58. Candlelight Night Talk (3)

"Qiao'er, you should forgive your young lady and I have been sick in bed all the year round, and I really don't know some 'common sense', so I can't be blamed for this......"

Seeing Qiao'er looking like she wanted to laugh but couldn't hold back and didn't dare to laugh, Gao Ran hurriedly consciously found a reason for herself to sound reasonable.

It's just that, although she said so, Gao Ran's heart couldn't help but complain a few words about the original owner of this body, "Why did she only know that she only read sage books when she was alive, but she completely 'didn't hear anything outside the window'?!

"Hmm. ”

Listening to Gao Ran's self-comforting reasons, Qiao'er stopped smiling, but her eyes began to have a little sympathy when she looked at her......

"Qiao'er, don't look at me with that kind of sympathetic look! Miss Ben doesn't need your cheap sympathy!" Gao Ran just caught a glimpse of Qiao'er's eyes at the moment, and immediately snorted coldly angrily.

"Ahh......h......h

Gao Ran didn't expect Qiao'er's reaction to be so indifferent, and-" She...... She acquiesced!"

Thinking like this, Gao Ran suddenly felt extremely depressed, and suddenly felt like he had just "punched cotton"!

"You ......"

Gao Ran pointed at Qiao'er and wanted to say something, but her mouth was open for a long time, but she couldn't say a word in her heart-because she knew in her heart that what she was thinking was all unreasonable for her!

"Forget it! I don't remember the 'villain', so I won't care about you in general!"

A person is depressed for a while, contradictory for a while, and in the end, he has to find a step for himself......

When Gao Ran was "busy working" like this, Qiao'er on the side was always like "watching a play", looking at Gao Ran's expression with the corner of her eyes for a while, a moment of sadness, a moment of contradiction, and a moment of "huh" as if she had figured out something......

Qiao'er only thought, "Well, Miss is really a weird person—although it's much better than before......"

Thinking about it like this, Qiao'er's sympathy for Gao Ran unconsciously increased......

"Yes, yes, yes! Miss said yes! It's Qiao'er's mistake! Miss don't care...... Since Miss doesn't know the reason for this, then I'll carefully explain the reason to Miss Listen! Miss is not angry......

Because of the sympathy for Gao Ran in her heart, Qiao'er took the initiative to admit her "mistake", and coaxed Gao Ran softly to make her angry......

"You...... I ......"

In the face of Qiao'er's "good temper", Gao Ran was once again so angry that he pointed at Qiao'er, and then pointed at himself......

But in the end, he didn't say anything more, just reluctantly compromised, "Alas! Forget it! Just do what you think! Whatever you want! It doesn't matter, let's get to the point! Just tell me all the 'whys' you know!"

After being speechless for a while, Gao Ran suddenly realized that he was so childish just now, and he would care about such an innocuous trivial matter?!

She was amazed at her "regressive" Cheng Dù! She also sighed in her heart, "Sure enough, if you have been with someone for a long time, what kind of person will you become! It's really 'black who is close to ink'! After staying with a bunch of 'children' and old naughty children who are still very childish for a long time, I have begun to become so childish......

After realizing that she was childish, Gao Ran reluctantly made what she thought was a more rational choice - to compromise, let this boring "calculation" end here, and then redirect the topic back to something more valuable.

At the same time, she also subconsciously shook off the thoughts in her heart that made her feel a little shocked, readjusted her state, pulled her mind back to the present, and prepared to listen carefully to what Qiao'er was going to say next......

"Does Miss think that a girl like me, who was bought back by a big family to be a maid, would be inferior to those girls who were recognized as adopted daughters in terms of 'identity'?!"

"......" Gao Ran stared at Qiao'er silently for a long time, and only after making sure that there was no intention in her eyes that she didn't mind this matter at all, she let go of her courage and nodded affirmatively, "Hmm!"

As a result, Qiao'er couldn't help but laugh again.

However, this time, she just laughed a little, and immediately restrained.

