Xie Qiao lived in Chueyuexuan, and Yumei lived in Wangmei Courtyard. There was a two-story pavilion in the middle of the two courtyards, which was He Yulan's Lanxue Pavilion. Across the water in the north was He Ziqian's Suihan Residence, but it was so close that it was very close. .
It was not until evening that Xie Qiao saw his grandfather, the famous Hanlin bachelor. I heard from the ladies of the He family that since my grandmother passed away, my grandfather's living place has been moved to a small, clean courtyard to the east. The main courtyard was locked and vacant for many years.
Xie Qiao followed the housekeeper out of the gallery on the east side and walked a hundred meters west to the courtyard where his grandfather lived. The woman who led the way was named Wang, and she was my aunt's first-class housekeeper.
He¡¯s mother said that she was originally a girl from Mrs. Liu¡¯s side. She married into He¡¯s house and was later married to Su Liu¡¯er, a servant of the old master in the outer courtyard. After all these years, she is now somewhat respectable. Her son Erhu is now serving He Ziqian.
Xie Qiao had dinner in the garden, and then the Liu family sent Mrs. Wang to ask her to go to the front to meet her grandfather.
Speaking of this He family, Xie Qiao really couldn't adapt to it for a while. Probably Liu's family background was not high. I heard that my grandfather was also a Han clan student who studied in the past, and he became famous later. Therefore, some rules are much less than those in Xie Mansion.
I don¡¯t know about the Chinese New Year, but now each courtyard is equipped with a small kitchen cook. Whatever you want to eat, each courtyard cooks it separately, and the corresponding portions are always put in the account. Although I have carried it clearly, the excitement is missing. It is always a bit hard to swallow when I want to eat alone.
Moreover, Xie Qiao saw that the women in charge of the stoves did not look like honest and honest characters, but rather had a cunning temperament. When they first met, Xie Qiao rewarded each of them with two ounces of money, and each of them squinted. He said the New Year's greetings without saying a word. At first, although he didn't neglect her, he looked at her indifferently.
Xie Qiao felt that her aunt was a little loose in her position as the housekeeper. Since she was a servant sent to her, she should have some rules, but from Xie Qiao's point of view, it was not very appropriate, let alone ordinary. However, these matters have nothing to do with her, and she is just staying here as a guest for a while. She cannot interfere with the servants of the He family here. She will not be chewed out, but it is not worth the loss.
Therefore, I secretly told Qiaolan He's mother not to get involved in He's affairs here, just pretend to be deaf and mute, and just have an ear. Especially He's mother, since she entered He's house, she kept mumbling that the eldest girl used to What was the situation like when the second girl was here, what is it like now? There are many sighs of dissatisfaction. Let people listen to it. If it reaches the ears of aunt, don't cause trouble.
Xie Qiao could see clearly that despite Liu's open appearance, he really didn't have much tolerance in his heart. Take herself as an example. Mother He once told her many times that her mother, the eldest aunt of the He family, and Mrs. Liu were helpful in times of need. She said that she looked at her own mother's face and treated herself too. I won't be left out in the cold.
"It's a pity that the intimacy is affectionate, but it is so hollow in the bones and not real at all. And since entering He's house, she has not mentioned a word about her mother, which shows that she is extremely unwilling to mention it. The reason behind this can be understood after a brief thought. Although he accepted the favor, he was unwilling to highlight his original incompetence.
"But the two cousins ??in the He family are really nice. She has a gentle and kind temperament, and her behavior is generous and decent. The sisters just talked for a while and became affectionate with each other.
Second cousin He Yumei heard that she was the daughter of her aunt. She looked at her aunt with genuine pity, but for some unknown reason, Mrs. Liu did not look like such a tolerant and forgiving person.
Xie Qiao followed Mama Wang into the courtyard, but did not enter the main room. When they arrived at the west wing, the two little girls opened the curtain.
Mrs. Wang stopped outside the corridor and whispered:
"Girl, please go in. The old man is always very quiet. Even the servants don't dare to raise their voices in this yard. The old slave is waiting for the girl outside."
Xie Qiao glanced briefly, it was already a little late now, because summer was about to come, and the days were long and the nights were short. At this time, there was still some unfinished sunset glow in the sky, and the gorgeous colors were reflected on the eaves of the corridor, which looked a bit The mottled texture adds a sense of desolation.
Xie Qiao secretly exhaled and walked into the room calmly.
Inside, Bachelor He was looking at a painting on the west wall with his hands behind his back, looking very entranced. Even when Xie Qiao came in, he didn't look back.
On one side of the big bookcase in the middle, two pretty girls with their hair in buns stood respectfully. They only smiled lightly at Xie Qiao and said nothing.
Xie Qiao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He originally followed the rules and etiquette and came in by himself.In response, he squatted down and retreated.
Her grandfather was beyond her expectation. Mo looked less like a court official and more like a man of letters who was passionate about landscapes. However, the occasional flash of light in his eyes still revealed a bit of someone who had been in a high position for a long time. Sharp.
Xie Qiao turned around and looked around. Under the light on the eaves, there was a plaque with the name Zhiyuan Zhai written on it. He thought this was his grandfather's study.
Over there, Mrs. Wang didn¡¯t want Xie Qiao to come out after being in there for a long time. I wanted to inquire about it, but I knew that the old man was no more generous than his wife, but he didn't dare to make any mistakes.
He was anxious over there, and when he turned his face and saw Xie Qiao coming out, he couldn't help but recite a Buddhist sentence in a low voice. As soon as he came over, he saw Cuiqiao, the girl who was polishing ink in front of the old man, lifting the curtain and walking out, holding a square sandalwood box in her hand. He walked to Xie Qiao and knelt down to salute and said:
"This is what the old man gave to the girl. It is not a valuable thing, but it is an old thing that my aunt used. Please keep it and keep it in your mind."
