Wang's little lady

Zisu noticed that the other party seemed to be interested in making friends, but did not insist on it.

She and the girl from the Xie family do have some affinity, and she doesn't mind saying something if it's a trivial matter.

If it was too difficult, she was a maid of the Yu family after all, so she would naturally put the Yu family first.

Besides, it was just a deposit, which she didn't take seriously. She would just have to pay more when the time came.

"Since the Xie family sisters have said so, I will be shameless and rude. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave now. I still have to go back and talk to Madam."

Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Hongdou asked the other party to wait for a while, then turned around and went into the house to get a small bag of things and handed it to Zisu.

"I see that sister just now likes this tea. The new one made at home is not ready yet, but I saved some at home. You can take it back and drink it slowly."

Zi Su was a little surprised. Both the Madam and the Master liked the tea very much. If she took it back, the Madam would be happy and would reward her.

This girl from the Xie family is really good at giving things, and she really doesn't want to refuse this tea.

But this tea is probably a bit expensive, and Mrs. Zhao doesn't have much.

But she didn't know the exact amount, and she didn't bring a few taels of silver when she came out today. What if it wasn't enough?
Forget it, wait until I get back and report to Madam.

"Sister Xie, to tell you the truth, my wife and master also like this tea very much, so I accepted it shamelessly."

Hong Dou naturally hopes that she will accept it.

And she could also guess that even if Zi Su liked the tea, she would at most secretly keep some of it. After all, it was a fresh thing and the Zhao family didn't have much on hand.

Most of it still had to be handed over to her master, which was her purpose.

"If you like the things you make at home, I will deliver them to your house when the next batch is ready."

After another polite greeting, Zisu reluctantly walked out of the Xie family's door.

Hong Dou watched the other party leave. After knowing that Zi Su was nowhere to be seen, she closed the courtyard door and returned to the house.

"Dou, are you too kind to this girl? I don't see you like this usually?"

Although Mrs. Xie also likes this girl Zi Su, after all, this is the first time she has met her, and she thinks she cannot be like her granddaughter.

Hongdou smiled, pulled her grandma to sit down, and expressed her thoughts to the family.

"Grandma, mother, didn't sister Zisu just say that her husband resigned and came here?"

"I am thinking that I will go to Mr. Zhao tomorrow to find out. If Mr. Yu is from a serious imperial examination background, Brother Tuan will study later..."

Granny Xie and others all understood what was left unfinished.

The granddaughter (daughter) has set her sights on the official.

this. . .Are you a little brave?

"Dou, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?"

"Even if Mr. Yu has resigned now, he is an official, so why would he be willing to give a child to a family like ours..."

Mrs. Xie didn't say all the rest. After all, her grandson was sitting here blinking and looking at her. A six-year-old child is not young anymore and can understand many things clearly.

She was afraid of embarrassing her children by speaking out.

The same is true for Ms. Zhang. She is afraid that the greater her hopes, the greater her disappointment. She didn't have such thoughts in the past, so naturally she wouldn't have such worries.

But once the idea arises, if it fails in the end, the whole family will feel unhappy.

Hongdou understood the worries of the two elders and looked at Brother Tuan's confused expression.

She pulled her brother over and held him in her arms for comfort.

"Grandma, mother, we don't have to think too much. Master Yu's appearance is nothing more than giving us one more child."

"This matter is naturally very difficult. Not to mention my younger brother, all the young men who are studying within a hundred miles away are probably thinking of ways to squeeze their heads to get closer to Master Yu these days."

As for any scholar who wants to take the imperial examination, who doesn't want to be favored by the adults in the court?

If someone just gives you some advice, it will be much better than if you just sit back and study.

This is the gap between knowledge and foresight.

"Now that we have this opportunity to come and chat, why not give it a try?
God has sent us opportunities, and we must seize them. Regardless of whether we succeed or not, we must at least try our best. "

“If you don’t ask for a refund of [-] yuan, even if it doesn’t work out, it’s not a big deal.

Anyway, Brother Tuan is still young, and it is enough for him to find a tutor with good conduct for his enlightenment. "And she had to find an opportunity to inquire carefully about Master Yu's character.

No matter how high-ranking an official is, if his conduct is too bad, she is still afraid that her younger brother will be misled.

Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Zhang also felt that their granddaughter (daughter) was right.

It’s just that from this moment on, I started to think about it, and I’m afraid I’ll have to think about it every day until there’s no result.

At the same time, the Yu family.

"Ma'am, the maidservant is back."

Zi Su walked into Mrs. Yu's yard with her things and greeted Mrs. Yu with a smile.

After all, she was the maid who had been by her side for many years. Mrs. Yu knew that Zisu's matter was settled as soon as she saw her.

"How is it? Is the family okay?"

Zisu bowed beside her and waited for a reply: "The Xie family promised to have everything ready and delivered the next morning."

Then he handed the thing to the table and continued: "Madam, guess what this is?"

Zi Su gave it up and asked Mrs. Yu with a smile.

After all, she is the eldest maid next to Mrs. Yu, and she cannot always speak with a tight face and a serious face when dealing with her master.

Otherwise, the master will feel that the servant is boring.

When Mrs. Yu heard Zisu's words, she raised her head and glanced at her doubtfully.

Under the hint from Zi Su's eyes, she picked up the small package on the table, brought it to her nose and smelled it.

"It tastes like..."

Mrs. Yu looked at Zi Su with some surprise, and then opened the package. Sure enough, it was green tea, exactly the same as what she got at Zhao's house a few days ago.

"Where did this come from? Mrs. Zhao said that day that this tea was temporarily out of stock."

On Mrs. Zhao's birthday, each person only got two taels.

After returning that day, she made a drink for him, and he really liked it.

In the past two days, I specially took out the jade bowl from the warehouse, saying that it tastes good with green tea and looks good.

But the total portion is not much, so I taste a little every day, and even save some for future guests.

But the bag of tea that Zisu brought back today looks like it's worth two or two.

"Back to Madam, this tea was given by the Xie family."

"Thank you?"

Mrs. Yu was a little surprised. Didn't the Xie family run a snack stall?
Zisu knew that his wife was curious, so she didn't dare to show off too much and told everything that happened at Xie's house:
"It was only after I went there that I found out that not only the jelly and braised noodles, but also the tea was made by the Xie family."

“But it’s true that not much has been made, and the next batch is not ready yet.”

"The Xie family took some of this from their own share and asked this servant to bring it back to you."

"The Xie family is quite generous."

Just by looking at Mrs. Zhao that day, I knew that this tea was not cheap, but I didn't expect that the Xie family would give it away so easily.

"Since the Xie family gave this to you, are you willing to give it to me?"

Mrs. Yu jokingly asked Zisu, who doesn’t want good things?

And as long as Zisu didn't say anything, she, the master, wouldn't suddenly search the maid's house.

Zisu curtsied and said respectfully:

"The Xie family knows that this slave is a maid of the Yu family. On the surface, this tea is given to the slave, but in fact, the Xie family wants to use the slave's hand to give it to the madam and the master."

"How dare you, your servant, take it for yourself?"

She could feel that the Xie family girl was more attentive to her after learning about her master's identity as he resigned from office and retired to seclusion.

Although the other party's attitude is sincere, his behavior is natural and not false;
But she has behaved since she was in elementary school, and she often went out with her wife to deal with things in the past. She can still distinguish some things.
