Chapter 15: You Don't Want?
Lan Xiaoyou saw Lirui's stunned expression, although she didn't know what she was thinking, but Lan Xiaoyou didn't want this girl to follow her anymore.
"Lirui", Lan Xiaoyou said, "The fourth sister is likely to marry into the eldest princess's mansion and become the wife of the marquis, and her status will be improved......"
Rirui blinked her eyes suspiciously, waiting for Lan Xiaoyou to continue.
"Ximei next to the fourth sister is not young, and she will definitely marry before the fourth sister gets married. There are almost no second-class maids under her. Why don't you go to her side and be a first-class maid and go to the Hou Mansion with the fourth sister. How is it? ”
Lirui's eyes widened, Lan Xiaoyu's words she understood, let her be Lan Xiaoyu's first-class girl to marry, which is equivalent to being a room and aunt for the future fourth aunt...... It's a shortcut to becoming a master. If you don't want to be an aunt, it's really not much. Naturally, Lirui also wants to turn over and be the master. However, after serving Lan Xiaoyu and understanding her temperament, Rirui put away this heart. However, unexpectedly, Lan Xiaoyou suddenly took a piece of pie and smashed her!
"What? Don't want to? Lan Xiaoyou asked, "Since you don't want to, forget it." ”
Lirui fell to her knees all of a sudden: "The slave and maid are all up to the third lady." ”
"Get up." Lan Xiaoyou called out to Lirui lightly, "I can't give you directly to the fourth sister." In this way, I will tell my mother that you will stay in your mother's yard for a while, and then your mother will give you to the fourth sister. In this way, you are also a little higher than other maids in terms of status. ”
"Thank you, Miss Three, for your consideration of the slave." Lirui was grateful, she really felt that the third lady was a good person, and the look in her eyes just now must have been wrong.
Lan Xiaoyu came back after about a stick of incense, her eyebrows were full of joy, thinking that the eldest princess was very satisfied with her. Lan Xiaoyu didn't go to play checkers again after returning to the flower hall, he sat aside alone, laughing from time to time, and was simply carried away.
Lan Xiaoyou didn't bother to remind Lan Xiaoyu, and put all his energy on greeting the nobles, this is not an easy job, as the host, to deal with all kinds of emergencies, to meet the different requirements of the guests, although there are maids to help, Lan Xiaoyou is also tired. It wasn't until everyone was sent away that Lan Xiaoyou breathed a sigh of relief.
Because they were too tired, the Lan family did not get together at night, and went back to their own yards to have dinner and then went to bed. Marquis Lan did not go to the courtyard of his aunts, but rested in Mrs. Lan's main courtyard. Since Lan Xiaoyou was born, except for the first and fifteenth days of the new year, at other times of every month, Lan Hou Ye has rested at his aunt and Tongfang. This time, because he wanted to understand the communication with the eldest princess, Marquis Lan rested in the main room.
"What did the eldest princess say?" Lan Hou Ye took off his coat under the service of Mrs. Lan, sat on the head of the bed, put his feet into the wooden basin, and a maid was hanging her head to wash and massage Lan Hou Ye's feet.
"The eldest princess is very satisfied with the four girls." Madame Lan said that all her jewelry had been removed, and her long black hair hung down, taking advantage of that well-maintained face, giving people the feeling that the charm was still there.
"But the eldest princess can't decide yet, she has to see it with her own eyes." Mrs. Lan walked up to Marquis Lan and sat down, "The eldest princess asked me to go to Yunyin Temple to burn incense on the first day of the new year next month, and asked me to bring the four girls with me." ”
"I think there should be a good chance of coming." Lan Hou said, "The appearance of the four girls follows her aunt, and the Marquis of Jin Chang should be satisfied." ”
Mrs. Lan's eyes darkened, and her heart was extremely uncomfortable, and Marquis Lan's words reminded her of the days when Aunt Li was a pet after she entered the mansion.
"You've raised a few girls well, and you're thinking about them. The fourth girl is blessed to have a mother like you. Lan Hou Ye gave Mrs. Lan a sweet date and praised it.
Mrs. Lan smiled, yes, the four girls are indeed blessed, not every woman has the luck to marry a heavenly eunuch.
"After all, the four girls have called my mother for so many years." Mrs. Lan said, "Not only the four girls, but when the fifth and sixth girls grow up, I will try my best to help them find good families." ”
Marquis Lan was very satisfied with Mrs. Lan's attitude: "When the time comes, you will bring the third girl, the fifth girl and the sixth girl to the temple, so that they can also relax." ”
Madame Lan was worried: "This ...... What if Jin Changhou has a crush on three girls? ”
Lan Hou Ye was not worried at all: "Although the third girl is very good, her appearance is not as good as the fourth girl." Since Jin Changhou likes roles, why did he give up the four girls and fall in love with the three girls? ”
Mrs. Lan secretly gritted her silver teeth, yes, she is not as good-looking as Aunt Li, and her daughter is not as good as the four girls. Hmph, men are so. It's still the vision of the three princes.
Marquis Lan was pressed comfortably by the maid's foot massage, and couldn't help humming comfortably, and said to Mrs. Lan: "This maid's foot washing skills are good, how did you cultivate it?" ”
Mrs. Lan said: "I didn't cultivate it, it was given to me by the third girl." The three girls trained a group of foot-washing maids, and this one learned quickly, so he gave it to me for experience first. If you think it's good, take this girl away. Anyway, after a while, the three girls will train the foot-washing girls, and send one to each yard. ”
"The third girl does have the ability, other people don't read like her, she can always see useful things from books." Lan Hou Ye was very satisfied with his daughter-in-law, "This foot washing can also be seen from the book?" ”
Mrs. Lan said: "Yes, the third girl said that she saw it in an ancient book, and this is not called foot washing, it is called a foot bath." You feel comfortable because this girl helps you massage several important acupuncture points on the soles of your feet, making you feel relaxed. It is said that massaging acupuncture points in this way for a long time can strengthen the body. ”
"What are the acupuncture points on the soles of the feet that are related to the strength of the body?" Lan Hou Ye didn't believe it very much.
Mrs. Lan popularized the knowledge she heard from her daughter to Marquis Lan: "It's a big deal. Like the Yongquan acupoint on the sole of the foot, it is related to the kidneys, and it is the first acupoint of the kidney meridian, and regular massage of this acupoint can make people have enough kidney essence, full of energy, and avoid all diseases. Massage Fenglong acupoint can dispel dampness and phlegm, and long-term insistence on massage can drain the turbidity and dampness on the spleen and stomach. Rubbing the Lao Gong acupoint has the effect of clearing the heart and reassuring the mind, and you can sleep well at night......"
Marquis Lan said with interest: "It turns out that there is such a great knowledge on his feet. By the way, you ask the three girls to prepare one more good craft, I can be useful. ”
Mrs. Lan was puzzled: "Who does Master Hou want to give people to?" ”
Lan Hou Ye pointed upward: "Of course it's the emperor." However, it was not sent by the Hou Mansion, but by the three princes. ”
