Chapter 3 Qixi Cloud Cake
Taohua raised her head: "Taohua just doesn't want to get married. Taohua has lost her previous memories. To be honest, Taohua's heart is still undecided. If Taohua has married before, and one woman does not serve two husbands, it is time for her family to come to her. How to deal with yourself."

Guanshi Xu looked at Taohua's phoenix eyes, but was speechless, and sighed with lowered eyes: "Forget it, I understand, and Xu will not bother me in the future."

Taohua looked at Guanshi Xu's leaving back, frowned slightly, Guanshi Xu is a smart person, otherwise he wouldn't have taken care of the city lord's mansion so properly, naturally he knew what he meant.But since I rejected Guanshi Xu, I don't know what other people will think of me.Originally, because of his face, the other maids didn't like him very much. If he was targeted because of this, his life in the City Lord's Mansion would be difficult.

Thinking of this, Taohua stopped cutting the cloud cake, and was dumbfounded: "Hiss..."

Taohua looked down and saw that the index finger was cut, and hurriedly put the index finger in her mouth.

"Hey! All the servants in Qixi Mansion are on vacation, why are you here alone?" Chu Yi walked in from the door, reached out and took a cloud cake from the chopping board and stuffed it into his mouth, then frowned: " What a sweet smell."

Taohua took out her index finger from her mouth: "I accidentally cut my hand, why don't you eat some after watching it." Taohua reached out and threw a few pieces of red-dyed cloud cakes on the table into the trash can next to it.

"Show me your hand." As he said that, Chu Yi pulled Taohua's hand, seeing that the knife edge on his index finger was still oozing blood, he took out a handkerchief from his bosom and wrapped it around Taohua's finger, and ran across Taohua's hand The palm of his hand frowned: "How can a woman have so many calluses on her hands?"

Taohua withdrew her hand: "Poor people have a lot of hard work, so naturally they also have a lot of cocoons." Taohua didn't know it very well, but judging from the rags on Old Man Wu's body when he rescued him, he shouldn't be a poor person. It's just that I really can't think of anything, I can only think of some reasons to rationalize these things.

Chu Yi sighed: "It's a pity about your face."

Taohua sneered: "Face? This can't change anything?"

Chu Yi scratched his head and pulled the clothes on his body: "At least it looks pleasing to the eye."

Taohua smiled slightly: "That's nothing, the place where the appearance is useful is the harem besides the brothel." After speaking, Taohua put away her smile, curled her index finger, and cut the remaining cloud cake.

"Who do you want to give your cloud cake to?" Chu Yi teased.

Tao Hua focused on cutting: "This is reserved for the family, I don't plan to give it to anyone."

Chu Yi smiled: "Are you telling me that this flower of yours has not yet had a owner and is waiting for someone to pick it?"

Putting down the kitchen knife, Taohua made a cup of sweet-scented osmanthus tea and handed it to Chu Yi: "Master Wu, this is the second time to test Taohua. Taohua doesn't have any other ideas. Do you want to ask again?"

Chu Yi laughed loudly: "Haha...you are so straightforward, you know I'm tempting but you still say it?"

Taohua took a sip of sweet-scented osmanthus tea, and showed a faint smile: "Since you know it, you can tell it. Besides, Taohua doesn't like to be tested by others. If you ask me about my depth, I will tell you."

"You're interesting." Chu Yi shook his head, he just didn't want to have another troublesome person in his room, since she didn't have those extra thoughts around her, she just told herself that, it's good to be pleasing to the eye.Peach blossoms are good-looking, but there are also many good-looking people around me, and it doesn't matter if one more or one less.

Taohua took off the apron on her body, then took off the handkerchief on her hand, went out and washed in the clay basin next to her.

Chu Yi looked at her and said nothing, sitting in the small yard of the kitchen, eating cloud cakes, drinking sweet-scented osmanthus tea, watching the fireworks in the sky far away, life is really pleasant.

Taohua lit a few short pieces of firewood, and carefully dried the handkerchief. The wound on her hand stopped bleeding a long time ago, and her own wounds are always better than ordinary people, which is a good thing.

After a while, the handkerchief was dry, and Taohua handed it to Chu Yi: "Thank you, Fifth Master, for the handkerchief."

Chu Yi also put it away as he said. He naturally understood the meaning of what he gave her on the night of Qixi Festival today, and she returned it tactfully.

Taohua picked up the cloud cake from the plate next to it and put it in her mouth. The sweet taste permeated her mouth. Taohua smiled and narrowed her eyes. The taste of cloud cake was a bit nostalgic. Why did she feel this way?
"Do you like this cloud cake?" Chu Yi's voice interrupted Taohua's thinking, he opened his eyes and turned his head to look at him: "It seems to have a feeling of nostalgia. I have lost the memory of the past, so I want to know, but You probably like it very much." Looking at Chu Yi's slowly approaching hand in surprise, until the warm fingers touched his cheek, he said in a low and magnetic voice, "You are crying."

