You don't have to do anything to sit down in the house, you have to wait a while.

Taking advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention, Wang Shu carefully opened the thing he was holding in his hand. A stack of silver tickets, fifty-two and a dozen. There was also a piece of paper in it: "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely save you back." ”

There was a sound of footsteps in her ears, Wang Shu's heart tightened, and she stuffed the thing back into her sleeve.

When I looked up, I saw a woman in her thirties leading several people into the house. first glanced at Wang Shu quickly, then turned around and whispered a few words to the maid behind him.

After a while, the subordinates rushed in with their washing things, and the posture was to refresh. In ancient times, rouge gouache did not last very well, and the clothes were worn thickly, and the first-class sweat took on makeup. No matter how good Ren Wangshu's foundation is, he is a little embarrassed to look at.

Wang Shu is rotten anyway, she has already reached this point, and she is too lazy to struggle anymore.

With a calm mind, Wang Shu found that the subordinates of this family were very standard. The movements were gentle and soothing, and after freshening up, Wang Shu's spirit was much better. During this process, the people in the courtyard did not make a sound at all.

And when Wang Shu was all cleaned up, the woman and a few maids respectfully saluted Wang Shu.

Wang Shu was a little confused by this battle, but she still called out politely.

"Please master Zi'an," the woman at the head stepped forward and said, "The slave's surname is Jiang, and she is the housekeeper of Qinghui Garden." The master can call the slave Jiang Mama. If there is anything in the future, I will tell the slave and maid to do it. These two are lily of the valley and peony, who are responsible for serving the master's living and serving the first-class maids in the house. The first four are rough girls, responsible for sprinkling and sweeping the yard. There are also four rough envoys outside, and when the master is empty, he will call him over to meet the master. ”

The woman's voice was clear and deep, and she spoke slowly and clearly.

After speaking, several maids behind her curtsied their knees and saluted softly.

Wang Shu blinked, there was no fluctuation on his face, but his heart thumped violently, and he suddenly had a strange premonition.

Chapter VII

The cool breeze in Qinghui Garden, and the sun outside is just right, which makes people's eyes dizzy.

The closer we get to May, the hotter the weather gets in the northwest. The light shone on the cyan glazed tiles, stirring up the light of broken gold.

Through the screen, dappled light poured in. Outside, lush vegetation shades the sky and the sun, shielding out the gradually thickening heat. It stands to reason that with so many plants and trees in a huge yard, there should be noisy cicadas. The yard was stunned and only heard the chirping of birds, but not the annoying chirping of cicadas.

The wind penetrates through the doors and windows, bringing a hint of coolness. Blowing makes people drowsy.

Wang Shu straightened her waist and sat down, and with a wave of her hand, Mama Jiang rushed in with the maids who were eating.

"The master has been tired all the way, I'm afraid I'm tired." Mama Jiang instructed the maids to put the food on the table, and brought a cup of tea to Wang Shu's hand, saying, "Let's use some food pads to pad my stomach first." Mama Yuan happens to be out of the house today, and it will take some time to return home. I'm afraid that there are still things to explain later, and the master can have lunch and take a nap. ”

"Mama Yuan is the housekeeper and the old man who serves beside the master." Time was in a hurry, and Mama Jiang only explained, "Now I am presiding over the affairs of the house here." ”

Wang Shu's eyelids slowly turned, and she lifted her eyelids. Beneath the thick eyelashes are a pair of amber clear eyes.

Mama Jiang looked at the new master, and the eagerness on her face never stopped. The new master is good-looking, and it is always a good thing for them to rely on the master to live.

The room was spacious, with gauze tents hanging from all sides. The huge windows opened from the inside, illuminating the room. There was no red paper on the windows, and the house was quite tidy. Taking a concubine is not like marrying a wife, so naturally there are not so many complicated procedures.

But just at a glance, you can see the wealth of this family.

