Chapter 11: About the Nine Children (2)

Biyi smiled, but said in her heart, this Jiu'er is still as stupid as before, it's okay, so that he can just complete the task given to him by the eldest lady, thinking of this, he can't help but smile deeper, "Good Jiu'er, I'm a slave, where is there anything to find the third miss, I'm here this time, I'm here to find you." ”

Jiu'er didn't know why, and looked at her blankly with open eyes.

Biyi was disdainful in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face, and took out the hairpin in her hand and stuffed it to Jiu'er, "This is the eldest lady's reward for you, take it quickly." ”

Jiu'er looked at the hairpin in her hand, and a greedy light appeared in her eyes, but she still refused, "How can you accept this, it's too precious." ”

Biyi didn't let go of the greed that flashed in Jiu'er's eyes, smiled in her heart, and still stuffed the hairpin into Jiu'er's arms again, "The eldest lady can afford to reward you, what else do you refuse?" ”

Jiu'er couldn't put it down, touching the hairpin, looking very happy.

Biyi blinked, "Jiu'er, this hairpin is made of red gold, and the pearls inlaid on it are priceless, the eldest lady appreciates you like this, you have to do something to share the worries of the eldest lady." ”

Jiu'er nodded, Biyi whispered in her ear, Jiu'er was immediately frightened into a cold sweat after hearing this, "Sister Biyi, I don't dare to do this, besides, I'm a rough girl, where can I get into Miss's house." ”

Bi Yi knew that she had agreed, so she was only happy in her heart, and said: "You don't have to be today, you have to prepare first, and then I will support everyone, and then you can go in?" ”

Jiu'er was still hesitating, Biyi took her hand, "Good Jiu'er, the third lady is also a concubine if she is favored by the old lady, the eldest lady is a serious young lady, and the eldest lady's uncle is the general of Zhenguo, which is more important, you can tell which is more important, besides, isn't it just that we are slaves and maids to be able to be with this good master, if the third young lady values you, why bother you to do such rough work here." ”

As he spoke, he picked up Jiu'er's hand and rubbed it carefully, "Poor Jiu'er, how did these little hands become like this." ”

Jiu'er's eyes gradually turned red, Xu remembered the suffering he had suffered before, he and Biyi were originally fellow villagers, and they were sold to the prime minister's mansion together, and they were sent to the yard of the third lady to do the work of sprinkling and sweeping, but Biyi was sent to the eldest lady to be a personal girl, and the clothes she wore were several times stronger than herself.

"Good! Jiu'er listened to Sister Biyi's orders. ”

Biyi laughed, "That's right, the eldest lady said, as soon as this matter is done, I will transfer you to Fangfei Garden, and then our sisters can be together again." ”

Jiu'er nodded, Bi Yi looked at her and said with satisfaction: "You go in quickly, I'll come back to you in a few days." ”

After speaking, Biyi left in a hurry, Jiu'er stood in place, looking at Biyi's distant back, how could there be excitement in the original Mu Ne's eyes, and slowly took out the hairpin that Biyi gave herself just now from the sleeve, and a smile that did not match her age appeared on Jiu'er's simple face.

Xia Mengning looked at it, although she couldn't hear what the two said, but it was definitely not a good thing, this Xia Mengxi couldn't help but want to stir up trouble when she was grounded, how could she be so stupid in her previous life, she couldn't see her hypocrisy, and she lost in the hands of such a clumsy person.

was in a daze, and a childish and cool voice came from outside, "The third lady is asleep, Jiu'er has something to report." ”

A trace of surprise flashed on Xia Mengning's face, it was Jiu'er, why did she want to see herself. Even though he thought so, he said, "Come in." ”

The door curtain was lifted, and a sound of soft footsteps came in, and Jiu'er, who was wearing a maid's clothes, walked in and knelt on the ground, "I've seen the third miss." ”

Xia Mengning didn't speak, just leisurely drank the tea in her hand, and after a while, she put down the teacup and said, "Get up." "Miss Xie San." Jiu'er stood up calmly, Xia Mengning raised her eyes to look at her, only to see that she was combing her hair in an ordinary style, but she did not comb her hair in a bun, only a long braid with a thick wrist hanging on the back of her head, and her small round face looked cute and playful, which was really refreshing and pretty.

I hadn't noticed her beauty before, and when I thought of this, I asked; "You're a rough maid in the courtyard, what's the matter with me?"

Jiu'er didn't have an unhappy look on her face, as if she didn't have any opinion on Xia Mengning's special emphasis that she was a rough maid, but just lowered her head and said; "Third Miss, the slave maid was resting in the courtyard just now, and Sister Biyi, who was next to the eldest lady, came to look for the slave and maid, and gave the slave and maid this, saying that the eldest lady rewarded the slave maid."

Xia Mengning was slightly surprised, she was determined to find an opportunity to send her out when she saw Biyi come to talk to her, but she didn't expect her to say it herself, took the hairpin handed over by Jiu'er, Xia Mengning looked at it and put it on the table and said; "Then you can take it, the big sister rewarded you, but it is a supreme honor."

Here, Jiu'er knelt down with a plop, "Ask the third lady to save the slave." ”

Xia Mengning squinted his eyes and asked; "What do you mean by that?"

