Yu Jingyun nodded with satisfaction: "That's fine, An Sheng has someone who can be a companion in the mansion." When you have free time, come here to talk to her. ”

Yu Lingsu was obviously unfamiliar with Yu Jingyun, and catered to him: "Lingsu just can't ask for it." ”

Before Yu Jingyun could speak, someone hurriedly came to report: "Lord Qiyu, someone has come to the palace, announce your entry into the palace." ”

He touched his nose and was a little reluctant: "You rest first, and I'll be back in a while." ”

An Sheng was worried about seeing Leng Nanxian, so he blurted out and advised: "Then you must come back early." ”

Yu Jingyun blinked proudly: "Are you reluctant to let me leave?" ”

On the side, Yu Lingsu couldn't help but cover her lips and snicker.

Ann glared at him angrily and didn't refute.

Yu Jingyunlang walked out of the courtyard with a smile and left directly.

Yu Lingsu turned his face: "Miss Ansheng is tired when she wants to come, so she goes in to rest, drink some tea, and eat some refreshments." ”

An Sheng got up early and was in a hurry to leave, so he didn't eat, and he was indeed a little hungry at this time, so he was not polite and entered the room.

The room is naturally bright and clean, antique jade, tent and bird's screen, full of splendor, compared to his own boudoir I don't know how many times more luxurious.

On the table, in addition to seasonal fruits, fragrant tea and jade cups, there are also three stacks of delicate dried fruits and desserts. Obviously, Yu Lingsu is extremely thoughtful and attentive.

An Sheng sat down, and immediately a waiting girl stepped forward, lightly poured her a cup of tea, held it with two jade onion-like fingertips, and respectfully handed it to An Sheng. As soon as he spoke, Yingsheng Yan said: "Miss Ansheng, please eat tea." ”

Yu Lingsu introduced attentively on the side: "This is specially sent by the eldest lady to serve you, called Jin Mi'er." ”

The word "deliberately" bites heavily, which clearly means something.

An Sheng glanced at the girl, with phoenix eyes and red lips, looking merry, and a pair of black lacquer-like eyes turned around, obviously a caring eye.

Such a beautiful appearance and figure, but she was wronged to be a girl who serves people?

An Sheng raised his face to look at Yu Lingsu, Yu Lingsu smiled and groaned, with a meaningful face.

An Sheng didn't understand the intention of Mrs. Hou's move at this time, but in Yu Lingsu's smile, he also understood that he should be wary of this Jin Mi'er.

Yu Lingsu called the two younger girls again: "These two are rough girls in the house, if you have any errands and cleaning, you can order them." One is called Peach, the other is called Apricot, catchy and easy to remember. ”

The two little girls probably entered the house not long ago, and timidly greeted An Sheng, and then withdrew.

Yu Lingsu sat down at An Sheng's hand, and after a few words of greeting, he became acquainted, sent Jin Mi'er down, and told An Sheng about the situation in the Hou Mansion.

An Sheng learned from Yu Lingsu that there was no division in the Hou Mansion, and all the rooms lived together, in addition to the Hou Ye's lineage, there were also two side branches.

In addition to Yu Jingyun, there are also three concubines, who are from each aunt. There are six or seven young ladies out of the cabinet, and in addition to Yu Lingsu, there are three daughters who have not yet reached the end of the court.

Yu Jingyun has been busy with court affairs, and he is arrogant, so he has not canonized the princess, but the three concubines have already started a family, and except for the young lady in each room, they have all accepted aunts and girls.

Coupled with the scattered branches and leaves of the side system, Lin Lin finally came down, and there were naturally a lot of female dependents, which made An Sheng dumbfounded.

Calculated in this way, isn't there only dozens of people in a Hou Mansion?

When I went to the Xia family's uncle's mansion before, I already felt dazzled, compared with the Hou Mansion, it was a small thing.

There is a huge Hou Mansion, so many people, so many mouths, food and clothing, and all kinds of expenses, I am afraid that they are all pressed on the Hou Ye and Yu Jingyun. A Hou Mansion all relies on the birth and death of two people in exchange for glory and wealth.

And Mrs. Hou Ye, in charge of the daily trivialities of such a big family, from food, clothing, housing and transportation, down to eating, drinking, and Lazar, but also to honor the old lady and serve the old Hou Ye, this is not an ordinary big pressure.

If that's all it takes, I'm afraid it's inevitable that it will be like Xia Fu, there are many people, there are many right and wrong, chickens and dogs jump every day, there are some intrigues and pickles, and some people envy and covet this high position.

It's harder than managing a harem!

The head of the Hou Mansion is really not something that ordinary people can do, it looks glorious, but in fact, he has worked so hard that he can't even sleep well.

Yu Lingsu's words had already made An Sheng's thoughts flutter and his heart frightened.

Moreover, when Yu Lingsu said these words, he inevitably had a whining emotion, and he was somewhat open-mouthed.

