Xiaohua went back to the small courtyard on the next day, and the people's dinner has been carried over by a special person. She used it herself, and prepared to take some hot water to wash and sleep.
When she went to the small kitchen, Mrs. Wang, who was burning the fire, squinted her eyes as soon as she saw her, "Little flower girl, is it worth it?"
"Yes, Granny Wang."
Madam Wang gave her a small tumbler, "Come, sit here and talk to the old lady."
Xiaohua put down the pot in her hand and sat down beside Mrs Wang.
Madam Wang pounded the flames in the stove, "How is the value today, is there anything you're not used to?"
Xiaohua actually likes this smiling old lady, and no one talks to her these days after coming back. The little girl below is either full of jealousy or secretly scorns her superior position. The 'good sisters' who used to be good together are also estranged, and she too Too lazy to say anything to them. Sitting in the warm kitchen at this time, with a kind old woman sitting next to her, she couldn't help but talk more.
"There's nothing I'm not used to, just follow a few sisters to learn how to serve the young master. In fact, it's quite leisurely. Sitting in the tea room in the afternoon, it's time to order."
Madam Wang smiled and didn't say anything else, but chatted with Xiaohua slowly about the dispositions and taboos of some masters in the mansion, and mentioned that she had several old sisters in the past, who were smart and competent, and later got the master's righteous eyes. Assigned to stewards. Later, I gave birth to a baby, and I came back to work as an errand. Now I'm a bitch.
Xiaohua listened silently, without speaking, but her eyes flashed.
After Mrs. Wang spoke, she remembered that Xiaohua was here to fetch water.
"Look at my old woman. I don't have a good memory when I'm old. You came to fetch water. I dragged you and nagged for a long time."
"It's alright, Granny Wang, I don't have much to do when I pay."
"Okay, okay, I know you're comforting my old lady, so hurry up and take a rest. I have to get up early for work tomorrow."
Xiaohua drank water, washed briefly, and then lay down. Biyuan hasn't come back yet. However, Biyuan always came back very late, and Xiaohua was not surprised.
In fact, she understood what Mrs. Wang said, but she just wanted to show her another way.
Yes, it's better than arguing with others. She was so stupid in her last life that she couldn't think of going that way.
Close your eyes and calm down. She doesn't ask for anything now, she just asks to be released when she is old.
As for the future, let's talk about it later.
***
This is how Xiaohua started the life of a first-class maid. It is said that the big maid actually does the work of the little maid most of the time.
It's just that she doesn't push or refuse, she's honest and steady, she's diligent in her hands and feet, she doesn't speak out, and the most important thing is that she never leans on the young master's side.
Gradually, the other three maids were relieved of her, and turned a blind eye to her occasional slack.
Some of the following little maids gradually saw Xiaohua's behavior and behavior, and on the surface, no one ridiculed her anymore, just thought she was an elm head and didn't know how to make progress. But she didn't pick things up in front of her, just pretended she was a big maid and was actually a transparent person.
Xiaohua can't be like this, every day it is worth it, and it is worth it. Three or five dodged from time to time, and the days were quite leisurely.
This world is worth it, Xiaohua ran to the small kitchen again to talk to Mrs. Wang.
One is old and no one takes care of him, and the other doesn't want to get into trouble and is too lazy to mess with others, so they just get together and get along well.
Xiaohua sat in her old seat and took out a packet of snacks from her arms.
"Mother Wang, I'm going to the big kitchen today. The kitchen lady gave it to me. I brought some for you to taste."
The big maid has the advantages of being a big maid, just relying on her big maid's clothes and the people around the fourth young master is enough for those wives in the big kitchen to compliment each other. Xiaohua is not a pedantic person either. When others give her sweet talk, she will continue, and then take it back to eat by herself, or share it with Mrs. Wang.
"You girl, eat a cake, and remember to bring it to my old lady. I know that my old lady has bad teeth and likes these soft ones." Mrs. Wang smiled like a chrysanthemum. She knew Xiaohua's temperament in her heart, but she didn't push it away.
Xiaohua opened the veil, and the old man and the young man ate the cakes.
"Xiaohua, how's the past two days? The old lady heard a lot of little girls talking about a big fight between Biyuan and Cuilan, and the two of them almost tore their faces, so they didn't involve you."
Xiaohua shook her head and smiled slyly.
"Before they quarreled, I saw something was wrong and ran away, and when they finished quarreling, I went back."
Madam Wang calmed down and said with a smile: "You girl is really a ghost. It's the right thing to do. The three of them are family children. Since you don't have the heart, there is no need to go in and mix it up. Just stay away."
After getting acquainted with Xiaohua, Mrs. Wang also knew that she did not have the desire to make progress, but that the tree wanted to stop and the wind kept going, and this girl was in such a sensitive position.
