Chattering, Zhang's small yard is full of laughter, children's cheers.

You Ning stood in front of the Crescent Gate, looking at the front yard.Fuzi probed his head, glanced at the front yard, and then at his son, "Young master, do you want Nan Mama to despise yourself like this?"

"Do you think he despised himself?"

"Washing people's hair is what servants do." Fuzi rolled his eyes.Knowing that people from the Song family came to the door, his son hurried to the front yard to help.Unexpectedly, the young master stood in front of the Crescent Gate like this without saying a word.

"Xiao Shu." You Ning shook his head, "He is smarter and stronger than I imagined."

"Oh, that can't be done. Master, they are still waiting for you to marry a husband and go back." Fuzi felt a little powerless listening to the son's words.

"If you really come back empty-handed, I won't be willing." You Ning reached out and tapped Fuzi's head, "Have you finished washing your clothes?"

"Didn't you let Dou Mama wash it?" Fuzi put on a bitter face and put his hands on his head.

"Today's clothes, you come to wash." You Ning paused and left a sentence, regardless of Fuzi's painful "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

The author has something to say: Happy Chinese New Year, girls, everything will be fine.

The days passed slowly, Liang Yunqi brought his elder brother's husband, Gu Shan, when he visited.Gu Shan is not as careless as Liang Yunqi, Xu often deals with people of similar status, Gu Shan speaks softly and looks gentle and polite.But every time Nan Shu met him, she felt uncomfortable.

This kind of person looks easy to get along with, but his eyes are sharp, and he can be seen if he is not careful.Nan Shu gets along with Gu Shan far less happily and naturally than getting along with Liang Yunqi.

After coming and going, Liang Yunqi seemed to have noticed something, and gradually stopped bringing Gu Shan to the door.

Mama Song came again, and this time Nan Shu entertained him as usual.While washing her hair, Jiang Mama's eyes were fixed on Nan Shu, fearing that she might have missed an action.

Nan Shu knew it in her heart, but pretended not to know it on her face. She occasionally turned her head and smiled at Jiang Mama with a meaningful smile.Jiang Mama's eyes flickered, and she forced the corners of her mouth to return a smile.

Washing hair is a technical job, it is not difficult to say, but it is not easy to say easy.It is absolutely impossible to learn by just looking at it.More still needs practice.As for Song Shaoma Male's reluctance to be treated by Jiang Mama as a test subject, it was up to Song Shaomama.It's just... Nan Shu raised the corner of her mouth.I remembered that when I was just learning to wash my hair, I didn’t know how to use my fingertips to use gentle force, so I scraped and scraped with my nails desperately, which caused countless eyes from customers.Now, with Jiang Mama's face, I don't know how many times Song Shaomama can bear it.

Nan Shu was washing her hair and smiling.Jiang Mama laughed so hard that her heart was pounding.But after thinking about it, the Song family was a big family in Fucheng. Now that they have learned a craft from him, they can at most give him some things in the future, and just give him some money. Besides, let them recognize them as distant relatives. The Zhang family took advantage.

The three of them had their own thoughts, so they washed their hair in peace.This time Song Shaomama was prepared.Ask Nanshu to bring a pair of children to her.She gave Zhang Ri a white jade hairpin and a pair of emerald jade bracelets to Zhang Yue.

"I will keep the hairpin and wait for Brother Ri to wear it after the crowning ceremony. Brother Ri looks quite old, and it is time for the crowning ceremony in a few years. The bracelet is for Xiaoyue, and Xiaoyue will wait for it in the future." Yue is married, so I can keep it as a dowry." Song Shaomama smiled kindly, and sent hairpins and bracelets to the two children respectively.

Nan Shu glanced at it, and it seemed that it was worth a lot of money. She thought in her heart that later she would ask You Ning to come over and palm her eyes, and see how much Song Shaomama planned to spend to buy her "patent".

"It will take many years until the children grow up. Such a generous gift from you..." Nan Shu intentionally showed hesitation.

"I want it, I want it, this child, seeing the wind grows, he grows up in the blink of an eye."

Nan Shu felt amused, if she really wanted to, she would keep it until they became adults, and sending these now, wouldn't it be clear and clean to break the relationship?

"Then... I'll have the cheek to accept it." Nan Shu nodded with a smile, signaling the two children to accept it.

Obtaining Ama's order, Zhang Ri Zhangyue bowed to Song Shao Mama, and obediently stood beside Nan Shu.

Song Shaomama sneaked a sideways glance at Jiang Mama, seeing him nodding at her, she immediately bid farewell to Nan Shu, but Nan Shu didn't hold back, she sent her to the gate of the small courtyard, watching the green cloth sedan slowly leave Fuyang street.

As soon as Song Shaomama left, Liang Yunqi came back.Apologize to Nan Shu as soon as she comes.Nan Shu waved her hand to stop Liang Yunqi from speaking, and handed the hairpin and bracelet to Liang Yunqi, "Help me see how much it's worth?"

