Maid of a wealthy family

Chapter 16
After speaking, let Lan Hongen and the housekeeper sit down, Mr. Liu Tuan poured a glass of wine, raised his glass and said: "My dear brother, Liu knows that he has little talent and learning, and I hope that my dear brother will support you in the future."

Lan Hongen looked at Mr. Liu Tuan, and replied: "Brother Tuan Zong is too modest, just tell me what you want!"

The head of the regiment said: "Okay, if you don't burn fake incense in front of real people, I'll tell you straight. I heard that the governor and my brother are classmates?"

Lan Hongen said: "This is true! I have been classmates for four years, and I love brothers and sisters. Brother Tuan, you..."

The head of the regiment hastily said: "Nothing! Nothing! Brother, you know that humble positions are directly entrusted by the governor. In the future, I hope that my brother will speak a few words of kindness for the humble position in front of the governor."

After hearing this, Lan Hongen understood the purpose of Mr. Tuan asking him today, so he smiled lightly and said, "Brother Tuan Zong, don't worry! Brother Tuan Zong is clean and honest, and has outstanding achievements. Why can't Lan be the beauty of an adult for such a trivial matter!"

President Liu Tuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said happily, "Okay, with the words of my virtuous brother, I can rest assured."

After dinner and another round of tea, the country gentry on the field came to accompany and gossip for a while. It was nearly dusk.The sun was just below the horizon, and the sky looked like wildfire, but the temperature had dropped quite a bit.Lan Hongen and the butler bid farewell to President Liu Tuan and the gentry of Liujiangchang, and walked home.

Walking on the road, Lan Hongen looked at the rosy clouds cast by the setting sun on the Lanjia River, and remembered what Mr. Liu Tuan asked him to do, and suddenly burst out laughing, saying: "How dare a mere Mr. Tuan, a rough warrior, Show off in front of me; fish and meat people, but also expect me to speak well in front of the governor, how ridiculous! Ridiculous."

The butler hastily stepped forward, approached Lan Hongen, looked at his master and said meaningfully: "Master, he can replace him!"

Lan Hongen seemed to have been stabbed by something, turned his head hastily, and asked in surprise: "What?"

The butler smiled and said in a low voice: "Master, the governor came to invite you to come out of the mountain last time. The servants thought that the master could agree." The increase or decrease will inevitably make the master overqualified.Although the general position of this regiment is not as good as that of the governor, he is also a prince, so majestic and majestic!You don't have to stick to the teachings of your ancestors.Think about it, master, if master's great-grandfather did not become an official in the court, could he leave such a huge family business for him?Sir now! "Shi Renyi is well-known by the people, and the governor is here. It can be said that the timing, location, people and the master are all in one place. The master can't miss the opportunity!"

After hearing this, Lan Hongen smiled lightly and didn't answer anything.He looked at the distance of the river, everything was shrouded in an orange light and shadow.The gurgling of the water and the swaying evening wind filled him with a kind of smug passion in this hot July evening.However, he turned his head and said unceremoniously to the big housekeeper: "Don't talk nonsense, let the world call me a heartless person."

After hearing this, the butler immediately smiled knowingly. He smiled brightly, and replied: "Yes, my lord, this servant understands everything!" As he spoke, he looked at Lan Hongen mysteriously again.Then he left with Lan Hongen.Along the way, the two of them didn't say anything, but their hearts felt like the sky at dusk, warm with a hazy purple light.

After returning to Lan Mansion, Lan Hongen saw that girl named Dacui squatting on the steps in front of the middle living room, pounding something in a small stone mortar nest just as he walked past the upper living room.The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the girl's chest and face from the side, making her round shoulders, high breasts and charming face seem to be coated with a layer of light, making her look extraordinarily charming.

When Lan Hongen saw the girl's body, his eyes widened again.He remembered that on the night of the Qixi Festival, he had come to find this girl to play with intentionally, but by accident, he took another little girl who was fierce.Now, that desire was aroused in his heart, so he went straight to the girl and asked, pretending not to understand: "Hey, what are you doing?"

Both he and the big housekeeper smelled a mixture of young reeds, artemisia leaves and wormwood.

Lan Hongen asked, but his eyes were fixed on Dacui's chest that trembled with the hands pounding the medicine vigorously, and there was already an impatient desire in his eyes.

Miss Dacui was concentrating on preparing the medicine, but she didn't see Lan Hongen and the butler coming in front of her, she blushed for a while, and opened her mouth not knowing how to answer.

The butler had seen the expression of his master long ago, smiled coldly in his heart, but suddenly stared at Da Cui and reprimanded loudly: "It's broad daylight, what's the point of squatting here making medicine?! Hurry up and take back your own In the room!" He said the words "your own room" with extra emphasis.

After hearing this, Miss Dacui seemed to have received a pardon, picked up the mortar and left.

Lan Hongen stared at Da Cui's back, feeling an inexplicable anger in his heart, and turned his head to look at the housekeeper with dissatisfaction.

The butler had an inscrutable smile on his face. He watched Miss Dacui walk into the alleyway and into his room, and then turned his head and said to Lan Hongen: "Master, don't you want to know what this girl is doing? Inside and outside the mansion, the master should really go and ask in person! Don't always push the big and small things to the slaves. 1 After finishing speaking, he looked at the master in front of him meaningfully.

After hearing this, Lan Hongen understood immediately. He smiled gratefully at the "roundworm" in his stomach, the housekeeper, and said, "Yes, yes, you have worried about a lot of things! I'll go and ask !"

The butler said: "Master, go quickly, the slave is busy with other things." After finishing speaking, he turned and entered the room.

Lan Hongen waited for the housekeeper to leave, then looked around, and saw that there were no other servants in the yard, so he quickly walked across the yard like a thief, and then through a side alley, to the house of Maid Dacui .

