Early in the morning of the second day, the housekeeper Yu came to Meiyuan and said that there was a little girl about 12 years old outside the house who bluntly said that she wanted to see the third lady. Seeing that she was dressed in a dirty dress, the guards didn't drive away after several times.

Gu Qing was sleepy-eyed, sitting in front of the bronze mirror and letting Ah Huan toss his hair, after hearing Butler Yu's words, he yawned and said vaguely: "Bring her in and I'll take a look." ”

"Yes, miss. ”

It is indeed a twelve-year-old girl, especially the immature little face is cold, and the clothes on her body are full of patches of all sizes. Her eyes were very good-looking, blinking, and she was not afraid of Gu Qing.

"Little girl, have you eaten?" I had a good impression of her when we first met, so I didn't have to ask, and I left her for breakfast as soon as I opened my mouth.

"I don't have any money...... So didn't eat. The girl pursed her lips and swallowed as she looked at the fragrant food on the table.

Children are the most real, and their expressions do not deceive.

Gu Qing asked again: "What about your parents, do they care about you?"

The girl retracted her gaze and replied a little lonely, "I don't have parents, right...... Orphan. However, I was helped by my neighbor, Sister Zi, who often gave me food and silver. ”

Ah Zi? Gu Qing understood now, she said that she wanted to recruit a personal maid, she originally wanted Ah Zi to come to Gu Mansion, but she never thought that she would arrange a little girl to come over.

Seeing that this little girl looked white and tender, and some dust on her face seemed to be smeared on purpose, so she continued to ask: "Why did Ah Zi let you come?"

The little girl pouted and thought for a long time: "I don't know either." After I was rescued from Du Mansion, it seems that everyone looks at me differently, plus I am an orphan, I am afraid that no one will like me. ”

The sound gets quieter and quieter to the back.

She was one of the many women who were rescued from Du's house.

Unexpectedly, she was only twelve years old, and she also suffered from the scourge of Old Man Du.

finally understood why Ah Zi did this, compared to her, maybe the ignorant little girl in front of her needed to escape from the original environment.

I couldn't help but feel a little more pity in my heart.

"Sister Ah Zi said that your family wants to recruit maids, so she wants me to come to you. You say, doesn't she want me anymore. The girl looked at Gu Qing with wide eyes and said.

Gu Qing smiled, "How could it be? How could Ah Zi not want you? I guess, it's because you're not too young, you can't eat and drink with her all your life, right? Since you're older, you can earn your own money to support yourself, right?"

The little girl nodded thoughtfully, she didn't understand the complex society at all, and no one had taught her since she was a child, if she didn't have Ah Zi by her side, she probably wouldn't even know what the menstrual affair was.

"Would you like to stay with me? Well, I think about it, I'm only four or five years older than you, and you can call me sister. Gu Qing tilted her head, thinking that she had suffered from the inhuman treatment of Du Fu at a young age, she had mixed feelings in her heart, and she didn't know what to say.

I am a Buddha with compassion. Although she is not a person who is dedicated to pure Buddhism, at this moment, she also wants to be a good person.

"Can I go home to see Sister Zi in the future?" the girl asked.

"Absolutely. If you follow me to do things, I will give you a monthly money, which is silver, and you can also use it to buy things you like. ”

"Wow, really? I was orphaned when I was seven years old, and I haven't seen silver since. She jumped up with joy.

"You will call me Sister Xiaoqing in the future, what about you, what is your name?"

"My name is Crescent Moon. ”

Seeing her grin suddenly, a pair of eyes were really as crooked as a crescent moon.

"The name is so nice, then, from now on, you will be from my Gu Mansion. Gu Qing announced, and then introduced Ah Huan to her on the side, "She's Ah Huan, well, let's call her aunt." ”

"Aunt Huan is good. Crescent called obediently.

Ah Huan is not satisfied, she is obviously still young, okay? Why is she an aunt of others? But then again, after having a crescent moon, she is no longer the only maid in the Mei Courtyard, and she can be regarded as a little follower.

After breakfast, Ah Huan arranged the crescent moon's residence, and took her out to buy a few beautiful clothes, and by the way, she became familiar with the environment in the house.

The crescent moon did not expect that one day she would enter the house of the big family, although she was a maid, but she was already very satisfied, it was better than living in a low hut that could not shelter from the wind and rain.

Ah Zi sympathized with her, so she was willing to share her food and silver, but after all, they were two families, and every family had scriptures that were difficult to read, and Ah Zi's family was poor and couldn't adopt her, so it was not a good way to go on like this for a long time.

So after Gu Qing gave her a chance that day, she thought about settling the crescent moon first, she couldn't protect her for the rest of her life.

The Prime Minister's Mansion asked someone to come with a message and invited Gu Qing to sit in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

After hearing the news, Gu Qing was still very surprised, was it Murong's meaning, why did he want to invite her for no reason?

Yu Niang is a little happy, it is said that the prime minister is a talent, and he is the pillar of the court, and I don't know how many children in the capital admire him. Now that the position of Mrs. Xiangfu is still hanging, Qing'er is fortunate to be invited by him, maybe there are some small sprouts between the two.

