His Royal Highness King Yi's strength and domineering made many people unbearable.

He has the power of soldiers in his hands, and as soon as he returns, it is such a heavy, blood-stained road, from Zhengde Gate to the palace.

No one is a fool, there is no one in this capital who doesn't want him to come back, but he came back alive.

How many people began to have restless pillows in their dreams and couldn't sleep all night.

"Isn't there any news from Yuelin County yet?"

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, no one was found!"

"What does it mean that no one has been found? Can a big living person disappear out of thin air? ”

"His Royal Highness King Yi's people are also looking for her, she really doesn't know where to go......"

This she, naturally, is Zhu Xiao.

The prince and his group wanted to catch Zhu Xiao and threaten Xun Muyang, but Zhu Xiao ran away from home because he was angry, and he disappeared without knowing where he went?

And Xun Muyang's people are also looking for her, and the road from Yuelin County to the capital is overwhelming......

"Be sure to catch someone before the fifth child, remember to live!"

"Yes!"

It's just that the person everyone is looking for is working as a maid in a family in Chengpu County, who would have thought that a pampered girl, who was spoiled by His Royal Highness King Yi, who was short-tempered and almost didn't recognize his six relatives, would go to be a maid for others.

Chengpu County, Qinjia

Seeing that Chongyang is about to be chongyang, because the Qin family has an old lady, the old lady Qin is also successful in this life, born in a famous family, married to a husband who is also a famous bachelor in the dynasty, although now it is gone, she is also a high-ranking Mrs. Fate, when she accompanied the old lady back to Chengpu County, after the old lady went, she naturally wanted to return to the capital, meet her old sisters, and step into the prosperity of the capital again.

But she is old and her health is not very good, and her family is afraid that she will go to the capital on the way, so she will go accidentally, and she has always refused to go.

In the coming year, her sister's youngest son is going to get married, and it is her sister's 60th birthday, she is going to go no matter what, and she plans to wait for the Double Ninth Festival before leaving, but her health has not been good.

Zhu Xiao is still so busy every day, she has very little leisure time, she is a new little maid, and Ah Xiu has to work there wherever she has work, she and Ah Xiu two, Ah Xiu talks a lot, and likable, she talks little, but complements each other very much, Ah Xiu and she are often together, everyone says, there is Ah Xiao, there must be Ah Xiu.

It's a minibus, which is already a little guy next to the Ninth Young Master, who specializes in running errands for the Ninth Young Master to buy takeaways.

At first, the wife of the family was worried that the minibus would take the ninth young master, but later found that after the minibus went to serve, the ninth young master studied more and more, and the wife had already rewarded the minibus twice.

As the cousin of the minibus, Zhu Xiao also benefited in the kitchen, at least there was no longer any difference in food, and everyone was kind and polite to her.

"Ah Xiao, what kind of dishes are you going to cook to honor the old lady on the day of Chongyang?" Ah Xiu asked.

When Zhu Xiao heard this, he stopped picking vegetables and raised his eyes to look at Ah Xiu.

"Ah Xiao, are you cooking delicious?" Ah Xiu asked again.

Zhu Xiao's head.

She rarely cooks anymore.

"So have you figured out what to do? Ah Xiao, can I help you do a good job together, and when the time comes, will you give me a little bit of it? Axiu Baba asked.

Zhu Xiao looked at Ah Xiu.

She thought it was good to say it so bluntly, and nodded.

"Ah Xiao, you are so good!" Ah Xiu smiled.

There are several sisters in Ah Xiu's family, all of whom work as maids in large families, and they have to take it home when they make money, because she is not sold as a slave and does not get much money.

Ah Xiu Niang Zhu Xiao has seen a woman who is very honest and responsible, and it is said that she came to tell Ah Xiu that his father is much better, and in a few days, Ah Xiu will be able to go home.

Ah Xiu's father was a stonemason, when he was working, the stone hit his leg, and it took a lot of money to see a doctor, so the sisters went to work as maids in large families, and earned money to take home, which was also to save some expenses for the family.

"Then what are you going to do?" Ah Xiu couldn't help but ask.

“……”

Zhu Xiao thought about it very seriously.

Old Mrs. Qin is old, her appetite is not good, she can't eat too greasy things, and the things made in the kitchen in the house are quite light, but the old lady is tired of eating them.

"White fungus lotus seed chrysanthemum soup!"

She saw that the chrysanthemums in the garden were blooming just right, and if she had told the seventh aunt, she should be able to pick two.

"What needs me to do when the time comes, I'll help you do it together!" Ah Xiu said with a grin.

Ah Xiu always thinks that Zhu Xiao is very good, she doesn't fight or take it, everyone in the kitchen likes Ah Xiao, although her face is swollen like a pig's head recently, but her temperament is really good, and she never procrastinates when she is called to do something.

