It's almost the Chinese New Year, so Qiaoyun naturally wants to come to Zhen Guogong's mansion to greet the Spring Festival.This time she not only brought her own needlework, but also the proceeds and IOUs from Yingchun's little villager.
Looking at the 110 taels silver note in his hand, Yingchun felt more at ease.Pearl is right, it is better to spend the money.Anyway, their husband and wife have not been separated from the mansion yet, and they have their own public house to eat and use. If they don't save some money now, pointing to the little property allocated to them, it may not be enough to even manage the third master to be an official.
A married woman is naturally no longer as pure and innocent as when she was a girl.Yingchun laughed and said, "You can take this money back. If there is a field next to the village that you want to sell, just buy it. I won't wait for the money."
Qiaoyun is naturally willing: she takes care of Zhuangzi for Yingchun, and she doesn't need to do much to keep in touch with the girl, and there are some benefits.Now if the girl wants her to help buy land again, she will believe her.
So Qiaoyun said: "Young lady is right. With the land in my hand, I will have food for a year. It would be good to have more money for cosmetics."
The master and the servants chatted a few more gossips, but Qiaoyun hesitated to speak.Yingchun couldn't help asking: "But what can't be done?"
Qiaoyun took another look at Pearl.Fortunately, she knew that Pearl had made up her mind since she was a child, so it was fine for her to hear about it.He said to Yingchun, "so that the girl will know that two days ago, someone asked my mother about pearls."
Yingchun was puzzled at first: "Why do you ask Pearl, she is only in the mansion, and she has no place to offend anyone." Then she suddenly realized: "Could it be?"
Qiaoyun smiled and nodded: "It's not what the girl thinks. She fell in love with our Pearl girl, but there is no way to marry her. Because I live close to my natal family, I asked about my mother's place. But my mother Which person is on the name of the brand, of course, I only tell people that I can ask for them, and I can't guarantee if it will succeed."
If Qiaoyun had come a few days earlier, and Yingchun hadn't been afraid that the third master would take a fancy to the two dowry girls, Yingchun would have rejected her straight away--Pearl has been giving her advice everywhere these years, how could she let Pearl marry so early.
But now it is different.It's not that Yingchun is selfish and has a fake relationship with Pearl.But as a woman, even sisters are unwilling to share their husbands, and even the love they grew up with will be discounted.Yingchun still remembers the anxiety and anxiety she felt when she waited for the answer from the third master that day.She didn't want such a thing to happen again, and she didn't even want to face the pearl that she grew up with, so she had to be on guard at all times.
"It's actually close to your natal family, so it's okay to come home." Yingchun asked Qiaoyun like this.
Pearl was listening to the two talking about themselves, not as shy as girls nowadays, because her mission is to go out of the house and marry a good citizen, now that Qiaoyun said that she lived close to her natal family, Pearl felt that it was probably true That's Li Sen.
It would be nonsense to say how much Pearl has a crush on Li Sen. To her, it's just someone she knows while walking on the street.But this person Pearl is not disgusting - in this era of blind marriages, it is already rare to meet each other before marriage.
As for Li Sen, judging from his several encounters, he can be regarded as a kind person.It's better to be married to a person who has met and is kind, than to let Yingchun point her out in the future, or someone from the Hua family will exchange her for money again.
So Pearl's reaction was no response, which disappointed Yingchun and Qiaoyun who were secretly observing her.Qiaoyun had no choice but to continue: "It's a coincidence. That family and Zhuzhu's own small house are in the same alley. Not only that, I have seen Zhuzhu, and I have taken a fancy to it at a glance. It's just that Zhuzhu works in the mansion and doesn't often Go back. Besides, you can’t talk to the girl’s family about such things. I don’t know how they found out that my family has a good relationship with Pearl, so they asked my mother.”
Yingchun heard that Pearl also knew her, so she felt relieved.Deep in her heart, it seemed that if Pearl could live a better life, she would feel less guilty.After all, in the eyes of Yingchun, where can life be as rich as that in the Duke's Mansion?And she felt that Zhuzhu had to leave the house to marry because of her own selfishness, so she hoped that Zhuzhu could marry better.
As for why Pearl knew Li Sen instead of his mother, that was out of Yingchun's considerations - she lived in an alley, and her family was small, and there were no rules like the Duke's Mansion, so it was not a big deal to meet her.
Qiao Yun continued to say: "Of course that family's life is good. Not only does it have a shop selling old furniture, I heard that there is also a hundred acres of land in the countryside, and it doesn't just rely on that shop. And their family is also a good family. , not business registration."
Yingchun was even happier. She had read the account books of Zhuangzi and shop under her name. Even if she didn't understand it, she knew that the family with farmland and shop could be regarded as a well-off family with no worries about food and clothing.He is also a decent citizen and will not delay the future of his children and grandchildren. Yingchun thinks it is a good choice.
"Pearl, what do you think?" Yingchun asked Pearl who was still doing needlework calmly.
Pearl raised her head and smiled: "The servant girl belongs to grandma, so if grandma thinks it's right, she can do it. It's just that the servant girl is still a slave, maybe people don't know about it?"
