"Lao Qi, come here~" While chatting, my sister-in-law Wu Peifang shouted.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan rushed over and said, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter?"
"Do I have to come to you if something happens?" Wu Peifang said with a smile.
"Of course not." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, please tell me, are you a good partner and want me to join in?"
"Not really." Wu Peifang waved her hands, "I really have something to ask you, and I hope you can agree."
"Sister-in-law, why are you so polite?" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "If you have any questions, just ask me. As long as I can do it, I will do it without any hesitation."
"What do you think of this girl Xiao Lian? Is she still smart?" Wu Peifang didn't rush to talk, but asked first.
"Xiao Lian was trained by my sister-in-law. It is said that a strong general has no weak soldiers, so it is naturally excellent." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"In that case, I'll let her serve you, okay?" Wu Peifang said immediately.
Xiang Nan's smile froze, then waved her hands and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be ridiculous, a gentleman does not take away someone's love. Xiao Lian is your personal maid, how can I let her serve me."
"To tell you the truth, I don't intend to keep Xiao Lian by my side." Wu Peifang shook her head.
"Why, don't I think you have a good relationship?" Xiang Nan said in surprise, "Even if she does something wrong, if you scold her once, she will never do it a second time."
"So, you are protecting her?" Wu Peifang smiled.
"Why am I protecting her again? I'm just telling the truth." Xiang Nan said in confusion, "I really don't understand what she did wrong. You have to send her away."
"Fool, don't you even know the saying 'women are not allowed to stay in college'?" Wu Peifang shook her head.
"Sister-in-law, is it my eldest brother..." Xiang Nan asked.
He knew that Jin Fengju had been plotting against Xiao Lian, but Wu Peifang didn't want to follow his wish.
"You don't have to worry about it..." Wu Peifang's face turned pale and she waved her hands quickly, "Anyway, do you want to do this for me?"
"This..." Xiang Nan looked embarrassed, "I'm not married yet, how can I let the maid serve me? If my father and mother find out, they will definitely scold me."
According to the rules of the Jin family, the young master only has servants to serve him, but no maids. He is afraid that the young master knows his lust and admires Shao Ai, and wants to take advantage of the maids around him. I am also afraid that the maid may have evil intentions and deliberately seduce the young master, thereby ruining the Jin family's family tradition.
"I'll take care of father and mother." Seeing his hesitation, Wu Peifang immediately added.
"But..." Xiang Nan still hesitated.
"You just said that as long as you can do it, you will do it without any excuse. It turns out you were just talking big words to coax me." Seeing this, Wu Peifang said with a straight face.
"Okay, okay, if father and mother agree, then I will accept Xiao Lian." Xiang Nan smiled.
He estimated that Mrs. Jin would not agree. After all, the ancestral rules cannot be broken.
"This is my good seventh brother." Wu Peifang just smiled and said, "Come to my place for dinner and I will treat you to dinner."
…
But then, I don’t know how Wu Peifang persuaded Jin Quan and Mrs. Jin, but they finally allowed Xiao Lian to serve Xiang Nan.
This surprised Xiang Nan.
"Yan Xi, although Xiao Lian is here to serve you, you can't act recklessly." Mrs. Jin warned, "Otherwise, look at what I told your father."
"Mom, I have always regarded Xiao Lian as my younger sister, how could I do this?" Xiang Nan said aggrievedly, "Besides, I didn't ask my sister-in-law for it, she forced it on me. If you are worried, let Xiao Lian Go and serve the eighth sister."
"Okay, I'll just say one thing, and you have ten more waiting for me." Mrs. Jin waved her hand, "Xiao Lian is a very smart person, so I can rest assured that she will serve you."
"Yes, mother." Xiang Nan nodded.
"Xiao Lian, you will follow the seventh brother from now on. Although the seventh brother has a good temper, he is always sympathetic and will never get angry with you, but you must also be careful. Otherwise, you will lose face and I will lose face too." Wu Peifang also told Xiao Lian Lian said.
"We are master and servant after all, and I have always regarded you as my sister. If you leave now, I have nothing else to give you. This beaded chain is my favorite thing, I will give it to you, please keep it in mind .”
With that said, she put a string of pearl necklaces into Xiao Lian's hands. This beaded chain is worth at least fifteen hundred oceans.
"Young lady, this is too expensive. Please take it back quickly. I can't have it." Xiao Lian quickly refused.
"You accept it." Wu Peifang insisted, "Xiao Lian, you are a good boy. If it weren't for the eldest young master's confused thoughts, how could I be willing to give you to Lao Qi. Speaking of which, I owe you of."
"Young lady, please don't say that." When Xiao Lian heard this, she burst into tears.
"Okay, okay, don't cry." Wu Peifang took out a handkerchief, wiped away her tears and said, "Actually, it's good for you to go to Lao Qi's place. He was not very motivated before, but recently, he has become very He's making progress, so it won't be aggrieved if you follow him."
"Young Mistress~" Xiao Lian suddenly became shy again after hearing what she said.
"Okay, I'll take you there." Wu Peifang smiled, and then brought Xiao Lian to Xiang Nan's room.
"Lao Qi, I will leave Xiao Lian to you. You are not allowed to bully her, otherwise I will not be able to spare you." Wu Peifang said.
"This is really a huge injustice. I was kind enough to help, but you threatened me like this." Xiang Nan yelled, "Since you are afraid that I will bully Xiao Lian, you should take her back."
"Stop being so talkative." Wu Peifang said with a smile.
Xiang Nan nodded, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I have always regarded Xiao Lian as my younger sister, so how could I bully her?"
"Yes." Wu Peifang nodded, and then told Xiao Lian, "Xiao Lian, take good care of your seventh brother from now on. If he bullies you, come to me and I will definitely help you get justice."
"Yeah." Xiao Lian blushed with embarrassment and responded like a mosquito.
…
Later, Xiang Nan moved a room for Xiao Lian next to his study.
The room was originally used to store miscellaneous items. It was fifteen or six square meters wide, which was enough to accommodate Xiao Lian.
"I don't have that much to do, and I won't call you often. If you have time, you can read more books and newspapers to broaden your knowledge." Xiang Nan told her, "You can also go out for a walk. Make some friends. You are so beautiful and literate, but you are nothing more than a young lady from a middle-class family.
It's really unfair to ask you to be a maid. If you are destined to meet a lovely person in the future, I will not force you to stay. When the time comes, I will marry you off just like I married my sister. "
"Seventh Young Master..." After hearing this, Xiao Lian felt grateful and shy at the same time.
In fact, when the eldest mistress sent her here, she had already made a decision in her heart.
The seventh young master is not only young, handsome and talented, he is also easy-going, gentle and courteous to his servants. So she was actually willing in her heart,
Now that she heard Xiang Nan's words, she felt even more profound.
