Chapter 74

The old lady didn't expect her to come today, she turned around and looked at her, "You are here, Xia Mansion sent a post today, probably to discuss Xia Jing's marriage, I thought it wouldn't take long to ask you, if you are here It's okay, let's go together!"

Li Wan's whole body was stiff, and she turned her head unnaturally. Jiang's mother gave the old lady a golden collar and glanced at her, blocking the old lady's eyes, and didn't notice the sudden change in Li Wan's face.

The old lady thought that Li Wan was still beckoning Xia Qingqing and Qin Muyin, so she didn't tell her. Seeing that her face was not very good, she sighed in her heart, "You should stay at the mansion. Muyin told me about my mansion two days ago. It is always inconvenient not to have a sewing room, if you want to be free, you can spare two rooms in the Huaxianyuan for the embroidery lady!"

Li Wan was stunned. Ever since she was a child, every stitch and thread on Qin Muyin's body was the work of the old lady and Jiang's mother. The embroiderer in the sewing room had either received other errands or left the house. She didn't expect that the old lady would have to do it again today. Xiu Niang please enter the mansion, or put it in the Huaxian courtyard, she nodded subconsciously, "Understood!"

The old lady's words were all for her own sake. The nanny is old, and although she is good at needlework, her hands and feet are slow. She doesn't know where the old lady knew that she needed a embroiderer. The kindness for the old lady warmed her heart. Holding the old lady's arm, she said softly, "Come back early, I'll make two dishes you like for dinner!"

The old lady said yes, and Li Wan walked them to the door, trying not to meet Jiang's eyes.

When I returned to Huaxian Courtyard, Quan Fu was already waiting there. Quan Fu was the butler of the mansion when the old Lord Hou was here. After running around, she found out that there was a sold-out elder sister of Quan Fu's family who was working in the palace. Later, when she returned to Beijing, all the more than 100 people in the Hou Mansion were killed, and Quan Fu also died.

Li Wan has never met that person in the palace, but according to Quan Fu's age, his sister is still in the palace and has not been released from the palace, which shows that her position in the palace is not low.

Quanfu is in his 40s this year. He is middle-aged and fat, with a slightly protruding belly and a beard on his chin. He walks maturely and steadily on the road. He does not have the temperament of a servant at all.

Li Wan said her request, just be honest, and the people in the house are good, although she concealed the original intention of wanting to be a servant, but she also told the truth, her dowry Zhuangzi needs a person in charge.

In the afternoon, Quan Fu brought two people here, Li Wan asked them a few words, they were both smart and smart, when Li Wan asked their names, the two stopped talking, Li Wan looked at Quan Fu strangely.

Quan Fu replied, "Their future master will be Madam you, and Madam will decide the name!" Quan Fu's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, without too much fawning and flattery, and even took out the contract of prostitution between the two of them, Li Wan felt strange , Quan Fu seemed to know the doubts in her heart, and explained leisurely, "Quan An came back and specially sent the two people's deeds of sale back. The two used to work in Zhuangzi, and their parents are also old people in the house. Madam doesn't need to Worry about the others!"

Quan Fu didn't finish talking, the two were Quan Ping's cousins, they had been working in Zhuangzi before, they knew some kung fu, and Quan An had the key to the study, so he directly told him about these two people at noon.

Li Wan was dubious, without any other emotion on her face, and asked the two, "What were your names before?"

The two lowered their heads, one of them opened his mouth first, "All slaves come"

"The Complete Book of Minions!"

Li Wan glanced at Quan Shu, Quan Fu meant that the two of them followed her, and their name was Hou Mansion, for fear of being gossiped about, and she was in charge of her dowry Zhuang Zi, Li Wan thought, "Why don't we call Yi Jiu?" , twenty-nine!"

The two kowtowed to Li Wan, and they will be called [-] from now on.Li Wan didn't think too much about choosing the name, she just read it nicely, asked Yijiu to manage Zhuangzi, ordered Zilan to take Erjiu down, and arranged a room for him in the outer courtyard. Li Wan had to figure out what to do specifically.

After taking the contract of selling their lives for the two of them, Li Wan hurriedly went to Jing'an Courtyard. Qin Muyin came back late tonight, and she had to cook two side dishes for the old lady.

And the palace on the other side was not peaceful either. Emperor Renhe sat at the top, and his face changed when he heard the report from the Shaoqing of Dali Temple below. The person who ruined the reputation of the wife of Beiyanhou Mansion in the past few days is the man from the Chang Gongzhu Mansion. Shu Yan found out that there is a relationship between the Minister of the Ministry of Justice and the Queen Mother. The Minister of the Ministry of Justice has a concubine who is a maid in the uncle's mansion. My concubine, I found out a lot of things about the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. It turned out that when several prisoners escaped from prison that day, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice sent two bottles of wine to the prison. After that, the officials were no longer unconscious. The number of Shangshu is not many. That night, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment said that he went to the prison to inspect and rewarded him with wine. Of course they were happy. Here is the night when several prison inmates committed suicide in fear of crime. At that time, there was a father-in-law following them. The officials had never seen the father-in-law, so they roughly talked about how they dressed.

"Your Majesty, everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can call the officials in the prison and you will find out if you ask!"

The eldest princess sitting below her complexion turned purple. She wanted to refute several times but was glared back by the emperor's ruthless eyes. On the other hand, the eldest princess' son-in-law, Chu Yu, seemed not to care about anything.

Shu Yan kowtowed two more times, "I have already asked, after the eunuch who left the palace that night, Eunuch Hai next to the queen mother, the emperor, the emperor committed the same crime as the common people, not to mention, it was the fate of several people, the queen mother How could they have feuded with those people in the palace for many years? It can be seen that it must be for whom they will act. Besides, those few people have been clamoring to see the eldest son-in-law before their lives, and the lives of seven members of the family, the emperor, the capital is full of excitement Pass on this matter, give them an explanation!"

The corner of Qin Muyin's mouth twitched. Shu Yan was in his late thirties, and he spoke as if he had been in the officialdom for many years. The Shu family was well-known in Beijing, and Shu Yan was the most talented. What I said just now was impeccable. The eldest princess caused a lot of trouble for the Shu family a few days ago, and I'm afraid that Shu Yan really hated her.
