Text Chapter 209 The New Maid
Hearing the names of these two maids so interesting, it didn't look like they were using their own names at all, Ding Yezi asked curiously, "You two were originally called by this name?" ”
Xiao Tao's temperament is more jumpy, and she took the lead in grabbing the words again: "Back to the young lady, the slave maid was not called Xiao Tao before, but before coming, the young master said that it was not convenient to use the previous name, so he helped the slave and maid change their names." ”
Ding Yezi nodded slightly, it turned out that this was the case. However, the two names taken by Hao Ling are quite vivid, and they are easy to remember.
The east courtyard is very large, and there are a lot of empty rooms in the first courtyard where they live, so there is naturally no need to arrange things in accommodation and life, just let Dong'er take them over.
Under Ding Yezi's instructions, Xiao Tao and Xiao Liu lived next door to Dong'er and Xiao Yu, and they could be regarded as neighbors.
Before entering Hao's mansion, Hao Ling had solemnly instructed these two maids to come over, saying that the two of them were the maids he had newly bought, not to mention that they were from his Zhuangzi, Xiao Tao and Xiao Liu knew each other, and they also took Hao Ling's words to heart.
For these two maids who have recently joined the East Courtyard, Dong'er and Xiaoyu expressed great kindness, and also intimately told them many things that should be paid attention to, although before entering Hao's Mansion, Anxin had already told Xiaotao Xiaoliu everything that should be said. Regarding the identities of Dong'er and Xiaoyu, Anxin has naturally told Xiaotao Xiaoliu that they are good on the surface, and they don't believe it too much in their hearts. Therefore, on the scene, these four people seem to have a very good relationship.
With the addition of Xiao Tao Xiaoliu, Dong'er and Xiaoyu's workload is much less, and they have more time to rest, which can be regarded as their unexpected joy.
As for whether Xiao Tao Xiaoliu will divide their status in the eyes of the master, Dong'er and Xiaoyu have never considered this, as subordinates, how can they be qualified to consider such a problem? Just do your job.
Seeing that there is still half a month to go before the New Year, Ding Page pondered, if he didn't go back to Ding's house now, he was afraid that he would only have less and less time in the future. Taking advantage of Hao Ling's return in the evening, Ding Yezi told Hao Ling what he meant, hoping that if Hao Ling was free at noon tomorrow, he could go to Ding's house for lunch. Anyway, at the end of the year, the shop was busy, and it would be impossible for Hao Ling to make a special day to come out.
It's rare for Ding Yezi to go back to his parents' house to see, and now it's just for him to go over for lunch, how can Hao Ling not agree? I was busy agreeing.
That night, Ding Yezi thought that he would go back to his parents' house tomorrow, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep. Just watching Hao Ling fall into a deep sleep soon after being tired, she didn't dare to move, just staring at the top of the tent in the dark.
It's a pity that no matter how you look at it, you can't see a flower.
Early the next morning, Hao Ling got up early and went to the shop, because of the special situation now, Ding Page no longer needed to get up early to serve Hao Ling, so he buried himself in the quilt for a while with peace of mind, until the time came when she had to go to the old lady to say goodbye, she got up under Xiao Tao's tireless harassment.
I don't know if Xiao Tao is a tendon, but she chattered on the side of her bed for a quarter of an hour, and only the young lady should get up these seven words, which have been repeated, and not a single word has appeared.
After getting dressed, Ding Page sat down lazily in front of the dressing table, Dong'er helped her comb her hair, and looked obliquely at Xiao Tao standing on the side from the mirror, and asked with a light smile: "Xiao Tao, do you want to drink some water?" It's time to be thirsty, right? ”
Dong'er burst out laughing, but Xiao Tao still looked out of the situation, blinking her big eyes, shaking her head and laughing happily: "Thank you for your concern, Xiao Tao is not thirsty." ”
Hearing that Xiao Tao didn't understand what she meant, Ding Page couldn't help laughing.
Xiao Tao jumped out again, saw Ding Page and Dong'er laughing, and knew that something must have happened, scratched the back of her head suspiciously, and asked puzzledly: "Young lady, did Xiao Tao say something wrong?" ”
Ding Page waved his hand, "No, what you said is very good." ”
Dong'er couldn't help laughing, and skillfully helped Ding Page pull a bun and insert a golden hairpin.
Ding Page looked in the mirror and stood up satisfied.
I have to say that among the few maids around her, only Dong'er is the most skillful in pulling her hair bun, and she is also the most beautiful one, and she has a high level of understanding, and she can always come up with a new hair bun hairstyle for her, and she also knows that she likes simplicity, so the jewelry inserted in her hair is also simple.
Xiao Tao looked at Ding Page's bun with envy, and said to Dong'er admiringly: "Sister Dong'er, your craftsmanship is really good." ”
Dong'er smiled modestly, "It's just a heart, if you like it too, I will teach you in the future." ”
It's just this simple sentence, but Ding Page remembered it in his heart. Obviously, Dong'er and Xiaoyu are not stupid, it should be seen that she trusts Xiao Tao Xiaoliu no less than the two of them who have been serving her, right? And from the perspective of common sense, how could such a thing happen? It can only be said that Ding Yezi has always been wary of them.
