Chapter 137 Three Advances and Three Retreats ([-])

"Second master, Lubi, my servant." A pleasant female voice sounded outside the study door.The door is open, but you don't come in. This is a man who really knows the rules.

Xiao Wei supported the table and stood up, "Come in. This guy Yan Yan was lazy again, and he said he was going to get the umbrella, but he surprised you again."

"Yan Yan was wet all over. I was afraid that he would get sick and wait on the second master, so I told him to go down and rest quickly. It's what slaves should do to take an umbrella. Besides, if the second master doesn't go back to the garden, he will It hasn't stopped yet, so it's not a shock." The voice came into the bookstore.

Mo Zi looked at the woman, the pink and blue pleated skirt and lotus leaf shirt, not to mention how beautiful she is, her facial features are very demure, using flowers as a metaphor, it is like a rhododendron in spring, not expensive, not ostentatious, just open .The hair is not combed like an ordinary girl's bun, but a more complicated hairstyle. Although there are only two jasper hairpins, they are of the highest quality.

A self-proclaimed servant, who is more noble than the eldest maid, is by Xiao Wei's side.It should be self-evident what kind of identity that is.

Behind Lubi, there were two little girls, but they didn't follow in. They were holding a lamp in one hand and an umbrella in the other on the porch outside the door.

Lubi obviously didn't expect that there were other people besides Xiao Wei in the bookstore, so she was a little startled.Seeing that Mo Zi was dressed as a maid, she didn't pay attention to her sitting posture, thinking that Yan Yan had hired her to serve the master temporarily, so she nodded slightly to her.

Mo Zi returned Lu Bi's greeting, thought for a while, put down the book in her hand, and stood up.

"Second Lord, you're all wet. It's not good if you catch a cold. This rock smoke, I clearly handed him the cloak of brocade and peacock silk. I was afraid that the sky would change at night, and he didn't think of putting it on for you. Come on. Fortunately, I brought a change of clothes, so I changed quickly." Lubi's tone was full of concern, so considerate.

Mo Zi thought, all men would like a woman like Lu Bi, who doesn't seem to cause trouble, and is a caring person.Slowly realizing that Xiao Erlang might have to change clothes, he didn't know whether to hide in the bookshelf or wait outside.Although she is a girl, she serves the hostess.Men, you still have to avoid suspicion, so as not to be unclear in the future.

"It's not a long way, go back and change." Xiao Wei showed the general's "rough skin and thick flesh" at this time.

Yes, yes, hurry up and don't disturb her looking for books.If you come and go like this, she will really spend the night here.Mo Zi secretly urged in her heart.

"Second Master, at least I changed my coat." Lubi insisted.

Mo Zi felt that she couldn't damage her reputation, so she walked out from behind the bookshelf, and when she saw the two people, she bent her knees and nodded her toes, "Mo Zi, wait outside first." If you want to change it, discuss it quickly.

"You don't need to go out." When Mo Zi was about to leave, Xiao Wei strode towards the door at the same time, and asked Lu Bi to open an umbrella outside.

Lubi took a careful look at Mo Zi this time, her expression didn't change, she lowered her eyes to follow Xiao Wei's words, and went out to tell the little girls to put up their umbrellas.

Mo Zi stood in the door, saying that the second master can leave.

Xiao Wei didn't reply and walked into the rainy field.

Mo Zi sat back in front of the bookshelf again, finally able to breathe smoothly, and the speed of finding books was much faster than before.I don't know if it's because of the restriction of status, or because of the guilt of carrying Brother Mo's secret, staying under the same roof with Xiao Erlang is not comfortable at all.

She thought about it and regained her tranquility, but after a while, another person came in from the door.

"I'm Hong Luo, a girl from Weifengjuli. According to the second master's words, I will bring the book to the third grandma. You can take it quickly." Another nice guy.

Mo Zi hurriedly got up again, took the book and looked at it, it was the Book of Songs and Chunqiu, "Thank you sister Hong Luo, it saves me the trouble of looking for books."

"You don't need to thank me, Second Master Xie is. I left the lamp and umbrella outside, when you go back by yourself, be careful." After finishing what the master asked, Hong Luo turned and left without further words.

Mo Zi blew out the lamp and extinguished the wax, closed the door, held up an umbrella with a book in between, and held a glazed lamp that could not be extinguished by rain or wind, and thought, alcohol is really amazing.

Back in Mozhi Residence, Mo Zi was not surprised to see that Bai He was the gatekeeper, but, "You look at the door, isn't it strange that Hongmei has other girls?"

"Big girls also have to do the work of little girls, this is a new rule in our yard." Bai He hurriedly took the umbrella from Mo Zi's hand, "Don't you know? The new girls like grandma now Well. I can take a day off every few days, and I can serve in front of the master regardless of rank, and follow the world in the garden in turn. Hongmei praised grandma in private for being kind and kind, saying that she has never seen girls who treat her That's great."

"She said yes, but it's not the elders who said yes." Although Qiu Sanniang bought the hearts of the maids with small favors, those new rules, if one is not good, will become unreputable in the eyes of the hierarchical masters of the palace. Or incompetent.

"The meaning of Hongmei is the same, so this rule is established by Mozhi Juli, and she also asked the maids not to confide in front of others. If other masters are upset, won't the benefits of these maids be lost? Said, under Hongmei's repeated admonitions, their mouths are really tight." Bai He is a girl who is easy to treat people, and now she and Hongmei can talk to each other.

