Chapter 70: The smell of green tea
Shen Chongde immediately asked someone to call Steward Zhang.
"What's going on? Why hasn't she come here yet? Didn't you say she would come to see me today? Are you lying to me? ”
沈崇德撑起身子,上身探出床沿外,像一条伸长脖子昂着头,随时准备发起攻击的蛇,眼神阴鸷而吓人。
Steward Zhang's leg bent, "poof" fell to the ground, and shouted: "Wronged, master, you just give the little one another hundred guts, and the little ones don't dare to lie to you...... Qin Niangzi did tell the little one, saying that it was inconvenient to come to the door yesterday night, and after dawn tomorrow, she will definitely come to visit the master! ”
Could it be that Qin Niangzi lied to him yesterday?
It's impossible, Qin Niangzi, although she is a little more powerful on weekdays, but she is very good to them, even if she is angry, she is verbally reprimanded, and she has never really punished them for anything.
He made it so clear yesterday, even if Qin Niangzi has any grievances against this family, she will only solve it privately with the master, and she will never embarrass them!
想到这,张管家言辞笃定地说道:“老爷,秦娘子既然说了她今天会回来看望老爷,就一定会回来的,秦娘子不是那种言而无信的人,她想必是有什么事情给耽误了,老爷,我们再等等吧。 ”
Steward Zhang persuaded.
然而沈崇德内心的烦躁却翻涌出来,抑制不住,生怕秦九娘食言不过来。
The family has such a big property waiting for him to take over, and he can't wait to take over.
After he takes over the property logically, he will be able to prove to the world that his Shen Chongde's ability is no worse than anyone else, even if there is no woman like Qin Jiuniang supporting him behind him, he can still take care of the industry day by day!
Therefore, today, he must see Qin Jiuniang!
“既然你这么笃定她一定会过来,那你发誓,发誓说你方才所言都是真的…… Just swear by your old mother and son, do you dare? ”
"Huh? This ......"
张管家愣住,待意识到沈崇德是认真的,并不是在跟他说笑,他的脸瞬间变成了苦瓜脸,心里面更是跳起来大骂沈崇德不是东西。
For the Chinese New Year, it is okay to force him to swear, and he has to swear by his old mother and son...... Is this something that can be done by man?
Steward Zhang can't wait to jump up and slap the person on the bed!
In the end, he didn't swear by his old mother and son, because Qin Jiuniang arrived in time.
"She's really here? That's great! ”
Shen Chongde was overjoyed, jumped out of bed and was about to rush out.
Liu Furong hurriedly grabbed him: "Master, you can't run out like this, you are still sick." ”
"Huh? Yeah! Shen Chongde woke up, grabbed Liu Furong's hand, and patted it, "Fortunately, Rong'er reminded me, otherwise I would have almost forgotten that I was still a patient." ”
Liu Furong said: "Madame came home, the lord was happy, and he couldn't wait to see Madame as soon as possible, regardless of his illness and weakness, he also had to run out to meet Madame, this is because the old man is too affectionate to Madame." ”
“…… That's right! Exactly! Rong'er is so right! ”
Shen Chongde looked at the concubine in his arms with satisfaction: "Good Rong'er, you are really my master's interpretation flower." ”
Liu Furong pursed her lips and smiled shyly, and then held Shen Chongde's arm: "Master, let the slave help you out." ”
She even changed her self-proclaimed title to "slave".
Shen Chongde became more and more satisfied, feeling that she was sensible and knowledgeable, unlike the one outside......
Thinking of Qin Jiuniang, Shen Chongde's eyes flashed with a thick color of disgust.
The one outside, as long as he has half of his Rong'er who is sensible and knowledgeable, will not be reduced to a cousin's wife.
I completely forgot who was the one who was divorced.
At this time, the living room of the Shen family banquet was full of people.
Qin Jiuniang, together with everyone, sat in the guest position in an orderly manner, her eyes occasionally swept over the host seat of the head, and there was no sadness in her eyes.
What's so sad about it.
In the last life, her heart was all tied to Shen Chongde's body, for fear that Shen Chongde would fall in love with other women and not want her, she regarded the identity of the hostess of the Shen family as more important than her own life.
In the end, she did pay with her life.
Now that she is coming back to her life, Qin Jiuniang just wants to slap herself in the previous life a few times, and scold again, "You deserve it, you take the blame." ”
Stupid like that, she doesn't do cannon fodder, who does??
Qin Jiuniang retracted her gaze, frowned and asked the maid who was serving the tea: "What about your master, why hasn't he come over yet?" ”
The maid blurted out: "Madame, stop your anger, the slave and maid will go and invite the master over." ”
那丫环说完,径直放下手中的茶壶,转身迈脚,一副就要去请沈崇德过来的样子。
Hearing this, Qin Jiuniang's brows frowned even tighter, and she stopped her: "Wait a minute." ”
What this girl just said was that she was "please stop being angry", was she angry just now? Didn't you? I just frowned and asked.
There is also the prefix of "Mrs.", she has long drawn a line with Shen Chongde, this girl ring is the "old lady" pulling her and Shen Chongde together, what's the matter? ?
At this time, the girl had already turned around, and when she heard Qin Jiuniang calling her, she turned around again.
"Madame, do you have any other orders?"
Qin Jiuniang: "......"
