1173, the second son
- First settle people's hearts, and then order some detailed rules, in the courtyard, the servants of the Ye Mansion who had been kneeling in the rain and refused to get up were finally willing to disperse and return to their respective positions.
But there was one man, still standing still.
It's not that she refuses to leave, but the scope of her duties is actually in this courtyard.
Ruan Luo didn't say anything to instruct the servant to go back to his place, he walked down the steps slowly, looked at her, was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about something, and then smiled slightly, and said gently: "Thank you, you have opened your mouth three times, and what you say is very important." Without your help, I probably wouldn't have been able to convince everyone so easily. â
Xiao Yu then also walked down the steps, walked to Ruan Luo's side and stopped, she just saw the face of the Maiden in Mai in front of her, she couldn't help but be surprised: "Little girl? â
That's right, the girl in sackcloth standing at the back of the crowd, who seemed to be singing a "double reed play" with Ruan Luo, was the other of the two big girls in Ye Mansion, who often left a timid impression.
Xiao Yu's surprise did not affect Ruan Luo, and in fact, it was not that Ruan Luo was not surprised, but he found out early, and at this time, even if he was still surprised in his heart, he would no longer react as strongly as Xiao Yu.
In fact, when Ruan Luo found Xiaoya in the crowd for the first time just now, he almost thought that he had heard it wrong!
Seeing that Xiaoya was called by Xiaoyu, she actually seemed to be frightened, and her body couldn't help but tremble, Ruan Luo secretly had another thought in her heart.
After thinking for a moment, Ruan Luo smiled and said, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to believe that the little girl would actually be able to 'melt her voice'." â
Xiaoya smiled a little embarrassedly: "The maidservant didn't scare Ruan Gongzi, right?" At this point, her voice had reverted to her own timid tone.
Ruan Luo shook his head: "If the little girl sues me, and now you are also speaking in a 'huasheng', I will really be startled." â
Xiao Yu heard this sentence on the side, and when she understood the true intention of Ruan Luo's words, although she didn't speak, her heart tightened for a moment. She couldn't notice that when she looked at the little girl who had been a maid in Ye Mansion for many years, the look in her eyes was almost the same as Ruan Luo at this time.
It was a speculative look.
You must know that today is the first time that Xiaoya has shown her skills in front of outsiders. Ruan Luo is not from Ye Fuzhong, so it is normal that he doesn't know the past of this matter, but if even Xiaoyu doesn't know about it, then there will be some problems.
Xiaoya herself had already heard a few different intentions from Ruan Luo's words, but she couldn't fully understand what Ruan Luo wanted to say, so she could only wave her hand again and again, and her words were a little difficult to justify: "No, no, the maid is usually like this, only it was different just now." â
Her voice trembled a little, and her words were a little inaccurate, not at all as coherent and to the point as she had said before when she "turned her voice". I don't know if she's in a hurry, or if she's really in a weak heart.
Ruan Luo shook his head again when he heard this, he didn't know if he was denying Xiaoya's words, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "'Turning the voice' is a skill that can be learned, but what the little girl said just now is impeccable in content, and the timing of the voice is also very accurate, are you ...... Who's the guide? â
"No, no......" Listening to Ruan Luo's words at this point, Xiaoya had vaguely understood some of the questions that Ruan Luo was questioning. She first directly denied it, hesitated for a moment, and then knelt down in front of Ruan Luo, and said seriously: "What the maid said just now is what she wants to say, and it has nothing to do with others. The maidservant girl just wants to do something for the house, and if she does something wrong, she is willing to be punished by Ruan Gongzi. â
"If you do this for the sake of Ye Mansion, I don't blame you, and I won't ask you anymore, otherwise, ......" Ruan Luo suddenly paused at this point, and then changed his words, "In your place, there shouldn't be a zĂ i 'otherwise', you get up." â
Xiaoya showed a hesitant look on her face, and then she saw Xiaoyu take a step and help her up.
"In the future, when you speak to me, whether you have made a mistake or not, you do not have to do this great gift." Ruan Luo looked at the two girls who were supporting each other in front of him, his words paused slightly, and then he continued solemnly: "Little girl, you did something wrong, but not to me, but to your sisters. Your kneeling today should be regarded as making amends to her. â
When Ruan Luo said this, although the smile on his face was suppressed, his tone did not seem to be too harsh, but Xiaoya couldn't stop tears from flowing down when his words fell.
