Tang Mansion is located on Daxing Street in the southeast corner of Luzhou City, and does not belong to the bustling street. Most of the houses here are people's houses, and there are very few businesses that set up shop in the vicinity, so it should be more clean to live here. Ye Yuanhang followed the old housekeeper almost to the easternmost end of Daxing Street, only to find that there was a relatively large courtyard on the right. There is no imaginary grandeur, and there is no stone lion at the door. It's just that the courtyard wall made of blue bricks is relatively tall, four to five meters high. The main entrance of the Tang Mansion is vermilion, and the plaque on the door looks very ordinary. It's just those two big golden characters - Tang Mansion. It can also faintly highlight the wealth of the owner.

Entering the main entrance, there is a large courtyard, which can also be said to be a small square. On both sides of the courtyard are two rows of side rooms, and the old housekeeper pointed to the side rooms on both sides and said: "This is where the family and the nursing home live, there are thirty-two family members in the house, and ten nursing homes." There are also thirty-two maids in the backyard. These subordinates will need you to bother to manage in the future. ”

"I still need the old housekeeper to teach the students a lot." Ye Yuanhang felt the pressure coming. also admired the old man in front of him even more.

Walking through a corridor, another courtyard. This is the front hall, where people are gathered, matters are handled, and family laws are implemented, and it is also the main office location of Ye Yuanhang. To the back of the vestibule is the main living room. It is the place where the host receives his guests. The room on the right side of the living room is the butler's room. The row of rooms on the left is the maids' residences. Go further back and you'll be in the backyard. The old housekeeper told Ye Yuanhang that only the master's family could live in the backyard, and the master could go in during the day. At night, the backyard is never allowed to be entered without permission. Remember!

"Butler." A maid ran over panting and turned sideways to say goodbye. said: "The master is in the living room, call you to bring the new butler immediately." After that, he also secretly glanced at Ye Yuanhang.

Ye Yuanhang followed the old housekeeper into the living room. I saw Tang Yuanwai sitting on the main seat, a middle-aged woman on the right, and two beautiful women sitting downward. Behind each chair stood two maids. The old housekeeper bowed to Tang Yuanwai and the middle-aged woman and said, "Master, madam, Tang Fu greets you." He bowed to the other two women and said, "The two aunts are well, Tang Fu greets the two aunts." Tang Yuanwai helped him for a moment, and several aunts nodded to the old housekeeper. Then the old housekeeper introduced several masters to Ye Yuanhang one by one, and Ye Yuanhang also asked for peace.

Tang Yuanwai put down the teacup, wiped down his beard, and coughed lightly: "Originally, recruiting housekeepers was an extremely strict matter, I didn't know much about the little brother, and I only had a relationship with you at the prefect's place." But you made a big impression on me. I believe that my vision will not be wrong, and I hope you will not disappoint me. Let's do a one-month test first, and the salary is tentatively set at two taels of silver, and you will not be disadvantaged if you do a good job. What do you think? ”

"Thank you, sir." Voyage salutes and thanks. And introduced himself and said: "The villain's surname is Ye, and his name is Yuanhang." Alone, unconcerned. Thanks to the lord's love to stay by his side, the little one must be diligent to repay the lord's love. ”

"Okay, okay." Tang Yuanwai nodded with a smile, and ordered: "Old butler, after you go down, you will inform Yuanhang of the specific matters, and ask Tang Ling to follow Yuanhang to do things." Find a dexterous maid and send one, and if you don't have the picture tomorrow, you will buy one. I have prepared a room and a maid for the old butler in the backyard, and you will help you sail more in the near future, and enjoy the happiness after the battle. ”

"Yes, thank you, master, the old slave is leaving." The old butler bowed down to Tang Yuanwai and then turned to Yuanhang and said, "Let's go, go to your room, and we'll talk slowly." ”

Ye Yuanhang followed the old housekeeper before he came out of the living room, and two women came from the backyard and almost collided with the old housekeeper. Ye Yuanhang looked, what a young girl! The woman walking in front looked eighteen or nineteen years old, with black hair like silk, holding a Lingyun bun on her head, a red peony walking horizontally, and a few strands of green silk hanging down on her face. The standard melon seed face, with lightly curved eyebrows, a small mouth, and a slight redness. The figure is not to mention, wearing a light blue long skirt, bulging breasts, and a slender waist. A pretty look of a small jasper. Ye Yuanhang, who saw it, was dumbfounded, and his saliva was about to flow out.

"Flutter." The girl couldn't help laughing when she saw Ye Yuanhang's messy clothes, wearing shoes on one foot and only white socks on the other. Immediately, his face turned red, and he hurriedly covered his cherry mouth with a handkerchief.

"Bold, who are you to dare ...... Hey, it's you! The maid behind him stepped forward and said to the girl: "Miss, this person is the one you gave him money and asked him to enter the city, why is he in our house?" ”

"The old slave greets the eldest lady, this is the new Steward Ye hired by the master today." The old butler hurriedly pulled the corner of Laye's sailing. said in a low voice: "Don't hurry up and say hello to the eldest lady." ”

This is the eldest lady of the Tang family? Ye Yuanhang immediately believed that there was really love at first sight in the world, no wonder the innkeeper said yesterday that there were many people who came to be the butlers of the Tang Mansion for the eldest lady.

