The Blessing of Traveling to Pregnancy

Chapter 62

The news that Lin Yuanhui was going back to the mansion quickly spread. Although Xu's also laughed with everyone, he felt a little uncomfortable after all.Lin Yuanhui was the eldest son of a concubine, and his mother, Mrs. Liu, was sickly. She suffered a lot when she gave birth to Lin Yuanhui, and passed away after a few years.

Mrs. Xu is Lin Yuanhui's mother in name. Like all housewives, she is kind to the eldest son, but she is just kind.Faced with such a situation, most of the bastards in the nearby mansion relied on their ancestors to donate a small official or open a shop.But Lin Yuanhui obviously didn't want to live such an ordinary life. It just so happened that Lin Shangshu's eldest brother, General Yunhui, needed a helper in the border town three years ago. Lin Yuanhui, who was only 14 years old at the time, volunteered to go to the border to help his uncle.Now Lin Yuanhui has come back after three years of experience in the border town, and Xu's son, Lin Yuanye, is only seven years old this year. With such an elder brother, he has to be warned.

"My uncle's house needs to be cleaned up quickly, and those who are in need go to the account to pay the money and buy it quickly." Xu arranged the manpower, even if he didn't like the eldest son, he had to help him clean up the house.

"Mother, when will the big brother come back?" Lin Yuanye didn't have much hostility towards this big brother, he just thought that his big brother went to the border to fight the enemy, he was a man with a real knife, and the seven-year-old little Zhengtai immediately established the image of a great hero in his heart appearance.

"About four days later." Mrs. Xu took the time to stop, "Did you finish your homework?"

Lin Yuanye hesitated and looked left and right.Seeing his appearance, Mrs. Xu immediately stopped fighting, and it's okay to fool around, but now that Lin Yuanhui is back, if you are compared to him, where will you put your face!Lin Yuanye saw Xu's face darken immediately, and immediately slid off the chair in fright, and said cowardly: "Son, I'm going to study now, and I'll go back now."

"Hurry up and warm up everything the teacher taught me. I will check it tonight!"

"Yes, my son understands." Lin Yuanye went back with a sad face.

Mrs. Xu sighed, and leaned back with her neck slightly raised.Zhao's mother came over with ginseng tea and said comfortingly: "Madam, the young master is still young."

"Small? Yuanhui could draw a bow and shoot arrows when he was his age."

"Look at what you said, uncle likes riding and archery, and now it's reasonable to go to the border town to help uncle. Our second master is going to be a scholar-bureaucrat in the future, and he won't be a general. Besides, even if uncle has some clues , we can’t get rid of a common character. Our second master is still young, and the master just told him the day before yesterday that the second master’s homework has always been worry-free, madam, don’t worry too much.”

Mrs. Xu took the ginseng tea and took it away when she put it to her mouth.It's not that she doesn't understand what mother Zhao said, but she really can't calm down now.Her son is her lifeblood, and she will never allow any accidents to happen to him, absolutely!
"Go and call all the maids and servants who have served the uncle before. If the uncle is not at home, I'm afraid they will all be lazy!"

Mother Zhao looked embarrassed: "This..."

Xu raised her eyelids slightly, and changed her tone: "Huh?"

Mother Zhao said with a dry smile: "Two of the servants who served the uncle in the past went to the border town with the uncle. Now there are only three maids left in the mansion, one of whom was assigned to the servants of the mansion last year, and two more Because of being lazy at work, he was punished and sent to the kitchen to help the cook."

Having said that, Mrs. Xu remembered.Three years ago, she took advantage of Lin Yuanhui to go to the border town, and there was a big change in the mansion.Those who were restless and petty were dealt with one by one, and the older maids were matched with marriages along the way.

"From today to tomorrow, you choose ten maids and five servants in the mansion. I will choose again after dinner tomorrow."

"Yes, servant girl will go to do it now." Mother Zhao took the errand, talked to Mrs. Xu for a while, and then went to do the errand.

