88. Chapter 88

I thought that choosing a maid was just a formality, and when they finished picking a round, there were few left, but I didn't expect that when Song Yanzhu got there, among a group of dressed and pretty maids, he saw Ping Bao'er who was dressed plainly and a little dumbfounded.

Seeing Song Yanzhu, Ping Baoer's eyes lit up, blinked her eyes, and lowered her head again.

In front of Yuan's family, Song Yanzhu only glanced at it casually, and nodded at Ping Bao'er, Yuan's was obviously surprised that she chose such a stupid girl who didn't look amazing and didn't look too clever, anyway, it was Song Yanzhu who chose it, and when the old lady asked, she had nothing to do with her, and she was very happy to see it.

When she returned to the courtyard, as soon as Song Yanzhufu closed the door, Ping Baoer rushed up to salute Song Yanzhu, Song Yanzhu hurriedly pulled her up and looked her up and down, and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, you are a lot taller!" Ping Bao'er's cheeks were rosy, obviously very happy, and said to Song Yanzhu: "I was worried about death just now, I was afraid that the second lady didn't recognize me and led others away!" ”

"A group of people are dressed quite conspicuously, just you stand unremarkable, it's hard not to see you!" Chu Xia was also overjoyed, and greeted him and said, "Pingbao'er, why are you here?" ”

"Something must have happened, right?" Song Yanzhu wondered. At that time, when she left Zhuangzi, Liu Changshou's family was fine, could it be that something happened in the middle, and she had to rely on selling Pingbaoer to make money? Thinking of the lovely peace and peaceful life, Song Yanzhu's heart sank.

Ping Bao'er hurriedly shook her head and said: "No, no, no, my father and mother are very good, Ping An and Pingsheng know that I am coming here, and they all say that I must tell Miss, they all miss Miss!" ”

"That ......" Song Yanzhu was puzzled, and Ping Baoer hurriedly explained.

It turned out that in the first two months, Liu Changshou made a lot of money by trading with others, so he asked the Zhao family for a favor, left Zhuangzi, and the family rented a house in Jianzhou City and opened a tea shop. A few days ago, Mrs. Tian Ya went to them to look for candidates, and it happened that Liu Changshou's family heard it, and when she turned around to discuss with Liu Changshou, she sent Ping Bao'er in.

Song Yanzhu suddenly realized after hearing this: The ordinary people in Jianzhou City do not send their daughters to serve others as maids, but if it is a big family like the Song family and the Zhao family, there are many people who are willing. The maids from large families are better than others in temperament and vision, and their food, clothing, housing and transportation are better than ordinary people, not to mention the monthly money and treatment, and when they reach the age of marriage, the master does not help choose a good family, but also asks for a grace to marry on their own, and the value is also rising at that time, which is different from ordinary girls.

"Then why don't you let your mother come to me directly, so that you are not afraid of being chosen by others and can't come to me?" Song Yanzhu asked again.

Ping Bao'er smiled and said, "My mother is afraid of troublesome Second Miss...... Fortunately, I was smart, and when I saw that the second lady didn't come, I pretended to be stupid, and I couldn't understand what others asked me. As for the young lady in white just now, she also said that Ya Po chose a fool to come in...... Hehe, it's finally okay, let me wait for the second miss! ”

"I'm glad you came to me!" Song Yanzhu patted Ping Bao'er's hand, nodded slightly to Chu Xia, Chu Xia immediately sent a small purse and stuffed it into Ping Bao'er's hand, Song Yanzhu said, "This is a little bit of my heart, I will work hard for you to take care of me in the future!" Ping Bao'er blushed and said, "What do you say, you get paid before you work!" ”

Song Yanzhu laughed: "This is the rule in our house, you can get paid if you don't go to work!" I don't need you to serve me today, you go back to the house to see your father and mother first, and come back early tomorrow morning! ”

Ping Bao'er shook her head again and again, her straight way was not in accordance with the rules, and Chu Xia smiled: "When you get to Miss, Miss is our rule!" ”

Ping Baoer thanked her and said goodbye. I came early the next morning, and I brought a large package of things with me, and after opening it, there were all kinds of dim sum, all of which were Liu Changshou's specialty style, and Song Yanzhu liked to eat when he was in Zhuangzi. Ping Bao'er put down her things and went to find Hua's mother to receive an errand, and before dusk, Hua's mother said to Song Yanzhu with a smile: "This new girl is really a good one, although she is silent, she is better than being practical and capable, doing things safely, and she doesn't stop all day!" ”

Song Yanzhu said with a smile: "Observe for two more days, and if you are capable, you will put it in my room." ”

Mother Hua smiled and nodded. Ping Bao'er was also angry, working all day long, the Jin family was originally quite worried about Song Yanzhu's new girl, but she sent her mother-in-law to stare at her for two days, and she went back very satisfied. Within a few days, Ping Baoer officially replaced Peony as Song Yanzhu's personal maid.

