The new six little girls. The names are Thrush, Five Blessings, Apricot Red, Willow Green, Lotus and Silver Ring. Among them, Wufu because Aunt Qing and Dong'er felt that the name was too rustic, so they changed their names to Zigui. Huo Yi didn't object, and everyone called accordingly.

Chunying explained the rules of the courtyard one by one, while carefully observing the six people in front of her. These little girls are all very good-looking, and two or three of them are quite delicate, especially apricot red, two curved thin eyebrows, a pair of apricot-like big eyes blinking, very smart, plus fair skin, red lips and bright teeth, but at the age of thirteen or fourteen, it can already be seen that she will be a beauty in the future.

Chunying was a little puzzled, how could a girl of such quality be sent here? Isn't it reasonable to have been picked out a long time ago? But the old lady dotes on her granddaughter very much, probably intentionally sent over, right?

It was only after talking to the six new girls that she changed her mind. Although Xinghong is outstanding, her temperament is not very peaceful, in front of Chunying, because she is a qualified sister, she always speaks well. From time to time, I pat a sycophant, just because of my lack of experience, it is easy for people to hear, and between words, I always like to inquire about Miss Biao intentionally or unintentionally, such as "I heard that Miss Biao is very cold, will it be difficult to get along", "People say that Miss Biao is the future third young grandmother of our family, she will not tolerate people", "Does the third young master come here often", and so on. Chun Ying became vigilant, just took some vague words and dealt with them casually, and secretly reminded herself in her heart that she couldn't let Xinghong wait in the upper room, and she had to beat her well, lest she cause trouble outside and affect the others in Miss Cousin's courtyard.

Among the other five, the thrush and the youngest lotus gave Chunying the best impression. The thrush has a calm temperament and is the oldest, and it seems to have been picked up from the sewing room, and the female red is very good. Little Lotus is a little honest and doesn't like to talk much, but she has a good temper, often laughing with crooked eyebrows and eyes, and her little face is red.

Zigui and Liulu are very mediocre, as for Yinhuan, she is too cold, and she often looks at people from the corner of her eyes, and she doesn't seem to look down on other girls. Chunying asked. I knew that she was literate, and when she was at home, she had studied "Three Character Classics" and "Hundred Family Names" with her father for two years, and she understood a little. However, the literate girl can still be proud of herself elsewhere, the girl next to Miss Biao, eight out of ten are literate, the former Jinxiu and Linglong also learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Dong'er Ju'er They are not bad, Yinhuan just knows words, but there is nothing to be proud of. Chunying secretly wrote down that she would mention more in the future.

Knowing the temperament and expertise of the six people, Chunying secretly thought for a moment and assigned them positions. Thrush is naturally responsible for the needlework of Miss Biao and Aunt Qing, Zigui and Xinghong and Liulu are responsible for cleaning the yard, Lotus is mobile and is responsible for running errands, and Yinhuan is going to help Ju'er. Except for Xinghong, who was not very satisfied with her work and whispered a few complaints, everyone obediently bent their knees and answered "yes".

Chunying smiled and reiterated the rules in the courtyard again, including the Hou Mansion and the Huo family, and suddenly put her smile away at the end. Said coldly: "I have an ugly sentence to say in front, since you have come to this courtyard, you must follow the rules here, if anyone feels that they have been wronged, speak now, I will go back to Miss and Auntie, and let Mother Guan bring someone else to replace you, otherwise, if you make a mistake in the future, don't blame us for being polite!" ”

The six of them were silent for a while, and two or three of them secretly exchanged glances and did not say anything. Chunying noticed that Xinghong flattened her mouth, and Yinhuan seemed to be smiling. Looks like it's a bit of a problem...... She cleared her throat and continued, "Since no one has spoken, they are all willing to stay and serve Miss Cousin well?" From now on, just be an errand, Miss Cousin will not treat you badly! ”

Because of the Qing Shark's explanation, the fact that several of their maids-in-law from the Hou Mansion received double salaries was not widely publicized, presumably the little girls living outside the mansion may not know, right? In fact, Huo Yi is very good at serving, she is not a young master, and the girls around her don't need to compete for the top position to be an aunt, so the courtyard is very calm, but it takes a long time to understand all this.

Chunying was not verbose, led them to various places and handed them over to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in charge, and took the silver ring to see Ju'er, and then went to see Huo Yi and Aunt Qing, reported the incident separately, and waited until they nodded. I went back to my room and breathed a sigh of relief.

Shi'er sneakily touched it, covered her mouth by the door and snickered, Chunying said angrily: "What are you laughing at?" I just said that my mouth was dry, but you just hid to the side and didn't come to help! Don't forget, you're second class now, just like me! ”

Shi'er jumped into the house and sat down, and said with a smile: "I'm still new, and I can't compare to what you have experienced." Look at your posture just now, you have a decent appearance, no worse than those first-class girls! What am I going to do? ”

Chun Ying casually picked up the unfinished purse in the sewing basket and threw it over: "Laugh at me?!" What am I, you don't know yet? I'm so nervous! You're still watching me laugh on the sidelines! ”

Shi'er hurriedly caught the purse, came up and said with a smile: "It's nothing!" How good did you say? I don't lie to you! Even if it's Sister Meixiang and Sister Lu'er, it's nothing more than that! ”

"Really?" Chunying blinked, a little unconvinced, but she was still quite happy in her heart. This means that she has evolved from a rookie to an old bird, right? After that, you have to work harder, and you must not ask newcomers to see jokes! She secretly clenched her fists and made up her mind.

