Mingjuan shrank back again, if it weren't for squatting, it is estimated that she would have jumped up. But now he is holding his hands behind the ground, and he seems to be climbing backwards, as if he wants to climb as far as possible.

Su Jinyao saw that Mingjuan was frightened like this, and temporarily covered the cage with her hand, and then motioned for Mingjuan to stay away.

Mingjuan withdrew a long way again, and Su Jinyao reached out to pull away the hay a little more, and took out a "snake" about two feet long from it.

It's just that the snake in Su Jinyao's hand is intertwined with white and golden patterns, and the light shines on the yellow scales, which are shining like gold.

Su Jinyao gently stroked the "snake" with her hand, and the snake slowly moved, raised its head, and spit out the letter.

Su Jinyao said: "This is not a snake, but a python, and it is also a rare and precious golden python." ”

Mingjuan and Mingluo both stared at the golden python in Su Jinyao's hand, only to feel goosebumps popping up on their bodies.

Mingjuan said boldly: "Miss, why did the third son of the Feng family give you this thing?" It's not good for a girl to play with snakes. ”

Su Jinyao smiled when she heard this, and said, "So, he is a person with a heart." I just asked Yuguiren for a way to tame a war python, and he knew that he would send me a golden python. ”

Yugui people said at the beginning that war pythons are not easy to domesticate, and they need to be fed and domesticated in special ways from an early age to be able to meet the standards of war pythons. And the biggest difficulty is that there are almost no pythons here that can be domesticated by Su Jinyao.

At that time, Su Jinyao said that as long as there is a way, she doesn't need Yugui to get a python for her, she will figure it out herself.

And Feng Shusheng must have heard the news, so he immediately sent Su Jinyao such a one.

In other words, Feng Shusheng is really smart. He used this method to force Su Jinyao to remove the Gu poison from him, and then he could get the method of taming the python from Yuguiren.

If Su Jinyao can't heal him, then this golden python can only be treated as an ordinary pet in Su Jinyao's hands.

Su Jinyao gently fiddled with this golden python, judging from its length, this golden python is still young, and it should be the best period for domestication.

But the more Su Jinyao played, the more frightened Mingjuan and Mingluo became, thinking that she had brought this cage back just now, Mingluo was trembling one after another.

Then, Mingluo seemed to think of something, and knelt down with a "plop".

Mingluo really thinks too much

Mingluo knelt down like this, and Su Jinyao was stunned. As soon as he looked up, he saw that Mingluo looked like she was about to cry, so he asked her, "What's wrong?" Afraid of this? ”

"Miss, if there is something wrong with Mingluo, if you want to beat or scold me, you will never complain, and please make it clear to Miss, and Mingluo will be punished willingly." After that, Mingluo put his hands on the ground and wanted to kowtow.

Mingjuan hurriedly grabbed her and asked, "Mingluo, what's wrong with you?" Miss didn't say where you weren't. ”

But Mingluo did have a sad face, looking at Su Jinyao with tears in her eyes, it seemed that Su Jinyao didn't speak, she still had to kowtow.

Su Jinyao was also stunned, although she was good at figuring out people's hearts, but those were also the thoughts of some ordinary people.

In other words, the more people in high positions, the more bends in their hearts, the easier it is for Su Jinyao to figure out.

After all, people's status is high to a certain extent, and what they need is nothing more than fame and fortune. If you think about it according to this routine, you will not go in the wrong direction, and it will naturally be easy to understand what the other party means.

And Mingluo, who was kneeling in front of him, said that he was an ordinary person, but he was just a scary. In other words, they are not even the working people at the bottom, but the oppressed and strictly disciplined handmaidens.

Such a human servility is very heavy, and loyalty is too strong, and it is even more difficult to fathom. Su Jinyao didn't know what special thing she would do because of her so-called loyalty.

So Su Jinyao thought about it for a long time, but she didn't find anything wrong with her, maybe it was because of this Mingluo's heart. But what is Mingluo worried about?