"Lady auspicious." Ye Yuanhang hadn't come to his senses yet, and incoherently said the lines of the court dramas he had seen before.

"Excuse me, Yingyue, let's go." The eldest lady politely walked to the living room.

"Miss, please stay." Ye Yuanhang caught up a few steps, took out a copper coin from his arms and handed it over. said: "Thank you for helping me the day before yesterday, the little one came to pay it back, and never forget the kindness of sending charcoal in the snow." ”

"No need, it's a trivial matter, Steward Ye doesn't have to take it to heart." The eldest lady took a step back and waved her hand.

"It may be a trivial matter for the eldest lady, but it is a great matter for Ye. At the beginning, if I didn't have this money, I wouldn't be able to enter the city, and if I couldn't enter the city, I would starve to death outside the city. It can be said that this penny has saved the lives of our Ye family for several generations. Yuanhang said openly.

The eldest lady widened her eyes, her small mouth was half open and half closed, and she couldn't believe it, looking at the copper coin in Ye Yuanhang's hand.

Ye Yuanhang grabbed the eldest lady's little hand and put the copper coin in her hand. Ye Yuanhang was an unintentional move, how could the eldest lady have been so close to a man, and her face turned red with shame on the spot. Turn around and walk away quickly. Yingyue was also puffing out, glared at Ye Yuanhang fiercely, and left behind the young lady.

"Steward Ye, how can you be rude to Miss? This is Miss Kindness, if others know about it, can you still stay in the Tang Mansion? Seeing that Yuanhang was so bold, the old butler stepped forward and said accusatory.

"It's me who is reckless, and the old housekeeper is disciplined, and never again." Ye Yuanhang bowed to the old housekeeper, and thought as he spoke, the beauty is by her side, what is it to touch your hand, I still want to hug it. Since meeting the eldest lady, Ye Yuanhang has become more determined to continue working in the Tang Mansion.

At the door of the butler's room, a boy who looked like a housekeeper was sitting on the threshold. Seeing them coming, he hurriedly got up and knelt down, and kowtowed three times to Ye Yuanhang.

"Villain Tang Ling, please say hello to the old housekeeper and the new housekeeper." That little guy is very good at getting things done.

Ye Yuanhang looked at the child's appearance of fourteen or fifteen at most, he looked very delicate, and he looked smart and clever at a glance. Ye Yuanhang hurriedly helped Tang Ling up. smiled and said, "You don't have to make this big gift, hurry up." ”

The old butler smiled and said, "You let him worship, the first time the next person sees the master, he has to kowtow." Later just bow and you're good to go. When you officially become a housekeeper, you also have to kowtow to the master. ”

At noon, Tang Ling brought a few appetizers, and Ye Yuanhang drank them with the old housekeeper Tang Fu in the house.

"Alcohol is not allowed at noon to prevent delays in the afternoon, but today we will make an exception and drink less." The old butler comforted himself and drank it. Putting down the glass, Tang Ling stepped forward to refill the wine. The old housekeeper pursed his lips and continued: "The people in the mansion sign life and death contracts, which means that the master can take their lives at any time, so the Tang family's family law is very strict. Don't break the house rules! ”

The old housekeeper raised his glass and touched it with Ye Yuanhang. Pointing at Tang Ling, he continued: "This child was picked up last year, and he was faint at the gate of the mansion when he was hungry, and I looked pitiful and led him into the mansion. With me for a year, I understand the basics, so I leave it to you as a follower, and you can tell him if you have something. ”

Ye Yuanhang watched the old housekeeper drink cup after cup, maybe he was finally retired, and he was in a good mood. may also be too deep in his feelings for the Tang Mansion and reluctant to let go.

"In the afternoon, I will gather all the servants and maids to let them know you, and then teach you what you should do. I'll give you a maid. Our house is a big mansion, and the housekeeper is equipped with a maid to accompany the room, haha......" The old housekeeper drank and lay on the table. Ye Yuanhang and Tang Ling hurriedly carried the old housekeeper to the bed.

Ye Yuanhang looked at his room. The place to eat just now in the middle is the living room, and on the left side is a small dormitory, with a small desk, which should be regarded as a study. And then there was the bedroom, and now the old butler was lying on the bed. To the right of the living room, there is also a small room with a bed in it.

"Do you live here? Tang Ling. Ye Yuanhang asked, pointing to the bed.

"No, butler. This is the maid who serves you, I live with the family, and I will come and follow you every morning, and then go back in the evening. Tang Ling replied as he stood behind Yuanhang in a regular manner.

"Oh, isn't it different for you to live here and serve me?"

Tang Ling was at a loss, "You must live outside the front hall, the family law stipulates that a male servant cannot live near the backyard, only the housekeeper can, which is convenient for the lord to call." ”

"Oh, I see." Yuanhang patted his head and said.

Suddenly remembered that the shopkeeper of the inn came again, the shopkeeper helped him a few days ago, and promised to invite him to drink.

"Tang Ling, you go and find me a set of clothes, find a pair of shoes, and then go out of the house with me." Yuanhang looked at his toes and said.

Tang Ling couldn't help but smile and said, "Yes, housekeeper, the little one will do it." ”

Ye Yuanhang walked out of the room, saw a wooden ladder in the small courtyard, found the direction of the backyard and leaned against the wall, and said secretly: I don't believe that I can't peep.
