Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

Chapter 202 Lin Hai 65

Lin Hai looked at Chunxiu's cautious appearance, and thought to himself that it's better to get acquainted first and cultivate a relationship.They stayed Chunxiu to eat together, and Chunxiu waited on Lin Hai for lunch with trepidation, it seemed that he didn't eat well.Lin Hai had no choice but to send Chunxiu down to eat, and then asked her to come back to talk, let's adjust/teach her slowly.

"Does Chunxiu know how to read?"

"Master Hui, I don't know many characters. Three hundred thousand characters, I learned them when I was a child. Later, I embroidered Buddhist scriptures for my first wife, and I know some more." Chunxiu crossed his hands and folded them in front of his lower abdomen, neatly He half lowered his head and spoke.

The girls and boys in Lin's mansion all followed their parents to learn to read early, and those who could not read could not get good jobs when they entered the mansion.After several generations, it is really not easy to find an illiterate in the Lin Mansion.

"Can you write?"

"The original writing is not good. I haven't written any more in these years." Chunxiu was embarrassed and scared, so nervous that she was about to cry.The housemaid that the master wants must be able to read and write?

The wife chose the servants for sister Guiwen, and she thought that she was singled out to serve Guiwen.She is good at embroidery and leads the first-class monthly case in the embroidery room.When they reach the age of 20, parents ask the housekeeper to assign a servant in the mansion, or someone who has a reputation with the housekeeper, if they like her, they can go and ask the housekeeper to come out.Afterwards, she still worked in the sewing room, and it would be best if she slowly survived until she was able to become a nanny who taught others how to do sewing.You can go to serve in front of the pregnant Gui Ni, and then when you get married, Gui Ni will always help you with the conversation, and then you can choose a good steward or the steward's boy.

Her father and mother were happy that she could choose to go to the inner courtyard.Especially after entering the inner courtyard, she was chosen by his wife to serve tea by her side, so she was even happier.Mother hugged her to pray to Buddha, and told her that she had half a foot in the future to be able to serve her wife, so she should cherish it.As long as the wife is well served, the wife will definitely choose a decent and affordable family in the future. The wife has the final say on these matters.

She really didn't dare to think, dare to expect extravagantly, that the wife would pick her to be a housemaid and serve the master in the study.

The wife sent her to the study to serve, "Chunxiu, if you can let the master take you in, I will let you give birth to a son and a half daughter, madam. You see, Gui Ning has a body and moved to the inner courtyard to be a concubine." .If you can't let the master accept you, it will be difficult for the mansion to keep you anymore, so they can only match you to the farm boy in the village."

"Master, I don't embroider now, I can read and practice calligraphy every day." Chunxiu hurriedly expressed his opinion.

Lin Hai looked at Chunxiu's trembling and restrained state, got up and walked to the desk, "Come here, write a few words."

Chunxiu reached out to take the writing brush Lin Haisai gave her, her fair and delicate fingers, and her pink nails were round and full.Ten fingers like green onions, probably refers to such fingers.The Yanghaohu pen that Lin Hai was used to, looked out of place with this slender hand.

Chunxiu held the pen, hesitating about what to write, turned her face, glanced at Lin Hai's face, then lowered her head again.

"Write your name." This is also a woman whose eyes can speak.

Chunxiu shook her hands, and drew three horizontal strokes obliquely.Lin Hai couldn't see it, took the brush in Chunxiu's hand, and took another Zihao for her, "Practice with this first, the Zihao will be sharper, so it's easier to write."

A tear from Chunxiu fell on the paper, moistening and dyeing the three horizontal strokes.

"Hey, why are you crying?" Lin Hai was taken aback by Chunxiu's tears.

"Slave, slave," Chunxiu stammered and couldn't answer a word.

"Chunxiu, tell the truth, do you not want to come to the study? Do you not want to be a housemaid? If you don't want to, master, I will tell my wife to let you go back to the sewing room."

Chunxiu turned sideways, knelt down to Lin Hai, put her face on Lin Hai's thigh, and begged in a low voice: "Master, I will practice calligraphy well, master, please don't dislike me." If the master dislikes me, I can't go back to the sewing room.The kid who was about to be kicked out by his wife to work as a farmer in the countryside, Chunxiu became more and more nervous, and reached out to hug Lin Hai's leg.

"Get up and talk." Lin Hai stretched out his hand to pull Chunxiu.This girl, how can she kneel and hug someone like this...

Chunxiu grabbed Lin Hai and pulled her hand, "Master, I am willing to come to the study and serve the master. But I don't know how to read and write, and I will practice hard. I beg the master not to dislike the slave."

The girl's tears hit Lin Hai's hand drop by drop.

"Okay, okay, don't cry." It turned out that I was crying because I couldn't write.Alas, I thought that other girls disliked me as an old man. "If you cry again, I will dislike you. Get up, and the master will teach you how to write."

"Thank you, master." Chunxiu grabbed Lin Hai's hand and got up, took out the handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped away his tears, and then wiped Lin Hai's hand.

"Did you embroider this handkerchief?" A bright red, pink and tender peach blossom, with fine stitches, was lifelike, slanting in full bloom at the corner of the handkerchief, it was double-sided embroidery.

"Yes. The master looks okay? I will embroider the handkerchief for the master, okay?"

"Okay. Let's embroider some bamboo, men can use it."

"Yes. I will embroider with my heart."

The two talked for a while about embroidering handkerchiefs, and Chunxiu's mood eased.

