Chapter 35: Thirteen Niang
Although the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, the weather in Quanzhou in August is still very hot. Although it had just rained heavily yesterday www.biquge.info and I ordered someone to put several ice basins in the house, I still didn't feel a trace of coolness in the house. At this time, Wang Jiqing was extremely nostalgic for the air conditioner in her previous life.
From the moment I came to this world, I knew that this was a hierarchical society, which was different from my previous life in many places. Since you can't change this reality, you can only change yourself to slowly adapt to this society. Wang Xiqing didn't want to flaunt how different she was, but she still couldn't bear to see those little maids who were only eleven or twelve years old sweating for themselves. But this society is like this, she has no way to change anything, she can only be glad that she was reborn in the body of the daughter of this family. Faced with such a situation, she couldn't make any moves that were incompatible with the status quo of this society, so she could only stand up silently, put down the medical book in her hand, took a fan in her hand, and walked to the garden. Wang Ji thought lightly, it is better to go to the shade of the trees in the garden to blow the natural wind.
Seeing that the young lady was out of the door, she asked the little maid to bring herbal tea and other things and followed.
Walking on the tree-lined path of the garden, Wang Xi remembered the society in her previous life, which claimed to be equal to everyone, and those rich and powerful people also enjoyed different social resources and treatment from ordinary people. Actually, it's not that different from the society I'm living in now.
Wang Jiqing recalled the events of her previous life, and when she was careless, she didn't pay attention to her feet, so she stepped on a small piece of mud in front of her, slipped under her feet, and almost fell down. The shallow pity and others who were a few steps behind her exclaimed "ah", but they didn't have time to step forward to help.
"Miss Six, be careful." At this time, a rough-dressed maid suddenly rushed out from the side and supported Wang Jiqing, who was about to fall.
With the help of this maid's support, Wang Jiqing regained her footing.
Shallow Xi hurriedly stepped forward to check, "Miss, are you okay?" ”
"It's fine." Wang Ji chuckled, and then looked up at the maid who had helped him just now. This is a raw maid, a rough maid's dress, her appearance is very ordinary, and her grade is only seventeen or eighteen years old.
"What's your name?" Wang Jiqing asked while shaking the fan lightly.
"Back to Miss Liu, the slave's surname is Li, and she is the thirteenth in the family, so everyone calls me Thirteen Niang." Thirteen Niang let go of Wang Xiqing's arm as early as when she caught up. At this time, he took a step back and bowed.
"Thirteen Niang, thank you just now."
"It is right to serve the master, and the slave and maid deserve the gratitude of the sixth lady."
"Listening to your accent, it doesn't seem like you're a native of Quanzhou, where is your hometown?"
"If you go back to Miss Liu, the slave maid is indeed not a native of Quanzhou, and the slave maid's hometown is in Shanxi."
"Oh, how did you get to Quanzhou?" Shanxi's? Wang Ji nodded lightly.
"The slave's family suffered a famine, and she came to Quanzhou to join her relatives. I didn't expect that my relatives were no longer in Quanzhou, and the slave and maid were all entangled in their bodies, and there was really no way for one person, and he was about to live on the streets, but he saw that he had recruited people in the house more than a month ago, and he sold himself to the house. ”
"Oh, don't you have anyone else at home?" What a coincidence, he actually came to Quanzhou with himself? Interesting. Wang Ji smiled lightly.
"The slave and maid died early, and only the slave and maid were left."
"Then you will go to Haitang Courtyard with me on an errand in the future." Wang Ji glanced at Thirteen Niang thoughtfully, then turned around and walked in the direction of Haitang Courtyard.
In the Begonia Courtyard, Wang Jiqing went to the clean room again to freshen up, and after freshening up, she only wore a middle coat, then sat crookedly on the soft collapse, took a fan and shook it, looked at the thirteen niangs in front of her, and said nothing.
Thirteen Niang has been waiting here since she came to Haitang Courtyard, and at this time, she saw that Miss Wang Liu was just staring at herself and did not speak. I don't know what this young lady is thinking for a while.
"It's a pity, you all go down, leaving only Thirteen Niang to serve here." The time for a cup of tea passed, and Wang Ji spoke lightly.
"Miss,......" glanced at her own lady, she was really a little worried about her own lady being alone with an unknown maid. Seeing that the young lady no longer spoke, she had to retreat with the little maids.
"Thirteen Niang, you have thought clearly. But what do you have to tell me? Wang Ji shook the fan in her hand carelessly.
"The slave doesn't understand what Miss Six means." Thirteen Niang lowered her body and replied, her face calm.
"A native of Shanxi, I came to Quanzhou with me more than a month ago." Wang Ji lightly put down the fan and picked up the herbal tea beside her, "Do you still use what I said to make it clearer?" Or do you want me to take out those peach blossom notes before you are willing to tell the truth? ”
"Miss Six!" When Thirteen Niang heard this, her face changed drastically, and she quickly looked up at Wang Ji and knelt down.
Wang Jiqing just took the fan and continued to fan the wind carelessly, no longer speaking.
After another quarter of an hour or so, Thirteen Niang finally gritted her teeth and said, "Since Miss Sixth has already guessed, the slave doesn't dare to hide it." The slave maid is indeed from the Li family in Shanxi, and she came to protect the sixth lady on the order of my master. The letters were also sent secretly by slaves and maidservants. ”
"What else did Li Yuanche ask you to do?" Wang Xiqing didn't believe that Thirteen Niang was just secretly protecting herself, if so, she could clearly continue to hide in the shadows and not show up.
"This ......" The master let himself secretly transmit all the news around Miss Six, if Miss Six knows, I'm afraid she will be angry with the master. Thirteen Niang didn't dare to say.
"If you don't say it, I know it, it's nothing more than staying by my side and spying on me." Wang Ji chuckled, this Li Yuanche is too domineering. If he drove away Thirteen Niang, he was afraid that he would secretly send Fourteen Niang and Fifteen Niang to come, and his secret would not be known to others for the time being. In this case, it is better to keep people by your side openly, so as not to guard against people in the dark in the future.
"Since you are telling the truth, it is not difficult for me to be for you. Since your master has asked you to follow me, then you can stay. ”
"Thank you, Miss Six." Thirteen Niang looked at the woman sitting in front of her, and thought in her heart, this sixth lady is really smart, and she was found out as soon as she appeared, fortunately, she has no reservations, to tell the truth, otherwise I am afraid I will not be able to stay.
"But there are some things you have to remember. Since you are with me, you are naturally my person. And I don't like everything being passed on. Some things are harmless, you tell your master, I don't care. But there are some things that you must never tell your master without my consent. ”
"But the slave doesn't know what ...... is," Thirteen Niang still wanted to fight for her master.
"Don't worry about this, if you can't let Li Yuanche know about it, I will naturally tell you in advance." Wang Ji lightly interrupted Thirteen Niang's words. "If you can do it, you can stay with me; If not, I can only ask Li Yuanche to bring you back. ”
"Slaves can do it." Thirteen Niang thought of the situation of those shadow guards who were sent back after failing the mission, and was ruthless, and nodded in agreement. This sixth lady is the person on the tip of the master's heart, and sooner or later she will be her own master, and the master should not blame herself for making assertions.
"Very good, then you go out and ask Qianxi to come in." Wang Ji chuckled, and there was finally a pair of eyes missing from his side that was secretly peeping.
