Chapter 16: The Good Life (4)

The little maid was startled by this, the plate took off her hand, and fell to the ground with a "bang", and she was so frightened that she stood in place and trembled.

"Turn around", the little girl lowered her head and slowly turned her body, facing the direction from which the voice came.

"Raise your head", the little maid didn't move, she didn't dare.

"It's okay, raise your head" The voice softened a lot, and the little girl slowly raised her head with courage until her whole face was facing Zheng Yu before stopping, her eyes staring at the ground, and her lips were about to be bitten.

The moment he saw this face clearly, Zheng Yu's mind "buzzed", as if there was a ** explosion inside, and it was blank. The heart also hurt fiercely, as if he had been hit with a heavy hammer.

The little girl thought about it, and after recalling it for a long time, she didn't remember what she had done wrong to provoke this young master. It doesn't hurt to simply kneel down and admit your mistakes in time. I was very scared, and I hoped that when I beat her for a while, I wouldn't be too heavy. Thinking of this, he knelt down with a "poof", kowtowed vigorously, and kept repeating "Slave damned, young master spare his life", and his forehead hit the wooden floor with a "knock" sound.

Zheng Yu came to his senses, jumped over with a brisk step, pulled the little girl up, gently stroked the little girl's somewhat red and swollen forehead with his hand, and wiped away the tears still hanging on her face with his sleeve. The voice was a little choked: "Silly child, does it hurt?" The little maid didn't react a little, and shook her head dumbly.

"What's your name?"

The little maid timidly replied, "I don't have a name, everyone calls me Xiao Duo'er." ”

"Do you have any relatives at home?"

The little maid nodded, then shook her head, "I was sold to Master Zheng's house by my adoptive parents." I also have a younger brother at home......"

It turned out that the little maid fled here with her family when she was about two years old, and later her relatives starved to death. She was picked up by her current adoptive parents and taken for adoption. At first, it was fine, although I had to work, and I was often scolded and beaten, but at least I was able to eat enough. It wasn't until she was five or six years old that her adoptive parents gave birth to a son, and she began to do housework, cooking, washing clothes, and taking care of her younger brother. There is also a meal without a meal, I have never eaten enough, and I am beaten and scolded at every turn. It's just a rough maid. stayed up to the age of eleven until he was eleven years old, and was sold by his adoptive parents to the Zheng family as a maid. It's been a year since I came to Zheng's Mansion, and although I am often bullied, I am at least well-fed and warmly dressed. The little girl thinks that Zhengfu is heaven, so she is diligent and cautious. I'm afraid of making a mistake and being sold.

Zheng Yu felt a pain in his heart after hearing this. grabbed the little girl's hands, looked at the tiny cracks on the little hands, stroked the rough skin that should not be at this age, and tears rolled in her eyes. The little girl wanted to withdraw her hand, but she didn't have so much strength.

The little maid who had been struggling for a while suddenly realized something, and cried wow, crying while saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't dare anymore" and then knelt down in the direction of Liuhe, and then cried: "Steward Liu, I don't dare anymore, I didn't pour the osmanthus cake you asked me to pour last time, and secretly gave it to my brother." I didn't mean to, my father and mother told me that my brother wanted to eat osmanthus cake, and I didn't dare to take a new one. The osmanthus cake you asked me to pour last time was not willing to pour it, so I secretly gave it to my brother. If I don't take it, when I go home from vacation, my father and mother will beat me to death. You bypass me this time, I don't dare anymore, you hit me! Please, don't drive me away. ”

Zheng Yu's tears couldn't hold back anymore and burst out of his eyes. Pulled the little maid up and whispered, "Stand here and don't move, wait" After speaking, he took a step forward, walked in front of Liu Yun and shook it to the end, and the people present were even more dumbfounded. Just listen to Zheng Yudao.

"The little nephew begs the uncle to give this maid to the little nephew" Zheng Yu knew that such a little maid was not worth a few dollars, so don't mention it as soon as possible, just ask for it.

