Seventy-Five: Maid's Thoughts (1)

After taking a comfortable bath, my sore hands and feet finally regained strength slowly, not as weak as before.

Putting on a slightly frugal home clothes, Jiang Pengji knelt in front of the bronze mirror, letting Xunmei and Taxue play with her hair.

Noticing the slight hesitation of Texue on the left, she opened her eyes involuntarily, glanced over, and said softly, "What's wrong, Xunmei?"

At this time, Xunmei's eyes were on her loose and half-open skirt, and she could vaguely see the corsets wrapped in layers.

Being caught straight, Xunmei's cheeks were stained a little crimson, hesitantly bit her lower lip, her voice was like a mosquito.

"Mr. Erlang, that Xu Ke is still kneeling in the courtyard outside the corridor... I don't know..."

As soon as Xunmei said it, she received a fierce stare from Taxue, forcing her to shut up, with a bit of worry and timidity on her face.

"Half an hour has passed, why is he still kneeling?"

Jiang Pengji frowned, she asked Xu Ke to kneel and reflect for half an hour, only an hour.

But according to Xunmei's words just now, doesn't it mean that Xu Ke has been kneeling outside for more than two hours, at least four hours?

Taxue snorted softly, and dexterously pulled her long hair into a simple male bun with both hands, which was a little loose, a little more casual and lazy.

"It's just that Xun Mei is still soft-hearted. Just because of Xu Ke's previous behavior of causing trouble for Lang Jun, it is not too much to kneel for a day and a night. What's more, Lang Jun only asked him to kneel and reflect for half an hour. He didn't want to get up. Who Can you still press his shoulders to prevent him from getting up?"

Like a ignited firecracker, Taxue's words were full of dissatisfaction and anger.

Jiang Pengji stood up, closed her skirt, and tightened the outer robe, her tone was a little comforting.

"I see, Taxue should change his name. How can this fiery temper be as cold as ice and snow? That heart is obviously extremely hot. I know you are complaining for me, but Xu Ke is different and can't Treat it like an ordinary slave."

Being teased by Jiang Pengji's jokes, Taxue's pretty face was also stained crimson, and said angrily, "Lang Jun seems to be enlightened now, he can say anything. Fortunately, I know Lang Jun's character, if I change him Miss, this soul has not been randomly hooked away."

When this sentence is translated, there are only four words - how can you not marry me!

"Okay, okay, I'll just restrain myself a bit in the future, and I will definitely not mess around with the girl's soul."

After Jiang Pengji finished talking and laughing, she turned her head to Xunmei and said, "Go and tell Xu Ke to go down to rest early, and follow me to visit the village in the morning. The weather is unpredictable now, and the humidity is heavy at night. , He has been kneeling on the porch for so long, how can his knees withstand the cold? You can’t ignore it just because you are young, find a doctor for him, and prescribe some medicine to dispel the cold.”

Xunmei was a little nervous at first, but after hearing Jiang Pengji's instructions, her pale face returned to a little rosy.

She knew that Mr. Erlang was still Mr. Erlang, always so gentle and generous.

Watching Xunmei retreat, Taxue snorted softly, with a little disdain, and muttered, "Fantasy!"

According to the hearing of other people, they definitely couldn't hear what she said, but this didn't include Jiang Pengji.

She turned her head suspiciously and asked, "Why did this girl, Xunmei, provoke you? I see that the two of you usually have a good relationship."

Taxue's breathing was stagnant, and then he felt a little awkward and embarrassed, as if he didn't know how to answer her question.

In the end, she twisted her veil as if giving up on herself, bit her lips and said, "Mr. Lang is kind and pure, and he was brought up as a man since he was a child. How can he know what an ordinary daughter's family thinks? That Xunmei clearly has other thoughts. Thinking of finding another place to go.”

"Find another high place?" Jiang Pengji raised her eyebrows with a smile, her voice was slightly lowered, and she was a little more curious, "You said that Xunmei fell in love with Xu Ke?"

Xu Ke, although he is only seventeen years old, in ancient times he was already an adult man who could start a family and start a business, and his appearance is not bad. Although there are many marks on his face after being tattooed, it does not detract from his beauty at all.

Even in Jiang Pengji's view, she is more mature.

After hearing her straightforward guess, Ta Xue's eyes were a little straightened, as if he couldn't believe it, he patrolled her face back and forth, determined to see something. However, Jiang Pengji's heart was so easy to pry, and after a while, Taxue gave up.

"Where did you fall in love with Xu Ke? It's clear that you have a different heart, and you think Xu Ke is a rare commodity! Although Nu and Xunmei are just maids around the man, there are also different maids, let alone the special situation of the man. After the monarch weakened the crown...the status is even different."

At first, Taxue still gritted her teeth angrily, her cheeks blushed inexplicably when she said this, and skipped some content vaguely.

In the entire Liu Mansion, except for a few masters who knew Liu Lanting's true gender, they were only walking on the snow and looking for plum blossoms.

The two maids were carefully selected by Liu She and his step-wife. They were brought up from an early age, and they were even more particular about food and clothing than ordinary wealthy businessmen's daughters. Both of them are transparent, they didn't understand it when they were young, how can they not know it now?

Unless there are some force majeure factors, Liu Lanting's gender will probably be concealed forever. As the two maidservants who rarely know the truth, their future destination is also very clear - when Liu Lanting becomes an adult, she will definitely become her roommate. people!

If Liu Lanting is a man, this kind of future will be an excellent opportunity for every maid, and she will suddenly become a master.

Relying on the friendship when he was young, even if he can't spoil the back house alone, he can still get a little extra favor. Not to mention that Liu Lanting still has a soft heart and a pure and kind personality, even if they have to live under the hands of the wife in the future, they will never be neglected and ruined.

It's a pity that no one knows better than them that Liu Lanting is not a man, but a woman of the same gender as them.

It's normal for Xunmei to have other thoughts and want to find a way out for herself.

Jiang Pengji has a bright mind, even if she doesn't know much about this ancient era, she can still deduce some logical things. Connecting to the attitudes of Taxue and Xunmei, the little doubts in my heart were instantly answered.

Pursing her lips and chuckling, she raised her hand and patted Taxue's bun affectionately. In the doubtful and angry eyes of the other party, she teased, "Xunmei did this, isn't it just as you want? She left From now on, you will be the only one who monopolizes my young master's favor."

Ta Xue: "..."

At first, her pretty face was flushed, and then it became embarrassingly blue, and when she realized that Jiang Pengji's face was indeed only teasing, she instantly realized that she had been tricked, and her eyes turned bloody with anger, "Lang Jun can tease people, slave! Are you a small-bellied chicken in your heart?"

Turning his back to her, his angry appearance was reflected in the candlelight, making him look extraordinarily charming and delicate.
