Suddenly, like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloom. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

In the winter of Ninghai City, it often snows, and the snowflakes cover the city walls and eaves, looking at it from a distance, it is pure white, as if you are in a bright world, and it is like a cluster of pear blossoms blooming, exuding the smell of spring.

When the winter is gone, the pear blossoms are really in full bloom in the spring breeze from west to east, and Ninghai City will be immersed in the sea of flowers, which still looks pure white, but unlike a few months ago, there are more and more pedestrians on the road.

On the wharf next to the Huai River, merchant ships began to move towards all parts of the empire, transporting the products of the year, either paying tribute or selling, and some merchant ships docked at the wharf of Ninghai City, and the shipwrights moved their goods in unison with their bare arms. Most of the merchants, liquor shops and tea shops are also lively, and when the new year opens, the sound of shouting and selling resounds through the streets in the warm breeze. There are still many people coming and going in places like Qinglou, every night is lit up, the girls and mothers are wearing light makeup and standing at the door to greet the guests, and there are often some strong poems coming out of the building, which is the wind and snow that belongs to the talents.

After the first day of the year, spring has indeed arrived, and the weeping willows have budded and begun to stretch out branches like the slender arms of a girl on both sides of the Huai River, gently crossing the water, swinging a circle and shallow ripples. On both sides of the Huai River, pear blossoms and peach blossoms are in full bloom, pink and red, thick aromatic herbs, and slightly moist fragrance of flower dew, mixed together, never pungent, but have a wonderful feeling of relaxation.

Sometimes when the wind blows, the whole city will float up pieces of dandelions, and the soft branches and leaves will expand and contract, flying in the air, bringing Ninghai City into a blur and dream.

And on such a warm spring day, a small thing happened in Luofu, which is located in the alley of Donglin in the inner city.

Luofu is the place where Su Sheng'er goes every day, and although Donglin Alley is in the inner city, the inner and outer cities are connected, so the Donglin Alley also happens to be close to the place where Su Sheng'er lives, and the girl doesn't spend much time going over every day.

On this day, she entered Luofu as usual, and walked around the courtyard in a series of nine winds towards the kitchen, preparing lunch and dinner for the owner of Luofu was probably what she had to do for a day. Although it sounds very easy, it is not so easy to really do, the taste of the master of Luofu is very picky, although it is a merchant family with no big status, but it has been accumulated for several generations, and the enjoyment of life is still extremely high. If the girl is not born with a good talent for cooking, it will not be easy to occupy a place in this huge Luo Mansion.

With the help of her subordinates, Su Sheng'er quickly prepared today's lunch, and then walked towards the backyard. Lunch is usually sent by her, and ordinary people in the inner courtyard can't enter, she has been in Luofu for a while, and her appearance is very pleasing to Mrs. Luo, so she has such a gift.

When she walked into the inner courtyard, her footsteps suddenly stopped, and her face showed a puzzled look, this already flowery courtyard was very quiet most of the time, unless the ladies in the backyard came to play and frolic, it would be lively for a while, and at this moment, in the green grass not far from her, there was a sound of rustling.

Su Sheng'er thought that it was a maid frolicking in it, after all, the ladies would not come here now, and the maids in Luofu were not very old, fourteen or fifteen years old, they still had some playfulness, and she had seen a lot, but when she stepped forward to separate the grass, the whole person was stunned.

What appeared in front of her was not a cute maid with a double bun, but a little girl, who was not very suitable to say that the little girl was not very suitable, and should be a baby girl who was only a few months old. However, the baby girl was standing on the ground very strangely, and she walked around a few steps at random, as if she was thinking about something, and she was not surprised to see Su Sheng'er appear, she just glanced at her lightly, and then stopped care.

Su Sheng'er opened her mouth wide, looking extremely shocked, in her cognition, shouldn't a month-old baby be lying in the cradle with big ignorant and curious eyes dumb, how could it be like this, so ...... Incredible!

Su Sheng'er didn't know what to say, and she was speechless for a while, and the baby girl suddenly opened her mouth: "I know you." ”

"You...... Can you talk?!"

"Isn't that weird?"

"yes, that's weird......"

Su Sheng'er couldn't speak, especially looking at the girl who looked like a matter of course, she had never encountered such a strange thing, a baby of a few months could walk easily and still be able to speak......

