Chapter 542: Shame on oneself

After a pause, she shook her head again and said, "Besides, the concubine is a thing in the rich family, and the housewife wants to punish her, and the people don't regard her as the master." Even the children born to themselves can't be called their own mothers, they can only be called 'aunts'...... I can't figure it out, why are there still people rushing to be concubines? Sister Huifang, did you say? ”

Liu. Huifang saw that Zheng Xiaocui's face was getting more and more ugly, and remembered that she said behind her back in the village that she had seduced Yu Hang, and grinned and agreed: "It's not!" Marrying into an ordinary family, although you are poor and tired, you can live with dignity and freedom. I heard that concubines sometimes don't even have the status of a powerful maid, so why rush to be a slave for others? ”

Zheng Xiaocui can't wait to shred Liu. Huifang has a smug face, standing and talking without backache, if Yu Hang is snatched by herself, will she still say that? It's a pity that Yu Hang's guy is a piece of wood, and every time she is attentive, she shows the blind man!

However, this is not the time to be angry with that slut, Zheng Xiaocui squeezed out a reluctant smile and asked with a little curiosity: "Xiaocao, what is the capital like?" Is it fun? I've only been to the town as far as I've ever been. Isn't the capital much bigger than the town? ”

Xiaocao didn't want to pay attention to her very much, and wanted to say a few perfunctory words casually, but seeing that Sister Huifang also had curiosity in her eyes, she picked up a few representative ones about the prosperity and liveliness of the Great Imperial City and told them.

Zheng Xiaocui showed a longing expression and muttered: "If I have the opportunity to walk on the streets of the Imperial City, I will die without regrets in this life...... Xiaocao, you have been promoted to the county lord, is the house in the family going to be changed? Is there a shortage of maids, do you think I can do it? ”

In her opinion, Erya is so stupid and stupid, she can be bought back by the Xiaocao family, she is smart and dexterous, and she is also quick to do things, and she can still be a maid.

Wutong, who had sorted out the gifts and luggage, entered the house at this time, looked her up and down when he heard the words, and then sneered and said, "Just like you? It's not enough to be a rough girl in our house! ”

Xiaocao doesn't take her seriously, and a subordinate dares to ridicule her easily, a sense of humiliation rises from the bottom of her heart, Zheng Xiaocui is so angry that her neck is red: "Xiaocao, you don't care about this minion!" ”

Yu Xiaocao thought about the last emotion between the villagers, and only said Wutong lightly, and said: "Xiaocui, the maids and servants in the house are all managed by her and another girl, Loquat, at first glance, she took it seriously." This girl is straightforward, don't take it to heart. ”

As soon as Wutong's words came out, he regretted it a little. After all, he is a guest, although he has never heard Miss mention it before, he may still have some friendship when he comes back to visit as soon as Miss returns. After listening to Miss's words, seeing that Miss did not reprimand herself, but spoke for herself in and out of words, she put her heart back in her stomach - this little girl is not to be seen by Miss!

Wutong hurriedly followed Miss's words and apologized with a smile: "I'm sorry, Miss Xiaocui, it turns out that you are joking!" In fact, what the slave maid said just now is not wrong, everyone in Beijing who has a little status chooses maids from the official teeth. There, an ordinary little girl has to go through two or three years of adjustment. Teach. The maids in our house are all top-notch inside. As a joke, if you really want to enter our house, you will have to sell yourself to the official dental school for a few years. However, the official tooth is not accepted by just anyone, a little girl about ten years old. Teaching for two years is just going to work. What are you...... To be honest, I'm getting older, and I haven't used it yet, so I'm going to be released to marry again. Generally, people will choose a younger one. ”

Zheng Xiaocui was so angry that her tears were about to come out, and she shouted angrily at Xiaocao: "Yu Xiaocao, don't think that you are the county lord, you can abuse others casually!" Don't forget, you were also poor and couldn't eat enough at the beginning, but now that you are rich and powerful, you can look down on your friends who grew up together? I didn't expect you Yu Xiaocao to be such a person!! ”

"Shut up! Shout at whom? Wutong's face changed, with a bit of majesty, and he said sharply, "It was you who said that you wanted to enter the mansion as a maid, so I kindly told you about the situation in the mansion!" If you don't like to hear it, you can come to me and yell at our county lord? It is also our master who cares about the friendship of the villagers, otherwise, a person like you who is rude to the county lord would have been pulled out to play the board a long time ago!! ”

"Good! You fight, you fight!! Let the villagers see how you humiliated and abused your friends after Yu Xiaocao developed. I misread you!! Zheng Xiaocui was a little timid in her heart, and she threw down a sentence inwardly and was about to leave.

"Stop!!" Yu Xiaocao picked up a cup of fragrant tea with an indifferent face, put it to his lips and took a small sip, and gently dipped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, without any ups and downs in his voice, "Zheng Xiaocui, when I was a child, I went out with you to dig wild vegetables and pick up seafood, but this is all for Sister Huifang's face." At the beginning, you went to the side of King Yang Jun much more often than you appeared in front of me. So, with the word friend, you don't have to put gold on your face! ”

Xiaocao, who has always been easy-going and smiling, restrained the smile on her face, and suddenly became unfamiliar. The nobility and momentum exuded by her body made people look up to her. Huifang's breathing couldn't help but lighten up, and her heart contracted for a while.

