The servant girl showed a forced smile, and said with some embarrassment: "Aunt Hu, the old lady asked the servant girl to take you to Yuyuan to meet the fourth lady first."

Hu's face suddenly turned pale, and she almost subconsciously turned her head to look at A Tao's brother Zhang, then turned her head again, and said calmly, "Then please ask sister to show you the way."

The servant girl accepted the benefits, so naturally she didn't answer, and led the Hu family to Jade Garden.

Mrs. Hu brought along two servant girls and several servants, all of whom carried heavy burdens.

Along the way, many servants watched and couldn't help whispering.

"See, that's the concubine's room of the fourth master."

"The color is average, but look at her clothes, tsk tsk, she is rich."

"I heard that there is a tea garden at home, and the merchants are rich, but the gold bracelet on his hand is too thick, not as delicate as the jade bracelets worn by the ladies and wives."

The chattering maids looked at each other and smiled.

On the contrary, some servants stared at Hu Shi eagerly.

They are no better than those little maids whose hearts are higher than the sky and their fate is thinner than paper. The young lady is a servant girl, and she doesn't look down on this rich merchant girl. When the time comes, please ask her in front of her, and you will get rewards Definitely more rewards than the serious masters in the house.

The old servant in the mansion knows too well that there must be rules in everything, including rewards for servants, there have always been rules.

At their age, they didn't expect to be outstanding, so they could please this rich concubine and get more rewards.It is good fortune.

Not to mention that the servants in the mansion have different thoughts, Hu's going to Jade Garden with the maid who leads the way is also an eye-opener.

After all, the government of Zhen Guo was accumulated for several generations and started with military exploits. Its family background is not comparable to those poor civil servants. in the pile.

Hu almost breathed a sigh of relief.Restraining the look in his eyes, he turned his head and asked Brother Zhang: "Brother Zhang, are you exhausted, you will be here soon."

"Mother, I feel bad." Brother Zhang's whole face was buried in the snow fox hood, looking listless and listless.

Mrs. Hu stretched out her hand and touched Brother Zhang's forehead.Distressed and authentic: "Fortunately, I don't have a fever."

A Tao comforted her and said: "Madam, don't worry, my brother will be fine after a few days of recuperation, and it will be even better if my brother is happy when he sees the master."

Hu stared, and scolded: "A Tao, why are you still calling me wife!"

A Tao lowered her head, and mumbled: "The servant girl got used to it for a while. Don't dare anymore."

Mrs. Hu glanced at the maids and women, and said loudly: "In the future, if any of you make mistakes again, you will definitely not be forgiven!"

"Yes--"

Hu said to the maid leading the way: "I made my sister laugh."

The leading maid named Huang Ying couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic in her heart.

She thought to herself that Aunt Hu's life was also in danger. She heard that she saved the fourth master's life, she married the fourth master in a serious way and gave birth to a son.Then the wife became a concubine, and the son became a concubine.

This Aunt Hu.It must be the fourth master who loves him badly.Married the fourth master when he had nothing, and after the fourth master remembered that his wife was going home, he willingly followed him as a concubine.

"Aunt Hu can just call her servant Huang Ying." Huang Ying smiled a little more genuinely than before, "Is the young master sick on the way?"

Mrs. Hu sighed and said, "It's not a serious problem, it's just that the child suffered from a serious illness not long after he was born, and he hasn't recovered since. This is the peace of mind."

"Don't worry, Aunt Hu, the young master will be in good health once he arrives at the mansion."

"Then I would like to thank Sister Huangying for her auspicious words." Hu rolled his eyes, pulled out a golden hairpin from his head, and stuffed it into Huangying's hands.

Huang Ying was taken aback and hurriedly declined.

Mrs. Hu said in a low voice: "Sister Huang Ying, please don't refuse, my brother is not comfortable on this journey, and my heart is like frying in a frying pan. When I step into this huge Duke's mansion, I am a merchant girl. I was so scared, but fortunately I met such a kind-hearted person as my sister, so I felt more at ease."

Huang Ying was holding the yellow golden hairpin in her hand, and was being praised high by Hu's words, a strange pleasure emerged from the bottom of her heart.

She is a third-class maid, although she is in the old lady's yard, she is a bit more respectable than others, but she is incomparable with first- and second-class maids, and she is not outstanding in the yard.

When a person like Hu who is regarded as a half master said these words, and the situation was so pitiful, she felt sympathy and pride in her heart. The complicated mood was hard to explain, but her attitude towards Hu was much better. point.

The corners of Hu's mouth twitched slightly.

Sure enough, if you want to quickly get closer to someone, especially someone with a lower status than you, the best thing is to ask him to do you a favor and make him feel that you value him and respect him.

It was just a trick in the mall, and this little girl fell for the bait.

It's just that she, Hu Xiumei, will get back one by one sooner or later for the humiliation she suffered today by doing this to these lowly servants!

Hu secretly gritted her teeth, pressed the trace of resentment deep into her heart, and smiled embarrassedly: "After this time has passed, I don't know if it will disturb the fourth lady's rest?"

