Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 167 Silently touched, there is no if (2)
Qiu Ming was taken aback, his eyes flickering.

"Fifth sister, what are you talking about?"

Youlian had already walked in, and was slightly surprised to see them coming out, and was about to salute when Qiu Mingyue interrupted her.

"Eight younger sister fell asleep just now, let her drink it later when the medicine is cold. She is tired today and may need to sleep a little longer. Don't disturb her."

"Give it to me." Qiu Mingrong took the medicine, "You go down first, and I'll call you later if needed." She turned around and walked to the back room as she spoke.Qiu Mingyue was ignored at all.

It seems that there is still a gap between Miss Seven and Miss Fifth. Miss Fifth came here only for Miss Eight.Youlian thought to herself for a while, letting go of her doubts, and blessed Qiu Mingyue.

"Fifth Miss, are you going back? This servant will send you off."

Qiu Mingyue smiled kindly at her, "Your name is Youlian, right?"

"Yes."

Qiu Mingyue took her hand, her eyes were kind and gentle.

"Bamei always said that you are careful and smart, and it is thanks to you to take care of her by her side."

Youlian was a little embarrassed, "This is the duty of a servant girl."

Qiu Mingyue smiled, and suddenly said: "It would be great if I could have a smart maid like you by my side, hey!"

You Lian was taken aback, her eyes flashed past something, she lowered her head and said modestly: "Sister Hong'e and Luyuan beside Miss Fifth are both smart and capable, and the slaves are far behind."

Qiu Mingyue smiled again and walked out.

You Lian thought she would say something more, but unexpectedly she turned around and left, and after realizing it, she chased after her.

"Miss Fifth, this servant will escort you out."

Qiu Mingyue didn't refuse, and asked casually while walking leisurely.

"Youlian, you are the son of Qiufu's family, right?"

"Yes, the three generations of the servant girl's family are all descendants of the Qiu family."

"Oh." Qiu Mingyue nodded, "Have you been with Third Aunt since you were young?"

"Yes. But the servant girl was a third-class maidservant at first, and later the servant girl's mother was transferred to Sanfen's side as a dressmaker, so she asked the third lady to transfer the servant girl to the house to become a first-class maidservant."

"Shangyi system?" Qiu Mingyue said seemingly unintentionally: "Speaking of this, I still lack a Shangyi supervisor by my side. Hey, Honge and the others just do some chores and are quicker, but they can control the distribution of new clothes Always make mistakes, I have told them several times. I have always wanted to get someone to be the clothes supervisor, to teach them well, so as not to keep assigning the wrong clothes. Every time I want to change clothes, they have to find a lot of clothes. I don’t throw away the clothes I haven’t worn for a long time, and they take up a lot of space in the closet.” She complained slightly, and then realized that she had talked too much, and said apologetically, “I’m sorry Youlian, don't take offense when I got upset and babbled a few more words."

You Lian was immersed in her own thoughts, and at this moment she woke up like a dream, and said, "How could it be, Fifth Miss is too polite."

There is a clothing department in the palace, and there are also clothing rooms in the mansions of ordinary wealthy people.This work is actually very simple, and it only regulates new clothes every year, as well as jewelry and the like.You can also get a lot of oil and water here.And Shangyijian also has people in charge, that is, Shangyi System and Shangyi Supervisor.In fact, to put it bluntly, there is only one chief steward and deputy steward, supervising each other, but there are big discrepancies in the monthly rules.

The monthly rate of the Shangyi System is five taels of silver, and the monthly rate of the Shangyi Supervisor is ten years, which is exactly double.And, well, it's an easy job, and a decent one.Generally, only those of the older generation in the Fuchu are eligible for this position.The three generations of Lian's ancestors all worked in the mansion, but her mother didn't even manage to be a small clothes supervisor. Could she have no resentment in her heart?Even if it wasn't there before, after today, there will be an extra hurdle in my heart.

Qiu Mingyue smiled silently and sighed again.

"Eighth Sister's body is really worrying. I really don't understand why Seventh Sister is so lively and weak when she was born by the same mother? After taking medicine for so many years, she still doesn't feel better."

You Lian thumped in her heart, and said in a low voice: "My servant heard from my mother that when Aunt Yu had a difficult labor, she spent a lot of energy when she gave birth to Miss Seven. Later, when she gave birth to Miss Eight, she almost lost all energy. Eighth Miss just fell to the ground that night. However, Eighth Miss was congenitally deficient, and the doctor said that it might be because she stayed in the mother's womb for too long and held her breath for too long, which caused her heart veins to be blocked, and her blood vessels didn't hurt, so she was physically weak and sick."

Qiu Mingyue nodded, "No wonder... hey, it's thanks to the third aunt who has been so ardent and caring all these years. Otherwise, when Aunt Yu left, and the seventh and eighth younger sisters were still so young, what would they do in the future? Third aunt has always been tolerant of the virtuous, otherwise Seventh and Eighth Sisters are even more miserable."

Youlian didn't speak any more, she was already far away from the door, Qiu Mingyue stopped, and smiled at her: "Okay, let's send it here, I will come to see Bamei another day, you go back, at this moment, Maybe Eighth Sister is about to wake up."

Lian blessed Fushen again, "Yes." She went back with a heavy heart.

Qiu Mingyue turned around with an unpredictable expression.

Third aunt, you are clever and calculating all your life, but have you ever thought that one day, you will calculate yourself?

In the face of interests, all rationality and sincerity will be wiped out.

The corner of Qiu Mingyue's mouth raised slightly, this round has only just begun.

Instead of going back, he went to Qiu Mingzhu's place.Vanilla stood guard at the door, and was slightly taken aback when she saw her coming.

"Fifth Miss?"

"Where is Fourth Sister?" Qiu Mingyue walked over and asked.

Xiang Cao bowed her knees and said: "Miss is sleepy today, just went to sleep."

Qiu Mingyue nodded, then I will come to her later.

Vanilla blessed her body, "Fifth Miss, walk slowly."

Seeing Qiu Mingyue's figure leave with her own eyes, Xiang Cao walked in with a sigh.

In the house, Qiu Mingzhu didn't sleep, but sat in front of the window in a daze, staring at the branches washed by the rain outside the window, her eyes were out of focus.

"Miss." Vanilla called out in a low voice.

Qiu Mingzhu didn't look back, she just asked, "Fifth Sister is gone?"

"Ah."

Qiu Mingzhu didn't speak anymore, Xiangcao paused for a moment, and finally couldn't help saying: "Miss, you...why don't you see Fifth Miss?" Just now, as soon as Miss Wu came back, she said that if Fifth Miss came to look for her, she would say that she was sleeping, so she couldn't see her. anyone.Vanilla was puzzled, aren't Miss and Fifth Miss usually very good?Why today?

Qiu Mingzhu naturally knew what Xiangcao was thinking, she didn't explain, but closed her eyes tiredly and leaned against the window rail.

"Go down, I want to be alone."

Vanilla opened her mouth, hesitated to speak, but finally said nothing.

"Yes."

The slight sound of footsteps slowly faded away, and she was left alone in the whole room.Qiu Mingshan went to visit Qiu Minglan, but she hasn't come back yet.The room was not big, but it seemed quiet and empty at this moment.
