In the evening, Yi'er didn't go back to Qiuxia Pavilion until she served the old lady to go to bed and rest, and before she had time to go to the clean room to wash, Qingli came in and whispered: "Miss, Ding'er is outside, I want to come in and say hello to Miss." ”

Ding'er is one of the eight rough maids in Qiuxia Pavilion, and the relationship with Pei Lan was very good before, after Pei Lan's death, Yi'er also took extra care of these rough maids, food, clothing, housing and transportation, and ordinary work have been personally asked, it is the maid and grandmother who is on an errand in Qiuxia Pavilion, compared to other places in the house, not only the work is much lighter, but the treatment conditions are also much better.

Ding'er is a rough little maid, and she usually can't enter Yi'er's main house without permission, but she remembered to ask Yi'er for peace at such a late hour, and this invitation is naturally a disguise, thinking that something is true.

Ding'er hung his head and followed Qingli in, kowtowing in front of Yi'er, Yi'er said, "Okay, there are just a few of us in this house, don't worship here." You've come to me so late, but what's the matter? ”

Ding'er didn't get up, so she knelt on the ground and said, "Slave begs Miss, save Sister Caixia!" ”

Yi'er said: "Who is Caixia?" ”

Ding'er said: "Sister Caixia is the eldest girl waiting in Linglong Courtyard, and the slave maid had to be taken care of by Sister Caixia when she was young. ”

"Linglong Temple?" Yi'er frowned, "That's the courtyard of the fifth uncle and five aunts." What's going on? ”

Ding'er gritted her teeth, looked a little embarrassed, looked up at Yi'er several times, and finally whispered: "She, Sister Caixia, she has a body." ”

Yi'er was stunned and stood up from the chair.

Lu Fu on the side couldn't help but say angrily: "Ding'er, are you confused? Miss is still a girl in the boudoir, where did you hear that these filthy things want to dirty Miss's ears, is it true that Miss is benevolent, and you are more and more ignorant of the importance and humility? ”

Ding'er was startled, prostrate on the ground, trembling, and didn't dare to reply.

Yi'er sighed and said, "What the hell is going on, you get up and talk slowly." ”

It turned out that Caixia and Ding'er were the same as the children of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, and Ding'er's parents had already fallen ill, Caixia took pity on her life, and took care of her within the scope of her ability on weekdays, Ding'er was also grateful, although the two were not biological sisters, the relationship was very good.

Later, Ding'er was assigned to Ripple Courtyard, and was sent into Qiuxia Pavilion by the Li family to wait, and Caixia went to Linglong Courtyard, she was sensible and diligent, and she was born well, and within a few years, she was promoted from a little girl to a third-class girl. When the fifth lady He entered the door, although she was not He's dowry girl, she was also very liked by He's, and she was the only one around He's side who could speak to the Hou family.

Originally, Caixia was very content on such a day, but who would have thought that on a rainy night half a year ago, the fifth old man Du Ziping found an opportunity and forcibly asked for her body. Caixia was completely at a loss, neither daring to speak out, nor being able to resist, so she could only accept it. Since then, her whole person has become absent-minded and unavoidable.

At that time, it was He who had just been diagnosed as pregnant, from the old lady to the miscellaneous servants, all of whom had a twelve-point spirit, lest there be any omission, and Caixia was waiting beside He's side, but it was in such a state, after several mistakes in a row, He directly lowered the person to wait, kicked out of the main room, and put him in the bathroom to go on an errand.

Originally, this was just that, but the fifth old man Du Ziping was a shameless person, he used to have a scruple or two when Caixia was waiting by He's side, this person was sent out, he became more and more unscrupulous, and he pestered Caixia again and again, Caixia was helpless and miserable,

Just a few days ago, Caixia found Ding'er, her Kwai Shui hadn't come for two months, she knew in her heart, she was afraid that she had a body, she had waited for He's, knew that He's was jealous, and now He's was about to give birth again, where did she dare to say that she knew with He's? In desperation, she had the idea of death, and asked Ding'er to explain some things, Ding'er saw that her situation was not right, and she only told these things after questioning. Ding'er is a rough maid, and where does she have any ideas and abilities, so she came to Yi'er.

Without waiting for Yi'er to speak, Qing Li reprimanded: "Ding'er, you are really confused, no matter what, the fifth master is also the elder of the young lady, the matter in the fifth master's room, how do you ask the young lady to call the shots for her?" ”

Ding'er was prostrate on the ground, her body trembling, and she didn't dare to raise her head.

Yi'er saw that Qingli and Lufu were a little annoyed, and couldn't help glaring at them, and said, "You asked me to save Caixia, do you want me to save her?" ”

Ding'er said: "Sister Caixia said, when this matter spreads, the fifth lady will never tolerate her, and even if she can keep this child, she will just become the plaything of the fifth master, she doesn't want this, so she won't want this child, so she just wants to beg Miss, can you secretly invite a medicine woman for her from the outside?" ”

Yi'er secretly thought that Caixia was a girl who thought about it thoroughly, and wanted to care about it, but she couldn't bear it in her heart, so she couldn't help but sigh softly, and said: "You go back and ask Caixia well, this is not a child's play, if she really thinks about it, you can come back to me." I can't help her with anything else, and it won't take much trouble to find a medicine woman. ”

Ding'er was overjoyed, and knocked his head a few times before retreating.

