Chapter 62 New Name

Before Xiao Nan finished speaking, Cui Youbo's expression changed.

There is no other reason, the main reason is that he finally remembered that this small garden looked so familiar to Mao.Immediately afterwards, he remembered another thing. The Chenguang Courtyard is quite large, and the backyard alone is three or four acres in size.But the backyard is already at the end of Chenguangyuan, so where is there anything else?
Here, here is clearly the small side courtyard that he hastily chose near the Chenguang courtyard after he and Xiao Nan quarreled, which is also known as the 'inner study' to the outside world.

As for why he didn't find a place farther away, the reason is also very simple. Although the Cui family is big, the family has not been separated for three generations, and there are many descendants in the family. The yard is the limit.

Even if Cui Youbo is favored by his parents, it is impossible to occupy another yard on the basis of the original yard.

But the small side courtyard is different, it is said to be a side courtyard, but it is actually just a small garden plus a few verandahs.

Originally, when Cui Youbo 'run away from home', he didn't bring many people with him, just a few maidservants and two housekeepers, and the total number of masters and servants was no more than ten.

Except that he, Mu Jin and Fu Rong lived in a room each, the other girls shared a room.

Later, in order to avoid Xiao Nan, Cui Youbo even dug the road between the backyard of Chenguangyuan and the small garden into a pond, separating the two courtyards.In this way, if Xiao Nan wants to trouble Mujin and others, he has to go out from the main entrance of Chenguang Courtyard, and then make a long detour before arriving at the Small Side Courtyard. He was very excited about his wisdom.

Who would have thought that such an ingenious arrangement, such an ideal place far away from dominatrixes, would be taken away by Xiao Nan with ease.

Even the water pool that was used as a barrier was cleverly used by Xiao Nan to build a so-called Liushui Pavilion, using him as an excuse to silence everyone—— Liushui Pavilion was one of Cui Youbo's several opinions. One, Xiao Nan was just following her husband's wishes.

Awow, so heartbroken, so depressed, well, I really want to die.

Cui Youbo stood in front of the window in a daze, with a very strange expression, neither smiling nor crying, making people want to laugh.

With his head down, Xiao Nan tried his best to hold back the gushing smile, moved his mouth, and managed to bring the corners of his mouth back to the normal arc.

She raised her head and said with a little uneasiness: "What? Langjun, you, are you angry? Are you blaming me for demolishing your study? I, I didn't do it on purpose. We really don't have any spare time in Chenguang Academy." In the yard. Especially to build the Liushui Pavilion, there must be mountains and waters. I asked Qin's mother to run all over the yard, but I still couldn't find a suitable one, so—"

Cui Youbo opened his mouth, finally seemed to have figured something out, lowered his head in a slumped manner, and said, "Oh, I don't blame you, and I'm not angry either. You, Qiao Mu, you've done a good job, really good."

Yuzhu on the side heard it, and murmured softly, "Of course the county lord is fine. In order to put that small side courtyard into the Chenguang courtyard, the county lord paid the young lady a hundred gold."

Although the Cui family is not separated, the layout of the courtyard is fixed and no one is allowed to change it.

Of course, if you really want to make some changes, such as enclosing the open space near your yard, such as replacing a lonely corner in your yard with a better corner, for example... as long as the change is not too big, the head of the house will not Will refuse, but also have to pay the corresponding price.

In layman's terms, I just want to circle a garden and come in, no problem, bring the gold! (Datang produced very little silver, so silver was not used as currency in circulation.)
"Yuzhu, shut up! It's becoming more and more outrageous, what nonsense are you talking about in front of the master?" Xiao Nan hurriedly scolded, and said to the maids serving in the pavilion with a straight face, "There is one more thing, I am in front of everyone. Let me make it clear once and for all, from today onwards, when you are at home, don’t call me the county lord. When you are married, you will be your husband. Since I am married to Mr. Balang, I will be the eighth young lady of the Cui family. From now on, everyone will call me Mrs. Ba Shao or Ba Niangzi, do you remember?"

Yuzan and Yuzhu looked at each other in blank dismay, they didn't know what the county lord was doing.

However, out of trust in the county lord, they felt that there must be a reason for the county lord's request, so they just obeyed, and hurriedly winked at the second-class girls around them, and in an instant, seven or eight people gathered together She nodded and said, "Yes, Mrs. Eighth Young Master!"

Xiao Nan nodded in satisfaction, and then said to Cui Youbo, "Mr. Lang, I don't often go to the outer study, so please tell the servants who serve there. From now on, everyone will call me Mrs. Ba Shao." , county master or something, don’t mention it when you’re at home.”

Cui Youbo was a little surprised, he always thought that Xiao Nan's greatest pride was that he was named county head at a young age.In the past, I could not wait to put the word "county master" on my lips every day (a certain Nannu: it was all the rumors spread by this lowly servant girl Mu Jin), if someone called her Mrs. Ba Shao, even if she didn't turn her face, she would be upset (a certain Nan was speechless : Please, any first wife will feel ridiculed when she hears Xiaosan calling her official code name in a strange voice.)
Feeling puzzled, Cui Youbo didn't refuse, and nodded, indicating that he would notify.

