Chapter 572: Xiao Shi and Chunlan
King Jing's mansion.
"Miss Chunlan, the prince said that these books have to be dried, why don't you come and help." The little maid beside Xue Yihan couldn't help but shout when he saw Xia Lan cleaning the courtyard with a broom every day.
Chunlan hurriedly put the broom aside, wiped two handfuls on her skirt, and then walked over crampedly: "Little brother, what do you think I can help do?" ”
Seeing her like this, the little girl couldn't help laughing and said, "Miss Xia Lan, don't be polite, if you don't dislike it, you might as well call me Xiaoshi." It's not like we haven't seen each other before, and we know each other well, and I also call you Xia Lan, so it's not obvious, do you think it's good? ”
Chunlan hurriedly nodded yes.
Xiao Shi saw it, knowing that she was still restrained, except for sighing secretly, there was no good way, Chunlan was the most shy of the four in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and now she has left the old master, and she has followed such a master, and there are some changes. Fortunately, now that the master has spoken, she has come to the study in the front yard, and she doesn't have to suffer from those tortures anymore.
"Chunlan, you're literate, right? Let's divide the books into categories first, and then post them in order. Xiao Shi suggested, but he didn't have anything to say, who didn't know the order of drying the books? It turned out that in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chunlan also posted books for Su Yuqing like this.
She is also a very sensitive girl, knowing that Xiao Shi is here to talk to her and let her not be too restrained, so she is grateful to Xiao Shi in her heart. In fact, she didn't know that this was specially ordered by Xue Yihan to treat Chunlan well.
Xiao Shi knows the master's mind the most, and now that the eldest lady of the Su family has become the princess of Khotan, the master feels guilty, since her maid is in the Jingwang Mansion, she has the meaning of taking care of her life.
"Let's divide the books by category first, and then divide them according to the old and new, and dry the newer ones directly, and check whether the old ones need to be patched with slurry water, and they will be preserved longer when they are patched and then dried." Chunlan said a lot, and when she saw Xiao Shi's surprised gaze, she said shyly, "I think Chunlan is too worried, with the carefulness of the prince, there shouldn't be such old books." ”
Xiao Shi grinned and said: "This can be regarded as an expert, I am worried about what to do with the two broken books, then this matter will bother you Chunlan." ”
Chunlan was stunned, and then smiled embarrassedly: "Then I will definitely do this seriously." ”
Xiao Shi waved his hand: "It's not a big deal, it's okay to make it up if you can't make it up, the prince never criticizes his subordinates for these things, you don't have to be so nervous." In addition to being more serious, our prince is extremely generous to his subordinates. ”
Chunlan pursed her lips and smiled: "That's what I said, but we as slaves can't really dare to turn the sky because the master is not to blame, and we still have to do our duty to the satisfaction of the master." ”
Xiao Shi heard Chunlan say this, and couldn't help but look at her again, thinking that she was a person who knew her duty, so he nodded and said: "You are right, the master treats us leniently, that is the grace given by the master, and we must do everything well." ”
Chunlan nodded, opened the book in her hand with a smile, and divided the books into categories and took them to dry one by one, and Xiao Shi looked at Chunlan's back, but sighed, it was the master's slave and maid, and she was more sensible than that concubine, I really don't know how the difference is so big from the same house!
When Xue Yihan returned home, he saw the scene of drying books, the books were almost dry, Xiao Shi was packing up the dried books, and Chunlan was doing post-drying treatment for those worn-out books, and a small stack had been placed at her feet, all of which were already neat, although they were old books, they were also extremely neat.
