Chapter 9: Greetings

The girl's determined tone made Mama Fang feel relieved and distressed.

I am glad that the girl has grown up and her heart is bright, and I am distressed that the little girl who is full of admiration for her grandmother has to grow up.

Mama Fang held Xin Yu's hand and said in a low tone: "The girl guessed well, after the old slave accompanied you into Beijing, she gave all these to the old lady according to Madame's instructions." ”

At that time, she also disregarded her identity and expressed her worries to her wife euphemistically.

The lady who was seriously ill in bed smiled when she heard this, and said to her: "When I go, Qingqing's closest person in this world is her grandmother, and my mother will take care of Qingqing." ”

She could not forget the sadness that Madame had hidden in her eyes when she said this, and she understood at once how useless her worries were.

How could Madame not think of a worry that even a servant woman could think of? However, the old man died unexpectedly, and the lady couldn't hold on, and there was only one orphan girl left in the huge Kou family. If you don't send the girl to the capital to ask for the protection of her grandfather's family, let alone keep the millions of family fortunes, even the girl's life can't be saved.

Thinking of this, Mama Fang clenched her fists, feeling sorry for the hostess who died early.

Mrs. knew that in the end, the millions of family fortunes still failed to give the girl a stable life.

"Does my grandmother know about this booklet?" Xin Yu's gaze fell on the thin booklet.

Mama Fang shook her head, showing hesitation.

Xin Yu pursed her lips: "What else can't the nurse say to me?" It's just that I don't understand it, isn't there a nurse to teach me. ”

Hearing this, Mama Fang looked at the girl with a calm expression in a daze, and once again felt that the girl had really grown up.

I still remember the day she was driven away, and begged the girl regardless of her face, but the girl looked away and did not look at her again.

Mama Fang raised her hand and gently combed the girl's slightly messy hair: "Madame once explained that when the girl grows up, if she marries her cousin or marries with red makeup and dignity, this book will be quietly burned." If the girl marries someone else, and the dowry is decent, let the old slave show the girl this booklet, so that the girl can have a number in her heart, and live her own life from now on. The old slave couldn't have imagined that he would show you this booklet before the day the girl came out of the pavilion, my hard-working girl......"

Mama Fang hugged Xin Yu and cried, and Xin Yu also felt sad for Kou Qingqing.

She grew up being loved by her mother, and from Mama Fang's words, she can understand a mother's love for her daughter. It's a pity that even if he plans for his daughter and retreats in every way, he still can't resist the sinister greed of people's hearts.

"What's the girl going to do next?" Mama Fang asked with the corners of her eyes.

"The next step is to take care of your body first. The nurse kept watch over me all night last night, so let's go and rest early. ”

"The old slave is not tired, the old slave accompanies the girl."

"Nurse, you have a good body to take care of me."

Mama Fang stopped insisting at this time, and was accompanied by Xiaolian to the cleaned room to rest.

In the evening, Xiaolian stayed for vigil, and Xin Yu called her in from outside and took out the account book to show her.

The number on the booklet was so shocked that Xiaolian's mouth didn't close for a long time, and she muttered, "This booklet was left by Madame...... Slave, slave shouldn't be seen......"

So much money, so much land, how can she be a little girl who deserves to see these!

Xin Yu couldn't cry or laugh: "Then who can watch it?" ”

"Of course it's a girlβ€”" Xiaolian blurted out, and only then did she react to the pair of clear Lingling's eyes, this was not her girl.

Maybe it was the small inner room that shortened the distance, maybe it was a few days of getting along to establish trust, at this moment Xiaolian suddenly broke down emotionally, covered her face and cried.

Xin Yu raised his hand and gently put it on her shoulder: "In a few days, I will accompany you to find Miss Kou." ”

Three days later, Xin Yu went out of the evening residence for the first time and went to Ruyi Hall to greet the old lady.

"My cousin is here." The maid guarding the door was a little surprised when she saw Xin Yu coming.

The old lady also showed surprise: "Qingqing, why are you here?" ”

"I feel so neat today, come to say hello to my grandmother." Xinyu curtsied.

"Come and sit next to my grandmother." The old lady beckoned, showing a look of disapproval, "Didn't you say that you should take care of it, please be in a hurry at this time." ”

Xin Yu sat down next to the old lady and raised her head slightly: "It's really good, I'm bored and panicked all the time, it's better to come and accompany my grandmother." ”

The eldest lady Qiao Shi smiled when she heard this: "Young and young, recover quickly." Old lady, you should be relieved now. ”

The old lady smiled and nodded, and asked Xin Yu, "Does Qingqing think of anything else?" ”

Xin Yu lowered her eyes, revealing a depressed look: "No." Except for remembering the nurse, I still can't think of anything else. ”

"That's it-" The old lady patted the back of Xin Yu's hand, "Don't worry, take your time." It doesn't matter if you can't remember it, life will pass later. ”

Xin Yu nodded obediently and said softly: "Grandmother, I want to go out tomorrow." ”

The old lady was stunned for a moment, and her face was a little more serious: "This is just right, why do you want to go out?" ”

Xin Yu replied, "I want to visit the old couple who saved me and express my gratitude to them. ”

"It's right to say thanks, let the steward send a thank you gift, why bother you to go in person." The old lady was unimpressed.

Qiao Shi smiled on his lips and did not say a word, but Zhu, who had never spoken much in front of the old lady, opened his mouth: "What the old lady said is." Qingqing, your body is just right, don't go out to work, take care of it. ”

Xin Yu couldn't help but glance at Zhu more.

From the old ginseng when she visited the sick to the many words at this time, the second lady seemed to be kind to Miss Kou.

And for Xin Yu to make this judgment, there is a fundamental point: interests.

Kou Qingqing had an accident, and the biggest beneficiary was not the second room of the concubine.

Xin Yu bowed slightly to Zhu's family: "I know that the elders love me, but as the old saying goes, the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, and that old couple saved my life, if I can't even thank me in person, it's really difficult to feel at ease." ”

She stretched out her hand, gently grabbed the old lady's sleeve and shook it: "Grandmother, you can agree, if you don't have this wish, I will always be unsteady." ”

"Thisβ€”" The old lady hesitated.

"Grandmother, please."

The girl's stunned look made the old lady relieved: "Then go early and return early, and bring a few more guards." ”

"Thank you, grandmother."

"Let's go back and rest." The old lady glanced at everyone in the room, "You too." ”

The crowd responded, and the fish rushed out.

Xin Yu walked behind slowly, looking sideways at Duan Yunling, the third girl who fell beside her, catching the tangled look that the other party quickly concealed.

"Is there something wrong with Cousin Ling?"

"Why didn't Cousin Qing take the words of the Taoist to heart. It's better to believe it than to believe it, what if you go out and get into trouble? Duan Yunling said in a low voice.

"Third sister, what are you whispering to Cousin Qing?" The eldest girl, Duan Yunwan, appeared in front of the two with a slight smile.