The furnishings in the house are not full, and the layout is also loose, which is extremely elegant. A brick red carpet with Persian lotus patterns was laid on the ground, and the feet fell silently on it. The pear blossom wood is made of furniture, and the carving is excellent. The hollow carvings on the roof cover are in the same color as the furniture, and in the center of the hall is a three-legged gilt five-bat incense burner, which is curling with green smoke.

A bronze mirror polished very clearly, a dresser with mahogany, and two standing mahogany cabinets next to it. The huge vase is symmetrical on the left and right, and several pear blossoms are inserted respectively, which looks light and pleasant.

"I can save it." When she first arrived, she nodded her head to indicate that she understood, and then got up and went to sit down at the table.

He has a quiet temperament and can listen to persuasion. Mama Jiang nodded again in her heart.

There were four or five kinds of food on the table, each of which was small in size and very delicately made. will be good enough for one person to eat. Wang Shu only used a bowl of millet porridge in the morning, and she was already hungry. With the mentality that what has come is safe, fill your stomach first.

Mama Jiang explained a few words to the girls, and then retired and went out from the door.

I have to say that the chef skills of this house are really superb. A family as rich as the Wang family, Wang Chengjin has never been short of Wang Shu's food and clothing since he was a child. She didn't know how many delicacies she had tasted, but it was the first time she had eaten such a good food. Obviously, it looks ordinary, but it's very mouthy.

After eating in one go, Wang Shu felt the support after putting down the dishes and chopsticks.

Peony, who was waiting silently on the side, intimately took the tea and came to Wang Shu's mouth.

Wang Shu glanced at her and took a sip. rinsed his mouth, and spit out the spittoon held by the maid next to him.

This hierarchical rule makes people's hearts come up. Peony noticed that Wang Shu was awkward, waved his hand to signal everyone to retreat, and said: "If the master feels that he is supportive, why don't you get up and walk around." ”

When she was washing, Peony had already thoughtfully picked off the things that were full of tinkling in her head. The hair is combed in a crisp bun, which is much easier to move around. Wang Shu thought about it, and simply got up and walked a few laps.

Qinghui Garden is not small, and the house where Wang Shu is located is to the east. Behind the window is a small garden full of pear blossom trees. This season is just in time for the pear blossoms to bloom, and the pear blossoms are dazzling all over the yard. When the wind blows, the fluttering petals fall like rain, and the nose is full of fragrance.

She walked around a few times, sweating a little, and went back inside.

After waiting for a while, Mama Jiang came from the east side of the cloister again.

She walked fast, followed by a woman with a long face.

The woman was a little shorter than Mama Jiang, wearing an emerald green curved skirt, and her black hair was combed in a bun. There is an old silver hairpin with the thickness of a child's finger obliquely, which looks very majestic. Earrings opal, do not sway between actions, and the rules are extremely strict.

Mama Jiang led people over, but she didn't go directly into the house. beckoned, and called a teenage girl to whisper a few words. Let the woman be led to the ear room to drink tea, and then turn and go into the inner room.

As soon as he came in, he instructed Peony Lily of the Valley to sort out Wang Shu's clothes, and saw that Wang Shu's lips were a little pale and her face was dyed with fine sweat. Then he called someone in and waited for Wang Shu to freshen up a little. made up the rouge, and personally put some lipstick on Wang Shu.

When the people are cleaned up, they will lead her to the Siyi Courtyard.

"The master arrived at the Siyi Courtyard for a while, and the one who asked what would reply would not talk if he didn't ask."

Time is in a hurry, and some things are inarticulate. Mama Jiang followed in small steps and walked beside Wang Shu. whispered, "The master at the end of the Siyi Courtyard has a noble status, and he has always been a well-behaved and temperamental, so the master only entered the mansion, and his attitude is respectful." Mama Yuan is not in the house now, and if something happens, she has nowhere to open her mouth. ”

The second monk Wang Shu was puzzled, and when he heard this, he felt a sigh in his heart.

She stepped out on one leg and looked up to see the woman already waiting outside. The woman's hands were folded on her lower abdomen, and although there was a slight smile on her face, she did not look very good. I didn't know why, and turned my head to look at Mama Jiang.

Mama Jiang lowered her head and took a few steps back.

