Suddenly, this sentence made Ajiao a little confused.

After careful recollection, I realized what the prince said. But - Ajiao is just a little girl who has not yet reached the age of hairpin. Now that she is so close to the man, she is inevitably a little uncomfortable. Although she has been together for only two days, in Ajiao's eyes, the prince is a man standing on the clouds like a breeze and a bright moon, so she no longer worrys about the original intention of the Duke's wife.

But now, Ajiao knows that no matter how gentle the prince is, he is a man.

At this moment, he seemed to be lowering his head, and the heat he exhaled slowly sprayed on her cheeks and ears. Her ears were the most tickling, but only the closest person around her knew that in the Duke's Mansion, only Xingyao knew about it. Ajiao did not dare to move, and opened his lips and said, "I am loyal to the Duke's Mansion and will serve the prince well. This is my duty."

Although I tried hard to pretend to be calm, I was young and my tone was trembling slightly, like a frightened little rabbit.

Xiao Heng let go and said, "It's good." He said indifferently, as if he didn't take the closeness he had just now. When he thought of something, he said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is young and kind-hearted, and you are lucky today. I won't be the case."

Isn't this an example?

Ajiao was a little confused. After a while of a daze, he realized that it was because the prince thought she was deliberately provoking His Royal Highness the Prince? Ajiao felt a little uncomfortable. She had never thought of climbing up with the dragon and supporting the phoenix. She was still trembling in the Duke's Mansion, let alone in the deep palace. Just when she thought of the cute and childish little prince, Ajiao was still a little happy.

Seeing that the prince continued to walk forward, Ajiao followed with the hem of the skirt.

She did not carry the lantern, and was afraid that she would fall again after being impatient, so she had to follow the prince quietly. It was strange that even though she was so dark, the prince walked without any obstacles. With him leading the way, Ajiao walked much smoother.

After returning to the Zhitangxuan, she wanted to wait for the prince to wash up on the couch. The clean room had already prepared hot water. As the prince's instructions, Ajiao went to the closet to get the bedclothes she had to wear after taking a shower. As a maid, she didn't have to wait for her master to take a shower in person, she just had to wait outside, which was a very relaxing job.

She didn't know if the prince would let her keep watching. But she understood that if she stayed for too long, Jinse, Linglong and the others would feel uncomfortable. When she thought of Jinse and Linglong, Ajiao felt a little worried. With the prince, she would not be able to turn a war with them into a treasure. Even if they get along well, they would be just a face. She was isolated and had no help, so she could only serve the prince and make him her backer.

only--

Thinking of the prince's expressionless face, Ajiao felt that this matter was quite difficult.

When Xiao Heng came out after taking a shower, he saw Ajiao laying the bed. She was delicate and petite. He stood there blankly, not daring to walk forward. The girl was quick and careful in her movements, not as cute as a girl from aristocratic families. At a young age, she was very sensible and very good at taking care of others.

After making the bed, Ajiao turned around, reached out and raised the small porcelain bottle in his hand, and said to Xiao Heng: "This is the ointment sent by Madam Lin beside the old lady just now. The old lady told me to let me apply it on the prince."

Xiao Heng said "um", sat down at the edge of the couch, and then untied the belt of his bedclothes in a few seconds. Ajiao held a small porcelain bottle in his hand and carefully took off his top for him. Ajiao did not feel shy. As a maid, serving his master would definitely not avoid these things.

The white silk bedding was removed until the waist, revealing the man's strong and strong upper body, with wide shoulders and narrow waist, smooth lines and unobstructed.

Ajiao's eyes stagnated.

She didn't expect that the prince's back was so beautiful in addition to his beautiful face and hands.

The man's skin color is not as delicate and fair as a woman, and the color is darker. There are still a few scars on his back. I don't know how it was done. Compared with these scars, today's vine whip is not shocking. The prince looked at him as a gentle and elegant young man from a noble family. He was tall and graceful, but he didn't look thin at all inside. Instead, he was a little strong. Perhaps because he had traveled around the world in recent years, his body was better than that of ordinary young man. Moreover, although the lines on his back were smooth, they were not as soft as those of a woman, with a different taste. In short, it looked very good, so he was considered powerful.

