The lady is really a little weird today. [Ran^Wen^Bookstore][]www. lwxs520. com
The quail-like little maid thought secretly as she watched her mistress being spared after saying only one sentence.
After teaching the little maid a lesson, the scheming girl Li Shu was about to return to the car, but when she turned around, she seemed to have just seen Chen who was setting up a stall, so she turned around and walked to the stall. Then, a happy and well-behaved smile appeared on her pretty face, and she called out politely:
"Aunt, it's really you. I thought I was seeing things."
Chen looked at such a beautiful, sensible, filial, and housekeeping little girl standing in front of her and calling her aunt. She didn't react for a moment. Is this calling me? Shu'er, this name is a little familiar.
"Aunt, have you forgotten Shu'er? When Shu'er was a child, she went to your house to play with her brother Ping'an. Your aunt even gave Shu'er a basket of fruit snacks, which were so delicious." At this moment, Li Shu was like a girl next door, and she said in a coquettish voice.
"Oh, you are Li Shu from Shanghe Village."
Chen then remembered that this was the sweet and obedient little girl who rode the little red horse to the old house to play with Zhuer when she was a child.
She was incredibly beautiful when she was a child, and she became even more beautiful when she grew up.
"Aunt, why do you seem to be worried? Can you talk to Shu'er about it?"
Li Shu chatted with Chen for a while, she was very sweet, praising and flattering, coaxing Chen to no end. When the chat was in full swing, Li Shu saw that Chen seemed to be a little worried, so she mentioned it casually.
Chen was already in the mood for chatting. When she heard Li Shu's question, she casually expressed her concerns, "My son Ping An went to Yingtian to take the exam. It's been more than half a month. I wonder if he has good food and accommodation there?"
"Don't worry, brother Ping'an has been smart since he was young. He will definitely be able to take care of himself. Maybe he can even pass the imperial examination and help me pass the exam."
Li Shu's words made Chen unable to close her mouth. Every word of this sentence touched the most comfortable part of Chen's heart.
"He has no chance of becoming a judge. It would be fine if he could just come back to me in one piece." Chen said while shaking her hands, but her face was full of a smile of pride for her son.
"Haha, maybe Brother Ping'an will really pass the imperial examination for Auntie." Li Shu smiled sweetly, her watery eyes were so bright.
Then Li Shu chatted with Chen for a while, and saw from afar that the little maid Huaer who bought candied haws from Baozi had also returned, so Li Shu said goodbye to Chen.
"Aunt, my maid is back, I have to say goodbye. I still have to burn incense and pray for my father and brother." Li Shu stood up and said goodbye to Chen.
Chen heard that Li Shu was going to burn incense and pray for her family, so she didn't stop her. However, she gave half of the homemade cakes she brought with her for lunch to the little maid Quail who was following Li Shu closely, so that Li Shu could eat them on the way.
"Thank you, auntie. I loved the food you cooked when I was a child." Li Shu thanked Chen sweetly, asked the maid to get a bag of cakes from the carriage as a return gift, and then got on the carriage.
Her skirt fluttered in the wind, light and graceful, and her figure swayed as she disappeared into the carriage.
Chen looked at Li Shu who got on the carriage and felt that this girl was not only beautiful, but also well-spoken, well-educated, kind and filial, and had elegant and pretty manners. In short, she was very good, better than any other girl she had ever seen.
After entering the carriage, Li Shu seemed like a different person, and the little maid Quail was the most qualified to speak on this point.
The little maidservant, Quail, had just followed her mistress into the carriage and had just lowered the door curtain. Before she could react, her vision went dark and she was slapped in the face by her mistress.
When he looked up, he saw the young lady waving her hands and looking at him.
"What are you standing there for? Didn't you see how dirty the old lady who fell just now was?" Li Shu shook her hands and scolded coldly.
"Oh, I'm sorry, young lady." The quail-like little maid quickly put aside the half bag of pastries sent by Chen, and then took out a handkerchief and handed it to the young lady.
Li Shu accepted the handkerchief and wiped her hands with disgust, then asked the maid to pour some clean water to wash her hands. After wiping her hands, she casually threw the handkerchief on the half package of cakes. She casually ordered, "You will eat it later."
"Ah? Oh." The little maidservant Quail was a little surprised, but when her mistress glared at her, she quickly responded with an "oh".
"Do you know why I brought you here?" Li Shu played with the accessories around her waist with her slender hands and said casually to the little maid named Quail.
The little maidservant Quail was puzzled and raised her face with the handprints on it.
"Because you are a quiet person." Li Shu glanced at the little maid Quail and said lightly.
A while after Li Shu got on the carriage, her maid Huaer came over breathlessly. She got on the carriage and pouted, saying, "The guy selling candied haws is so weird. People asked him to buy something, but he kept walking forward..."
After the little maid Baozi got on the carriage, the driver raised the whip again and the carriage slowly moved forward among the crowd.
Not long after Li Shu's carriage left, several aunts and old maids from other villages came to Chen's bamboo weaving stall to buy bamboo weavings, and while buying bamboo weavings, they chatted gossipingly with each other.
"Oh, the one who just got on the carriage must be the daughter of the Li family in Shanghe Village. She is really pretty. I heard that the Li family is not ordinary. A little maid can earn more in a year than we can earn in three years by working in the fields."
"Also, I heard that this girl has been well-behaved and sensible since she was young. Just now I saw her helping Grandma Li from Bianjia Village up."
"How well-educated and well-mannered she is. I heard that she hasn't even talked about her in-laws yet. If I could marry her home as my daughter-in-law, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
"Forget it, your Er Gouzi is not worthy of her."
A few aunts and old women were chatting for a long time while choosing bamboo weavings in front of the stall. Then they paid the money, bought one or two bamboo weavings each, and left while chatting and laughing.
The speaker may not have intended it, but the listener took it to heart. Some ideas suddenly took root in Chen's heart and then grew vigorously.
From an alley not far away, an old lady walked out. There was traces of dust on her clothes. She was leaning on a cane and holding a piece of meat in her hand. She passed by several aunts and maids carrying bamboo weavings.
After a while, several aunties and old women carrying bamboo weavings came out of the alley with their money bags in their hands and smiling happily, and then went their separate ways and returned to their own homes. No one knew each other in the first place...
There was a temple in Kaoshan Town. A young lady burned incense and gave a few taels of silver. Unable to resist the enthusiasm of the temple priest, she drew a fortune stick.
Good luck