Shi'er pursed his lips and smiled, suddenly remembered something, and said a little dejectedly: "If you want to train a newcomer, you must have no time to joke with us...... The second sister doesn't know what she's doing lately.,Wandering spirit.,Talking to her.。 She doesn't pay attention to people...... I suddenly felt a little bored......"

Chunying was surprised: "What's wrong with you?" Nanqi has been a little weird lately, but it's just not very energetic, I think she's okay, shouldn't you worry? ”

Shi'er pouted: "How can I not worry?" The family didn't know what they were thinking...... I'm just afraid that the second sister will be confused! ”

Chunying straightened up, thought about what had happened recently, and nodded slowly: "I think the root cause is in Nanqi's marriage." Didn't you say earlier that your wife always called back to your house? I heard that my wife has relented recently? I don't have a letter yet, but I think it...... It's okay to ask Aunt Qing for it. Miss is embarrassed to care, Aunt Qing can always call the shots, right? Or do you ......" suddenly widened his eyes and muffled his voice to the point that only two people could hear him. "You're worried that Nanqi will go...... Gao Pan young masters? ”

Shi'er's eyes also widened: "How come?!" My second sister ......" suddenly found that her voice was too loud, and she hurriedly lowered her eighty percent, "Absolutely not!" If you want to climb the young masters, why wait until today?! Besides, in this full house, where is there a young master to climb?! The eldest young master doesn't look down on our family, and if he doesn't fall into the well, he is kind; The second young master hasn't come back yet, the third young master...... Joke, the people in his courtyard are about to fight, if my second sister intervenes again, won't she be torn apart by those girls?! ”

Chun Ying thought about it, but she was still skeptical: "Isn't the second young master coming back soon?" Nanqi has waited for him again, although he has been transferred to Miss Biao's side for so many years, it stands to reason that it is impossible to let her go back, but the matter is uncertain...... I remember that your Wang family seems to be quite close to the second young master. ”

"That was once upon a time!" Shi'er cautiously glanced out of the door before leaning closer and whispering, "Because of the second young master, my uncle and grandfather have been wronged a lot in the past few years!" I don't know what others think, but the second sister will never go back! I'm afraid that except for the uncle, no one else has that heart! The second sister has been worried recently, but I'm afraid that after the second young master comes back, the aunt will have thoughts that she shouldn't have and force her to be small! ”

When Chunying heard this, she was also a little worried: "What should I do then?" "If Nanqi takes a firm stance...... As long as Miss Biao doesn't let people go, it shouldn't be...... Otherwise, I will ask Nanqi to say, I am already a person next to Miss Biao, and then I will wait for the second young master, others will gossip, how about it? ”

Shi'er leaned on the quilt and sighed: "But if the aunt finds Miss Cousin, Miss Cousin will definitely say that everything is decided by the house......"

Chunying frowned, but she couldn't think of any solution, so she had to keep an eye on Nanqi's situation, and found that after she was confused for a few days, she suddenly seemed to have made up her mind. The whole person has returned to his original ability.

What was her determination?

Chunying looked at Nanqi talking and laughing with Dong'er, Ju'er and others, and there was no trace of discord, and her heart was even more doubtful. Recently, Nanqi seems to come to Huo Yi and Aunt Qing from time to time to flatter, and the good things he says are ten times better than Xinghong, which often makes Huo Yi laugh out loud. You know, this has been an amazing phenomenon in the past three years!

Chunying tried to ask Nanqi why she was in a better mood recently, but Nanqi smiled and pointed to the new girls who were working outside the door, and said: "Chunying has been teaching newcomers recently, and it seems that they are doing a good job, I see that they all know the rules, they are very polite when they walk, talk and do things, even if they are crazy outside, they don't have disheveled clothes, messy hair walking around, and losing their physique, which is all the credit of my sister." I've heard that you take the time to gather them together every day and teach them how to walk, sit, lie down and talk? Originally, I was worried that the first time you did it, there would be negligence, but I didn't expect you to do it better than I thought. ”

"Really?" Chunying was overjoyed in her heart, and suddenly felt full of confidence, but after thinking about it, she was almost successfully changed the topic by Nanqi, and she turned back busily, "Sister Nanqi has been ...... recently"

"But my sister still has a few things that I can't do enough." Nanqi quickly interrupted her question, pointed out a few mistakes, and highlighted Xinghong and Yinhuan, "That Xinghong has always begged to run errands in other courtyards these days, I have asked, either to the third young master's courtyard, or to the wife's courtyard." Someone told me that she didn't seem to be very comfortable, and that such an errand should not be let go again in the future, so as not to lose the face of the young lady. Also, Yinhuan is almost disgusted these days, and no one wants to talk to her, even Ju'er is complaining, saying that she is not easy to call. Although she is Ju'er's subordinate, you have received the task of disciplining the newcomer, and you must also take care of it. ”

Chun Ying hurriedly said: "Xinghong's matter, I was negligent, I will rearrange it, but the situation of Yinhuan, I deliberately left it alone, her heart is too high, she has to take a good blow, otherwise she will not be convinced." I see that the heat is almost the same now, so I'll talk to her tomorrow. ”

Nanqi smiled and nodded, pulled her to discuss a few more things about Miss Cousin, and then left. Chunying then remembered that she had been fooled again, and couldn't help but grit her teeth secretly.

Well, she knew that although she was an old bird, Nanqi was obviously older than her。.。
