Drunken Crane Immortal

Chapter 8

Hua Zhaoshui thought that Sheng Jianwei said not to eat it just casually, but it turned out that he really didn't let him eat it. The young master had already had dinner with his wife and came back, and he was still hungry.

Originally, Hua Zhaoshui was already exhausted from carrying things back and forth today, and was already groaning with hunger, but he offended someone with one sentence, and dinner was ruined.

Sheng Jianwei was reading a book in the outhouse, and Hua Zhaoshui had to watch whether the tea was cold or not, and kept waiting by the side. When it was dark, he went to light the lamps, and cut the splashed lanterns from time to time.

Hua Zhaoshui stared at the young master's back and was so angry that his teeth itched, he said to himself that he was a big liar, and at first he told me that he would not treat me badly, and let me be hungry today.

He brought the hot tea in his hand, and thought again, what if there is no food tomorrow?When I first came to his room, I was not scared to death by him, I was going to starve to death.

The more Hua Zhaoshui thought about it, the more angry she became, and the action of putting the teacup became heavier, with a bang, the young master also looked up at him.

Hua Zhaoshui's slander turned to slander, but she didn't dare to really offend him, so she quickly admitted her mistake: "Master, I shook my hand, accidentally."

Sheng Jian glanced at him slightly, grinned inexplicably, then returned his eyes to the book, and said, "Why, you're so hungry that you can't even hold a cup of tea?"

Hua Zhaoshui was sitting by the side, her eyebrows were lowered, she really didn't want to talk to him, but she didn't dare, so after moaning for a while, she said: "Master, why didn't you let me eat? I didn't do anything wrong..."

Today Ming Yu had persuaded him to ask him to beg, the young master didn't care about it, but Hua Zhaoshui wanted to take a gamble and wanted to break up with him.

Without raising his eyelids, Sheng Jianwei said, "I'm happy."

Hua Zhaoshui suffocated and went back, thinking that she said brazenly, "I won't come to beg him if I'm starved to death", and immediately regretted it, there is no reason to talk to this person!He is a master and he is a slave, how can he be angry with his master.

Thinking of this, Hua Zhaoshui's cheeks began to heat up - the young master always joked with him, and he couldn't think that all the young master's words were jokes.

He knelt down next to the young master dejectedly, and said, "Young master, I was wrong."

The second young master was finally willing to look at him right now, his eyes fell on the top of his head, and he said, "Oh? What's wrong with you? Didn't you just say that you were right?"

Hua Zhaoshui didn't hold back her voice anymore, she was a little downcast, and said: "Young master said I was wrong, then I was wrong."

Sheng Jianwei's tone improved obviously, and he said, "It turns out that just punishing you with a meal can make you so obedient?"

Hua Zhaoshui wanted to sigh again, but just said: "Of course I have to listen to what the young master says."

Sheng Jianwei stretched out his hand to grab his arm, and as soon as he pulled him up, the arm wrapped around his waist, wrapped it around his arms, and rushed outside to shout for the rain.

Ming Yu immediately entered the room and said, "Master."

"Pass the meal to this poor little actor who is still hungry," Sheng Jianwei told Ming Yu, still staring at him, "just say that the young master is hungry."

Ming Yu let out a hey and went to the back kitchen.

It's over.Hua Zhaoshui thought, he won't want to feed me again, then I can't tell if I have ten mouths.

While waiting for the food to be served, Sheng Jianwei just let him sit on his lap without doing anything else, and the room was so quiet that it was scary.

Hua Zhaoshui didn't dare to look at his things at first, but he would see them as soon as he moved his eyes. After he glanced twice, he understood why the young master was so relieved - because he couldn't understand at all, and these two eyes made him sleepy up.

Hua Zhaoshui wanted to yawn, but since she was still sitting on the young master's lap, she tried her best to hold it back and let out several long breaths.

"What are you shaking?" Sheng Jianwei touched the top of his head with his chin and said, "You're so hungry?"

"No..." Hua Zhaoshui was a little embarrassed and said, "I'm a little sleepy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ming Yu came in to announce that the food was served, and the dead silence in the room disappeared immediately.

