A world of glory

Peiyu's face became paler, and she just said: "It's not like this. If there is still a way to think about it in the past, next year will be Chunwei. If you ask the old lady for this matter, you will be more and more convinced, and you will ruin your son's future. But if we go out, let alone anything else, I'm afraid there will be troubles in the yard again."

Lanyue drank the tea in one gulp, put the cup heavily on the table, and said excitedly: "It must be the villain who fanned the flames with the screwdriver. Even if I want to go out, I have to take care of them first."

Nongyun hurriedly pulled Lanyue back, and persuaded: "Sister, don't say such things, that screwdriver makes things, and usually just gossips, the root cause of this matter has nothing to do with them." As soon as the words came out, Lanyue Both Yue and Peiyu were dejected and speechless, they just lowered their heads and thought for a moment.

But Yizhuyuan was doing needlework in the house, and he heard that Zisu was sick, so he took some pills and a pack of bird's nest, and wanted to order someone to deliver them, but he couldn't find a suitable person for a while, so he packed it up by himself. Go see perilla.

Entering the main courtyard, I saw that all the maids and women in the courtyard were a little lazy, and they didn't salute when they saw her coming. After asking, I found out that it was Madam and Mrs. Gu who went out to offer incense, no wonder the maids and women were like this.Yizhu has always been magnanimous, never cared about these trivial matters, and ignored them, just found a little girl she knew with a smile and asked: "Is Zisu better? Who else is in the house?"

The little maid hurriedly replied: "Sister Zisu is lying in the room, just now she ordered someone to decoct the medicine, but no one else went in." Then she led Yizhu into the room.

After entering the room, I saw Zisu lying on the bed, her face was pale and bloodless, and seeing Yizhu came to see her, she hurriedly sent a little maid to pour tea, and sat up with her back.

Yizhu hurriedly put away things to help her, and said with a smile: "I heard that you are sick, and I don't know what's going on. I just brought a package of bird's nest and some pills for health. If you don't mind it, you can order the little girl to boil it on weekdays." Yes, it’s also a benefit.”

Hearing what Yizhu said, Zisu's eyes turned red, and she only said with tears in her eyes: "It's only you who come to see me. In the past, everyone was kind, but when I saw that I was sick, there was no one to pour water. I'm afraid I'll get sick."

Seeing this situation, Yizhu also guessed a little bit in her heart, and she only relieved: "I see it's just a minor illness, and it will be cured in two days. I know you feel wronged, but they also have difficulties, so don't worry about them right now. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

Hearing this, Zisu coughed a few times, and said again: "Why don't I understand, it's just that I used to be very affectionate, but when I got sick, I didn't even have a shadow of myself, and I was in a daze when I heard the little girl say that the mansion is going to let people out. He must be thinking about my seat." Before he finished speaking, tears fell, he just dabbed on his sleeve randomly, and said with a wry smile: "It's just that I'm ill at the wrong time, if this illness doesn't go well tomorrow, I'm afraid I was the first one to go out, and I don't know how I was abused by others."

Yizhu sighed inwardly, and only tried to persuade him: "Who can push you to go, anyway, I have served Madam for so many years, and Madam is merciful and compassionate, I can't let you out when you are sick, at most You go out to raise her for a couple of days, and then come back in when you're done. Jin Feng, who is beside the old lady, went out for a month because of her mother's affairs, but she still came in to be her maid. I wasted my mind, wasting all my energy. This disease will naturally heal soon.”

Hearing Yizhu's persuasion, Zisu relieved her worry a little, and it happened that the little maid who was pouring tea came in with a tea tray and said, "Mother Qin and Mother Zhang are here."

Just as they were talking, two very respectable old ladies in brocade and silk came in. As soon as they came in, they saw Yizhu sitting by the bed, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Miss Yizhu is also here, and I greet the two girls."

Then Mother Qin had already gone out, and when she saw that Zisu was not well, she smiled and said, "I came in yesterday and was kept by the old lady for one night, and today I came to kowtow to my wife, and I heard that the girl is not well, I looked like It’s because of the heat, did you ask the doctor to see it?”

Zisu's face was calm, and she said with a smile: "I have already invited you, and I have prescribed a lot of bitter medicine, but I have no strength." Then she blamed the little maid and said: "I am like this, how can I ask two mothers to come and see me?" , if the sickness is over, it is my fault."

But Zhang's mother is very good at talking, and she is related to the stewards in the mansion. Most of the people surnamed Zhang in the mansion are relatives of her family. She should have gone out at her age, but she is still working in the mansion. An idler, seeing what Zisu said, hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Miss, what you said, we old women are all coming and going in the wind and rain, and even the strong wind can't blow us down, so why are we afraid of being angry?" .” As soon as these words came out, several people in the room laughed.

After a few more gossips, Zisu said to Yizhu: "You still have an errand on your body. Although the eldest son is lenient, if you miss the job because of my illness, it's not good. I'd better go back and watch. It's only a few minutes away. Bulu, wouldn't it be appropriate to come and accompany me after the errand is over."

