Xie An didn't see Xie Zhishu when he entered Xie Mansion, but Mrs. Xie saw her in the flower hall in the inner courtyard.

Although it is not yet the winter solstice, the capital is already cold. Fortunately, there is a dragon burning in the flower hall, and as soon as you enter, it makes people feel like spring.

Xie An had never seen Mrs. Xie before, but just looked at the woman in the main seat wearing a big red silk jacket and a red skirt, for fear that people would not know that she was the mistress of this house. Her hair is curled into a bun, with two phoenix hairpins on it, and if you look closely, you can see that each tail of this phoenix hairpin is strung with small pearls, and the phoenix body is gold, and it is inlaid with gold rubies. This high-profile dress can't help but remind Xie An of Wang Xifeng in the Red Mansion.

"Mother." Xie Anbang's words interrupted Xie Anyi's train of thought, and she reacted at this time, thinking about Mama Zhou's words before, and knelt down to bow four times. The eldest lady bowed back to Xie An, looked at her carefully, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen the seventh sister for a long time, and all of them are big girls this time." ”

"But no, people say that the eighteenth change of women's college, you look at our seventh sister, isn't it getting better and better?" It should be Xie Anbang's wife Liu who said this, although she said Xie Anbang in her mouth, but her eyes kept glancing at Xie Anbang.

Seeing this, Xie An was busy with the second bow, and Liu hurriedly said: "No, no, the seventh sister is her own family, so let's do a blessing ceremony." ”

Xie An also performed a blessing ceremony, and after Liu returned the gift, he pulled her to the eldest lady and said: "Mother, you see how much the seventh sister has changed, this ceremony is comprehensive, and it looks dignified, and this draft girl will be able to do it." ”

The eldest lady was obviously very satisfied with Xie Anyi's changes, nodded, and asked about Weicheng and the situation along the way with a smile. After she had answered them one by one, the eldest lady asked her to go back and rest.

Liu was very enthusiastic and volunteered to take Xie An to her courtyard in Xie's mansion. The courtyard is a little far away from the hospital, but the environment is excellent, and you can smell the fragrance of plum blossoms from afar, which is quiet and elegant.

"I picked this yard for Seventh Sister, although it is a little off, but Jing'er is the best in the whole house. Thinking that you love beauty, you don't even need incense to live here......" Liu Shi covered his mouth with a handkerchief and quipped.

"My good sister-in-law, I haven't appreciated Mei for a long time, and I want to thank my sister-in-law for making it perfect." Anyone can say nice things, but Xie An has really not seen plum blossoms for a long time, and the pace of modern life is so fast, how can there be spare time to be vassal.

"By the way, if you are not satisfied with the name of this courtyard, you can change it again. You think about it, find a maid to tell me, and I will let the craftsman do it and hang it up. ”

Xie An also looked up at the courtyard door, "Meihan Courtyard? Xie An couldn't help but read aloud.

"Yes, the name of this courtyard is said to have been given by a nobleman." After Liu finished speaking, he took Xie Anyi's hand and walked to the main room in the courtyard.

"There are a few plums in the corner, and Ling Han opens it alone. I know that it is not snow, but there is a dark fragrance. It's a great name, and I like it. Xie An also said with a smile.

The name of this courtyard can't be changed, as soon as she is a guest, she will enter the palace soon, how can she change the name of the master's courtyard at will. Second, this courtyard is named by a nobleman, if she changes it at will, isn't it a handle?

"If you like it, if you like it, if you like it." Liu said with a smile. She took Xie An into the main house, and saw that the maids and mothers-in-law had already packed up, so she gave two more instructions and was about to get up and say goodbye.

Before leaving, he called a little maid over and said to Xie Anye: "When you first came to the capital, you must have known nothing about the trivial matters in the capital. I have a little maid here, although it is inconspicuous, but very clever, you stay by your side, you can also take care of something. Before Xie Anyi could speak, she said to the little maid: "Xiaomei, you will serve Miss Seven in the future, she will enter the palace in the future, maybe she will be a noble person in the future, but there must be no difference." ”

Xiaomei replied, "Yes, madam." I will serve Miss Seven wholeheartedly, and I will never dare to make a difference of half a point. ”

Xie An also saw that the master and servant sang such a double reed, and he couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, but there was a faint look on his face. Steadily accepted Xiaomei's gift, and thanked the Liu family before sending the great god away.

Later, Mama Zhou came in and sent Xiaomei to Mama Zhou to take away.

……

In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

On this day, Xie An was also wandering around the courtyard, and suddenly remembered that he had never seen the owner of this place for so many days, the legendary Great Bo Xie Shu. Even the eldest lady didn't see her a few times, and even the morning and dusk province exempted her. The one I saw the most was the grandmother Liu. It's strange to say that this grandmother is in charge of the house's chores inside and out, but she has a lot of time to hang around with her every day.

In this way, Xie An also has to learn etiquette with Mama Zhou every day, but also has to deal with the Liu family with a twelve-point spirit, and there are hardships.

On this day, Xie An had just sent off her grandmother, and Mama Zhou came to talk about the rules of the draft girl.

"Girl, it's going to be selected after the New Year, so we have to cheer up. When the time comes, the old slave will not be able to accompany you, and everything will depend on you to decide. Mama Zhou said bitterly again.

Xie Anyi had long been accustomed to her broken thoughts recently, and nodded helplessly. She was thinking about a way to let Mama Zhou rest for two days, when Aimo's voice came from outside the door: "Girl, the second grandmother of the Yuwen family has sent you a post." ”

The second grandmother of the Yuwen family? Xie An also thought about it for a long time before remembering that it was Meng Yuting! She hurriedly asked Aimo to send the post in.

It turned out that after the Meng family returned to Beijing, Xiaori never came, and even found three doctors and said that she was happy! This good news made the entire Yuwen family happy, and the old lady Yuwen wanted to invite the ladies of all families to gather to celebrate. Although Meng was tightly protected and could not attend this banquet, he still told the old lady about meeting Xie Anyi on the road and gave her a post.

Xie An was also very happy, first, she was really happy for that Meng, and second, she really wanted to find a chance to go out for a walk. Thinking of this, she wanted to get up and change her clothes to find the eldest lady, but she didn't expect that the eldest lady had not changed yet, so the eldest lady sent the maid around her to pass the word, saying that she knew about Yuwen's second grandmother giving her a post, and asked her to go with the eldest grandmother Liu in a few days.

At this time, Xie An didn't know that her reputation had spread all over the women in Beijing.
