Qianrou stepped forward and explained: "The cuckoo is a new maid in the house, and the old lady thinks that the young lady is about to get married, and there will be more trivial matters in a few days, and the cuckoo is diligent, so she asked her to come over and help." ”

"Oh...... New to the new arrival? When did you come to the house? Although Su Xue was nodding, the vigilance in her eyes had not completely dissipated, and she was still looking at the cuckoo with a faint gaze.

This time, Qianrou didn't respond, and Du Juan replied by herself: "Miss Huisan, the little one was bought into the house by the housekeeper the day before yesterday." ”

The day before yesterday, wasn't it the day she just came back from Beijing?

Is it a cat, or is it a coincidence?

Look at the cuckoo again, dressed in a plain dark blue jacket, with low eyebrows and eyes, very respectful and humble.

It looks like she is also a girl from a poor family, and her family is desperate, so she sells the little girl to the house to be a servant.

Maybe she's too suspicious.

Thinking of this, Su Xue softened her gaze and said to Qianrou: "Since you came to my room to serve, you can't be too cold, didn't the old lady send a few brocade cloths over a few days ago?" Choose two horses that are not too outstanding, and make two clothes for the cuckoo. ”

When Du Juan heard this, he quickly knelt down and said with a crying voice: "Thank you Miss Three, thank you Miss Three!" ”

Qianrou also felt that Su Xue had done something too much, and the old lady brought it over, after all, it was a good brocade fabric, how could she casually use it to make clothes for the maid?

But seeing the cuckoo so grateful, Qianrou felt that it was worth it.

The brocade cloth will be sent to the house every month, and the young lady will never be short of use here. But if the people under their noses are not sincere, even if they have boxes and cars of Ayaluo Zhucui, they may not have that blessing to enjoy.

Qianrou suddenly felt that her young lady had far exceeded her previous expectations. It's not just the heart that is like a mirror. And take a long-term view.

She was secretly happy in her heart.

The cuckoo received the reward. And he withdrew.

The room was quiet, Su Xue picked up the book in her hand again, and said quietly: "In the future, you don't need to let the cuckoo come into the back room to serve, just outside." ”

Qianrou paused for a moment, and replied with a light smile: "Yes." ”

Su Xue took a sip of tea, she had been here for so long, and she had gone through a lot of things, and those lessons told her. Be cautious, yes.

After a while, there were voices outside.

Su Xue took a deep breath, sat up straight and called Qianrou outside the curtain in.

"What's wrong?"

In fact, she could already guess the situation outside, and she didn't dare to go out, so she asked Qianrou.

Qianrou looked outside a little embarrassed and said, "There is a son outside, saying that he is coming to pick up something." ”

Su Xue's eyes darkened: "He's alone?" ”

What about the old lady and the second master? Didn't you say that you would entertain her? Why did you let him come?

Originally, Su Xue still had hope in her heart, thinking that the old lady and the second master would also come over, but she listened to it in the house for a while. I didn't hear the voices of the old lady and the second master.

And Qianrou really said: "There is more than one person, it seems that there are also accompanying servants." ”

said that half the day was his people.

"How can my father ask a strange man to come to the backyard of the house?" Su Xue was a little annoyed. Then he asked, "What's going on now?" ”

Qianrou lifted the curtain and went out to take a look, and came back and said, "Miaomeng blocked him at the door, and he is in a stalemate right now." Miss, who is that? Or, the little one should go and let the cuckoo call the second master over? ”

Su Xue shook her head helplessly, this person came from the second master's side, I am afraid that he is relying on his high power, and his father and grandmother have nothing to do with him, and now they have all broken here, even if the second master is afraid, it is useless.

Su Xue exhaled, had to compromise, and said to Qianju: "You go and ask him what exactly he wants to take." ”

Qianrou responded, lifted the curtain and went out to pass the word, Shaoqing, hurriedly came back, her eyes were a little panicked, and said, "Miss, he ...... He said that he wanted you to go out, and he wanted to talk to your face. ”

"Ridiculous! I'm a boudoir woman, how can I go out to see him casually? ”

Su Xue yelled eating, in fact, she didn't have a bottom herself, fortunately, there were many ancient rules, and he didn't dare to come nonsense, but now he can help her block it for a while.

Qianrou lifted the curtain again and went out to maneuver around, and finally came back with a bitter face: "Miss, it's okay if he can't go out, but you want to tell him in person." As...... Just through the door? ”

Su Xue sighed, if the confrontation continued like this, the trouble would only make the other ladies and ladies in the house laugh, and after thinking about it, she had to nod her head in response.

Lifted the curtain and walked out, through the closed ebony carved door, saw Miaomeng's petite figure tightly blocked the crack of the door, looking at the hard posture, Su Xue couldn't help but want to laugh in her heart.

He cleared his throat and said aloud to the door: "May I ask this son, why do you want to make a noise here?" ”

There was a sudden silence outside the door, and after a while, a clear voice sounded, with a slightly meaningful smile: "Miss Jiang, if it's really you, Pei has already heard your voice." ”

Su Xue was horrified in her heart, this person really came badly.

In fact, she had heard his voice a long time ago, but she was still puzzled: "I have never known Childe, and I don't understand the meaning of Childe's words." ”

Pei Ye, who didn't wait outside the house, opened his mouth, and Su Xue said again: "Didn't Childe say that he wanted to take something?" Dare to ask what it is, if I really have it here, I will gladly serve it to my son. I just ask Gongzi to leave quickly after getting that thing, after all, this is the backyard of Jiangfu, not a place where Gongzi should come. ”

After speaking, he listened intently to the movement outside the door, but heard a laugh outside.

