Rong Hua wanted Jinxiu to make a cup of tea, and just called Jinxiu's name, Jinxiu's whole person suddenly trembled, and accidentally pricked the embroidery needle on his finger.

Mu Hibiscus exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly looked at Jinxiu's fingers, but Jinxiu felt no pain as if she had lost her soul, and watched in a daze as a drop of blood gradually oozed from her fingertips.

Rong Hua glanced at Jinxiu deeply, "What's wrong today?" ”

Jinxiu shook her head and smiled uncomfortably, "It's nothing, I thought about it just now, so I ......"

Rong Hua asked patiently, "Is there something going on at home?" ”

Jinxiu shook her head again, "No." ”

Rong Hua nodded, "If there is any difficulty at home, tell me." As he spoke, he put away the needle and thread in his hand, got down from the soft couch, and asked the hibiscus to call the maid to come and unload his hair.

Suddenly remembered something, Rong Hua looked at Jinxiu from the mirror, Jinxiu's face was illuminated by candlelight in the mirror, and his appearance changed, "I'll go to my mother to talk about it these days, since you are already a second-class maid in my place, the monthly rate should also rise." ”

When Jinxiu heard this, he hurriedly came over and thanked Rong Hua.

Rong Hua smiled, Jin Xiu went to make Rong Hua's bed, and served Rong Hua without mentioning it.

Who knew that as soon as Rong Hua finished speaking, the next day, the mother-in-law in charge of the house came to find Jinxiu, "The girl was in the wife's room before, and she sent a monthly example of a third-class maid, and now you have arrived at Miss Eight, and when you were transferred, she said that it was a second-class maid, so the monthly case will also rise for you, the eldest lady said, it is not easy for your family, and last month's monthly case will also be made up for you." As he spoke, he handed the money to Jinxiu.

Jinxiu thought that Miss Eight must have told the eldest lady, smiled and put away the money and sent the housekeeper away, and was just about to enter the house when she was stopped.

Jinxiu turned her head to see that Chu Xiao walked over from the bamboo forest.

Chu Xiao took a few steps forward with a smile, blinked his eyes, and seemed to point, "Jinxiu, your monthly price has risen, right?" Last month's monthly routine should also be made up to you. ”

Jinxiu was shocked, only to know that it was the second miss.

After Chu Xiao left, Jinxiu felt even more uneasy, and spent the morning messing around, and in the afternoon, Jinxiu's sister-in-law came to her again, "Daddy's illness is much better, it was the second lady who asked Langzhong to go to see the house, and your brother also worked in the house." ”

Jinxiu's heart fluttered, "Brother's work outside is not done?" ”

Jinxiu's sister-in-law smiled, "If you don't do it, you won't be able to make a lot of money anyway." ”

Jinxiu spoke with difficulty after half a sound, "If you don't do the work outside, if you don't need you in the house in the future, how will the family live?" ”

Jinxiu's sister-in-law was stunned for a moment, and her face changed suddenly, but when she looked at Jinxiu, she laughed again, "The girl is already a second-class maid in Miss Eight's house, what am I afraid of, besides, these jobs are all found with the help of Miss Two, and I am afraid that who will be able to come to the top." After speaking, he stuffed something to Jinxiu and asked Jinxiu to thank the second miss.

Jinxiu thought about it for a long time, and then took something to the second lady's residence, Chu Xiaoying came out and looked at the things in her hand and smiled, "The second miss said last time, the girl doesn't have to be so polite, this time the girl brought something again, I won't help you pass it on." As he spoke, his eyes sank and he smiled, "The second lady said that I accepted your gift, and she wants to complain about me, I am tired and not pleased." ”

Jinxiu was about to say something nice to coax Chu Xiao.

Chu Xiao's eyes flashed, "This time, you can send it in yourself!" ”

Jinxiu followed Chu Xiao into the second lady's room, as soon as she entered the door, Jinxiu smelled a scent of ink, and there were light green glass curtains hanging outside the warm pavilion, and there were a few Jin Ling on them, which were jingled by the wind.

