Sheng Anqing didn't sleep long. When she felt something touching her face, she woke up with a startle.
When she woke up, she realized that at some point, the two maids had already tied up her hair and were playing with her face.
It's so troublesome... Although she doesn't have to do it herself, as a passive person, Sheng Anqing still finds it troublesome.
Taking a look at Tongling, the girl in the mirror is still childish. She has two round little balls on her head, one on the left and one on the right. There are also some thin braids hanging down on the sides of the ears and under the balls, which makes her look naughty.
And cute.
Not to mention that the maid was so skillful that she even put on a light make-up, which made her skin look smooth and tender.
Sheng Anqing waved her hand to stop the maid's hand that was about to put makeup on her face. Sheng Anqing let out a small yawn and then turned her attention to the two people behind her.
"I can't quite remember, what are your names?"
Chunhe was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, he hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"Miss, my name is Chunhe."
The other maid was also a little surprised, but she was not stupid. When she saw her sister kneeling down, she quickly followed suit.
"My name is Xia Lian."
Sheng Anqing slowly played with a delicate and small round box on the table without making a sound.
The two people kneeling on the ground were immediately frightened.
Although the eldest lady usually has a bad temper and gets angry easily, she is kind to them when she is in a good mood and throws various rewards to them casually. When she is in a bad mood, she can beat and scold them for any reason.
They have been following such an eldest lady for three full years. They would not be surprised if they could not remember the names of others, but there is no way that the eldest lady would not remember their names!
With a slight tremor in their hearts, the two of them knelt on the ground in despair, fearing that because of something they had done wrong, the eldest lady didn't want them anymore, so they casually found an excuse to drive them out.
A thin cry came out, and Sheng Anqing looked down and saw that it was Xia Lian who was crying. After all, she was younger and not as calm as her sister.
Hearing Xia Lian cry, Chunhe's heart trembled. She quickly kowtowed to Sheng Anqing and begged for mercy for her sister tremblingly.
"Miss Xia Lian, please don't blame her for being ignorant. If she makes her unhappy, I will take her down and give her a good punishment!"
Let her take her down, maybe it's not that serious. If the eldest lady decides to do it herself on a whim, then Xia Lian will be lucky if she lies in bed for three to five days.
After hearing Chunhe's words, Sheng Anqing started to pay some attention to it.
I didn't expect that my casual words would frighten these two people like this.
How cruel was the original owner?
Walking towards the door, Sheng Anqing said slowly: "Get up, I told you, don't kneel all the time. I am not a man-eating tiger! Just ask me casually, don't take it to heart!"
Feeling the footsteps gradually receding, the two people kneeling on the ground dared to raise their heads. They helped each other stand up, and both saw happiness in each other's eyes.
Miss Xu is in a good mood today...
Thinking about it, Chunhe patted Xia Lian on the head hard and said angrily: "Why were you crying just now? If you make the eldest lady unhappy, neither of us can escape a punishment!"
Xia Lian pursed her lips and did not retort. She just gently rubbed the place where she was knocked and muttered: "I'm just afraid that the eldest lady won't want us anymore. I couldn't help myself when I thought of this possibility..."
Hearing this, Chunhe didn't say anything more and just sighed silently.
Why isn't she like this?
After staying with the eldest lady for several years, although the eldest lady sometimes punishes them when she is angry, she treats them differently from other slaves.
The eldest lady has a bad temper. If others make her unhappy, she will basically not survive the next day.
She was the only one, and although she would also be punished, the most she could do was to be pulled down and beaten with a few sticks, and the pain would last for three to five days after the beating.
The most common time was that they lay in bed for half a month, but that time it was because they did not watch the eldest lady on the street, and the eldest lady was almost trampled by a galloping horse. She deserved the punishment...
The two of them were whispering in the room, but they didn't know that Sheng'an was listening to everything they said.
Sheng Anqing walked out of the room, listened to what her two maids said in her heart, and had some ideas in her mind.
It's hard to tell that despite being treated like this by the original owner, these two people are still loyal.
Thinking miscellaneously, Sheng Anqing walked out of the courtyard door and paused suddenly.
She looked at the man kneeling on the steps outside the yard with a confused look on her face. She was dumbfounded.
This...what kind of plot is this??
Neither walking nor listening, Sheng Anqing stared at the silent man with his head lowered, his mind running rapidly.
Although she didn't know the plot, she could guess that this man was kneeling outside the eldest lady's yard. Either he had something to ask for, or he was... being punished.
Which one is it?
Sheng Anqing frowned and suddenly walked up to the man.
Seeing a pair of small embroidered shoes hidden in a large outer robe, the man's lowered head trembled. For a moment, he slowly raised his head.
The moment she saw his face clearly, Sheng Anqing was stunned again.
The man was only wearing a single suit in this freezing weather. Perhaps because he had been kneeling for a long time, his complexion turned purple, and his lips were no longer as rosy as they should have been, and instead glowed a deep purple.
Sheng Anqing had no doubt that if he knelt down again, he would probably freeze to death here.
But this was not a reason for her to be stunned.
If you can make a handsome person stunned, then of course it’s your looks!!
Although the man in front of him had a bad look on his face, it still couldn't stop him from being handsome.
Just handsome!
Her face seemed to have been carefully carved by Nuwa, her thick but not messy eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her eyes were not ordinary black. There seemed to be a faint purple light in the black. When she raised her head and looked at Sheng Anqing,
There is a hint of vulnerability in the coldness that is not easy to detect.
With his thin lips pursed tightly, the man glanced at Sheng Anqing silently and lowered his head again.
Sheng Anqing came back to her senses and chuckled. No matter why the man was kneeling, since he was outside his yard, it must have something to do with him.
It happened that at this time, the two sisters Chun and Xia Lian, who had finished whispering, packed up the things in the house and walked out.
As soon as they arrived in the yard, they saw the door open and Sheng Anqing standing on the steps. Their expressions changed, and they quickly ran forward, glared at the man kneeling on the ground, and then looked at Sheng Anqing's pink and tender face.
He pressed his cheek, stepped forward and carefully pulled off her clothes to ensure that the young lady would not be frozen by the cold wind, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the man on the ground again.
"Why are you still kneeling here? Did you die outside the eldest lady's yard on purpose to bring bad luck to this place?!"