"What's wrong?"

Ajiao came back to his senses in a daze, and his face was a little hot for a moment. She didn't dare to speak, so she carefully applied the ointment from the porcelain bottle to the prince's back. Fortunately, she was only a little bit, but it was just a red mark. It was just that the old lady felt sorry for her grandson, so she couldn't bear to leave any scars on her grandson's body. She sent the best ointment for her to serve her to apply.

The man's skin also felt very hard and the touch was not very good, but it was a little hotter than the woman's. Ajiao put on medicine quickly, then covered the porcelain bottle, and put on the prince's bedclothes. Seeing that the prince was not speaking, she was a little embarrassed for a moment, so she took the porcelain bottle and said, "Then... that servant is out."

Xiao Heng nodded, his expression on his face was a little gentle.

The next day, Ajiao had time to find Xingyao, and Xingyao gave her the example silver she received for her yesterday. Ajiao was born in a poor family and always valued money. She also envied those young ladies of aristocratic families who regarded money as dirt, but she knew that she would never live that kind of life in her life. Instead of doing this, it would be better to save money with peace of mind.

After receiving the monthly money, Ajiao was a little happy and his eyebrows were smiling.

Xingyao asked, "I heard that you followed the prince to Mingyuan Villa yesterday, but did you see Mr. Han?"

Ajiao nodded, raised his mouth slightly, put the moon money into the purse on his waist, his eyes were bright and admiring, "Mr. Han is worthy of being a great man, with a gentle temperament and a modest and polite treatment."

As soon as these words came, Xingyao became more and more envious of Ajiao. She looked Ajiao's face up and down, blinked and said in a low voice, "Then are you and the prince..."

Xingyao's words reminded Ajiao of the dream she had last night, and she suddenly felt a little blushed. Maybe she saw the prince's naked back before going to bed, which made her dream also dream in her dream... Ajiao reached out and poked Xingyao's forehead and smiled, "Don't mess around. I'm just a maid. The prince has never liked to get close. I usually do some work of serving tea and water. However, the prince likes to be quiet, and no one can talk to me in the hall."

Listening to Ajiao's complaint, Xing Yao nodded and said, "I miss you too. You don't know. You have only been away for two days. How did those people say you behind your back... They were all ugly words, but who doesn't know that they are actually envious of them."

Who is the prince? But the master of this Duke's mansion.

Xingyao is straightforward. Although Ajiao doesn't care much about these things, she always feels a little uncomfortable when she hears it. After all, no one likes to listen to these words. Ajiao knew that Xingyao had always been righteous, so she said, "I know you are protecting me."

Xingyao bent her eyes and suddenly thought of something. She said "ah", and quickly took out a letter from her arms. The envelope was wrinkled, as if it had been a few days. Xingyao handed it over and said, "I almost forgot that this is a letter from your home. Yesterday afternoon you followed the prince out and I collected it for you... The person who delivered the letter was a man in his forties wearing a half-old jacket. He was tall and thin, with a beard and could speak. He said he was from the same hometown as you, and this letter was written by your father for you."

Three years ago, she was sold to Duke Jingguo's mansion as a maid. Her parents exchanged ten taels of silver to treat her younger brother, and since then she no longer cared about her. Now that she suddenly came, Ajiao was excited, but she was afraid that something would happen to her family... Ajiao was a little anxious and worried, but Xingyao, who was still on the side, spoke: "Why don't I take it apart for you to see if there is anything urgent?"

Xingyao originally only recognized a few words, but she had been with Ajiao for the past three years and learned a lot of words, so reading the letter was no problem at all. She moved quickly to open the wrinkled envelope, took out the folded letter paper, and spread it open. Her apricot eyes looked at the contents of the letter, quickly closed the letter, frowned and said to Ajiao, "I thought I was thinking of you. Ajiao, tell me, how could there be such a heartless parents in the world? I sold you before and ignored you. Now I know that you are doing well in the Duke's Mansion, and I care about you asking for money."

Ajiao's face paused and he felt a little disappointed.

Now that I was not afraid of reading the letter, I took it from Xingyao and looked it carefully. The handwriting on the letter was clear, and it was obvious that it was from my father. However, the tone of the letter was probably her mother. At the beginning, I expressed my longing for me, but then I mentioned that the New Year was almost over at home and I needed to add some new clothes to my younger brothers and sisters at home...

