Chapter 13: A Digged Pit

Qingqian squatted down, this Luo skirt was actually made of the same material as the fabric sent by Gu Qingyuan, it was all Yuhua brocade, she was slightly surprised, but she remembered that Qiu Feng's maid told her with a heartache that this brocade was a good material, and even the ink stained could be washed off immediately.

But it was a coincidence that she would have thought that such a thing would happen in the afternoon.

Gu Qinglian made it clear that she didn't want her to live a comfortable life, she didn't know what would happen to the concubine's birthday in a few days, according to this thing, she was all reminding herself to be prepared.

But looking at Gu Qinglian's weak appearance, Qing Qian had already guessed her thoughts, this girl was probably knocking her bamboo pole!

She thought about it, so it was better to follow Qinglian's meaning first, and see what kind of medicine was sold in her gourd.

"Speaking of which, it can be regarded as my lack of discipline of the maid," Qingqian said calmly, "They contradicted my cheeks and frowned, and I apologized on their behalf, as for the clothes, if my sister still wants to embarrass my maid, then I can help you wash it, and it can be regarded as a sister's reparation." ”

The maids around her were in an uproar, when did this eldest lady care so much about the maids in her yard, but in the past, you could often see the eldest lady beating and scolding the maids at every turn.

Gu Qinglian's eyes fluttered and said, "How can my sister let my sister go to wash clothes in person?" Although my sister's brand has been handed over to the old lady, it is better to grow up with my sister, but this dress, if I go back to the yard, my mother will definitely say about me. ”

She was like a little white flower, standing by the pool and looking pitiful, which made people somehow feel a trace of sympathy, but she did not hesitate to poke at the sore spot that her brand handed over to the old lady, which was really admirable.

Qingqian squinted his eyes and said, "If my sister doesn't dislike it, it's better for my sister to borrow you a set of clothes first." ”

Sure enough, I saw Gu Qinglian's eyes light up, and it seemed that she had guessed correctly, but Gu Qinglian still pretended to be reserved and said, "How can my sister dislike my sister?" It would be great if my sister was willing to borrow my sister! I heard that my sister has a set of green smoke and purple Xiuluo skirts, and my sister really wants to borrow it, but I wonder if my sister can borrow my sister to try it? ”

Peony's face changed and her mouth opened, the appetite of these two young ladies is really too big, right...... was about to speak, Qingqian pressed her arm, and then she endured it and whispered: "Miss, what the second lady wants to borrow is the clothes that Madame just prepared for you to attend the birthday of the noble concubine." ”

Is that so? How did she not know? Qing Qian smashed his mouth, it turned out that Gu Qinglian wanted the skirt, Qing Qian touched Peony's head and agreed, "Okay." ”

All right? The simple two people made everyone stunned, and Peony reacted and almost wanted to fall to the ground, her own young lady...... Agreed like that?

She tugged at her young lady's sleeve and looked at her desperately, but Qing Qian was unmoved, and squinted and smiled happily.

The maid next to her felt that the eldest lady had been locked up in Luomei Pavilion for a month, and it was estimated that everyone was crazy.

"Qinglian thanks my sister, but I'm afraid that even if my sister agrees, Mrs. won't agree," Gu Qinglian looked at her tangled, "My sister thought about it, if it really doesn't work, my sister still has a set of half-worn blue water trolling lotus skirts, it's not that she can't wear it, but I'm afraid that others will laugh at our Gu Mansion for treating our concubine badly." ”

Gu Qinglian thought more thoughtfully than her, and even put an end to Zhou's troubles, and if she agreed, it meant that the cause of Zhou's question was also on her, in other words, she volunteered to give it to Gu Qinglian.

What a Gu Qinglian! She didn't leak anything, I thought she could give up if she agreed to this matter, but she still wanted to go around the words and cut off her back hand, and her words and words were spoken, and it was impossible to take them back casually.

Can she still lend her skirt in this case?

Qing Qian snorted, naturally borrowed! Why not borrow? Since she wanted it so much, she might as well lend her clothes and put them on, she smiled slightly and said: "Sister, don't worry, this matter is originally on my sister, and my sister will definitely say what is going on on Madame's side, when the clothes are ready, I will ask the maid in the yard to send them to you." ”

The news that the eldest lady was going to lend the new skirt to the second lady generously spread in the Gu Mansion, making the whole mansion think that the eldest lady may not be sober recently.

For a while, the people from all sides and courtyards were overjoyed, the way of heaven is good reincarnation, and she was finally planted in the hands of the second lady. The people in these courtyards almost lifted the second lady as a hero who did the right thing for heaven.

