430 Asking for a concubine
"Okay, you two still dare to stop your aunt and not let us in. Auntie, these two things that don't know what to do, let the slave and maid send someone to sell them, and see who dares not to listen to the aunt in the house in the future! Cuilan said loudly, and her cruel gaze swept back and forth from the two guards, but she was just guarding the door for Zhou Mingmu, what was there to be arrogant, she didn't even look at the pregnant Qinglian in her eyes, she really didn't have any eyesight.
Qinglian snorted lightly, turned her head and said coquettishly: "You girl is amazing, don't make trouble for me, husband, husband, are you in the house?" Husband, husband! "She came this time mainly to find Zhou Mingmu, not to punish the little guy. The two little guys breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and their hearts hanging in the air began to land, Cuilan, the dog and the powerful maid, they remembered her, and one day they would definitely let her taste it, don't think that the two brothers are easy to bully.
Qinglian screamed outside for a long time, her voice was almost hoarse, but there was still no movement in the house, Zhou Mingmu didn't plan to ignore her, she stomped her feet angrily, raised her legs and kicked the two little guys, "Don't knock on the door for me!" "I really thought that if she didn't sell the two of them, she could watch the excitement here, and she didn't have to do anything. Qinglian was pregnant, kicked them, and couldn't fight back, could it be that she really didn't want to stay in the Chengguo Mansion?
Two little guys, you look at me, I look at you, "Husband, if you keep refusing to open the door, the concubine will accompany you here, not eating or drinking!" "Qinglian is determined to see Zhou Mingmu this time, it has been a few days, he should also let go, Lin Dongxian and the child are dead, they deserve it, God punished them, why should Zhou Mingmu punish herself, let her look unbearable.
Chang Mingsheng had just come back from the yamen, he had just sat down, he would have a cup of tea, the maid was beating him on the back, and when he was old, he always felt a faint pain in his body, and his shoulders were even more sore. Every time I go back to the house, I always have to find two powerful maids to massage him, so that he can sleep comfortably at night. In any case, for his sake, or for the honor and disgrace of the entire family, he must definitely take care of himself.
Only when he is alive can the family prosper, and he must not leave the world. Once he is gone, everything is afraid that it will be messed up, and the unadulterated son makes him feel uneasy, thinking that Mr. Chang's brain began to hurt, the maid saw this and put her hands on his brain and began to knead it, this gentle force made Mr. Chang slowly lie on the couch, close his eyes and squint for a while.
When he woke up, it was already nightfall, and he scratched the rare prize for this girl, "Whatever reward you want, just ask." "He had a good night's sleep, and of course he was not stingy with the maid. When the maid heard this, she was overjoyed, raised her eyes in disbelief and looked at Chang Mingsheng, then quickly lowered her head, knelt on the ground, and said nothing. This appearance surprised Chang Mingsheng, and he pulled the corners of his mouth: "Mingyu, what's wrong, this is, who bullied you?" ”
How does Mrs. manage the backyard, she can actually let Mingyu be bullied, although Mingyu is a maid, but if there is no Mingyu by his side to massage him and relieve his pain, where will everyone in Changfu be honored. He had mentioned to his wife more than once that he would give Mingyu more snacks, give her more rewards on weekdays, and raise her monthly salary to ten taels of silver a month.
Chang Mingsheng snorted unhappily, "Mingyu, what grievances have you suffered in the house, although you tell the truth, you don't have to have any scruples." I'm not old enough to move, and I'm still in charge of this Changfu! If you don't say it, then blame me for going out to find someone to investigate, and don't blame me for not being merciful when the time comes! "can be mixed in the officialdom for many years, it is natural to see that Mingyu wants to speak and stop, if she is not forced to say it, she will have no fun, he doesn't like to drag mud and water.
Mingyu looked up at Chang Mingsheng excitedly, her eyes were red, and she hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, thank you, master, it's just that the slave is really not wronged, it's the slave's mother who is about to die, the slave and the maid think that there are still two months for the slave and the maid to leave the house, and want to beg the lord to let the slave and maid leave the house as soon as possible, accompany the mother, send her on the last journey, do a daughter's filial piety, and ask the lord for permission." ”
Chang Mingsheng didn't squeak, thinking about whether she was telling the truth or a lie, Mingyu is not a child, she was bought to Changfu as an errand since she was a child, this maid can step by step to today's position, it is not easy, she doesn't want to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion, ten taels of silver a month, I'm afraid that there is no such treatment in any house, and he also rewards Mingyu with some small things from time to time, which is also worth a lot of money.