Madam Wang is old and has no descendants. On weekdays, only Xiaohua is the only girl who talks to her, so she treats Xiaohua as her granddaughter, and she will inevitably remember it in her heart. In the past, she used to ignore things without listening or watching, but now that she was worried, she would prick up her old ears to listen.
In this small courtyard, there are many maids and old women who come and go, and they will inevitably speak out. Everyone knows that Mrs. Wang is an old woman who is lonely and widowed. Less gossip.
Madam Wang talked and laughed a few more times with Xiaohua, and then lowered her voice and whispered in her ear: "Fourth young lady over in the main room threw the bowl a few times, I guess she can't hold her breath anymore."
Xiaohua heard that she quietly squeezed Madam Wang's hand, meaning she knew.
It was about this time in my last life that Mr. Qiao couldn't sit still. He just didn't know if the events of the previous life would be repeated in this life. But Xiaohua thought that she had always kept a low profile and did not offend anyone, it should not involve herself.
After chatting a few more words, the old and the young began to eat cakes happily, and the maid and old lady who passed by the small kitchen were all contemptuous of the two.
In fact, Xiaohua is the one who despises the most. Now in the entire Jinxiu Academy, who doesn't know that she is a worthless person who occupies the position of the big maid but never does 'business'.
The strangest thing is that there are quite a few little girls who are trapped in her finding the other three big girls to tell Xiao Hua Hei Zhuang. Those few who are usually unreasonable and like to show the prestige of the big girls are actually sitting on the sidelines and saying nothing. If you don't give up on speaking, people will scold you.
It was only later that everyone realized that now the three big maids are fighting fiercely, and there is a big maid who is not involved in anything and does not get in the way to occupy a seat, but it is not as they intended. Listening to your instigation to change up, don't you add another opponent to yourself? Others only do this when their head is squeezed by the door!
Gradually, no one dared to provoke Xiaohua anymore. Knowing that she was guarded by the other three big maids, Xiaohua's life was even more like a duck to water.
****
The April day is already a little warm.
Everyone took off their jackets and put on their jackets. The flowers in the Jinxiu Courtyard were in full bloom. The Fourth Young Master loves flowers, so many flowers and plants are planted in Jinxiu Courtyard, and gardeners come to take care of them every day.
On this day, Xiaohua led a few second-class girls to set up a meal, and there was a little girl to inform that the maid Chuntao next to the fourth young lady was coming.
The fourth young master just changed his clothes and came out of the back room. He was disgusted with Qiao Shi, but Qiao Shi has been quiet these days, so he didn't want to slap her face in front of the servants and let Chun Tao come in.
Chuntao walked in with a tray in her hand, and on the tray was a small white porcelain cup.
"Master, the young lady said that you were tired of studying, so I cooked a bowl of soup with my own hands and sent the servants to bring it to you."
Chuntao is Qiao's dowry maid, short and round, with a small nose and small eyes. Qiao's own appearance is not good, and the girls around her are also unattractive.
Xiaohua knew Chuntao. She was a great help to the Qiao family in her past life. She was not very good-looking, but her wrist and scheming were not bad. By the time Xiaohua died, Chuntao was already the steward mother of Jinxiu Institute.
Is Mr. Qiao showing affection to him
Immediately thinking of Qiao's stupid look like a pig, the fourth young master immediately lost his appetite.
But since people have come in, they must not be too ugly.
The fourth young master signaled the maid to take the soup, and let Chuntao go down. It happened that Xiaohua was closest to Chuntao, so she took the small cup over.
When he was about to put it on the table, the Fourth Young Master suddenly said, "This soup will be given to you."
At this time, there were several maids in the room, and the fourth young master didn't know who the 'you' was talking about. But it certainly couldn't be for the second-class maids, so there were only four big maids left.
Xiaohua is also one of the big maids.
Xiao Hua's body trembled, her hands were faster than her brain, she put the small cup on the table and backed away.
Bi Yuan happened to be by her side, and she put her hand on top of her.
"Thank you for your reward, young master." The voice was gentle, sweet and a little greasy.
Because Cuilan and Liuye were far apart, they could only look at the ocean and sigh, but their eyes poked at Biyuan as if they had poisonous hooks.
In fact, the fourth young master of this bowl of soup originally saw Xiaohua bring it, and he said that he would give it to her, but when Xiaohua put down Biyuan and misunderstood, he didn't explain anything.
After all, this world is different from the previous world, because Xiaohua never knew how to restrain herself at this time in her previous life. By being able to serve the Fourth Young Master personally, she often made fun of it in front of the Fourth Young Master.
The fourth young master really likes this little girl with a sweet mouth and a delicate appearance. At the beginning, Mrs. Qiao also sent soup tonic, but when he saw Xiaohua's thin body, he gave it to her directly.
