Hongwu Survival Guide

Chapter 265
Luoshui took Lin Xiaoyu to the front east garden first, where there was a medium kitchen specially for the women in the inner house, and ordered the cook in charge to deliver meals to the backyard, and then turned west to the courtyard where Zhu Yuan lived in daily life.

In the east wing of the courtyard, before entering the door, I saw Zhuang Liuniang talking to Xieyi with Zhongli Watermelon: "...Actually, I also do some soup. Dad works hard every day..."

Xieyi interrupted: "On weekdays, don't shout like that, adults don't like it."

"Yes, yes," Zhuang Liuniang said lightly, "Your Excellency works hard every day, and I also think about it. I will cook a meal for Your Excellency at noon today. Your Excellency... Your Excellency said that anyone who has an idea can try it?"

"Adults have their own preferences. You can't make a meal for yourself. Since you have the heart, prepare it later. I will cook a few in the small kitchen next door and give it to you."

Zhuang Liuniang seemed dissatisfied, but nodded, "That's fine, that's fine."

"Go."

Zhuang Liuniang took Zhongli Watermelon to salute to Xieyi, turned around and saw Luoshui and Gunny, nodded in greeting, and then went out.

When the people walked away, Luo Shui asked with a smile: "What kind of monster are you?"

Xieyi was still sitting on the chair, smiling at Luoshui: "Aren't you listening?"

Suddenly, a voice from Liu Bai came from the next curtain, with a strange tone: "She gave herself to the adults to eat, isn't it enough, why bother."

Luo Shui laughed.

The sack also curled up the corners of his mouth.

Freehand and helpless: "Embroider your clothes well. If you are so unforgiving, be careful that one day, the adults will not be able to bear it, and will pull out your tongue."

The blank space in the middle immediately countered: "It's good to pull it out. I can also learn from Xiaoyu not to talk. Adults like it more. Ahhh... I am a dumb, what a cute little dumb, I want to kiss when I see it, my heart hurts. .”

"Ha ha……"

Another woman in the room laughed along with her.

Lin Xiaoyu also laughed, knowing in her heart that Sister Liu Bai has a sharp mouth... Well, she is not a bean curd heart, but she is actually very kind to her.

If she hadn't begged herself back then, she wouldn't have been able to come to the adult.

Xieyi got up, and came to the north room with Luoshui and Xiaoyu. There were six women around a table in the outer room, and they were carefully sewing and embroidering a red dress.

In addition to Liu Bai, there are a few others, including Liangqiu Liuniang and Li Sanniang who entered the door earlier, and there are also a few women named after the poem "Frontier Fortress".

Definitely the best embroiderers.

Originally there were a few from the group of 'Liu Qiao' and 'Lan Shan', but they were called out by Zhu Yuanquan yesterday, so naturally they are missing today.

Seeing Lin Xiaoyu coming in together, Liu Bai was not at all guilty of saying bad things about someone behind his back, and he gave the girl a righteous look, and then turned to Luoshui with a probing expression, unavoidably uneasy.

Luo Shui found a place to sit down, picked up the needle and thread, and shook his head slightly.

Seeing Luoshui shaking his head, not only leaving blank, Xieyi also heaved a sigh of relief, even Liangqiu Liuniang felt a little more relaxed in his heart. First chance, that's really bad.

Liangqiu Liuniang earnestly put a flower on the red dress with gold thread, lowered her head, seemingly unintentionally said: "That Zhuang Liuer just now... is too wanton."

Liu Bai pouted teasingly: "What can I do, my lord... I love you."

Li Sanniang said, "I heard...you have been hung up?"

Lu Bai was even more impolite: "I just like to see that hanging, that Cai Lingzi, who else may have hung it."

Now, within a few miles of the house, Liangqiu Liuniang had a big red face.

really……

Oh eccentricity.

Xie Yi interrupted: "Just say a few words less."

Liu Bai didn't stop talking, and insisted: "There is also a bed in the backyard, which is so big that it looks like a room. If it spreads out, it may be what it will be like."

This……

Is a problem.

But, what about their daughter's house in the inner house.Anyway, jokes are also for men. Men are not afraid, so what are they afraid of?
Liangqiu Liuniang's blushing face slowed down, and seeing that Liu Bai's few words had distorted her thoughts, she had to come back again: "I mean, that Zhuang Liuer... Writer, tell me, and then find... …Find a few of the same ones to come in, and the adults will not favor her alone.”

"..."

The atmosphere was quiet for a while.

These words are simply...a word that awakens the dreamer.

The reason why Zhuang Liuniang was able to win the...favor of her adults is not because of that, that one, if, if... then there is no one.

Beside the round table, Lu Bai, who was most focused on embroidering clothes, subconsciously slowed down his movements until he accidentally pricked himself, then woke up, quickly put the pricked finger into his mouth, then shook his head, put his hands aside, Said: "If it's just... just a nanny, it's not okay, my lord... I like good-looking ones."

Luo Shui was the calmest on the surface, continuing to embroider clothes, and now said: "It's not difficult."

Let's look at it together.

Luo Shui was still soft, as if he wasn't talking by himself: "Recently, many people have come to give New Year gifts..."

The girls suddenly realized.

Yes.

It happened to be the end of the new year. These days, people have begun to come to give New Year's gifts.

