The little sweetheart dressed as the ghost king

People in this era, if they were not born in an aristocratic family, basically have no possibility of being exposed to writing.

So even though the maid said that she could read and write, Xiji didn't hold out much hope, and even thought that she might only know a few simple common characters.

But what happened soon, slapped him in the face.Following his narration, the maid's hands were carving words on the thick bamboo slips deftly, her movements were extremely fast, and every character carved was extremely neat.

Seeing this scene, Xiji was a little stunned, and forgot what he was going to say for a moment.

Realizing that Xiji didn't continue talking, but kept staring at herself, the maid became a little cautious, and finally mustered up her courage, looked up at Xiji, and asked cautiously: "My lord, where do servants work?" Is it wrong?"

Hearing her words, Xiji suddenly came back to his senses, looked at the girl who was staring at him, shook his head, and smiled apologetically, "Sorry, I was distracted, let's continue."

The servant girl nodded and didn't dare to say more. When Xiji continued to talk about his plan, she honestly engraved his words on the bamboo slips one by one.

Until the end, Xiji looked at the engraved, long roll of lettering, a little admired, after all, she carved so fast, did not expect that the final carved characters were still so neat.

Look again at the end of the carving, she stood up, and made a maid who was always at her beck and call.Xiji first praised her, "You did a good job, thanks to you, you helped me a lot."

Hearing Xiji praise her so much, the servant girl couldn't help but blushed, and then said neither humble nor overbearing: "Thank you for your kindness, my servant, I just did what I should do."

Seeing this maid so modest, Xiji suddenly thought of something, looked at her and asked curiously: "What's your name?"

"The maidservant's name is Bijiang."

When Xiji heard the name, he felt quite familiar, but for a while, he couldn't remember where he had heard the name before.Thinking of the end, I simply didn't think about it.Looking at Bijiang, he asked, "Since you know how to engrave characters, why are you here?"

When Bijiang heard Xiji's question, she naturally knew how strange it is for a servant to be able to carve characters. If she answered badly, she might be in danger, but she replied without changing her face:

"My servant's grandfather is a teacher. I have been learning from my grandfather since I was a child, so I can know a little bit of words. It's just that the family was in trouble, the family was scattered, and this servant was in trouble. It was the adults who sent people to save this servant. Leave the servant girl in the mansion as a rough envoy and maid."

Xiji looked at Bi Jiang with a calm face, and quickly accepted her words, remembering the strict words he saw just now, touched his nose, and felt that the word "slightly" in her mouth was quite watery.

It's just that Xiji still has a good impression of such a girl who has been in trouble and can still maintain her composure.So I didn't ask any more questions, but looked at her, and said in a gentle voice: "Since you can read, it's too talented to be a poor servant girl. From now on, you will work with me with Lu Yin, and I will be indispensable in the future." to trouble you."

"Yes, thank you, young master." Hearing Xiji's words, Bi Jiang's face did not show much joy, and he still looked calm.

On the other hand, Lu Yin, upon hearing her young master's words, turned her head and glared at the maidservant who suddenly stood up, looking very angry.

Now that the things were written, Xiji immediately called the guards in the mansion to send the document to the steward of Zhuangzi, and brought a message to ensure that they would do what he ordered.

After doing all this, Xiji relaxed again, sat on the soft bed, ate the fruit specially provided by Fuchu, and leisurely thought about what he could do next.

Siji was thinking while stuffing fruit into his mouth.On the contrary, he felt that since he came to this ancient time, everything was not in line with his own wishes, and he was only asked to improve. He didn't know where to start for a while.

Xiji looked at the fruit beside her, and suddenly remembered the bad-tasting wine she drank yesterday.Immediately he knew what he could do, the sky was big and the earth was big, but eating and drinking was the most important thing, so he had to get the wine out first, and then talk about other things.

As soon as he said it, Xiji immediately jumped up from the soft collapse, and a carp jumped down, and then in Lu Yin's slightly panicked eyes, he said enthusiastically: "Let's make a bar!"

Seeing Xiji doing such a dangerous action just now, Lu Yin was taken aback. Hearing Xiji's words at this time, she hastily persuaded before she recovered: "Young master, you have worked so hard recently, so you should rest for a few more days. Bar?"

Xiji didn't care about her words, waved her hands, and said without hesitation: "It's okay, the wine I make is not that troublesome, and it doesn't take much energy."

After Xiji thought about it, he would make some fruit wine.To brew baijiu, a lot of grain is needed.As far as he knows, farmers at this time cultivated the land every year, and they couldn't even solve their basic food and clothing.It would be too extravagant for him to make wine with the food that other people use to survive.Even if you want to brew liquor, you have to wait until the grain output increases before you can consider it.

