Chapter 48: Inquiry
Lane Zhuyuan arranged for the servants and maids who were responsible for various chores, most of whom were sent from other courtyards. As striking and nimble as she had seen it at first sight, she took the roster to confirm the scope of responsibilities of each person, so as not to make mistakes later. Xia Zhi read the medical book for a while, and went downstairs to exercise his muscles and bones boredly.
The small bamboo forest next to the courtyard wall is still lush in autumn, but there are also a lot of yellow leaves, and the wind blows and squeezes into a pile. Xia Zhi got playful and bent down to pick up a few fallen leaves to play with. Suddenly, a little maid came out of the bamboo forest next to her, still holding a broom in her hand, and saw Xia Zhi loitering on the side, and kindly reminded, [Don't be lazy and fun, be careful of being seen by Sister Lulan that you are good-looking! γ
Is this mistaking her for the new maid? Xia Zhi looked at his dress, well, it was a little lighter, should he pay attention to it in the future. Since it was misunderstood, it would be good to take the opportunity to find out the details of Lu Lan, Xia Zhi thought so, did not directly pierce it, and asked, [Why is Lu Lan very powerful?] γ
[I don't know if it's powerful, it's true to hold chicken feathers as an arrow. You don't know, her posture looks like the leader of the bamboo garden, but she is just a personal maid, and her arrogant appearance is really dislikeable. As if she had found an outlet for catharsis, the little maid poured beans and said.
[Ah, I see. So what did she do before? Why was he suddenly dispatched? Summer Solstice continues to inquire.
[Speaking of this, it's interesting.] I heard that Lu Lan was serving in the courtyard of the eldest young master, and she was originally a low-level maid who was not even qualified to enter the house, and she wanted to fly on the branches because she had a bit of a posture. But it was soon recognized by Mrs., and a few days ago it was rumored that she was going to be sent out, who knows what shit luck she had, and she became the personal maid of the summer solstice girl when she turned her feet. The little maid said indignantly, [But it may not be a good thing to follow that summer solstice girl, I heard that Mrs. is very targeted at her, maybe she will be kicked out together one day. γ
Yo, how did this topic turn to me again, but people, they are always more interested in themselves than others. Xia Zhi nodded and echoed the little maid, waiting for an opportunity to ask, [Then why is the summer solstice girl so unwelcome? γ
[Who's to say it's not.] Aren't the people who came out of that kind of place all rely on the likes of Young Master Huan, I heard that they dressed up on the first day, and they were taught a hard lesson by Mrs. If Young Master Huan doesn't like her one day, it may be even worse than Lu Lan at that time. The little maid made a bold guess.
[Ah, is that so?] It turns out that she is such an image of a vase in other people's gossip and chatter, but it doesn't seem to be much different, Xia Zhi laughs at herself.
The little maid was about to say something, but Lu Lan suddenly appeared in the sight of the two, probably a little surprised to see Xia Zhi and the little maid chatting, and walked over quickly. The little maid stuck out her tongue at Xia Solstice with a bad look, [It's over, it's on the muzzle.] γ
Lu Lan came to her and said with a smile, [Summer Solstice girl, why didn't you say anything about why you came out, it made me easy to find. Young Master Huan is here, looking for you. γ
The little maid next to her was still planning to unite with Xia Zhi, but she never expected that the person who had said bad things for a long time would stand in front of her, and now she didn't need Lu Lan to go out, but she was in trouble. The more the little maid thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to move.
[I was bored from reading a book and walked around, and I happened to meet this little girl and chatted casually. By the way, Chen Huan...... What is Young Master Huan doing here? The summer solstice changed the subject and sent her away, and the little maid got the pardon and ran away, as if there was a tiger chasing her behind.
[Young Master Huan didn't say anything, just asked the summer solstice girl where you are, and I found it. Let's go, don't let Young Master Huan wait for a long time. Lu Lan urged, this posture is more like Chen Huan's maid.
After listening to the little maid's evaluation of Lu Lan just now, combined with the current attitude, it is really not a pure chasing after the wind? However, as a maid, if she can really get on the throne, and she is on the top under Mrs. Chen's nose, she definitely has two brushes, and she is waiting to watch the play on the sidelines.
On the one hand, Xia Zhi, who was mind-blowing, hurried back to the wooden building with Lu Lan. Chen Huan was leisurely drinking tea and teasing birds in the living room, not like he was in a hurry.
Lu Lan spoke up first, [Young Master Huan, I brought the summer solstice girl. γ
This tone made Xia Zhi inexplicably familiar, and it seemed that he could see the shadow of the on Lu Lan.
Chen Huan saw Xia Solstice coming in, and a smile hooked up on the corner of his mouth and stood up, [Xia Solstice, where have you been naughty, I've been waiting for you for a long time. γ
Amoy...... Naughty? Is this what happened? Xia Zhi couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and the envious eyes of Lu Lan next to him instantly became clear. By the way, the whole Langzhuyuan people were arranged by Mrs. Chen, who knows how many active eyeliners there are, so they act in a full set, so as not to wear goofs. [People will be bored if they stay in the room alone, so they went out for a spin, and it was not a coincidence that Young Master Huan would come. γ
Chen Huan's reaction was much calmer, and he walked over and picked off the small fallen leaves on the head of the summer solstice, with a gentle voice like water, [A distinguished guest has come to the door and wants to take you to attend. γ
γDistinguished guest? The summer solstice tilts his head slightly, doing innocent.
Rao is Chen Huan has never seen such a clumsy performance, and he couldn't help but tap her head with a fan, [It's a cooperative merchant in the Chen family's business, and my father has already set up a banquet for them to catch the wind. γ
Xia Zhi rubbed his head, obviously he was so in cooperation with his performance, and he actually got a knock on the head, [Okay, then you wait for me to change my clothes, I was recognized as my own by a little maid just now......]
[Haha......] Chen Huan laughed, and saw Xia Zhi puff out his mouth angrily and hurriedly remedied, [This doesn't mean that you are approachable. Later, you can wear as much makeup as you like, so that you are not afraid of being mistaken. γ
Xia Solstice stretched out his hand, [Where's the silver? Young Master Huan, don't talk about it. Even if she had spare money, she wouldn't spend it on these things.
Chen Huan happily took out a silver ticket and put it in her hand, [If you like it, you can buy it casually, and if it's not enough, let the shopkeeper record it in the account, I'll go back and make up for it, okay?" γ
Xia Zhi smiled and looked at the one hundred taels of silver tickets that were easily in his hand, [Okay, then I'll go upstairs and prepare, you wait for me!] γ
[Well, there's no hurry. Chen Huan watched Xia Shangshang upstairs with a doting face.
If this play can reach Mrs. Chen, it is estimated that the effect will be good. Although she hasn't figured out what Chen Huan's purpose is, it is not bad for her to have money easily, a win-win situation.
