"Can't you stop working in the house? Why not find an embroidery job at home? Aster put away the jade ring and asked with a wink.

"I've thought about it too, but I've been doing it in the house for so many years, and if I do it for a few more years and twenty years, I can get a lot of money back, and now I'm gone, I'm really a little reluctant, and you're alone in the house, how can I rest assured."

Aster felt very heartwarming after hearing this, but she didn't expect Sister Pear Blossom to still think about her at this time.

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll go with you." Aster said with a smile.

Two days later, Aster and Pear Blossom really made a contract to leave the house, both of them are living contracts, not dead contracts, and after getting them, they can take their things and leave.

Aster is also righteous, and gave some small pieces of jewelry to Pear Blossom, saying that it is the cost of food and clothing on weekdays, but there is a fast gold among them, which is enough for a family for several years.

Pear Blossom will say that the eldest young master of the Ning family is good, he is really good to Aster, gave Aster so many good things, and said that Aster will consider going back to continue to be a maid in the future.

Even if Pear Blossom doesn't say these things, Aster is also ready to do it, she hides that person in her heart, that is, if others don't say it, how can she forget it herself.

Lihua's family is poor, but there is a grocery room, Aster lives there, and some sundries, there are two layers of quilts at night, but she doesn't feel cold, for fear that the child will be frightened, she washed off the red paint on her face, and made two black spots on her face, but it has become another ugly appearance, but it really won't make people afraid.

I can hear the man's cough at night, Aster has seen the man's leg, the injury is really serious, if it is more serious, it will probably be soulless, and now I can't walk, and I keep coughing, which is also quite abrasive, but the good thing is that there is a good lady, Pear Blossom has been serving him, and I don't dislike it or anything.

On weekdays, Aster helps fetch water and cook at home, occasionally washes clothes together, and her son can already go to school, and she occasionally helps to pick it up.

It's a very leisurely day.

Although she came out of the Gu Mansion now, Zi Wan didn't think about returning to Ning Mansion immediately, first of all, she was still afraid of the old master and the little master in the mansion, lest she run into those people, and then she didn't know if Ning Yuan would remember her next year, in case she forgot her, then she had to think of other ways to let him remember.

And it's been three months, and it's been a while to get through it, and a year is not much hard.

With such a thought, she really lived here, wearing coarse linen clothes every day, eating coarse tea and light rice, but she didn't dislike it at all.

In the blink of an eye, it was a year of time, and Aster couldn't remember this day clearly, but because of an incident that happened in the city.

When Sister Lihua came back from buying medicine, she said that the eldest young master of the Ning family went to the General's Mansion to compete in martial arts, and if she won the battle, she won the battle, but after she won, she had to ask the little general for someone.

The little general said that the people were gone, but the young master Ning didn't believe it, so he sent people to guard the door of the Gu Mansion, and let people watch them every day, and said that he was afraid that General Gu would send people away.

This is a rare thing, when she said it, Lihua was still smiling, and she didn't expect that the person who the eldest young master of the Ning family was looking for was Aster.

"I don't know which eldest lady I fell in love with, and I don't remember any eldest lady living in the General's Mansion? I guess we moved in after we left. Rika herself wondered.

No one would have thought that a young master would act like this because of a maid, and a maid in Wulu City is also a worthless life, how noble is this young master's identity, what kind of maid does he want, how can he move the crowd for a maid.

Aster was happy, which showed that Ning Yuan had not forgotten her, and was still thinking about her.

So she packed up her things and prepared to go to Ning Mansion to find Ning Yuan the next day, as soon as she thought of this, Aster felt that her heart was sweet, and she could wake up happily when she slept.

"Are you really leaving?" Pear Blossom sent Aster to the mouth of the alley, she couldn't go far, and the children at home had to help her get dressed after they got up, and there were many things she had to help with.

"Yes, you can't stay here forever, and don't you want me to go to Ningfu too?" Aster was carrying a small burden, with a white veil on her face, and many black spots could be faintly seen under the white veil, which she had deliberately lit, just to disgust the men who watched her.

"I hope you can be well, if you want to go, then go, I'll go to Ningfu to see you another day." Pear Blossom touched Aster's little hand and couldn't help but shed tears, "I don't know why, I always feel that if you leave, we will never see each other again." ”

This sentence made Aster's heart skip a beat, "Sister Lihua, what are you talking about, I must be fine, and you must be okay too." Aster also shed tears as she spoke, and she was afraid that Pear Blossom would be bullied here.