Yi'er saw that Qingli Lufu had a disapproving look on her face, so she didn't wait for the two to speak, so she said: "I'm also tired, Qingli is waiting for me to freshen up, Lufu is going to call for shock, she has good skills in combing her hair, combing her hair well before going to bed, invigorating blood and pulse, and helping sleep, this is still what Qingli said." ”

Lu Fu had to say more, Qing Li glanced at her, and Lu Fu bowed down and gave a salute, and said yes, and went down to be shocked.

Qing Li saw that Yi'er had made up her mind, and although she sighed in her heart that Yi'er's heart was too kind, she had nothing to do, so she had to say: "In the past, it was the slave maid and Lan Qiao who combed the young lady's hair, but now that the shock is coming, the young lady will dislike the slave and the maid for being clumsy." ”

Yi'er Wan'er glanced at Qingli and said, "I haven't seen you say these witticisms on weekdays." I know you have something to say, you are no more affectionate than others, and there are no outsiders here, so you can say it if you want to. ”

Qing Li said: "The slave maid thinks that the matter in the fifth master's room, as a junior, is it a little inappropriate for the young lady to intervene in it?" ”

Yi'er said: "I also know that I shouldn't ask about this matter, but Qingli, do you remember the first night we went to the White Horse Temple, I gave a reward to the people who stayed on duty?" ”

Qing Li nodded and said, "The slave remembers that at that time, Pei Lan was red at those rewards, and she was still clamoring to exchange them with Ding'er." ”

Yi'er said: "Pei Lan has always been the best friend of Ding'er in the yard. I also blame my master, I don't take enough care of them, and now Pei Lan is going to save me, and Ding'er is begging in front of me for the first time, Qingli, you say, how can I refuse her ruthlessly? ”

Qing Li said: "Miss is good at everything, but she is too soft." In fact, according to the slave maid, we are slaves and maids, and it is a matter of course for the master to receive it, Peilan's death is also her gratitude for the kindness of Miss to her on weekdays, so she spares her own life to protect the Miss's thoughtfulness, this is her own choice, where can she blame the Miss? Why does the young lady keep thinking about these things? ”

Yi'er shook her head and said, "Forget it, I've already decided on this matter, so don't say more." You do things steadily, go and see that Caixia when you come down, if she really needs it, help her if you can, it can be regarded as me helping Ding'er's girl to complete their sisterhood. ”

But I never thought that Qingli had received Yi'er's words here, and before he had time to deal with Chunrong's affairs, there was a big incident in the Ripple Courtyard.

In the afternoon of the second day, Yi'er had the habit of taking a nap, but before she went to bed, Yinlian ran in in a little panic and reported that Xiao Du Yu broke his head.

Yi'er was startled at the time, got up from the chair and rushed out, but one of them was not on a stable footing, and almost fell to the ground, fortunately, Yingu, who was waiting on the side, was quick and helped Yi'er, but Yi'er was pale with a white face, pushed away Yingu's hand, and trotted all the way out of Qiuxia Pavilion and went to Ripple Courtyard.

When Yi'er rushed into the Ripple Courtyard, Du Yu's nurse Bian Mama and the two maids who were waiting close to her, Ju Xiang and Xiang'er, all knelt in the courtyard, their faces were pale, and Suo Suo trembled with fright. Yi'er didn't have time to pay attention to them, and rushed directly into the house.

The doctor came quickly, Yi'er had already bandaged Du Yu when he arrived, Li Shi was nervous, held him in his arms, and successively followed his back to comfort him, and Zhihua took the medicine bowl and was about to feed him medicine, but little Du Yu nested in Li's arms, with tears in the corners of his eyes, sobbing gently, don't start, just don't drink the decoction handed over by Zhihua, at this time, when he saw Yi'er come in, he immediately cried louder, and opened his arms, and was about to throw himself into Yi'er's arms.

Li couldn't help but say angrily: "You stinky boy, seeing your sister coming, you're even more energetic, aren't you?" ”

Yi'er saw that Du Yu was fine, first breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and hugged him, and saw that the white sand towel used to bandage his head was dyed red, and his heart hurt, so he patted him on the back and said, "Xiaoyu, don't cry, tell my sister first, does it still hurt?" ”

Du Yu stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, and said, "It hurts, Xiao Yu hurts, my sister blows, blows." ”

Yi'er said softly: "Xiao Yu is a man, you have to be brave, my sister will blow it to you, but you also have to promise my sister, is it okay to take medicine obediently?" ”

"Bitter."

"My sister knows that it is bitter, but only by taking medicine will Xiao Yu's injury be healed, and it won't hurt."

Du Yu has been close to Yi'er since he was a child, and many times only Yi'er's words work with him, and the people in the courtyard have long been surprised by these things, Yi'er coaxed softly for a long time, Du Yu opened his mouth and took the medicine, the medicine was extremely bitter, his face was wrinkled into a bun, but he didn't make a sound, and drank the medicine in the bowl in one breath with the medicine bowl.

Yi'er saw that he finished drinking, and hurriedly twisted a candied fruit and put it in his mouth.
