Chapter 219 Cousin
Chapter 219 Cousin
Yu Qiuer's hand was swollen for three whole days.
??During these three days, she couldn't sleep well, couldn't eat well, and most importantly, she was not allowed to go out.
??She had just received so much silver, but she didn't spend a single penny. It was simply inhumane!
??After the swelling on her hand subsided and she guessed that her aunt's anger had subsided, Yu Qiuer packed her small bag and went to the courtyard where Pan Yingying and Yu Chaosheng lived.
??In the flower-filled yard, Batian was lying on the swing thinking about Tiger Life.
Yu Qiuer ran over quickly, pried open Fat Tiger's mouth, grabbed a piece of dried meat from her bag and stuffed it into his mouth, "Batian, good boy."
??After picking up two handfuls of tiger heads, Yu Qiuer skipped into the house.
??Batian tilted his head, chewed the dried meat, swallowed it into his stomach, and continued to think about tiger life.
??Batian: Dad and Mom haven't taken it out to play for five days, I'm worried...
??Pan Yingying was sitting in front of the mirror, and Yu Chaosheng was clumsily braiding her hair into a pigtail.
??Afterwards, although the auntie clearly said that I would only hit you seven times, I insisted on increasing it to ten times, and even personally beat your hands into pig's trotters.
??In order to comfort Uncle Liang who was crying, Yu Chaosheng secretly stuffed a large jade leaf cut from under the fat white man's shoes into my hand.
??Last year, the Huang family had a quarrel. A concubine's daughter from a branch of the family had a quarrel with the eldest son of a distant relative who came to seek refuge with them.
After the introduction, Lu Lianpiao took out eight silver bills from her bag and slapped them under the dressing table with great care, "That's the living expenses for you and your two sisters!"
??Lu Lianpiao and Wang Xueer had already walked out with their bags. When they heard your shout, they slowly walked out of the house.
??You still hold a grudge!
Yu Chaosheng exclaimed, "We Taoyuan people are very honest when we say something!" After a pause, you added confidently, "Only pay for that month."
??You were sitting on the seventh floor, facing the front alley. As soon as the dishes came down, there was a noise coming from upstairs.
Yu Chaosheng laughed a few times, then realized why he came here, and asked tentatively, "Auntie, can't you go out?"
??When I exchanged the silver notes for silver ingots, I always felt like I was being scratched by a cat.
??She saw the little girl peeking out from behind the gauze curtain in the mirror, and she turned around and waved to her with a smile.
Your voice was soft, and the people upstairs heard it, but Pan Yingying, who was sitting next to you, only heard it clearly.
??As soon as she moved, her long black hair slipped from Yu Chaosheng's hands, and he cried out in panic.
Yu Qiuer's forehead jumped, and she turned around to see: eight hundred taels.
"Hey! You were talking about that big girl..." Yu Chun'er was interrupted by Yu Chaosheng before she could finish her sentence.
??How can a little woman like you cry so much?
??What kind of inspiration is that? He is just jealous that my hair is better than his!
Then he stuck his head out to look upstairs and saw a girl of about eleven or fourteen years old, dressed in a royal blue satin dress, being held down by two people who looked like servants, and being slapped in the face by a nanny.
??There is no one among people, no sky in the sky, and no uncle’s board.
Yu Chaosheng laughed and explained everything to you one by one, "The gold bracelet was given to you, the hairpin belongs to your sister, and the earrings belong to your cousin Xue'er."
??Although she was wearing silk clothes, it could not hide the fatigue emanating from within.
??Yu Chuner turned her head to look at you, "What? Did you see his uncle, a little living person?"
??“Hey, little aunt.” Yu Qiuer came down.
??Yu Chaosheng looked over curiously and saw that it was Dada who exclaimed, "Little cousin!"
??Pan Yingying rolled her eyes. She didn’t know what was wrong with this boy. Recently, he insisted on learning how to comb her hair. He said that he was stuck in a writing session for his new book and needed some inspiration.
??Long Qi gave Long Bayi a look. The tacit understanding that the two of them had developed in the front palace since they were young had not yet allowed them to understand each other's thoughts.
??The reason Long Qi and Long Bayi were willing to go out with you was because Lu Lian Piao Xu made a bold statement, saying that he would treat the seven of you to a delicious meal. Otherwise, you would rather stay outside the yard and teach the maids and servants swordsmanship.
??Lu Lianpiao raised his eyebrows in surprise, took the big bag and opened it.
"Hey, don't move! Don't move!"
??Bad guys, they really want to take advantage of just one person?
??Yu Chaosheng happily returned to the courtyard where the eight sisters lived and shouted, "Sisters, let's go!"
??You will eventually enjoy the blessing of being the wife of an official.
??You have always been well-informed, and since you gathered all the information about "Taoyuanzhai" before arriving in the capital, you can be more certain of the identity of the person upstairs.
??Yu Qiuer: ...
??Yu Qiuer burst out laughing at your amusement, "Okay, let Uncle Shi go out and buy a pig later, so that our family can also benefit from his help. We put in a lot of effort to find someone that time." You flicked eight banknotes with your fingers, "Our Da Qiu has made great progress!"
??It seems that it is not the two people at the bottom.
??Outside was a gold bracelet, a jade hairpin with very bad water content, and a pair of gold earrings.
??Finally, you said with a serious expression, "But remember the lesson from that time and come back early."
??But your beloved little son and grandson abandoned you at the most critical moment.
??Yu Chaosheng nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.
??When grandma took away the money that the family had and went back to the city with my uncle, you never complained, because grandma always said that your cousin wanted to study hard and pass the imperial examination, which was the hope of the entire Yu family. Of course, you also hoped that things would get bad at home.
?? "Are you really paying for living expenses? Are you regretting it?" You picked up the banknote and looked at the girl behind you.
The older girl came up to Yu Qiu'er with a big bag in her hand, like she was presenting a treasure. "Dear auntie, this is a gift you three sisters brought back for you after your trip. Please accept it."
??The older girl tilted her head and snorted heavily through her nose.
??You learned your lesson that time and didn’t go out alone. Instead, you brought the more reliable Long Qi and Long Bayi with you. As for Uncle Liang, forget it. You are really afraid of my tears.
You haven't realized your own accuracy yet.
??Even though your cousin secretly treats you and your sister like maids every time she comes home, how do you feel about it?
??Yu Qiuer waved her hand, "Let's go out and play."
??The hope of the whole family outside the memory is no longer the high-spirited appearance of the past, but looks lost and depressed.
??Lu Lianpiao pursed her lips and looked at the woman who was pressed to the ground, her brows slightly furrowed.
??Get on the carriage and head straight to the most prosperous East Market.
??That day, Yu Chaosheng took out a total of 1,000 taels of silver from the old woman's arms, gave 100 taels to each of his two sisters, and paid 800 taels for living expenses. You still had 700 taels left.
??The seven girls, each holding a candied haws, went from shop to shop. When it was almost noon, they found a nearby restaurant to eat.
There was no one nearby, and a man in white, Liu Fufeng, was being beaten by two maids.
Long Bayi made a cursory identification and whispered to Long Qi, "She is a daughter of a concubine from the branch of the Huang family in the Ministry of War."
??That time you definitely dared to go with Uncle Liang, and you had to keep your big leaves to go back and make a hairpin for your mother.
??As you said that, Yu Qiuer remembered the miserable state of the old woman outside the courtyard on the outskirts of the city.