"Chunxiu, it is necessary to read and write. The master will teach you to write, okay?" Lin Hai felt that he was the same as the wolf grandma who tricked Little Red Riding Hood.

Chunxiu was a little embarrassed for the tears she shed just now.Blushing, hold the pen as the master said.Lin Hai supported Chunxiu's hand holding the pen, and slowly taught it from horizontal to vertical.After writing the two words, the ears of the girl in her arms were all red.The faint and fragrant fragrance rushed straight to Lin Hai's heart and lungs. After writing a page, Lin Hai was a little distracted.

"Miss, master is writing inside."

Lin Hai quickly let go of Chunxiu, took the pen in Chunxiu's hand, and put it on the inkstone.Concentrating, turned around and looked at the door, "Yanyan is here, come in."

"Daddy, Daddy, I've written the process." Daiyu held up a few pages and brought in two maidservants.

"Really? Sir, have you read it?" Lin Hai took the few pages.

"Mr. has read it, and changed it a little bit. He said that he wanted Yan Yan to ask the housekeeper when the garden and greenhouse will be tidied up. It would be more appropriate to delay the flower viewing feast by a day or two."

Lin Hai took a look, it was really detailed, so Chunxiu sent someone to call Lin Qian.Chunxiu blushed, answered nonchalantly, and went out.

"Father, Chunxiu's face is so red, did she have a fever?" Daiyu knew that Gui Ni had a baby brother in her belly, so she moved to the inner courtyard, she was very happy that she would have another brother.

"Cough," Lin Hai gave a fake cough, "Chunxiu just came to serve in the study from the sewing room. It shouldn't be because she has a fever, but I'm sorry."

"Father, mother said that the spring embroidery women's red is very good, and she embroidered my previous dress."

"Really? Does Yan Yan like it?"

"I like it. My husband said that I want to learn from female celebrities too. Daddy, can I let Chunxiu teach me? She looks as gentle as Cousin Ying." Daiyu seldom mentions Jia Min, maybe because she forgot Yes, I still avoid it.

"Look at the arrangement of your mother and husband. There are better embroidery workers in the sewing room."

"Daddy wants Chunxiu to come to the study, what do you want to embroider?" the curious baby asked casually.

How should I talk to my daughter who still doesn't understand human affairs?Lin Hai was a little messy.Fortunately, Lin Cheng came in at this time.

"Master, Lin Qian took people to buy flowers and trees." Lin Cheng was called by Jia Amnesty early in the morning, and he returned to the mansion for a while.

"It's the big girl who wants to have a flower viewing feast. This is the schedule for the flower viewing feast. How long do you think it will take to tidy up the yard and the greenhouse? Big girl, please post a post to invite people."

"Master, the yard and the flower house can be tidied up quickly, just to see if Lin Qian can buy the right flowers. Why don't we wait for Lin Qian to return home and discuss with him, the younger one, before we talk back?"

"Okay. Yan Yan, how about waiting tonight?"

"Okay." Daiyu saluted Lin Hai and left with her maid.

"What does Marquis Rong Guo want from you?"

"Well, it's about the second cousin of the Zhang family. Last night, the same year the two young masters of the Zhang family were sent away from Beijing, the second cousin drank a little too much, so he didn't go back to the Imperial Academy and lived in Rongguo Mansion. Midnight There is a servant girl crawling on the bed."

Lin Hai's mouth is open enough to stuff an egg, and the maid crawls on the bed?This thing really happened?

"Why didn't you climb the boss? The boss is the champion."

Lin Cheng felt a little confused about his master's bizarre ideas.Shouldn't it be anger, asking how to deal with the maid?

"My lord, that maid was originally serving the eldest son of the Zhang family in the guest courtyard, but the eldest son did not court her. The second son usually likes to talk and joke, but yesterday he had wine and rested in the eldest son's yard, that maid will grow up." Courageous."

"What did Enhou say?"

"My uncle wanted to give someone to the second son, but the eldest son refused to accept it, and even knocked on the second son ten boards." Lin Cheng smiled, relying on following Lin Hai for many years, and continued: "The elder son said, the wine has drunk into your stomach Yes, so I can’t tell where I am and what I’m doing. I punish the second young master to copy the Heart Sutra and meditate.”

"What did Enhou ask you to do?"

"The eldest son asked the younger one to go. Ask the master to borrow Mingchuan and Mingxi."

"Oh." Lin Hai understood after thinking about it. "Borrow it, borrow it. You can choose two bookboys for me later."

"Yes."

"How did the maid handle it in the end?" Lin Hai wondered how Jia She would handle this matter.

"Master Hou is very angry. It seems that he feels that his face has been smeared. The little one didn't dare to ask, so he came back."

"I said that Jia's mansion hasn't been tidied up yet, and it's here. The rules are not deeply rooted in everyone's heart. You can take good care of the people in our mansion when you have time."

"Yes, master." Lin Cheng agreed with his master's words very much. Such a thing happened, it was too embarrassing.It would be fine if the second son of the Zhang family accepted him, but it would be embarrassing for Marquis Rong if the eldest son didn't accept him.

Lin Hai waved his hand and let Lin Cheng go down.Should I remind Jia Amnesty? Lin Hai hesitated, thinking about it and deciding to wait for a suitable opportunity.

Everyone left, the study room became quiet, and Lin Hai's charming thoughts were also disturbed.He took down the talisman sword hanging on the wall, and slowly pondered to see how he could pull out the sword.