Lihua wiped her tears, "Look at me, you are going to do what you like, how can I say these words, it's not good for me, you go to Ningfu early." Rika said.

"Then I'll go." Aster also wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, turned around and walked along the street towards Ningfu.

When she arrived at Ning Mansion, it was already noon, and it was very inconvenient without a carriage, so she also rested along the way.

She doesn't go in and out of Ningfu often, although she has lived in Ningfu for several years, but the people here don't know her at all.

"Hurry up, or I'll arrest you and take you to the official."

The guards of the Ning Mansion were very unceremonious, and kept driving Aster away, as if she was such a suspicious person.

Aster went to the back door to try, but still couldn't get in, and finally she came to the front door, thinking about how she could meet Ning Yuan here, when the time came, as long as she went up to say hello, Young Master Ning would definitely let her in.

When she thought of that picture, Aster was very happy.

There was a tree opposite Ning Mansion, so she walked over there and sat under the tree, beating her legs constantly, waiting for Ning Yuan.

After waiting for about an hour, Aster was a little tired, drowsy, and unwilling to move. And he fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes, it was already dark, and the gate of the Ning Mansion was closed, and there was no trace of anyone entering.

It looked like she couldn't wait today, Aster stood up and looked at Ning Fu reluctantly, she thought that she would try it again tomorrow, and she would definitely be able to see Young Master Ning.

found a nearby inn, Aster gave fifteen cents, paid the cost of accommodation, and asked for an inferior room.

Suddenly, my stomach growled.

"Little girl, do you want to have dinner? There are fresh pancakes and noodle buns, so don't go hungry. When the shopkeeper heard this, he continued to make calculations, and he was very sure that she would eat the same.

When Aster went out, she gave all the money to Pear Blossom, and she didn't have much money on her, but now she has taken twenty yuan.

She touched the remaining five cents, "I want two buns." Aster took out another two pennies.

"Okay, you go and sit on the side, I'll ask the guy to bring you a bowl of hot soup, drink some hot soup to warm up on this cold day." The shopkeeper is also a kind-hearted person, just looking at Aster's hands that know how to red and purple, he knows that he must be frozen enough.

"Thank you, shopkeeper, and I wish you a prosperous business." Aster's heart warmed and she found a place to sit down.

Eating the buns, Aster was slightly scared in her heart, she didn't know what she was afraid of, obviously there was nothing to be afraid of, but she was very uneasy.

"In this weather, why did it suddenly snow, the shopkeeper, come with a few side dishes and scald two pots of wine." A few guests came from outside, mixed with the wind and snow, and they stood in the doorway, picking up the snowflakes on their bodies, and they were wearing clothes without patches, and they didn't look like they were from poor families.

The shopkeeper's smile bent his eyes and told the man to go to work.

"This eldest young master of the Ning family is really okay, just to ask for a maid, he is so hard-working."

"Your news is too ill-informed, one of my sisters is a concubine of the city lord, today I went to the city lord's mansion to find her, and I saw with my own eyes what contract the two of them signed."

"What kind of contract?" The person next to him asked curiously.

"It seems that General Gu can't interfere in the Ning family's business in the future, he is not allowed to interfere, and he has to turn a blind eye, you also know that businessmen are mercenary, and what maids are fake, mainly to show General Gu's face."

"It's really true that you say that, so that the Ning family's business will get bigger and bigger in our place, and the person in charge of the business is General Gu, I'm really stupid, why didn't I think of this stubble."

"How stupid are you, no matter how much the Ning family is, they don't dare to show the Gu family's face, although these two people are secretly competing, but they will not be torn to death, after all, no one can say what will happen in the future, this city lord has no heir, he must be selected from the younger generation, maybe it is this favored General Gu, who doesn't have a long eye to provoke such a character."

"Yes, yes, when you say that, the mouth is suddenly opened, come on, let's have a drink."

When the hot wine came up, a few people touched a glass, and it was warm in the stomach, dispelling a lot of chills.

Aster was on the side, and when she heard these words, she was in a fog, and she didn't know what these people were talking about, but because she had something to do with Ning Yuan, she couldn't help but prick up her ears.

"Are you talking about the Ning family's eldest young master and General Gu?" The person who had a good thing next to him interjected and asked, "Didn't this young master of the Ning family find the general's mansion for the sake of women?" Listening to your words, it doesn't seem to be like this. ”

The person who spoke just now smiled, "This eldest young master of the Ning family is not a fool, he doesn't want any woman these days, he just found a reason to blackmail General Gu, but this General Gu is also strange, he was really coerced." "It's also quite puzzling.

"What's going on with the maid?"
