Who says maids don't fall for the city

Chapter 12
He didn't move, just stared at me blankly.

"You idiot!" With a soft shout, he was immediately pulled in, and changed into a young woman's face.She looked me up and down, and suddenly said: "Are you the girl Mrs. Mo brought today?" The voice was Maid B.

I nodded.

"Then what's the matter with you?" She stared at me a little warily.

I smiled embarrassingly, "I'm hungry, where can I go for dinner?" While talking, I took the opportunity to look at the people in the room - all four maids were there, but there was only one servant.After seeing it clearly, he turned his gaze back to Maid B.

She thought about it, maybe she saw that my attitude was quite good, and she didn't mean to be provocative.So make way. "We just made some food, if you don't mind, come in and eat some."

I thanked him with a smile and went into the house.Talk and eat with them.

Maid A's name is Chunhua, Maid B's name is Qiuyue, and the other two are called Liangchen and Jishi respectively.The boy in the house is called Fugui, and the other boy is called Ping An, who has gone home on business.

I almost spit out my mouthful when they called out their names, and then coughed as to who named them.The result was as expected - and only that idiot Cheng Feng would choose a random name just to save trouble.

After filling their stomachs, they asked about their daily work, and then it was getting late, so everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

I overslept in the afternoon. When I got back, I didn’t feel sleepy, but my stomach was too full, so I couldn’t fall asleep.Don't want to waste time, just get up and sort things out.

Hearing Chengfeng's words, and adding what Riyue Shao said to Shizi that day, "The third child was tricked...", I think my arrest should be related to this incident.It may be that he made a bet with someone that I would come, but I didn't go, so he lost face and was laughed at, so he felt resentful towards me.In addition, he went to see the prince that day, and the prince was busy with my marriage, so he didn't say a few words to him, so he might also blame me.

Thinking about it this way, I also feel that my current situation is reasonable.It seems that we should not target him too much in the future.

I thought life would be difficult, but I didn't expect that nearly half a month had passed, and I didn't even see Cheng Feng's shadow.After getting up every morning, I follow Chunhua and Qiuyue to sweep the ground, water the potted plants, and spend my days leisurely.

Anyway, she was also a maid, so she is quite comfortable with the current life.Qiuyue and the others are very easy to get along with, but she may have misunderstood that Fugui is interested in me, so it is inevitable that there will be some ridicule in her speech.But I laughed it off.

The Ping An who came home also came back, and he was also a very good person.It's just that his thinking is a little rigid, every time he sees Fugui hanging out with the rest of us chatting, he will drag Fugui away with a straight face, while shouting "men and women can't get along with each other".It made our stomachs ache from laughing.

During that time, Mrs. Mo came to see me a few times, and when she saw that I was doing well, she smiled and left.After a few days, lanterns and colorful decorations began to be held in the princess mansion.Seeing my doubts, Chunhua explained that it was almost the time when the son-in-law and the princess got married. Although the son-in-law was gone now, the eldest princess had to take care of it every year.The well-known artists of Daye will be invited to perform, and there will even be songs and dances from other countries.

After hearing this, I was also excited.Last time when the princess celebrated her birthday, I didn't have a chance to see the performance because I went to see the lanterns.Now it's an eye-opener!
Once there is hope in my heart, time flies by.In a blink of an eye, it was the time for the banquet at the princess mansion. Because we allocated it to someone who was popular, we didn't have anyone to order trivial matters, and we were free.

After dinner, our five maids dragged Fugui out of Xiaoyuan. Although Ping An was angry, Nian only had such an opportunity once or twice a year, so he didn't forcefully stop us.It's just that he refused to be lazy, and ran to help carry things foolishly.

But it is indeed too conspicuous for six people to shake together in the yard.After discussing with a few people, they decided to go in a group of three and go shopping in their own places.I got into a group with Qiuyue and Fugui, and headed for the banquet hall in a dark corner.

Along the way, I kept hearing people talking about Ling Wu, and there was infinite admiration in their words.I asked, "Who is Ling Wu?"

Qiuyue sneered, and Fugui quickly helped me clear up my doubts: "Ling Wu is the number one violinist in Qingze. It is said that his piano skills are superb and can move the heavens and earth. He has never performed in Daye, and he is only a royal patriarch like the princess. Only then can you please move him."

I nodded, and I began to have expectations in my heart.It looks like there will be a lot to gain this time!

Several people wanted to find a place with a good line of sight to watch the performance, but after looking for it, it was easy to expose their location or they couldn't see the stage clearly.In the end, Qiuyue lost her temper and simply led us to the backstage, saying that she was watching from the side of the stage, so that she could be more careful.We thought there was no better way, so we didn't object, and obediently stood behind the big tree on the side of the gravel road, waiting for the opening to get in.

