One

Shen Qingluo lazily leaned on the Xiangfei couch, covered with a silk quilt covered with Su brocade, and closed her eyes to recuperate.

In the house, there was a faint fragrance of flowers, which made her feel refreshed. It was a few pots of chrysanthemums in full bloom, quietly blooming in the corner of the house.

It was a flower sent by Xiao Wu.

Since she knew that she was pregnant, Shen Qingluo immediately ordered to stop all incense.

However, she has become accustomed to the smell of incense. She needed scent to mask the embarrassing smell on her body.

The fishy smell is like the smell of fish.

Once, she watched Xiao Rong come back from outside with a smile, so she half-jokingly said, "Xiao Rong, are you going to find Xiao Wu again?" ”

Xiao Rong's face turned red, and then he argued: "Which one went to find Xiao Wu?" ”

Shen Qingluo smiled: "Still quibbling." You smell it yourself, and you can smell the fragrance of flowers on your body from afar. ”

Xiao Rong sniffed his shirt weakly, bowed his head and said nothing, his delicate face was full of shyness.

Shen Qingluo said with a smile: "Next time I go to the flower room, bring me a few pots of flowers and put them in the house, I like it too, don't you?" ”

Xiao Rong immediately said happily: "Yes." Xiao Wu said that the chrysanthemums were blooming just right, so the slave maid went to bring a few pots. ”

As he spoke, he ran away with a puff of smoke.

Sure enough, after a while, I heard Xiao Rong's cheerful voice: "Come, come in." Come in! ”

Shen Qingluo couldn't help but wonder.

A young man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes stood timidly at the door with two pots of flowers.

Seeing Shen Qingluo, he hurriedly put down the flower pot, knelt down and kowtowed: "Xiao Wu asks Mrs. for peace." ”

Shen Qingluo smiled and said, "You are Xiao Wu?" I often hear Xiaorong mention you. ”

Xiao Wu's face turned red, and Nuo Nuo said: "I heard that Mrs. likes flowers, so I will send a few pots to the small ones." There are also many beautiful flowers, as long as the lady likes it, the small ones can be sent at any time. ”

Shen Qingluo looked at his flustered appearance and nodded slightly: "Okay, there are good flowers, let Xiao Rong pick them up." Go back. ”

Xiao Wu was so nervous that he kowtowed again: "Yes." Small retirements. "I didn't dare to raise my head.

Xiao Rong smiled and leaned back.

Shen Qingluo scolded: "What are you laughing at! What's so funny! Laughing so much that everyone was shy. ”

Xiao Rongqiang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Look at his stupidity." ”

Shen Qingluo's heart warmed.

This little girl, this is in love. I don't even know it.

When I was sixteen or seventeen years old, I was lonely and deep, where could I have such a bright smile.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingluo couldn't help but smile.

She slowly opened her eyes and pressed her fingers on her temples.

A slight headache.

"Xiaorong." She called.

Yuan'er responded and flashed from the side: "Miss, Yuan'er is here." ”

Shen Qingluo was taken aback: "When did you come back?" Why are you standing behind you so quietly? ”

Yuan'er's face was a little pale, which was easily reminiscent of a ghost in the night.

"What's wrong with you? It looks like it needs to be well recuperated for a while. Shen Qingluo was a little worried.

This girl, I don't know when, has become a little incomprehensible.

"Miss," Yuan'er's voice was a little hoarse, and her voice was very low: "I bought some of the fruits you like, I don't know, do you like them or not." Slowly, she took a handkerchief from her waist and spread it out.

When Shen Qingluo looked at it, it was full of red and glamorous hawthorn fruits.

Shen Qingluo's mouth immediately gave birth to sour liquid, and her eyebrows and eyes seemed to be smiling: "Yuan'er, you are still considerate." ”

With a hand, he took a piece of fruit and put it in his mouth.

