Volume 1 Chapter 37 The Maiden
Chu Yu sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, with his hands on his cheeks, quietly looking at the moon in the sky.
I don't know if Chang'e in this heaven will be lonely? Chu Yu looked at the moon and thought boredly.
Suddenly, Chu Yu's arm was bitten by a mosquito.
Chu Yu scratched the bite and said angrily, "This mosquito is really annoying!" ”
I'm afraid it's going to itch for a while.
Chu Yu felt that he had to develop some insect repellent potions, otherwise, this summer would be really unbearable.
Suddenly, there was a strange noise in the grass and bushes under the fence.
"Who?" , Chu Yu stood up vigilantly and looked at the corner.
She hadn't heard the movement in the corner.
Chu Yu quietly walked to the flowers, picked up a wooden stick, and tiptoed to the corner.
Suddenly, the white cat kept coming out.
"Meow, meow..."
The white cat meowed, and Chu Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
She thought it was someone who was eavesdropping on the corner!
"Meow. Meow. Hurry up, kitten! Chu Yu called softly, trying to lure the cat in.
The cat seemed to sense that Chu Yu had no malicious intent, and actually rushed to Chu Yu's feet.
Chu Yu squatted down and stroked its white jade-like fluff, and the more he touched it, the more he felt that he couldn't put it down.
The white cat also seemed to enjoy Chu Yu's petting, only to see it close its eyes comfortably.
However, the cat seemed to be idle, and ran away from Chu Yu's feet without letting Chu Yu touch it a few more times.
Before leaving, the white cat glanced back at Chu Yu, and there seemed to be a kind of reluctance in his eyes.
Reluctant? Chu Yu couldn't help laughing, she was thinking too much, where would a cat have people's emotions?
Chu Yu stood up and watched the white cat jump onto the grass and bushes, and then jumped from the grass and bushes to the wall, and then jumped down from the side of the wall to the other side.
Chu Yu looked at the already bright moon in the sky, then stretched his waist and got up to go back.
Chu Yu, who went back to the room, lay down on the bed and fell asleep not long after.
Outside the wall, a black shadow with a white cat in its arms disappeared into the moonlight in an instant.
East Palace.
In a palace.
The candlelight flickered, and the shadows flickered.
The prince, dressed in a white shirt, was looking at some books.
But he couldn't read a few words.
Wen Hao felt irritable for a while, so he threw the book in his hand away, and then found a book to write a story.
However, he still couldn't see anything. He knew all the words in his eyes, but he didn't think about them.
At this time, He Xing came in with a white cat in his hand.
If Chu Yu saw it, she would be surprised to find that this white cat was the one she had just gotten her hair on.
He Xing's face is round, his eyebrows are all righteous, and his figure also has the characteristics of a burly northerner.
A burly man is holding an innocent-looking kitten in his hands, and this scene feels a little weird no matter how you look at it.
As soon as he came in, He Xing put the cat on the ground.
As soon as the white cat hit the ground, it rushed onto the prince's desk.
"See Your Highness." , He Xing arched his hand.
"Excuse me, what's wrong with her?" , Wen Hao saw He Xing come back and hurriedly put down the classics in his hand.
He Xing wiped a handful of sweat and said, "Miss Chu Yu didn't seem to be able to sleep, and then came out of the yard to admire the moon, and after admiring it for a while, she found that there was something strange on the wall, and later found out that it was this kitten, and her subordinates escaped because of this, Miss Chu Yu seemed to like this kitten very much." ”
Can't sleep? Could it be that she couldn't sleep because she knew about his marriage?
Wen Hao wasn't sure.
"Why did this kitten follow?" , Wen Hao picked up the white cat on the desk who was licking his face, and stroked the white cat.
He Xing lowered his head and said, "The subordinates don't know, the subordinates didn't notice it for a while, but I didn't expect this kitten to follow the subordinates." ”
"You little kitten, you're really naughty, don't you like that Yu'er too?" , Wen Hao poked the cat's skull.
The cat meowed when she felt Wen Hao's touch.
"Your Highness, do you want to continue to stare at Miss Chu Yu?" , He Xing arched his hand.
Wen Hao put down the white cat in his hand and said, "Don't stare at it, since she likes this white cat, He Xing, you send this white cat to her." ”
"Your Highness, this? Do you need to tell Miss Chu Yu that she sent it? He Xing hesitated a little.
Wen Hao pondered for a while, and said, "No need, you can put this cat in her yard later." ”
"What if the cat comes back?"
"It's okay, come back is come back." , Wen Hao glanced at the white cat who was still licking the fur on his body, and said lightly.
"Yes. The subordinates will go. He Xing carefully picked up the white cat, and the white cat did not resist.
After a while, a man and a cat disappeared into the palace of the East Palace.
This white cat was found by Wen Hao by chance some time ago, and Wen Hao saw that it was pitiful and took it back.
It stays in the prince's study on weekdays, and other than that, it doesn't go anywhere, but tonight it suddenly went out with He Xing, which is really weird.
