Chapter 21

At dawn the next day, Qingmei was woken up by Zhang's mother.Fortunately, she was used to getting up early, and she went to bed early yesterday, so the fatigue from the journey was almost eliminated.

"Miss, after returning home, it is essential to greet you every day." Mother Zhang thought for a while, and quickly added, "It is enough to perform the Wanfu salute when greeting you." The young lady's mother will become a joke in the house sooner or later.Before the prestige accumulated in the past is wiped out by Qingmei, it is better to say hello to Qingmei in advance, and just ask this young lady to show some face!

Qingmei still appreciated Zhang's mother's face, even though Zhang's mother and a maid helped her change her clothes and comb her hair, she didn't make a sound.In the past at the Biezhuang, she didn't like other people to intervene in matters such as getting Dongqiao to help with an ancient hairstyle and dressing.

When she came to Xu's house, Qingmei was not the first one.Aunt He and Aunt Zhang, who met a few times yesterday, came over early in the morning to set up rules and serve Mrs. Xu.But Qingyou, Qingran and Qingfang in the East and West Wings hadn't come over yet, Qingmei glanced at Zhang's mother beside her, and Zhang's mother quickly looked away.

——It’s true that she called the lady early, but it’s also for the sake of the lady.

"Greetings to mother." Qingmei bowed politely.

Mrs. Xu handed the teacup in her hand to Mrs. He, waved her to step aside, and said to Qing Mei with a smile, "Mei Er really has a heart. You have been tired all the way, and you never thought that you would be the first one here today, your sister They're not up yet."

After saying this, the room was silent for a while.

Ms. Zhang sighed in her heart—hey... I didn't expect that she would fall into the hands of a teenage girl Pianzi. Anyway, it's broken now, so I just watched this mother and daughter fight coldly. !
The maid, Lan Xin, came to serve tea, and Mrs. Xu let Qingmei sit down.Qingmei picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"This is the tea from the Biezhuang. Meier is satisfied with it?"

"En." Qingmei put down her teacup.Counting the time silently in my heart, I haven't eaten breakfast yet, life is too unhealthy!
"Since you like it, let Lan Xin bring some to your house later. You just came back from Biezhuang. If you have something to eat, just tell your mother if you have those habits."

"Well, thank you."

Not to mention, once the mood is different, it is quite interesting to watch the mother and daughter.Zhang's mother adjusted her mentality very quickly, she must also be a long-lived person.

At this time, Qingyou and Qingran also came to pay their respects.Qingyou has always been raised under Xu's name, and has a lot of affection for Xu.Back then, Mrs. Xu brought her here not only because Qingyou's biological mother, Aunt Hu, had gone early, but also because Qingyou's horoscope was extremely beneficial to Lin Yuanye.Coincidentally, since Qing You was raised under her name, Yuan Ye did not often get sick, so Xu Shi liked Qing You very much, and regarded Qing You as a half-law daughter from the bottom of her heart.

Qingyou and Qingran obviously dressed up specially when they came here today.Although he was wearing half-worn clothes, the workmanship was very delicate, so that he would not steal Qingmei's limelight, nor would he appear to be rude to Mrs. Xu.

"Qingyou (Qingran) greets his wife." The two bowed gracefully.

Mother Zhang couldn't help but sigh, Qingmei did the same Wanfu ceremony as if someone owed her [-] hanging; but now these two young ladies are here to salute, they are really beautiful and dignified.This person is really incomparable!

Qingyou raised her head and looked at Mrs. Xu in front of her, and couldn't help smiling playfully, "Hey, Madam seems to be a little unusual today."

"What's unusual, people are old, it's like this every day."

"Today, my wife's complexion is much more rosy, and I dare not stand too close to you, my wife."

Qingran sneered in her heart, this flattery is too clumsy!Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xu was very happy, "Aunt He said the same thing just now, you guys are so sweet."

Three people become a tiger, with Xu's suspicious character, one person must be flattering, but two people who came at different times praised it, so naturally it is the truth.

"But thanks to Lan Xin's ingenuity, I don't know what method she used. After mixing the nectar and applying it on the face, it's quite comfortable. I'll let Lan Xin teach you guys tomorrow, so that I won't hide it if I get something good gone."

"Thank you ma'am."

The aunts and ladies in the room all echoed and covered their faces with smiles.

Zhang's mother glanced at Lan Xin behind Xu Shi calmly, thinking that this girl would be soft when she took money from Qing You and He Shi.Revealing Xu's new face-protecting method, not only getting a reward from the young lady, but also making Xu feel that her method is really effective, and coaxing these people to be happy, really killing three birds with one stone, What a clever and clever maid.

Aunt Zhang behind Xu's smile was not so heartfelt.She naturally thought of what Zhang's mother was thinking, and she could blame herself for not being as well-informed as Mrs. He and the others, and her daughter Qingran also failed to please her.

"Go get some nectar." Mrs. Xu ordered, and the maid at the side immediately went into the room.Not long after, some servants and servants came to answer one after another.

After the aunts got their things, they chatted for a while, then got up and said, "Madam is busy, so we will go back first."

"Mmm." Mrs. Xu didn't stay any longer.

