"Don't panic, I won't tell anyone what you've done." Lin Zhanmei comforted gently.

"Thank you...... Xie Shifei! Rurong said in shock.

"I heard that Gui's dowry is a total of one hundred and twenty-eight taels, and there are countless gold, silver and jewelry, which is comparable to the royal family's dowry. As far as you can see, but really? Lin Zhanmei's face seemed to be real and illusory under the light in the courtyard of the Hou Mansion.

The voice was obviously gentle and gentle, but it made Rurong feel cold from the soles of his feet.

Rurong swallowed his saliva and nodded slightly.

"Huh" Lin Zhanmei sneered almost inaudibly, everyone in the world loves money. Especially the Gui Mingyue, the copper smell of his body, only he sincerely admires Ji Yunyi.

"However, it is not a trivial matter for you, as a maid of the Hou Mansion, to steal the master's property."

Rurong fell down and begged: "Ask the princess to spare her life, the slave and maid will never dare again." ”

Lin Zhanmei curled the corners of his lips slightly with satisfaction, and said, "You can go back." ”

"The princess does not cure the sin of slaves and maids?"

Glancing at the burden in her arms, Lin Zhanmei said, "I can spare you from dying, but ......"

"I don't know what the princess wants to do with slaves?" If you are worried.

"Remember, I spared your life today." Lin Zhanmei knew that he couldn't stay here for a long time, so he left after speaking.

Although Rurong heard what she said, she probably thought that her handle was in her hands, and she might want her to do something to harm the young grandmother in the future.

Thinking like this, Rurong was not afraid in his heart, hugged the burden in his hand, and slowly returned to the room.

Since Lin Zhanmei came to the Hou Mansion, the aunts in the Hou Mansion have been divided into two camps.

One is headed by the third aunt, who is accustomed to becoming inflammatory, and tightly stammered Lin Zhanmei, who is the princess.

The other group of young and childless people still like to go to the West Courtyard to find Gui Mingyue.

Do you think that today's West Courtyard has become a cold palace? Then you are wrong, the West Courtyard is lively now.

Gui Mingyue, who can't go out to eat in the business field, is disappointed in love. But she has always adhered to the principle that it is better to die than to live, and she has enough money in her hand, how can she continue to slump?

"Grandma, what are we going to do today? But there will still be that...... Pedicure? The fifth aunt asked eagerly.

Not to mention, this pedicure is really magical, don't look at the grinning teeth that hurt at the time, and when you go back afterwards, your body can be comfortable and tight.

"I think that 'afternoon tea' is not bad, especially the osmanthus walnut cake made by Miss Qi'er, and then a small bird's nest milk custard, tsk...... "Aunt Jiu is about the same age as Gui Mingyue, and she is the best in Su Ri, and she can't help but want to salivate when she thinks of Gui Mingyue's delicate dim sum." And the young grandmother has always been arrogant and doesn't care, what golden blood silk bird's nest, what abalone ginseng winged belly, all seem ordinary.

Gui Mingyue, who was lazily reclining on the beauty couch, put down the new talk book sent by the sixth aunt, and asked, "What good ideas does the sixth aunt have?" ”

The sixth aunt is considered to be a "book friend" of Gui Mingyue, and when she heard this, she also put down the book in her hand.

"I heard that an unusual chess club has opened in the west of the city," the sixth aunt said mysteriously: "I heard that there are some noble ladies who often go in and out of the city......

Saying that, she blinked her eyes, and the other aunts immediately understood, and the fifth aunt "chicked": "You are stunned when you read the book every day, be careful of being immersed in the pig cage by the eldest lady." ”

"The chess club can't go, let's have a new trick today." Gui Mingyue smiled mysteriously.

"What's new?" The seventh aunt asked lazily, she was given to the Hou Ye by the emperor a few years ago, and she came from the palace and was well-informed.

"Shen'er, you go and guard the door," Gui Mingyue ordered.

Yinshen'er took the order to go outside the courtyard and ordered people to guard the door of the house, the gate of the courtyard, and the corridor.

In the house, I saw the tortoiseshell instructing the little maid below to bring five exquisite beauty couches, each of which was separated by a sandalwood short screen, and the tortoiseshell stepped forward to close the thick blackout curtain in front of the carved window lattice.

He took out five night pearls the size of his thumb belly and put them on the hibiscus high table in front of the beauty's couch. In addition to a small night pearl on the hibiscus high table, there are also fragrant bottles and jars.

At this time, five pretty maids came in.

"Please take off your coats," the tortoiseshell Qingyue voice sounded.

"Huh?"

Undress?

"These are five maids...... Aunt Six has always spoken boldly and without brains.

Gui Mingyue sneered and laughed: "Sixth aunt, what do you want?" This is called 'oil massage', which is similar to the previous 'foot massage', but this oil massage can not only relax the muscles and relax the mood, but also good for our skin. ”

"Really?" The fifth aunt immediately got up in spirit, she is now about to be thirty years old, plus the newcomers from the Hou Ye room after room carry into the door, there are very few times to go to her house, and there is no support from her mother's family in the back, life is not like that.

It's a pity that she is not thirty years old now, she has wrinkles early, and her complexion is not good, women always love beauty, as soon as she heard Gui Mingyue say that this "essential oil massage" has so many benefits, the fifth aunt immediately walked to a couch and took off her coat.

And the fluorescence of the night pearl on the high table is just enough to faintly illuminate her place, and there is a screen to separate it, except for the massage maid behind her, no one else can see it at all.

When several other aunts saw it, they followed suit.

