Tangled

Chapter 8 Gold Treasure Silver Treasure
After she leaned over, the unique daughter's fragrance floated over faintly, and entered the lungs with her breath.

Gu Tingshu rubbed his thumb and index finger, and his eyes fell on her socks that had loosened a few threads.

Usually, he would not even spend money to make a few clothes so as to save money, but now he wants to use money to let the kitchen cook some good dishes.

Even though he didn't dare to take money when he came to eat in the kitchen, she still had a heart.

"Have someone tell the kitchen that you can eat whatever you want in the future, and the portion that exceeds the monthly limit will be delivered from the Changfeng Pavilion."

"You take a good rest, I'll come back later."

Although she knew that the previous sentence was not meant for herself, Shen Qiqi still nodded in response.

"Well, I see."

She obediently responded with a soft tone, and Gu Tingshu took a second look before getting up and walking out.

Nanny He went out after her, and she spoke only when she reached the gate of the courtyard.

"The servant is bored seeing the girl staying in the house every day. A few days ago when I was cleaning the warehouse, I found some notebooks. The girl can use it to relieve boredom."

"It's just that the girl is afraid that the old lady will not like it if she finds out, so she dare not say anything about it."

The book is too complicated, with too many love affairs between men and women, the old lady didn't bother to read what she could have read, so she just blocked them all outside.

If it wasn't for Gu Tingshu's lack of control, the mansion might not even be able to find a single page of scriptures.

Since He Nanny dared to tell Shen Qiqi, she saw some miscellaneous notes and interesting folk stories in it, so her daughter's family would be fine with it.

"Go and pick some she likes, it's just a storybook, just read it."

She spoke carefully, but Gu Tingshu didn't care much, it was just the whims of some sour talents.

The stories of those young lady scholars are not available in reality, so they are entrusted on paper, so as to fulfill their wishful thinking.

"A few pieces of jewelry were appreciated in the womb a few days ago, and I found them all for her. Let her pick out anything that looks interesting."

Although the number of jewels that are rewarded in the palace is not much, they are all the best. The other girls in the mansion only have two or three pieces over the years.

Give it all to the girl, I'm afraid it will attract people's hatred.

Nanny He glanced at Gu Tingshu quietly, seeing that he didn't seem to be thinking about it, so she whispered.

"If only girls have it, I'm afraid it's hard to explain to the old lady."

"Then bring out some more and let her choose first." After Gu Tingshu finished speaking, he didn't wait for Madam He to continue speaking, and walked away with a flick of his sleeve.

Although there were not many things that were newly rewarded, they were all packed up, and two boxes were full.

With a candied fruit in her mouth, Shen Qiqi stared straight at it.

It was the first time she had seen so many good things when she grew up so big, she couldn't see them all.

"Girl, this is the book that the young master told me to bring, and the records are all folklore. The young master said it's okay to read."

Nanny He put a stack of books in her arms on the kang table, and then handed the box forward.

"Look, girl, this is a gold hairpin inlaid with turquoise flowers that was awarded by the girls in the palace. You can't find a few copies in the entire capital city."

"The young master said that you can pick and use these jewelries first, and then send them to the girls in each courtyard."

Nanny He spoke happily, but Shen Qiqi didn't move.

She doesn't want to share these good things with others, but since she wants to share them, she can't pick them first.

If you let other sisters know that the jewelry you got was left over by someone else, if you don’t say it on the face, you don’t know how to respond in your heart.

"Mommy, let's put away the things first, and wait for my cousin to come back."

Nanny He responded, asked the two servant girls to carry the things down, and then asked, "How do you plan to put the two little servant girls back?"

"These two maids are good, but the old slave always thinks that the two of them are not very clever, and their eyes are dull."

The maid sent by the young master must be a good one, but the girl is soft-tempered, without a clever maid to accompany her, it is not very good after all.

The old ones can still make do with it, but there are no girls who go out to take the old lady, so I still have to pick two smarter ones to come back.

While they still have some energy, teach them slowly, and accompany the girls when they get married, which is also a powerful assistant.

