rural little doctor girl

Chapter 512 Want to be a maid

"This is the dowry that my husband and I prepared for you." With a smile on his face, Lin Guyu handed the wooden box in his hand directly to Xiaoxue.

"Ma'am, I really don't need it. Didn't you prepare a few boxes for me a long time ago? I don't need this one." Xiaoxue said, refusing to do it.

"You can't take it away, it's just a little love from my husband and I, I'm afraid I won't be willing to give it to you if you want it in the future, take it quickly!" Lin Guyu stuffed it into Xiaoxue's hands involuntarily.

Xiaoxue's eyes were red, and she looked at the small wooden box in her hand with tearful eyes, her nose was blocked with her fingers.

"When a girl gets married, the dowry should be more, so that she won't be bullied by her husband's family." Lin Guyu looked at Xiaoxue with a smile, and seeing that her collar was a little crooked, she naturally helped Xiaoxue tidy it up, and said softly, "Aren't you going to open it and have a look?"

Xiaoxue sucked her nose vigorously, raised her eyes to look at Lin Guyu, pressed her lips tightly, and nodded vigorously.

Opening the wooden box in her hand, Xiaoxue saw a few pieces of paper inside.

When she saw the first piece of yellowed paper, there was a crooked red finger print at the bottom, Xiaoxue's hands trembled slightly, and tears fell drop by drop on the paper.

People like them who sell themselves into slavery want to be free most of all. This is her contract of sale.

"Zhang Jiu has always been free, and we can't be left behind, right?" Lin Guyu looked at Xiaoxue with a smile on his lips.

The tears couldn't stop at this moment, Xiaoxue wiped the tears off her face silently with a handkerchief, and said in a crying voice, "Ma'am."

"I'm afraid we will all live in the capital in the future. You and Zhang Jiu should have their own house in the capital." Lin Guyu smiled and took out another piece of paper from the wooden box, "What about the capital?" It's all expensive, so brother Chi Hang and I bought you a yard with one entrance and one exit, with your name on it."

"Ma'am, I can't have this." Xiaoxue's tears fell uncontrollably, and she hurriedly pushed and dragged in shame, "I really can't have it."

"But your name is written on it. If you don't want it, then this house can only be taken back by the court." Lin Guyu said innocently, and stuffed it directly into Xiaoxue's hands, "This is your private property. Brother Chi Hang should give Zhang Jiu a lot of money. You husband and wife have been taking care of me and Brother Chi Hang. If there is no war, I would like to buy you a better house. You know, the money has been bought for food donations to the army."

Xiaoxue only felt that the paper in her hand was extraordinarily heavy, she was just a little maid, how could He De be treated like this by his wife.

Inside the box was the title deed of ten acres of top-notch land in other counties. Xiaoxue covered her lips with her hand. Even if she didn't do anything in her life, she wouldn't be starved to death.

Lin Guyu looked at Xiaoxue's blushing face from crying, wiped it carefully with a handkerchief, and complained, "You are too, why are you crying, today is your good day."

But as he talked, Lin Guyu's eyes were a little bitter, and tears were about to come out of his eyes. He hurriedly stood up, looked up at the sky, and told Xiaoxue with his back turned, "Pack up all your things. I'll go out first and have a look outside." Is there anything else I need help with?"

Xiaoxue burst into tears. In fact, as long as the madam gave her the deed, she would be very moved. She was never the kind of greedy person.

"Xiaoxue." Xiao Hua's voice came from outside the door.

Xiaoxue hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face, not knowing whether the makeup on her face was gone or not, so her voice was choked up, "Come in."

Xiaohua opened the door and came in. When she saw Xiaoxue, she had a slight smile on her face, and said in a gentle voice, "Congratulations."

"En." Xiaoxue replied shyly, stretched out her hand and pulled Xiaohua to sit beside the bed, "Xiaohua, if I can't be by Madam's side, you must take good care of Madam."

Xiao Hua nodded vigorously.

"The two of us have different personalities. Madam trusts you, and the most important things at home are left to you. I am more lively and suitable for communicating with outsiders. You have to learn from both. I will not be here during this time, so take good care of Madam. "Xiaoxue looked at Xiaohua's red eye circles, tried her best to hold back her tears, stretched out her arms to hug/hold Xiaohua, thinking that Xiaohua loves to kick the quilt when she sleeps, and said in a crying voice, "We will not live together in the future, you Also remember to cover the quilt to sleep at night, otherwise it is easy to get sick."

Xiaohua only felt that her chest/mouth was blocked by something, and pushed Xiaoxue away with red eyes.

When the two of them were bought by Lin Guyu, their fates were linked together.

"Madam said, it's not good to cry today." Xiaohua suppressed the reluctance in her heart, choked up, hurriedly took the handkerchief, and carefully helped Xiaoxue wipe off the tears on her face, and opened the bag, " Here are a few contacts I sent you, and there are 100 taels of silver at the bottom of the box."

For so many years, Xiao Hua estimated that she had only saved 200 taels of silver. Now that she is given 100 taels of silver, what should Xiao Hua do?
Xiaoxue quickly pushed back the silver ticket, "I really don't need money, Madam has prepared a lot for me."

"It's Madam's." Xiaohua said, and solemnly put the banknote into Xiaoxue's hands, "We have been sisters for so many years, this is my wish."

