Zhu Jin naturally knew what Mrs. Liu meant. The clothes that Mrs. Liu liked were all in several large wardrobes, and the clothes that she didn't like were kept for appreciation and were kept in another room.
When the hibiscus was brought, the aunts immediately recognized that it was made a few years ago. It was a narrow-legged coat of purple and yellow okra dark damask trimmed with chinchilla skin. It was steady yet pretty, and the other
One of them is not vulgar, they are all Mrs. Liu's home clothes.
Everyone immediately praised her beauty and congratulated Aunt Luo.
Qiu Hong curled her lips and said to Qiu Lu: "Why don't you help me clean the room when Madam can't see you? I'm so unhappy about doing some work. Look, Madam is giving me face now."
Qiu Lu ignored it, Qiu Hong snorted lightly, twisted around and went to do something.
Aunt Zhao over there tried to interrupt several times, but failed. Shen Mingxuan kept winking at her, asking her to report Shen Mingzhu's situation quickly, otherwise it would be difficult to talk about it later during the meal.
Shen Mingxuan's maid was beaten by Shen Mingzhu. She felt aggrieved and went back to Dabei Temple to complain to the old lady and his wife. Little did she know that the lady didn't say anything and only said to have someone clean up and return home.
She didn't know what Madam was thinking, but she felt that Madam looked calm and did not say anything to blame Shen Mingzhu, nor did she say anything to blame her. Instead, she comforted her with a few words.
Shen Mingxuan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, wishing that Mrs. Liu would come forward for her quickly.
She originally thought that Mrs. Liu would immediately call Shen Mingzhu to scold her after she came back, blaming her for overstepping her bounds and interfering in housework instead of keeping her duties properly.
Maybe, they could also have Shen Mingzhu beaten up and starved for three days. Even better, she could be kept in the firewood shed, or let her do menial work.
Who knows, I have been busy for most of the day, but there is no sign at all.
Why is Shen Mingxuan not in a hurry!
Mrs. Liu over there seemed to have forgotten that incident. She was extremely peaceful and virtuous. She was still asking if the master was back, sending someone to ask, etc.
Aunt Zhao glanced at the opportunity and said with a smile: "Madam, it's getting late and the food is getting cold. Why don't you eat first?"
Mrs. Liu, however, was not very enthusiastic and said, "Let's wait and see."
Soon, the girl came to reply and said that the master was busy at the Yamen and would not be back for dinner for the time being.
Mrs. Liu hummed, her face darkened slightly, and she glanced at Aunt He.
But Aunt He looked at her nose with her eyes, her nose at her mouth, and her mouth was concerned, pretending not to know.
"Everyone is here!" She glanced around.
Shen Mingxuan immediately shouted: "Madam, the eldest lady is back, and she hasn't come to say hello yet."
At this time, Mrs. Liu's son Shen Ming'an woke up and was carried over by the wet nurse. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and muttered: "Mom, I want to see my eldest sister."
Mrs. Liu's face darkened and she glanced at the nanny, "How could the young master know about the eldest sister?"
The nanny immediately knew that she thought someone had bribed her and deliberately instigated the young master to say this.
She hurriedly said: "On the day I went to Dabei Temple, the young master saw the second young master in the garden. He did not allow the servants to take care of it. He wanted to talk to the second young master. After saying a few words, the second young master said that the eldest lady was coming back. The young master asked, '
Is the eldest sister as good-looking as the second brother? When she comes back, please play with me.'"
She is a young woman in her twenties, imitating the childish language of a seven-year-old child, and because she is too nervous, it is a bit inappropriate.
However, everyone naturally understood, and Mrs. Liu, thinking about how lively and cute her son was on weekdays, became happy and opened her arms to him.
