He stood up, picked up the step shake that fell on the ground, wiped it with his hand, pinned Tong Yan back in his hair, and sighed, "I'll take a shower." ”

Without waiting for Tong Yan to say anything, he ran out of the door.

"Didn't you wash it in the morning, why did you wash it again?" Tong Yan is like a delicate peony waiting to be released, her eyes are like mist, and she is lazily leaning on the big pillow and muttering to herself.

Cheng Huai's whole body, pouring semi-cool water from his head down, his hair was wet and sticking to his face, and the crystal droplets on his fluttering eyelashes fell drop by drop.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that King Yong has also instructed the maids around Tong Yan, but this is fine.

He picked up the long scarf, wiped the cool water droplets all over his body, dragged a piece of clothing casually, draped it on, and tied the belt.

I'm going to the guard tomorrow.

In the past few days, he has heard that the border pass is not peaceful again, and the Tartars have repeatedly tried to test the border.

Speaking of which, after a few years of recuperation, the state of the Tartars has slowly eased up.

The north is cold, the climate has never been more suitable than the Central Plains, the land is fertile, and most of them live by grazing, and they eat some hunting meat, not to mention the shortage of materials and lack of food, so they have coveted the treasure land of the Central Plains since ancient times.

Maybe by next year, there will be wars at the border gates, and I am afraid that a few years of war I will be inevitable.

Cheng Huai's thoughts were a little heavy, and he pushed open the door and walked to the bedroom.

·

Tong Yan was listlessly using breakfast, and she couldn't even stand Qingzhi, so she had to remind her in a whisper that it would be cold if she didn't eat porridge soon.

She came back to her senses and drank most of the remaining bowl of porridge in a few bites.

When she woke up early this morning, the bedside was deserted, and there was still Cheng Huai's shadow.

After asking the maid, I found out that as soon as the sky was bright, the prince left in a hurry and went to the guard.

Tong Yan was sullen.

How busy is Guard? Busy enough to get up without getting out of bed?

I didn't know how to say hello to her, so I ran away without even a little nostalgia. It's annoying, huh!

It just so happens that it's time to recognize the people in the courtyard today and take care of the housework.

It stands to reason that the Wu family is the head of the house, and the middle feed of the entire Guogong Mansion should be in her hands. It's a pity that because the Wu family is young and is a continuation of the string, when they first married in, the middle feed in the entire house was held by the third wife.

Compared with the third wife, this feed should actually be handed over to the Shen family, but because of the death of her husband over the years, she has been overly sad, and she has long been unintentional, only hiding in the courtyard to eat fasting and chanting Buddha, and rarely shows up, so it is controlled by the third wife.

Wu married in less than two years, she became pregnant, compared to the power of the housewife, the child is the most important thing, of course Wu will not be stupid enough to take care of these troubles, in case of overwork, lose the child, is it too late to regret.

But when she gave birth to her son, the third wife didn't want to let go of power, after all, this main matter is not just a little sweetness, it is a whole piece of cake, if the family is divided in a few years, everyone will be two families, and the third wife will have no excuse to meddle in the affairs of the Wei State Mansion, let alone oil and water.

When Cheng Yi was two years old, the Wu family already had a lot of free time, and reminded the third wife several times openly and secretly that it was time to hand over the chores, but the third wife seemed to not understand, and smiled like a nobody.

The Wu family is not a strong person, seeing that the third wife doesn't want to give up power, forget it, turn a blind eye, anyway, the third wife can't toss for a few years, and when the son becomes a parent, he always has to split up.

Tong Yan doesn't care even more, just her marriage is outrageous, she hasn't seen any shop or grange, even if she doesn't rely on the industry of the Guogong Mansion, she and Cheng Huai won't be able to spend it in three lifetimes.

Besides, there is a Wu family on her head, so she doesn't need to pull this head.

Tong Yan eliminated her appetite and asked Qingzhi to call all the people in the courtyard.

Although they don't have to take care of the entire Guogong Mansion, their courtyard alone is enough to work.

In addition to the maid and mother-in-law she brought over, there were also four girls who followed Cheng Huai, Mengqing, Yuqing, Fengqing, and Wanqing, and there were a few rough mothers-in-law in the courtyard.

Even Aunt Fang Ruo, the female official of King Yong's Mansion, was appointed by King Yong, and she stayed in the Duke of Wei Mansion before Tong Yan's wedding, taking care of the dowry for her, and when she got married, King Yong simply gave her people, and Fang Ruo was also very willing.

To be honest, Tong Yan was still a little stunned, after all, Fang Ruo had been the teacher of the three sisters before, and she even taught her how to be a housemother, although she was not afraid, but she always felt that Fang Ruo was a little strange.

As for the two little servants Qingzhu and Qiao Zhu beside Cheng Huai, it is not under her control, and the rest of the guards are staying in the outer courtyard, so she doesn't know her.

Tong Yan has already thought about it, and she can't favor one over the other.

In the past few days, she has secretly observed that Mengqing and Yuqing are older among the four, quite stable, and they don't have any thoughts, so they arranged for the two of them and Qingzhi to manage the affairs in the room together.

Mengqing and Yuqing were overjoyed, and bowed heavily to Tong Yan and thanked them repeatedly.

They thought they would never have a bright future in their lives. I was not treated by the prince, thinking that if the master mother entered the door, they would be even more unpopular with the maids who served the male host, but I didn't expect the county lord to be so kind.

They don't ask for anything else, they just want to wait until they are old, and the county lord will be the master of Xu Hao's family, and they will have a good life in this life.

Feng and Wanqing didn't complain, but they were also very happy, the two of them were two or three years younger than the two sisters, and when Mengqing and Yuqing got married, the two of them would be promoted to serve in the house.

The original mother-in-law in the courtyard still performs her own duties, and the mother-in-law Qiu who is in charge is still in charge, but Tong Yan has inserted all the rough maids and mother-in-law she brought with her, and ordered Chun'er and Mrs. Qiu to be in charge together.

Mrs. Qiu responded respectfully, but she didn't think so, this person named Chun'er was just a teenage yellow-haired girl, her wife and son were in their forties, and she ate more salt than the little girl had walked, so she didn't have the final say.

What's more, even this county lord is just a girl who hasn't grown all her hair, I heard that she picked it up from outside, I'm afraid it's not an orthodox royal lady, it's just a country girl, and it's not as good as her wife!

No wonder the prince of the world put so many noble girls not to marry, he has to marry this county lord, the relationship is born with a foxy appearance, confusing men!

Tong Yan saw Mrs. Qiu bowing her head, and nodded with satisfaction, so she recognized the other mothers-in-law and made a general note.

As for Fang Ruo, it couldn't be better to be her military advisor, and the monthly treatment is according to the standard of the nurse, which is higher than everyone else.

In this way, Fang Ruo is even if she is receiving two monthly examples, she is a female official of Yongwang's Mansion on the register, and she is assigned by the palace, so she can't be eliminated casually, and she also has to lead the Yongwang's Mansion Yulu.

Where the people in the courtyard dare to make a mistake, they all respectfully call Fang Ruo an aunt,
