"What kind of whispers does Xiao Hua bite?" Bai He finally asked.

There is no need to hide this, Mo Zi just told Bai He about Zhang's thoughts.

In the end, if you care about it, you will be confused. Bai He, who is usually as steady as a young lady, turns pale with shock, "If this is true, won't the girl be betrothed to someone casually?"

"Xiaohua has a good memory, so it should be true. Also, how can she be so good and help our girl find a good family in Shangdu?" Mo Zi had expected it, and said calmly, "Although we invited the girl tonight First of all, it is a family banquet, and if the serious young lady does not attend, there will be no seats for the concubine girls. Second, we must do what my wife thinks, let Liu Niang over our girl's head, and I can't tell the pain. "

"Mo Zi, what should I do?" Bai He is as careful as a hair, and can manage her daily life in an orderly manner, but she is too kind and not good at dealing with conspiracies.

"When you see the girl later, tell her every word, at least she knows." However, Mo Zi guessed that Qiu Sanniang would lose her temper first.Qiu Sanniang's temperament, even though she has been tempered outside, is naturally strong.Originally, I couldn't tolerate a grain of sand in my eyes.After returning to this home, let her persuade the little ones who can't bear it to make troubles and make big plans, so they are more restrained.

Bai He sighed, "Now the wives of the whole house have the final say, I really don't understand why she doesn't like our girl so much. After handing in the account books, money and stamps, the girl stays in her own courtyard, isn't it obedient enough?"

"Who made the girl so capable in the past?" As long as Qiu Sanniang was in this house for a day, she would be a thorn in the flesh of some people. "I'm also afraid that the master will change his mind when his health recovers. Anyway, the master sincerely regards our girl as the apple of her eye."

"Master, that's about it..." Bai He suddenly sensed a slip of the tongue, and coughed in embarrassment, "You let me tell the girl, what about you?"

Mo Zi is a second-class maid, but Bai He also knows that she is very intelligent.Ever since Mo Zi entered the mansion, the girl has entrusted her with all the important matters, and she can even entrust the jade token for leaving the mansion at will.

"I'll go and inquire about the honored guest." Mo Zi pointed to the east gate of Qiu Mansion.

"Going out of the house? It's a bit late at this hour?" Bai He looked at the sun.

"Don't go out of the house, just stroll around. You go back quickly, lest the girls come out from Jiuniang's place, one or two, and you won't be seen." Mo Zi originally wanted to go with Bai He, but Bai He said it unconsciously A vegetarian feast made her guess.

"Where's Xiaoyi?" Bai He didn't care about Mo Zi.These four maids, all of them have their own ideas, and they are still used to by their own young ladies.

"I just came down from a tree, and I told her to go back. However, I can't be sure which tree she fell asleep on and forgot my words." Mo Zi is not sure, it has happened several times so far, I don't even bother to count.

"That girl, you can only be active when you go out with a girl." Bai He smiled and shook her head.

He wanted to turn around, but Mo Zi stopped him again.

"Bai He, what's in the food box?"

"It's the Melaleuca cloud ice cream that girls like to eat. I also added green tea powder according to your idea. It tastes good. Keep some, and when you come back to eat, please rate me." It's unheard of, but her pursuit of culinary skills is far from her character, her limit, her boldness.

Mo Zi suddenly smiled and stretched out her hand, taking away the top one.

"Where are you taking it?" Bai He was annoyed and funny, and Mo Zi even took the lid off the top.

"The mouth is short for eating people." Mo Zi had already walked around the ivy-covered wall.

Bai He had no choice but to take out her handkerchief, carefully covered the food box that was missing the top, and walked quickly towards her yard.

The east gate of Qiu Mansion is also the main gate, so it is naturally in the outer garden.

Unlike Mo Zi's understanding of history, it may also be because the Qiu Mansion is a businessman, and there is no strict distinction between men and women in the inner and outer gardens.The female family members of the inner garden do not often go to the outer courtyard, but even if they go to the outer garden, people will make a fuss.As for the maids, as long as they have the master's orders, they can come and go freely.However, Zhang's permission must be obtained for the female family members in the back garden to leave the mansion.

