Chapter 10
As expected, the second lady lived up to Jinxi's expectations. The first lady had just sent a maid named Haitang to Jinxi's side to cover the lack of pearls, and then she sent a maid named Caiyue to Xuefeng Pavilion to be ordered by Jinxi. .

"Our wife said that the sixth lady is weak, so it's right to have more maidservants around her than the other girls." Seeing the elder lady's face turn pale, Bi Ling's calf trembled a little when she was sent by the second lady to answer, she gritted her teeth and took the lead. The second wife confessed specifically, "Our wife is afraid that it will be difficult for the eldest lady, so Caiyue's monthly bill will be deducted from the second lady's monthly bill, and will not go to the official account."

The Da Furen sneered and dismissed Bi Ling with a noncommittal sneer. After thinking for a while, she suddenly sent Zhu Yong's daughter-in-law to Xuefeng Pavilion to ask Mama Ai to answer.

Mama Ai went to have a meal and didn't come back yet. Seeing that Qing Xing was rubbing ink for her, she stretched her neck and kept looking outside the door. The inkstone in the inkstone was full and she didn't notice it. Jin Xi smiled. He tapped lightly on her forehead with a pen, "Don't worry, it must be a good thing!"

"How is it possible? My mother is honest and can't speak, what if I make a mistake and blame the eldest lady?" Thinking of the meaningful glance of Zhu Yong's daughter-in-law before leaving, Qing Xing Xiaoyuan's face turned blue and white.If the eldest lady knew that she put the pawn ticket found in Mama Gu's house, their mother and daughter would be beaten to death with sticks.

"No way!" Knowing what Qing Xing was afraid of, Jin Xi put down her pen and smiled at her comfortingly, "Auntie must have asked Mama Ai to be the nurse in charge of our hospital, and she is telling her right now."

Qing Xing shook her head suspiciously, but Jin Xi was confident.Gu's mother had an accident, and the second lady had the opportunity to put on a loving mother's posture to fight the eldest lady.Mama Ai's face is kind and soft-hearted, so she can handle it well. As a nanny, she should be the nanny in charge, and the eldest lady is not stupid. It is impossible to bypass Mama Ai and find another nanny in charge at this moment, so as to give the second lady a handle.When she called Mama Ai, she must have coaxed and frightened her to hold Mama Ai in her hands!

Thinking of this, the corners of Jin Xi's mouth could not help but curl up, riding a donkey to read the libretto, who knows who is not sure!

Qing Xing was baffled by Jin Xi's smile, and couldn't help asking: "Can my mother really be the nanny in charge?"

"Really!" Jin Xi nodded, just as Ai's mother entered the room, one foot in the door and one foot out the door, she was shocked when she heard Jin Xi's words, "Young lady, do you know how to pinch? How do you know that the eldest lady called the old slave over, Do you want the old slave to be the nanny in charge?"

Haitang and Caiyue, who were arranging her underwear in the room, suddenly fell silent. Jinxi was annoyed at her carelessness, and quickly stuck out her tongue and laughed, "I guessed, I want my mother to be the nanny in charge, so I want to eat meat There is meat, and if you want to wear new clothes, you can have new clothes. You don’t need to get up early to learn the rules, and you don’t need to do needlework every day.”

Jinxi's childish stupid words let Mama Ai breathe a sigh of relief. She would rather Jinxi be stupid than be too abnormal.Seeing that Jin Xi's face was stained with ink, he immediately gouged Qing Xing with his eyes, and went out to fetch a basin of warm water to wash Jin Xi's face.

Ai's mother didn't ask any further questions, and Jin Xi also breathed a sigh of relief.After taking a nap, Jin Xi was going to greet the old lady.Waiting for her to dress neatly, Caiyue and Haitang both reached out to grab the gauze hat she was wearing when she went out.The two grabbed the brim of the hat at the same time, stared at each other, and neither of them would let go.

