Chapter 115

After Qin Su finished explaining, her brows were still not loosened.

Asking Zhu Xiu for help is the worst policy.Handmaids like Zhu Xiu are actually not easy to communicate with often.

She was originally the first-class servant girl of Dongxuan Pavilion, serving Mrs. Wu closely, but whenever she got closer to people from other courtyards, she would be noticed by others.

Qin Su was not afraid of Lin's detection, but she had to guard against Qin Yanwan and Qin Yanzhen.

Indeed, Qin Yanwan treated her very well, and Qin Yanzhen was also a nice person, but this did not mean that they would stand by her side.She even counted Lin's family, who would help outsiders deal with her own mother?
Seeing Qin Su's serious face, Ah Li didn't dare to say anything, and just stood aside with his hands down.

At this moment, the little servant boy's return voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Lunch is here, do you want some for the lady?"

Qin Su pulled back her thoughts and nodded to Ah Li. Ah Li understood, and said: "Put it in first, and then open the damper of the tea stove. It will be hot for a while."

From the big kitchen of the East Courtyard back to Dongli, the distance is quite short.After walking this way, even the hot food is completely cold, so it is not edible.Therefore, all courtyards are equipped with tea stoves. After the meal is brought, it is convenient to reheat it on the tea stove before serving.

The little servant girl was ordered to present the food box, and went to the corner of the corridor to light the stove. Ali picked out two staple foods, wheat rice and steamed cakes, from the food box, and took them to the stove to heat them up. Fang served Qin Su with the rice .

Qin Su had something on her mind and didn't care about eating, so she put the chopsticks away after eating half a bowl of wheat and rice, and ordered people to remove the food.

Ah Li led a few servant girls to pack up all the things, and was sent to have lunch by Qin Su, and also called the servant girl named Ah Kui to serve in the morning.

Ah Kui was the same age as Qin Su, but she was not short in stature, slightly taller than Qin Su by half a head, her slender figure was slim, her small face was only the size of a palm, her eyebrows were exquisite, and she was quite girly.

She is Dongli who entered with A Gu, and she is the last class of maid, who can only sweep the floor in the yard.According to Jinxiu's occasional mention, Akui's family used to work in the Qin family's tea field, but later the tea field changed managers, and the family returned to their home in Qingzhou.

Today, Ah Kui's parents are both in charge of sweeping in the outer courtyard, while his grandfather is in charge of the flowers and trees in a garden in the east courtyard. Ah Kui is the eldest sister of the family, and there are two younger brothers and a younger sister under her, living a very tight life.

Qin Su looked at her nonchalantly.

For some reason, this delicate but plain face always made her feel familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.

The only thing Qin Su could say for sure was that even if she had met Ah Kui, it must have happened in her previous life.

"Girl, don't use the Dongci Room right now, can you open the window to let in some air?" After being called into the house, Aoi didn't stay idle, and wiped it with a cloth towel, and then came to ask Qin Su for instructions.

Qin Su glanced at the cloth towel in her hand and nodded: "Go ahead, don't open it too far, just one palm's width is enough."

Ah Kui made a promise, and retreated lightly.

Qin Su observed her from a distance, but saw that she was careful in her actions, although she walked fast, she didn't make too much noise, and she didn't have the problem of looking around, so she walked straight into the Dongci room.

Qin Su couldn't see the situation in Dongci Room from his seat, but could only hear the sound of the window sash opening. Soon, Ah Kui came out of Dongci Room again, standing in the open room. Beside the door curtain, they didn't move to Qin Su's side.

Qin Su was slightly surprised.

No matter how she acts or speaks, this Aoi has the air of an ambassador. Being a handyman really bury her.

How could she not have discovered such an outstanding figure before?

While thinking, Qin Su got up and came to the edge of the bookshelf. Fang stretched out his hand to a volume of books on the shelf, and suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside.

She stopped the movements in her hands, turned her head and looked back, but saw that Ah Kui had already lifted the curtain and left the room first, and then her greeting voice sounded: "Sister Jinxiu is back."

It turned out that Jinxiu had returned.

It's true, before dinner time, the first ambassador of Dongli will never be willing to come back.

Qin Suhun turned around again indifferently, and went to get the books on the shelf.

"Why are you here? Who told you to come?" Jinxiu's voice sounded, with obvious hostility, but it was heard that the voice stopped at the door.

"It was the girl who called me." Ah Kui's voice was not high, but she didn't show timidity either.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Jinxiu immediately raised her voice, and soon she lifted the curtain like a gust of wind and walked in, with a bit of anger on her face, "The girl will not ask you to serve. Where is Ali? Where did Ali go? "

A trace of surprise flashed across Qin Su's heart.

Why is Jinxiu so angry all of a sudden?In the past, there was a little servant girl guarding the gate here occasionally, but I never saw her so angry.

"Sister Ah Li is going to have lunch." Ah Kui walked in after Jinxiu, her face very calm.

Jinxiu turned around abruptly, glared at her fiercely, stretched out her hand and pointed forward, raised her eyebrows and said, "Who allowed you to enter the house? This is not where you should come, why don't you hurry up and get out?"

Ah Kui's body shrank, but she still stood by the door, she didn't speak, and her feet didn't move at all.

Jinxiu couldn't help being furious when she saw this, she rushed up and tried to push her.

"Okay." A clear and weak voice rang out suddenly, the voice was not so harsh, but it was inexplicably cold and chilling. Hearing it, I felt a cold war in my heart.

Jinxiu stopped immediately, and looked back at Qin Su, the anger on her face was replaced by flattery and fawning: "Girl, Ah Kui..."

"I asked her to come in." Qin Su looked at her with a smile that was not a smile, and put the book in his hand on the table, and then sat down with one hand idly by the table: "A Li Going to have lunch, you don't know where you are, I must have someone to take care of me, right?" Her tone was not as cold as before, and there was a little smile on her face.

A trace of grievance flashed across Jin Xiu's face, and she took out a cloth bag from her sleeve and presented it to Qin Su: "Girl, I went to the warehouse to get needles and thread, and I didn't run around."

"So that's the case." Qin Su nodded with a smile, and glanced sideways at Ah Kui who was standing beside her.

Ah Kui was very savvy, and immediately bowed her head and backed out.

Looking at her slender back, a thought quickly passed through Qin Su's mind, so fast that it was almost impossible to grasp.

She concentrated her attention, then smiled at Jinxiu again.

Speaking of which, she didn't want to embarrass the handmaid who knew the news. After a pause, she slowed down and said, "I didn't blame you, I know you are busy. Now you go to lunch first." After eating, don't be hungry, I have Aoi here to listen to."

On Jinxiu's face, she was overjoyed at first, but when she heard that Qin Su wanted Ah Kui to stay, her face was filled with displeasure, and she opened her mouth and said, "Girl..."

Qin Su turned to look at her.

Jin Xiu's voice suddenly stopped.

At that glance, it was as if two balls of ice rolled on her body, and it was like ice water pouring over her body, pouring her from head to toe.

Jinxiu's heart trembled, and the unspoken words seemed to be frozen, and she couldn't utter a single word.
