[White Snake] Bi Liansheng

Shen Qiang took Nianniang to the lower house. Although it was a lower house, the yard was clean and the rooms were spacious, better than ordinary houses.

Nian Niang smiled and said to Shen Qiang gratefully: "Shen Qiang, thank you. Without you, I would not know where I am now."

Nianniang's face was dirty just now on the street, but she didn't notice it.Now that Nianniang's face is clean, she is really beautiful.It was the first time for Shen Qiang to be looked at by such a stunning woman, and he was a little embarrassed.Although Madam is beautiful, Nian Niang is even more beautiful.Shen Qiang was at a loss, scratched his head honestly, and said shyly: "It's okay, I'm also very happy to help you."

"Shen Qiang, what am I going to do these days?" Nian Niang asked.

"Ah?" Shen Qiang was still stuck in the thoughts just now, when Nian Niang asked him, Shen Qiang remembered what he had to do: "You are not stable now, there are still a few helpers in the kitchen, and there is very little work. Yes, it's easy, and it's very suitable for your current situation."

"Well. Can you take me there then?" Nian Niang was not dissatisfied with Shen Qiang's arrangement, and quickly accepted it, just looking at him expectantly.

"Well, oh, okay." Shen Qiang replied naively, "Then you go to rest first, and I will take you there tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you very much, Shen Qiang."

Shen Qiang was so fascinated by Nian Niang that he couldn't find things anywhere, he foolishly walked out of the courtyard amidst Nian Niang's eyes filled with gratitude.But he didn't see the sneer and sarcasm flashing across Nian Niang's face behind him.

Here, Housekeeper Shen is looking for Shen Qiang in the whole house. This brat, who is not serving the master, where is he going?

Butler Shen muttered to himself, if he finds this kid, he must beat him up.

Coincidentally, when Housekeeper Shen looked up, he saw Shen Qiang coming out of the lower courtyard with a smile on his face, and immediately became angry. I have been looking for you in the mansion for so long, your father, but you are in the lower courtyard.

"Shen Qiang." Steward Shen said angrily.

As soon as Shen Qiang heard his father's angry voice, he put away his smile, and hurried to the front of Steward Shen, and said, "Father, what's the matter?"

"What's wrong?" Steward Shen was a little annoyed, and said angrily, "What have you been doing today?"

"It's nothing?" Shen Qiang looked at Steward Shen suspiciously, wondering why his father was angry, and thought for a while and said, "I'm going out with the master today, I saved someone, it's all right."

"What about after saving someone?" Steward Shen looked at Shen Qiang's confused face, his eyebrows twitched, the child didn't realize that he had done something wrong at all, wasn't he very clever before.

"I brought Nianniang into the mansion, Dad, let me tell you..." Speaking of this, Shen Qiang wanted to show off to Steward Shen with a proud face, that he not only saved Nianniang, but also helped her keep her. After coming down, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Butler Shen: "Who is Nian Niang?"

"Nianniang is the woman who went out to rescue the master in the morning." Shen Qiang said with a smile on his face.

"Why did you bring her in?" Steward Shen frowned fiercely, feeling as if he understood something.

"Nianniang is very pitiful. She is being bullied by bullies and her family is not here. I just want to ask the master if I can stay here first, and leave when her husband comes back." Shen Qiang expressed the heroic complex that I have done a good deed to the fullest.

"So you brought her directly in front of the master?" Steward Shen asked cautiously, expecting his stupid son to not do this.

"Well. I was afraid that what I said was not enough, so I brought Nianniang to the master's yard, and begged the master to agree." Shen Qiang said excitedly, feeling that he had really done a good thing right.

Steward Shen wished to stuff Shen Qiang back into his mother's belly to rebuild, angrily shook the potsticker on the back of Shen Qiang's head with his hands, and said, "Do you still think you did the right thing?"

"Father, what are you doing?" Shen Qiang didn't understand why his father beat him so hard, and asked suspiciously, "I even helped someone."

Steward Shen was so angry that he didn't care about anything, so he directly grabbed Shen Qiang's ear vigorously, and shouted at Shen Qiang: "Master, you just came to me and asked me to remind you not to overstep. Yet?"

Shen Qiang was stunned, what's the matter, he didn't go beyond.

