In the outer room of Hou Men, she took advantage of her beauty to commit murder

Chapter 5 Green Plum Past

Seeing that she seemed impatient, Lumei and Lumei looked at each other, and they didn't dare to say anything, so they could only leave.

After gently closing the door, Lumei turned her head and looked at Liu Ci, then walked down the steps together and stood on the yard.

Lu Mei pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "It seems that the girl doesn't like slaves being close to each other!" But after just a while, she felt disgusted by the girl!

This made Lu Mei, who finally got the opportunity to serve her master, a little discouraged.

Liu Ci patted the back of her hand comfortingly, "Don't worry, the girl has just arrived and doesn't know us well, and we don't know her preferences. It's normal for you to feel this way!"

"As you can see, the girl is beautiful and she is the first woman that the young master has brought back in these years. As long as she is not a bad person, she will definitely have great fortunes!"

"The most important thing for you now is to understand the girl's preferences, find out her personality, and then show your abilities, so that you can stay by the girl's side all the time!"
Listening to Liu Ci's comfort and teaching, Lumei reluctantly let go of her worries.

Looking at Liu Ci who looked at her kindly, Lu Mei seemed to have thought of something. Lu Mei gently leaned her head on her shoulder and said with a smile, "Mother Liu, it feels like having you by my side. That's great!" With her here, she is a child who will be loved by others.

In the fifth year of Ning'an, there was a severe drought in the south of Jingguo for three years, and the people were in dire straits. After the severe drought, floods occurred frequently and people ate each other.

At that time, Li Mei, who was not called Lumei, was eight years old. The Li family moved all the way north in order to survive.

Unexpectedly, because there were too many victims, in order not to cause turmoil, many cities refused to accept the victims.

Lumei's family had no choice but to continue heading north, and finally found a place to live. Before they were completely stable, Li's mother fell down due to a serious illness.

As soon as she fell ill, all the money the family still had was spent in just two days.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and three days later, my elder brother and youngest brother also fell down due to serious illness.

There are five brothers and sisters in Lumei, Lumei Xingsan, with a 15-year-old brother and a 14-year-old sister, and two younger brothers, who are six and four years old.

Both laborers were down, and the whole family was waiting to eat and drink. However, the money earned by Father Li alone was not enough to cover the family's expenses, let alone treat his wife and children.

In order to survive, Li's father thought for three days, and finally decided to sell the child.

If you don't sell the child, the whole family may die of starvation or disease; if you sell a child, the money you get can cure the child and give the family more ways to survive.

Lu Mei's sister is already 15 years old. She is half a laborer. She can still make money by doing some embroidery work, but it is impossible to sell it!

The elder brother is the eldest son and is also sick. It is impossible to sell it, and it is impossible to sell the two younger ones. After all the calculations, only Green Plum is suitable!
As a result, Lu Mei was sold by Li's father.

Fortunately, because Li's father felt guilty and wanted to sell her, he spent a long time getting to know her before selling her to a regular dental shop that specialized in providing maids to wealthy families!

Lucky for her, Lumei was taken all the way north to the capital by Yaxing, and then brought to Ling'an County. Liu Cixiang, who was already the junior manager of Dabieyuan at the time, bought her back and renamed her Lumei.

Lumei has a sweet appearance and a sweet mouth, so she was always taken by Liu Ci's side. After a long time, the relationship between the two deepened.

Liu Ci has a kind personality, but he is not good at words. Lumei is hardworking but raised a little innocently. He thinks she is good, so he really treats her with more respect and closeness. Of course, Liu Ci, who has never had a child, softens his heart.

After coming and going, he recognized her as his goddaughter.

Because Lumei suffered too much hardship when she was a child, she entered the Dabieyuan, and she always wanted to climb up. Fortunately, she had Liu Ci to teach her, so she didn't have any wrong thoughts, but her goal became , Let yourself become the first-class maid of the Duke's Mansion.

As the temporary residence of the master's family in Ling'an County, the management of the Dabieyuan is still very strict. The original supervisors and principals are all sent by the master's family, which is regarded as first-class.

Anyone who is added later, unless the serious owner of the host family agrees, can only be second-class at best.

Lumei worked hard for six years in the Dabieyuan, but she was only able to get herself promoted to the second class.

She is not reconciled, she wants to stay in the mansion all the time, there is no shortage of food or drink in the mansion, as long as she is obedient, she can live a good life.

But if she has always been a second-class maid, she will be sent out of the house at the age of 25.

At that time, if she is lucky, she will still be able to meet a good-looking, diligent and honest boy to marry; if she is unlucky, she can only return home and be pressured by her parents to marry, because she is old enough to marry There are only two types, either old gangsters who have been delayed because of bad conduct and no one is willing to marry, or young men who have already lost their wives. Most of these also mean that they want to be stepmothers.

