The Zhou Mansion has been very busy preparing for the banquet these days.
Because the banquet preparations were held in the back garden, there were all the low-level maids and rough ladies from all over the house.
The boys all went to the back garden to tidy up, clean, and build flowers, plants, trees, etc.
Hexiangyuan is also very lively, with maids coming and going from time to time.
Mrs.
Zhou was sitting on the huanghuali wood imperial concubine couch in the Nuan Pavilion, and the screen embroidered with Buddha lotus pictures was temporarily folded.
Threads floated from the golden incense burner on the side The amber incense smoke, together with the light incense smoke from the Buddhist niche on the east wall, diluted the fragrance of the orioles and swallows in the room a lot.
"Mother Mo, I'm not talking about you.
As a mother, you can't even fit a maid into Xu'an's courtyard.
Do you still want me to hand over the Zhou family's backyard to you?"
Mr.
Zhou The lady said calmly without even raising her eyelids.
"Mom, there is nothing my wife can do.
Xu An, the maid she arranged before, didn't accept it.
It's so easy to arrange two."
Mrs.
Zhou Liu said but couldn't continue. , and besides, she felt useless.
Xu An is really surprised this week.
Nuo has a big courtyard and doesn't even need a maid to serve him.
"What's wrong?"
Mrs.
Zhou asked.
"He also said that the two maids had given the ladies' names, so he changed their names and sent them to the small kitchen.
The two maids had been carefully trained by the wife and were the best at serving them.
People.
Moreover, one was named Hong Ling and the other was Lv E, which was too much for the young lady.
As a result, they were renamed Xiao Hong and Xiao Lu and sent to the kitchen. he That small kitchen may not open fire once a year.
Isn't this a disguised form of rejection?"
Ms.
Zhou Liu was really troubled by this.
"Oh, sister, what you said is wrong.
The eldest young master is out talking about business and I haven't seen any stunning women.
You just drag out two ordinary-looking third-class maids from the courtyard.
Don't talk about the eldest young master.
Even I don’t like it.
Aunt Luo on the side said quickly.
She wanted to put Xia He and Qiu Ju in her yard.
Went to the eldest young master’s yard.
If one of them falls in love with the eldest young master and gets an aunt, you still have to thank her.
There was nothing she could do.
Ever since her daughter Mengchan got married and the master was addicted to alchemy and Taoism, she had no status in the Zhou Mansion.
Not only have there been fewer monthly visits, Occasionally, if I want to cook bird's nest porridge in the small kitchen, I have to report it to that damn Liu Moniang.
"What do you want to say?"
Liu Moniang snorted coldly.
"I'm telling you, Madam.

Old Madam.
The Xia He and Qiu Ju in front of me are both very good-looking.
Why don't we let them dress up the young master?"
Aunt Luo Now I know some etiquette, so I said it respectfully.
It also made it impossible for Liu Moniang to find fault.
"But those two vulgar-looking girls behind you are not what Xu An likes."
Mrs.
Zhou asked.
These two maids had their eyes rolling around since they came in.
They were not peaceful.
"My mother-in-law is absolutely right.
Xu'an can't choose a maid at will.
What's more, this is a marriage."
Liu Moniang was proud, but she didn't show it on her face.
"Old Madam.
This is me."
Aunt Luo was about to say something else, but was interrupted by Mrs.
Zhou's words.
"Okay, you guys are coming to my yard in groups, it's really giving me a headache.
Please go back with the maids, I will consider Xu'an's matters myself."
Mrs.
Zhou
After saying that, she waved her hand to Zi Yuan, the eldest maid beside her.
Zi Yuan nodded and said expressionlessly to Mrs.
Zhou Liu and Aunt Luo: "The old lady is tired.
Madam and aunt, please go back first."
Go ahead. " Zhou Liu resigned after hearing this.
Several maids followed behind her.
Aunt Luo had no choice but to leave, but a few more maids followed behind her.
Wait for them to leave.
The room was finally much more spacious and brighter, and even the aroma was much lighter.
"Zi Yuan, where is the eldest young master?"
Mrs.
Zhou asked again.
"Go back to the old lady, the eldest young master has come back from outside.
I sent someone to invite him.
It is estimated that he will be here soon."
Zi Yuan said still expressionlessly. "" Mrs.
Zhou didn't speak any more, but continued to fall asleep while counting the beads in her hand.
"Old Madam, the young master is here."
After a while, I heard the maid outside the door opening the curtain and saying, and then I saw Zhou Xu'an in a green shirt walking in.
Her expression was exactly the same as that of Zi Yuan beside Madam Zhou. .
It's just that Zhou Xu'an was dull and inexpressive, while Zi Yuan was cold from the bottom of her heart, so her face was expressionless.
"Grandma."
Zhou Xu'an called, not forgetting to salute her.

"Xu'an, you're not young anymore.
It's time for you to have a concubine.
Besides, you're a young master, and you don't even have a maid to serve him in the yard."
Mrs.
Zhou said pretending to be unhappy.
"Grandma, didn't I say it before?
I find it troublesome, so I will only marry one wife in the future."
Zhou Xu'an said, and saw that his grandmother was about to speak, so he said what he wanted to say while the iron was hot: "Besides, I have I have someone I want to marry.”
"Then let's not talk about the concubine for now.
Who do you think you want to marry?"
Mrs.
Zhou said with a frown.
The daughter of Magistrate Zhu who was in the county seat a few days ago Zhu Zhiyuan actually sent someone another letter, saying that her father had transferred to the capital the capital's criminal case investigation envoy Yamen to become the county magistrate, and he had actually been promoted to the sixth rank.
This is also remarkable, not to mention that Mr.
Zhu has a close relationship with the Shuntian Prefecture Yin.
Mrs.
Zhou has sincerely recognized Zhu Zhiyuan as her eldest grandson's wife.
"Her name is Chunyu, but she is the daughter of a small family."
Zhou Xu'an said, but he saw his grandmother's face getting worse and worse.
"The name Chunyu sounds familiar," Mrs.
Zhou said.
"Back to Madam, the Chunyu girl that Miss Mengya occasionally talked about when she came here is the one who often eats with her."
Zi Yuan has a good memory and hurriedly told Madam Zhou.
"Who is that country girl?
No, I don't think it's a lowly family to let her join our Zhou family as a concubine."
Mrs.
Zhou resisted very much when she heard this.
"Grandma, you believe in Buddhism.
The Buddha also said: All living beings are equal.
There is no difference between the humble and the rich.
When I marry a wife, I only want to marry the person I want to marry.
As for my grandma, I cannot agree with your thoughts," Zhou Xu'an said.
But she was about to leave, and at the end she turned around and added: "Grandma, I have invited the Zhou family to her party tomorrow.
I think you will like her when you meet her."
But when Zhou Xu'an walked outside the door, he heard a snapping sound, as if something had been thrown.
Zhou Xu'an was quiet for a while, and then went directly to his sister Zhou Mengya's Yimengju without stopping, because he had to talk to Meng'er.
He couldn't go to the inner courtyard tomorrow and had to let her take good care of Chunyu for him.
As for my grandmother, if I let her know today, she must be ready to accept it.
When his mother was still alive, she was unhappy with her in every possible way, and she didn't have much affection for his brother and sister.
By the time her mother passed away, it was already too late for her to express her grandmother's love.
However, what he is worried about is that he will not be loved by his grandmother.
It will be difficult for Chunyu, but he will definitely try his best to prevent her from being wronged. fff5601211 Read the latest and most complete novels:
