Chapter 139

Xiao Baozhu was promoted to a position. After becoming a concubine, she no longer needs to live with her servants. She can live in a side room, and her maid a Zhi can also be sent by her.

At the same time, she doesn't need to do any more rough work. On weekdays, she helps housekeeper Wang manage the account books and calculate the expenses of the family.

At the beginning, the king squire helped to settle accounts together, but since he had Xiao Baozhu, he was too lazy to do these jobs. He asked Xiao Baozhu to calculate and have a look at it again.

At the same time, he also paid attention to Xiao Baoshan. He didn't need Xiao Baozhu to do rough work. He gave her money every month. Xiao Baozhu could use the money to buy some skin care cream.

Ye Xiaoxian told her that women must pay attention to maintenance.

Xiao Baozhu's clothes have also changed. In the past, when she was doing heavy work, she couldn't wear too good clothes to avoid getting dirty and broken. But now that she is a concubine and has money, she can dress appropriately every day.

Xiao Baozhu became bright at once. The whole people's Congress changed. The servants in the house no longer dared to look down on her.

However, even so, Wang Xiucai is still too lazy to look at Xiao Baozhu. His heart is still on Qin Qingqing.

He thinks Qin Qingqing has no plan. Qin Qingqing is originally a crystal clear precious jade. Even if he becomes a concubine, Xiao Baozhu is also a stone mixed with jade. What if there is jade embellishment on the surface, it is still a stone in essence.

Wang Xiucai wrote a poem for Qin Qingqing, saying that her "pale eyebrows are like autumn water, jade muscles are accompanied by light wind", and she still talks with Qin Qingqing every day.

Xiaocui had been guarding against Xiao Baozhu. Later, when she saw that Wang Xiucai was still very good to her young lady, but she didn't even look at Xiao Baozhu, Xiaocui was relieved.

That day, Xiao Baozhu came out of the room.

Spring is over, and now it is early summer.

She stretched out first and looked at the sunshine on a rose in the yard. There was a colorful butterfly flying around. The picture looked very beautiful.

Xiao Baozhu sighed at the beautiful scenery on a beautiful day: if it is really a creation that makes people, if you don't stick to it, you will never know what kind of person you will become.

Last year, she was just a country girl who went up the mountain to cut firewood every day. Fortunately, her sister-in-law came out to sell jelly and taught her to read and calculate accounts. In the Wang family, hard is hard, but it honed her mind and will and made her strong and resourceful.

After that, there was no difficulty to bring her down.

After sighing, Xiao Baozhu saw a Zhi carrying a broom ready to clean the yard.

A Zhi also saw Xiao Baozhu. She couldn't help turning her eyes at Xiao Baozhu and muttering: a small man can succeed.

Xiao Baozhu smiled and then walked towards a Zhi.

"I have some laundry in my room. Take it out and wash it."

A Zhi listened and suddenly looked up at Xiao Baozhu: "let me help you wash your clothes?"

"No?" Xiao Baozhu asked.

A Zhi was so angry that she shook her fists. After a while, she sneered again: "at best, you are just an aunt and a concubine, and your status is just a little higher than ours. Do you really think you are a wife? If you think you are a wife, you have to see whether the young master thinks highly of you."

Xiao Baozhu sneered, "it's one thing if I don't take myself as my wife, but it's another thing if you don't take yourself as your servant. Ah Zhi, don't think I don't know what you've done before. There was a jade pot in the young master's house, which he seldom used. Later he lost it for some reason. Did you take it as your wife?

In the past, there was a Persian chrysanthemum in the yard, but it disappeared later. You told the young master that the Persian chrysanthemum was dead. In fact, you took it out and sold it. In addition, when you were washing clothes, you picked up a jade pendant and lied that it was gone... In addition, you stole leftovers from the kitchen to feed your lazy brother. Have you forgotten all these things? "

"You... Xiao Baozhu, you watch me!" A Zhi shivered with anger.

Xiao Baozhu sneered: "I used to have no way to take you, because I was also a servant. People talk lightly, but now it's different. I stay with the master every day. Whether you can stay in this yard and work is just a matter of my word."

Seeing that a Zhi didn't dare to say anything, Xiao Baozhu smiled: "do you still wash the clothes in my house?"

After a while, a Zhi finally bit his lip and said, "OK, I'll wash it!"

When a Zhi came out with dirty clothes, Xiao Baozhu raised her hands and looked at them. Then she said, "after so long hard work, it's rough. I must take good care of you in the future."

……

"Ye, Baozhu sent someone to report today!"

"Xiao family food", as soon as ye Xiaoxian arrived at the restaurant, Li Hongmei happily told her the news of Xiao Baozhu.

"Baozhu sent someone? What did you say?" Asked Ye Xiaoxian.

"Baozhu said that she is now promoted to be a concubine. She doesn't have to work hard. Even if she counts the account book every day, she doesn't have to do anything else. Her clothes are washed by someone." Li Hongmei was so excited that she burst into tears.

Ye Xiaoxian asked, "Baozhu sent someone to say it? Can these words be taken seriously?"

"Yes, it's a letter from a young fellow of the Wang family. In addition to the message, Baozhu also asked people to bring some things. She said she bought them with her regular money. Alas, Baozhu didn't have to be a rough servant girl after she had been cooking for so long."