"In this way, you can go back to take care of your mother, and smile as much as you can, but when your mother dies, you still have to go back to Changfu. The deed of sale you signed was for fifteen years, and now that it has expired, I will ask my wife to sign one with you. Chang Mingsheng smiled and stretched out his hand to get up, took the tea cup in his hand and drank it.
Mingyu was immediately stunned, but he didn't expect to say these words from Chang Mingsheng's mouth. She subconsciously refused: "The slave and maid thank the master for his grace, but the slave and maid don't want to go back to the house, please forgive the master." It's the slave who doesn't know what to do and wants to stay with her father and brother. "Greedy for the warmth brought to her by her family, Chang Mingsheng's good mood today has been ruined by Mingyu, but he sincerely let Mingyu stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she is good, she has been rejecting him.
Chang Mingsheng finally couldn't hold back the anger in his chest, and with a bang, he threw the tea cup in his hand on the ground, Mingyu was so frightened that her heart hung in the air, banging, and was about to pop out of her throat, she was telling the truth, not half a lie, she really didn't want to stay in Changfu. Even though there was more money here than outside, she was also bullied and could not stay any longer.
"Someone, go and invite Madame over!" Chang Ming didn't believe it when he was alive, the huge Chang Mansion couldn't even keep a maid, he gave an order, Mingyu wanted to change how easy it was, and when Mrs. came, I was afraid it would end even harder! Not long after, two maids lifted the curtain and let Mrs. Chang in, Mrs. Chang was dressed in cyan clothes, a cyan pomegranate skirt, and a cyan gauze dress.
On the shoulders was a cloak made of fine pale yellow silk, which matched the skirt, which was embroidered with white lilies. The upper layer of hair is coiled in a circle, with a few hairpins inlaid with emeralds, and the lower layer scatters three thousand green silks on the shoulders, and the earrings are also inlaid with emeralds. The white jade neck, with a necklace of pearls and emeralds, adds a lot of style to the jade neck.
The years seem to be very tired of Mrs. Chang, and she has not left many traces on her face, and she also pays attention to maintenance on weekdays, so that Mrs. Chang looks much younger than ordinary ladies of the same age. Standing with Chang Mingsheng, not like a husband and wife, but like a father and daughter. As soon as Mrs. Chang entered the room, she first looked at it quietly, Chang Mingsheng's face was not very good, and he had a gloomy face, afraid that he was in a bad mood.
and Mingyu, who was kneeling on the ground, with a miserable white face, had already said that this maid was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she was going to drive her out of the house, but Chang Mingsheng didn't listen to her. What do you say Mingyu can massage, the strength is good, joke, this huge Changfu, can't you find a little guy who can massage, but Chang Mingsheng said this, of course she could only smile and follow his meaning.
Who made him the head of the Changfu family, and he couldn't disobey him, otherwise she wouldn't be able to bear the consequences. "The concubine has seen the master." Mrs. Chang leaned over to salute Chang Mingsheng, he didn't even raise his eyes, Mrs. Chang walked straight to Mingyu and asked: "What are you doing, why did you make the master angry, master, the concubine body has long said that this maid can't stay, and the master still asks the concubine body to send this maid out of the house, and then I will find you a few maids who are more proficient in massage techniques to return to the house." ”
"Shut up!" Chang Mingsheng swept over with a cold eye, Mrs. Chang frowned subconsciously, and the anger in her heart suddenly surged into her heart, and the fierceness in her eyes almost couldn't be hidden, but she had been managing in the backyard for many years, and she still had a lot of self-control, so she quickly covered it up, rubbed it and walked over with a smile, "Master, what's wrong with you?" The concubine didn't say the wrong thing, master, since this maid has made you unhappy, it is better to send her out, as the old saying goes, the old one does not go, and the new one does not come. ”
Mingyu listened to Mrs. Chang's words, not to mention how happy she was, she couldn't wait to leave Chang Mansion as soon as possible, which made her feel suffocated. Chang Mingsheng brushed her hand away, which made Mrs. Chang a little embarrassed, coughed dryly twice, and withdrew the hand hanging in the air, "Who said that Yu made me unhappy, I called you here to let you check, who is so bold that even the maids around me dare to bully, it's not that you don't take me seriously." Madam, I trust you very much, so I can rest assured that the affairs of the house will be in your hands, but what are you doing now, how can you reassure me? ”
Chang Mingsheng's suspicious words made Mrs. Chang's face white and red, and she couldn't help but slander in her heart, what kind of tongue did Mingyu, a dead girl, chew in front of Chang Mingsheng, making him so angry. "Master, you calm your anger and dissipate your anger, Mingyu is the most favored maid by your side, who will bully her, I can't spare her first. Mingyu, raise your head and tell me, who bullied you, Madame will stand up for you! "Mrs. Chang will be able to see that the reason why Chang Mingsheng asked her to come over is just to stand up for Mingyu, she just needs to follow his wishes.
