Chapter 2547

Because Xu Taiping had just returned to Beijing, the emperor granted him a three-day vacation, and then made other arrangements for his official position when he went to court. At this time, Xu Taiping had nothing to do, and he didn't rush to get up when he heard the woman's voice outside the house.

Because of the incidents that Cuihong caused before, Xu Taiping always locked the door from the inside when sleeping, and those women couldn't come in even if they were talking in the courtyard. He wasn't afraid of what they were trying to set up, but just listening to them talking made him feel upset , just want people to drive them out.

After lying down for a while, Xu Taiping was really hungry, and he didn't want to spend the rare three-day vacation on the bed. Xu Taiping got up, put on his clothes and shoes, opened the door, and saw five or six girls sitting in the yard. They were all maids from the Xu family's hometown, and they usually served in Xu's residence, but he never used maids by his side, and he never talked to them.

Seeing Xu Taiping come out, several servant girls hurriedly got up to pay their respects, "Sir, please greet your lord."

Xu Taiping asked, "Why are you here?"

Several servant girls laughed, and one of the oldest ones said: "Yesterday, the slaves and maids came to Beijing together with the ladies. The old lady saw that the servants seemed to be quite clever, so she asked the servants to come over and wait for Madam in a few days. Go through the door and wait in front of Madam."

Xu Taiping looked at a few people, but he never pays attention to those maidservants in Xu Mansion on weekdays, and he doesn't know what kind of temperament these few are, at most he just remembered which lady they were serving before, Xu Taiping said: "You should go back Serve your former master, I don't need it here, the new wife will bring her maids when she passes through the door, and she is not used to too many people from her predecessors."

A few servant girls shook their heads, "No, it was the old lady who sent the servants over. If the servants just go back like this, the old lady will blame her."

Xu Taiping didn't bother to talk to them, so he called the newly elected servant to replace Er Zhu and kicked out the maids.

Yesterday, after he saw through the old lady's thoughts, he always felt that the old lady had a purpose in everything she did. Although he couldn't say anything to the old lady because of his grandparents, it didn't hinder his opinion of the old lady in his heart. Naturally, he would not keep the person who sent it.

As soon as the courtyard door was closed, several maids were blocked outside, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay. They thought they were all beautiful, why didn't adults look down on any of them?You must know that the son in the mansion stared straight at them, and the old lady refused to agree to accepting them as concubines a few times, so why does your lord look down on them?

After thinking about it again and again, I felt that Xu Taiping was afraid of his wife. Although he hadn't married yet, but he had Yingwuhou's mansion as his backer, even if he came from a bad background, he wouldn't be easy to mess with.

Xu Taiping called the boy to his side and asked, "Yuan Hong, who came last night? Why didn't you mention it?"

"The young one only found out early in the morning. The four young ladies of the Xu family arrived last night. At that time, the young one went to Yingwuhou Mansion with the adults. When she came back, the old lady didn't say anything. The adults didn't mention it when they knew about it, but the young ones only found out about it early this morning. I heard that these young ladies came to the capital to join the adults because they didn't want to marry in a small place, and wanted the adults to choose a house for them. Family."

Xu Taiping laughed and said: "Choosing a good marriage? I remember that Xiaoqi, Ba, and Jiu have all been engaged. Although Xiaoshi is not engaged, but she is only 12 years old and so eager to get engaged?"

Yuan Hong shook his head, "I don't know, I just heard that those ladies think that the husband's family that the Xu family chose for them is just a small businessman, and they want to come to the capital to let the adults choose an official family for them, and they will become official wives later. , and can help my natal brothers."
