Yu Qingluo's ears were not as sensitive as Nan Nan's. Seeing him stop, she paused in surprise.
But then, he slowed down his steps and slowly got closer.
After a while, a strange female voice came from inside the house, "Little miss, you should drink this soup while it's hot. This is what the clan elder asked his slave to cook. The clan elder really loves the little miss, don't let it down." What a thoughtful thought from the clan elder."
"Who are you? Where is Xiaoliang?" Meng Luoyu's confused voice sounded.
"Slave Si'er is a maid in the clan elder's yard. Xiaoliang went to get some newly made clothes for the young lady. She will be back in a moment." The woman named Si'er had a sweet voice and a warm smile. , she put the tray in her hand on the table, filled a small bowl with half a bowl, brought it to Meng Luoyu, and said with a smile, "Little miss, try it, if you don't like the taste, I will cook it again." bowl."
"No need." Meng Luoyu put her palm against the edge of the bowl and tried it, shook her head and said, "It's still a little hot. I'll drink it later."
After she said that, she walked to the dressing table, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and tried to comb her hair by herself.
Aunt Qing and Nannan came over soon, and she wanted to tidy up. It's just that Meng Luoyu is not good at combing her hair into a bun. Aunt Qin used to do it for her, and later Aunt Qing did it for herself. Although Aunt Qing's bun was very strange, it looked very neat.
She tried to comb her hair the way Aunt Qing did, but it didn't feel right no matter how hard she tried.
Si'er looked aside for a while, then stepped forward with a smile and said, "Little miss, my servant will come and help you."
Meng Luoyu frowned. She was very wary. She had never seen this fourth son before and was not familiar with him. She did not dare to let her get too close.
But Xiaoliang, the maid whom grandpa provoked for him last night, was not here. It was getting late now, and Aunt Qing and Nannan would be coming over later. If Aunt Qing saw her with unkempt hair, she might think that she was not in the house. Welcome to see me, I was bullied.
In fact, she talked a lot with her father last night. She likes her father very much, and her grandfather is also very good to her. She is already very satisfied with this situation and this warm family.
Meng Luoyu always thought a lot. After pondering for a moment, she looked at the kind Si'er again, nodded, and said softly, "Just a simple comb."
Si'er nodded and looked at the dressing box. There were all kinds of silk flower beaded hairpins in it. They were all sent by the clan elders in just one day. They were very exquisite.
Si'er picked a silk flower and said with a smile, "Little miss, what do you think of this? This color matches the clothes the little miss is wearing today. It is very pink and cute. The little miss's skin is very white, and this silk flower is perfect for wearing The skin on the head looks even fairer.”
Meng Luoyu pursed her lips and nodded. In fact, her skin was not white. Years of malnutrition had caused her skin to turn sallow.
It's much better now, and it's all thanks to Aunt Qing. Aunt Qing has many good things, many of which are used on her body.
After coming back yesterday, her grandfather told her that Aunt Qing was the ghost doctor who was as famous as Qiongshan Doctor. She was so shocked at the time that she never associated the name Ghost Doctor with Aunt Qing. The legendary figure she had always been curious about actually spent such a long time with her. Now that she knows, she realizes that the good things Aunt Qing gave her are all priceless and very precious.
"Little miss, this pearl hairpin is also very beautiful. It looks best when inserted in the hair." Si'er's voice sounded again, and he took a hairpin inlaid with white pearls from the dressing box. The hairpin was indeed very beautiful. Not complicated, but very sophisticated.
Yu Qingluo and Nan Nan looked outside for a long time and couldn't help but raise their eyebrows.
This fourth son seemed to be very good at flattering, but he didn't have good taste. The silk flowers and hairpins of that color were placed together on Xiaoyu's hair, which looked very abrupt and nondescript.
Yu Qingluo looked at Nannan strangely, and moved her lips slightly, "Are you stopping to hear how Xiaoyu was treated by the maids when she was at the house?"
Nannan shook his head and pointed at the little wolf in the cage.
The little wolf seemed a little anxious, moving around in the cage, staring sharply at the fourth child in the room.
Yu Qingluo narrowed her eyes suddenly. Animals have a natural sense of danger. This wolf cub is usually fine, but now it has become like this. It seems that this fourth child is not just a flatterer.
Is there anything she can't do
Yu Qingluo's eyes fell on the bowl of soup. Before she could figure out the reason, she suddenly saw Si'er standing behind Meng Luoyu suddenly raising the bead hairpin in his hand, aiming at Meng Luoyu's neck and jerking Take root.
Yu Qingluo's pupils shrank, and the silver needle in his hand was already drawn out.
It's just that Nannan was faster than her. The little guy held the cage under his arm with one hand, tiptoed, and quickly entered the house. With the other hand, he suddenly grabbed Si'er's hand holding a pearl hairpin. With his hands and feet, he kicked Si'er out.
"Ah..." Si'er screamed, which stung Yu Qingluo's eardrums and almost burst them.
Immediately afterwards there was a sound of "ping ping ping pong". Si'er's steps were unsteady and she bumped into the small round table at the back, knocking the soup and water on the table to the ground. All the bowl of soup poured onto her. body.
When the maids and wives outside the door heard such a loud noise, they looked at each other and rushed in, "Little miss, what happened?"
Meng Luoyu stood up in surprise and saw Nannan and Yu Qingluo. She stood beside them and asked, "Aunt Qing, what's wrong?"
"She wants to harm you." Nan Nan said angrily, pointing at Si'er who was sitting on the ground in a miserable state.
Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Si'er, who gasped and finally suppressed the burning sensation of the soup pouring on his body.
Seeing the sudden appearance of two people, one large and one small, her eyes flashed and she quickly guessed their identities.
But the next moment, she suddenly fell to the ground and started crying, "What are you doing? Miss, this slave is just combing your hair. Why, how could it end up harming you?"
Nan Nan snorted coldly, "I can see clearly that you just took the pearl hairpin and wanted to stab Sister Yu."
"I didn't." Si'er knelt on the ground, the soup on his head was still dripping down, and he looked very pitiful. "Little miss, I just gave you a hairpin. This, this young master has misunderstood. I have no intention of harming the little miss. Really, I am wronged."
"What's going on?" At this moment, a deep voice suddenly came from outside the door.