The baby girl was silent, opened her mouth and was about to speak, when she suddenly raised her head and glanced into the distance, frowning: "Someone is coming, don't talk about the past!"

She said softly, but suddenly there was an undoubted sense of domineering coming to her, as if standing in front of her was a big man rather than an ordinary baby girl, as if facing the master of this Luo Mansion, Lord Luo Tian, no, no, even Luo Tian's majesty towards his subordinates was far less than this feeling.

Su Sheng'er was a little difficult to breathe for a while: "What?"

The baby girl glanced at her, then closed her eyes, and the whole person fell forward, Su Sheng'er hurriedly threw down the plate of lunch in her hand and hugged her in her arms.

When lunch landed, it was naturally broken, and people in the distance seemed to hear the movement here, and the sound gradually got closer.

"Miss, Miss......"

"Miss, where are you?"

"Shallow ......"

A lot of noisy voices approached, and then a group of people broke into the courtyard, and the person at the head Su Sheng'er knew, it was the mistress of this Luo Mansion, Mrs. Luo.

Luofu people are about forty years old, well-maintained, although her face is full of anxiety at the moment, she can still feel the graceful and luxurious temperament on her body, and when she saw Su Sheng'er, she was stunned for a moment: "Sheng'er, you ...... Shallow!"

She suddenly shouted with relief, Su Sheng'er probably understood at this moment, the strange girl in her arms turned out to be the young lady who was born a few months ago, and hurriedly hugged her and walked towards the group of people.

Mrs. Luo took the baby, and the anxiety on her face finally disappeared, and the old mothers and maids behind her also nervously came up, and the ones who changed their clothes handed over the hot water, and they were chaotic for a while, obviously this newborn young lady had become the baby bump of the whole Luofu.

After a long time, after Mrs. Luo handed over the baby girl to the maid behind her, she looked at Su Sheng'er with a smile, and saw that she had a thick doubt on her face, so she explained: "Thank you Sheng'er this time." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, ma'am, I ......"

"What don't you dare, you girl is kind, you saved my daughter this time, I naturally want to thank you!"

"Huh, save?"

"Yes, alas, this time Xiaohuan was also careless, so I took a nap and asked her to look at the child, but in the blink of an eye she lost the child...... If you hadn't found her, Sheng'er, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

After all, it was just a few months old baby, lying here alone, it was indeed a very dangerous thing, but Su Sheng'er remembered what happened before, but she was a little speechless, she grinned and wanted to smile, and finally just made a single tone: "Heh......"

She could naturally tell what she had just done, but she didn't dare to say it when she thought of the girl's eyes, as an ordinary person, Sheng'er knew from a very young age that these big family affairs should not be mixed too much, and the deeper she falls, the more dangerous it is.

At this time, a maid who had been hiding behind the crowd also walked up and bowed lightly: "Thank you, Sister Sheng'er." ”

She looks thirteen or fourteen years old, she looks very young, and her face is a little pale, this should be the maid Xiaohuan who lost the child in her husband's mouth, Su Sheng'er thought in her heart, and returned a salute.

At this time, Mrs. said: "I don't blame Xiaohuan this time, after all, she has been with me for some time, and she is orderly on weekdays, and I trust her a lot...... It's just that this time I didn't expect Xiaohuan to be infected with a wind chill last night, and the whole person fainted as soon as the wind blew during the day, so this happened. But now that the two of them are safe, it is also a blessing. ”

When Xiaohuan heard this, he hurriedly bowed to Mrs. Luo: "Thank you, madam, madam's kindness." ”

"Well, you go down first!"

Soon after, Mrs. Luo had some more words with Su Sheng'er and left, and Su Sheng'er also planned to go back to the kitchen to make another one after cleaning up the lunch that had fallen on the ground.

After all, this is just a trivial matter, but the strange baby girl made Su Sheng'er think about it for a long time, and she always felt that what she was facing before was not a newborn girl, but the soul of an adult hidden in the body.

