Chapter 71: Happy Events (I)

Wenyang Mansion said, the sky is blue and white, the sun is shining, and the Dingyuan General's Mansion is even more calm.

It rained a few days ago, on the bluestone pavement, the water stains still existed, in the sun, reflecting the dazzling light, in the afternoon, the air warmed up, and the ladies came out for a walk, which was already increasing.

The sound of small footsteps came from the gravel paved road leading from the front yard to the back house, and listening to the footsteps, it seemed that several people were walking back and forth.

It was accompanied by the sound of soft talking.

The self-proclaimed mother-in-law is a middle-aged woman, her voice is low and magnetic, although it is not pleasant, but it is very comfortable to listen to, and in her tone, there is a kind of spontaneous humility, but there is a trace of ability.

Just by the tone of the voice, people can't help but give trust, and judging from this self-title, it should be the most respected female protagonist in the general's mansion.

A woman's voice that spoke to her obviously belonged to a young woman, and her tone was very peaceful, giving people a feeling of softness, like a spring breeze, it was Song Xinyou, the hostess of this house!

The two daughters were talking about the cultivation of flowers in the mansion and the purchase of slaves and maids.

In this winter and spring, how to welcome the arrival of summer and decorate the scenery of the mansion is also a big deal for the hostess.

“...... Madam, the main entrance road left and right, has been planted on the flower seeds, are according to your instructions, with good varieties, should be planted now, other Yong Road around, also put the next flower seeds, the east and west sides and the north and south partition corner door, planted on the cold flower varieties, in preparation for the next spring, can let the back house enjoy the flowers in the snow. ”

“...... In the courtyards, Canghailou is the general's study, according to your orders, only ten plum trees have been transplanted, and they have begun to recover and survive, and there are courtyards, according to your instructions, divide the seeds, and let them arrange their own. ”

“...... Among them, there are 17 kinds of ordinary flowers and 6 kinds of precious flowers, which have been planted, and the old lady and the second lady have also selected the best varieties among them and sent them over. ”

"That's it. The steward finally said.

Hearing the female steward in front of him, she carefully reported these reports, but only one person was missing, Song Xinyou smiled faintly and asked, "Where is Miss Cousin?"

"Madam, according to your instructions, I deliberately selected six small packets of precious flowers and a large bag of mixed ordinary flowers, and sent them to be sent, but the person sent soon came back to restore his life, saying that Miss Biao had something to say, and she was allergic to pollen, so she didn't like flowers very much, and only loved to raise some green bamboo, and the seeds were sent back again. The housekeeper replied with her head bowed.

"Don't you like flowers? hehe...... It's a pity, the courtyard is full of bamboos, it looks quiet, but it seems to be too deserted!"

"Yes, although it is quiet, as soon as I arrive in this courtyard, I feel that there is a cool air, and I can't stay for a long time. The steward immediately responded, apparently with a close heart!

Su'er's fetish, Song Xinyou knows for the first time that girls don't like flowers, there are really few in the world.

However, if you are allergic to pollen, it is also a valid reason.

Dressed in a light blue dress, when she heard this, she just smiled faintly, adding a bit of spring to this spring.

The steward on the other side, although it was a woman, looked a little distracted for a moment.

Song Xinyou's appearance is refined and beautiful, but what is even more admirable is her peaceful and bright temperament, magnanimity and capable means.

Marrying into the Wang family and presiding over the mansion of the lord of the two counties, not only everything is handled in an orderly manner, but it is natural that the whole mansion recognizes her status as the first hostess, which is not simple.

"That being the case, Sister-in-law Li, then let people buy some new bamboo seeds and send them to Miss Biao's yard!" After a little consideration, Song Xinyou smiled and said instructively, with her instinct, she knew that Su'er, this woman was really not simple, and she couldn't ignore it.

"Yes, ma'am. Sister-in-law Li hurriedly responded respectfully.

"Let's go back to the garden. ”

"Yes!"

After just a few steps, Song Xinyou suddenly frowned, stopped, and pressed his hand on his abdomen.

"What's wrong with you, ma'am?"

After closing her eyes and recuperating for a while, Song Xinyou opened her eyes and saw Sister-in-law Li's concerned gaze, so she only said lightly: "It's okay." ”

And then move on.

"Madam, further on, is the firewood room, this is the place where the inferior slaves and maids live, Madame's body is expensive, or don't go to the bad luck. Although Sister-in-law Li didn't know what was going on, Song Xinyou, who was obviously talented, was a little ugly for a moment.

While accompanying Song Xinyou forward, she paid attention to her wife, and saw that Song Xinyou would soon return to normal, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although she was promoted by the general to be the head of the house, her wife was not thin on her, and such a hostess made her feel a little good and did not want her to have an accident.

However, she was a person from the past, and she also had some guesses in her heart, so after thinking about it, she kept this matter in mind.

"By the way, in the firewood room, a group of new servants and maids have just lived, right?"

Song Xinyou stopped, and the casual question made Sister-in-law Li's forehead sweat.

Sister-in-law Li hurriedly lowered her eyes and replied seriously: "Yes, madam, this group of servants and maids is the batch I reported to you half a month ago. ”

"Oh, the group of slaves and maids assigned to the second lady's village?" asked more and more casually this time.

"Yes!" Sister-in-law Li replied more and more cautiously, with only one word.

