Passerby's daily life

Chapter 98

Mrs. Huang's courtyard is the fourth main courtyard. At the fork, Mrs. Huang said: "I should invite Susu to sit in my yard, but I drink medicine all the year round. The smell is so bad in the house. I will clean it up when I go back." , I’ll invite you to come over another day.”

Susu hurriedly said: "Auntie is too polite. Yang Liu and I grew up together. It is not an exaggeration to say that we are sisters. You must not be strangers to me." If it were someone else, Susu would not Being so close, she also saw Yang Liu touching his belly just now, but she didn't expect Mrs. Huang to make a sound immediately.

What does this mean?It explained that she had been paying attention to Yang Liu, and when she saw that she was a little uncomfortable, she hurriedly gave Mrs. Huang a step down, which made Yang Liu feel a lot easier.This kind of performance, even for the child in Yangliu's belly, Susu is also very grateful to her, and when she sees Mrs. Huang, she is not the kind who doesn't care about her daughter-in-law, even for Yangliu, Susu is willing to get close to her.

Mrs. Huang also felt this kind of closeness, she smiled and said: "You little sisters go back to the yard and talk about your heart, if there is anything, just go to Mrs. Han."

After hearing this, Mrs. Han took a step forward, "Grandma and Miss Su are both used to seeing good things, and the slaves don't dare to fight with axes, as long as there is something you want to eat and play with, just tell the slaves to do it. "

Previously at the door, there were many people talking, but Susu didn't care too much even though she was curious.Now, when the person came to him, Susu could smell a faint fragrance, which was too faint, if it wasn't for Susu's sense of smell, which was comparable to a dog's nose when she opened her golden fingers, she would have thought it was an illusion.Susu felt that this scent was very familiar.

But after thinking about it, she had never made this type of fragrance. Susu's memory has always been very good. This fragrance is not only nice but also very special, so she can't forget it.But the body is very familiar with it. Susu thought of a possibility, that is, the original owner had this fragrance in her memory. Although it was hidden deep in her mind, waiting for her to dig it out, the instinct of the body sent a signal. Susu has encountered this situation before, and that is when dealing with Ruan Liulang.

As I said before, when Su Suchu crossed over, he had no memory of the original owner. They were all triggered memories. Only when he saw Ruan Liulang, his body had an instinct, and he called "Sixth Brother", and then he had the memory of Ruan Liulang .

If there is no such instinct, then there is memory. I want her to call a "primary school student" who was only 12 years old at the time her brother without any grievances. Susu thinks that she should not be too natural. 12 years old adds up to more.

Later, there were several times of this kind of bodily instinctive reaction. Susu concluded that it was something the original owner thought was very important, and it was engraved in his bones, so even if the memory was not restored, the body did not forget it.

Susu thought for a long time, but still no memory flashed, she frowned, Susu really couldn't remember, so she just let it go.

At this time, Yang Liu had already taken Susu Xiang to her yard.Susu saw that the bright smile on Yang Liu's face just now faded in an instant, and a tired look appeared on his face. "How far is it? How about calling you a soft sedan."

Yang Liu waved his hand, "It's here, but I'm not that delicate after a few steps." Su Su gave her a white look: "You should pay attention. Seeing that Yang Liu has a tired face, but he is still in good spirits, Su Su He asked, "Are you really okay?This is your home, don't be too polite. "

Hearing this, Yang Liu shook his head helplessly, looked around, and saw that there was no one else except the two little maids beside Susu and her confidant maid, so she sighed and said: "I also thought earlier that there are so many masters in the uncle's mansion. Servant, I also keep Suantang Dali's watertight, managing a small Huang family is not easy. Only now do I know that the ambition is not in the old, and the house is not in the family!"

Susu asked the maids around her to step back, followed behind the two of them, and said in a low voice, "What's the situation? You are pregnant. I told you a long time ago. Don't worry about messy things."

"You think I'm in a hurry, but I can't help myself." After Yang Liu finished speaking, she complained to Susu.

Mr. Huang would go back to the main room every day, and outsiders would only think that they were a harmonious husband and wife, but everyone in the Huang family knew that Mr. Huang hadn't been in Mrs. Huang's room for ten years, and only rested at Aunt Han's place in the Kuayuan.

I heard that when Aunt Han was adopted by Mr. Huang "drunk", she wanted to take advantage of the family rules left by her ancestors to give Aunt Han the status of an equal wife, but she was beaten by Mrs. Huang. Wife, even Aunt Han's slave status is now suppressed by Mrs. Huang so that she will not be released from her status.

But so what if it's just an unrecognizable Tongfang, what about being an "aunt" whose name is unknown, she is favored by Mrs. Huang, and Mrs. Huang is in charge of this back house on the surface, but in fact it is that Aunt Han Taking care of her, the servants call her "Second Wife" in private.