Sheng Jianwei looked at his eagerness to try, and said, "You look energetic, why do you feel sleepy when you sit in my arms?"

Hua Zhaoshui smiled at him and said, "Master, I feel refreshed when I see delicious food. Thank you, Master, for rewarding me."

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Sheng Jianwei didn't make things difficult for him, and let him go to eat.

Hua Zhaoshui didn't expect this meal to be so easy, the young master reads the young master's book, and he eats his meal.Well water does not violate river water.

Hua Zhaoshui felt that she was radiant after eating and drinking, and immediately ignored the fact that the master had starved him for several hours, and thought, the young master is not so difficult to get along with.

In the past few days, Hua Zhaoshui happily sent the young master away early in the morning. Knowing that he would not come back until very late on duty in the palace, he was even more excited--he was at ease when the young master was away.

Hua Zhaoshui was happy for many days, and wanted to visit his mother in the kitchen.He thought that if he stayed here by himself, the young master would not tell him to go home, and he would not dare to go back secretly, but going to the kitchen to talk to his mother would not violate anyone's taboo.

As soon as he came to the kitchen and saw Aying, seeing her kneading dough, he called mother from a distance.Aying followed the sound to look over, but her face suddenly changed, she rubbed her hands hastily on her body, walked over quickly, pulled him aside, said with a strange smile, "Why are you here? Does the young master know? "

"It's okay, mother." Hua Zhaoshui said happily, "Young master said that I can come to the kitchen and tell me what I want to eat, and I won't blame me for it."

Aying's hand was still rubbing against her body unconsciously, with a nervous expression, she said: "Okay, that's good, I made candied dates at home, and I always wanted to bring them to you. If I knew you would come over today, I would bring them to you." gone."

Hua Zhaoshui was always very happy seeing her mother, and said in a cheerful tone, "Then you can keep it for me. It will be the Mid-Autumn Festival again in a while, and I can go home after the festival."

Aying said again: "Okay, let's wait for the holidays - are you used to living with the second young master?"

Hua Zhaoshui said: "The young master sometimes has a really weird temper, but he doesn't make things difficult for me now. The girls in the yard are also very kind. I'm doing okay, mother, don't worry."

"That's good, then mother can rest assured," Aying said while stroking his head, and said, "Then you go back quickly, don't let the young master come back and find you, that would be bad."

Hua Zhaoshui was a little bit reluctant to leave, so she said: "The young master is on duty in the palace, and he won't be back for a while, mother, I want to talk to you."

Aying sighed, and said: "How can mother not miss you, I just hope that you can be more capable than parents, find a way to redeem yourself, and stop being a slave..."

As soon as she said these words, she was about to cry, Hua Zhaoshui hurried over to wipe her tears with her hands, and said, "Mom, I'm fine."

The mother and daughter had just talked for a while, when they heard someone shouting: "Aying!"

Hua Zhaoshui's happy expression disappeared immediately, and said, "Mother, I'm called you."

Aying touched his face, answered the other side, and said, "Good boy, I can go home after the holiday."

"Aying, why are you still here? I'm too busy over there!" A cook in a purple-red shirt came over and paused when she saw them, and said, "Isn't this your little flower? Why did you come here?" Are you here? Is the young master not here?"

Hua Zhaoshui was about to answer, but Aying blocked him and said, "He passed by and came to see me—Little Huaer, go back if you have nothing to do."

Hua Zhaoshui didn't understand what was going on, but when she heard that Aying's tone was wrong, she complied, and was about to leave when the cook said, "Don't rush away, we are curious all day long, and we want to know how to serve the master. How much reward can I get?"

"What kind?" Hua Zhaoshui felt that her tone was very strange, turned to look at A Ying, saw that his mother's face became ugly, and stopped talking.

The cook laughed and said, "Oh, this is not a rare thing, there is nothing to hide. Some people can't climb the master's bed if they want to, but if they can climb it, they can do it."

Aying's face turned red, and her tone became fierce: "Sister-in-law Zhang, what are you talking about? There are ninety or one hundred random rumors. It's not easy to talk nonsense without evidence."

