Xiao sweetly ate a breakfast, saw that no one saw it, rubbed her stomach, and sighed: "It's delicious, miss, if you want me to choose between Mama Yun and Mama Ding, I must choose Mama Yun." You can't do without flowers, and you can't skip food. ”

"You're really." Chu Lingfeng took a cup of tea and sat down opposite her: "But that's right, no matter where you are, it's not a bad thing to have a good relationship with the cook." ”

Please An doesn't have to go every day, marry into a rich and noble family, don't worry about a little firewood, rice, oil and salt, Chu Lingfeng has nothing, and there is a lot of leisure time left.

After breakfast, Chu Lingfeng called Honglan over.

"Grandma." This girl was very silent, or rather, the silence made Chu Lingfeng feel a little arrogant. Although he seemed to be respectful, except for following behind Chu Lingfeng, he didn't show any goodwill.

"Yes." Chu Lingfeng took a sip of tea and said, "Honglan, how long have you been in this mansion?" ”

"It's been six years." Honglan said: "I followed the eldest lady when I was thirteen, and I am nineteen this year. ”

"Six years ......" Chu Lingfeng paused: "The eldest lady must be very good to you." ”

"Yes." Honglan lowered her eyes and said: "The eldest lady is a good person and is very kind to her subordinates. ”

"Yes." Chu Lingfeng smiled: "I think so too. Then since you are the person next to the eldest lady, you should be able to trust if you want to come, so there are some things I want to ask you. ”

"What does Grandma want to ask me?" Honglan rules and regulations: "I still know some things in the Xue Mansion, I must know everything, and I must say everything." ”

"Oh, it's not Xue Mansion's business." Chu Lingfeng said: "I know almost everything I can inquire about about the affairs of the Xue Mansion. If you can't find out, you may not know. What I want to ask is actually about the eldest wife, you are the eldest lady's personal maid, you must know something that others don't know. For example, why did the eldest lady choose me as a daughter-in-law, and for example, how did the eldest lady persuade the Xue family, or ...... Why did the eldest lady not leave the door after I entered? ”

Every time Chu Lingfeng said a word, Honglan's face changed, and although she finally restrained herself, she was still a little unnatural.

"Huh?" Chu Lingfeng raised his eyes and looked at Honglan who was standing in front of him: "Since ancient times, it has not been easy for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to get along well, so I want to know more about my mother-in-law, so that I can know how to be a good daughter-in-law." It was not in vain for the eldest lady's lift. ”

Choosing her to be the daughter-in-law of the Xue family, isn't this a promotion?

Honglan thought that Chu Lingfeng, who had just arrived, should have a good understanding of the intricate relationship between the various rooms in the Xue Mansion, but she didn't expect to ask Xia Meixue when she opened her mouth, and sentence by sentence, so direct and sharp.

After being silent for a while, Honglan said: "Grandma Daxiao, although I have been with the eldest lady for many years, I am just a maid, and I don't dare to say much about it when I only serve on weekdays." So I don't know anything about what you're asking. ”

"I don't know the same?" Chu Lingfeng's tone was quite calm: "The personal maid who has followed the eldest lady for six years, but she doesn't know anything, do you think this can be believed?" Honglan, since the eldest lady gave you to me, then you are my girl and should be on my side. Knowing everything is endless. Otherwise, I can send you back to the eldest lady. I don't want to make it difficult for others, I reluctantly stay, and each other is not happy, so why bother? ”

Now in the Xue Mansion, Chu Lingfeng is almost alone, except for Xiao Tian, he has no henchmen. And this Honglan in front of her is undoubtedly Xia Meixue's henchman, she can't accept it. Either submit to yourself, or leave.

Chu Lingfeng didn't know what Xia Meixue had to hide, but no matter what she had, if it was kind, she should release her kindness. Otherwise, it should be put within the scope of precautions.

Although she was reluctant to be an enemy of her father-in-law and mother-in-law, she did not blindly obey and get reason.

"I'm already the maid of the eldest and youngest grandmothers, and I can't go anywhere except by the eldest and youngest grandmothers." Honglan listened to Chu Lingfeng's words, but she was still very tough: "As for what the young grandmother asked, I really don't know." ”

"Well, I'm sure you really don't know." Chu Lingfeng relieved his mouth, but before Honglan could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard her continue: "If you don't know, just guess, you have followed the eldest lady for so long, you should know her well enough, guess, it won't be difficult for you." ”

Honglan suddenly had a bitter face, and her heart was a little worried. Why is this young grandmother so difficult, not only did she ask questions that she didn't expect, but she also bit it to death.

"I'm just a maid, how dare I guess the master's mind." Honglan lowered her head, although her voice was low, but she didn't mean to compromise: "Grandma, don't embarrass me anymore." In short, whatever the eldest lady does, it is for your own good. ”

It's a wonderful thing to say, with a hint of pleading, but also a hint of contempt.

