Chapter 13: Bumping
When Jin Zhao took the maid Qiaoci to Qinxuan Courtyard, he saw two little girls sitting at the door, chatting with melon seeds.
Jin Zhao vaguely remembered the names of these two little girls, one was called Dongliu and the other was Yingchun, both of whom were arranged by the Fu family to serve by his son's side before.
The two little girls patronized and talked, and they didn't notice when Jin Zhao came.
Dong Liu, who was a little chubby, said loudly: "Bi Tao has been in for a long time, why hasn't she come out, it's just a matter of studying ink, not to mention that the third young master is not here."
Yingchun spit out a mouthful of melon seed shells, snorted at her, and said: "Be quiet, don't let the people inside hear this, Bi Tao's temper, you know, you have always only listened to pleasant words, if you let her hear what you said just now, wouldn't it be angry for yourself."
After Yingchun's reminder, Dongliu immediately became conscious, so he lowered his voice and said, "What you said is very true, you can't let her hear it." She is now a big celebrity in front of the third young master, maybe one day she will climb into the bed of the third young master, fly up the branches and become a phoenix. At the beginning, Aunt Shen also used a trick when the eldest lady was pregnant, and asked the general to marry her into the mansion. Maybe then we will have to call her a master, and we will salute when we meet, so it's better to mess with that Bi Tao at this time. ”
When Jin Zhao heard this, his expression was stunned, and his face was not very good-looking for a while. Her younger brother is only eleven years old, and the affairs of men and women are still far from him, these maids are ashamed to say these ugly words, hum, and want to fly on the branches to become a phoenix, don't say it's her, I'm afraid that my mother will not be the first to agree. I don't know how my mother chose these girls to serve in Su Chengye in the first place. If it continues like this, not only will it be unprofitable, but I am afraid that it will affect my younger brother.
The lessons of her previous life are vivid, and she must not repeat the mistakes of the past in this life and let this kind of thing happen.
The two little girls were talking about it, and they noticed the coldness in Su Jinzhao's eyes.
Yingchun nodded, divided some of the melon seeds in his hand with Dongliu, and continued: "We are maids, we are already cheap, if we can get into the eyes of the master, it will naturally be the best." It's also a good life, which we can't compare. ”
As soon as the words fell, Dong Liu snorted disappreciably, pursed his lips, and said with a little jealousy and unwillingness in his words: "It's just that I came two years earlier than us, I want to greet us when we first met, some talk and laugh, now the identity is different, seeing us from afar, they are all putting on a high posture, and on the grounds of studying ink, they come to the third young master if they have nothing to do, as if she is really the hostess of Qinxuan Courtyard." It's the same maid, this life is really different. ”
When Yingchun heard this, she hurriedly covered her mouth and whispered, "Why are you getting more and more energetic the more you talk, you can't forget what you told you just now." She glanced behind her, "Bi Tao is still in the house, in case she hears it, she must be unhappy, don't blame me for not reminding you then." ”
Dongliu wanted to open his mouth, thought about the words to welcome spring, and said, "What I said is also the truth."
At this time, Jin Zhao's face was even more embarrassed than just now, and she glanced at Qiaoci beside her.
Qiao Ci understood and immediately coughed as a reminder.
Hearing the sound, Yingchun Ying and Dongliu, who were about to speak, immediately looked up, and suddenly, both of them froze.
didn't have time to think about it, Dong Liu and Yingchun hurriedly stepped forward to kowtow to Jin Zhao, and said in trembling voices: "The slave has seen the eldest lady."
As they spoke, the two were too scared to raise their heads.
Jin Zhao looked at the two of them, remembered what he had just heard, and said in a rather cold tone: "I thought you had long since stopped paying attention to the rules of the house."
Hearing this, the two maids panicked even more, their legs were trembling, it seemed that what Fang just said, the eldest lady heard it. Speaking rashly, and for fear of annoying the eldest lady again, the two were speechless for a while.
Seeing this, Jin Zhao's voice sank, and he said, "Why, didn't you keep talking just now, this will become dumb." Who taught you the rules, the master can keep his mouth shut and not answer. ”
Jin Zhao looked at the two of them expressionlessly.
Dongliu, who talked endlessly just now, was already scared and trembling at this moment, Yingchun saw that she didn't make a sound, bit her lip, and replied in a low voice: "The eldest lady is angry, the slave and maid don't dare, the rules of the house, the slave and maid have always kept it in mind, and they don't dare to forget it."
As he spoke, he pulled Dongliu and hurriedly kowtowed to Jinzhao to admit his mistake.
"Miss, the slaves and maids know that they are wrong, please spare the slaves and maids this time......"
In the past, with Jinzhao's temperament, these two maids would have been put on the board a long time ago. This time, he didn't mean to do anything, and even before Jin Zhao started to say anything serious, the two maids were already scared, and tears of anxiety fell.
Seeing that the two maids were afraid of this, Jin Zhao didn't bother to meet them in general, she glanced at the melon seed shells on the ground, and ordered word by word: "Before I come out, clean up this place for me."
Yingchun and Dongliu nodded in response.
When Jin Zhao entered the house, the two maids immediately cleaned up the melon seed shells on the ground. However, a heart has been hanging and has not relaxed.
When Jin Zhao entered the house, Bi Tao was in a hurry to leave the house, if it wasn't for Jin Zhao's quick reaction, he almost bumped into it.
Bi Tao knelt down in a panic and said, "Miss, forgive your sins."
Jin Zhao didn't look at her, passed by her, walked straight to the bookcase, and then stopped and said, "Panicked, didn't you do something wrong?"
When Bi Tao heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and when she reacted, she thought that Jin Zhao was unhappy with her recklessness just now, so she hurriedly replied: "Back to the eldest lady, the slave knows her mistake and almost offended the eldest lady."
If she hadn't heard the eldest lady scolding Yingchun and Dongliu just now, she wouldn't have been in a hurry to leave the house. The third young master went to the eldest lady, and the eldest lady bumped into her staying in the house, which was not very good.
It's strange to think about it, in the past, the eldest lady didn't come over much, and even if she came, she would send a maid to squeak in advance, but today she said that she would come, so she was not prepared at all.
Jin Zhao sat down, looked around, frowned slightly, and asked her, "You are alone in the house?"
Bi Tao replied respectfully: "The eldest lady has not forgotten, every now and then, the third young master will go to the eldest lady to say goodbye, and it has become a habit over time."
Jin Zhao's eyebrows moved, and he said in his heart, her younger brother is still so filial, like this in her previous life, and she has not changed at all in this life. She still clearly remembers that on the day her mother left, Su Chengye was more uncomfortable than anyone else, and they all said that men don't flick when they have tears, but he is such a big man, and he cries the most when his mother leaves.
Thinking of this, Jin Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "In this way, you know this brother better than me."
