Chapter 793: The Storm in the Back House
A good night’s sleep, sore waist and backache.
"The truth is the same..." When Zhu Ping'an got up the next day, he felt the dull pain in his waist and the dark eyes in the mirror, and whispered to himself while rubbing his waist.
Li Shu was sitting in front of the dressing table doing her makeup in front of the mirror. She dipped lipstick from the carved ivory tube in her slender hand. Her pretty face was rosy, and her whole figure was like a peach moistened by the spring rain. She was delicate and delicate. Even before applying gouache, her pretty face was already rosy and tender, as if water would drip out at the slightest touch.
"What are you mumbling about? Do you want to go boating today?"
Hearing Zhu Ping'an's whisper, Li Shu stopped what she was doing and blinked her big watery eyes curiously. Her small cherry mouth was as red as a petal, and her delicate voice was a hundred times more beautiful than the most beautiful song in the world. .
Boating?
You are really talented.
Looking at Li Shu’s cute and ignorant look.
"Why are you looking at me like this... If you want to go boating, you can wait until the afternoon to go boating in Shichahai. My uncle is coming in the morning, so we have to meet him." Li Shu pouted her little mouth and said coquettishly.
"Ahem, let's talk, let's talk."
Zhu Ping'an coughed, laughed, cheered up and put on his clothes.
Brush your teeth and wash your hands.
Although Zhu Pingan misses modern toothbrushes and toothpastes, he has become accustomed to brushing his teeth and rinsing his mouth with pig hair toothbrushes and green salt and poria paste.
Breakfast is still made by Li Shu. It is delicious and loving, and paired with a stack of pickled cucumbers, it makes Zhu Pingan gain three pounds after one meal.
Nowadays, this pickled cucumber has become popular in the Linhuai Marquis Mansion. Of course, it is mainly due to the contribution of the old lady of the Linhuai Marquis Mansion. The old lady of the Linhuai Marquis Mansion eats every meal and uses half a bowl more than before. This makes The old lady's personal maid Zijuan always wanted to thank Zhu Ping'an every time she saw him.
Just like "the king of Chu has such a thin waist, many people in the palace starve to death", the old lady loved to eat, and soon there was such a home-cooked side dish in every room of the Linhuai Marquis Mansion. It is said that the old lady of the Duke of Wei's house next door was influenced by the old lady of the Marquis of Linhuai, and she also fell in love with this pickled cucumber dish. It was perfect for serving with porridge. In recent days, she often sent people to the Huaihou Mansion to ask for it. .
After breakfast, Zhu Pingan went to the study to practice calligraphy as usual, while Li Shu directed the girl to clean up in the living room.
There was some noise in the courtyard, but it soon calmed down. After a while, the little maid Baozi walked in holding an inkstone in her arms.
"What's wrong?" Li Shu glanced at the little maid Baozi and asked.
"It's not like those two little vixens Xi'er and Yan'er. Last time, the old lady wanted to point them out to the young lady as dowry. After the young lady refused, who would have thought that they would not give up. I don't know where I heard about yesterday. My son-in-law is reading in the courtyard, and I want to see him by sending him pen and ink. Thanks to my uncle. Not in the courtyard, otherwise we would have been succeeded by these two shameless vixens. Miss, you haven't seen how shameless they are. Their clothes are thin, transparent and low, and their chests are almost exposed." Little maid Baozi. He was so angry that his little mouth was pouting so much that it could be tied to a petrol bottle, so he leaned close to Li Shu and whispered in his ear.
Hearing this, Li Shu's eyes were calm. She stretched out her slender hand through the handkerchief and picked up the inkstone from the little maid Baozi's hand. She lifted it to the height of her forehead, pointed it at the marble paved on the ground, and then let go of her little hand.
"Pa"
With a sound, the inkstone fell on the marble and broke into two halves.
"Qin'er, take Mother Li, Mother Wang, Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Zhang, take these two halves of the inkstone, and ask Xi'er and Yan'er if they gave this broken in half. What is the purpose of coming over the inkstone? If she If they admit it, go and ask grandma to see her and ask her for justice; if they don’t admit it, let Mother Li and the others slap her until they admit it, and then go and ask her to see her and ask her for justice.”
Li Shu glanced at Qin'er with a pair of spiritual eyes, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, opened her lips slightly, spoke softly, and spoke like beads.
"Don't worry, miss." Qin'er picked up the inkstone on the ground and walked out.
"Huh? Oh," the little maid Baozi was stunned for a moment, but she hadn't reacted yet. The inkstone sent by Xi'er and Yan'er was good, but she broke it in half. It took him a second to react, and then he nodded his head vigorously.
Those two little vixens were the first to seduce my uncle. They should be taught a lesson. What is the crime of breaking the master's inkstone? It seems that they should be punished as girls who sweep the floor and do laundry. Hum, they deserve it. Who made them want to seduce their uncle?
Outside Tingyuxuan.
"Bah, look at the group of little prodigals in Ting Yuxuan. They are incompetent and can't fly on the branches. They don't like us anymore."
"It's like they are just looking out for thieves."
Xi'er and Yan'er looked very unhappy and spat in the direction of Ting Yuxuan as they walked.
"But Xi'er, I heard that the fifth uncle is very serious and not as lustful as Master Zhou. If Master Zhou is like a cat that hasn't seen Xing'er for several days, I will seduce him. You can get hooked by hooking your little finger, but Fifth Uncle is too serious." Yan'er came close to Xi'er and whispered in her ear.
"Giggle, serious, would a serious person take off his clothes in public?" Xi'er giggled.
"Ah? Are you talking about the fifth uncle?" Yan'er was surprised.
"Who is the fifth uncle? Haven't you heard? The day before yesterday, when the fifth uncle was on errands, he took off his clothes completely naked in front of many people. At first glance, he was not ashamed or ashamed. . And my silly sister, you haven’t seen her, but I heard about the fifth uncle’s thing.” Xi’er blushed and leaned towards Yan’er’s ear, speaking in a low voice while making gestures with her hands.
"What? It's true or false, how could it be like that?" Yan'er's eyes widened, and her heart seemed to be hopping like a deer.
“Of course it’s true. If you can climb into the bed of the fifth uncle, you will have endless blessings in the future. You will be popular, drink spicy food, giggle, and the fifth uncle is already in the sixth grade at a young age. I heard that this time I have done a big job, and I have shown my face in front of the emperor, and my future is boundless." Xi'er started to look forward to it.
Yan'er was also filled with admiration, "However, I also heard that the red note beside Miss Six was once"
"How can that young girl from Hongjian not have the means we have?" Xi'er curled her lips after hearing this, and then became filled with resentment, "Huh, it's all the fault of the Fifth Miss. The old lady obviously pointed us out to be her dowry. , but she pushed her away, otherwise it would be so troublesome."
"Just wait until later, hum." Yan'er agreed.
"We must be good sisters from now on. Miss Fifth is not easy to get along with." Xi'er looked at Yan'er and said.
"Of course." Yan'er nodded vigorously, and the two looked at each other and smiled. (End of this chapter)
