And at this time, it is not separated from the house. Mu Yueli listened to Zhu'er's report, sipping the tea carefully, and a meaningful smile rose at the corner of her mouth.

"Miss, you said that these two young ladies are really a blessing in disguise, Zhu'er just heard that Aunt Xu was very angry!" Zhu'er's eyes turned slightly, Xiangye even moved the study to Wushuang Pavilion, and the second miss is becoming more and more favored.

Mu Yueli smiled silently, is it a blessing in disguise? She didn't think so, but Xu's reaction was what she expected, not only that, after she mentioned it today, Xu had to take some precautions if he wanted to deal with Mu Qingyu.

In Ruyi Garden, Cuihua was busy for two days, and finally selected one person from more than a dozen girls and brought it to Xu's face, Xu looked at the woman standing in front of him, but she was eighteen or nineteen years old, her clothes were ragged, and her eyes showed a trace of panic.

"What's your name?" asked Xu Shi with the Buddha beads in his hand, his sharp eyes still looking up and down at the woman in front of him.

"Slave. . . The slave is called Snow. Cher. Cher's eyes flickered, and in this strange environment, in front of this majestic woman, she was like a frightened fawn, and her heart was full of uneasiness.

"Xue'er?" Xu Shili's eyes narrowed slightly, and he got up and walked in front of Xue'er, "This face looks good, but it's just a little thinner and the skin is a little dirtier... What's going on? There's no water to wash her face at home? Cuihua, take her down, wash up, give her the eldest lady's clothes to wear, and then bring her over for me to see. ”

"Yes, ma'am. Cuihua took the order and took Xue'er down.

Xu sat on the chair with an expressionless face, thinking that in the past two days, Wanru's body was still as bad as ever, and Xiangye didn't care about it, and kept taking care of Mu Qingyu, which made him very angry, but there was nothing he could do, because Xiangye couldn't come to his Ruyi Garden.

Not long after, Cuihua returned to Xu's face with Xue'er, who had finished washing and changed into clothes, Xu looked at the woman again, but her eyes were bright, Fang Cai's ragged dress, and the dirt on her face, I didn't think this Xue'er was very standard, but at this moment, it was really a little beauty. Except for losing a little weight, everything else is really good.

"Look up and look at me. Xu spoke loudly, and there was a majesty in his voice.

Xue'er's heart couldn't stop beating wildly, she raised her head and met Xu's sharp eyes, her heart was shocked, and her eyes were full of horror. With a snap, Xu slapped Xue'er in the face.

"Ahh Cher exhaled in pain, her face burning with pain, and she couldn't understand why this lady was beating her.

Xu Shi looked at her pitiful appearance, a trace of displeasure crossed his heart, and he snorted coldly in his heart, these eyes are really hooking!

"How old are you?" Xu's voice was a little colder, as if it was about to freeze people.

"Slave. . . The slave maid will be nineteen in another month. Xue'er replied in a sway, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

"Nineteen, nineteen, haven't you had a Xu family yet?" Xu's eyes softened, when she was nineteen, she had already entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she was a strict person.

"The slave's family is poor, and my father is seriously ill. . . No one wants it. Xue'er said truthfully, who can look down on a woman who dragged a seriously ill father? Marrying her is equivalent to an extra burden.

Xu's eyes shone slightly, "Who else is there in the family?"

"There is also a younger brother in the slave family, the younger brother is still young, and when the mother gave birth to the younger brother, he died in childbirth, and the slave and maid have three people, including the father, the younger brother and the slave and the maid. In the face of Xu's fierce momentum, Xue'er's fear of Xu in her heart still did not decrease, no matter what she asked, she answered cautiously, just before coming, she heard Aunt Cuihua say that what Madame wants her to do, she will obey.

Xu nodded, and his sharp gaze looked at Xue'er again, and finally landed on the delicate face that was red from her beating, "Do you know why I hit you just now?"

"Slave. The slave doesn't know. Xue'er's face is still hot and painful now, and Xu's slap just now was not merciful.

"Hmph, remember, I will be your master in the future, no matter what I tell you to do, you have to do something, even if I beat you, you can only bear it, understand?" Xu's voice rose a little, which was even more intimidating than the majesty just now.

"Yes, the slave understands, but... Xue'er's eyes flickered with a little uneasiness, and she wanted to stop talking.

Xu Shi seemed to understand what she was thinking, and said lightly, "Your sick father, whether he can get the money to cure his illness depends on your performance." ”

"Yes, the slave and maid will definitely serve the lady well in the future. Xue'er knelt on the ground suddenly, although this lady was a little sharp, but the money for her father's medical treatment was finally settled, as long as she could cure her father and give her brother a chance to go to school, it didn't matter if she suffered hardships.

Xu snorted lightly, "Get up, it's not me who you want to serve, it's Xiangye, but you are now by my side as a maid in the past two days, and in two days, I will find an opportunity to send you over." ”

Xue'er didn't doubt him, her heart was full of gratitude, no matter who she served, being a maid in this prime minister's mansion, even if it was a fire girl, it was much better than in other places, and she was happy in her heart, "Madam, Xue'er wants to go home and tell her father about this matter." ”

"No need, Cuihua, you ordered someone to send some silver to her house, from today on, you will follow me, and you will not be allowed to leave the gate of this prime minister's mansion, understand?" Xu's eyes tightened, he didn't look at Xue'er, and drank tea by himself.

Xue'er was obviously disappointed, but thinking that maybe this was the rule of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she didn't doubt him, "Yes, the slave understands." ”

"Go down. Xu waved his hand and motioned for her to leave.

"The slave and maid are gone. ”

Waiting until Xue'er left the room, Cuihua said what she had been trying to say just now, "Madam, this Xue'er is too smart, her eyes are very charming, and her clothes are ragged and she hasn't seen it yet, the slave maid thought, if she really let her complete this task, in case Xiangye is really obsessed with her in the future, this will be for you... ”

Cuihua's worries are not unreasonable, this Xue'er is young, beautiful, and her pitiful appearance is very pitiful, I am afraid that it will be easy to invite God and send God when the time comes!

"If she is not beautiful, can she attract the master? What if she is obsessed, as long as she is obedient, doesn't she have a younger brother? And arrange his younger brother to go to the Acropolis and hand it over to my brother, so that he can be a subordinate in the mansion, and he has chips in his hand, are you not afraid that she will be disobedient?"

"By the way, let her sign the deed of sale, this is not allowed to be sloppy. Xu thought of something and immediately commanded.

"Yes, the deed slave has already been prepared. ”

"Very good!" Xu nodded with satisfaction, a sneer on the corner of his mouth, looking out the window, thinking that Mu Qingyu would be destroyed in her hands sooner or later.