If Mrs. Huang hadn't given birth to the only heir of the Huang family, I don't know what kind of situation I would have fallen into now.Just because he has a good son, Master Huang doesn't like his original wife, and no one dares to neglect her. Aunt Han still has to perform slavery in front of her.

The Huang family will not spread such embarrassing things to the outside world. Grandpa Qiao inquired and inquired, and believed that the Huang family would not treat his granddaughter badly. My uncle is also a good grandpa who has thirty childless grandparents who can take concubines. Training, some small details are ignored in the past, and it is a bit embarrassing for Yang Liu to marry in.

The Huang family has been passed down for several generations, and her main task is to give birth to the next generation of successors. Of course, no one mentions calling her a housekeeper, but a grandma is begging for a living in the hands of a housekeeper who is not even an aunt. Why don't you call her? Aggrieved.Fortunately, the brother-in-law of the Huang family is also stubborn, and with the support of Mrs. Huang, a small kitchen was built in the Yangzhi Hall, and everything was under the private account of the brother-in-law of the Huang family, otherwise Yang Liu didn't know if she could bear it.

Susu didn't expect that there was such a godlike development in it, and she frowned and thought about it, "Your father-in-law is not an official, or a spoiled concubine and annihilating his wife would be enough for him to eat a pot. However, brother-in-law is a family member. The sole heir of your family, you are pregnant with a child, but you just opened a small kitchen, and you still need to smuggle money? This is a bit wrong!"

Yang Liu shook the handkerchief, "Your brother-in-law didn't ask me to take care of it, but just told me to take care of the baby. It's really annoying!" Yang Liu stayed with Susu for seven or eight years, and also learned a few fashionable expressions. Appropriate.

"Auntie is willing to be oppressed by a dowry maid?" Susu became more and more confused. Mrs. Huang seemed to be quite sensible, so why would she be willing to call a housekeeper.

Yang Liu's expression was unclear, she looked around, and whispered: "I heard that Aunt Han was pregnant before, and she kept it hidden. It took almost five months for someone to discover it. Several generations of Huang's family, plus With such a big belly, even the great-grandfather of the Huang family is worried about being a descendant of the Huang family, so he just turned a blind eye and waited until she was born and recorded under my mother-in-law's name as a direct parent."

Yang Liu paused when she said this, feeling that gossip about elders is a bit bad, but after all, she is closer to Susu, and she has kept some things in her heart for a long time, so she continued: "When Aunt Han was eight months pregnant, At the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner, my father-in-law wanted her to attend, but my mother-in-law didn’t want to. Somehow, my mother-in-law fell into a ball with Aunt Han who was persuading me. Later, it was difficult to give birth, and when the baby was born, because it had been in the stomach for too long, it was already out of breath. It was a boy."

What happened after that, Yang Liu needless to say, Su Su guessed it, it must be that Aunt Han was injured and could no longer conceive, the wife of the Huang family lived in seclusion, Aunt Han got the housekeeper right of the inner courtyard, and the elders of the Huang family felt that they owed her, even though they were in the way Yu Zuzong ruled that she could not be given a title, but he acquiesced in her status as "Second Wife".

Sure enough, what Yang Liu said was the same as what Susu guessed, they were all routines.

"I'm just very puzzled. Although Aunt Han is nominally her mother-in-law's dowry maid, but in private, no one knows that she is an anonymous but real second wife. Why does she still have to live in the same yard with my mother-in-law and insist on going to the house every day?" Not to mention serving my mother-in-law to get up and wash up, she is the first in everything. Even if she doesn't have the heart to fight for favor, doesn't she feel the pain of losing a child?"

This is what Yang Liu was most puzzled by, but Susu shuddered for no reason when she heard this, it seemed to be an answer to Yang Liu's question, and she seemed to mutter to herself: "Maybe, this Even her revenge may not be certain."

After Susu finished speaking, she and Yang Liu looked at each other in blank dismay, both of them felt a chill, thinking about it, they were terrified!

While speaking, he had already arrived at the Yangzhi Hall.After entering the yard, maidservants surrounded her, "Grandma is back!" "Miss Susu is here!" Susu saw that they were all Yangliu's companions, some of whom she didn't know, and they were also young. up.

The crowd surrounded Yang Liu and Susu and entered the room. Yang Liu didn't need to be polite to Susu, he just sat down on the chair and said, "Sit down quickly, your body is a bit weak these days, I think at the beginning, even if you stood for a day, that's the same. I'm alive and kicking, now it's only been a while, and I can't take it anymore." Then he told the maidservant: "It's a hot day, I don't need tea, bring a pot of sour plum juice and a pot of watermelon juice. Tell the kitchen to make it, and serve it up. There is also the Dutch water brought back by the uncle yesterday."

