"Because Madame only needs two maids, one to help her with outside affairs, and the other to take care of the house." Xiao Huafeng said lightly, "Dealing with outsiders requires someone as smart and clever as Xiaoxue, and I just need to take care of the family at home." โ
Xiaoyu was still a little confused, looked at the small painting with a puzzled expression, and said with some confusion, "The mother-in-law who can take care of the house at home, how many are there?" โ
"That's because they're not qualified." Xiaohua said a few words for the first time, she knew from the beginning that she was not the kind of person who would take the initiative to cater to others, and Madame let her manage the house at home, with enough freedom and a comfortable life.
Everyone knows that it is important to take care of Mrs., and it is even more important to take care of the young masters and ladies of the Chi family to manage the inner courtyard of the Chi family.
The small painting has always occupied a very important position, and it never needs to please the lady, but it can still sit firmly in the position of the big girl, which makes everyone very confused.
Mother Wu hurriedly answered "yes" and didn't dare to say anything more.
Xiaoyu was not afraid of death and said, "Little painting girl, there are many girls like you in our yard!" โ
Xiaohua held the plate with both hands slightly, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, "Yes, why am I a big girl, you want to be a big girl, I'll give you a chance, just see if you can grasp it." โ
Mother Wu secretly said in her heart that it was not good, although the little painting girl was not the number one celebrity in front of Mrs., but she had been following Mrs. for a long time, Xiaoyu was looking for death.
The old man ate much more salt than the little girl ate, and Mother Wu hurriedly pulled Xiaoyu's arm and signaled Xiaoyu not to step forward.
Xiaoyu shook off Mother Wu, and her little face was full of seriousness, "Okay." โ
"You hold this, come with me." Xiao Hua said, handing the saucer in his hand to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu took the plate from Xiao Hua's hand, looked at the contents of the plate, and followed Xiao Hua anxiously towards Lin Guyu's courtyard.
"Small paintings." Before the small painting entered, the cry of Lin Guyu came from inside.
"Here we are." Xiaohua said, opened the curtain and walked in, leaning slightly to let Xiaoyu in.
The footsteps are not right, what Lin Guyu just heard was the footsteps of the small painting, why did he change people when he came in?
"Ma'am, this is hibiscus cake." Xiaoyu lowered her head and pretended to be calm and said.
"Small paintings." Lin Guyu's gaze just glanced at Xiao Yu's face, and then raised his eyes to look at the small painting, "I invited a nurturing grandmother from the Xu family a few days ago, you go over there to find Zixuan, he will send the nurturing grandma, just to teach rice cakes and Dong'er." โ
"Yes." Xiao Hua responded and thought for a while, "Madam, didn't you prepare clothes for the little marquis, do you want to send them together?" โ
Thinking about Xu Zixuan, he hasn't been here for a long time, and Lin Guyu doesn't know if he has grown taller again, "You take it to him to try, if it's not suitable, I'll change it." โ
"Okay."
Without waiting for the small painting to go out, Lin Guyu said casually, "A few days ago, a lot of fabrics were sent from the Western Regions, I picked a water-green one, and you can also pick a horse to make a new clothes." โ
"Mrs. Xie." Xiao Hua said and walked out very calmly.
When the little painting left, Lin Guyu's eyes fell on the little maid on the side, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Xiaohua is a careful person, and he will never let other little maids in casually, looking at the color of the clothes on this maid's body, he should be working in the kitchen.
"What's your name?" Lin Guyu asked lightly, not looking at the hibiscus cake on the plate.
"Slave maid Xiaoyu." Xiaoyu raised her eyes to look at Lin Guyu, and the corners of her lips slowly hooked.
Lin Guyu took the cup on the side, poured himself a glass of water, and said lightly, "Why did you come in?" โ
Xiaoyu's body paused slightly, her eyes were in a trance, and she said, "It was the little painting girl who asked the slave to come in!" โ
"Xiaohua is cautious, how can he casually let a maid in?" Lin Guyu suddenly put the teacup in his hand on the table, and said with a cold face, "It's not from the truth." โ
Xiaoyu was so frightened that she knelt directly on the ground, and said tremblingly, "Slave, slave just wants to work beside Madame, the little painting girl said to give the slave a chance!" โ
In the past, Lin Guyu had also heard that some little maids never obeyed the discipline of Xiaohua, and they were also disobedient to Xiaoxue.
"You now call all the maids and maids to my yard, by the way, except for taking care of Dong'er dumplings and rice cakes, you don't have to come over." Lin Guyu said lightly, I want to beat them well today and let them have a snack.
"Yes." Xiaoyu didn't know what she said wrong, Mrs. was so angry, when Mrs. talked to Xiaohua just now, she was obviously so gentle, and asked Xiaohua to choose fabrics to make clothes.
In two quarters of an hour, all the maids and women had arrived, and they stood timidly in the courtyard blowing the cold wind, not daring to say a word.
