrow. I have to bother you and Baizhu to come in with me to tidy up the uncle's clothes and shoes." hat."

When Baiji heard this, his eyes lit up immediately.It turns out that she is the one among the four who is equal, her appearance is not as gorgeous as that of Bai Shao, her age is not as young as Bai Shao's, and her temperament is not as soft and considerate as Bai Guo's.Zhenzhen seldom uses her, and now he finally finds a gap between the white peony root and the ginkgo fruit, and wants to get in in a hurry.He also thought that although Lin Ze had treated them well in the past, he did not have as many opportunities as Bai Shao and Bai Guo to show their faces in front of the uncle and wife.Seeing that Bai Guo is willing to use her, how could she be unwilling, and immediately followed Bai Guo back into the room without mentioning it.

Besides, after Bai Shao vented her anger, she felt her heart choked up again, unable to vomit or swallow, she flung the curtain and went into her own room.Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the room, he saw that the dowry that Bai Guo used to get up in the morning hadn't been packed yet, so he couldn't help going over and sitting down, looking at what was in the dowry.

Two purses with fine stitches, four or five Ruyi ingot-shaped barley, and several cloisonne bracelets with auspicious Ruyi patterns.That's all.Bai Shao pouted, feeling bored.He also thought of the things in his small box, which were no more than ginkgo's.He also thought, after all, she is a child of the family, but whenever the wife asks someone to answer, how can she not think of her first?It was nothing more than seeing her when he was looking for her, so he asked Bai Guo to go back. In this way, Bai Guo didn't get any benefits, so he couldn't use it for himself.For a moment, most of the anger in my heart went away, and I became proud again.

In the evening, Jia Min asked Lurou to send a little girl to the courtyard of Lin Ze and Daiyu to spread the word, saying that his wife left the uncle and the girl to eat in the courtyard, so I won't say more.He only said that when Bai Guo heard this, he smiled and blessed the maidservant who came to pass the message, and said with a smile: "It's a cold day, please trouble sister to go this way. If you don't rush to go back, why don't you stay in our courtyard?" Would you like to have a bite before going?"

The servant girl hastily declined and said: "Where is this? How can I take credit for what is my duty?" Seeing that there were only three people in the room, she asked suspiciously: "Why is Bai Shao not seen? Where did she go to play?"

It turned out that this maid was called Qiulan, she was the third-class maid in Jia Min's courtyard, she often used Bai Shao's conversations with her, and she would say a few words in her spare time, she was several years older than Bai Shao, so she called her sister As a self-proclaimed person, she thinks about Bai Shao in everything.Just as she was talking, a person rushed in from outside the house, and when the maid saw Qiulan was here, she first smiled a little.He said affectionately: "Why is sister Qiulan here? Why do you want to come and sit with us in this cold day?" Seeing that there were only ginkgo, Baizhu and Baiji in the room, he asked, "It's so late, sir. Have you not come back yet?"

Qiulan laughed, and pointed Bai Shao's forehead with that finger, and said with a smile: "Usually I see you are sharp-tongued and the most clever and sensible, but why are you clumsy today? If the uncle wants to come back for dinner, he would have come back long ago. Can wait till now. You're confused."

When Bai Shao was told by Qiu Lan, her face turned red.Several people kept Qiulan for dinner again and again, but Qiulan still refused, only saying that his wife was still waiting for an answer, and there was no need to talk about it in the future.However, Bai Shao personally sent Qiulan to the gate of the courtyard and stopped. Qiulan glanced at the main room, then lowered her voice and said, "I have something to tell you." Seeing Bai Shao's confusion, she just said: "You guys Among the four, I am afraid that the restless one will have bad intentions, you just have to be careful, don't let that little hoof stab the knife in the back."

Bai Shao was very puzzled, when she was about to ask, she heard Bai Guo standing in front of the door calling her from afar.For a while, I left Qiulan and went to the house, thinking about Qiulan's words and couldn't let go.Seeing Bai Guo's worried eyes, he felt a little awkward, and he just said that he was not feeling well, so he went to rest early.

Unexpectedly, on the second day, I heard from Bai Guo that the uncle lost his temper at night and sent the bletilla striata away, and no one would beg for mercy.
