It snowed heavily for two days in a row. The snowflakes were still falling one by one on the dense foliage trees, and the branches and bodies of the tea bowls on the side of the road finally could not bear the weight of the snowdrifts, and finally broke one after another.
Yue Yao said with a smile: "Ruixue Zhaofeng year, next year will definitely be another year of wind and rain." "The Great Yuan Dynasty has been very good in recent years, there are no major natural disasters, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the world is peaceful.
Yueyao was instructing the maid to get a sketchpad to come over to paint, and Drizzle came over and said, "Girl, Jingning Houfu sent two little maids to the girl." ”
Yue Yao was surprised: "Is it Mrs. Jingning Hou or Mingzhu"
When Yueyao returned to Begonia Garden, she saw two more little girls wearing clothes of the same color in the courtyard. The reason why I say small is because the two of them look more childish, and they look like they are about ten years old. The two little girls are both round-faced and about the same height, but they are not very similar in appearance.
Yueyao looked at Xiang Wei: "Is this what Mingzhu sent over?" Mingzhu sent two little maids to her to do something.
Xiang Wei let Yueyao go into the room first, and let the other idle people push it down. waited for the light before he said: "Girl, these two little maids were not given by Mingzhu, but by the prince." ”
Yueyao became more and more surprised, the good Jingning Hou Shizi suddenly gave her two little maids, and she was not short of maids.
Xiang Wei directly asked the two little girls: "What is your name, how old are you this year, and how long has anyone in the family been practicing martial arts?"
The two maids glanced at each other, and the girl on the left stood up first and said, "Sister Hui, my name is Gu Lan, I am ten years old this year, my parents are here, and I have two brothers, a younger brother and two younger sisters. I've been practicing martial arts since I was four years old, and I've been a little successful by now. ”
The girl on the right also stood up and said: "My name is Gu You, I am also ten years old this year, my father and mother are still alive, and I have an older sister and two younger brothers. I have been practicing martial arts since I was three years old, and my father said that he could barely pass the test. ”
Xiang Wei asked the two little maids to go down, and then said to Yue Yao: "Girl, these two little girls should have been selected by the prince from among the children of those generals in the Hou Mansion. I borrowed my name and sent it to the girl. ”
Xiang Wei saw Yueyao's puzzled face and explained. These generals of the Hou Mansion are actually essentially servants of the Hou Mansion, but these people have a martial arts background, and they are the guards of the Hou Mansion in peacetime, and these people will follow their masters to the battlefield to kill the enemy during the war. If you are lucky, you will be able to get a military career and have a military career.
Yue Yao said worriedly: "Gu Lan and Gu You are willing to follow me sincerely" Yue Yao has always wanted to find someone with a martial arts background, and now these two maids are actually quite concerned about Yue Yao, they are about the same age as her, and they can be intimate when they grow up by their side. It's just that Yueyao is worried that the two of them are not really willing to come over, after all, their parents and family are there, where are they willing to leave their parents.
Xiang Wei smiled: "The girl thinks too much. The prince has already sent the deed over, and these two little maids will be girls' people in the future. What the girl wants to do with them is done. ”
Yue Yao was still a little hesitant.
Xiang Wei said helplessly: "Girls, in fact, they are essentially slaves of the mansion, and the prince wants to give it to the girl, what objection can they have." And there are many children in the family, and the expenses are also large. Sent to the girl, not only is there one less person in the family, but they will also be able to get monthly money to help the family every month in the future, which is good for both parties" With Xiang Wei's understanding of Yueyao, even if there is a deed between these two little maids, it will definitely make the two small

The maid contacted her parents.
Yue Yao thought about it for a while but shook her head and said, "I still have to ask them in person." If they don't want to, you send them back yourself. ”
When the two little maids heard Yueyao say that they were going to send them back, their faces turned white. What Yue Yao didn't know was that these two little maids were selected after layers of selection. This selection is not only martial arts, but also the heart. The two little maids were very happy to be able to come over, but now they were panicked because of Yueyao's words. I'm going back, and I don't know what the future holds.
The two little maids knelt on the ground and said, "Girl, beg the girl not to drive us away." Please, girl. ”
Yueyao's face was a little red, she just didn't want to separate her flesh and blood, so she thought that she had done something bad now. Yueyao said: "I just don't want you to leave your parents and follow me to wronged you." ”
Xiang Wei rolled her eyes beside her. Yueyao herself lost her parents, so she felt that no one else could leave her parents. I don't want to think about it, this big family, with limited income and many children, must not be very well-off, and being a child can not only not share the burden with parents but also help parents, which is not also a filial piety. Xiang Wei knew that she couldn't make sense of Yueyao, so she didn't bother to say it.
Seeing Yueyao hesitating, Xiang Wei said, "The two of you go to Mother Hao and ask her to give you errands." In the morning, you will learn the rules from Hao's mother, and in the afternoon, you will go to the backyard to practice. "Even if a ten-year-old child practices martial arts, he is only a three-legged cat's kung fu, and if he wants to protect Yueyao, he still needs to practice well.
When the two maids saw that Xiang Wei had spoken, a smile appeared on their faces, and they hurriedly said in unison: "Yes." He turned his head to Yue Yao and said, "Thank you, girl, for your grace." ”
Jingning Houfu sent two little maids to Yueyao, and the master of Ma Mansion soon knew. Ma Chengteng didn't think much about it, Xiang Wei is also from the Hou Mansion, and now it is a trivial matter to have two more little maids.