Ajiao knew, probably where did her parents hear about her. She was doing well in the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion, so she thought of making some money from her. Just when she thought of her younger brothers and sisters at home, Ajiao was really ruthless. After all, they were all her family.

"You won't really want to send money to you stupidly, right?" Xing Yao raised her eyebrows in surprise.

Ajiao opened his lips, feeling a little embarrassed: "I..."

"You are stupid. This is obviously a trick. Ah Jiao, you are almost fourteen, so it's time to consider yourself. If you don't want to be the prince's wife, you should save some money. Otherwise, when you go out at the age of 20, how can you not have some capital?" Xingyao thought through it. Speaking of which, they were lucky to be able to serve the old lady. It's much better than those maids.

Ajiao said: "Let me think about it." She understood how happy it is for poor children to wear new clothes during the Chinese New Year.

Hearing this tone, Xingyao knew that she was soft-hearted. Although Ajiao had a good temperament, she was a little stubborn. She knew that she could not persuade her, so she pushed her with her elbow and said, "Then don't be too stupid, don't send all the money she saved in three years back."

Ajiao smiled, looked up at Xingyao and said, "I know."

After three years in the Duke of Jingguo Mansion, she saved up a full twenty taels of silver. This is a huge wealth for Ajiao. However, she will not treat herself badly. The girl's family should cherish herself. She also pays attention to these things on her daily life. She will not be too frugal with the things she uses on her face. She will not send all the money back if there is nothing at home.

After chatting with Xingyao for a while, Ajiao remembered that he promised the prince yesterday that he would make sweet and sour carp for lunch, so he didn't want to delay and went back to Jitangxuan.

Jitangxuan has her own kitchen. The cooker is a short and fat cook in her forties. Her surname is Liu. She is very friendly and has dark skin. She will reveal her white teeth when she smiles. Looking at Ajiao’s sweet and sour carp, she couldn’t help but praise: “Miss Ajiao is not only good-looking, but she didn’t expect that she would be so good at cooking. Whoever married Ajiao in the future would be blessed.”

Ajiao smiled. She also wanted to marry a good husband in the future and cook delicious meals for her husband every day. Ajiao looked at the sweet and sour carp that was filled with fragrance on the table, but she didn't expect that the first time she cooked for a strange man was for the prince.

At noon, the sixth girl Xiao Yuti also came to Shitangxuan.

It happened to be lunch time, so I used it together at Jitangxuan.

The prince’s food is always particular. When the sixth girl comes, she just adds a pair of dishes and does not even need to add dishes.

It’s good to be young. It’s obvious that my eyes were red when I cried yesterday. Now I’m like a person who is fine, chatting happily with my brother and being so energetic. The prince is a bad person. Most of the time, the sixth girl said and he listened.

The dishes on the table are excellent, full of color, fragrance, and aroma, which is quite attractive. Xiao Yuti looked at the food on the table and was holding chopsticks to pick up sweet and sour fish, but she saw her brother picking up a piece of fish and putting it into her mouth.

To be honest, Ajiao was indeed a little curious about whether the prince liked the dishes she cooked, so she couldn't help but look up. She looked at the sixth girl and smiled and said, "This sweet and sour fish is really delicious."

Ajiao let out a long sigh, and then quietly observed the prince's expression.

No expression.

Ajiao was a little disappointed and slowly lowered his eyes.

Xiao Heng raised his eyes, looked at the little maid silently lowered her head, bent her lips without revealing her traces, and said to her sister: "You are so lucky..." Finally, he continued to add, "This fish was caught by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

For a moment, Xiao Yuti raised her eyebrows and said excitedly: "Is that so? Then I'm really lucky."

The brother and sister were having fun eating, and Ajiao stood aside and felt warm.

Although the prince had no words, Ajiao was already very satisfied. At least the six girls liked her sweet and sour carp.

She bent her lips and thought about her family's affairs, and was in a state of ecstasy when she heard the sixth girl in surprise, saying in confusion: "Brother, don't you only eat two bowls of rice on weekdays? Why do you have such a good appetite today?"
