Splendid little maid

Chapter 25
Seeing that they couldn't stop crying, Chen Xi stepped forward to control the scene.

She was also telling the truth.

Luckily no one is here.

What if it is seen?
Fuzhu and Yu'er wiped away their tears when they heard the words, and nodded emphatically to express that they would stop crying.

Just still hiccupping.

Chen Xi helped his forehead, and said helplessly: "Hurry up, Yu'er, you are taller, come and help me help my mother-in-law to the room to rest, Fuzhu, hang up the rest of the things first, and then help me when we come out." You hang the rest up."

It's good to find something for them to do, to distract them.

They regard her as the backbone.

When Chen Xi spoke, Fuzhu and Yu'er obediently agreed with red eyes and red noses.

Mrs. Zhang seemed to be crushed, she was a little dazed and lost her mind.

Chen Xi and Yu'er worked together to push her back into her room, and helped her to lie on the bed, and then pulled the patched quilt up for her, and it was finally settled.

Chen Xi saw her mumbling to herself with her eyes open, repeating fragmentary words over and over again.

Either the third young master is pitiful, or the second grandma, or sister Qi.

Chen Xi could even guess the identity.

The second grandma Mrs. Zhang is talking about is naturally not the current second grandma, but the third young master's mother. That sister Qi may be the third young master's nanny.

She may have worked under their hands, and she should have a very deep relationship.

Otherwise, the old lady who has been in the mansion for so many years will not lose control of her emotions.

Chen Xi felt that the death of the nurse was probably the last straw that broke Mrs. Zhang.

She remembered that she said earlier that now the third young master is only taken care of by the nanny.

The second master of the Huang family and his wife should have been extremely favored in the past, and they seemed to be surrounded by their servants, but now the couple died and the other disappeared, the youngest was imprisoned, and loyal servants like Mrs. Zhang were also scattered Well, the Huang Mansion undergoes a big change every three years, so she is probably the only one left.

And the only reliable and trustworthy person around the third young master is gone today.

Another person that Mrs. Zhang knew well left, so it's no wonder that she was hit hard.

Chen Xi felt that what he guessed should be the same, and he sighed for her in his heart.

The living conditions of the inferior people are really poor.

Chen Xi looked around the hut.

There is no light here, and the humidity is heavy, so you can imagine how difficult it is in winter.

Although the quilt is thick, there are many patches, and the cotton wool is still running around, so it is not solid at all.

There was only one wooden table in the room, on top of which was a broken teapot and mismatched teacups, plus a bowl of Zamian steamed buns covered by a small bamboo basket, which was hard.

It was hard for Chen Xi to imagine that living in the same mansion could be so different.

Yu'er couldn't help being surprised, his brows had been furrowed from the beginning, unbelievable.

"It's too hard to bear. How can people live in this kind of place? It must be very cold in winter. It's warm on my boat. The sun is still there, and there are fish and shrimp wrapped around the belly. How can I eat such hard things? I don't even know if I can bite or not."

Chen Xi touched Yu'er's head with his hand and sighed, "Everyone has his own life, let's go?"

Yu'er was touched on the head, a little shy and warm, and nodded obediently.

She looked back at Mrs. Zhang and saw that she was still staring in a daze. She thought that if something happened to her friend, she would probably suffer a lot too.
Suddenly feel sad again.

Yu'er lightly put the snacks in his arms on the wooden table, "Grandma, let's go first, don't be too sad, we will have to visit you often in the future"

As soon as Chen Xi walked to the door, when he heard Yu'er's soft voice, he all lamented the kindness of these two girls.

only.

In this case, let Mrs. Zhang take it easy.

The fish also quietly withdrew.

Chen Xi conveniently closed the door halfway.

in the courtyard.

Fuzhu was still wiping tears while drying things, sobbing.

flushed.

Because he is not tall enough, the little clever ghost does not know where to move the small bench.

She just stepped on it to dry.

It's not high enough, and I have to stand on tiptoe, stretch my hands and try to dry it.

Chen Xi was so cute when he saw her.

Yu'er was also amused, and finally stopped crying, and hurried over to help.

Chen Xi didn't waste time, took three steps and made two steps, picked up the things and hung them up to dry. She is tall enough, so it is very convenient and fast to dry things.

Fuzhu's eyes were swollen, and when she saw them approaching from the side, she asked, "Is mother-in-law okay?"

They never thought that the changes would be so fast, and the people who were still doing well before would suddenly collapse.

Yu'er's movement of bending down to pick up things stopped, and she shook her head regretfully when she heard this, and said, "The person she knew passed away, how can I be better? It's estimated that it will take a while."

Fuzhu's nose was sour when she heard the words, tears fell and she said: "That mother-in-law is too pitiful. She is so old, she should be smiling and letting her grandchildren age, but now she has nothing to rely on, and she has to see familiar people leave one by one. Now I am sad and collapsed again, but I don’t even know if I can ask for a leave of absence.”

Yu'er felt cold when thinking of Mrs. Zhang's words, and said in a low voice, "Did you hear that just now? My mother-in-law said that after the servants here died, they were wrapped in straw mats and thrown into mass graves. When I think of this, I feel chilled, and I don't know what to say." too scared"

They both began to mourn.

Chen Xi looked up at the sky, it was foggy, no wonder it made people even more depressed.

"Hurry up, both of you. Today is really not a good time to cry. If someone with a heart sees us and reports us, they will have to go to the mass grave to report."

Chen Xi said calmly.

Fuzhu and Yu'er were so frightened that they hurriedly wiped away their tears, not daring to cry anymore.

Chen Xi sighed and said, "If you really don't want to be wrapped in straw mats and thrown into a mass grave, then we should be more cautious in our words and deeds, and work hard to reach a higher status. One day, redeeming ourselves is the best thing. We can start a family if we want .”

"Besides, crying is useless, and it can't solve the problem. It's fine to let go of your emotions once in a while, but crying all the time will hurt your body, and it's even worse if you damage your eyes."

Chen Xi said old-fashionedly, his face was obviously still immature, but now there was a deepness in his eyebrows and eyes that didn't match his age, it seemed that he had experienced a lot.

"Hmm, Sister Magpie, you are so pitiful. What have you experienced that made you unable to cry to your heart's content, and you have realized this great truth? I love you so much."

Fuzhu jumped off the small bench and ran into Chen Xi's arms, only to cry for her twice, remembering Chen Xi's vigilance and choked back, so he could only hug her tightly.

Chen Xi's old-fashioned words made Fuzhu's heart ache, and the more she thought about it, the more pitiful she felt.

Yu'er also walked over quickly, not knowing what to say, but she tried her best to hug them, pursed her lips, and expressed that she was always there, and she wanted to share weal and woe with them.

Chen Xi was amazed by the actions of the two of them. The weather in early spring started to turn cold, but being hugged by them felt extremely warm, and it was the warmth overflowing from the body and mind.

"Silly girl."

Chen Xi couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, and raised his hand to hold them both in his arms.

The original iceberg-like heart thawed a little.