In front of Chang Mingsheng, she had to say this, no matter how she pressed and asked, Mingyu refused to say, looking at her appearance of not saying anything about being beaten to death, of course Mrs. Chang was angry, this maid is still holding it to this day, is it not for the sake of Chang Mingsheng's love for her massage, he has already done it to her, and he will endure her to this day.
"Master, madam, the eldest young master is out asking to see you." The little girl walked in, bowed and said, Chang Mingsheng's eyes fell on Mingyu who was kneeling on the ground, just now she heard the eldest young master coming, obviously her body took two steps back, her hands curled up involuntarily, and Chang Mingsheng's eyes became sharp. Of course, Mrs. Chang didn't notice this scene, and hurriedly asked the little maid to invite her eldest son, Chang Deli, in, "My son has seen his father and mother. ”
Chang Deli was wearing a dark purple Guangling gown, a moon-white lychee ribbon tied around his waist, a long hair that was not messy, a pair of popular peach blossom eyes, and a sturdy figure. Mrs. Chang smiled: "Why are you here, you are tired after a day in the Yamen, go back to the house and rest, your father and I are fine, you don't have to worry about it." ”
As he spoke, he got up and walked to Chang Deli's side and patted the back of his hand to comfort him, who knew that Chang Deli shook his head, "No, mother, my son is here today for an important matter, and I want to ask my father and mother to fulfill it." Saying that, he knelt on the ground, Mrs. Chang didn't know how to react for a while, but Chang Mingsheng took over, "What do you need us to fulfill you?" ”
"Back to my father's words, my son has been in love with Mingyu in your house for a long time, and I want to ask him to go back to be an aunt, and I ask my father for permission." Chang Deli didn't hesitate to speak, Mingyu pinched his clothes, his eyes were full of fear, how could he say it, asking her to be an aunt, he laughed a few times in his heart. Chang Mingsheng didn't miss this scene, and turned his head to glare at Chang Deli, "Do you really want to be an aunt for the maid in your father's house?" ”
This is to persuade him to think carefully before answering, Mrs. Chang has come to her senses at this moment, and keeps giving Chang Deli a look, asking him not to be so reckless, shouldn't he discuss it with her mother in case of trouble, and then come to Chang Mingsheng. This one is really too reckless, she is too familiar with Chang Mingsheng, this matter will definitely make him angry. The son fell in love with the massage maid in his father's house, Chang Mingsheng was a long-time officialdom, as the first assistant of the dynasty, how could he allow others to covet the things around him, no matter who it was, not even his own son.
Mingyu is a cheap maid, Chang Mingsheng just looks at her a few times, if it weren't for Chang Mingsheng's age, Mrs. Chang really wants to suspect that Mingyu's motives are impure, and she wants to get any benefits from Chang Mingsheng. But I don't know when she hooked up with her baby son, the son wants the maid in his father's room to be his aunt, it's not a good thing to spread it, Mrs. Chang has to stop it first!
"Back to his father's words, the son has made up his mind to Mingyu, and he asks his father to fulfill it!" Chang Deli didn't take Mrs. Chang's eyes in his eyes, and replied with an oath. Chang Mingsheng played with the jade wrench in his hand, and turned his head to face Mingyu: "The eldest young master wants you to be your aunt, can you agree?" Chang Deli's heart was about to jump to his throat at the moment, he knew that Chang Mingsheng was powerful, if he hadn't learned that Mingyu was going out of the house as soon as he returned home, Chang Mingsheng and Mrs. Chang were there, he would definitely not have come over.
Mingyu bit her lip lightly: "If you go back to the master, the slave has a humble status and is not worthy of the eldest young master." "Mrs. Chang's heart has landed, Mingyu, this girl is quite knowledgeable, self-aware, knowing that she is not worthy of Chang Deli, she is not even worthy of carrying shoes for Chang Deli, let alone being his aunt.
"It's not a good one, Mingyu, I'm afraid you're not a virgin for a long time!" Chang Mingsheng's eagle-sharp eyes swept straight over, making Mingyu open his mouth wide in fright, and he didn't come to his senses for a long time. But Mrs. Chang seemed to understand something, her eyes fell on Chang Deli's body, Chang Deli shook his head slightly, "Father, it's not what you think, son...... My son ...... "I want to talk about "Lin Menjiao" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
