Chapter 5: Listen
The clear and snow-white juice in the bowl of water in front of him looked calm.
"Thank you." Fourth Master Chen said, and took a few sips in one go.
Good! Good! Good!
Every line on his face was a compliment.
The maidservant smiled and got up and moved away.
Steward Cao on the side was a little stunned, why is this scorpion just a bowl? What about me?
"Master Chen is a guest, Cao is in charge, and he is his own person, so he will be lazy, otherwise, the lady is not easy to coax." The maidservant said apologetically.
Didn't you say you didn't know each other? At this time, he became his own person again?
Steward Cao only felt that his mouth was full of bitterness, he looked at the side of the screen, and looked at the girl through the screen and looked at himself.
The shadow is sufficient, and the description is not clear.
Chen Siye drank the bowl of water in one go, only to feel that his whole body was smooth, and it seemed that the anxiety and fatigue since his father's illness had been swept away.
"What is this? So delicious. He couldn't help but ask.
"Snow bubble shrinking drink." The maidservant said, looking back at the screen, "That's what it's called, isn't it?" Wife? ”
"Yes." Cheng Jianniang said.
Strange name, Chen Siye glanced at the bowl and wanted to have another bowl, but when he saw the look in the eyes of Steward Cao next to him, he put away his thoughts.
It is better to be content.
"What are you looking for me to do?" Cheng Jianniang asked on the screen.
Chen Siye was a little happy in his heart, it was really good, he just wanted to open his mouth, and this woman spoke first, although it was a little inexplicably weird, but she spoke simply and directly, saving trouble.
"Lady, my father wants to ask you to heal and save his life." He said respectfully. Bow down.
There was silence behind the screen.
"I want a snack." Cheng Jianniang said suddenly.
Chen Siye on the outside looked slightly stiff.
"Okay." The maidservant said at once, and removed a box from the side shelf. Picked it up, "Which one does the lady want to eat?" ”
Muttering, this was sent by the fairy Gu yesterday. Which one was sent the day before yesterday, this red salt, that white sun, and honey fried, which one do you want to eat?
What is this, why did you talk about it again? It's talking to guests.
Chen Siye looked at Steward Cao, his eyes expressing impatience.
Steward Cao sighed, since he came in, he couldn't help but speak, otherwise he would have been so attentive to the Chen family for so long.
"Lady, Mrs. Chen is as sick as a fire, so she came all the way to invite her. Please also ask the lady to save her life quickly. He said respectfully.
The little daughter inside was interrupted from talking.
"Who is Mrs. Chen?" Cheng Jianniang asked.
As long as you answer normally, Chen Siye breathed a sigh of relief.
"My father wrote a letter to my mother, I wonder if my mother has read it?" He asked hurriedly, looking at the maidservant behind the screen.
"Oh, I forgot." The maidservant replied suddenly, "The lady is asleep, I put it away, I'll go and get it." ”
She hurried out of the room, flipped on the table for a moment. Take a letter out of a book.
"That's it." She said happily.
Fourth Master Chen nodded hurriedly and said yes.
"I'll listen to it." Cheng Jianniang said inside.
The maid opened it in response, her expression was slightly surprised, and there were only a few big words on the paper, scribbled. Trembling, it seems to have been written in a hurry.
"Road rain, broken temple. I was given red bean cake and rice wine, saying that I didn't believe it. Those who cannot repent bow down. ”
The handmaid reads.
What do you mean? She was puzzled and couldn't help but look at Cheng Jianniang.
Cheng Jianniang tilted her head and seemed to think for a moment.
"I don't know what to do." She sat upright and said.
The three were stunned.
Oh yes. This lady doesn't seem to be stupid, but she is not in good health, has a poor memory, and only remembers things within a few days.
Steward Cao remembered the instructions.
"And that book, that, I'll give it to you too, Miss Banqin said, if the lady doesn't understand," he said hurriedly. "Just look at this, if it's ......"
Before he could finish his words, two female voices in the room snorted at the same time.
"Me?"
"Half celery?"
Steward Cao, who shouted, was taken aback.
"How do you know that my name is Banqin?" The maidservant asked happily, her eyes lit up.
"Half celery, half celery." Cheng Jianniang also shouted, as if she heard something happy.
The voices of the two women were just voices, but Steward Cao felt that his ears were buzzing, and his brain was a little messy.
"No, no, isn't the girl's name Banqin?" He hurriedly said, "There is a girl in my family, no, it's not my family, it was originally a lady's, lady, remember?" ”
What? Fourth Master Chen frowned.
"What are you talking about?" The maidservant asked, "I don't understand." ”
Actually, I don't get it either...
Steward Cao swallowed his saliva, his throat was already sore, and he had to say so many words.
"The girl came to the lady later, right? Originally a lady...," he said.
"Yes, yes, I came here ten days ago, and my grandfather asked me to come, and the lady's original girl followed my grandfather, and the grandfather asked me to serve the lady." The maidservant said enthusiastically, "Do you know my grandfather?" My grandfather's surname is Zhang ......"
Who cares if your grandfather's surname is Zhang or He!
Where is this going on?
Steward Cao couldn't help coughing lightly, and felt more and more that his brain was messing around.
"Oh yes, yes, that, what a coincidence, speaking of Banqin, the lady's original girl was called Banqin." He hurriedly picked up the conversation and said.
"Yes, the girl who left with our grandfather is called Banqin, and you know this!" The maid was even more surprised, and said happily, knelt down and sat down, with a bit of a long talk, "From such a distance, you know the lady's affairs clearly, that Sister Banqin is very powerful, my grandfather ......"
"No, not that." Steward Cao sat up straight in a hurry, and hurriedly interrupted the girl's words, "It's not that I followed your grandfather, but the one who followed our sixth son." ”
The maid seemed puzzled.
"Huh? Banqin still followed your sixth son? "I didn't hear her." ”
Steward Cao's throat was smoking.
"It's not the half-celery, is it?" He asked, also a little confused.
How many semi-celery are there? Why is it called Banqin?
When he came, didn't Qin Langjun remind him that after Banqin left, the newly added girl here was also called Banqin, so isn't this Banqin the same Banqin? Could it be that another half-celery has popped up?
What are you doing?
"Which half-celery is that? Didn't you say the original half-celery? The maidservant was also very surprised, glared at her and asked, "Why can't you speak clearly?" ”
Steward Cao wanted to shed tears, but he couldn't help but reach out and cover his throat.
"Girl, can you, give me a glass of water to drink first?" He finally couldn't hold it anymore and said in a dumb voice.
The handmaid sighed.
"You want to drink water, why didn't you say it earlier." She smiled, with a little complaint, "You are a member of your mother's family, you are your own person, you come here to come to the house, don't be restrained, just say what you want, be polite." ”
Yes, yes, I'm not restrained, you're welcome, please hurry up and give me a glass of water, I'm going to die.
Steward Cao clutched his throat with his hand and nodded painfully.
Chen Siye on the side felt that his throat hurt when he looked at it.
It's miserable, fortunately I'm a guest, but fortunately, this young master knows a little bit of hospitality, otherwise... (To be continued......)