Zhuang Ruolan had some questions, and asked the color painting: "You go and inquire about what Mrs. Jingning Houshizi is doing when she sends two little maids over" Jingning Houfu will definitely not send ordinary maids, it must be a little weird.
Caihua smiled and said, "Madam, the drizzle quietly told me that these two little maids can do kung fu." Drizzle said that in the future, the girl will not worry about being bullied when she goes out. ”
Zhuang Ruolan smiled and said, "I see, how can I send two little maids over when I am the Hou Mansion." "It's not so much about sending maids as it is about sending female guards. The reward given by Jingning Houfu is really different.
After the year, Yueyao received a lot of invitations, but Yueyao's family didn't go. It was only in the New Year that Yueyao went to the Guogong Mansion and met the Mrs. Tai of the Guogong Mansion.
Yue Yao went over, and Mrs. Tai, who accompanied the Guogong Mansion, returned to the Ma Mansion for a long time. It took half a month to paint the portrait of the lady of the Guogong Mansion.
Zhuang Ruolan was the first to see the portrait, nodded and said, "It's exactly the same as Mrs. Tai." I believe Mrs. Tai will like it. ”
When Mrs. Tai of the Guogong Mansion saw this portrait of Yueyao, she liked it very much. Let the maid take the silver ticket now.
Zhuang Ruolan said with a smile: "Mrs. Tai, this kid Yueyao just doesn't want to paint more, so she said a thousand taels of paintings." ”
Seeing this, Mrs. Tai did not give silver, but a set of jewelry. Zhuang Ruolan knew that Mrs. Tai would definitely not let Yueyao suffer, she didn't want the silver, and the elder's reward should still be accepted.
Yueyao opened the box when she got the gift, and was stunned when she saw the reward that Mrs. Tai gave her. Inside the box is a whole set of jewelry, hairpins, hairpins, tables, ears, rings, these jewelry. This set of jasper carved jewelry jade is of high quality, each

The same jewelry is glowing with green light, clear and round, and the workmanship is also extremely fine, which can be said to be a rare boutique among jade jewelry.
Yue Yao said to Zhuang Ruolan: "Cousin-in-law, is this too valuable" This jewelry is worth thousands of gold.
Zhuang Ruolan said with a smile: "I'll take it for you." "Zhuang Ruolan knows that Mrs. Tai has a lot of good things, but usually she doesn't take them out unless she is very fond of her juniors. Even when she got married, the things given by Mrs. Tai were not as good as those in Yueyao's hands. Now that Mrs. Tai can send this set of jewelry, it can be seen that she is extremely satisfied with Yueyao's paintings.
Yue Yao was still a little hesitant.
Zhuang Ruolan said with a smile: "You can rest assured that you can take it." If Mrs. Tai can give it, you can take it. That's what you worked hard for. Zhuang Ruolan really felt that if she could paint a few more paintings, she would definitely be making money every day. It's a pity that Yueyao only paints three times a year.
Yue Yao finally accepted the painting.
When he returned to Begonia Garden, Xiang Wei laughed: "Girl, in the future, you will specialize in painting these noble ladies, so that you will definitely become the richest painter in the future." ”
Yueyao muttered, "I don't want to be the richest painter." "She wants to be the most famous and capable painter.
Xiang Wei smiled.
It's the end of the month in a blink of an eye, and the Ma Mansion is also busy with Lu Ying's marriage. This day is the day when Mafu's relatives came to add makeup to Lu Ying.
There are not many people who come to add makeup to Lu Ying, and the makeup given is not rich. Yueyao's makeup was a pair of gold bracelets, a pair of earrings, and a pair of red gold pomegranate hairpins. It's not too thick, but it's not stingy either.
Yueyao and Lu Ying were not close, and they left Lu Ying's courtyard after delivering the things. Since there is nothing to say, it is better to maintain such a relationship.
Lu Ying thought that Yueyao's painting was worth a thousand taels of silver, but the makeup was so shabby, and she felt that Yueyao had arrived home.
Lu Ying's dowry is also quite good in the general portal. Ma Chengteng said before that he took out 4,000 taels of silver to buy a dowry for Lu Ying, and Xiao Ma also took out more than half of the dowry, making a full 36 lifts.
The reason why 36 lifts are purchased is because the dowry of the second young grandmother of the Zhang family is only 36 lifts, and the daughter-in-law who enters the door later cannot have more dowry than the sister-in-law in front. Just a tie.
The day after Lu Ying got married, Zhuang Ruolan had a seizure, because she gave birth to two before, so the fetus went very well, and she was born before noon, and she was a big fat boy.
Ma Peng's mouth couldn't close when he was holding his son. Although the imperial doctor told Wen Po that nine times out of ten he was a son, it was not a matter of nine times out of ten that he was not born. Now that my son is holding it in my hand, that's the real thing.
It was also a coincidence that less than three quarters of an hour after the child landed, Ma Chengteng's promotion to the right attendant of the Ministry of Industry was also issued. This decree is a matter of ironclad. Because of this coincidence, everyone in the mansion said that the newly-born boy was a blessed.
Zhuang Ruolan smiled when she heard this rumor. Regarding the fact that her father-in-law was going to be promoted, Zhuang Ruolan had already gotten the news. Ma Chengteng was able to get this errand smoothly, and Master Zhuang also worked hard behind his back.
Zhuang Ruolan thought that when her eldest daughter was born, she was said to be a bad thing, but now her son is born is completely different, it is really thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi.
