Ch.15 entered the house as a maid
Akagi, Prime Minister's House. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's as lively and bustling as ever, and the streets are bustling with people. The only difference is that today is the day when the Prime Minister's Mansion is looking for a new group of slaves and maidservants.
The eunuchs always like to train some young children as domestic servants, so that not only is the net worth innocent, but the loyalty is also guaranteed.
And today, it is the Prime Minister's Mansion of Hong Qiguo to recruit maid scholars, not to mention the high treatment here, if it can be favored by several young masters of the Prime Minister's family, then it will really fly on the sparrow and become a phoenix.
At this time, there was a side gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, lined up with a long snake-shaped dragon, and the tail could not be seen in the bend. There were no less than dozens of servants used to maintain order alone.
Directly opposite the side entrance, there is a house with a miscellaneous pavilion that is the place where the students are enrolled.
Inside the room, a middle-aged man with a notebook raised his head.
"How old are you?"
The middle-aged man has a thin face, high cheekbones, and a pair of small eyes that reveal a shrewd eye.
And this person is the butler of Sun Dian, who has contributed most of his life to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"I ...... I'm ...... this year" The woman who was asked was a little nervous and skimmed the notice board on the side.
On a piece of rice paper, it is clearly written in black ink that the age is under fifteen, and the age of six to ten is preferred.
"I'm fifteen years old."
Steward Sun looked up and down, this woman seemed to have been married to a woman for many years, how could she be fifteen years old.
"Get out! What age can you be here! ”
Steward Sun shouted angrily, and the frightened woman trembled, and then was dragged away by the servants on the side crying.
"Next!" Steward Sun shouted angrily.
Steward Sun also endured a day's anger today. There are all kinds of people who come to sell themselves, this is not bad, and there is one who wants to send his own children in, and he will also follow in, which is called taking care of children. What's more, he came here and said that he had been ruined by the little boy, and he didn't seek fame, but only wanted to serve by the little master's side.
The little master is only five years old this year! I can't even write all the words of men and women, where can I seduce the little girl? Besides, even if a five-year-old child kisses his face, it can't be regarded as ruining his reputation, isn't this nonsense?
"Your Excellency?"
Standing in front of Steward Sun was a plainly dressed woman leading a crying little girl.
Steward Sun frowned and glanced at the child. The little girl is only five or six years old, and her eyebrows and eyes are delicate, which is pleasing to the eyes. It's not bad if you put this child next to the little master as a maidservant.
"Are you going to bring in a child of this age?"
"My lord, isn't there no way? The child's father went a few years ago, and there was no pillar at home, and life was hard. No, there is a fairly good person who says that he has taken a fancy to me, and everything is fine, but he doesn't agree with me taking my child over. Our mother and wife have no support, and we don't have any relatives, and we can't really buy our children to human traffickers, right? It just so happened that the Prime Minister's Mansion was recruiting a maidservant, so he sent the child here. People say that the treatment of the Prime Minister's Mansion is good, and he never treats the servants badly, so I can rest assured as a mother. ”
The woman opened her mouth and spoke through the horn, and then she was stained with tears.
Steward Sun looked at the woman's words, and the more he listened to them, the more she looked like a human trafficker.
If you count this today, there are exactly five, and it is convenient to escort the official office.
Steward Sun didn't look at the woman, but turned his face to the little girl.
"Don't be afraid, girl, what's your name?"
"I ...... My name is Zhang Baihua. The little girl replied with a sob.
"So, who is this person next to you?"
"I ......," the little girl burst into tears after saying only one word.
Steward Sun thought to himself, yes, another trafficker.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, the little girl hugged the woman tightly and cried.
"Mother! Don't you leave Xiaobai behind, okay! Xiaobai must be obedient, don't cause trouble, be a good baby! Mother! I can't do without Xiaobai! ”
Steward Sun couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.
He has seen a lot of this scene, but he has not been able to practice a hard-hearted heart.
Steward Sun walked up to the little girl, squatted down, and touched her head.
"Okay, good, Xiaobai doesn't leave his mother. But your uncle has something to say to your mother, how about letting the brother over there take you to play with a child as big as you? ”
Hearing Steward Sun's words, the little girl stopped crying, looked at him with big red eyes, and pouted, "Are you just going to play?" ”
"Well, that's right, just to play. There are also many delicious ones over there, such as osmanthus cake crescent crispy kidney bean rolls...... There's a lot to eat. ”
Steward Sun made an exaggerated expression as she spoke, and the little girl saw that the old face that should have only been serious and mean showed a childish expression with a sense of disparity, and instantly burst into laughter.
"Then you will go with this brother first, okay?" Steward Sun said as he beckoned a servant beside him.
The little girl sniffed, then nodded. He reluctantly glanced at the woman, and was then pulled away by the servant.
Then Steward Sun asked the woman a few questions, and finally the woman pressed her fingerprint, received a few pieces of broken silver, and then gratefully withdrew.
When the woman left the Prime Minister's Mansion, her face suddenly smiled, and she counted the broken silver in her hand, so what was the sadness and bitterness just now?
"Tsk, it's just so much for just one trip, and the treatment of the Prime Minister's Mansion is really good. That girl should be able to mix well in the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
The woman is so happy today, how could she have thought that a five-year-old child would take the initiative to find herself and let herself "sell" her into the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the "money from the sale" was returned to herself, this thing is really a pie falling from the sky.
