The woman in front of me yawned, beckoned to me, and lazily exclaimed, "Meet the stars." ”

I walked over and bowed slightly, looking at her tired face. "It's time to get you a husband."

I hurriedly lowered my head and said, "Yuxing only wants to wait by Madame's side." ”

Chang Feng sighed and said, "Now that you have reached the age of marriage, where can you stay next to me anymore?" In the end, she was ridiculed by others, and she was born so good-looking, but she was a girl who couldn't get married. ”

"I can't marry anything, the slave just wants to stay by my wife's side, I'm not afraid that others don't want me, I'm afraid that my wife doesn't want me."

"How could I not want you? Yuxing, you have been following me for a while, and I have seen the scholars of the Lin Mansion are not bad......"

"Madam, the slave does not want to leave Madame!"

Chang Feng looked at me fixedly for a while, and said, "That's it, you haven't figured it out yet, just wait for you to figure it out after a while." ”

After saying that, Chang Feng got up and went for a walk, leaving me alone in the house to be silent.

It seems that being a maid has the trouble of being a maid, but it is better than being tortured by the Qinglian Society. You can still eat in Changfu, but you will starve to death in Qinglianhui.

I have seen the scholar of the Lin Mansion, who looks white and clean, has a pair of peach blossom eyes, and is a good hand at seducing women. I can take the life of such a person with one palm, let alone let him protect me.

"Yuxing, come here, I'll take you to the garden."

Hearing the call of the lady, I hurried out.

It's summer, and the garden is so lush and green that it obscures the eyes. Chang Feng said: "You, a year ago today, saved me. ”

I squinted, and for a moment I heard the sound of horses' hooves.

"I was walking down the street, and suddenly someone threw a dagger at me, and you were beside you, and without saying a word, caught the dagger with your knife and took it firmly in your hand. No one else may have seen it, but I knew in my heart that the dagger was aimed at my heart. ”

"It's just a gesture, slaves and maids don't have any strengths, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter."

"It's just that sometimes I also think, if I die, I'm afraid the master can live a simpler life."

"How can Madame say that? The lord cares about his wife so much, how can he want his wife to die? ”

"Alas, it's not that my belly is not angry and I can't give birth to a child, I think, even if it's a daughter, it's ......"

"Children are not something that affects the relationship between the lady and the master...... The lord is not that kind of person. ”

"That Liu Chunfang...... Not long after I was married, there was no longer me in my eyes, if I couldn't be reborn, I would really be bullied by her. ”

"Madame, don't talk nonsense, don't you still have me. If she dares to bully you, I won't care. ”

"I'm afraid you'll be punished by the lord then. It's okay, I'm not a weak person, the only one who can make me bow my head in this life is the master. ”

Neither of them spoke for a while, both reminiscing about the past. I don't want to go back to the past, but Chang Feng is different, it has been twelve or thirteen years since he married Chang Sheng, but his body is weak, and the children he finally conceived are gone, and his body is even worse now. But I know that Chang Sheng still takes care of his wife very much, and there is no change in the house except for marrying an extra concubine, Liu Chunfang.

As for Liu Chunfang, this woman is not a good bird. I heard Chang Feng say that she relied on the lord at the beginning, and Mrs. didn't say much about the specific Lai Fa, maybe she didn't know it herself, maybe she didn't want to mention that woman. In short, Liu Chunfang is neither the daughter of a famous nobleman, nor a small jasper, I think she is more like those village women, or the kind of person who is unwilling to work every day to chew the root of her tongue, relying on her own posture, she keeps hooking up with the master, once the master comes back from the palace, he will pester him, fortunately, after the master comes back, he is usually on Chang Feng's side, which makes Liu Chunfang even more reluctant to see Chang Feng on weekdays.

After a while, a maid came over and said to Chang Feng, "Madam, the master will come back at about Shen Shi today." ”

Chang Feng nodded, a smile appeared on his face, and I said, "I haven't seen Madame smile for a long time, it seems that only the old man can make Madame happy when he comes back." ”

"Yes, you said that I have no heirs, the only one who stays by my side is you, and sometimes, I will treat you as my daughter."

"Thank you, Madame, for taking care of you."

"You took care of me, and I didn't take much care of you. Yuxing, there is one thing I have always wanted to ask. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Where did you learn all your skills?"

"I ......"

"I don't want to say it, I won't say it, I'm just curious."

I hesitated for a moment and said, "I used to study under an old general. I was born an orphan, and the old general, who had no children and no daughters in his life, adopted me. He taught me how to use weapons, but the best I used was a knife. When Madame met me, the old general had just died, and I had nowhere else to go. ”

"It seems that I have wronged you by letting you be a maid, and your talent should be a guard." Chang Feng laughed.

"Madam, how can I be taken in by Madame, I am already grateful to meet the stars." I thought to myself, don't push me back to the Qinglian Society again.

