Li Qingru was slightly stunned: "It's just saying something weird, but there were obviously no fireworks that day, but he said that tonight's fireworks are very beautiful, so I don't understand." ”

Shen Fengxu nodded slightly.

I think that Li Chengchuan should have noticed something unusual on Chinese New Year's Eve, but it is not known whether what he said was a matter in the Qin Tianjian Prison.

But the events of that night have passed, and there is no point in pursuing them any further.

Can......

Shen Fengxu was still curious about the fireworks in Li Chengchuan's mouth, so he thought about it for a while, and said: "Next time, if Miss Qingru is free, it is better to teach me to ride and shoot." ”

Li Qingru replied with a smile: "That's naturally good, but I'm afraid that Dongning Bofu has no place to practice riding and archery, so I want you to come to my house." ”

"Then thank you Miss Qingru. Shen Fengxu said, but he thought in his heart that next time he had the opportunity, he would definitely ask Li Chengchuan.

The two chatted in the room, and after chatting with Li Qingru for a while, Li Qingru also got up and left, and Shen Fengxu sent Li Qingru all the way to the door of the hanging flowers.

After Li Qingru left, after Shen Fengxu returned to the Snow Melting Courtyard, he noticed that there was an extra little girl in the courtyard, who was standing behind Dansha at this time, the whole person was thin and thin, petite, and looked docile and well-behaved.

Shen Fengxu raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "What's wrong?"

There are not many maids in Guiyun Courtyard, even if Shen Fengxu can't be named, at least they are all familiar, but this little girl in front of her should not be a person in Guiyun Courtyard.

Dansha told everything from before, and said, "Girl, the maid went to the embroidery yard today to get back the clothes she had cut before, but found that the clothes were embroidered with some begonia flowers. ”

Begonia flowers?Shen Fengxu frowned slightly: "Isn't that the pattern that Shen Yulou is used to, why is it embroidered on my clothes?" Although he said this, it was not a big deal in the end, and Shen Fengxu did not take it to heart.

"It's not that the people in the embroidery courtyard are ignorant. Dansha shook his head, and thought that the steward in the embroidery yard was so irresponsible, and suddenly felt a little annoyed, "The maid found out that something was wrong at the time, and the embroidery girls in the embroidery yard deduced that the pattern was given by the steward, and they just did what they were told, and the maid went to ask the steward, and the steward deduced that the steward who had returned to his hometown handed it to him, in short, it was to pass the buck to each other, and he didn't even admit a mistake, and the maid couldn't help them." ”

Shen Fengxu shook his head and said, "Since you have already made a mistake with the pattern, forget it, you just go and remind them, just don't let them do it again next time." ”

Left and right is not a big deal, not to mention that now that the second lady is in charge of the house, it is inevitable that there will be inconsiderate places, if you blame the people in the house for this, it will be too harsh.

"Yes, the maid has already done this, but there is one more thing ......" Dansha said, pulling Chunyi who was standing behind him over, and said, "All the embroiderers in the embroidery courtyard have embroidered the wrong pattern, but she is the only one who has not embroidered the wrong pattern." ”

Shen Fengxu set his eyes on Chunyi: "Really?"

Dansha nodded, then took out the pattern embroidered by Chunyi before, and said, "Girl, look." ”

Dansha unfolded the clothes in front of Shen Fengxu, only to see that there were different shades of pear blossoms blooming dots on it, the shades were appropriate, the color seemed to be stained on the clothes, and slowly blended and dissolved, the embroidery was exquisite and lifelike.

Shen Fengxu's eyes showed appreciation: "Very good." ”

This kind of embroidery is rare even in Dongningbo's mansion, not to mention that the girl in front of her does not look very old, but she has such exquisite skills, which is amazing.

The rest of the maids in Guiyun Courtyard also gathered around, admiring Chunyi's exquisite embroidery.

Hua Qing also came around: "It's a pity that such a good embroiderer is still in the embroidery yard." ”

Most of the skilled embroiderers will be promoted to be the maids of the inner courtyard, and the maids with exquisite embroidery like Chunyi should not be in the embroidery yard.

Shen Fengxu raised his eyes to look at Chunyi and asked, "What's your name?"

Chunyi hung her head and said in a low voice: "The maid's name is Chunyi, the spring of spring, a pleasant person." ”

"Oh, are you literate?"

Chunyi nodded: "The maid has read books for a few years before. ”

"Very nice. Shen Fengxu smiled slightly.