Ding Yezi doesn't matter, anyway, if Dong'er and Xiaoyu really have no selfish intentions, it won't have any special impact on them.
Hearing Dong'er say that she wanted to teach her, Xiao Tao clapped her hands happily and said, "Then Xiao Tao thank Sister Dong'er first." ”
Dong'er smiled, "We are all serving by the young lady's side, and we are all for the good of the young lady, you don't need to say thank you to me, if your craftsmanship is better than mine in the future, then you will do more work than me." I'm free, and I'm the one I should be grateful for. ”
Ding Page said with a smile: "Okay, you two girls don't be poor, let me learn how to comb my hair well, and when Xiao Tao's skills are good, you two will change them, no one wants to be lazy." ”
The polite compliments between Xiao Tao and Dong'er were successfully stopped by Ding Page.
Hearing her say this, Dong'er and Xiao Tao turned to face her in unison, and said with a smile almost in unison: "What the young lady said is that the slave maid must study hard in the future and clean up our young lady beautifully." ”
Xiao Tao smiled and added, "After the custodian walked to the street, among the many young ladies in the mansion, only our young ladies are the most beautiful." ”
Ding Yezi glanced at her with a smile, and said angrily: "Xiao Tao, I see, you are the most poor in the entire East Courtyard, come, see that you are so energetic, serve me breakfast." ”
Xiao Tao's face collapsed deliberately, and she held her mouth and said, "Young lady, you are partial, Ming Mingdong'er's sister is also standing here, why do you want to do things for someone else?" ”
Having said that, Xiao Tao's people had already obediently moved to Ding Page's side and cleverly helped her set up the dishes.
Ding Yezi took a sip of porridge, ate a piece of fish, and said with a smile: "What? You don't seem to want to? In that case, then you still don't learn to comb your hair, I'll let Xiaoyanagi learn, I think Xiaoyanagi's temperament is much calmer than Xiaopeach, and you will definitely be able to learn better. Gee...... You will take over the task of replacing Koyanagi for me in the future, and sew clothes for me. ”
Xiao Tao's face suddenly collapsed even more, tears almost popped out of her eyes, and she said bitterly: "Young lady, isn't it good for the slave to obediently learn from Sister Dong'er?" The young lady knows best that the slave is afraid of taking needles and threads, so don't let the slave and maid sew clothes, okay? ”
Listening to Xiao Tao's soft and glutinous voice, Ding Yezi couldn't help laughing after all, and nodded in response: "Okay, well, then you have to learn from Dong'er in the future." ”
Hearing Ding Page's words of agreement, Xiao Tao stood up straight with joy, respectfully squatted down to Ding Page, and promised again and again: "Young lady, rest assured, Xiao Tao will study hard and will not let the young lady down." ”
Ding Page shook his head lightly in amusement, and felt more and more that Xiao Tao was really an interesting child. To be honest, the entire Hao Mansion can say a few jokes to the master as freely and cheerfully as Xiao Tao, except for her, An Xin, who has always been by Hao Ling's side.
Ding Yezi's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, it is said that An Xin and Xiao Tao have also reached the age when they should marry, Xiao Tao is her personal maid, and An Xin is Hao Ling's close follower, why not let them achieve good things?
Of course, this matter is just a matter of thinking about it, and whether it can be implemented or not depends on what Anxin and Xiao Tao mean. After all, although she likes to see that all lovers in the world are married, she doesn't want to be a person who messes with mandarin duck scores. If Anxin and Xiao Tao are destined, they will naturally be together.
When Xiao Tao was talking to Ding Page, Dong'er had been standing quietly aside, looking at everything in front of her indifferently, as if she didn't care at all.
After breakfast, Ding Page took Xiao Tao to the old lady's place, ready to go to the old lady to say goodbye. This is not good in large households, no matter what kind of day, you can't sleep lazy, asking for good morning to the elders is a daily routine, once you are a little lazy, the elders will think that you are a rude person.
Fortunately, Ding Page is also used to getting up early, but he doesn't feel like it. In addition, although there is no air conditioning now, the earth dragon is also burning, and there are charcoal basins, and the temperature in the house is high, and people can easily get up.
As soon as Ding Page and Xiao Tao left, Dong'er went back to the room.
Xiaoyu has always been a soft person, and when she saw Dong'er enter the house, she called timidly: "Dong'er......"
Dong'er frowned, looked at her unpleasantly, frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Xiaoyu beckoned to Dong'er and motioned for her to come and talk to her.
Dong'er hesitated for a moment, but walked over.
Xiao Yu leaned into Dong'er's ear and whispered, "Dong'er, do you think that the young lady has neglected us a lot recently?" ”