"The third lady doesn't know, the slave maid and Biyi are fellow villagers, that year the hometown sent a big flood, our two families fled to the capital together, the parents did not have the money to support so many children, so they sold me into the prime minister's mansion as a maid, Biyi used to treat the slave maid very well, but since the eldest lady was a personal maid, but the eyes were above the top and no longer refused to talk to the slave, that year the slave's father was seriously ill, the slave went to Fangfeiyuan to borrow some silver to find a doctor for her father, but she refused, since then the slave and the maid knew that the world was hot and cold, after the death of the father, The slave maid never said a word to Biyi again, today she came to find the slave maid again, she must not have any good intentions, the slave maid has no one to help, she can only come to ask the third lady for help, the slave maid has an old mother and a young brother at home, the slave maid does not want to die. ”

Xia Mengning listened to what she said, she only felt some resonance in her heart, being betrayed and framed by the people she used to get along with day and night was really distressing, didn't she also believe in people in her previous life, thinking of this, Xia Mengning stagnated slightly, and said, "Get up and talk." ”

Jiu'er wiped her tears and stood up, Xia Mengning asked, "How do you say that she is trying to kill you?" ”

"Back to the third miss's words, Biyi just said to the slave maid to let the slave maid monitor the third lady's every move, and also said that in a few days she will open up everyone in the bamboo branch garden, and let the slave maid enter your house and get a piece of your personal belongings."

Xia Mengning sneered, sure enough, how could this daughter's personal belongings be given to others casually, Xia Mengxi did this, obviously wanted to harm himself and lose his reputation, and he was really a ruthless person.

Thinking of this, Xia Mengning asked again: "Since you know these things she wants you to do, why do you want to say that Biyi wants to kill you?" ”

Jiu'er raised his head and said, "Biyi is uneasy and kind, even if she does this, she will not let the slave and maid live, she will definitely kill people and kill people, and this hairpin,"

Saying that, Jiu'er picked up the hairpin and handed it to Xia Mengning again, "Third Miss, please look, this hairpin is the eldest lady's favorite hairpin, in this hairpin, there is also a 'stream' word engraved, if the slave maid accepts the hairpin, after the matter is completed, the eldest lady will definitely say that the slave stole her hairpin in order to seal the slave maid's mouth, how can such valuable things be easily rewarded, when the slave and maid are speechless, won't they be killed?" ”

Xia Mengning looked at Jiu'er standing in front of her with appreciation, although this girl is a rough maid, her mind is very mature, she knows how to see the subtleties, she left her back hand, thought about it and said, "Then you don't accept it, why do you want to come to me after accepting it?" ”

Jiu'er knelt down again, "The third miss is a smart person, now that the eldest lady is grounded, the fourth miss and the fifth miss are not afraid, the third miss yesterday's incident has already spread all over the house, and the slave knows that the third miss will not be the kind of person who is willing to be slaughtered, and neither is the slave and the maid, so he specially accepted this thing and showed loyalty to the third miss." ”

Xia Mengning smiled unconsciously after hearing this, took a sip of the tea on the table, "What you said is good, but I am not the only one to go, if I refuse your request, what should you do?" ”

Jiu'er shook her head, and the corners of her mouth covered a smile, "The third lady will definitely not, the eldest lady is still shallow-minded, and she doesn't know how to keep Taoguang in obscurity, if it doesn't happen this time, there will inevitably be a next time, although it is not to be afraid, but the third miss has thought of the power of the mother's family behind the eldest lady, the eldest lady's uncle is the general of the Zhenguo, and even the prime minister does not dare to offend easily, if you want to keep your body safe, you must start first, although the slave is stupid, but she is not the kind of person who does not know right and wrong, and begs the third lady to take in the slave and maid." ”

Xia Mengning looked at Jiu'er who was speaking, only to feel that there was something unusual in those seemingly innocent eyes, and asked, "You seem to hate the eldest lady very much?" ”

Jiu'er didn't speak, just kept her head down in silence, and only spoke after a long time, "When the slave maid first entered the mansion, the eldest lady summoned the slave maid to her house to serve, and at that time, the eldest young master had not yet gone to the Far South, and the eldest lady tricked the slave and maid into drinking a bowl of ginseng soup and sent the slave maid to the eldest young master's house...... Afterwards, he threatened the slave and maid not to speak out, saying that if the slave and maid said it, they would kill the slave's mother and younger brother. ”

"What?" Xia Mengning's eyes widened, this Xia Mengxi is also everyone's girlfriend, and she actually did such a dirty thing.

Jiu'er over there shed tears, "The third lady may have forgotten, when the slave came back, you also asked the slave and the maid why her face was not good, afraid that the slave and the maid were sick, so you gave the slave and the maid silver and let the slave and maid rest for a few days, the third miss, the slave and the maid remember your great kindness, but the slave and the maid are soft-spoken, and it is difficult to protect themselves in this prime minister's mansion, how can they get revenge, but although the slave and the maid are poor, they are not bullied, and the eldest lady and the eldest young master join forces to frame the slave and the maid, and naturally Biyi is indispensable." ”

Xia Mengning was a little moved, looking at Jiu'er kneeling in front of her, she couldn't help but reach out and pull her up, her unintentional move actually stopped a disaster for herself, Xia Mengning looked at her and said: "Jiu'er, since you have decided to follow me, you must listen to me all, don't ignore my plan for revenge, you think clearly, if you want, follow me, if you don't want to, I can also give you a sum of money to let you go out of the house." ”

Jiu'er hurriedly knelt down, "Thank you, Miss San, the slave is willing to follow Miss San to the soup and fire, and she will never give up." ”
