Taoye was still surprised that the fifth young master was picking up food for her again, when a slightly familiar voice sounded outside.
"I heard that Miss Taoye was injured in the paddock and it must be inconvenient to serve the fifth young master. Brother Xingyun, please let us sisters go in and serve!"
Taoye already knew who the visitor was.
There was no reaction on his face, he just put the dish Rong Jiu had just picked up into his mouth.
"Let them in!"
Rong Jiu lazily ordered.
"Yes, Master!"
Xingyun at the door stepped aside.
"I've met the fifth young master!"
The two came in with joy on their faces and bowed to Rong Jiu shyly.
From the corner of Taoye's eyes, she saw Qingmei fidgeting with her Shu brocade dress intentionally or unintentionally.
"Let's prepare the dishes!"
Rong Jiu didn't even raise his head and gave an instruction casually.
"yes!"
What surprised Taoye was that Qingmei actually walked behind him.
"Just tell me what you want to eat, girl!"
The smile on that face was extremely humble and a little flattering, but after not seeing each other for a few days, his temper changed?
"I don't dare bother the girl, I can do it myself!"
Qingmei and Qingxing were specially sent by the queen to serve the fifth young master. She did not dare to let them serve. Moreover, the memory of the bowl of hot soup last time was still there. She was inconvenient now and did not want to add to the injury.
Now I just hope that these two will serve the fifth young master wholeheartedly and don't torment themselves.
"Since someone is serving you, just accept it!"
Rong Jiu lazily spoke.
"That's right, why do girls need to meet our sisters?"
Taoye felt funny in her heart. It was really easy for Qingmei to speak of a sister.
After the master spoke, Taoye enjoyed Qingmei's service with peace of mind. However, she was a little more distracted during the meal, but Qingmei didn't have any problems from beginning to end this time.
Instead, he concentrates on serving the food. Wherever he looks, the dish will appear in his bowl the next moment.
After dinner, Qing Xing served tea to the two of them.
"Those are all given to you, go down and use them!"
Rong Jiu glanced at the food box that had just been packed on the ground.
"Slaves thank your master!"
Any unused meals in the Gaomen Mansion will be given to respectable servants in the courtyard.
This was originally an honorable thing, but when they thought that the leftovers in the food box were also used by Taoye, who was also a maid, the smiles on their faces froze for a moment.
But the two of them didn't know if they had learned enough lessons last time, but they behaved very well.
"Take one pill of this medicine every day, use today's medicine first!"
Rong Jiu said, placing a celadon vial in front of Tao Ye.
"yes!"
Taoye didn't ask what kind of medicine it was, and responded with a sweet face, poured out one pill and ate it.
"Fifth Young Master, do you want to take a nap?"
Taoye remembered the little silver fox in the house who had nothing to eat.
"Why, can you still serve me like this?"
Rong Jiu glanced at Tao Ye teasingly.
The word "serve" was particularly emphasized. Taoye was surprised, why did the fifth young master still talk about Meng Lang's words today.
"If the young master gives you orders, I will serve you wholeheartedly!"
Taoye turned around seriously and lowered her head slightly.
She smelled of medicine now, and she didn't believe that the people next to her were interested.
"come over!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Rong Jiu stood up and walked out quickly.
Taoye propped up the table with her hands and tried not to pull on her wounds when she stood up. Even with this delay, there was no one outside the door.
"The young master is in the study, my servant will help you over!"
At some point, Nanyun, who was waiting at the door, supported Taoye.
Go to the study?
Taoye was confused for a moment, then followed Nanyuan's help and walked over.
"Close the door and get out!"
"yes!"
Nan Yun helped Tao Ye into the house and heard Rong Jiu's soft command.
After bowing their bodies and exiting the door, Xingyun and Guiyun gently closed the door.
"Aren't you going to serve me? Why don't you come over here?"
Rong Jiu lifted up her robe and sat down on the couch under the window.
Taoye was seriously injured this time, especially the backs of his hands and arms, which were wrapped in white cloth and could only wear a wide-sleeved shirt.
But even so, his appearance remained unchanged, and his slightly raised eyes were filled with tenderness.
"Fifth Young Master!"
As soon as he reached the couch, he was hugged around the waist, and Taoye let out a small exclamation.
"What are you calling for?"
Rong Jiu scolded lightly.
"No, Fifth Young Master, can I please sit on the couch?"
"Don't worry, I won't be tired!"
Rong Jiu's eyes fell on the back of Tao Ye's trembling white hand, his eyes dark.
"Do you still remember who suggested drinking dew tea to the princess yesterday?"
Taoye moved her body unconsciously, her waist tightened momentarily, and then she felt a warmth in her ears.
"This slave doesn't recognize her... I just remember that she is a young lady wearing plain clothes!"
"Do you remember anything else? Jewelry, appearance, is there anything special about it?"
Rong Jiu continued to ask.
Taoye frowned and thought carefully for a while. At that time, she only lowered her eyebrows and made tea, served tea, and apologized. She really didn't pay much attention to the speaker's appearance.
She remembered that the person was in the back seat.
jewelry……
"Fifth Young Master, please forgive me, but I really don't remember the young lady's appearance. Regardless, when I followed the princess out, I seemed to have caught a glimpse of a red plum blossom on the young lady's head!"
Taoye remembered that the red plum on the rocker should be carved from soapstone, which was particularly dazzling in the sun.
Plain clothes, red plums... Rong Jiu pondered for a moment.
"This is enough!"
Rong Jiu said in a deep voice.
Tao Ye was held in his arms and sat in his arms, unable to see clearly the expression on Rong Jiu's face.
But this posture was really inconvenient, and she couldn't feel secure while sitting. Just when she was about to think of a reason to get up, she felt her body light up and she was placed on the couch.
Immediately afterwards, a pair of warm hands were placed on the tie at the waist of the skirt at the back, and the long skirt quickly loosened and fell down a little.
Taoye's move was a little unexpected, and she subconsciously tried to pull up the waist of her skirt that was hanging slightly.
"do not move!"
Tao Ye's hands, which were still aching a little, froze in mid-air, but only for a moment before they hung on both sides again.
When the shirt was taken off, the wound on her back was not touched. Taoye felt relieved. Since the fifth young master was concerned about her injuries, he would not...
She really didn't feel that the fifth young master wanted her.
But before he could relax to the end, his lowered eyes saw two dark purple masses on his chest.
When she woke up, she was lying on the carriage coming back, and the injuries in other places were in severe pain. Although she remembered to clarify her innocence in front of the fifth young master, she did not remember the traces left by the second young master Wei on her body.
When she first tested the fifth young master's attitude on the carriage, she never thought of this incident. Too many things happened that night, and she was so careless.
Others could tell what was going on at the first glance, so she couldn't find any other excuse to excuse it.
But she couldn't think too much about it at the moment.
"Fifth Young Master, don't look..."
