Sir, can you marry me?

Chapter 181

"Crystal, you go to the kitchen later and ask the kitchen steward to prepare silver chopsticks for me. Ivory chopsticks are too slippery and easy to break." Ling Yuxuan said coldly.Silver can detect most poisons.

"Yes, my lord." Crystal said tremblingly.Master Ling was always gentle and refined in front of his wife and them, but today he got angry, and his whole person became cold and majestic, which made her look scared and her legs trembled a little.

"Wenqing, did I scare you just now?" Ling Yuxuan grabbed Xiao Wenqing's hand with his backhand, and asked in a gentle tone, with a hint of worry hidden in his eyes.He never exposed his cold and fierce side in front of Xiao Wenqing and his family members.

"No, because I know you are not targeting me." Xiao Wenqing smiled at Ling Yuxuan, "No matter what you are, you are my husband." People are multifaceted, and Yuxuan just has a few more sides.Since he can change from the taciturn, cold-hearted and hot-hearted like Brother Zhao to the gentle and elegant, it is not surprising that he becomes vicious, cruel and majestic again.

Ling Yuxuan was in a good mood immediately, and said softly to Xiao Wenqing: "Let's eat." Then, he put a piece of sauce-flavored pork ribs into Xiao Wenqing's bowl.

The mother's kindness is so clever, if Wenqing hadn't been walking around with her godmother Xu Dasao and the others, Wenqing would not have known what was going on until she had a miscarriage without an experienced woman around her to remind her.A few days ago, he "made" a small piece of old wild ginseng that Wen Qing took in the kitchen, and sent it to the pharmacist in Tai Hospital for examination. The pharmacist said that it was authentic wild ginseng, and taking this kind of wild ginseng would not cause spermatorrhea and women would not suffer from uterine bleeding , nourishing essence and strengthening yang, beautifying and beautifying, even the emperor and concubines take it, so he is very relieved, and now he feels that he still needs to ask about the dosage.

"Yuxuan, she is your mother, you have to endure everything." Xiao Wenqing persuaded, put two pieces of black fungus in Ling Yuxuan's bowl.She had already discovered that Yuxuan liked to eat this dish, so she didn't specifically tell the kitchen not to serve this dish again.

Ling Yuxuan stared at his favorite black fungus, then put it on the table, and said, "I won't eat it."

Xiao Wenqing laughed dumbfounded, and said: "I'm not suitable for eating, you don't have such a taboo, eat it, lest mother already know her intentions have been seen through by us, and start thinking about other ways."

Ling Yuxuan felt that what she said made sense, so he took the initiative to stick his chopsticks into the dish of green pepper sliced ​​meat and black fungus.In fact, he has always preferred this dish, but now that he thinks that eating too much black fungus is not good for pregnant women, he suddenly loses his appetite.

Coaxing Xiao Wenqing to go back to the room for lunch break, Ling Yuxuan walked out of the dormitory to the courtyard, looked around at the servants in his courtyard with his hands behind his hands, and said sharply, "Ding Bo, where is Ding Bo?"

The old servants who served Ling Yuxuan in the Fushouyuan found Ling Yuxuan's serious and dignified face, and they all knew that he was in a very bad mood at the moment, so they shrank back.Someone knew where the steward Ding Bo was, and sent word quickly.After a while, Ding Bo trotted all the way over, bowed panting and said, "My lord, are you looking for me?"

Ling Yuxuan nodded, and said: "I'm tired of the chef's skills in Fuchu. You must find me a chef with good craftsmanship before tomorrow. No matter the salary, you must know a lot and have rich experience. Also, I think the maids around Madam There are too few wives, go to the matchmaker and pick eight young maids between the ages of 16 and [-]. The ones with a death contract are the best. I also need to hire two mature maids who have given birth to several children. This, the employment salary can be twice as high as that of ordinary servants." He decided to replace the maids and servants in his yard as soon as possible except for the crystal agate green calyx.

Ding Bo was surprised by Ling Yuxuan's order, but immediately said: "Yes, my lord."

Cook or something, he immediately went to the major restaurants in the capital to poach jobs.How dare the owner of the restaurant not let go of the chef that the prime minister's mansion favors?The status of a chef in the prime minister's mansion is higher than that of a chef in a restaurant, and the job is free and the salary is higher, so the chef in the restaurant must be willing.It is easier to buy a little maid who is sold out for life, a mature servant who has experience in raising several children... this can only be told to look around for the maid.

When the steward Ding Bo left, Ling Yuxuan looked around and shouted, "Nanfei."

Soon, a guard in black with a sword came in quickly from the courtyard, cupped his hands and said, "My lord."

Ling Yuxuan was equipped with guards with knives like other officials in Daqing, but unlike other officials, his guards were not from the army, but orphans raised by the prime minister's mansion, and then came to Ling Yuxuan as legal guards as soldiers.Although the imperial court allows officials of the fourth rank and above to hire guards registered by the imperial court to protect themselves in order to prevent officials from raising private soldiers, but in fact, officials who are truly powerful and not afraid of being exposed will still cultivate dead soldiers who are only loyal to themselves. Then get a soldier status and "hire" him as your bodyguard forever.

"Nan Fei, come to me." Ling Yuxuan ordered.

The young guard Nan Fei immediately took two steps forward and stood in front of Ling Yuxuan with a slight bow.Ling Yuxuan lowered his head and gave him some instructions in a low voice.He said: "Yes, my lord." After finishing speaking, he quickly stepped back.

I saw this guard named Nan Fei again.

Standing by the bedroom window, Jing Jing looked at the tall and thin figure, and couldn't help being curious.She remembered that when she was in Hanlin Mansion, Lord Liu's four guards rarely entered the back house. Unexpectedly, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lord Ling's guards often followed him into the back house.Is this the difference between civil servants and military officials?Are the bodyguards of military officials better than the bodyguards of civilian officials?Are the guards of third-rank officials better than those of fourth-rank officials?
