Chapter 32: The Long Term

Tao Yao thought about it for a while, and finally couldn't help but admonish: "I only told you about this alone, you have to help keep it secret." Otherwise, I'm afraid that everyone will chatter, and Xiaoyan won't be able to hang it on her face. ”

Zheng Qiaoyan scoffed when she heard this, and said, "It's all like this outside, how can you keep it secret?" It's better for me to say it, it can be regarded as clarifying it for her, otherwise the mouths of those maids and women will be able to make up any nonsense. ”

Tao Yao sighed: "Yes." ”

Zheng Qiaoyan said: "Don't always worry about her, one person has one life, you can help her for a while, you can't help her for a while, you can't help the poor if you don't help the poor, you can be regarded as benevolent and righteous to her." ”

Tao Yao still smiled lightly at Zheng Qiaoyan: "I also thank you for your help for her." ”

Zheng Qiaoyan flattened her mouth: "You will remember my good for her, but she won't, maybe she still hates me for telling her nonsense."

That person is very awkward, inferior and proud, indifferent and rude, sensitive and suspicious, and rejects people thousands of miles away. You always have to be careful when talking to her, and if you don't know which joke is too much or too little, she will be in her heart, sad, sad, and suspicious.

I had to say whatever I wanted to say with the lady of the Ministry of Rites, but I had to pay attention to it when I talked to her, and it took a lot of effort. In short, that person is very difficult to get along with, and it's no wonder that no one likes her.

Such a person, you are still willing to help her. ”

When Tao Yao heard this, she just smiled faintly: "I help her, it doesn't depend on whether she is worthy of my help, or whether she is worthy of my help." I just see if she needs me to help her. ”

Zheng Qiaoyan just snorted before saying, "Don't tell me those nice things, I don't believe it."

I advise you not to be a maid and a house for nothing, this buy a maid and a woman, they are also particular, the first young and beautiful don't, the second idea is too big, the cleverness is still second, the most important thing is to be loyal and obedient, hard-working.

She doesn't have any of these, she's not a good maid, and she's a classmate with you before, but now she's suddenly your maid, she's embarrassed to serve you, are you embarrassed to use her?

This girl, you still have a few days to train. ”

Tao Yao had a headache when she heard this: "I told my mother before, I don't want the maid to follow, it's all trouble." But fortunately, I only did her a favor this time, and when the matter was over, I tore up the deed and set her free. ”

Zheng Qiaoyan looked at her with a smile: "How can it be so easy?" Think about her, where else can she go except follow you now?

She was homeless, had no money, had nowhere to go, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, and no one took her for work.

Moreover, once they leave you and leave the Purple Silk Pavilion, won't the people of their mother's family inquire about making a comeback?

She can't do without you, and you can't get rid of her. ”

Tao Yao took a deep breath: "Don't scare me. ”

Zheng Qiaoyan laughed at her: "You are passing by and coming to learn the way of the emperor from me." Otherwise, in order to save trouble, you can sell her, but your price is so high, one hundred taels, tsk, it is estimated that it is smashed in your hand, and no one wants to buy it with you. ”

Tao Yao held his forehead: "Okay, okay, okay, you let me think about it." ”

When Tao Yao left Zheng Qiaoyan and went back, the sky was a little dark, Tao Yao felt a little tired, originally going out to meet Chu Ping today, she was a little excited last night, she didn't sleep too well, she woke up early this morning, cleaned up, and met with Chu Ping, and then the old lady of the Qian family, Wu Yan's matter, it was so solid that it was a day of trouble.

It's just that Tao Yao never thought that when she returned to the West Wing, Wu Yan hadn't slept yet.

She was still holding the quilt and weeping.

Tao Yao took a deep breath, and then stepped forward to care about her: "Has the doctor come to see it?" Is it better? Does it still hurt? ”

Wu Yan saw that it was Tao Yao coming, but she only cared: "Are they gone?" ”

Tao Yao nodded with a smile and comforted her: "Well, I have been driven away by Steward Qiu, you don't have to be afraid." ”

Help her this time, Tao Yao doesn't care much, but if it is really as Zheng Qiaoyan said, she will rely on herself for the rest of her life, and Tao Yao is really a little numb.

Tao Yaofu took out the deed of sale sent by Steward Qiu and returned it to Wu Yan, and said, "This thing will be returned to you, whether it is torn or burned, it is up to you." Well...... What are your plans for the future? ”

The word "future" stopped Wu Yan.

She had been sad about the "past" and the "present" in pain, and she never thought that she still had a "future".

What about the "future"?

Tao Yao, as she said, returned the deed of sale, but she was penniless, although the title deed of the house was in her own hands, but now she has no power and no power, she can't go back to the village at all, she can't get it and can't live in that house, even if she buys the house for money, she can't find a way. Where else to go?

Wu Yan took the deed of sale, bowed her head and was silent for a moment before saying, "I...... I don't know. ”

There are indeed too many things that have happened today, and Tao Yao didn't force her, but said: "You don't have to worry about these two days, take care of your body here first, and you can also think about your future plans at the same time." ”

Tao Yao comforted Wu Yan to lie down and fall asleep first, but she couldn't sleep a little after tossing and turning.

She suddenly missed the taste of today's cup of Jin Junmei, and she wanted to get up, hold the lamp, and make herself a cup of tea to drink slowly.

But after all, Wu Yan is still in the house, and she is sad again, Tao Yao doesn't want to disturb her, but suddenly thinks that if she doesn't come back, she will definitely get up and fulfill her heart if she is here alone.

"Hey." Tao Yao sighed, tossed and turned, and finally fell asleep slowly.

The past few days have passed in a flash, and the people of the Wu family and the Wang family have not come to the Purple Silk Pavilion to make trouble again, but the gossip of the past few days has been a joke among the ladies of various families these days, but fortunately, Wu Yan has been hiding in the house to recuperate, and she has never come out to hear anything.

Although Wu Yan is now the identity of a maid, but because the west wing of the second courtyard is already empty with three beds, there is no one waiting to live, and Liu Yunjin did not urge Wu Yan to move from the young lady's house to the maid's ear room.

In February, the Purple Silk Pavilion restarted to teach knitting and embroidery to the girls and ladies of each family, and Tao Yao obediently began to learn needlework in the Purple Silk Pavilion these days, until the tenth day of February, the day of rest.

Today, she is going to Sister Taoyu's house to congratulate her on the joy of giving birth safely.

And, perhaps, to meet the owner of his own box of tea.