Mo Zi thought, it's really good to have someone who is familiar with the noble ladies of the palace by Qiu Sanniang's side.Next, it depends on whether Hongmei can be loyal to Qiu Sanniang.

"You can just tell me, don't tell grandma. She made a new rule to make it easier for you to come and go." There are two things that Bai He fears most in this world.One, she godmother's body.Second, Qiu Sanniang and Mo Zi are strong against each other.

"I'm just reminding you. Grandma has a quick temper. Although there is a difference in dignity, sometimes she should be persuaded even more. Don't let her temper offend everyone." Mo Zi knew that it was almost impossible for Bai He to talk back to Qiu Sanniang. Possibly, "But now that Hongmei is here, I'm not particularly worried."

"Yes, yes, I know I'm soft-hearted, and I don't want to say anything to others." Bai He chuckled, "Okay, go to bed quickly. I'll say hello to grandma tomorrow morning. Just wait, the loud talker will definitely ask you, Where did you get lazy all day?"

It's red plum.

Mo Zi waved her hand, and patted the two books, "Where's the laziness. Next time, grandma will look for books and let someone who is good at them go. I'd like to see if she doesn't have to spend a day?

After speaking, go back to the room and sleep.

In the early morning of the second day, Mo Zi entered Qiu Sanniang's bedroom to serve her, handed her a towel to wipe her face, but saw her staring at him.

"Grandma didn't sleep well last night?" With such a deep expression?

Qiu Sanniang seemed to have forgotten about asking Mo Zi to find a book, she turned her eyes away, and said, "Last night, there was a sudden thunder and rain, and I slept soundly, but I was woken up, and my sleep became shallower, as if I always heard The sound of the rain dripping."

"In the afternoon, grandma will take another nap." Mo Zi felt that the towel was cold, so he stirred it again to warm it up.

This time Qiu Sanniang picked it up and wiped it casually, "Mo Zi."

"Yes, grandma." This title, alas, it would be wrong to change the key.

"Do you... believe in fate?" All of Qiu Sanniang's anomalies were due to that fortune teller.What he said really couldn't stop her from thinking about it.

She was destined to be short of water. In the year she was born, her mother went to calculate her horoscope. It is said that the fortune teller said it was very accurate, so she specially asked for a name with water.She never mentioned this to anyone.Besides, the land of Shuimu is completely like talking about Hongyuao, and she does plan to continue to leave it unused, or find a chance to sell it.Now that I think about it, I was hit by a lack of water, so I can't sell it, and I can't afford it.But, to Mo Zi?

When saving Mo Zi, she could tell from her clothes and jewelry that she was not an ordinary person, otherwise she would not be willing to save ordinary people with her nonsensical personality.Your Excellency?Absolutely possible.Mo Zi said that her parents were just ordinary people. She believed it on the surface, but in her heart she thought she was not telling the truth.After Mo Zi helped her, the wisdom and insight she showed were not what a daughter of a small family would have.She also understands that once Mo Zi's real identity is exposed, a contract can't keep anyone at all.But as long as Mo Zi refuses to admit her past, she won't be so stupid as to give up the opportunity to use Mo Zi to make a lot of money.

The other three girls thought that the relationship between the two was tense from time to time. In fact, it was better to say that she and Mo Zi were looking for a balance point where they could coexist peacefully and achieve each other's goals, so they kept testing the limit of each other's patience.

Mo Zi gets five points for being a girl, but why not only five points for her being a master.It seems that she is pressing down on Mo Zi, but in fact she has never really pressed over it.When she made things difficult for Mo Zi, she never left enough room for her to play, and never punished Mo Zi's pride indiscriminately.

The two have always been evenly matched.

So far, the tasks entrusted to Mo Zi have not been impossible.She didn't doubt that Mo Zi, as the fortune teller said, was a person of Water Edge Wood.She has seen the carpentry skills of Mo Zi's left hand with her own eyes. It is very dexterous, better than ordinary carpenters.Mo Zi ran the boat, and heard from the brothers of the Cen family that he was like a duck to water, he learned how to steer a boat, and he was able to walk alongside the gangsters once he got off the boat.

But, hand over Hong Yuao to Mo Zi?

She is conflicted.On the one hand, she knew that Mo Zi was the most suitable candidate in terms of the people available around her.But on the other hand, unlike in the past, the entire business has to be handed over to Mo Zi, and it is what Mo Zi is best at. With Mo Zi's intelligence, how much benefit can he get from it?She also knew that it would be a matter of time before Mo Zi left her, but she didn't want to let Mo Zi be free so early.The shipyard is profitable, so it can only protect her foundation.If Mo Zi took advantage of the gap, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?

However, I thought about these words repeatedly in my heart: "Water and wood are in your hands, and you also have people with living water. But you are extremely dull, blind and deaf, and you want to cut people's wings, and you are greedy for small profits in front of you. You must know everything and be sincere. If you have a wide heart, you will go far. If you are not willing to let go, how can you get the sincerity of the noble person who helped you?"

Is there something to gain if you have something to give up?If she let Mo Zi go, would Mo Zi really help her instead?

Qiu Sanniang thought about it all night and decided to try it out.

First update today.

I went out during the day, so the second one may only have [-] words, and it will be relatively late.

What, my dears.