Wang Shu heard someone outside say, "Come with me." He turned his head and glanced at Mama Jiang again. Mama Jiang nodded almost invisibly, and she followed this person.

From the outside, you can't see how big this courtyard is, and you really measure it with your feet to know that this Xiao Mansion is not ordinary.

Several people came out of the corner gate of Qinghui Garden, walked through the corridor, crossed the garden, and passed through the courtyard. After walking for nearly a quarter of an hour, I will walk to the Siyi Temple.

In the eye, there is a thick shadow wall, the top of the head is heavy in summer, the green glazed tiles are shining, and the people who are stabbed are in adversity. The heavy shadow wall inside obstructs it, and the courtyard is stretched very deep.

Entering the courtyard, Fang Zhi Siyi Courtyard was much larger than Qinghui Garden. Seven rooms with seven frames, with rooms and wings.

Wang Shu followed Mama Tsing Yi into the courtyard without squinting, through the courtyard, and into a flower hall.

At this time, there were already three people inside, all of whom were sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls.

All of them have outstanding postures and graceful postures. Looking at the clothes, they are still combing the girl's hair, but the situation is similar to Wang Shu. Wang Shu glanced at it quietly, and quickly lowered her head.

Are these all the concubines who have entered the door today? What kind of family is this?

They had come early, and they had already talked in whispers. There is a person who can speak well, and he will inquire about other people. Regardless of whether it is true or not, the atmosphere seems to be quite harmonious. Wang Shu was the last to come in.

As soon as he entered, he attracted several pairs of eyes.

In terms of appearance, Wang Shu was born with peach flour cheeks, and her eyes were like autumn water. With a bright but not demonic face, a thin neck, and a slender waist, it is already very eye-catching just standing. Partial life is also matched with a calm and peaceful bookish atmosphere, which is particularly outstanding.

She crossed the threshold, and the flower hall was silent for a moment.

In general, they have been explained by their respective housekeepers and grandmothers before they came, and they know that the master of this courtyard has big rules. Although he was very curious about Wang Shu, he suppressed his curiosity and lowered his head obediently.

Wang Shu habitually walked to the side, and her eyes inevitably glanced at the small door in the middle of the flower hall. I don't know if there is someone hiding inside, but I always feel that there is a shadow shaking. Adhering to the principle of doing less and making fewer mistakes, she silently walked to the corner and stood.

At the same time, in the main room of the Siyi Courtyard, the side concubine Lin touched the tanuki slave in her arms with one hand, and her face was ugly. Under her other hand, a little maid knelt on the ground and held her wrist, calling the maid to dye cardamom.

The lingering aroma of condensation spread in the room, which was specially prepared by the imperial doctor in Beijing, and it couldn't suppress the anger in her heart.

Concubine Lin was born in Yangzhou Prefecture and was the third daughter of Ganzhou Prefecture Pastoral Lin Daozhong.

Qingming was sent to the palace draft in the nineteenth year, and because he played the piano well, he was appointed by Emperor Longhui as the prince's side concubine. and Liang Shuyi, who was the concubine of the prince at the time, entered the mansion of Xiao Yanxing, who was still the prince at the time.

The two entered the house at the same time, she was on the side, and Liang Shuyi was positive.

Lin's background is not low, and his aunt is one of the four concubines of the dynasty. Since the little mother loves her father's pet, she has grown up in the nest. If it weren't for the loss in appearance and a thin melon seed face, the Lin family with a round face would not be as blessed as the round face, and the original concubine might not be who it was. It is precisely because of this incident that the two have formed a bond since the initial name. After entering the house, it was even more inextricably fought.

Liang Shuyi occupies the position of the concubine, and as the eldest woman, she crushes the Lin family to death in terms of identity. The Lin family is powerful, and they don't accept Liang Shuyi at all. She is not right, and she has to find an opportunity to stab the concubine a few times.

The two fought like black chickens for several years, and even if the crown prince was abolished, they couldn't stop the two. A year ago, Xiao Yanxing suddenly developed hysteria again, and he had to abandon his mansion in Liangzhou and become a monk in Lin'an County. No matter how much you persuade you, it doesn't make sense.