At this time, it was close to around the Dragon Boat Festival, Song Yanzhu was afraid of urinating at this time, not to mention the hot weather, mosquitoes, snakes and ants were the most annoying.

On this day, when she was annoyed by mosquitoes, Ping Baoer sent a sachet to Song Yanzhu and said with a smile: "If Miss is afraid of mosquitoes, this sachet is the most effective!" Since I was a child, I have been recruiting mosquitoes, and my mother asked Langzhong in the village for a recipe, but it is the most common herb, and mosquitoes have to stay away from you when you wear it! ”

Song Yanzhu took the letter suspiciously, leaned in front of him and smelled it, the taste was fresh and elegant, and the faint mint smell in it instantly refreshed his mind. In early summer, Nahui was pinching the mosquito bag on the back of his hand and joked: "You are a good ass!" Miss is most afraid of mosquitoes, and if this thing works, it will count you as a great achievement! ”

Ping Bao'er hehehe, "I also left one for my sister!" ”

Early Summer's eyes lit up: "I have it too?" ”

"Yes!" Ping Bao'er blinked her eyes and said innocently, "I'm afraid that my sister will be bitten by mosquitoes again, not to mention that her hands will become buns, and she will give birth to a pig's head!" ”

"Poof......" Song Yanzhu couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, you scold me!" In the early summer, he came back to his senses, raised his hand and pretended to fight Bao'er, the two were making a mess, and a clear female voice sounded: "You two continue to make trouble like this, but you want to demolish the house?" ”

Looking up in early summer, I saw Peony standing with a smile, the two hurriedly cleaned up their clothes, Peony stepped forward to salute Song Yanzhu, and said with a smile: "No wonder the girls have broken their heads and want to serve the second lady, now in our house, the most lively and comfortable belongs to you!" ”

"It's because I'm too indulging them on weekdays!" Song Yanzhu said with a smile.

Peony said with some envy: "The masters are as tolerant as you, and the blessings of the slaves and maids have arrived." As soon as she said this, everyone remembered the chess service that was not there some time ago, and the service qin who was kicked out of the house.

There was originally a brother in the family, her mother was to marry her brother's daughter-in-law to sell the qin, all these years rely on the qin to supplement the family, after the qin was kicked out, her mother saw that the financial road was broken, simply sold the qin to a sixty-year-old widower to do the chord, I heard that he was tortured to die and live, no human appearance.

Peony also entered the house with the qin and chess, and now the personnel are different, and when he sees the early summer and the peace Bao'er, he can't help but feel a little embarrassed when he sees them at that time.

The early summer is also dark. Only then did Peony remember to say formally: "Second Miss, the old lady asked you to go to her." A guest came to the house, saying that he wanted to meet you. ”

"Guest?" Song Yanzhu asked.

Peony said: "It's Mrs. Cui from Beijing." ”

"Old Madam Cui? Is the old lady Cui of the Marquis of Kejing's mansion? Song Yanzhu asked. has a good relationship with Mrs. Song, surnamed Cui, and from Beijing, there is only one lady from the Marquis of Kejing's mansion. This old lady Cui is also a legend, she once served Wan Guifei in the current dynasty, but later she was favored by the Marquis of Kejing, and climbed all the way from a maid to the throne of Mrs. Houfu.

Song Yanzhu has never seen her, but he has heard a lot of her legendary stories, and his reviews are mixed. To this day, there are still many maids who take her as an example and try to turn over and be the master, but in the end they are crushed into the dust.

Peony nodded, and Song Yanzhu asked again, "Do you know what she is here for?" ”

"I said that I hadn't seen the old lady for a long time, and I returned to my hometown to worship my ancestors, and I came to visit." Peony replied.

