Chapter 11: Stay

She asked Mo Yan in a low voice, "Is Daddy painting?" Can you draw it? ”

Mo Yan also lowered his voice and replied: "After breakfast, the fourth master asked the slave to prepare pen and ink, but he looked out the window for a long time and did not start writing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoLater, after the slave came back from the girl and replied to the fourth master, the fourth master began to draw. I don't know if it's okay for a while? ”

Mo Shaoli nodded, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Fourth Master Mo raise his voice in the cabin: "Is it Qiqi?" Why don't you come in? ”

"It's me, Daddy." Mo Shaoli adjusted his expression and walked into the cabin with a smile, "What is Daddy doing?" ”

Master Mo Si put down the pen and turned around, saw the wooden plate she was dragging in her hand and smiled: "Qiqi has sent something delicious to Daddy again?" ”

"Eight Treasures Cake!" Mo Shaoli held the pastry in front of Master Mo Si as if offering a treasure, "Daddy, try it!" I did! ”

"Seventy-seven did it?" Fourth Master Mo took the wooden plate and looked at the pastries in the porcelain plate seriously, "Is it really Qiqi?" ”

"That's nature!" Mo Shaoli said proudly, and went to the desk to look at the painting on it: "What is Daddy painting?" ”

Since she was sixteen years old, she has been fighting with all kinds of old, middle-aged and young foxes in the shopping mall, and if she wants to be comfortable in the endless strange battles, artistic literacy is also a necessary weapon, even if she can't draw, she has to be able to appreciate, she worked hard back then.

On the table, there is an ink landscape, in which the blue sky and clear water, the rivers and distant mountains, and a lonely bird looms in the falling sun...... The picture is quiet and distant, and it gives people an indescribable sense of sadness.

Luoxia and lonely birds fly together, and the autumn water is the same color as the sky.

Looking at the painting where the ink had not dried, Mo Shaoli was secretly surprised in her heart, she knew that Master Mo Si was brilliant in literature and calligraphy, but she didn't expect him to paint so well.

The intention is that the pen and ink come first, and the painting is still intended.

At his age, I don't know how he did it?

"Qiqi can understand Daddy's paintings?" Seeing Mo Shaoli looking at the painting with a serious face, Master Mo asked with a smile.

"Well......" This question, Mo Shaoli felt a little difficult to answer, although Mo Si was full of artistic cells, but the original owner did not seem to have inherited the slightest, at least before she wore it, the original owner did not have any special interest and talent in calligraphy and painting, she couldn't behave too abnormally, so she showed a proud expression and said: "Of course, Daddy's painting is the best!" ”

Fourth Master Mo laughed and said, "Qiqi has vision!" ”

"Of course!" Mo Shaoli tilted his head and raised his chin.

It's actually quite tiring to sell cute! She sighed inwardly.

Master Mo Si was very happy by her arrogant little appearance, and sat down at the table after cleaning his hands, picked up a piece of Bazhen cake and put it in his mouth.

The powder is delicate, with a faint medicinal fragrance, but there is no bitter taste of medicine, refreshing and smooth.

Master Mo nodded again and again, and praised: "The taste is excellent!" ”

Mo Shaoli's face was full of joy: "It's good if Daddy likes it!" I'm also learning something else, and I'll make it for my dad another day! ”

"Daddy is waiting to taste your craft!" Fourth Master Mo smiled heartily, but deliberately expressed his doubts: "Will Qiqi really do it?" Don't coax Daddy. ”

"No, it won't!" Mo Shaoli wrinkled her little nose dissatisfied, "Let me tell you, I used to have a maid named Biyu who has excellent cooking skills, especially good at making pastries." I just learned from her, and I learned a lot, but my father didn't know it. ”

"Really? Why didn't Qiqi make it for his father before......" Mo Jun said, but remembered that every time he went back to Fengyi Garden in the past, the little Qiqi hid behind his mother and looked at him timidly and didn't dare to step forward, and his expression couldn't help but be a little embarrassed: "Qiqi, Daddy was ...... at that time"

Mo Shaoli observed his words and knew that he remembered the past.

