"The wolfberry, chrysanthemum, and cassia seeds can be mixed separately. Don't put them all into the cup. The taste is too weird!" Sheng Yuan shook the teapot with an expression that was hard to describe. She just took a small sip, but it made her vomit. A long while.
When Xiaoyao heard the sound, he was extremely surprised: "Impossible! I only put wolfberry and chrysanthemum, and I am planning to add some osmanthus honey."
"Look, there are so many cassia seeds in here!" Sheng Yuan opened the tea lid and showed it to Xiaoyao.
Xiaoyao looked over and looked a little confused. He murmured: "This...can't be done! I remember clearly that I didn't take the cassia seeds. Even the green bamboo leaves you want to put in, you took them yourself."
"!!!" Sheng Yuan lowered her head suddenly and quickly opened the desk drawer. She saw several palm-sized exquisite porcelain jars neatly placed inside, among which a celadon jar with a round lid that was not tightly closed stood out.
Sheng Yuan blinked and opened the small blue and white porcelain jar next to it with trembling hands. Immediately, the unique aroma of bamboo leaf green tea came to his nostrils: "..."
"Ah... I was too engrossed in reading just now." Sheng Yuan closed the celadon lid with a smile and pushed the drawer in smoothly.
Xiaoyao was suddenly stunned when he saw this, and shook his head helplessly.
Ever since she entered Dali Temple, her young lady has developed the habit of never letting go of the scroll, and now she is even more immersed in it.
"Miss, you'd better leave it to me to add sugar to the tea in the future! This time it's Cassia seeds. Next time, I'm afraid you'll throw the ink in!" Xiaoyao sighed, picked up the teapot and walked out. , she was going to make Sheng Yuan a pot of mint honey tea to boost her energy.
Sheng Yuan looked at Xiaoyao's walking back and stuck out her tongue guiltily.
Speaking of which, since she was born, the maids in the courtyard have changed several times. They either got married and changed jobs, or they redeemed themselves and left the house when they were old enough.
For those maids who left, Shengyuan arranged a generous silver reward as a thank you for taking care of them while on duty.
Originally, this girl Xiaoyao should have discussed marriage a long time ago. As a maid who has been with Shengyuan since she was a child, Shengyuan took her seriously and even prepared to return her body deed and give her a small official position. Prepared.
As a result, this girl not only refused to agree, but actually combed her hair without telling her!
"Since I was a child, I have grown up in a wealthy land with my young lady, followed my young lady to read and learn, and followed my young lady to learn martial arts... Although I am still ignorant most of the time, I know very well that I am impatient to deal with those mundane things.
The slaves also had a few handkerchiefs, but after those little sisters left the house and started a family, they looked harmonious in front of others, but they were mostly useless behind the scenes. Even the husband's family had few things to do, and they were mostly restrained. Instead of serving those idiots, it would be better to stay with the lady for a long time.
The young lady is a person with great ambitions. Although my ability is limited, I still want to take advantage of the young lady’s east wind to see the beautiful scenery of the world. It is said that the seventh-ranking official in front of the prime minister cannot predict the future, and slaves are also the objects of court officials vying to please! "
Hearing Xiaoyao's words, Sheng Yuan was not only not moved, but was shocked.
She was used to being the youngest in the family. She was usually pampered by her elders and manipulated by her brothers and sisters. She never thought that one day she would be responsible for a person's life!
Such a burden is too heavy! She wants to run away!
"Miss, you aspire to be the head of an official. The country, the country, and the people all need to be shouldered by you. How heavy is it to be a slave to a weak woman?"
Sheng Yuan had never noticed that his Xiaoyao was so eloquent, and his head felt swollen.
In the end, it was her mother who spoke, asking Xiaoyao to follow first, but if she changed her mind, the family would naturally make arrangements for her, and then "return her body, donate her official position, and dowry" all at once to her.
Such a result made Xiaoyao extremely excited.
Seeing this, Shengyuan could only accept it. After a few days, she picked two shops from her property and gave them to Xiaoyao as private property: "Keep them, so that if you want to do it in the future, you can have them in your own hands." A dowry; if you don’t want to change it, you have such a body, you don’t have to worry about it even when you get old.”
From that time on, the employment model of "iron Xiaoyao and flowing maid" began around Sheng Yuan.
