Gongsun Yu still looked at her suspiciously, and deliberately tried to say: "There is no need for anyone else in the house, but I do need a maid to serve in the bedchamber. If she is by my side, she only has this job."
Even though Gongsun Yu knew that Qi'er had no intention of becoming a maid, deep down in his heart he still wanted to dominate her life and wanted to know what her bottom line was.
Just by hearing the name, Qi'er knew it was not a good thing. The superior conditions of the Gongsun Mansion were naturally a great benefit to the girls in the mansion who wanted to be in power. At that time, men were superior to women, especially when they had power, but for Qi'er Embarrassed.
Qi'er was so shocked that he didn't speak for a long time. After thinking for a long time, he found a suitable reason and said slowly: "Now is the period of national mourning. You are an important minister appointed by the new emperor. How can you not avoid suspicion? It is not good to spread the word. "
Gongsun Yu said calmly: "I'm just looking for a maid to sleep with, and I'm not marrying a wife or having a concubine. What's wrong with that?"
"Gongsun Yu has a distinguished family and is a talented person. He has also reached the age of marrying a wife. The girls in the boudoir who are attracted to him all want to marry that handsome man in the eyes of thousands of people. It has been rumored that Gongsun Yu does not like women, and he is even more perfect. His image in the minds of those girls. Some said he was ill and was suspected, and he said he was not close to women and was perfect. It sounds contradictory, right? So the opinions were mixed.
Maybe it’s because it’s better to be lacking than to be extravagant. In this era of wives and concubines, even if a man gets married late, he will show some kind of behavior before marriage, right? For example, if he has a wife or concubine...the rumors outside are not good for Gongsun Yu. Did he find a maid to sleep with him to avoid rumors? Everyone said that he was not flirtatious with women, and outsiders even suspected that he was ill... But Netherworld Lotus lives in Yi'anju, and Yi'anju is where Gongsun Yu rests..." Qi'er secretly made various guesses but was not sure.
"A maid serving in bed?" Qi'er looked at Gongsun Yu with a slightly red face, unable to hide his embarrassment and shock. He hesitated and said naively: "I can't achieve such a high-level position, an ordinary maid can do it."
"Do you know the location of the maid?"
"Isn't it just serving tea and pouring water, cleaning tables and chairs?" He said as an excuse. In fact, he knew something about it. It was a slave life with no freedom, and people nowadays can't understand it at all.
"Do you think you can do whatever you want?"
Seeing Gongsun Yu's arrogant expression, Qi'er really wanted to turn around and leave, saying hello to his eighteenth generation ancestors, but he secretly said in his mind: "No, just bear with it, Netherworld Lotus still has to count on Gongsun Yu." Hold on. He clenched his fists to endure it, and tried to force a smile: "I'm just a maid, not your concubine."
"Concubines are in business, but maids are cheap."
"How come I'm involved in the business?" She whispered in shock, imagining that everything in the TV series was a lie?
"You... don't know?" Gongsun Yu asked in disbelief.
"I just want to be an ordinary maid." She explained angrily.
In fact, Qi'er wanted to beat Gongsun Yu. She clenched her fists and greeted him again, even though her ancestors for eighteen generations could not understand her hatred.
Qi'er suddenly remembered that her parents had tried so hard to please the teacher because of the mistakes they had made, so that the teacher would not embarrass their daughter. Qi'er's heart suddenly felt as uncomfortable as being tied up with a rope. She realized how difficult it was for her parents, and she longed to return to her parents. Only Nether Lotus was there to return to her parents.
Taking a deep breath to calm down, knowing that this was the only chance, Qi'er was struggling to think of how to agree. But why can't I say this? Where has the rogue behavior gone? I was struggling inside.
Gongsun Yu saw from Qi'er's shock that she was embarrassed and even a little shy and aggrieved. Still deliberately saying: "Where is my maidservant who can come whenever he wants?" The coldness in his words was very arrogant.
