Since Xia'er spoke for Mr. Zhao last time, Yue'er no longer needs her to serve her closely. In addition, among the four girls who follow Yue'er, only Xia'er makes the most delicious cakes. Yue'er has
She was pregnant and often hungry, so Xia'er simply stayed in the kitchen to help, so she rarely went to the house to serve.
But based on her understanding of the young lady, the young lady would not be willing to raise the baby in the mansion, and would definitely go to the Anling Hou Mansion to see the situation in person.
The young lady must have been worried that Chun'er would persuade her to delay her time, so she pushed Chun'er away, and then left the Prime Minister's Mansion with a maid. Fuzi had never served the young lady in person, and even if he followed the young lady out, he would not dare to mess around.
say.
Xia'er saw that Chun'er had entered the house and came out of the kitchen with a cup of hot tea. She walked to Fuzi's side and said to Fuzi, "Be careful of catching a cold. Drink this cup of hot tea."
"Sister Xia'er, you can't do this." Fuzi said tremblingly.
The four girls in Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter are the eldest girls around Yue'er. On weekdays, they don't have to do any work. They only need to be close to serve the young lady. Because the young lady is pregnant, Xia'er goes to the small kitchen to prepare medicine and cook for the young lady herself.
Normally, they don't need to do anything to make pastries. Now that Sister Xia'er actually brought her a cup of tea herself, Fuzi was naturally at a loss.
"We are all a family, so there is nothing we can do about it. Drink it while it's hot, it will get cold in a while." Xia'er handed the tea to Fuzi and said.
After Fuzi thanked Xia'er, he took the tea, and Xia'er also returned to the kitchen. He had gone out with the lady just now, and he was indeed a little chilly. After drinking a cup of hot tea, Fuzi felt that his whole body was warm.
After Fuzi finished drinking the tea, he sent the tea cup to the small kitchen. Seeing Xia'er making cakes, he said, "Thank you, sister Xia'er. I feel much warmer after drinking tea."
"It shouldn't be too cold on the carriage. It's probably because you were too nervous to go out with the lady for the first time." Xia Er said.
"It is true that we went out in a carriage, but when we arrived at the door of Zhao's house, the young lady ordered us to get off the carriage. The young lady said that riding in the carriage was a bit boring and wanted to get down for a walk. The young lady just wandered around casually until we reached South Street.
Nearby, I heard a group of women discussing the scene of the young master's appointment. After listening for a while, the lady said she was a little tired, so she hired a carriage and came back." Fuzi said.
Because Xia'er's cup of hot tea made Fuzi feel very friendly, so she didn't think too much about what she said. After Xia'er heard this, she knew that her guess was right. The young lady had indeed gone to the Anling Marquis Mansion.
nearby.
Xia'er was making pastries in the small kitchen, and Fuzi stayed with her until the pastries were out of the pan. Xia'er picked a few items and put them on the plate and said, "These pastries are for you to try."
"Sister Xia'er, this is made for the young lady, how dare you eat it?" Fuzi said.
"Miss can't eat so much. I just made some more on purpose to let you have a taste of my cooking." Xia'er said.
"Thank you, Sister Xia'er. I heard that Sister Xia'er is very good at cooking, but she rarely goes to the kitchen. Now, because of the young lady, this slave has a real treat." Fuzi said with a smile.
"There are some things you shouldn't say nonsense. You have to remember that this is the Prime Minister's Mansion." Xia Er instructed.
"What Sister Xia'er said is that this slave has lost his mind," Fuzi said.
Fuzi understood what Xia'er meant. The young lady was unmarried and pregnant. It would be disgraceful if this matter spread. The servants in the yard knew it well, but no one dared to talk nonsense. Because they knew that if this matter spread, it would be bad luck.
The first one is them.
At this time in the past, the lady would definitely be hungry. Xia'er would make some cakes and send them over at this time every day. Today, Chun'er had already made glutinous rice cakes in advance, so Xia'er didn't bring over the cakes. Some of them were left behind.
In addition to Fuzi, I also left some for Chun'er.
Xia'er has been staying in the small kitchen for a long time, and has long been used to it. She knows that what she said offended the lady, otherwise she would not have to serve her closely. You must know that in the past, she almost never left the lady's side, which is completely different from now.
.
When she first came to the small kitchen, she was still a little uncomfortable, as if she had been wronged. But now she has not only adapted to it, but also likes working in the small kitchen. She doesn't have to work hard to guess the lady's heart every day.
I think, I just need to boil medicine and make cakes for the lady.
In fact, she just couldn't figure it out. The young lady clearly hated the young cousin before, and she only wanted to get close to the young cousin to do things for her. But now that the young cousin is getting married, she should be happy. At least, the young cousin will not do it in the future.
I will pester the young lady. However, the young lady seemed to be really sad when she heard that her young cousin was engaged.
Now that the young lady is about to get married, what are you still wondering about Master Biao?
When Chun'er entered the small kitchen, Xia'er was still dazed. Chun'er sat next to Xia'er and said, "I'm thinking about something. I'm so lost in thought."
Xia'er came back to her senses and said, "I left some cakes for you, you can eat some first."
Xia'er brought out the cakes, then poured a cup of tea for Chun'er and placed it in front of Chun'er. Chun'er ate one piece and said, "Miss, I only used two pieces of the glutinous rice cake just now."
