Chapter 444: Oiran, the girl in the peony garden

Mo Xuetong is in the peony garden that I went to two days apart!

At this time, it is not the season when the peony is in full bloom, and no one outside says that the peony prince came to Qindu, so there is no one at the gate, and Mo Xuetong's carriage entered the door directly.

After getting out of the car, her own mother-in-law came to take care of the carriage, and a grandmother on this side of the door came over, saw Mo Xuetong, smiled and saluted: "I have seen the princess Niangniang, Your Royal Highness said that you are coming, and specially let the old slave serve the princess." ”

Most people here only know the peony boy, but they don't know that the peony boy is Feng Jue Ran, this should be Feng Jue Ran's henchman Yang Mama!

Mo Xuetong smiled and nodded: "There is Mama Lao Yang!"

"Where did the princess say, since His Royal Highness ordered the old slave to guard here, the old slave should do his best, Miss Cairong lives in the garden over there, and the princess wants to go over and take a look now?"

Mo Xuetong's purpose here is to see this former Oiran girl, Cairong girl!

"Let's go now!"

"Yes, the old slave will take the princess over. ”

Mama Yang, who led the way, went inside with Mo Xuetong, turned a door, and came to a simple and elegant courtyard, three upper rooms, with five side rooms, not much, but it looked neat, a row of flowers and trees at the door, some of them were blooming, and the strong branches were revealing bright colors, which had a different feeling.

There is some flamboyance in the masculinity, which is really different from the ordinary garden.

"The prince used to live here?" Mo Xuetong frowned and asked, suddenly feeling a little unhappy in her heart.

"His Royal Highness has his own main garden, this is just a side garden, there are visitors to entertain them, but usually they don't come, since this Cairong girl lived in, His Royal Highness has never come. "An old lady like Mama Yang is very shrewd and capable, and she immediately tasted a little meaning from Mo Xuetong's words, and explained with a smile.

Looking at Mama Yang's smiling face, Mo Xuetong's face flushed, and she sighed uncomfortably.

"Mama Yang, who is this?" With a hesitant voice, Mo Xuetong turned her head dumbly, and saw a woman about twenty years old standing at the gate of the courtyard, very beautiful, with a pair of big watery eyes, looking forward to life, coquettish lips, pitiful, really worthy of the Oiran lady.

It's just that these eyes make Mo Xuetong feel so strange, this woman is obviously the first time they have met, but I don't know why they are a little familiar, as if they have seen it somewhere.

The smart eyes turned, and he looked the woman up and down.

Mo Xuetong turned her head to the side, and the woman's eyes involuntarily fell on Mo Xuetong's face, and she immediately felt that her eyes were bright, although the girl in front of her was only dressed in plain and elegant clothes, clear as a bend of spring water, her small face was as tender as a snow, and she was as beautiful as a porcelain doll.

Mama Yang had already received Mo Xuetong's instructions, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Miss Cairong, this is Princess Xuan is the one who takes care of the peony garden for the peony prince, when the prince is rarely there, please ask Princess Xuan, you can also tell the princess if you have any needs in the future." ”

This turned out to be Princess Xuan? No wonder she was so beautiful that she didn't dare to slack off, Cai Rong hurriedly came over to greet her: "See Princess Niangniang!"

"Miss Cairong doesn't need to be polite, but I came in a hurry today to disturb Miss Cairong. Mo Xuetong smiled slightly, restrained the doubts in her eyes, and said politely.

"It's a matter of disturbing there, Cai Rong herself is also a guest living here, and she will have to trouble the princess in the future, and I hope the princess will help. Cai Rong looked a little uneasy, but with a gentle voice, she did not have the flashiness of an ordinary Qinglou woman between her eyebrows, and her dress was also very light, very much like the wife of a large family.

If Mo Xuetong didn't know her identity, she wouldn't have imagined that she was the extremely prestigious Oiran lady.

"Miss Cairong, the princess came to see it for the first time, and there are no people living in other gardens, so please trouble Miss Cairong to entertain the princess, okay?" Mama Yang smiled.

"Mama said that, if the princess doesn't like Cairong, Cairong should invite the princess to come in and sit. Cai Rong smiled softly.

"Then it's a nuisance girl. Mo Xuetong was not polite, gave in slightly, and followed behind Cai Rong, holding Mo Lan's hand and walking inside.

The original intention of her coming today was this Oiran, before, she still didn't understand why Feng Jueran brought this Oiran to the peony garden, but at this time, she faintly understood, since this matter is related to Feng Jueran, and it is the matter of the woman in the house, Feng Jueran is inconvenient to come forward, so it is best to ask herself.

I made up my mind, and my face became more and more impassive.

The two of them went to sit down together, Cai Rong served tea, stood respectfully to the side, Mo Xue Tong said with a smile: "Miss Cai Rong, please sit down too." ”

Cai Rong knew that she was from a humble background, where she dared to sit, but she couldn't help Mo Xuetong to be polite again and again, so she had to sit on the edge of the chair on the side.

"Where is Miss Cairong?" asked Mo Xuetong with a gentle smile.

