time travel farm girl

It was already a month after the group arrived in Deyi Prefecture.

As Xiulan said, this small town near the sea has towering rocks and lush forests.Although it is midsummer, the salty sea breeze blows on people with a touch of heat and humidity, but it has just the right amount of coolness.

Mei Shengyu sent someone to deliver the letter earlier, so when the carriage entered the city, the local steward led the assistant to wait outside the city gate.

After Mei Shengyu greeted the steward and the others, he ordered the steward to open the way ahead, and the group entered the city in a mighty manner.

Along the way, Zisu lay on the carriage and lifted the curtain to look around the road. The bustling streets are paved with green bricks. The shops on both sides of the street are all small buildings along the street with the same color. The first floor is used to attract customers. None of them are exquisitely decorated into elegant guest houses.What's more, when you get to the bustling place, you will see a woman with heavy makeup leaning on the red painted railing, waving a handkerchief in her hand and calling to the men walking in the market frequently.

"What are they doing?" Xiulan looked at Zisu curiously, "Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by such a man who calls out to strangers along the street?"

In a small market like Furong Town, there are no decent brothels like this, and there are only a few private prostitution camps, so I don't blame Xiulan for asking such questions.

Zisu smiled and whispered a few words in Xiulan's ear. After hearing Zisu's explanation, Xiulan's face turned red in an instant, and she let out a fierce "Bah", and said, "I'm really shameless."

"You're wrong." Zisu sighed and looked at Xiulan, and said softly, "It's not that they are shameless, but that face is far less important than life. Everyone wants to live a decent and dignified life, but not everyone has that blessing of!"

As soon as Zisu's words fell, Xiulan puffed up her face and wanted to argue with her, but she didn't know what she thought of, her face froze suddenly, she tilted her face slightly, her brows were tightly furrowed, and she sighed: " You were right, I was wrong."

Zisu didn't pay attention to Xiulan's expression, all her attention was focused on the street market at the moment, there were small vendors setting up stalls outside those famous shops, at this moment, the aunt with a basket They, the ladies with their maids, and the gentle-looking scholars who kept looking at the young women...all of these deeply attracted Zisu.

Seeing the corner from the street, when the carriage turned into a quiet alley paved with bluestone slabs that allowed two carriages to run side by side, Zisu Fang regained her thoughts and looked back at Xiulan. Seeing Xiulan's ugly face, she couldn't help saying softly: "What's wrong?"

"Zisu, I will definitely repay you."

The meaningless words stunned Zisu, before he said, "You are so stupid, how can you talk about this properly?"

"If it weren't for you, I might have the same fate as them." Xiulan's eyes turned red suddenly, she looked at Zisu and said, "Zisu, I will call you Miss from now on, and I will be your maid." .”

Zisu laughed with a "puchi", Miss?Maid!Is there any lady more down and out than her!

He smiled slightly and said: "Don't think too much about it, we are friends. You will work for me in the future and earn back six taels of silver, and you will be free." His eyes moved, and he said: "Of course , during this period, if you can find someone to come and pay back my money together."

Xiulan didn't understand at first, but after understanding the meaning of Zisu's words, she couldn't help but blushed, glared at Zisu and said, "Hey, why are you doing this! I'm serious."

"I'm also serious." Zisu looked at Xiulan, reached out and brushed her hair behind her ears, and said softly: "Xiulan, don't think too low of yourself, remember, you are no worse than others, Just a little bit of luck."

Xiulan looked at Zisu with a gentle expression and a smile in her eyes, leaned slightly, turned her head abruptly, raised her hand to wipe away the tears rolling down her face, nodded and said, "I remember."

Zisu was still waiting for a few more words of persuasion, but the car under her stopped, not wanting to stop.

"It might be."

As Zisu said, she wanted to lift the curtain of the car, but the other one jumped in front of her and opened the curtain.

The next moment, Mei Shengyu's smiling face appeared in front of her eyes, "Miss Tao, we're here."

Xiulan rushed ahead of Zisu, jumped out of the carriage, stood still, and stretched out her hand to help Zisu.

On this side, Zisu had just stood still, and before she could see the mansion clearly, a silver-like laughter sounded in her ears.

"This morning the magpies are chirping non-stop, and the concubine also said that there must be a happy event in this mansion, but I don't think it's just that the master is back."

The coquettish voice sounded, causing a group of people to look forward involuntarily, and saw a graceful figure in peach red walking towards this side, and the sound of rings clinking could be heard from afar.

