Chapter 49: The Heart Is Too Big
Liu Lu only cared about calling Qiuyue to do things, but he never promised any benefits.
Twenty taels of silver is enough for Qiu Yue to take the risk to help Jiang Yan once.
Qiuyue didn't go directly to expose Liu Lu, but pretended to accidentally let Mama Xu bump into these meals, and when Mama Xu asked, she pretended not to know.
Mama Xu is so smart, Qiu Yue doesn't say it, she also has a way to check.
So in the afternoon of the same day, Liu Lu was called away by Mama Xu and went to no one's place.
"I have always valued you for your gentleness and calmness, but now why has you become so virtuous? That's a good concubine who the young master is marrying into the door, and it is really a level higher than the ordinary concubine, how can you allow a slave to do this? ”
Mama Xu hated that iron could not become steel, and she counted the willow green and a stick of incense.
The means of deducting food and clothing, which is a small family, is used by Liu Lu.
Mama Xu warned bitterly: "Don't look at the young master who has snubbed her now, but sooner or later she will return to favor, if the young master knows about these ugly things you have done, do you think you can avoid heavy punishment?" ”
Liu Lu lowered his head, with an attitude of admitting his mistake, but his nails were pinched into his palms at some point, and boredom and stinging flashed in his eyes.
"I know it's wrong, Mama, I was scratched by her face, but I couldn't ...... it."
"I still know what kind of person Jiang Niangzi is, if you don't provoke her, how can she scratch your face for no reason?"
Mama Xu said coldly, it can be seen that she is really displeased, "I called you here in private, and I didn't say in front of others that you were saving you some face, so I covered you up this time, I told you that there is no next time." ”
After she finished speaking, she left, Liu Lu's eyes flashed with yin and poison, and she made a half-salute, "Mama go slowly." ”
After Mama Xu's figure disappeared completely, Liu Lu opened her mouth and scolded: "Phew, the old man is immortal." ”
Want to make Jiang Wei again? Dream on.
"Sister Liulu, Mama is just old and confused, so I can't see clearly that you are the most important thing in the heart of the eldest young master." A few days ago, the maid who helped Liu Lu deliver a rancid meal to Jiang Yu came out, with a low eyebrow and a pleasing flattery.
Liu Lu calmed down a little and asked, "What has Jiang Yu been doing these days?" ”
"I heard that I stayed in the house all day and read something, and I didn't make any trouble, and I looked very relaxed."
"Hmph, she's laid-back, who is pretending to show her?" Liu Lu was full of anger, and she couldn't see Jiang Yan living too comfortably, as if she had planted a thorn in her heart.
"I heard that she still cherishes those broken books very much, and the last time I saw her accidentally drop the book into the flower pot, she didn't care about getting dirty, and just took her sleeve to wipe the mud on it, which seemed to be distressed."
"Really?" Liu Lu sneered and instantly had an idea.
On the other side, Mama Xu led Qiuyue and went to Jiang Yan's residence in person.
Jiang Yu expected her to come, but still asked, "Why is Mama here?" ”
"It's all my fault for my negligence, I didn't know that there was a maid who made an argument to deduct your use, and I hope that Jiang Niangzi is not to blame." Mama Xu didn't want to offend Jiang Yan, but she didn't shake the willow green out.
Liu Lu is the old man who serves in Changmo Academy, not only Mama Xu, but most of the people in Changmo Academy will inevitably favor her.
Jiang Yu had a keen insight, and she didn't mention Liu Lu on her face, but smiled: "It's okay, it's inevitable that Mama's affairs will be overlooked." ”
Mama Xu smiled and asked Qiuyue to quickly take the dinner out of the food box.
Two meats, two vegetables and one soup are the degree that ginger women's grades should have.
"It's good that you don't blame it, and this girl will be in charge of your recent diet in the future." Mama Xu instructed Qiu Yue behind her: "You don't have to do the hard work of transporting carbon ash in the stove room, you are only responsible for sprinkling and sweeping the two wings in the southeast, and sending daily meals to Jiang Niangzi." ”
"Do as Mama commands." Qiuyue was flattered, Mama Xu arranged this time, and she didn't know how much the work in her hands was saved.
And all of this is because of Jiang Yan's relationship.
Seeing that there was nothing to do, Mama Xu and Jiang Yu retired.
Jiang Yu secretly gave Qiu Yue a look and motioned for her to stay.
After Mama Xu left, Qiu Yue hung her head and said, "Jiang Niangzi." ”
Jiang Wei put her hand on the table and asked thoughtfully, "How long have you been in the house?" ”
"Back to Jiang Niangzi, three years."
"I have something here, and I still need you to help me do it." Jiang Yan leaned into her ear and whispered a few words.
I don't know what to say, Qiu Yue took a few steps back in shock and shook her head, "The slave can't help you in this matter, if she finds out, she is so small-bellied, and the slave and maid can't mix in the mansion." ”
"Fifty taels."
"Jiang Niangzi ......"
"One hundred taels." Jiang Wei pushed a silver ticket in front of her again.
Qiu Yue was helpless, "It's really not a matter of silver. ”
Jiang Yan looked at her and suddenly asked, "I remember, you have been a miscellaneous maid for three years in the house?" ”
"Exactly."
"Although Mama Xu has saved you some work, the daily work of the miscellaneous maid is still hard, doing the dirtiest and most tiring work and getting the most meager monthly salary, don't you want to go one step further?"
Qiu Yue's hands folded in her lower abdomen tightened, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
Jiang Yu went straight to the point: "After helping me do this, I will bring you to my side, be a first-class maid, and pay three taels of silver a month." ”
There are not many maids in her house, and only one of them is Hongying, so it is easy for her to ask for someone else.
First-class maid ......
Not only is the work easy, but it is also more than twice as high as her current monthly salary......
Qiu Yue couldn't resist such a temptation, so she gritted her teeth and agreed.
"Please ask Mrs. Jiang to wait for the news of the slave."
Jiang Wei's slender fingers picked up the teacup and hooked her lips, "Wait." ”
She always believes that there is no one who cannot be driven by interests, and if there is, it is that the benefits are not enough.
The autumn moon leaves, and the red warbler comes out of the inner room.
She had been tidying up Jiang Yan's things in the room before, and scratched her head suspiciously, "It's strange, master, why is your silk skirt missing?" ”
"If you don't see it, it's gone, it's just a piece of clothing."
Jiang Yan's indifferent and indifferent attitude made Hongying want to cry without tears, "Master, that's Tiansi silk, which is more expensive than the slave and maid being sold." ”
Jiang Yan put down the medical book and couldn't help laughing, "Then I'll sell the red warbler tomorrow, see who can sell the red warbler or the silk silk." ”
"You still have fun with slaves." Red Oriole stomped her foot in shame, "You can't be a thief in your house, right?" ”
Jiang Yu didn't seem to have a trace of suspicion, and said as a matter of course: "This is the Guogong Mansion, how can there be a thief?" Net wandering around. ”
"Your heart is too big...... "Hongying was helpless, but she couldn't say anything, so she had to retreat first.
When the room was quiet, only Jiang Yu was left, and she didn't seem to care about anything except sitting quietly and reading a book.
Half an hour passed, and the peeping figure outside the window gradually disappeared......
A deep coldness appeared on Jiang Yan's face, and she put down the medical book that she hadn't read a word.
