"Ama!" It was already the middle of the moon, Xiao Qi tried his best to stare at the red eyes, after all, he couldn't resist the call of Zhou Gong, and after a glutinous call, the fourth master leaned crookedly on the back of the chair and fell asleep. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Looking at Xiao Qi's immature little face, frowning even when he fell asleep, the fourth master sighed and called Su Peisheng, who had been waiting at the door, "Let Xiao Qi sleep here today, you let the bed be cleaned up, and send a letter to the inner courtyard as well, so as not to worry about the side Fujin." ”
After speaking, the fourth master personally hugged Xiao Qi and walked into the inner room.
Xiao Qi, who was suddenly hugged off the chair and fell asleep in a daze, instinctively opened his eyes, and at the moment when he saw the cold side face of the fourth master, he stretched out his soft little hand, grabbed the placket of the fourth master's clothes, smiled sweetly, and then fell asleep with peace of mind again.
――――――
The next day, Erfu, who slept peacefully all night, knew from Yaoqin's mouth that Xiao Qi ran to the study in the front yard to find the fourth master last night, although Xiao Qi's behavior was a little unruly, but she was reluctant to blame Xiao Qi, she knew that Xiao Qi was distressed by her mother, she was also a little uneasy, uneasy Xiao Qi would tell the fourth master what she said that night, until Su Peisheng sent Xiao Qi back to the West Courtyard, and the fourth master never came to her to settle the account, she was a little relieved, but she was also faintly disappointed.
After washing, Erfu saw Su Peisheng who sent Xiao Qi back in the hall.
She squinted her eyes and shrank beside Su Peisheng, Xiao Qi, who secretly picked her fingers, smiled a few words, and then asked Yaoqin to give a purse reward, and sent Su Peisheng out of the upper room, she got up and came to Xiao Qi's side, took Xiao Qi's slightly cool little hand, and walked straight to the east room.
"Eniang!" Xiao Qi raised his head timidly, looked at Erfu who didn't say a word, and called.
Before Xiao Qi entered the door, Xiao Shengzi's porridge and meat buns had already been served, Erfu raised his hand and touched Xiao Qi's slightly hot head, and while serving hot porridge for Xiao Qi with his own hands, he nagged with pity: "Obediently drink the medicine after eating, you are getting more and more bold, you dare to run to the front yard in the middle of the night, and you are not afraid of being arrested as a bad person by those rough women on patrol." ”
"Eniang, aren't you angry with Xiao Qi?" Xiao Qi held the hot white fungus lily porridge, looked at Erfu with red eyes, and asked timidly, she knew that Eniang wanted to leave Amma, and she was reluctant to leave Eniang, so she promised to leave with Eniang, but she was also reluctant to leave Amma, so she thought that Ama coaxed Eniang, maybe so that she could stay by Ama and Eniang's side all the time, and she didn't have to be forced to make difficult choice questions.
Of course, she didn't tell Ama the news that E-Niang was leaving.
She knew that E-Niang's idea was deviant, if Ama could understand E-Niang, it would be fine, otherwise she was afraid that it would cause the opposite effect, but even so, she still had a feeling of betraying E-Niang, when she and Su Peisheng returned to the West Courtyard from the front yard, along the way, she was thinking about what kind of reaction E-Niang would have, the more she thought about it, the more worried she became, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt empty-hearted......
How can a mother be willing to blame her child!
Erfu rubbed Xiao Qi's head with pity, and shook her head, "How can E-niang blame Xiao Qi, it's just that you don't know how to feel sorry for yourself, and you don't know how to add clothes when you run out at night, and now your head is dizzy, your nose is uncomfortable, and your throat hurts...... "As she spoke, she pushed the Qinghe tea that Yaoqin had boiled in the morning to Xiao Qi's hand, so that Xiao Qi could smell the unique bitter taste of Qingre tea more clearly, and counted Xiao Qi with a little joking and lowered his head to admit his mistake.
Xiao Qi was nagging by Erfu like this, ate a sweet and warm breakfast, and drank the bitter Qinghe tea, thinking of beating the spirit and talking to Erfu more, and the tranquilizer in the Qinghot tea came into play, and she yawned big before she finished speaking.
"Go to bed and get well early. Erfu twisted the handkerchief and wiped the medicine stains on the corner of Xiao Qi's mouth, urging Xiao Qi to go into the inner room to rest, she turned around and returned to the outer room, picked up a book that I didn't know who wrote it and lay crookedly on the Luohan bed.