Qiu Sanniang is a special case of the Qiu family.Master Qiu took back the seal of the account book, and left the jade token for leaving the house to his daughter alone.Confess to Mrs. Zhang, saying that Sanniang went out with him to do business since she was a child, unlike ordinary daughters who live in deep boudoirs, since she no longer cares about the family business, it is appropriate to allow her to move around.

Mrs. Zhang won the watermelon, only because of the fact that the sesame seeds are big, so there is no way she would not agree.Looking at the past six months, Sanniang never went out of the house alone, at most she sent a girl to buy snacks outside, not many times, and she went back immediately.Mrs. Zhang sent people to watch several times, but found nothing, so she was relieved.

Therefore, Mo Zi showed the jade tablet to the woman in charge of the garden gate, and the woman let her into the Echo Hall without asking.

At the end of the long and narrow corridor with gray walls, there is an arched copper door, all the way to the east.Most of the people who trim flowers and cut grass, feed birds and clean up, and go to and from the garden corridor are small servants.Among them, the maids and servants in common clothes are led by the housekeeper to work, and they come and go in groups.There are also beautiful maids, most of whom are brought out from the inner courtyard by the men to serve them, and they will not go out to visit the garden.Moreover, the outer garden is the residence of the study, accountant, living room, and the stewards and their families. It is more than half smaller than the inner garden. There is only a front garden, a half-acre lotus pond, and a two-story pavilion for the gentlemen's banquets. .

In the evening, the servants who lived in the outer garden went out from the inner garden, and the maids who served the men came in from the outer garden, and the door was locked.For servants and servants without a special brand, those outside can't get in, and those inside can't get out.

There are still rules, but if you guard against day and night, it is difficult to guard against house thieves.

Although Mo Zi paid attention all the way, no one paid attention to her.Because of the old clothes, and bowed her head, in the garden where the flowers in the spring are more colorful than the leaves, her sense of existence is darker than the shadow of the leaves.

Hearing the ditties babbling and babbling from the Wild Goose Tower, it was probably Qiu Si calling friends to drink, and recruiting prostitutes from somewhere to play.

What a pair of brothers.One is playing inside and the other is outside.

Mo Zi lowered her head, her eyes narrowed coldly, and the corners of her mouth curled up mockingly.

At the east gate, the porters, one old and one young, are sitting on the lower bench and gossiping.

"Tian Da, Er Ya." The black purple gray tone disappeared, and he smiled sweetly, shaking the vermilion lacquer box, "See what delicious food I brought you?"

The one called Er Ya, two years younger than Mo Zi, has two white teeth and speaks sweetly, "Only my good sister thinks about our hard work." She took it, opened the lid, and put a piece of cake in her mouth impatiently, uh Not to put it bluntly.

Tian Da is in his 40s, has a strange temper, and easily offends people when he speaks. He has been in the concierge for 20 years.

No, when he saw Mo Zi, his face turned black, he muttered and murmured to himself, but it was clear to everyone's ears, "The gate of our mansion is a dog's hole, it's cats or mice, it's slippery in and out."

"Uncle, elder sister Mo Zi has a jade card." Er Ya was clever, and hurriedly pulled Tian Da to stop him from talking nonsense.

"What's the matter with the jade card? If this is a man, I won't let a single fart go. The woman is a family, and she wants to run out when she sees the sky. Our Qiu Mansion is a big family in Luozhou, and any maid who serves in front of the master is worth going outside. The lady in the small door. She shows her face in public, and makes outsiders laugh for nothing. We feel ashamed to be the doorkeeper." Tian Da didn't say what should be said, and said what shouldn't be said.

Er Ya scolded inwardly, you janitor, shame on you.Can jade medals be obtained by individuals?Apart from the wife, there are three girls in the inner garden.And Mo Zi is the one who often takes the sign in front of the third girl, and he is like half a master in his eyes.Whenever he sees a girl who is proud in front of his wife and young master, he will throw his face away.

Er Ya was afraid of offending Mo Zi, so he hurriedly laughed along, "Sister, don't listen to my uncle's nonsense."

In this mansion, who can be like Mo Zi, thinking about doing them good, even if they are just guards?