"That's good. I miss the sour taste. That day, outside the Taoist temple, I picked one, which was really refreshing. Shen Qingluo said.

Yuan'er said faintly: "Miss can like it, Yuan'er is very happy." ”

Two

Steward Li hurriedly came in from outside, only thinking about things, and was caught off guard, and collided with an oncoming person.

Steward Li rubbed his forehead, a little annoyed: "Who is so reckless?!" ”

The man sneered, "Steward Li, you're so busy." ”

When Steward Li raised his eyes, he immediately accompanied him with a smile on his face: "Who should I be?" It turned out to be a Yuan'er girl. ”

Yuan'er straightened her slightly messy hair, and said lightly: "Big housekeeper, have you forgotten all the things that the master explained?" ”

Steward Li was taken aback: "How do you know?" ”

Yuan'er laughed: "Madame's body is the top priority, who in this house doesn't know?" Are you still pretending to be confused? ”

Steward Li suddenly said, "It turns out that you are right about this. I'm still ······."

Yuan'er said, "What do you think? ”

Steward Li said with a smile: "Madame's business is naturally a big deal. I have already instructed you to be more careful with food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Miss Yuan'er, if there is anything missing, I hope to point out and take care of it. ”

Yuan'er smiled and said: "You are the old steward of the Shen family, and now that you have come to Nanfu, you are still a first-class housekeeper, and you naturally know how to prioritize everything." Where do I need guidance? ”

Steward Li was confused: "So, Miss Yuan'er, what are you looking for me?" Let's put it bluntly. ”

Yuan'er Gege smiled: "Look at your age, I won't joke with you." Let me ask you, do you know what fruit Madame likes? ”

Steward Li breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It turns out that this is the case." I arranged for someone to buy fresh fruit every day and deliver it to the lady's room. Madame is still satisfied? ”

Yuan'er said with a smile: "The fruit is not a lot, but whether it fits the heart." ”

Steward Li bowed down and said, "The girl is the person who waits beside Madame, so she naturally understands Madame's preferences. Please advise me on request. ”

Yuan'er smiled slightly: "Madame likes to eat sour." ”

Steward Li immediately said, "Hawthorn? ”

Yuan'er smiled: "You guessed accurately. But there's one more thing you might not expect. ”

Steward Li was a little impatient: "Don't let me guess, good girl, I'll treat you to a snack tomorrow." ”

Yuan'er smiled: "Naturally, it's sweet and white longan." ”

Steward Li smiled: "It turns out that Madame likes this." It's easy to do, I asked someone to buy it and send it every day. ”

Yuan'er said with satisfaction: "If you do a good job, Mrs. will naturally be happy, and when the master comes back, he will definitely reward you heavily." ”

Steward Li sighed: "We are subordinates, we just hope that we will not make a fork, and we will be overjoyed, where do we dare to expect a reward." Mrs. I grew up watching since I was a child, and I just hope that she can be safe and give birth to a little master, and I will be relieved. ”

Yuan'er sneered: "I can't see it, you are still sentimental." Madame knows, maybe how touched. ”

Steward Li patted the soil on his body and said a little tiredly: "If it's okay, I'll go first." I just came up from the mountains and was very tired. ”

Yuan'er nodded and said, "You can rest." Don't forget the errands. ”

Steward Li smiled: "The little girl's family is quite chatty." Can't forget. ”

"Steward Li," Yuan'er said a little coquettishly, "Don't tell others, I said it." It also seems that you are thoughtful, don't you? ”

Steward Li laughed: "Okay, don't tell others." He waved his hand away.

Yuan'er casually picked up a brightly blooming flower, crushed the petals, and threw them on the ground.

She knew that from today onwards, Shen Qingluo's dining table would never be inseparable from these two things.

Her face flashed with a kind of beauty that had become bewitching because of excitement.

Three

Steward Li stood respectfully in the hall, holding a booklet in his hand.

