Chapter 93: Three Men and Three Women
Ling Yiyi secretly stretched out her thumb to Mo Lan, this Mo Lan is indeed a talent that can be created, look at how beautiful this is said, how kind she is, those endless food have also become subordinates and deliberately bought, it is really a benefit!
Mo Lan's eyes flashed a little proudly, which was a natural expression of recognition and praise by the young lady.
Ling Yiyi saw that Ma Chao was still kneeling there in a daze, sighed, and glanced at Tie Lan.
Heilan and Huilan divided their things, went straight back to Ling Yiyi's back, and dutifully stood behind the young lady.
Tie Lan turned his head and stuffed all the food in his arms into Mo Lan's arms, strode towards the horse with the hilt of the sword in his hand, and asked in a deep voice, "Ma Chao, what is the first condition to be obeyed as a guard?" ”
The first condition to be observed?
Ma Chaocheng's head spun quickly, and finally his eyes lit up and he remembered.
"It's to listen to the master's orders!"
That's right, the first condition for being a guard is to listen to the master's orders, anytime, anywhere, and take the master's orders as the first.
Thinking of this, Ma Chao was shocked, stood up from the ground with a bang, and walked straight to Ling Yiyi and saluted respectfully.
"Ma Chao disappointed Miss!"
This disappointment not only refers to the affairs of those guards, but also refers to the fact that he was so stupid that he did not listen to the orders of the young lady, and the fact that he did not enter the lake to save Ling Yiyi.
Ling Yiyi shrugged her shoulders indifferently, and took a few bags of food in her hand to Ma Chao, especially some snacks that were easy to swallow.
"Miss Ben is not disappointed in you, if she is disappointed, she is also disappointed in the guards who did not obey the order and left the Yilan Courtyard by themselves! You're fine with these six people, whatever the reason, you stayed, at least, you did what you were told! ”
Ling Yiyi pointed to a few bags of snacks suitable for the elderly, and said casually, "These bags of snacks are suitable for your mother, and Yilan Courtyard doesn't need to be cleaned, you can send it back to your mother now!" Accompany your mother well, and come back on duty tomorrow morning! ”
"But...... Miss Xie! Ma Chao looked at Ling Yiyi gratefully, thought about it with some embarrassment, and finally leaned over to salute before striding out of Yilan Courtyard with his things in his arms.
The other six people didn't get Ling Yiyi's consent, of course they wouldn't leave at will, but they were a little caught off by the things in their arms, standing in place anxiously, with a little hope in their eyes.
As guards, they usually live in the outer courtyard of the General's Palace, and they have two days off a month to go home to see their families.
This time, because of the eldest lady's fall into the lake, they were exempted from half a year's vacation by the old lady, and they were also fined three months' money.
Ling Yiyi felt their anticipation and eagerness, moved her red dress slowly, walked in front of a few people, and looked at them with a stern expression.
The appearance of these three men and three women is average, and there is nothing outstanding about it, only one of the guards is handsome, tall and strong, and there is some sassy posture in his demeanor, which shows that the upbringing of the family is also excellent.
The age of the three male guards is not much different, the men are all seventeen or eighteen years old, strong and powerful arms, should be people who have been exercising for a long time.
The women are all about fifteen years old, as beautiful as flowers, with average appearance, but with a maturity and stability.
At the same time as Ling Yiyi and them, they were also quietly looking at Ling Yiyi secretly.
Looking at the innocent smile of the eldest lady, thinking that half a month ago, it was this innocent and lovely eldest lady who vigorously and resolutely rectified the Yilan Courtyard, and while beating dozens of their guards and ten military sticks, she even beat the first-class maid next to her with herself, which shows her ruthlessness.
Ling Yiyi stood in place with a smile, letting them look at it, the corners of her mouth hooked up a faint smile, and her expression shook calmly as if General Ling Feng was close in front of her.