At that time, Master Mo Si was not good to her, alienated, strict, and always dissatisfied when he saw her, especially in front of Mrs. Mo, when she was never right, she returned to Fengyi Yuan and reprimanded mostly, anyway, as long as someone said that she was not good, Master Mo Si would decide that she was wrong.

At that time, the person she envied the most was Mo Shaoqi, who was held by Master Mo and went to Jiashan Hall to greet Mrs. Mo together.

However, now she doesn't want to pursue the past.

The eldest princess of Hui'an chose Mo Jun as a concubine, which was a wrong marriage, and it was for everyone.

But when you look closely, you can't say who is right and who is wrong.

It can only be said that creation makes people.

The eldest princess of Hui'an is too naΓ―ve, and the royal marriage is not allowed to be full of love and water.

Mo Jun is a victim, and Mo Shaoli is even more victimized, why not herself?

It's just that in their previous lives, they all paid the price for that wrong marriage, and they all died unexpectedly, and their debts should be paid off, right?

In this life, Mo Shaoli just wants to live well.

In her opinion, with the jump into the water in his previous life, when Master Mo Si capsized in Yangzhou and risked his life to save her, all his mistakes can be forgiven. In this life, she wants to be a father and daughter with him, take good care of him, and make him happy.

"Daddy, speaking of Jasper, my daughter remembers one thing and wants to discuss it with her father." Mo Shaoli pretended not to notice the embarrassment of Master Mo Si, looked at him with a smile and said, "Now that Biyu is gone, there is one less person by my side, and I want to buy another maid to make up for it." ”

Seeing that his daughter seemed to have no problem with the past, Master Mo felt more and more guilty in his heart, and hurriedly said: "You should make up for it, and when you return home, your father will let your aunt pick the best one for you." ”

It's too late when you get home! Counting on the Wu Clan?

Am I not going to repeat the mistakes of the past!

Mo Shaoli pouted: "But I can't wait to go home, I'll take a fancy to the last one now." ”

"Who does Qiqi have a crush on?" Fourth Master Mo was surprised. They are now on the boat, and the maids on the ship are only the three beside Qiqi, who else will Qiqi fancy?

"Ah Zhu!" Mo Shaoli said.

"Azhu?" Fourth Master Mo's thinking paused for a moment, and then he remembered who Azhu was, "But Azhu only stayed on the boat temporarily to recuperate, and he is not a descendant of our family." ”

Uncle Chen told him yesterday that Ah Zhu fished the drowning man out of the river, and fortunately Ah Zhu caught it in time, otherwise it would have been too late to revive him. At that time, he still wanted to ask Ah Zhu carefully, but when Changning Hou came to visit, he forgot about it, but he didn't expect Qiqi to want her to be a maid.

Master Mo Si said again: "When my father left Azhu on our boat, Uncle Chen once talked about her life experience. Ah Zhu is from an innocent background and is the daughter of a good family, although we saved her, we can't force people to sell themselves into slavery. ”

"My daughter knows." Mo Shaoli said, "But you have to ask to know if she is willing or not!" Besides, being a maid doesn't have to sell yourself, we can sign a contract with her. ”

"No!" Master Mo Si said, "She wants to be your personal maid, and it's always inappropriate to have no deed." ”

"Don't worry about this daddy. Ah Zhu has no relatives alive now, there is nowhere to go, and Uncle Chen knows her well, what does it matter if she has a deed or not? Daddy, you must not have looked at Ah Zhu carefully, she is a very proper person, and she can also work hard, if her daughter encounters danger or something in the future......"

"Childlike words!" Fourth Master Mo interrupted her, "You are a boudoir woman, how can you be in danger?" ”

Mo Shaoli pouted secretly, I have encountered more dangers, but you don't know it, but I can't tell you.

