It is a small courtyard facing north and south. The courtyard is boxy, and the distance from the courtyard gate to the main house is seven or eight meters, with a total of seven large rooms. In the middle of the courtyard, there is a ladder sill opposite the three slightly delicate houses are the main house, the main house is a light and two dark structure, the left one is a bedroom, and the right one is a study. Then there are two rooms in the east and west compartments. At this time, Huizhu and Suxin's master and servant were gossiping leisurely in this small courtyard.

"Master, if you don't lie down and rest first, you look a little tired." Su Xin was very distressed when she watched her serve the big master since she was a child. As far as I can see today, the women in the house are not very simple. The master is still young and has not yet grown up, and he is only a personality in the mansion, how can he stand in the face of these women in Baylor Mansion?

"No, I'm fine. Let's wait for the chief manager of the house, Father-in-law Gao De, to come, and then rest. Huizhu leaned on the cushion on the kang and said wryly.

Su Xin thought for a while, and then stopped: "From the perspective of today's situation, let's not talk about anything else, just the performance of the two side Fujin shows that they are very favored, but at the same time, Chang Fujin can also hold the scene, think about it, you can understand that the situation in the house is not good for the master." Master, you still have to get the favor of the fourth master first, and it is imperative to have a child as soon as possible. In this way, you can stand in the house and have a guarantee in the future. ”

Hearing this, Huizhu couldn't help frowning. Although Zhisu Xin is thinking about her, when she thinks of the idea that the women here use their children to protect themselves, she disagrees very much. Since she is married to Yinzhen, she will admit it, and of course she will not be excluded from having children, after all, in the Qing Dynasty three hundred years ago, she can have her own bloodline, which is proof that she lives in this world, and it is also the continuation of her bloodline, but it is definitely not to have children now. She remembered that in ancient times, there was a great chance of dystocia, and now that her body was at most thirteen years old, the risk of childbirth was even greater, so it was better to wait a few years, everything would be as it should.

After thinking about it in his heart, he opened his mouth and replied: "Su Xin, I know that you are for my good, but your current body is less than thirteen, and if you have a body in this deep mansion compound, it is also very dangerous." We still don't know the exact form of the house, no matter how powerful they are, as long as we are careful not to endanger them, we don't have to worry about it. Besides, I don't intend to compete for favor, I think you also know me, I think it's better to go with the flow, take one step at a time. ”

"Master, the slave knows that you are not like the eldest girl and the third girl in the family, you only want a plain life, and you don't like those glory and wealth. But you have entered this Baylor House, and it is impossible to be alone. ”

"Su Xin, I understand what you said, I just want to live a simple life now, and I am very lazy and don't like to be discharged from the hospital, if I go to compete for favor, it is very painful and tiring. Su Xin, my good sister, instead of worrying about things that haven't happened yet, you should help me think about how to tidy up the yard after the people will come over. From now on, it will be our little family. As long as I can have a comfortable little yard and let me do what I like, then everything will be fine. Huizhu stuck out her tongue and said playfully.

Hearing this, Su Xin laughed, but eased some of the frustrated atmosphere.

Just as the two masters and servants were gossiping, the chief administrator of the mansion, Duke Gao De, came with three people.

"The minion Gaode asks Gege to be safe, Gege is auspicious." A man about thirty years old, dressed as a father-in-law, led the person behind him to greet Huizhu.

Huizhu knew that this was the chief manager of the mansion, Gao De's father-in-law. And her position is just Gege, she can't afford such a big gift, so after a half-salute, she personally helped Gao De up, and said: "I'm tired of my father-in-law, Huizhu has just arrived, if there is anything wrong, please ask my father-in-law for more guidance." So saying, he handed over the gold-encrusted ruby snuff box and fifty taels of silver bills that he had prepared in advance. You must know that fifty taels at this time is already a lot, and her monthly money in Baylor Mansion is only twenty taels a month, and twenty taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family of three to live in wealth for half a year.

Gao De postponed for a moment, then took it and put it away, and then said more respectfully: "Gege is too polite, the slave thank you Gege for the reward." When Gege first arrived at Baylor House, there must have been many places that he was not used to, and if there was any need, he would ask someone to send a message to the minions. ”

After speaking, Fu glanced at Huizhu again, and found that Huizhu looked a little tired, so he immediately patted his head and said with a smile: "Look at the slave who is confused, he forgot all the business." The house in Gege's yard or something, Fu Jin had already let people clean up properly, and he sent the people who served Gege. No, the minions have brought the servants to Gege now. ”

After finishing speaking, Gao De pointed to a woman with a wide skeleton of about thirty or so and said, "This is the second-class rough envoy Mama, Mama Zhang." The man is a janitor in the backyard, and then he does some menial work outside your house. He pointed to a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl with an ordinary face and said: "This is Xia Mei, a maid who used to clean in the front yard, her parents are both on errands in the kitchen, and she is a child." Finally, he pointed to a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl and said, "I bought it a year ago, I worked as a messenger in Geng Gege for a month, and then I went to the laundry room, I am very clever, and my name is good, called Yuehe." ”

Then the conversation changed, and he gave Huizhu a thousand calls, and said with a smile: "Gege, since the matter has been completed, the minion will retire first, and Fujin is still waiting for the minion's reply in the main courtyard." Huizhu nodded and smiled in agreement, and personally sent Gao De out of the hospital, thanking him again and again.

Back in the main house, Huizhu sat down on the kang, Yuehe's eyes were quick, and she hurriedly poured a cup of tea from the table, and said with a smile: "Gege, you drink tea." Last day was your first day in the house, and when you came back, you were busy greeting the Fujin people, and I was afraid that you were a little thirsty for water. Huizhu smiled and took the teacup and took a sip, it was really thirst-quenching, and she couldn't help but look at the girl more, a pair of beautiful apricot eyes flashed with smart light, she was indeed a clever person. Then he glanced at it, gave Su Xin who was standing on the side a look, and said lightly: "It seems that what Gao Gonggong said is that this is a clever and sensible person, Su Xin, reward her with that emerald pendant." ”

Su Xin took the pendant angle, handed over the things, and said with a smile: "From now on, you will be the person on the master's side, you are smart and clever, and you can be praised by the master, that is your blessing." But," he said, glanced at Yuehe and the other two, and then changed his words: "The most important thing for us to be slaves is loyalty, and we can only pretend to be the master in our hearts, and we have to think of the master when we do anything." If you do that, Gege will not treat you badly; But if you want to do something to be sorry for the master, the master still has a way to dispose of you! ”

The tail note was abruptly raised, making Mama Zhang, Xia Mei, and Yuehe all feel distracted, and they hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "We will definitely serve our master with all our hearts and souls in the future, and be loyal to our master." ”

Huizhu glanced at Su Xin appreciatively, and said tepidly: "Okay, let's all get up." In fact, in my errand role, I just need to keep my duty. Normally, I don't have much to serve, so when you're done with your work, you're free to pass the time, but it's best to stay in the yard and don't go out and chew on your tongue. As for anything in the future, go to Su Xin first. Suxin, reward each person with a penny. Take them down again, and you'll see what happens. ”

When the three of them heard that there was a tael of silver, they all thanked them happily, saying that Huizhu was kind and considerate to his subordinates. After all, they are only second-class servants in the house, and they only have half a salary every month.

After sending them out, Huizhu lay down on the couch in the bedroom with her clothes and fell asleep unconsciously......
