The courtyard was completely reformed in the busy work of a group of subordinates.

As soon as Meng Xiaopao finished expressing the meaning of refusal, the housekeeper who had been waiting with him spoke:

"Splash Beauty, rest early, and the minions will take them back to rest."

opened his eyes and got up, ignoring Qu Tang, who was still resentful on the side, and replied to the housekeeper Chu Kai with a smile:

"There's a housekeeper."

Chu Hang nodded to accept the words of thanks, and then beckoned everyone to go back to sleep, clean up and leave one after another, at this time Chu Hang arranged a place for Qu Tang:

"There is no one in the east and five columns and No. 10 for the time being, and it is currently the most advanced courtyard, so Tang Meiren will move there."

As soon as the words fell, twelve subordinates came out of the courtyard in front of them, four women and eight men, each holding a large package in their hands, presumably some clothes and supplies from Qu Tang.

Ignoring Qu Tang's embarrassed appearance, he said goodbye to the housekeeper, and walked towards the room.

As soon as he stepped into the door, a sharp voice suddenly came from behind him:

"Splash Hime, you wait for me."

After warning Meng Xiaopao, he then yelled at the twelve subordinates: "Why are you still stunned, let's go." ”

Meng Xiaopao stumbled slightly, not because of Qu Tang's warning words, but because of the harsh title: Splash Ji.

While walking inward, he secretly wondered whether to let Gu Wangchen change his title.

Although her name is Meng Xiaopaw, the word 'splash' is not suitable for everyone to shout, such as the one just now, this word always has a feeling of taste in her mouth.

Suppress your thoughts and step into the living room.

All the facilities in the room are very luxurious, every piece of furniture is beautiful, and the carvings on it are incomparably fine.

In addition to this, there are many luxury goods, calligraphy and paintings, porcelain vases and so on.

There is a lot of space here, the decoration is classical and delicate, worthy of the prince, a concubine can live in this kind of independent courtyard, and it is a small villa in the previous life.

There are two floors here, and the downstairs rooms should be for the next person to live, and then there are washrooms, kitchens and other necessary facilities for life.

There were eight people standing in the living room, four men and four women, and this should be the person who arranged to serve the master.

Don't rush upstairs, sit down in the main seat of the living room, and get familiar with these people first.

"What are your names, in turn."

From left to right, the first one starts self-reporting.

“…………”

After all the self-reports, Meng Xiaopao didn't remember any of them.

The name is only something that will slowly leave an image after getting along for a long time.

Regardless of these for now, in order to make it easier for Meng Xiaopao to remember the names of the two good-looking maids.

"Manman, Ru Qing, you two will be responsible for working by my side in the future, and the remaining two beauties will be responsible for some simple services, as for the four little brothers, you will be responsible for taking care of the courtyard.

That's it for today, I'll talk about other things later, it's not early, you all go and rest.

By the way, don't you live downstairs? ”

The eight of them bent down in unison to thank them, and then the vine replied:

"If you return to Ji, the downstairs accommodation is arranged by the master, but ordinary male slaves can't live here, unless they have the permission of the prince."

Meng Xiaopao frowned and listened, and understood the meaning of what Manman said, after all, it was the prince's woman, and it was indeed inappropriate to let other men live in the courtyard of the concubine.

After understanding the reason, don't do this kind of exception, and ask again:

"And where do they live?"

This time the answer is Xiao Si on the far right:

"Xiao Si, who serves the beauties in the house, is in the backyard."

At this time, Meng Xiaopao was a little blind, and asked puzzledly:

"Isn't this the backyard?"

Xiao Si then replied:

"This is not a backyard, this is just a middle courtyard, the backyard is still on the periphery, and the backyard and the middle courtyard in the palace are like a 'back' shape.

The little masters here all live inside the Huizi, and the little Si all live outside the Huizi, and our residence is there. ”

After this explanation, Meng Xiaopao finally understood.

It is said that the backyard is high, and it is like a caged bird when you enter, but now it seems that it is not false at all, this is more than one wall.

No matter how tight this cage is, if you can't trap yourself, you don't dare to say anything else, you are first-class in light work, and you practiced it with the idea of escaping your life at the beginning, but now it seems that it was not in vain.

"Sound far enough, you don't have to go back in the future, you can choose the rooms downstairs by yourself, the women live upstairs with me, and the men all live downstairs, so as not to toss back and forth."

As soon as the words fell, the eight people knelt on the ground one after another, and the words in their mouths were all in unison:

"The master can't help it, and the rules in the house don't dare to disobey."

Meng Xiaopao felt the feudalism of the ancients at this time.

I recall that when I was in school, due to limited funds, the school built a dormitory building with only two floors, the second floor was a girls' dormitory, and the first floor was a boys' dormitory.

At that time, I was already in junior high school, and I was a half-adult, and I didn't see anyone else say anything at that time, so it was better to liberate society.

Thinking of this, I thought of Cheng Xuan's figure, his family let him experience rural life, so he let him come to the rural school for a year.

After dropping out of school in the first year of junior high school, he also went back to his original luxury school, and now I think about it, I really miss it.

His thoughts drifted a little far, and he accepted the sentimentality that gradually increased, ignoring the feudal thoughts of the eight people, and said in a slightly tough tone:

"Since I am the master, then do as I say, I will take care of it from the prince, you just listen to the order, don't talk nonsense.

Okay, it's not early, the woman went upstairs with me to sleep, and the man picked a room downstairs to sleep.

It's really my mother-in-law's, and I don't feel good at all. ”

After the fierce Zou Zou finished speaking, Meng Xiaobao got up and walked directly to the stairs on the second floor.

She left, but the eight people on the ground did not dare to get up, only to see them looking at each other, their eyes showing struggle and joy.

Meng Xiaopao had already stepped up the steps, but no one followed behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that the eight people were still kneeling on the ground, and he was very helpless in his heart, if they really didn't dare to live, forget it.

"If you really don't want to, forget it, I won't force it too much, you can go as you like."

As soon as the words fell, I saw Ru Qing suddenly get up and run over here, and several other people also got up when they saw this, and then they thanked them again:

"Thank you, Master, for the reward."

Meng Xiaopao was a little baffled by these words, just a place to live, this can also be a reward, their world is really incomprehensible.

The four girls behind him had already arrived in unison, ignoring their strange nerves, turning around and continuing to walk upstairs.

The upstairs is much more gorgeous than the downstairs facilities, the screens are embroidered with vivid and gorgeous flowers and plants, and there is a beaded curtain and gauze tent between the bed and the hall table, and the palace is indeed rich.

He sat down on a round stool wrapped in brocade cushions and looked at the four people who had been following him.

The four of them all had a understanding, and Representative Ru Qing spoke:

"Master, the palace has always been regular, the second floor is not allowed to live in the slaves, the first floor is also occupied by slaves and maids, and the male slaves must obtain the consent of the prince before they can live."

Hearing what Ru Qing meant, she was worried about her own assertions.

I feel a little relieved, but fortunately it is a group of kind-hearted people, otherwise it is really difficult to deal with:

"It's okay, you can live in peace, you don't have to worry about it, okay, you go and choose your own accommodation, it won't be long before dawn, I will smile directly in this master bedroom."

The four of them knew that it was getting late, and there were many opportunities to repay the gratitude in the future, so let Meng Xiaopao rest first.

They all retired, and the room was left alone.