"It's not even noon yet, the fourth lady should be teaching the sixth young master to practice calligraphy." Huang Ying said smoothly.

"The Fourth Madam is really talented." Hu's voice lowered, "I don't know what kind of person the Fourth Madam is..."

Huang Ying received a lot of rewards, and she felt sympathy for the Hu family from the bottom of her heart, so she said frankly: "The fourth lady is quiet, and she always talks softly to our servants. Don't worry, Aunt Hu."

"That's good—" Hu pursed her lips.

Talking all the way, Yuyuan will arrive.

The maid who guarded the gate hurriedly greeted Huang Ying: "It's sister Huang Ying, this is—"

"Aunt Hu has brought the young master into the mansion, hurry up and talk to the fourth madam."

The little maid was stunned, her eyes fell on Hu's face for a long time, then she turned around and ran away quickly.

After a while, a beautiful servant girl dressed as a first-class servant girl came over and bowed slightly to Aunt Hu: "My servant has pearls, Madam invites Aunt Hu and young master to come in."

Huang Ying exchanged some pleasantries, then turned and went back to Yi'an Hall.

The old lady called Huang Ying in for questioning.

"Did she really say that?"

"Yes, a girl in pink called Aunt Hu's wife, and Aunt Hu scolded her severely, and warned all the maids and women who came with her."

The old lady nodded slightly, she thought she was sensible, and then asked: "Brother, are you feeling well?"

Huang Ying repeated what Hu said.

The old lady frowned slightly.

Although the two children, the fourth child, are brothers, one is dull and the other is weak, which is really worrying.

The old lady always cared about her youngest son, and thinking about what happened to Fourth Uncle Luo these years was really distressing, so she felt a little pity for Brother Zhang who hadn't met, and turned her head and said: "Hongfu, go and tell the second lady , go to the Imperial Medical Office and invite an imperial physician who is good at pediatrics to show Brother Zhang."

"Yes."

Hong Fu turned around and was about to leave, but the old lady called her back again: "Mrs. Ji also invites you to come to the house and show it to Grandma."

After everyone had gone out, the old lady said to Nanny Yang: "Everyone is worried."

Nanny Yang persuaded: "Madam, don't worry, your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."

"Oh, I was negligent in the past. Dalang's daughter-in-law is uncomfortable, or Dalang specially found Mrs. Ji who is good at gynecology. If it weren't for this, I still don't know that Dalang's daughter-in-law has palace cold syndrome and needs to be taken care of , wouldn't that delay their young couple?"

Speaking of this, the old lady thought of Dr. Feng who was raised in the house.

There are many female relatives in the family, but Dr. Feng is not good at diagnosing and treating women's problems, which is really inappropriate.

However, Dr. Feng has been in the mansion for more than ten years, and he has not made any serious mistakes, so there is no reason to dismiss him.

"Mother Yang, when Madam Ji enters the mansion, go and talk to her, and ask her to come to the mansion every three months to give the women's relatives a medical checkup."

Nanny Yang hurriedly responded.

The old lady seemed to be very talkative, and she smiled and said: "Da Lang is also a good person. Knowing that Da Lang's wife is inconvenient to serve, she didn't go to those common houses. Da Lang's wife didn't learn from those virtuous people. Taking concubines for Da Lang indiscriminately."

Nanny Yang just laughed: "According to the old slave, it is still the great grandma who is lucky to meet a grandmother like you."

She has seen a lot, and knows that daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law cannot serve men, and there are many old ladies who feel sorry for their sons and grandchildren, and there are many old ladies who stuff people into their sons and grandchildren's rooms.

There are even those who are confused, seeing that their daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law cannot conceive for a while, it is not uncommon for them to turn a blind eye and close their eyes to be born by the eldest son.

The old lady curled her lips: "The situation of the fourth child is helpless. Others have both sons and daughters, and if there are so many concubines and concubines, I won't beat him to death with crutches!"

Speaking of this, he sighed softly: "Actually, the child is right, it's just that the concubine suffers from birth, either on the body or in the heart. It's better to entrust her to another good family."

"What the old lady said is true." Yang Nanny followed with a sigh.

Even in the deep palace compound, wouldn't the concubine prince suffer?

"A virtuous wife and husband rarely cause harm. In my opinion, this virtuous man is not just busying himself with women for the men. He is pretending to be virtuous. Look at the messy families in the capital. Which one is not because of the large number of concubines and concubines? It caused so many disasters." Holding the teacup, the old lady didn't know what to think of, and said softly, "As long as they are of one heart and one mind, and wholeheartedly pass on this duke's mansion, it's just for me and the old duke. filial piety."

Nanny Yang took a deep look at the old lady.

For the first time, she couldn't see through the old lady's mind.

When Mrs. Hu saw the fourth wife Mrs. Qi over there, her heart sank suddenly.

She thought that a woman who gave birth to a posthumous child and lived as a widow for many years must have decayed appearance and died young, but she didn't expect Qi to be such a person with outstanding temperament.