Before stepping out of the threshold, someone spread the word that Prime Minister Murong was at the Prime Minister's Mansion to entertain Miss Gu Fusan. It's just an ordinary little thing, but when the market communicates with each other, the meaning of the words changes.

So much so that some people later said that the status of Mrs. Tassel Xiangfu was not guaranteed, and Miss Gu Fusan came later.

Gu Qing and the girls didn't mind these words, but Wei Cai was anxious, he wanted to correct his sister's name, so he waited outside the Prime Minister's Mansion early, waiting for Gu Qing to give her a dismount when he came.

Gu Qing took the crescent moon with her, and for the first time she took the carriage of a large family, she was very happy, dancing in the carriage.

Wei Cai sat on the steps with a big knife and waited for a long time, when he saw the Gu Fu carriage coming from a distance, he immediately stood up straight, and put the big knife on the ground, looking fierce.

Gu Qing was dumbfounded, every time she met him, she could always surprise her.

He was a little child, so she didn't want to waste time with him outside the house, so after getting off the carriage, she didn't look at him, called the crescent moon, went straight past him, and strode towards the house.

When the crescent moon saw him for the first time, she was shocked by his demeanor and asked Gu Qing, "Sister Xiaoqing, what is he doing?"

"Oh he, I guess I've eaten too much and I can't do anything. He shook off the sentence and walked in openly.

Gu Qing just said casually, the crescent moon was taken seriously. She followed behind her and secretly made up her mind that not a word of what Sister Xiaoqing had said could be missed, and she must redouble her efforts to study in the future to ensure that she would not embarrass Sister Xiaoqing.

Hey, they're so daring. Even though he was standing in place as a big person, he pretended not to see it.

Wei Cai hurriedly caught up with their footsteps, blocked in front of them, stretched out his arm to block the way or they would go, and snorted softly: "You, you, you...... Don't think that my son-in-law is interesting to you, he loves my sister the most, you must not be delusional about my son-in-law.

Gu Qing was speechless, the little guy always said this kind of thing in front of her, and her ears were about to grow calloused, so she simply ignored him.

Since he was in the way, she took a detour, and her mother once said that she should deal less with people who were careful.

So he turned around and twisted, and took the crescent moon and went the other way.

Eh, don't go, he hasn't achieved his goal yet, but he can't let them just leave.

"Stand still. He shouted behind him.

Gu Qing obediently stopped, turned around and asked, "Something?"

She kept a calm face and didn't give him a good tone.

It was the first time Wei Cai had seen such an unsmiling look, and after seeing him stunned for two seconds, he stepped forward and stammered: "I...... Actually, there's nothing to do, so let's go. ”

He also made a gesture of waving his hands.

The crescent moon thus strengthened what Gu Qing said, after a series of behavioral observations just now, this boy should be full of food and lack of energy, maybe it is possible that there is a problem with his brain.

Gu Qing glared at him inexplicably, and then swaggered away from his sight.

Wei Cai scratched the back of his head, and suddenly felt annoyed, what was the matter with him? Seeing Gu Qing's calm face, he thought that she was angry, and the initial momentum disappeared without a trace in an instant, and he froze.

The knife he was carrying was just to bluff people, which was good, but he didn't bluff, and he also stumbled.

After asking the maid for directions, he learned that Murong was waiting in the garden. Today, the weather is a little clearer, the shadow of the sun is faintly visible in the sky, and the snow on the branches of thousands of trees is slowly melting.

He stood in the open space with his hands in his hands, as if admiring the view.

No one reported, Gu Qing asked the crescent moon to stand in the corridor and wait, she walked towards Murong by herself stepping on the footprints of the snow, and did not disturb his interest in watching the scenery, she kept standing behind him and waiting for him to finish.

Or maybe the scenery is too beautiful, the pure white of the world and his white clothes reflect his white clothes, the hair splashing ink is flying freely, and the branches are dry and leafless, which adds a different kind of feeling. The cold winter wax moon, it's really because of this.

I don't know how long I stood there, but I knew that the soles of my shoes seemed to be soaked with snow, and the soles of my feet were wet.

He was heard saying, "If I don't squeak, will you stand until dark?"

"Why not?" she smiled, leaned in front of him, gave him a mischievous look, and then immediately stood back where she was.

"What are you doing?" he turned to ask her, seeing that her face was all smiles, and her mood brightened.

"I'm tired of waiting, so I want to jump here and there. "She's honest, and that's right, she's not a woman who keeps to herself.

There are not many women around Murong who have been in contact with him, and if you want to count it carefully, I'm afraid there is only one tassel.

"What did you tell me to do? Do you want to eat? I like hibiscus prawns and peach chicken, do you know how to cook them?"

She seems to be a glutton at the moment, and when she talks about the name of the dish, her eyes shine.

Hibiscus prawns and diced chicken with peach kernels?

Murong thought about it and replied honestly: "No." ”

He had seen too many women, most of them gentle and virtuous, and a few of them were eccentric, but their eccentricity seemed to be displayed in order to behave well in front of him. Unlike Gu Qing, his manners and conversation are really like a child.