"So Miss is a little hungry now?" Xia Er asked.
Chun'er said: "The lady said she had no appetite and only drank all the fruit tea. I knew she wanted to eat glutinous rice cakes in order to distract me."
"I asked Fuzi just now." Xia'er said.
"Where did the lady go?" Chun'er asked.
"Young lady indeed went out to find out about Master Cousin's appointment," Xia Er said.
Xia'er told Chun'er everything Fuzi told her. Chun'er frowned slightly and said, "No wonder the lady has been depressed since she came back."
"What didn't the lady say?" Xia'er asked.
"What can the lady say? After she came back, her lips turned purple from the cold. She didn't recover until she drank fruit tea. I'm really worried that the lady is freezing." Chun'er said.
"I'm going to make some ginger tea now. You can bring it to the lady later and let her drink it while it's hot. Now that I'm pregnant, it's better to be careful." Xia'er said.
"You are right. If Madam finds out, she will definitely be punished." Chun'er said anxiously.
"Punishment is a small matter. If something happens, it will be more than just punishment." Xia'er said.
After Xia'er finished speaking, she started making ginger tea. Soon the ginger tea was ready. Xia'er poured the tea into a bowl, then handed it to Chun'er and said, "Send it over quickly. I want to come now."
It hasn’t slowed down yet.”
"Xia'er, fortunately I have you, otherwise I would definitely be punished by my wife." Chun'er said.
After Chun'er left, Xia'er poured out the remaining ginger tea and waved to Fuzi outside. After Fuzi came in, Xia'er said, "Quick, drink it while it's hot. This is what I just prepared."
Ginger tea."
"This is ginger tea made for Miss. I thought you must have caught a cold when you went out with Miss. You'd better drink some ginger tea, otherwise you won't be able to get up tomorrow." Xia'er said.
This time Fuzi didn't refuse, and drank the ginger tea completely. He said to Xia'er, "Thank you, sister Xia'er, for your concern."
"When I was making ginger tea for Miss, I made some more." Xia'er said.
"Did the lady catch a cold? The lady has been recuperating in the house these days, and has not even come out of the house. Today she suddenly left the house and got off the carriage for a walk. By the way, she hasn't picked up the soup, so she must be freezing."
Fuzi said.
"So, after listening to Chun'er's words, I made ginger tea for the lady." Xia'er said.
"No one has ever treated a slave so well. Sister Xia'er is the first one." Fuzi said gratefully.
"Let's rest early today. You don't need to keep vigil all night." Xia'er said.
"How can this be done? Today is the slave's turn to keep vigil." Fuzi said.
"I'll take your place tonight. You have a good rest. Otherwise, if you fall ill, who will do your job?" Xia Er said with a smile.
"This slave knows." Fuzi said.
Chun'er entered the house carrying ginger tea. Yue'er raised her eyes and looked at Chun'er who came in, and asked, "What are you holding in your hand?"
"Xia'er was worried that Miss would catch a cold, so she made ginger tea specially for you." Chun'er said.
"She seems to be interested," Yue'er said.
Chun'er brought the ginger tea over, and Yue'er drank it while it was hot. After going out, Yue'er did catch a cold. It wasn't until she drank a bowl of ginger tea that she felt her whole body warm up.
"Tell her that she doesn't have to work too hard in the small kitchen and doesn't have to do everything by herself," Yue'er said.
"Miss, you don't feel safe giving your medicine to someone else, Xia'er, so Xia'er has always prepared the medicine for you personally," Chun'er said.
"I know all this. Even the pastries I use every day are made by her herself, isn't it? From now on, she won't have to do any of this. She will just help me make the medicine." Yue'er said.
"It's Miss. I will tell Xia'er soon," Chun'er said.
"Chun'er, everyone on the street is talking about the appointment of the Zhao family. Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I know it must be very lively." Yue'er said.
"Miss, I know that Miss is bored at home. If you want to go out to relax in the future, you must take Chun'er with you. At least if something happens, Chun'er will help Miss take care of it so that you won't freeze." Chun'er said.
"I know I shouldn't hide it from you, but if I tell you, will you agree to go out with me today?" Yue'er said.
"If Miss wants to go out, Chun'er will not stop you. However, Chun'er will make some preparations in advance. At least he will help Miss prepare the soup." Chun'er said.
"I'm going to get married in just a few days. Once I get married, I can't leave the house as casually as I do now. I know you're worried that people will see that I'm pregnant, but don't worry, I'm wearing loose clothes.
Clothes, plus it's winter, no one will notice." Yue'er said.
"That's the best. If it gets spread, it will be bad for the lady's reputation." Chun'er said.
"Actually, I know that you and Xia'er are both loyal. It's just that Xia'er has recently focused on helping her cousin speak up, so I deliberately don't let her get close to serve her." Yue'er said.
"But Miss really trusts Xia'er, otherwise she wouldn't trust Xia'er to help you prepare the medicine. Is your slave right?" Chun'er said.
"I do trust Xia'er, but she keeps talking to that woman on behalf of her cousin, which naturally makes me feel harsh. I drove her to the kitchen just to let her think about what she did wrong," Yue'er said.
"Miss, Xia'er also does it for your own good, but she doesn't know how to be tactful, which is why she made you so angry." Chun'er said.
