In the low night, snowflakes the size of goose feathers fall silently, and only when you hold your breath and listen carefully can you hear the tiny rustling of snow.

Squeak squeak!

The carriage ran over the fluffy snow, and the curtain of the carriage was opened from time to time, stretching out two white and tender little hands, accompanied by the cheerful voices of Fang Ling and Nannan, who were like larks.

"Brother, look! Look! This snowflake is in the shape of a six-pointed star! ”

"This one of mine is also beautiful...... Ahh ”

……

Outside, there was the sound of the shops on the street, the sound of children running around and jumping, getting closer, closer, passing through the car window, and gradually moving away.

The third lady leaned on Fang Rui's shoulder, holding his hand, her fingers interlocked, her eyebrows and eyes gentle, enjoying the silence at the moment.

Fang Rui looked out of the car window, looking at the dim lights lit up in the heavy snow, and he only felt that everything was so vivid, he couldn't see enough.

Compared with the tranquility here, the great drought and war experienced in the three southern states before are like a world away.

It's just like this—

Fang Fu has arrived.

It is said that it is a Fang Mansion, but in fact, it is just a courtyard with three entrances and three exits, which does not occupy too much land, and does not have the ability to be as luxurious as other big families in the city.

Because Fang Xue said that he can't live with such a few people, it's too big and empty, and it's good if it's smaller.

At this time, the two large vermilion lanterns at the door were quietly blooming with a soft light, reflecting the shadows of the surrounding snow.

"Brother Rui is back?!"

Fang Xue's family was dressed in a snow-white mink fur, with a beautiful face, and greeted him with big and small maids.

Yes, there is no need to hide her appearance like when she was in Changshan County, her face has been restored, and she is in her position and cultivates her qi, which is different from the past, and she has a noble lady's temperament.

"Sir!"

"Miss!"

"Madame!"

……

The big maid and the little maid are the voices of warblers and swallows.

Actually, there aren't too many.

Two big girls: Qingyun and Bai Peony.

Qingyun has fair skin, delicate appearance, just talking about appearance, even better than the third lady, ingenious and ingenious, is a straight character.

This big girl is a bit like Qingwen in "Dream of Red Mansions", but she is very sensible and won't bully the little girl or anything.

Another big girl, Bai Shao, has a gentle personality and is thoughtful, somewhat like the synthesis of Ping'er and Mandarin Duck in "Dream of Red Mansions".

There are also twelve little maids: spring grass, summer flowers, autumn leaves, winter snow, orange wind, purple frost, blue rain, white snow, plum, orchid, spotted bamboo, golden chrysanthemum.

They are all carefully selected by the three ladies from everywhere, all of them are smart and clever, and they are very distracted, and they are extremely outstanding.

"Hachi, Hachi!"

The three big dogs also came over enthusiastically, sticking out their tongues, and spit out a mist of white smoke between their breaths.

They are the old heroes of the Fang family, and they have come all the way from the three states in the south, because of various accidents, in the end, only these three are left, and they also have a deep relationship with the Fang family.

"Oh, it's home!"

"Giggles, rhubarb, big black, big flowers, don't haha me, Ling'er save me!"

……

Fang Ling and Nannan, two little girls, dressed in bulging bags and chubby, ran over like two crooked ducklings, leaving a string of small footprints on the snow.

"Woohoo!"

The three big dogs also joined in the fun, circling around the welcoming pine in the front yard, and the snow was as clean as a canvas.

The laughter and lively atmosphere also spread together.

"Oh, this snow sturgeon, it's really big!"

Fang Rui carried tonight's ingredients, looked at this snow sturgeon that was more than a foot long and frozen, and let out an exclamation.

"Big fish! Big fish! ”

"Brother, do you drink fish soup at night?"

Fang Ling and Nannan, the two little girls, ran back from nowhere, bouncing around Fang Rui for a while.

"Brother Rui, I'll come! I remember this kind of fish, the spines are very well separated, and it is just right to make fish soup. Fang Xue said with a smile.

"Yes, I'll come with Auntie, Brother Rui, you go and rest!" The three ladies are also the way.

Although life is already very good now, with a maid, Fang Xue and Sanniang still retain the habit of cooking by themselves, especially at night, they must do it themselves.

Of course, with the help of the maids, they are not tired, they are very relaxed, and they should move their muscles and bones every day.

And as long as Fang Rui is in the office, there is no official business, and he will definitely come over to have dinner together, and the family will get together, eat, drink, and gossip about the experience of the day.

"No, this fish is too big, you can't get it easy, I'll take it and help you slice it by the way!"

