Xiao Shiji was very happy when he heard that he was going to Du's house, and hurriedly said to Du Xiancheng: "Uncle Du, I also have some small gifts for Sister Shuang'er, just wait for me!" In the yard, find out the things you have accumulated in your daily life and wrap them up.

Du Xiancheng saw two little maids following Xiao Shiji all the time, he had never seen them before, and asked Xiao Xiangsheng thoughtfully: "Are those two maids just assigned to Brother Ji?"

Xiao Xiangsheng glanced at the backs of the two maidservants in the yard, nodded and said: "Your sister-in-law said that brother Ji will be six years old during Chinese New Year, and he is the eldest son of the family. He doesn't need a adoptive mother and nanny to follow him all day long. It's not good to be a mother-in-law, so he dismissed his adoptive mother and nanny, and sent them away yesterday. These two maids are now the maids in charge of Ji'er's room. It was your sister-in-law who recently gave them Ji Ge'er placed it. One Xiao Miao, who is 12 years old this year, is the eldest maid in Ji's house. The other is Xiaoqing, who is only six years old, half a year older than Ge'er. She is smart and can read and write. , your sister-in-law said, just to urge my brother to study and help him tidy up the books and inkstone."

After hearing this, Du Xiancheng laughed dryly, "Brother, if it's not a woman or a maid, and my brother hangs out with them all day, he will still be a sissy. It's better to find two servants for him in the future. —— How about this, in the future Every single day, let Ji Geer come to my shop to find me, and I will teach him how to ride and shoot, okay?"

Xiao Xiangsheng was overjoyed.He knew Du Xiancheng's riding and archery skills, it was first class.On the battlefield of Goguryeo, he single-handedly shot and killed countless Goguryeo generals.Later, the Goguryeo army set up an ambush against them. The reason was to catch Du Xiancheng and sacrifice to the Goguryeo general who was shot and killed by him.

"Brother said that, but I will be disrespectful. Tomorrow is a single day, and I will let Ji Geer find you." Xiao Xiangsheng said impatiently.

Only then did Du Xiancheng feel relieved, "It's a deal."

While speaking, Xiao Shiji had brought his servants and brought things over.

Du Xiancheng took Xiao Shiji back to Du's house.

Because Xiao Shiji's adoptive mother and nanny were gone, and the young servant was not ready yet, the two servant girls, Xiao Miao and Xiaoqing, went to take care of him.

Xiao Xiangsheng went to the main room to find Long Xiangye to talk.

Since Long Qiuye left, Long Xiangye's illness has been getting better day by day, and she has insisted on taking care of the child herself, and she is not willing to use other people's hands to give people the opportunity to separate their mother and child.So let the nanny take Xiao Tai and Tian Tian under her nose, not to leave for even a moment.

Xiao Taiji was not used to it at the beginning, he kept moaning and chirping all day long.

As soon as he made a fuss, Long Xiangye hugged him and kept him in his arms, letting him familiarize himself with his breath and awakening his memory of his mother.

After all, Xiao Taiji was still a baby of more than six months, and soon left Long Qiuye behind, and became more and more intimate with Long Xiangye.

Seeing Long Xiangye's current appearance, Xiao Xiangsheng obviously overcorrected, and he couldn't bear to talk about her, so he just said: "Your body is just right, why don't you take a good rest? Are you tired from holding Brother Tai every day?"

Long Xiangye stood up with a smile, "It's my own child, why am I tired? ——Why is the master coming back now?"

Xiao Xiangsheng smiled, sent all the servants out of the house, and asked Long Xiangye: "Do you know how your natal family used the 1 taels of silver dowry money we gave your sister?"

Long Xiangye choked, her eyes flickered, she didn't dare to look into Xiao Xiangsheng's eyes, she silently lowered her head, and gently patted the swaddling baby in her arms.

