Chapter Seventy-Four: Perfunctory
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
Gao Xiangning recognized the footsteps, and couldn't help but secretly scream: "It's not good, my brother is here." ”
Who knew that when she mentioned her brother, the people in front of her looked even more flustered than her.
As soon as she thought of the little uncle who loved her mother-in-law's complaint, Xu Weiqiu had a headache, and she was about to ask this Miss Gao to see where to hide here. Before he could open his mouth, the door of the study was pushed open.
And Gao Xiangning only had time to hide the newly acquired paper harrier behind him like a thief bell.
Gao Jijing received a report from his subordinates, saying that someone had sneaked into his study, so he came to find out.
He had already guessed that it might be his untaught sister. But when he pushed open the door and saw that in addition to his sister Xiangning, there was an unexpected woman in his study, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Surprised to surprised, but the etiquette education that was rooted in his heart made him quickly calm down, he coughed lightly, and saluted Xu Weiqiu:
"Sister-in-law!"
Hearing his title, Gao Xiangning stared at the boss with a pair of apricot eyes, and turned her head to look at Xu Weiqiu in disbelief.
Xu Weiqiu tugged at the corners of his mouth at her, revealing a smile that was more ugly than crying.
The next moment, Gao Jijing reprimanded his sister with a calm face: "Gao Ningxiang, what are you doing here?" Don't you know that it's quite rude to casually break into someone's study without the owner's permission? As a young lady of the Gao family, don't you even understand this basic etiquette? ”
Gao Xiangning was yelled at by her brother like this, and she stiffened and didn't even dare to move.
This person turned his face faster than turning a book, Xu Weiqiu couldn't hear it, he was just pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.
She smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm leaving, disturbing ......" She walked out as she spoke, and after speaking, the person had already crossed the brother and sister out of the study.
Gao Xiangning opened her mouth to keep her, but when she saw her brother with a warning look coming over, she suddenly didn't dare to make a sound, so she had to reluctantly watch people leave.
After the person left, Gao Jijing reprimanded his sister fiercely, Gao Xiangning didn't dare to refute, only obediently trained.
It wasn't until Gao Ji's mirror qi was almost gone, that Gao Xiangning had the courage to ask: "Brother, is that sister really Brother Yan's main wife?" ”
Gao Jijing replied with a straight face: "Exactly, what? You don't even know her identity and play with people? This woman is shallow and ignorant, and her moral character is lacking, so you will have less dealings with her in the future. ”
It's not, people are amazing, where is it shallow? Where is the ignorance?
Gao Xiangning wanted to refute, but was suppressed by his brother's stern eyes, and he didn't dare to squeak, so he nodded obediently.
It is said that this Xu Weiqiu escaped from the territory of the two brothers and sisters of the Gao family with his tail between his legs and returned to his own land, but unexpectedly, the east courtyard was deserted and there was not even a single figure, and the house was even darker.
Only then did she remember that Begonia had taken leave with her yesterday, and she also nodded and agreed.
No, the maidservant girl in the East Courtyard is not only Haitang.
Although this begonia loves to be broken and thought on weekdays, she still takes care of her very carefully, almost to the point of meticulousness, and every time she counts the time when she returns.
So every time she went back to the house, a hot meal was served.
She came back late today, and she didn't expect to have a hot meal like usual, but when she returned to the house, she didn't even have cold food or cold food.
After a busy day's work, she was already hungry.
"Yuling...... Jin Nuo ...... Chang'an ......" she shouted all the way to the backyard and walked all the way to the back room......
Chang'an and Jin Nuo were sitting on the wooden couch and giggling, and when they heard her call, they couldn't help but roll their eyes.
The few of them were very happy when they were first assigned to the East Courtyard, although they had also heard that this lady of the prince was not from a good background.
But a few of them thought about taking care of the living life of Mrs. Shizi, how could they be regarded as first-class maids in this Shengwang Mansion, and they thought in their hearts that it was better than taking care of those aunts who had no position.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the lady of the world entered the door, she made the prince unhappy, except for the wedding night, the two have been married for more than half a year, and the prince has never entered the east courtyard once.
At first, other aunts in the palace would occasionally come to ask for peace, but later the prince didn't want to see the East Courtyard at all, and no one came again.
The cold in front of the door of the east courtyard, the lady of this world has not seen anyone all day long, and the fool of Haitang still takes care of this neglected master in every way.
The people of the other courtyards, as long as the slaves and maids serve well, can also get a reward from the master. A few of them, they can't see this lady of the world all day long, and they don't get any benefits.
Seeing that Mrs. Shizi was not welcomed, Yuling had already found a way out, and secretly ran to another courtyard to serve after being introduced by a good sister.
"Yuling...... Yuling ...... Chang'an ......"
Seeing that there was a bright light in the Hou Qin room, Xu Weiqiu was sure that there was someone inside, so he couldn't help but call a few more times.
"Hmm......" finally had an answer.
After another half an hour, the door was opened, and Chang'an and Jin Nuo walked out and saluted him.
This ceremony was extremely perfunctory, Xu Weiqiu was a person who didn't pay much attention to these details, she didn't see it, she looked inside, and asked, "Did you fall asleep so early?" ”
The two girls nodded.
She asked again, "What about Yuling?" ”
Jin Nuo replied: "She was called by Aunt Yang. ”
"Oh!" Xu Weiqiu didn't care much about the whereabouts of a maid ring, she looked at the two of them and asked, "Is there anything to eat?" ”
The two girls looked at each other, and after a while, Jin Nuofang said hesitantly: "Madame's meals in the past were all prepared by Sister Begonia, and she didn't give special orders before she left the house, and the slave maid thought that Madame had already eaten outside." ”
Xu Weiqiu shook his head: "I haven't eaten yet, you two go to the stove room to see if there are any ingredients, just get me something to eat." ”
She felt that this was all Yahuan's job, so she went back to the house after being instructed. Unexpectedly, the two girls complained a lot about this, and their actions naturally dragged on.
Xu Weiqiu waited left and right in the bedroom and didn't wait to eat, she was very hungry, so she came to the stove room to see what was going on, but saw two girls chatting while choosing vegetables inside, and the stove was still cold.
"Haven't you started cooking yet?" She said as she stepped inside.
Chang'an, she and Jin Nuo saw her urging, so they sped up.
Xu Weiqiu stood aside and watched the two of them take a good vegetable, not the vegetable help, and the slightly larger leaves outside, leaving only a few tender leaves inside.
She also came in an era of material abundance, and she didn't care about waste when she used to eat, and she often asked the nurse to help order a takeout when it came to meals.
