There is no maritime climate regulation. In November, the capital city is extremely cold. Fang's mother burned the earth dragon after lunch. At night, Minglan and grandmother slept together in a warm pavilion. The warmth is warm enough, but dry. Very, Minglan was not used to it. She woke up and drank several sips of tea one night, but her mouth was still dry. After waking up the next day, she was dizzy and listened to her mother.
The capital city is the first good place. The local emperor is near, and the occupant of the censor knows that the saliva system is well-developed. Sheng Hong is very vigilant and gave the best row of houses in the mansion to the old lady Sheng, also called Shou'antang. It was the main house where I lived with Wang. Aunt Lin's Lin Qi Pavilion was still close to the west, next to Changfeng's small courtyard, and Chang Bai was in a courtyard alone, preparing to build a new house.
Beijing Shengfu is not as spacious as Dengzhou, and the three orchids can’t live there, so a large empty courtyard is created. The three rows of wing rooms are slightly separated by fences and screen walls, and then they are covered in front and back. The room and the holding mansion are for the maids and women, so they are also good semi-independent courtyards. The name of Hualan was implied in Wei Lianxuan. Mo Lan and Rulan didn’t like this name for a long time. This time they quickly named their own courtyard. Mo Lan’s name is Shanyueju, Rulan’s name is Tao Ran. Pavilion, Minglan is still the same.
Ming Lan was confused, Cui Wei and Dan Ju both remembered, one was carrying the luggage from Shou’an Tang into Mu Cang Zhai, and the other instructed the little maid and the maid’s wife to move, carry, wash and wash. Shabu, it took a full morning, the old lady Sheng was not relieved, so she took Minglan to see it in person, Wang was accompanied by her, feeling a little nervous, and relieved when she saw the old lady nodding.
The Beijing version of Mu Cangzhai has only three big houses, the main room in the middle, and the two leaves between the left and right. Minglan likes to have a private space, and the bedroom is specially partitioned, and the right side is divided into a study room with Baibao Pavilion and curtains. , Dan Ju and Xiao Tao personally opened the cages one by one, wiped out the books and furnishings one by one, and placed them according to Minglan's intention.
Before Minglan finished cleaning up the house, Rulan came to stop by. For the first time in Beijing, with Rulan's temperament, how could I make friends so quickly? I was tired of arguing with Molan all day long. , She has to talk to Minglan if she saves her stomach. After Danju made a bowl of hot Maojian, Rulan couldn't wait to pull Minglan into the back room.
"Sixth Sister, do you think the Fourth Sister is very upset this time?" Before the greeting, Rulan couldn't wait to point out the central idea.
Minglan settled down, thought about it, hesitated, and said: "It's okay, I think the fourth sister is a little worried. At noon, she came to my room and looked around, but she didn't say anything. Just say a few words and leave." This is very strange, Mo Lan is a face-saving man, no matter what she thinks in her stomach, her face is always kind, and she has to make up a few words if she has nothing to do.
Rulan's expression of ‘sure as I expected’, mysteriously lowered her voice and said: "You are not here for a while, the fourth elder sister got a big mess at the Pingning County Lord."
Theoretically speaking, except for the prince and the prince who are too young, the rest of the princes are all going to the feudal clan, the favored ones go to the rich and the lesser places, the colder ones go to the remote areas, but now the situation is weird and the prince is late Too late, the three and four princes all stayed with the emperor's acquiescence, and the sixth prince's position was not high or low, and a county king was sealed, and the domain was in the beam.
Last year, when the emperor passed his 60th birthday, the six princes brought three neat cubs with him when he came to celebrate his birthday. The three princes who could not give birth to a son almost looked red, especially the little one. Four or five years old, she was white and fat, simple and cute, the three princes looked more and more like them, the six princes were deeply affectionate, and the six princesses were empathetic, so they took the little cub to show to the third brother from time to time.
"Oh, I understand. When I was in Jinling, I heard that the third prince intends to adopt a nephew. Could it be the sixth prince's family?" Minglan suddenly realized, and then confused again, "Huh? But this is with the fourth sister. What's the matter? This is a royal business, where shall we put in the mouth?"
Rulan shook her head triumphantly: "The Sixth Prince's family also has a maid of the county lord of the year. Recently, the birthday of the Holy Father is approaching, and the Sixth Princess came to Beijing with her son and daughter."
Ming Lan used his brain for a while, and tentatively asked: "Could it be that they have a deep friendship with the county lord of Pinning."
Rulan patted Minglan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Sixth sister is really smart.... That day, the host of Pingning County had a banquet, and my mother took us there. The fourth sister was very courteous to the host. She was flattering and flattering, and the flattery was also blatant. Who knew the princess slapped her, but didn’t pay much attention to it. She only kept talking to the six princesses and daughters. When she came back, the lady told the master that she called the master good. After a while, I was fined for half a month, haha..."