The things that can be sent to the family of the emperor's relatives and deputy prime minister, Pingzhang, cannot be simple, and even, probably, they all know the preferences of their own adults, so it is normal to send a few beauties.

In this case, as long as there is a little bit of wind, someone will try to please him.

At that time, Zhuang Liuniang must not be the only one.

However, Xieyi quickly shook her head: "It can't be like this, this matter...how can I take the initiative to spread it."

Liu Bai was sober just now, and said, "It's really not, it's not decent."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but lose his mind.

The few in the house are all educated. In history, there are people with various hobbies, who have left records, but... after all, it is not a good word.

How can it spread? !

However, Liangqiu Liuniang proposed this method... It made people think again but couldn't help but think again, they really didn't want to see that Zhuang Liuer... so restless, jumping around beside him.

However, no one said anything for a while.

Luo Shui took the initiative to change the subject, looked up to the left and right: "Where's Miss Qing?"

"I went to the west courtyard and sent clothes to those Fanniangs."

Luo Shui nodded.

I also know that the New Year's Eve is about to come, and a batch of new clothes have just been made in the mansion recently. This is also my adult's preference, and I like to see the girls around me dress better.

So he said again: "Your Excellency said it at breakfast, I won't go out today, freehand, let's go over later and talk to Your Excellency about the New Year's Eve."

"It's hard to rest for a day, let's rest more." But Xieyi disagreed, and remembered that yesterday, when his lord came back from the palace, his mood seemed to be a little different: "Let's wait a little later, there will be a batch of various grains to send Come in, I want to see for myself. Sister Luoshui, just take care of lunch."

Luo Shui nodded: "Yes."

I promised, but then I remembered: "My lord said, let's prepare an annual gift for Mr. Hua today and send it to Mingzhou. I'm worried that it will be late, so let's start tomorrow. The other families are all in the capital. Too fast."

Xie Yi wrote it down: "Then I will discuss it with He Xuan later, and make a list to show to the adults. There are still manpower, and I have to choose a few capable boys."

Liangqiu Liuniang said again at this time: "Isn't it safer to let Zhao Xu choose a few soldiers?"

"No, they are all officers and soldiers of the Arch Guard Division." Shaking his head, Xie Yi patiently explained: "Although our family is the royal family, we should be more cautious after all."

Liu Bai also offered advice: "Choose a few family members who are well-educated and polite... Speaking of which, my lord really doesn't even have a guest staff."

Xieyi said again: "It's not suitable."

The identity of the royal family may seem beautiful, but it is actually embarrassing.

Now...the grace is infinite, who knows the future?Therefore, it is always right to be cautious.

Luo Shui smiled, and said softly, "Our family...doesn't need it."

Luo Shui could tell that if his lord wanted to take in some guests and staff, he would have already taken a bunch of them.

Furthermore, it seems confiscated, but in fact...the number of those who have been scattered is unknown.This seems to be confiscated, but when it is actually used, it is much better than the one kept at home.

Liu Bai obviously didn't understand the deep meaning of Luo Shui's words, but he laughed along and glanced at Liangqiu and Liu Niang: "Our family doesn't need it, a group of, uh, female secretary."

The phrase 'female secretary' is still occasionally heard from my own adults.

Everyone listened to what Liu Bai said, and if you think about it again, it's not really like this. From school calligraphy and drawing to writing books and making classics, the groups of women in the family are no worse than the scholars outside.If it's bad, it's a man's body.

"My daughter's family is at a disadvantage."

Suddenly someone read a sentence, everyone looked over, it was Li Sanniang.

Li Sanniang also raised her head, her watery eyes swept around, seeing everyone looking at her, she was embarrassed: "Did I... say it?"

Lu Bai, who happened to be opposite her, had a sullen little face, suppressed a smile, and nodded heavily.

Lin Xiaoyu, who doesn't know how to embroider, can only sit on the outside and pass the needles and threads to the sisters, laughs, but silently, and remembers the strange words of his own adults yesterday, saying that everything... is a debt and needs to be repaid.

Now, this matches up.

On the other hand, Xie Yi reprimanded: "What are you talking about? We are serving your lord. If your lord is well, in turn, we will be well."

Li Sanniang's face was already red, and she lowered her head: "It's so freehand, don't say it, it's my slip of the tongue."

The corner of Luo Shui's mouth couldn't hide a smile, but it helped to change the topic: "Since the gift is going to be delivered tomorrow, let's explain it now, or let Zhao Xu go and get the boat ready. I'm afraid He Xuan is not familiar with this matter."

"That too."

Xieyi responded, put down the embroidery needle, stood up, but turned to Liu Bai: "It's the end of the year, you don't always hide in the house to embroider this, there are a lot of things at home, and I will send some of the house's collection later." The account book, you guys can help sort it out."

"Sister, there are people who know numbers in the left and right courtyards," Liu Bai complained reluctantly, but when he saw Xie Yi glaring at him, he immediately shrank his head, nodded and agreed, "Okay."

In fact, I also understand.

Letting this matter out is equivalent to letting go of all the management rights of the others, and it will not be easy to take it back.

Xieyi left, and Luoshui soon left too.

Liu Bai focused on embroidering for a while, then looked up and saw a certain sack sitting on the outside, quietly helping to deliver the needle and thread, looking enviously at the bright red clothes in front of him, waving his hands to chase away: "Go to the back, guard the adults, Don't be here anymore, it will annoy you when you see it."
