When Li married to Ren's family, there was only Mother Zhou beside him.
Although there was no shortage of people around King Xian, in the environment where soldiers were in his neck at the time, the only person who was suitable to follow the Li family to the house was Mother Zhou, who had served the Princess Xian. Today, none of the people who are serving with Li's mother are from serious maids and maids.
Fortunately, none of the old people in Xianwang's Mansion who can follow Yanbei are embroidered pillows, and Mother Zhou can be regarded as a figure who counts one as ten. Only from the maids she has taught Li over the years, she knows that it doesn't matter if you don't have a confidant to marry you, because Mother Zhou has the ability to make things out of nothing.
That's why Li would trust the person chosen by Mother Zhou so much. Even Ren Yaoqi didn't doubt Mother Zhou's ability to pick people.
The mother Xu, who bowed her head and hands and stood in front of Ren Yaoqi, was the one she respected very much. And her method, today Ren Yaoqi has further learned.
Ren Yaoqi slowly stretched out his hand, pulled out a butterfly love flower-like golden hairpin from his hair bun, and gently fiddled with the medicine residue on the Kang table until he found the kind of medicinal material he expected, Ren Yao Period's hand stopped.
"Where did it come from?" Ren Yaoqi asked with a smile looking at Mother Xu.
Mother Xu did not look up: "These filth in the mansion will be cleaned out every day..."
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words, and glanced at Mother Xu: "Did you find it where you dumped the filth?"
Mother Xu hurriedly said: "When the slave and maid came, they had already taken a bath and changed their clothes." After thinking about it, she explained, "The filth that goes out of our house, they will put it aside, wait a minute. We will deal with it after picking."
Baihe Town has a special place to deal with these daily filths, and even some discarded things that are transported out of the homes of large families like the Ren family will be selected by people to see if they can find out what can be exchanged for money. After all, for the poor people, the things that flowed out of the teeth of the rich are good things for everyone, so many people rely on digging through them for a living.
Although he had never been to such a place, Ren Yaoqi could know how hard it took Mother Xu to find this medicine dregs from so many filth of Ren's family only by imagination.
Ren Yaoqi looked at Mother Xu, who had cleaned up and restored herself to a neat and tidy suit, and was speechless for a while.
Seeing Ren Yaoqi not speaking, Madam Xu said with some caution: "Miss, maidservant... the maidservant accidentally heard what you and Maternal Zhou said yesterday. Although in the end, your lord did not pursue the maidservant a lot. It’s wrong, the servant is still uneasy."
Mother Xu glanced at Ren Yaoqi, and saw that Ren Yaoqi was just looking at herself and not talking. She was a little confused about this seemingly gentle and talkative little master. She paused and continued: "The servant girl heard you want After looking for the medicine dregs for Miss Eighth, I went to find it on my own terms. I also asked the lady not to blame the slaves and maidservants for doing so."
When Ren Yaoqi and Mother Zhou spoke yesterday, she was not sure how much Mother Xu heard. It stands to reason that it is best for her to pretend to be discovered by Mother Zhou as soon as she comes in. Otherwise, she may be eavesdropping on how to say it, which will make the master unhappy.
So to say that Mother Xu did this today is actually very risky.
Mother Xu at this time was indeed a little disturbed.
She is not a stupid person, so how can she not know that if she does this accidentally, she will offend the master? So she is betting.
Mother Xu has been in the mansion for a while, and she feels that Ren Yaoqi's temperament is very gentle and is a good waiter. But it would be a big mistake to think that this little master is a foolish master because of this.
On the contrary, after careful observation, Mother Xu concluded that Ren Yaoqi was a very thoughtful person. This can be seen in the attitude of Mother Zhou, the manager of the Ziwei Academy, towards her.
But she also felt it. Although Ren Yaoqi had a very good attitude towards her, he also handed over everything in the house to her on the surface. She never kept her beak when she was dealing with the maid and the house, but she always felt that she was reluctant. Yaoqi didn't really trust her.