Ye Xiaoxian smiled and felt happy for Baozhu.

"Niang, Baozhu is a smart girl. She knows what she wants and knows how to plan for herself. We don't have to worry about her."

"But you don't know. My heart, alas, has been worried about her these days, but the Wang family is very proud and won't let us go to see the jewels."

Ye Xiaoxian said with a smile, "now that Baozhu is a concubine, she should be able to go. If you don't trust me, you can go there in the afternoon."

"Are you going?" Li Hongmei asked.

Ye Xiaoxian smiled: "I won't go. In the afternoon, I want to go to the wharf to find Baoshan and see if he is there."

Li Hongmei said with a bad smile, "Miss Baoshan?"

"I haven't seen you for a long time. Naturally, I think a little." Ye Xiaoxian is generous and authentic.

"OK, then I'll find Baozhu and you'll find Baoshan!" Li Hongmei was overjoyed.

……

In the afternoon, ye Xiaoxian and Li Hongmei were divided into two groups.

Ye Xiaoxian changed her light clothes and covered her face with a headscarf. She dressed like an ordinary peasant woman.

When you go out alone, it's always good to have a little embankment.

There are people coming and going by the dock, and there are ships everywhere on the river.

Ye Xiaoxian thinks of Xiao Baoshan saying that he is responsible for long-distance ships. Long-distance ships are usually big ships. Ye Xiaoxian just needs to go to the side of the big ship to find Xiao Baoshan.

Sure enough, she saw xiaobaoshan from a distance.

The tall xiaobaoshan is patrolling on the dock. It looks very outstanding among a group of traffickers and pawns.

The corners of Ye Xiaoxian's mouth rose unconsciously.

After a while, she walked behind xiaobaoshan and patted xiaobaoshan on the shoulder.

Xiao Baoshan looked back and saw Ye Xiaoxian. His face, which seemed to be covered with thin ice, turned into a warm sun in an instant.

"Leaves? Why are you here?" Xiao Baoshan took her hand and loved her very much.

"I can't come?" Ye Xiaoxian asked.

"Naturally, I can come, but I still don't come here. Today, I happen not to follow the boat. If I follow the boat, you won't find me. There are everyone on the dock. I'm afraid you'll be bullied."

Ye Xiaoxian said, "aren't people coming and going in the restaurant? The people coming are also complex. When did you see me afraid?"

"That's different. There are women in the restaurant, ah Wu and ah Liu. Uncle and third uncle occasionally patrol that street. The dock is different. If something happens, people don't know who you are. Where will you go?"

Ye Xiaoxian tooted her mouth and said, "but I was bullied in the restaurant. What should I do? Do you want to help me out?"

Xiao Baoshan was really nervous: "have you been bullied? Who bullied you?"

"Bad guys!"

"Is that the tax official last time? The one who asked you to cook in the Yamen?"

Ye Xiaoxian was surprised: "Baoshan, how do you know?"

"I've been a little suspicious since you said he asked you to cook. Leaf, tell me how he bullied you? If he threatened you, I'll give you a tooth for a tooth. If he bullied you, I'll kill him!"

Xiao Baoshan's eyes showed a trace of murderous spirit.

Ye Xiaoxian couldn't help but be afraid.

"Say something." Ye Xiaoxian looked at all the people around. It was also on the dock. A man and a woman stood here, which was easy to watch.

No, the thin monkeys not far away whistled at them.

Xiao Baoshan immediately said, "wait for me here. I'll talk to Xing San."

……

When Xiao Baoshan and ye Xiaoxian left the dock, Xing Sanzheng stood on the dock and watched them leave.

Xing San held his hands on his chest, narrowed his eyes, and then said to the thin monkey: "Xiao Baoshan is quite good for his mother."

The thin monkey said, "it's not only good. When his wife came, Xiao Baoshan looked like a different person. He seemed like a big fool. He didn't care about everything around him."

Xing San shook his head and said, "this man, it's not good to have weakness."

"What do you mean?" Asked the thin monkey.

Xing San didn't answer, but said to the thin monkey, "Xiao Baoshan isn't here. You're guarding his area."

……

In the yard, ye Xiaoxian sits on xiaobaoshan's lap and follows Fang Shanding's bullying process with xiaobaoshan.

It's not that she wants to sit on xiaobaoshan's lap, but that xiaobaoshan must let her sit. She said she didn't hold her for too long and wanted to be on the dock. Ye Xiaoxian had to be held by him.

It's good to hug. These days, she has been depressed because of the tax money of 9 liang of silver.

Now that she saw Xiao Baoshan and was held in his arms, she was relieved.

After listening to Ye Xiaoxian, Xiao Baoshan fondled Ye Xiaoxian's face and said softly, "leaf, you've been wronged during this time."

"Can you solve this problem for me?" Ye Xiaoxian is half coquettish and half command.

"My husband naturally wants to stand out for you."

"How do you stand out?" Asked Ye Xiaoxian.

Xiao Baoshan smiled: "don't worry, I have my own idea!"

Ye Xiaoxian poked her finger into his chest and said charming, "then you keep your word. If you don't, I won't let you enter the door."

"..." Xiao Baoshan was so caught up by Ye Xiaoxian's words that he held her tightly in his arms and said again, "I always keep my word!"

He will try his best to get into her room.