She didn't cry because she felt wronged after listening to Ruan Luo's words, but she suddenly felt very sorry for Xiaoyu beside her.
Xiaoyu just thought that the little girl who was very timid in her impression was frightened by Ruan Luo at this time, and she didn't care about what Ruan Luo pointed out just now, what was the place where Xiaoya was sorry for her.
To be honest, Xiaoyu and Ruan Luo are not familiar with each other, Xiaoyu's impression of Ruan Luo is still only at the level of watching and listening, except for knowing that he is the righteous brother of his own young lady, and just now when he was in the same car on the way home, he chatted a few words, and felt that he was a very gentle person, so he had no in-depth experience.
Overall, he should be a good person to work with.
It's just that seeing him ask the little girl in a few words, the sharpness of his observation, and the closeness of his thinking, still make Xiaoyu a little jealous.
With such a touch of affection in her heart, thinking back to the words of the last servant, that is, the little girl after the "Yinyin", when Ruan Luo was talking to a group of servants just now, and the answer given by Ruan Luo, her feelings in her heart gradually changed a little.
If Ruan Luo hadn't explained it before, the reason why he was willing to take full responsibility for the affairs of the Ye Mansion was to repay Ye Zhengming's life-saving grace, Xiaoyu would probably feel that Ruan Luo's enthusiasm was a little "too much" at this time, just like Xiaoya was puzzled in the back of the crowd just now.
At the same time, she was a little surprised: Xiaoya actually thought more deeply about this problem than herself!
It's no wonder that Ruan Luo asked her just now if she was instructed by others. can say what he just said, no matter from which point of view, it is too inconsistent with the image of Xiaoya who usually has a very weak sense of zĂ i in the house.
Seeing Xiaoyu looking at her in a daze, Xiaoya panicked, and finally couldn't help it, and said with a crying voice: "Sister Yu, it's me who is not good, I shouldn't hide it from you, but I don't have any malice in learning 'Huayin'." It's because I'm so lonely, usually you and Miss are not at home, even if the lord goes to the court, he also leaves the house to go to the doctor, I am home alone, I can't find anyone to talk to, so I have to talk to myself......"
Hearing Xiaoya's words clear, Xiaoyu couldn't help but be moved.
Xiaoya cried and continued: "But...... What's the point of talking to yourself? So I can only think back and imitate other people's words, especially some of the guests who occasionally visit the house, they are all officials, and when they speak, I feel curious, so I also learned some ......"
Ruan Luo, who was silently watching this scene, suddenly interjected at this time: "Little girl, with your natural talent, if you have the opportunity, you may be able to get a position as a lawyer." â
The little girl couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, and after a while, she said with jealousy: "Isn't it ridiculous to talk to yourself like this?" If others find out, they will compare me to a psychopath, and how can I compare with a lawyer. â
A gentle smile appeared on Ruan Luo's face, and he didn't speak again.
It was Xiaoyu who suddenly understood, she first glanced at Ruan Luo, handed over her gratitude, and then turned her eyes to look at Xiaoya, and said in a reproachful tone: "You are really a fool, just because of this, you are hiding it from everyone?" â
Xiaoya flattened her mouth, with her current mood, it was really easy to take Xiaoyu's anger as real anger.
Seeing that Xiaoya's face showed a timid look again, Xiaoyu sighed softly, took out a silk handkerchief from her sleeve and carefully wiped the tears on her face, and said softly: "Even if you sue me for this, I won't laugh at you, on the contrary, if I had known earlier, maybe I would have paid attention to spending more time with you." As for Miss, she is young and likes to mess around, but you won't know that she had a time when she messed around really badly? She just thought it was fun. â
"Really?" The little girl's eyes gradually appeared with water.
"Really." Xiao Yu nodded, and the corners of her eyes were already wet.
"You guys are really ...... Dislike! Although Xiaoya was saying that she hated Xiaoyu, she had already thrown herself into Xiaoyu's arms, hugged her waist and cried, continuing to speak angrily, "You always play tricks on me, I don't know when you are telling the truth...... Is...... It's so bad......"
