MTL - I-Chapter 20 020 [Young Lady Lou's]
Chapter 20 020 [Young Mrs. Lou]
Zhao Han finally met the legendary Mrs. Ling.
He looks good, and his figure is not bad, but he is a bit put on airs.
"Governor, I will come to E Lake in a few days, and I want to sit in our Jingxing Garden. The young lady ordered me to choose a few capable servants to serve the governor..."
"What kind of person is the governor? That is the Wenqu star descending from the sky. You low-spirited brats who have been able to serve the governor have been burned for several lifetimes! Let me put the ugly words first, and if anything goes wrong, I will personally break his leg..."
"Fei'an, Feilong, the day the governor climbed Ehu Mountain, the two of you followed and served..."
Jiu Po was standing next to Zhao Han, and said in a low voice at this moment: "Fei An used to be called Ling An, and was Madam Ling's natal nephew. Fei Long was also the young master's servant in the past. It's called Jian Dan, and it has been changed back to its original name."
Well, Qin Xin, Sword Gallbladder and Wine Pore used to belong to the job titles, and they have to be changed when they exceed the age.
Zhao Han asked curiously: "Since the sword gall is here, what about the piano heart and wine soul of the previous generation?"
Jiu Po replied in detail: "Qin Xin went to Hanzhu Academy and worked as a teaching assistant in the academy. In Ehu Town, I work as the deputy shopkeeper of a shop, and I can get six taels of silver every month. I am also a wine soul, and I want to go to the shop in the future. If everything goes well in the accounting room outside of the year, you can be promoted to deputy shopkeeper in five years. If you become the full shopkeeper one day, you will be able to earn twelve taels a month!"
Zhao Han instantly understood that Fei Yinghuan, as the young master, could let his people out to take over the family business step by step!
While the two muttered, Mrs. Ling had already made arrangements.
The people in charge of logistics and purchasing are all her confidantes, so there is obviously lucrative money to be made.
The person in charge of serving her left and right is either her confidant or Fei Yinghuan's key training object. She also intentionally left a small number of places, and will not announce it to the public for the time being, waiting for those who are willing to pay tribute to come to work.
The lecture is over, and everyone returns to each place.
Qin Xin, Jian Dan, and Jiu Po wanted to hear the story of killing thieves, so they surrounded Zhao Han and his sister back to the house.
Zhao Han didn't immediately brag, but asked: "I'm new here, so it's understandable that I didn't have an appointment. Why did the three brothers, who have long been the young master's confidantes, get nothing this time?"
Qin Xin's expression was quite proud, and she sneered disdainfully: "She is also worthy of us?"
Jiu Po explained: "The errands of the three of us are all handled by the inner court in person. We just eat and live in the Zhongqin Yuan. By the way, who led the elder brother to live in?"
"The fragrance of ink." Zhao Han replied.
Jian Dan said with a smile: "Brother is the same as us, he is his own person, he is only sent by the inner court, so don't be afraid of Mrs. Ling."
Jiu Po added another sentence: "But don't provoke her easily."
"She has a great background? A domestic slave, how dare she call herself a wife." Zhao Han was a little curious.
Jiu Po looked back and found that the door had been closed, gossiped in a low voice: "She used to be the maid of the old lady, she was loved by the old lady, and she was even raised as a half daughter. When the young lady was pregnant, the old lady took care of her The purpose of sending her to Jing Xingyuan was to warm the bed for the young master as a concubine. The young lady was not happy, and forcibly betrothed her to Guanshi Fei, who was only the young master's schoolboy at that time."
"The old lady won't say anything if the young lady does this?" Zhao Han asked.
Jian Dan couldn't help gossiping: "The old madam is naturally angry, and she can't keep up with her face. But the young madam is also very angry, and even went back to her mother's house with a big belly. The young master took a boat for a day and a night before chasing her back!"
Zhao Han felt very interesting, like watching a costume drama.
A servant girl, she managed to win the favor of the old lady, and went to serve the young master as she wished. Taking advantage of his wife's pregnancy, he didn't know how to persuade the old lady. She could be a concubine for the young master, but she was betrothed by the wife to the school boy!
Heart is higher than sky, life is thinner than paper.
This Mrs. Ling obviously still dreams of being a wife. Although the dream cannot come true, she can enjoy **** in front of her slaves.
…
Another two days.
Fei Yinghuan received a call from Henglin's ancestral house, hurried to Hekou Town, and accompanied the governor of Jiangxi the whole way.
Brother and sister Zhao Han, do nothing for the time being, eat and sleep well every day.
The matter of being a book boy for the young master seems to have been forgotten, and the little sister has no arrangements for the time being.
But, the story of Young Master Fei's **** battle against the rebels, Xingzhi went to the battlefield to enjoy the moon, has quickly spread from the Zhongqin Academy to the inner courtyard.
And add more oil and vinegar, and evolve into various versions!
On this day, the maid Mo Xiang suddenly came over and said with a smile on her face, "Brother Han, Young Madam is here to invite you."
Zhao Han told the younger sister not to run around, and said, "Please lead the way, sister."
Following Mo Xiang, she left the Zhongqin Courtyard, passed through an aisle full of green bamboos, stepped into an arched door, and came to the inner courtyard.
Passing through the small courtyard, making seven turns and eight turns along the corridor, and soon entered a small hall.
