As soon as August is over, when the golden osmanthus is fragrant, Fanhua town ushers in the autumn harvest season of the whole month.
Mammy Liang picked a few strong and smart young men and went to harvest with Lin Si Yao. I wanted to hire some villagers directly. After all, the uncle of Prince Jing's mansion can't do these rough jobs. However, as soon as the suggestion was exported, Lin Shiyao was forced to take it back.
I had to tell the lads to take good care of my uncle. Don't really let him do such heavy work. In fact, no way. The physical strength of the three young men is no match for Lin Shiyao.
When the men went to work, Mammy Liang directed the servant girls to stew mung bean soup, herbal tea and other summer drinks in the kitchen, and made many cakes with different saltiness and sweetness, nutrition and delicacy, which were delivered to the ground on time.
Su Shuifu is accompanied by Chunlan to do some simple embroidery work. When tired, he rests on a soft couch and looks for some leisure books to read. Occasionally, I chat with Chunlan.
It's said that Chunlan's craftsmanship is really not covered. As long as she is famous for her dishes, snacks and drinks, she can make all kinds of dishes, sew all kinds of clothes, shoes and socks. Although the embroidery workers are not as skilled as Su Shuifu, they can hardly find a thread perfectly in the style and stitching of the small pants, belly pockets, shoes and socks. It's no wonder mother Liang wants to arrange Chunlan to serve her closely. I don't know how many times more than the two close servant girls in Suzhou mansion.
"Chunlan, did the old princess let you come here?" One day, Su Shuifu asked Chunlan, who was busy sewing tiger shoes. It's a long way from here. No servant girl would like to come to such a remote and simple village to serve him.
"Miss, Chunlan would like to serve her herself." Chunlan saw Su Shuijin put down the books and sat on the chair in front of the desk. It seemed that she had the intention to chat with her, so she got up and put down her work and made a pot of flower tea with the effect of calming the fetus and nourishing the spirit brought from the imperial capital.
This time, the old prince and the old princess ordered mammy Xia and mammy Liang to search a lot of things, not only for labor, but also for daily use. There are not only exquisite and expensive cloth for food, precious and top-grade tonic tea and drinks, but also small pieces of treasures and gifts. In a word, ten carriages were packed to the brim, and they were not enough to be bought by others.
Chunlan had been working under mammy Xia before. She knew that the old prince and the old princess attached great importance to the fourth young lady.
Xu was exiled for more than ten years before. The old prince and the old princess feel guilty. Xu is now married and pregnant. She is very happy and worried.
How to guess, enough to be sure is that the fourth miss in the old prince and Princess heart position is not low. Even in addition to last year's Prince, the fourth miss was most valued by the old prince and the old princess.
Therefore, which of the selected servant girls and servant girls would not like to come? Even though it is thousands of miles away from the palace, they have long loved this quiet and simple town because of their familiarity. If they are allowed to stay here all their lives, they are willing to do so. At least, now they can go in and out of the house freely, chat freely and breathe fresh air freely like ordinary people. There is absolutely no one step on me. I will only fight for a place for a top-ranking servant girl and add one or two cases of money.
Now they have a single job and no heavy work. When they finish their work, they are free. They can ask mother Liang's permission, borrow some books to recognize the characters, sew some clothes for themselves and make some embroidery decorations. They really live like ordinary farmer's embroiderers.
Moreover, for Chunlan, she has the most important and key reason. Because "he" came, she was more eager to come here.
"He? Who is he? " Su Shuifu answers with a smile.
Ah! How could she have said it inadvertently. Chunlan covers her mouth with fear and shame. "Miss..."
"Let me guess. It's Captain Xiao? " Because, several times sweep to Chunlan to see Xiao bodyguard's eyes are a little different.
Su Shuifu found that Chunlan is also very shy, or that women who fall in love are very shy. Suddenly mischievous heart, determined to be a matchmaker to pass the day. After all, how long and boring it is to have a baby.
"Miss!" Chunlan turns around shamefully. God, the four young ladies, who look so quiet and elegant, even tease themselves. Oh, let her die. How can I go out to meet people.
"Chunlan -" Su Shuigui shook his head with a smile, "I won't say it. Of course, if you want me to talk to bodyguard Xiao on your own initiative, then I'd like to
"Miss! No! " When Chunlan heard this, she could not help being shy. She turned around in a hurry, took Su Shuijin's hand and explained: "Miss, guard Xiao is interested in someone. Don't tell him about me I... " She was speechless with impatience.
"All right, I see." Su Shuizhen listened to her saying, but she also restrained her naughty smile and patted Chunlan's hand, "it's Chunlan, how do you know he's interested in someone?"
"I I heard from other sisters. Xiao used to be the chief bodyguard of Xiangwang mansion. Because of the prince's relationship, he came to our Jingwang mansion for some reason. However, it is said that his favorite is Xiangwang's first-class servant girl. " Speaking of this, Chunlan sighed secretly. The first-class servant girl of the princess, she thought to herself that Xiao would never look at the servant girl here again, even if it was just a light glance.
