Early in the morning, something seemed to have happened in the courtyard opposite the lotus pond, and the noise was frightening.

"Don't look at it, hurry back, Sister Tu Nan took someone to pack a lot of wontons this morning, let's go now just in time for the second pot."

Dragged Chunxin along the river, Xiaobao took out his other hand, took out a pair of gloves and stuffed it for her.

"My grandmother's eyes are not good, Sister Qingying and Sister Diecui helped with a few stitches last night, and it was finally done."

Harunshin held the gloves in both hands and looked over and over again, it was made of new crow blue cotton, the stitches were very dense, the thumb was on one side, and the four fingers were on the other.

Outside the small bag, he watched Harunshin take the gloves and watch them endlessly, and impatiently took them over and put them on her.

"This is a glove made for you, you can look at it however you like, so you can put it on and look at it again."

"Yikes."

The little girl looked at her hands and screamed in surprise.

Only then did she realize that the gloves, which were warm at first glance, were for herself.

Xiaobao looked at her surprised little face and looked at it with joy: "My grandmother said that you and Qiao'er both have chilblains on their hands, and you have to raise them to be good, you two will do some sprinkling and sweeping work before the beginning of spring, and then follow the literacy, but you have to learn faster, and you have to learn with us after the beginning of spring."

Chunxin heard Sister Litang talk about learning literacy yesterday.,At this time, I still feel unbelievable when I listen to it again.。

"Packet! Come on! The wontons are already ready, and Sister Tu Nan said that she still has an egg this morning!"

"Wow!" Xiaobao pulled Chunxin and was about to run wildly, but Chunxin came back to her senses, and her steps became her dragging Xiaobao.

Xiaobao, who was half a head taller than Chunxin, was speechless for a while.

The waterside courtyard belonging to the second young master of Ning'an Bofu originally had a kitchen, and on the edge of the main courtyard, the walls of the main courtyard have been demolished, and the open space in front of the study has become a place for the maids to practice and read every day.

The hot wontons were packed in a hat-shaped clay bowl, full of large portions, and Chunxin didn't forget to quickly take off his gloves when he went to get them.

Seeing her in a hurry, the woman who filled her with food showed a smile on her face:

"The gloves are so pretty."

Harunshin looked at her cautiously and whispered:

"Thank you."

Tunan smiled and touched her head.

"Eat more, if you don't have enough."

Seeing that this little girl who had changed her name to Chunxin stared at the wonton with uncontrollable joy on her face, Tu Nan straightened up and looked at the sky in the distance.

It's getting dawn.

She ordered the work of sharing the meal, put down the black-trimmed horse-faced skirt from her waist, put on a sky-blue jacket embroidered with pink petals and plum blossoms from the hanger on the side, and finished her clothes, and she took out a golden hairpin inlaid with turquoise from her bosom and put it on her head.

Chunxin didn't raise her head when she was eating wontons, but when she saw that the "cook" who had just handed her wontons was suddenly different, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"That's what I told you about Sister Tunan." Xiao Bao whispered in her ear, "The Second Young Lady is our real master, and she is the most powerful and powerful maid beside the Second Young Lady!"

Xiaobao also looked at Tu Nan, his eyes full of longing.

"Don't look at her just in charge of the kitchen, my grandmother told me that if I could learn the skills of Sister Tu Nan's Sancheng, she would wake up with a smile in her dreams."

A maid, how powerful can she be.

Eating the most delicious wontons that he has never eaten in his life, Harunobu feels that the person who can make this kind of wonton is already the most powerful maid in the world.

Open the pot, take out the box of pork with sprouts and leeks*, then take the chestnut porridge that is kept warm on top of the hot water, and put a few cold dishes into the box.

When she was ready to stop, Ah Chi, who was on duty last night, sent someone to deliver the meal, and she walked towards "Qingfeng Xu" with a food box in one hand and a porcelain jar of porridge in the other.

Passing by the pond, she also glanced up.

Lowering her eyes, she was flat again

An unremarkable backhouse maid.

After breakfast, Zhao Surui did not rush to move bricks to strengthen his body, but sat on the literary chair and casually found a book from Shen Sanrui's collection to read.

