Chapter 90: Buying Three Little Maids
Lin Su'e also let go a little, pulled some gossip in the village, and took them to the field to pull vegetables.
On the way, I met several acquaintances, who greeted them warmly, and praised the bride for being very handsome and blessed.
Tang Yanning was a little embarrassed to be praised, so he could only bow his head slightly and smile.
A day passed in a hurry, Tang Yanning felt very full and comfortable, there was no intrigue, power chasing, ordinary people, and she was very satisfied with the ordinary life.
In the evening, the sister-in-law and Shuang'er made eight dishes, including small greens, loofahs, edamame, etc., which were all home-grown fresh vegetables.
Huzi came back with his eldest brother, Gu Huaisheng followed, and Lin Su'e went to the door to greet him enthusiastically.
Tang Yanning originally wanted to sit down, but when she saw her sister-in-law who went out, she stood up again and followed her to the door, being a qualified wife to welcome her husband back.
"Ah, Huaisheng, did you pick these girls?"
As soon as Lin Su'e walked to the door, she saw her younger brother followed by three handsome little girls, all of whom were not very old, thirteen or fourteen years old.
Gu Huaisheng hummed lightly, "Yes, sister-in-law, there are many people in the family, and I can't let you suffer all the time, so I picked a few maids, and in the future, my sister-in-law can go around in her spare time, and she doesn't have to be bored at home every day." ”
Lin Su'e feigned anger, "What is affected or not affected, it is all a family, my brother and daughter-in-law have just married, and they haven't adapted yet." ”
Gu Huaien pulled Huzi and asked apologetically: "Huaisheng, where did you go to pick it, if you want to pick a maid and tell your brother, why bother to spend it yourself, how many silver taels were spent, I will let your sister-in-law give it to you." ”
Gu Huaisheng smiled faintly: "No, big brother, I still have this money." ”
Gu Huaisheng went from getting married to buying a banquet, all the expenses were borne by himself, and he didn't ask himself to get a point, now he picks a few maids, he is really embarrassed to let his younger brother break the bank.
Lin Su'e also felt a little embarrassed, blamed herself and said that she was not thoughtful, and hurriedly returned to the house to take the money to Huaisheng.
After all, there are two more people in this family, and they should add a maid to others.
In fact, it is definitely not a problem to buy a few maids in her own family, but she is reluctant, first, she thinks that there is not much housework, and she is busy anyway, and secondly, she thinks it is too expensive, and she spends dozens of taels of pain, so she didn't buy it for a long time.
Tang Yanning just came out, grabbed the sister-in-law who went back to the house to get the money, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you just said that they are all a family, and if you talk about money or not, you will get into trouble." Besides, I only brought one to marry the girl, I was thinking of picking a few maids, I can't let you work all the time, my husband must also feel sorry for you, so I went to pick someone so quickly, you don't have to be polite, let us out the money of these maids. ”
Her words were reasonable, her tone was soft and comfortable, and she was comfortable to listen to.
Lin Su'e hesitated and smiled, "Then this time it's up to you, don't be embarrassed if you want to add anything next time, this is what a brother and sister-in-law should do." ”
Tang Yanning responded with a smile, glanced at the graceful person at the door, and turned back to the house.
Three more maids were added, there were people in the house to serve them, and the meal was happily eaten.
For the first time, Lin Su'e sat there without moving, watching a few little maids pack up like a housewife, and she became more and more satisfied with this younger sibling. It's all the blessings of dragging the younger siblings, and there is a little maid to call.
After eating, Gu Huaisheng went to the study as usual, and Tang Yanning walked around and went to look at the little maids he had just bought.
The three maids are all watery, not like they were just picked up from the countryside, but like they have been trained in a big family for a long time.
Tang Yanning did not have the habit of giving people names, so that they were still called what they were called now.
The three maids reported their lives and years, the higher one was fourteen years old, a few months older than Shuang'er, called Finland, and the remaining two had just turned thirteen, one was named Yunzhi and the other was called Moyu.
Listen to this name, you know it's not a country girl's name.
She didn't dig deeper, and after greeting and admonishing her, she took Shuang'er back to the house.
Yunzhi and Moyu do rough laundry and sprinkling, Finland has learned cooking skills and is responsible for cooking, and Shuang'er still specializes in serving Tang Yanning closely.
In front of the vanity mirror, Shuang'er asked curiously while helping the young lady remove her hair and makeup: "Miss, where did you buy this uncle, I saw that these three seem to have been trained, their words and deeds are very decent, and they are also neat and tidy, and all three of them are literate." ”
In general, there are very few literate maids in the house, and only the big maids or accompanying maids can be literate.
And literate maids are generally more expensive.
Tang Yanning looked at Shuang'er's expression and said with a smile, "Yo, it's only a lot of work, you even know how to read?" ”
Just now Shuang'er instructed the three little maids to work, and after a while, she became familiar with others, her personality was simple and direct, and she asked people gossip for a long time.
Shuang'er replied: "I haven't probed you yet, I see that these three look so smart, and my uncle is so jade and in the wind, don't invite a maid at that time, it's an aunt, then it's annoying." ”
At this time, Tang Yanning was really a little surprised and looked at Shuang'er, yes, her mind can think so far, she didn't think about it.
She said knowingly: "Don't worry, those three look like they have been trained to understand proportion, and this kind of thing will not happen, besides, don't you sleep in the same room with those three little maids now, and I'm afraid that they can make some small moves under your nose." ”
Feeling the trust of the young lady, Shuang'er's confidence increased greatly, patted the flat chest and promised that he would definitely help the young lady take care of these three little maids.
There are not many houses in the Gu family, Shuang'er originally lived in one room, but suddenly added three maids, there was no spare room, so I had to live in one room with Shuang'er for the time being, and built a few more beds, fortunately, the Gu family's rooms were very spacious, and the four maids did not feel crowded.
After bathing, Tang Yanning let Shuang'er go back to rest, even if there were a few more maids in the house, she still thought there was no need to let Shuang'er keep vigil, first, she couldn't sleep well, and second, she felt sorry for Shuang'er, and she never treated her as an ordinary subordinate.
Gu Huaisheng stayed in the study until he returned at midnight, and when he pushed the door, he saw people half-leaning on the couch reading a book.
His satin hair was piled up loosely to his neck and shoulders, his eyelashes drooped, and his expression was so focused that he didn't even seem to notice when he entered the door.
He couldn't help coughing lightly, Tang Yanning reacted, got up and got out of bed, reached out to take the coat that Gu Huaisheng had just taken off, and asked with a smile on his face, "Are you back?" The ear room has been prepared with hot water, and the temperature should be just right when you go to wash it at this time."
I pretended to be asleep yesterday and didn't get up to greet him, and I must have gotten up when I'm awake today.
Besides, he bought a few maids today that were quite to her liking, so she had to thank her anyway.
Gu Huaisheng looked at the bright person smiling in front of him, and hummed lightly, went to the closet to take a change of clothes and went into the ear room.