"In my opinion, Chunlan is very good. She has an outstanding appearance, a gentle temperament and excellent craftsmanship. Even if she really wants to be a first-class servant girl of the princess, it's not impossible." Su Shuizhen's soft voice appeased her. These are her sincere words from the bottom of her heart. A few days together, Chunlan mild good temperament, and excellent cooking sewing workers, she has long been impressed. He also completely bought the stomachs of the two small ones in his family - situ Yun and Tian Dabao.
"Miss It's very kind of you! " Chunlan sniffed and said with a nasal sound. I have been in the palace for more than five years, and no one has ever appreciated her like this. Besides, the target is still the fourth young lady. Which young lady would like to sincerely praise her own servant girl for her outstanding appearance, good temperament and excellent craftsmanship? never. So she was moved to cry, and really cried.
"Wuwuwu......"
"Chunlan..." Su Shuizhen saw her crying like this, and hurriedly handed her silk handkerchief, "Chunlan, did I say something wrong? Or say something you shouldn't say? Don't cry, don't cry... "
Chunlan is more and more moved when she hears that her daughter is in a panic just to comfort her anxious appearance. She simply turns her thoughts of her family for five years and her grievances of depressing life in the palace into tears to let out.
…………
"I'm sorry, it's Chunlan's fault. Chunlan shouldn't be so presumptuous in front of the young lady." Cry to no longer shed tears, choking on the end of the grievance enough, Chunlan just regained consciousness found himself in front of the fourth miss so unbridled. God, it's just not right. If she was in the Imperial Palace, she would lose half her life.
"Nothing. It's when people are sad and sad. It means Chunlan didn't treat me as an outsider. " Su Shuigui smilingly handed over a cup of tea, "OK, enough crying, is it time to cook?" Pointing to the sun outside the house, it has set in the West. It's time for Yao and mammy Liang to come back in autumn.
"Yes, miss! I'm going to cook dinner now. Do you have any special dishes that you want to eat today? " Chunlan wipes the red and swollen eyes, and recovers her normal mild and good temperament. It seems that the previous wailing is just Su Shuifu's dream. However, looking at Chunlan's eyes swollen like peaches, Su Shuifu can't help but look forward to something bad. I wonder if Xiao bodyguard, who is quietly guarding her safety, sees what he thinks?
Well, forgive her for being bored, but I'm really looking forward to it.
"Well, whatever. I'm not picky now. " Su Shuifu hurriedly pushes her out of the hall, glances at Xiao bodyguard standing under the cherry tree in the yard, which is very good and responsive. At least he took a look at Chunlan.
Combined with the crying just now, the swollen eyes now, if there is a play, should it have effect? At least I should go to the kitchen to comfort Chunlan?
Su Shuipeng thought as he walked back to the hall room and took a nap on the pillow on the Kang.
"Miss! Xiao Heng asked for an interview. " Suddenly, a low voice came from the door of the hall.
Su Shuigui opens his eyes, which are confused. Xiao Heng? Xiao Wei? What did he come to see himself for? Shouldn't we go to the kitchen to comfort Chunlan?
"Come in." She bowed her head and dressed herself, sat on the Kang, and shouted.
Xiao Heng is the best of all the bodyguards. He is also very handsome. It's no wonder Chunlan likes him so much. However, compared with his obsidian, he is still inferior.
After a comparison, Su Shuifu waited for his reply.
"Miss I know I shouldn't say that to miss. But... Miss, what mistake did Chunlan make? Let her punish her like this? " Xiao Shiwei, Xiao Heng, kneels in front of Su Shuifu with both legs. He is not humble or arrogant.
Yes, he is questioning himself. Su Shuifu's only feeling. Just, ask yourself what? Punish Chunlan? When did he punish Chunlan?
Su Shuizhen stared at Xiao Heng in front of her eyes, then frowned for a while. "Who said I punished her? What did Chunlan say? "
"No. I heard you... " "Xiao Heng said half, suddenly looked up," miss did not punish her? "
"No." Su Shuizhen said angrily, "since you care about her, why don't you ask her directly? Ask me what I do? "
"Please punish me for my little offence." Xiao Heng collected the embarrassed look on his face, knelt down respectfully, and asked seriously.
"Punishment? Well, I'll punish you to go to the kitchen for me and inform Chunlan that I suddenly want to eat fish soup in the evening. " Su Shuifu took a sip of tea and said solemnly.
"Miss Little leader. " Xiao Heng did not understand to see her one eye, immediately lowered eyebrow eye, respectfully exited the hall. These four young ladies are different from the hearsay.
"It seems that Chunlan is not hopeless, ha ha Just, how did he become the mistress of servant girls? It turns out that the matchmaker is not so good to be Su Shuipeng shook his head with a funny smile, holding his heavier stomach, and went to the gate of the hospital to meet Lin siyao who was coming back from the ground.