The sky is getting darker and darker, and the courtyard is lit with lanterns, the colors are bright and very beautiful.

Unconsciously holding up the gravel on the ground, he glanced at Qiuyue: "When will it start?"

She waved her hand impatiently, "Hurry up, hurry up, what are you in a hurry for?! You really haven't seen the world!" After she finished speaking, she continued to stare at the ladies and ladies passing by, counting the wonderful clothes they wore. What kind of makeup, what classic hair style.

I was bored listening to it, but I was afraid that stopping it would cause a dispute.Seeing that she didn't pay attention to me, I thought about sneaking backstage. It's better to watch an actor put on makeup than to listen to her talk.

Stepping on the small wooden ladder to the backstage, the figures inside shuttled back and forth.I pretended to be calm, but no one suspected me, they just thought I was here to see the preparations.

Looking around, it's quite interesting to see people putting on makeup and changing clothes.Let's not talk about Daye's, those exotic dancers are all dressed up in strange clothes, looking fresh.

It's just a few girls gathered in a corner, talking words that I don't understand, looking very anxious.One of the women saw me from a distance, beckoned them to stop, and then walked towards me.Her hair is long and curly, with a slight brown, swaying around her waist, full of charm.With deep eyes, although half of her face is covered by a veil, she must be a beauty.

"Excuse me, are you the servant girl of the Princess Mansion?" She stood still in front of me, her pronunciation a little stiff.

I nod. "What's wrong? Do you need my help?"

When she heard this, her frowning brows slightly relaxed, and a few gentle smiles appeared in her eyes. "We are dancers from Muyun, invited to perform for the eldest princess." Seeing the effort she said, I listened carefully. "However, we have a companion who is probably not acclimatized to the environment. He suddenly vomited and diarrhea today. I'm afraid he won't be able to participate in the performance. I would like you to tell the eldest princess that our show may be cancelled."

Let me find Cheng Yue?I don't know how many things will happen.But her anxious look was very pitiful, she glanced at it, but saw Mrs. Mo was leading someone to move the utensils, so she shouted: "Sister Mo!"

She followed the voice, and when she saw it was me, she was startled, and walked forward quickly. "Why did you come out?! If someone sees..." At this point, he suddenly stopped talking and stared at me complainingly.

I smiled awkwardly, looked at the foreign woman beside me, and explained: "Sister-in-law Mo is the princess's close friend, and she is the most important one."

She understood, and repeated what happened with Mrs. Mo.Mrs. Mo frowned more and more.Before she could finish speaking, she interrupted: "No! The princess has already set the program list for this time, and all the guests who come here will have a share. If it is changed midway, how can I explain to the princess?! It's just missing One person, it probably won't have any impact."

The dancer was also anxious, "But Mingzhu is our lead dancer, without her, we wouldn't be able to dance at all!"

Aunt Mo's eyebrows were upside down: "Then I can't control it, you can find someone to replace you, or change to another dance, it's impossible to cancel!" After speaking, she turned and left, walked a few steps, and then looked back at me, "Hurry up and go back to the yard, don't cause any trouble!" Then he continued to work.

I looked at the dancer shyly, "Sorry, I couldn't help you."

She shook her head, forcing a smile. "It's not your fault..., it's just that everything in this dance has been calculated, where to find someone..." The voice suddenly stopped, and she stared at me with bright eyes, and she was amazed. "Girl, your figure is very similar to Mingzhu, why don't you help us and dance for her!"

"Me?!" I was shocked and waved my hands quickly, "I, I can't do it, I can't dance." As I said that, I turned around and wanted to escape.

But her companion came to us at some point and surrounded me.When they heard the woman's words, they looked me up and down, nodded and communicated in words that I couldn't understand, and they seemed to agree very much.

The leading woman grabbed my hand and said, "Just treat it as a good deed, don't refuse anymore. I'll show you a dance of pearls first, count as much as you can remember, we can only do our best, Listen to fate."

Although Mrs. Mo couldn't cancel the program, she helped to move the sequence to the back so that we had time to prepare.

I drove the ducks to the shelves, and was forced to change clothes, and then came to the open space with the dance clothes of the foreign woman to watch her demonstrate.Wu Yi smiled and glanced at me, her eyes full of charm.Lightly tap the right foot, turn the body, and the skirt dances with the wind, which is beyond words.

She danced once, watched me dance again, and then let me practice on my own.

I saw her disappear at the end of the stone road, and I thought of running away.But think about it, if they can't make a show, they don't know what punishment they will have.So I acted like I was a good person, and repeated the actions seriously.

