Chapter Eighty-Five: Family Affairs of Hearts

Before the heart pushed the door in, she also told a few jokes to the little girl at the door, obviously reminding Xie Xiaoyu that she was coming in.

But naturally, no one will find out.

The Huaiyang Hou Mansion is a serious Hou Mansion regulation, which is very large, but there are only three serious main families; And those who are at home all the year round are two female dependents.

There are few people like this, of course, they don't live in many rooms, so most of the rooms in the house are locked all year round, and all the people are almost concentrated in the main room and Xie Xiaoyu.

Although the main family is small, but the others are not small, there are more than 30 maids and servants in the second gate, and there are more than 60 people in the outer courtyard.

In this way, nearly 100 people only serve the two main families most of the time.

The days when the prince was a slave and a maid in the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion were generally better and idle; And the Zhao family and Xie Xiaoyu are both generous people, so the servants of the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion can be regarded as generous.

With money and not a lot of things to do, it will be difficult for anyone to have a dislike, and the years will be quiet, and everyone will have fun together.

The hearts joked for a moment, listened to nothing in the house, and knew that Xie Xiaoyu was wrong, so he pushed the door into the room, and said:

"Miss, the fan cover has been fetched, let's go to the front."

Fang Cai could still tell jokes in front of everyone, but when he entered the door at this moment, his tone was trembling, and his expression was timid, for fear of seeing his own young lady's bad appearance.

Only Xie Xiaoyu stood quietly in the room, there were no scars on his face, his head and clothes were neat and tidy, except for the dust and folds on the hem of his skirt.

Seeing this, the red heart had already guessed that the young lady was squatting on the ground, and with a little relief, she walked over and took the fan from her hand, put on the fan cover of the half-old moon white embroidered auspicious cloud pattern, and handed it back to Xie Xiaoyu, because there was no one in the house, Fang said softly:

"Is Miss safe?"

Xie Xiaoyu nodded, her expression was usually not up and down, and she looked at the red hearts with a pair of big apricot-like eyes, with a little doubt.

If Bi Tao was here at this time, he would have already said a car to himself, but unfortunately the red heart is not Bi Tao, even if he understands that Miss must have something, he can't understand what she wants to ask, so he can only speak:

"Does the young lady want to ask the slave about something?"

Oh yes, she doesn't understand.

Bi Tao is not there, it is indeed slightly troublesome.

Xie Xiaoyu sighed - she really didn't want to talk anymore, as Yu Yan said, she had said too much this morning, and she had just caught a demon beast.

"Your brother." Xie Xiaoyu, who was silent for a moment, still said three more words aggrievedly, and felt that he was very tired and should sleep and rest.

Hearts didn't want her to say this, so she lowered her head and squatted down to arrange the hem of her skirt, and said while dusting the soil:

"My brother and the caravan have gone north, counting that they will be able to come back in the next few days, does the eldest lady have something to tell him to do? The slave told the family that when he returned, let him come to the house. ”

Noticeably depressed mood.

Xie Xiaoyu looked at the red heart in confusion, raised his hand and patted her shoulder, obviously asking her what happened.

Red Hearts stood up, and when she saw Xie Xiaoyu like this, she smiled reluctantly: "Don't worry, girl, it's really fine, Madame is afraid that she is in a hurry, Miss go over quickly." ”

Xie Xiaoyu suddenly became left-handed, pulling her sleeves, and there was a posture that she wouldn't leave if she didn't say anything.

Anything else, if it's the heart of the heart......

Red hearts knew that sooner or later they wouldn't be able to hide it from Xie Xiaoyu, "My mother arranged a family affair for me, and she wanted to ransom me out." She said, with a look of shame on her face, "This is a trivial matter, it is not worth listening to the young lady, the slave maid has a way." ”

Family affairs? Oh, by the way, she remembered that there had been such an incident in her previous life.

In that life, Bi Tao died in southern Xinjiang, and after she went home with difficulty, she heard that the Red Peach family wanted to redeem her - Red Peach naturally refused to go out, and insisted on guarding Xie Xiaoyu for the rest of her life, otherwise Mrs. really allowed her to go, and she would wipe her neck when she returned home.

But in my previous life, I just came home at this time, and I experienced too much, so my health was very bad, and I didn't care about it very much, and I really didn't take this thing seriously, I only kept the red heart by my side every day, and she was not allowed to leave for half a step.

She has only one attitude: disagree.

I don't agree with hearts going home, and I won't agree to the family affair that her family found for her.

……

Red Peach is not the son of the Xie family, her family name is Meng, and her maiden name is Meng Zhao'er, and she is the daughter of a farmer on the outskirts of Beijing.

Meng Zhao'er has four elder brothers above, and a younger brother below, it stands to reason that such a family has only one daughter, which should be loved and precious, and Meng Zhao'er's parents are extremely patriarchal, and even when Meng Zhao'er just landed, his father wanted to drown when he saw that he was a child.

Fortunately, the court of the Kang Dynasty strictly forbade the drowning of baby girls, and just three months before Meng Zhao'er was born, when a family in Donghai County secretly drowned the baby girl, they were bumped into by the prince who patrolled on behalf of the sky.

At that time, the young prince was furious, and when he returned to Emperor Chengping, Emperor Chengping was also angry, not only exiled the parents, but also asked the local officials to train the people ineffectively.

The Son of Heaven was angry and bloody, and it was this anger that was transmitted from top to bottom, and the ministers trembled, for fear that something would happen within their jurisdiction, so they strictly ordered their subordinates to strictly investigate.

At that time, the mother who delivered the baby was the relatives of the local Lizheng, and when she saw that the matter was not good, she was afraid of being implicated, so she hurriedly went to tell Lizheng, and after Lizheng came, she saved Meng Zhao'er, who had been in the water tank today, and ordered the Meng family to take care of it.

But the days of being rescued may not be easy. Meng Zhao'er was beaten and scolded at home, and often couldn't eat enough, if it weren't for her third brother Meng Liangcai to take care of her, I was afraid that she would still be unable to escape death.

Later, Meng's father had a serious illness and had no money for treatment, so Meng's mother wanted to sell her daughter.

At that time, Meng Zhao'er was only four years old, although she was not as good as bean sprouts, but her four-year-old daughter was sold in that kind of hook bar, which was extremely valuable.

Meng Zhao'er was ignorant, and she didn't know where the mother-in-law, who was extremely well-dressed and had several catties of powder on her face, was going to take her.

It was still her third brother Meng Liangcai who stole his mother's silver hairpin after knowing about it, chased him all the way to the capital, and begged the tooth woman to send her sister to a good place.

Ya Po didn't expect that the ruthless parents who wanted to buy their daughter to such a place, but didn't even give the last bite of food at home, but there was such a son, and she was moved by compassion at a thought, so she accepted the silver hairpin and agreed.

At that time, the old lady of the British Mansion was looking for a girl of similar age for her eldest granddaughter who lost her mother at birth, and Meng Zhaoer entered the British Mansion, and after two years of upbringing, she was sent to the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion with three other girls.
