Chapter 225: The Appointment of Measuring Pearls
"Nope! Can! Yes! Lu Mengjian resolutely and affirmatively denied it.
"Hehe, girl, today the old man will tell you clearly, this matter, you have to agree, you have to agree, if you don't agree, you have to agree." After Huo Shuangcheng finished speaking, he looked around the room, "If you think this courtyard is shabby, when Kang'er comes back, I will change you to a larger courtyard." ”
Huo Shuangcheng's tone was not at all allowed Lu Mengjian to continue to refute. Lu Mengjian looked at Huo Shuangcheng speechlessly, it was him who left him, and he was also him, this general was used to saying everything on the battlefield, even if he returned home, he still retained the style of a soldier. Lu Mengjian knew that his arms couldn't twist his big 'legs', and he was thinking in his heart, so he no longer resisted, and for the matter of being taken as a concubine, it might be a good thing for Lu Mengjian's current situation.
"Thank you for the kindness of the general, can you give me two more days, after two days, I will definitely give the general a satisfactory answer." Lu Mengjian tested the current situation, with Huo Shuangcheng's 'sex', it was impossible for her to escape from Huo Mansion, and if she refused to agree to the appointment he made for Lin Daimo, I don't know what he would do when he was angry. In this way, it is better to deal with this matter first, and then carry out a delaying strategy, anyway, there is still nearly a month before Lin Daimo comes back.
Such a long time is enough for Lu Mengjian to change his current situation.
Regarding Lu Mengjian's compromise, Huo Shuangcheng was very satisfied. In this way, under his arrangement, Kang Er not only has the 'daughter' of Captain Qin, but also has Lu Mengjian by his side, which can be said to enjoy the blessings of all people.
"I see, this courtyard is really deserted, didn't I tell Manager Hu before, let him give you a few little maids to come over, this old guy, I think he is tired of staying in the house." Huo Shuangcheng has been very dissatisfied with Hu Libai since he came to see Lu Mengjian that day, what he once told, he was so unconcerned, where did this manager put his words!
"General, you misunderstood, I don't want too many subordinates, it's not about General Manager Hu's business, the main thing is that I'm afraid of quarrels, and I always feel troublesome when there are too many people, so thank you for the general's kindness." However, what Lu Mengjian is most worried about is the impact of hiding his 'privacy' after there are many people, and now everyone, including Aunt Xue and Qin Luofu, wants to 'insert' eyeliner around her, if she really dares to introduce these people into her side, she will simply lure the wolf into the room, leaving them to fight wits and courage with a group of people, it is better to leave no one behind.
"That's not good, there is no shortage of subordinates in our General's Mansion, when you become Kang'er's pillow person, this courtyard is empty, 'swing' and 'swing', isn't it slapping our Huo Mansion in the face, no, in the afternoon, I will send Manager Hu over to select a few dignified girls for you, you can't have no one to take care of you." Huo Shuangcheng said a word, these things were already a certainty, Lu Mengjian said that it was useless, and he kept silent.
Huo Shuangcheng arranged everything, and seemed to have seen the joy of Huo Jingkang's return, and finally left satisfied.
"God, why is this old guy so stubborn!" Lu Mengjian squatted down with her head in her arms, she really had no way to accept everything Huo Shuangcheng said, especially being a concubine for others, this is simply eating fruit and being a junior for others!
But the life that Lu Mengjian wants is obviously monogamous and growing old together, and the threesome in front of him is not in the blueprint of Lu Mengjian's future plan at all!
"Third Miss, are you alright?" As soon as the green ring entered the 'door', he saw Lu Mengjian squatting on the ground in pain, and stepped forward quickly in worry. After a few days of getting along, Luhuan found that Lu Mengjian was not the pampered and proud philistine 'girl' she imagined at all, but she was more like her sister, joking and playing together, and even took the initiative to teach her subordinates to learn to write and paint, and her behavior was no different from everyone's ladies, but there was a world of difference.
"I'm fine, I just feel panicked," Lu Mengjian held Lu Huan's hand, sat on the chair, and took a few deep breaths before breaking away from the "good news" announced by Huo Shuangcheng.
"Master, is he reluctant to be a girl again......" Luhuan looked around quietly and cautiously, this was the first time she had ventured to speak ill of Huo Shuangcheng in Huo's mansion, this inexplicable feeling made Luhuan feel strange, it seemed that compared to Huo Shuangcheng, she believed in Lu Mengjian more.
Lu Mengjian nodded and shook his head, "Alas, how can it be as good as it could be...... General, he is probably also out of love for Young Master Kang. ”
Green Ring seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and stood aside quietly to accompany Lu Mengjian.
"Probably, Manager Hu will bring a few people over in the afternoon, Sister Luhuan, please help me take a look, I am not familiar with this house, and I am from a poor background, except for the 'spring' peach and tea smoke, I have not been in contact with other people before, in terms of knowing people, my sister knows more than me, so I ask my sister to bother more." Lu Mengjian whispered to show weakness, and saw that Luhuan looked at her with some surprise, she knew that she was still on the right step at this step.
"Third Miss, please rest assured, I will definitely select the most desirable maid for Miss." Green Ring's words gave Lu Mengjian another shot in the arm.
