Chapter 6 Feelings
The Huaibi Courtyard was buzzing with chatter, and the maids gathered around.

"Don't move!"

Jiang Shiyi's face was covered with plaster, but Lu Zhan was still applying it to her, "Does it hurt?"

"It hurts!" Jiang Shiyi said, Liu Dalang hit her too hard, and her face was so swollen that it turned into a steamed bun.

Hosta came over with a bowl of dark soup. Jiang Shiyi shook his head and said pitifully, "I don't want to drink medicine."

Lu Zhan dangled a silver ingot at his fingertips, "Shi Yi, as long as you drink the medicine, I will give this to you."

"I'll drink it, I'll drink it!" Jiang Shiyi took the bowl and drank the medicine in one breath. She put the bowl down and a candied fruit was immediately stuffed into her mouth. Lu Zhan laughed, "Do you want some more?"

"do not want!"

Zisu and Danqing looked at each other with mixed feelings in their hearts. The second master had never been so kind to any little maid.

Zi Su felt sour. She couldn't compare to Haitang, and someone with no background like Jiang Shiyi had climbed up on her head.

Lu Zhan asked Daxue and Xiaoxue to carry a small box, "Shi Yi, since you love money, just take care of it for me!"

After the box was opened, she was blinded by the box full of gold, jewelry, and silver ingots. "This is all my private money, and I will leave it to you from now on."

"Wow!" Everyone exclaimed!
Jiang Shiyi rested in the room for three days and then went into the main room to work as an errand.

When Zi Su saw her coming in, she dusted her with a feather duster, making big movements with her hands.

An indescribable smell filled the room again, and Jiang Shiyi sighed inwardly.

Zi Su rolled her eyes and said, "Some people! They are really lucky. They have only been here a few months and have become first-class maids. Unlike us, we don't understand anything and will not make those charming people It’s such a dirty trick, we’ll have to step aside from now on!”

Yuhan stood up and said, "Can you please stop arguing? Isn't it good for everyone to be harmonious? Why is it that after Haitang left, you started again? Do you want to be like Haitang?"

Hosta is getting older and will be leaving home to get married soon, so she doesn't want to fight anymore.

"Are you also of one mind with her?" Zisu defended unconvinced.

"What does it mean to have a single heart? Shi Yi is always friendly with us, can't we all just do our jobs well? Why are you doing this?"

While Hosta was talking, Lu Zhan walked in with a gloomy face, "What are you arguing about?" but his eyes were looking at Zisu.

Zisu knelt on the ground, "Second Master, I was wrong."

Lu Zhan sat on the chair and said nothing.

The whole morning passed peacefully, just when everyone thought the incident was over. In the afternoon, Nanny Xie, who was beside Xie Zhaoyu, came over and walked out crying with a hosta, a purple su, a few maids, and a baggage.

Jiang Shiyi was stunned.

Auntie scolded her as she walked away, "Why are you crying? The second master said that there are too many people around him, and the prince's wife will give you new errands."

Zi Su glanced at Jiang Shiyi hatefully. Grandma Xie passed by Jiang Shiyi and said, "The girl is blessed with great fortune."

After Zisu and the others left, Huaibiyuan finally became quiet. Jiang Shiyi treated the remaining maids Daxue and Xiaoxue better, and the days passed slowly like this.

First-class maids are treated well, with more monthly money, more rewards, living in a single room, and two younger maids to take care of them.

On this day, Jiang Shiyi felt happy as he counted his coins.

And the workload is also very easy! She would send Lu Zhan to the clan school in the morning and go to the school to practice martial arts in the afternoon, so she would have nothing to do.

Jiang Shiyi slept on the pedal and stayed up all night. Lu Zhan couldn't sleep, so he lay beside the bed and talked to her, "Shiyi, what do you like to do?"

"There's nothing I like." Jiang Shiyi shook her head. She liked money, wanted to leave the Lu family, wanted to open a shop, and wanted her parents to live a good life, but she didn't dare to say it.

"Since you have nothing to do, let me teach you how to read. You can write a thousand characters a day first. Start slowly!"