Before she entered the mansion, Mother Zhou used a lot of tricks on her, but she knew it well but also cooperated seriously. Because she felt that Mother Zhou or the third wife was looking for her confidant.
Although the first half of Mother Xu's life was not so good due to general reasons, she is a smart and somewhat ambitious person. She can join the family mansion to assist the young lady and follow her to her husband's house in the future. This is for her. A rare opportunity, she wants to seize this opportunity that may be the only chance in her life.
In the end, Mother Xu really stood out from a bunch of candidate women with her hard work and intelligence. Originally she was going to serve the third lady, but was later asked by the fifth lady. In all fairness, from the beginning, Mother Xu was more optimistic about Ren Yaohua than she was about Ren Yaoqi, so she said in her heart that she was not disappointed when she changed her master. However, this disappointment was soon suppressed by herself. She understood that she could not decide on some things, but she could still fight for the future.
Now facing the ambiguous attitude of the little master, Mother Xu feels that it is worth taking a risk. She saw that with the current situation of Ziwei Academy, Ren Yaoqi really needed a capable confidant. She didn't choose to pretend to be foolish, and directly prove her ability to the master.
Although Ren Yaoqi didn't speak, the change in Mother Xu's expression was always seen by her. Including the determination to fight hard in her eyes and the desire to identify with.
Ren Yaoqi can already judge this time. Mother Xu, who is standing in front of her now, is just an ambitious ordinary mother who only wants to express herself in front of her master and hopes to be reused. She is not someone sent by any force, at least not for now.
As for whether Mother Xu will be bought by others in the future, it is difficult to say whether she will revert to battle. After all, many times, things like ambition will not only become the driving force for people to make progress, but also the fuse that leads people to detours.
During this short period of silence, the minds of the master and servant both changed a few times.
Just when Mother Xu's anxiety gradually became greater than her certainty, Ren Yaoqi finally spoke.
"Fortunately, Mother has run this time."
Seeing Ren Yaoqi talking, I don’t know why Mother Xu felt relieved and hurriedly said:
To share worries for the master, this is what slaves and maids should do.
Taking a look at Ren Yaoqi, Mother Xu still tentatively asked. Said, "Miss, what's your next plan? If there is a place that needs a servant, please ask the lady to speak."
With the golden hairpin in his hand, Ren Yaoqi picked up the four corners of the coarse cloth on the Kang table, and covered up the medicine slag: "There is no need to do anything for the time being, you can take it out and deal with it."
Mother Xu hurriedly came forward and took the bag of medicine dregs back.
Ren Yaoqi watched Mother Xu's actions and suddenly said, "Mother Xu, I will punish you for three months. Do you have any comments?"
Madam Xu was startled at first when she heard the words, but when the recollection came, her face was filled with joy that could not be concealed: "The maidservant has no objection, the maidservant thank you Miss."
Yesterday, she heard the master talking with Mother Zhou. Although she did not deliberately eavesdropped on it, it was a ghost who did not immediately withdraw, and quietly found what the master wanted.
Ren Yaoqi remained silent from yesterday to today, and did not intend to attack her, but it made her feel very disturbed. Because this shows that Ren Yaoqi didn't regard her as his own person, and such a light-hearted attitude is actually a kind of defense.
Now after she did this on her own initiative, Ren Yaoqi not only failed to reward her but also punished her. This not only didn't make her feel confused, but instead made her feel that the master would value her in the future.
Because only dispensable abandoned children need to be comforted, and those who are available need to be beaten at the right time.
So Mother Xu was relieved.
Waiting for Mother Xu to retreat with a tired look, Ren Yaoqi put her hand on her cheek, leaned on the Kang table for a while, and finally smiled.
"The Lin family is here. This time the Lin family came here in person. The old lady asked his wife and several young ladies to come over to see people." The Li sent Xi'er over and said to Ren Yaoqi.