Mother Ai looked at this and that and rubbed her hands anxiously, not knowing how to persuade her, let alone who to ask Jinxi to go out with.These two people are big servant girls, who will accompany the girl to pay respects to the old lady is not only a matter of face for the two of them, but also means which lady the sixth girl is close to, one is the head wife and the other is the aunt, how can I choose?
It is enough for the girl to be eye-catching if she has one more big maid beside the other girls in the mansion. If the two of them are asked to accompany the girl to greet the old lady, they will definitely cause trouble.

Jin Xi secretly winks at Mama Ai, signaling her to leave it alone.No one stepped forward to stop them, Caiyue and Haitang were even more unscrupulous, you pulled me to 'hiss', and the small silk gauze cap was actually torn apart by the two of them.

Caiyue and Haitang each held half a torn gauze cap, both a little dumbfounded, why is the brand new gauze cap so weak?
Jin Xi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed and yawning, pursed his mouth when he saw this, tears came down, "You are bad people, you broke my hat just to make me look ugly with scars on my face, I told grandma to go !” As he spoke, he stood up and ran out of the door with short legs.

Caiyue pulled Jinxi back with a quick smile and said with a smile: "Miss, please forgive this servant, this time, this servant will never dare again!"

Haitang also knew that it was because the old lady was unhappy because of Mama Gu's matter, and Miss Six couldn't see it because of their narrow-mindedness just now, but she couldn't hide it from the old lady.No one has any good fruit to eat when the trouble grows up, so she had to follow Caiyue's words, "The servants are fighting to get the hats because they want to serve the girl, and they have no intention of harming the girl!"

"Really?" Jin Xi tilted his head and looked at the two smiling faces in front of him, and said to himself, "But my hat was broken by you, so one of you must be a bad person."

While talking, she glanced back and forth between the faces of Caiyue and Haitang, Caiyue and Haitang were full of anger, but each smiled brighter than the other, fearing that the grin was not strong enough, and the little fool in front of her would think they were bad people.

Jin Xi looked at it for a while before she seemed to have made up her mind and said, "Then you two go to the yard and stand against the wall, and whoever moves when I come back is a bad person!"

Haitang's grinning mouth was tightened all of a sudden, and the few light brown freckles on Rong Chang's swollen red nose turned into light pink.She is the big servant girl who served by Da Furen's side, and she was punished when she first came to Xuefeng Pavilion. It's not a big deal to lose her face, but Da Furen's face, can Da Furen forgive her?
Caiyue didn't want to pay attention to Jinxi's nonsense, she glanced at the aggrieved Haitang, she suddenly changed her mind, instead of being serious with Miss Liu, a fool, she should be coaxed.The days are still long, so I have no choice but to be here for a while.

Seeing Caiyue go out without saying a word and standing next to the wall, Haitang immediately guessed what she was thinking, and couldn't help itching her teeth with hatred, but couldn't save face and followed.Seeing Haitang twisting her neck and standing still, Jinxi pointed at her and turned around and shouted to Ai's mother, "She admitted that she is a bad person. Mom, hurry up and find the housekeeper!"

Mother Ai covered Jinxi's mouth, turned her head and smiled softly to Haitang: "Miss Six is ​​still young, so don't take it to heart when you say something. For the sake of the old slave, please stand outside for a while." , you will come back after Miss Six goes out."

"She's a bad person, she's going to turn me into an ugly monster! She's a bad person!" Jin Xi pushed Ai's mother's hand away, and raised her voice so that the whole yard could hear it.Watching the Buddha and worshiping the monk, beating the dog to scare the Lord, she must find out the truth about the eldest lady and the second lady today.Jinxi raised her voice higher than her voice, Haitang bit her lower lip and thought for a moment, then walked out with a shake of her hand.

Seeing her come out, Caiyue sneered, "Who am I to be more honest than anyone else, so I'm also a coward!"

