The second chapter is to pay homage to the official and choose the maid

General's Palace

Oh no, it's now the Zhenguo General's Mansion, and the door plaque hasn't been replaced yet, because the mansion hasn't had time to clean up, and it looks particularly desolate.

"Father." Two different voices rang out.

Jing Rui saw that it was his children, and he felt tears in his heart, his children were worried that he would greet him at the door.

"Wu'er, Yi'er."

"Father." Jing Wu was also very worried, and when he saw that his father was fine, he completely relieved his heart.

"Come back home, it's so cold outside, what should I do if it's freezing." Father Jing said sharply with a straight face.

Although the tone was harsh, there was concern in the sentence.

Jing Wu smiled, took his younger brother's hand and went back to the house with Jing's father.

Jing Wu grew up in the imperial city when he was a child, and went to the border city with his parents when he was five years old, and his impression of the imperial city has long been forgotten, and Jing Yi was born and raised in the border city.

"Father, mother, when will she come, I miss my mother, I miss the little brother and sister in my mother's womb."

Jing Yi's immature words made Jing's father's face warm, and said: "Your mother came to reunite with us when she gave birth to a younger brother and sister, and we will all live in the imperial city in the future, is Yi'er happy?" ”

"Happy, my sister said that there are a lot of fun and delicious things in the imperial city." Jing Yi smiled and narrowed his eyes, with a longing for those things in his eyes.

"Good." Jing Wu touched his brother's head.

Father Jing looked at his fifteen-year-old daughter, who was actually sixteen years old, and was relieved.

"Wu'er, your mother is not here, and this general's mansion will rely on you first in the future."

Jing Wu nodded, when she entered the imperial city, she should also learn to manage the family house, even if she doesn't learn it now, she will still learn it when she gets married in the future, they used to have a simple population, and she had no place to learn, but now it's different.

"Don't worry, father, I'll study hard."

"Hmm." Father Jing felt most sorry for this daughter, and she never let him worry about it.

Back to the boudoir, Jing Wu looked at this place, this room was personally selected by her, and she felt that the location here was good and the sun was abundant.

Originally, there were still a few subordinates in the general's mansion, all of whom were rewarded by the emperor, and this Jingwu didn't dare to move, and the province let people catch the handle.

After thinking about it, I still called them in, at least to see how their character was.

Hearing the eldest lady of Xinfu call them, they didn't dare to slack off, and immediately passed.

After a while, the number of people will be together.

"I've seen the eldest lady." Speak in unison.

Jing Wu sat on a soft stool, looked at the row of people walking below, and counted, there were seven in total, three women and four men.

Looking at the appearance, he is not the kind of person who will steal and play tricks, and the worries in his heart have been put down.

"What's your name?" Jing Wu didn't want to give them a new name, or the original name.

The one on the far left spoke, and this was a woman, who looked clear-eyed, dressed in green clothes, about the same age as her.

"If Miss Hui is back, the slave's name is Yingzhu."

Then another one spoke, also a woman, dressed in pink, and only listened to her: "The slave maid is called Rui Zhu." ”

Jing Wu, who listened to this, was surprised and asked, "Are you sisters?" ”

The woman in Tsing Yi looked up and replied, "Exactly, the slave maid is the elder sister, and Rui Zhu is the younger sister." ”

Jing Wu observed that their sisters' eyes were upright and looked good, so he planned to accept their sisters as personal maids.

But she didn't show it, and looked at the others.

When the four men saw it, they immediately said one after another: "Little Chen Si." ”

"Little Ma Shanzhong."

"Little Zhao Guang."

"Little Zhu is rich."

Hearing the last name, Jing Wu couldn't help but laugh, his parents wanted to be rich so much that they gave their son such a name.

In the end, there was one left, looking at the woman, Jing Wu frowned, although this woman is not a hateful person, but she is so timid, she can't be liked.

Simply Jing Wu asked her, "What's your name?" ”

The woman was timid and refused to say it, and in the end, Jing Wu wanted to give up, so she said it.

"I ...... My name is Su Ling. ”

Jing Wu raised his eyebrows after hearing this, his expression was bright, and he muttered: "Su Ling? ”

It's a nice name, but she also calls herself "I" and makes her a little disliked, didn't she hear other people call it?

Then he stopped looking at her, turned to the people, and said, "Next, I will arrange for you, and as for those who want to leave, I will give you the deed of sale." ”

Hearing this, she obviously saw that the eyes of several people lit up, but some of them were still very resolute.

What she didn't expect was that Su Ling actually stayed, and in the end, there were only five people left.

They are: Yingzhu, Rui Zhu, Su Ling, Chen Si, Zhao Guang.

As for the others, they had already left with the deed of sale.

Jing Wu first changed the surnames of Chen Si and Zhao Guang, and they will be house slaves in the future, of course, they must be named with the surname of the master's family.

"Jing Si, Jing Guang, you will go to the old master and the young master's courtyard on an errand in the future." Jing Wu thought that there were exactly two of them, one for each person, and he would talk about it when he found someone again.

"Yes." And the two of them took the order and went down.

Jing Wu looked at Yingzhu and Rui Zhu, seeing that they were generous, they looked like they were well-trained, and nodded in his heart.