Chu Lingfeng has just arrived, and he has no power at all, and he has no ability to compete with anyone. is even an ordinary little girl, if she is smart enough, she should not be offended. Not to mention that Honglan is Xia Meixue's person, and she is the person she most hopes for in the huge Xue family.

Honglan expected that no matter how disagreeable Chu Lingfeng was to her, she could only endure it and then please herself. She was also curious in her heart, and she also wanted to see what kind of ability this daughter-in-law Xia Meixue had picked.

But Honglan was wrong, although Chu Lingfeng had shown a gentle side since she entered the door of the Xue family, and she hadn't even said a word in a heavy tone, but obviously, she was not a really docile person.

Hearing Honglan's refusal without hesitation, Chu Lingfeng got up and said lightly: "Then you just stand here and think, when you think about it, when you tell me." ”

Honglan was stunned for a moment, looked up and said, "Grandma, what do you mean by this?" ”

Chu Lingfeng smiled, although there was no smile in his eyes.

"That's what you heard." Chu Lingfeng put down the teacup, she was half a head taller than Honglan, and looked at her a little condescendingly: "I'll give you two choices, if you want to be my maid, you know everything, and you can say everything." Otherwise, you can go back to the eldest lady, and I will not stop you. And at a time when you don't know how to choose, just stand here and think about it. ”

After Chu Lingfeng finished speaking, he didn't listen to her rebuttal anymore, and entered the house with Xiao Tian. At this time, although it is lukewarm and hot, and the wind in the yard blows with the fragrance of flowers, it is also fatal to stand for one hour and two hours.

Xiao Tian closed the door when she entered the house, looked at Honglan who was standing there, and stuck out her tongue: "Miss, you are so fierce." ”

Chu Lingfeng sighed: "Don't be fierce, who puts you in your eyes?" ”

It is said that the new official has three fires, and the new daughter-in-law is the same, Chu Lingfeng does not have so much energy now, and he can't command others, so he can only manage his own yard first. And everyone else, they can't move.

The maids in this courtyard, not to mention whether there are other people's forces mixed in, even if there is none, it is not easy to start. It is true that the subordinate is not valuable, but he can be a handle for being manipulated, and Chu Lingfeng does not want to bring unnecessary trouble to himself.

And Honglan is different, no matter what she does, unless Xue Mingyang comes back, no one will stand up for Xia Meixue's people.

"That's true, but I don't think it's good." Xiao Tian was a little uneasy: "Miss, what if she really doesn't say anything, just let her stand here, don't do anything." ”

"What can happen, can I still take her life?" Chu Lingfeng smiled: "Don't worry, I'm just forcing the eldest lady to come out and say something." Even if she's doing it for my good, she has to know why. Even if the eldest lady is really hard-hearted, and the husband will come back tomorrow, I will naturally be able to release people along the steps. ”

It's just a day and a night, and the temperature is suitable, neither hot nor cold, at most, people suffer some sin, and it won't be a big deal.

Xiao Tian knew that although her young lady did some things decisively, her heart was still soft after all. also knew that their current situation was definitely not as simple as worry-free food and clothing, and looked at Honglan, who was hanging her head outside the window and couldn't see her expression clearly, and finally sighed and didn't say anything.

If you can, who doesn't want to live in peace and harmony. But the truth is that there are some things that you have to do even if you don't want to. Intrigue and deceit, this is the case with the mansion of the wealthy, since you step in, you have no choice.

Honglan has been standing in the courtyard, and the maids who come and go look at her with a little strange eyes, but Chu Lingfeng didn't speak, and no one dared to say anything. What's more, they are not familiar with Honglan, and they can't talk about feelings, in this kind of place, no one will have such a sense of justice and sympathy, provoking the master for an irrelevant person and causing trouble for themselves.

At noon, there was naturally a table of good food and good dishes, although most of them were in the columns, but Yun Linfu also added two more dishes and vegetables, and the meaning of the show was clear at a glance.

As expected, in the evening, Yun Linfu personally delivered the food over, smiling, looking at this Chu Lingfeng like that, it seemed that they had known each other for a long time.

"Grandma." Yun Linfu stood at the table and said with a smile on his face: "I heard the maid who cleaned up that you used a lot of roasted venison at noon, and you have always liked this flavor of the dish, so I specially asked the kitchen to make two dishes for you to taste, to see if it is appetizing." ”

Chu Lingfeng knew about it: "The things sent by Mama Yun are naturally good. It's just that Mama Yun takes care of it so much, I don't want to go, let's not talk darkly, if Mama Yun has anything to need, just ask. If I can help, I won't refuse. ”
