Reborn little girl

Chapter 11

The old woman who guards the gate is the most hopeless, she also knows Qi Luo is good, besides, the dime that Qi Luo gave is not too little, so she did not refuse, took the money with a smile and said: "Miss Xie I'm not going to cause trouble here, I'm fine anyway, girl, hurry up, your brother can't stay here for long, he doesn't have to be seen by others, everyone will follow along." She said, still very confident She winked back a little so that the brothers and sisters could talk.

Qi Luo hurriedly thanked her, and walked towards the door. Seeing that the lock on the door had been unlocked, she knew it was her mother's convenience, so she hurriedly opened the corner door and walked out. There was nothing outside. The main street is a corridor separated by the outer courtyard wall, from here the girls can go home or go to the outer courtyard along the corridor.

Although Bai Fangmu standing in the corridor is now a small shopkeeper, and his vision and knowledge are not as good as before, he still feels uncomfortable when he comes to this big mansion. The corridor was so wide and so deep, somehow he felt a little guilty, for fear of bringing harm to his sister.

After all, Bai Fangmu was just waiting for his younger sister at his aunt's house in the past, but this time his sister avoided his aunt's house and asked someone to send him a message to meet here. Thanks to Zhu Zhu's brother, he was able to come here smoothly , this matter is unusual everywhere, how can we not let Bai Fangmu, who has never seen the big world in the past, worry and worry?

Qi Luo went out to look, and saw her brother was pacing restlessly by the door with his hands curled up, knowing that he was afraid of being seen by others and causing her trouble, so he hurriedly called out 'brother' with red eyes.

When Bai Fangmu heard someone calling his brother, he hurriedly came back to his senses, and looked towards the slightly open door. When he saw his younger sister standing at the door with red eyes and smiling at him, Bai Fangmu was a double The father of the year-old child is still red, afraid of losing his composure, he quickly wiped his face, said 'ah', then looked at his sister with a happy smile and said: "Yunniang seems to have lost a lot of weight, but life is hard ?” (Bai Yunniang is Qi Luo’s name when she was at home)

After Fang Mu said this, he frowned, and saw that his younger sister was dressed plainly, which was nothing like the girls he saw just now. It was a good time, Fang Mu felt even more uncomfortable when he thought that she had asked someone to bring things and Yinzi home a while ago.

Fang Mu suddenly remembered that his younger sister was sold to save him and his father. Although she was sold to Niu Guogong's mansion, there was also an aunt who took care of her in the mansion, but as a slave, how can she not be burdened and wronged? How can he bear to save money to them!Thinking of this, Fang Mu's eyes turned red.

In fact, although Fang Mu's guess is right, even if life as a slave is easy, how can it be easier? Let's not talk about the little girls, let's take them as an example, although food and clothing are for the people in the house. Naturally, the face is not bad, but the servants are not tired. For example, if the masters do not rest when they should rest, you have to accompany them as a girl. For example, when it is cold, the masters are happy to stay in the pavilion Playing a little fun in the snow, as a girl, you have to wait for the master to protect and wait in the cold, and there are many things you can't help yourself.

However, Qi Luo's life is not too miserable. The reason why she always makes him feel plain and simple every time she sees her brother is because she thinks it is better to be plain and clean as long as she doesn't look shabby when she thinks that the clothes are not necessary. Although the wife likes people to dress up festively, it is for her children and grandchildren, and the eldest wife dislikes enchanting things the most. If she offends these two mountains for the sake of looking good, no one will benefit from it.

Eryi, Qiluo didn't want her brother to watch her live a very good life, so that her brother could think about taking her home. Of course, she also wanted to test her brother and they watched her live. Does he treat her differently?In one, no matter how much, she has to keep her cards for herself!If she has money or something, she still wants to keep some for herself. If she goes home to her parents, brothers and sister-in-law in the future, she will naturally have to find another way to make a living.

However, although Qi Luo thought well, seeing her brother with tears in his eyes and looking at her very distressedly, she felt a little sorry, so she hurriedly shouted again, 'Brother' so that Fang Mu could come back. god.

When Fang Mu heard his sister call his brother in a soft voice, he hurriedly said "Ai, Ai" twice, and walked towards Qi Luo, and he still had a bag in his hand.

Seeing her elder brother like this, Qi Luo hurriedly took over the burden, and said, "Brother, don't bring me things every time you come, I don't need anything, and I'm doing well, maybe a few years ago my life was difficult, but In the past few years, I have been the big girl in charge of the second master's courtyard, and I have the power in my hands, but I have no grievances at all, brother, don't worry."

Unexpectedly, Fang Mu was in a hurry when Qi Luo said this. He came this time with his parents' words, but seeing what his sister said, it seemed that he was willing to stay in the Duke's mansion, but although he said he was not happy with her sister As someone else's servant, I thought that my sister has ideas, and some things are better explained to her, so she hesitated and said: "Sister, you are seventeen this year, but what are your plans?"