Mo Xiang stood at the door of the small hall, and said to another maid: "Sister Yingchun, I'm here."
The maid Yingchun said: "Go on your own."
Her maid, Mo Xiang, bowed to leave immediately.
Yingchun glanced at Zhao Han, said blankly, "Come with me."
Young Madam's personal maid, it seems difficult to deal with, Zhao Han kept his mouth shut the whole time.
Yingchun lifted the curtain and led Zhao Han into the hall inside.
The youngest grandmother, Lou Shi, was sitting at the table flipping through something, picking up a brush to write and draw from time to time.
"Mother, my daughter brought me here." Yingchun finally smiled.
The word "mother" of course does not mean mother, but the affectionate address for the master by the servants of the inner courtyard.
Ms. Lou put down the brush, turned around, and ordered: "Make a cup of tea for my little brother."
"Yes." Yingchun bowed and stepped back.
Lou's demeanor was gentle and dignified, and he treated Zhao Han very kindly. He smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, sit down and talk."
"Thank you ma'am!" Zhao Han sat down with his hands folded.
Mr. Lou was quite satisfied with this, and nodded in approval: "Not afraid of life, not showing timidity, calm demeanor, indeed better than family-born children."
Zhao Han said: "Madam is absurd."
Seeing that he behaved decently at such a young age, Mrs. Lou couldn't help asking, "What does your family do for a living?"
Zhao Han repeated the original lie: "Returning to Madam, the boy came from a Confucian family, and my father is a Juren in Wuqing County, Bazhou Prefecture. Because of his integrity, although my father won the election, he refused the villagers to vote. The poor family could not survive the famine this year. When my family was fleeing, it was ransacked by horse bandits, and my little sister and I were the only ones left in the family."
"My father is an honest and honest person, which is admirable," Lou sighed, "Your brothers and sisters are also pitiful for living in a foreign land at a young age."
Zhao Han said: "Everyone has his own destiny, so don't blame heaven."
A ten-year-old child behaved so calmly, Lou liked it more and more. She asked, "Is it true that Duliu Town attacked the thieves at night?"
Zhao Han smiled and said, "Half-truth, half-false."
"Oh?" Lou was a little surprised, "Which ones are true and which ones are false?"
Zhao Han said: "The boy was weak at the time, and his sister was also sick, so he didn't follow the son to kill the enemy. The reason why he said that was because the boy was new here and he was afraid of being bullied by other servants. As for the strategy to defeat the enemy, it is also the son. for."
Mr. Lou thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Don't put stickers on the young master's face. If he really came up with a plan, he would have said it countless times."
"It may be the young master offering advice," Zhao Han reminded, "I heard that the governor is coming soon."
Mr. Lou could not help but smile even more happily: "At a young age, you have seven orifices, and you are worthy of coming from a family of Confucianism. You are so outstanding, and your younger sister must be not bad. Let her live in the inner courtyard tomorrow."
"Thank you Madam for your support." Zhao Han was very happy.
Mr. Lou said: "As for you, the young master has other arrangements, and you can live in Zhongqinyuan with peace of mind first."
Zhao Han said: "The boy is always on call."
The maid Yingchun finally made the tea, put it down and said, "Please take it slowly, little brother."
Zhao Han said: "Thank you, sister."
Mr. Lou said to Yingchun: "Brother Han is new here, give him two taels of silver as a meeting gift."
Two taels of silver?
Yingchun was a little surprised, she couldn't help but look at Zhao Han a few more times, and went to prepare to pack the money.
Mr. Lou began to talk about family affairs again, asking Zhao Han if he was used to eating and living, and whether he was suitable for the climate in Jiangxi, as if he was the elder of Zhao Han's family.
Finally, Yingchun brought the packet.
Lou said with a smile: "This is a meeting gift, take it to tea."
Zhao Han immediately stood up and bowed: "Thank you Madam for the reward, I will take my leave first."
"Go." Lou smiled.
Yingchun changed his previous expressionless face and always had a smile on his face. Not only did he send Zhao Han out of the small hall, he even sent him to the gate of the inner courtyard himself.
"Brother Han," Yingchun suddenly warned, "If you encounter difficult matters, and you can't enter the inner court, you can't see the young master and young wife, you can go to Zhong Liang from the Zhongqin Court."
Zhao Han cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, sister, for your reminder."
Back to Zhongqinyuan, Zhao Han first found Jiu Po, and inquired about the news.
Jiu Po opened the window and pointed to an old servant who was watering a big tree: "Here, he is Zhong Liang, who works full-time as a sweeper and waterer of Zhongqinyuan and Cuizhu Lane."
"Are you familiar with him?" Zhao Han asked again.
Jiu Po smiled and said: "An old guy who sweeps the floor and waters the water, why should I know him well?"
Well, even Jiu Po doesn't know, there is an old servant here who is the eyeliner of the inner courtyard.
The young mistress, Mrs. Lou, obviously knows everything about Zhongqinyuan, including the wife of Steward Fei who considers herself his wife.
There are two reasons for not turning back:
First, Guanshi Fei was born as a school boy of Fei Yinghuan.
Second, Mrs. Ling was born as an old lady's maid.
One day Fei's old lady, Fei Yinghuan's own mother, kicks her legs and dies, and the young grandmother Lou will definitely tear her face apart!
Zhao Han pondered carefully, whether he was the eldest master or the young mistress Lou's?