"Huh, Chunyi, I remember that I used to be a girl in Huanyi. Qingya blinked, "When the maid was still in Huanyi with Huaqing, she heard the name Chunyi, and it seemed to be a newcomer, but then the maid and Huaqing arrived in the snowmelt courtyard, so I don't know what happened later." ”

Chunyi bit her lip and said: "The maid was indeed a raccoon at the beginning, but later Steward Zhang felt that the maid's embroidery was acceptable, so he transferred the maid to the embroidery yard, and at that time Sister Qingya should have gone to the courtyard of the sixth girl." ”

Qingya nodded: "No wonder it felt familiar just now." ”

Dansha took advantage of this time to ask: "Girl, this girl's embroidery is so good, it is better to be promoted to the yard." ”

It's a very common thing.

If Shen Fengxu wants the maid in the house, just talk to the steward, such as Qingya and Huaqing, they all come to the courtyard like this, if Chunyi comes here, it will naturally not be troublesome.

What's more, Chunyi has such a superb embroidery, and is very well-behaved and sensible, so after Dansha asked, everyone thought that Shen Fengxu would agree, and Chunyi also raised his head to look at Shen Fengxu, with expectation in his eyes.

But Shen Fengxu refused without thinking about it: "No need, there is no shortage of embroiderers in the yard, and the embroidery workers of Qingya Huaqing are not bad." ”

Chunyi's expectant gaze dimmed for a moment, but she didn't say anything, just lowered her head and gently tightened her sleeve.

The rest of the servants were also stunned.

Hua Qing saw that Chunyi was so lonely, so she comforted her: "You don't have to be so lost, you are such a good embroiderer, and you are not bad in the embroidery courtyard." ”

Chunyi didn't answer, just bit her lower lip.

"Alright, Dansha, you take her to receive the reward, and then let her go back. Shen Fengxu said lightly, and as he spoke, he was about to turn around and leave.

But Dansha suddenly called Shen Fengxu and said, "Girl!"

Shen Fengxu stopped and turned his head to look at Dansha.

Dansha has never been a nosy person, except for Shen Fengxu's matter, Dansha doesn't want to pay attention to the rest of the miscellaneous matters, but it's probably that Chunyi is too pitiful, and people can't help but want to pity.

So Dansha said: "Girl, Chunyi is not well fed and clothed in the embroidery yard, and she is bullied, she has such a good embroiderer, why don't you leave her?"

Shen Fengsu couldn't help but feel a little strange, Dansha would actually speak for others? It can be seen that Dansha also looked at him with burning eyes, so Shen Fengsu smiled and said, "Okay, since that's the case, you can go and talk to the steward." ”

Dansha hurriedly said: "The maid will go now." So saying, he hurried out.

Chunyi stood in place, as if she was surprised by the sudden good news, and she didn't react for a long time, and when she reacted, she gave a big salute to Shen Fengxu and said, "Thank you for the girl's pity, the maid will do her best in the future and never let the girl down." ”

"Okay, you get up, go to the embroidery courtyard to pack up your things first, and then come to Guiyun Courtyard." Shen Fengxu said, waved his hand, and turned around and went back to the bedroom.

......

In Guiyun Temple, when it was a little late.

Shen Fengxu held a book in his hand, flipped through a few pages, and suddenly asked casually: "Is Chunyi settled now?"

Dansha nodded: "It's already settled, she now lives in the room on the north side." ”

Hearing this, Shen Fengxu put down the book in his hand and said, "In that case, you go and call Chunyi, and I'll have a few words with her." ”

Although Dansha wondered why Shen Fengxu was interested in Chunyi, he didn't say much, but turned around and called Chunyi.

But in a moment, Chunyi came in.

Shen Fengxu didn't look up at Chunyi, but still looked at the book in his hand, and when he heard Chunyi ask for peace, he said, "Get up." ”

Although he said this, he still didn't look up at Chunyi, but still looked at the book in his hand.

Chunyi stood quietly to the side and didn't say a word.

Shen Fengxu didn't deliberately embarrass Chunyi, but he didn't trust Chunyi a little, there weren't many people in Shen Fengxu's yard, but except for Cai He, the rest of the people were people that Shen Fengxu could trust.

The Snow Melting Courtyard was burned down before, but no one was injured because of it, so now the people in the Guiyun Courtyard are all brought by Shen Fengxu from the Snow Melting Courtyard, and they are all people who know the roots.

Only Chunyi is not.

Therefore, Shen Fengxu had the intention to test Chunyi.

At this time, the room was silent.

Shen Fengxu slowly flipped through the book, only the occasional sound of turning the pages came, and Chun Yi stood there with his head down, motionless.

The atmosphere was slightly oppressive.

