Eighty, early on
Du Shi put the brush on the inkstone and was supported by Cuibei and slowly got up and began his daily routine.
Five months later, his body was already a little heavy, and Du Shi became more and more careful. With his hand on his lower abdomen, he stroked it for a while, and Du Shi didn't know why he had left this child behind. At first, she didn't want it, but then even his own father gave up, why did she become paranoid again?
"Miss, Miss."
Du Shi was shouted twice.
"Hmm." Du Shi turned his head slightly, "What's the matter?" ”
Just noticing Du Shi's expression, Cuibei knew that she hadn't listened to what Du Shi had said before, so she said it again and asked, "Miss, do you think you want to recruit a new shopkeeper?" ”
These days, almost all the shops outside Du's house are in charge of Cuibei, which is really beautiful. Steward Zhu is also serving as the shopkeeper in the shop these days, but he is not a serious shopkeeper and has no keen business sense. Originally, after Li Zhuang left, the business of the Du family's grocery store was depressed, and now it is getting worse and worse, and it is getting more and more bleak. Any business is to be done for a long time, to be bigger, to be stronger, it is a profitable business, a good business.
"Let Steward Zhu work hard for a few more days, and look for a new shopkeeper by the way." Du reached out and rubbed his temples. The grocery store is the foundation of their home. A few years ago, when his grocery store business was at its best, he also thought about expanding and running some other businesses, but somehow. No matter how hard you try, the final income is not proportional to the effort. The old man of the Du family also gave up this thought. Single-mindedly taking care of the grocery store, and only invested some shares in a few stores that he was slightly optimistic about. Earn some dividends every year, which is why the Du family is so beautiful today.
The two thousand taels of silver that were sent to the Shen family a few days ago are afraid that the daily expenses of the house will be reduced.
Now the situation of the Du family is really difficult to support, Cuibei thought twice in his heart, "Miss, see if you want to invite the old lady"
Du Shi raised his hand, "You don't have to tell the old lady for the time being, I can still handle it." ”
Even if I could, I was afraid that I would be powerless. Cuibei looked at Du's bulging belly, and then paid more attention to his feet. "If the slave knows, she will not dare to make her own decisions in the future."
knows how to control the proportions, neither will the master be disgusted, nor will he drive himself to a dead end,
"I don't blame you." Duch shook his head.
But a good walk made Cuibei's words change the taste, and after solving these, Du Shi lost his interest, and turned around to go back to the room for a nap.
At this time, in a corner of the garden.
"Ximei, let go. I'm going over. Xiya watched Du Shi drift away, and she was angry and dragged her back at this time. It was too late for the eldest lady to go out of the garden, and she had waited for many days to seize such an opportunity.
"Are you crazy? I don't know that the most taboo thing in the house now is about my uncle and Tracy. You're still going up to touch the moldy head. Ximei is not so much pulling Xiya as pulling the flute in her hand.
Because the relationship between the two is good, even Xiya sometimes sneaks out, and Ximei helps her cover. Since one day Xiya came back with a bamboo flute. I was depressed for the next few days, and Ximei felt that something was going to happen. She may not have much else to do. But you can't go wrong with the first feeling. Every time Xiya does something, she follows her, so as not to have time. couldn't help, so Xiya suffered a disaster.
Although it is said that the days when Ximei entered the Du family were not much longer than Xiya, she had a sweet mouth and quickly became one with many little sisters, and the housekeeper's mother also left a good impression. So it was easy for her to know that this bamboo flute was the personal belongings of the former eldest maid Tracy, or the eldest lady gave it to her, and now that it was in the hands of Xiya, plus Xiya became restless a few days ago, she knew that this matter was not so simple. Do you want the eldest lady to see things and think about people, and remember Tracey? But yes, it's like this, but why bother to pull this stupid girl Xiya. She felt that this bamboo flute was definitely not so simple, although she couldn't see anything wrong now, but if she couldn't see the problem, it was really okay?
"Let me go, Ximei." Xiya stomped her feet, "Sister Tracey is a weak woman, there is no place to go except the Du family, I don't help her, what should she do?" ”
"Listening to this tone, it seems that you have received a great favor from others, and I remember that you almost quarreled the first time." Why did you suddenly have such a good relationship with Xiya? Ximei refused to let go, "She has served the eldest lady for so many years, and she also knows the eldest lady's temperament best, and the eldest lady didn't even dare to see her before Tracey was kicked out of the Du family, which shows that the eldest lady is completely disgusted with her." It's not that you don't know what the situation of the Du family is now, we can't hide, you are still going up at this time. You've swept the floor too much, and you've swept your brain. ”
"I didn't." Xiya shook her head, "I just think Sister Tracey is pitiful." ”
"Am I not pitiful? I've known you for so long, and you don't think about how much heart I've taken for you. Ximei let go of his hand angrily, "You go, I won't stop you." As he spoke, he pushed Xiya.
What Ximei didn't expect was that her move was to retreat, but instead gave Xiya, a strong girl, a chance, and she ran out without looking back, so angry that Ximei gritted her teeth in the back. What kind of stupid girl is this, what kind of stupid girl is this, is there a once-in-a-century encounter? After much hesitation, she followed.
"Miss, please stay."
Du Shi took Cuibei's hand and slowly turned around, and saw a third-class girl kneeling on the ground with her head bowed, holding a bamboo flute in both hands.
It seemed to be a little familiar, Du Shi raised his chin, and Cuibei went over to take the bamboo flute. It's just that Xiya, who was kneeling with her head down, didn't see the murderous sight in Cuibei's eyes, but let Ximei in the distance see it clearly.
"Look, what I said, you're just going to find it yourself." Ximei frowned and bit her lip. It's good now, if you offend Cuibei, Xiya's life will be sad.
"Miss, it's a bamboo flute." Cuibei went to Du Shi with both hands. Du Shi only glanced at it, and remembered that this was something she gave to Tracy, and now it actually fell into the hands of this little girl......
"What are you calling me for?"
"Slave maid, slave maid wants to return this bamboo flute to Zhao." I thought I was brave enough, but I didn't expect her to tremble when she spoke.
"I have a heart, but it's just some old things, throw it away." Du Shi said lightly, and then turned around.
Cuibei can understand that the last three words are addressed to her, but whether this "heart" is talking about Tracey or this little girl, she is a little unsure. glanced at Xiya fiercely, and Cuibei said yes.
Why is it completely different from what she thought, the eldest lady didn't even mention Tracey's name, after all, after serving her for so many years, don't you have any feelings at all? Xiya hurriedly walked a few steps on her knees, "Miss, please stay." Slave and maid are brave, this is "
"Since you know you're bold, why don't you step back quickly?!" Cuibei turned around coldly and drank.
Xiya shrunk her shoulders, but she insisted: "But Sister Tracey"
As everyone knows, what Cuibei hates most is this kind of so-called chivalrous good friend who jumps out from time to time to disgust, which makes her feel hypocritical and jealous.
"It seems that the staff in the house is a bit redundant." Du Shi said lightly.
Cuibei immediately understood, "The slave knows that she is wrong. ”
It seems that there are too many idlers in the house, so idle that they don't do their own work, but care about other people's idle things. Some days don't beat, those mothers who are in charge of the comfortable days are used to it, and even the ability to restrain their subordinates is unfamiliar, it's time to move your muscles and bones.
W-what do you mean, is she going to be fired? Xiya's eyes panicked, how could this be?
Cuibei didn't even ask his name, and walked away with Du Shi. This is just a small role, killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys, this girl really can't stay. (To be continued......)
