In the past, she didn't care about the maidservant in Yan Shu's courtyard, but she complained in her heart why the princess found such a young girl for Yan Shu.
But she never said anything.
But none of the people she sent over stayed, and Yan Shu declined every time.
At first, the old lady thought that her grandson thought the crabapple was new, and it would be fine after a while.
But five years passed in a blink of an eye, and Yan Shu's marriage was still not settled.
There was no one around except this little maidservant.
The old lady remembered that when she told Yan Shu that he was short of people to serve him, he said, "My grandson doesn't need anyone to serve him. I have enough people around him."
Yan Shu liked quietness since he was a child, and there was only one servant beside him, Mu Tong, and later there was Haitang.
How could there be enough people?
Not to mention that she saw Haitang coming out of Yan Shu's study several times.
You should know that this grandson loves books as much as his life. Even the princess and Yan Cheng need his consent to enter his study.
But Haitang entered casually.
The old lady realized that the thing that she thought was a toy at the beginning was still there after so many years.
She would not allow it.
Her grandson naturally had a bright future. If he had a wife and a son, it would not be a big deal to have a Haitang or Baihe around him.
But now he is already a young man, and he has never thought about taking the imperial examinations in these years. He has been obsessed with this woman every day.
This is not okay.
He didn't come back from the banquet two days ago, so the old lady had to come here today.
Ping, the girl beside her, had to stay today.
"Haitang is very anxious. Old lady, please rest in the side hall. The young master should be here soon." Xu Mi'er bowed slightly and turned sideways.
The old lady glanced at her, her eyes were full of scrutiny.
Just as Mu Tong was getting ready, she said lightly, "Kneel for a quarter of an hour and then go find your young master."
After that, she took the woman beside her to the side hall.
The personal nanny stayed, probably to watch over Mu Tong.
Xu Mi'er knew that this might be directed at her.
She glanced at Mu Tong, who was obviously anxious, and signaled him not to panic.
Then she followed the old lady and the girl into the room.
The girl's voice was very clear, and she was a little surprised when she saw the parrot beside the corridor, "What a beautiful parrot."
"If you like it, just ask your cousin to give it to you. Your cousin is always generous. He will just look at these small toys that are not presentable, and he doesn't spend much time on them." The old lady's words were full of special meaning.
The girl said happily, "Okay."
Xu Mi'er sighed and glanced at the parrot.
The parrot suddenly flapped its wings and flew away.
The girl exclaimed, "Hey, it's snowing outside, how cold~"
She cared about a parrot being cold, but didn't care about what would happen if Mu Tong knelt in the snow for a quarter of an hour. What a simple and ignorant lady.
Xu Mi'er thought of Yan Shu coming to her with a parrot happily, and the parrot said, "Good Haitang, come and play with me!"
It seemed that they had a quarrel over something that time, and she didn't want to pay attention to him for a few days.
I don't know where he found such a clever and eccentric thing.
He called her "good sister", "good girl", "little begonia" one after another.
He said coaxing words and free words one by one.
Until he said, "My dear, I was wrong~ I feel uncomfortable when you ignore me~" Yan Shu pinched his mouth, "Hey, why do you say everything."
The boy's fair face turned red, and he muttered, "The previous boss taught me..."
Later, he learned from Mu Tong that this parrot couldn't speak at all when he bought it, and all the words were taught by Yan Shu word by word.
Xu Mi'er suddenly felt relieved.
She never doubted Yan Shu's feelings for her. Even though she knew he was angry with her these days, she still knew that he would not abandon her.
The servants in the side hall brought charcoal and tea, and Xu Mi'er stood aside.
The old lady said, "I heard the princess mention it. I think Haitang's tea-making skills are good. You make some for Ping'er to try. Shu'er also likes it. Ping'er can learn to make tea for Shu'er in the future."
Xu Mi'er clenched the handkerchief in her hand. The princess and Yan Shu had said that she didn't need to make tea for others.
The old lady's implicit meaning made Xu Mi'er feel uncomfortable.
She washed her hands silently. The little maid who was going to make tea looked at Xu Mi'er worriedly.
This mansion
Everyone knows that Miss Haitang is coaxed and protected by the young master as if he were his apple of the eye.
Although she is a maid, she is served by Aunt Lvyi.
It's just that Aunt Lvyi is away from home these days because of something.
They all understood what the old lady said just now, so how could Miss Haitang not understand?
The little maid was a little anxious and gave a look to the person standing at the door.
Before the maid turned around, she saw their young master walking over with big strides, and there were snowflakes on his body.
The bright parrot stood on the young master's shoulder, and Mu Tong and the nanny followed behind him.
Xu Mi'er had just picked up the tea set when he heard Yan Shu's voice, "Why didn't you tell me that grandma was here?"
His hands were still cold, and he reached out and held Xu Mi'er's hand holding the tea set, and said to the little maid beside him, "Make tea for the old lady and cousin."
The little girl named Ping'er's eyes lit up when she saw Yan Shu, and she stood up with shyness on her face and saluted him, "Cousin."
Yan Shu avoided the salute, "You're welcome."
The old lady's eyes fell on Yan Shu's hand holding Xu Mi'er, "I don't need to tell you that you are here too?"
The voice was very light, and her eyes fell on Mu Tong and the nanny.
The nanny shook her head gently, and the boy had been kneeling just now.
Yan Shu pulled Xu Mi'er to sit aside, and the parrot on his shoulder jumped onto Xu Mi'er's shoulder. Yan Shu sighed, "Don't scratch her."
The old lady's face was cold, "Is this the rule of the princess's mansion? A servant is equal to the master?"
Yan Shu didn't expect the old lady to be so direct today. She must be really angry.
Xu Mi'er stood up and was about to kneel down to pay her respects, but Yan Shu stood up and supported her.
Looking at the old lady, "Grandma, are you here to get angry with me today? Then don't involve others."
The old lady looked at him, "Others? You must have guessed why I came today. Shu'er, you have been gifted since childhood, and we have always cared less about you, but this marriage is not a joke. You said that you dare not think about getting married without fame. Okay, Ping'er stays today, and there is someone around you who knows the cold and heat."
Ping'er stood aside with a shy face.
Although my cousin has a beautiful maid, she is just a servant after all, and we can sell her off with an excuse.
Li Ping'er looked at the handsome Yan Shu and thought to herself that if it was my cousin, she would be willing to be his concubine.
