Chapter 028: Ni'er
Early the next morning, Fan Yanqiao had just gotten up, and he heard the sound of someone cleaning and moving in the small living room outside.
She pulled the blanket over her head and sighed softly.
If it was in his own home, her father would never allow the servant to disturb her sleep in this way, and although her father got up early, her mother kept the routine of the Russian aristocracy, and usually slept until noon.
Although Fan Yanqiao is not like her mother, she is still used to getting up late.
With his eyes closed and thinking about his own situation at home when his parents were alive, Fan Yanqiao's chest became wrenched.
She buried her head in the soft pillow, clutched her chest and breathed hard, then lifted the quilt and stared at the crystal lamp on the ceiling with red eyes.
The maid outside the door was cleaning outside without any scruples, and a woman shouted in a shrill voice: "Hongmei, look at the corner of this table, you haven't wiped it at all!" Do you dare to do this in the big house? Why don't you come and wipe it again! ”
After a pause, he called again: "Xiaohuan, don't you want to water this flower, and use me to mention it?" Such an expensive bluegrass, why don't you care at all! ”
The voice could be heard clearly through a door, as if he deliberately wanted Fan Yanqiao to hear it, and the more he spoke, the more energetic he became.
Fan Yanqiao's face sank, lifted the quilt and slowly walked out of bed, she walked to the bedroom door, reached out and held the carved copper handle, and was about to open the door, when she suddenly heard the female voice outside muttering, "What time is it?" I really think of myself as a young lady, and most of the young people have been up for half an hour, and such a master is really bigger than a serious master......"
This time, the voice was not loud, and it could be heard deliberately low, but Fan Yanqiao could hear it clearly.
She frowned slightly, and grabbed the doorknob to pull it open.
The woman outside the door was standing with her back to the door, she was startled when she heard the sound, and when she turned around, she saw Fan Yanqiao looking at her with a cold face, her face was a little uncomfortable, but she reacted quickly, a deliberately respectful and indifferent expression floated, and she whispered in her mouth: "Miss, ......are you awake?"
As soon as the other four servants who were cleaning saw Fan Yanqiao come out, they stopped what they were doing, lowered their heads and shouted, "Miss." ”
Fan Yanqiao stared at the woman in front of him with a cold face.
This woman is very young, no more than twenty years old, with a melon seed face, very white skin, big and round eyes, sharp and thin eyebrows, raised eyebrows, and the whole person exudes an indescribable charm.
She was not very tall, but she was curvaceous, with a jade bracelet on one white and round arm, and a delicately braided red rope on the other.
Fan Yanqiao secretly thought in her heart, she didn't know what the origin of this woman was, looking at her dressed, she shouldn't be an ordinary maid in the house, thinking of what Xue Shao said last night, her heart instantly understood, it seemed that this was the woman named Ni'er on his other side.
In this mansion, Xue Shao has a perverse and vicious temperament, so it makes sense that the servant at his end is so arrogant.
Because of Xue Shao's relationship, coupled with her actions just now, Fan Yanqiao couldn't help but instinctively dislike Ni'er.
She looked at her coldly, nodded, and said lightly, "Come and help me get dressed...... I can't sleep......"
As soon as Ni'er heard this, the expression on her face became unnatural, a smile appeared on her face, and she said to Fan Yanqiao: "Miss, I have always only served the young and the young to dress, and I have never served a woman, I am clumsy, I am afraid that it will not be in line with the lady's wishes, otherwise let Xiaohuan serve you to wear, right?" ”
Fan Yanqiao stopped, slowly turned to look at her, frowned slightly, and asked word by word, "What?" Won't you stop learning? Besides, is it possible that you will only serve men in the future? In the future, if you marry a wife and have children, and you are pointed out to serve your wife, you will say the same? ”
Although Fan Yanqiao's words were a bit excessive, he was heart-wrenching, and Ni'er's face was blue and red.
Fan Yanqiao's mother, Helena, was born in an aristocratic family, and learned how to manage slaves and assign daily work from an early age, so that she could calmly be the mistress of a noble family after marrying in the future.
So Fan Yanqiao was also taught by her mother like this since she was a child, although the countries are different, but the servants have the same temperament, how to train tricky servants, although Helena has never said it, but Fan Yanqiao knows with her instinct of self-preservation that if she can't be suppressed at this time, I'm afraid that she won't have a good life in the marshal's mansion in the future.
Seeing that Ni'er didn't speak, she continued, "Your name is Ni'er, right?" I don't need you, since you'll only wait for men to get dressed, then you can go back to Dashao......"
When Ni'er heard her words, her face stiffened, and she squeezed a smile for a while, and said in a difficult voice: "Miss said it was funny, I was sent by the young man to serve you, although I am stupid, but I should be able to study for two days, Miss, please go and sit tight, I will wash my hands and come to serve you to dress......"
"No need...... Fan Yanqiao glanced at her, knowing that she wanted to take the opportunity to wash her hands to hide, and then when she couldn't stand it, she would find someone else to serve.
She raised her chin and pointed to the porcelain basin on the table next to her and said, "I see that the water in that basin is also clean, so you can wash two handfuls and come over......
She knew that this kind of family had strict rules, and the bathroom would never be used by the maid, so she directly asked her to wash her hands in the basin of the rag.
Xiaohuan next to him saw it and hurriedly whispered: "Sister Ni'er, the water in this basin is clean, I haven't used it yet......"
Ni'er glared at Xiaohuan fiercely, reluctantly walked over, reached out to wash two handfuls, wiped them dry with a rag, and entered Fan Yanqiao's bedroom.
She called out to Xiaohuan as she walked inside, "You come and help me." ”
Closing the door, the two waited for Fan Yanqiao to take off his bedclothes, Ni'er opened the closet, but her face couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, only to see the golden wall in the closet, gauze, silk, soft satin, short coat, long coat, pajamas, bathrobes, night dresses, afternoon clothes, all kinds of bedclothes, and a number of semi-formal dinner clothes worn at home, enough to hang a wooden pillar more than two meters long, colorful women's clothing, at first glance, there are dozens of cheongsams alone.
Ni'er's face burned all of a sudden, she had never seen so many beautiful women's clothes since she grew up, and for a while she felt mixed in her heart, she reached out and touched those gorgeous clothes that still had the fragrance of jasmine, and asked in a sour tone: "Miss, which one do you want to wear?" ”
Fan Yanqiao glanced at her and said lightly: "Bring that black Hua Sige skirt over......
Ni'er listened, reached out and rummaged through them one by one, saw a black one, took it out and asked, "Is this it?" ”
Fan Yanqiao nodded: "Take it." ”
Reluctantly, Ni'er closed the closet door and took the dress.
After waiting for Fan Yanqiao to finish, Ni'er turned around and was about to leave, when she heard Fan Yanqiao say lightly: "Tie me in a simple bun, my hair is a little long, so it is weirdly hot." ”
Ni'er's face turned red all of a sudden, not ashamed, but angry.
