lucky star girl

Chapter 94 Arrangement
As soon as Dong Shu heard Mrs. Xu's words, she understood what she meant. After she nodded to Mrs. Xu and agreed to the matter, Mrs. Xu said again: "I have already given the gift to the fifth prince's mansion and the Jiang family. Get ready. You can read the gift list later, learn it, and I will teach you next time."

Mrs. Xu didn't expect Dong Shu to be able to write the post in one go, so she didn't teach her about preparing gifts this time.

Hearing what old lady Xu said, Dong Shu had no objection, and just nodded obediently.

Xu Shiqiu saw that the little lady didn't speak anymore, and his mother didn't intend to speak, so he told Mrs. Xu what Xu Jun said today.

"This matter is indeed going to be done. I also want to invite your Uncle Xu Er's family to have a meal, and invite a few qualified people to witness it together." Naturally, the old lady Xu did not lie to Xu Er, and she also really wanted to be with Xu Er. Xu Er's family is connected.

What's more, now that Xu Shiqiu is doing things, Xu Er's descendants have helped him a lot, and she can't do things like throwing away after use.

"Mother, when do you think it's appropriate to arrange this matter? Zhuangzi is harvesting wheat these days, and I'm afraid he doesn't have time. Uncle Xu Er also has land at home, so he probably doesn't have time." Xu Shiqiu looked at the old lady Xu just now. After finishing speaking, she continued without waiting for the old lady Xu to speak: "I think the most important thing is to find out if Master Xuanling is free, besides meeting my sister and Yanzhu tomorrow."

Listening to Xu Shiqiu talking about Master Xuanling, Mrs. Xu guessed what he was thinking.

"Shiqiu, don't be in a hurry to see Master Xuanling." Mrs. Xu understood that Xu Shiqiu, as a man, was aggrieved by having to stay in the back house for so many years.

Now he may not want to make a big deal, but he is absolutely unwilling to hide behind his family when something happens.

In particular, he is definitely not willing to hide behind Dong Shu.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xu said directly: "When I see your sister in the future, I'll ask her if she knows anything about Master Xuanling. If she has news, Mom will help you make an appointment with Master Xuanling as soon as possible."

"Mother, it's a hard job for you." Xu Shiqiu didn't pretend to be hypocritical and said that he didn't want to say anything. The most urgent thing for him now is to meet the Xuanling master who gave him orders at the beginning, and ask him what is going on with his current situation. thing.

When he was young, he was clearly ordered to be the life of a boy. Could it be that the blessing of the little lady can really suppress his bad luck?

Dong Shu has been sitting at the side, she really wanted to say something, but thought of the extraordinary status of Master Xuanling, she hesitated for a long time, and finally she didn't say anything.

After Xu Shiqiu came back to his senses, he also noticed Dong Shu's hesitation. He wanted to ask the little lady for a moment, but he was worried that asking too much would affect her luck, so he held back in the end.

Dong Shu didn't know about Xu Shiqiu's entanglement. After she regained consciousness, Xu Shiqiu had put away the expression just now.

The two took Yuan Xi to Mrs. Xu's place for dinner, and then wandered back to Shihuan Courtyard with Yuan Xi in their arms.

As soon as she returned to Shihuan Courtyard, Dong Shu asked Ling Xiang to find her mother.

"Ma'am, wait a moment." When Ling Xiang heard that Dong Shu was going to call her mother, her eyes lit up, she quickly exited the room and walked quickly towards the room where her mother lived.

Looking at Ling Xiang's happy back, before the corners of Dong Shu's mouth raised, Xu Shiqiu had already driven her and said, "We will have to choose another servant to serve us tomorrow."

As soon as Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, Dong Shu turned to look at him in puzzlement.

"The maidservant next to you is Ling Xiang, and the housekeeper in the backyard is her mother. It's easy for them two to hide something from us." Although Xu Shiqiu didn't care about these things before, he still understood this simple truth.

Dong Shu didn't know this at first, but now she understood what Xu Shiqiu said.

She looked at Xu Shiqiu and wanted to speak, but when she heard footsteps outside the house, she hurriedly shut up and didn't speak again.

Wang Shi followed Ling Xiang into the room quickly, her footsteps were more steady than Ling Xiang's.

Ever since she returned to the capital, after Li said she would return to the main courtyard to serve, she guessed that she would be reused, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.

However, Mrs. Wang kept her head slightly lowered, and did not show her expression.