Qiao Yun smiled and said: "This family really knows. Hearing from the Li family, he is willing to redeem Zhenzhu himself."
It was only then that Yingchun remembered that she was only thinking about whether people were worthy of pearls, but forgot that pearls were still slaves.Fortunately, Pearl herself was sober, so she didn't let such a thing go to her head.But when she thought that Pearl might leave her, Yingchun couldn't bear it.
Fortunately, Zhuzhu herself said to Qiaoyun: "It is absolutely impossible. My sister knows that if I let them redeem me, will I be married to their family, or will I buy it? When the time comes, they will sell me. Even grandma can't save me."
Yingchun also nodded: "I don't feel relieved even if someone from the Hua family comes. Why don't I give you the body deed today and keep it for yourself, just don't tell anyone. You can just work in the mansion. When will people I'm going to get married, when will I leave the house again, wouldn't it be good?"
Girl, it makes me happy that you trust me so much, but seeing you like this, why don't I feel at ease.Pearl complained in her heart, and said to Yingchun sternly: "Miss." Even the grandma after the mansion didn't call her: "In this case, the girl can only talk about it in her own room. In the future, the girl will make friends with others. It’s better to hold something in your own hands as a guarantee.”
Qiao Yun also nodded at the side: "Pearl is right, the girl has to listen to her."
Yingchun smiled embarrassingly: "I was wrong. If Zhuzhu took the deed by herself, how can she still be in this mansion?" She is not a slave, but does the work of a slave, how can she be in the husband's house in the future? Based on?
Pearl and Yingchun thought differently: "The girl's dowry seems to be quite a lot, but there are only Zhuangzi and shops that grow hair. So no matter who the girl trusts, she has to take the deed paper herself, and she can't just tell it to her." people's words."
It turned out that what she was worried about was that if Yingchun could give her the body deed today, it would be impossible to guarantee that she would give someone the deed of Zhuangzi and the shop tomorrow without someone saying a few good words.If that's the case, she might as well try to complete the task two years later than waste all her previous efforts.
Qiao Yun also chimed in: "Pearl is right. Even the dowry in my hand is held by myself."
Yingchun found that Zhenzhu was still planning for herself at this time, she was moved and ashamed, she whispered: "Don't worry, if you are so dedicated to me, I will definitely not treat you badly."
Pearl and Qiaoyun both laughed, and it was Qiaoyun who said first: "Why did the girl treat anyone badly? Just say that she was still in the Rongguo Mansion, who wouldn't envy us for being able to serve the girl."
Although Qiaoyun's words were somewhat flattering, they were also true: Yingchun himself was a gentle person, and he didn't even say harsh words to his servants, let alone beat or scold them.Later, with Pearl's help, she had a sympathy with Mrs. Xing, and the other servants didn't dare to disrespect her too much.Once the master has face, life will be easier for the servants who follow him.Therefore, although being Yingchun's girl is not as attractive as being Jia Baoyu's girl, it is not as good as Tanchun's place where Aunt Zhao is often noisy, but it is still a good place.
"Grandma, don't always be too self-effacing." After talking about what she thought was the most important thing, Pearl changed her title again: "Don't say whether this time is successful or not, it's just that it really won't work. Seeing me and Siqi is also one year old and two years old. What's more, Siqi has been appointed by others. The day when he leaves the house is not far away. The girl who will be used again, grandma will at least take out some of the master's money so that she can be the master of the house no."
Siqi just listened to the three of them talking, thinking about his own thoughts.Now after listening to Pearl's words, he said next to him: "I want to follow the girl for the rest of my life. Even in the future, I will still come back to serve the girl. As long as the girl is not like the second master Bao, it is good to dislike me for being a fish-eyed bead. "
These words made Yingchun and the three of them couldn't help laughing: "Which one of the people in this room is going to have to suffer like this. It's the girl and I, two years before you became fish-eyed. Don't you think you're not?"
Siqi also nodded: "If you want me to say, if the girl is not at ease, why not ask sister Qiaoyun's mother to bring the woman from the Li family into the mansion one day, and let the girl take a look for herself. If it is a good match Of course there is no second word, if it is difficult to get along with each other, let them give up as soon as possible, don't always pester sister Qiaoyun's house."
Yingchun said: "This is also possible. It's just that it won't be possible before the new year, I'm afraid it will be after the new year. Besides, the third master Chunwei is approaching, and it is not good for people to come and go in the house."
Siqi said: "Anyway, the third master is going to study in the study in the morning, so I just let them come over in the morning."
Qiao Yun smiled and said: "It can be seen that Pearl is often bullied, and she is in such a hurry to drive Pearl out of the house."
Siqi was not annoyed: "We all grew up together, there is no reason to dislike her. It's just that she is alone in the house now, and there is no one in the family who is willing to plan for her. We all have to start with the girl. Treat her to something."
Looking at the 110 taels silver note in his hand, Yingchun felt more at ease.Pearl is right, it is better to spend the money.Anyway, their husband and wife have not been separated from the mansion yet, and they have their own public house to eat and use.