Mingjuan also saw that Su Jinyao was constantly frowning, so she simply knelt down, pulled Mingluo and asked, "What's the matter with you?" Although we have just followed Miss, she has been very good to us in the past two days. Miss has never lost her temper, let alone said that we were wrong there, why did you cry all of a sudden? ”

Mingluo looked at Mingjuan, then at Su Jinyao, bit her lip, and said, "But, but just now Miss ordered me to take this cage away." At that time, I was holding this cage, and this python was entrenched in it, and if it suddenly came out, I wouldn't ...... So I wondered if I had done something wrong and didn't know it, which made Miss angry. Punish me for this? Whether it was bitten or not, it was a warning. ”

Su Jinyao heard Ming Luo say this, and her frowning brows slowly relaxed.

She put the slowly moving golden python back into the cage, put the hay back in, and covered the golden python's body. Then he turned his head and asked, "Mingjuan, what do you say?" What do I mean? Or do you also think that I mean what MINO said? ”

Mingjuan was stunned for a moment and looked at the golden python in the cage. The gold and white python is covered with hay, and if you don't pay special attention, it's really hard to tell which one is the python and which one is the hay.

And the golden python's body only moved slightly, entrenched and shrunk its head and remained motionless. Such a motionless golden python is even more difficult to find.

After reading it, Mingjuan shook her head, turned her head to Mingluo and said, "Mingluo, you think too much." Miss didn't mean that at all. ”

Mingluo shook her head with tears in her eyes, although she didn't speak, she obviously didn't believe it.

Mingjuan sighed and said, "When Miss asked us to take this cage away, she didn't say who would take it, anyone in the house can take it, it doesn't have to be you." Instead, I beckoned you to come over, and you yourself picked up the cage. ”

Mingluo was stunned, then nodded. The situation at that time was like this, Su Jinyao did not designate Mingluo to take it.

Mingluo said again: "And I still remember very clearly, after you left with this cage, Miss specially told you not to put it in the house, but in a cool place at the door." Right? ”

Mingluo nodded again, but obviously she hadn't understood what Mingjuan meant, so the tears in her eyes were still shining.

Mingjuan knew that Mingluo was afraid that she was really incurable, and she couldn't figure out such a simple question.

She had to continue: "As far as I know, snakes have the habit of hibernating, as long as they are cold, they don't like to move, and they even sleep as if they are dead. It's the first time I've seen this golden python, but I think it's similar to the snake's habits. And the young lady explained to you like this, probably for the sake of your safety, afraid that if you put it in a warm place, it will recover and crawl out of the cage on its own. Therefore, Miss is thinking about you, not what you think, in order to scare you and punish you, she let you take this. ”

Mingluo listened to Mingjuan's explanation, and suddenly realized that the tears in her eyes were gone, followed by gratitude and remorse.

She hurriedly bowed down and kowtowed, and said anxiously: "It's Mingluo who thought wrong and misunderstood Miss's mind." Mingluo should be punished, please punish the lady heavily. ”

After listening to Mingjuan's explanation, Su Jinyao had already stood up. Go to the basin and clean your hands with water, then sit down at the table and look at the dishes that have just been set.

The hot items in the food box were egg custard and glutinous rice porridge, as well as two pieces of fried golden radish cake.

She picked up the chopsticks and fiddled with them twice in her hand, then slowly turned to Mingjuan and Mingluo, and said lightly: "Get up." I'm not a master who loves to punish people, and getting along calmly is just a peace of mind. ”

Mingjuan's heart "chuckled" and turned her head to look at Mingluo.

And Mingluo showed a somewhat comforting look because of Su Jinyao's words, as if she felt that Su Jinyao wouldn't blame her for saying this.

In fact, Su Jinyao didn't intend to blame Ming Luo. The girl originally loved to ponder, maybe this Mingluo still has a slight persecution paranoia?