Steward Shen felt that he was really going to be pissed off, so he clicked directly: "This is the master's house. If the master wants to help, he will help. If he doesn't want to help, he won't help. What are you doing? What are you doing? Bring people to the master's house." Yard, don’t you know that ordinary people can’t enter the master’s yard? Ever since the young master came back, who has the master allowed to enter? If something happens to the master and the young master, tell me, what should you do.”

Shen Qiang was hit one after another by what Steward Shen said, and his face was terrified. The confidence just now was gone, and he hurriedly took Steward Shen's hand in a panic, and said in a confused way: "Father, what should we do? Nianniang is a weak woman , will not be in any danger to the master."

Steward Shen sighed and said, "Shen Qiang, don't make up your own mind in the future, you have to ask the master about everything, this is the master's house, we are just serving others, understand?"

Shen Qiang nodded in a daze, figured it out, the master was annoyed at his self-assessment and brought Nian Niang to the master's yard.

》》》》》》》》》》》》》

A few days after Nian Niang was assigned to the main kitchen by Shen Qiang, she never saw Shen Qiang again.

Nian Niang is also a very good person, she has only been here for a few days, and she is very familiar with the cooks.

Cook Li is an old woman in her 40s, with wrinkles around her eyes.Her husband passed away very early, and she had no children, leaving her alone as a widow. She felt very sympathetic to what happened to Nian Niang.In normal times, she would take care of Nian Niang more often.

Xiaocui is a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, just at the age of a flower, and she looks juicy.Xiao Cui is a child of a poor family, and her own family can't even afford food. Girls are not valued as much as boys at home, so they are sold to a prostitute by their family, and they go to other people's houses to work as slaves, which can be regarded as earning a living.But Xiao Cui was lucky, she was bought by Housekeeper Shen and stayed in the kitchen to work.

Lotus got married two years ago, and her husband also works in the mansion.The combined monthly silver for two people is enough, and they usually live in the house with food, clothing, and housing, so basically there is no need to worry about it. They will send money to the family every once in a while, and their small life is also very good. .The only regret is that after two years of marriage, there is still no news from my stomach.Knowing that Nian Niang is pregnant, and it took many years to obtain it, He Hua felt a sense of sympathy for each other.He Hua likes to spend more time with Nian Niang, and hopes that she will be more happy and conceive a child as soon as possible.

I will not mention Shitou, the only male worker in the kitchen, he is honest and honest, of course, the coolies in the kitchen are none other than him, and he is also cheerful and has nothing to complain about.Others were chatting about family affairs, but he just stood aside and stayed silently.

For example, now, Nianniang is sitting alone at the door of the kitchen, picking sprouts carefully with her head bowed. When the lotus is empty, she comes over with a small stool, sits next to the lotus, and says with a smile: "Nianniang, let me help you. With your speed, you have to finish eating after you pick your dinner."

When the cook heard this, she laughed and said, "Lotus, you can just say that you want to be happy. Just order sprouts like this, and Nianniang can't finish her work."

"I'm here to help Nianniang, so I can get some joy, by the way." He Hua was a little embarrassed by Li's cook, and said with a laugh.

Cook Li didn't say much, and the lotus couple were worried about their children, and they knew it themselves, so let's stick to it.

Nian Niang looked at the two of them talking with a warm face, and jokingly said: "Lotus, if you are pregnant, I will have a share of the credit."

Everyone is willing to listen to good words. He Hua immediately smiled when she heard this: "If you are really pregnant, Nian Niang, I will give you a big red envelope."

"Nianniang, I will testify for you, He Hua, don't try to let me go." Cook Li said aloud.

Nian Niang suppressed her laughter, and replied loudly: "Well, if you don't give me the lotus at that time, you have to ask for it for me, cook."

For a moment, the laughter of He Hua, the cook, and Nian Niang echoed in the room.

"Where's Xiao Cui?" After laughing, Cook Li asked suspiciously as she looked at the carp soup stewed in the pot.

"At noon, Xiaocui told me to go to the Beauty Shop to buy rouge, and she will be back later." Nian Niang replied with a smile.

"Is that the one you mentioned yesterday?" He Hua raised her head and asked.

"Well, that's the one." Nian Niang nodded.

"Why didn't Xiao Cui talk to me when he went, and it would be nice to bring me something by the way." He Hua said very regretfully.

"It's just you who have a lot of things to do." Chef Li rolled her eyes at the lotus, and said, "Madam's soup is ready, and Xiao Cui is not here, so I'll go and deliver it." Saying that, she wanted to take off her apron .

