Chapter 8 Receiving Gifts
Cuicui took the painkiller from the housekeeper, and after serving Xiaoqiu to take it, she applied Yuliu aloe vera cream for her.
Xiaoqiu said that she was a little hungry, so she had no choice but Cuicui went to the kitchen to get her some food. After two busy hours, Xiaoqiu finally fell asleep, and Cuicui hurried back to Zhao Yuting's side.
Cuicui suddenly felt that Zhao Yuting was much easier to serve, and she usually only needed to move her mouth.
"Madam, I have already gone to the housekeeper to get painkillers, let Sister Xiaoqiu take it, and also helped Sister Xiaoqiu apply Yuliu aloe vera cream, and then I asked the kitchen to prepare some food, Sister Xiaoqiu has fallen asleep after eating." Cuicui's tone was full of exhaustion.
"Well, Xiaoqiu didn't say anything, did you?" Zhao Yuting looked at herself seriously in the bronze mirror,
"Sister Xiaoqiu said that I would like to thank Mrs. for her care and kindness, and after her injuries heal, I will personally thank Mrs.
"Okay, I know~" Zhao Yuting was absent-minded at this moment.
"Hey, I said slow down, this is our young lady's birthday gift, can you afford to pay for it? Give me a little steady~" The housekeeper's voice faintly came from outside the courtyard, and he stopped outside the door after a noise.
"Madame, I'm Steward Li."
"You go and see, what's going on." Zhao Yuting kept fiddling with her face all the time.
"Yes, madam~" Cuicui walked to the door and saw the butler standing outside the door, with twenty people behind him, and five conspicuous large mahogany boxes,
"Steward Li, what's the matter? Madame is busy at this time, you can tell me first. Cuicui asked knowingly.
"This is the birthday gift that the guests of last night's dinner presented to Miss, and the host ordered me to bring it to Miss. I sent someone to count it, and I sent it right away. The butler replied graciously.
When Zhao Yuting heard this, she immediately put down the bronze mirror in her hand, straightened her skirt, and then walked out quietly.
"Yo, Steward Li, why do you have time to come to my Furong Courtyard today, I thought you were busy punishing people every day." Zhao Yuting's face was full of disdain,
"Madam, don't make fun of me, this punishment is not something I can control the old slave, and I also act on the orders of my master. I can't help what happened last night, but I did my best, and I told them to take it easy. Those rough people, don't say that they use eight points of force, even five points of force will make Xiaoqiu's girl break half of her life. Madame, you also have pity on the poor old slave, I am indeed helpless. Besides, Madame, your extravagant Furong Courtyard, how can I wait for people to come to the place when they want to, and it is a great honor to come to you, Madame, and make me feel that it is a great honor. ”
"Oh, Steward Li, do I still want to thank you for keeping my Xiaoqiu alive. But you're telling the truth, this Furong Courtyard is indeed not a place where anyone wants to come, for the sake of your honesty, I don't remember the villain, but your biggest advantage must continue to be maintained! ”
"Madame reminds me that I will take Madame's words to heart. Madam, I'm here today to give Miss a birthday gift, please Mrs. take a look~" The housekeeper said and let people open the mahogany box door.
Zhao Yuting's eyes shone brightly after seeing the contents of the box, all kinds of rare treasures made her eyes dazzled, and Zhao Yuting suddenly felt that her Furong Courtyard did exude a graceful and luxurious atmosphere.
"These gifts are worthy of your noble eyes, madam, oh, by the way, look at my memory. The owner really loves the young lady, and specially customizes a piece of gold and jade for the young lady in Master Long. As she spoke, she opened the purple wooden box that she had been holding tightly in her hand, and Zhao Yuting saw that the translucent and warm white jade droplets exuded a rich aura, and the gold-engraved lotus flowers on it were exquisitely made, worthy of being the master's work.
When the housekeeper saw Zhao Yuting's stunned appearance, he felt a burst of disdain in his heart, and he was really a person who had never seen the world.
Steward Li turned out to be a person from the Sun family's old mansion, and then followed Sun Weitian to this Taishi Mansion, and he hadn't seen anything good for so many years.
"Madam, if there is no problem, where do you see the things for you?" The housekeeper's words brought Zhao Yuting back to her senses,
"Well, let's put it in my room first." Zhao Yuting walked in front of the housekeeper, and the housekeeper handed over the mahogany box with both hands, and then arranged for someone to carry the gift to Zhao Yuting's house.
When I came out, I saw Zhao Yuting still staring at the jade in her hand,
"Madam, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." After the housekeeper finished speaking, he was not in a hurry to leave, he was waiting, waiting for Zhao Yuting's reward.
Although today's birthday gift is for Sun Chunyang, she is only five years old, so naturally she doesn't need these things, and they are not all Zhao Yuting's.
This Zhao Yuting is usually very childish, but today she has so many treasures, if she still buckles the rope, it is really contemptible.
Zhao Yuting's mind was on the gold inlaid jade, and she didn't have time to pay attention to the housekeeper, Cuicui knew that the housekeeper seemed to be waiting for Zhao Yuting's answer, but in fact, he was waiting for a reward.
"Madam, what do you think you need a housekeeper to do?" Cuicui stepped forward and asked in a low voice,
"Ah, no need, it's really hard to be a housekeeper today." Zhao Yuting looked at the housekeeper who had not left for a long time, and finally understood his intentions, this old thing really didn't really come to send things.
"There are five taels of copper coins here, if the housekeeper doesn't dislike it, just accept it, go down and share it with everyone, you can't let your hard work be in vain." Cuicui took the copper coin in Zhao Yuting's hand, turned around and handed it to the housekeeper.
The housekeeper looked at the five taels of copper and didn't want to take it, it wasn't enough for him to reach out and take it, and he suddenly felt like he had eaten a fly.
"It's not too little, it's not too little, Madame is so polite, you really torture the old slave like this, and it's our blessing to do things for Madame. But since it's Madame's heart, then I'll accept it, thank you, Madame, then I'll quit first. ”
"Well, let's go down~" Zhao Yuting turned around and walked into the house first, and then the housekeeper saluted and left with someone.
