Xia Ran pursed his mouth, and Mo Hyun said the shocking words just now in this calm voice, which had the effect of being angry and unworthy of his life than ordinary people!

"Someone asked me to send something to Miss Xia." Mo Hyun said as he took out a brocade box from his arms, "The crown prince's birthday, the crown princess originally wanted to invite you to the banquet, this is the jewelry she gave you, and it happened that the prince also sent an invitation, so it would be more logical." ”

Xia Ranhu glanced at Mo Hyun suspiciously, but didn't take the box: "The crown princess asked you to invite me?" ”

Mo Hyun smiled slightly and opened the brocade box: "After the death of the concubine, I lived in the high priest's mansion for a long time, and the crown princess was like my sister. You don't have to worry, I assure you, there is absolutely no poison in this jewelry. ”

Xia Ran was poked through his heart, a little embarrassed, then he looked towards Jinhe, the box is a coiled vine, the green vine branches are moist and dripping, it seems to be the best jade, there are jasmine flowers blooming on the vine, the size of real flowers, white jade carving, it is also the best, and there is really a jasmine fragrance, it is a very clear and light fragrance, which makes people feel refreshed in it, but it is difficult to find where the fragrance comes from.

Xia Ran has never been a person who is interested in jewelry, but when he saw the things in this box, he couldn't help but be curious, and poked it with his hand, and the vines turned out to be soft......

"This is the vine dragon jade and the smelling jade." Mo Hyun saw the childlike surprise on Xia Ran's face, and explained to her with a light smile, "One is soft and the other is fragrant, but smelling jade with this kind of fragrance is relatively rare, and the princess said that this dark fragrance is very suitable for your temperament." ”

Xia Ran raised her eyebrows, this dark fragrance is really amazing, so glamorous that she was a little reluctant to refuse, but would the crown princess Chu Qiqin kindly give her such special jewelry from her predecessor? She didn't believe her if she was killed!

"Roll as far as you want! If you pester me again, I'll have people break your legs! ”

Outside the door, the shouting sound sounded frantically, Xia Ran opened the door to look, only to see Song Zhongzheng kicking a ragged little beggar with great impatience.

"What's going on?" Xia Ran blinked and walked towards Song Zhong.

"Third Miss, this dead girl is begging for food at the door, and I relented for a while and gave her ingots of silver." Song Zhong said aggrieved and annoyed, "As a result, she entangled me, and when the street said that I promised to marry her to be a small and bad account, and wanted to send her away with five taels of silver, so that everyone on the street looked at me, I quickly pulled her in, and let her continue to talk nonsense, and my reputation will be ruined!" This kind of dead girl, shouldn't she break her legs! ”

Burst! Xia Ran laughed out loud, and couldn't help but be a little interested in the little beggar.

The little beggar knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Master, the little woman hasn't eaten for two days, please have mercy on me, saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, and the little woman will repay you as a cow and a horse." ”

Song Zhong saw that the girl's cheekbones were towering and her face was full of vegetables, she was really hungry enough, and he couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, and said hatefully: "Didn't I give you silver, enough for you to eat for half a month, and you still want to bite me back, I can't afford this kind of reward!" ”

The little beggar continued to kowtow: "Master, the little woman is not afraid of the lack of money, but the little woman is lonely, wandering around, almost starving to death on the street, the first time I met the lord such a generous benefactor, five taels of silver is a lot, but there is always a day when it runs out, the little girl does not want your silver, just ask the master to take it in, enjoy the bowl of rice to eat, the little girl can chop wood and carry water, laundry and cooking, and can do any rough work." ”

The girl trembled and sent the silver to Song Zhong with both hands, her head bowed, her little shoulders shook from moment to moment, obviously she was so hungry that it was a little difficult to maintain this position.

Song Zhong made a difficulty, he really pitied this girl, but how could this kind of girl with impure character stay in the mansion!

"What's your name?" Xia Ran looked at the girl with interest, she was a smart and knowledgeable person, but she had a great appetite for her.

The girl glanced at Xia Ran, immediately put the silver in front of Song Zhong, turned around and kowtowed to Xia Ran: "The slave maid's surname is Xiaoyu, please take the girl in." ”

Xia Ran smiled, so quickly changed her name from a little girl to a slave, she was really a clever girl, it just so happened that after Qiao'er left, she had less servants around her, Ruan Mandong would definitely make up for her, rather than this, it was better for her to pick someone first, Xia Ran likes smart people, and smiled at Song Zhong at the moment: "Steward Song, this girl will stay with me, bring her some food." ”

Song Zhong pursed his lips, one is that he doesn't want to offend Xia Ran now, and the other is really pitiful An Xiaoyu can't bear to say anything, so he nodded, turned around and went to Zhang Luo to eat, and soon a bowl of hot soup and three dishes were sent to Xia Ran's room.

An Xiaoyu grabbed it like a tiger, taking two bites of three, eager to swallow the bowl of rice.

"Wait!" Xia Ran snatched An Xiaoyu's rice bowl, pressed her to a chair and sat down, took an empty bowl and spooned half a bowl of soup for her, "People who have been hungry for a long time can't eat these meals, it will hurt the spleen and stomach, you drink the soup, I'll ask someone to make you a bowl of porridge." ”

An Xiaoyu was so startled that she quickly stood up: "The slave doesn't dare to sit on the girl's chair." ”

Xia Ran chuckled: "You dare to say that Song Zhong has abandoned you like a, do you still dare?" ”

"Miss Xia, if there is nothing to do, I will leave first." Mo Hyun glanced at An Xiaoyu quietly and nodded at Xia Ran.