"Cook, can you let me go? I haven't thanked Madam for letting me stay in the house yet." Nian Niang got up and begged Cook Li.

Chef Li didn't mind thinking about it. Although the master agreed, the wife is in charge of the house.It was only right for Nian Niang to thank Madam, so she nodded in agreement.

》》》》》》》》》》》》》

Nian Niang carried the food box that Cook Li gave her, and walked towards Li Bilian's yard without hindrance.

When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the guards stopped him and said, "What's the matter with you?"

Nian Niang bowed her head, and said respectfully: "The kitchen helper who came a few days ago, Xiao Cui is not here because of something. Cook Li asked me to deliver soup to Madam."

The guard frowned. He had heard that Shen Qiang had brought someone in a few days ago, but he had never seen him before. It seemed to be some kind of mother.And the guard on duty that day was caught by the master in the wrong place, hit a board, and was still recovering from his injuries.

"What's your name."

"Slave Nianniang." Hearing the name, the guard remembered that the girl was called Nianniang.Since the master kept her in the mansion, it should be fine to let her in.Immediately, he got up and gave in, letting Nian Niang into the courtyard.

Nian Niang looked up at the elegant courtyard, and walked towards the room with the food box with a smile on her face.

But seeing the door was wide open, Nian Niang cautiously looked in the room secretly, but there was no one there.

With doubts, Nian Niang walked into the room gently, put the food box on the table, and looked around the room.

Li Bilian heard some noises in the room. After all, it was Xiaocui's time to deliver soup, so Li Bilian thought it was Xiaocui who had entered the house.

Li Bilian opened the door of the inner room and said, "Xiao Cui."

Li Bilian closed the door, but she didn't hear Xiao Cui's response. She was unsure. Could it be Xiao Cui who tentatively called again: "Xiao..."

Before Li Bilian was completely speechless, she saw Nian Niang, who looked very similar to Hu Meiniang, standing in her room, her eyebrows furrowed deeply, and she said in a displeased tone, "Why are you here?"

Nianniang leaned slightly towards Li Bilian and said, "Nianniang brought soup to Madam, and she also wants to thank Madam."

Li Bilian looked at Nianniang's appearance, feeling sick and feeling very uncomfortable.Even if Xu Shilin let go of him in his heart, no matter who sees the person who has loved him for more than ten years standing in front of him alive, he will not feel at ease.

Li Bilian took a deep breath calmly, turned her back to Nianniang, sat down at the table, and when she was almost calm, she asked, "Are you helping in the kitchen now?"

"Well, it was Shen Qiang who arranged it for the servant girl." Nian Niang followed behind Li Bilian, and replied with lowered eyebrows.

"It's okay, you can go down." After Li Bilian asked, she sent Nianniang away.

Li Bilian stared at Nianniang's back, her anger kept boiling, it was really annoying.Turning to stare at the food box, an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes.

Li Bilian sat blankly for a while, then got up and left the room and walked towards the door.Li Bilian's mind is in a mess now, but she clearly knows that she doesn't want to see this person who looks so much like Hu Meiniang again, perhaps the last thing she wants to see, in her whole life, in her next life, is Hu Meiniang.Walking quickly to the gate of the courtyard, Li Bilian opened the door vigorously, with obvious anger in her eyes.

The guard turned around in surprise. He didn't know why Madam had such an expression, but he still bowed his head and greeted with perceptive eyes: "Madam."

The astonished expression of the guard just now caught Li Bilian's eyes, and she felt bitter in her heart, thinking to herself mockingly: "I really lost my mind when I met Hu Meiniang."

Li Bilian didn't want to pay attention to anything now, and didn't want to worry about anything, so she ordered according to her own heart: "Order, from now on, that Nianniang is not allowed to step into this courtyard again, understand?" Li Bilian especially emphasized The last sentence made people shudder.

The guard said firmly, "Follow the order."

Li Bilian was very satisfied with the guard's firm attitude, as if she had a few more allies, and she was no longer alone, and her anger slowly subsided.

Li Bilian recruited one of the guards, and said with the majesty of the hostess: "Go and tell Shen Qiang that Nianniang is pregnant and should not work hard. You don't need to go to the kitchen to help, just stay in the yard. It was originally to help people take refuge. If we do too many things and get sick, it is our fault."