She frowned and corrected the other party: "My surname is Qin, you can call me Qin Niangzi, or you can call me Boss Qin, but this 'lady' title cannot be called again in the future." ”
"Ah, this ......" The girl was stunned for a moment, as if she realized that she had said the wrong thing, and she was suddenly panicked, and her little face turned white and she was about to kneel down and admit her mistake.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the slave knows that she is wrong, the slave and the maid will never dare again, and beg the lady to spare her life...... Ask Qin Niangzi to spare her life! ”
Qin Jiuniang: "......"
Did she say anything about wanting this girl's life?!
Not at all!
It's just inexplicable!!
Qin Jiuniang looked at the girl ring who kept kowtowing on the ground, and a cold glow burst out from the bottom of her eyes.
It is very common for a subordinate to say the wrong thing and annoy the lord's family, which is common in large households.
After all, no one is a roundworm in anyone's stomach.
But if you really want to talk about it, the girl in front of her called her Mrs., it should only be called Shunkou, so she blurted out, it was purely a matter of habit, and she didn't make such an unforgivable mistake.
But it was such an inconsequential little mistake, the girl was pale, so scared that she knelt down and kowtowed to her to admit her mistake and beg for mercy, which made the other people present think of her when they saw it?
They will feel that she Qin Jiuniang is arrogant and domineering, and she punishes and scolds her subordinates at every turn, so that in front of her, the subordinates are all terrified, and if they make a little mistake, they are all too scared.
Her personality used to be a little irritable, but ask yourself, she hadn't treated the people in the house badly before.
Otherwise, Shen Chongde wouldn't have sent a housekeeper to invite her over, wouldn't he just pinch her weakness and not embarrass her?
But the girl ring in front of her called her Mrs. when she opened her mouth, and then she just corrected it, and the other party immediately looked as if he was going to kill her.
…… I don't know, I thought she Qin Jiuniang was so cruel.
所以,面前这个丫环,是沈崇德给她设下的第一个陷阱吗?
Qin Jiuniang thought thoughtfully, looked at the girl ring who was still kowtowing, and said lightly: "Raise your head and let me see you." ”
The figure of the girl ring seemed to struggle for a moment, and then she slowly raised her head and looked at Qin Jiuniang.
丫鬟生了双小鹿一样黝黑水灵的杏眼,里面波光粼粼,装着两泡晶莹,畏惧地望着秦九娘。
That little appearance looks very pitiful to me.
Qin Jiuniang felt a familiar smell of green tea rushing to her face.
She suddenly woke up in her heart, narrowed her eyes, and looked at the apricot-eyed maid scrutinically.
小姑娘“十四五”岁的样子,有一张精致小巧的瓜子脸,肤色虽然不够白皙细腻,但胜在眉眼清秀。
Especially the other party's pair of bright apricot eyes, which can be very seductive.
It's just that he doesn't dare to look directly at people, and he shows a dodging posture from time to time.
Everything shows that this girl ring is not deeply involved in the world.
The most important thing is that this girl ring, she is very raw.
I think it should be the subordinate who has just entered the mansion after she left the Shen family.
Most of the guests received in the banquet room were close friends with the host's family, or were extremely important to the host's family.
Therefore, those who can do errands in the banquet hall must not only do their errands well and be clever, but also win the trust of the Lord's family.
Under normal circumstances, such an errand is impossible to give to a newcomer who has just entered the house.
Thinking about what this girl did again, it was difficult for Qin Jiuniang not to be suspicious of this person.
She called for the system customer service in her heart.
"Xiao Fubao, help me check the identity of this girl."
"Good host."
"Friendly reminder, this information query needs to consume 2 points of strategy value."
"Excuse me, host, do you need to continue this service?"
Qin Jiuniang: "......"
As soon as she came, she had to spend money, and the Shen family really restrained her here.
Qin Jiuniang held back her heartache and said, "Go on." ”
The next moment, a panel appeared in front of Qin Jiuniang that only she could see.
According to system information, the maid in front of her is surnamed Luo, named Xiumei, and is the niece of Shen Pozi's mother's family, Shen Chongde fell ill last year, and Shen Pozi specially took this niece over to take care of her son.
It turned out to be Mrs. Shen's maiden niece...... That is Shen Chongde's little cousin.
Qin Jiuniang stared at Luo Xiumei with a thoughtful expression.
Ancient society, cousins and cousins, frequent visitors in love books.
People here do not have the concept that close relatives cannot get married, and those who pursue kisses and relatives instead grab a lot of them.
Mrs. Shen took her niece over to take care of her son, and her purpose can be imagined.
且,这位罗表妹虽然是过来照顾沈崇德的,但她也仅仅只是照顾沈崇德一人而已,并非沈家的丫环。
Like this kind of work of serving tea and pouring water to serve guests, there are people from the Shen family to do it, and she is not needed.
But now, this Cousin Luo appeared in the banquet hall dressed as a subordinate, and deliberately called the wrong name, and then made a panicked state of admitting her mistake and begging for mercy, her intentions were obvious.
Didn't you just want to give her a bad reputation?
No wonder she felt that the other party had a smell of green tea that she was familiar with.
Because in the previous life, Liu Furong often used such means to frame her.
This Cousin Luo is a typical copy of Liu Furong.
It's a pity that the other party is a little younger, not qualified enough, and has the means, but the lack of enough city government to support this means is too impatient.
However, in the original book, there doesn't seem to be Cousin Luo.
这是临时增加新人物进来了?
Qin Jiuniang raised her eyebrows and looked at the new character Luo Xiumei scrutinically.
The other party didn't know that his old bottom had fallen off, and he was still complacent in his heart.
