The poisonous girl becomes a phoenix

Chapter 151 Unexpected Request

Mrs. An Guohou was also very surprised. She has been in the position of Mrs. Hou for so many years, and she has never seen a maid as bold as Xiaoyou, who dared to directly speak to her master.And when the maid next to her heard that she wanted to be the housekeeper's aunt for her master, they all wept with joy, there had never been a maid who was as expressionless as Xiaoyou.

"Oh? That's strange, let's talk about it." Mrs. An Guohou became very interested in Xiaoyou after being surprised.

Du Ruoyun's expression changed again.

Xiaoyou still looked neither humble nor overbearing. After listening to Mrs. An Guohou's words, she said calmly: "Madam, I don't have anything to ask for. It's a great blessing for a slave to be a concubine for the son. But even though it's a concubine , but for the servant, it is equivalent to getting married, and the servant wants to ask his wife to let the servant go out of the house to see the mother." Speaking of the last sentence, her voice was already a little choked up.

After hearing this, Du Ruoyun breathed a sigh of relief, and the expression on his face became softer.

Mrs. An Guohou didn't expect that Xiaoyou, a girl, came to kneel in front of the hall and made such a big commotion, but it was just to be able to go home before becoming a concubine. Logically speaking, this is not an unruly thing Du Ruoyun could make the decision and agree to go on, but Xiaoyou left her aside and asked Mrs. An Guohou directly, so this matter was not easy.

Thinking of this, Madam An Guohou gave Du Ruoyun who was sitting on the bed a deep look.Only then smiled and said to Xiaoyou: "I think it's something important, so it's this, sure."

Xiaoyou showed a very faint smile: "Thank you, madam, young lady."

Receiving Mrs. An Guohou's eyes, Du Ruoyun secretly hated her. She never thought that Xiao You, who has always been quiet and obedient, would do this to her at this juncture.Seemingly simple things, but saying them solemnly, clearly made Mrs. An Guohou suspect her. No matter how she pretended to be as close as sisters to Xiaoyou in the future, her mother-in-law would not believe her too much.

Since then, Du Ruoyun's expression has been a little dull. Although he is still smiling, that smile does not make people feel happy.

Mrs. An Guohou said a few words to Du Ruoyun to take care of her body, and then she left. Before leaving, she took a special look at Xiaoyou, and that glance hurt Du Ruoyun's heart.

As soon as she left, the atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing point.Xiaoyou still stood there without changing her face, while the other maids in the room, including Qingtong, were silent, and they all stood in the corner of the room with concern, looking as if the rain was about to come.It seems someone is about to be punished.

Xiao You didn't seem to know that a catastrophe was about to happen to her, she still made a pot of tea as usual, and poured a cup for Du Ruoyun.

Du Ruoyun looked at Xiaoyou quietly, with a thoughtful expression in her eyes. After a long time, she asked, "Xiaoyou, what do you mean by your actions today?"

Xiaoyou raised her head in surprise: "Miss, does this servant have any other intentions? I just want to go home."

"If you want to go home, you can tell me, why do you have to make a fuss in front of your wife? Do you know that this makes me very embarrassed?" Du Ruoyun suppressed the anger in her heart, her voice sounded unintentional as usual, still soft .It's just that Qingtong, who was standing in the corner by the side, showed a frightened expression.

Xiaoyou was still calm, and there was no abnormality in her voice: "But, I told Miss Qingtong about this before, and she told me to stop daydreaming, and said that Miss, you would never agree to a servant girl. This servant has lost his heart. This servant is so discouraged that he took advantage of today to tell his wife, miss, this servant is sorry for causing you so much trouble, this servant deserves to die!" , she "Plop!—" and knelt down.

Du Ruoyun's cold eyes shot straight at Qingtong who was stunned in the corner, his eyes were cold and chilling, and the atmosphere in the room became a little colder in an instant.

After half a sound, Qingtong jumped up from the ground when he realized it, pointed at Xiaoyou with his hands on his hips and shouted angrily: "You spout blood!"

Xiaoyou still said calmly: "The other day when I went to beg you, it was under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in our yard. At that time, I was sweeping the green smoke in the yard. The nanny Zhou, the dog of the second door..." She slowly Without hesitation, he read out the names one after another, all of them were servants in Du Ruoyun's yard.With more and more names, Qingtong's face turned red and white, and finally turned green.

Du Ruoyun looked at Qingtong, then at Xiaoyou, who was right and who was wrong, he knew immediately in his heart.She said lightly to Xiaoyou: "Qingtong did something wrong, but you went past me to tell your wife that you want to go home, this thing is wrong, can you admit it?"

Xiaoyou immediately lowered her head: "I know I was wrong."