Xiaoyu also hugged Xiaoya tightly, letting her be angry for a while, and only after listening to her crying gradually calm down a little, she laughed again: "Oh, tell me, who are you imitating now?" Why is it so heavy? â
As soon as her words fell, she felt the body of the person in her arms stagnate.
Immediately afterwards, Xiaoya broke free from her arms, with tears in the corners of her eyes, but she pretended to be displeased and glared at her, endured it, but only held back a rather childish sentence: "I'm too lazy to tell you." â
Xiaoyu was about to joke with her a few times, and suddenly found that Ruan Luo had quietly left without knowing when, she immediately stared and put away her heart of playing.
Xiaoya also discovered this, pulled her sleeves to wipe the tears on her face, straightened her mind, and then said seriously: "Gongzi Ruan is a careful person, our Ye Mansion has him to preside over major affairs for the time being, there shouldn't be any big problems, but he is not familiar with this place, Sister Yu had better follow him more closely and be her helper." â
Xiaoyu hesitated: "What about you?" â
"I'll be your helper." Xiaoya thought for a while, and continued with a serious expression: "Ruan Gongzi just said that I have the talent of a lawyer, in fact, that is to relax my heart, I will only copy other people's words, but the imitation can still be a little similar, so I will do all the affairs of the Ye Mansion, I will do what I have to do, if Sister Yu can't find a servant for a while, just call me at any time." â
Xiaoya's words aroused a thousand waves in Xiaoyu's heart, and she couldn't help but lose her voice: "This is for you...... I've wronged you so much. â
"Nope." Xiaoya shook her head and said with a smile: "I just hope that Ye Fu can quickly return to its previous state, if I can do something about it, what kind of grievance is it?" â
Her eyes suddenly darkened: "I don't like the current atmosphere in the house, if I can go back to the past, even if you and Miss will play tricks on me even more than before, I don't care." â
"No, it won't." Xiaoyu held Xiaoya's hand, her voice was slightly deep, and she seemed to be about to cry, "Today's matter, in the future, at the right time, I will seriously tell Miss to listen, and I will seriously worship you as sisters in the future, you will not be so lonely, let's work together, and Yefu will slowly get better!" â
"Hmm!" Xiaoya nodded convincingly.
When people are vulnerable and helpless, they need to be actively encouraged, but the person who gives encouragement must have a certain amount of emotion that makes the encouraged person trust and rely on, and the words of encouragement she utters will have strength.
At this time, Xiaoya and Xiaoyu have removed the most difficult barrier between each other, and the trust between the two has been further improved, but there is no distinction between primary and secondary, this kind of trust and support is evenly resonant with each other.
Sometimes, however, such a mutually supportive relationship may be more positive and lasting than a primary relationship in which one can only speak and one can only obey.
âŚâŚ
After releasing the last trace of suspicion in their hearts, a pair of sisters only spoke softly and caressed a few words, and then returned to their "positions".
The little girl went back to the kitchen to continue boiling medicine, a master's medicine, a young lady's medicine, all of them were not slacking off.
Xiaoyu followed Xiaoya's construction to find Ruan Luo. The Ye Mansion is not big, but after Xiaoyu disappeared Ruan Luo, she didn't know what guidance she received, and the first thing that came to mind was to go outside the mansion to look for it.
But it was a coincidence, as soon as she stepped out of the gate of Yefu, she saw Ruan Luo standing not far away, watching a carriage leave.
Seeing the pair of maid sisters crying in the courtyard before, Ruan Luo consciously walked away. He likes to distinguish between emotion and reason very clearly, and feels that he is actually a helper in front of Ye Fu's affairs. Even if he can integrate into the living atmosphere of the Ye family in the future, it is impossible for him to be so close in just spending a day today.
Xiaoya and Xiaoyu, the big girls of Yefu, must have been together for a few years. And from the crying words of the two of them just now, it is not difficult for Ruan Luo to see that the sisterhood between the two of them is not unusual. Therefore, the two sisters may have something to say, they are a foreign man, so they should not stay there without leaving, so as not to let others think about others when they want to talk.
In addition, Ruan Luo also has some things to deal with at home.
He thought that he might not be able to go back today, if he wanted to go back now, he was also a little worried about the Ye Mansion...... R1152
