Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Bai Xue spent the day calmly, probably because she saw that Shen Luoxin was in good health and was back to the kind of person he used to be who didn't do well, made no mistakes, and could finish his errands calmly, but other than that, he also saw that Less than human state. It was obviously the same before, and Shen Luoxin even felt that this little girl was quite a nice person, quiet, honest, and responsible. Even the fact that she couldn't see people from time to time made her not used to being cared for by others. Shen Luoxin felt very comfortable and at ease.

But now... Ever since discovering the strangeness of this little girl, this person's disappearance from time to time has made people a little worried and suspicious - who is this Bai Xue secretly serving? Where has she gone now? What did you do? Will these things hurt the Ji family? Once these questions linger in the mind, it seems to be completely stationed, making people uneasy.

The rain stopped and it was still early.

Shen Luoxin, who always felt uneasy, decided to go to Chaoyun as soon as possible to find out the origin of Bai Xue. When I went out, I saw that the plain white handkerchief hanging in the corner of the corridor was obviously dry. I paused slightly, stood on the steps and hesitated for a long time. Finally, I turned around and put it away, folded it squarely, and put it in my arms. Carry it with you - if you meet Shangguan Chu by chance, you can just return it "conveniently".

After all, although there are not many people coming and going in my yard, the maids are coming in and out. Looking at the word "Chu" on the veil, it is somewhat unclear.

In fact, even opening his mouth to explain seemed to be too obvious.

It was a coincidence that Shen Luoxin had just walked out of the yard and had not taken two steps. When she turned a corner, Shen Luoxin saw Shangguan Chu walking towards him. His feet suddenly stopped and his body reacted faster... he turned around and hid in the grass. behind a big tree.

There was still wet rainwater on the tree trunk, which was pressed against the exposed back of his hand. The coldness penetrated his body, and Shen Luoxin shivered subconsciously.

My chest, which was only covered with a handkerchief, felt faintly hot, as if I was ironing a hand stove.

He huddled behind the tree, but couldn't help but cautiously poke his head out. The other party turned his head to talk to Qingshan and didn't notice Shen Luoxin who was hiding aside, and just strode past. Qingshan, on the other hand, turned around and glanced back. Although he didn't know why Miss Shen was hiding in that corner, he didn't open his mouth to reveal it.

He is not a talkative person.

Shen Luoxin also belatedly realized that what he had just done was too "guilty" - at that moment, his legs were really faster than his brain, and his mind was still thinking about how to look casual and normal. Calmly, he returned the square veil in his arms, as if he had picked it up and called out, "Hey, Shangguan Chu, your veil." It was as simple as that.

However, my feet made the decision faster and more honestly. Now that I think about it, it is really embarrassing.

How embarrassing.

Shen Luoxin was annoyed and hid in place for a while. After making sure that Shangguan Chu had left, she pulled off the hem of her clothes that were soaked by the rain and got out from behind the tree. She muttered annoyance to herself and lowered her head to shake off her clothes. There were drops of water on my face. When I looked up, I saw a little girl dressed as a maid standing opposite, stunned and a little angry. It was obvious that the scene of him emerging from the grass with his back bent like a thief had fallen into the eyes of the other party.

Shen Luoxin's face suddenly felt hot. She smiled coquettishly, pointed to the grass behind her, and explained in a somewhat covert manner, "Just, just... I was just playing with that child Jifeng and lost a toy. I gave it to him." Look for it..."

When she lowered her head and saw that her hands were empty, she explained more and more unnaturally, "Of course, I can't find it..." The maid was even more nervous than she was. She took a step back and saluted repeatedly, clasped her fingers and asked Shen Luoxin, "Shen, Shen Girl, I've seen Miss Shen. I'm new here, and I'm here to take care of Aunt Chaoyun. Because of my poor eyesight, I couldn't resist Miss Shen from coming. But, do you want me to look for you together with Miss Shen?"

Recently, the mansion has indeed hired two new people, who are said to be responsible for taking care of Chaoyun, and there is also a new person in Chen Lao's courtyard to help sort out the medicinal materials.

No wonder it feels unfamiliar.

Shen Luoxin's ears were still a little hot, and she felt a little guilty about the excuse she had racked her brains to come up with. When she heard that the other party was from Chaoyun's house, she became a little more enthusiastic and said, "It doesn't matter, it's his toy." There are so many, I don’t need two of these. It’s raining inside and it’s hard to find. By coincidence, I’m going to find Aunt Chaoyun, please guide me.”

The other party nodded cautiously and said yes, saluted again, then bent down and took two steps forward to lead the way, "Miss Shen, please come this way."

Then there was nothing to say.

The little girl looked young, only eleven or twelve years old, probably because of Bai Xue. Now Shen Luoxin instinctively wanted to test these little maids who looked shrinking and timid, so she coughed , asked, "How is Chaoyun recovering these days?"

"Girl, my aunt is much better. It's just that some of her skin injuries are more serious and her recovery is slower."

Shen Luoxin nodded, "That's quite tiring for you... You look young. How old are you? Where did you work before?"

The other party turned slightly to guide the way and leaned forward to answer, "Girl, this is my servant's errand. I'm not tired... I'm twelve this year. Taking care of my aunt is my first job. I learned some knitting skills from my mother at home." I want to work as an embroiderer for a more respectable job, but I really don’t have the talent in this area, so I can only do manual work like serving people..."

While sighing like this, he suddenly looked at Shen Luoxin with a somewhat scrutinizing gaze, and waved his hands in a panic to explain, "No, no, no, ah, that's not what I mean. I'm not saying that this job is not good. This job is extremely bad." Okay, I have a lot of money per month, and my aunt is easy to talk to... Really, girl, slave, slave, that's not what I meant!"

The little maid scared herself and looked like she was about to cry.

Shen Luoxin waved her hand, "It doesn't matter, I know what you mean... Besides, compared to Xiu Niang, such a job is indeed not decent enough. You are right, so there is no need to be nervous... Besides, you are serving Chaoyun now." , I can't punish the people in her courtyard easily, so you can lead the way safely, I just asked a few random questions." It's my first time to work as an errand, I haven't had a boss before, and I look like an honest child... But I hope it’s not like Bai Xue.

Shen Luoxin thought like this, lowering her head and laughing - the Ji family is not an easy place to sneak in, how can there be so many people with unknown origins who have bad intentions? In this way, I feel relieved.