Then, he consciously and patiently explained to Gao Ran, "Miss, you have misunderstood! Although we are 'maids', in Yunxiang Kingdom, our 'status and status' are the same as those of the 'adopted daughters' of ordinary people's families! After we reach the age of five, we also have the right to enter the academy to study. In the future, when we become adults, we can also take the "gentleman grade" and then go to the academy to become a gentleman - of course, if we have the strength...... It's just that, unlike those 'adopted daughters', we are not "young ladies", but "maids" who serve young ladies, and we go to the academy as a 'companion' for the young ladies we serve personally, and we enter the academy with the young ladies......

"Oh! I see! That's why the Academy will allow me to take you to the academy with me, and besides, the dormitory arranged for us by the academy is still the same! From the standpoint of the academy, you are not my 'maid', but accompany me to school as a 'companion'. On some kind of Cheng dù, you are still my 'classmate'!

"'Classmates' don't dare to be! However, the young lady understands correctly......

"I see! No wonder you are also the personal servants brought into the academy, only you can share the room with me, while the child next to Brother Tianyi can only go to live in the 'lower room', not share the room with him...... It turns out that there is a difference between men and women...... In this way, in the academy, you are considered a 'half student', and those male servants are still just 'servants'?!"

"Well, although we are 'maids', we are not 'subordinates' in the true sense of the word. We didn't sell ourselves, and we didn't sign any deeds of sale. And those male domestic servants all became domestic servants after selling themselves and signing the deed of sale. This will be recorded by the government! Therefore, unless they redeem their deed of sale one day, and then go to the government with the deed of sale to officially revoke their slavery, they can only be 'subordinates'. It's different from us maids. ”

"Oh......"

Hearing Qiao'er say this, Gao Ran remembered that when she was in Gaofu before, she and Qiao'er actually shared the same courtyard. It's just that she lives in the master room, and Qiao'er lives in the guest room next to her.

Thinking about this, Gao Ran felt that in fact, Qiao'er might be better off in material life than those "adopted daughters" - it's just that she has more responsibilities than those "adopted daughters", that is, to serve her as a young lady.

But if you think about it carefully, in the entire mansion, Qiao'er only needs to serve Gao Ran alone! Other rough and tiring work, unless Gao Ran personally orders, Qiao'er will order other male servants in the mansion to do......

Qiao'er is in Gaofu, in fact, she is almost like a "half miss"!

"In this way, however, you are not 'adopted daughters,' but you can enjoy a material life that may be better than those of those 'adopted daughters...... After all, you are not an 'adopted daughter' and you are not related to them by any kind, and they do not have your deed of sale there...... If one day you do leave, won't they just raise you for nothing?!"

Although the words were a little harsh, Gao Ran was just raising her confusion purely on a case-by-case basis.

And Qiao'er looked at Gao Ran's eyes at this moment, and knew that she was just asking her puzzlement, and had no other meaning.

After learning this, Qiao'er is not so sensitive. However, she also did not rule out that part of the reason why she was able to look at the question raised by Gao Ran so calmly was because the person who raised such a sharp question was none other than Gao Ran!

"They won't be afraid! Because when they ransomed us, the government had already recorded the files of each of us! Like those 'adopted daughters', we have the same surname as the family who took us. From now on, life is the person of this family, and death is the ghost of this family. And our descendants can only be the surname of this family, and like me, they are the 'property' of this family...... It's just that because there is no shortage of heirs in the family of the person who took us, we don't have any inheritance rights. However, even so, many of the material conditions that those 'adopted daughters' can enjoy, we can also enjoy, and even live better than them. ”

"Well?! So, you also have the surname 'Gao'?! I know it for the first time! Why didn't you tell me before?! I thought you only had a name, not a surname!"

After listening to what Qiao'er said, Gao Ran didn't know why, she always felt that she didn't feel very comfortable listening to these words! But she couldn't tell what made her hear it wrong?!

So, in order to avoid embarrassment, she had to avoid the important and trivial, and picked a more light topic at random, avoiding heavy words - anyway, even if she really pointed out the place that made her uncomfortable, I am afraid, it was not a problem that she could solve......
