into the bosom

Chapter 76
All the little calculations she had made before going to Ximoju were all in vain, and she still suffered such a big shock - she thought Jing Qin was a good person.

Xu Jiao pulled up the quilt and covered his head and face, unwilling to face... This life is too gloomy.

On the second day, Xu Jiao went to the main courtyard. This time, Qinniang did not stop her, and she also met Mrs. Zhao as she wished.

Mrs. Zhao's face was no longer sick, and she looked no different from the previous two days, even her attitude towards Xu Jiao was the same, as if what happened that day was just Xu Jiao's illusion.

"Mother, are you alright?" Xu Jiao asked with some uncertainty, her eyes fixed on Mrs. Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao frowned and said, "I'm fine! But are you okay? Did you hear what I just said?"

It's just this disdainful tone, it seems that it's really all right!Xu Jiao raised the corners of her lips and smiled, and said calmly, "I was distracted just now, I didn't hear clearly, mother, please say it again!"

Mrs. Zhao glared at her, "Why are you always so careless, child? You will often walk around the nobles in the future, and be careful, and don't lose your life if you get confused." After preaching, seeing Xu Jiao just Squinting and smiling, Mrs. Zhao probably felt a little boring, so she changed the subject and repeated what she just said——

"I just said that you only have Banlan as a personal maidservant, so I told Qin Niang earlier to help her find some suitable ones for you. She has already selected a few, you Palm your own eyes again! If you meet someone who is close to your eyes, you can choose two, and then return Banlan to me."

Xu Jiao's brows and eyes twitched when he heard it, and he said with a sweet smile, "Banlan is very good. Since my mother gave it to me, don't even think about going back. I'll just pick another one." Are they still the eyes of Mrs. Zhao and Qinniang?What is the difference with the current Banlan?It's not as good as Banlan, at least apart from being a bit boring, Banlan's service is also thoughtful and considerate.

"Mother, why don't you help me choose? My mother is more knowledgeable than I am, so you are sure to choose the right one." Xu Jiao added with a smile.

Mrs. Zhao's brows and eyes softened a little, "It's just a rough girl, but you still have to look at this personal servant no matter what! Qin Niang, bring someone here!"

Qin Niang replied yes, turned around and went out, after a while, she led a few girls in and stood in front of her in a row, it was the norm, they all lowered their eyebrows and downcast their eyes.

Xu Jiao was not interested in this matter at all, so he lowered his eyes after taking a glance.

"My maidservant Chunyan has seen Madam and Madam!"

"The maid, Adan, has seen the madam, the lady!"

"The servant girl, negative snow, has seen madam and lady!"

"Maid..."

Hearing a familiar voice and a familiar name all of a sudden, Xu Jiao thought for a moment that she was hallucinating, she suddenly raised her eyes and looked over, and when she hit a pair of eyes, her heart beat like a drum.

However, the five people had already reported their names, and the room was quiet, without hearing Xu Jiao's voice, Mrs. Zhao and Qin Niang all turned their heads to look over.

"Negative snow?" When he muttered, Xu Jiao managed to regain his senses, caught everyone's eyes, and quickly broke into a smile, "That's a good name, Lingfeng knows the strength, and negative snow sees chastity! "She blinked, and quietly blinked away the mist of tears in her eyes, the smile on her lips was not half fake, it was sincere.

"Thank you for your compliment!" The maidservant in green clothes met her eyes, tears flashed across her eyes, she hurriedly lowered her head, her voice slightly hoarse.

"I thought the lady would like this name, so I didn't change it. Moreover, this maidservant once served in a wealthy businessman. She knows the rules and knows a lot of things. The maidservant has passed the school exam, so she is very smart. Useful." Qin Niang laughed beside her.

Xu Jiao suppressed the fluctuations in his heart, glanced at the slightly lowered Xue Xue, took Mrs. Zhao's hand, and said in a tone of anxiety, "A person who is so useful should be served by my mother..."

"You still have a lot of places to employ people in the future! It's not easy to find such a suitable one. Among these few, this is the one that my mother is most satisfied with. It was originally intended for you to use. Can you believe it?" It's the best in the middle! Let Qinniang mention more in the future, and when you go out, I will feel much more at ease."

After Mrs. Zhao finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Lingxue and said, "Lengxue! From now on, you will follow my wife and serve her well! Well done, I will not treat you badly!"

"Yes!" Negative Xue bowed her knees and said hello.

Xu Jiao held back the excitement in his heart, and said obediently, "Thank you mother for taking care of me! From now on, I will be cautious in my words and deeds, so as not to worry my mother!"

"Don't say such beautiful words, if you are really cute, I will have less headache!" Mrs. Zhao waved her hand with a sulky face, "You take someone back!"

"Yes!" Xu Jiao bowed his knees and saluted, and led Banlan and the newcomer Lingxue back to Mingyue Residence.

"Ban Lan, my mouth is a little pale today, I want to drink the crucian carp soup you cooked." Entering Mingyue Residence, Xu Jiao said to Ban Lan with a sweet smile.

Banlan glanced hesitantly at the "newcomer" who kept his eyes on his nose and his heart, answered "yes", turned and left.

Leaving to take a look in the hall, I heard Xu Jiao's voice said lightly, "Lengxue, since my mother asked you to serve me, from now on, in this Mingyue residence, you have to abide by my rules. For some things, we have to speak first... "

When Banlan walked away with confidence, and only Xu Jiao and Lingxue were left in the hall, Xu Jiao winked at Lingxue, said lightly, "Come in with me!" and then turned and entered the inner room.

Negative Xue silently followed behind.

The partition door that separated from the inner room was closed, Xu Jiao couldn't bear it any longer, took a step forward and grabbed Negative Xue's hand, looked at her with teary eyes, and said, "Negative Xue, you are here!"

That's right, this negative snow is that negative snow!It's the same person, not just the same name!

Negative Xue looked at her with excited eyes, "Princess, it's great to see you again. This subordinate is really afraid... If you do something good or bad, this subordinate will have to die to apologize."

"What are you talking about? Tell me quickly, why did you come here?" They didn't know how long they could keep Ban Lan away, so they had to hurry up.

Negative Xue obviously knew this too, so she hurriedly calmed down and said, "That day... Princess... It was my lady. After you fell into the water from the pier, we also escaped from Nanyang Mansion, but we have never found my lady, and my subordinates have been feeling uneasy. I'm afraid that I won't be able to protect my wife." Thinking of the torment of those days, and seeing Xu Jiao who was safe and sound at this time, Lingxue felt sour and tears welled up in his eyes.

Xu Jiao also had mixed feelings in his heart, "Wait! You just said... us?"

Only then did Negative Xue realize, "Didn't the lady see that day? Mr. Helian and the others came to help us!"

The corners of Xu Jiao's mouth twitched twice, his expression shocked.

Negative Xue knew it at a glance, "The lady really didn't see it! If it wasn't for Mr. Helian that day, the subordinates might have died in Nanyang Mansion, and they wouldn't be able to escape, and they would be able to meet with the lady again."