Mrs. Lin's family is the fifth wife's mother. This time she came to Ren's family for Ren Yaoyu's business.
Ren Yaoqi changed his clothes to meet guests and went to Ronghua Yuan with Li and Ren Yaohua.
It is not the first time that Ren Yaoqi has seen Mrs. Lin Da. The Lin family and the Ren family are close to each other. They always have contacts during the New Year and New Years. Whenever there is a happy event, they will move around.
By all accounts, Mrs. Lin Da and Mrs. Ren belonged to the same generation, but she was much younger than Mrs. Ren, and her appearance was similar to that of the Lin family, but she was more rounded. Ren Yaoyu looks more like her, no wonder Mrs. Lin Da has always loved Ren Yaoyu, his granddaughter.
When Ren Yaoqi passed, the eldest wife and Ren Yaoting were already there.
Seeing that Li came with the two sisters of Ren Yaoqi, Mrs. Lin stopped talking and watched Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua smiling cordially and jokingly said: "Oh, these two sisters are really the same every year. The third wife is really blessed."
Mrs. Lin is now the head wife of the Lin family, but she and Mrs. Ren are a bit more intimate and less arrogant. She always smiles when she sees people, and she is familiar with everyone. Those wives in Yunyang City are very popular among them.
Li took Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua to ask her for peace. She held the two sisters one by one, and when the two sisters got up, she still held their hands, like she liked: "I always say that the girls coming out of the Ren family are very rare, unlike the skin monkeys of our Lin family, who are just like the boys."
Everyone loves to listen to good things, and the old lady Ren looked better, and Li said a few words humbly.
Mrs. Lin asked the sisters a lot before asking them to sit down.
Ren Yaoqi listened to Mrs. Lin Da and Mrs. Ren making a family routine. From the relationship between Li and Zhang's family, the price of old ginseng from Guandong after the beginning of the spring increased by 20%. Her words are funny and her voice is crisp, and an ordinary thing is always a little more interesting from her mouth, and the re-elected old lady can't help but listen.
All in all, Mrs. Lin Da is a very talkative person. However, she talked about some recent interesting things in Yunyang City, and never mentioned her daughter or granddaughter. It seems that when she comes to Ren's house this time, she is really here to stop by.
After three cups of tea in the end, the atmosphere in the room was harmonious and the old lady was also smiling, and Mrs. Lin Da mentioned the purpose of coming today.
"I know the temperament of my girl, and thanks to her marrying Ren's family, if she marries another person... Hey! In-law, I really can't help you all these years!"
When she opened her mouth, she confessed her mistake, and the old lady's tone softened, and she had to speak to Lin: "The fifth wife I grew up looking at, she is like my own daughter. She is only straightforward, saying she is bad. I don’t believe it."
Mrs. Lin sighed and grateful upon hearing this: "In-law, I'm embarrassed."
I have to say that Mrs. Lin Da is a master at adjusting the atmosphere of the conversation, and the atmosphere is still harmonious on both sides. Instead of waiting for Mrs. Lin Da to speak, Mrs. Ren agreed to let her visit Lin and Ren Yaoyu.
But Mrs. Lin smiled and said: "Just let Huijun have it. It's better for her to be cold-hearted and let her learn some lessons. I think the punishment from my mother-in-law is not too light. I will go over and take a look at Yuer. I'll go back and talk to the old lady."
Since Mrs. Lin rushed over after receiving the news, she naturally knew that Master Lin Wu was guarding Mrs. Lin Wu. She is a smart person, so naturally she will not bother the young couple at this time. But she was really worried about her granddaughter, she wanted to see and ask questions.
Old lady Ren nodded and explained to Mrs. Ren Da, "You accompany your mother-in-law to see Yu'er."
Mrs. Lin said in a hurry, "The eldest lady is busy, where do you need her to accompany you." He glanced at some of the girls in the Ren family and said with a smile, "Why don't your mother send a girl to accompany me? Just look at it and like it, don't let it go."
