Chapter 45: The New Maid
Chapter 45 The Father Visits
The summer rain always comes and goes in a hurry.
The next morning, it was sunny again. There are no water stains on the road surface for a long time.
It was only morning, but it was uncomfortably hot.
After having breakfast with his grandmother and amusing her for a while, Yuan Shanjia went back to his courtyard and lazily reclined on the couch to read.
The sound of the piano came from the opposite courtyard.
"The eldest lady is doing morning class again." Qing'er sighed.
"Yes, my sister is really hardworking." Yuan Shanjia nodded while reading, a little perfunctory.
The easy days were coming to an end, and she still took this opportunity to rest more.
Qing'er looked at her sitting without a sitting statue, lying without a lying statue, and felt helpless.
She had never seen such a girl, although it was nice to say that the young lady was lying like this, but was it really good to have no rules like this?
"Miss, Qin Mo brought the girl he met before." A rough little maid came over to report, interrupting Qing'er's contemplation.
"Let Qin Mo come in." When Yuan Shanjia heard this, he hurriedly sat upright.
Qing'er was a little puzzled, was it because Qin Mo was by the old lady's side, and the young lady was afraid that the old lady would know, so she was so serious?
"Second Miss Ann." Qin Mo greeted him when he met.
"Qin Mo'an." Yuan Shanjia replied, but his eyes were on Qin Mo's back, "Qin Mo's coming this time, but what does grandmother command?" ”
Qin Mo first nodded, and then shook his head, "This time the old slave came over on the orders of the old lady, but it was not a big deal. It's just that the maid I met on the way to Zhuangzi before had already been trained, and the old lady asked the old slave to send it over. ”
"Oh? This is the maid? Yuan Shanjia looked at the low-eyed woman behind Qin Mo and asked curiously.
"Yes, Second Miss." Qin Mo nodded and let him come, "Come and salute the second young lady." ”
The woman behind her came over and saluted.
Qin Mo knocked the maid in front of Yuan Shanjia, "In the future, the second young lady will be your master." No matter where you came from before, and no matter what your identity was before, but from today on, you are the maid of Miss Er, everything is based on Miss Er, and all decisions are based on Miss Er's wishes. Did you know? ”
"Yes." The woman was respectful, dull and boring.
"Please also ask the second lady to give this maid a name." Qin was afraid that Yuan Shanjia would not know the rules, so he reminded.
Yuan Shanjia nodded, "Then let's call it Ran Zhu." ”
"Thank you, Miss, for the name." Ran Zhu got the name and thanked him.
"Then miss, the old slave will retire first." Qin Mo saw that Ran Zhu was quite respectful, and there was nothing wrong with him, so he retired.
"Well, Qin Mo walks slowly." Yuan Shanjia nodded.
"Qing'er, you go and get me some fruit, I've been reading the book for so long, and I'm feeling a little hungry." Yuan Shanjia commanded.
Qing'er was a little puzzled, how did the young lady think of eating fruit and not ask for ice? She usually had to be dissuaded in various ways, so she ate less. Has the sun risen in the west? Or sick?
"Miss, don't you add ice today?" Qing'er asked, just in case.
When Yuan Shanjia heard this, she secretly screamed badly, and quietly looked at Ran Zhu, and sure enough, her face changed a little.
"No, it's not too hot today, so don't add ice." Yuan Shanjia smiled on his face, but he burst into tears in his heart.
After Qing'er went out, Ran Zhu naturally closed the door, and then returned to his original position, without speaking or looking at Yuan Shanjia.
Yuan Shanjia felt that the room was eerily quiet.
She bit the handkerchief in her heart and looked at Ran Zhu with a smile, "Ran Zhu, you're finally here." ”
Ran Zhu nodded, "Hmm." ”
"Ran Zhu, why don't you speak?" Yuan Shanjia asked, feeling that something bad was about to happen.
"There's not much to say." Ran Zhu's voice did not change at all.
Yuan Shanjia's heart is broken, it's over! Provoked the housekeeper's wife!
She pushed the fruit bowl in front of Ran Zhu, "You eat a little, the road must be hard." ”
Ran Zhu said: "It's not hard, Miss is hard." ”
Yuan Shanjia lowered his face and decided to know the current affairs as Junjie, so he blushed his face and pulled Ran Zhu over, "Ran Zhu ~ I know it's wrong ~ I won't dare next time." I'll definitely eat less ice in the future! ”
Ran Zhu was silent.
Yuan Shanjia gritted his teeth, "Just eat one bowl." ”
Ran Zhu raised his eyelids and glanced at her, then lowered his eyes again.
Yuan Shanjia was about to cry, "I'll never eat it again!" ”
"It was the young lady herself." Ran Zhu looked at Yuan Shanjia's eyes, his eyes were full of stubbornness.
"Hmm." Yuan Shanjia tore the handkerchief in his heart, Ran Zhu was too cruel, woo woo.
"Miss, I'm back." Qing'er walked in with a plate of plums.
Yuan Shanjia hurriedly sat down, picked up the book, and pretended to continue reading.
Ran Zhu retreated to the side of the small table next to the collapse and stood quietly.
Yuan Shanjia looked at the plums, a little strange, "Where did the plums come from?" ”
She remembered that there were no plums in Yundu, and the area around it was not very suitable for growing plums. Therefore, it is rare to have a plum fruit in Yundu.
Generally, those who have Zhuangzi in the south will eat something fresh.
Ran Zhu wiped the water of the plum with a silk scarf and handed it to Yuan Shanjia, who naturally took it and ate it.
When Qing'er saw Ran Zhu's behavior, she was a little relieved that the new maid was smart and clever for a while, and for a while she felt a sense of crisis.
She glanced at Ran Zhu and replied with a smile: "When the slave went to get it, she happened to meet Cui'er loading the plate, and when she saw the slave and maid going over, she knew that the slave and maid wanted to take the fruit, so she gave the slave and the maid a plate, saying that the old lady just ordered you to load a plate over." ”
"It was my grandmother who ordered it. Grandmother is so nice! Yuan Shanjia squinted while eating plums.
The plum is sweet and sour, it should be refreshed by the well water, some of it is cool and silky, and it is very delicious.
She couldn't help but stretch out her hand, and Ran Zhu put another one in her hand.
"The old lady loves the young lady the most." Qing'er echoed.
"Uh-huh." Yuan Shanjia squinted pleasantly and nodded.
Yuan Shanjia ate three or four in a row, and wanted to eat again, but was stopped by a hand.
She looked up, and Ran Zhu looked at her calmly, "Miss, don't eat too much." ”
Yuan Shanjia choked and wanted to say something, but when he remembered what he had done before, he felt a little weak, so he had to compromise.
Seeing this, Qing'er felt a little uncomfortable, why did a new maid actually control the young lady? The young lady has suffered so much, she should enjoy it.
What's more, it's just a few plums, so what's the matter if you eat more, the Yuan family can't afford it.
Ran Zhu seemed to sense Qing'er's thoughts, glanced up at her, lowered his head calmly, and silently pushed Li Zi away.
Qing'er felt that her status as a big girl had been shaken, and frowned.
This Ran Zhu seems to be a little disobedient, is it really good for the old lady to arrange it in the young lady's room? And a person of unknown origin does not know what his intentions are. Miss is so simple, I must take a good look at it.
Poor Qing'er didn't know that she had been deceived by the surface of her own lady, and she cared for her and thought about her wholeheartedly.
