Chapter 34: Autumn Xiao (II)

When Sheng Qiuxiao was young, he actually met Shen Yuan. At that time, she had just been bought, and she was not yet nine years old, but she had just understood the way of the world. There is no food all year round, the little Sheng girl's face is sallow, and she is as thin as a cat, and the girl who is also thin and small, but much more generous than her, suddenly called her yearning.

After a long time, one day the housekeeper's mother lectured, and she was able to know that the girl was the eldest girl Yan'er under the knee of the pavilion master's wife, and she was also the little master of the Leng Xiang Pavilion, so she was naturally different from them.

Soon Shui Yun came back, Shui Fu stepped forward to answer, Shui Zhi took the tea tray and pot, and the two people in Shen Yuan's house helped set the rice cloth and chopsticks. Sheng Qiuxiao couldn't help, Mo Yuyuan saw her embarrassment, and sent down the four small ones, leaving only her and Shui Zhi to serve nearby. Shen Yuan thought that this was just a scene, and Qiu Xiao would retreat after serving the soup, so he didn't make a sound.

Shui Zhi added rice, Qiu Xiao served soup, and there was no sound of clanging bowls and spoons between the exchanges, and the rules were really not bad at all. After she put down the white porcelain long-handled spoon, she served two bowls of three-fresh bamboo shoot soup with both hands, and continued to stand by the side. Seeing this, Shen Yuan felt strange that it was different from what Fang Cai had imagined, so he asked her, "Have you had dinner?" Why don't you see a pair of dishes and chopsticks for you? ”

Qiu Xiao always had a gentle smile on his face, pursed his lips when he heard the words, glanced at Mo Yu Mandarin first, and only replied with acquiescence: "Miss Hui, not yet." Today, Qiu Xiao visited Miss for the first time, and got the instructions of Mrs. to serve tea and rice, and in the future, she was willing to serve tea and water, handle the broom, and serve Mrs. and Miss around. ”

Shen Yuan took the bowl and held the chopsticks to pluck the rice, he was not very interested in eating, but was quite surprised by the words and deeds of this Sheng girl.

"People look like signs, and their minds are also smart, and sure enough, Mrs. has carefully cultivated them for all these years, and I am ashamed of myself."

When she said this, she deliberately looked at the other party's expression, especially the pair of dark deer eyes. To her surprise, the two pieces under Sheng Qiuxiao's eyes were slightly red, her eyes were bright, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily concave a pair of small pear vortices, and she blessed her shamefully, and said softly: "Miss has won the award." ”

"Alright, don't shame her. Hurry up and eat, don't poke. Mo Yu Yuanyuan spoke out in time, rounded the scene for Qiu Xiao, and by the way, stopped Shen Yuan's move of messing around with rice, and turned back to Shui Zhi and said, "Go and move a pestle and add a pair of dishes and chopsticks." You eat with them, you don't have to be here. ”

In this way, the maids were all sent out to eat together at the table outside the ink mandarin duck. Qiu Xiao obediently, sitting on the middle of the pestle, her eyes have been paying attention, adding soup and vegetables, serving diligently, Mo Yu Mandarin also said that there is no need to pounce so frequently, she responded in her mouth, and her hands are not free.

"Hey, wait a minute." Finally, when she went to get the spoon for the third time and wanted to add soup to Shen Yuan, the latter couldn't hold it back, and pressed it on the back of her hand: "Take a closer look, I only drank two sips, how can I use it to fill up?" Today's vegetarian diet is originally for more sincerity when I enter the incense tomorrow, so that people are waiting, but it seems that I am unwilling and reluctant, right? ”

Qiu Xiao was obviously stunned, and happened to meet Shen Yuan's eyes, and then understood her words, and then blushed and continued: "Yes...... Fortunately, the young lady advised, and I owe it to consideration. ”

So the meal finally became normal, and everyone's small movements that were not hidden were all seen by Mo Yuyuan, which made her very satisfied with this first meeting. Among the girls who have not yet seen guests in Leng Xiangge, Qiu Xiao is the most outstanding in terms of appearance, figure, and demeanor, and it is rare that her mind is also transparent - unlike the current top brand, she was sold in after she was too old, and no matter how much she trained, she couldn't change those inferior characters...... Mo Yu Yuan immediately stopped when he thought of this, and he didn't want to let that useless disturb his mind.

Shen Yuan didn't dare to say that she liked Sheng Qiu Xiao and Mo Yu Yuan, and she didn't see that she was as-for-tat as when she talked about watching the warbler, which already showed that she was not disgusted with the other party, and Qiu Xiao was not so restrained in the past, Mo Yu Yuan was also surprised, but she didn't expect Shen Yuan to take the initiative to explain. This is very good, it can get Shen Yuan's blue eyes, it can be seen that it is indeed good.

The vegetarian food made in the kitchen tasted very good, and Mo Yu Mandarin was also in a good mood, looking at the two girls in front of him with satisfaction, ignoring the difference between relatives and relatives for the time being, and telling him to eat more slowly.

"So it seems that this Qiu Xiao girl was deliberately cultivated by Madame?"

Scarlet Yun took a water-milled peach wood comb, dipped it in peach branch water to comb Shen Yuan's hair, and talked to her with half questions. Shen Yuan had just bathed, changed his bedclothes and sat on the beauty couch, the room was full of mist, and it was accompanied by the fragrance of white orchid dew. The bed robe was covered with a thin cotton shawl, and his hair was half-dried with a large towel and scattered all over his waist. Scarlet Moon went to the backyard with the little maid carrying the water and went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of cold soup.

Shen Yuan played with a string of sandalwood bracelets with his back to Scarlet Cloud, and Leng Buding backhanded a chestnut, hitting the latter's head impartially: "This is too stupid, the girl Leng Xiangge has raised since childhood, which one is not carefully cultivated?" Her voice was not high but serious, and Scarlet Cloud could hear it well.

"Oops! Miss, it really hurts! Scarlet Cloud screamed in pain, his facial features suddenly wrinkled, and he covered his head with a pitiful face, "The slave is stupid...... Hiss! But, but miss, you can do it right, just hit it right in the middle! It hurts......"

Shen Yuan gently and skillfully withdrew his hand, continued to play with the bracelet, turned his back to her and made a smug smile, but his voice was serious, and he only said: "It doesn't hurt to remember the lesson, which one deliberately cultivated?" Listening to this, it is like the lady is biased and has other intentions, and it is spread out to cause people to discuss. ”

"Huh?" Scarlet Yunben was still pursed, rubbing his head desperately, when he suddenly heard Shen Yuan's words, his eyes widened instantly, and he realized that he seemed to be speechless, so he hurriedly put down his hand to cover his mouth, and slipped out of his fingers: "Then, that's the slave's mistake...... Don't dare to talk nonsense anymore, it really should be fought, it should be fought. ”

Scarlet Cloud begged for mercy, and quietly smacked her tongue in her heart - her young lady was really magical, she kept her back to her, but she seemed to have seen everything, and pointed back with her backhand: "Don't bother, go get some peppermint oil and wipe it, it won't hurt in a while." Scarlet Cloud put down the comb, just smeared it with peppermint oil, and grinned at the cold and spicy sensation.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and a larger ice box was placed in the middle of the room. Peppermint oil is served almost every day, and the room is cool. After taking the soup tea and rinsing his mouth, Shen Yuan fell asleep, and Scarlet Cloud stayed by the bed to fan, waiting for her to fall asleep before putting the curtain down, and he also went back to rest outside.