But as long as she becomes a first-class maid, at the age of 25, she can groom herself as a nanny, and she will take care of her until her health is really bad. If the master has a conscience, she will arrange for the elderly...

Even if you don't arrange it, don't be afraid. At this time, you will usually have a certain amount of money on your body. As long as you don't use it extravagantly, it is enough to spend it safely until you die and add a coffin board!
It is because of this that Lvmei is thinking of being promoted to the first class.

So, this morning, when someone came to the main courtyard to ask for help, Lu Mei picked up the package with determination and came over.

Liu Ci was completely reluctant to let go and was worried about Lu Mei, so she followed her. Otherwise, she could have been a small supervisor in the courtyard...

inside the room.

Luo Siyun took off the last piece of clothing on her body, then stepped on the steps next to the bathtub and entered the bathtub.

As soon as the slightly scalding water touched her skin, she couldn't help but let out a "hiss!".

It's a little hot!
But it's acceptable. After feeling it a little bit, I'm sure I'm used to it, and then I can fully step in.

Standing in the bucket, Luo Siyun realized something was wrong and carefully felt the touch of the soles of his feet.

The inside of this bathtub is actually high on one side and low on the other, and there is a place to sit.

Finding the right position, sat down, the hot water just covered his shoulders, and the moment his whole body was immersed in the hot water, Luo Siyun couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"Ah——" So comfortable!

The wall of the barrel behind is specially curved by a clever craftsman, which fits the structure of the human body very well, and it makes people relax when leaning on it!
Luo Siyun sighed, even a bathtub is so ingeniously designed!
Grandparents will really enjoy it!

Sitting in the tub, feeling the hot water, all the fatigue in my body disappeared, and it was so comfortable that I felt almost confused.

Luo Siyun leaned his head on the edge of the bucket, his body sank slightly, and the area below his chin was submerged in the water!
After a while, I felt like I was short of breath, so I sat up...

Looking at the petals on the water, the petals seem to have been specially selected. The petals are uniform in size and similar in color.

What a luxury!
Luo Siyun couldn't help fiddled with it a few times.

Her long black hair draped behind her like a waterfall. The hair fell into the water, wandering and stretching among the petals, like a naughty elf playing in the water.

The water vapor rises up and condenses into water droplets between the buns. When it shakes slightly, it slowly slides down to the delicate chin!
Staying there nostalgic, but before the next drop of water arrives, it drips neatly into the water.

Raise the jade arm, put your hand on the edge of the bucket, the transparent water drops go all the way up the jade arm, and finally rush to the round thin shoulder...

The splashing water droplets moved the petals inside, and a mischievous one jumped onto the smooth shoulder. Before it could stop, the water droplets eagerly jumped up and washed it down...

Mischievous drops of water flowed down the sideburns, then along the slender neck, stopped slightly in front of the delicate collarbone, and finally submerged in the water along the white lines in the middle...

The jade back, as smooth and white as the first snow, was wetted with water, even in the room, it was glowing white, with a healthy and dazzling luster.

Her black hair was ruffled in the water, the petals were pushed aside, and her slender waist was half-hidden in the water, barely exposed...

Main room.

Li Xingyi, who had finished grooming, was half lying on the couch, his eyes half closed.

Yuan An half-knelt on one knee behind him with a handkerchief, and twisted his hair seriously.

There is silence in the room, and the years are quiet!

"What is she doing now?"

Li Xingyi suddenly asked, breaking the tranquility!
Yuan An kept his hands on his hands, "I guess he is washing up, after all, he has been working hard for several days!" How can it be clean if it is not washed well!

Besides, girls’ families should be very clean!
"Knock, knock, knock!" There was a knock on the door.

Li Xingyi looked up.

"Enter!"

The door was pushed open, Yuan Fu came in with a letter in his hand, handed the envelope to him, and said respectfully, "Master, this is the letter delivered by the old lady this morning!"

Li Xingyi took the letter, sat up, opened it and asked, "Did grandma say anything?"

"The old lady said she wants you to return to Beijing as soon as possible!" It's been a year since he came out. If he doesn't go back, she will suspect that he died outside!

Opening the envelope, I glanced at it briefly to make sure there was nothing important, and then carefully read the contents word for word.

After thinking about it, he folded the letter carefully, put it back into the envelope, and handed it to Yuan An, who had already put down the veil behind him, "Put it away carefully!"

"Yes!"

Looking at Yuan Fu, Li Xingyi pondered for a moment, and said, "I'll go back tomorrow!" It takes two hours to return to the capital from here. Today is late, so let's go tomorrow!

Yuan Fu reminded, "My lord, it's my little lord's birthday tomorrow!"
