Chapter 488: Preparation before the round house

Yitong laughed and said: "There is nothing to do, I just want to ask the lady whether she is willing to stay in the garden to be this grandmother, or is she willing to follow the master to Qingzhou?" One to two months back and forth, of course, there are some bumps and hardships on the road, and the diet is not as good as at home. The day of departure is tomorrow, and if the lady wants to go, she must prepare early. ”

"Do I still have the right to choose whether to follow or not to follow?" He Angelica couldn't help but be surprised, thought for a while and asked, "Did the Seventh Master ask you to ask my opinion?" ”

Yitong put down the tea bowl and said earnestly: "Son-in-law is out of the house, we have things that are never taken care of, think about it, lady, it is most appropriate for you to follow." If you are willing to go with you, I will recommend you to my son, and he will agree to it. ”

He Angelica looked at the account books and other things inside the cardboard box, and asked with a smile: "Didn't these all run into the hands of the silk girl, you snatched them from others like this, doesn't it matter, will you offend people?" ”

Yitong spread his hands: "What Childe ordered, I just did it, after Childe recovered from his illness this time, many things could not be done, this is something that everyone knows." Besides, Miss Qing said in public that the woman seemed to have purchased and stored the baby in the cellar, whether she recognized it or not, we all gave up seven or eight crying children, and now they are all kept in the garden, waiting for the government to deal with them. ”

He Angelica asked Yitong about Meng Xuan's fourth uncle again, and his memory was not erased like Qing'er Liusui, but he hadn't seen Meng Xi at all in recent years, and only saw his fourth uncle once when Meng Xuan was a child, and she was a little disappointed after hearing it. After a few words, she wrote a letter Jane, tied it around the neck of the little white wolf, and asked it to be sent to Lu Jiangbei's study in Mocha Villa. The little white wolf followed him from Luo's house to Mocha Villa, and Lu Jiangbei tamed it with a new method of factory guarding, and now he will send a letter to him in a single line.

After lunch, two decently dressed mothers-in-law came to say hello, He Angelica simply communicated a few words, and they all heard Yangzhou accents, and when they asked, they knew that they were the golden abacus of a wealthy local family, newly hired into the garden, specially used to listen to her local aunt.

She had also heard the name of "Golden Abacus", and she wanted to hire them but couldn't get in touch with them, but now she lives in a garden. She felt that it was a waste of talent to let these two people manage the accounts in Qingyuan, and she tried to "poach", first inquired about the benefits of Qingyuan and hired them, and persuaded them to consider changing to a better place with more room for development. She knew that Qing'er had been busy expanding her business recently, and she was very short of people in her hands, and there was a famine in accounting.

After the two mothers-in-law understood He Angelica's meaning, they were stunned for a moment, and then one nodded smartly and smiled: "The left and right are for the lady, don't say that it is the account room of the big deal, even if the water is handed and the floor is swept, we will gladly accept it, but I don't know which restaurant or shop the deal is in Yangzhou City." ”

"Yihongyuan." He Danggui thought to herself that anyway, they would have to know sooner or later, and it would be better to confess and communicate early, she introduced, "Yihong Courtyard is our manpower training base, and when we are familiar with a set of process rules with a fixed number, it may take ten days or more than a month, at most half a year, and when a few shops in Nancheng are on the track, we will let the two of you go over to serve." The expected wages and benefits, the two of them can put forward as much as possible, or the whole family to work together, or to find a decent job for the children, or to provide food, lodging, medical subsidies, etc., there is room for negotiation, we are very thirsty. ”

Halfway through her words, the second mother-in-law suddenly had a nervous look on her face, and she thought that the two of them were dissatisfied with Yihong Courtyard. When the words ended, there was a sudden laughter behind her, she looked back, it turned out that her good thing of "poaching" was just hit by Meng Xuan, and then looked back at the two mothers-in-law, who had already gone out of the building.

