212 Handmaiden
After returning from Lingqing Mountain, Hua Yue accompanied Ruyi in the small mountain village for nearly ten days, although Su's mother's illness was alleviated, she still did not escape the fate of death.
A month later, Su's mother died of illness.
After Ruyi finished the funeral for Su's mother, there was nowhere to go, and in the end, a gorgeous carriage stopped in front of the bamboo gate of the Su family.
Ruyi was packing up Su Mu's old things in the house, and then Zijin walked in with someone.
Ruyi looked at Zijin, a little bit didn't understand why she came here, it stands to reason that Hua Yue has already treated Su's mother, and she has also tried her best to prolong Su's mother's life, which is already benevolent and righteous, so why are they coming this time......
"Ruyi girl, my master asked me to pick you up and take you back to the villa." Zijin's voice is very good, and his attitude is very friendly, not like that Li'er.
"Hua Yue asked you to pick me up? Why? Ruyi still hasn't been stunned, speaking of which, she and Hua Yue have also been separated for a while, and she has also returned to her normal life, after all, people like Hua Yue are not easy to touch as a country girl.
"This master didn't say that my task was only to take the girl back."
Mother Su went, Ruyi had nowhere to go, and the Red Sleeve Villa was also a good place to go, besides, she still thought a little about the warm and considerate Huayue in her heart.
After Ruyi sorted out Su's mother's relics, he went to Su's mother's grave, chattered a few words, and then got into the carriage with Zijin and went to the Red Sleeve Villa.
Along the way, Zijin was very silent and didn't speak, and Ruyi had to keep his mouth shut obediently.
The carriage was fast, and in half an hour, they arrived at the door of the Red Sleeve Villa.
This is the second time Ruyi has come to the Red Sleeve Villa, last time it was to ask for medicine for Su's mother, but this time it was to defect.
Zijin entered the door with Ruyi, and Li'er seemed to be waiting in the courtyard early, with several maidservants holding trays standing behind her.
"Li'er, I brought Miss Ruyi, and I'll leave it to you next."
As if handing over a task, Ruyi stared at her big eyes, and before she could come to her senses, Zijin had already walked away without looking back, leaving only Ruyi and Li'er to start staring at each other.
Li'er clasped her hands to her chest, looked Ruyi up and down with her eyes, and then her tone was as arrogant as in front of the villa that day: "Our villa has never raised idlers, since my master kindly took you in, then you have to do something for the villa." ”
Wait, what's going on?
Ruyi didn't understand the situation a little: "Zijin brought me here, didn't he want to see Huayue?" ”
Li'er raised her brows, looked angry, and scolded: "What did you call the master just now?" The owner's name is also something you can call out at will?! ”
Li'er's majesty still suppressed Ruyi, and she felt a little wronged: "Obviously, it was Hua Yue himself who asked me to call him that." ”
"That was before, now you can't be like this anymore, you are just a servant girl in the villa, from now on, you must be like all of us, called master."
Ruyi only felt a little uncomfortable all over her body, did she come to the villa to let others train?
"What are you doing in a daze? Didn't you hear that? Li'er raised her voice.
Ruyi's five fingers under the sleeves gradually clenched, and he looked up at her a little unwillingly, and broke out in silence if he didn't perish in silence: "What qualifications do you have to discipline me like this?" Did I sign a deed of sale to sell to your villa? What about Zijin? What about Huayue? You can't talk to me, I'm looking for them! ”
This is the Red Sleeve Villa, where can a little girl go wild?
Li'er's eyes signaled, and the maidservant girl behind her stepped forward and easily restrained Ruyi who wanted to break into the hall.
"Let me go! Huayue! Ruyi didn't believe that Hua Yue would let Li'er treat herself like this, obviously when he was in Lingqing Mountain, he was so gentle, and he took her to the top of the mountain to see the pear blossoms all over the mountain, how come it was only a month's effort, and everything changed!
Li'er stared at her coldly, and said word by word: "How can the master be seen by you, since you have entered the door of the villa, you are the maid of the villa, you take her down to change her clothes, and teach her the basic matters of serving the master in the villa." ”
"Yes."
Ruyi was escorted to the backyard by them like this, and Ruyi felt like she had been sold into a den of thieves.
She also realized that this red-sleeved villa was not so easy to go out, and instead of tearing her face with them and not getting good fruit to eat, it was better to obey them first, but to avoid the pain of flesh and skin.
Ruyi changed into the same outfit as the maidservant, and listened to two or three maidservants take her around the Red Sleeve Villa, and also learned some basic etiquette.
The rules of this red-sleeved villa are really better than those of the palace, and sure enough, the big families are in trouble.
However, after walking around this circle, she probably knew where Hua Yue usually liked to stay the most, and if she found an opportunity in the future, she still wanted to meet him.