Fang Rui talked and laughed with Fang Xue and the three ladies, and was surrounded by Fang Ling, Nannan, the two little girls, and the big and small maids, and went to the kitchen.

……

The sky was darker, the snow was falling heavier, and the sky was full of snowflakes.

That's when —

Inside the house, smokeless red candles are lit, illuminating everywhere, and several braziers with charcoal fire are burning hot, steaming the house warmly.

On the small stove, the boiled fish soup has been served, in order to prevent it from getting cold, there is a small fire below to continue to simmer, the thick white fish soup is bubbling and tumbling, the snow-white fish meat is up and down in the soup, and there are fresh and tender green wild vegetables to cover it, the layers are clear, and it is mouth-watering.

On the table next to it, a pot of fragrant donkey meat was burning with white smoke, and there were bowls of pearl rice, and the maids had already filled the whole table.

Fang Rui beckoned Fang Xue, Sanniangzi, Fang Ling, and Nan Nan to sit down and eat together.

The slightly spicy and hot fish soup, a few large mouthfuls into the stomach, make the stomach warm, the whole body hot and sweaty, in such a snowy weather, it looks particularly comfortable and comfortable.

"Go, Qingyun, Bai Shao, and the big girl are in charge, and divide the rest of the fish soup. By the way, you don't have to wait here, let's all go to eat, it's a cold day. ”

Fang Rui waved his hand.

Naturally, there are only a small part of such a big fish here, and there are many more left!

"Yes, thank you, sir!"

Qingyun and Bai Shao, the two big girls, bowed and turned around happily.

This kind of snow sturgeon, but it cherishes the best ingredients, and ordinary people can't eat it at all, that is, the big and small maids they follow like this can have a good mouth.

And, to be honest, I was already hungry when I smelled the strong fragrance.

Beside.

"Chirp tweet!"

More than a dozen phoenix swallows were chirping, drinking fish soup on their own plates, and their little heads were almost buried in it.

The three big dogs also sucked the fish soup, and from time to time raised their heads to look this way.

Now, the family is big and the business is big, and Fang Xue's family doesn't care about a little bit of food.

Fang Rui, Fang Xue's family, Sanniangzi, Fang Ling, and Nan Nan gathered around a table, gossiping about their experiences during the day and various trivial things in life.

"Nannan, Ling'er, is there anyone bullying you in the academy?" Fang Rui asked.

"No, they don't dare!" Fang Ling's little head seemed to be buried in the bowl, and he didn't lift it, only hummed and replied.

"Yes, Sister Ling'er is amazing! There are also many people who flatteringly give us snacks and ask us to tell stories. We listened to Brother Are, never ate other people's food, and they took out all kinds of gadgets...... However, Sister Ling'er is wrong, anyway, they don't know ...... "Nan Nan is like a few family treasures, Fang Ling's black history will come as soon as he opens his mouth."

"Don't say it!" Fang Ling hurriedly went to cover her mouth.

"Haha, no wonder, I see they all revolve around you after school." Fang Rui funnily pinched the faces of the two little girls.

"These two little overlords, who dares to mess with them? I know it all at home. Fang Xue shook his head.

"Not Brother Rui yet?"

The third lady covered her mouth and smiled: "...... Because of that incident, Brother Rui directly led someone to copy other people's properties, and adults came to the door with children to apologize...... After that time, I really didn't dare to mess with them again. ”

"The adults in that family are not educated, the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, and there are still people in the city, who reject outsiders, and form gangs and factions......"

Fang Rui thought of that, and he was still a little angry in his heart.

Campus bullying, actually bullying Fang Ling and Nan Nan in his family, it is simply bold!

"They are so rustic, and I haven't heard of the stories told by my brother......"

"yes, they feel stupid!"

Fang Ling and Nan Nan, the two little girls, are a little precocious, and when they get along with those peers, they do feel like they stand out from the crowd.

——This is also the result of walking thousands of miles from Sanzhou in the south to Wuzhong, such a long journey, such a colorful journey, many people have never experienced it in their lives!

……

Inside the house, the charcoal fire was blazing, warm as spring, and the fish soup on the small red clay stove was bubbling and white smoke.

In the gossip of Fang Rui, Fang Xue's, Fang Ling, and Nannan's family, the red candles danced brightly, and the steaming heat escaped outward, blurring the hazy light and shadow on the carved windows, like seeing flowers in the fog.

Outside, it was freezing and dripping into ice.

In the silent night, there was no wind, and the snowflakes fluttered like goose feathers, enveloping Qiongyu, as if stagnant in the sky.

Time just passed slowly.

……

At night, Qingyun and Bai Peony were two big maids' rooms.

