Mu Hibiscus cautiously looked at the door, and when he saw that no one was coming, he touched the things on the table with confidence, and the string of money and an agate ring that had been placed on the table just now immediately disappeared. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This was just sent by the eldest lady to send the palace satin to the third lady, and the third lady rewarded her, although it was less, but it would be good to have it, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat.

She wore this body eight years ago, and when she wore it, this body was sold to the Earl's Mansion of Zhongyong by her poor family, and the little girl just arrived at the Earl's Court, because she missed her family and was bullied, she became ill, and hung up after a high fever, and then she wore it.

Her crossing was an accident, because she didn't deserve to die, but the underworld staff accidentally hooked the wrong soul during their work, because her original body had been found to be out of breath and pulled to cremation, and it was inconvenient to send her back, so she was sent to her in this parallel time and space, at that time, this body had reached the end of its life, and the soul was hooked away by the underworld, but no one had found out that she was hanging, and it was perfect to arrange her over.

It should be noted that because it was caused by the mistakes of the underworld, and the living standards, life expectancy, etc. in her previous life were much higher than in this era, she obviously suffered a loss when she came here, so the underworld made some compensation to her in order to keep her from making trouble.

It's like the poor medical conditions in ancient times, she was afraid that she would hang up at every turn, and the average life expectancy in ancient times was low, and people aged fast, she suffered too much, so the underworld staff gave her a cultivation method to strengthen her body, saying that after cultivation, not only will her body get better, she will not be easy to get sick, but also can prolong her life, ensuring that she can live to the average life expectancy of the original world, not as easy to age as people in this era, of course, it is only to this extent, it is not a cultivation method, not even the internal strength of the martial arts world, it is only used to strengthen the body。

It's like she mixed well in the original world, and she has a lot of property - she foresaw that housing prices would rise early in the original world, and bought a small two-bedroom house in a first-tier city early, although it is a small second bedroom, it is now worth millions, and then she still has hundreds of thousands of savings - and in this world, because she has become a five-year-old child who has just been sold, except for a meager and negligible monthly money, there is no other source of income, that is to say, all her net worth is simply incomparable with the original.

So the officials of the prefecture, according to the price of gold and grain on both sides (there was nothing else to use as a reference), gave her compensation of almost the same value—six hundred taels of gold.

In the Great Zhou of this time and space, silver also has a tendency to pour in and depreciate, so one tael of gold can be exchanged for 12 taels of silver, that is, these six hundred taels of gold are worth more than seven thousand taels of silver.

There is so much silver, it is estimated that it is the girls in this mansion, and there are not so much, after all, this Loyal and Brave Earl's Mansion is a down-and-out noble mansion, and the family business has almost been defeated, and even the masters are very tight, so she is equivalent to becoming one of the richest people in this Earl's Mansion all of a sudden.

But so much gold suddenly appeared, and she had no secret place to hide, and when it was exposed, she would not be able to tell where it came from, so the other party gave her a small space at the same time - this was also to make up for the unfortunate encounter of her becoming a slave - although it was very small, only 1 cubic meter, and could not hold a living animal, but it was enough, as long as there was a place to store valuables, she was satisfied.

Although she was sold to the Earl's Mansion by her family, but fortunately, it was not a death contract, but a ten-year contract, if it was a death contract, she would really have nowhere to cry, because in that case, if she wanted to become a free body, she didn't know how much strength she had to make to do it, instead of being free, when she was old, she would be like a pig, cow and sheep, let the master match the little girl, and then give birth to a child, that is, the family will give birth to a child, continue to be a slave, Mom, think about that day, she will eat a bayberry and be quiet.

It's okay now, it's just a living contract, after ten years, she can still live a civilian life, not a slave.

In order to get out of the house smoothly, she has been very cautious in the past eight years, for fear that if she is not careful, she will be pulled down and killed by a master, and she will lose her life.

Fortunately, I was lucky, and I passed eight years smoothly, and in another two years, I will be able to get out of the house smoothly, and I can't help but be happy when I think of this hibiscus.

Thinking of the three or four hundred taels of silver she has saved from her monthly money and rewards over the years, she can't help but be even happier when she can buy some fields and live a well-off life - the big head's more than seven thousand taels of silver is inconvenient to sell at first, after all, she is a small girl, and she has so much money to buy land, isn't it to arouse suspicion, so she plans to slowly buy a few more acres of land every year to melt into it, and leave it in her hands for emergency if she doesn't use it up, after all, it is not as safe as it is now, in case the harvest of the field is not good or something happens in any year, there is still silver in her hand to live.