After hearing this, Qi'er felt an inexplicable anger in her heart. She gritted her teeth and secretly scolded Gongsun Yu: "Damn it, your sister, you've given me face, haven't you? A maid still dislikes me? You think I'm willing, bah!"
I cursed ten thousand times in my heart, but still smiled: "Isn't it easy to serve tea and pour water? Everyone can do it, right? Why can't I do it if I have both hands and feet?"
Gongsun Yu knew that the purpose of her lowering the conditions was to live in Yi'an, where Netherworld Lotus lived. If the maids who served in bed were all above board, would Qi'er really do it for Netherworld Lotus? Is her purpose a conspiracy? Cautiously watching Qi'er pondering. Deliberately asked: "Do you know what a bed maid is?"
Qi'er deliberately crooked and said, "It's just serving tea and pouring water, storing and tidying up the desk."
Gongsun Yu knew that she was crooked and said coldly: "This is just one of them, there are others." He stared at Qi'er.
Qi'er didn't dare to look at Gongsun Yu's glasses for a moment, turned around and pretended not to know: "Is it possible to wash and cook? Oh! By the way, my cooking is delicious."
Of course Gongsun Yu knew that she was not answering, so he deliberately said: "Nothing else?"
"What else is there? Mr. Yu is a dignified man. He looks like a true gentleman who stays calm in his arms. How can he still embarrass a little girl like me?" Seeing Gongsun Yu's silence, he suddenly thought that he played the piano very well and deliberately Said: "Bo Ya and Zhong Ziqi are good at playing and listening. We have never cooperated before, but it does not mean that we do not have the same tacit understanding. I also know music very well. By the way, Mr. Yu, I will play Buddha for you. Come on, even though it is a period of national mourning, Buddhist music can help purify the soul and transcend the souls of the dead." Seeing that Gongsun Yu still didn't answer, he asked flatteringly: "How about memorizing a scripture?"
Gongsun Yu still looked at her coldly, making Qi'er stare at him with slightly angry eyes.
After Qi'er cursed him ten thousand times in her heart, she couldn't help but praise him twice. It was really flattering and worth a thousand taels of gold.
"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, walking in the deep Prajnaparamita for a long time, saw that the five aggregates are empty, and survived all the hardships. Relics, form is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, form is emptiness, emptiness is form..." Qi'er recited skillfully, sometimes With a hint of tune, Qi'er memorized the entire text in one breath.
Luan Yue said in surprise: "This is a gift from a monk from abroad to the young master. Not to mention that my family doesn't know what it is after reading it, I'm afraid not many people in the country know what that book is. Qi'er, you just glanced at it and you actually knew it was a scripture." I can also recite the text."
Gongsun Yu is still surprised that she can actually memorize it? Who is she? I am also worried that I cannot find a suitable translator. I heard that Qi'er recited it very smoothly just now, and I felt a little bit greedy in my heart.
Seeing Gongsun Yu staring at him in confusion, thinking about how he got along with Gongsun Yu in the past, he felt uneasy. What if Gongsun Yu didn't agree? Trying to think of a solution.
Gongsun Yu did not express his feelings. Luan Yue next to her already knew that Gongsun Yu liked her, so she naturally wanted him to agree. But when Gongsun Yu didn't say anything, he became anxious.
Gongsun Yu asked Luan Yue to bring his piano and let Qi'er play it, saying, "Whether I can stay depends on your music."
Qi'er felt a little unhappy. If I had told you earlier, would I have memorized the scriptures in vain? Helpless, now I have to ask for help.
Qi'er sat next to a pine harp and thought to himself: My level is suitable for ordinary people to listen to. They all say that Gongsun Yu's music is superb, how can I fall into his ears? I regret not studying hard at first.
After thinking about it secretly for a long time, I came up with the idea of playing Zen music. Qi'er used to play it often for my grandfather, and I felt that the music was beautiful. Maybe he felt a little guilty in front of Gongsun Yu, but he was still confident that Gongsun Yu had never heard of this.