Because Fang's mansion is not too big, the maids in the house are basically two people in one room, Qingyun and Bai Shao are no exception, both of them are big maids, and the relationship is good, so they live together.

"Hiccup!"

Qingyun caressed her little belly, her beautiful eyes were looking forward to it, as smart as a deer: "I ate so much tonight, the fish soup is delicious, and the snow sturgeon fish is also delicious." ”

"It's also a generous master, and I'm willing to let us people eat." Bai Peony came over with water.

"The lord is also very good to the lady, but it seems that the lord and the lady are not married, and Miss Nannan is also ......."

"Qingyun, I'm not interested in talking about this."

Bai Shao Zhengse looked at Qingyun and shook his head.

She is extremely measured, knowing that Qingyun said this, in fact, she doesn't have any bad intentions, but there are some things that she can't say.

"Okay, don't talk about that."

Qingyun also reacted, covering her mouth with both hands, and a pair of big black and watery eyes rolled wildly.

Don't look at the three ladies with a gentle temperament, but they are also very skillful, otherwise how can they manage such a big industry? If she hears this, she will definitely be driven to Sihai Tower.

"Let's talk about something else,"

Bai Shaowen smiled gently: "I went back last month and brought back the monthly money I saved, and the family was happy, and the younger brother was sick, and it was also with this money that he was cured...... The neighbors are envious! ”

"That is, we are lucky, the lord, the lady, and the lady are merciful, and allow us who sell ourselves to go back and have a look, and we will also pay a monthly payment...... I knew another woman, who was no worse than me in appearance and temperament, but she sold herself into Beppu and died in vain not long after. ”

She let out a sigh as she said this.

"Yes, our Fangfu is not like Bepfu, there are not so many messy things." Qingyun said proudly.

These things, in their hearts, are the most scaled. The relaxed, harmonious and warm environment of Fangfu can be said to be rare among large households.

"On the side of the main house, women everywhere are rushing to come, relaxed, and the monthly money is high......" Qingyun wrenched his fingers, like a few treasures.

"Then you're going to have to work harder."

Bai Shao quipped: "By the way, Qingyun, have you slept with the master?" That day, I saw that you had served the lord in a bath, and the water was wet all over the ground......"

Even though she is generous and decent, gentle as her, she still has a gossip side in her nature.

"Sister Bai Shao, what are you, what are you talking about?!"

Qingyun was so ashamed that his head was smoking.

However, in the end, he said: "I'm not that kind of person, the lord promised me the status of a concubine, and I agreed!" ”

She said, lifting her chin proudly.

"You!"

Bai Shao smiled and shook his head: "That is, the master is used to you, if it is in Beppu, you can take a look ......"

"Giggles, Sister Bai Shao, don't talk about me, don't you like the master? Well? ”

"I ...... How can I have such a good color as you? No, what's wrong with me? Look at me haha you! ”

The two laughed and blew out the lights.

……

In the other room, Fang Ling and Nan Nan were taken away by Fang Xue and Sanniangzi one by one, Fang Rui stayed alone in the empty room tonight, lying on the bed, silently opening the panel.

[Name: Fang Rui]

[Robbery: 9799]

[Exercises: Self-cultivation (Enlightenment)]

[Realm: Three Grades (Refining Dirt)]

[Skills: Fang's Medical Technique (Perfection), Animal Taming (Xiaocheng) (+), Feng Shui Technique (Xiaocheng) (+), Deadly Knife Technique (Perfection), Swift Step (Perfection), Transfiguration Technique (Xiaocheng) (+), Throwing Yan Thirteen Hands (Dacheng) (+), Xue Family Gun (Not Started) (+), Mountain Splitting Knife Method (Not Started) (+), Divination Arithmetic (Not Started) (+), Stealing (Not Started) (+), Agricultural Economics (Not Started) (+), Carving (Not Started) (+) ......]

[Divine Power: Immortality (Gray)]

……

"For example, many skills such as divination and arithmetic, stealing, agricultural economics, carving, etc., most of them were harvested in that year's rush, and some of them were slowly searched by the three ladies who established an industrial network."

It can be said that the aspect of skills is now quite comprehensive.

"As for the robbery point, it was originally in Eagle's Beak Gorge, and after the ascension, there were still more than 4,000 left; In the year of rushing, I gained more than 4,000 points; When he left the three states in the south and came to Wuzhong Huaiyin Mansion, he calmed down, but it decreased sharply, and there were only 16,700 points in a year. ”

In fact, Fang Rui was not in a hurry to break through.

Because, he found that in the city, the third grade seems to be the peak, and he has not seen it once, and as for the first and second grades, he has never even heard of it.
