Huilan's face flushed: "The girl is just talking, and Madame is still up to her..."

Duan Niang shook her head: "You are about to enter the mansion, and I am not afraid of your jokes." Our lady, as long as she doesn't step on her head, she doesn't care about anything, it's good if nothing happens every day, but every little movement will make her unhappy... You've been guarding the garden this afternoon, haven't you seen anything yet? ”

The corners of Huilan's mouth twitched slightly, and she stopped talking.

"It's placed! Swing! Duan Niang sighed over there, "No matter what, I'm just a subordinate, not to mention, I'm going to my hometown in Shuzhou soon..."

"Ahh Huilan exclaimed, "Auntie, why does my aunt want to go back to her hometown..."

Duanniang smiled bitterly: "I was waiting beside Mrs. Tai, and when Mrs. Tai drove the crane west, she released a few girls in the house. I married into the house, and then my husband died, and the child died, and even my wife took pity on me and had nowhere to go, so I let me be a nurse for the second girl... After so many years, I am worthy of Mrs. Lian. Now I have a small amount of savings in my hand, and I just want to go... Don't worry about all this mess in the girl's house! Speaking of which, the tone was embarrassed.

Whelan smiled: "Isn't there someone in the girl's house?" ”

Duan Niang said with a smile: "The grandmother who accompanies the room has something in the house, and the girl said that she should not have a girl, so just add one or two to serve by her side." ”

Huilan's eyes flickered: "The girl asked Xinghong and Moju if they were willing to leave the house." Although it is said that it is a girl, it is better than the food and clothing of ordinary ladies outside..."

Duan Niang was stunned and said, "Ouch, it's still right that you reminded me." Two girls there, I haven't asked yet! ”

As she was talking, the corners of Mo Ju's lotus-colored clothes flashed in front of the small kitchen, and Duan Niang stopped her: "Mo Ju, why are you outside." Who's waiting in front of the girl? ”

Mo Ju came in and said, "The girl asked me to come out." said he wanted to talk to Xinghong. ”

Huilan gave Duan Niang a look, and Duan Niang nodded slightly. smiled and said to Mo Ju: "Mo Ju, your sister Huilan is about to come into the mansion to be your companion." I'm not an outsider..."

When Mo Ju heard that Hui Lan was coming into the mansion, she smiled at Hui Lan kindly, and was about to say something, Duan Niang continued: "I have a question for you, you want to answer me carefully." When Mo Ju heard this, she suddenly became serious again, hurriedly restrained her smile, and said respectfully: "Auntie, please command!" ”

Duan Niang hesitated for a moment. said: "Mo Ju, you also know the girl's current situation, just wait for the decision to get married." I also have to make preparations first, I ask you, what are you going to do? ”

Mo Ju knew that she was asking for Gu Xiyan. Bow your head and say nothing.

Duan Niang said: "If you haven't thought about it for a while, you can talk back in two days, or you are embarrassed to tell me, just talk to the girl." After speaking, he said to Huilan: "We have also been out for a while, let's go back to the house and wait, lest the girl and Xinghong can't find anyone after they finish speaking." ”

Huilan answered, picked up the lacquer plate, and was about to appear with Duanniang. Mo Ju grabbed Duan Niang's sleeve: "Auntie, I think, I want to beg the girl to let me out." After speaking, he looked at Duanniang with blank eyes.

Duan Niang was overjoyed, she really gave the girl the right material. Naturally, he was even more convinced of Gu Xiyan's instructions. Hurriedly sighed as Gu Xiyan commanded. He said, "You really thought of going with the girl, and the girl meant the same thing." ”

Mo Ju put her mind at ease. His face was full of joy, and he shone a delicate little face as bright as a flower, and said: "The girl is kind to me, I remember, I will never let the girl go to her husband's house alone, and when the girl is married, I will serve the girl for a few more years, and it will not be too late to ask for this grace." ”

Duan Niang touched Mo Ju's head with relief: "Good girl, it's not a shame that the girl hurt you once." ”

Whelan was thoughtful.

Several people brought mung bean soup floating with ice cubes to the main house, and waited for a while before Gu Xiyan finished talking to Xinghong, and when they entered the house, Xinghong was standing there with a red face. Duanniang and the others all pretended not to pay attention, and only went to wait for Gu Xiyan to drink mung bean soup. Gu Xiyan doesn't have so many concepts of respect and inferiority, and has always treated Duanniang as an elder, and chilled mung bean soup is very rare in this era. Mo Ju gave Gu Xiyan a bowl, Gu Xiyan asked her to give it to Duan Niang first, and then took the second bowl herself, and Mo Ju, Xinghong and Huilan also shared a bowl each.

When women are together, how can there be no one who doesn't speak. Several people gathered together to drink iced mung bean soup while chatting, and the atmosphere was harmonious. After drinking the mung bean soup, Whelan rushed to clean up the dishes and took Xinghong to clean it together. Duan Niang sat for a while, got up and said that she was going to see how dinner went, Mo Ju hurriedly got up: "Auntie still accompany the girl to talk, I'll go and carry the food box." ”

Duan Niang refused, Gu Xiyan didn't stand in the way, Mo Ju had to let Duan Niang go.

