Medicine Maiden: Orion's Pampering

Chapter 234 Do You Dislike Me?
"That's right, my servant is right," Xiuzhu said as she stood up from behind the stove, bowed her knees uprightly towards Shen Ruyu, and saluted, "Madam, my servant greets you."

Shen Ruyu turned her body slightly, and said lightly, "Don't dare, Miss Xiuzhu, although you are staying in my pharmacy now, in fact I don't treat you as a maid, you know this best in your heart."

"Ma'am, that's right." Xiuzhu didn't get up, but instead lowered her body a little bit, "I think I can't face my family with my current body, let alone get married, please be merciful, madam. Accept the slaves."

I didn't mention it earlier, I didn't mention it later, but I mentioned it after reading Yang Tiansheng's love letter to him. This Xiuzhu's thoughts are well known to Sima Zhaozhi.

Shen Ruyu remained calm and gentle as usual, "Miss Xiuzhu was joking, how could I let you be my maid? I see that you are well educated, gentle and pleasant, and you serve in the house, but I have treated you badly. I will do it no matter what." Don't do such heartless things."

"No, no, it's my own will."

"But I don't want to," Shen Ruyu took the opportunity and explained her opinion without delay.

When Xiuzhu heard this, she raised her head to look at Shen Ruyu, her slightly bent body trembled slightly, and she said mournfully, "Could it be that you won't let me in to serve you because I'm broken?"

"Look at what you said," Shen Ruyu gave a little support, with a cold expression on his face, "I, Shen Ruyu, was also born in a poor family, and I'm not rich enough to be served by someone. Besides, I'm not used to having many people in the house by nature."

Speaking of Yang Tiansheng, Xiuzhu got excited, stood up, leaned towards Shen Ruyu, lowered her voice, and said ambiguously, "Madam doesn't know, which man doesn't want to have more people in the room."

"What do you mean?" Shen Ruyu was immediately annoyed, and Xiuzhu couldn't bear the cold light that shot out from her beautiful eyes, so she lowered her head.

"Miss Xiuzhu, can you talk nonsense?" Shen Ruyu took the opportunity to knock on Xiuzhu, hoping that she would retreat in spite of difficulties, "Although my family is born as a man, I can stand upright and never do things that spoil other girls. What do you say? It’s a common saying, but it’s bad for his reputation, you know?”

Xiuzhu didn't expect Shen Ruyu's reaction to be so big, her eyes fluttered in shock, hoping to ease the atmosphere, after a long time, she raised her head again and smiled at Shen Ruyu, "Ma'am, you misunderstood me, if you I am not allowed to enter the house to serve, and the same is true for serving outside the house. The servants only want to have a full mouthful of food and a roof to cover the rain. In the current situation, what can we expect?"

After finishing speaking, his eyes turned red with grievance.

Shen Ruyu looked at Xiuzhu again, snorted and said, "Miss Xiuzhu has a very different temperament today. Could it be that she read Tiansheng's letter to me and thought he was a pretty good person, so she tried every means to sneak into our room, hoping Can you be favored?"

If she didn't make it clear, Xiuzhu would still miss Yang Tiansheng, so she might as well ask directly, if she was honest, she would be done with a few more words, if she didn't tell the truth, then there would be no place for her to stay in this pharmacy.

"Ma'am, what are you talking about? Is this the kind of person I am, Xiuzhu?" Xiuzhu really denied it. After all, peeking at other people's letters is a very disreputable thing.

"Really haven't seen it?" Shen Ruyu took a deep breath, smiled forcedly, "I'll give you another chance, answer me after you think it over."

Xiuzhu's lips were tightly closed, and she didn't say anything for a while. After a while, she shook her head and said firmly, "I helped bring the letter from the outside into the back house, but I really didn't read enough of what was inside. .”

This is really good, Shen Ruyu despised Xiuzhu from the bottom of her heart, glanced at her, and walked out.

"Yu Niang, don't you know? The fat girl saw that Shen Ruyu didn't eat, so she hurriedly chased after her, "It's okay if you don't eat, Yu Niang? "

Shen Ruyu was angry at the moment, but there was no evidence to expose Xiuzhu.

"Yu Niang, why are you unhappy?" Fat Girl asked cautiously.

"Auntie, you eat first, I'm not hungry," Shen Ruyu didn't even think about eating now, with Xiuzhu staying by her side, she was like a ticking time bomb.

If she was driven away directly, it would be inevitable that she would go out and talk nonsense, and it would appear that she was in the wrong, so she had to find a good way to make her leave without complaining.

"Yu Niang, have you found Tian Sheng's letter? I think he must have known that Qiqiao Festival will be in two days, so he wrote you a letter." Fat girl thought that Shen Ruyu couldn't find comfort, so she was upset. So I followed to comfort.

Qi Qiao Festival?Isn't this the so-called Tanabata Valentine's Day?

What a good day.

After Shen Ruyu thought for a while, she swept away the haze on her face and said with a smile, "Auntie, you have helped me a lot."

"I helped you? You really know how to joke," Fat Gu didn't believe it, and ordered Shen Ruyu to go to the back hall.

After dinner, Shen Ruyu wrote a letter and asked old man Cao to send it to a house in the suburbs.

A few days later, when it came to the Qiqiao Festival, the pharmacy suddenly became lively, and all the rescued pregnant girls came.

"Miss Yu," several girls including Sufen and Linglong greeted Shen Ruyu sincerely, and then some of them were still looking for Xiuzhu, "Sister Xiuzhu, I haven't seen her for many days."

"I'm here, Linglong," Xiuzhu walked out from the back hall, and greeted the girls present with a smile.

"Look, it's Lady Jade who raises people here, and Sister Xiuzhu is a little more beautiful," Linglong said kind words, which were pleasant to hear.

"Of course, here, there is aura," Xiuzhu said, and several people laughed together.

Until the vegetable and fruit refreshments in the courtyard were ready, several people dispersed, and at Shen Ruyu's invitation, they took their seats one by one.

With Shen Ruyu present, these girls are more reserved, you can't talk to each other.

"Come on, today is Qixi Qiqiao Festival, I invite everyone to come and get together, I'm going to be busy in the future, I'm afraid I don't have much time," Shen Ruyu said as she picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and signaled them not to be polite , enjoy.

Xiuzhu stayed in this pharmacy for a few more days, her temper was very casual, and she acted like a hostess when taking care of them to eat vegetables, fruits and refreshments.

"Miss Jade," Sufen couldn't bear to watch anymore, she gently pulled Shen Ruyu's sleeve, and leaned into her ear and said, "Do you have any plans?"

Although it didn't say anything, the meaning couldn't be clearer.

Shen Ruyu just smiled and said nothing, and said after a while, "Do you know the origin of the Qiqiao Festival?"

"I know, I know," Linglong replied excitedly, fearing that others would rob her, "Today is a good day for Cowherd to meet his Weaver Girl sister Magpie Bridge."

"Yes, that's right, that's how it is," agreed the others.

But this was not the question Shen Ruyu really wanted to ask. She clapped her hands twice, causing everyone to look at her, and said, "Let's play a game, shall we? Whoever wins will be rewarded."

"Okay, okay," there are rewards, no one will miss them, and everyone happily wants to participate...