Looking at the sentence "Compound in the ground and take the inner mouth, bite it and spit it out"* next to the sentence "Ke" was written with a Dai pen, he suddenly smiled.

"Ah Chi."

"Girl."

"Open the window."

Ah Chi was also a little more obedient than before, and instead of blindly persuading, he first took the hairy cloak and covered it with his own girl, and then picked up the fire in the fire cage to make it stronger, and then opened the window.

Outside the window is the plum blossom sent by Shen Sanguo yesterday.

Zhao Surui looked at it for a while before he said, "Ah Chi, you say, if I want to catch the rat hidden in the cave, what should I do?"

Ah Chi stood aside and said softly, "If it's a slave maid, first find the exit of the mouse hole, wait a few days to see it clearly, and then block all the holes with mud and pour hot water into it."

"You're pretty accurate." Zhao Surui nodded, and asked again, "Then do you know how to find the mouse hole?"

How to find it?

Ah Chi was at a loss, she really hadn't caught a mouse.

"Follow, follow the mouse?"

"It's not okay to follow, the mouse has also become a refinement, and it knows that you are following it, and most of it will not go back to the cave, unless it ...... It's in a hurry."

Ah Chi seemed to understand whether she understood or not, she knew that what the girl was talking about seemed to be a mouse, not a mouse.

"Girl, why is the mouse in a hurry?"

"It's easy."

Zhao Surui waved his hand, put the book aside, and he picked up the kitten that was sleeping on his stomach on the bookcase and put it in his arms.

"Let it have no food in its belly, and then all other ways to bring it home are blocked, and let it still have a way to go, which is called wanting to get away with it."

Zhao Surui touched the kitten's round belly.

"Let the rat think that I am going to kill it outside the rat's nest, and force it to use the method of pressing the bottom of the box, but I will go straight to its nest, which is called hiding from the sky and crossing the sea."

Zhao Surui pinched the kitten's flesh and whistling calves again.

"Let the mouse realize that it thinks it can help him is actually harming him, and it is frightened to quickly use all means, this is called counter-strategy."

Zhao Surui touched the kitten's beard and stroked it again.

I was sleeping well, but I was picked up and tossed so much, the tips of the kitten's paws came out, but I struggled and couldn't move, so I could only stare at Zhao Surui.

Zhao Surui nodded his pink nose again.

"If you want me to say, these strategies are still too neat, one move after another, I don't know how many times I have practiced it in my heart, it looks like I have courage, but it is too cumbersome, as long as I aim at the mouse with a knife."

He pinched the kitten's paw and raised his eyes to look at the three plum trees outside.

"One knife, another knife, chop off its mouse claws, chop off its rat tail, and then pluck its mouse beard, if it is not honest, simply chop one of its legs, and then, just follow it, wherever it goes, it will slaughter no grass, where it goes, I will kill it cleanly."

The "woman" wrapped in a rolling hair cloak had elegant and deep eyebrows, but the words she said were murderous, as if she had killed through the charm and the sea of corpses before returning.

Ah Chi took a small step back, remembering that this was her own girl, so she leaned in again.

The kitten meowed in annoyance, and finally found a chance to get out, but did not go far, jumped lightly on the bookcase, and looked up.

Zhao Surui sighed leisurely.

He said that it was enjoyable, but the Yingjun Royal Mansion inherited the beginning of the self-established dynasty and had a deep foundation, how many people in the court colluded with them? And how many vassal kings will be connected with the Yingjun Palace? If you can't get to the bottom, if you are not careful, half of the Yong Dynasty will fall into a big upheaval.

He knew that Shen Sangu was trying to stop the war, that is, he wanted to find out the comrades of the Yingjun Wangfu first, and then force the Yingjun Wangfu to make a hasty incident and retreat early.

The bright light shone in through the double open windows, Zhao

Su Rui picked up the book "The World Speaks New Language" and blinked his eyes slightly.

At that moment, he heard a burst of laughter beside him.

"The girl looks like she used to be."

Once upon a time?

Zhao Surui raised the corner of his eyes slightly and glanced at Ah Chi.

"That's where I used to sit?"

"Yes, when the spring flowers bloom, the magnolia trees outside are very fragrant, and the girl reads and paints with the fragrance of flowers, and also collects the petals to make tea and bookmarks. It was warmer, and the vines and roses on the wall were blooming, and the bluegrass surrounded by the fence was also blooming, and the girl was mixing colors on the petals, and the colored ink was dotted on the petals and printed on the paper as if it were the real thing."