For others, grounding can be regarded as a punishment, but for Erfu, who has completely wanted to open, this is just a magnification of the fake, she doesn't have to get up early to say goodbye to others, she doesn't need to look at the faces of those who hate women, and she doesn't need to listen to those jealous words, she doesn't know how happy she is!
If the fourth master didn't seal off her yard and let her not cut off contact with Bai Jiao, then she would be even happier.
As for the four female books that she copied or something, she didn't know how much she had written before when she used to practice calligraphy, so she could just let Yaoqin pick some from the waste paper she had written, and she could make it up more than a dozen times.
Staying in the courtyard, there was nothing to do, and after reading the notebook for a while, Erfu, who was very bored, looked at a few slightly damaged notebooks at hand, and led them to the courtyard.
"Call all the people who are on duty in the yard!" Erph wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at the stacked warehouse, reached out and wiped the dusty shelves, stroked his forehead a little helplessly, and whispered to the girl who was also stunned.
She went to Shengjing, don't look at the time of leaving, but the palace maids who stayed in the house were a lot of slack, the treasury was full of dust, and there were a lot of good things, if she hadn't been looking at the things in the private treasury for silver recently, and flipped through the file booklets, then she didn't know when she would find out!
Although she is not a miser, she is definitely not willing to lose things for no reason.
In a short time, Ya'er gathered all the palace maids and eunuchs who were on errands and not in the west courtyard into the courtyard.
Erfu looked at the small sandwich in the warehouse, which was not very spacious, turned his head to look at Yaoqin, and said in a low voice: "You are steady, careful, and literate, so you can stay at the door of the warehouse to register and make a book." ”
"Slave and maid obey!" Yaoqin spoke, then sat down on the table at the door of the storeroom, and began to study the ink.
There are a lot of valuables in the warehouse, in addition to large furnishings, fabrics, etc., there are also a lot of outdated gold and silver jewelry, The Chinese New Year flattered gold and silver beads and other odd things, Erfu didn't want to lose these small bits and pieces without counting them, so in addition to letting Yaoqin register at the door, she also ordered Ya'er to lead two light little palace maids, Qi Qi changed the dark and dirt-resistant narrow-sleeved slim flag to tidy up, and then handed it over to Yaoqin guarding the door to register and make a book, and then handed it over to a few little palace maids led by Qingdai to wipe it, and finally placed it on a wooden platform in the corner of the courtyard.
Let's be a villain first, and then a gentleman.
Erfu thought that tidying up the warehouse was a chore, although she now seemed to be a thief-proof to arrange layers of checkpoints, but in private, she had already found the little son in the small kitchen, and ordered him to take advantage of this idle time, hurry to the big kitchen to buy some chicken, duck and fish to prepare, and add food to these hard-working servants at night.
"Master, the sun outside is getting bigger and bigger, you better go in and rest for a while!" Seeing that the sun above her head was getting higher and higher, Erfu's face was a little red, and Yaoqin, who had been sitting on the side to register and make records, took advantage of the fact that Ya'er and the others were sorting out a few empty shelves in the warehouse, and there was no time to move things out for registration, she secretly stretched her waist, and came to Erfu's side in a few steps, and at the same time sent a warm cup of tea to Erfu's hand, and said softly.
"I'm fine, it's good to be in the sun. Erfu shook his head with a smile, reached out and took the hot tea handed by Yaoqin, looked at Yaoqin's already a little red wrist, and said softly, "On the contrary, it's you, if your wrist is sore, take a break, this inventory of the warehouse is not a matter of urgency, just sort it out slowly." ”
As she spoke, Erf pointed to the empty wing on one side.
That's what she asked the little eunuch to clean up just now, she knows how many things there are in her warehouse, even if Yaoqin and they don't eat or drink all day long, they can't count it in a day, and she is not such a mean master, so she specially asked Zhao Dezhu and Wang Shoucai to lead people to clean up the wing, and at the same time made some reinforcements to the doors and windows, planning to estimate that the time is almost enough to let people move the part that has been counted to the wing room and put it away, the warehouse is locked again, and the inventory will continue the next day.
Hearing this, Yaoqin nodded, and said, "The slave understands." ”
After speaking, she turned around and walked to the door of the warehouse, intending to continue to register and make a book, halfway through, she hesitated slightly, and returned to Erfu's side, looked around left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention, so she said with some hesitation: "Master, the slave has something to say to you." ”
Erfu noticed a trace of hesitation flashing in Yaoqin's eyes, swept away the laziness, sat up straight, nodded at Yaoqin, and said, "Say it!"
