Chapter 40: Between Smiles

Chapter 40
"Greetings to Madam." The beauties knelt and kowtowed together, and all kinds of voices, either charming or elegant, sounded in the hall.

Mrs. Lan looked up, and some beauties looked good even when kneeling, like dancing.The slender waist is really tight, like a willow swaying in the wind.

The beauties stood up after saluting, and stood with their heads bowed one by one, looking very submissive.

No one in the Founding Duke's Mansion knew about Mrs. Lan's temperament.If you don't know, you dare not be presumptuous.

Mrs. Lan's status lies there.

Mrs. Lan nodded at Xiaocui, Xiaocui understood, stood up with a smile, cleared her throat, "Madam is kind, I know that you are poor people who were separated from your family during the war, and I intend to help you to reunite with your family and share the family relationship Happy. If anyone among you remembers your relatives in your hometown and is willing to go home, stand on the far right; if you don’t remember your relatives in your hometown and is willing to obey your wife’s order to be married, then stand in the middle; if you don’t want this or that , those who still wish to stay in Qixiang Courtyard, stand on the left."

What?The beauties were dumbfounded and didn't react.

They are used to being sent around like vases by the rich and powerful. Suddenly a noble lady told them that you can go home and get married. I really can't believe it is true.

Xiao Cui pursed her lips and smiled, and said loudly: "Whether it is willing to go home to reunite with relatives, or willing to follow the madam's orders to marry someone to start a family, the madam will give 20 taels of silver. Those who are willing to go home will be used as travel expenses, and those who are willing Those who get married will be regarded as the wife's escort."

20 taels of silver is very valuable now, and can be exchanged for more than 2 Wen copper coins.With this as a dowry, it is very good to be able to marry a middle-class family and live in peace.This kind of prospect seems very attractive, but if you stay in Qixiang Garden, you may one day be favored by the founding father. If you are favored, you will be able to live a good life with rich clothes, fine food and boundless wealth.After going out, there was no such opportunity again.

The beauties hesitated, looking at me, I looked at you, unable to make up their minds for a while.

Mrs. Lan picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea slowly, a trace of impatience flashed in her eyes.If yesterday's hearing was all debauchery, who would bother with them?It's just that he has a kind heart and doesn't want to wrong someone with ambition.

Amidst the silence, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl in plain clothes stepped forward, and Mrs. Chonglan blessed her, "My wife's kindness is greatly admired by my family. My family has been separated from my relatives since childhood, and my parents I can’t even remember my hometown, and I’m willing to listen to my wife’s order to be married.”

This girl has an oval face, big and charming eyes, and an extremely beautiful appearance.

"Are you afraid that you won't be able to stand out when you have such an appearance? Why bother to give up on yourself." Among the beauties, quite a few felt sorry for her.According to the wife's orders, he is either a servant or a servant, at most a guard.How can such a husband compare with the founding father.

Mrs. Lan smiled slightly, "You stand up so quickly, don't you have no nostalgia for the Founding Duke's Mansion?"

The girl lowered her head, "It's been more than three years since the slave's family came to the Founding Duke's mansion, and I have never seen the Duke's face. Although I have enjoyed tea and food in Chang's family for more than three years, I am grateful, but I still have to plan for myself. of."

She said it very frankly, she has never met the founding father, and she has no hope of staying, so she might as well find another way out.

"What kind of person do you want to marry, tell me." Mrs. Lan said with a smile.

This young girl is charming, but her eyes are clear and upright, Madam Lan can't help feeling pity for her.

"All according to Madam's orders. If you ask my slave's wishes, as long as he is of good character, that's enough." The girl replied respectfully.

He didn't even mention his age and appearance, he only asked the man to have a good character.