Du Ruoyun said again: "However, you are unintentional, so I won't pursue this matter with you, but you have heard clearly, if you have anything to do in the future, just come to me directly, and you don't need to report to Qingtong .”

Xiaoyou lowered her head and said docilely: "Yes, miss, the servant knows."

Looking at this scene, Qing Tong was so angry that she almost gritted her silver teeth!
The young lady actually convicted her without asking indiscriminately, and without even asking her!As Du Ruoyun's big servant girl, she has never been treated like this in ten years!Seeing Xiaoyou's still calm face, she really wanted to rush up and tear her mouth open!

At this time, Du Ruoyun smiled again and said, "Xiaoyou, you can choose a day to go back, whether it is tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and when you come back, I will arrange a day for you to sleep in."

Sleeper?A woman who can't conceive, what is there to be happy when she sleeps with her?It would be more cost-effective to let her stay at home for two more days.

Xiaoyou's eyes were slightly cold, but her voice was still very gentle: "Then tomorrow."

Ruoyun seemed very happy when he heard that, so he immediately beckoned a few women to prepare for Xiaoyou's return home tomorrow, and even arranged for several people to accompany him, and how many carriages to take, all of which were clearly arranged, and it was in front of Xiaoyou Face, without shy away.

Xiao You smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.

After arranging all these things, Du Ruoyun felt a little tired. A pregnant woman should not be overworked. She had just dealt with Mrs. An Guohou and arranged for Xiaoyou. This whole process made her feel tired , and waved his hand to tell Xiaoyou to back down.

Xiaoyou's face didn't change, as if she wouldn't mind what Du Ruoyun said, and when she retreated, she was as silent as her people.

When Qingtong was the only one left in the room, she pleaded fiercely to Du Ruoyun: "Miss, Xiaoyou has evil intentions, how can you trust her?"

Du Ruoyun's expression was cold for a moment, and he said calmly: "I just want to ask you, are you the one who said those daydreams? I want to listen to the truth."

Qingtong's face turned red, and after a long time, she slowly lowered her head and said, "It's the servant who said it." But the next moment, she raised her head sharply again: "But miss! The servant just can't understand her always pretending A soft and weak look, as if we should all give in, do not do much in the day, but receive double the monthly salary! This is really unfair!"

Du Ruoyun looked at her indifferently, without saying a word, until she looked down at Qingtong so much that she lowered her head.

"She lost her fertility because of me. This is the best thing she has done for me. With this thing, I will raise her for the rest of my life, so what?"

Qingtong said unconvinced: "Miss, but isn't that what she should do as a maid? How can she treat her differently because of this? Doesn't this make us servant girls who have served you for so many years feel so embarrassed?" ?”

Du Ruoyun glanced at her and said, "Then let me ask you, if I asked you to do that, would you be willing?"

Qingtong said without hesitation: "I am willing!"

"Then are you willing to never have children of your own and never have the chance to be a mother? This is the greatest punishment for a woman." Du Ruoyun continued slowly.

Qingtong was a little hesitant.

She had secretly negotiated with Li Guanshi of the Shangshu Mansion for a long time, and Li Guanshi promised to marry Du Ruoyun when she gave birth to a child, to be a mother, and to have a bunch of lovely children. This was the happiness that Qingtong had imagined for a long time.All this will be realized one by one in the near future, because the young lady has acquiesced in their marriage.

Now Qingtong imagines that she is Xiaoyou, a crippled woman who cannot conceive or compete for favor, and suddenly feels that this is the saddest thing in life.

She stopped talking, because at this moment, she suddenly remembered how she and all the maids in the yard were secretly relieved when the young lady chose Xiaoyou as a substitute.At that time, no one was willing to do that thing, Xiaoyou resisted, otherwise, as Du Ruoyun's big maid, she would not be spared.

"What? Do you still think it's superfluous for me to give Xiaoyou that extra money every month?" Du Ruoyun said lightly.

Qingtong shook her head.

"Just figure it out, you go out too, by the way, get me a bowl of bird's nest porridge." Du Ruoyun ordered lightly, and after she finished speaking, she leaned back on the couch.

Qingtong nodded, and was about to retreat to the kitchen to make porridge, when she suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "Miss, if Xiaoyou goes back like this, will something happen?"

There was a faint smile on the corner of Du Ruoyun's mouth, and there was a hint of coldness in his voice: "There are more than thirty hidden guards watching secretly, and she can't fly. But I don't think she should be so stupid."

Hearing these words, Qingtong didn't know why, but a strange feeling came to her heart.She couldn't figure it out. On the one hand, her young lady showed her gratitude to Xiaoyou, but on the other hand, she was very wary of her, and she seemed quite afraid. Why?