Yizhu hurriedly responded with a smile, and said: "You can rest easy and recuperate, and I will come to see you when I am free." After saying that, she was about to go out, and the old woman also got up and said with a smile: "I also want to go to the west. Let's go with Miss Yizhu." Zisu hurriedly ordered the little maid to send the two of them out, and only Mother Qin stayed in the room to talk to Zisu.

After leaving the main courtyard, Yizhu and Zhang's mother walked along the corridor. Zhang's mother kept asking about Yizhu's situation, such as who else is in the family, how old is this year, how many years has she been in the mansion Ah, the words are gentle and soft, like a spring breeze, but in a short while, he has made a clear picture of Yizhu's details.

Walking into the plum grove, Zhang's mother suddenly smiled and said, "Miss Yizhu, I have something to say, don't be annoyed."

Yi Zhu just smiled back and said: "Mother just say what she wants." Immediately, she stopped and listened to Zhang's mother's words.

Zhang's mother smiled happily: "I just heard from the girl that it is already fifteen, but I don't know if it has been promised?"

After hearing this, Yizhu was so ashamed that she couldn't lift her head up, she just held back her smile, and replied: "Mom's words are so rude, I'm a son of a family, and the master decides about the marriage, so there's no reason for it to be private... "At the end of the speech, the voice became softer and softer, and two groups of red clouds flew up on the face.

After hearing this, Zhang's mother became even more delighted, and only smiled: "Don't be angry, girl, I'm talking about happy events." Seeing Yi Zhu's face flushed with shame, she liked it even more, and said again : "I have a family, also surnamed Zhang, and the family is also the steward of the mansion. Later, I begged my wife to let it go, and I also bought a few acres of land and a few shops. The eldest son of the family went to a private school since he was a child, and he was also full of knowledge. I don't have any other brothers, but only one younger sister, who is already engaged. To be honest, she is a good person who can't be found even with a lantern. I saw that the girl has a gentle temperament, not to mention her appearance, this behavior is also very annoying. People like it, so I said this to the girl, and I think the girl understands the meaning."

The more Yizhu listened, the more shameful she got, she pulled away and wanted to leave, but when Zhang's mother saw that Yizhu was going to leave, she knew that she was shy, so she quickly grabbed Yizhu's hand, and said with a smile: "I know the girl is shy, but this marriage It couldn't be better. Although the girl is the person next to the eldest son, she couldn't be more decent, but she was released, but she is still a waiter when she is paired with a boy. Honorable."

Yizhu was so ashamed that she couldn't help it. She wanted to pull her hand out, but she couldn't. She just bit her lower lip tightly, twisted her handkerchief, and said with difficulty: "You can talk about this, so mother should not talk about it." , it’s embarrassing.”

After saying this, another well-dressed woman came over from Meilin, and said with a smile: "What's so embarrassing, I heard that this girl is unwilling." Then she smiled at Zhang's mother and said, "Sister Zhang It's really confused, this girl Yizhu is the big servant girl next to the eldest son, if she doesn't make it right, she will fly into the sky someday, then we will have to call my aunt and grandma." The words were sarcasm, and she was angry. Zhu's face turned pale, and he shook off Zhang's mother's hand and wanted to walk back.

But that old lady was ignorant, seeing that Yizhu ignored her and she was a good-natured person, she put on her face even more, and said to Zhang's mother with a smile: "Sister Zhang doesn't know, the girls around the eldest son, They are all proud and arrogant masters, how can they look down on a son in charge, a lady who is a scholar, how can she compare to an official wife, maybe she can be ordered in the future, is that decent and honorable?"

Hearing what the woman said, Zhang's mother lost her temper, and she only persuaded Yizhu: "I know that the girl is tender-faced, and some things are hard to say. But to be honest, the mansion It is also extremely honorable, but the girl can also see what kind of life the aunts of the two houses are living. The old saying is good: I would rather be a wife of a poor family than a concubine of a rich family. Besides, the eldest son is only old now, and the girl is afraid I haven't fulfilled my wish yet, I've been married out indiscriminately, how can it be worth marrying out of the house, as long as the girl agrees, someone will ask for the master's grace."

Yi Zhu was angry and annoyed, frowned, and said: "Mom is not guilty of saying this, I have never had such thoughts, since mother is decent, she will ask for it." As she said, her eyes were red with anger, The teardrops in my eyes were holding back.

The woman heard this, sneered at this and interjected: "Look at this, the girl is still wronged, I only said this for the sake of sister Zhang, the good marriage that was sent to the door should not be done, just thinking about climbing high branches, I don't even look at whether I have that kind of luck. Besides, I'm afraid the girl doesn't know, it's spread all over the house, and the maids around the young masters are all grown up, and they want to let everyone out this year, the girl's sweet dream You should wake up too."

Yi Zhu was short-tempered, and only sneered, "Although I am the son of a family, I also recognize my master. I don't know whether to let him go or not. As long as the master doesn't say anything, I won't go out after death."
