Geng Xingshuang said it bluntly. This girl looked tall and strong, and her temper was not as bad as she showed just now. She immediately stopped patting her back when she heard it.
"Hammer, why didn't you say anything?"
"Girl, slave... slave..."
"Jinbao, go help Tie Hammer to sit on the steps here and have a rest. Tie Hammer, don't talk for now. Wait until you are out of breath before you speak."
Geng Xingshuang couldn't help but mind his own business when he saw that one was naive and the other was weak.
And such a weak little maid actually has a name as rough as "Iron Hammer", which is both inconsistent and interesting. She really wants to know what this girl's name is, and whether she happens to have a very soft and gentle name.
"Slave...I...girl..."
Tie Zhui wanted to struggle a little longer, but she didn't expect that this maid, who looked like a white soft steamed bun, had very strong hands and almost half-supported, half-carried her to sit on the steps. He thoughtfully put a veil on it.
"Hammer, just sit down."
The girl ordered, then looked at Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen, and asked: "Which family are you from? What's your name? Oh, my name is Jiang Xuefu. My eldest brother and Yang Erye are colleagues. It was he who asked me to come here. Participate in this Laoshizi...uh...flower viewing party."
"I'm from Anping County, Xingliu. My name is Geng Xingshuang."
"I am her seventh sister, and my name is Geng Xingchen."
As expected, I guessed right. This girl has a very nice name, which makes people feel contrastingly cute.
This pair of master and servant is really interesting.
"Miss Jiang, we haven't gone to the garden yet. What flowers are there in the garden? When we were in Mrs. Yang's main courtyard just now, we heard that many guests came to the outer courtyard. If we go late, people like Wei Zi, Yao Huang, Beautiful flowers like Erqiao and Eighteenth Bachelor will be moved to the outer courtyard. When you leave, will these flowers still be in the garden?"
Geng Xingshuang looked worried and asked seriously.
Jiang Xuefu came early. When she arrived at the garden, she saw a spring scene full of colorful flowers and blooming flowers. She was in a good mood at the time and felt that this trip was not in vain. She took the little maid Tie Hammer with her. She enjoyed the flowers and scenery with great interest. Although she could not name most of the flowers, it did not affect her appreciation of them.
But after watching for a while, she heard several people staring at her not far away. She knew the contempt and ridicule in their eyes all too well.
She has an average appearance, a tall and strong figure, and a dark complexion. She doesn't think she is unattractive, but people always use this to make fun of her, especially at such banquets where many young ladies from wealthy families gather. It will become a talking point for others.
Yes, they will not talk about her in front of her and embarrass her, but they will distance themselves from her and express their derogation of her with their eyes.
At such banquets, she was often silently pushed aside by everyone, feeling lonely.
Gradually, except for those with whom she was particularly close, she rarely attended such banquets. She was not wrong. There was no need for these people to have more talk after dinner.
This time she came because her eldest brother said that Mr. Yang was a very nice person and that the Yang family had a good family tradition and would not be in the same situation as before. Unexpectedly, she was disappointed.
After that, she had no intention of admiring the flowers at all, especially since many girls seemed to regard her as a novelty. They ran around to look at her. She endured it again and again, and finally ran out after she couldn't bear it anymore.
Didn't anyone notice that the flowers in the garden had been moved away?
"Forehead……"
Jiang Xuefu scratched her head in embarrassment.
"I was so angry with those people just now that I didn't notice if anyone was moving flowers in the garden. By the way, Wei Zi, Yao Huang, and what do those bachelors look like?"
"Pfft..."
Geng Xingchen laughed out loud. She was not mocking her, she just thought this girl's words were interesting and she had a naive and frank attitude, unlike the girls she usually interacted with.
Jiang Xuefu was a little embarrassed by Geng Xingchen's smile. She could see that Geng Xingchen didn't mean to look down on her, but she finally met two beautiful girls who were willing to talk to her, but she didn't even know what flowers looked like. This made her feel a little ignorant.
Jiang Xuefu had a look of annoyance on her face, and just as she was about to say something to calm her down, she heard Geng Xingshuang say in surprise:
"It turns out that Miss Jiang doesn't know anything about flowers. I just heard them say the names of those flowers in the main courtyard. I was still a little panicked. Although we have a garden at home, there are only some wild flowers that grow on their own. They are just some ordinary flowers and plants that I planted in the past that do not need to be carefully taken care of. Although I have attended several flower-viewing parties at other people's homes in the past, I really only looked at the flowers themselves. I just thought they looked good. I couldn't even name the flowers. , I was worried that I would be timid after going to the garden."
"That's right, me too, I don't understand either." Geng Xingchen immediately echoed.
Jiang Xuefu was a little dumbfounded when she heard this, but the two beautiful girls in front of her didn't know much about flowers, so she didn't seem to need to feel upset about it, so what should she say?
But what should I say at this time?
Tie Hammer, who was sitting on the steps and resting with Jin Bao's support, had slowed down. Seeing that his girl was stuck, he wanted to come forward to help, but Jin Bao stopped him.
Just when Tie Zhui was worried that her girl didn't know what to say and almost ran away again in anger, she heard the girl with a pair of watery almond eyes and two dimples appearing when she smiled said: "Since everyone doesn't understand flowers, Miss Jiang, why don’t we go enjoy the flowers together?”
Tie Zhui was stunned, and so was Jiang Xuefu.
"Miss Geng, we don't understand flowers, why should we go together..."
"I just don't understand, so I want to go together."
Geng Xingshuang interrupted Jiang Xuefu with a smile.
"There are three reasons. Firstly, we don't understand, so no one should laugh at anyone; secondly, although we don't understand, it doesn't affect our appreciation. The flowers are not only beautiful, but also very fragrant. It's not easy for us to come here once , of course we have to read enough to make this trip worthwhile; the third thing is that we cannot retreat when difficulties arise, but must face them head-on. If we don’t understand, we can ask those who understand flowers. Girl, you can also ask the gardener in the garden.”
Jiang Xuefu listened blankly to Geng Xingshuang's list of reasons for flower viewing. After she finished speaking, Jiang Xuefu realized that she had just... nodded.
"Miss Jiang, let's go then. We have to hurry up. It's getting late and we're going to be late. Those beautiful flowers might have been moved to the outer courtyard."
"That's right, you have to hurry up." Geng Xingchen repeatedly agreed.
Jiang Xuefu followed the two of them obliviously again. Jinbao and Tiechui looked at it and quickly followed.
"Your girl is so amazing!" Tie Zhui sighed.
"My girl is really amazing." Jin Bao was not modest at all.
"Your girl is really good at talking!" Iron Hammer sighed again.
"My girl talks nicely." Jin Bao concluded.
"Don't think that my girl can be explained away by your girl in a few words. In fact, my girl is usually very stubborn. Sometimes my wife even talks about it. She can't force her to do things she doesn't want to do, so your girl is simply too incredible."
The hammer's praise is like the endless flow of a surging river.
Jinbao glanced sideways, "You are too weak. My girl won't want you. You should give up!"
Hammer:......
