Chapter 38: Choosing a Servant

You Xiaoya took the tea cup handed by Xiao Cui'er, the tea was fragrant, but the temperature in this scorching afternoon was still not very pleasant, so You Xiaoya only smelled the smell and put it on the small table, and only waited for it to cool down a little before tasting it.

"Little Cui'er, are these fruits all from the town?" When You Xiaoya put down the cup, she touched the fruit plate on the side, and the slightest coolness was quite comfortable.

"Mrs. Hui, the town." Xiao Cui'er replied softly.

"It's cool." You Xiaoya picked up a round grape in it, and said while peeling it, the appearance is very approachable.

"Little hearted, madam, let's still serve the slave and maid." Xiao Cui'er saw You Xiaoya doing it herself, so she hurriedly stepped forward to serve.

In You Xiaoya's view, some things can change with the change of time, environment and identity, such as age, appearance or thoughts, but some things are deep-rooted, no matter how the outside world changes, it is impossible to change, that is, the modern life concept formed by her life for nearly 30 years.

So she has always liked to do her own thing, no matter what, she can't accept the set of things that people serve in everything, like this ordinary moment, or some small things like peeling grapes, she is still willing to do it herself, except for pretending to be thirteen, of course.

"Tsubaki is going to fetch some water." Seeing You Xiaoya like this, Xiao Cui'er didn't say anything more, took a step back and whispered a word to the little maid behind her.

"Yes" Tsubaki nodded, turned around and ran towards the house.

Xiao Chun is a person who came from the Jin family in the capital with You Xiaoya, last night Zhou's mother conducted a screening on this line, Xiao Chun was originally an old lady like Xiao Cui'er, but watching Xiao Cui'er surrender to You Xiaoya's command, and Zhou's mother also told her a lot of powerful relationships.

So she just thought about it, and also recognized the master, and now she has become You Xiaoya's personal maid with Xiao Cui'er.

You Xiaoya peeled two grapes to eat, the cold and sour taste was quite heat-dissipating, but she had never had much interest in food that was too cold, and most of the grapes at this time were still too sour, so just when she was about to wipe her hands with a handkerchief, Xiao Cui'er handed her a warm moistened cloth.

After wiping her hands, You Xiaoya raised her eyes and looked towards the courtyard. At this time, Zhou's mother had already selected two little girls and a girl, and there were already seven or eight people who were excluded.

You Xiaoya has always been suspicious of people and not suspicious of people, so since she asked Zhou's mother to take care of the people in Hanxiangyuan, she believed her, and at this time she leisurely ate snacks and pastries.

And Zhou's mother is worthy of being a mother who has been a nurse in everyone's hospital for many years, and her eyesight is still good, so it didn't take a while to select six maids and seven little maids, You Xiaoya raised her eyes to see that those people were indeed quite smart.

"Madame, the old slave picked out a few, and asked Madame to look at them." Finally, after a glance, she found that there were indeed no good seedlings in this group of girls, so Zhou's mother bowed to You Xiaoya.

You Xiaoya nodded, put down the half-eaten lotus seed cake in her hand, Xiao Cui'er handed her the handkerchief, she wiped it briefly, and then straightened her clothes and sat upright.

"Let them come."

"Yes" Zhou's mother responded, and at the end she beckoned to the eight people who had just been picked out, signaling them all to come over.

After a while, the thirteen people stood in a row in front of You Xiaoya. You Xiaoya roughly went over the faces of several of them, and finally spoke:

"Since you are all people elected by Zhou's mother, I believe that there are places where she can take a fancy to you, now I need a few smart people who can be sent in Hanxiangyuan, there are not many things in the hospital, most of you can do your own work.

Mother Zhou will arrange this for you, and if you don't understand, ask her. Mrs. Ben's temperament is not very good, and there are a lot of rumors in the courtyard in the past two days," Speaking of this, You Xiaoya's voice paused, and her calm eyes glanced around, and naturally saw that many people in the courtyard shrank for a moment, but she didn't care much about it.

After a while, she spoke again, "I don't care what you do outside to pass on Mrs. Ben, but in my Hanxiang Courtyard, it's better not to let me hear such a voice." ”

You Xiaoya always speaks calmly, and she always has no expression on her face, so as soon as she said this, it made everyone's scalp tingle, as if as long as she heard something she shouldn't hear, she didn't say much, just waiting for bad luck.

"Do you remember what Madame said?" Mother Zhou saw that everyone was a little frightened, and when she came back to her senses, she said a word to the thirteen people in a tone.

"Remember!" Several people were bluffed by You Xiaoya, and they were drunk by Zhou's mother, and they all came back to their senses, and hurriedly responded in unison.

"Madam, I'm going to send these people out, right?" At this time, Jin Shouzhong, who was waiting on the side, looked at the rest of the people in the courtyard, and bowed to You Xiaoya and asked.

You Xiaoya bowed her head, and by the way, she raised her eyes to look at the group of people, but she didn't want to see a guy who was not tall, and his face was anxious and lost in that group, and for a while she felt a little familiar. After thinking about it for a while, it came to me that this should be the little guy who helped Xue'er help her get the account book yesterday.

Looking at him like this, does he want to stay in her yard?

"Alright, let's all get out." Jin Shouzhong got You Xiaoya's approval, waved his hand, and asked them all to hurry out.

Being shouted by Jin Shouzhong, the little guy became more and more anxious, first he leaned back, as if he could stay in this courtyard, but this group of people was going to leave the courtyard after all, so no matter how far back, it was still his turn to walk to the gate of the courtyard.

Across the distance of most of the courtyard, You Xiaoya seemed to feel the heavy and unknown loss on his body, and was about to understand why he came, but he didn't want that kid to seem to be bold and determined, and glanced back in the direction of You Xiaoya.

How could he have thought that You Xiaoya had been watching him? So when he made eye contact with You Xiaoya, he was stunned for a moment, and in a blink of an eye, he laughed happily as if he had encountered a big good thing, and the little tiger teeth bent his eyebrows were quite pleasing.

"Little Bean, what are you still standing for? Why don't you go quickly? At this time, most of the people were out of the courtyard, so Xiaodouzi's appearance of standing at the door and smirking was too abrupt, so Jin Shouzhong hurriedly drank at him.

"Oh, let's go, let's go!" Xiaodouzi's anxiety and loss seemed to be just a passing moment, and at this time, even when he was yelled at by Jin Shouzhong, he still looked like he was smiling, and he saluted You Xiaoya as he spoke.

"You stay." I don't know for what reason, You Xiaoya left him behind.