Xiao Xiangsheng understood.Not only did Long Xiangye know about the fact that Long Qiuye's dowry silver was taken away by the Long family and sold to the teacher as a concubine, but he also kept it a secret from himself.

"Oh, we are husband and wife. Why don't you tell me what you have to say?" Xiao Xiangsheng sighed, "I'm so unworthy of your trust?"

What he said made Long Xiangye's heart soft and sour, and she couldn't help but said: "Master, do you care about my sister so much? If that is the case, why did you have to marry her in the first place? Otherwise, I would not keep her in the house." meeting……"

Xiao Xiangsheng interrupted Long Xiangye, and said displeasedly: "Why do you think so? Even if I want to take a concubine, I will definitely not take your own sister to slap you in the face."

"But the master cares about her so much. Back then, he ran around and scattered money everywhere for her to enter the palace. Now he even has to inquire about the whereabouts of the dowry money. Does the master really not care?" Long Xiangye was very worried.She didn't know what Xiao Xiangsheng was thinking.

Xiao Xiangsheng frowned even tighter, "Have you read too many books? How could I be interested in her? I am not angry when others say that. But I am really angry when you say that. ——If you really If you want to show your virtuousness, I have nothing to say. Hurry up and get me a concubine, lest you worry about coming and going every day. I will fulfill your wish." Said, stood up and walked away.

Long Xiangye was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at Xiao Xiangsheng's back, feeling at a loss.

Here, Du Xiancheng took Xiao Shiji back to Xiao's house, first ordered someone to take Xiao Shiji to see Du Hengshuang, and then he took two gifts and Xiao Shiji's two maids to meet Fang Wuniang.

Ordering the two maids to wait in the outer room, Du Xiancheng first went to the inner room to talk to Fang Wuniang.

"Both the adoptive mother and nanny have been sent away? Replaced with two maids?" Fang Wuniang stared, "Brother Ji is only six years old. How old are the two maids? Can they take care of him?"

"I brought people here, you can see for yourself. If something is wrong, I'll go and tell Brother Xiao." Du Xiancheng wanted to plan ahead for everything for his daughter Du Hengshuang.

Fang Wuniang was also very cautious, nodded and said: "I'll go and have a look, you wait here."

Coming to the outer room, Fang Wuniang sat on the long couch and carefully looked at the two maids in front of her.

The big one looked familiar.

"Are you Ji Ge'er's maids?" Fang Wuniang held up her own stove to warm her hands, her eyes kept looking up and down at the two maids in front of her.

Xiao Qing and Xiao Miao hurriedly put on smiling faces and stepped forward to salute.

"Madam Du is well, servant girl Xiaoqing."

"Slave, Miao Miao."

Fang Wuniang suddenly woke up.

Miao?Isn't that the maid who followed Long Qiuye and helped Xiao Ruisheng steal and cover? !

This kind of person has a problem of conduct, how can he follow Xiao Shiji? !

Look at Xiaoqing again, she is fair and pink, with a beautiful nose and beautiful eyes. Although she is not as beautiful as her own daughter, she is still a lot more beautiful than ordinary women, and she is also a beauty embryo.The voice of speaking is even more delicate, and there is a lot of advance and retreat in the gestures, as if he has some knowledge.

Fang Wuniang's attention was focused on Xiaoqing, and she asked, "I haven't seen you before. Are you new here?"

Xiao Qing nodded with a smile, and was about to speak, when Xiao Miao hurriedly said: "Mrs. Du doesn't know something, this Xiao Qing was just bought by my wife from the market. I heard that he is also from a scholarly family, but his hometown has suffered a lot. In a flood, her father was drowned, and she and her mother were driven out by the tribe, and they fled to Chang'an. They came to visit relatives, but they could not be found, and the money was exhausted, so her mother took her to Chang'an. The market sells itself. Our wife saw that her mother was good at sewing and she was born clean, so she bought their mother and daughter together." Then she smiled, "Sister Xiaoqing signed a death contract, Du Fu You can rest assured."