However, it has nothing to do with Su Jinyao. She didn't bother to worry about other people's business.

Therefore, Su Jinyao said lightly: "What happened, Mingjuan's analysis is correct, I am also worried that this golden python will crawl out by itself, making you afraid." However, I am the master, and I don't need you to care about what I like to raise. Since Mingluo is so scared, forget it, where did you come from and where are you going, I don't mean to embarrass you, I just don't want to take you with me. ”

Su Jinyao said very clearly, she didn't need such a slave with few tendons. No matter how loyal Ming Luo is, Su Jinyao doesn't have the heart to train her again.

What's more, sometimes it is not enough to be a slave and a maid to be faithful, what is needed is brains and know how to cooperate.

For example, in front of outsiders, slaves and maids must learn to cooperate with their masters to act. Sometimes the master beats and scolds the slaves and maids around him, or the most common trick also has a bitter plan.

The maid that the master doesn't want

Su Jinyao felt that no matter which trick Mingjuan was, she was competent. But if Mingluo is used, it is estimated that she will cry and kneel directly to beg for mercy.

can't get the best effect, what is Su Jinyao still doing with her by her side? Comb your hair and makeup, and other maids are estimated to do the same, and there are people who can do it better than her.

In terms of loyalty, there is no shortage of loyal people around Su Jinyao, Qiu Ying and Xiuning are more loyal than Ming Luo, after all, Qiu Ying and Xiuning have been following Su Jinyao for a long time.

Mingluo listened to Su Jinyao's arrangement for herself, and was obviously stunned. She probably didn't expect that she just thought about it a little more, afraid that her master would be dissatisfied with her, and she would end up being expelled by her master.

Mingluo hurriedly knelt on the ground again and said, "Miss, Mingjuan and I have been together since childhood, and the six of us are not only loyal, but also perform our own duties when doing things, and we can serve our masters the most comfortably." Miss, can you please see in ......"

"You mean, I need to see the faces of a few of you?" Su Jinyao's face sank slightly, and said, "I said that I am not a harsh master, but if you think that I can't do without you, then you are wrong." Even, do you think that the six of you are of one heart, so I dare you go, and the remaining five will not be loyal to me anymore? ”

Su Jinyao hates self-righteous people the most, and she hates even more things that add others to her consumption if she doesn't go well.

Ming Luo said this, on the surface, it seemed to say how tacit the six of them cooperated together, and how thoughtful they served their masters. But in fact, I'm afraid that the meaning of mapping is that the six of them are working together to advance and retreat together.

But if Su Jinyao is taken out of this matter by her, will there be a maid who makes a mistake in the future, and she will have to let go of everything else to intercede?

If you don't let go of this one, will the rest of them rebel? Su Jinyao categorically wouldn't give her such an opportunity.

Mingjuan was also taken aback when she heard Mingluo's words.

In all fairness, Mingjuan, Mingluo and the other four girls did grow up together, and they were trained by their grandmothers all the way, and it is impossible to say that there is no affection.

But Mingjuan is a smart person, she knows what her master is most taboo, and she also understands that the last thing she can do as a slave is to gang up.

As long as they are loyal to their masters, they must think about their master's position at all times. But when Mingluo said this, he really had a bit of a meaning to pull them all into the water.

Mingjuan also quickly knelt down and said, "Miss Mingjian, Mingjuan is dedicated to the master, and there will never be two hearts." There is sisterhood in private, but compared with the master's intentions, it is natural to obey the master's orders. Ming Luo is younger and doesn't know much about these, so please don't blame the master. But if we want to follow her all the way, that's not a thing. Miss, I may not understand other people's thoughts, but at least I Mingjuan wants to be by your side, and I have no second thoughts. ”

Su Jinyao listened and smiled slightly. It seems that Mingjuan is indeed sensible, and her scheming is stronger than several other people, no wonder she can be the leader of these six girls.

