Chapter 452: Smile
At this moment, the other girls and servants went to do what they should be busy with according to Fang Jinyan's instructions, and there were only Mother Wang, Raindrops, Clouds, Yuzhu and Aster in the house, and everyone put the brazier next to the bed and sat around to keep warm.
"How is Li Fu?" Fang Jinyan asked.
"The clouds stopped the bleeding, and now they don't shout anymore." Raindrop replied.
"Fourth Miss, the old slave sees that your spirit is not very good, or you can rest first, and you will have to hurry tomorrow, so that these girls and slaves can watch those people work." Mother Wang looked at Fang Jinyan worriedly, Fang Jinyan leaned on the folded quilt, put her cheeks on the quilt with one hand, and gently tapped her thigh with the other hand, as if she was thinking about something, there was no joy or sorrow in those beautiful big eyes, the pretty face looked extremely indifferent, the fire in front of her was reflected on her face flickeringly, half of her face was hidden in the shadows, and the other half of her face was expressionless.
Fang Jinyan snorted, as if he hadn't heard Mother Wang's words, and then a man outside the door said softly: "Fourth Miss, there is a little guy over there in the mill who let the dog bite him, and my aunt doesn't dare to call the shots, so let the slave come and ask you, see what's the matter?" ”
As he spoke, Yuzhu saw that Fang Jinyan glanced at him, and immediately understood, got up and opened the door, only to see a thin man of fifteen or sixteen years old standing outside the door, with his head slightly bowed, standing with his hands hanging under his shoulders and his feet together, his body a little thin.
"Come in and talk." Fang Jinyan's eyebrows were calm, his eyes looked at the person who came in, and the door closed gently behind the person.
Maybe it's cold outside the door. The room was so warm that the man couldn't help but sneeze, and when he was done, he quickly knelt down. He put his hands on the ground, put his forehead on the ground, and said in his mouth: "The slave is ten thousand deaths, please punish the fourth lady." ”
Fang Jinyan smiled, this laugh out loud, giggling very nicely, Yuzhu and Ziyuan glanced at each other. Each other's eyes said a thing, our fourth lady would still be smiling!
Fang Jinyan saw that the people in the room had the same expression except for the clouds and raindrops. Although he didn't dare to look at himself, his expression was as if he had seen a monster, and he thought that it must be his own appearance today that scared these people who didn't know him, let alone them. Now even my aunt is scared like that. Naturally, there is nothing strange about it.
"It's just a sneeze, what a punishment, get up and speak." Fang Jinyan covered his mouth and took advantage of everyone's inattention, and winked playfully at the clouds on the side, who smiled secretly in his heart, but he couldn't see the clues on the surface.
The slave got up cautiously, as if he was about to sneeze again, and quickly covered his mouth with his hand. Sure enough, it was again, and he peeked at Fang Jinyan in panic. Seeing that her expression was not gloomy, she was relieved.
"What's your name? How old is this year, where was you before entering the house, and who else is in the family? What do they do? Fang Jinyan asked.
"Back to the fourth lady's words, the slave is called Liu Shi, the nickname is Shishi, he is sixteen years old this year, and at the age of seven, he let the third lady buy into the house, the family was originally from western Anhui, and when he was seven years old, his hometown flooded, I was separated from my family, and I thought that I would not be alive, and my family used to be a laborer, and there was an older brother and two younger sisters, but they were never seen again."
"Raise your head and let me see." Fang Jinyan said softly. The people on the side wondered in their hearts, especially Mother Wang, this Liu Shi, who used to be just a rough servant in the third lady's room, doing chores or something, although people looked honest, but why did this fourth lady suddenly seem to care about him, and asked so many things about him?
The slave raised his head after hearing Fang Jinyan's words, but he didn't dare to look at Fang Jinyan's face, his eyes looked towards the top of Fang Jinyan's head.
Fang Jinyan glanced at Liu Shi, his eyes were not big but he was full of shrewdness, his skin was a little dark, his eyebrows were dark, but he looked at his eyes even smaller, but with this cautious look of pleading, it seemed to be full of sincerity.
"Liu Shi"
"The minions are here!"
"What do you do in my mother's room?"
"Miss Hui's words, it's just to do some chores, chopping wood, making fires, carrying water and cooking rice."
"You can also cook?" When Fang Jinyan heard this, he seemed to be particularly interested.
Mother Wang on the side chuckled: "Miss Hugh wants to listen to his nonsense, the third lady is the most favored by the master, in addition to the old lady and the eldest lady's room, only the third lady's room has its own small kitchen, and the cook is also invited by the third lady herself from Hangzhou, he just watches others cook, maybe a few small dishes." ”
Fang Jinyan looked up at Mother Wang slightly, although there was still a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, there was clear blame in her eyes. Mother Wang realized that she was speechless, when the master was talking, where was your turn to interject a minion, knowing that you are the old man next to the master, and he will not blame, and those who don't know think that your master did not teach you well.