Xiaoxue hesitated for a while, then took the bank note, holding Xiaohua reluctantly.

Xiaohua is taciturn, and she didn't like Xiaohua at first. When she saw Xiaohua sacrifice herself to protect his wife, she realized that Xiaohua is the kind of person who can't express herself. I will never have to worry that she will betray me in my life.

There are more talented people in this inner courtyard than Xiaohua, but there are so many maids in the inner courtyard, only Xiaohua is the one Madam trusts the most.

Hearing that there was commotion outside and the sound of firecrackers, Xiaoxue knew that it was time to get on the sedan chair.

Xiaoxue came out of the house with Xi Niang's support, and when she saw Chi Hang and Lin Guyu, she slowly lifted up her dress, solemnly kowtowed to them three times, holding back her tears, walk outside.

After sending Xiaoxue away, the whole Chi family became deserted.

Lin Guyu always felt that marrying Xiaoxue was like marrying a daughter, and his heart felt a little empty.

Seeing Lin Guyu's worrying about gain and loss, Chi Hang stretched out his arms to hold Lin Guyu and walked towards the house, "You sleep at home for a while, I'll go over there and have a look."

"I'll go too." Lin Guyu reached out and took Chi Hang's hand and walked towards the place where Zhang Jiu held the banquet.

After a busy day, he finally stopped, Lin Guyu's heart was still a little empty.

For several days in a row, Lin Guyu was listless and listless. Because Xiaoxue married her, Lin Guyu thought about giving Xiaoxue a little time to love each other, so she gave Xiaoxue a one-month vacation.

In just a few days, Lin Guyu felt awkward, and called Xiaoxue who habitually wanted to open her mouth, only then did she realize that Xiaoxue was no longer by her side.

Xiao Hua was not very comfortable in her heart, and she could talk to Xiao Xue more on weekdays, but now none of the little girls in the house could get close to her.

According to those little maids, she is unsmiling and doesn't like to talk, and Mrs. Bisheng still dotes on her.

"Xiao Hua." Lin Guyu looked up at Xiao Hua with a smile, "I want to eat hibiscus cake, you can ask the kitchen staff to make some."

"Yes." Xiaohua said, she hurriedly turned around and went out directly.

Walking to the door of the kitchen, Xiaohua heard the maid in the kitchen chewing/tongue/· head.

"Madam is really kind to Miss Xiaoxue. She gave her a deed of sale, a house and a lot of land." A little maid said enviously.

"Madam likes Miss Xiaoxue, who can talk and do things." A mother-in-law said with some taste, "If you are as good at doing things as Miss Xiaoxue, you will definitely have these things in the future."

"Mother Wu, the strange thing is, why does Madam treat Xiaohua so well? She is not in front of Madam on weekdays. Now that Miss Xiaoxue has left, Madam only remembers that there is such a person as Xiaohua. I have been looking at Xiaohua for a day She doesn't talk much at night, and keeps a straight face, as if someone else owes her dozens of taels of silver." The little maid said with gusto, throwing the vegetables in her hand into the basket angrily.

"Who knows, Madam probably drove Xiaohua away in a few days, that's all right, let's cook quickly, Madam is in a bad mood recently because Miss Xiaoxue is not here, you should be quicker, so you won't be accused when the time comes." Mama Wu picked the vegetables in her hands and put them directly into the vegetable basket, and was about to go out to wash the vegetable basket, when she saw Xiao Hua standing at the door with a cold face.

"Small, Miss Xiaohua." Mother Wu saluted Xiaohua tremblingly. Even though they didn't like Xiaohua, Xiaohua was still the big servant girl by Madam's side. There were only two big maidservants in the whole Chi Mansion, Xiaoxue and Xiaohua painting.

Squatting inside, Xiaoyu heard Mama Wu calling, dropped the things in her hands in a panic, got up and called, "Miss Xiaohua."

"Madam wants to eat hibiscus cake, is there any more in the kitchen?" Xiao Hua asked lightly, casting a cold glance at the two people in the room.

"Yes." Mama Wu said, put the vegetable basket in her hand on the ground, went to the wooden basin beside her to wash her hands, wiped her hands on her knees after washing, and took out the hibiscus cake from the cabinet.

During this time, Lin Guyu ate hibiscus cake every day, and the kitchen was always prepared.

Xiaohua took the plate of hibiscus cake from Mama Wu's hand, turned around and walked to the door, looked back lightly, as if thinking of something, her eyes turned around Mama Wu and Xiaoyu, "Do you know why the whole Chi Mansion Are there only two big maids?"

Xiaoyu is still young, when she heard what Xiaohua said, she hurriedly looked up.

"The slaves don't know what Madam means!" Mother Wu said in a low voice with her head lowered.

"Want to know?" Xiaohua asked calmly.

"I want to." A little maid who doesn't want to be a big maid is not a good maid, Xiao Yu looks nervously at Xiao Hua, she wants to be a big maid, not a little maid who is bullied.

Xiao Hua/The corners of her lips curved slightly, and she looked at Xiao Yu with a smile on her face.

Xiao Yu was a little dumbfounded.

On weekdays, Xiaohua always has a sullen face. Even if he knows that Xiaohua is good-looking, people will take the initiative to look away just by looking at that cold face.

But when she smiled, it was different, like the stars in the sky, so bright and dazzling that people couldn't move their eyes.