"I...I don't have time to write." I actually just want to lie down!
"Why don't you have time to write? I go to class in the morning and go to the school in the afternoon, and you start writing." Lu Zhan sat up and said.

Lu Zhan kept his promise and brought her a thick stack of paper when he got up, "You write first!"

When Jiang Shiyi was five years old, her mother also taught her to write. Although the writing was not very good, it was still well done. However, in a place like the Hou Mansion, she knew that it was taboo to hide her clumsiness and show off her sharp edge.

Lu Zhan casually wrote the word "big" with an iron hook and a silver hook, which penetrated the back of the paper. Although Lu Zhan was the prince of the Marquis, he had the reputation of being a scholar. Later, the Marquis said that he wanted to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, so he refused to let him go. In his exams for merit and fame, he mainly practiced martial arts.

Jiang Shiyi's handwriting was like a dog crawling. She looked at Lu Zhan, and the ink dripped down, making the written words messy. Her hands were full of ink.

"Oh, why are you so stupid!"

"Come here! I'll teach you."

Although the boy was only sixteen years old, he was tall and tall, half a head taller than her. Because he often danced with guns and sticks, his hands were very long and had some thin calluses, which tightly wrapped her hands. "This big character has Write like this, use the pen like this, do you understand?"

"Got it! Got it!"

Jiang Shiyi wrote slowly on the paper. The paper was the best rice paper from "Chengxintang". The writing was very smooth. The pen traveled on the paper and at the same time left a slippery mark in her heart.

Lu Zhan looked at Jiang Shiyi. She was standing in front of him, exposing her snow-white and smooth neck. Further down, the girl had developed well and had exquisite curves. Lu Zhan felt that his hands were sweating a lot.

The room suddenly became so quiet! Jiang Shiyi really hoped that someone would come in and break the calm. She was on night watch tonight, and the others had gone to bed long ago.

Lu Zhan let go and Jiang Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

"How stupid!" Lu Zhan raised Jiang Shiyi's hand. The palm was very white and the bones were slender. "Tell me, your hands are so beautiful, but why are you so stupid? You can't embroider well, and you can't write well either. , tell me what you can do?"

"I can't do anything, but my mother said I just need to be loyal to my master."

"When you speak, it's your mother who says it. What else did your mother say?"

Mom said a lot. Mom wanted to tell her that she was too eye-catching and told her not to be so smart. If she was too smart, she would be targeted by the young master of the Hou family. Mom said that those high-ranking families were like dens of tigers and wolves, and they would eat people without spitting them out. It's like bones. Mom just managed to get out of there. How could she let her daughter go in?

But she had no choice. When the Marquis went to Zhuangzi to choose a family to have children, other people rushed to get there, and even paid to bribe her. In those days, her mother didn't let her go out. She just went out to give her father something. Let the grandma in the house see it.

My mother disagreed, so she said, "Your daughter is a good material, I will train her well."

Nanny had to let her go in the end, and mother had no choice.

"It's time to go to bed! It's getting late."

Jiang Shiyi turned around and made Lu Zhan's bed.

Lu Zhan rolled around in boredom on the bed, "Why don't you sleep?"

Is not this nonsensical? If the master doesn't sleep, how dare the maid sleep?

"Shi Yi, do you want to go home?"

Of course she thought about it. After entering the house and becoming a slave, how could she miss home?

"Then what is my country like? I haven't been to the country yet."

"The countryside is very fun. In the summer, you can fish and row boats. In the winter, you can go to the mountains to pick wild fruits. If you are lucky, you can even encounter rabbits. Rabbits are delicious when roasted. All you need to do is sprinkle a little salt on them."

Life in the countryside sounds free and comfortable, but Jiang Shiyi only knows that it is because Jiang Kejian and his wife are good to him. Other families are not like him. Girls have to take care of younger brothers and sisters when they are very young, and they have to do a lot of farm work. .

Jiang Shiyi's voice lowered as he spoke.

Lu Zhan was lying on the bed, thoughtful.