Evening gradually came, night fell, it was still early spring, winter had not yet passed, so the night still came quickly, Su Sheng'er also walked outside the house after preparing dinner, ready to return to the home in the outer city. And Ah Yu should have waited for a long time, thinking of this, her heart couldn't help but warm slightly, the feeling of someone waiting for her to come home every night is really good, if it was before, I am afraid that after returning home, I will face cold and darkness, not like now, Ah Yu has made dinner, hot, and there is a candle flame and his smile when he waits for her to come back.

Thinking like this, she couldn't help but walk much faster.

As soon as I left the house, I found that a carriage had stopped outside the Luo Mansion, and a middle-aged man was walking down with the help of the housekeeper.

Su Sheng'er hurriedly stopped and saluted slightly: "Master." ”

The person who came was the owner of Luofu, Luo Tian, who had the title of cold-faced tiger in the upper class of Ninghai City.

Luo Tian saw her, but he was slightly stunned, and then showed a rare smile: "It turned out to be Sheng'er, this is planning to go home?"

Su Sheng'er often goes to the inner courtyard, so she still knows the master of this mansion, but she has never been treated so warmly, and she was immediately stunned: "Yes, master." ”

"Hmm. Luo Tian nodded, and then seemed to think about it: "I have heard Lao Song say today's matter, and it was also a careless maid, but thank you." ”

"Heh......" Su Sheng'er smiled and said softly: "Master, this is all what I should do." ”

"Hehe, that's it, sir, I don't have anything to reward, Sheng'er, you are also an old man in my Luofu, how much salary do you have a month now?"

"It's one or two plus fifty. ”

"Well, then, Lao Song, you tell the gentleman in the account room, and raise Sheng'er's salary to five taels of silver a month, and tomorrow Sheng'er, you go to the account room to get fifty taels of silver, which is my gratitude to you. ”

"Fifty taels...... This, this, sir......"

Su Sheng'er swallowed, she had never seen so much money since she was a child.

"Well, Sheng'er, don't shirk, the news from the house earlier scared me to death, and the business was almost not negotiated, fortunately Sheng'er, you found the child in time, she is my baby daughter, isn't it worth this money?"

"This ...... Thank you, sir. ”

"Hmm, haha. ”

When Su Sheng'er returned home, she hadn't woken up from the good luck of being dropped from the sky, and Chen Guyu, who was dressed in linen and green clothes, brought dinner and asked with a smile: "Sheng'er, what's wrong, look at you weird today?"

After a long time, Su Sheng'er screamed violently: "Ah Yu, do you know, we have made a fortune!"

"What do you mean?"

Su Sheng'er told what happened today in detail, and Chen Guyu was naturally happy, laughing and saying that now is the time to operate, and good luck has come.

As for Su Sheng'er's doubts about the Luofu girl, Chen Guyu shook his head and said that he didn't know.

"Yes, I'm stupid too, Ah Yu, you've forgotten about the past, and I'm still asking you these things. ”

Su Sheng'er smiled, and simply put this matter aside, although the people in Luofu misunderstood that she found the child, but in fact, it was also said, but the matter that the girl and the baby were already able to walk was omitted in the middle, those things, Su Sheng'er would not think about it much, she had always been simple and optimistic, and at this time she thought about how to spend the money.

"Buy Ah Yu a few more Spring Festival clothes, well, it's time to change your shoes. ”

"There is also the rouge of Shuitianfang, I have wanted to buy it for a long time......"

"Add a new dish to your home. ”

"Well, Ah Yu, how about the skirt I liked last time, it's good-looking, it's just a little expensive......"

Seeing the girl holding Ruyu's fingers and looking like a wealth obsessed, Chen Guyu smiled in a low voice, and didn't say much, in this family, he never cared about these things, for him it was just something outside his body, as long as Sheng'er was happy. If Su Sheng'er sometimes came to ask, he would smile and say, "Okay, yes." Then he silently served her food and reminded her that it was time to eat.

Under Chen Guyu's several urgings, this long dinner was over.

After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, the two of them took a bath, and Su Sheng'er finished washing her clothes, because of the sudden fifty taels of silver, Su Sheng'er also rarely went to embroider the soles of Buna's shoes to sell, but sat with Chen Guyu silently, and continued to think about what the money could be used for.

In the long night, the candlelight was dim and flickering, and it was time to put on the itinerary the things that had been planned since last year, Chen Guyu said: "Sheng'er, let's expand this room." ”