Liangzhou is already a bitter cold place, and Lin'an County is located in a more remote area, which is naturally more difficult. The ladies of the house are all delicate nobles, where can they endure such suffering? I don't want to follow. No, as soon as Xiao Yanxing brought it up, Concubine Liang Shuyi took the lead in opposing it. This matter made a lot of trouble, and only the Lin family, who was against Liang Shuyi in everything, was willing.

In other words, on the side of the Lin'an County Mansion, there is only one female protagonist of the Lin family.

But since March, news has been spread in Liangzhou, and the good days are over. His Majesty was distressed that the prince was weak and had no heirs, so he specially selected four beauties for him. The eldest princess, Liang Shuyi, thought that for the sake of the royal heirs, she quickly whipped the beauty to Lin'an County.

Lin has been suffering from a loss of appetite for a few days.

"Liang Shuyi, this slut! I just can't see me! ”

Thinking of Liang Shuyi, Lin hated itchy, "She looks so ugly by herself, she is not likable, she wants to do some dirty things to deal with others!" ”

His Royal Highness and the Liang family are not on good terms and do not want to be in the same room. For many years, she has not entered the courtyard of the Liang family, although the Lin family has no favor, but she is the only one in Lin'an County, and she is the only one in the family. The good things sent by Liangzhou entered her courtyard, and the reward days in Beijing also belonged to her. I don't know how comfortable the days are.

Lin thought that His Highness had been delirious in the past few years, and sooner or later he would regain his senses. If she dominates this side alone, she will definitely be able to come out on top and give birth to her eldest son.

The slut of the Liang family didn't give her a chance, and sent the beauties in the capital not to mention, but also Zhang Luo was a local beauty pageant!

Thinking of this, Lin couldn't help but exert his fingers. The little raccoon slave in his arms screamed. With a whimper, he bit her clothes and turned around and ran out.

The people were so frightened by this movement that their souls were about to fly. The chickens and dogs jumped and pounced, grabbing with all hands and feet. Another mess.

Lin was already impetuous, and when he saw this, he couldn't help grabbing the cup in his hand and smashing it.

The porcelain fell to the ground with a crisp sound. For a moment, the people in this room were frightened and silent, and they didn't dare to come out.

"Panic, panic!" Lin was so angry that he shrugged his chest, "Withdraw!" ”

With a wave of her hand, the maid immediately removed the tray.

The little maid took a lot of effort to catch the little raccoon slave, and shrank in the corner and didn't dare to say anything.

Lin was in no mood to care about this, so he stroked his clothes, sat back on the chaise longue, and cleaned her up by his personal attendant.

Her delicate face was furrowed at this time, her eyebrows were frowning, and she was full of indignation. The alarm of the little civet slave did not interfere with anything, and her mind was occupied by the four 'Kyoto beauties' who arrived tonight and those who were waiting outside.

"Master, I've been hanging them for a while, shouldn't I call them over to talk?"

Mama Su, who was waiting closely, opened the curtain and came in, took the handkerchief in the hand of the big girl's green bottle, wrung it wet and wiped it for her personally, "Niangniang, don't be angry." If you are angry about this little thing, it is not worth it to be angry. ”

Mama Su is Lin's grandmother and has taken care of her from birth to adulthood. More concerned than biological children. Later, the Lin family entered the prince's mansion, and Mama Su also followed up with the room. After many years of affection, Mama Su's dignity here in the Lin family is unique. No one could persuade Lin's temper, so Mama Su persuaded him.

Why didn't the Lin family know? It's just that the past year has been too comfortable, making it difficult for her to adapt.

"Master, relax, these people are just a decoration."

Mama Su persuaded while wiping for her, "What is the condition of our master, others don't know, and the master doesn't know?" These women have grown into immortals, and in the eyes of our lord, they are no different from lumps of meat. To put it mildly, the pious posture of the lord now, I am afraid that those people will feel blasphemous to the Buddha when they get closer......"