Shen Qingluo said gently: "Steward Li, please take a seat." What do you want me to do? ”

Steward Li put the booklet flat on the table in front of Shen Qingluo: "Madam, this is the family's accounts for half a month, please look at it." ”

Shen Qingluo glanced at the booklet and said with a smile: "Steward Li, you watched me grow up, how can I trust you." You don't have to look at it, it's up to you. ”

Steward Li said, "Mrs. Xie trusts. It's just that there is a large amount of silver expenditure, and the villain does not dare to make decisions without permission, and needs the permission of his wife. ”

Shen Qingluo said: "What is it used for?" ”

Steward Li hesitated: "This, the master wants to buy a piece of land." It was ordered by the old man before leaving. ”

Shen Qingluo was slightly stunned: "Why haven't you heard the master talk about it?" Since it is the master's command, then do it. ”

Steward Li said: "The use of a huge amount of money requires the signature of the lady before it can be withdrawn in the bank. ”

Shen Qingluo suddenly said: "Oh." Yes. ”

Steward Li handed over a piece of paper and spread it on the table.

Xiao Rong sent pen and ink in time.

Shen Qingluo looked at the number and hesitated slightly: "So many?" ”

The hesitation was only for a moment, and then the pen was quickly put to paper.

She signed her name very skillfully, and then, taking out a delicate jade from her waist, she sighed vigorously, and pressed it down heavily on the paper.

The remaining marks on the delicate jade are deeply imprinted on the paper.

Shen Qingluo solemnly handed the paper to Steward Li: "Take it." Do a good job of the things that the master has explained. ”

Steward Li took it carefully and nodded.

Yuan'er came in from outside, holding a red plate in her hand and gently placing it on the table.

"Miss, this is freshly boiled lotus seed white fungus porridge, you can drink it while it's hot." She said softly.

Shen Qingluo took the handkerchief handed by Xiao Rong, and said with concern while wiping her hands: "Didn't you tell you to rest?" Why did it get up again? I don't have a shortage of manpower here, and the old lady has transferred a few new people. ”

Yuan'er said: "The new girl, how can you understand Miss's thoughts?" ”

Shen Qingluo said: "You have served me for many years, so you are naturally caring. I'm just worried about your body. ”

Yuan'er smiled and said, "Let's be girls, how can we be so delicate." Nowadays, it's your body that counts. Take care of your body, and next year, you will be able to add a little master. When the time comes, my uncle doesn't know how happy he is. ”

Shen Qingluo looked down at her stomach, and her face showed a happy longing: "I don't know if he likes his son or his daughter?" ”

Yuan'er said lightly: "As long as the child is born safely, I think my uncle will like it." ”

Shen Qingluo smiled, picked up the lotus seed soup, and put it into her mouth one by one.

I had just eaten two bites, and suddenly a wave of nausea came over me, and I hurriedly put down the bowl.

Yuan'er casually picked up a few hawthorns from the fruit bowl on the table, and said eagerly: "Come, eat one, suppress your appetite." ”

Shen Qingluo took it without hesitation and put it in her mouth.

"Are you feeling better?" Yuan'er asked.

Shen Qingluo stroked her chest and gasped, "It's really much better." ”

Yuan'er smiled: "This hawthorn is really a good thing." Steward Li is really good. ”

Shen Qingluo smiled and said, "Before the husband left, he specially explained Steward Li." She stood up, looked at the clear sky outside the window, and said leisurely: "People say that Luoyang Peony is the best in the world, but I don't know, he is prosperous, when will he come back?" There was a faint melancholy in his words.

Yuan'er quietly looked at Shen Qingluo's slender back and sighed secretly.

For more than ten years, the love of master and servant who have been in love with each other, at this time, is like the floating clouds floating in the sky, little by little, blurred in front of her eyes.

All this is just for that merry man.

However, the spring heart is full of flowers, and every inch of acacia is gray.

Who will that merry man care about?