The maids quickly brought up a big food box, inside which was a box containing twelve kinds of sweets and fruits.

One is white sugar gorgon powder osmanthus cake, the same is bird’s nest ginseng powder eight-treasure western cheese cake, the same is almond bean flour Qiqiao crisp, the same is pigeon egg rock sugar thin rolls, the same is pigeon powder chicken oil fragrant leg fried rolls, and the same is frozen Taro and lotus root crystal cake, these are six kinds of tea.

The same sugar is Guangdong mint powder lotus seed sugar, the same is fried banana sugar with citric acid, and the same is bergamot slices.The same fruit is fresh snow lotus root, the same apple pineapple, and the same milk crystal grape.

There are also several bottles of Dutch water under the food box, including ginger, lemon, mint, and salt water.The so-called Dutch water is the earliest soft drink, and it is also a product of the prosperity of Dachu's maritime trade. Only this was introduced recently.

How should I put it, it can only be said that the founding emperor of Chu State invented some ways to survive, at least he did not invent soda, so Dutch water is still a rare thing in Chu Chu now.

Susu was really hot, and she was not polite to Yang Liu. She drank a glass of watermelon juice first, and when she was about to pour a glass, she withdrew her hand from Yang Liu's staring eyes. How come you still don’t know taboos in your childhood!”

Susu was both helpless and touched, and raised her hand as a sign of surrender, "Okay, I made a mistake, and I will never do it again." Yang Liu looked at her rascal, amused and angry, and said, "I should be called Let's see what the fairy-like girl Susu looks like in private."

Susu couldn't help but rolled her eyes, "It would be great if I were a fairy, I don't need to eat or drink, and I'm still here to listen to your lectures, I've already 'flyed into the sky'." Miss Susu is really not a fairy at all, but she is good-looking, even if she rolls her eyes, she can look better than others. She is already desperate for this world that looks at faces.

Susu had a lot of private things to tell Yang Liu, and Yang Liu also had a lot of worries to tell Susu. After eating something, the main reason was that Susu forced Yang Liu to eat some fruit. Seeing that she didn't vomit, she became more and more sure that it was something in her heart. , so I ordered a few dishes that she and Yangliu both love, and pregnant women can eat, and asked the small kitchen to cook them. It will be lunch in a while.

Then the two entered Dongnuan Pavilion hand in hand, ready to have a sleepover meeting.

The main building of Yangzhitang consists of three rooms, one is bright and the other is dark. The middle is the living room, the west is the bedroom, and the east is the place where Yangliu spends his time during the day. It is equivalent to the Nuan Pavilion.If it was before, the bedroom would be the most suitable place for sleeping meetings, but now that Yangliu is married, the bedroom is the most private space for the couple. Susu is a particular person, so of course she wouldn't go in, so Dongnuange became the first choice.

The East Nuan Pavilion is divided into two parts by green gauze cupboards. The outer room is next to the window with a heated kang, and in the middle of the floor is a mahogany round table with four carved mahogany stools. This is where meals are usually set.

Against the wall in the bisque cupboard is a mahogany carved Amitabha couch with 24 views of the West Lake. Although the weather is hot, the floor is covered with thick bearskin carpets. You can’t see the insteps of your feet when you step on it. It must be because you are afraid that the willows will fall when you get up. From here A little detail shows the intentions of the Huang family's brother-in-law.

After entering the green gauze closet, Susu and Yang Liu took off their shoes under the service of the maids, and asked the maids to wait in the outer living room, Yang Liu didn't show his belly, so he just sat on the floor.

Susu and Yang Liu were half leaning on the side of the couch. Just as Yang Liu was about to say something, Susu's expression became serious for a moment, "What's wrong?" Yang Liu was taken aback. It's not the rhythm of a sleepover.

And Susu actually smelled a fragrance from the moment she entered the door, but if there was nothing there, the fragrance became clear when she entered the green gauze cabinet, and this fragrance was similar to the one she smelled on that "Aunt Han" exactly the same.

Susu asked suspiciously: "You are pregnant, still incense?" Yang Liu is the most beautiful among the four of them.Yang Liu hurriedly shook her head, "Since I knew I was pregnant, I didn't use much rouge and water powder, not to mention incense, because my complexion was really bad, and I only used a little bit of the botanical make-up you made yourself."

"Didn't you smell a fragrance? It's faint and very nice!" Yang Liu sniffed vigorously, "I didn't smell it, did you use perfume?" Susu couldn't help but give her a white look, "On weekdays I just If you don't use those things, since I know you are pregnant, how can I use them!"

Susu couldn't help standing up, sniffing the source of the fragrance carefully...

　Ah Fat found that his brain had opened up again, and when he corrected typos, he felt like a big pot of blood.It's a sin to patronize the code words and almost forgot to post the text!
