After dinner, Mrs. Feng patted Chen Fan's hand: "You and your mother go for a walk together."

Chen Fan followed Mrs. Feng obediently, with Zhang Ci at the side.Mrs. Feng talked about the family affairs one after another, and led the two into her yard.

"Tell mother if you feel unwell, don't delay."

Chen Fan looked at Zhang Ci shyly, and he smiled enthusiastically: "Mother, she is pregnant. She just got the pulse diagnosis before departure, and the days are still relatively young."

"Really?" Mrs. Feng was surprised and delighted, "It's great, you have a child, and you have a common bond." As she spoke, she couldn't help but get red eyes.

Zhang Ci caressed his mother's back: "Mother, you have several grandchildren, why are you still crying with joy?"

Mrs. Feng wiped the corners of her eyes: "This is different. I can't take care of you if you are not around. You must be more careful and take good care of your body."

Chen Fan nodded.

Mrs. Feng opened a drawer and took out a piece of jade: "You have worked hard to carry yourself, you should take this piece of jade first, and when the child is born, we will make a jade pendant for him."

Chen Fan took the jade and snuggled into Mrs. Feng's arms: "Thank you, mother."

Mrs. Feng talked about the precautions, and said: "You don't have any mature and dignified people to take care of you. I'll let Nanny Xu follow you, and I will assign two maids to you."

"Mother, this is not right. The other households have seen it, and maybe they will send people over, and the higher-ups will also send people over." Zhang Ci reminded in a low voice.

Mrs. Feng waved her hand: "It's okay, if my family doesn't give it away, others will. Last year you were only staying temporarily, and there was no movement. Now that Chen Ying is officially married, you are officially involved in the capital. Let's see, everyone Someone will come over. Tomorrow, at the latest the day after tomorrow, the palace will ask you to face the saint."

Chen Fan glanced at Zhang Ci: "Will I give you a concubine?"

Zhang Ci's face sank: "Are you mentioning a concubine again?"

Mrs. Feng patted her son: "What's so fierce? She's right, you're young and have no roots, you can't hide."

Zhang Ci's face became even uglier.

Chen Fan shook Mrs. Feng's arm: "Mother, no matter who comes in, we will take care of it."

Mrs. Feng patted her head: "You can bring people over later and let them serve you."

Chen Fan followed Zhang Ci back to the front yard first, and after a while, Mrs. Feng came over, as did Madam Xu and two maids.

Mrs. Feng put a box into Chen Fan's hand: "This is their body deed, and they will follow you from now on."

Madam Xu said with red eyes: "Please rest assured, Lord and Young Master, this old slave will definitely take good care of you with all his heart."

The two maids also gave a blessing: "The slaves will definitely serve the Lord and Young Master with all their heart and soul."

Chen Fan nodded, and said to the taller maid: "From now on, your name will be Chaoyun." Then he looked at the shorter maid: "Your name is Mu Xue."

When everyone returned to the mansion, Chen Fan asked the three of the Xu family to meet with the servants and maids in her yard.

Liu Xu was in the same room as Steward Li's daughter, Li Yan, and she murmured softly, "I've always been in Su Yuan, and I haven't been in the Xiangjun's mansion for a long time, but you have been in the Xiangjun's mansion for so many years, and the Xiangjun just asked you to be a second child." Waiting for the maids. Qin Zheng, Yanxiu and the others are first-class maids, housekeepers inside and out. This time I came to the capital, I was promoted, but you are still a second-class maid. It's just a first-class girl. I really feel wronged for you."

Li Yan looked at her: "Do you think we can handle the people and things in the capital?"

Liu Xu said nothing.

Li Yan said: "You have been in Su Garden for many years. You know how comfortable your life is. How many people begged to come to Su Garden to have fun and hold banquets. When you arrive at the Xiangjun's Mansion, the master is kind and the things are simple. But there are so many rich and powerful in the capital, and how many people are there. We don't even know people well, we don't even know which street or road to fight in secret, how can we take care of the Xiangjun?"

"That's because we just came here, we'll naturally get to know each other after a while." Liu Xu objected.

Li Yan smiled: "Mr. Xiang still has to spend time waiting for us to grow? Mr. Xiang is willing to support us and bring us to the capital. It is already a great kindness. We can't work for Mr. Xiang, but let Mr. Xiang take care of us?"

"That is to say, don't you want to go up in your heart?"

"Of course I want to, but we are from a small place. We have to learn more from Chao Yun and Mu Xue, and strive to become a first-class maid as soon as possible. The Xiangjun Mansion still lacks a lot of manpower, and we have many opportunities."

"Butler Li is no longer the butler when he arrives in the capital." Liu Xu muttered again.

Li Yan glanced at her again: "My father was originally a small steward of the Liu family, and it was my father's good fortune for the Xiangjun to mention him as the steward of Su Garden, how could he dare to expect to be the chief steward as soon as he arrives in the capital? If he can be a small steward, he already has a chance."

Liu Xu curled her lips: "My parents thought it would be nice for me to come to the capital, just a second-class maid, doing things in the yard."

Li Yan frowned slightly: "It's not good to be a second-class maid in the fourth-rank mansion in the capital? If the mansion puts up a notice tomorrow to recruit housewives, there must be a large number of people scrambling to come in. Let's work hard and put The position of this second-class maid is secured first."

Liu Xu didn't speak any more, she blinked her eyes at the roof beams.

Early the next morning, Eunuch Xiao came to the Chen Mansion and said that the Holy Majesty invited her and Mr. Zhang into the palace.

The two quickly dressed and changed their clothes, and followed Xiao Gonggong into the palace.

Zhao Yun and Mu Yu gathered the staff, explained the rules of the mansion, and took everyone around the mansion to learn about the situation.

Liu Xu lowered her head and bit her lip.When everyone dispersed, she took a rag and muttered, "Isn't this the work of a rough servant girl?"

Li Yan looked around: "Shen Yan, this is all housework, not sweeping the yard outside."

"Xiangjun seldom asks someone to serve him personally, and first-class maids have almost no work, and anyone can do it."

Li Yan was annoyed: "Didn't I tell you yesterday? When we go out, we need a maid to take care of us. This is something we can't do now."

"We don't go out, when can we do it?" Liu Xu threw the rag and stomped out.

Li Yan reluctantly picked up the rag and went to work.

Mu Yu came over and walked around, left without saying anything.When Li Yan returned to the house, Liu Xu raised her eyebrows triumphantly: "Mu Yu didn't say anything just now, she wants to give us face."

Li Yan shook her head: "The methods of the big family are powerful. We'd better be more cautious."

Liu Xu disagreed.

The emperor looked at the two kneeling on the ground: "Feng Jun?"

"The grass people are here."

"Craftsmen? You are no ordinary grassroots. You are the dean of the well-known Changping Academy."