Tao Hua turned her face sideways, avoiding Chu Yi's hand, and touched her cheek with her hand: "Yes, I actually shed tears."

"Why did you lose your previous memory?" Chu Yi withdrew his hand and asked curiously.

Taohua drooped her eyelids. Not everyone said this kind of thing, and it was because Chu Yi might be his future master that he said: "I was rescued from the Shahe River by people from Wujia Village, and when I woke up, I didn't have the same feeling as before. memory."

Chu Yi smiled: "Then how did you get the name Taohua?"

Taohua was a little embarrassed, she lowered her head, her cheeks flushed, "Because Aunt Wu said that I look like a peach blossom when I smile."

"Haha! Indeed! A person lives up to his name!" Chu Yi laughed loudly, and felt extremely amused by Tao Hua's embarrassment.

Taohua frowned and gave Chu Yi a hard look, got up and walked towards her own room next to her.

"Hey, wait, don't go!" Chu Yi got up and chased after him, still smiling all over his face: "You are so interesting, now pack up your things and follow me to my yard."

Tao Hua said goodbye: "Then young master, don't make fun of me by my name."

"It's nature, it's just nature." Although the name is a bit funny, it's not what a gentleman does to make fun of others.

Taohua went into the house, packed two or three pieces of clothes and her belongings of ten taels of silver, and went out.

"So fast?" Chu Yi looked at the small package in her hand and understood that she didn't have much: "Then come with me."

Tao Hua followed Chu Yi to the gate of his courtyard: "Yi lives alone."

Chu Yi raised his eyebrows: "Are you literate?"

Taohua pursed her lips: "Should be literate, what's the matter?"

Chu Yi shook his head: "Even if there are ladies in Wu Guoli, some of them may not be able to read and write. A woman is a woman who has talent and virtue." After finishing speaking, he waved his hand indifferently: "Your accent is not from Wu Guoli. , probably from the country of Yue, the status of women in the country of Yue is high, if you can read and write, it is really worth thinking about who you were before."

Chu Yi's words are indeed worthy of Taohua's careful consideration. If it is true that Chu Yi said that he is from the country of Yue, then the first thing he will do after he redeems himself is to visit the country of Yue.

"Fifth Master!" A young man in simple book children's clothes ran over, looking at himself carefully from the corner of his eye.

Chu Yi pointed at Taohua and said, "I just recruited her from the kitchen, her name is Taohua. Tell Guanshi Xu later that she will be the second-class maid in my room from now on."

Why is it a second-class maid, because there is only one first-class maid in a room, who has been by the young master's side since childhood, and will be the young master's maid in the future, and even his concubine.

"Yes, Fan Zhu is going now." Fan Zhu ran out with his head down.

Taohua looked at the yard, and the scenery inside was also very unique, with random bamboos, green stones and rockery, each place had its own charm.Taohua sized it up a few times, and soon saw Guanshi Xu coming, it seemed that she rejected him, and he didn't leave the house tonight.He glanced at himself complicatedly, and then walked to a side room next to him: "There are not many people in Fifth Master's room, and there are many vacancies. This room has not been occupied for a long time, so you can simply clean it."

Before Guanshi Xu went out, Taohua nodded slightly: "Thank you, Guanshi Xu, Taohua knows what I should do and what I shouldn't do." Although this passage sounds a bit pretentious, then Guanshi Xu may not take it to heart, he must think that he is extravagant Those delusions, but since they failed the good intentions of others, Tao Hua still wanted to explain.

A sarcastic smile crossed the corner of Xu Guanshi's lips, and he left the door without another word.

Taohua looked at the dust in the room and knew that no one lived there, so she wore a face towel and cleaned up the dust.

"Are you new here?" A clear voice came from the door.

Taohua turned around: "You are?"

"Yunxia, ​​the big maid here at Fifth Master." The visitor looked at him, seeing that most of his face was covered by a towel, he raised his eyebrows impatiently: "I heard people say your name is Taohua?"

"Yes." Taohua nodded.

"Taohua took off the face towel, let me see."

Taohua tore off the scarf, and Yunxia stopped talking.Looking at it complicatedly, it is indeed good-looking, even more beautiful than Yunxia herself, but the two really cannot be compared together. Yunxia belongs to Qingli's beauty, which makes people look very comfortable.However, Taohua's appearance is not so good-looking that other women can look comfortable. Zhang Yang's phoenix eyes are very gorgeous, and she has an unspeakable momentum.

"You...you are pretty. Forget it, the fifth master is often away from the house, so there are fewer maids in the room than in other rooms, and there is only Xiaoyue as the second-class maid. It would be nice to have one more of you." Yunxia stopped talking, although the other party Her status is slightly lower than her own, but this appearance should not be underestimated in the future. If she flies on a branch and becomes a phoenix, she cannot be offended.I am not that stupid woman Yun Duo in the second master's room, she only wants to monopolize the second master, only smart people and stupid people who know that they are stupid can stay in this kind of high-class mansion, fools who think they are smart often stay It's not long, and even if you are not careful, you will lose your life.
