Miss Song smiled and said: "There are still things to be done in the house, so she will stay in the house to do things, besides, didn't the shopkeeper Song come to chat with me today?" ”

Song Xinshu saw that although she was young, she spoke very sharply, which really couldn't be underestimated.

She made a gesture of please, went up to the second floor with Miss Song, and after taking a seat, Song Xinshu called someone to serve the refreshments that had already been prepared, especially the special milk tea in the Subei Tea House.

"Now that it's cold, drink a cup of hot milk tea to warm up."

Miss Song picked up the milk tea, blew lightly, took a sip and said: "I have heard that the most famous thing in the Northern Jiangsu Tea House is milk tea, and it is really worthy of its reputation when I taste it today." ”

"Miss Song is overrated."

Song Xinshu looked at Miss Song quietly and wanted to see from her conversation and dress whether she was a good-tempered person and a good person to get along with.

"My little sister was originally in the Mo family, but the Mo family moved and most of the slaves were sold to the Song family, so we, as a family, are naturally worried."

If it was in the past, when the family was poor and white, she would not have been able to talk to Miss Song family face-to-face like this, but now that she has some family background, she is qualified to sit and talk with the young lady of this big family.

"This is understandable, Xiao Mu lives very well in my family, my sister can rest assured, we will never treat people harshly, if my sister doesn't believe it, you can go to Jinling City to inquire."

Song Xinshu said with a smile: "Do you still need to inquire about this, Xiao Mu can stay in your house for so long, there must be a reason for her." ”

Miss Song tasted another piece of snowflake cake and said, "Now that I have tasted the dim sum of this Northern Jiangsu Tea House, I will definitely be inseparable from it in the future, and it seems that I will come more often in the future." ”

"Then come often, there are still a lot of fresh dim sum in the tea house that I haven't tasted, and I should try them all in the future."

Watching Miss Song leisurely eating snacks and drinking milk tea, her heart was still unstable, and she still said: "My parents are old, and I miss my little sister in my heart, I don't know when I will be able to see each other, so that my parents at home can rest assured." ”

Miss Song put down the teacup in her hand and said, "I also know what the shopkeeper Song called me here today, but Xiao Mu signed a contract with my family, and now there is a two-year contract, I'm afraid I can't let her come back." ”

Song Xinshu nodded and said: "That's natural, it's just that the family is in Jinling City, but they can't see each other, and they miss it day and night, it's really ......."

"The work in the house is not over yet, when I am free, I will bring her to meet her family."

Song Xinshu was still a little worried, so he said: "I remember that the Song family is in the silk business? ”

"Yes, my father went back and forth between the capital and Jinling City, doing some silk business."

"I need some silk here, I want to discuss it with your father, I don't know if it's convenient today."

Song Xinshu must go to the Song Mansion today to take a look and see what Xiao Mu's life is like, otherwise her heart will always be unstable.

Miss Song saw that Song Xinshu was so persistent, so she had to agree to her request and take her maid and Song Xinshu to the Song Mansion together.

Song's house is located at the end of East Street, quiet and detached, there is only a small servant guarding the door, and when I saw Miss Song coming, I respectfully opened the door to welcome her in.

Song Xinshu followed behind Miss Song, looking at the surrounding environment, expecting to see Xiaomei's figure, but there were only a few little girls in the yard who were watering the flowers, and they didn't see Xiao Mu.

Miss Song turned around and looked at Song Xinshu and said, "Shopkeeper Song, are you going to talk to your father about the silk business first, or do you want to visit Xiao Mu first?" ”

She didn't know Song Xinshu's thoughts, but she was afraid that as soon as Song Xinshu came, Xiao Mu would follow her and leave, and she no longer wanted to stay in Song Mansion.

"I'd better visit my sister first."

Song Xinshu is full of thoughts about Xiao Mu at the moment, and he can't wait to see his sister immediately.

Miss Song gave a look to the maid beside her, and the maid said to Song Xinshu, "Shopkeeper Song, you follow me." ”

Song Xinshu followed the little maid to the backyard, and only stopped when he walked to the west room, and the little maid said: "Shopkeeper Song, Xiaomu is inside, you can go in and see." ”

Song Xinshu pushed open the door and saw two children squatting on the ground playing a game of making paper pieces.

The two children heard a sound at the door, and Xiao Mu saw that it was his third sister who came, so she stood up excitedly and threw herself into Song Xinshu's arms.

"Third sister, why are you here?" Xiao Mu rubbed in Song Xinshu's arms, raised his head and asked.

At this time, the maid said to another boy, "Young master, Madame said that there are good toys, and I want you to go over and take a look." ”

The little boy pouted and said, "But I want to play with Xiao Mu." ”

Song Xinshu took Xiao Mu's hand, leaned over and said to the little boy: "I am Xiao Mu's third sister, I will talk to Xiao Mu for a while, and I will take her to play with you in a while, okay?" ”

Xiao Mu also echoed and said, "Young Master Yu, you go to Madame first, and the third sister and I will go to you in a while." ”

After listening to Xiao Mu's words, Young Master Yu nodded unhappily and followed the little maid away.

