Chapter 438
In order to avoid this kind of thing from happening, she thought about betrotting the two maids to the people in the house.She thought it was good for Xiaoyu to match Zhang Da, but she worried that it was just her wishful thinking.Zhang Da might be interested in Xiao Yu, but she really couldn't tell whether Xiao Yu was interested in Zhang Da, so she didn't point Xiao Yu to Zhang Da for a long time.As for Xiaojuan, she said all day long that she would eat meat with her and not marry, so she didn't dare to mess with the couples, so she could only procrastinate day by day.

Qingshu gave Xiaojuan a hateful look, suddenly he had an idea, called Xiaojuan to him, and whispered something to Xiaojuan.

After Xiaojuan listened, she stared at the boss, "Miss, this, this..."

Qing Shu glared at her, "What is this, why don't you go to work soon?"

Xiaojuan hesitated, looking around like a thief.There was no one else in the room except her and the young lady.But she was still worried, and asked in a very low voice, "Miss, if you tell the servant to lie, the servant will tell. But, what if the servant makes Xiaoyu cry?"

Qing Shu said angrily, "I asked you to find out her true thoughts, but I didn't want you to make her cry. Stop talking nonsense and go to work quickly."

Xiaojuan looked tangled, and asked carefully, "Miss, slave, slave finds Mama Su and asks Mama Su to help me out, will it work?"

Qing Shu has no objection to this, "You can figure it out. Hurry up and confess to such a small matter, and you will be embarrassed like this. It seems that Miss Ben can't count on you for anything in the future, alas!"

Qingshu's helpless sigh made Xiaojuan nervous, she said hastily, "Young maidservant will be able to handle it well, young lady don't worry and wait for the good news", and she has already left.She stood in the courtyard for a while, but she couldn't wait for the little fish who went to the kitchen to get something to come back.She stomped her feet, went to the embroidery room and called Mama Su to come out, and they stood in a place where no one was around and whispered for a while.

It has to be said that middle-aged and elderly women are quite enthusiastic about being matchmakers and bringing young men and women together.Su's mother enthusiastically advised Xiaojuan, and finally told Xiaojuan that if the trick that the young lady came up with didn't work, she could come to her, and she could find another way.

Xiaojuan got advice from Mother Su, and confidently went to the kitchen to find someone.However, Xu Sanniang told her that Xiaoyu had already gone back after taking the rice noodle oil he needed.She hurried back to look for it, but saw that Xiaoyu was about to go out with a food basket, she hurriedly asked, "Sister Xiaoyu, where are you going?"

Xiaoyu replied softly, "On the way back, I met a few young masters. The young masters said they were hungry and wanted to eat the snacks made by the lady to fill their stomachs. No, they are about to send some over there."

Xiaojuan thought that this matter was more important, so she didn't stop her and asked Xiaoyu to deliver the snacks.

Qingshu came out after hearing the news, "Don't be in a hurry, you can talk about it tonight or tomorrow." She handed out a folded note, "Send it to the housekeeper, and hand it to the housekeeper. If the housekeeper is not here, just take it back." .”

Xiaojuan agreed, took the things and hurried to look for Butler Gu.

Zhuangzi sent a cart of straw for fire today, and two carts of dry branches of different thicknesses.All the firewood is unloaded on the side of the firewood room.Steward Gu followed to see, and he was standing and talking with Steward Wu.Xiaojuan came over and gave the note to Steward Gu.

Steward Wu stepped aside and talked to the man who unloaded the truck.Steward Gu opened the note to read it, kneaded it into a small ball, greeted Steward Wu, took two buns with coarse grain noodles from the kitchen, and came to the back door.

As soon as the small corner door at the back door of the ancient mansion was opened, several beggars lying in the back alley looked over, and then one of them got up, came to beg with a broken bowl in his hand, kept bowing and bowing, and asked the master to give him leftovers wait.

The butler Gu didn't interrupt, and said in a low voice, "After three days, let fifty or so people go to the thousand-acre wasteland one after another, and the rest will go there every three or two days. They all wear big shoes and put them together." Report it." After the news was conveyed, he put two coarse-grain flour buns into the beggar's bowl, turned around, and closed the corner door.

The beggar who got the buns thanked the closed corner door, "Thank you, master, thank you for your kind master." Then he returned to his companions, sat around, and broke the two coarse-grain flour buns into several pieces with his dark hands. The pieces were shared and eaten, and the work was also assigned.Two beggars grinned as they looked at the black and tattered open-toed shoes on their feet.

On this day, Xiaojuan didn't find a chance to talk privately with Xiaoyu until she went to bed late.

Xiaojuan was lying in her quilt, with her chin resting on the pillow and looking at Xiaoyu who was about to go to bed, "Sister Xiaoyu, someone from Zhuangzi came to deliver firewood today, I overheard a few words, I don't know if it's true or not .” Seeing that Xiaoyu was about to blow out the oil lamp, he hurriedly stopped him, “Don’t turn it off yet, I’m going to go down to the ground to drink water later.”

Xiaoyu hung the clothes he took off on the hanger, got into bed on the kang, and then answered, "What did you hear?"

Xiaojuan leaned over with a mysterious face, and whispered, "The people in Zhuangzi seem to be talking about Brother Zhang."

Xiaoyu tightened his hands under the quilt, and just let out a soft oh.

"I didn't hear it very clearly, I only heard the general idea. However, this is enough. From what they said, it seems that there is a family in a village near Zhuangzi who gave birth to six girls and one son. There are so many, it seems that the big girl in this family looks pretty good, and the parents intend to promise this girl to Zhang Da, and the dowry is not too much, it seems to be just a few bags of grain. By the way , Listen to what they said, prepare that Miss Xu's family is looking for a matchmaker for marriage!"

The little fish closed his eyes and lay motionless.

Xiaojuan stared at her face, stretched out her hand to push her, "Sister Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you? Why are you ignoring me?"

Xiaoyu turned his back and whispered, "No, I didn't ignore you."

"Then how do you..."

"It's okay, I'm just sleepy and don't want to talk." Xiaoyu said this sullenly, biting his lip and closing his eyes tightly.

Xiaojuan scratched her head, sat up, and leaned over to see what happened.Coincidentally, Xiaoyu pulled the quilt over her head, and Xiaojuan didn't see anything.

Xiaojuan began to struggle, did she fail in her temptation?What should I do?No, I have to say something, I can't just leave it at that. "Sister Xiaoyu, in my opinion, Brother Zhang is interested in you, and he won't fall in love with the girl from that family, really."

A muffled sentence came from under the quilt, "No nonsense."

"Where am I talking nonsense? You see, that time when you had an accident, you were arrested, and you shouted for help in the car. Brother Zhang passed by and recognized your voice at once, and then chased you for a long distance. I saved you. If Big Brother Zhang wasn't interested in you, how could he pay attention to you, and how could he hear your voice?"

The man with the head covering fell silent.