"But as long as it is the person sent by General Manager Hu, we will stay first, since the general wants to send me a favor, then don't make him look ugly, see the hearts of the people over time, and with your fiery eyes, those people can't be arrogant." Lu Mengjian smiled slightly, since she was troubled to find the 'door', she didn't need to blindly pursue peace like before, but it gave people a feeling that she was too easy to bully, from today on, she had no need or reason to stay out of the matter anymore.
Green Ring nodded heavily, "Third Miss, why don't you bring me over with the master, the slave and maid prefer to serve 'serve' Third Miss......" The more Green Ring said, the quieter her voice became, she shouldn't be considered a seller, but Huo Shuangcheng left her behind, originally to find out the news of Lu Mengjian, but now her heart is more and more thinking about Lu Mengjian.
"Then how can it be done, the general still relies on your sister to take care of you on weekdays," Lu Mengjian smiled, her trust in the green ring that she had finally mentioned gradually collapsed, and the green ring seemed to be a little too snobbish......
In the afternoon, Manager Hu really 'finely' selected a few maids and sent them over, all of them seemed to be loyal and capable, but there were very few who could enter Lu Mengjian's eyes.
Green Ring picked out two people from a few little maids, and they were responsible for the affairs of the inner room. and sent the two to Lu Mengjian for a look.
Lu Mengjian is very satisfied, Green Ring's vision is really good, and these two people have an excellent impression on Lu Mengjian.
The slightly darkened skin of the 'female' is called Lotus 'Flower', her facial features are very upright, and her face is very loyal, but a pair of black eyes has a special 'essence' spirit, and the other 'female' son Bai Ning, compared to the lotus 'flower', has a much more 'fine' face, which is quite pleasing to the eye, but the light flowing in those eyes is 'shrewd' and clear, which makes Lu Mengjian a little jealous. However, since it was the person selected by the green ring, Lu Mengjian still accepted it gladly.
Lu Mengjian called the two to the front, looked at the two carefully, and finally pointed to the lotus 'flower' with satisfaction and said: "Your name, why don't you change your name to Qinglian, there is a poem cloud, out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons, talking about the lotus 'flower', I hope you are also like this lotus 'flower', have a dusty temperament." ”
Qinglian knelt down and thanked and received her name. Bai Ning was inevitably a little jealous of Qinglian's blue eyes as soon as she entered the 'door', she turned her head to look at Lu Mengjian, and a glimmer of light flashed in her 'shrewd' eyes.
"Bai Ning, your name is very good, just like it, you and Qinglian will be in charge of my inner room in the future, but remember, these 'flowers' in the room must not be 'played' without authorization, a few of them are highly poisonous, if they are accidentally pierced, they may be 'life' difficult to protect." Lu Mengjian deliberately frightened the two 'girls' in front of him, while watching the expressions of the two carefully.
Qinglian was stunned for a moment, but Bai Ning knelt on the spot without any reaction, as if the poisonous 'flowers' and grasses were not worth mentioning at all.
Lu Mengjian looked at the expressions of the two playfully, and then saw a few maids and servants who had just come to the small courtyard, and before they came, they were severely warned by Hu Libai, so they were all respectful to Lu Mengjian.
Among the few small guys, the man known as Xian Ge had the most calm expression and the best appearance, while the rest of the people were all so frightened that they lowered their heads and didn't dare to look up.
After rewarding each person with a small piece of broken silver, Lu Mengjian's heart seemed to be dripping blood, this was the hard-earned money she earned by designing clothes, and now it was in the hands of others in an instant, and she inevitably had a 'flesh' pain.
"Okay, you guys go out first, Green Ring, you take them to the room where they live, clean the room out today, if there is anything missing, just mention it, go." You call the 'spring' peach in, and I have something to say to her. After Lu Mengjian finished speaking, he nodded and gestured to the green ring.
Luhuan always thought that she had become Lu Mengjian's henchman at this time, so when she saw the 'Chun' peach, the corners of her mouth were immediately full of ridicule, but her mouth greeted her with enthusiasm: "'Chun' Sister Peach, the third lady invites you over." ”
The 'spring' peach rolled her eyes very uncollected, and walked in directly, and within a quarter of an hour, when she came out again, her eyes were shining with tears.
Green Huan took Qinglian Bai Ning to clean up the next person's room, while Xian Ge was familiar with the road and quickly cleaned the room with a few small guys.
"Yo, Sister Chun' Peach, what's wrong with you?" Green Ring pointed to Qinglian and the others to move the 'Spring' Peach 'messy' things aside, and the slimy 'bed' edge was also washed away by others.
But the 'spring' peach didn't pay attention to it at all, and sat directly on the side of the 'bed', sighed softly, and after a while, he fell asleep on the 'bed'.
"This sister slept so soundly," Bai Ning smiled and looked at the 'Chun' Tao who was still salivaing and smiled, while Qinglian and the others sat on the cleaned up 'bed' and rested quietly.
Suddenly, 'Spring' Tao suddenly sat up from the 'bed', and the whole person seemed to be sleepwalking, ignoring everyone's surprised gaze, and walked straight out.
