Happy Marriage

Yu Jingyun nodded with satisfaction: "That's fine, anyway, An Sheng has someone to be with her in the mansion. When you have free time, come here to talk to her."

Yu Lingsu was obviously unfamiliar with Yu Jingyun, and nodded in agreement: "Lingsu is exactly what you want."

Before Yu Jingyun spoke, someone hurriedly came to report: "Qi Shizi, someone has come from the palace, and I will announce you to enter the palace."

He touched his nose, rather reluctantly: "You rest first, I'll be back in a while."

An Sheng was thinking about seeing Leng Nanxian, so he blurted out and warned, "Then you must come back sooner."

Yu Jingyun blinked his eyes proudly: "Are you reluctant to let me leave?"

Yu Lingsu couldn't help covering his lips and snickering.

Ann glared at him angrily, but did not refute.

Yu Jingyun walked out of the yard with a smile and walked straight away.

Yu Lingsu turned her face and said, "Miss An Sheng was tired after thinking about it, so she went in to rest, drink some tea, and have some refreshments."

An Sheng got up early in the morning and was in a hurry to leave, so he didn't eat. At this time, he was really hungry, so he was not polite and entered the room.

The room is naturally bright and clean, with antique jade wares, a screen of drapes, and the room is full of splendid beauty, which is many times more luxurious than your own boudoir.

In addition to seasonal fruits, fragrant tea cups, and three layers of delicate dried fruits and desserts on the table. Obviously, Yu Lingsu is very thoughtful and attentive.

An Sheng sat down, and the girl who was waiting immediately stepped forward, poured her a cup of tea lightly, held it with the tips of two jade-like fingers, and handed it to An Sheng respectfully. As soon as she exited, Yingsheng Yan said, "Miss Ansheng, please have some tea."

Yu Lingsu introduced attentively from the side: "This is the one specially sent by the eldest lady to serve you, called Jin Mi'er."

The word "specially" is biting harder, and it clearly means something.

An Sheng glanced at the girl, her phoenix eyes and red lips, she looked romantic, and a pair of black lacquer-like eyes rolled around, obviously she had a heart.

Such a beautiful appearance and figure are wronged to be a servant girl?

An Sheng raised his face to look at Yu Lingsu, Yu Lingsu smiled with a meaningful expression.

An Sheng didn't understand the intention of Mrs. Hou's move at this time, but in Yu Lingsu's smile, he also understood that he should be careful about this Jin Mi'er.

Yu Lingsu called out two younger girls: "These two are rough maids in the house. If you have any errands, you can instruct them. One is called Tao'er and the other is called Xing'er. , catchy, easy to remember."

The two little girls were probably not long after entering the mansion. They greeted An Sheng timidly, and then withdrew.

Yu Lingsu took a seat beside An Sheng, and after a few words of greetings, he became acquainted, and sent Jin Mi'er down to tell An Sheng about the situation in the Hou's mansion.

An Sheng learned from Yu Lingsu that there were no family divisions in Hou's mansion, and all the houses lived together.

In addition to Yu Jingyun, the direct line also had three concubines, who were descended from the concubine of each house. There were six or seven young ladies who came out of the cabinet, and among those who were still waiting to be named, in addition to Yu Lingsu, there were three daughters who were not yet married.

Yu Jingyun has been busy with court affairs, plus he is arrogant and arrogant, and he has not been crowned as a concubine, but the three concubines have already married and established businesses, and in addition to the young lady, all the rooms have accepted the concubine and the maid.

Coupled with the branches and loose leaves, the forest finally came down, and there were naturally a lot of female dependents, which made An Sheng stunned.

In this way, a Hou's mansion, isn't the master alone dozens of people?

When I went to the Xia family's uncle's mansion before, I was already dazzled. Compared with the Hou mansion, it was nothing.

In such a big mansion, so many people, so many mouths, food and clothing expenses, and various expenses, I am afraid that all of them will fall on the two of Hou Ye and Yu Jingyun. A mansion, all relying on two people's life and death, in exchange for glory and wealth.

And Mrs. Hou, in charge of the daily trivial matters of such a large family, from clothing, food, housing and transportation, down to food, drink and Lhasa, and also honoring the old lady and serving the old Houye, this is not an ordinary pressure.

If it was just that, it would be fine. I'm afraid it would be like the Xia Mansion. There are many people, and there are many right and wrong. Every day, there are some intriguing pickles, and some people are envious and covet this high-ranking seat.

This is harder than managing a harem!

The head of the Hou Mansion is really not something that ordinary people can be. He looks glorious, but in fact, he works so hard that he can't even sleep well.

Yu Lingsu's remarks had already made An Sheng imagined and panicked in his heart.

Moreover, when Yu Lingsu said these words, it was inevitable that he was complaining, and he was somewhat open-mouthed.