"Yingzhu and Rui Zhu will be my personal maids in the future, rest assured, as long as you don't make mistakes, I won't punish you."

"Yes." Yingzhu and Rui Zhu knelt down and kowtowed to their master.

Jingwu didn't help them up, this is not a dismount, this is what a slave should do.

In the end, only one Su Ling was left, she looked up timidly, and immediately lowered her head, her hair covered most of her cheeks, so that she couldn't see what she looked like, but she was petite.

Jing Wu glanced at her, she really had a headache, and she didn't know how to arrange her.

"Does Su Ling know how to cook?" Jing Wu asked nonchalantly.

"Yes." The voice is pitiful, if it weren't for her good hearing, I'm afraid she would have thought it was a mosquito calling.

"Then you can go to the kitchen to help later." Jing Wu finally thought of a way to send her away.

After all the dust settled, Jingwu thought about it and called Yingzhu to the front.

"Miss."

"Yingzhu, you go find someone with a better reputation."

"Yes Miss." Yingzhu immediately agreed.

……

When Yingzhu brought the human teeth, Jingwu put down the book in his hand, looked at a group of newly-dressed slaves, and stood up.

The leader of the seller, her name is Aunt Zhang, and she is also a famous tooth woman in the imperial city.

Aunt Zhang rubbed her hands and looked at Jing Wu, who was dressed in plain beauty in front of her, dressed in blue, with hair like a jackdaw, with a cold expression, and walked over, like a fairy person.

"Villain Zhang, I've seen Miss."

"Well, no need to be polite." Jing Wu said lightly.

Aunt Zhang saw that Jing Wu was just looking at it, and she didn't speak, so she stepped forward and introduced: "Miss, my Aunt Zhang has an excellent reputation in the imperial city, and the ones selected are all according to the specifications of the general mansion, you can see if there is anything you are not satisfied with." ”

She first boasted about it, and then gave her the choice, even if she was not satisfied in the future, she couldn't find her, and she was really shrewd.

Jingwu nodded secretly.

She looked at the slaves lined up, and eliminated a few people who looked ill-intentioned, and Aunt Zhang didn't say anything when she looked at it.

However, Aunt Zhang was indeed right, most of the people here were good, nodded with satisfaction, and gave her the money.

"Thank you Miss for appreciating the light, and I hope to cooperate more in the future, this is their deed of sale." Aunt Zhang took the money and smiled.

"Well, Aunt Zhang really has good eyesight and eloquence." Jing Wu took the aisle with a smile.

"Where, it's just a mouthful of food, it's nothing." Although Aunt Zhang was proud when she heard this, she was still humble in her speech.

Jing Wu smiled but did not speak.

After sending Aunt Zhang away, Jing Wu put the deed of sale on the table, looked at the group of people in front of him, and did not let them sign up, and quietly observed them for a while.

There are more than 30 people in total, she invited more maids and wives this time, there are a total of fifteen small maids, she arranged those little maids one by one, looked at those maids and maids, selected good cooking skills to the kitchen, and took care of the rest of the chores, after all, this new house, the house is still relatively desolate.

As for her father and younger brother, she didn't arrange for those maids, and she gave birth to moths.

After the arrangement was completed, Jingwu was tired for a while, thinking that it would be better to invite a housekeeper over, so he instructed Yingzhu to invite Aunt Zhang to come over again.

……

When Aunt Zhang came over again, it had been an hour, and I saw her open the door curtain and come in, the thick cotton clothes wrapped her tightly, and the slightly plump body was even more round, quite rich, and she exhaled white air in her mouth, and she was shivering when she first came in.

Behind him was a man about thirty or forty years old, with a thoughtful appearance, not a sneaky and slippery person, with his head slightly bowed, somewhat elegant.

When he saw Jingwu, he said: "Oh, my young lady, when the villain first left, he still wanted to cooperate with the young lady, just now I heard Miss Yingzhu say that you want a housekeeper, no, the villain brought him, how about you take a look?" Aunt Zhang stretched out her hand and dragged the man over.

The man didn't panic when he saw it, and arched his hand and said, "The villain Yu Huayan has seen Miss." ”

Jing Wu nodded secretly, this person has good etiquette, clear eyebrows, neither humble nor arrogant, he is really a candidate.

But the housekeeper is not so simple, thinking about Jing Wu and saying, "Have you ever been a housekeeper?" ”

If he did, she wouldn't dare to ask for it again, saving him from the old and causing trouble to the general's mansion.

Yu Huayan seemed to see through her thoughts, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The villain has only been the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and has no master." ”

Jing Wu nodded with satisfaction and said, "From today onwards, you will be the housekeeper of the General's Mansion." ”

Yu Huayan wanted to kneel.

"Steward Yu, don't be polite."

Yu Huayan knew that he was satisfied with this young lady, and breathed a sigh of relief, he knew a lot of people, and he had never seen a boudoir lady with such a demeanor, and it was indeed a general.

"Miss." Steward Yu bowed his head.

Jing Wu turned to look at Aunt Zhang, and motioned for Yingzhu to give her the money, this housekeeper has a lot more money than those maids, after all, this is a technician.

Aunt Zhang knew that this business was a certainty when she had appreciation in Jing Wu's eyes, but she was not surprised, and she smiled like a flower on her face when she took the heavy silver.

"Thank you, Miss."