It sounds like a wonderful fairy day.

The cool breeze was cold, and Zhao Surui took a deep breath.

If Shen Sanzhu lived this kind of life when he was in the Shen Mansion, he could indeed be said to be an immortal.

But she is in the Xie family, the Xie family that has something to do with his father's death, the Xie family who embezzled her family property and dowry, a huge mansion, except for a few maids around her, almost no one is kind to her, from top to bottom, everyone wants to gnaw a piece of meat from her body.

She pretended to have an indisputable appearance, making others think that she was a beauty lamp that could only be seen, and she survived day after day, year after year.

What was she thinking about when she was admiring the flowers?

What was she thinking when she was studying?

What was she thinking when she was writing?

Zhao Surui thought and thought, but couldn't guess anything.

He just remembered the occasional glance of Shen Sanfu in the dream.

It's cold, which makes her whole person look different from what he thought was "Shen Sanwaste" for a long time.

It seems that there is a deep and bottomless hatred in her heart, and those hatreds are like flames, which have tempered her three souls and seven spirits, and if she wipes away a little cover, she will reveal a frightening cold light.

What is Shen Sanfu hating?

She hates the Xie family, not just the Xie family, she hates the respect of men in the world, and she doesn't just hate men...... If he was her, she probably hated this world.

A few little maids walked under the plum tree with a smile.

Zhao Surui raised his eyebrows slightly.

But there are too many treasured things in this world.

It was not only her thoughts of revenge that enveloped her hatred.

That's why she will be cautious, like a fierce tiger, to protect Jiaohua, like a big peng, not to bear the cold rain to invade her dreams.

"It's rubbish." Zhao Surui scolded.

At this moment, there was another sound of talking outside.

"Girl, Mrs. Bo set up a banquet in the Peony Pavilion to catch you up, saying that it was not only you who were invited, but also the old lady and Mrs. Shizi."

Old lady?

Zhao Surui said lazily:

"I will not go, but let the messenger go and tell them that I have been away from the Bofu for so many days, and I have no gold, silver, or pearls, and no clothes to wear, so I will not go to the eyes."

The Peony Pavilion behind the main hall of Ning'an Bo Mansion was full of enthusiasm.

Listening to the maid's words, Mrs. Sun of Ning'an Bofu gasped:

"Shen, what does she mean by that? Is she trying to trick me?!"

"In that case, Su Yan, you go back, open my private vault, take the new satin and clothes, and then send my jade head mask to the Shen family."

The person who spoke was the old lady of Ning Anbo's Mansion, who rarely appeared in front of people outside the New Year's Festival.

Seeing his mother-in-law say this, Sun was angry: "Old lady, it's okay for Shen to pretend to take Qiao, she is rebellious and unfilial, does not abide by women's morals, and even ...... with a foreign man."

Halfway through the words, Sun fell silent again.

Because the old lady was looking at her.

"The Shen family is the second young lady of our uncle's mansion, and she has always been diligent and never makes trouble, Sun, there are some things that you can't say as a mother-in-law."

Sun's mouth was closed, and his eyes were red with anger.

So, after waiting for a full moment, another maid came to pass the word.

"Madam, the second young lady said that although she has a head and clothes, the room is empty, and the clothes are becoming more and more shabby, and she, she is ashamed to see people."

"Bang!" Sun slapped the table.

"Su Yu, you go and sort out the ornaments I received last year, pick the delicate and beautiful ones, choose ten pieces, and send them to the second young lady."

Sun was so angry that he didn't want to speak.

Nearly two more moments later, the maid came to speak again.

This time it was the furniture in the house that was not good.

The old lady asked people to send tables and chairs made of rosewood.

The sun rose to mid-heaven, and the maids ran back and forth six or seven times.

Finally, even the old lady was a little moved:

"What does she want this time?"

"Second Young Lady, Second Young Lady......

"You talk well, what else does she want?"

The little maid fell to her knees with a thud:

"The second young lady said that everything sent was ...... It's ugly, it's better to just give her 10,000 taels of silver and pick it yourself."