Haitang glared at her fiercely, but Caiyue raised her chin provocatively and looked at her with a half-smile.Haitang turned her face away from her in resentment, but her clenching fingers desperately grabbed the palm of her hand, cursing the little bitch secretly, let's wait and see!
Although he roughly figured out Haitang and Caiyue's temper and bottom line, Jinxi was not in a relaxed mood when he took Qingxing out.Caiyue Neng Qu Nengshen is a scheming person, so she must be difficult to deal with.Haitang's happiness and anger are all written on her face, she seems to be a straight-tempered person, and others are also a person who sees the wind and does not take advantage of the immediate disadvantages. The eldest lady and the second lady are standing by her side, what is the plan?

Walking to a place where no one was around, Qing Xing looked at Jin Xi adoringly, "How did the girl know that the two of them would grab the gauze cap?"

"Don't talk nonsense, how would I know!" Jin Xi looked around vigilantly, making sure that the woman sweeping the floor in the distance didn't hear Qing Xing's words, so she put her heart in her stomach and knocked Qing Xing on the forehead Chestnut burst.Qing Xing stuck out her tongue, and cleverly swallowed the latter sentence, "You don't know why you asked me to secretly cut up the gauze hat."

Qing Xing was so clever, Jin Xi secretly thought that children can be taught, and when she looked up and saw the thin willow branches that had just sprouted in front of her, she suddenly became interested, ran over and tiptoed to pull dozens of willow branches.

Qing Xing held the young willow branches that had just been cut and followed Jinxi, watching Jinxi walking towards the old lady's Crane Hall, making things with willow branches, and in the blink of an eye, she had a delicate one in her hand. The sorghum slender waist Hualan couldn't help opening her mouth, "Young lady's hands are so skillful, the old lady must like it!"

"Let's go find some flowers in the garden." Looking at her own work, Jin Xi was also a little proud.Calculating the time, it must be too late to invite Ann at this moment, so we might as well go later and go to the old lady's for dinner.

The garden is not big and it is early spring weather, there are no decent flowers at all.The master and servant rummaged in the garden for a long time before they found a few budding rhododendrons. Jin Xi inserted the flowers upright in the willow branches, and happily took the green apricot along the path to Heling Hall .

Just turning around the rockery, the two of them suddenly heard a snoring sound. Following the sound, Jin Xi looked up and saw a man in a cloth robe lying on the top of the rockery, which was as high as two people, sleeping.The robe on his body was so dirty that he couldn't tell its color, and the cuffs and corners of the robe were torn into strips.He wore a muddy hemp shoe on one foot, but on the other he wore a brand-new thin-soled cowhide baotou boot, and somehow the big toe was exposed.The sound was like thunder, and a shiny purple wine gourd was tightly clutched in his hand.Covering his face was a battered bamboo hat whose beams were rotten, and it was rising and falling with the sound of snoring, and it might fall off at any time.

Jin Xi frowned secretly, the Zhou family wasn't considered a wealthy family, but how could a beggar be allowed to lie on the rockery in the inner courtyard and sleep soundly in broad daylight?It seems that this person is not simple, and found that all the servants who passed by the garden were walking around the rockery, Jin Xi, based on the principle that more things are worse than less things, pulled up Qing Xing, who was watching the excitement, and ran, but she stopped after running a few steps down.

This rockery is as high as two people, and below it is a dry lotus pond as deep as one person and has not been filled with water. If this person turns over and falls, his tendons will be broken if he does not die.Even if he didn't fall off, the spring was cold, and he would have a serious illness when he woke up from sleeping on the cold stone.

Thinking of the adoptive father who drank too much and froze to death in the snow in his previous life, Jin Xi felt as if a big rock was pressing on his chest, turned around and walked to the bottom of the rockery, picked up a dead tree branch and stabbed the man on the arm twice, "Hey Wake up, don't sleep here, wake up!"