Zisu raised her eyebrows almost invisible, and quietly raised her eyes to look at Mei Shengyu, but she didn't want to, she didn't see the expression of joy and doting on Mei Shengyu's face, only Mei Shengyu pursed her lips slightly, His eyes sharpened suddenly, and he looked at the slightly thin man in gray robe who was waiting at the door earlier.

"Master..." Sensing Mei Shengyu's displeasure, Fu Bo's face tightened in fright, and he hurriedly stepped forward and lowered his voice: "This old slave has told Aunt He that there are guests visiting with Master... who knows her ...""

Mei Shengyu waved his hand, signaling to the housekeeper, Uncle Fu, that there is no need to say more, and he turned around and ordered the steward who went out of the city to pick them up, "Take all the things you brought back this time and check them out. I'll check the account when I'm done."

"Yes, sir."

The steward led his servants to escort several large carts of goods away. At the door, apart from the housekeeper who came out to greet him, only Mei Shengyu, Zisu and Xiulan were left.

Zisu is currently looking at the two stone lions at the door, and she doesn't know if she has misread it, or what, she always feels that these two stone lions seem to be out of line!

"My concubine has met the master, the master has worked hard all the way, the hot water in the house, the dishes and meals are ready, please..." Aunt He, who was dressed in pink makeup and flower gown, walked forward coquettishly. Glancing at her out of the corner of her eye, Aunt He saw Zisu who was sizing her up unabashedly. The smile on Aunt He's face froze, and she blurted out, "Master, is this your new maid?"

Mei Shengyu's face at this moment can be said to be like ice for three or nine days, he ignored Aunt He, turned his head to look at Uncle Fu, "Is the girl's house tidy?"

"Returning to the master, it has been packed, and it is in the Qingshui Garden of Dongcaoyuan."

Uncle Fu has served Mei Shengyu for decades, so he knows that Mei Shengyu has shown signs of anger because of Aunt He's uninvited speech.And in the letter I received before, my master attached great importance to this young lady Tao, and told her every detail, even explaining what kind of tents to use in the house!It happened that Aunt He opened her mouth and called her a maid.

Mei Shengyu then smiled and turned back to Zisu and said, "Miss Tao, Uncle Fu is my housekeeper, you follow him to wash up first, take a rest, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it later, how about it?"

Zisu saluted Mei Shengyu generously, nodded and said, "OK."

Turning around, I called Xiulan and followed her to the yard, led by Uncle Fu.

"Master!" When Aunt He heard about the Qingshuiyuan in Dongcaiyuan, her heart seemed to be grabbed by something, and she even forgot that Mei Shengyu ignored her from the beginning to the end.She just looked at Mei Shengyu anxiously, and said palely: "How can I let them live in Qingshuiyuan, that's..."

But at this moment, Mei Shengyu suddenly raised his eyes to look at her, and that gaze was like a cold knife, swishing straight at her.Aunt He was so scared that she immediately stopped talking.

Mei Shengyu lifted his robe and strode in.

At the door, Aunt He stared blankly at his figure striding away, and asked the maid beside her, "Caixia, why is Master not happy?"

Caixia shook her head, paused, and said softly: "Auntie, could those two girls who live in Qingshuiyuan be Master..."

Although Caixia didn't finish her words, Aunt He understood the meaning of her words in an instant, she couldn't help but suddenly raised her head, and said with straight eyes: "Impossible! These two girls are so young..."

But halfway through her words, she stopped there.The girl is still young, and she will not be young after two years of raising her!Especially the little one called Miss Tao, who can be seen to be a beauty embryo at a glance. If she grows up, she might not know what she will be like when she grows up!

Moreover, just now the master allocated Qing Shui Cang to her to live in, but she had mentioned to the master for many years that she hadn't been agreed to. She only said that the yard was prepared for the use of the mistress in Beijing.

Now, in the yard where the mistress lives, there are two juicy little girls living in!Aunt He only felt a chill go straight from the bottom of her feet to the bottom of her heart.

"Caixia, let's go see that Miss Tao."

A barely visible smile flashed in Caixia's eyes, and she said to Aunt He: "Yes, Auntie."

However, before the two of them got close to Qingshuiyuan, Uncle Fu brought two rough envoys to this side, bowed to Aunt He, and said softly: "Auntie, the master said he wanted to see you."

"Master wants to see me?" Aunt He looked at Uncle Fu in surprise.