She didn't feel embarrassed at all, and got up as usual to give Meng Xuan a seat, hand over tea, and read snacks. The so-called concubine means that the husband sits and you stands, the husband eats and you watch, and the husband lies and you accompany.

Meng Xuan picked out a piece of hazelnut cake and threw it in his mouth, and asked with a smile: "Among the expected benefits, how can it also include 'getting a decent job for your children to clear the garden', this is to seek talents for your Yihong Academy, how can the benefits come out of Qingyuan?" Is this considered the abuse of power for personal gain? ”

He Danggui thought that Meng Xuan's smile was a real laugh at the beginning, and thought that he, a big hero who stepped on mountains and rivers, would ignore her little actions. But looking at the curvature of his thin lips, the more I looked, the more I felt that he was sneering, or rather, a kind of skin smile with a little frost. This was the first time she had seen him laugh like this, and she looked at it for a while before she explained: "Since the concubine has married into Mengmen, the property under her name has been automatically transferred to you from the official register, of course, there is no distinction between each other, and it is not too much to let Qingyuan come out with this idea." ”

Meng Xuan looked up at her, still smiling: "Since there is no distinction between each other, how can 'Mengmen' still be 'you here'?" ”

He's here to find fault? He Angelica didn't answer and asked: "I heard that the master will go out tomorrow?" Let's warm the pot at night, do you invite the neighbor's guests to the next post? By the way, it's cold in the north at this time, so you need to prepare two more winter clothes and replace them. ”

The words of the two were a bit unrelated, Meng Xuan said: "I passed through your yard just now, and I saw the flowers blooming very lively, the early spring in the south is so changeable, a new scene every night." ”

"Then, will you continue to sit? Busy tonight, right? He Angelica said to herself, "I heard that there are eight kinds of wine to be drunk in the warm pot before the journey, which means that the road leads in all directions, and I don't know if there are so many kinds of wine in our family." She deliberately emphasized that she had Qingyuan in charge.

After thinking about it last night, she is already planning to settle down here, no matter how many people around her come and go, after all, she is the one who wants to guard herself to the ground, and other people, when they meet, no matter how vigorous they are, there is also a time to pat their butts and leave. In this way, she really accepted the fact that Meng Xuan was replaced and was not familiar with her, and she was not lonely and sad at all.

"I'm afraid you'll be lonely in Qingyuan," Meng Xuan said with a smile, "I want my brother to take you back with me when I return to Beijing, I don't know what you mean, if you want to go, I'll leave a letter to my eldest brother." I heard that they were tripped up in the field, and I have to leave on time tomorrow, and I will pass by, so I can't introduce you. ”

He Angelica replied with his hands in his hands: "The concubine is married, of course, I want to rush to Mengfu to kowtow to my mother-in-law, but I am afraid that I have little to learn the rules, and I will make my mother-in-law angry as soon as I get there, so if the lord asks me to choose by myself, I think Qingyuan is more suitable for the daughter of a small family like me, that is, to go back to Beijing, I have to learn the rules for three years first, and I dare to pretend to be a lady again." ”

"Then you're free."

Meng Xuan didn't smile the whole time, until He Angelica sent him out of Shui Qianju step by step, and waved a handkerchief at his back three times, and then went back to the building and wondered, with the same body and the same soul, is the difference really so big. This Meng Xuan in the parallel space, she can't figure it out at all, sometimes she hands over the power of the family to her very "suspicious people don't need to be suspicious", and sometimes she cares about some of her small "personnel transfers" initiatives, sometimes she wants to introduce her to his brother, and sometimes asks her if she wants to go back to the Meng family's base camp to visit.

However, I always felt that he had omitted something important and had not said anything. What is it?

The micro moon is transparent and the curtain is clear, and the fluorescence is blue; Luo Xuan hangs the mist, and the light wind rings.