Old lady Ren laughed and glanced at several granddaughters: "Then Huaer and Qier will accompany you?"
Mrs. Lin said joyfully: "It's good to dare to love."
So Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua went out with Mrs. Lin.
It was another sunny day today, and the sun was soft enough, Ren Yaohua took a few people to the shade.
The Ren family is not better than the old family like the Yunjiaqiu family, and the foundation is still shallow.
Ren Yaoqi is not unfamiliar with this place. After she and Ren Yijun made a riot in the ancestral hall in the previous life, that scene often appeared in her dreams. Ren Yaoqi thought that it might be that her hatred for the Ren family was too deep but she had nowhere to vent. The moment she smashed the tablet was the most reckless and joyous time she spent in the Ren family for so many years.
Mrs. Lin Da took the two sisters to talk all the way, very kind, and she talked a lot but had the ability to make people unpleasant.
When the Liangjin yard facing the north and the south appeared in the sight of everyone, Mrs. Lin suddenly smiled and said, "By the way, your sisters will also go to Yunyang City to see the dragon boat this year?"
Ren Yaohua nodded: "Well, we will go with my grandmother."
Mrs. Lin Da smiled and said: "I heard yesterday that your maternal grandfather's family also received an invitation letter, or a post from the Prince Li's Mansion."
Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoqi couldn't help being slightly stunned.
The Xianwang family is a very special existence in Yanbei, and its status is more noble than any aristocratic family. However, the Xianwang family is always ignored in various social occasions in Yunyang City.
Most of the time, they will not be remembered.
Xian Wang has been to Yanbei for more than ten years, but he has never participated in the dragon boat stop in Yunyang City. This year, I received the invitation from the Yanbei Palace. It is no wonder that Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua would think so much when they heard the news.
But after Mrs. Lin said the news came out, she turned to other topics, or Ren Yaohua couldn't help but ask: "Why does the Yanbei Prince's Mansion post to my grandfather's family? Didn't it happen every year?"
Mrs. Lin laughed at the words, and she did not blame Ren Yaohua for interrupting her. She said with a good temper: "I heard that Princess Yanbei happened to meet your grandmother when she was out a few days ago. The two chatted a few words. At that time, the princess also said. Now, I randomly asked if your grandmother would go to watch this year's dragon boat race. After that, Princess Yanbei would send a post after she returned."
Speaking, Mrs. Lin glanced at Ren Yaoqi, and said with some meaningful smile: "Although the princess rarely returns to Yunyang City, after all, the princess only has such a daughter. It is natural to spoil her."
The every move of the Yanbei Palace has always been the focus of the people's attention, so the people in Yunyang City also knew about the princess who came to Baihe Town to find Miss Ren Jiawu to travel with. Mrs. Lin Da also thought that Ren Yaoqi had a good relationship with the princess, so the princess deliberately mentioned that when she met Princess Xian. Since the princess had already mentioned the person, Princess Yanbei had to send the post.
Ren Yaohua was happy. She felt that it was a good thing for her grandparents to integrate into the circle of Yunyang City.
However, Ren Yaoqi thought more.
What she thought was that Xianwang's family received the Dragon Boat Stop's post only because the princess had no intention of saying something?
I don’t know why, a face that always looked like someone with a fairy aura suddenly appeared in front of her. From the appearance to the posture, it was so perfect that there was no flaw. Taishan was overwhelmed, and the sword and the body could not change him. Cents.
Any word that expresses goodness in this world can be used on him, but such a person is always less popular, and he is more suitable to be offered on the altar.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but vomit in his heart.
Because this person was too hard to guess, Ren Yaoqi was not sure whether this matter had anything to do with him, and what his purpose was for him.
Contrary to Ren Yaohua, Ren Yaoqi didn't want to see King Xian's Mansion being pulled out and implicated by all parties when the situation was unclear. Compared with the aristocratic circle of Yanbei, Ren Yaoqi would rather offer the palace to be forgotten by everyone.