As soon as he went out, he met Zhang's mother who came out of the small kitchen.Mama Zhang twisted her round waist and walked up to her, "Mother Zhao, where are you going in a hurry?"

"Isn't this uncle coming back? I just received an errand from my wife to put things back for my uncle."

Mother Zhang nodded with a smile, untied the pouch on her waist and handed it over, "Taste the five-spice melon seeds just out of the pot." Mother Zhao pushed back, "My hands are dirty now."

"What are you afraid of being dirty?" After finishing speaking, he put the small bag directly on Zhao's mother's hand, "Now the house is busy up and down, and I am idle, so I just stand at the entrance of the kitchen every day, smelling the fragrance. .”

Zhao's mother kept eating from Zhang's mother on weekdays, and she admired Zhang's mother from the bottom of her heart-this old woman was as small as melon seeds and candies as big as antler and abalone.I don't know how those stingy people in the kitchen let her take advantage of it? !

"You see, you have received an errand, and you are so busy that your feet don't touch the ground, but I have become an idler."

"Isn't it good to be free?" Zhao's mother was short-tempered, "I wish I could be free, so that my sister and I can eat some melon seeds and chat."

Zhang’s mother narrowed her small eyes on her fleshy face, “It’s a good relationship! But I’m afraid that you, a busy person, won’t be able to take time off once you get busy. Why don’t you tell me what you need to do, and the eldest sister will help you with it.” , as the saying goes, the three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang."

Mother Zhao thought to herself: You're finally getting to the point!

But this errand is not a secret. If Zhang's mother is younger and more than 20 years old, and her figure is slimmer, maybe she will be more careful.But the other party obviously came over with the appearance of a warm-hearted old lady, even if she wanted to play tricks, she would send it to the uncle's house anyway.

After thinking this through, Mother Zhao immediately took Mother Zhang's hand with a face of relief, and said with great emotion: "It's still a big girl who is thoughtful. In fact, this matter is not difficult to deal with. The key is that Madam's time is too tight. gone."

"No hurry, just tell me what it is."

Two people from the mansion with their own thoughts went to the small courtyard behind.Mother Zhao arrived at the tea, sat down, and then said: "Isn't the uncle coming back? The manpower in the grandfather's courtyard is short, so the madam asked me to find them out today and tomorrow. You also know that the uncle has been rare in recent years." When I come back, if I get a few sleazy maids to go there, Madam won’t be able to justify it, I’m afraid even the master will blame me! Hey, I don’t know how the master has been living outside these years, and I can’t figure out his habit. It's not easy either."

Zhang's mother said: "Since this is the case, then you have to be careful when picking people."

"That's not it." After what she said just now, Mother Zhao suddenly realized that it might be a bit difficult to pick up the servant girl's errand.

"Maybe it's not difficult." Zhang's mother tapped the wooden table slightly, "Anyway, the uncle will only come back for a few days. I heard that the uncle came back this time to celebrate the reunion with his wife and the second is to send the general of the border town The third is to take a look at the second girl's marriage. I will go back after the new year, and it is definitely too late to train the manpower at this time. Why don't you pick a few capable maids from each house and courtyard to serve on the left and right? It's only January."

"This is a way, but... can it work?" The big maids in the courtyard of the mansion are all easily handled by the masters, so how could it be so easy to obey her orders.The big maids are energetic and capable enough, but the servants also know that these little girls who have been in the position of big maids are all the people on the top of the master's heart, and they are sent to serve the uncle. If they serve well, it is the face of the original master. Shang Guang, if the service is not good... Ouch, what a slap in the face!
"Why can't it work? If the servant girl serves the master, it's hard to pick who the master is first!" Mother Zhang sipped her tea and sighed, "Well, I'll go back and talk to our fourth girl. If the fourth girl takes the lead in answering your request My idea, if you want to come to other courtyards, you don’t dare to refuse!" That's why the identity of the descendant is good, hehehehe...

