lying down

Seeing the atmosphere of Di's mansion, I thought that it would be a good place for my second brother to be the deputy housekeeper in this mansion.Just looking at the momentum of this house, it is indeed a place where money and power gather.

Ouyang Yu stepped forward, and was about to ask the gatekeeper if he could let him know.

"Who are you?!" A fat servant on the left side of the gate took a step forward and asked sharply.

Ouyang Yu thought to himself, can't you keep your voice down?Grandpa is not deaf, so he immediately thought that the second elder brother was working here, so it would be inconvenient to cause trouble, fearing that it would affect the second elder brother, so he held back his anger and replied: "I'm here to find a relative, he works in your mansion."

When the fat servant heard that he was looking for relatives, he put his arms around his chest and sneered. He turned to look at the tall and thin servant on the right side of the door and said, "Monkey, here comes another one!"

The servant called "Monkey" didn't even look at Ouyang Yu and said with a smile: "Hey, Fat Shan, this is a helpless thing, whoever makes our Di mansion rich, it's nothing more than climbing the door, there are always so many people every day A few blind people came to pretend to be relatives, and they didn't feel too tired to panic."

"Who says it's not, but it's not good if there are no such people. You and I guard this gate every day, and we don't have the fun of where they come from. Do you think it makes sense?" They looked serious, as if they had encountered some happy event, and the two talked to each other, completely ignoring Ouyang Yu, a living person.

It's good that Ouyang Yu didn't listen, but he was so angry that he couldn't bear it anymore, he wanted to go up and teach these two low-minded men, but he didn't want to be so angry that he lost so much anger, so he laughed casually .

"Hey, it's really strange. This pretending to be a relative is still smiling when he climbs the door. He doesn't look at how shabby he is. He also imitates others. He doesn't take pictures of himself in the urine, just to see what he looks like!" Fat Shan saw Ouyang Yun could still laugh when he scolded, but he was upset.

"I urinate every day. If you want, grandpa rides on your head and urinates in your mouth. It's just that your 'urinal' is so big that grandpa can't bear it!", seeing two doors Ding didn't intend to shut up, and Ouyang Yu didn't have a good temper either. He always adhered to the principle of "an eye for an eye, an eye for an eye, and an eye for an eye", so he teased this fat servant .

Hearing this, the monkey walked up to Fat Shan, rolled up his sleeves, bulged his skinny arms, pointed at Ouyang and scolded: "Yeah, come here and pretend to be a master!" It's gone! I wasn't going to spend more time talking with you, but I thought you'd retreat in shame, so I didn't think I'd get any more energy."

"Come, come, let me hear you say that you are ugly and good-looking, but you can't say that you want to look good!" Fat Shan saw that the thin monkey was helping, and he also uttered wild words, pretending to be powerful.

"Li Zhengyu and Li Erlang, are you the deputy steward of the Di Mansion?" Ouyang Yu was patient, but anger was already rising in his voice.

Fat Shan and Thin Monkey looked at each other, a little surprised in their hearts, but the name and position in the newspaper were correct. Could it be that they really came to find relatives?But having said that, Li Zhengyu's deputy housekeeper is not very popular in Di's mansion. The two of them are supported by the big housekeeper Di Yong. Usually it's just that the well water does not interfere with the river water. There are also factions in the Di mansion.

Fat Shan accepted the teasing appearance, half-believing and half-questioning: "There is a deputy housekeeper Li Zhengyu in the mansion, but how do you prove that he is your relative?

It was clear that they were strangers who bullied Ouyang Yu, they were originally gatekeepers, and their job was to guard the gate and guard the courtyard, and pass on the news to Tongbao, but now they are here to ask Ouyang Yu how to prove it.They only need to go in and make a report, and they can distinguish themselves.

"I'll use this to prove it!" Ouyang Yu didn't talk nonsense anymore, raised his big fist, stepped up the steps, and wanted to beat up the two of them.

"Squeak~" The big red wooden door made the sound of the hinges turning, and another man who looked like a servant slowly pushed the door open, all three of them looked over, but it was Ouyang Yu's second brother Li Zhengyu who came out.

"What are you going to do! Back off!" Erlang glanced at the situation in front of him, and he could think of what was going on with his toes.The two servants in front of them are also descendants of the old man of the Di Mansion. They have been servants in the mansion all their lives by virtue of their fathers. It was covered up.

When Fat Mountain Thin Monkey saw the deputy housekeeper coming out, he was angry, and obediently retreated without saying a word. The county magistrate might as well take care of it now.

Erlang hurriedly took a few steps to support Ouyang Yu's shoulder, and said, "Balang, why are you here? How is your family?"

Ouyang Yu stopped in his tracks, glared at Fat Mountain and Skinny Monkey, and smiled at his second brother: "Second brother, there is nothing left and right, I came to Jinyang City to open my eyes, everything is fine at home."