Liu Yun didn't know why, why was it so good just now that he was like this suddenly? Wondering.

"Virtuous nephew, you get up and talk first, it's no problem for you, if it's not enough, you can pick a few more, but why do you behave like this?"

"Uncle, forgive the little nephew for his gaffe, this maid looks quite like a little nephew's childhood playmate, often with his nephew with his father, and then died of a violent illness, at this time I saw this little maid, so that the nephew returned to his father in a trance, thinking of his deceased father, so he was a little out of shape." There is no way, I can only make up stories, anyway, there is no proof that the cheap dad is dead, and I didn't know Mr. Gou well when I was a child, and Zheng Xing and Zheng Tai were not present at this time.

"The filial piety of the virtuous nephew is commendable! Steward Liu, go and get this girl's deed. Liu Yun sighed with emotion. Su Xiaoman felt that Zheng Yu was really a good boy who valued love and righteousness. Liu Manwen and Liu Hongguo scolded Zheng Yu in their hearts for being a "disciple", not even letting go of a little girl, and sooner or later exposing your true colors. Mr. Gou thought to himself, "Young Master, what kind of moth are you going to do here??" Is it really good to ask for a maid in someone's house in front of Liu Manwen?"

At this time, Zheng Yu only had the little maid named Xiao Duo in front of him. If it weren't for asking about the little maid's life experience, Zheng Yu really thought that his daughter in his previous life had also crossed over. The two of them are no longer as simple as they look alike, and their facial features are completely carved out of a mold. There was no difference except that this little maid was a little thinner and her complexion was a little yellow. There is no difference in the sound of the voice just now. Isn't this God's will, God arranged for herself to come to Beijing, to arrange for herself to meet this little girl, no, to arrange for herself to meet her daughter, although she has no memory of her previous life now, but she is my daughter. Zheng Yu decided at this moment that this was the reincarnation of his daughter to find him.

Liu He hurried back with a piece of paper, Liu Yun gestured to hand it to Zheng Yu, and Zheng Yu took it and looked at it. I want to burn, it's not dark at this time, and the candles are not lit, so I can't take the fire sickle and beat the fire for a long time, right? Anyway, I was going to take it away and burn it, and it was not easy to take it if it was torn, and it was not worth folding neatly, so I rubbed it and put it into my arms. He bowed down and said, "Thank you, uncle." The little nephew retired first, and in the past few days he began to clean up the farm so that he could settle down early. ”

Liu Yun originally wanted to ask why he destroyed the deed, but after thinking about it, everyone gave it to him, let him go. He dismissed the idea of asking.

"The virtuous nephew is at his own convenience, if there is anything that needs his uncle's help, just ask Steward Liu for it."

Zheng Yu should be, then turned around and picked up the plate on the ground and handed it to Liu He, and called the little maid to leave. Mr. Gou also got up and bowed to Liu Yun and the others, and hurriedly followed. Leave a room full of bewildered people.

When he came to the gate of the hospital, Zheng Yu arranged for Mr. Gou to buy some good bedding and a new set of toiletries. After Mr. Gou left, Zheng Yu asked the little maid again

"Aren't there two copies of the deed? What about the other one? ”

The little maid replied timidly, "The other one is with my father." She still doesn't know what she's going to face, whether it's a good thing or a bad thing. is like a rootless duckweed, unable to control its own destiny and can only go with the flow.

"Where do you live now, do you have anything important?"

The little maid thought about it and nodded, "I live in the maidservant's room in the front yard, there are things." Zheng Yu's so-called important things are the kind of objects that cannot be separated from the body or have commemorative significance. And in the heart of the little maid, as long as it is her own, it is important, bedding, clothes, etc..... She thought that Zheng Yu was asking these questions.

Zheng Yu nodded and said, "Let's go, go to the place where you live to get things, and move to me in the future." As he spoke, let the little maid lead the way.

Outside a small courtyard, as soon as I entered the door, I heard an angry voice "Xiao Duo!" You, you have been sending fruit for so long, where are you going to be lazy!! It's ticklish, isn't it? ’