Zhao's mother was fooled successfully, and after thanking Zhang's mother, she began to carry out the intense work of selecting people.Zhang's mother also got up and went back to the courtyard. Seeing that Qingmei was staring at the picture of beauties playing in the water more than two months ago in a daze, she quietly walked to her side, but unexpectedly she was discovered before she got close, so she couldn't help but smile.

Qing Mei glanced at her, didn't care, and continued to lower her head and ponder how to write.

Mother Zhang approached and said, "Miss, uncle will be back in four days."

Qingmei nodded, indicating that she knew.

Ms. Zhang knows her temperament. If you don’t finish speaking in one breath, she will definitely talk to you slowly. She immediately said: "Uncle has been away from home for three years, and the manpower in the yard is desperately short. My wife asked Mrs. Zhao to go now. I'm looking for maids, I'll see if the maids in our courtyard can give some to the uncle for a while, and they will only serve for a month."

Qingmei raised her eyes, and without thinking about it, she said immediately: "Then Lan Xin, she has been staying in the mansion with quick hands and feet, and she has seen the uncle before, so she can't be more suitable."

Zhang's mother was overjoyed, and nodded heavily: "Hey!" At the critical moment, the lady didn't stay still!Whispering in his ear, he explained to Qingmei the next steps, how to successfully get rid of Lan Xin from his wife.

That night, Qingmei went to Mrs. Xu's house according to Mama Zhang's instructions. It happened that the maid next to Mrs. Xu came out of the house, and when she saw Qingmei coming, she immediately smiled and said, "It's a coincidence, madam is thinking of you, girl, hurry up." come in."

Seeing Mrs. Xu, Qingmei felt that this beautiful woman smiled a little differently today. She blinked, maybe she was dazzled—even if Lin Yuanhui came back, you don't have to be so happy...

Naturally there was a reason for Mrs. Xu to be happy. Just after dinner, she received a post from the Eldest Princess, saying that she invited Qingmei to the Princess Mansion to enjoy the flowers.Mrs. Xu kept an eye out, and asked if there was anyone else in the flower feast.The answer she got almost made her cry out happily - "The flowers exhibited by the eldest princess this time are very delicate, so I didn't invite too many people..."

Apart from Qingmei, only five princesses were invited.

This is a naked family feast!Can Mrs. Xu not be happy!
Because of this reason, Qingmei's proposal to let Lan Xin go to wait on the uncle temporarily tonight also passed very smoothly.Xu also ordered Mother Zhao to take out several pieces of jewelry from the bottom of the box and handed them to Qingmei, and told Mother Zhang behind her to dress her up well for the flower banquet two days later, and not to make any troubles like the previous one. Accident!
Qingmei was a little dizzy from them, until she returned to the yard, she still asked blankly: "Why? Why is this?" Last time she made a big fuss about the eldest princess's flower banquet, she actually wanted to invite herself again!Is it possible that everyone surnamed Xie has a tendency to masochistic? !

Mother Zhang saw that she couldn't explain clearly to her, so she didn't say anything at all, but said: "My lady, I have already said that your luck is not small! Don't worry about the next few days. Cool breeze, take care Dress up the lady and choose some clothes."

At this time, on the official road three hundred miles away from the capital, two fast horses galloped past.

Lin Yuanhui yelled: "I'm going to the capital soon. My second sister is getting married this year. That kid surnamed Wang is simply a blessing from my previous life!" Beside him was a tall and straight man, passing by The wind and rain in the border town, the skin is a healthy wheat color, the deep eyes are staring at the front, the corners of the mouth are slightly curved: "Congratulations, you have said this sentence no less than [-] times along the way."

"Really, huh? Haha, hahaha..." Lin Yuanhui stopped talking and hurried on his way wholeheartedly.Home, he will be home soon!Although there are no close relatives in that family, there is still a sister who cares about him, and that's enough.
