Chapter 6: One plan fails and another one comes up
The more Qianqian thought about it, the angrier she became. The angrier she became, the more helpless she felt. For a moment, she thought that she must not marry Xiao Yuanchang, who was so uneducated and inhumane. She also asked the system where the person was and whether he had met up with the heroine Shengli. She begged the system not to let him out!!!
As a result, the system told her that after the male protagonist left her place, he looked gloomy, and when he passed by the small garden outside and saw a few leaves on the roadside, he caught a girl sweeping the floor nearby and made indirect accusations, saying something like "He is really useless and not good-looking, and the Xiao family took him in for nothing."
It is true that he was standing in front of the maid, but he was facing the direction of Qianqian's yard when he spoke. Coupled with the specific content, wow, the people standing in twos and threes listening intently must have known everything.
Well, originally, it was because Xiao Yuanchang somehow entered the cousin's yard. The cousin looked... Most of the servants didn't know her face very well, but they heard that she was delicate and weak, with a pretty face and a nice figure. Tsk, this was big news. Those servants had to ask for their masters, and that's why there were actually three or four people slacking off outside this remote yard.
To be honest, the little maid who was the target of the anger was really wronged. She was only eleven or twelve years old, a house girl. Her father was a coachman and her mother was a gatekeeper. She was too young to work in a courtyard. She had two older sisters, one worked in the lady's courtyard and the other in the old woman's courtyard. They were both low-ranking maids and had no respect.
She originally had the opportunity to enter one of the courtyards, but for some reason the family was so slow-witted that they were worried about her, so they arranged for her to be a maid in the big garden.
Originally, she was doing a good job sweeping the big garden in front today, but the housekeeper asked her to come to this remote little garden and told her to be smart and tell her anything she saw or heard.
The little maid didn't know what to see or hear, and the housekeeper didn't say much. She just told her to do it. When she came over, she saw a lot of people, but no one was working. She was honest and didn't want to just stand there. Seeing a lot of leaves on the road, she picked up a broom and started sweeping.
I was sweeping the floor and didn't know what happened, I saw the young master just walking straight towards me, and then he blurted out a few words in a cold tone. There was no one else here, so he could only be talking to her, but I was still sweeping the floor and I wasn't being lazy. The housekeeper praised me for being diligent and careful yesterday.
The little maid didn't dare to refute or say a word. She just stood there holding the broom, lowering her head and crying.
Xiao Yuanchang was the same. He had been obviously impatient in the past few days. He heard the news about Yin Yin and his cousin. For Young Master Xiao, things were extremely unlucky. The person over there had also fainted. He couldn't vent his anger on anyone. It was a coincidence that he went outside. After he finished speaking, he saw a few people peeking around and he felt embarrassed for a moment.
Fortunately, his eldest maid was very good at speaking out, and she continued his words and scolded the little maid who was sweeping the floor: "Why are you still standing there? Are you waiting for the young master to make way for you? Why don't you get out of the way!"
The little maidservant walked away immediately, and then Young Master Xiao coughed lightly and walked away looking like a handsome young man again.
The servants who were trying to gather information nearby saw the man walking away, so they all went back to tell their own masters. I believe that within a day, everyone in the mansion would know that the new cousin had offended the eldest young master somehow.
Only this little maid wiped her tears and diligently swept the floor until there was not a single fallen leaf left before going back.
But when she returned, the housekeeper had already heard the whole story from other places. She originally took in this little maid because she was obedient and sensible. Although she was not good at making trouble, she was honest. In this compound, being honest meant less worry. Besides, having a child in a family was not a lucrative job, so she was happy to go with the flow.
Now that the eldest master has spoken, all I can do is clear my throat: "Ye'er, since the eldest master has said that the small garden is not clean, you should go there to take charge from now on. It just so happens that the old lady has sent a message to find a few maids to serve the cousin. This is all your luck. Just pack up and go over there, ah!"
The little maid, Ye'er, was confused for a moment, but did not dare to say anything. She packed up nervously and went to Lu Qianqian's yard. When she arrived at the door, she did not dare to go in. She looked around at the door several times, but was seen by Nanny Li, who went out to ask and found out that it was the master's family who had sent someone.
Nanny Li looked at the small and timid maid and really didn't know what to say. However, they were all under someone's roof and they really couldn't be too busy, so they just let it be.
So he went into the house to see if Qianqian was awake. Qianqian naturally listened to the system gossip, and sat up by herself after knowing that someone had arrived. After hearing all this, she was really numb. This is the male protagonist. She couldn't even get angry. Okay, why are you angry with such a thing?
Qianqian no longer acted pretentiously and called people in. Wow, they were so pitiful and cute, and looked so honest. Besides, they were family-born children, which was good. She was just worried that she knew nothing about the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Also, thinking that the person was implicated by him and had suffered an unprovoked disaster, he felt more pity for her for no reason and asked Nanny Li to give her a gift. Nanny Li was not stingy and gave the maid a pair of small lilac earrings and two cents of silver, and told her to serve well in the future.
The little maid took it with both hands, her eyes shining. These earrings were so pretty. Although she probably couldn't use them now as she was still young, they were really pretty.
My cousin is so pretty, prettier than all the ladies in this mansion, and she is also very amiable. Nanny Li looks at her very gently and gives her a reward as soon as she enters the house. Mother, maybe she is really lucky and has got a good job.
After thanking her, the little maid was taken out by Li Mama. She was supposed to fix herself for a while, then rest and adapt, but she refused to do anything and just picked up the broom and started working. This, okay! It seems that she is diligent. Although Li Mama didn't show it on her face, she was still a little satisfied in her heart and started to get busy again.
Qianqian had calmed down inside and continued to talk to System 8: "What's up, has Xiao Yuanchang arrived yet?"
The system replied to her, which was a bit hard to describe: "Xiao Yuanchang came back halfway!"
"Gah, what's going on?"
"I felt that I couldn't rush over there so quickly, so I came back to ask his mother for help!"
Qianqian was silent. It was really hard to judge. Was this really the male protagonist? Seriously? She was definitely not asked to travel through time to save the world. She really thought that if the male protagonist was like this, the world might as well be over...
The system spoke again after a while: "Host, one good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
Qianqian was speechless. She had already taken care of everything, yet she was still doing this: “…Good news first!”
System: "The good news is that Xiao Yuanchang will not come to disturb you these days!"
Qianqian thought that he had a good conscience: "What's the bad news?"
System: "His mother decided to hold a summer banquet in a few days, inviting young men and women in Beijing, of course mainly the heroine. At the banquet, let Xiao Yuanchang show his closeness to you, make the heroine jealous, and then take the initiative to make peace."
Qianqian was speechless. Did they really have nothing to do? Was she the only sheep in the world that could be fleeced?