If the Royal Palace Xian jumped up and down in Yanbei, and walked too close to the aristocrats, some people in the court would not be able to sleep.
The foundation of the Ren family's ancestral hall was much higher than other courtyards, and the entrance had to go up a dozen steps. The ancestral hall is divided into two courtyards, the front courtyard is not much different from the ordinary courtyard, and both men and women can enter. The backyard is only open on New Year's Day, and only the males of the Ren family are eligible to enter.
The place Ren Yaoyu thought about behind closed doors was the West Chamber of the front yard, where was a small Buddhist hall.
Several people went up the steps, and the maid went forward to gently push the closed door open, and a vast bluestone courtyard appeared in front of everyone.
This ancestral hall did not exist in the old house, but was rebuilt by Bao Ming, the former head of the family, after the Ren family moved in. It is much newer than the other buildings in the Ren family. I heard that the site selection is also very particular.
The main building on the north side of the front yard is a five-winged, hanging mountain-like roof, which is closed at this time. The entire courtyard was cold and gentle, and no one was seen at first glance.
Ren Yaoqi heard Mrs. Lin Da's sigh, turned around and saw her red eyes.
"The eighth sister is here in the West Chamber. Does the eldest wife want us to accompany us in?" Ren Yaohua asked, pointing to the West Chamber.
When Mrs. Lin Da came to see Ren Yaoyu, she would definitely have something to say in private. Ren Yaohua had a good impression of Mrs. Lin Da, so she just sold her as a favor and didn't follow her.
Mrs. Lin said busy: "I'll go in by myself, your sisters..."
Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, "Let's sit in the East Chamber for a while, and let people call us when you come out."
Mrs. Lin thanked the two of them and went to the West Chamber.
Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua walked to the East Chamber. At this time, the women who were staying in the ancestral hall welcomed them out of the corner room on the side of the West Chamber.
Ren Yaohua didn't need them to wait, and sent them away, only letting them open the door of the East Chamber.
Few people come to the front yard of the ancestral hall on weekdays. The east wing is a hall with only tables and chairs inside. Standing at the door, Ren Yaoqi seemed to smell the damp and rotten atmosphere inside, which she didn't like.
"Let's wait outside." Ren Yaoqi said to Ren Yaohua.
Ren Yaohua didn't care, as people could sit down the corridor.
So the two sat on the corridor and waited for Mrs. Lin to come out.
The two sisters had nothing to do with each other. Ren Yaohua asked Ren Yaoqi: "Did you and the princess mention this year's dragon boat race?" Ren Yaohua asked about the invitation to Xian Wangfu.
Ren Yaoqi shook his head: "I haven't mentioned it."
Ren Yaohua couldn't help thinking.
Ren Yaoqi didn't have a clue about this matter for the time being, and didn't talk about it anymore.
At this time, crying came from the West Chamber, and it was Ren Yaoyu's. There was a large courtyard between the east and west compartments, and Ren Yaoyu's cry came out clearly, heartbreaking.
The two sisters glanced towards the West Wing, and Gu Shi was speechless.
Mrs. Lin Da stayed in the West Wing for about half an hour before coming out. When Ren Yaoqi saw her, she found that her eyes were a little bit redder than when she went in. Although her face was calm, she still couldn't hide her worry. .
Compared with the grandmother of Mrs. Ren, Mrs. Lin has a deeper feeling for Ren Yaoyu's granddaughter.
Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua didn't ask too much, they only led Mrs. Lin Da out.
On the way back, Mrs. Lin's words were obviously less.
After returning to Ronghuayuan, Mrs. Lin Da asked Mrs. Ren to say that she would go to Liuliyuan. But Mrs. Lin Da is not going to visit her daughter Lin, she is going to see Auntie Kang.
Mrs. Ren also agreed. This time Mrs. Ren accompanied her. After all, it was not convenient for Auntie Kang Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua to go there. RS
