Chapter 9: Choosing a Handmaiden
In the past two days, every time Qin Ruobai passed by the courtyard, he would be paid attention to by Zhuyu waiting at the door with earnest eyes.
Qin Ruobai was able to turn a blind eye, but he would be stared at back and forth, and he was really bored, so he simply didn't bother to go out, opened his own small warehouse, took a few things, and made a fan.
The woman in the house is inevitably lonely, Qin Ruobai doesn't like to intrigue with others, and after her mother passed away in her previous life, she often nested in the courtyard and tossed some favorite objects.
However, this skill was once wanted to give a gift to Baili Yu, and he started to learn it, and a lover is always very persistent, so she spent a lot of time writing it.
Obviously, she has all the best materials, and the mahogany took it out and began to carve, with a hollow wrapped plum as the fan bone, black yarn as the fan surface, embroidered with blood-red plum blossoms on the top, and a red butterfly with wings spread and flying at the end of the black rope as a knot.
"Miss, Madame has summoned you to the Furong Garden. ”
There was no personal maidservant, and such a trivial matter was still conveyed by Zhuyu outside the door, Qin Ruobai locked the finished fan in the treasure box, put on his coat and got up to go out.
I think there is news that she wants to buy a maidservant, originally she was a personal maid of Zhuyu, but now that Zhuyu has been surrendered, there are few good people on her side, and she is not very good.
I used to be so stupid that it was enough for a servant girl to have a loyal one, but now I think it's really not worth mentioning, it doesn't matter if you are loyal or not, there must be so many of them.
In addition to the identity, you can also use a competitive atmosphere to balance the self-motivation and sense of urgency of the servants, and occasionally spoil one of them, and several handmaidens will supervise each other.
When passing by the door, Qin Ruobai stopped under Zhuyu's expectant gaze and smiled softly and amiably: "Keep up!"
"Yes!" Jewel said with joy.
Qin Ruobai's eyes were full of eyes, and his expression was unfathomable, but he didn't know if Zhuyu could still laugh so happily when he arrived at Furong Garden.
Walking into Furong Garden, someone was waiting by Jiang Cairong's side early, it was her sister who was eager to rub up when she encountered some good things, and she greeted her with joy when she saw her coming at this moment.
"My sister is here, so I really made my mother wait. ”
If it weren't for the occasion, she would have wanted to admire, Qin Ruozi was a demon all the time, and even the relationship between her and her mother had to be stirred up, it was difficult for Qin Ruozi to be so well-intentioned.
Qin Ruobai smiled: "It's not as well-informed as my sister, I'm just choosing a maidservant, why shouldn't my sister go on the pole to join in the fun, just do more homework if you have nothing to do, and Mr. Xu won't always praise me alone." ”
Speaking of this, Qin Ruobai showed a helpless look of embarrassment. That's right, I'm so good, as a top student, I don't crush you, I feel really uncomfortable.
Qin Ruozi almost couldn't hold back the smile on her face: "My sister is really good at laughing." ”
"What do you mean by laughing? Sister, I sincerely persuade her, my sister is a concubine of the General's Mansion, and it is really a little difficult to focus on dance skills, so it is better to practice more inside. ”
Qin Ruobai held up the majesty of her eldest sister and taught Qin Ruozi step by step, her face full of sorrow for Qin Ruozi's behavior.
Dance skills are not bad, but this kind of skills, not close to the level of the Tao, is equivalent to the activities of young people, it is good to improve the spirit, but too much attention, it is too frivolous.
The daughter of the general's mansion can't be the woman who serves the people in Israel, and it can be said that it is fun to dance to her husband by chance, and she swaggers in front of everyone, which is like grabbing a job with a dancer.
Dancing Girl: This bite of rice is getting worse and worse, there are too many young ladies who are grabbing jobs!
Qin Ruobai's words also have a layer of meaning, scolding Qin Ruozi on the side for being a hypocritical villain who is floating on the surface, and a frivolous person who has no achievements inside.
As soon as she heard this, Qin Ruozi almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth, and she was partial to Qin Ruobai's smiling face, and she had no reason to reach out to hit the smiling person.
What's more, Qin Ruobai's identity has an advantage, and the sentence may not sound good, but he can't find something unreasonable: "Sister, let's take a look, what kind of choice to choose." ”
Qin Ruozi changed the topic so bluntly, but it was rare, she had always been articulate, and she could frequently make her father laugh with a few words.
However, Qin Ruobai couldn't help but be vigilant, now Qin Ruozi is only a fourteen-year-old girl, but she can have such forbearance, which shows that her mind is not simple.
Jiang Cairong herself is not the kind of person who fights around, she is not suitable to participate in the quarrel of her youngest daughter's family, and her own daughter has not fallen behind.
"Okay, Ruobai and follow me to the backyard to meet the children sent by the tooth shop, most of them are under twelve according to what you want. Jiang Cairong's words stopped the fighting between the two little women.
Someone had already arranged a seat in the backyard, and Jiang Cairong was just pressing for her daughter today, and everything was according to Qin Ruobai's own rules.
A group of children, lined up one after another, some of them were maidservants who had already been in a big family, full of energy, and their eyes were clever and vigilant to pay attention to the performance of others around them.
The girls who have just been sold have a touch of stubbornness on their faces.
was originally prepared for careful selection, but looking at Qin Ruozi's selection behavior that was more serious than her, Qin Ruobai lost interest.
"But do you have any skills?" Qin Ruobai asked softly.
The basic articulate and healthy are all checked by experienced grandmothers before they are brought to them, and Qin Ruobai is not ready to repeat the test, and directly hits the point.
The echo rang out.
"I know how to cook, and there used to be people in my family who worked for taverns. ”
"I know how to be a girl, I once learned it in the embroidery workshop. ”
"I know martial arts. ”
"I ...... I eat a lot and have a lot of strength. ”
Qin Ruobai stopped at knowing martial arts, and looked sideways: "How can you think of martial arts to come to the General's Mansion to sell yourself as a maid?"
The woman, who was obviously half a head taller than the other little girls, replied expressionlessly: "My mother is dead, my father ran away with others, my relatives and friends dislike me for being too good at eating, and I can't support myself." ”
This...... Reason, it's miserable!
But why are today's children so able to eat, one or two are pitted in eating, and the other is more ruthless, directly good at eating!
It is said that the girl who can eat very much, looking at the little man, she can't tell where she will be fat, her eyes are round, her face is round, and she looks very pleasing to the eye.
Qin Ruobai was full of interest: "How much can you eat in one meal?"
The little girl gave birth to five fingers: "Five big bowls." ”
Returning to his position and sitting down, Qin Ruobai's eyes were like torches, sweeping over everyone: "I only need a death contract, if I don't want to, it's too late to regret it now." ”
