Chapter 45: Meeting at Baohua Building (I)
As Xue Hainiang returned to Furong Garden, after Mingxi served her to take a rest, she returned to her own room, followed Xue Hainiang's previous instructions, and simply wrote a letter, asking the little maid in Furong Garden to send it to Liang Mansion and hand it over to Liang Bairou.
Generally speaking, those who become subordinates of the mansion and sign the deed of sale as slaves and maidservants are sold into the hands of Ya Po since childhood, and the Ya Po is resold into the mansion, the second is a street child who is destitute and has no fixed place to live, and voluntarily goes to the Gaomen Mansion to be sent, and the third is a refugee who fled to Beijing and signed a deed of sale in desperation.
Therefore, the servants and maids in the mansion are not able to write and ink, and they have no way to talk about writing letters.
Mingxi is a special example, when she was young, she moved into Beijing with the elders of her family, but she encountered bandits on the way, and the elders of the family did not survive, and she was scared to faint, so she narrowly escaped death. She came to Beijing alone, and was brought back to Xue Mansion by Hai Niang, who was only seven years old, because Mingxi has been reading and learning with Xue Hainiang since she was a child.
Mingxi has followed Xue Hainiang since she was a child, although she is nominally a maid, but the whole of Furong Garden treats her as a second little master, she usually serves Xue Hainiang's diet and daily life, and no longer cares about other matters in Furong Garden, and now, as soon as Xue Hainiang rests, she is lying on her own collapse, bored tossing and turning, difficult to sleep.
The clear and pleasant voice is still in her ears, but it makes her heart chill inch by inch, no matter how dull she is, she can always barely understand it.
At first, she only knew that her young lady and Aunt Xu had joined forces to get rid of the Lin family, but now, the Lin family was demoted, and the young lady shook hands with Xue Qiaoling and made peace, which seemed to have a plan......
The young lady who is not smiling, but in private is smart and lovely, kind and innocent, seems to have faded out of her memory, or she has never really understood the young lady.
was sentimental and confused, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a green shadow passing by outside the window lattice, Mingxi twisted his eyebrows, and a wave of hatred surged in his heart. 、
Yes, after Gu San came to Furong Garden, the simple and kind-hearted young lady in her memory gradually changed her temperament for some reason......
Subconsciously, Mingxi blamed Gu San for his sins.
Mingxi lifted the heavy futon, put on a fur coat and pushed the door out of the threshold, her beautiful eyes seemed to be faintly angry, she tilted her chin slightly, and her angry eyes stared at the inexplicable man in front of her.
He is extremely handsome, although he is not an extremely handsome man, but he can also be pleasing to the eye.
Mingxi didn't think about it and scolded: "Gu San, what do you want to do to my young lady?"
Gu San was stunned for a long time, and then frowned and said in a deep voice: "What does Miss Mingxi mean by this?" In recent days, although Mingxi has sneered at him, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, he has never been so blatant and so straightforward.
Mingxi raised his eyebrows slightly and sneered: "If you want to use some means to win Miss's heart and win Miss's trust, I advise you to stop it, I, Mingxi, will never let you come nonsense." ”
She seemed to be a little complacent about her momentary 'wit', and became more and more natural.
However, Gu San was inexplicable for a while, and he never knew what Mingxi's sentence 'to win Miss's heart and win Miss's trust' meant.
Suddenly, Gu San had already come to his senses and asked in a deep voice: "Gu Sanyi is a martial artist, although he can't be on the stage, he doesn't disdain to use scheming methods such as women and children. ”
He paused, and then sneered again: "Miss Mingxi has such an opinion, could it be that she is also such a woman and child in Gu San's mouth?"
When Mingxi heard this, her delicate face turned a little whiter.
"You, you dare to scold me. Mingxi was speechless for a while, and held back for a long time before he came to such a sentence.
Gu San accused quite seriously, "Miss Mingxi and Gu San are both people who obey Miss's dispatch, but Miss Mingxi has insulted Gu San several times, even if you are Miss Mingxi, you don't care about Gu San's face, so why should Gu San take care of Miss Mingxi's face." ”
Mingxi was speechless when he was accused, and he couldn't find words like Gu San's scolding without dirty words.
"Aren't you winning Miss's trust and praise with your incorruptible tongue, if it weren't for your existence, how could Miss be more and more estranged from me. Mingxi has been very well protected since he was a child, and his words have never been blocked, coupled with his resentment towards Gu San in recent days, he has made him express it all at once.
Gu San was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, seeing this scene, he was a little less disgusted with the girl who had been targeting him for several days, in the final analysis, it was nothing more than a simple mind, no concealment, and a little ostentatious and domineering.
Gu San was a little serious, but his eyes were smiling lightly, "I'm afraid that the girl has some misunderstandings, although Miss values Gu San, it is only a subordinate relationship, but between the girl and the miss, it has always been far better than Gu San." ”
Mingxi Zheng is in place.
Between her and Miss, is it far better than Gu San?
After relieving himself, where was Gu San's figure in front of him......
——
Xue Hainiang originally planned to go up to the collapse to take a nap, but she didn't expect that it would be nearly an hour to lie down. I got up and got down, took the mink velvet hanging on the screen on the side and put it on, and looked at the goose feather snow blowing outside the window lattice.
Before thinking about taking a break, she had instructed Mingxi to hand over a letter to Liang Bairou, inviting her to go to Baohua Building for a get-together, and now that she thinks about it, the time is approaching.
Thinking of this, Xue Hainiang called Mingxi to dress up for herself.
Half an hour later, Xue Hainiang leaned on the collapse and flipped through the script, counting the passage of time, and after nearly one hour, she wore a veil and went out of the house with Mingxi.
Although the national style of Da Nan is not restrained, it is also not allowed to go to the street to look at people so arrogantly before leaving the cabinet.
Therefore, in the mansions of high-ranking officials and nobles, women who have not left the cabinet go to the street, and they are all wearing thin veils, which have covered their true faces.
And last time, because she was in and out of the Qinglou, in order to avoid inconvenience, she changed into men's clothes.
Baohua Building, Xue Hainiang, who had already ordered someone to set up a private room, asked the store one or two and then led the way to the private room by Xiao Er.
The private room is not spacious, but it is extremely elegant, with some landscape paintings hanging on the wall, a sandalwood case, a chaise longue, a few square stools, and a screen at the back.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Xue Hainiang heard a light step outside, followed by a sound of slamming the door.
Before Xue Hainiang could be informed, Mingxi stepped forward to open the door very actively and cleverly.
This scene fell into Xue Hainiang's eyes, which made her subconsciously raise her eyebrows, but she didn't say anything.
