Eldest daughter

Chapter 438 The Eve of the Disaster
Wang Yuan'er lost his composure and cried bitterly for no reason, the waiters around him more or less knew about it, although they didn't know the inside story, they didn't dare to walk around casually, laughing loudly, for fear of touching the master's brow, they even went into Wang Yuan'er's room and almost died Tiptoe to walk.

However, Wang Yuaner's bad mood that they had expected did not appear. Instead, she was refreshed and picked up jewelry in the dressing box with great interest. Seeing them coming in, she waved happily.

"You are all here, hurry up, Is the hairpin this Buyao more beautiful, or is it better to put this jade hairpin?" Wang Yuan'er held a red gold filigree inlaid treasure Buyao and a jade hairpin and gestured on his head.

Qiuyun and Dongxue looked at each other, and said with a smile: "Grandma is naturally beautiful, she looks good in anything she wears, in my opinion, you can wear both of them, just let Xia Yu give you a flying bun."

The newly-proposed second-class girl, Xia Yu, is very skillful with her hair. Not to mention the female celebrity, she can do more than a dozen kinds of hair buns.
Wang Yuan'er said angrily: "You have a sweet mouth. I gave birth to Brother Chu, and my face and body have gained a lot of weight. I have to lose weight, but you still used good words to slander me."

"Grandma is not fat, people say it's a blessing, her skin is tender, like a little girl, she can pinch water." Qiu Yun said good things with a smile.
"Hey, it looks like you rinsed your mouth with honey water today, it's too sweet." Wang Yuan'er smiled, and compared again with the hairpin, saying: "In that case, let's call Xia Yu in."

"Yes."

After a while, Xia Yu came in, according to Qiuyun and the others, with her hands flying, but in a moment, Wang Yuan'er tied up a Feixia bun, with some pearl flowers pinned in the bun, inserted a jade hairpin and swayed, The person in the mirror is full of grace and luxury.

The maidservants complimented her constantly, coaxing Wang Yuan'er into a ecstasy, and rewarded them with a silver key.

"Grandma is so happy and interested in dressing up today. Her face is almost blooming into a flower, shining brightly. Is there something good about it? Telling it will make the servants happy." Qiu Yun asked again with a gossipy face.

good thing?It should be a good thing to get revenge, right?
Wang Yuan'er smiled. She did sleep very well and deeply last night, and she still had no dreams all night. She felt very refreshed when she woke up together.

Sure enough, when she felt comfortable, she saw that everything was lively and interesting, so she started to dress herself up.

"The good thing is that your girl's marriage is about to start!" Naturally, Wang Yuan'er would not tell the truth, and only pinched Qiu Yun's face to make fun of it.

Qiu Yun was pretty, but couldn't help asking: "What eyebrows?"

"The guard next to me, Zhang Qi seems to have taken a fancy to you, and I'm going around the corner to ask you about you!" Wang Yuan'er covered her mouth and smiled.

Zhang Qi?

Qiu Yun tilted her head and thought for a while, the big black guy who said she had bugs on her head and couldn't utter a single word after ten sentences?
Qiu Yun's face was a little red, and he muttered, "It's that Mensaoer."

Wang Yuan'er took a closer look and chuckled: "It seems that some people can't keep them anymore."

All the servants followed suit.

Qiuyun Buyi: "Grandma, this is all about nothing, slaves and maidservants don't follow."

"Then if Zhang Qi brings a matchmaker, should I agree or not?" Wang Yuaner deliberately teased.

Qiu Yun pursed her lips, blushed, lowered her head, and said after a long while: "The servant is grandma's, let grandma be the master!"

Everyone understood and laughed again.

After laughing and fussing for a while, brother Chu came to say hello, but after a while, Wang Chuner came again, she was worried about the eldest sister, after all, she cried like that yesterday, it really made people feel ashamed.

It can be seen that Wang Yuan'er is refreshed and smiling, even looking brighter than before, and can't help but wonder, which song is this singing?
Wang Yuan'er didn't explain too much, and changed the topic after a few words with a smile. Wang Chun'er was kind-hearted, so she naturally stopped talking when she saw that the elder sister was fine.

……

The days are spent in a dull way.

After letting go of the great hatred in her heart, Wang Yuan'er became more cheerful, especially after becoming a mother, her brows became more kind, and with confinement sitting well, she became rounder and looked more graceful.

Within a few days, Zhang Qi sent a matchmaker to Wang Yuaner's place to propose marriage, and asked to marry Qiuyun. Wang Yuaner took her own decision and promised her to go out. Considering that there was no man around her for the time being, he delayed Qiutang's marriage. I got married again in a few months, and set the wedding date in December.

The two maidservants were going to be married off at once. Although they both came back to be the maids in charge, the eldest girl also had to be promoted again, so while the two of Qiutang devoted themselves to making dowries for themselves, they were also training the newcomers to take over.

It was already a month after Wang Yuan'er gave birth safely, and Madam Zheng and Madam Xu, who were sent by Mrs. Song, could also retire, so they bid farewell to Wang Yuaner.

The two nuns are very dedicated people, and they are a little bit reluctant to resign. They naturally want them to stay in their hearts. After all, she will have another child in the future, but their families are all in the south of the Yangtze River, and now they are leaving home There was also a year, even if she wanted to keep someone, she couldn't wipe away his family's happiness, so she forcibly broke up.

