Chapter 258: The Girl Who Sharpens Ink
After all, okra was reluctantly dragged away by Qiu Nongxin, and when he was ready, he looked back at Lin Nuannuan, who had long been gone.
She thought to herself: No wonder Qiu Ju likes to see beauties, as far as she is concerned, Xu Shizi is really a rare character.
Qiuqu has also seen Xue Shizi, and Xue Shizi is slightly better in terms of appearance. But if you want Qiuqu to say, this Xu Shizi is more outstanding.
She and Okra followed the master to read and write, but they didn't remember it, only Zhong Lingyuxiu, outstanding demeanor and other words, Okra firmly remembered it. Okra thinks that Xu Siyuan can deserve both words!
Okra actually knows that she is a little unpopular now, but she is also very aggrieved.
Now that the master of the Lin Mansion has changed, he can no longer be coquettish in front of Lin Er's grandmother as before, and he no longer needs her to be so idle and funny.
After all, Miss is still young and needs to be as attentive and considerate as okra. Old Madam Lin is such a noble person, she doesn't dare to lean forward at all, and she can't rely on it.
Chunyi now has a lot of face in front of Mrs. Lin and her own young lady, Xia Lu has become a family, Holly is missing, and a few big girls, she is the only one left.
She is also old now, and she is no longer the youngest among the few maids who needs to be taken care of! Qiu Qu knows that all she can rely on is her own young lady!
Originally, she still thought that when Miss came back, she would be the first person next to Miss, not to mention those little girls, just a few older ones who could already walk and let go.
But who knew that since Miss returned to Jiangnan, in addition to the perilla and Qiuyue that Mrs. Lin brought with her, there were more okra and autumn chrysanthemums by Miss's side!
At first, Qiuqu was still complacent, thinking that this was the lady's unique affection for herself, so she named several maids after her.
But who would have thought that after a few years, she is still the same as in the past, but that okra has become the first person next to the young lady!
There are some private things, the young lady just told okra, and even more so, these little girls below actually take okra very seriously!
Qiuqu is also very helpless, she herself is seven years older than Miss, and Grandma Lin Er has nothing to do in the early years, and she likes children very much. Qiuqu was young at the time, and he was lively, which was very pleasing to Grandma Lin.
Therefore, although she is young, she is arranged according to spring, summer, autumn, and winter, Li Qingqian relies on spring, but he treats her as a child, and later has a young lady, so he gave her to the young lady. How do you know that now you are not as good as an outsider!
"Sister, if you are lighter, the ink will be splashed everywhere!" Qiu Nong glanced at the ink sprinkled everywhere and whispered to Qiu Qu.
Qiu Nong thought to himself: "I don't know what's wrong with Sister Qiuqu, I was just a little anxious before." I'm always distracted today, so I can't be sick!"
She hurriedly probed Qiuqu's head with her hand, and when she saw that the tentacles were warm, she was relieved.
Qiu Nong breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly: "Sister, let's help Miss tidy up this on the table, as for grinding, let's let Yuan'er come!"
The maid who was called Yuan'er by Qiu Nong was only transferred to the study.
She is also a clever person, knowing that Qiu Qu is in a bad mood, she hurriedly smiled a pair of single eyelids into a crooked crescent shape, revealing two sharp tiger teeth: "Sister should rest, just let Yuan'er study ink! Where are you doing this kind of rough work, why don't I go and make you and Sister Qiu Nong a cup of tea?"
Qiu Nong secretly praised in her heart, this girl has a little bit of eyes, just a few words, she turned Qiu Qu's anger into joy, but she is also a person with some ability, unlike herself.....
Qiu Nong looked at his thick hands and feet, and then at Qiu Qu's fair skin with thick eyebrows and big eyes, which looked very lively and pretty.
Alas! Qiu Nong narrowed his little eyes, he was really inferior to people everywhere!
She sighed, no longer thinking about these things, and saw that Yuan'er put down the ink strip in her hand and was about to pour tea for the two of them, and hurriedly said: "Okay, don't be busy, Miss may be coming over, don't be in a hurry then." ”
Yuan'er glanced at Qiuqu gratefully, and went to get busy.
It's no wonder that Qiu Nong said this, although his own master is very generous to his subordinates, but this study is easy not to be touched except for a few of their big girls.
What the master has let go, others cannot mess with or mess around. In addition, it is necessary to be neat.
In the past, this work was all done by okra, but it wasn't until Xue Shizi sent Yuan'er over that okra stopped.
Qiu Nong felt that Xue Shizi was really good to Miss, a few years ago, Miss and the old lady were not in good health, Xue Shizi came over once a year, and the back Miss was in good health, I heard that Xue Shizi and the Four Princes had been busy repairing the embankment, so they didn't come over, but the annual festival ceremony, food, clothing, and use were all packed up!
"Cousin Xu, please inside!"
Just when Qiuqu and Qiunong were helping Yuan'er clean up, Lin Nuannuan's voice came from outside, Qiuqu hurriedly took the ink strip that Yuan'er was holding in his hand again, and said excitedly: "Yuan'er, you've been busy for so long, let's rest for a while!
Yuan'er blinked her eyes, opened her mouth and was about to say something, but was pushed aside by Qiu Qu, she couldn't help but glance at Qiu Qu, and saw Qiu Qu's eyes shining and glanced at the door, pursed her lips, stuffed the scattered broken hair behind her head, and straightened her clothes, then took the ink strip and stood on the edge of the table and waited.
Yuan'er didn't squeak either, and just followed Qiu Nong and stood by the door.
After a while, he heard the footsteps of the masters, Qiu Nong glanced at Qiu Qu, and didn't have time to say anything more, he hurriedly lowered his head and gave a few blessings to Lin Nuannuan, and called in his mouth: "Fourth Miss!"
Okra seemed to have just discovered it, and hurriedly put down the ink strip in his hand, a red cloud rose on her pretty face, and she shouted happily: "Miss!"
Without waiting for Lin Nuannuan to speak, she had already hurriedly skipped her gaze and turned to Xu Siyuan next to Lin Nuannuan, and shouted sweetly between her lips and teeth: "Qiuqu has seen Xu Shizi!"
Lin Nuannuan raised her eyebrows and didn't say anything. Just looked at okra with a smirk.
Okra understood, frowned, quickly let go, walked over with a smile, hugged Qiuqu affectionately and said, "I actually want to work sister, you personally grind the ink, it's really tired." Let's let Yuan'er come, let's go and prepare some refreshments for Miss and Xu Shizi!"
Qiuqu frowned, and a trace of indignation immediately appeared on Mingli's pretty face: "It's better to go and prepare for okra, my hand that just took the ink strip can't touch those vulgar things!"
Okra couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer Qiuqu's words.
"Haha, cousin Nuan, the maid next to you is so elegant, it can be seen that although you are young, you are also a very elegant person!"
Xu Siyuan followed Lin Nuannuan silently along the way, and Lin Nuannuan didn't say a word to him.
Now I see that the maid next to Lin Nuannuan has thick eyebrows and big eyes, she looks like a cheerful person, and her speech is so interesting, she is only favored on weekdays, and she is busy joking.
Lin Nuannuan nodded without looking at it, and then looked at Qiuqu, who was flushed, and was secretly surprised in his heart: "Could it be that spring is coming, and the minds of these young boys and girls are moving?"
Okra saw that the smile on her young lady's face began to lighten, and knew that she was angry.
But she has always been a dignified person, Qiu Qu's words, she really didn't know how to take it, she couldn't help but regret it a little, she had already let Qiu Ju look at Qiu Qu, Qiu Nong was still too honest.