"This, this is a bit embarrassing." Minglan could imagine the scene and felt embarrassed. It's no wonder that Sheng Hong seemed to be quite harsh on Mo Lan this time.
Now that the old emperor is getting aging, the third prince is just right because he is missing a son. The Sixth prince immediately became hot. The county lord of Pingning wanted to heat the stove, so he fell in love with the county lord of Jiacheng as a daughter-in-law, carefully Think about it, the family background of Mo Lan and the county lord is really not comparable.
Rulan is very happy, I wanted to find someone to have fun with, but I didn't expect Minglan to not join in, but still looked sad, and frowned: "What's the matter with you? Don't say you are sorry for the fourth sister!"
Minglan smiled bitterly: "Fifth Sister, I’m saddened by us. Even though it’s Fourth Sister who will be ashamed of this time, our sisters can’t escape. Speaking of outside, the Sheng family’s daughter is always poorly raised. "
Rulan's heart shook, and I went through it twice. The secret path was right. No wonder the ladies at the tea party and poetry party didn't pay much attention to her during these days. There was still a faint sarcasm in her words. She thought it was for the ink. Lan went alone, but I didn't expect... dare to love her because she was tired! Rulan was immediately furious: "This, this little--!"
If you want to scold you, you can’t scold. Rulan blushed when she was born. Minglan hurried to persuade: "Speak down, let alone some of them, we can live near now, be careful to be heard!"
Rulan patted the table vigorously and spit out: "It's okay, she just went to Lin Qige, huh! She will go back and forth over there, I'm afraid she can do the same thing again!"
Ming Lan looked distressedly, shaking off the shattered bowl on the floor, it was a complete set.
In Lin Qige, a cloud-bat pattern gilt furnace was burning on the kang table. Aunt Lin looked at the gloomy daughter in front of her, gathered the squirrel-skin hand cage, and frowned: "But I was trained by the master once, you Why do you put on this face?"
Mo Lan fiddled with a brocade sachet of Fu Lu Shou and glanced at Aunt Lin: "The first time I was punished like this, I would be ashamed to lose! If it weren't for the old ladies and them to come back this time, I'm afraid I will pay Can’t come out yet."
Aunt Lin sighed and said: "I'm not good at it! I have no abilities, I can only cry but don't know how to calculate, let it go, I have a life, you don't have this ability, just look back and find an ordinary person with you Up!"
Molan's pink face turned red, and her heart was unwilling to say: "The county lord's personality and appearance are just average, so I feel sorry for Brother Yuan Ruo."
Aunt Lin was also dull for a long time, before she said: "People live better than you, this is better than anything! Don't worry about Qi Heng. I asked your third brother to go outside to inquire, and the same is true of Pingning County Lord A power eye, watching that the Sixth Prince's family is gaining power, and rushing to fawn! Forget it, let’s not say...Hey, I told you to see Minglan’s girl, did you see it?"
Mo Lan looked up and said: "The furnishings are still clean, exquisite decorations, precious objects, but there are so few, carried in and out of many cages, I can't see anything. Come; mother, the old lady loves Minglan, it's useless no matter how we fight, why bother?"
Aunt Lin slapped a palm on the Kang table, staring and scolded: "Say you are not promising, you are really not promising! If you shouldn't show up, you want to show up, but you should ignore what you are fighting for! This When Tang Minglan returned to your hometown in Youyang, she didn’t know how to please her. Your uncle and family liked her, so did you. At the beginning, you told you to coax Pinlan, but you thought she was vulgar! This is good, see. When Lan Dabao came back, you are not angry? You are born like her. Speaking of which, her mother is just a village girl. Your mother comes from an official family. You have a brother to support you. You should be ten times stronger than her. Yes, it’s not as good now!"
Mo Lan turned his head fiercely, and hummed angrily: "The old lady is a bad temper. She doesn't like me, what can I do?"
After Aunt Lin's anger passed, she calmed down and said slowly to the lingering cigarettes: "Look at the old lady's appearance. I'm afraid that even Minglan's marriage will be settled. Mrs. Rulan has long planned. Mr. Wang’s uncle came back to Beijing as a foreigner, and I’m afraid I’m about to talk about it. My son, you are the only one who is still floating."
Mo Lan couldn’t help feeling worried, and looked at her mother in anxious manner. Aunt Lin turned her head and smiled at her, saying, “If you only find an ordinary scholar or official’s son, it doesn’t matter whether you are the master or your brother. I have a lot of knowledge, but I have to have character, and I need a wealthy family. It’s difficult!...I don’t know who the old lady is looking for for Minglan?"
Ming Lan looked at the old woman who was crying in front of her, she was ignorant, and went to see her mother in a daze. The old woman was dressed as a servant girl, with a dark red fine-grained silk jacket and a black velvet over her head. A, she took Minglan's hand and cried: "...Girl, Aunt Wei went early, and the old woman was useless. At that time, she suddenly fell ill and couldn't take care of the girl!..."
Minglan can't keep up with the situation and can only be in a daze.