Then, Xiao Nan turned his head to look at Qiu's mother again, "Mom, please report back to the old lady, and also tell this matter to the chief steward of the inner courtyard... I hope that I will meet other servants in the future." At that time, there will be no servants calling me the county lord."

Mother Qiu's dim old eyes flickered, and she nodded swiftly: "Yes, Madam Eighth Young Master!"

……

After visiting the new courtyard, Xiao Nan and his wife returned to the central hall.

Xiao Nan ordered the four concubines to be summoned.

After a while, four fifteen or sixteen-year-old ladies, dressed in the uniform blue color of the Cui family, knelt down in front of Xiao Nan and Cui Youbo's bed.

"Lang Jun, this is Jin Zhi," Xiao Nan pointed to a slender lady on the far right, and introduced: "She is from Korea, she is 15 years old, and she is the best at melody."

Jin Zhi kowtowed and saluted, and said in extremely fluent Chinese: "Nu Jinzhi, I have met your lord, my lady."

Uncle Cui Youbo looked at Xiao Nan blankly.

Xiao Nan ignored him and continued to introduce, "Her name is Yuye, she is 16 years old this year. She is from Wan'an County. Her family has been farming for generations. Her family background is clean and she can read a few words."

Yu Ye is taller than Jin Zhi, and her face is much more beautiful. She also touched her forehead to the ground, "Nu Yu Ye, send your greetings to Mrs. Lang and his wife."

"This is Bisi, a barbarian, 15 years old this year, the best at singing and dancing." Xiao Nan continued to introduce, pointing to the beautiful foreign woman with snow skin and blue eyes.

"Nubis, send greetings to your husband and wife." Also fluent in Chinese, Bisi had a humble attitude and obediently saluted and greeted her.

Cui Youbo met those eyes that looked like the blue waves of the lake, his heart beat faster, and he couldn't help but licked his chapped lips—the sages said it well, food and sex are also good!

Xiao Nan didn't seem to notice Cui Youbo's gaffe, and pointed to the last little lady, and said, "This is Fei Yi, she is 14 years old this year, a native of Suzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, and is the best at poetry and prose."

"Nu Feiyi, I have met Mrs. Lang and his wife." With Wu Nong's soft tone, Fei Yi also kowtowed to salute.

The Adam's apple rolled again, and Cui Youbo said in an unnatural tone: "Qiao Mu, what the hell is going on? They? They—" He had somewhat guessed the identities of these four beautiful women, but he still wanted to be verified.

Xiao Nan smiled and said: "Your Majesty also knows that I am pregnant now, Mujin made a mistake and was sent to another industry by the Da Furen, and Furong doesn't know how to serve your Majesty. These four concubines are my concubines. They were specially found for your lord, and they will serve you in the future, so please don't dislike them."

dislike?What are you kidding?
It's not that the brain is flooded, who would dislike these four beauties who are both talented and beautiful? !

Compared with Mu Jin, Jin Zhi and the other four who were born in a family, the specially trained kabuki is more attractive to men, especially Cui Youbo, who is well protected by his parents and rarely comes into contact with erotic occasions.

However, Cui Youbo is a well-educated person after all, it is impossible for him to be like those impatient and hungry ghosts who have never seen the world, and his brain freezes when he sees a beautiful lady. Probe: "Qiao Mu, you are pregnant now, and it is time for me to take good care of you. How can I... Besides, A Weng also said that now is the time to work hard and make achievements. How can I do it for these things? A waste of energy?"

Insincere!
Xiao Nan snorted coldly in his heart, but his face was still full of smiles, and said: "I said to Auntie yesterday that schoolwork cannot be completed overnight, didn't the ancients also say that the way of civil and martial arts is one step at a time? , Hehe, I know that Mr. Lang has great ambitions, but while working hard, you can't ignore the things in life."

Cui Youbo was still refusing.

Xiao Nan said again: "Lang Jun's refusal, do you still blame me for being unvirtuous before? Or do you think I deliberately tested you this time? Lang Jun, I did do many wrong things in the past, but my heart is not It’s not bad, look, I’ve yelled and killed so many times, aren’t Mujin and Furong all good? If I’m really vicious, I won’t be tricked by Mujin and almost lose our little man What about you?"

Seeing Xiao Nan's sincerity, Cui Youbo felt relieved, knowing that she had really changed this time, he half-pushed and accepted the four girls.

Then, Cui Youbo talked about the topic just now, "Just now Qiao Mu mentioned hibiscus, I, I have something—"

Mother Qiu interrupted Cui Youbo's words, she came to the couch of the two of them, bowed her bow and said solemnly: "There is something that I feel is inappropriate, after much deliberation, I should tell my husband and wife."

Cui Youbo was taken aback, "What's the matter?" Mother Qiu is someone close to the old lady, so he has to give this face.

"Although Hibiscus was sent to Bieye, she is still a servant of the Cui family, so she should follow the rules of the Cui family," Qiu's mother said with an upright face, 'faithful advice' reminded: "Her name violates the taboo of the lady, and she should follow the rules of the Cui family." Change your name!"