"It turns out that Miss Jiang still knows how to defend men and women?"

Pei Ye almost didn't say anything, wasn't he still very happy when he picked up people's clothes at that time?

Su Xue's hands were secretly clenched, she had saved his life anyway, so she wouldn't take revenge like this, right?

"What exactly does Childe want to come and get something?" Su Xue's voice hardened.

Pei Ye probably heard Su Xue's annoyance, so he stopped sneering, eased his tone, and said gently: "Pei Mou is actually not here to pick up things, but to deliver things. Miss Jiang's life-saving grace, Pei is unforgettable, as long as Miss Jiang is willing to accept this jade pendant, Pei will leave. ”

Su Xue smiled dryly: "Saving grace? What kind of life-saving grace, how can Childe talk nonsense? ”

Pei Ye smiled clearly: "Miss Jiang can not admit it." But Pei's kindness could not be repaid. I also asked Miss Jiang to read a certain piece of sincerity in Pei. Take this jade pendant. ”

As he spoke, he ordered the close attendant on the side to present a piece of jade.

Miao Meng looked at the jade, both eyes lit up, but she didn't dare to accept it, turned her head and shouted inside: "Miss? ”

Su Xue gritted her teeth secretly, she almost let the eldest lady seize the opportunity to count the scrolls of Chen Gongzi before, how dare she accept things again?

He said: "I have never met my son, how can I accept my son's gift?" ”

Pei Ye smiled outside: "Miss Jiang said it so well. I have never met, and I dare not accept the gift. Then why, did you accept Pei's paintings again? ”

What to draw...... Paintings!

Su Xue was taken aback, could it be that the painting that Chen Gongzi gave her was actually his?

Su Xue couldn't help blushing, recalling that on that painting, she was dressed in men's clothes, but between her eyebrows and eyes deliberately painted a woman's coquettishness.

It turned out that he painted it? Then he knew early on that she was a daughter?

No wonder, when he picked up his clothes before, his whole body was straight.

At the mention of that painting, Su Xue immediately panicked. I don't know what to do.

Pei Ye saw that it was quiet inside, so he came closer. said: "Miss Jiang, please rest assured, Pei didn't let the people from your mansion come with him, right now, only Miss Jiang, the arrogant maid, is blocking the door." ”

When Miao Meng heard this, her eyes widened, and she blocked the door even tighter.

Su Xue rolled his eyes, he knew her concerns, and he deliberately said this, which showed that he came prepared.

Could it be that he really wanted to repay the favor, not to embarrass her?

After thinking for a while, he asked tentatively: "That son's words count, I will accept the jade, and the son will leave?" ”

"That's nature. If Miss Jiang is a man, she wouldn't mind inviting her out to have a drink with Pei, but it's a pity......" He deliberately lengthened his voice.

Su Xue secretly scolded in her heart, where is he repaying his kindness, obviously pretending to be a tomboy before satirizing her.

There are many people in this house, and if he continues to sneer like this, sooner or later someone will hear something, so it is better to send him away as soon as possible.

Then he said to Miaomeng: "Take the jade pendant." ”

Miao Meng answered, stopped blocking the door, and stepped forward to pick up Yu Pei.

The attendant holding the jade was a little reluctant, and glanced back at his master.

Pei Ye's eyes sank, as if to warn, and the attendant had no choice but to be discouraged, and reluctantly handed over the jade in his hand to Miaomeng.

"Childe's jade pendant has been accepted, Miaomeng, send off." Su Xue said unceremoniously, turned around and walked to the back room.

I heard another laugh from outside the house: "Miss Jiang is so magnificent, then Pei said goodbye and said goodbye." ”

Su Xue continued to walk inside, only thinking in her heart, there is still a fate to see you again, Amitabha, it is better to never see each other.

Back in the back room, she sat down and breathed a sigh of relief when she was sure it was quiet outside.

After a while, Miao Meng opened the door and came in with the jade pendant, and did not forget to shout happily: "Miss, what a big jade pendant!" ”

Su Xue sat up straight and took a look, the jade pendant was indeed big, the whole was full of a wonderful dream palm, and the outer edge was also inlaid with a layer of black, like some kind of black crystal stone or something.

When Qianrou saw this jade pendant, she was also surprised, and curiously leaned over to take a look.

Su Xue glanced at it a few times, only curious in her heart, this jade pendant is so big, it is not too heavy to wear on the body?

The jade pendant was being watched here, and the cuckoo outside suddenly shouted inside: "The old lady is here." ”

Su Xue's face was stunned, and she ordered: "Don't look at it, put it away quickly!" ”

As he spoke, he got up and went out to greet him.

The old lady walked in a hurry with her cane, lifted the curtain, walked to Su Xue in a few steps, with guilt in her eyes, and asked while looking at Su Xue: "How is it, Sister Xue, has he made things difficult for you?" ”

Su Xue quickly thought about the old lady's intention, pursed her lips and said, "Grandmother, don't worry, aren't everyone gone?" ”

The old lady breathed a sigh of relief, took Su Xue's hand and sat down, and said indignantly: "This young master from Yiguo Mansion is crazy!" What did he say, he just came to pick up things, and asked the second master to discipline you. In the end, he stopped us and didn't allow us to come together. I think it's strange, this is in Jiangfu, just let him go on a rampage with a hairless kid? What kind of gentlemen have been raised in the Yiguo Mansion? ”

The old lady said with an angry face, but these words could only wait for Pei Ye to leave and speak behind her back. If Fang could get such a style, he wouldn't have watched Pei Ye break in alone. (To be continued......)