Mama Fang coughed and said, "Mother Cui is getting old, and her son and wife are going to take the old man back to provide for the elderly. There is no mother beside the girl who is not good, so the wife found You Mama from the Zhuangzi. It’s better to take care of the girl’s tits."
Ming Lan nodded. In fact, she had no impression of this mother You, she just remembered listening to the corner of the maids when she was pretending to be stupid, and vaguely remembered that they said, Aunt Wei is cowardly and honest, and there is only one called Die'er beside her. Faithful, the rest are greedy and deceiving the Lord, and when something happens, they all find their way out and run away. Then this mother You...?
After everyone left the screen, Mom Fang said honestly: "Originally, the old lady planned to pick a trustworthy one by herself, but the wife sent it all and it was not easy to hit her in the face."
Minglan thought for a while, and then asked: "Since she is already in the Zhuangzi, what way did she go to get into the inner house?"
Miss’s nanny is a beautiful lady, she has a lot of money, she can sit on the same level as the maid in charge, and can drink the little maids at the bottom. At the beginning, she probably was afraid of implicating the death of Aunt Wei, so she wiped her feet. , And now it's coming again.
When Mama Fang saw that Minglan could ask this sentence, she let her heart down first, and said in a low voice, "The girl is interested. I heard that she wanted to come up a few years ago, but the girl was already there. Mama Cui, this time I heard that I used Yinzi and his wife to follow her predecessors."
Minglan asked again: "Is there no one to follow?"
Mother Fang shook her head: "If there is, the old lady will never allow it. Because she was originally a girl's tits, now it is logical to top her up. I have inquired about it carefully, that is, the recommending wife received some Good; I'm afraid because it's the mother of the milk girl. If there is a lazy messenger, the girl will not be able to put down her face to suppress her."
Ming Lan picked up the corner of her mouth slightly, and smiled: "Don't worry, mom, I'm so old, it's not easy to be protected by the old lady for a lifetime." He smiled again, and said helplessly, "If you really resist I can’t help it, let’s move in to rescue soldiers."
After Fang's mother left, Minglan sat alone on the concubine Xiang's couch in the main room, lowered her head and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Please, mother You."
Xiao Tao went away. As soon as Mother You came in, she burst into tears again. She whispered about how helpless she was when she left and how much she missed Ming Lan in Zhuangzi. Ming Lan listened with a smile and motioned to Xiao Tao to give Bring the tart.
Mama You is not very old, she is just a middle-aged woman with a diamond-shaped face and a wide mouth. She looks shrewd and smart. When she left, Minglan was only five years old, but now Minglan is almost thirteen. I kept mentioning Ming Lan’s childhood fun and her hard feeding. Ming Lan listened quietly, and when her words came to an end, she said leisurely: "I’m afraid I don’t remember much."
Mama You was taken aback. The memory card was the only big card in her hand. She quickly wiped away her tears and said hurriedly: "The girl was small at that time, but she was very clever and smart. She can teach everything and forget everything. Up."
Ming Lan took the tea bowl handed over by Dan Ju, gently moved the lid, and whispered: "After Aunt Wei passed away, I fell into a serious illness. I was in a coma for many days. I woke up with a lot of things. I'm confused. It's a pity that my mother wasn't there at that time, otherwise I could be faster."
Mama You had a slightly embarrassed look on her face, and she said with a dry smile: "It's all the old lady who is not up to date, but she fell ill at that time." She wanted to say a few words about Aunt Wei, but the lady in charge had reminded me. I dare not say.
Ming Lan sighed lightly, slightly sad: "That period was really difficult, taking medicine every day, lingering on the bed, but there was no caring person to take care of, only this stupid little peach was by her side for several times. The doctors said that it’s not good to be afraid. Fortunately, the wife took good care of it, and the old lady took pity, and I took back this little life."
Mother You's face turned blue and red, she squeezed the veil in her hand, and said a few scenes in a whisper, even she felt pale and weak.
Ming Lan closed the bowl, and Yan said with a smile: "It's okay now. These big girls in my room are all trained by the old lady and wife. They are the most sensible and capable. Now, with my mother, My small courtyard is appropriate."
Mama You was startled, she couldn't help but look up, looking at Ming Lan's long and soft eyeliner, the soft and subtle curve of the jaw resembled the young aunt who died young many years ago, but her expression was completely different, no matter what she said. What, the pair of long, slightly curled eyelashes are not moving, like quiet butterfly wings, only the beautiful face smiles as quiet as water.
The simple and elegant girl in front of me shows a kind of calmness, a kind of carefreeness of a high-ranking person. Yoyo's mother was a little lost, and she felt that she couldn't match the impression of the timid and timid girl behind her in memory , A wave of nameless awe slowly climbed up her spine.
Ming Lan fixedly looked at Mother You: If she is smart enough, she should not cause trouble to herself, get a salary, get the whole set of benefits, be less greedy and delusional, do your job well, so everyone can get together and relax. .
