Chapter Seventy-Six: The Treatment of the Subordinates
After making an appointment with the shopkeeper for the next time, Xia Yan was in a good mood, jumped on the donkey cart brought by Xia Huai, and staggered home.
So there was a strange sight of a carriage followed by a donkey cart, and those who didn't know thought that it was the master who sat in the carriage.
Looking at the carriage behind him that was still stable on the bumpy road, Xia Yan couldn't help but wonder if he should modify his donkey cart and get a comfortable carriage out.
Not long after Xia Yan left, in the study of a magnificent family in the county seat, the pompous young man who had been trampled on the ground by her before was losing his temper at the little guy kneeling on the ground: "Why, I can't find anyone after only one day?" ”
"Young master, our county town is too big, yesterday we waited for a night near Yaxing and didn't wait for anyone, and today we went around the city again and still couldn't find it. You say, will they not be from our county? ”
The pompous young man didn't want to listen to the little girl's explanation, so he slammed the teacup on the table on the ground and scolded: "Don't make excuses for me, you idiots, you can't even find a little girl, why am I raising you, master!" Find me again! ”
"Yes...... Be. Seeing that the pompous young man was angry, the little guy hurriedly trembled, and was about to turn around and go out, but he stopped him, "Wait, and send a few more people who have seen the little slut to guard the city gate, and if you see her enter the city, report to me immediately." If you don't find anyone this time, you'll never come back! ”
After the little guy should retreat, the pompous young man had a black face, crumpled the rice paper on the table, and secretly swore that if he didn't give the little slut a little color, he wouldn't call Gao Yuxing in the future.
Xia Yan didn't know that someone was waiting for her at the city gate at this time, but even if she knew, she wouldn't take it to heart.
In this way, in the joke with Xia Huai and Yan, the group finally returned home.
As soon as the newly bought seven people got out of the car, they were attracted by the newly built yard.
Except for Mr. Jiang Ping, the bookkeeper, and Granny Li, the rough envoy's mother-in-law, who had stayed in a large family before, and were used to seeing this kind of house, and thought it was okay, the other five people were all from the countryside, and it was the first time they had seen a country house with such a style.
Maybe this is a tradition in Bianxi Village?
Otherwise, why is there a more luxurious-looking courtyard next to it?
Just as they were amazed, Xia Yan and Yan led a few people to arrange a place to stay.
Granny Li and Jiang Ping lived in the inverted house next to the left side of the gate, where there was a row of houses, and the two of them could choose the house they liked to live in at will.
Lin Zhou's father, Lin Yuan, lived in the gatehouse on the right side of the gate, and since he and the cook Sister-in-law He were husband and wife, it was really unbeautiful to let them separate, so he let Sister-in-law He also live in the gatehouse.
Because Lin Zhou was a scholar specially prepared for Xia Huai, he naturally wanted to live with Xia Huai. So he was arranged outside Xia Huai's house.
And the two newly bought girls, in order to match the names of Anzhi Tinglan, Xia Yan named them Yu'er and Qing'er respectively. As Yan's personal maids, they live in the outer room of the bedroom of the main house.
Because these two are just little girls who have just been sold by their families, and they have no experience in serving people, they can only ask An Zhi Tinglan to help take them for a few days.
When the two of them saw Anzhi Tinglan, they couldn't help but bow their heads in inferiority, because they were so beautiful. In this entire courtyard, only the lady can compare to them, and even the young lady, because she has not yet grown, and the faint birthmark on her face, looks a little inferior.
These two people have an indescribable nobility between their hands and feet. This kind of temperament, they have only seen in Madame, but it is not very common, it is just revealed by her inadvertently.
"Miss, are they really your maids?" Qing'er is the kind of person who can't hide her words, and she can't help but ask curiously.
"yes." Xia Yan smiled, "Are you wondering why my maid is more beautiful than me?" ”
Qing'er was seen through by Xia Yan, her face turned red, and she lowered her head.
Even if she couldn't hide her words anymore, she didn't dare to admit this thought, and it would not be good if the young lady was angry and kicked her out.
"It's very simple." Xia Yan didn't look a little annoyed, "I like to look at beauties, the more pleasing beauties I see, the better my mood will become, and when I am in a good mood, I will naturally become beautiful." ”
"Really?" The innocent Qing'er didn't know that Xia Yan was in one again
