Chapter 5: Dismounting

"I asked," Siwei took a sip of water and smiled slightly, "The slave asked a little maid outside the Smoke Pavilion, and she told me everything when she gave me some broken silver." The steward in this house is surnamed Li, and he has been a steward for four or five years, and he has handed over any trivial matters to this Li steward, and he never asks. She also heard the little maid say that the concubines in this mansion were actually men, and there were no women at all, and she couldn't help but feel a little disdain for the prince who had not yet been seen.

However, no matter how subtle her expression was, it was in Chu Lianruo's eyes, she knew that this Siwei still had something to say, but as long as she said what she wanted to know, she thought for a while, "This Li is in charge, does he have a wife and daughter?" ”

When Siwei used to be an errand by his wife's side, she liked to inquire about these things when she had nothing to do, and she naturally didn't pull this down, "Steward Li and her wife and daughter's family are all on errands in the house, and the slave maid listened to the little maid say that this Steward Li's wife Feng is fierce, she is simply a tigress, and Steward Li is afraid of her." However, recently, Steward Li wants to take a concubine, and it is quite a big trouble......"

Chu Lianruo hooked her lips and pulled out the pearl hairpin on her head, Cen Zhou is worthy of being a water town, and the pearl is also moist and brighter, this branch is worth a lot of money, she said to Siwei, "You go and ask Steward Li to talk, if Steward Li doesn't come, use this hairpin to invite Feng to come." ”

Siwei took the hairpin, couldn't help but look at it a few more times and carefully put it into her sleeve, owing her body, "The slave went." ”

Chu Lianruo watched Siwei walk out, and Siyu on the side couldn't help but ask curiously, "Concubine Fang, why don't you just let Siwei give the hairpin to Steward Li?" ”

From Siwei's mouth, I learned that the top and bottom of the Lingwang Mansion were taken care of by Steward Li, and I am afraid that this kind of inconsiderate place was made by Steward Li, and there were too many comfortable days, and he also thought too highly of himself. He thought that if Chu Lian was not favored and had the support of King Ling, how could he know that his subordinates were subordinates, how could he snub his master.

Chu Lianruo pinned a strand of broken hair behind her ear, turned her eyes slightly, and was bottomless, her body was weak, and she gasped when she said a few more words, so she only said, "For people who don't know what to do, sometimes you can't benefit half a point." ”

Although Siyu didn't understand much, he didn't dare to ask more.

It was not unexpectedly for Lian Ruo to only invite the Feng family, the Feng woman was dressed in brocade clothes, her hair was neatly combed, and she also had a golden hairpin, but her face was a little haggard. It seems that this family is living a good life, how can ordinary people afford to wear brocade silk.

Feng Shi glanced at Chu Lianruo on the couch, but owed a debt, "The old slave visits the side concubine." ”

Chu Lianruo smiled softly at Feng and said, "The steward, please take a seat." He asked Siyu to pour tea for him, and Feng only said that the concubine didn't need to be so polite, but he still found a seat and sat down.

Feng Shi took a sip of tea, but the eyes of the superior side concubine, she couldn't look down on this side concubine anymore and couldn't calm down, she originally came for the sake of the hairpin, and she didn't want to come to this side concubine to see the side concubine, sure enough, this side concubine is a rare sick beauty, but the momentum between the weak makes her dare not take Qiao.

Chu Lianruo looked at Feng Shi pretending to be calm and took a sip of tea, and after putting it down, she looked at her, she stroked her face and said with a smile, "Steward Li's family looks at me like this, is there something on my face?" ”

Feng Shi hurriedly stopped and asked with some apprehension, "There is nothing on the side concubine's face, I don't know what happened to the side concubine calling the old slave?" ”