"Old ...... Old Slave ...... Damn the old slave! Mother Wang hurriedly got up to make amends to Fang Jinyan.
"Mother Wang, you are also tired for a day, let the girls wait for you to rest, you have to hurry early tomorrow morning, you are not tired, you still have to mention the big and small things along the way."
Fang Jinyan's voice seemed to be squeezed out of her throat, softly like a warm wind blowing through everyone's ears, but such a smart person as Mother Wang naturally heard it, this fourth miss ostensibly took care of herself, but in fact she was in the way, although she was a subordinate next to Miss Four's biological mother, but she also knew that there was a difference between respect and inferiority, and she knew in her heart that this fourth miss was not a master to provoke, so she got up and gave a salute, without saying a word, and went down with her two girls.
"Stone, you go ahead and talk yours." Fang Jinyan saw that Wang's mother went out with the girl, and motioned for Yuzhu to close the door, as if she had completely forgotten what Liu Shi was looking for when she came in.
At this time, there was a rush of footsteps from the direction of the mill, Fang Jinyan frowned slightly, the rain was in his eyes, he walked to the door, and saw his aunt coming in a hurry, with a layer of fine sweat on her forehead.
The aunt was probably in a hurry to diagnose, and she forgot to be afraid, she stepped into the door with one foot, stared at Fang Jinyan in horror, pointed to the direction of the mill with a fat hand, and said breathlessly: "Fourth Miss, the person who was bitten by the dog had a lot of blood, let's let Miss Yunduo take a look, in case it ......"
Fang Jinyan looked at his fat aunt, who was no longer what he looked like, and sneered: "What if? The body sat up slowly, and Ziyuan on the side quickly found a cushion to lean behind Fang Jinyan, so that she could be more comfortable.
The aunt glanced at Fang Jinyan, quickly lowered her head, and said in a slurring voice: "If someone from the Fang family dies here, it's always not good." ”
"Do you know that it's not good for someone to die in your house? Then when I was nine years old, I fell down from the mountain for three whole days, and you didn't come up to me on the mountain, if it weren't for the clouds and raindrops, I would have died a long time ago, what else do you think about badly, it's not good for a slave to die in your house, is it okay for the fourth lady of the Fang family to die in your house? Saying that, Fang Jinyan got up and got off the ground, slapped the table, the teacup jumped, rolled to the ground and shattered, and the green tea flowed all over the ground.
My aunt suddenly shuddered, couldn't help but take a step back, leaned against the door just now, looked at Fang Jinyan with a panicked face, and then looked at the clouds and raindrops around Fang Jinyan, with pleading in her eyes.
Fang Jinyan snorted and returned to the bed to sit down, Yuzhu, who was waiting on the side, hurriedly called someone to come in and clean up the broken teacup, and then walked to her aunt's side and gave her a look, signaling her to go out first, her aunt hesitated at first, and then probably understood, and hurriedly went out, but heard Fang Jinyan say coldly beside him: "If you can't survive, drag it out and bury it in your backyard, don't you always say that the vegetables in the backyard don't grow well?" It's fertilization! It's just that you don't want to call the doctor brought by Wang's mother, let me know, be careful that you can't see the sun tomorrow morning, I said ugly things ahead, how you treated me in the past, although I can't pay you back one ten-thousandth of it today, but I will definitely pay it back! ”
The aunt didn't expect that Fang Jinyan could see the thoughts of herself and Yuzhu, and she didn't dare to look back, but just agreed and walked towards the mill.
Fang Jinyan looked like he was tired, found a comfortable position for himself, leaned back on the bed, and said: "That's it, I'll talk about the stone matter slowly later, but from now on you will follow me and serve, you will go back to Mother Wang's side for a while, and the girl will say that I said, and you will follow me in the future, and you will only listen to me alone, if I am not there, I will listen to the rain and clouds, you know?" ”
Liu Shi hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to Fang Jinyan three times, and when he looked up, there was only a faint joy on his face: "The stone knows, and the stone will listen to the fourth lady alone in the future." ”
"Okay, you go down first, you go and see if there is any news about the things you just explained, you will reply to me alone, and others don't have to go back and forth one by one."
After hearing this, Liu Shi turned around and went down.
"Yuzhu, you still go to see the mill, my aunt is still good at brute force, her mind is full of tofu, you stare at it." Yuzhu went out
"Ziyuan, you go and see if Li Fu is out of breath, if not, let the minions who are looking at him open their eyes for me, these people say that they don't necessarily want to send a letter back to the eldest lady, there are many side doors of these mansion doors, I have to guard against it!"
"Yes, the fourth young lady slave will go now." Shion walked out the door and closed the door gently.
Now that there were only three people left in the room, Fang Jinyan, Yudi and Yunduo, she walked to the window and looked, and saw that the three of them went to different places according to their own wishes, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and her face immediately showed a smile that she could only have with these two sisters.