She originally thought that it would be better for Fourth Master Mo to come forward and talk to Ah Zhu, because after all, she was only nine years old, and it was impossible for such a thing as buying a maid to cross Master Mo Si's own assertions, but now that her father refused, she had to ask Ah Zhu by herself. If Ah Zhu was willing to stay, Fourth Master Mo naturally had no reason to object.

After sitting for a while, Mo Shaoli retired and left.

Although Mo Jun refused to admit that his daughter would encounter any danger, he also remembered the incident in Yangzhou that night. After Mo Shaoli left, he thought about it and felt that it was not a bad thing for his daughter to have a maid who knew kung fu by her side, so he asked Uncle Chen to find Ah Zhu.

When Ah Zhu decided to follow the Mo family's boat to Beijing, he thought about his life after arriving in the capital. Originally, she planned to live in the Chen family after arriving in the capital, relying on her good female red skills to take on some embroidery work, and she could always support herself.

But along the way, she learned that Uncle Chen was actually a slave of the Mo family, and the whole family was working as a slave in the Mo Mansion, so she hesitated a little.

But she is a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, and it is impossible for her to live elsewhere with a single family.

When she was at a loss and didn't know what to do with the road ahead, Fourth Master Mo suddenly called her over and asked her if she would like to be Miss Mo Qi's maid.

Ah Zhu naturally felt unacceptable for a while, and bowed his head silently.

Although she is lonely, she is from a good family, how can she be willing to sell herself into slavery?

But after thinking about it carefully, she found that she was in a situation where there was no better way out than to be a maid.

Fourth Master Mo was kind and kind, not only saved her, but also kept her on the ship for so long. Miss Mo Qi is also very cute, always smiling and talking to people, and has never seen her beat and scold people.

Perhaps, staying by Miss Mo Qi's side is her best choice now......

"I do." Ah Zhu raised his head and said to Master Mo Si.

After coming out of the cabin of the fourth master of Mo, Aunt Chen took Ah Zhu to see Mo Shaoli: "Seventh girl, this is the girl that the fourth master bought for you, and she has been working with the slave maid for a few months, although she has not been trained well, she is also diligent and articulate." The fourth master said that you are in a hurry to use it, and the old slave is busy sending it over, if she wants to do anything bad in the future, let a few sisters only discipline her. ”

"Got it." Mo Shaoli said with a smile, "Hard work Aunt Chen." Snow kite, take some broken silver to buy tea for Aunt Chen. ”

Aunt Chen thanked her and left.

Mo Shaoli looked back at Ah Zhu.

"Girl, slave ......," Azhu muttered.

"Sister Azhu." Mo Shaoli stretched out his hand to hold her, "I know that you may feel a little sad in your heart if you sell yourself as a slave, but don't worry, maybe in two or three years, at most four or five years, I will return your deed to you and release your slave." It's not just you, it's ...... them."

Mo Shaoli pointed at Zixuan and the three: "...... I'll give it back to you! Not only that, but I will also have a large dowry for you to marry! ”

Ah Zhu and Zi Xuan were stunned at first, but then they all laughed angrily when they heard it: "How old is the girl?" Let's talk about the dowry! Look at the slaves and maids to tell the fourth master to know, punish the girl for writing big characters! ”

"Ho! Do you mean you don't want money? Then I'll save money! Mo Shaoli shouted.

She is not worried that they will sue at all, even if she is not afraid of suing, her calligraphy is very good, but the original owner wrote when she was nine years old is miserable, these days she is thinking about how to legalize her good handwriting.

"Girl, I want it." Qingcheng suddenly said seriously, "But the slave doesn't want to marry too far, and the slave wants to be a housekeeper for the girl in the future." ”

Everyone burst into laughter.

Mo Shaoli renamed Ah Zhu Green Bead.

Since then, the four of Zixuan have become more and more desperate for Mo Shaoli.
