Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water
Chapter 558: Well-informed
With four obedient maids, a housekeeper who each has her own responsibilities, and Zhou Molan, Gu Wenxuan felt much more at ease even though the female doctor had not arrived yet.
After everything is arranged, before the annual examination, the old gentleman will personally teach students the course "etiquette" in the elective courses for the next month or so.
After the 15th day of rest, early in the morning of the 16th, Gu Wenxuan had to harden his heart and follow Zhou Banxia's advice to go back to the county school with Zhou Yujiang to attend classes.
The happiest one is Dajiang.
While his third sister is already being taken care of, and as long as safety is ensured within a month before the birth, he still wants his third brother-in-law to be by her side to provide guidance.
No matter how good the county school teacher is, he can never compare to his third brother-in-law who knows his academic deficiencies, can help him correct them in time, and can also ask for advice at any time.
The young man in his teens was dressed in a scholar's robe, a scholar's scarf on his head, and an ermine fur cloak. He had a handsome face and was quite outstanding.
But once these honest words were spoken, it was clear that the elegant young man who gave Zhou Banxia a toothache and Gu Wenxuan so much joy was still a child who had not grown up.
After sending her husband and uncle off to the county school, Zhou Banxia found a big enough place to live and didn't have to pay her respects in the morning and evening. As promised, she stayed in her own yard to take care of her pregnancy.
It wasn't boring during that time. During the day, either her mother-in-law would bring her sister-in-law to her place to rest, or her eldest sister-in-law Ma Shan would bring her children over to chat with her about gossip.
Or the whole family is with her, and her mother and her elder sister will come every other day, and sometimes Xiaohe will come and stay overnight.
Therefore, although she lives in her own yard, she is well-informed.
For example, Da Niu's mother-in-law went to the third room again and wanted to marry Da Niu as soon as possible, and Da Niu's future husband secretly gave Da Niu a wooden hairpin.
The third girl from the third room was favored by the eldest sister-in-law of the fourth aunt, who wanted to marry her. When the eldest aunt found out, she was very unhappy and complained to the old lady about being sold.
The second girl from the eldest house was made to cry by her mother. Two days ago, she was taken to live in a grocery store in the city by her third brother Gu Silang. Gu Silang did not allow Gu Dalang and his family of four to live in there.
It is said that Gu Silang's mother-in-law even went to the old courtyard and talked to the old man and the old lady about something. Now Gu Silang and his wife have got half of the grocery store.
The third room's vermicelli workshop is so busy that the eldest aunt is jealous. She can't find out the real income from her son Sanlang, and she has to please the fourth aunt.
The fourth aunt is unhappy these days because the eldest aunt's wife has interfered and the third uncle and aunt are even more unwilling to agree to marry Sanniu to her nephew from her natal family.
Yesterday, the eldest aunt went to Fourth Aunt's house again and sat there for a long time and refused to leave. Finally, Fourth Aunt got angry and she told her not to come in front of Sanlang's wife.
Similar gossips happened every day, and Zhou Banxia heard a lot of them, but everyone had a tacit understanding not to visit her yard after the hour of You every day.
The sky had been clear for two days, and light snow began to fall again in the afternoon. Before the hour of You, Ma Shan took Xiao Suocheng back to the East Courtyard early.
After dinner, Zhou Banxia looked at the weather and thought that it would be impossible for Gu Wenxuan to rush back before the city gates closed tonight, so she wanted to go back to her room early to rest.
After she washed up, she went back to her room and read for a while. She was planning to go to bed early tonight and let Mai Huang, who had been watching over her, go back to bed early when Ma Shan came.
She was surprised when she heard the maid's report.
Logically speaking, my uncle would have returned home from the town clinic by this time. If there was something important, Ma Shan would not come at this time. Besides, if there was something unexpected, the family should not be too nervous about her. It would not be Ma Shan, the eldest sister-in-law, who would come, but the mother-in-law herself.
If the mother-in-law came along, the maid would not be able to report only that the eldest young lady had arrived. Naturally, the maid would be the first to report.
However, no matter what, the first thing to do is to quickly lead the person into the inner room. Zhou Banxia was stunned for a moment and quickly asked Mai Huang to go out to greet him.
The night in the main courtyard of the West Courtyard is not like the day. Since Gu Wenxuan is not at home, the doors of the courtyard are closed early at night just like the doors of the manor.
At this time, there was a maid guarding the front yard gatehouse. Seeing that it was indeed the eldest young lady who had arrived, and accompanied by a familiar maid, she followed the old rules and immediately opened the door to welcome Ma Shan in.
If it was an outsider, or a new face around Ma Shan, there would naturally be a second or even third way of dealing with it for the concierge to choose from.
There are only a few owners in such a big manor. When it comes to safety awareness, not only Gu Wenxuan is cautious, but Gu Erzhu and Gu Erlang are also careful.
Tonight is Ma Shan's first time here. She also came here unexpectedly at night when Gu Wenxuan was not at home since he went to the county school for half a month and only came back once during that time.
As one of the masters, Ma Shan naturally understood that since her brother-in-law was not at home, there was only one twin sister-in-law left in the West Courtyard, so she had to be extremely careful.
After entering the courtyard, Ma Shan asked someone to inform Zhou Banxia that she was here, considering that no matter how fast she walked, she could not run as fast as the maid at the Chuihua Gate.
After taking two quick steps, she suddenly realized that just because she came alone didn't mean Zhou Banxia wouldn't be scared, so she quickly shouted that it was no big deal and asked the Second Young Madam to slow down.
Although it was dark, big red lanterns were still swaying under the eaves. The dim light made it difficult to see the maid's expression on the other side of the Chuihua Gate, but her figure could still be seen.
Ma Shan saw that after she gave the two orders, which she thought were issued not too long apart, two maids tiptoed in one after another.
After she passed through the hanging flower gate and entered the inner courtyard, and before she could walk from the winding corridor to the east wing corridor and around to the main house, first Gu Dachang's family members and then Mai Huang came to meet her.
So fast?
She walked quickly to the main room, but before she could step into the main hall, a maid diligently opened the curtain. She walked in through the opened curtain, and saw a bright light inside.
From the front yard to the back yard, everyone stood properly, greeted the guests, and then did what they were supposed to do. This was the rule.
In a family, there is not much difference in the rules among the servants on a normal day. Even when Ma Shan was in the family during the day, he did not understand it as deeply as he did at this moment.
The maid who served tea also bowed and left quietly. From beginning to end, there were many maids and old women walking around, but in the middle of the night, there was no noise at all.
The servants in the main courtyard of her east branch didn't seem to be so strict with the rules. It was definitely not because her voice was louder than San Ya's, which caused the maids and old women to raise their voices as well.
"Sister-in-law?"
Zhou Banxia saw that Ma Shan was pulled into the warm room and sat in front of the fireplace. The maids had also left. Ma Shan still looked distracted, so he had to call her back to pay attention.
"San Ya, my maids and servants need you to send a nanny to train them." Ma Shan said without thinking twice. (End of this chapter)