Jinxiu thought that Chu Xiao was going to lead her into the warm pavilion, but who knew that Chu Xiao smiled and said: "The second lady has been well recently, and now she is writing outside." ”

Jinxiu followed Chu Xiao over to see.

The second lady was sitting at the desk, holding a pen and writing something.

Jinxiu is still the first time to come to Yaohua's house, there is a treasure inkstone on Yaohua's desk, there are various pens in the sea of pens, and there is an ink painting hanging on the wall behind the desk.

The second lady finished writing the notebook in front of her, then she raised her head, and when she saw Jinxiu, she immediately put down her pen and smiled kindly, "Jinxiu is here." ”

Jinxiu hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "I'm disturbing the second lady to write." ”

The second lady turned her head to look at the calligraphy on the table, "It's just copying the Book of Filial Piety." ”

Although the second miss said it easily, Jinxiu couldn't help but have a knot in her heart, what is the second miss reminding her?

Jinxiu blessed her body, "Jinxiu thank the second lady for taking care of the family, especially my father, sister-in-law has already told me, if the second miss hadn't sent Lang Zhong, there would be no hope for my father's illness." ”

The second lady smiled: "Where is this, I was born in this kind of family, and I have this body of illness, I only stay in the house on weekdays, I hear that you have any difficulties, I will help if I can, that is, a few sisters and you personal girls, I can't care about others." ”

"You are doing things in the house, don't you just ask for a better life at home, so that you can be regarded as fulfilling your children's responsibilities," the second lady's eyes were clear, and her smile made people feel like a spring breeze, "If you have any difficulties in the future, come to me, and never see me again." ”

The second lady and Jinxiu chatted for a while, and they were all innocuous words.

However, when Chu Xiao sent Jinxiu out, he said a lot of things, Chu Xiao is not young, if he hadn't been sold to the house as a maid, he would have married a long time ago.

"Maids like us, although they are now serving by their master's side, will have a place to go sooner or later."

The maids in the house are all sold death deeds, and everything will be left to the master in the future.

There was a thick haze in Chu Xiaomeiyu, "Do you remember Ziying in the second room?" ”

When Chu Xiao said this, Jinxiu seemed to have an impression.

Ziying in the second room, "Is it the eldest girl of the second room and the second master?" ”

Chu Xiao said: "Not really. The girl couldn't leave her because of the second master, and there was no second wife in her eyes, so she was sold by the second wife to find a tooth wife. ”

Jinxiu couldn't help but be shocked.

"It's good to be expelled from the mansion, let Ya Po sell it, then it's ......" Chu Xiao said again: "Ziying looks like a very clever girl, why can't you figure out who is in charge of this mansion, and she is so muddy." ”

When Jinxiu heard this, her face had already changed, her mind seemed to be heavy, and her eyes were scattered and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Chu Xiao pointed to the pavilion next to him and said with a smile: "Let's go sit over there!" ”

Jinxiu and Chu Xiao sat down, and Chu Xiao asked tentatively, "How is Miss Eight treating you?" ”

Jinxiu nodded, "Miss Eight is kind to people and never embarrassed people. ”

Chu Xiao smiled slightly, "Recently, there have been so many rumors in the mansion, saying that someone from Wang Shangshu's family came to propose marriage, and there was no movement from Miss Eight?" ”

After thinking about it, Jinxiu tightened her handkerchief and said with difficulty, "Good sister, I am in such a situation now, there are some things I can't say." I only want to say one word to my sister, Miss Eight is going to marry into the Yicheng Marquis Mansion. ”

Chu Xiao was taken aback.

After a while, Jinxiu returned to Miss Eight, and Chu Xiao also returned to Miss Two's house.

Chu Xiao entered the house and sent the other maids down, and whispered in the second miss's ear: "Miss guessed right, this eighth lady is really going to the Yicheng Marquis Mansion, otherwise how would Jinxiu know so clearly." As he spoke, he repeated Jinxiu's words as they were.

Listening to Chu Xiao's words, Yaohua's eyes couldn't help but change.

"If you really marry the Hou Mansion in the future, I don't know what tricks I have to play......"