The sunlight shone through the glass window, shining on her body, as if gilded with a circle of gold, dazzling like a god, making people dare not look directly. The majesty from the inside out, the gaze that they didn't dare to force, all told them that the girl in front of them was no longer within their reach.

"Besides, you recommended yourself to be a maid in our house, and you can't stand the slightest test. With your attitude and temper, I don't dare to invite you even for the sake of the face of the villagers. What I need is a loyal, obedient, and capable girl, not a young lady to go back and provide for me! Yu Xiaocao said a word, and regarded the difficulty of Wutong just now as a test of character.

Zheng Xiaocui took a breath and mustered up the last courage to fight: "Okay, it was me who was wrong just now!" I'm just not angry with the maids around you, they can trample on my dignity at will......"

"Dignity? I don't think you've figured out where you are. A subordinate has no dignity in front of his master. When the master dismounts and gets out of the carriage, he uses his back as a pedal; When the master's shoes were dirty, he knelt on the ground and wiped them clean; There was a little mistake, and he was stripped of his pants and hit the board in public...... These actions, which do not seem to you to have 'dignity', are all within the scope of slaves! Zheng Xiaocui, if you want dignity, don't easily say that you are a slave! ”

Yu Xiaocao picked up a hazelnut and handed it to Chunhua, who heard Zheng Xiaocui's shouting and came in to protect the lord. Zheng Xiaocui was stunned for a moment - the maid who looked thin and weak, pinched it lightly with her hand, and the hard hazelnut shell cracked.

Xiaocao put the hazelnuts peeled by Chunhua in her mouth, puffed out her mouth and ate them like a little squirrel. She loves fragrant nuts the most, but she doesn't like to peel them. In the past, when Zhu Junyang was by his side, this task belonged to him.

"Thirsty...... Wutong, soak the big red robe rewarded by the queen's mother, soak a pot and bring it to Sister Huifang to taste! After eating a few hazelnuts, Yu Xiaocao suddenly opened his mouth and commanded.

"Yes!" Sycamore bowed obediently and left the room backwards. After all, she has been a master and servant for many years, and she can immediately understand what the master thinks in his heart.

Wutong took a complete set of kung fu tea, the action was elegant and smooth, washing tea, brewing, sealing the pot, dividing the pot, and serving the tea smoothly...... Coupled with the incomparable aroma of tea, it lingers in the nose and gives people supreme enjoyment.

Qiu Shi brought the guzheng, and in the corner of the room, he played lightly, and the elegant and soft sound of the piano filled the indoor space. Yingchun took the incense burner and mixed the lady's favorite elegant lotus incense......

"Sister Huifang, try it. This top Da Hong Pao, produced from a century-old tea tree on the cliff of Wuyi Mountain, has a rich aroma with orchid fragrance, high and long-lasting. This old tea tree, which only produces two or three catties of tea a year, is all paid tribute to the palace, and it is difficult for others to taste it! Yu Xiaocao picked up a teacup with three fingers, lowered his head and sniffed the lingering fragrance in the cup, and drank it slowly in three sips.

Qianqian's hands are as white as jade, and the gentleness of bowing her head adds a little beauty to the fairy-like person. Liu. Huifang was so stunned that she forgot to take the fragrant tea offered by Wutong.

Looking at Yu Xiaocao, who was surrounded by four maids, Zheng Xiaocui couldn't give birth to the slightest jealousy and unwillingness. When that person's identity and status are so different from her own that she can never reach it, she can only stand in the distance and watch with awe and envy, and she dare not have any other thoughts.

As for being a maid for Xiaocao, Zheng Xiaocui was not embarrassed to open her mouth to mention it again. Maybe at this time, she has agreed with what Wutong said in her heart, in front of the four maids, she is nothing, maybe the maid who does rough work in other people's houses is not something she can do.

The maids around Xiaocao, regardless of their appearance and bearing, are more advanced and elegant than the so-called ladies in the town. And such a person is willing to serve Xiaocao and sincerely treat her as the master. At this time, she realized that Xiaocao was no longer the same Xiaocao as before!

However, if she didn't fight, she would be sold to an old man older than her grandfather as a concubine. Zheng Xiaocui clenched her hands and definitely made the last struggle, this time she didn't think carefully, but directly told Xiaocao about her current situation, hoping that she could show her direction.

With tears in her eyes, Zheng Xiaocui shook her head slowly and said, "My father is only thinking about selling me now, saving money for my younger brother to marry a daughter-in-law and earn a family business." Unless I raise the equivalent of silver, I will have no choice but to marry an old man who is almost sixty years old and be his twelfth aunt. ”

I didn't expect Zheng Laojiu to be such a person! Yu Xiaocao frowned lightly, sighed, and said, "In this matter, there is only so much that others can help, and you have to rely on yourself." ”