Xiji thought so, and also gave Lu Yin the principle of making fruit wine, and briefly explained it. The point is to emphasize that this is not a tiring job.

Lu Yin was half-believing, but seeing her young master insisting so much, she would not continue to stop her. She only thought that when Xiji started to do it, she would keep an eye on it and never let him bother him.

After making up his mind, Xiji began to think about what he needed.Now he lives and eats in the mansion, if he needs anything, he has to go to the housekeeper and he will send someone to buy it after the housekeeper approves it.

He wants to brew fruit wine now, no matter whether it is raw materials or utensils, he needs to prepare it now.After thinking about it for a while, Xiji asked Bijiang to make a list for himself, writing down all the things he needed, and after confirming that there was nothing missing, he took the two maids to find the housekeeper.

If someone else asks the butler for something, they may encounter resistance, but the person who came was Xiji. Not only did he not shirk, but he agreed with a smile on his face, and promised that he would give Xiji the most quickly. Send things over.

Xiji was made a little uncomfortable by the enthusiasm of the butler, until he walked out of the door of the butler, he was still talking to the maid who was following him: "This butler is really enthusiastic! I asked for so many things, and he didn't shirk at all, and he agreed immediately. Come down, what a good man!"

Hearing what he said, Lu Yin quietly rolled her eyes behind Xiji. If it wasn't for the son who went, her powerful butler uncle would not let go so easily. Make things difficult.

Bi Jiang looked at the elated master, and then at Lu Yin, who was behaving inappropriately, and remained silent without speaking.

On the other side, after seeing off Xiji, the butler looked at the list he left behind, and took it to find the Night King.

Night King was working in the study, and when he heard that the butler was looking for him at this time, although he was a little puzzled, he still let people in.

After the butler came in, he saluted first, and then told the truth about Xiji's coming to find him. After speaking, he looked at the King of the Night and asked for instructions: "My lord, the wooden barrels that the young master wants are okay. You can find someone to customize it. It’s just that those fruits need a lot of quantity and cost a lot, so the small ones want to come here and ask for instructions.”

Hearing this, the King of the Night waved his hand and signaled the housekeeper to hand him the list that Xi Ji wanted. He glanced at the fruit on it, raised his eyebrows, and said lightly, "Give him as much as he wants. The money comes from the storeroom." out."

"Yes." Hearing Ye Wang's order, although he had expected it a long time ago, the butler was still very moved by Ye Wang's love for Young Master Xi.At this time, I am very fortunate that I have always been polite to Xiji.

After the butler left, the Night King thought of Xiji's pretty face, and cursed with a smile, "It's a mess."

With the approval of the Night King, and everyone knows that the Night King loves Xiji, within a few days, all the things Xiji needs will be obtained.

Seeing that the items in his list were exactly the same, even better than what he had expected, Xiji happily thanked the housekeeper.

Looking at the polite Xiji, the steward leaned over to return the salute, and said respectfully, "Master, these are what the little ones should do." Then, as if thinking of something, he continued to add, "As for these things, The King of the Night also gave orders to get the best for the young master."

Hearing that the Night King also knew about it, Xiji felt a little embarrassed, sent the housekeeper who came to deliver the things away, and thought about how to thank the Night King.But before he could figure out how to thank him, he was attracted by the things in the yard again.

Forget it, let's make fruit wine first. As for the thank you, let's talk about it later.

Lu Yin looked at Xiji from the side, and the cook with rough envoys was working hard, peeling off the precious pomegranates one by one, and drying them in water according to his instructions, her heart was bleeding.

How expensive that thing is!The adults just let the young master spoil it.Lu Yin is very uncomfortable, but Lu Yin can't say it, because if you say that the young master is uncomfortable, then the adults will make yourself uncomfortable.

Hey~ Lvyin sighed faintly, looking at Xiji very enviously.Although the adults are fierce, they are really kind to the young master!

On this end, Xiji had a goal in the past few days, and started working in full swing.

Over there, Ye Wang was very satisfied with Xiji's practice of not running around outside, staying in the mansion honestly every day, and cooking for him to eat together when he went back. He even handled official duties much faster. .

Xiji led the maids and women and worked continuously for several days before peeling, washing and squeezing the pomegranates, putting them into clean jars and sealing them up.

It was the first time Xiji made it, and he didn't have much experience, so he was extra careful, and even the quantity was controlled within two jars.Looking at the dusty wine jar, Xiji heaved a sigh of relief, and looked forward to the day when he would take it out and drink it.

After leading the people to work for so long, now that nothing happened, Xiji gave himself a few days off, eating, drinking and drinking without doing anything for several days.

Just when Xiji was getting tired of this kind of life and was thinking about what fun he could have again, good news came from Zhuangzi.