However, this white cat is docile, and sending it to Chu Yu can be regarded as a gift to her, and it is not impossible.
Thinking about it, Wen Hao smiled and sat down immediately.
However, as soon as he thought that he was a person with a marriage contract, and the object was Zuo Qingqing instead of Chu Yu, Wen Hao's face suddenly sank.
He Xing quickly ran towards the Chu Mansion with the white cat in his arms, and couldn't help complaining in his heart, this Highness is really too capable of tossing.
I like people and don't say it, now it's okay, I've become a person with a marriage contract.....
This white cat, it is estimated that it will be sent for nothing, after all, Miss Chu Yu doesn't know that it was sent by His Royal Highness!
Spit and complain, He Xing was still very conscientious, and put the white cat in the courtyard of Chu Mansion before leaving.
Chu Mansion.
In the early morning of the next day, before the sky was white, Chu Yu heard the sound of a rooster crowing in a blur, but Chu Yu opened his eyes slightly and closed them again.
She slept late last night, and now she is too tired and sleepy, and it is impossible to get up early.
When the first day of the day was three poles, Chu Yu got up.
When Chu Yu woke up, she found that no one brought her washing water.
Chu Yu was puzzled, so he walked out of the door.
As soon as he got out of the room, he saw Shuangqi and several unknown maids teasing a white cat together.
White cats?
Chu Yu rubbed her eyes, isn't this white cat the one she saw last night?
How did it end up here?
Could it be that you really have a crush on her?
Chu Yu saw that a few people didn't notice him at all, so he coughed lightly.
"Miss, good morning, miss."
This light cough really worked, and when Shuangqi heard Chu Yu's voice, he quickly turned around and saluted Chu Yu.
"Good morning, Miss!"
When the other maids heard the sound, they also hurriedly got up, bowed in the direction of Chu Yu, and didn't dare to raise their heads.
Chu Yu said softly, "Get up, Shuangqi, is the water for my washing ready?" ”
Shuangqi said angrily, "Miss, I'll go now." ”
With that, Frost Seven turned around and walked out.
When the white cat saw that everyone got up, she ran straight to Chu Yu's feet, and even rubbed her shoes with her forehead, and suddenly, Chu Yu's heart was budding.
"Little kitten, but you have taken a fancy to Miss Ben's big house? Why don't you live here in the future, and we call you Xiaobai, okay? Chu Yu squatted down and looked into the eyes of the white cat.
The white cat seemed to understand Chu Yu's words, and actually licked Chu Yu's feet with his tongue.
Chu Yu was in a good mood.
"You're the new maid?" , Chu Yu got up and looked at the three maids with their heads down.
"Yes, miss." , the three maids said in unison.
"Please give me a name." , a bold maid spoke.
Chu Yu's eyes narrowed, it was really a bit difficult for her to name such a thing.
At this time, Frost Seven came in with a tray of washing water.
Chu Yu said as if he had seen a savior, "I'll tell you when I wash up." ”
"Yes, miss." , the three maids bowed their heads.
Chu Yu turned around and went back to the house, and Xiaobai immediately followed, not leaving Chu Yu's side an inch.
Chu Yu was happy, "Frost Seven, when did this Xiaobai come?" ”
Xiaobai? Shuangqi was stunned for a moment, but then it became clear that Xiaobai was a white cat.
"Miss, my subordinates don't know, but when I came to the yard in the morning, I saw this kitten. I've been in this yard for a long time. ", Frost Seven recalled.
Chu Yu washed his face.
Could it be that this little white has been here all the time last night?
After thinking about it for a while, Chu Yu ignored it.
When Chu Yu was sitting at the dresser, the white cat also jumped up, squatting aside and looking at her quietly.
Chu Yu couldn't help but be amused by its expression.
"By the way, Frost Seven, where did these three maids come from?" , Remembering the matter of naming those maids, Chu Yu asked out loud.
Shuangqi combed Chu Yu's hair seriously, and responded, "Miss, these are all carefully selected maids by Shuangqi, please rest assured, they used to be sweeping maids in the house, because Miss needs to increase maids, so the housekeeper hired a few more maids outside, and his subordinates were afraid that they didn't know the details of the maids outside, so they looked for these people." ”
"Well, I'll rest assured that you can do things." , Chu Yu nodded.
But I was thinking about what names I should give these maids.
It's straightforward, but it's not good, she doesn't like it. It sounds nice, but it's a mental job.
After thinking about it, Chu Yu decided to read the scriptures for a while.
There are many beautiful sentences in the scriptures, but they can give her a lot of inspiration.
This maid went to another place to ask the new master to give a name, so that if these maids change masters frequently, they will have several names.
After Chu Yu finished dressing up, it was time for dinner.
Those maids were very diligent, and when Chu Yu was eating breakfast, he saw the three of them cleaning the courtyard seriously.
Thanks to their efforts, the courtyard seemed to be much cleaner.
Chu Yu was quite satisfied, and decided to give them a good name.
After finishing the meal, Chu Yu picked up a few scriptures and read them.