The second brother turned around and asked, "I heard the commotion from inside the door just now, what's going on?!"

"Deputy housekeeper Li, I'm about to report to you, someone is looking for you!" The thin monkey took a step forward, cupped his hands and replied, with a humble appearance, but bit the word 'deputy' hard, while Fat Shan looked down at him with a pleasing look and raised his eyebrows. No thorns come out, I think I am watching a joke.

Ouyang Yu looked at the scene in front of him, and realized that the situation was not as satisfactory as he thought.

"Eighth brother, come with me." Erlang didn't want to make any fuss, and brought Ouyang Yu straight into the mansion.Passing through the front yard, one can see verdant trees and blooming exotic flowers, and a clear stream flows from the depths of the flowers and trees under the crevices of the rocks.After a few more steps, it gradually goes north, flat and wide, with flying buildings on both sides inserted into the air, carved and embroidered sills, all hidden among the trees in the depression.Looking down, you can see the jade flowing down the Qingxi River, the stone platforms piercing the clouds, the white stones as fences, surrounding the pond, and two stone bridges passing across the water.

The real water pavilions and terraces, the cornices and brackets!

Turn around twice more, walk along a curved corridor to the end, step over the arch, and see a few houses. "Presumably this is where the second brother lives in the mansion, the environment is not bad."As Ouyang Yu walked along, his mood gradually calmed down.

"Eighth Brother, this is the place where I temporarily live in the residence. Your sister-in-law and nephew both live in the small house in Jinyang City." After finishing speaking, he unlocked the door and entered the house, and walked in while holding Ouyang Yu's arm.

After the two sat down on their knees, there was no hot water in Erlang's room, and they were waiting for someone to bring it.Ouyang Yu waved his hand, picked up the teapot and poured it up: "Second brother, don't be so particular about it, cold water is cold water, I just rushed all the way, I'm very thirsty, but I can't drink hot water." After finishing speaking, he picked it up The teacup gulped down in one gulp.

After taking a sip of tea, he chatted with Erlang about some homework, and at the same time looked at Erlang's house furnishings.The room is very simple, with only some tables, chairs and benches, a single wooden bed, an old wardrobe, and no other household items.It sounds nice to say simplicity, but it can be called shabby. "Even if the second brother is just an assistant housekeeper, it's not that the hot water is not always available, and the decoration is so simple?" Ouyang Yu felt a little uncomfortable when he saw it.

Erlang has been dealing with people and things for many years, seeing Ouyang Yu's gaze and expression, he already understood what the eighth brother was thinking.With a long sigh, he said, "Eighth Brother, you and I are brothers, and I will not hide from you as a brother. This Di Mansion looks harmonious, but the mansion is full of open and secret strife, just like a small imperial court. Brother, although I am not the big housekeeper, I have to rely on my presence. In the years of the Di Mansion, there was no credit, but hard work. The second brother didn't want to hide it from you, but he didn't want you to enter this rich mansion and fight with some depraved people. Mother told you when she adopted you as a foster son However, my brother still has a small restaurant in his hand, if you don't want to go there, it's okay if my brother sends you off. It's far better than being angry here!"

Ouyang Yu was moved in his heart, this second elder brother told the truth today, but he didn't just care about face and hurt himself.He only thinks about himself, and he is not afraid of losing face. Based on this, he should do his best to help the second brother.

"Since the second brother is confiding in his heart, I, Ouyang Yu, might as well say it bluntly, I won't leave!" After finishing speaking, he looked at the second brother with a smile.

"You, why are you so ignorant? Second brother is doing it for your own good, do you understand?" Erlang felt a little anxious when he heard that Ouyang Yu refused to leave.

Ouyang Yu picked up the cold teapot, filled a cup for the second brother, and then said slowly: "Second brother, it's not that I don't understand the truth, I understand your situation! That's why I want to help you in this mansion. No matter what the errand is, I will Just do it, it doesn’t matter if it’s hard or tiring, we two brothers will work together to help you stabilize your position, I won’t be too late! My second brother must know a little about my skills, so don’t worry too much!”

Li Erlang lowered his head and turned around with the teacup in his hand, obviously thinking seriously about Ouyang Yu's words.He has been working as an assistant housekeeper in Di's Mansion for so many years, but he didn't run the Xiaojiu Restaurant. First, he wanted to guard against the family's enemies before, and second, he wanted to rely on his years of merit to find a family background. However, things backfired. Over the years, I still haven't got what I want.

"Since the eighth brother said so, it would be hypocritical for me not to agree, brother!" Erlang smiled relievedly, and accepted Ouyang Yu's suggestion.

Because the important position in Di's mansion had been taken long ago, he had to find Ouyang Yu a job as a nurse.Erlang took Ouyang Yu around the mansion again, identified the front and back yards, which places can be entered and which places cannot be entered, and there are some simple rules, such as registering in the accountant, and collaring clothes in the warehouse. A nurse in the government.