"I'm from Jiangnan, I don't know where it is, it's said to be an orphan. Cai Rong smiled bitterly, her eyes flashed a touch of sourness, she grew up in the Qinglou since she was a child, tasted the bitterness and warmth of the world, from serving the popular prostitute, where is there any life experience to speak of, humble as the soil under her feet.

Now in her twenties, in fact, she is the age of the old pearl yellow, although she is still an oiran, but the building is relatively strong, this time inexplicably brought here by the mysterious peony boy, she has actually been in a state of panic, inexplicably two people fought for her, and it was inexplicable that after living here, she didn't even meet a master.

This situation is really weird, finally a noble princess appeared here, Cai Rong is actually more willing to go with this princess, at least this seems to be very kind, and there is no malice towards her, and when she looks at her, there is no contempt in her eyes, she has seen a lot of human feelings and warmth, Cai Rong and this feeling is very keen.

"Miss Cairong can't remember her own parents, and she has no influence on her biological mother at all?" Mo Xuetong looked at Cairong and said softly.

"Wandering, I heard that when I was young, someone once came to see me, saying that it was an old servant of my family, and then I slowly lost my news, thinking that I didn't know what was going on, and when I grew up and understood the reason, no one ever came, so it had no effect on my biological mother. ”

Cai Rongqiang pulled out a smile and replied.

There is no life experience, and the news is also slim, since the governor has not known his parents, relatives and friends, and fell into the Qinglou, this Cairong girl's life experience is really pitiful, it seems that this matter is still in a hurry, and it is necessary to visit it slowly.

"What is Miss Cairong going to do next?" Mo Xuetong smiled, her eyes were as clear as water, even if she was a person like Cairong who was used to looking at people's faces, she couldn't see the meaning of Mo Xuetong's words, thinking that Mo Xuetong was going to drive her away, she couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly stood up and said: "Princess, can you ask the princess to take me in, I can be a slave and a maid." ”

"Aren't you going back over there, I heard you're still an Oiran?" Mo Xue asked, looking at Cai Rong with bright eyes.

"What about the Oiran, she is not a prostitute, she is old, but she is worthless, Cai Rong has been rescued by Li Gongzi, and she no longer has the idea of going back, she just wants to live in peace and security. Cai Rong's eyes were sad, and she looked at Mo Xuetong earnestly, and suddenly her knees were weak, and she was about to kneel.

Mo Ye, who had been paying attention to her, hurriedly pulled her up, smiled and comforted her: "Miss Cairong, don't worry, our princess just asks you what you think, besides, it is the peony prince who let you live in, and our princess is also a guest now, and she will not drive you away, you can live as long as you like." ”

Cai Rong's expression was a little more stable when she said this.

"Miss Cairong heard that you have a jade pendant, can you let me see it?" After Cairong sat down again, Mo Xuetong said softly.

Cai Rong was shocked when she said this, her hand subconsciously touched her chest, and she moved uneasily, but with a flash of determination in her eyes, she wanted to be a normal person, or this was the only chance, reached out to unbutton a button on her neckline, and pulled out a red thread from it, and the other end of the red thread was tied with a clear green pendant.

"Princess, this is Cairong's jade pendant, if the princess likes it, she will give it to the princess, just ask the princess to take Cairong. Cai Rong did not hesitate to pull off the red thread in her hand, and respectfully sent the jade pendant that was still with residual warmth to Mo Xuetong.

Jade is good jade, such a good jade, even in the capital is rare!

The body is turquoise, revealing some luster and soft luster.

Even if it is placed in an ordinary family, it can be called a family heirloom.

Mo Xuetong looked at it attentively, waved her hand and smiled: "Miss Cairong doesn't have to be like this, put it away, I'm just curious, this kind of jade looks more like a family heirloom, how did Miss Cairong get it?"

"I have been hanging on my body since I was a child, and I was later found by my mother and taken away, and when Cai Rong grew up, I redeemed it from my mother, and then I have been in Cai Rong's hands. Cai Rong's eyes were dim, although the words were simple, but in fact, there was such a simple thing, after the ups and downs of her previous life, Mo Xuetong was not superficial in her eyes.

"What will Miss Cairong do?" Mo Xuetong suddenly changed the topic and asked with a smile.

Mo Xuetong's words turned too fast for a while, and Cai Rong turned a few thoughts before she understood what Mo Xuetong meant, and said with some excitement: "I can cook, and I can also do some female work, even rough work is also made." ”

Mo Xue Tong glanced at Mo Lan, Mo Lan immediately understood, took two steps forward and said to Cai Rong with a smile: "Sister Cai Rong, are you willing to help us sew some small items such as clothes and sachets?"

Cai Rong Xi had tears in the corners of her eyes, looked at Mo Xue Tong gratefully, and was about to kneel down and kowtow to her, Mo Lan smiled and pulled her and said: "Sister Cai Rong, don't thank the princess first, there will be more places to trouble you in the future, you will live in the peony garden first, and wait for the princess to take everything in the house in order, and then take you back, anyway, at this time and a half, the princess will often come here, with you here, it is more convenient for us, even if it is to drink tea or something, there are people!"

The people in the room who said this all laughed, and Cai Rong also showed a sincere smile on her face, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and sincerely gave Mo Xue Tong a blessing, only to take back the jade pendant in Mo Xue Tong's excuse, and carefully re-hung it around her neck.