Mrs. Zhang said: "It is indeed without evidence. After all, no one can hide under the second young master's bed as evidence."

Hua Zhaoshui understood it this time, and in a moment of anger, she grabbed Aying's hand and said, "Mother, I didn't!"

Aying patted the back of his hand and said: "Mother knows, mother knows, good boy, you go back first, and staying longer is not good for you."

Hua Zhaoshui finally understood why Aying had been urging him to leave just now—the kitchen was always the most informed about the news in each yard, and there were so many people talking, I didn't know how one thing could be spread.

Hua Zhaoshui knew there would be such rumors a long time ago, but she still felt chest tightness and shortness of breath when she thought about it. She comforted herself along the way, and it took a long time to calm down. She said in her heart, the young master is always like that. Ah, even if he was really asked to wait on the bed, he wouldn't dare to say no, his life would be lost, what's the use of fame.

He sighed as he thought about it, and thought again, he was born with such a fate, what can he do?Mother always said that they dragged me down, and now I also dragged them down.

Hua Zhaoshui went back to the yard in a low mood, he had a good appetite every day, today he didn't eat dinner because of a few words, and was busy in the young master's house.

Huayun came to look at him when he saw that he hadn't eaten. Seeing that he was going to cry or not, he was surprised and said, "Oh, what's the matter? Who bullied you? He was so angry that he didn't even eat. The young master knows that he should make fun of you again." gone."

As she spoke, she was about to pull him out, saying: "Eat first, then you will have the strength to get angry."

Hua Zhaoshui responded, not wanting to worry her, so she forced herself to ask, "Then what did you eat today?"

Huayun smiled at him, and said: "The young master said, you love that crab porridge, and asked me to save a bowl for you, but I haven't seen you after waiting for so long, and it's cold again, so I asked someone to heat it up." .”

Hua Zhaoshui sighed again after listening, thinking that the young master treated me very well, I shouldn't have blamed him in my heart just now, and it has nothing to do with him if others gossip.

When Huayun heard him sigh, he patted his arm and said, "What's the point of sighing? The leaves haven't fallen yet, so you sighed first, as if you were in your seventies."

Hua Zhaoshui also laughed when she heard her words, and said, "Stop sighing, there's no need to sigh if you have crab porridge."

Huayun accompanied him to eat, and asked all his words out of context, and said with a smile: "So I was angry because of this, that Mrs. Zhang, pitiful and hateful, don't bother with her."

Hua Zhaoshui asked doubtfully, "What do you mean by pitiful and hateful?"

Huayun sighed, and said, "Her daughter jumped into the well the year before last and died, and she used to be in the young master's yard—but she just did some grass and flower work, not serving in the house."

"Did you jump into a well?" Hua Zhaoshui put down all the spoons and said, "Why?"

"It's pitiful, but it's not because of her own mother," Huayun said with a displeased expression, "Once, your sister Liqi's mother was sick, so the young master gave her a few taels of silver and let her go." Going back to take care of my mother. Let Mrs. Zhang know about this, and she got confused, thinking that Liqi must have a dirty relationship with the young master. She repeatedly instigated her daughter, and she beat and scolded her whenever she refused. ——Amitabha , you didn't see her being beaten like that, with bruises all over her body."

Hua Zhaoshui was startled, and said: "Then... does the young master know?"

Huayun smiled helplessly, and said: "It's important to know or not, I just give some money to appease, after all, people are gone, so it's useless to say anything."

As she spoke, she lightly tapped the back of his hand with the handle of the round fan, and said, "Hurry up and eat, and don't get angry over such things in the future. In this big courtyard, who can not be said a few words."

Hua Zhaoshui nodded, and couldn't help but said: "Then... I don't think the young master is as vicious as others say."

As soon as he finished speaking, Huayun covered his face with a fan and coughed lightly.

Hua Zhaoshui turned her head abruptly, and saw the young master standing behind him at some point, seeing him looking over, she approached, and asked: "How did others pass it on, tell me?"