You must know that as a person who was promoted by the general to be in charge, Sister-in-law Li does not belong to any of the two ladies' cronies, and has always only done what she should do.

She knows about the things in the house.

The eldest lady and the second lady get along very well, and there is no tension.

This is not so much a deep sisterhood, but rather that the two ladies are smart people, and Song Xinyou is decisive, has a generous surname, and has mastered the power of the mansion, but there is nothing to fight for.

You must know that Qin Zhi's loss of the deer, the world chases it, everyone is peaceful in the era of peace, since Song Xinyou can rely on his family background, reputation, and means to quickly stabilize his position, then there is no fierce fight.

But she knew that the privilege given to the second lady by the general was still a knot in Song Xinyou's heart.

It's just that Song Xinyou is obviously self-contained and extremely intelligent, but she has never troubled the second lady at this time, but occasionally asks a sentence or two, which makes her have an illusion that this eldest lady actually has a grasp of the affairs of this inner house.

"If that's the case, then there's no need to look at it. Presumably, Sister-in-law Li will not make any mistakes. Seeing that cold sweat gradually broke out on Sister-in-law Li's forehead, it was obvious that she was thinking about something serious, Song Xinyou's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she said very considerately.

The one who should be beaten has been beaten, and the power in this house is not sidelined, it is enough, as for some small things, there is no need to care.

Turning his head and looking in one direction, Song Xinyou subconsciously stroked his lower abdomen, his eyes drooping slightly.

Wang Hongyi's support for his wife means, how could she not understand.

Perhaps, this is because she is afraid that the Song family's forces will be too involved in the Wang family, but she is also a smart person, thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile dumbly.

Especially if there are already ones.

"Madam?" came from Sister-in-law Li's soft call.

Song Xinyou came back to her senses, naturally lowered her right hand, smiled at the assistant, and said, "Let's go, go back." ”

"No. Sister-in-law Li lowered her head in response, and when she looked up again, Song Xinyou had already turned around and walked a few steps away, looking at her back, Sister-in-law Li's eyes were dazed for a moment.

Muttering to herself, Sister-in-law Li followed.

"Qingzhu sent by the eldest lady?" Standing in front of the courtyard, seeing some maids and servants digging a soil pit, Su'er smiled lightly, and her attention was obviously not here.

Turning her face to look out of the courtyard, she was Shicai, and she meditated and scanned around.

From her point of view, the entire Jiedu Embassy Mansion was shrouded in a thin layer of clouds, which was originally white, but recently, there was already a trace of red gas.

This is a sign of good luck, and you must know that the individual, the house, and the overall luck are all different.

Su'er had already checked a few places of Yin Qi that had accumulated in the dark and was thinking in her heart that she would take them to the Underworld next time, this is the person she killed before, and somehow she didn't go to the Underworld.

Merely...... Su'er recalled the glance just now, and Song Xinyou suddenly had a layer of power on her body, blocking her from approaching her divine sense, which was really amazing.

Thinking of this, I thought about it, and at this moment, a servant woman suddenly came to pass the word, saying that the old lady had just bought some fabrics, and asked her to go over and pick a few horses.

"Please go back to the old lady, Su'er will go over here. Su'er said with a smile.

When the other party walked away, she went back to the house to change into a clean dress, and after checking, she took a maid and walked towards the old lady's courtyard.

It has been some time since she came to the shore, but she has adapted quickly to the rules and sophistication of this world, and finally she will not reveal her identity.

On the way, I happened to meet Song Xinyou, who was also going to the old lady, and the two met the courtesy, chatting and laughing, while Su'er secretly paid attention.

However, he found that except for a faint halo around Song Xinyou, this power did not appear again, and it was quite inappropriate to probe at this time, so he had to put it down for the time being.

When the second daughter came to the old lady's courtyard, Zhao Wan didn't know if she arrived first, or if she was here all the time, talking to the old lady.

I saw that the old lady looked at Zhao Wan with a smile in her eyes, this scene, if other noble girls were born in the main room, it was inevitable that she would not be angry.

Song Xinyou smiled, without even a trace of hidden anger, first saw the old lady, and then smiled at each other with Zhao Wan, and walked over to join in.

For a while, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted, and in a very natural way, it evolved into a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatting.

Su'er, who was walking behind, saw it, and the smile in her eyes became stronger.

"Look at you and your two sisters-in-law, what you know is your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but I don't know, I thought it was my mother and daughter, but I, poor and lonely, just an outsider!" she said coquettishly.

"Xiao Nizi, come to pretend to be pitiful again, you said so, I have to let you choose the ingredients first, so as not to let you talk again. The old lady smiled and was very fond of Su'er.

After getting the old lady's response, Su'er blinked, smiled and said, "Then Su'er, you're welcome, I'll choose first!"

This appearance caused the three girls to laugh and scold again.

At this moment, a servant woman came in and couldn't help but report a message: "Old lady, two ladies, the general has triumphed, a great victory, the Li family has been destroyed, and Du Gongzhen has withdrawn." ”

Everyone in the room was stunned at first, and then they were overjoyed, although they seemed to be normal, in fact, they were all worried about the news from the front.

"Well, I'm about to get ready to ......" stood up, Song Xinyou was about to give something, but his face turned pale suddenly, and his stomach rolled for a while, and he vomited out with a "wow" sound.