Uncle Fu nodded, stepped back and said, "Yes, the master is waiting for you at the Red Lotus Residence."

Aunt He hurriedly said to Caixia beside her, "Go, let's go back quickly."

There was a flash of astonishment in Caixia's eyes, but she seemed to understand a little bit in the next moment, she quickly followed Aunt He's pace, and said softly: "Auntie, please slow down."

But Aunt He walked faster and faster, and when the master and servant had gone far away, Uncle Uncle stood still, looked up at the Qingshui Garden not far away in the shade of mountains and trees, shook his head with a wry smile , turned around and walked away.

As for Aunt He, who hurried back to Honglianju, after listening to Mei Shengyu's words, she didn't recover for a while.

After a long time, Fang murmured: "Master, you want me to go?"

Mei Shengyu nodded, he had already taken a bath and changed into a stone blue robe, which made him more handsome and elegant.At this moment, she raised her eyes slightly to look at Aunt He and said indifferently: "In this room, you can take away everything that belongs to you."

"I... I don't want anything, I won't leave!" Aunt He burst into tears with a "wow", and hugged Mei Shengyu's feet with a "plop", "Master, why don't you want to be a concubine? Could it be you I really fell in love with those two girls!"

After hearing Aunt He's words, Mei Shengyu's already cold face became even colder. He suddenly lifted his feet, turned around and walked out.

"Grandpa, grandpa..." Aunt He rushed forward.

Caixia hugged Aunt He, and said softly: "Auntie, Master is gone."

***

In Qingshuiyuan.

Xiulan was looking at the room curiously, the luxury she had never seen before made her feel embarrassed that she had nowhere to put her hands and feet.Even standing there, he felt that the stone bricks under his feet were very hot, so he couldn't help but leaned closer to Zisu's side.

"Zisu, is this really for us?"

Zisu smiled wryly and nodded, her gaze shifted from the red sandalwood water drop carved bed to the silk-inlaid red stone smoker under the east window, a thin wisp of smoke was slowly rising from the ruby-studded burner mouth, drift.However, outside the east window, a pool of clear and green water suddenly entered the eyes, and people couldn't help but feel a sense of enlightenment, peace of mind and elegance!

"Since the old housekeeper brought us here, we can't be wrong." Zisu threw away the bundle in her hand, and said to Xiulan, "Let's go, take a bath, and then have a good sleep."

"Hey."

Xiulan agreed, and rushed forward in a hurry, but she didn't realize until she reached Zisu that she didn't know where the clean room was.

Fortunately, at this moment, there was a crisp sound like jade falling into a pearl plate outside the door.

"Girl, the servant Zhuzhi is asking to see you."

"Come in."

As soon as Zisu finished speaking, a moon-white figure walked into the door.After entering the room, he bowed his knees in front of Zisu and said, "Zhuzhi has seen the girl."

Presumably this is Mei Shengyu's maid for her? !Zi Su felt the bitter taste in her mouth getting stronger.

No one in this world would give for no reason. The more Mei Shengyu gave now, the more she was destined to return in the future!

"Bamboo branch." Zisu looked at the bamboo branch with a smile, "Aside from you, how many servants are there in this room?"

Zhuzhi answered Zisu's words with lowered eyebrows, "Responding to the girl's words, besides the slaves, there are Yue'er and Xuexiang." After a pause, she slightly raised the corner of her eyes and said: "Young lady, do you want to call them in?" "

"No need." Zisu waved her hand and said, "I'm tired today, let's try another day."

"Yes."

"Zhuzhi, the girl wants to take a bath, you can lead us to the clean room." Xiulan said to Zhuzhi bravely.

Zhuzhi immediately said, "Miss, please come with your servants." Then he turned around and shouted: "Yue'er, Xuexiang, come in and wait for the maiden to take a bath."

Immediately, two little girls, about eight or nine years old, came in, wearing water-red jackets.

"The slave girl Yue'er (Xuexiang) has seen the girl."

Zisu waved her hand.

The two little girls got up and led Zisu and Xiulan towards another empty room in the house. Four screens of nanmu and primrose-colored carved silk glazed screens divided the room into two. The wooden barrel is filled with rose petals, and the water is steaming.

"You all go out, I will do it myself."

Yue'er and Xuexiang didn't insist, as soon as Zisu finished speaking, they bowed their knees and walked out.

Xiulan rolled up her sleeves, "Zisu, let me help you take a bath."

"You think I'm still young!" Zisu glared at Xiulan angrily, "Go and wash yourself."