"This should be produced by Lao Jixiang from Fucheng." Liang Yunqi looked at the light several times, feeling a little uncertain. "The jade jewelry produced by Lao Jixiang costs tens of taels of silver for each piece."

Nan Shu calculated that if the two items were authentic, they would be worth about 100 taels of silver.Nodded, "100 taels to buy a craft, not bad. Not bad."

Liang Yunqi's face immediately turned red, "You, did you find out? Actually, I told my elder brother's Mama, but he didn't listen, he..."

"Okay, okay. Ever since he asked me to enter the mansion and I refused, I knew he would come to this trick." Nan Shu raised the corners of her mouth and raised the jade in her hand, "If you really want them to learn from me, I will They won't let them in. But speaking of it, Gu Shan came here with the intention of stealing lessons."

Liang Yunqi was laughed so hard that he lowered his head, "He meant that, he wanted me to watch from the side, but I still feel bad, no matter what, it's all your unique skill, maybe I will transfer it to..."

"It's a craft, but it's not a unique one. What's more, if the people of the Song family want to learn it well, they can't learn it just by watching it once or twice."

"Then what will you do next?"

"What should I do? I don't make a living by doing this. How I lived before is how I live now."

Liang Yunqi was told by Nan Shu, I don't know whether it is better to be sad for him or happy.There are only two wry smiles, "After all, Gu Shan did something wrong this time, if he hadn't suggested..."

"If you really feel guilty, why don't you help me with one thing, and if it's done, this matter will be evened out." Nan Shu rubbed her chin, just happened to have one thing that she was worried about finding someone to do, Liang Yunqi had bumped into it It's time to come.

Nan Shu whispered something in Liang Yunqi's ear.Liang Yun shook his head desperately at first, but couldn't hold back Nan Shu's repeated demands, so he nodded. "If you are told to keep less contact, you must not listen. If you encounter unlucky things, don't blame me."

"I don't blame you, you just have to do it."

After sending Liang Yunqi out, Nan Shu calculated the things she had to do in the near future and found that everything had been arranged. She clapped her hands and went back to the room to put the jade away, waiting for Liang Yunqi to lead someone to the door.

In the west of the city, Xu Xiu rinsed the washed clothes with clean water, and then slowly wrung them dry. When she stood up, Xu Xiu's face turned pale, and the basin in her hand almost fell to the ground.

Barely standing still, Xu Xiu moved step by step, slowly moved to the pole where the clothes are dried, took a deep breath, put down the basin, took out the clothes and slowly put them on one by one.

The weather has been fine recently, and I have taken back and washed a lot more clothes. Although I can earn more money, I am also much more tiring than usual.Xu Xiu touched her sore waist, and it seemed that it was getting worse.Xu Xiu smiled bitterly.Seriously, let's be serious, anyway, I'm alone at home, and the worst result is to die at home and no one will know.

Thinking of the possible bleak ending, Xu Xiu didn't feel bitter, but relaxed.It's good to die, it's all dead.If you die, you don't need to wear this skin, you can live in this world.

With a bang, the half-hidden door was suddenly pushed open, "This is it. This is it."

Hearing the sound, Xu Xiu turned around and looked out, and saw that the old Mama, who usually didn't get along well with her, bent over and smiled flatteringly at a young Mama.

The young Mama covered her nose and mouth with a handkerchief, her eyes wandered around the yard, and finally landed on Xu Xiu. "it's him?"

"That's right, that's him." Old Mama glanced at Xu Xiu, with a bit of disdain in her eyes.

Xu Xiu smiled, let go of the clothes in her hands, and stood in front of the young Mama generously, allowing him to look at her at will.

"It's done, this is your guide money." Liang Yunqi put two copper coins in the old Mama's hand.Old Mama's wrinkled face immediately burst into laughter, and when she turned to leave, she didn't forget to stare at Xu Xiu a few times.

"Xu Xiu?"

"It's me." Xu Xiu really couldn't think of anyone else who came to her door except for her own bad luck.If I want to do my own laundry, I usually send an old Mama over to say a few words, and no one is willing to approach me.

"My surname is Liang. My little nephew got lost a few days ago. It's all because of you." Liang Yun said with a look on his face that you don't want to deny it, and he knew it was a good thing you did.

Surnamed Liang?Or lost a child?Xu Xiu quickly remembered that she picked up two children and went home that night.It's actually surnamed Liang, but isn't that Nan Shu's child?

"What do you want to do?" Xu Xiu stared at Liang Yunqi vigilantly. The child has been found, so he definitely didn't come to ask him for someone. Did he come to beat him, or to keep himself away from Liang and Zhang's family?

"Hmph! If it weren't for you, how could my child get lost? The boy is obedient and well-behaved, and he never runs out of the house by himself. It's all because of you, well, let the bad luck pass on my boy. It's you! Tell you, Fortunately, I found it back, if the child can't be found, see if I don't send you to the county government. Hehe!"

Xu Xiu's face was pale, and the child ran out of the house by himself, all of which could be blamed on her.

"Catch a thief
