Since the three of them had already gone ashore and the fishing was nearing the end, Lin Yu led Xiu'er and walked back with apricots and Ling'er.

asked Xiu'er all the way how she has been doing in the past few years? Xiu'er is now nine years old, although she was held by Lin Yu, but she was still restrained, so she asked and answered, and told Lin Yu's distant uncle and aunt that he was kind-hearted and treated her well

Xingzi Ling'er returned to the flower hall, Lin Yu asked Xiu'er to follow them, and she went straight to the stove room, and saw that Zhang's and other rough daughters-in-law had carried hot water to Yan Gu's three-person room, so she instructed Aunt Lu to let her boil some nourishing and damp soup out, and after Yan Gu and Wa Qi'er finished bathing, it was good to drink and keep warm.

Finally, he turned around and went back to the flower hall.

Apricot and Ling'er were doing needlework, Xiu'er was standing aside, and faintly heard Apricot asking Xiu'er to sit down, so she didn't have to wait on the side, but Xiu'er whispered back with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and said that her mother said that she was here to serve the three girls, and she couldn't sit together.

When Xingzi and Ling'er heard this, she didn't have to listen to her mother's words, and she didn't need to treat herself as a subordinate, but Xiu'er shook her head again and again, saying that it was not in accordance with the rules

Seeing that the three of you pushed me, Lin Yu walked in, and did not persuade Xiu'er to sit down with Xingzi Ling'er, but just pretended not to hear the words of a few people, and asked Xiu'er to go to the stove room to help Aunt Lu with a smile.

Xiu'er was relieved, hurriedly said yes, and hurriedly went out.

Lin Yu sat next to the apricots and Ling'er, and saw that the apricots were embroidered with a juanpa, and Ling'er was playing a knot. She twisted a piece of well-made yarn and played with it, and after looking at it carefully, she also became interested, and asked Ling'er to teach her.

Ling'er picked out the color line. Teaching Lin Yu hand in hand, the two of them were teaching energetically, so they listened to Apricot ask on the side: "Sister Xiaoyu, Xiu'er is very well-behaved, why didn't you let her sit just now, and asked her to go to the stove room to help?"

The tone was not questioning, but full of curiosity.

Lin Yu waited for a while before he heard Apricot ask what was in his heart. couldn't help laughing: "Why, Xiu'er can't go to the stove room to help?" ”

"No, I'm just curious. You often say that everyone is equal, but just now you heard us persuading Xiu'er to sit, but instead of helping us, you asked her to go to the stove room to help. So. I can't figure it out," Kyoko stopped the needle and thread in her hand and looked at the forest fish full of questions.

"Silly girl, I said that everyone is equal, and I don't look down on Xiu'er, nor do I look down on everyone invited by our courtyard, it's just apricots, human dignity is not given by others, you have to fight for it yourself. You also have to see your own position, you know that you have persuaded Xiu'er for so long just now. Why did she keep refusing? ”

Speaking of this, Lin Yu's hand stopped, looked at the apricot, saw her shake her head, and then continued to weave the color line in her hand: "That's because Xiu'er is smart, she knows what position she is standing in now, although we can not treat her as a subordinate, but she is not moved in her heart, but restrains herself from letting herself go beyond the rules, so ah, whether it is her or us, we have to be like her, do our duty, so as not to make mistakes, and then harm yourself"

"Sister Xiaoyu, you're not scaring me, are you? Let Xiu'er sit for a while, how could she make a mistake and hurt herself? Apricot smiled questioningly.

"Apricot, I know you don't believe it, but now that I'm here, Sister Xiaoyu will simply let you understand" Seeing that Apricot didn't believe it, Lin Yu shook his head with a smile, put down the colored thread in his hand, and said to Apricot and Ling'er seriously: "Although we don't have to worry about food and clothing, our lives are better than those in the ordinary market, but it's worse than the big families, you don't know, there are all kinds of people in this world, and you must not believe in it because of the goodwill on the faces of others, but fortunately, we are born in a small family, If you are born in a high-ranking family, with a heart like us, you may be framed if you are not careful, and it is difficult to lose your life."

Seeing that Xingzi and Ling'er's eyes widened when they heard this, she continued: "There are quite a lot of servants in the high-ranking family, and there may be a lot of first, second and third class maids around each master, and some masters look at people who are not pleasing to the eye, and may make the plan pretend to treat you well regardless of dignity and inferiority, so that you lose your mentality and self-righteousness, and you can't recognize your position, and finally offend the nobles, and then you can't even save your life."

"But we're not like that, and we're not trying to frame Xiu'er," Kyoko anxiously defended.

"Of course I know that you are kind, but although our family is not prominent, but now we will meet some dignitaries, since Xiu'er is with us, maybe one day it is possible to meet them, in case she is used to being free in front of us, so she offends people, at that time, we can't save her, but it will hurt her"

Lin Yu's words are actually a little too strict, although the one she assumed may be very small, but she feels that in her position, they can not be Xiu'er or the long-term workers in the family are not subordinates, but they should still abide by the rules, over time, so that they will not make the master feel unorthodox and no longer trust them, but also let them protect themselves, and they can stay here for a long time

Apricot was still ignorant, Yan Gu Xuanwa and Qi'er had already taken a bath and came to the flower hall refreshingly.

Both Bolt Wa and Qi'er wrapped their heads with clean cloths, but Yan Gu pinched the dry handkerchief and came in with her wet hair.

"You" Seeing Yan Gu like this, Lin Yu was about to scold him for why he didn't wrap his hair first like Bolt Wa and Qi'er, so that the water on his hair would not soak his clothes.

As soon as she said the word you, Yan Gu handed over the handkerchief from afar, and said as he walked: "Why are you giving me hair?"

Lin Yu saw that he looked like he was determined that he would help him wring his head and cock, not only was he angry and wanted to refuse, but he was afraid that he would have a cold because his hair was soaked in his jacket, so he hatefully took Bupa, and then pushed him around fiercely, making him turn his back on him.

Yan Gu stumbled and almost tripped over, turned his head angrily and shouted, "Why are you pushing me?"

Lin Yu ignored him, hooked a spring stool with his foot, and ordered: "Sit down!" If you talk nonsense, you'll make it yourself."

"You!" Yan Gu stared at Lin Yu hatefully, but in the end, he succumbed to her obscenity and sat down on the stool obediently.

The two spoke viciously to each other, looking like Yan Gu was tall, but he was defeated, and several people on the side laughed sullenly.

Lin Yu also laughed, but Yan Gu glanced at Bolt Wa, Qi'er, Xingzi and Ling'er one by one with angry eyes. Several people were forced to bury their heads and stop looking at him, but they did not stop laughing. (To be continued......)
