Chapter 43: The Lady's Kind Visit (2)

Passing through this floral pollen array, there is a secluded courtyard, a circular arch separating the courtyard from the garden. Walking into the archway, the first thing that catches your eye is two huts together, blue bricks and red tiles, there is only one bed, one table and four chairs in the house, although the equipment is extremely simple, but compared to the thatched hut living outside, it is much stronger.

Lin Wanrong nodded with satisfaction, it looks good to have such a comfortable nest. He looked around, looking for Fauber, but he didn't see his figure.

This old man, he is lazy at work? Lin Wanrong thought helplessly, glanced around, and shouted: "Fu Bo, Fu Bo, where are you-"

A voice came from among the flowers, "I'm here, Lin San." ”

Following the voice, Fu Bo was squatting in the flowers to cultivate a peony, and the branches covered his figure, no wonder Lin Wanrong couldn't find him.

Lin Wanrong smiled, walked over and said, "Fu Bo, I came to report to you." ”

Fauber nodded and said, "I see you." How's that, what do you think of my garden? ”

Lin Wanrong took a deep sniff of the fragrance of flowers in the courtyard, and said happily: "The fragrance of flowers strikes people, I hope to sleep under the flowers." ”

Fu Bohaha smiled and said: "Wait, with the fragrance of flowers you smell, the cultivation of flowers and plants of the Xiao family will depend on you in the future." ”

"Wait, wait," Lin Wanrong was startled, he was just here to mess around, he really wanted him to repair flowers and grass, he was not this material: "Fu Bo, your old man is in his prime, the burden of this cultivation garden, of course, you have to pick it, I, I don't understand anything, if I accidentally do something wrong and smash your old brand, then I can't afford it, so I'll still follow you and give you a hand." ”

Fauber glanced at him and said, "You kid is still a little self-aware. You will follow me in the future, study hard, and with this craft, you will ensure that you will not worry about food and clothing in the Xiao family for the rest of your life. ”

Although Lin Wanrong is unwilling to stay in this Xiao family for the rest of his life, he is a clever person, and he knows that he has to mix here for a year.

Seeing Fu Bo stand up, Lin Wanrong hurriedly brought him a stool and asked him to sit in the old man's house, and then went into the house to fetch water to wash Fu Bo's hands, and then made a pot of hot tea and sent it to Fu Bo. In the end, I still couldn't get enough of finding a folding fan, and fanned it gently next to Fubo, doing my best to be diligent, and the strength when I entered the door just now was completely two people.

"This, Lin San, it's late autumn now, you this, this fan, isn't it too cold." Fauber kindly reminded him.

"It's okay, it's okay, Fu Bo should be strong and strong, and the yang fire is vigorous, these few small strokes can be nothing." Lin Wanrong said with unashamed compliments.

Fauber didn't say much at the moment, and enjoyed his service in peace.

After chatting with Fu Bo for a few words, Lin Wanrong learned about the situation in the gardener department where he was. Although there are many people in this house, there are only two gardeners, him and Fubo. It turned out that Fu Bo had been raising flowers and plants for more than 30 years, and he was used to it alone, and he rejected Mrs. Madame's proposal to increase manpower for him several times.

Kuye, it turned out to be a light commander, Lin Wanrong was a little frustrated, this Fu Bo died to save face and suffer crimes, needless to say, in the future, Lin Wanrong will do all the work of the flowers and plants in the courtyard, how can he not be annoyed.

Fu Bo naturally didn't know what Lin Wanrong was thinking, he and Lin Wanrong had a similar temperament, so he set up a dragon gate array in front of him, vigorously proclaiming how brave he was back then, taking care of these flowers and plants alone, and the appreciation of the old lady and the scholar of the Ministry of Rites was deeply appreciated, and he was rewarded with silver.

Lin Wanrong had no interest in his glorious history, leaning against the flowers, drowsy, pressing a few peony flowers under him, but he didn't know it.

Finally waited for Fu Bo to shut down, it was already noon, and from Fu Bo's conversation just now, Lin Wanrong learned that Fu Bo did not live here. With their old qualifications, Mrs. Xiao specially arranged a place for them to live in peace.

Therefore, in this small courtyard, in the future, it will be Lin Wanrong's territory alone. Listening to it, only this news made Lin Wanrong a little encouraged.

At lunchtime, Lin Wanrong carried a rice bowl and went to the dining place at home.

Fu Bo has already given Lin Wanrong a general explanation of some rules for being a housekeeper, especially the housekeepers of large families, which are very particular. When the master eats, the family can eat, and when the master sleeps, the family dares to sleep. And this family dining place, to put it bluntly, is a simple canteen, which is a place dedicated to providing meals for idle family members. Today's dining room was a little late, and Lin Wanrong was already grumbling with hunger.

Lin Wanrong entered the dining room and glanced at it, the place was extremely simple, with several rows of wooden tables and chairs, a few large cauldrons cooking food, and there were two big signs standing next to it - the middle-level family dining area, and the low-class family dining area. The high-ranking family members will not dine here, their identities are different, so they naturally disdain to eat with these juniors.

In the middle-level family area, there were more than a dozen people sitting, many of them looking at these newcomers with mocking eyes, and in these newcomers, they could find some long-lost pleasure.

The low-class family area was packed, with about thirty or forty people. Thinking that there were thousands of people vying to line up for interviews, but only so many dozens of people were hired, Lin Wanrong was a little unworthy for those who were unsuccessful. Hype, this is completely the hype of the Xiao family, needless to say, this must be from the shrewd and capable Miss Xiao.

Lin Wanrong is still a little interested in this Miss Xiao, how can I say that she is also a strong woman, she should soak a girl like this, and she will be thrown off again after soaking, and she has a sense of accomplishment. Besides, using other people's portraits to make a small fortune, I don't thank you, and I'm not too embarrassed, Lin Wanrong laughed a few times, unspeakably proud.

Lin Wanrong filled the rice bowl with food, lay on the table and was about to start, when he suddenly heard a noisy voice in front of him: "Madame is here, Madame is here, Madame is here, Madame has come to visit our Xinding." ”

A mature and beautiful figure walked in from the outside, with a kind demeanor and a luxurious temperament, it was Mrs. Xiao.

Lin Wanrong just glanced at her from a distance that day, and when she looked at it today, this Mrs. Xiao was really beautiful, with curved eyebrows, long eyelashes, tender and smooth skin, and excellent maintenance, not at all like a forty-year-old person, but like a thirty-year-old young woman, with a bumpy and delicate figure, and a little taste.

Mrs. Xiao was followed by Steward Wang and Deputy Butler Pang, and judging from their respectful attitude towards Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao had a high prestige in the Xiao family. Thinking about back then, it was not easy for Mrs. Xiao to be a widow, with two young daughters, and to run Xiao Jianuo's big industry, and Lin Wanrong admired her a little in her heart. Capable people are always admirable.