It seems like a heartfelt confidant, but unfortunately the two are not familiar with each other. Today is only the second time they met, so they said such words rashly. They were not cautious enough in words and deeds. A girl who grew up in the land.

After all, An Sheng was just an outsider, and he didn't ask much about the right and wrong of the Hou Mansion, so he didn't answer.

Yu Lingsu also realized that he was a little rude, and left the yard under the pretext of preparing lunch.

The lunch was brought by Jin Mi'er from the kitchen. Just after lunch, female family members from the house came to the door one after another. With various purposes in mind, he used various methods to test An Sheng.

Facing their temptation, An Sheng answered without revealing anything, neither admitting nor denying it, neither being enthusiastic nor alienating. Be polite to anyone.

For a time, this small courtyard was full of people.

Jin Mi'er was very clear about these intricate relationships in the mansion, saving An Sheng from the embarrassment of being a newcomer.

She also noticed that when those aunts and wives first saw Jin Mi'er, they smiled knowingly.

At the beginning of An Sheng, he could still remember a few people. Later, many people came and went. The same beaded heads, silk and satin, the same peach-flour cheeks, red lips and eyebrows, how many faces overlapped together. Can't tell who is who and who is who.

But the three main ladies in the concubine's ovary, she deliberately remembered their appearance.

It's not that she has any deliberate thoughts, but that she lives in the Houfu, and her life is sparse, which must be remembered.

As soon as those aunts or young ladies walked out of the courtyard door, they whispered and whispered about the future "Prince Concubine".

An Sheng just felt as if he had beaten five generals and was exhausted.

The next day, An Sheng went to acupuncture the old lady after breakfast.

Mrs. Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou's mansion side are also serving tea with the front end, and they have all seen An Sheng one by one.

It was the first time that the second lady met her, and she even gave her the same greeting, a piece of jade pendant around her waist, which was obviously extremely precious.

If An Sheng is just a doctor girl, then this meeting ceremony is undoubtedly too precious, and obviously has other meanings, but it is tacit.

Mrs. Hou was on the side, always keeping a warm smile on her face. She didn't speak, and it was difficult to understand her thoughts.

An Sheng couldn't refuse, and was ashamed of the gift, so he abandoned these distracting thoughts and began to give the old lady acupuncture.

After the acupuncture was finished, the old lady refused to let her go, and left her to have lunch together, which was considered to be a welcome for her.

However, An Sheng was disrespectful. He sat down at the first place. Mrs. Hou and the others answered in a low voice.

Lunch had already been ordered in advance, and the old lady also announced that several young ladies in the mansion would come to accompany her, and gathered around to have tea and talk, which made An Sheng somewhat flattered.

I also drank two cups of tea, and the table was not ready yet. Someone came in and reported to Mrs. Hou that it was someone from outside who wanted to see her.

Mrs. Hou sat very upright, did not get up, and asked lazily, "Who is it? What do you want to see me do, can you find out?"

The maid who came to report back raised her eyes to look at An Sheng, and swallowed the words she wanted to blurt out: "It's a woman, I'm here to invite you to call the shots."

There are a lot of messes in the house every day, and there are many relatives who come to see those who want to fight the autumn wind, and there are many relatives who can't even fight. The servants in the house are all reasonable, and they are dismissed if there is nothing important, and they do not dare to disturb Mrs. Hou.

A woman made a special trip to report to her, thinking that there must be something important, and the people below dare not make decisions without authorization.

Mrs. Hou saw that the maid was on the verge of speaking, and she should have avoided An Sheng, so she stood up, walked out of the old lady's room, chatted with the maid, and then turned back.

The old lady raised her eyelids and asked, "What's the matter? What a fuss, but I still have to see you? I don't know that you work hard every day in charge of the house?"

Mrs. Hou walked up to the old lady, lowered her head and muttered in a low voice.

The old lady looked surprised, raised her face and asked, "Really?"

Mrs. Hou nodded: "That's what I said, but I don't know the truth."

The old lady smiled "hehe": "Does it need to be said? You, a mother, know it well, otherwise how could you be so calm?"

Mrs. Hou also smiled slightly: "Do you always think so?"

The old lady glanced at An Sheng and said meaningfully, "Announce that woman to me."

Mrs. Hou was taken aback: "How can you bother about such a small thing? My daughter-in-law sent her away in the past."

The old lady narrowed her eyes slightly and shook her head: "What did you do? I just took the opportunity to beat and beat these prostitutes, so that they would also restrain their behavior. After all, it was not easy for them to lay down the foundation of our Houfu. But we can't let them ruin the reputation of our Houfu."

Mrs. Hou nodded: "You always say the most, or you always feel sorry for them."

Turn around and go out to arrange.

The old lady also instructed the confused second lady: "Send someone to call all the female relatives in the house and listen in the yard."

The second lady did not dare to ask any further questions, so she got up and went.
