After Xiao Fubao's Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital Chapter 285

Chapter 285 Call the shots

Qin Jingshu's body stiffened.

Niu Niu patted her shoulder and said, "Sister Qin, laugh if you want to, don't laugh if you don't want to, don't embarrass yourself."

Qin Jingshu just wanted to smile exaggeratedly. When she heard this, she restrained her smile. She told herself in her heart that she was rebelling against her mother by not smiling.

Qin Jingshu seemed to be venting her anger and ate several pieces of pastry in one go. After careful calculation, she ate more than Niu Niu.

Niuniu ate in small bites and did not stop her. When Qin Jingshu was devouring it, she reminded her to slow down and not choke.

"I...I haven't eaten so happily for a long time, and my family won't let me eat more." Qin Jingshu said.

Niuniu asked: "When I visited a wealthy family, I saw cakes placed on the table all year round. Your mother didn't let you eat them, so who ate these cakes?"

Qin Jingshu shook her head and said, "What the rest of the family eats, what the servants eat, but I can't eat. My mother is afraid that I will get fat if I eat too much."

"Can't we eat more serious meals?" Niu Niu couldn't help but ask.

Qin Jingshu nodded sadly: "I get fat easily. My mother said I don't look good if I get fat."

Niuniu asked again: "Then you usually don't have enough to eat?"

Qin Jingshu nodded and said, "Actually, it's good to get used to it... As your appetite becomes smaller, you won't feel so hungry as often..."

Niu Niu looked at her distressedly.

In Niuniu's view, family is the most important thing, followed by filling her stomach. She feels that Qin Jingshu is really pitiful. Her family treats her badly, and she can't even eat happily. It's like being in jail in the Xianguo Palace.

Qin Jingshu asked: "Isn't your mother afraid that you will gain weight?"

Niu Niu shook her head: "My mother said that it is best for little girls to be chubby. This is called blessing."

Qin Jingshu was very envious after hearing this. Being slim is something you should only consider when you grow up. Most children of this age are greedy at heart.

"Then you go out and eat more when you are not in front of your mother." Niu Niu suggested.

Qin Jingshu was overjoyed when she heard this, but after a moment she said, "It won't work. People sent by my mother have been watching me and will remind me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Jingshu's maid's voice came from outside the rockery: "Miss, it's time for you to come out. You have been in there for a long time and you have to talk to other ladies. You can't always talk to one person."

Qin Jingshu's maid wanted to remind her a long time ago, but Shen Ling's maid kept stopping her. For such a long time, she couldn't stop her.

"I'm going out." Qin Jingshu glanced at the plate of pastries in Niu Niu's hand reluctantly, and then at the fake cave.

Niu Niu said in confusion: "Aren't all maids listening to the young lady? Why do I want you to listen to her?"

"As a maid, if I do something wrong, she will file a complaint with my mother." Qin Jingshu said helplessly.

"Then is she your maid or your mother's maid?" Niu Niu asked.

Qin Jingshu couldn't answer for a moment. She had never realized that her life was so suffocating.

"Do all the maids in your family obey you?" Qin Jingshu asked.

"Of course my maidservant must listen to me, but I only have one maidservant. She is two years older than me, and I don't often ask her to serve." Niu Niu explained.

Niu Niu secretly regards the crazy girl as her sister, so her maid is only Qi Yatou, the daughter of Mrs. Qi. Qi Yatou is only eight years old. She is not like a maid serving Niu Niu, but more like a playmate.

"Maybe she is doing it for your own good..." Niu Niu whispered. Qin Jingshu said without hesitation: "She is not doing it for my own good! She is doing it for the family, for me to marry well in the future and to be a glorious family member!"

Niu Niu frowned slightly, feeling that the person Qin Jingshu was talking about was not referring to the maid outside, but to someone else. Niu Niu said cautiously: "Guangyao Menlin, Brother Qin Jing is about to pass the Jinshi examination. He has already Guangyao Menlin, and so do you." Can you relax..."

Qin Jingshu slowly shook her head, her face uncertain.

The maid outside the rockery was still urging him one after another.

Niu Niu took her purse and put a few cakes for her and said: "She keeps urging you to eat it secretly..."

Qin Jingshu understood Niuniu's kindness, but she didn't want to accept it. Would she have to be stared at by the maid all the time? Listening to the maid's voice one after another, she just felt that she was lower than the maid. She should be her own master instead of letting a girl ride on her neck.

Qin Jingshu stood up and walked out of the rockery, and saw Shen Ling's maid stopping her own.

"Masters are playing inside, why do you have to keep disappointing them?" Shen Ling's maid had a look of incomprehension on her face.

But the maid Qin Jingshu brought was very insistent.

Qin Jingshu said politely to Shen Ling's maid: "Sister, my maid and I have something to say, please excuse me."

Shen Ling's maid immediately nodded and took a few steps away.

When no one else was around, Qin Jingshu's maid immediately whispered: "Miss, you are too indulgent today. If Madam knows..."

But Qin Jingshu said: "Presumptuous!"

The maid was stunned when she heard this.

Qin Jingshu stared at her and said, "It's not your turn to talk about my affairs."

The maid took a deep breath: "Madam sent me to keep an eye on the young lady. I want you to be careful in your words and deeds, and not to do anything that would disgrace the reputation of the Duke's family. Madam is your mother, and she will not harm you..."

When Qin Jingshu heard this, she felt so uncomfortable that she almost cried. It was like she would do something immoral if no one was watching her. She was only six years old, what kind of scandal could she do?

As for the maid in front of her, she claimed to be a wife, but in fact she was just enjoying the pleasure of bullying her master as someone below.

"Shut up!" Qin Jingshu scolded with a low face.

The maid felt that Qin Jingshu had changed today and was not as obedient as before. She looked past Qin Jingshu and towards the rockery inside, where she met Niu Niu's eyes.

"Miss, did someone say something to you? If Madam knew, you listened to those unreasonable people outside..."

Qin Jingshu said: "I told you to shut up, don't you understand?"

The maid was forced to shut up.

Qin Jingshu continued: "Miss Gu is my friend, you are not allowed to speak ill of her!"

Although the maid did not speak, her eyes were unruly.

Qin Jingshu was already smart, but now she was awakened by Niu Niu's words. If the people around her don't listen to her, then they will continue to soak in the bitter water in the future and be watched by others no matter what they do. What's the point of such a life.

"You go to Baiweifang and buy a variety of pastries. I want to give them to my friends." Qin Jingshu casually found something to send the maid.

The maid looked unhappy and said, "Miss, Baiweifang is far away. I went to buy pastries. Who will serve you? You only took me out today."