As soon as Duan Niang left, Gu Xiyan asked her, "How is the matter with Liu Ting?" ”

Mo Ju said: "Aunt Qin asked me to compensate the girl on her behalf, saying that I would go to find a house in the next two days." ”

This was expected, and Gu Xiyan asked again: "What happened to their account man?" ”

Mo Juqi said: "How does the girl know that something happened to Aunt Qin's uncle?" ”

Gu Xiyan only asked casually, wanting to find out some news, but he didn't expect that the crooked hit was correct. As soon as Mo Ju's words fell, her face suddenly turned snow-white: "Out, what's wrong?" ”

"Look at what the girl is worried about." Mo Ju said with a smile: "Auntie didn't say anything, but when I came back, I faintly heard the apprentices of Auntie Di muttering, saying that their account master had rolled up the silver taels of the immortal class and disappeared, and Auntie had no choice, so she refused to move away..."

Gu Xiyan just lowered his head and pondered.

Mo Ju saw Gu Xiyan's face uncertain, and watched from the side and cautiously did not dare to speak.

After a long while, Gu Xiyan raised his head, and his spirit was in a trance.

The two of them sat opposite each other for a while, and when they heard a light footstep approaching, Huilan and Xinghong came in with a smile. When they entered the house, they saw Gu Xiyan and Mo Ju confronting each other silently, and they were all stunned. Huilan stepped forward with a smile and said, "What's wrong with the girl, but Mo Ju made the girl angry, the girl has to take care of herself..."

Mo Ju raised the corners of her eyebrows when she heard this, and looked at Gu Xiyan.

Gu Xiyan smiled energetically and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the spirit is not very good!" ”

Huilan hurriedly instructed Xinghong: "It's too hot. Give the girl a fan! ”

Xinghong went in response, and found a banana fan to fan Gu Xiyan. Whelan blocked: "It's not noon, find a fan, be careful to cool the girl." Xinghong hurriedly put away the banana fan and found a silk fan. Huilan took it in his hand and sat on the edge of the bed string to fan Gu Xiyan.

"I see that the lotus flowers in Yuanxiang Lake are blooming well, and they are all small lotus flowers, if the girl is bored, it is better to get up early tomorrow morning and take a boat to pick lotus flowers." Huilan shook the fan for Gu Xiyan while chatting with her, "If you want to talk about Heqing." The best thing is that in the early morning, when the sun shines, the lotus flowers bloom again and again, and the fragrance fills the courtyard, which is a rare scenery..."

"Really?" Gu Xiyan replied with a smile. "I rarely saw lotus flowers before, let alone enjoy lotus" Then tomorrow I will accompany the girl to the Yuanxiang Lake to see..."

Under the affection of Wland, Gu Xiyan gradually showed a gentle smile.

Mo Ju watched from the side, gently pulled the corner of Xinghong's clothes, and the two crept out of the door, standing under the eaves and whispering.

"Duan Niang asked me what I meant, and I said that I wanted to wait for the girl for a few years and let the girl let me out of the house. How do you talk to the girl? ”

Xinghong said: "I said that it will be arranged with the girl." ”

Mo Ju nodded and said, "Let's be together then!" ”

Xinghong hesitated: "Huilan said, let me stay with her with the girl." said that the outside world is not good. In a place like ours, even if we go out of the house, it is inevitable that people will gossip, so it is better to sit down and serve by my uncle's side..."

Mo Ju said gloomily: "But being a concubine is always bad..."

Xinghong lowered her head. Blushing: "Whelan said." If you can give birth to a son, it will be the same..."

Mo Ju was stunned when she heard this. hurriedly said: "Don't listen to her nonsense, being a concubine, even if you give birth to a son, you are also the main mother, where is your turn to be disciplined by your aunts..."

Xinghong interrupted Mo Ju's words: "But Huilan said that if she gets the favor of her master, her mother will have nothing to say..."

Mo Ju sweated on her forehead when she heard this: "Don't be stupid, don't you still want to go past the girl!" ”

Xinghong bowed her head and was silent, the meaning was already very obvious.

Mo Ju jumped straight to her feet: "You won't be with this Huilan in the future, she is not a good person..."

Xinghong rubbed the embroidered shoes under her feet, but she shouldn't speak.

Mo Ju looked at Xinghong in surprise, as if she was a stranger in front of her, and after a while, she smiled bitterly: "Also, everyone has their own plans." But you also have to have a heart, and be careful of being used by Whelan... You see the posture of Huilan serving the girl today, where have we treated the girl like this, and what did the girl mention besides... Xinghong, not everyone is as good-tempered as a girl..."

Xinghong looked up and replied to Mo Ju: "The girl is a human, and we are not human." In terms of appearance, the girl is not much higher than us... I also have to plan for myself..."There was unwillingness in his eyes.

Mo Ju stammered, unable to say a word.

Xinghong changed her previous docile and glared at Mo Ju without flinching.

When the two of them were tense, Duan Niang's shout came from behind them: "What are the two of you doing standing there, don't come to help!" ”

Mo Ju glanced at Xinghong helplessly, and hurriedly ran to help Duanniang carry the food box.

That night, Huilan stayed in Beyuan, and it was supposed to be Xinghong on duty, but Xinghong said that she had a headache and wanted to exchange with Moju for a night. Usually, Gu Xiyan is not very particular about these things, and sometimes he doesn't want them to be on duty at all. Hearing Xinghong say this, she said, "Then don't be on duty, let's go to sleep!" Xinghong rarely insisted, and she had to ask Mo Ju to be on duty for her. Gu Xiyan nodded indifferently and agreed. Mo Ju was still thinking about what she said to Xinghong this afternoon, and wanted to persuade Xinghong again, but Xinghong had been with Huilan all the time, and she didn't find a chance until Gu Xiyan was about to rest.