"Mommy is very right, but I don't have any suitable candidates. If Mammy has one, I'll take it to Brother to have a look."

Shen Qiqi was really not good at judging people, so she subconsciously wanted to ask Gu Tingshu for help.

"Since the girl trusted the old slave, the old slave boldly recommended it to the girl."

"The two daughters who are in charge of the chariots and horses in the backyard have been clever since they were young, and they are also quick-spoken. The girls will definitely be comfortable with it."

The backyard steward?
Shen Qiqi glanced at Nanny He, a little puzzled, "Does Nanny and the chariot steward have human relations?"

She still doesn't know that Nanny He has such a wide relationship.

Mother He snorted, "What does this old slave have to do with him, it's just that those two little girls are really clever."

"When the young master is free, the old slave will take it for the young master to have a look at. If it is suitable, he will train him and send it to the girl."

Shen Qiqi nodded, "Just listen to Mammy. By the way, I don't know the people my cousin sent. Mammy let them in."

The two servant girls have practiced martial arts since they were young, and they have developed good skills. Their palms are full of old and new cocoons.

Shen Qiqi took a closer look at them one by one, then looked at her own palms, and then silently retracted them into her sleeves.

"What's your name?"

"If you want to return to the girl, the maidservant is called 26/27."

"2627?" Shen Qiqi blinked, "Why is this name so strange?"

Nanny He stood by and took the words with a smile, "Perhaps the young master picked them up casually when he brought them back. Now that they belong to girls, let's give them a new name."

The master is indeed free to name the servant who has sold himself, but Shen Qiqi has never chosen one, but she has some interest, and puts the book back when she holds it in her hand.

"Do you still remember the name your father gave you?" She took a handful of watermelon seeds, divided them into four, and ate them slowly.

Nanny He, who also got a small share, shook her head and laughed. She is quite old, and her teeth are not very useful. How can she eat such delicate things.

Sitting aside, Nanny He took the scissors and slowly peeled them in the bowl.

The two little maids were dumbfounded, they didn't know anything else, they only knew that they must listen to the master's words, so they ate watermelon seeds when they were given them.

Shen Qiqi patted the soft couch and motioned them to sit down.

The two servant girls looked at each other, and finally turned their heads to look at Nanny He. Seeing that the other party raised her eyes, she went to move a small stool to sit on.

"As for the girl, I will naturally remember the name my father chose, but Master Hou said that after selling the body, it will not belong to me anymore."

"So the name and so on, naturally follow the master."

"The girl doesn't know that my father loved our sisters very much when he was alive, and would pick a lot of wild flowers for us every time he went into the mountains."

"When the two of us got older, they took us into the mountains to catch rabbits. The rabbits ran fast with sharp ears, and the two of us often threw ourselves into the dirt and couldn't catch them..."

As soon as the two of them talked about the past, they had fun, and they didn't even call themselves slaves, and laughed from time to time.

When Nanny He heard this, she frowned, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Shen Qiqi's brows and eyes were smiling, so she sat down again.

Forget it, they're still little girls, and it won't work if you control them too tightly, and the girls are so happy, so let them go.

The three little girls got together, and there were endless topics to talk about. The sun was rising above their heads, and they were still talking about it.

Seeing that Nanny Zhang had already set up the lunch, and they didn't intend to stop, Nanny He had to cough twice.

A little carried away from the chat, Shen Qiqi smiled embarrassedly, "I was so fascinated by what I just heard, I forgot what your father gave you names."

"Father named him Jinbao."

"Father gave the silver treasure."

The two maidservants are only one year apart, and they are from the same mother. Their looks are very similar. At this moment, their eyebrows and eyes are bent, as if they were printed from the same mold.

"Jinbao and Yinbao, your father really treats you as treasures. If that's the case, let's keep this name."

They can use the names given to boys by ordinary people, which proves that their father loves them very much.

It's just a name, it's not a big deal, so let's keep it.

Jinbao and Yinbao looked at each other, they were both overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down to express their thanks.