Song Yanzhu nodded and let Peony go back first. Ping Bao'er and Chu Xia waited for her to change her clothes, and halfway through, Song Yanzhu found that her earrings were lost, and time was pressing, so she simply took down the other one, and let Ping Bao'er and Chu Xia continue to look for it in the yard, and went to Mrs. Song first.

After the proud building, just walk through the corridor of the old lady's Hexi Hall, Song Yanzhu was in a hurry, when he turned the corner, because the steps were too fast, he collided with another person head-on, Song Yanzhu's head was in pain, and the tears flowed down his forehead, and when the tears were uproaring, a pair of black soap boots appeared in front of him, and some familiar voices sounded in his ears, and he asked softly: "Are you okay?" ”

Song Yanzhu couldn't remember where he had heard this voice, and looked up blindfolded, only to see that under the sun, a man was dressed in ink-colored clothes, the neckline and cuffs were trimmed with gold silk and moire, and the man was very handsome, handsome, with a long body, looking at her with his head down, and his body was indescribably extravagant.

Song Yanzhu didn't know who he was, this place was not far from Hexi Hall, and he thought it was Mrs. Cui's family. She rubbed her head and got up, and was about to apologize, when she suddenly saw the jade bone fan he was holding in her hand, and there was a sudden bang in her head.

"Don't provoke Shi Weitian these days, I don't see that the person in the carriage is not an idle person...... Those men in black have the waist cards of the palace hanging on them......"

Tao Moyan's words suddenly resounded in Song Yanzhu's ears that day, Song Yanzhu was shocked, and couldn't help but squint at the person again, and then quickly lowered his head.

Nine Kings ...... Zhu Qizhen.

The previous time in Lishui Town was just a chance encounter, but now they met in the Song Mansion. Song Yanzhu subconsciously took a step back and wanted to run away: this is her brother-in-law in her previous life, and her quasi-brother-in-law in this life. In the previous life, when Song Huanzhu got married, Song Yanzhu had never seen Zhu Qizhen, and even his affairs were later talked about by Tao Moyan.

Xu everyone thinks that marrying a prince is a surname, and he is still a romantic figure like Jiuwang, but Song Yanzhu regards him like a snake and scorpion.

Nine Kings? How to evaluate it? People in the world often say that the most ruthless emperor is the family, but this nine kings are a special existence.

I heard that the nine kings and concubines that year, the two husband and wife were in love, and the couple was deeply in love, and it was a good story for a while. It's a pity that less than a year later, the nine princesses died of illness, and since that year, the temperament of the nine kings has changed greatly, so they can linger in the flowers and sing every night. I heard that the beauties around the nine kings are weaving, but those beauties are carved out of a mold, and comparing these beauties with the portraits of the nine princesses who have passed away, you will find that these beauties either have eyes like the nine princesses, or noses like the nine princesses - Tao Moyan said that the nine kings are like searching for the shadow of the nine princesses in each woman, the more similar they are, the more they are favored, but if you can find more similar ones next time, then it is the time for you to abandon them.

Whether this is affectionate or Bo Xing, Song Yanzhu can't tell. She only remembered that Song Huanzhu, who was once lively and lively, and fought with her when she had nothing to do, lost her favor less than a year after marrying the Nine Kings, and lived a miserable life.

"Are you alright?" Zhu Qizhen asked again.

Song Yanzhu lowered his head and subconsciously shook his head.

"You are? Miss Fuli? Song Yanzhu shook his head again.

"Can't you speak?" Zhu Qizhen asked again.

Song Yanzhu was stunned, nodded, and shook his head again.

Zhu Qizhen stared at the person in front of him, she really hit the ground hard, she was short, and she lowered her head at the moment, and she couldn't see her. Judging by the fact that she doesn't dress like a maidservant, but she hasn't heard of a mute lady in the Song Mansion? Looking at the person in front of him cowering, his body was still swinging, and he didn't know whether he was shy or afraid, so he couldn't get on the stage, he would never be the dignified and generous eldest lady in Mrs. Cui's mouth, let alone the second lady who was amazing and daring.

Which concubine is it afraid of? Zhu Qizhen shook his head and walked away.

Song Yanzhu was breathing a sigh of relief and was about to leave, when Zhu Qizhen, who had just left, suddenly stopped her: "You wait!" ”
