Chapter 138 The Little Maid in the Prime Minister's Mansion 2

In this way, Chu Yuan stayed in the study to serve, responsible for serving tea and water to the young master.

Although this job is not tiring, she has to keep an eye on the young master's movements at all times and cannot relax for a moment. Her legs are a little sore after standing for a whole day.

After the young master rested in the evening, she could return to her room. Only then did she finally have time to think about the direction of the world.

Now Chu Yuan has officially moved to Yuxiu Garden and lives in the same house with Nian Qiao, the young master's personal maid.

I didn't expect that she was the empress who looked down upon the world not long ago, but now she has become a little maid whose life and death are in the hands of others. It's really a matter of time and fate.

"Xiaodao, what was the original owner's wish?"

"The original owner wanted Ren Wanqing to pay for her life, and then live well with her brother. It would be best if she could find a wife for her brother so that he could continue the Chu family's incense."

It seems that the original owner attached great importance to this younger brother, and all his wishes, except for revenge, were about him.

Come to think of it, they have been in the mansion for three months, and she has not seen her brother yet.

The next morning, Chu Yuan got up at the hour of Mao. The eldest master was very diligent and got up early every day to study, so she had to accompany him.

When she washed up and came to the study, the eldest master was already doing his morning reading.

Chu Yuan didn't dare to disturb him, so he walked in quietly, put a cup of hot tea on the desk, and then stood aside waiting for orders.

The book the young master was reading was "Zhaoming Wenxuan". Chu Yuan took a quick look at it and it seemed to be a collection of poetry and prose.

"Zhuyun, can you understand?"

When Chu Yuan heard her name, she immediately knelt down in front of the table and said, "I shouldn't have peeked at your book, please forgive me."

"It's okay, get up, can you understand what's on it?"

"My lord, I can understand it. The page you just turned over is a poem about parting."

Zhang Sun Yizhong was a little surprised: "You know all the characters?"

"Yes, I have been going to school with my brother since I was young, and the teacher has praised me for my intelligence."

"Then you come and read for me, starting from this page." After saying that, he handed the poetry collection in his hand to her.

She didn't expect that this would give her the job of studying. But it's not bad this way. If she studies well, maybe the young master will reward her.

"Yes."

Chu Yuan took the book and began to read aloud, using her normal speaking tone without deliberately lowering her voice.

The morning passed and a few pages of the book were turned, until someone came to call the young master to go to the front yard, the sound of reading stopped.

Before leaving, Chu Yuan was instructed to come to the study to read at this time every day, and she was also allowed to prepare a cup of tea for herself when she made tea.

Chu Yuan was very happy to gain face in front of the young master.

After all, I'm living under someone else's roof now, and if I want to live a better life, I have to rely on my master's grace.

After half a month of living like this, it was Chu Yuan's turn to take a day off. Yesterday, she had asked the young master for grace to allow her to go and meet her brother.

Chu Yuan went to the Second Young Master's Linfeng Courtyard early in the morning with the silver that the Young Master had rewarded him with in the past few days.

Soon, the brother and sister met outside the courtyard gate.

"Sister, why are you here? I couldn't believe it when the gatekeeper called me just now."

"Yang'er, sister is taking a day off today, so I came to see how you are doing."

"Don't worry, sister. The Second Young Master treats me well and never skimps on my food and clothing. I'm much taller now."

Chu Yuan took out some silver from her bosom and stuffed it into her brother's hand: "Yang'er, this is the reward that your sister has received these days. You will be out of the house more often, so you need to have some silver with you."

"Sister, please take it back. How can I accept your money?"

"Take it. I can't spend it if I keep it. At least I can feel more at ease if you take it."

Chu Yang knew that his sister would not give up if he did not accept it, so he could only put the silver in his arms and said: "Sister, if you need anything in the future, send someone to tell me, and I will buy it and send it to you."

The two talked for a while and then Chu Yuan went back.

Seeing that her brother was doing well and didn't seem to be often beaten or scolded, she felt relieved.

Unfortunately, she was just a little maid, and even with her master's permission, she couldn't leave the yard for too long.

The next day, when I returned to the study to serve, the young master asked about what happened yesterday: "Zhu Yun, did you go to see your brother yesterday? How is he?"

"My Lord, I have seen him. My younger brother is living well in your mansion and has grown taller."

"That's good. In this case, you can study for me with peace of mind."

Chu Yuan knew that he was talking about what happened the day before yesterday. At that time, she wanted to go see her brother, but was afraid that the young master would not allow her. She felt a little nervous and therefore accidentally read a few words wrong.

"Yes, I will be careful and will not make the same mistake again."

Maybe because she was in a good mood today, she read a little faster than usual, and there was an unconscious rising sound at the end of the sentence.

Chang Sun Yizhong noticed this keenly, and the corners of his mouth curled up a lot.

After reading the book, Chu Yuan was still very surprised as to why the young master left with a smile today.

......

The Chinese New Year was soon here, and Chu Yuan received his new winter coat. There was a frayed edge on the collar, which made his skin look even whiter.

She is now 14 years old. Maybe because she eats well with her master, she is 6 centimeters taller than when she first came to the capital.

Because she is sweet-mouthed and good at talking, everyone in the yard likes her very much and they always think of her when they have good things.

Look, the yam cake that the young master hadn't touched for breakfast was now in her stomach.

During Chu Yuan's recent stay in Yuxiuyuan, the snack she ate the most was yam cake. This snack was sweet and delicious, and she liked it very much.

During the New Year, all the mansions were busy visiting each other, and the young master hadn't asked her to read for a long time.

Chu Yuan was also happy to have some free time. When he didn't need to be served, he would stay in his room and play chess by himself, or write or draw to pass the time.

Nianqiao, who lived in the same room with her, was a family-born child and was specially allowed to go home to celebrate the New Year with his parents.

Chu Yuan was a maid bought from outside and signed a death contract, so she could not leave the house even during the New Year.

In the mansion, the second young master was taken by his lady to visit his parents. He has been gone for three days and it is unknown when he will return.

As the second young master's servant, Chu Yang of course went along as well, so the two siblings could not spend the first New Year in Shangjing City together.

Chu Yuan could only hide in the room by himself and enjoy all the delicacies in the space.

In fact, life as a maid was not bad. The master she served was kind-hearted and never beat or scolded the servants. He was also very generous to them and would often give them tips.

If she was really just an orphan, she might choose to stay here for the rest of her life.

But unfortunately, she is not.