That's right, this little girl who sold herself into the Prime Minister's Mansion is Chong Xiaobai, who arrived in Chicheng not long ago.
When he first arrived here, Chong Xiaobai was still worried about what he was going to do, but he didn't expect that when he looked up, there was a notice from the Prime Minister's Mansion to recruit domestic servants. For the first time, Chong Xiaobai felt that his luck was very good.
The servant led her to a room.
"Mother Liu, bring another child."
Hearing Mother Liu, Chong Xiaobai looked up at the woman as if she had been electrocuted, but found that it was not as she imagined, and couldn't help but bow her head in frustration.
That's right, Mother Liu, it's not that Liu.
"This kid looks like he's only five or six years old, which father and mother are so ruthless. Look at this child crying, it can't be sold by human traffickers, right? ”
Mother Liu trotted all the way over and took Chong Xiaobai's hand.
Chong Xiaobai silently said in his heart, he will never wipe his eyes with an onion in this life!
"What are you talking about, Mother Liu, don't you still trust Steward Sun? This child was still holding her mother just now and wouldn't let go. The servant said, "In this way, Mother Liu, you are busy." I'll go back to Steward Sun's side. ”
"Eh, go, go, go." Liu's mother responded.
When the servants left, Mother Liu pulled Chong Xiaobai to the courtyard.
"Kid, what's it called?"
"Zhang ......" Chong Xiaobai just wanted to open his mouth to report the fake name, but then he thought about it and shook his head, "My name is Xiaobai." ”
"Well, that's right. That ruthless mother doesn't want us anymore, what is the use of this surname. ”
Mother Liu chattered all the way, but Chong Xiaobai didn't feel annoyed, and had a good impression of this mother Liu with different sounds, and her big grinning attitude was not as old and calculating as the maid in charge of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but was more like a few aunts in the east of Liujia Village.
Chong Xiaobai's words to Liu's mother were summed up by nothing more than to appease Chong Xiaobai, and also said some things that Chong Xiaobai should pay attention to here.
“…… It's not as good as the outside, not only is there a mess of contention above, but it's also a mess below. I just hope that you will grow up quickly and not let the people above use it as guns. Well, this is it, and that's where you'll be from now on. Mother Liu stopped, looked at the row of maids' rooms and said, "Yezi! Come out! ”
After Liu's mother finished speaking, a crisp female voice answered inside.
Leaf? Chong Xiaobai suddenly felt that the name was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember it.
After a while, a little girl in a blue maid's costume walked out. The young goose egg had a smile on her face, and her eyes were full of cleverness.
"What's wrong with Liu's mother? Another one? Huh? No, it's so small. Ye Zi was a little surprised, "It looks a few years younger than Xiao Jing's girl." ”
"It's not, I thought Xiao Jing's would be very pitiful without her father, but I didn't expect that it would be better to have a father and mother than to have a father." Mother Liu pulled Chong Xiaobai a step forward, "This is your Sister Ye, she will take care of you in the future, do you know?" ”
Chong Xiaobai glanced at Ye Zi timidly, and shouted Sister Ye Zi, but he was shocked in his heart.
She remembered that when Yu Zhu entered the Zhengyang Sect, she was accompanied by two little maids with good qualifications. One is Xianglan, a personal big girl who has been with Yu Zhu since she was a child, and the other is the little girl in front of her, Ye Zi, who looks no more than twelve or thirteen.
Chong Xiaobai has also seen Ye Zi a few times, and she is a clever and smart little girl. The most impressive time was when she secretly stuffed a few low-level Yuan Qi Pills into her hands. At that time, Chong Xiaobai was disfigured, and his life in the sect was not satisfactory.
"I'm sorry, although my young lady is kind-hearted, she doesn't think about things very well. The Yuan Qi Pill just remembered and asked me to send it to you, cultivate well, don't let the bullying go. ”
But Chong Xiaobai knew that those low-level Yuan Qi Pills were Ye Zi's own. Yu Zhu would not think of such a small thing.
But what happened to Ye Zi later was not good. She heard from several senior sisters of Zhengyang Sect that Yu Zhu and his party went out on a mission, but they got into trouble with another powerful monster, and the monster mistook the leaf for Yu Zhu, and when he died, he was pierced by the monster on the stake, and there was not a single strand on his body, and half of his head was gnawed off by the monster, and his death was extremely miserable.
And after that incident, Yu Zhu was stimulated to build a foundation directly and became a monk in the foundation building period.
Later, although Yu Zhu avenged the leaves, he couldn't get back the leaves that died tragically.
After chatting a few words, Ye Zi separated from Mother Liu, led the child into the maid's room, assigned her a bed, and told her a few words to rest well, and tomorrow Steward Sun came back to choose the little master's maidservant, and left.
I don't know if it's her delusion, Ye Zi always feels that the child's eyes look at her like gratitude and pity, it is a very complicated vision, and Ye Zi can't say it specifically, but she thinks that this kind of vision should not appear in a five-year-old child.
Sure enough, was it too much hurt from my father?
She must remember to unravel this child well, and don't go astray like Sister Hanako.