Although the aunts came early in the morning to set the rules, they could see that Mrs. Xu didn't make things difficult for them, and even rewarded them with nectar before leaving.Liang Feng at the side felt that the wife in the mansion might not be as scary as he thought, and really hoped that the lady and wife could get along well.

"Mei'er, stay here." Seeing Qingmei get up, Xu said immediately.

Qingmei sighed helplessly——when can I have breakfast!
"Mei'er, you just came back home. Zhang's mother is getting old, and she can't be scrupled in some places. Xingfang and the others are a little edgy again. I will reward you with blue heart to be the big maid, and I will arrange two other maids to go there together." ,how?"

Qingmei was too lazy to say "um", so she just nodded her head in agreement.

Mrs. Xu said again, "The two little maids you brought from the Biezhuang, although Mother Wang taught them for a while, they were not taught from childhood after all. You are a prostitute daughter, and your status is naturally more noble than other sisters. If the two little maids lose their status because of their wrong doings, then the loss outweighs the gain. Why don't they put them here with me first, let Mama Wang train them well, and then send them to you."

After the words fell, Liangfeng and Dongqiao's faces turned pale.Dongqiao clutched the hem of his clothes tightly, she didn't want to stay with his wife.It wasn't enough to be called by Xingfang and the others along the way, if he stayed in his wife's room after returning home now, Dongqiao could imagine how miserable the consequences would be with his eyes closed!Liangfeng also lost her mind, after all, the decisions of the masters are beyond the control of the two little maids, so I can only hope that the young lady can keep them!But the young lady just came back, and the wife's move was also out of kindness. If there was a gap between the young lady and the wife because of the two of them, then... then what should I do!

"No need." Qingmei didn't want to directly refuse.

Xu's smile faltered slightly.

"Since Mama Wang was able to teach them well in Biezhuang before, Mama Wang will definitely teach them better when she returns to the mansion. She taught them in Biezhuang and she taught them back in the mansion, so she also taught them in my yard. There are many people and things on the mother's side. If Dongqiao and Liangfeng come to the mother's place, if they cause trouble for the mother, it will be the daughter's fault. When others see it, they will definitely say that the daughter can't teach and teach the maid."

Good... What a eloquent girl!

Qingmei stood up, "If mother has nothing else to do, my daughter will leave."

Mrs. Xu quickly returned to normal, "That's all right, I'm relieved to have Mama Zhang and Lan Xin taking care of you, let's go back."

It wasn't until they returned to Yilan Pavilion where Qingmei lived that Liangfeng and Dongqiao gradually came back to their senses, as if they had come back from the gate of hell.Thinking about today's incident, Xu's house must be one of the two lingering nightmares.

Mother Zhang thought more about it. Did the miss win or the wife win today?Sigh, Miss is too ignorant, she offended his wife just because of two little maids on the first day back home.Fortunately, Lan Xin didn't refuse his wife's offer, otherwise the relationship between mother and daughter would be even more rigid.

The first thing I do when I get back home is of course to have breakfast.

"Tomorrow, if you want to say hello, go after breakfast."

Mother Zhang nodded with a smile, "Yes. This is the first time Miss greets me, and my wife naturally stayed a little longer. Miss, this crab porridge is good, please try it more."

Qingmei's face was ashen all morning, and then returned to normal - expressionless.

After she finally had her stomach full, Lan Xin brought Ziyuan and Zifu appointed by the Xu family to meet her.The three of them were all selected by Mrs. Xu after picking and picking. They were all tight-lipped and sincere to her.

In this way, together with Liangfeng Dongqiao, there are five servant girls serving Qingmei at the same time.Mama Zhang was also sent by the Xu family to take care of the young lady at this time, so she, an old man, was supposed to be in charge of the five maids.But Zhang's mother had another thought in her heart—maybe the wife didn't particularly trust herself.After all, she is exquisite in all aspects in the mansion, and with her previous habit in the palace, some things will only rot in her stomach if she knows about them. She will not report everything to Mrs. Xu in every detail like Lan Xin and the other three. .

"Well, you can go down now, just ask Mama Zhang what you want to do." After Qingmei finished speaking, she was ready to leave.Zhang's mother was wandering for nine days, seeing Qingmei get up, she quickly supported her, and blinked desperately.Qingmei stared at her blankly, although she didn't understand why the corners of her eyes suddenly cramped, she sat back.

Mother Zhang wiped her sweat, so she couldn't be distracted for a moment!
"You guys are big maidservants now. I don't need to explain what to say and what not to say in the mansion." Mama Zhang coughed a little, "Madam asked you to serve Miss, from now on Miss is your master. If I find out who is talking behind your back..." Mother Zhang raised the corners of her mouth slightly, "Our lady is a generous master, but the rules still have to be established, understand?"

"The servant girl understands."

Mama Zhang nodded in satisfaction and waved her hand back. Cool Breeze brought out a wooden plate with three delicate purses on it, each of which contained a reward of one or two coins.

"Thank you, Miss."

Qingmei looked at it, made sure that Zhang's mother had finished speaking, and immediately got up and left, without even saying the word "exemption", leaving Lan Xin and the three of them kneeling there.

Zhang's mother was sweating in her heart, so she said again, "Get up."

Lan Xin stood up, not annoyed at all.His eyes were bent like two little crescents, and he said sweetly, "Thank you, Mama Zhang."