"You go back first, you don't need to take the antidote for the first year." Xia Ran walked up to Mo Hyun and whispered in his ear, "Today next year, I will give you the antidote." ”

Mo Hyun twitched, held back his laughter, and said calmly, "Hmm." ”

After using porridge, Xia Ran asked An Xiaoyu to call a bucket of bath water, wash off the dirt on her body, and change into clean clothes, Xia Ran was really surprised, the girl in front of her Tingting curled like a new hibiscus flower, her little face was beautiful, and her breasts were not plump enough, but her slender waist was so thin that she could barely support her upper body, and her pitiful petite figure made people feel pity.

Such a lovely person, wherever she goes, is the focus of men's attention, and she will be reduced to begging on the street?

"The slave hasn't been washed for a long time, and I'm not used to it." Feeling Xia Ran's doubts, An Xiaoyu lowered her head embarrassedly, "Slaves and maids are still more used to pretending to be ugly." ”

"Why are you acting ugly?"

An Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment and said: "The slave maid's hometown encountered a famine, and my father and mother wanted to sell the slave and maid to the landlord's family for a small exchange of wheat bran, but the slave and maid were unwilling, and were beaten up so they had to escape. originally thought that the world was so big that he would never starve to death, but he found a few masters...... The male protagonist, all ...... is uneasy and kind to the slave and maid, and the female master is worried that the slave and the maid have seduced their husbands, and they will not be able to do it for a long time every time. So the slave maid pretended to be ugly, trying to find a good family that Hu was willing to take in, but unexpectedly, she was unlucky, caught up with a serious illness, and almost starved to death on the street, seeing that Song Guan's family was good, this was ......"

Xia Ran squinted, from the first sentence An Xiaoyu said, her heart was already aching, she was sold by her parents for food, and she was beaten badly, it turned out that the daughter who didn't attract love in the world was far more than herself.

Xia Ran raised his chin and looked at An Xiaoyu scrutinically: "Then why don't you continue to pretend to be ugly?" Aren't you afraid I'll be jealous of you and drive you away? ”

An Xiaoyu bit her lip in embarrassment: "The girl is so beautiful, where can a slave and maid compare, and...... The slave maid wants to ......"

"Do you want to test whether my master is suitable?" Xia Ran broke An Xiaoyu's heart with a word, "If I am a person with a small belly and chicken intestines, you are not rare to serve, right?" ”

An Xiaoyu pounced and knelt down: "The slave doesn't dare, the slave just thinks that the girl is an extremely kind person, and she won't mind the true appearance of the slave and the maid." No master has ever let the slave and maid eat on the table before, and he thought of bringing porridge for the slave and maid to drink, even the father and mother have never been so thoughtful, begging the girl not to drive the little fish away......"

An Xiaoyu said in a hurry, and began to kowtow again, his voice was choked, and his clear big eyes were full of tears.

Xia Ran hurriedly held her up: "I'm joking with you, temptation is temptation, the maid is also a human being, and it is natural for me to find a good person for myself, I won't drive you away like this." How old are you? ”

An Xiaoyu wiped her tears at this time: "Slave fifteen." ”

"That's a year younger than me, and we don't have a generation gap." Xia Ran smiled and grimaced, "An Xiaoyu, don't call slaves and slaves in the future, I'm not used to hearing these two words, just say me." ”

An Xiaoyu was shocked: "The slave doesn't dare." ”

"You won't listen to the first command I say!" Xia Ran stiffened her face, "Are you sure you really don't dare?" ”

An Xiaoyu looked at Xia Ran in a daze, until the two laughed together, and the atmosphere suddenly became much more harmonious.

Ruan Mandong originally disagreed with Xia Ran taking in a maid picked up from the street, she still remembered Qiao'er running away, Xia Ran's closest person actually did this kind of thing, Ruan Mandong shuddered, and felt that this candidate must be chosen by himself.

Ke'an Xiaoyu is so good at pleasing people, she coaxed Ruan Mandong into obedience in three days, and it turned out that Ruan Mandong liked her more than Xia Ran.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of Mo Yi's birthday, Ruan Mandong prepared a moon-white dress for Xia Ran, with a cinched waist, a large swing, and small puff sleeves, which perfectly combined her purity and charm, and the jewelry was a set of white magnolia hairpins, which was far more clever than Qiao'er's aesthetic vision.

In order to cope with the dinner, Xia Ran was called up by Ruan Mandong early in the morning, bathing in fragrant soup, nailing, combing hair and makeup, and all kinds of troubles.

"Girl, my God, this ...... So beautiful! ”

An Xiaoyu's hands are very skillful, after she fiddles, the summer dye with the bun is like a nine-day fairy who has fallen into the mortal dust, An Xiaoyu was about to put on a white jade hairpin for her, but she saw the dark fragrance sent by Mo Xun.

Teng Longyu and Wenxiang Jade are both treasures of Ye Kingdom, so rare that ordinary people don't know them at all, this white jade also has a floral fragrance, and it is even more valuable, this jewelry is worth at least 100,000 taels of gold, Xia Quan has no financial resources to buy such jewelry for Xia Ran, An Xiaoyu's heart exploded, who is so generous!