Lin Guyu saw that everyone was coming, opened the curtain and slowly came out of the house.
It seems that Xiaoxue has left, and the maids and women in this family are all ready to move, and the position of the big maid and the moon girl have always attracted them.
"All here?" Lin Guyu said, glancing at Xiaoyu who was just waiting in the house.
Xiaoyu stood at the very edge of the first row and answered "yes" crisply.
"Xiaoxue is married now, I will vacate a big girl position here, you think you can do it, stand up yourself." Lin Guyu said lightly, glanced at the pink nails, and his mood was already low to the bottom, "This is an opportunity for you to recommend yourself, and there will be no such store in this village after that." โ
At first, no one came forward, and then gradually one or two came forward.
Slowly, there were more people, and there were five people in the light rain.
"There are only two big maids in the family, one takes care of the family and the other is by my side," Lin Guyu said, spinning around the five people, "Xiaohua takes care of me, and I will choose one of you to take care of the big girl in the family." โ
Xiaoyu thought in her heart, things at home are generally arranged very properly, basically nothing to worry about, she just showed her face in front of her wife, and this position is likely to fall on her.
"I choose a maid, it's different from others." Lin Guyu said lightly, "Whoever can get this position must pass my test. โ
The maids standing in the back were a little frightened.
"Shu Qing!"
Lin Guyu shouted lightly.
"Ma'am." Suddenly, a woman in a black power suit appeared behind Lin Guyu.
When they stayed in the Chi family before, some of them had seen Xu Shuqing, and heard that Xu Shuqing was strong in martial arts and elusive.
Lin Guyu leaned into Shu Qing's ear and whispered a few words, and everyone saw that Shu Qing disappeared all of a sudden.
Lin Guyu moved a chaise longue and sat leisurely in the courtyard, looked at the maids for a while, and then fell on the five people, "Introduce yourself." โ
The girls who wanted to be big girls introduced themselves one after another when they heard Lin Guyu say this.
After the introduction of these five maids, they stood uneasily and waited, not knowing what Lin Guyu wanted to do.
After another half an hour, Xu Shuqing suddenly appeared in front of Lin Guyu, "Madam, it's ready." โ
"You five come with me!" Lin Guyu said, got up elegantly, and followed Xiaoxue towards the cold courtyard behind the Guogong Mansion near the mountain.
There was basically no one here, and the five maids looked at Lin Guyu and Xu Shuqing with a calm look, and pretended to be calm and followed.
As soon as they got there, the five maids heard the snorting of a wild boar on the left and the howl of a wolf on the right.
One was frightened, stunned and refused to move forward.
Lin Guyu's gaze swept over their faces, and then he said coldly, "Give you a chance to go to the yard with six wild boars." โ
Wild boar, that's not a domestic boar.
The five maids were so frightened that they stood still and did not dare to move.
Seeing that they were reluctant to go in, Lin Guyu said with some disappointment, pointed to the courtyard next to him, and said lightly, "You can also enter the courtyard next to it." โ
"Whew!"
The wolf's howl came from the courtyard next to it, and the five maids stood in place with their legs weak, and if it weren't for supporting each other, they would have fallen to the ground one by one.
"Why didn't you go in?" Lin Gu Yufeng asked lightly, with a cold smile on the corner of his lips, "I have chosen for you, one is a yard with six wild boars, and the other is a yard with two wolves, you can choose one to go in!" โ
The five maids heard what Lin Guyu said clearly, and they were so frightened that their legs fell to the ground weakly, let alone going in, now they can't stand up.
"Since there's no one, let's go back!" Lin Guyu glanced at the five maids in disappointment and left directly with them.
But no one dares to go in, they have to be scared, what's the use of asking for such a maid?
Waiting for everyone to return to Lin Guyu's courtyard, Lin Guyu saw that the small painting had not returned, and glanced at everyone coldly.
"No one can pass the test of the big girl, so don't think about being a big girl." Lin Guyu said lightly, "The master's orders can't be carried out to the death, what do I want a maid like you to do?" โ
Lin Guyu had a few good second-class maids around her, and those maids were not bad, and she put them next to a few children.
The crowd bowed their heads, and not one dared to speak.
In fact, when Xiaoyu saw the wild boar, she vaguely knew Lin Guyu's intentions in her heart, but she was still afraid that she would be injured and didn't dare to go in.
"My eldest maid, they are all able to gamble their lives and obey my orders, don't say anything if you can't do it," Lin Guyu said, his eyes swept over everyone's body, "Even if I let Xiaohua go to the wolves, she will go in without blinking her eyelids, and she won't be like you, one by one, she can't stand up." How much have you paid, I know very well in my heart, to be able to climb to the position of the big girl, I have never looked at her ability to do things, nor her character, I look at her loyalty, which of you do you think can do it? โ