After they left, Song Xinshu pulled Xiao Mu to sit down on the chair and said, "Daddy has been thinking about you all the time, and I have been relieved, so I specially asked me to come and see if you are doing well." ”

Xiao Mu nodded and said, "Third sister, you go back and tell your father and mother that I am doing well, and tell them not to worry." ”

Song Xinshu looked at Xiao Mu as if she had lost weight, pinched her shoulders and said, "Have you eaten well here, look at you." ”

Although Xiao Mu's body is a little thinner, the clothes she wears are very good materials, not like a little girl who does rough work, it seems that Xiao Mu is not bad here.

"I eat with Young Master Yu every day, of course I eat well, Mrs. only has Young Master Yu's son, and every day I have anything delicious to eat in the young master's room first, and the young master keeps it for me."

"Is that Young Master Yu very good to you?"

Xiao Mu nodded seriously and said, "Of course, I am the only one in this mansion who is about the same age as him, and naturally I can have fun, so the young master is naturally good to me." ”

The little sister was only eleven years old when she left home, and now she speaks like a little adult.

This must be because he has seen a lot of warmth and affection in this house, and maybe he has suffered a lot of grievances, thinking of this, Song Xinshu is very distressed.

"Then don't you want to go home, my father and mother miss you very much, thinking about when you can go home and live together, and you don't have to send someone under the fence here."

"But third sister, I have a three-year contract with the Song Mansion, and the contract time has not yet arrived, so I can't leave, and I have to pay the money if I leave."

"Now that the third sister can earn, how much do you say you want to lose, I will go to Miss Song, I can't let you be here all the time, we are all very distressed." Even if it is sky-high, Song Xinshu will try his best to raise money, but looking at Xiao Mu's meaning, it seems that he is reluctant to leave.

"Third sister, what are we doing with that silver, it will be distressing to give it to people for no reason, besides, I am not a subordinate here, I am just playing with Young Master Yu, accompanying him to read and write, it is not hard at all."

Song Xinshu asked suspiciously: "Are you here to accompany Young Master Yu to play, read and write?" ”

"Of course, this is what Madame said personally, and it has always been like this since I came to Song Mansion."

Although Song Xinshu saw Xiao Mu and Young Master Yu squatting on the ground and playing together just now, he was still puzzled in his heart, after all, it was a girl who spent money to buy, how could he do this?

Song Xinshu took Xiao Mu's hand and said, "Xiao Mu, I'd better go and talk to the lady of the Song Mansion in person, you go with me." ”

Xiao Mu looked at the third sister's resolute appearance, so she had no choice but to take her hand and go to the front hall of the Song Mansion.

At this time, Miss Song had changed into a homely goose-yellow dress, sat next to a young woman, and held an embroidered sachet in her hand and spoke.

Song Xinshu walked over, saluted and said, "You are the lady of the Song Mansion, I am Xiao Mu's third sister, the shopkeeper of the Northern Jiangsu Tea House." ”

"It turns out that the shopkeeper of Subei Tea House is Xiao Mu's third sister, and I have never heard her mention it, so sit down."

Mrs. Song laughed, there was a small whirlpool at the corner of her mouth, looking very affinity, Song Xinshu sat down on the chair and said, "I'm in a hurry today, otherwise I should bring some pastries from Subei Tea House for you to taste." ”

"Shopkeeper Song is polite, you finally came once, did you have a good talk with Xiao Mu?"

Song Xinshu pondered for a moment and said: "We have been talking for a while just now, but the father and mother of the family have not seen the little sister for a long time, and I really miss it, and it is difficult to sleep and eat, so I specially called me to ask Mrs. If I can redeem the little sister and reunite with the family, the father and mother of the family are old, and the only thing I want is to be together." ”

Before Mrs. Song could speak, Young Master Yu next to her instantly changed his face, stared at Xiao Mu and said, "Xiao Mu, are you leaving, I don't want you to go!" ”

Song Xinshu saw that Young Master Yu's tears were already rolling in his eyes, and he saw him trotting to Xiao Mu's side, taking her hand and saying, "Xiao Mu, don't you go, okay, no one will accompany me when you leave!" ”

Miss Song stepped forward, hugged Young Master Yu and said, "Brother, if you don't want Xiao Mu to go, just ask Xiao Mu what she means, and see if she wants to stay." ”

Young Master Yu looked at Xiao Mu with tears in his eyes, Xiao Mu was very embarrassed, and subconsciously glanced at Song Xinshu.

Song Xinshu saw that there was still a deep relationship between the two villains, so he said to Xiao Mu: "Xiao Mu, do you want to follow the third sister home, or stay in the Song Mansion?" ”

Xiao Mu didn't know how to answer, lowered his head and was reluctant to speak, Mrs. Song said: "Shopkeeper Song, look at these two children, they have stayed together for more than half a year, but they have real feelings, you might as well listen to me." ”
