Chapter 80: Plan Ahead
Yuwen Zhengji originally wanted to find Shen Tuwen to give him these questions, but who would have thought that Shen Tuwen was not at home.
He didn't want to run in vain, so he simply pulled Mama Chang to play.
"Mama Chang, you said that Liu Dahu's family raised a pig and a donkey, who will you kill first after the New Year?"
"Oops, Amitabha! Yuwen Gongzi, the old body eats fasting, this question must not be answered! Mama Chang was so frightened when she heard that her hands trembled.
"Hey, I'll get you another one. A and B, A said to B, if you can guess what is in my basket? I'll divide half of the eggs in the basket, and if you can guess how many eggs are in the basket, I'll give you all sixty eggs. So tell me what is in this basket? How many are there? ”
Yuwen Zheng asked Mama Chang with a blank eye.
"What's this called a problem?!" Mama Chang frowned and said, "Isn't this question a fool!" ”
Yuwen Zhengji went home dejectedly, in the Great Qin Kingdom 4, he was the youngest, but if it came to playfulness, he was definitely the heaviest.
His parents do business in the Western Regions all year round, and they only go home twice a year, and he is the largest in the entire Yuwen Mansion.
He happily ran outside to show off a few newly learned stories, but he didn't expect to touch a gray nose, so he couldn't be interested in talking to others anymore.
Jiang Jiang came out from Yuwen Zhengji and went directly to the housekeeper.
Yan Xi took her to wander around in Yuwen Mansion, Jiang Jiang took a fancy to a set of tea art jars in the tea room, this thing is as big as a fist, with a big belly and a small mouth, there are ten of them, both in size, shape and quantity, Jiang Jiang is very satisfied.
"Steward Yan, please put this set of things up for me, I want to borrow it." Jiang Jiang said to Yan Xi.
"It's easy to say, this thing is not precious," Yan Xi shook his fat face and said, "It was brought back from the Western Regions by the lord and his wife last time, and the tea sets in the room are cheap at the top." ”
"Don't worry, Steward Yan, I won't break it, and I can take it back after I use it," Jiang Jiang said, "Tomorrow, Steward Lao Yan will divide a few maids to help me." ”
"It's easy to say, there is nothing else in the house, but there are too many maids." Yan Xi smiled and said, "But, if you have a chance, you can tell me a few more jokes, I think of the appearance of sixty-five and fifty-four now, and my bowels hurt when I laugh." ”
"That's easy, I'll tell you two more if you like." Jiang Jiang doesn't care, she knows a lot of jokes, and besides, she can't do without the help of the housekeeper all the time in this mansion.
Looking at Yuwen Zhengji's appearance of having nothing to do, there is no need to please him at all, he is used to being flattered when he is a child, Jiang Jiang decided to do the opposite.
Next, Yan Xi took Jiang Jiang to see the accommodation arranged for her.
Although the ordinary servants of Yuwen Mansion lived well, Jiang Jiang's was obviously better.
The morning sun is bright and dark in the room, there is a table and a few chairs outside the room, which can not only meet guests but also eat, and also assign her a maid to use, called the red line.
"It's also lunchtime, today is your first meal in the house, I am very close to you, let's eat together!" said to Jiang Jiang: "From dinner, you will use it alone in your room, and when the time comes, Hongxian will naturally go to the kitchen to bring the rice." ”
"It's really a housekeeper for Lao Yan," Jiang Jiang expressed his gratitude: "It's really an honor to be respectful and obey your fate." ”
"Brother Jiang, you're welcome. I can see that you are a capable person, let's support each other and share the blessings! Yan Xi smiled like a Maitreya Buddha.
He has been a housekeeper in Yuwen Mansion for ten years, and he still has this eyesight. In his opinion, Jiang Jiang will not be able to unveil the list successfully, and he will definitely not be an ordinary servant when he enters the mansion and becomes a slave.
With his cleverness, he can be a second manager. What's more, he is so young, and his future prospects are limitless, so he intends to recruit Jiang Jiang.
With Jiang Jiang's attitude towards the world, he naturally would not let go of such a good connection, and immediately called Yan Xi a brother and brother, as if he had made friends in the world for many years.
After lunch, I rested for a while, and it was afternoon. Jiang Jiang came to the kitchen, borrowed the stone mill for grinding soy milk, and asked for a small coarse jar.
Then he went back to the room alone, not knowing what to do, and he was not even allowed to go in.
He didn't leave the house until dinner.
Red Line went to the kitchen to serve food, and met the second-class maid Peony in the West Courtyard.
The two of them usually have a good relationship, and the new person who came to unveil the list this morning made both the housekeeper and Yuwen Gongzi laugh, and this matter has long been spread all over the world.
Peony knew that Hongxian was assigned to serve Jiang Jiang, so she was naturally very curious, and asked her quietly: "I heard that this person is not very old and looks quite handsome, isn't that so?" ”
"You're not bad, but what's wrong with this person? What the hell was he doing by locking himself in the house? Red Line said suspiciously.
Peony thought about it and said, "But he was able to survive the first day safely, which is already quite good." In the past, the largest number of people who entered the house could only last until that night! still relied on non-stop performance juggling, and finally I was so tired that I lost my strength. But he seems to be very relaxed, maybe he can really succeed! ”
"Who knows, everyone who comes thinks they have real skills, but after so many years, how can anyone really meet the requirements of the childe?" Red Line shook her head.
"I'll play with you again after dinner, the food will be cold for a while, and the peonies and the others will scold again." Peony thought that she still had to bring back dinner, so she didn't dare to continue the conversation with Red Line.
"But what! I also have to go back quickly, although his current identity is just a guest, and he may be the same person as us in the future, but I can't snub him too much, it seems that we don't understand the rules, and in the future, he will be a little girl, and he may not laugh at me with this. Red Line said and left.
Jiang Jiang looked at the things that were gradually taking shape and felt very satisfied. Put them in a small clean jar, carefully seal them, and put them under the bed.
It's one of her secret weapons, but it's going to take a while to get it out.
"Jiang Gongzi, come out to eat!" The red line politely cares about greeting outside the house.
"Alright, here we go!" Jiang Jiang agreed, lifted the curtain and came out.
Red Line only felt that Jiang Jiang had a bad smell on his body, and he couldn't tell what it was, so he didn't know what he was doing in the house?
"You sit down too, and we'll eat together." Jiang Jiang said enthusiastically to the red line: "I have just arrived, and I will often ask you if I don't understand something, so I will tell you about the trouble first." ”
"No, no, don't be so polite," Red Line shook her head and said, "If I knew, I would have told you." ”
