After Li Shu and the little maid Baozi laughed, two little maids brought tea on small tea trays and invited Zhu Ping'an and Li Shu to have tea. Against the backdrop of the white bamboo tea cups, the color of the tea soup became more and more obvious.
Emerald green and rich aroma.
These two little maids are not very old, only about ten years old, and their childishness has not faded away, but they are already familiar with tasks such as serving tea and pouring water. At this age, this is exploiting child labor, but in this dynasty it was
It's perfectly normal. The girl is easy to train when she's young. If she's younger, she won't be able to work. If she's older, she'll be married soon. It's fine if she's given a servant boy, but if she's married off, she'll belong to someone else's family and she'll have to serve her.
Before long, the age will be just right.
"Thank you."
Zhu Ping'an was never used to being served by others, so he took the tea cup and said thank you.
After the two little maids heard Zhu Ping'an say thank you, their round cheeks were red and their heads were drooped. They were a little at a loss and said that you don't need to thank me.
Li Shu glanced at the two girls, then looked at Zhu Ping'an and said with a smile, "My husband doesn't have any girls to serve him yet. Why don't we let these two girls serve him tea and make the bed?"
Ahem
Zhu Ping'an was sipping tea. He choked after hearing Li Shu's words and coughed before calming down.
"Thank you, no, I'm used to being alone, but I'm not used to being served by others." Zhu Pingan refused without thinking. He had hands and feet, so why should he be served by others? He was still two child laborers. He didn't have any hobbies.
.
"A sixth-grade official doesn't have girls or servants to serve him, so he won't be afraid of being laughed at by his colleagues if he tells it." Li Shu looked at Zhu Ping'an with a half-smile, her big watery eyes as bright as the stars in the sky.
"Not afraid." Zhu Pingan shook his head indifferently.
"It's true that a dog bites Lu Dongbin and doesn't know a good heart." Li Shu's eyebrows were arched, her little nose was slightly turned up, she made a sweet sound, and then gave Zhu Ping'an a roll of her eyes.
Seeing her young lady chatting with her uncle, the little maid Baozi glanced at the two little girls and waved her hands slightly, signaling them to leave and not to disturb the chat between the young lady and her uncle. The two little girls saw the gesture of the little maid Baozi,
They both bowed and stepped back with winks.
In the eyes of the two little girls, Little Maid Baozi is half of their master.
The status of Little Maid Baozi in the family is not low, especially the status has been improved recently. Now Little Maid Baozi is not only Li Shu's personal maid, but also the maid. Li Shu has four personal maids, including Little Maid Baozi.
, but there is only one maid in the common room, Baozi maid, this is decided by the family.
The maidservant is between the aunt, that is, the concubine, and the maidservant. Her status is slightly lower than the concubine, but higher than all the maidservants.
After the tongfang girl has the title, she is a concubine. Although the tongfang girl does not have the title yet, in some aspects, she does the same things as the concubine, but she does not have the title yet.
The Tongfang girl literally means the girl who is in the Tongfang room. In ancient times, the bedroom of the Tongfang girl was connected with the bedrooms of the male and female masters. When the male and female masters were doing some boudoir fun, the Tongfang girl could serve on the side.
And if the mistress asks, she can also join in a threesome together. Of course, in ancient times, it was probably not so open. More often, when the mistress was menstruating, the maid would do some bed duties for the mistress.
.
The dowry girls and the maids who live in the same house are two different things. Now all the girls in this house are dowry girls, and the girls brought over by Li Shu are all dowry girls. But the maid in the house is only Baozi maid.
Therefore, Baozi's little maid can be said to have the highest status in the house besides Zhu Ping'an and Li Shu.
Li Shu hurriedly came out of the house just now, and it had been a while now. She was worried that her mother Chen would miss her, and it was estimated that there would be people at home to see the new daughter-in-law. How could it be that the new daughter-in-law was not here, so after drinking tea, Li Shu went to Zhu Ping'an with
We went back to the opposite house together.
At this time, the little maid Baozi originally wanted to follow, but Li Shu refused to let her go, saying that there was no one to serve her at home. It was too arrogant for her to bring the girl there, and the distance was in vain. Therefore, Li Shu asked the little maid Baozi to stay.
In this house, I happened to assign a maid to tidy up the house.
The two houses are right next to each other, and you can reach them in just three or five steps.
When he returned home, he found that there were indeed many women from the village at home. His mother, Mrs. Chen, was talking to them in a lively manner. She was probably showing off again. Zhu Pingan couldn't help but smile when he saw this. Zhu Pingan knew all these women.
, he stepped forward with a smile and said hello, calling out names one by one and introducing them to Li Shu. Li Shu also followed suit and called out sweetly.
After this group of people left, the house finally became quiet. Mother Chen asked Zhu Pingan to lead Li Shu around the house. Because the house was much larger than when they left, Zhu Pingan also took the opportunity to take Li Shu to the backyard to see it.
look.
In this backyard, the family originally planned to build a wedding house for Zhu Ping'an and Li Shu. However, the rich man Li felt sorry for the girl and felt that the space was a little too small. After discussion, he built a new house opposite the door.
Now the backyard is conveniently used to open a vegetable plot and a pig pen, and the remaining space is also used to raise some flowers and plants.
The green vegetables and colorful flowers give people an overwhelming feeling of spring.
Several fat pigs with black and white flowers in the pigsty saw someone entering the backyard and thought they were coming to feed them. They all lay on the pigsties with their trotters stretched out and hummed eagerly towards Zhu Ping'an who came first.
Get up and get excited.
However, a few tall flowers were planted in front of the pig pen, which stood out against the plump and cheerful pig's head, making it particularly joyful.
"Look, look, your relatives are greeting you." Seeing this, Li Shu couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle.
"If I didn't marry you, how could I be related to them?" Zhu Pingan said leisurely without looking back.
"You're boring and stingy" Li Shu pouted and complained.
Well, it seems you were the one who said it first. Hearing Li Shu's scolding, Zhu Ping'an was speechless.
"Hey, Zhu Pingan, you have to let me go from now on." Li Shu walked up to Zhu Pingan, raised her pretty face and said seriously.
"Why?" Zhu Pingan glanced at Li Shu.
Zhu Pingan thought that this girl would rely on what her mother Chen said at noon, or that she would use the island to feed blood to save her life. However, Li Shu's answer was far beyond Zhu Pingan's expectations.
"You are five feet two, and I am only five feet tall. When you talk to me, you have to bow your head first, just like now."
Li Shu raised her pretty face with a smile, stretched out her slender jade fingers and pointed at Zhu Ping'an's lowered head. Her dark eyes were as black as ink, and her face was full of the naughty look of an elf.
This distance adds a bit of charm. (To be continued.)