When Yaoqin heard this, she didn't speak, but turned her head and called Qingdai, who was watching the little palace maid clean up the dust under the corridor, and asked her to stay under the corridor to prevent anyone from approaching, and then helped Erfu, who had already stood up, into the upper room.
"What the hell is it that makes you so careful!" As soon as Erfu found a chair and sat down, he saw Yaoqin kneeling in front of him with a puff, and hurriedly leaned over to help.
Yaoqin dodged Erfu's outstretched hand, knelt more upright, pursed her lips, and said, "Master, the slave is at fault."
The slave maid is your close palace maid, and she should have regarded you as the only master, but the slave maid revealed your news to Su Peisheng, and the slave maid felt that the master's attitude towards you was a little strange, which may have something to do with what Su Peisheng asked me before. ”
"What did Su Peisheng ask you?" Erfu's eyes flashed with a gleam, and she asked one after another, she seemed to have guessed, but she was still a little unsure, she had found that the wax seal of the envelope she communicated with Bai Jiao had some flowers, and the person who sent the letter didn't seem to be from the porter, but these were all trivial things, and she thought that the content of the letter was written by her and Bai Jiao in code, so she didn't take it too seriously, but now that she thinks about it...... She smashed her mouth for the sake of her hindsight.
Yaoqin quickly told the content of Su Peisheng's conversation with her that day, verifying Erfu's guess, and sure enough, the fourth master intercepted her and Bai Jiao's communication halfway, and secretly opened it to read it, but because the content was written in a password, the fourth master didn't know the content, and Su Peisheng would come to Yaoqin to talk to her, naturally hoping that Yaoqin could provide some clues, but she didn't want these letters to be written by her hiding under the covers, so ......
Then it's no wonder that the fourth master followed Su Peisheng to the West Courtyard, and when he saw her looking through the land deed in the bed, he didn't ask a word, but said a lot of things she didn't understand, dare to love is like this!
Until this time, Erfu didn't expect that the fourth master wanted to be crooked.
"It's not a big deal, since you already know that you are wrong, don't do it again in the future. Erfu, who had already made up her mind to leave, didn't blame Yaoqin too much, and Yaoqin was originally a person recruited by the fourth master, so she was not as loyal to herself as a child, which is also very understandable.
As for the rest, she didn't have the heart to think about it.
After speaking, she got up and came to Yaoqin's side, patted Yaoqin on the shoulder with a smile, helped Yaoqin up from the ground, pulled her out of the upper room, and returned to the courtyard.
Reorganizing his mood, Erfu put all those messy distractions behind him, turned his head to look at the palace maids coming and going all over the yard, clapped his hands, attracted everyone's attention to himself, pointed to the big teapot and a stack of tea bowls sent by Xiaoshengzi, and greeted with a smile: "You are all busy all morning, everyone come here to drink tea and rest!"
Erfu took a few steps back and hid away, lest these palace maids look at her next to her and rest uncomfortably, let alone drink tea generously, until she saw that Ya'er and Yaoqin had drunk tea, so she smiled and patted the position on her side, and motioned for Ya'er and Yaoqin to sit down and talk.
"Ya'er, how many things are there in the storeroom?"
"The shelves around the wall have all been removed, and all that is left are the cages piled together, and the slave and maid estimate that if they are busy for a few more hours, they should be able to count them all. Ya'er didn't know Erf's plan yet, thinking about the things in the warehouse, and looked at the part that had been cleaned up, and replied without confidence.
"Don't worry, it's almost noon.
After a while, you see that they are almost rested, so let them move their things to the side room and put them away, and the rest of the part, let's count it tomorrow, don't get tired, so as not to make mistakes in the busy, it is better to be careful. Erfu smiled and nodded, pointed to the wooden platform piled up with all kinds of ornaments, and turned to the girl and commanded.
With Erfu's words, the burden in the girl's heart was much lighter.
This is the first time she has led the little palace maid in the courtyard to run errands since she returned home, and she has really taken on a lot of pressure, for fear that if she doesn't do it properly, she will lose the face of the big palace maid!
The pale golden sunlight sprinkled on the hand-copying corridor of the carved beams and paintings, and a master and two servants sat side by side on the handrails, enjoying this rare leisure time.
Erfu leaned on the carved vermilion lacquer pillar, lazily gathered the broken hair around her ears, looked back at the cute Lori Xiaoqi in the inner room, and said secretly: How long has this girl not slept well, it's been two hours, why hasn't this girl woken up yet!
With this in mind, she stepped into the upper room.