Three or four hundred taels of silver is naturally not much in Beijing, a place full of dignitaries and nobles, and those dignitaries will not be taken into account, but in a small place in the countryside, there are still a lot, and the interest from the real estate she bought is enough for her to spend a year.

In addition, after her continuous efforts, now she is the second-class maid ring next to the eldest lady, a month of money, plus a reward, and a reward for the New Year's holidays, she can earn almost thirty taels of silver a year, although these are very few, and the eldest lady has more than this money for a bracelet, but Hibiscus knows that her status is very different from that of those nobles, so she has never been jealous, after all, her identity is there, and she can't be jealous, and it is serious to live a good life.

In fact, she has more than 7,000 taels of silver by her side, and she works so hard, not for the dozens of taels of silver that year, but for the sake of buying land and getting money in the future so that people will not be suspicious, after all, if she does not struggle, she has been a rough maid, and when she goes out of the house and takes out a few hundred taels to buy land, then don't make people wonder where her silver came from? Second, of course, the main reason is that she wants to make life better.

Do rough Yahuan or third-class Yahuan, etc., a bunch of people on the top are in charge, a bunch of things are done in their hands, often busy feet do not touch the ground, and they are beaten and scolded at every turn, this day is naturally not good, and to become a second-class Yahuan or a first-class Yahuan, there are fewer people in charge of the above, and they can manage people, life is much better, and the place to live is much better, which is the reason for Hibiscus's struggle.

Hearing the sound of footsteps outside, Mu Hibiscus dusted off his sleeves, came out of the house, and went to the courtyard of the eldest lady. ”

Mu Hibiscus nodded and said with a smile: "You didn't listen to the orders in the courtyard, where are you going?"

"When a guest comes, my wife has instructed me to call all the girls in the house. "Bai Ling Dao.

It seems that some distinguished guests have come, otherwise they would not have let all the girls in the house pass.

As for the important guests, the only thing Mu Hibiscus can think of is someone from the Chengen Mansion, because the other party handed over a post two days ago, saying that he was coming today.

When I entered the courtyard of the eldest lady, I inquired with Lilac, who had a good relationship and was also a second-class girl, and sure enough, it was so.

"Duchess Chengen came, saying that she wanted to meet a few girls in our house, and it seemed that she wanted to show the girls to their sons. Lilac gossiped as she busily prepared something for refreshments.

Cheng Engong is the maiden family of Empress Dowager Zheng.

In the Great Zhou system, the queen's maiden family was crowned marquis, and the queen mother's family was crowned duke.

Because before the Empress Dowager Zheng's son Emperor Yonghe ascended the throne, the Empress Dowager Zheng was only a concubine, not a queen, so this Cheng'en Mansion did not become the Cheng'en Mansion before, but a few years ago when the new emperor ascended the throne, the Cheng'en Mansion was sealed.

Although it is a nouveau riche, it is often not like the big family with complete rules, thoughtful etiquette, and often makes a lot of jokes, and some people may laugh at it in private, but on the surface, because it is the queen mother's family, it is also hot, and everyone climbs it, such as the Earl's Mansion of Zhongyong is one of them - to be exact, it is the big house that wants to climb the Cheng'en Mansion.

The Earl's Mansion of Zhongyong was originally awarded the title of Marquis for his military merits, but with the death of the Marquis, the current Mrs. Li was demoted to inherit the title of Earl, and decades have passed, because the descendants of the Li family are not very promising, and the Earl's Mansion of Zhongyong is declining day by day.

In the face of this situation, the Earl of Zhongyong's Mansion naturally wants to go to the Cheng'en Mansion, and if the Queen Mother can give the Emperor a few good words to the Earl's Mansion of Zhongyong, not to mention the promotion of the title, but when the old lady Li passes away, when the old man Li attacks the lord, it is good if he can not demote the knighthood. Because of this extravagant hope, Mrs. Li naturally devoted herself to the Chengen Mansion.

When the cloves were ready, they went in with Hibiscus and a few other second-class maids with refreshments and fruits.

Hibiscus laid the fruit plate on the table, and then stood aside, observing the visitors and waiting for orders, and waiting for the girls to come and observe this ancient blind date.
