Chapter 10 Provocation
It had just snowed, and the weather outside was a little cold, and after Jin Zhao left Fu Shi, he didn't stay all the way and went straight to Mu Jin Courtyard. Along the way, I talked to Qiaoci from time to time, which flattered Qiaoci, and she was also very unaccustomed to it, the eldest lady is usually not like this.
Qiao Ci said in a low voice: "The slave is at fault, she shouldn't have spoken without sense of proportion before, which made the eldest lady unhappy."
Jin Zhao immediately stopped, turned to her and said, "I understand that you are for my good, but I shouldn't have punished you for being unhappy, you don't have to go to your heart."
As soon as these words came out, Qiaoci was stunned. The eldest lady would never say such a thing, and this is the first time.
Qiao Ci hurriedly replied: "Miss, don't say that, if you want to be wrong, it's the slave's fault, and the eldest lady is not wrong."
Indeed, there is nothing wrong with being the master.
Jin Zhao was just about to open his mouth when a woman's voice in the distance came into his ears.
"Sister Peach." It was Xia Fu who spoke, Su Jinling's personal maid.
The two of them actually met together, remembering the events of their previous life, Jin Zhao was interested for a while, and glanced at Qiaoci.
Qiao Ci immediately understood, stopped talking, and followed Jin Zhao to a place, intending to listen to what the two would say next.
Xia Fu walked forward quickly, took Bi Tao's arm, and said to her with a smile: "Sister Bi Tao, you are really beautiful today, but you are going to grind for the third young master?"
Bi Tao nodded a little shyly, and said softly: "Exactly, I don't know what Sister Xia Fu is looking for me?"
Xia Fu is a first-class lady in the house, and she is also a celebrity around Su Jinling, and her tone is polite and polite.
Xia Fu looked at her and replied with a smile: "Why, can't I talk to you, I have to have something to find you." After a pause, he continued, "Also, Sister Bi Tao is on an errand with the third young master, her identity is extraordinary, and she is not comparable to ordinary people, otherwise, this kind of thing can be done by other maids, but she only asks you to go." If my sister becomes rich in the future, don't forget me. ”
Bi Tao is not very old, but Xia Fu's words really heard it, and she was secretly happy, but she pushed Xia Fu away on her face, turned her face away, and pretended to be shy: "Sister Xia Fu, don't make fun of me, the third young master will marry in the future is the daughter of a big family, and I am just a maid in the house, the master and servant are different, Bi Tao can stay and serve the third young master is already very content, how dare you expect anything else."
Xia Fu put her hand on Bi Tao's hand again, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and said with a smile: "Look at what you said, I thought I was coaxing you with words, with your better appearance, I'm afraid there are few people in the mansion who can overshadow you, what about Miss Qianjin, with your position in the heart of the third young master, I am afraid that they will not succeed."
Xia Fu said a few words, Bi Tao's heart itched, as if it was really as the other party said, the third young master would marry her, and she would be glorious in the future. After the joy, she quickly realized something, hurriedly came back to her senses, waved her hand and said, "No, no, no, this joke can't come, Sister Xia Fu won't make fun of me anymore."
Xia Fu didn't mean to stop, she continued: "Why is it a joke about you, even my girl often praises you in front of the slave maid, you know, my second lady rarely praises the maid in the house, you can get into her eyes, naturally you are good." If the eldest lady hadn't pointed you out to the third young master, maybe the second lady would have asked you over. ”
When Bi Tao heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly said: "Sister Xia Fu, don't talk to me, who in the house doesn't know, you are the big celebrity next to the second lady, compared to you, what am I worth." I used to think that Rouge was the celebrity in front of the eldest lady, but the eldest lady took Qiaoci to the eldest lady to ask for peace, and the eldest lady also punished her to copy Buddhist scriptures, which is really unimaginable. ”
Speaking of which, Bi Tao remembered Rouge's depressed appearance. In the past, the eldest lady would not be so kind to Qiaoci, but recently her attitude has taken a 180-degree turn, which makes people very confused.
The corners of Xia Fu's mouth hooked, and she glanced at Bi Tao, how could she not hear what Bi Tao said, but Bi Tao's words were true, she had served by the side of the second lady for many years, but it was not comparable to others. Just now, she just said it casually, not everyone can compare with her, even if she is a little self-aware.
Thinking so in his heart, he still said hypocritically on the surface: "I have also heard about this, it is strange to say, I really don't know what the eldest lady thinks, obviously Qiaoci made a mistake, and in the end she was like a nobody, if this is the case in the future, the rules in this house will not be messed up."
Hearing this, Bi Tao sneered: "She is the master, we are slaves, the rules are not the master's words, what can be done." But Ling Rouge still wants to serve the eldest lady with all her heart, maybe she will be happy to serve her, and she can point her a good family business, but now it seems that it is unlikely. ”
Xia Fu rolled her eyes, patted her shoulder, and said comfortingly: "You have the best relationship with Rouge in the house, I naturally understand that you are not worth it for her when you say these angry words, but these are just said in front of me, and you can't say it in front of others, in case it reaches the ears of the eldest lady one day, it is not something you and I can afford." Let's tell your little sister to look away, who told us to be born to be maids, and we were born to be angry with people's faces. ”
After saying that, Xia Fu sighed in passing.
Bi Tao understood this truth, so she said: "I should take what Sister Xia Fu said to heart, and when I turned around, I told Rouge to tell her to look away." It's just that the coming day is long, who will have the last laugh is not necessarily, let Qiaoci's girl be proud for a few days, I believe that Rouge will gain the trust of the eldest lady. ”
The corners of Xia Fu's mouth stiffened, and it took so many words to speak, Bi Tao actually still had such a thought, it was really a tendon, and when she was about to open her mouth to speak, she was interrupted by Bi Tao.
Bi Tao looked at the time and said, "By the way, it's not too early, I can't talk to Sister Xia Fu here, the young master is still waiting for me to go over, it's not good to delay for a long time."
After speaking, Xia Fu noticed that her face was a little anxious, her eyes were looking ahead, and her attention was no longer here, so she immediately gave up and said: "Look at me, it's so cold, I'm still talking to you, and the young master is still waiting for you to come over, I can't delay your time, the young master has always only recognized the ink you studied, you go quickly."
If it weren't for the ink she studied, how could she call her over every time, a flush appeared on Bi Tao's face, and she replied shyly: "Sister Xia Fu, I'll go over first, and we'll talk another day."
Xia Fu pretended to understand the meaning and waved her hand at her: "Go, go, let's go, don't pull you idle, it's important to get down to business, I don't want you to be in a hurry with me then."