"What are the names of the few of you, I know that Miss Ben is making things difficult for you, so many people have left, why do you still stay? Miss Ben wants you to come from the truth, if it's true, Miss Ben will give you half a day off, let you go home like Ma Chao, if it's a lie, then continue to clean the yard here! Remember that Miss Ben wants to hear the truth, even if it doesn't matter how ugly it is! ”
Ling Yiyi accentuated the word 'truth', and her innocent smile became thicker and thicker.
The six of them glanced at each other, secretly pondering the truth of Ling Yiyi's words.
A male guard walked out first, and a slightly uneasy salute to Ling Yiyi with a fist, bowed his head and said, "The subordinate is called Lin Jie, I don't have any ideas, I just think that Miss has become responsible and assertive, I don't want to be punished by Miss, I just want to stay and see the situation, and the rest will be decided depending on the situation!" ”
Another female guard saw the man speak, raised her eyes uneasily and looked at Ling Yiyi, whose expression had not changed, and also said, "The slave maid is called the eldest girl, although the father is a fallen soldier, but the conditions at home are not good, the mother helps people do some work skills, the salary is very low, and there are brothers and sisters to support, the monthly money around the eldest lady is high in the whole Sheng'an, and the slave and maid don't want to lose this monthly money!" ”
The other male guard lowered his eyes, looked at the food bought by the eldest lady in his hand, raised his eyes that were shining with mist, and said loudly with some regret.
"The subordinate's name is Meng Qingyu, after his father died, his mother became sad and became ill, and finally followed his father, and his subordinates became orphans, so there was nowhere to go, so he wanted to live a good life."
Meng Qingyu regretted that his intentions were impure, but it was his most sincere thought before.
Another female guard also stood up, "The slave's name is Li Qin'er, and the reason why she didn't leave is because she wants to follow the eldest lady!" Do your best to protect the eldest lady! ”
The last female guard cautiously looked at Ling Yiyi's unchanged expression, thinking about whether to panic, but before she thought about it, she suddenly felt a chill on her body, and the whole person seemed to be overwhelmed by the invisible powerful momentum.
As soon as she looked up, she saw the dark gaze of the eldest lady sweeping over her, and the powerful force disappeared without a trace.
The female guard lowered her head a little frightened, "The slave maid, named Caiyue, wanted to come when she saw them leave, but when she saw Qing Yu not leaving, she thought that the young lady would be tortured now, so she was a little scared, so she stayed and took a look." ”
The more Caiyue spoke, the lower her head became, and her voice became smaller and smaller, she was afraid that her body was a little trembling, waiting for the eldest lady to get angry, but she never heard the eldest lady speak, and when she raised her eyes, the young lady's eyes were already staring at the last guard, and Song Yanlu's body suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
The eyes of the last remaining guard were like torches, and even if he was embarrassed to do the work for half a day, his face was calm and clean, and there was no decadence or other feelings on his face.
Ling Yiyi thought about it carefully, this guard should be the tallest and most handsome in the guards, and his temperament is also the best among these people, and even the perseverance and toughness in his eyes are also the best, and he may also be the most thoughtful!
Song Yanlu's expression remained unchanged like Ling Yiyi, standing respectfully and not humbly, with only a bag of food in his hand, which he took from Mo Lan himself, his bright eyes looked straight at Ling Yiyi, who kept looking at him but did not speak.
"The subordinate's name is Song Yanlu, and the subordinate also wants to leave, because the subordinate doesn't like the eldest lady's past actions, although it has changed now, but it is not the person whose subordinates want to be loyal! But his subordinates are manly husbands, and since he has joined the guards, of course he must abide by the duties and duties of the guards! ”
Song Yanlu said as he quietly looked at Ling Yiyi, and found that her eyes were as deep as a deep pool, and her heart chuckled, and her heart suddenly beat faster by a few beats, and she soon returned to normal, but her face did not show his panic.
After a little contemplation, he felt that the eldest lady had indeed become smart and wise, and what he said was true or false, I am afraid that the eldest lady already knew it in her heart, and she just wanted to wait for him to tell the truth!