The tortoiseshell ignites the pear wood fragrance in the room, and the room is fresh and peaceful. Coupled with Gui Mingyue, there are a total of five women, everyone is chatting and snorting, while enjoying the strength and heat from the back meridians, and they can smell the fragrance of the essential oil behind their snorts.

"Grandma, I don't know where this 'essential oil' came from? The smell is really rich. The fifth aunt asked.

"There is no such thing as this Central Plains, my caravan brought it back from the border city of the Western Regions, I saw that the smell and purity were good, and the tortoiseshell added some blood-nourishing herbs to it, and used it to smear the body after bathing in winter, which can keep the skin moisturized all day long." Gui Mingyue stretched her body and chatted with them.

"Oh, that's really a good thing, I don't know if there is anything left here from the young grandmother, the concubine is cheeky and wants to ask for one or two." The fifth aunt couldn't help but speak.

"Fifth sister, how can you be so ......" The sixth aunt has always looked down on the fifth aunt's cheekiness, and said: "This kind of thing is expensive at first glance, how can you ask for it at the beginning, really!" ”

When the fifth aunt heard this, she was a little stunned, and she also knew the nobility of this thing.

"It made the young grandmother laugh."

Gui Mingyue smiled and said: "These bottles on the front of the aunt's bed were originally prepared for you, if the aunts don't dislike it, you can take it back and use it, but this thing is not like the fat and gouache we use for facial dressing, and you need to understand some acupuncture points and techniques when you use it," Although Gui Mingyue couldn't see the looks of several of them, when she said this, everyone was quiet and looking forward to it.

Gui Mingyue continued: "My tortoiseshell is proficient in medical skills, and the skills of the maids behind us are also trained by her. In fact, this massage can be used not only on the back, but also on the face, if used properly, wrinkles will be later than those of others. ”

"That's a good dare," the fifth aunt laughed when she heard the expense, took the lead in clapping her palms, and said, "That's it, I'll choose a maid to come and learn when I go back." ”

Several aunts were also moved and echoed one after another.

After the "oil massage", several aunts were really radiant, and they were a little hungry unconsciously, Gui Mingyue ordered Jin Qi'er to serve a few afternoon snacks, and several aunts ate happily, and they were all in a hurry to go back to send the girl over.

The fifth aunt is even more selfish, although she has a good relationship with the eldest and younger grandmothers in the West Courtyard on the surface, she also has a good relationship with the princess of Nanyuan in private, and the third aunt who has a pungent temperament often gets together to say something right and wrong...... Therefore, she plans to send a few more maids to learn this skillful craft, so that it can be used as a bargaining chip for her to curry favor with the eldest lady and the princess in the future.

"It's up to the two of you next." After these aunts and wives left, Gui Mingyue smiled and said to Jin Qi'er and tortoiseshell.

"Miss, just rest assured." Jin Qi'er said with a smile, as long as she is given a chance, there is no little girl who can't be attacked.

According to her years of experience, in order to develop these maids into useful "eyeliner", in addition to holding their handles in the hands of the most practical but most laborious tricks, but also the maintenance of daily relationships, the maids are very few, after talking, it is very important to give a little sweetness from time to time, and share some inconsequential little gossip between masters.

And it is.

Gui Mingyue didn't want to be able to hear any important secrets from the mouths of these maids, she just didn't want to be like before, she was alone in the light, and her every move was watched by people in the dark, and she felt constrained.

Before Jin Qi'er and these maids became acquainted, an incident happened.

"Miss, those people outside said, said ......" Jin Qi'er heard it from the mouths of those broken mouths, and her whole body trembled with anger.

"Say what?" Gui Mingyue asked suspiciously.

"Say, Miss, you have a ...... with the Fourth Young Master An affair. Jin Qi'er said with difficulty.

Because Gui Mingyue is the business of the shop, he will often meet and discuss with Ji Yunlang. This was seen in the eyes of those who had a heart,

"What? Yun Lang is still a child. This disgusting bunch! Gui Mingyue couldn't help but scold.

"Miss, the fourth young master is actually not small, but you don't have anything in your heart, don't think. But after all, the relationship between you and his uncle and sister-in-law is inevitably closer in the eyes of outsiders. Grandma Jiang couldn't help but persuade.

"Then you can't pass on this mess," Yin Shen'er frowned and said, "I see that in this house, there are some pickled thoughts." ”

"And who sent it out?" Tortoiseshell asked.

"Someone with a heart," Jin Qi'er said angrily: "I see, it has nothing to do with the woman over there in Nanyuan." ”

The princess looked at the young lady's eyes, which were full of hatred and jealousy.

Jin Qi'er hated and thought about it, what else did she want, the eldest young master went to sleep in her room, and her own young lady still refused to see the eldest young master, not because of her.

Gui Mingyue frowned and was annoyed, and someone had to go to lie Yunlang there and inform him. Originally, Yun Lang made an appointment with Gui Mingyue to discuss opening a few more shops in the county in the south. In order to avoid the limelight, I had to not meet first.

"Grandma, Grandma Yuan asks to see." The girl from the yard came in to report.

Grandma Yuan followed, and there were a few strong mothers-in-law behind her, and after seeing Gui Mingyue, Grandma Yuan said with a smile: "Grandma, the eldest lady is invited." ”

"What," Gui Mingyue chuckled, "Grandma Yuan, is this taking someone to escort me to the eldest lady?" I don't know where Mingyue committed the taboo of the eldest lady again? ”

Grandma Yuan sneered and said, "The old slave doesn't dare to do such a thing as escorting the eldest and youngest grandmothers. As for whether or not she broke the rules, the young grandmother knew it in her own heart. ”