"You're always so polite to me."

Just after Shen Shi, the master returned. As a capable general by the emperor's side, Chang Sheng not only won the trust of the emperor, but also won the hearts of the people. He has a strong sense of competitiveness and ambition in his bones, but he is loyal to the emperor and cares for the people, so he is simply a rare good official. When Chang Sheng returned home, the first thing he did was to come to the courtyard to find his wife, and asked someone to hurry up and prepare a meal to eat with his wife. Liu Chunfang wandered around the courtyard for a while, and when she saw that the old man had no intention of going out, she walked away in a huff.

I and the other maids were busy dressing up the lady and serving food to the table, Chang Feng was very happy, and the face that usually had to be treated with fat powder could now see a faint flush without fat powder, and the maids were also very happy, but I wasn't, I just felt sad.

"How are you doing lately?" Chang Feng asked.

"Well, it's all good, the emperor values me very much."

"That's good."

The two of them didn't say anything more, but I could clearly feel Chang Sheng's uneasiness. After a while, he said, "Go out first." ”

I went out of the house with a few maids and stood in the courtyard, and the maids beside me were discussing in whispers, saying that it was estimated that the lord would sleep at Madame's place tonight. However, this was originally a room shared by the lady and the master, and there was no such thing as sleeping. After a while, the door opened, Chang Sheng walked out, and a few maids who didn't serve their ladies also left, leaving only me and another maid, Ah Yan.

Chang Feng walked out and said with some despair: "Master, he won't sleep in this house tonight." ”

I wanted to say something comforting, but I couldn't say anything, I just opened my mouth, silently helped my wife back to the house, sat down, Ah Yan and I cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, took them to wash, during which the two looked at each other and didn't say anything, but I believe that what she saw in my eyes should be the same as what I saw in her eyes—sadness.

Although the experience in the Qinglian Society and my original identity have determined that it is impossible for me to marry any dignitaries in the future, in the days of Changfu, I will still be afraid that I will encounter such a fate, after all, sometimes I can get rid of some bad things without being careful.

After Chang Sheng came to visit Chang Feng the next day, he was about to return to the palace again. Although Chang Feng was disappointed, she would also choose to go out to buy something to relieve her sadness, but Liu Chunfang stood straight not far from the gate as if she knew that she would go out.

"Sister, are you going out?" She held her head high and said, "I heard that the master didn't go to sleep with my sister yesterday, does my sister know why?" ”

"My lord has slept with me for more than ten years, and he has only slept with you for a few nights, what is there to show off?" Chang Feng said.

"Oh, but some people just can't conceive children."

"Some people, even if they are pregnant with children, will always be concubines." I said.

"What are you talking about, little girl?" Liu Chunfang looked at me angrily, I stared into her eyes, and said: "Every time the master comes back, the first person he sees is always the lady, and the last person to leave to see is also the lady, in the eyes of the master, you are just an object to give birth to a child, and the master will not see you for other reasons." ”

"You! Daring! Liu Chunfang wanted to hit me, but Chang Feng on the side shouted: "You dare! ”

Liu Chunfang looked at Chang Feng with wide eyes, Chang Feng said: "This is my maid, and I will do it to beat her, you shouldn't even forget the rules of the house, right?" ”

Liu Chunfang snorted coldly and said, "Of course I haven't forgotten, I don't need you to remind me." ”

Liu Chunfang left after speaking, I really couldn't restrain my hand from hitting this woman. But this is still in the house, and I can't eat and drink in the house and break the rules of the house.

The street market in the capital is very lively, especially in summer, there are many small stalls and vendors, and the things sold are all strange, even the lady likes those gadgets, and will buy a few things back every time, but put them in the house, and they will not touch them again in a few days.

"Yuxing, what do you think of this hairpin?"

I looked at the emerald green hairpin that Madame was holding, and it was very beautiful. "This hairpin is very suitable for Madame, Madame must look good when she wears it."

Madame smiled and said, "I was going to give this to you." ”

I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "No, no, no, I appreciate Madame's kindness, but I really can't wear this hairpin." ”

"What I gave you, how can there be a reason to refuse? Come on, I'll put it on for you. ”

Looking at Madame's smiling face, I really can't refuse, but fortunately, this hairpin is not expensive, and I can feel at ease.

Madame put a hairpin on me, paid the peddler, and said, "I treat you as a daughter, and you should not be polite to me." ”

I nodded, not to say anything more.

I know that every time my wife comes out, she mainly goes to the hospital to see her body, and it is the same today. Every time, my wife was very concerned about my body, saying that the medical hall was heavy and would not let me in, I thought to myself how many people's blood I had stained, and the medical hall and me, I don't know whose yin qi is heavy. But she insisted that I certainly couldn't tell the truth.