And Shen Fengxu finished reading the last page of the book in his hand, and then slowly put the book on the table, raised his head and looked at Chunyi.

Although Chun Yi lowered his head, he seemed to feel the gaze from Shen Fengxu, and his body trembled slightly, but he still stood firm.

Only then did Shen Fengxu ask slowly, "Where are you from?"

"The maid is from Anzhou. Chunyi replied.

"Where's your father?"

Speaking of this, Chunyi's head lowered: "My father is a teacher in a private school, and my mother is an embroidery girl in Anzhou Embroidery Workshop." ”

"Oh?" Shen Fengxu was a little strange, "So, your family background should be pretty good, so how did you become a servant?"

Mr. Teaching's restraint should be quite rich, Chun Yi is a pure white family, so why sell himself as a servant.

"When my father was teaching in a private school, he accidentally offended the eldest son of the governor of Anzhou, and then he was made difficult in every way......" Speaking of this, Chunyi's tone became very desolate and sad, as if a little ice floe was finely broken, shocking, "Because of this, the maid's family was ruined, and was later sold to Yaxing, drifted all the way to the capital, and was sold to Dongningbo's mansion." ”

Shen Fengxu asked some more questions carefully, and Chun Yi answered them all without leakage, and said her past life experience word for word, without a trace of loopholes.

Shen Fengxu asked, and then said, "Okay, you go back and rest." ”

But Chunyi didn't leave, she took a step forward, knelt in front of Shen Fengxu, and said word by word: "The maid knows that she is new to the city, and the sixth girl doesn't trust the maid, but the maid has no second heart for the girl, and she never has any thoughts that are unfavorable to the girl, so please rest assured." ”

Shen Fengxu smiled: "Why are you like this? Get up quickly, I'm just asking a routine question, you are such a smart, meek and well-behaved girl, who doesn't like it? Go back quickly." ”

Seeing Shen Fengxu say this, Chun Yi was a little relieved, stood up, and said, "The servant retires." ”

Seeing that Chunyi retreated, Yun Wan stood up and said, "There should be no problem with this girl." ”

She also listened to the conversation between Shen Fengxu and Chunyi, and only felt that Chunyi was too miserable, she was an innocent girl, but her family was suddenly ruined, she was sold into a dental shop, and became a servant, and now after entering Dongningbo's Mansion, she was also bullied in the embroidery courtyard, which was really unbearable.

Shen Fengxu shook his head lightly and said, "I don't think so. ”

Yun Wan couldn't help but be surprised: "How do you say this?"

Even if Chunyi really had any different intentions, judging from the performance just now, there was no problem, how did Shen Fengxu see it?

Shen Fengxu said lightly: "If I suddenly ask about your life experience, can you answer it so quickly?"

Yun Wan was stunned for a moment, and hesitated: "This ......"

It's not that he can't answer, but even if he answers, he has to think about it a little, at least recall, but Chunyi seems to have memorized it, as long as Shen Fengxu asks, he will answer without lag.

Yun Wan didn't feel anything wrong just now, but when Shen Fengxu said this, she also vaguely felt a little strange.

"That's right, this girl hasn't been in contact with you since she came to Dongningbo Mansion, but she knows that you like pear blossoms, and even the other embroiderers in the embroidery courtyard don't know. Yun Wan also showed a thoughtful look.

Shen Fengxu nodded and said, "That's good, so I'm going to trouble you to keep an eye on her later." ”

"Good. Yun replied.

......

Chunyi lived in Guiyun Courtyard for a while.

On this day, Chunyi was walking out with embroidered cloth in his arms, and when he walked to the edge of the flower forest, he was suddenly stopped by a person.

Chunyi turned around, but he didn't see anyone, only a voice came from the flower forest: "You can see me when you walk in." ”

Chunyi probably heard who the speaker was, so he didn't hesitate, and walked in with the embroidered cloth.

After pushing the flowering forest, I saw a person standing in the flowering forest.

Chunyi said: "Sister Qingyi, what's wrong?"

The person standing in the flower forest is none other than Gardenia.

Qing Yu pursed her lips, her expression was a little cold, and said, "You have been in the Guiyun Courtyard for so long, why haven't you come to me?"

Chunyi shook her head and said, "The sixth girl is cautious, she has been on guard against the maid, and the maid doesn't dare to show any flaws, so naturally she doesn't dare to come to see Miss Qingyu." ”

Qing Yu frowned and said, "That's it, let's not talk about this, you tell me first, what are the habits of the sixth girl on weekdays?"

Chunyi thought for a moment and said, "The six girls have been on guard against the maid, and the maid has never had the opportunity to contact the six girls. ”
