Princess and the General

Chapter 16: Change your name, ask for a name

Views:

Aunt Li really wanted Qi Ting to change her name, she was a little unhappy.

She knew that Mrs. Li looked gentle and kind, but in fact she said what she said and did things very neatly.

That's why Qi Zhou chose her to take charge of the affairs of the West Wing.

It is probably useless to argue with this Aunt Li, so she can only turn her eyes to Yufu.

"Miss Yufu, this servant girl grew up with this name. My grandfather and father both have the surname Qi, and they both work as housekeepers and stewards in this mansion. Can you be accommodating?"

Aunt Li was unhappy when she heard this, Lianzhu and the other four couldn't help but pouted.

But for Qi An and the others, they can't say anything about Qi Ting, they can only see how Yufu decides.

She is still young and gentle, but don't be moved by Qi Ting!

Everyone's eyes fell on Yu Fu, but she was not a soft-hearted person, she had her own judgment of right and wrong in her heart.

She looked at Qi Ting sincerely, her big eyes shining brightly.

"Sister Qi, I understand that you are reluctant to bear your own name. But sister Lianzhu and the others have all changed their names. If you are the only one who doesn't change it, it will be too unfair to everyone, and the rules in this house will be messed up. Sister Qi, Do you agree?"

On weekdays, it was Qi Ting who talked about rules and regulations, saying that Yaolan had no rules and was a wild girl.

Today she herself was restrained by Yufu with the word "rules", and she was speechless at the moment.

After Yufu finished speaking, he turned to Aunt Li and said, "Aunt Li, for the sake of fairness, I should have asked you to change Yaolan's name too. But her name was given by the elders, and it is my master. Changing it would be disrespectful to Master and the old man..."

She bit her pink lips slightly, looked at Lianzhu and the others, and felt a little bit self-blame, feeling that she had caused some small injustice.

Seeing her appearance, Aunt Li was about to comfort her, but Lianzhu and the others spoke first.

"Miss, don't say that, it's fair. Sister Yaolan has been with her since she was a child, so why change her name after she is used to it? We changed the name to make it a pair, so that the master can call it smoothly. Everyone said, right? ?”

Lianbi quickly agreed, even Yinling and Yinxue agreed.

Aunt Li looked at the four maids she had selected, and couldn't help but nodded in admiration, feeling that her vision was really good.

These four servant girls are more sensible than the other.

It's just this Qi Ting...

Aunt Li didn't want to talk nonsense with her anymore, and said directly: "Then from today, Qi Ting will change her name to Yaohong. This name is nice and matches Yaolan's."

"Sister Yaohong."

Lianzhu and the others quickly called out, and nodded to her in salute.

Qi Ting's complexion looked like she swallowed a fly, she couldn't swallow it, and couldn't spit it out...

With these maidservants as companions, Yufu was obviously very happy, and had endless conversations with them all day long.

Gu Xiang, Gu Yi and the others made such a fuss that they couldn't play together often, they were very displeased, and even said that they wanted Lianzhu and the others to serve in their courtyard, deliberately scaring Yu Fuwan.

Although Yu Fu is young, she is not so easily intimidated.

"Sister Lianzhu is the best at combing hair. Look at the flower buds she combed for me. How beautiful! What do you want sister Lianzhu to do? You also want to comb the flower buds?"

Yu Futong's childish words made Lianzhu and the others giggle, and Gu Yi was choked by her so that she couldn't speak.

However, Qi Ting heard some news that moved her heart from this joke.

So the next time the young masters from the mansion came, she would go to serve tea and pour water, doing her best, hoping that they would say that she was going to serve her.

Ever since Lian Zhu and the others came, Yu Fu rarely used Qi Ting.

The reason is simple, Lianzhu can comb her hair better than Lianzhu, she can make snacks than Lianbi, Yinling can joke better than her, Yinxue is more careful than her...

They have been trained by the mansion since they were young. Although the mansion has not used maids for more than ten years, they dare not forget their own duties.

Only Qi Ting was spoiled, she couldn't handle a needle or a thread, she was useless.

She is also happy to be free, and spends all day in the west chamber directing this and that, she is as lazy as a young lady, and only when the young masters come, she will be attentive.

After two or three times, everyone knew what she was thinking.

"Yaohong, go down, you don't have to wait here anymore."

Gu Shubai came to drink tea one day, and seeing Qi Ting dangling in front of her, with a strong fragrance on her body, he felt very uncomfortable.

He was used to training in the army, and he didn't like the smell of powder on women, let alone low-quality powder.

Qi Ting didn't have any eyesight at all, and even went forward to pour tea for Gu Shubai.

"They have just come up and don't know how to serve them yet, the eldest son should let the slaves serve them."

The action of pouring tea was too close to him, his beautiful sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, and he covered the tip of his nose with his hand.

Yu Fu saw the problem, and hurriedly said: "Sister Yaohong, brother 5 and brother 6 left their fans here yesterday, you go and give them back the fans!"

Qi Ting straightened up unwillingly.

Gu Xiang and Gu Yi would come to the West Wing every day, if they didn't come now, they would naturally come later.

Anyway, this fan is not in a hurry, so wait for them to come and take it away

Bai delayed her chance to perform in front of the eldest son.

Even though she thought so, she didn't dare to show it in front of Gu Shubai, so she could only respectfully agree, and then walked towards Gu Xiang and Gu Yi's yard with her fan.

Seeing her leave, Yu Fu sticks out her tongue at Gu Shubai mischievously.

The latter tapped lightly on her head.

"You, you are really a ghost spirit!"

Everyone loves Ghost, not only carefully noticed his discomfort, but also resolved the matter by making everyone feel comfortable.

Yu Fu suddenly thought of something, and asked Gu Shubai, "Why do we all have two-syllable names from Big Brother to Fourth Brother. But Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother have the same name?"

Gu Shubai lowered his eyebrows and smiled slightly, his eyes as bright as stars shone teasingly.

He intends to tease Yufu.

"Guess why?"

Yufu stretched out her hand, because the weather was getting hotter, she was only wearing a crimson single shirt, embroidered with golden oranges and green leaves, which made her more lively and lovely.

She rested her chin in one hand, revealing a small section of her white wrist, which contrasted nicely with her pink face.

"I guess... I guess, it's because the general has too many sons, and it's troublesome to name them, so I just pick one at the end!"
