Eight hundred and seventy-four, diaphragm
'Squeak-'
The maid guarding the door used to do chores in the kitchen, and because she was practical and diligent, she was also transferred to guard the door. At this time, when he saw Xiling Ying and his party coming, he consciously opened the door gently, and then retreated with his waist screen, without the slightest intention of brushing his face in front of Xiling Ying and winning favor.
In this regard, Xiling Ying is more satisfied.
"You don't like to open windows for ventilation." Zhou Yunxi stepped into the room and felt that the medicinal smell was even stronger, because of the addition of medicinal materials with a strange fragrance, the smell in the room became more and more weird.
The medicinal smell mixed with the depressing aroma makes people feel that they can't breathe well.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Yunxi's words made Xiling Ying look at the few maids who were beside Xili after that, and her tone was not very kind, "Why don't you open the window yet?" ”
"But before that, the doctor said that Miss Xili can't suffer from the wind and cold......"
The maid who spoke was named Minghuan, she was beautiful and moving, and her voice was as crisp as a yellow bird, which made people look at her carefully. And this side glance makes people feel even more unable to take their eyes off.
Minghuan is also considered an 'old man' in the Hou Mansion in the northwest, he is twenty-five this year, and he has been in the Hou Mansion for almost nine years, plus he is deeply popular and has qualifications, so many maids in the Hou Mansion are obedient to her.
At this time, she had the courage to speak to Xiling Ying like this, and it was also for this reason.
Admittedly, this will only make Xiling Ying feel uncomfortable.
It's not that he can really be pinched by Minghuan, but because Minghuan's identity is a little embarrassing. If she really reprimands or will Minghuan do something, she will be able to turn around and spread rumors that she is treating Minghuan harshly.
Although Xiling Ying didn't care, he didn't want to be talked about in the end.
"Concubine Qin's medical skills are excellent, she will not harm Xili." Xiling Ying said gently, "Xili is also the future sister-in-law of the princess of this world, and the princess of this world knows it." ”
This is the first time Zhou Yunxi has heard Xi Lingying call himself like this, and he also feels a little novel and interesting. However, Zhou Yunxi did not ignore it, when Xiling Ying said this, Minghuan's face became a little ugly for a moment.
It's fleeting, but it does happen.
"This is the Minghuan that Lord Lin mentioned before, right?" Zhou Yunxi had heard of Minghuan, but he didn't hear it from Lin Qing, but from Qin Fengyi, "I heard that Miss Minghuan was a maid prepared by the Northwest Hou for Lord Lin in the past?" Indeed, she is also born beautiful. ”
After a pause, Zhou Yunxi smiled, did not give Minghuan a chance to speak, and then said: "Miss Xili is unwell now, there is no need to say more about these digressions, Miss Minghuan, may you bother to open the window?" ”
Zhou Yunxi's polite attitude made Xiling Ying frown slightly.
Minghuan used to be Lin Qing's nominal maid, but in fact Lin Qing never touched her. After marrying Xiling Ying, he directly sent Minghuan to this courtyard to do things.
There is a lot of silver every month, and the treatment has not changed, but she is just transferred away from Lin Qing's side.
Xiling Ying didn't do anything to Minghuan, if it weren't for the courtyard that Lin Qing arranged for Xili to live in happened to be the courtyard where Minghuan was, Xiling Ying couldn't remember that there was such a person.
Speaking of this, some not-so-good memories suddenly poured into Xilingying's mind. happy
She still remembers clearly that when she and Lin Qing first got married, she was very estranged from the life of the Northwest Hou Mansion, and she could not get along smoothly, and Ming Huan's handwriting was indispensable.
At that time, she also had a few words to Minghuan, but when she turned her head, she was called by the Northwest Hou and said a few words openly and secretly. It's not hard to see why.
Zhou Yunxi also knew about these things, because Lin Qing had consulted Qin Fengyi on this issue earlier. After all, the two of them had similar experiences in these matters, and Qin Fengyi also had a nominal 'room maid' in the past.
It's just that Qin Fengyi has always not allowed women to get close, and the existence of the maid in the room is equivalent to non-existence. After Qin Fengyi confirmed that Huanxi Zhou Yunxi was happy, he turned around and let the maid leave the Qinhou Mansion with the deed of sale.
Those bad things, Qin Fengyi can't meet them as a matter of course.
So at that time, after Qin Fengyi knew that Minghuan's maid was not simple, his answer to Lin Qing was only four words - ask for more blessings.
"Lin Qing fell into the water many years ago." Xiling Ying whispered to Zhou Yunxi when she saw Minghuan go to open the window with a somewhat embarrassed smile, "She rescued Lin Qing." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Yunxi was able to sort out the strange feeling that emerged when he heard Qin Fengyi talk about this matter.
Also, if there was no reason in it that could be regarded as a 'life-saving grace', Lin Qing would not be able to tolerate Minghuan's small actions.
The Northwest Hou will not call Xiling Ying over because of Minghuan's few words, preaching openly and secretly. There is even a tendency to ignore the identity of Xiling Ying's 'county lord'.
Of course, there is also the prejudice of the Northwest Marquis against the people in the Western Regions.
You must know that although the Hou people in the northwest are old, they are not stupid. And Lin Qing is not a soft persimmon, he is simply ruthless when calculating people, leaving no room for it.
Minghuan is still able to be here well, and the biggest reliance is to save Lin Qing who fell into the water many years ago.
"Concubine Qin, how do you see the window open like that?" Minghuan still had a gentle smile on his face when he came back, and he didn't seem to have any offensive power, "If it's not suitable, I'll adjust it again." ”
"Just right." Zhou Yunxi smiled, since she knew what Minghuan relied on, she would not provoke Minghuan's thorn for no reason. After all, she was picky, and when she turned around, she still held her breath, "It's just that Miss Minghuan has to ask the people below to prepare some hot water and send it over." ”
"I'll go."
Minghuan responded with a smile, more than polite to Zhou Yunxi, but not respectful. This kind of attitude is not something that can be cultivated overnight.
You must know that Zhou Yunxi is now the princess of the Qinhou Mansion, and she has a great friendship with the current queen. is the wife of an executive, and her attitude towards her is nothing more than that.
A maid in Minghuan is like this......
Although Zhou Yunxi will not be unhappy because of this, he can also feel something.
This Minghuan, I'm afraid that he still remembers the identity of the 'maid in the room' in the past, and maybe he still thinks about the position of the princess of the Northwest Hou Mansion.
"Find a husband for her." Zhou Yunxi only looked at Xiling Ying after Minghuan went out, and her voice was very soft, "Find her a family with surplus in the family, kind in-laws, and motivated men." ”
"Even if she doesn't want to, no one will say that you did something wrong." After a pause, Zhou Yunxi sighed lightly, looked at Xiling Ying, and slowly spoke, "Looking at her appearance, I'm afraid there will be other incidents in the future." ”