When Qi Luo saw her brother asking this question, she was stunned for a moment, but she was relieved. Brother and the others must also remember that she will leave the mansion next year. If they don't ask now, it will be too late. But it's not close, and my brother doesn't wait for money and time to run back and forth, so he can only come once a year, that is, after the autumn harvest is over, this year because she brought the letter back, it is considered to be a little earlier.

Seeing her brother's anxiety and anticipation on his face, Qi Luo also felt a little anxious for a moment, she didn't know what was the reason for his brother's anxiety and expectation at this moment?Do you want her to stay?Or go home with your brother?

But at this moment, she couldn't allow her to test her brother anymore, so Qi Luo said directly: "Brother, do you have something to say when you come here today? I also have something to discuss with my brother, so I let a brother come to me first, so , Brother should talk first." Originally, Qi Luo wanted to say it first, but after thinking about it, she had to see her brother's attitude before she could decide what kind of mentality she would use to treat her family in the future.

Although Fang Mu is a bit clever, unfortunately, today he was a little dizzy from the arrogance in the Duke's mansion, and he didn't pay attention to the twists and turns in his sister's words. Seeing what his sister said, he hurriedly said: "Sister, Brother does have something to say, if there is something wrong, don't be angry."

Qi Luo couldn't help but her heart sank, she was afraid that what her brother said would embarrass herself, but when the matter came before her eyes, she still summoned up her courage and said with a light smile: "Brother just talk, sister listen, what's wrong with my brothers and sisters?" Angry talk."

Fang Mu got what his sister said, and hurriedly said: "Brother thought too much. If my sister hadn't sent me a letter this time, I would have come to look for my sister. Parents have made up their minds at home, and you are seventeen now." , when I sold you back then, my mother signed a 12-year contract of living, so my sister will be able to go home next year, I wonder what my sister is thinking?"

Although Qi Luo said that the brother who didn't listen said that she must let her go home, she felt a little regretful, but there was nothing wrong with his tone, so she smiled and asked: "Brother, let's not talk about what I think, but my sister Just ask, do you have enough money at home to redeem me?"

Hearing that his sister was worried about this, Fang Mu showed a simple and honest smile, nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, in fact, it was prepared at home a few years ago. Originally, my mother thought that there was an aunt in the mansion, so she asked her to go to the house with her." The old lady begged for mercy, and the family picked you up earlier, and it wouldn't delay my sister's return home to talk about marriage..."

Probably because she felt that it was a bit embarrassing for her brother to say this, Fang Mu couldn't help blushing and coughing a few times, but he couldn't stop when he said it, so he continued with an old face: "But aunt said , you have been assigned to the second master's yard, and you are also in charge of the affairs of the second master's yard. The second master is also favored. If we ask the old lady to let you go, even if the old lady doesn't let us let you go, at this moment There is no master who doesn't know the good and the bad, so the influence will be planted..."

After Fang Mu finished speaking, he took a peek at his younger sister, saw her face was calm, and couldn't see any expression. He was afraid that his younger sister would do it for themselves if they didn't come to redeem her, so he hurriedly explained: "It's not my brother and my parents. I'm afraid, but thinking that if the old lady doesn't let her go, it will be unfavorable for my sister in the future, so we listened to my aunt and honestly waited until the day came to pick up my sister. It's comfortable, so I endured it until today before I came to discuss with my sister."

It turned out to be like this, Qi Luo immediately sorted out the knots that could not be untied in the past, so what did my aunt say?Alas, that's all, I guess my aunt wanted to keep her, it must be for her own power and decency in the inner courtyard, and secondly, it must also be for the marriage between my cousin and her, it is useless to talk too much now, After all, parents and elder brother don't understand the twists and turns here.

However, Qi Luo felt that she didn't need to say much about her aunt's thoughts, but it was necessary to click, otherwise it would be bad for her brother and the others to be fooled by her aunt again. She always wanted to go back to her hometown in Jiangnan, not to mention this life She was born in the south of the Yangtze River and lived in that water village for six years. In her previous life, she was a pretty daughter of the Jiangnan water village. Compared with living in the bustling capital of the capital, she prefers the leisurely and comfortable life of the Jiangnan water village. .

And now that my elder brother has talked about this, Qi Luo is not hypocritical, so she said in a low voice: "Auntie is also timid, when will our house not release some old servants who have meritorious service or who have reached the age to come out?" Mansion, besides, where is there a shortage of servants in the mansion? I think if my brother came to ask earlier, the old lady would be able to agree, and I could go home to reunite with my parents earlier. Oh, forget it, the matter is over. Forget it, anyway, I will go home next year, but brother, my worth is not low! You can really get it all together? Don’t sell the land just because I redeemed me.”