The dance of the foreign race is full of enthusiasm and has a large range of movements, but after a while, I am already exhausted.There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, his cheeks were warm, and he sat down against a tree as soon as his body softened.

The heat of the noon has long been replaced by the coolness of the night, and the cool breeze blows on the body very comfortably.He breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling a sense of satisfaction that he could relax after being tired, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

The cicadas were singing, and the moonlight combined with the light from afar covered the body, and there was an indescribable warmth.

"Are you the Xuannv of Nine Heavens who fell into the mortal world by mistake?" A clear and mellow voice sounded close at hand.

I opened my eyes suddenly, and saw a man in white leaning over to look at me, his purple eyes were clear to the bottom, faintly revealing the pride and joy of finding the treasure.

I was stunned, but relaxed because of the reassuring aura emanating from him.With a thought, the corners of his lips suddenly curled up, and the next second he saw the woman's charming smile reflected in his eyes.Sweet and pleasant.

Wrapping his hands around his neck, he stood up slightly with strength, the tip of his nose almost touching his chin.

"I came down to find you, don't you know?" I said slowly, with a slight smile between my words.

He froze suddenly, and suddenly let out a low laugh.He wrapped his hands around my waist suddenly, and then pulled me up hard.We were only a foot apart, and we could hear each other's heartbeats.

"I think," he said in a low voice, "I must be waiting for you to come looking for me." His empty hand touched my chin lightly, his fingers were white and slender, as clear as jade under the moonlight, clean and beautiful .

"I..." I just wanted to make a joke at first, but he just started to play.Now his body has already froze, and he just stared blankly at him.

He suddenly let out a low laugh, let go of his arms around me, and took a step back to look at me.The purple eyes and the moonlight complement each other, exuding a faint light.

Molesting and being molested are often just a thought.

For a while, neither of them spoke, the silence was terrifying.

"Are you from the princess mansion?" I couldn't stand it anymore, so I had to break the deadlock.

He smiled lightly and didn't speak.

He just stood there quietly, but he looked like a fairy, as if he was the one who descended from the mortal world.

I wanted to ask again, but I was afraid of being abrupt.

"If there is a chance, I will rob you." He said suddenly.

"Ah!" I yelled in a daze, then nodded, "Okay!"

He paused for a moment, and a smile appeared in his eyes after a while.

Seeing Wu Yi approaching from a distance, it must be that the time is coming.I smiled and said: "I still have something to do, see you next time." After finishing speaking, I ran past him to the dance clothes, he stretched out his hand, but it still fell back to his side.

When Wu Yi got closer, she stopped in place with a complicated expression on her face.

I ran up to her and saw her eyes fall behind me, "What's wrong?"

Startled, she smiled stiffly at me. "It's okay, it's about to start, let's go."

The silk veil covered half of the face, only revealing a pair of eyes, looking at the stage covered with red carpet.

The music sounded, and the exotic instruments played a different style.The dancers came out in time, twisting their waists a little bit, winking like silk.

Wu Yi glanced at me while I was free, I nodded to her, grabbed the white silk in my hand, took a deep breath, and immediately swung from the beam.The cool wind came head-on, blowing the Liuhai in front of the forehead, shaking it gently.Countless sweet-scented osmanthus flowers suddenly floated down from the sky, overflowing with fragrance.

There was a sound of breathing under the stage, as if they were shocked by this way of appearance.As soon as my feet hit the ground, I didn't let go of the silk, but continued to hold on to it, dancing around with it.The movements are all within the abbot, but the dance steps are indescribably graceful.

Wu Yi smiled at me appreciatively and danced even more vigorously.

One step, two steps, bending the body, lowering the waist, I seem to regard this as my mission, and try my best to perform this dance.The melancholy in my heart and the confusion of not being able to see the future flowed out with sweat, and my mind gradually cleared up.

With a glance, he saw that the dignitaries in the audience were already fascinated, and Cheng Yue was holding a glass of wine in his hand, with a dazed expression, as if he didn't take all this into his eyes.But since she doesn't like these songs and dances, why does she spend so much time preparing for it every year?

Turning his gaze, he saw that the man in purple who was sitting at the bottom of Cheng Yue frowned slightly, and seemed to be staring at the stage, more precisely, at me in doubt.

I was startled, and then quickly spun along with the sound of the music, and the skirt danced in circles, although it was coquettish, it was still beautiful.

I just hope he doesn't recognize me.

With the last turn, the music stopped abruptly.Everyone raised the hem of their skirts slightly, saluted, and hurriedly stepped back from the side.
