Chapter 170
Yong'an Hou Mansion.

After returning home, Nanny Gui first went to the Shou'an Hall to greet the old lady.

"The old lady—the old slave is back." Nanny Gui opened the bead curtain made of emerald strings, and walked in slowly.

The old lady of the Hou Mansion was sitting in her bedroom, and Nanny Li was standing beside her to serve her. Hearing Nanny Gui's voice, the old lady turned her head suddenly, and raised her hand to stop Nanny Li from moving, "Okay, the rest Let Nanny Gui come."

Nanny Li, who was standing beside her, subconsciously lowered her eyelids to hide the dissatisfaction in her eyes.

What does the old lady mean?
It's okay to be partial to Nanny Gui in the past, but now it's my turn to serve her.
Nanny Gui entered the room and said with a smile: "This old slave pays his respects to the old lady. I wish the old lady good health and prosperity."

After hearing Nanny Gui's auspicious words, the old lady's complexion improved visibly, and she waved to her, "Come here quickly, you haven't been by my side for the past two days, and I always feel bored."

Nanny Li's heart choked.

Does this mean that she is dull-tempered?

His face became more and more ugly.

There was only one place beside the old lady, and she asked Nanny Gui to come over, and Nanny Li would naturally back away.

Nanny Gui handed the incense box to Nanny Li with a natural movement, and immediately came to the old lady, combed her hair carefully, and tidied it up in less than a quarter of an hour, "Old lady, it's ready."

The old lady looked at her decent face in the mirror, and she was very satisfied, "It's better that you serve with all your heart."

Nanny Li's face turned pale.

Where is she not doing her best?

But the other party was the old lady with the highest status in the Yong'an Hou Mansion, even if she took a hundred courage from Nanny Li, she would not dare to refute a single word, so she could only grit her teeth and swallow the bitterness.

Nanny Gui smiled and said, "Old lady, you are joking, you are the ancestor of the Yong'an Hou Mansion, how can the people below serve you wholeheartedly?"

This was for Nanny Li, and Nanny Li naturally couldn't express anything, and raised her eyes to Nanny Gui to show her gratitude.

The two waited for the old lady to come to the side hall for dinner.

There are several delicious side dishes on the round table, and the big kitchen is made of the old lady's favorite flavors. It's just that Mammy Li has been by her side for the past two days, and the old lady stopped using every dish after a few mouthfuls, as if No appetite.

Nanny Gui is very good at watching, so she quickly picked up the serving chopsticks, and gave the old lady her favorite hibiscus and jade cake. This small dish uses more than a dozen kinds of high-quality ingredients, and it takes a long time , the master chef in the kitchen will make it two hours in advance every time, and warm it in the stove when it is done, and deliver it on time when the old lady gets up.

"Old madam, this old slave looks at this hibiscus jade cake, which is a bit different, why don't you try it first?"

The old lady was dubious, took a sip, her brows and eyes relaxed slightly, "You are right, everyone who cooks in the big kitchen today will be rewarded."

Nanny Gui bowed, "The old slave will thank the old lady for them."

The old lady said angrily, "It's not for you, why are you rushing to say thank you?"

"The old slave can only lick his face and beg the old lady for a reward." Nanny Gui joked with a smile.

The old lady seemed to be used to it, and she couldn't be happier, "Cheng Chengcheng, you will go to the old body room to put the silver naked body in the box later, and give some to the servants in Shou'an Hall."

Nanny Gui's expression immediately became excited, she smiled and complimented her a few times, which made the old lady laugh again and again.

Nanny Li couldn't help but glared at her, and secretly said, "A sycophant."

After the old lady had finished her breakfast, she seemed to have remembered something, and looked at it suspiciously: "Didn't you go to Huai County to pick up the girl? What about the girl?"

"Sister Gui has always been able to do things well, this time. Could it be that she didn't bring her cousin back?" Nanny Li couldn't help stabbing her.

The old lady frowned involuntarily.

Nanny Gui was nervous, and quickly walked up to her and knelt down, "If you go back to the old lady, the old servant is ineffective and failed to bring the cousin back, so I ask the old lady to punish you."

The old lady frowned even tighter, "What's going on?"

She originally thought that Nanny Gui won her heart so much that this small matter of picking up someone would be done properly, but she didn't expect that the result would still be the same?
The corner of Nanny Li's mouth raised unconsciously.

Nanny Gui saw this slight change, and she wished she could grab Nanny Li, tear at her clothes and yell at her, "You're also serving the old lady, how can you make trouble like this?"

She lowered her head even more, and her face became more respectful, "Returning to the old lady, the cousin is because... A few days ago, Nanny Li was suspicious of picking up the wrong person. He didn't care much about her, and he didn't want to go back to the mansion with this old slave when he was disheartened."

Originally, I was waiting to see the liveliness of Nanny Gui, but I didn't expect to see the fire burning on me, and my complexion changed drastically, and I quickly knelt down, "Old lady, it's all due to the old slave's carelessness, otherwise How could you be deceived by that family?"

The old lady sighed, "Forget it, I can't blame you for this, you both get up!"

No matter what, those people are all relatives of Zhen Zhen, and it still depends on Zhen Zhen's face.

Nanny Li hurriedly got up, "Thank you, old lady, for your compassion." At the same time, she did not forget to cast a provocative look at Nanny Gui.

Nanny Gui pretended not to see her, took the incense box from Chu Wanning from her hand, and was about to present it, "Old madam, although Cousin doesn't say anything on the face, she is thinking of you in her heart... This is a cousin The girl heard that you are suffering from a headache, so she personally mixed the tranquilizing incense."

The old lady said "Oh?", as if she was very surprised, but she was about to speak when she heard Nanny Li smiled nonchalantly, "Old lady, who can compare to the third girl in our mansion in terms of fragrance mixing skills? No? The old slave doesn't like the cousin girl, but what good fragrance can that small place in Huai County produce?
Biao girl is sincere, but if it makes the old lady's headache aggravate, that would be too bad! "

Hearing this, the old lady suddenly lost interest, and waved her hand, "Just throw the things in the warehouse and keep them."

She finally remembered that the girl still had the title of "Lone Star of the Fiend" on her body, and she didn't know how mysterious this thing was!

Nanny Gui originally wanted to persuade a few more words, but seeing the old lady's firm attitude, she had to suppress it.

What a pity, Cousin girl's kindness!
At this time, a group of people from Yong'an Houfu came to Shou'an Hall to pay their respects.

Now the Hou Mansion has not yet separated, and the whole family lives together. Fortunately, the mansion of Yong'an Hou Mansion is very large, with several courtyards, otherwise it really wouldn't be able to accommodate so many people.

Since both the first and second households were already married, upon seeing this, the old lady directly asked her servants to separate the east and west sides. The eldest household, Lord Chuhou, lived on the east side, and the second householder, the concubine, Chu Erye, and his family lived on the west side.

And Sanfang Chuming is the youngest son of the old lady of the Hou Mansion, who has not yet married, and has opened a courtyard in the front yard of the Hou Mansion, which is not too far from the old lady's Shou'an Hall.

After greetings from all the family members, Lord Chu and his brothers went out first, leaving a whole house of children and relatives to talk with the old lady.

After staying for about a quarter of an hour, the old lady became a little tired, and waved everyone to retreat.

Unexpectedly, the youngest son left and returned, the old lady's eyes lit up, and all the exhaustion disappeared all of a sudden.
