Tonghui listened to the nurse crying, but she calmed down, she stood up and wiped her tears, opened the door with red eyes, and said in a dumb voice: "I want to freshen up." ”

The two maids were relieved, and they responded together, and ordered the people below to fetch water to serve.

"Don't be sad, nurse, I shouldn't cry." Tonghui smiled and comforted.

The nurse Zhang saw her county lord like this, and her heart was even more uncomfortable, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "Don't say such things as the county lord, the old slave just can't see the county lord being wronged, and he feels uncomfortable." ”

The Zhang family has always regarded Tonghui as their daughter, and Tonghui also regards the Zhang family as their closest person.

Since she was a child, her mother has been crazy, and it has always been Zhang's side to take care of her growing up, although the two are master and servants, they are as close as mother and daughter.

The maidservants with the basin of handkerchiefs came together, and the two entered the house together, and Zhang personally took the handkerchief and dipped it in water to wipe Tonghui's face.

"Look at the little face of the county lord, it's like a shelled egg, it's so tender." Zhang praised her while wiping.

Tonghui was praised and laughed, "The nurse knows to praise me." ”

"The old slave doesn't say those false, we don't lie, we tell the truth." Zhang's swore that he was about to pat his chest.

Tonghui pursed her lips and smiled, and the haze in her eyes gradually dissipated.

"Now that the county lord is already a big girl, she can't worry about these things, thinking that it is right to marry a good family." Zhang put the handkerchief back in the basin and waved his hand to tell the maids to step back.

Tonghui's face was slightly red, and she was a little ashamed, "What did the nurse say?" ”

Zhang saw that except for the two personal maids in the house, they had all retreated, so he took Tonghui's hand bitterly and said: "The county lord has to take this matter to heart, seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival is about to pass, the palace is inevitably lively, and it is also a good time for the nobles to see each other. ”

Tonghui frowned, and said sharply: "The nurse Hugh wants to talk nonsense, the marriage is naturally decided by the father and mother, how can there be a girl who has not been out of the cabinet to see each other by herself." She paused and whispered: "Even if I take a fancy to it, what can I do, in the end, it is not my father and mother who have the final say." ”

"My little aunt and grandmother, you expect the princess and princess to think about you, it's not the sun that comes out in the west, and the prince hates it...... cough, if you want the old slave to say, it's better to beg the Wang family to help, after all, Mrs. is still the blood of the Wang family, and you are also the granddaughter of the Wang family. ”

Zhang really wanted to bite off his tongue, and almost said that the prince hated his wife to death, but the prince issued an order to strictly prohibit mentioning it again, if anyone mentioned it again, he would pull out his tongue and sell it. Besides, it's better if the county lord doesn't know, if he knows that he is against the prince's father and daughter, it will be troublesome.

Tonghui didn't notice the strangeness of the nurse, she thought for a while, and hesitated: "Wang family, will you care about me?" For as long as I can remember, I have never had any contact with the Wang family. ”

The Zhang family knew that the county lord still couldn't let go, after all, for so many years, the county lord almost didn't walk around with these noble girls, and rarely showed up, and the Wang family never asked the county lord, just like they had never had this granddaughter.

But how important is face and future!

Zhang said ruthlessly: "The county lord wants to please the county lord of Zhaoyang, it is better to please the Wang family, no matter how favored by the prince is, the county lord of Zhaoyang is just a little girl who has not grown up, how can he take care of your affairs!" ”

Tonghui was poked in the heart by Zhang's family, Hongxia suddenly smudged the root of her ears, and said angrily: "The nurse is talking nonsense, I just saw Zhaoyang pitiful, so I got close to her, why did I get involved in my marriage again!" ”

"Okay, okay, it's the old slave who said it wrong." Seeing her fried hair, Zhang's hurriedly softened, "It's just that this marriage, the county lord should take it to heart, and the matter of moving around with the Wang family, you have to think about it, this is a lifelong event, you can't be sloppy, if you are old, the princess and princess will find someone with a similar family to marry you, then there is no room for regret!" ”

Tonghui also felt that what the nurse said was reasonable, but she still couldn't put it down, and said impatiently: "I know, I know, I'm hungry, the nurse should go and urge the kitchen to pass the meal!" ”

Zhang knew Tonghui the best, and when he saw that she was impatient, he knew that he was poking her heart, so he didn't say anything more, and hurriedly went to the kitchen to urge.

Tong Yan was sitting on a chair at the moment, watching one by one maids come up to greet her, so that she could recognize her face.

The yard was full of girls, and they all looked big.

"County Lord, the three maids and maids in front of you are all your personal maids, maids Qingzhi, Jiyue, Lingyin, and Yunxiang." Qingzhi pointed one by one and said.

Tong Yan whispered their names.

Several maids all smiled and saluted in unison.

Suzune is the maid who combed her hair, and she looks very honest.

Ji Yue was the girl who praised her for her good looks in the morning, and when she smiled, her eyes were bent into crescents, which looked very festive.

Yunxiang willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, looking very standard, made Tong Yan's eyes shine.

A few maids introduced themselves one by one.

Qingzhi is like the big housekeeper of Zhaoyang Garden, he has to worry about everything. And Lingyin only cares about combing Tong Yan's hair and dressing up on weekdays, and embroidery is also a must. Ji Yue is in charge of Tong Yan's monthly silver property, financial accounting, and the expenses of the entire courtyard. Yun Xiang is different from them, she has martial arts and knows the way of medicine, and she can be regarded as a doctor of guards.

Tong Yan was surprised, looking at Yun Xiang's beautiful and slender, she even knew martial arts, Ji Yue looked lively and festive, but she actually did such meticulous work in managing finances.

It's really four big girls who perform their own duties and have their own skills.

Behind these four personal maids stood eight younger maids.

They looked about the same age as Tong Yan, and the clothes they wore were inferior to Qingzhi and them.

"County Lord, these eight girls usually do some errands or cleaning the inner courtyard." Qingzhi said that, and gave the little girl who was the head a look.

The little maid was also very clever, and hurriedly walked in front of Tong Yan, and saluted: "Maid Chun'er, I have seen the county lord." ”

Then each of the little maids came up in turn to say goodbye.

"Servant Xia'er, I've seen the county lord."

"Servant Qiu'er, I've seen the county lord."

……

After reading it all over again, Tong Yan found that the names of these maids were connected to spring, summer, autumn and winter, poems and songs, and a child word was added after each word, which was more pleasant to call.

I think I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to remember her name, so she deliberately called it like this.

She secretly sighed, there are so many maids in her courtyard alone, there are many courtyards in this house, plus there is a large kitchen and back garden in the front yard, not only the maidservants, but also the guards, etc., I am afraid that there must be hundreds of people, it is really staggering.

There are still a few mothers-in-law, five big and three coarse, all wearing cloth clothes.

Qingzhi said: "These are all rough mothers-in-law, they are all doing some rough work, this is Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Zheng." She pointed to the mothers-in-law who walked in front of Tong Yan.

Several mothers-in-law smiled very attentively, the wrinkles on their faces were crowded together, and they saluted her respectfully.
