Chapter 198 Self-help
She quickly regained her senses, walked down the hall with lowered eyebrows and lowered her eyes, and saluted with blessings:

"Su Jiu pays respects to the old lady, best wishes to the old lady!"

The immature voice, the cute and cute appearance, plus the well-behaved greetings, are very lovable.

The old lady has lived for decades, and has never seen anyone. She looked at Su Jiu carefully, and she didn't think this girl was as bad as Gu Mingyu said.

She took a sip of almond tea, "Where did you and your son go last night?"

Su Jiu knew that he couldn't hide the matter of going to Tianxiangyin, so he raised his eyes and said crisply: "Last night, the young master said that he wanted to go to the old dean to learn, so he brought his servants along with him. But the young master is only in Tianxiangyin. After eating two glasses of wine, I didn't mess with anything else."

The old lady gave her an extra look.

I have to say that this little maid is honest and clever.

Although she was born in a poor family and was a servant girl from a lowly family background, the gentle and generous scent of books all over her body looked extremely refined and elegant, and she was no worse than a girl from an aristocratic family.

however……

As the saying goes, knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, she dare not be absolutely sure that this servant girl really has no evil intentions.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case, her grandson's future is no joke.

Thinking of this, she put the almond tea on the table, and said lightly: "As a maidservant, you don't know how to persuade the master to let him go to the smoky place. You really should fight, and it's easy to sell it! But... read When you were still young, I only gave you to the matchmaker. As for whether you will be a blessing or a curse in the future, it all depends on your own good luck. Mingyu, send someone to invite the matchmaker."

Gu Mingyu couldn't help but glanced at Su Jiu triumphantly, and went to find someone in person.

Su Jiu stood in the hall, his slender back was straight, and he still looked neither humble nor overbearing.

In the clear eyes, there is a touch of thought.

She didn't want to be sent to the matchmaker.

Because although the little brother is very bad, he is not bad to her.

If you go to the matchmaker, who knows what the next owner will be like?
She can't afford to gamble!

But the little brother has gone to Jiming Temple now, and he can only return home at dusk, so she can only find a way to save herself.

The little girl calmed down and thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered that in the early morning, the servant mentioned that the third master was going back home today.

And the little brother once said that the third master likes to drink plum blossom wine the most.

Although the plum blossom wine she made was not as good as my mother's, it was not bad. If the plum blossom wine could make the third master happy, and the third master interceded, maybe she could continue to stay...

Thinking of this, she knelt down decisively, "Old lady, I have served the young master for half a year, and the young master is generous and kind to me. He is also willing to teach me how to write and read. Once I leave, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see you again in the future. A few days ago, I brewed a jar of wine and buried it in the yard. Before I left, I wanted to dig it out for my son as a thank you and memory, and I begged the old lady for permission!"

Her eyes were red.

Like a bullied bunny.

The old lady eats vegetarian food and recites Buddha's name on weekdays, but her heart is soft. Seeing her true feelings, she raised her hand and said, "Go, I'll give you two hours to dig out the wine jars, and then carefully pack your bags."

Su Jiu was overwhelmed with gratitude, and quickly got up and backed out.

She ran all the way back to Mingde Courtyard, hurriedly searched for a shovel, dug out the jar of plum wine, opened the mud, and saw that the wine in the jar was crystal clear, exuding a sweet and mellow aroma.

The little girl took a deep breath, in a trance, as if she had returned to the days when she was a child and secretly drank the fine wine made by her mother.

The plum blossom wine was rather sweet when she first drank it. She was young and ignorant, and didn't know it was wine. She thought it smelled very sweet, so she drank a cup of plum blossom wine completely.

In the end, her face was flushed, she hugged her fat and white body in a daze, and curled up under the table to get drunk.

My mother looked for her everywhere, but no one answered her no matter how she called her. When she was about to report to the police, she finally found her under the table.

Later, this matter was brought up by my mother again and again, and she laughed at her for pouring it out.

The little girl recalled that her mother's gentle voice and smile seemed to be just yesterday.

Crystal tears unknowingly slid down her white and tender cheeks.

Tears dripped into the plum wine, smudged and rippling.

When the wind blows, the aroma of the wine is stronger.

Just at this time, a man in black brocade clothes walked past the courtyard wall.

The man has a handsome appearance and looks like he is only 30 years old. He is quite similar to the second master Xiao Yuan.

He walked under the courtyard wall and suddenly stopped walking.

The servant behind him was puzzled, "Master?"

This person is the third master of the Xiao Mansion, named Xiao Yu.

He frowned, looked at the courtyard wall following the aroma of the wine, and asked coldly, "Whose courtyard is this?"

"Returning to the third master, this is the Mingde Courtyard where the fifth son lives."

"The aroma of this wine...it's really, really like it!"

The man couldn't believe it, he was as reckless as a fledgling kid, and plunged into Mingde Courtyard!