Gongsun Yu was really surprised by Qi'er's tune. Although it was not outstanding, the sound of the piano was soothing and calming. He looked at Qi'er again, and Qi'er looked at him nervously until Gongsun Yu said quietly: "Then stay."
Qi'er let go of her nervousness and whispered to herself: "It seems that my parents' insistence was right, and my years of hard study were not in vain."
Gongsun Yu was shocked when he saw what Qi'er said: "Studying hard for so many years? How can ordinary people have a chance? Who are his parents?"
Gongsun Yu looked at Qi'er's happy expression and suddenly said unconsciously: "Your words and deeds are too exaggerated. Your life in the house will not be as carefree as you used to be. What if there is a time when you disobey discipline in the future?"
Gongsun Yu wanted Qi'er to change his words and deeds first.
Before Gongsun Yu could say anything, Qi'er answered to himself: "From now on, if there is a strange smell in your mouth, you will not eat anything. From now on, you will not say anything you don't want to hear. From now on, you will not do anything you don't want to see." Seeing that Gongsun Yu didn't say anything, he continued. Said: "Can there be a trial period? After the trial period is over, how about you stay before you think I'm suitable?"
"Probation?"
"Yes! You can give me a few days to see how I perform and then make a judgment on whether I am suitable."
In fact, Qi'er just wanted to find something and felt that a few days were enough.
Gongsun Yu was curious about Qi'er's purpose and said deliberately: "Seeing that you are so sincere, should I give you a chance? Will you learn the rules in the first half of the year?"
In fact, Gongsun Yu's half year seems to have a deeper purpose. Half a year should be enough for Qi'er to change.
Qi'er said unhappily: "Ah! It takes half a year to establish the rules? Isn't it going to take that long to renovate?"
"You are quicker to turn your back than to read a book. I am afraid that the translator I am looking for has bad conduct and is not good for me." After speaking, he deliberately said arrogantly: "Just now, I wanted to agree to be my bedside maid. What I am looking for The maids who serve in bed also want to see if you are capable of the job? Who can come here whenever they want?"
After hearing this, Qi'er looked at Gongsun Yu angrily. Luan Yue knew that Qi'er had endured it and said kindly: "It's only been half a year since I've been open to you and Wang. Many little maids have been working as second-class maids." It will take several years to reach the first rank, and there is no chance to serve the young master."
Qi'er knew that Luan Yue's words were reasonable, but she didn't want to wait for half a year. She immediately promised that she would never embarrass Gongsun Yu and asked him to give her a chance. In fact, I wanted to beat Gongsun Yu to death in my heart.
Gongsun Yu saw her being so obedient and contradictory. He looked sincere on the surface and scolded himself many times inwardly. He thought about it for a long time and said, "Okay! Within one year, you will not only be the translator, but you will be responsible for my food and daily life from now on." But he did not say anything. It is revealed whether she is a maid serving in bed.
Qi'er secretly calculated her own little plan.
Gongsun Yu suddenly warned again: "Only the people in this room know about this agreement. To the outside world, you are just the translator of Gongsun Mansion." After thinking about it, he asked again: "What should I do if there is a time when I disobey discipline in the future?"
"If you don't believe it? I swear to God that I will abide by the rules every day in Gongsun Mansion. If I violate them, I will die!"
Seeing Qi'er's poisonous oath, Gongsun Yu felt deeply moved in his heart.
Qi'er smiled awkwardly and said: "Don't worry, I will never let you down! I am also a trustworthy person."
Luan Yue couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
Qi'er thought about what she had done before, and said calmly: "I used to do things that were not in line with etiquette, but if I promise someone, I can definitely do it. Don't look down on me?" After saying that, he looked at Luan Yue fiercely. .
Of course, Qi'er said she agreed to everything on the surface, and whether she should or not in the future was of course a matter for the future.
Qi'er said that Yi'anju was convenient and quiet, and suitable for translation. Gongsun Yu agreed after hesitating.
Qi'er thanked Gongsun Yu happily.