"Hmm!"

Zhu Xiao nodded.

Chrysanthemum soup with white fungus lotus seeds, it is not difficult to make, that is, the white fungus needs to be simmered for a long time, but the little maids must be filial to the old lady, and the kitchen will also give a chance.

On the eighth night of the first month, Zhu Xiao soaked the white fungus, and the lotus seed went to the lotus heart, seeing that she was serious about doing things, Ah Xiu sat on the side and was a little nervous.

"Ah Xiao, I can't help you with anything!"

"It's okay, when the time comes, you'll be counted!"

"Ah Xiao, you are so good!"

On the morning of the ninth day of the first lunar month, basically Ah Xiu did all the work, and Zhu Xiao concentrated on cooking things with a small stove, that is, Ah Xiu brought back breakfast for her, so when it comes to credit, there is naturally half of Ah Xiu.

By the time it was almost noon, Zhu Xiao's white fungus lotus seed chrysanthemum soup had been ready, and it was put in a beautiful flower pot and brought to the front.

Old Mrs. Qin looked at the filial piety of her subordinates, and she couldn't be happy, the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law were in the capital, and the third daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law stayed in Chengpu County to accompany her, and they all said auspicious words at this time.

Mrs. Qin smiled, her eyes swept the table slightly, and she saw the white fungus lotus seed chrysanthemum soup in the bowl, the most important thing is to meet the occasion, today Chongyang ascends to appreciate the chrysanthemum, the children have already gone to the height and come back, this is not to appreciate the chrysanthemum and eat crabs.

"Scoop a bowl of soup for me!" Old Madam Qin whispered.

Mrs. Qin San immediately got up and scooped a bowl for the old lady.

"When you look at it, you feel fragrant, mother, taste it!"

"Hmm!"

Old Madam Qin took the bowl and tasted it shallowly, only to feel that her mouth was full of fragrance, and she couldn't help but eat a few spoons before she praised, "This soup is good, you can also taste it!" ”

The maid immediately distributed it to the masters, and Mrs. Qin San bowed, "It's really good, I didn't expect that our family has such a good chef in making soup!" ”

The same ingredients, the heat is different, and the taste is different.

The main thing is that the old lady ate the small bowl.

Mrs. Qin San felt the need to ask, who made this, and rewarded some silver, so that she could do it well in the future, and let the old lady eat too much.

When the children are older, she naturally wants to take them to the capital to say goodbye, but the old lady is not in good health, and she is also entangled, and she does not dare to act rashly.

"Mother, if you don't, call someone over and see who did it!"

"Hmm!"

Old Madam Qin bowed her head.

It's rare for someone to make something, she can eat it, and she doesn't feel tired, so she naturally has to pay attention to it.

Immediately let people call Zhu Xiao.

When Zhu Xiaolin left, she glanced at Ah Xiu, who was looking at her, and reached out to pull Ah Xiu.

“……”

Ah Xiu was stunned.

But his eyes were red, and he pushed Zhu Xiao, "You go, whatever the old lady asks in a while, you can say anything!" ”

"I, I, stupid!" Zhu Xiao whispered.

In the end, I still pulled Ah Xiu together.

When she arrived at the front hall, looking at Zhu Xiao's face, the old lady was startled, "What's wrong with this girl's face?" ”

Zhu Xiao pushed Ah Xiu, and Ah Xiu hurriedly replied, "Back to the old lady, Ah Xiao's face peeled off a few days ago, and the slave begged the seventh aunt to get some ointment, and it swelled like this when she wiped it, and it hasn't been well yet!" ”

"And who made this soup?" Old Madam Qin asked again.

"It was Ah Xiao who did it, she stuttered a little, so she ......" Ah Xiu said, cautiously looking at Old Madam Qin.

Old Madam Qin looked at Zhu Xiao.

Poor to see, a face swollen like this.

"Girl, does it hurt?"

Zhu Xiao hurriedly shook his head.

If it doesn't hurt or itch, it just doesn't go down the swelling.

"You stutter?" Old Madam Qin asked again.

"Return, return to the old lady, there is, a little!" Zhu Xiao whispered.

Old Madam Qin smiled slightly when she heard this, "It's not serious, just say it slowly, you made this soup?" ”

"Yes!" Zhu Xiao responded, thought about it and said, "Ah Xiu, there is help!" ”

Old Madam Qin looked at the two little maids, knowing that they would be rewarded and did not fight for merit, it was indeed rare.

"Since you said that Ah Xiu has helped, then the two of them will be rewarded together, and one person will be rewarded with five dollars of silver, you go back and think about it, see what kind of dishes you will cook at night, if it is done well, I will reward you again!"