Dong Shu watched her appear, and said directly: "Tomorrow morning, you will go out with the people from your mother to the Fifth Prince's Mansion and Jiang's house to deliver posts." After saying this, thinking of the old lady Xu's explanation just now, Dong Shu continued Said: "Go to the storeroom to have a look later, choose two suitable gifts and bring them there together. Although Mother has already prepared the gifts, they were not prepared by us after all. Our good things are all sent by sister and Yanzhu, so You can choose the local products we brought from Xiahe Village, or buy them on the road."

Dong Shu's words were very clear. In fact, when she opened her mouth, Wang understood what she meant.

"Don't worry, ma'am." While nodding, Mrs. Wang respectfully replied to Dong Shu.

Seeing Mrs. Wang nodding her head confidently, Dong Shu continued to speak: "Mrs. Li will return to mother's place in two more days and continue to serve her. I will find another person to help you. In the future, if you add someone to the Huanyuan, you will also have to wait." You and Ling Xiang teach them the rules."

"Don't worry, ma'am." As soon as Wang Shi heard Dong Shu's words, she understood what she meant, and she was not dissatisfied.Because she understands that the backyard of Shi Huan Yuan cannot be completely handed over to their wives.

Ling Xiang also heard Dong Shu's words, and she wanted to speak.

But she also understands that the madam is talking to her mother now, and she can't interrupt.

So Ling Xiang could only keep these words in her heart, and was going to ask her mother after she left.

Dong Shu was very satisfied with Wang's attitude, and let her leave directly after saying two things.

After both Wang Shi and Ling Xiang left, Dong Shu looked at Xu Shiqiu and said, "Master, I think that besides servants, there are also young maids who need to be added. Now that Shi Huan Yuan is big, Ling Xiang is alone. I can't even clean it." After saying this, Dong Shu thought for a while and continued: "I still need to choose a few three- and four-year-old girls from Zhuangzi and the family's children."

As soon as Dong Shu finished speaking, Xu Shiqiu understood what she meant, "The lady wants to choose a little girl for Yuan Xi?"

"Well, find a few first and observe slowly. They have been raised with Yuan Xi since they were young, and they will definitely be loyal to Yuan Xi in the future."

Dong Shu will understand this matter, and the old lady Xu only knew about it when Xu Yanzhu was preparing a dowry last time, when Xu's family left Beijing and Xu Yanzhu sneaked away from her personal servant girl.

When Xu Yanzhu was young, there were two little girls who grew up together, two or three years older than her.

Since Yan Zhu had it, her Yuan Xi should have it too.

Dong Shu now has more and more the mentality of being the wife of a wealthy family, unlike at the beginning, she feels that it is not good to serve people.

She felt that she could use fewer people to serve her, but her family Yuanxi must have these.

Xu Shiqiu also agreed with Dong Shu's words very much, "Then remember this matter, and we will choose the candidates together." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu sighed regretfully: "It's a pity that Uncle Xu's granddaughters are all young. Appropriate, otherwise one will go home and raise them together, Yuan Xi also has sisters of the same age to play with."

Dong Shu didn't think as much as Xu Shiqiu, but she still nodded along with Xu Shiqiu, and then said: "If you don't have one, you don't. It doesn't matter if you just choose the little girl from the two villages or the little girl from the family."

Yuan Xi's nanny gave birth to a son, otherwise a little girl of similar age would have accompanied Yuan Xi.

"Then let's take note of this matter and arrange it when we have time." Xu Shiqiu watched Dong Shu say this, and after seeing her nod, he continued: "Lady, according to the habit, I will give my sister and sister tomorrow morning. Yan Zhu sent the post, and in the afternoon I will prepare for the day when they come."

Dong Shu nodded immediately after hearing Xu Shiqiu's words.

Seeing Dong Shu nodding, Xu Shiqiu continued meaningfully: "So lady, we should go to bed earlier tonight, otherwise you will definitely not be energetic tomorrow." Xi, said: "Yuan Xi should be carried by her nanny tonight, otherwise she will trouble you at night, and you won't be able to sleep well."

What Xu Shiqiu said was so grand that Dong Shu wanted to nod subconsciously after hearing his words.

But in the next moment, Dong Shu suddenly remembered what happened last night.

"Forget it, Yuan Xi will sleep with us tonight, I want to take her to sleep." Dong Shu said while avoiding Xu Shiqiu's eyes.

Xu Shiqiu guessed Dong Shu's thoughts as soon as she heard her words, and understood that he must be afraid that he would eat up Yuanxi's food because of what happened last night.

It's just that he has already tasted it once, and it is really difficult for him to give up.