Qing Qian didn't think anything of it, lowered his head and picked up the clothes and pulled his maid back to the yard first.

When they got to the courtyard, the two maids, Cardamom and Gardenia, knelt in front of her with a "plop".

"Miss forgive me, if it weren't for the slave and cardamom accidentally colliding with Sister Feng, otherwise it wouldn't have been like this, and the young lady who was harmed lost a new skirt." The two of them choked up with tears in their eyes.

Qing Qian turned over the soft collapse, these two maids haven't knelt enough, listening to the sound of kneeling on the ground, she felt some pain in her knees, she knelt down without saying anything.

Rubbing her head a little painfully, she said: "You guys go back to rest first, I can't blame you for this matter, Qinglian should have fallen in love with this skirt a long time ago, and I'm afraid this incident is not so coincidental." ”

She didn't believe that such a coincidental thing would happen, because the maids in her yard were not graded, and the things in the yard were done in turns, and the days of washing clothes were also very fixed, basically every other day from the beginning of the month.

And even she didn't know about this skirt, it was normal for Peony to know, and every four days, the grandmother of Qiongyuyuan would come here to send something or talk to Peony, but why did Gu Qinglian know?

On the way back, she had already asked Peony, and there were not many people in the house who knew about it, could it be that there were ghosts in her yard or her mother's yard?

She swept a few maids around her who had just come in, all of them were sent in directly, and the possibility of mixing in was very small, and the rough maids outside were almost just doing some chores, and it was impossible to know about it. But assuming that it was in her mother's yard, Gu Qinglian could remember all the names clearly, and it was estimated that she was someone close to the Zhou family, but if it was by Zhou's side, it would be impossible for the Zhou family not to find out.

She overturned her assumptions one after another, and shook her head tiredly, originally wanted to make the rules listed to these little maids clear this afternoon, but it was so busy that she had no time, and she almost forgot it.

Pinching the piece of paper, Cardamom glanced at it and said, "Is it the rules of this Luomei Pavilion in Miss's hand?" ”

Qingqian's eyes lit up and said, "Do you know words?" ”

Cardamom responded: "My father taught me a few words at home before, but it's just a few simple words, how can I get an axe here in Miss." ”

In ancient times, those who could know a few words were basically young ladies with status, and since cardamom knew a few words, then the birth would not be so bad.

She was a little curious, how could this girl become a maid under her son?

Cardamom lowered her eyebrows and smiled bitterly: "Miss, don't guess the identity of the slave maid, the slave maid is just from a small family, and the Xiangfu is incomparable, but in the end, the family road is broken, the whole family is fragmented, and my parents are long gone, my uncle dislikes me for eating food for nothing at home, so he directly sold me to his subordinates, but Miss rest assured, the slave and maid have long been accustomed to this kind of life, and they will not be idle." ”

She was afraid that Qing Qian would know that she didn't want her, so she quickly defended, and said with a smile: "I'm not worried that you are idle, since you know how to read, then I will be more relaxed in the future, just give you the written paper, and let you talk to these maids." ”

Indeed, the maids in the yard are really troublesome if they don't know how to read, if there is anything in the future to pass a note is extremely convenient, originally she also wanted to teach these maids to read and write, so it saves a lot of effort.

"The slave understands." Cardamom said happily, bowed with Gardenia and exited the courtyard.

She still likes these honest maids, but although these maids are all bought from the maid together, but the background is probably a world apart, she couldn't help poking the peony that made the tea and said: "Peony, did you also buy it from the lady?" ”

Peony carefully held the teacup and said, "Did Miss forget?" The slave maid has been the domestic slave of the Gu Mansion for generations, and before she met the young lady, the slave maid was just a maid in the kitchen who made a fire and cooked. ”

Seeing her serious answer, she asked lightly: "When I was sick before, the maids in the yard were almost gone, but why didn't you leave?" ”

A conscientious maid like her, she can live like a fish in water no matter where she goes.

Peony pinched the teapot and paused, "Did Miss really forget what happened at the beginning?" ”

Qingqian didn't open her mouth anymore, this story belonged to Gu Qingqian and Peony, she just asked casually, but she didn't expect that the things she pulled out were a little unexpected.

Okay, that's enough, although I can't see Gu Qingqian's memories before, but from the day she came, I can feel that Gu Qingqian is actually not very good to peony, but no matter where she is, this girl is angry for her, and her whole face is often as red as an apple.

"Miss, you seem to have changed a lot, but the slave thinks it's good."

She rubbed the little maid's head and said, "You have a rest after you finish here, and if you have something, you will leave it to the other rough maids." ”