From the maidservant's mouth, she learned that Hua Yue has been very busy recently, and she has been in and out of the palace very frequently.
Ruyi works carefully, at first Li'er didn't worry about her, for fear that she would run away, so she always stared at her from time to time, and later, she found that she really calmed down and worked, so she let her go.
When Hua Yue returned home, it was already midnight, and Zijin brought the soup from the kitchen and put it on the table.
Hua Yue casually flipped through the medical book in her hand, and asked without raising her head: "Is Ruyi still used to staying in the villa these days?" ”
Zijin took the tray and lowered his head and replied: "Li'er has been teaching her closely, and Miss Ruyi is also smart, and she knows more or less about the villa." ”
Hua Yue's hand turned through the book, raised her eyes slightly, and there was a slight smile in her eyes: "Didn't she think about running away, or playing some trick to see me?" ”
"No, Miss Ruyi is very stable."
This was out of Hua Yue's surprise, if this matter had been left on Ling Jiantong's body before, he would have tried his best to get out of the gate of the villa, but he didn't expect Su Ruyi to become a lot more stable after the amnesia.
Zijin glanced at the meaningful smile on the corner of Hua Yue's lips, she glanced at the decoction on the table, and reminded softly: "Master, the medicine is about to cool." ”
Hua Yue came back to her senses, closed the medical book, and then walked to the table, picked up the decoction with one hand, and drank it all without frowning.
The sequelae left by the face swapping technique is that this life can only be accompanied by decoction, one bowl a day, and it cannot be delayed, otherwise the headache will be split, and it is simply worse than death.
Zijin took back the empty bowl and lowered his head to retreat into the room, but Hua Yue suddenly seemed to remember something and stopped Zijin.
"What I was told before, I can do it now."
Zijin nodded sideways: "Yes, master." ”
Hua Yue stood in front of the window, looking up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, her eyes, from now on, I will take good care of you and love you.
The news of Hua Yue's return to the villa reached Ruyi's ears, and she immediately put down the work in her hand and ran over to join the fun with the maids.
"Hey, what do you say? Chinese...... The host is back? Ruyi asked with a slight light in his eyes.
The maidservants looked at each other, nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that I came back in the middle of the night last night." ”
"Oh, then you're back this time, are you still leaving?"
"It seems that I can't leave for a while, but this time I entered the palace to exhaust the master, the prince is frail and sick, stubborn for many years, if it weren't for the master's medical skills hanging there, I'm afraid the prince would have returned to the west long ago."
"Shhhh
Ruyi doesn't care about this, the topic is a bit off-track.
"Do you know where the master will be on this day? Will you stay in the lodge? ”
"It stands to reason that every time the master comes out of the palace, he will go to the hot spring in the back mountain for a few hours before he can go back to the villa, hey, Ruyi, why are you asking this?"
Ruyi smiled and waved her hand hurriedly: "It's nothing, I just thought that if the master stayed in the villa, maybe I could see each other." ”
As soon as the maid heard Ruyi's words, her face immediately changed as if she was facing a great enemy, and the kind-hearted maidservant reminded her: "Ruyi, just talk about this between us, but don't talk nonsense outside, especially don't let the master and Miss Li'er know, otherwise it will ......."
If you see that the maidservants are all as pale as earth, they are curious for a moment: "Aren't we here to serve our master?" Why can't you even ask? ”
"No, the master is peerless, which woman doesn't want to know the master, so as to climb the high branch to be a phoenix, there was a maid named Tao Yao before, in order to be close to the master, it was really painstaking, but in the end let the master know, the master let the girl Li'er make her an adult, and put it in the courtyard for three days."
The maidservants were still trembling when they thought of the man.
After Ruyi heard this, she also became uneasy, Hua Yue's personality was perverse, how could outsiders guess her thoughts, she was not sure now that everything that happened in Lingqing Mountain was his momentary kindness or Ruyi's own delusion.
"The master is never close to women, don't look at the women in the Red Sleeve Villa, but the master except for the Li'er girl and Zijin girl who are close to him, other women won't even look at it, I really don't know how many beautiful dreams of the ladies have been broken."
The maidservants gossiped, but Ruyi took a broom and gradually walked away.
If according to what they said, she should keep a distance from Hua Yue, otherwise one day he will be unhappy and make himself a human being, wouldn't it be better to live than to die, but Ruyi's mind remembered more than once that the story told by Hua Yue on the top of Lingqing Mountain that day, the person who can tell such a beautiful and beautiful love doesn't look like a ruthless and unrighteous person.
Ruyi is a little distressed, should she go to the hot spring in the back mountain or not?
Is Hua Yue's true feelings for herself or false?
Ruyi lowered his head, thinking that his brain hurt, forget it, wait until noon, let's talk about it.