Yao Hua couldn't listen to Chu Xiao's words, Eighth Miss Ronghua, if she really marries Zhao Xuanhuan in the future, if she doesn't say anything else, at least her name is enough to remind Zhao Xuanhuan of the past, although this person is not the other person, it is inevitable to empathize a little and love more.

Shuhua and Zhao Xuanhuan are already inseparable on weekdays, and the emotional sustenance in Zhao Xuanhuan's heart may fall on Miss Eight and achieve a good marriage that is envied by outsiders.

The maid brought the medicinal soup, Yaohua shook her hand and didn't drink it, Chu Xiao took the medicinal soup, asked the maid to retreat, and persuaded on the side: "Miss don't have to think too much, as long as you take care of your body, Miss Eight is just a concubine, and that's how she tosses." ”

Yaohua sighed, "You think I'm worried about myself? I've been sick all these years, but I still have to worry about things in the house, nothing more than ......," he coughed as he spoke.

Chu Xiao hurriedly put down the medicine and patted Yaohua on the back.

"I'm worried about the eldest sister, afraid that the candidate chosen by my mother will not be able to hold back in the future. It's just that I'm cured of this illness, and if it's not good, it's probably only a few years, and it doesn't matter if I can't put it down or not. ”

Chu Xiao became anxious, "Miss, Miss, you can't say that, as long as Miss has a good rest, this disease will definitely be fine." ”

Yaohua took a few breaths and half-lay down, "Last time you told me, let me help the sixth sister talk, I actually agree with the sixth sister very much, although the sixth sister is a little pampered on weekdays, but there is nothing in her heart, and she has been under her mother's knees for so many years, she always understands, unlike the eighth sister who has newly entered the house, and her mother is a little anxious about this." ”

Chu Xiao said again and again: "What Miss said is true, but it is already like this now." ”

Yaohua sighed, drank the medicine, and then lay down.

After a while, the eldest lady took Dongrui to see Yaohua, and the eldest lady had just arrived at the door, and Chu Xiao hurriedly greeted her.

The eldest lady saw that Chu Xiao's face was not as happy as these days, so she asked, "How is today?" ”

Chu Xiao replied truthfully, "I haven't eaten anything, I've been lying down at noon today, and I haven't gotten up yet." ”

The eldest lady's face changed, "It's okay, it wasn't okay yesterday, what's wrong today?" ”

Chu Xiao wanted to speak, but Yaohua woke up, "Is my mother here?" ”

Chu Xiao's words were forced back, the eldest lady's eyes sank, and she already knew in her heart, and then she looked away and resumed her usual smile, and went into the house.

The eldest lady knew that Yaohua's illness needed more rest, but now looking at Yaohua's appearance, the corners of her eyes were red, her brows were slightly frowned, her face was as colorful as snow, and she was tired, so she knew that although she had been lying down for a long time, she must not have fallen asleep.

The eldest lady smiled, "How do you feel about drinking the medicine today?" Is it better than usual? ”

Yaohua smiled slightly, "It's better." He didn't say anything else, and after thinking about it for a long time, he asked worriedly, "How is the eldest sister?" Did my mother send someone to the Hou Mansion to ask again? Did the Qiuhetuo people around you come back with a letter? ”

The eldest lady knew that Yaohua was worried about Shuhua's situation, but it was inconvenient for her to worry too much, so she hurriedly said: "Yes, all of them, your eldest sister is just raising it, and it will be fine after a while, I didn't want to tell you these things, but I was afraid that I would bother after you knew about it." ”

Yaohua nodded, "Mother said this, and I was relieved." After saying this, he wanted to say and stopped, and several times it seemed like he had something to say.

The eldest lady looked at Yaohua frowning, and couldn't help but feel distressed when she wanted to speak, and persuaded Yaohua, "It's better to focus on your own body." And then he left.

When he returned to the house, he asked Chen's mother to call Chu Xiao from Yaohua's side over and ask.

Chu Xiao didn't want to say it, the second lady had already confessed, and it was not easy to say this.

The eldest lady asked sharply again, "What is there to say?" ”

Chu Xiao hesitated and was about to speak.

Dong Rui came in and said, "Madam, Miss Eight is here." ”
