The woman sneered, but didn't dare to say anything.

"You go down first, you take care of her over there, so that she doesn't run around, and she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing." Mrs. Xiong said, "If she doesn't listen to her orders, it's okay to give her some good taste." ”

After the mother-in-law stepped back, Mrs. Xiong went to the study to discuss with her husband.

At this end, Chu Liangrao had already had dinner, she raised her eyes and looked at the two selected maids, looking at them all with good looks and honest rules. asked the names, one was called Begonia, and the other was called Yingluo, which sounded good, so Chu Liangrao didn't change their names.

Mother Du told them the rules in front of Chu Liangrao.

"Mom, that's all for now." Chu Liangrao said, "I'm a little tired. ”

Hearing this, the two maids hurriedly saluted and retired, and Du's mother stepped forward and asked, "The county lord must have been injured and injured, do you want to ask the doctor to come and see?" ”

"No need." Chu Liangrao shook her head slightly, and said, "You take care of Lilac more, don't say that she is not, she is not easy." ”

Seeing that Chu Liangrao still remembered the cloves, Mother Du couldn't help but ask: "County Lord, if you are reluctant to cloves, if you sign a death deed, it is a good thing to be able to follow the county lord, it is too late for many people in this mansion to be red." ”

"It's already a promise, how can I repent again." Chu Liangrao raised her hand and pressed her eyebrows and said, "Tomorrow, I will clear the people from the palace, find a reliable person and send them back, and let my grandmother 'worry' about it." ”

"Do you want to buy a few more innocent maids?" Du's mother said, "There are not many people who serve around the county lord, and if you want people from other provinces to see it, you will inevitably think about it." ”

Chu Liangrao thought about it, but it was not the right time, so she said perfunctorily: "Let's see it later." ”

As she spoke, Zhu'er brought in today's 'medicine'.

Chu Liangrao didn't answer, and said: "There is no need to fry this 'medicine' in the future." ”

Zhu'er glanced up at Du's mother, and when she saw her gesture to retreat, she stepped back.

Du's mother said: "Don't you lie down and rest first?" ”

"It's fine." Chu Liangrao responded.

I thought it would be good to lie down for a while, but I didn't want to lean on the 'bed' and fell asleep.

Mother Du didn't bother Chu Liangrao, put down the tent, turned off the lights and withdrew.

It was Zhen'er who was keeping vigil today, so Du's mother gave two more words.

"Mom, don't worry." Zhen'er smiled and said, "Slaves and maids have always slept lightly. ”

Nodding, Du's mother went to her house to rest.

As soon as I changed my clothes, someone came to knock on the 'door', and Du's mother asked, "Who?" ”

"Mom." Lilac's voice came from outside the door, "Are you empty now?" ”

Hearing that it was a lilac, Du's mother subconsciously wanted to sneer, but when she thought of the county lord's 'handover' generation, she endured it: "Come in." ”

Lilac entered the house at this time, she buried her head, and she was not as comfortable as before.

"Would you like tea?" Mother Du said, the tea had been poured and handed to the cloves.

Holding the teacup, Lilac hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The slave knows that it is wrong for the slave and the maid to do this, but, mother, the slave and maid lost their mother at a young age, and they were brought up by their father, if they were not cultivated by their father, there would be no slave and maid today." ”

At the beginning of the words, Du's mother knew that Lilac was here to show her determination, and she said: "You have your difficulties, my mother understands, and the county lord also understands." It's just that if you think about it, has the county lord ever hurt you? ”

"There is no self, the county lord treats the slave and maid as kind as a mountain." Lilac said, "The slave maid has thought about it, the Du family hasn't given a letter yet, I'm afraid that I can't look down on the slave and maid, and when the slave and maid leave the house, they can also help the county lord take care of the store, which can be regarded as atonement." ”

It seems that she has really thought about it, Du's mother looked at Lilac and said: "You don't know, now the county lord is sad, and he only thinks about asking for a store, where is the idea of opening a store." ”

"No matter what, it's the county lord's hard work...... Lilac's voice trembled, "it's all the slaves who hurt the county lord." ”

Seeing her like this, Du's mother couldn't help but feel pity, it must be uncomfortable to be caught in the middle, if she really made up her mind to take care of the store, I was afraid that she didn't think about her marriage.

Wouldn't it be a pity that a good marriage is gone?

For a while, Du's mother couldn't help but complain to Zhu Xiucai: "It's been a while since your father came out, and when he has grown, he didn't expect to see what was in front of him, not to mention the delay in your affairs, and also delayed the county lord." ”

"Father did not do the right thing." Lilac sincerely apologized, "But he is also for the good of the slave." ”

Looking at Lilac's sensible appearance, Du's mother felt even more in her heart.

She was still impressed by the scene of the cloves entering the house, but now, she is going to be sent out of the house.

But it's okay, I can let the county lord remember 'sex', presumably the county lord will not think about helping the maids change their slave status in the future, and then the people in the family will be honest.

Lilac is arranged by her father, but the remaining three maids are difficult to say, and now they have not decided to get married, if they regret it at this time, it will be too late.

Thinking about it, Mother Du had a plan in her heart, and decided to talk to Chu Liangrao tomorrow, so that the three maids would be left behind, so that no one would be available.

After talking for a long time, Du's mother's attitude was gentle, and Lilac felt better, so she went back to the room to rest.

Seeing that Ding Lan had already rested, she took a light step and lay down in her clothes, but she was not tired at all.

But Chu Liangrao in the house woke up, covered her somewhat itchy throat with her hands, and shouted, "Lilac, bring a glass of water." ”

The door creaked open, Zhen'er put on her clothes and walked into the house with a candlestick, and saw that Chu Liangrao had already sat up, so she hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it over.

Seeing Zhen'er, Chu Liangrao realized that she had called the wrong person and drank water, and she asked in a trance, "What time is it?" ”

"If you go back to the county lord, when you are a talent." Zhen'er pulled up half of the tent, helped Chu Liangrao re-fold the quilt, and said, "The county lord can sleep for a while, you are bothered during the day, and you should have a good rest at night." ”

Chu Liangrao looked at her and nodded, but she thought of the cloves in her heart, if the cloves kept vigil, she didn't even have to open the tent, she only got in through the cracks, and after she went out, she just had to pull the tent.

But what's the use of thinking about it at this time?

Chu Liangrao pulled the corners of her mouth self-deprecatingly.

"County lord, if you can't sleep, the slave can talk to you for a while." Zhen'er said softly.

Chu Liangrao thought for a while and said, "If you're sleepy, go to sleep." ”

"The slave has been asleep for a while." Jen'er said. Chu Liangrao left Zhen'er to speak. At the beginning, she took a fancy to Zhen'er's ability to speak well, but now Zhen'er has not changed at all, with a clever mouth, it is not over when she catches happy things, Chu Liangrao listened to the excitement, and the depression in her heart was relieved a lot.