Speaking of which, Su Jinyao likes to deal with smart people the most, she is not afraid of the other party's calculations, she is afraid that the other party's solid eyes will not want anything, and when the time comes, she will not know how she died, Su Jinyao is lazy

Gotta clean up the mess for them.

Mingjuan saw the smile on Su Jinyao's face and knew that she was right. After thinking about it, he said, "Miss, why don't I call the others now and ask them what they mean." ”

Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Go ahead." Let them not think about it, just say that I don't need so many maids around me, if they are willing to stay, they will continue to follow me, or they are willing to go with Ming Luo to find the next master. ”

Mingjuan agreed, got up and went out.

Su Jinyao took advantage of Mingjuan's outing, got up and went to the dresser, opened a small drawer below, and took out a few pieces of silver.

When he walked back again, he saw that Mingluo was still kneeling, and his eyes were full of tears again, so he said, "It's okay, you can get up too." After a while, I will ask Mingjuan to send you back, and I won't say anything more, and Mama won't blame you. ”

Speaking of which, Mingluo's makeup techniques and combing style of hair are quite popular with Su Jinyao, but she is too dull for Su Jinyao to take her with her.

Even if there is a special training by Mama, she will teach her all the palace etiquette and things that should be paid attention to. But qualification is innate, and whether you can be a person or not can not be taught, and no one can make up for this kind of hard injury.

Su Jinyao is also afraid that with Mingluo by her side, sooner or later she will cause trouble, but she will be tired and hurt herself. It's better to send her back now, so that she can find the next suitable master.

Mingluo was indeed reluctant in his heart. Let's not talk about whether Su Jinyao is easy to serve, at least in the past two days with her, the work has been quite easy.

Even on the first day, several of them were rewarded, which shows that this master is also generous.

Although they were all sold into slavery since childhood, none of them were really willing to be slaves for the rest of their lives. They all want to save more money, and when they are old, the master will let them out of the house, and they can live the rest of their lives with peace of mind. So when you meet a generous master, the rest of your life will be settled.

But now that Su Jinyao let her go, it seems that she can't stay. However, Su Jinyao was able not to sue Mama, which also made Mingluo breathe a sigh of relief.

You must know that all the maids who are sent back by the master and don't want them will be punished if they are not trained well in the eyes of the grandmother. Some may be sent directly to the Huanyi Workshop or the Rough Labor Workshop, and that day will be sad.

Mingluo was thinking about it, and Mingjuan came in with the other four girls.

Su Jinyao glanced at it and sighed softly. They didn't ask their names when they came, and now someone is leaving without having to know their names.

It's not a pity, it's just that I feel that people are coming too quickly.

Obviously, Mingjuan and these four girls said what Su Jinyao meant. Therefore, a girl walked directly to Mingluo after entering the door, and pulled her sleeve, it seemed that the two of them were very good.

Su Jinyao didn't show any displeasure, just lightly swept over the faces of the rest of the people and asked; "Is anyone else willing to follow Mingluo back?"

Another girl hesitated, looked up at Mingluo, then at Mingjuan, and finally walked towards Mingluo with her mouth pursed.

After that, no one moved anymore. The two left stood beside Mingjuan, while Mingluo and the other three stood on the other side.

A rough maid

Su Jinyao's gaze swept slightly, and there was no expression of displeasure. This also made Mingluo and the two maids standing next to her breathe a sigh of relief.

Su Jinyao pointed to the silver on the table again, and said, "The three of you also followed me for two days, and there is no merit and hard work, I will not treat you badly." This silver is a parting gift for you, so take it. ”

After speaking, Su Jinyao signaled and asked Mingjuan to distribute the silver to the three of them.

Mingjuan immediately walked over and gave the silver to Mingluo and the other two girls. Then he looked back at Su Jinyao.

Su Jinyao nodded and said, "You can personally send them back to Mama's." Just do what I said before. ”