When Ah Xiu heard this, he pulled Zhu Xiao and was about to kneel.

Old Madam Qin smiled and said, "You don't have to kneel, go down!" ”

Motioned to the big girl next to her to deal with the matter.

When Zhu Xiaolin left, he glanced back at Old Madam Qin, and Old Madam Qin also looked at her.

At first glance, Old Madam Qin felt that this child had some fate, and thought about using it first, and then carefully asked how he came to the mansion when the time came.

A soup got five coins of silver, that is, five hundred wen, and Ah Xiu was very happy.

When she came back with the money, she couldn't believe it, "Ah Xiao, is this true?" ”

"Hmm!" Zhu Xiao's head.

She also gave half of the five dollars to the seventh aunt.

Ah Xiu was happy for a while before saying, "Ah Xiao, I can't ask for so much, I want half of it, okay?" ”

"It's all for you, take it home!" Zhu Xiao whispered.

Raise your hand and touch Ah Xiu's head.

"Ah Xiao, why are you so good!" Ah Xiu's eyes were red.

Her family is really short of money, but her father and mother love them and don't sell them, just help in the Qin family, take care of food, a few hundred wen a month, and the family also has money to give her father medicine.

"You, you've helped!" Zhu Xiao said this again, thinking about what to do at night?

You can't be too much at once, and you can't be too bad.

"Ah Xiao, you come with me!" The seventh aunt called softly at the door.

Zhu Xiao immediately took the money over.

When he arrived at the seventh aunt's house, he handed over the money.

The seventh aunt hesitated for a moment and took the five coins of silver.

"In the future, the old lady will reward you, you don't have to give it to me, and you don't have to give me the salary!"

“？”

So five dollars is the last silver given?

"You and the minibus are cousins, right?"

Zhu Xiao nodded hurriedly.

"Where is your home?" The seventh aunt asked again.

Zhu Xiao stammered again.

The seventh aunt bowed, "You go and think about it, what to do at night, let Ah Xiu give you a hand, you can take whatever you need in the kitchen, the old lady is not in good health, try to eat as light as possible, do you understand?" ”

"Yes!"

Zhu Xiao responded.

When she returned to the house, Ah Xiu was also called over after a while, and when Ah Xiu came back, Zhu Xiao's eyes were a little evasive, as well as self-blame, remorse, and guilt, and she wanted to speak several times, but she didn't dare to say it.

Tears swirled in his eyes, and he forced them back.

Zhu Xiao knew that the seventh aunt would definitely want Ah Xiu to stare at her, and she just pretended not to know anything.

In the evening is a chrysanthemum fish porridge.

The sea bass is steamed and the meat is cooked, the porridge is boiled in a pot, and when the porridge is ready, the fish and chrysanthemums are put down, some finely chopped ham meat is added, and it is slowly simmered, and finally boiled and then put a little salt.

It's simple and fragrant.

When the porridge was served, Old Madam Qin ate it for half a night.

For an old lady who only eats two bites of a meal on weekdays and doesn't want to eat again, how heavy is the amount of this half bowl of porridge.

Zhu Xiao was still waiting for news, and the minibus had already come to her.

Hand her an orange.

"Childe's reward, eat quickly!" The minibus laughed.

Maybe it's a good life, the minibus looks a lot taller, and there is meat on his face.

Looking at Zhu Xiao's still swollen face, "What's going on with your face?" Would I like to take you to see a doctor? ”

"It's fine!" Zhu Xiao peeled the orange and ate it, it was really sweet.

Half of it was given to the minibus.

The minibus hesitated for a moment, smiled and stretched out his hand to take it, "You have to take good care of yourself, I heard that you made chrysanthemum soup today, the old lady liked it very much, and you made it at night?" ”

"Hmm!" Zhu Xiao's head.

This in itself is the purpose of their trip, and now it is being achieved step by step.

Xiaoba wanted to say something else, but he felt that someone was hiding aside and eavesdropping, so he hurriedly changed his words, "You must be careful when you cook for the old lady, some real things are mutually reinforcing, ask more about the lady who cooks for the old lady, I think you will have to change the house soon, that Ah Xiu ......"

"She's good!" Zhu Xiao whispered.

"If you think it's good to be a good person, but you can't have one tendon, you have to have more eyes, you take care of yourself, I'll come to see you in two days and bring you food!" After the minibus finished speaking, before leaving, he rubbed Zhu Xiao's head again.

Zhu Xiao glared at him.

Little Bahaha laughed, "I'm your cousin, what's wrong with rubbing your head!" ”

“……”

What kind of cousin is this, sooner or later, he will be separated and go his own way.