After the hour of holding the lamp, He Angelica threw away the few account books in his hand, manicured his nails in front of the double-knotted lamp, applied Kodan, and then got into the bathing bucket in the shower room for more than an hour, soaking himself in pink and fragrant. She also used a double-layer cage drawer on a small wind stove rack, poured half a bottle of fruit tea dew mixed with lemongrass clear oil, and fumigated a long green silk, which steamed for half an hour. During the whole process, she plucked up her courage for a while, and then vented her anger on herself, but she still didn't make up her mind.

Yesterday, after Qing'er's loving reminder (of course, she herself has always been very numerous), if you want to cure that disease, tonight is the deadline. She is a married woman, and her husband is the only candidate. But why did she not get into that state after a whole day of psychological preparation and a few hours of brewing boudoir love?

Feeling so worried, she suddenly had the state before falling asleep. After yawning a few times, she suddenly crawled like a soft snake on the foot of the chaise longue, trying to climb up, but she couldn't succeed after climbing twice. What's going on?

She yawned loudly, feeling that there was something foreign in the back of her head, and when she turned her head, she was startled, because what came into view was Guan Mo's evil and villainous face! But the yawn still couldn't be recovered, and he sprayed Guan Mo's neckline in one go, making him tremble so much. Then, with a grin, he grinned and grabbed her ankle with one hand, supported the back of her neck with the other, brushed off a brocade quilt, hugged the couch and got on the bed, kicked off the two boots with "dong, dong", knelt on the side of her legs with his knees apart, supported his hands on her pillow, and hung the whole person above.

"You dare to be rude to me, I have a way to make you die a hundred times." He Angelica yawned to warn him, and at the same time, realized that he had been drugged or something, and some special "ingredients" were added to it. The "material" is very similar to the yawning that made Mrs. Luo recruit back then, people are not too sleepy, but they just yawn more than once. Why does Guan Mo also use these indiscriminate things, doesn't he have enough martial arts to bully others? Moreover, how did he get into Qingyuan? Haven't you already reinforced several guards?

Guan Mo sniffed deeply at her temples, and said intoxicatedly, "Let me die a hundred times?" How about wanting to die? Beauty, have you been looking forward to this day for a long time? His lips were on her worried eyelids, almost about to be pasted, but they didn't touch each other, and his tone was still full of affection, "Good sister, you said that you hate me in your heart, do you blame me every time I go to Luofu for a private meeting, I find Shuqin's cheap maid, but let you keep the empty boudoir?" ”

"You go down and talk, go down immediately." He Angelica was drugged and took away his strength, and he was weak at the beginning, so he had to close his eyes and not look at his red lips, which were about to drip blood, and sighed and said, "This time, I am defeated by you, what do you want to do if you want money or officials, I will sign the deed and help you do it according to your fingerprint." But if you dare to move half a finger of me, I am afraid that you will not be able to bear my crazy revenge in the future. ”

Guan Mo smiled heartily, pinched a handful of her half-dried black hair with fragrant sleeves, and rubbed and gnawed on her lips ambiguously, as if to imply that he was about to treat her like this, and said in a hoarse and ambiguous voice: "I'm curious, how can a stubborn person like my sister beg for mercy when she can't bear it in bed?" He used the piece of hair that had been held between his lips to sweep the pair of collarbones above her cardigan, as if he were drawing a picture of a beautiful woman's new bath with a brush.

"Aren't I begging Your Excellency for mercy," He Angelica had already expected the worst outcome, but his heart calmed down, and he was not shocked or annoyed, and negotiated with him with a yawn, "I heard from my uncle that there was an accident in your weaving workshop, and if you don't get it right, you will lose that precious imperial mission." Why don't you do this, I'll fill in the hole for you, and you can let me go, okay? You don't suffer at all. ”

"Why did you beg for mercy from Meng Xuan?" Guan Mo was very dissatisfied with her uncooperative attitude, held his fingers tightly, and asked, "Do it for me once, and then I'll consider your proposal - call it to me, good sister, I like to hear your screams." ”