Therefore, Wang Yuan'er agreed to their resignation, and gave Cheng Yi a reward of 50 taels of silver each, and sent someone to send them away.

After seeing off the two nuns to leave, Wang Yuan'er started to arrange the dowry for the two close maids.

Apart from Sujuan and the others back then, Qiutang and Qiuyun were the first to follow Wang Yuaner, their relationship was naturally extraordinary, and they treated her sincerely, and now that they were getting married, Wang Yuaner was unwilling to treat them badly.

Therefore, Wang Yuan'er prepared four dowries for each of them, and also gave each of them 80 taels of silver at the bottom of the box. up.

No, looking at Wang Yuaner was like looking at a gold mine.

Carrying the dowry four times, and the money at the bottom of the box, even marrying a girl is so generous, who in the town has such a hand?Even ordinary wealthy businessmen marry their daughters, that's all.

Qiutang and Qiuyun knew about it, so they were very grateful, and they kowtowed to Wang Yuaner a few times. After all, the dowry was decent, and when they married, their husband's waists were straight, and Wang Yuaner praised them so much, her husband's family would not dare to underestimate them. lost them.

……

Let go of the resentment in her heart, find a good husband's family for the people around her, and have a son with everything. Wang Yuaner's life is going smoothly, but now it's March, and her smile fades.

In March of Yangchun, the spring rains are continuous.

In the past springs, spring rains were bound to fall, but it was so continuous like this year, but it was very rare.

Wang Yuaner stood at the door, watching the raindrops falling from the eaves, her mouth pursed into a line.

"Grandma, it's cold in spring, why are you standing here?" Dongxue draped a white-haired cloak over her body, frowning.

"It's raining so much this year!" Wang Yuan'er said, looking at the bluestone bricks in the courtyard ticking by the rain.

"Spring rain is as expensive as oil. If the rain falls well, the crops will be good!" Dongxue said with a smile, not knowing.

Wang Yuaner showed a wry smile.

If it keeps going like this, how can it be good?

"Hasn't Master come back yet?" Wang Yuan'er asked Cui Yuan.

The snow on Xiangshan Mountain had melted a lot. He took Qiuhe and others up the mountain early in the morning, intending to check the terrain, but now it was almost dark, but the people hadn't returned yet.

"Why don't I send someone to ask at the front yamen?" Dong Xue said after looking at the sky.

Wang Yuaner nodded.

When Cui Yuan came back, it was already dark, and when he entered the door, he was covered in mud and water, so Wang Yuan'er was so frightened that he hurriedly ordered someone to bring hot water.

"God, why are you still shaved?" Wang Yuan'er was horrified when she saw a bloodstain on the right side of his chin as she waited for him to take off his clothes.

"It's nothing, just got hung up by a branch." Cui Yuanhun didn't care.

"It's alright even though it's bleeding, I'll help you with the medicine later." Wang Yuan'er was heartbroken.

Cui Yuan nodded indifferently.

Wang Yuan'er helped him take a bath again, wiped his back with a rag, and asked, "It's been a long day, what can you see?"

"Last year's winter came too early, and the snow fell heavily. The snow in the valleys and valleys was deep and thick, and much of it hadn't melted. Now it's still raining and the weather is cold. I guess there is still time to melt. Also, If the rain keeps falling, the streams on the mountain merge into rivers, and if the snow melts again, it may skyrocket..." Cui Yuan's voice was filled with deep sorrow.

Flash floods are all sudden, you never know if it will come and when it will come, but what is certain is that if the water level rises to a certain extent, it will erupt.

When the water is full, it overflows, which is probably what it means!

What Cui Yuan is worried about is that the snow in the valley has not yet melted, once the snowmelt glaciers and torrents form, it is really hard to escape.

Wang Yuaner's hand paused: "How deep is it? But it looks like it has melted quite a bit."

Cui Yuan smiled wryly: "That's also a low position, but you haven't seen the high position, it's as thick as Xuexue with my chest."

Wang Yuaner was shocked, his face turned pale, it was so deep.

"Don't worry, Brother Man's [-] days will be held at the end of the month, and you will go back to Beijing first." Cui Yuan patted her back with his hand.

Suddenly, Wang Yuaner hugged him from behind and said in a trembling voice, "Do you believe it? Will it really cause mountain torrents?"

Cui Yuan fell silent.

Wang Yuaner's heart also cooled slightly, and it took him a while to hear him say: "I don't really want to believe it, but the facts are in front of me, I just hope that God will take pity on me and stop the heavy rain."

Only the power of God can save such a disaster. If the rain keeps falling, then it is impossible to escape.

"Tell me, can you set fire to the mountain? Let the snow melt faster? Before the rain is not heavy, pour tung oil on it, so as to melt the snow first." Wang Yuan'er had a whim.

Cui Yuan was startled, but shook his head: "This is impossible, the snow mountain has its own laws, if you force it to burn, what if it avalanches? What if the mountain collapses?"

Wang Yuan'er slumped, buried her head in his neck, and murmured: "It seems that I really can only rely on God's blessing."

In the clean room, the two of them said nothing more, they both secretly prayed in their hearts, God bless Changle.