It seems that the two are not familiar with each other, and today is just the second time they have met, so they recklessly said such things, not cautious enough in words and deeds, but not like a girl who grew up in a place of right and wrong like the Hou Mansion.

After all, An Sheng was just an outsider, and he didn't have much to ask about the rights and wrongs of the Hou Mansion, so he didn't answer.

Yu Lingsu later realized that he was a little out of shape, and left the courtyard under the pretext of preparing lunch.

Lunch was brought by Kim Miel from the kitchen. Just after lunch, there were women from the house one after another. With a variety of purposes, he tried Ansheng in various ways.

Ansheng faced their temptation, and answered without revealing a drop of water, neither admitting nor denying, neither warm nor alienated. No matter who it is, it's polite.

For a while, this small courtyard was full of people.

Jin Mi'er is very clear about these intricate relationships in the house, which saves An Sheng from many embarrassments when he first arrives.

She also noticed that those aunts and ladies smiled knowingly when they first saw Jin Mier.

At the beginning, Ansheng could still remember a few people, but later there were more people who came and went, the same head full of pearls, silk and satin, the same peach flour cheeks, red lips and eyebrows, how many faces overlapped together, and I couldn't tell who was who and who was what.

But the three ladies in the concubine's room, she deliberately paid attention to the appearance.

It's not that she has any deliberate intentions, but that she lives in the Hou Mansion and lives in a sparse place, which must be remembered.

As soon as those aunts or young ladies came out of the courtyard door, they whispered and whispered about the future "princess".

An Sheng only felt as if he had passed five levels and killed six generals, and he was exhausted.

On the second day, An Sheng went to give the old lady acupuncture after breakfast.

Mrs. Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou Fu were also waiting with the front end of the tea and water, and An Shengju had seen them one by one.

The second lady met her for the first time, and even rewarded her with the same meeting gift, which was a close-fitting jade pendant around her waist, which was obviously very precious.

If An Sheng is just a medical girl, then this meeting gift is undoubtedly too expensive, and obviously has other meanings, but it is just tacit.

Mrs. Hou was on the side, always maintaining a warm and gentle smile on her face, and she didn't speak, and it was hard to figure out her thoughts.

An Sheng couldn't refuse, and was ashamed to accept the gift, so he abandoned these distractions and began to administer needles to the old lady.

After the needle was applied, the old lady didn't let her go, leaving her to have lunch together, which was regarded as catching the wind for her.

An Sheng was disrespectful, sitting at the bottom place, Mrs. Hou Ye and others asked, and replied softly, and the others didn't talk much, just listened with their ears.

Lunch was already ordered in advance, and the old lady also announced that several young ladies in the house would come over to accompany her, and they gathered around to eat tea and talk, which made An Sheng somewhat flattered.

The tea was also drunk twice, and before the banquet was ready, someone came in to pay a return to Mrs. Hou, saying that someone from outside had come and wanted to see her.

Mrs. Hou sat very upright, did not get up, and asked lazily, "Who is it?" What do you want to see me do, do you have to inquire clearly? ”

The maid who came back and forth raised her eyes to look at An Sheng, and swallowed the words that she wanted to blurt out later: "It's a woman, come to ask Madame to come and make the decision." ”

There are a lot of messy things in the house every day, and there are many relatives who come to see those who want to fight the autumn wind, and they can't beat the eight poles. The people in the mansion are all sensible, and they will be sent away without any important matters, and they do not dare to alarm Mrs. Hou.

A woman, who made a special trip to her, thought that there must be something important, and the people below did not dare to make decisions without permission.

Mrs. Hou Ye saw that the maid wanted to speak and stopped, and should be avoiding An Sheng, so she stood up, went out of the old lady's room, exchanged words with the maid, and then turned around and came back.

The old lady raised her eyelids and asked, "What's the matter, what is the fuss, I still have to see you?" I don't know how hard you work every day? ”

Mrs. Hou Ye walked up to the old lady, lowered her head and muttered a few words.

The old lady looked surprised, raised her face and asked, "Really?" ”

Mrs. Hou nodded: "That's what I said, I just don't know if it's true or not." ”

The old lady smiled "hehe": "Do you need to say this?" You, who are mothers, know it, otherwise how could you be so calm? ”

Mrs. Hou also smiled slightly: "You always think so, right?" ”

The old lady glanced at An Sheng and said meaningfully: "Announce that woman to me." ”

Mrs. Hou was stunned: "How can you bother with such a small matter?" The daughter-in-law sent her away. ”

The old lady squinted slightly and shook her head: "What did you do?" Just take the opportunity to knock on these prodigals, so that they can also restrain their behavior, after all, it is not easy for the two of them to lay the foundation of our Hou Mansion, but they can't let them ruin the name of our Hou Mansion casually. ”

Mrs. Hou Ye nodded: "What you always say is very true, or do you always feel sorry for them." ”

He turned around and went out to make arrangements.

The old lady instructed the second lady who was confused on the side: "Send someone to call all the ladies in the house and listen in the courtyard." ”

The second lady didn't dare to ask more, so she got up and went.
