Chapter 265: Seize the Lord
Du Heng sent Li Qin's sister and brother to the door of the mansion and went back to his home. In a short time, the gates of the Earl's Mansion were opened, and all the people in the front yard stood on both sides to welcome the Earl and the eldest lady into the Mansion.
The butler quickly greeted him, saluted the two siblings, and then led them into the main hall.
The mansion is still new, and there are not too many furnishings, but it also looks atmospheric and simple. I still remember that in the previous life, she came to see everything well, and everything was novel, and she was reluctant to stagger her eyes, but she felt that this Earl's Mansion was really heaven and earth compared to the Hu family in Qingshan Town. Now that I have changed my state of mind, I know how difficult the Earl's Court is now.
The housekeeper served tea to someone, and then said: "The lord has been out for so many days, Mother Li is in suspense day and night, and now that you have returned safely and brought back the eldest lady, Mother Li must be happy." The little one has already asked people to invite Li's mother, and I want to come for a while. ”
Li Qin frowned slightly.
This housekeeper is Li's mother's godson, and Li's mother is Li Ren's nurse. At the beginning, Li Fu was in trouble, but Li's mother never gave up taking care of the young Li Ren. Like Li Qin's wet nurse Qu's mother, Li's mother was also let go before the accident in the Li Mansion. It's just that Mother Li is different from Mother Qu, she has been paying attention to Li Ren's movements, and after being sentenced, she has been following Li Ren's side, scattering her property, and has been protecting Li Ren. Until the Du family found Li Ren, she and Li Ren were always under the shadow of the Du family.
She was a loyal servant. There is nothing wrong with that.
Mother Li had just given birth to her second child, and she was selected from Zhuangzi to enter the mansion and became the nurse of the eldest young master. thought that everything was going well, but who expected that the family would get malaria after a flood, and soon they all died, and she was the only one left in the family. Since then, she has felt even more sorry for Li Ren, although she didn't dare to say such disobedient words as his own son, but she did treat Li Ren well.
Later, in order to take care of Du Heng's convenience, Li's mother recognized a godson, and when she returned to the capital, this godson naturally became the housekeeper in the house.
Mother Li's status in the house is transcendent, coupled with Du Heng's respect, the subordinates treat Mother Li as the same as the housewife, even Li Qin in the previous life, she can't raise her head in front of Mother Li. She admitted that Mother Li had no bad intentions, but she developed the cowardly temperament of their sister and brother-
While talking, Li's mother ran over from behind in a hurry, and as soon as she saw Li Ren, she hugged her arms and talked non-stop. Li Qin tugged at the corners of his mouth, Li Ren is now an earl, but he was beaten by the nurse-
Li Ren seemed to be used to it, and he did not have any objection to Li's mother's approach, but introduced Li Qin to Li's mother very seriously.
Mother Li looked at Li Qin's face for a long time, and then burst into tears.
"It's really a big lady, and her eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as those of the original lady. The mouth and nose are like old men. As he spoke, he wiped away his tears, "The little master has finally found his relatives now." ”
Li Qin gently pulled the corners of his mouth, and then got up and bowed to Mother Li, "Thank you Mother Li for taking care of your little brother over the years, today our sister and brother can imagine it, Mother Li has made a great contribution, Li Qin thank you!" ”
"Ouch, Miss, this can't be helped!" Li's mother hurriedly helped Li Qin up, how to see how Li Qin was innocent, it was not at all like what I had heard before, it was like serving people footwashing water for a few years, and living in a place where birds don't for many years. However, she still touched Li Qin's hand without a trace. Now I breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, her hands are very thick, but they are a few points thicker than her old woman.
Li Qin is white and tender in the mountains, but when she arrives in this prosperous and wealthy capital, except for the temperament she exudes, the rest of the places are still inferior to other young ladies, and even the girls from small families are a little inferior.
Li Qin didn't know what Mother Li was thinking, but when her eyes swept to Yu Fei, she solemnly introduced Yu Fei again.
She claimed to the public that Yu Fei was her savior, but this was also the case.
After a few words of greeting, Mother Li smiled and said, "Two days ago, the Du family also sent a letter, saying that if the lord and the eldest lady come back, please go to the mansion to see General Du." Recently, the northwest has not been very peaceful, and the old general may have to go back soon. ”
Li Ren continued: "It's natural. Brother Du went back by himself just now, and we have to pack up, and we should go to see it the day after tomorrow at the latest. There is also the palace, now that my sister is back, why should I report to the inside. ”
Li Qin nodded, "I think it's not too late to go to Du Jiayi, so let's do it, Mother Li, we brought some specialties from the north, and we have to bother you to pack them." In addition, look at what is still missing, please help us to buy it completely, so as not to lose the etiquette of going to the Du family. ”
Li Qin's words made Li's mother a little stunned. It's really that she is used to commanding others, and now she has only raised her head, and before she can say what to do, Li Qin ordered. She hadn't felt like this in a long time.
"Yes." Mother Li couldn't hold back the strangeness in her heart, "It's not too early, the eldest lady and Yu Gongzi will go back to the room to freshen up and rest first, and then we will have dinner later." ”
"Then I'll bother Mother Li." Li Qin gave a gentle salute, which was so decent that even Li's mother couldn't say anything.
The maid who took Li Qin to the yard was called Qiu Yue, and she was also her maid in the previous life. It's just that Qiu Yue doesn't know her at this time, only Li Qin is alone in her heart, and she doesn't understand what happened to this new master.
Qiu Yue introduced everything in this house to Li Qin as she walked, which warmed Li Qin's heart little by little.
After the front yard and the garden, this is the backyard. In the backyard of a few courtyards, Li Qin's residence is called Fanglan Garden. However, Li Ren and Yu Fei live in the front yard, and now in the backyard, in addition to her, Li's mother has a separate yard.
When you enter your own courtyard, you will see a small pond surrounded by orchids of various colors, which does not live up to the name of this Fang Lan Garden.
Qiu Yue led Li Qin into the courtyard, and a group of subordinates were already waiting there.
In addition to Qiu Yue, Li Qin also has a first-class maid, three second-class maids, and six third-class maids, each of whom performs their own duties, and is no different from his previous life.
Li Qin handed Qiu Yue a money bag and asked her to assign it according to her personal position, which was also a gift for the master and servant to meet for the first time.
Another first-class maid is in charge of everything in Li Qin's inner courtyard, **Hua. She ordered someone to give Li Qin a bath, and asked someone to serve her to take a bath, so she bowed down and retreated.