The door was not closed, Lan Hongen rushed into the room with one step, and closed the door with a "dong".

Miss Dacui raised her head in surprise when she heard the voice.When she saw clearly that it was the master, her body trembled like a leaf in the wind.She looked at Lan Horn with fearful and pitiful eyes, and her hands that pounded the medicine stopped moving.

Master Lan's eyes were burning with desire, he stared at Da Cui for a while, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He laughed "hehe", walked over in two steps, grabbed the girl's hand making medicine, and said, "Why didn't you answer me when I asked you just now?"

Da Cui was trembling, and after a while he stammered: "Gee Xi, Xi Juan, spring grass, herbal medicine..."

Lan Hongen stared at Da Cui's face closely, and asked again: "What's wrong with Xi Juan?" "

Dacui said: "I was slapped by the old lady, my face is swollen, swollen..."

Lan Hongen said: "It deserves it!" After saying that, Master Lan couldn't wait to hug Dacui. When Dacui saw him, he shivered and backed away, and said fearfully, "No. Master, I don't..."

Lan Hongen was a little unhappy, and said: "Why not? You think you are still a budding thing." As he said, he rushed over and hugged Miss Dacui without any explanation.

Miss Dacui struggled twice in his arms, but before she could break free, tears fell, and she said: "Master, I, I beg you, you are the master, don't, don't do this... I, I'm afraid."

Lan Hongen salivated and said, "Master thinks highly of you, what are you afraid of? Do you know why that Xi Juan was beaten?"

Dacui said: "She wanted to be a maid by the old lady's side, but she didn't succeed, so she was angry and scolded you, master..."

Lan Hongen interrupted her and said: "By the way, anyone who doesn't listen to the master will have no good fruit to eat! You serve the master well, and the master will let you be a maid by his wife's side in the future."

Dacui was beaten today as a trainee Juan, and the little hope in her heart was already shattered, so she said, "No, master, I don't want to go to the back garden!"

Master Lan couldn't bear it anymore, stared at Da Cui and said, "That's up to you! Tell you, if you don't make Master happy like last time, Master will kick you out tomorrow."

When Lan Hongen returned to the back garden, the setting sun had completely disappeared.There is a breeze blowing in the garden, and the air is cool and pleasant.As soon as he approached Quchi, he saw a girl talking with her mother by the lotus pond.Lan Horn's heart seemed to be touched by something.I saw that the girl was wearing a lotus-colored slit silk gown, with a fit and slender body, and her duck-egg-shaped face radiated a brilliance like a ripe apple in autumn in the afterglow of the setting sun.The two bare arms are round and round like lotus root joints.What's even more captivating is the girl's body wrapped in a tight robe, with sharp lines and distinct bumps, lively as if something jumped out of her body.Lan Hongen took a deep breath inexplicably, just after venting his lustful body, he couldn't help but feel something crispy, itchy and indescribable. After a long while, he couldn't make up his mind whether he should walk over.

At this time, it was the old lady who heard the footsteps, raised her head, and saw Lan Hongen.The old lady immediately said: "Hong En, come here."

Lan Horn just walked over.But at this time, he didn't look at the girl anymore, he just asked the old lady respectfully: "Mother, what's your order?"

The old lady said: "I don't have any instructions. It's just that there is a newcomer in the family, you come to get to know each other." Then she pointed to the chrysanthemum and introduced to Lan Hongen, "This is the one I invited to take care of me. It's called the chrysanthemum! You Take good care of her from now on."

Lan Hongen agreed with "yes", then he looked up at Chrysanthemum as if he had just discovered her.

The old lady pointed to Lan Hongen again and said to Chrysanthemum, "This is the master."

Chrysanthemum immediately bent down, bowed to Lan Hongen, and shouted respectfully: "Master!" After shouting, she raised her head, but met Lan Hongen's gaze, which was straight, pupil-like There was a light of surprise and ambiguity beating in it.Chrysanthemum has never seen such a gaze, especially a man with such unbending and mysterious gaze, she blushed immediately, and immediately lowered her head.

The old lady thought that Chrysanthemum was embarrassed, so she took Chrysanthemum's hand and said, "Girl, don't be afraid! We will be a family from now on, so you should be bold and don't be polite. If there is anything wrong with the master, just tell me."

Chrysanthemum looked at her toes and nodded.

Lan Hongen also said: "Mother, don't worry, I will treat her well."

The old lady said: "That's good, the family will stop talking about two different families!"

Just as he was talking, Wang Ma came over and asked for dinner.The old lady thought for a while and said, "Let's put it in the pavilion, it's cooler outside."

After hearing this, Wang Ma immediately went to move the table and stools to Tongming Pavilion, and then went to bring food.At this time, Ning Shi did not come to eat, so the old lady said: "Hong En, go and call your woman over for dinner!"

Lan Hongen agreed and went right away, but after a while, Lan Hongen came back and said, "Mom, let's eat! Huijuan said she feels uncomfortable and doesn't want to eat."

After hearing this, the old lady immediately asked, "Really? Could it be that you have a cold?"

Lan Horn said, "No, mother! She just said that she felt a little uncomfortable."

The old lady said: "It's fine if it's not!" Then she told Wang Ma: "Wang Ma, make a bowl of lotus seed soup for Madam, and I'll serve it later."

Wang Ma agreed, turned around and left.

After eating, Wang Ma came over to remove the dishes, tables and stools, and Chrysanthemum wanted to accompany the old man for a walk, but the old lady said, "Chrysanthemum, go back to your room and rest!"

Chrysanthemum agreed, turned around and was about to leave when she heard the old lady say to Lan Hongen: "Hong En, come to your mother's room, mother has something to say to you."

Lan Hongen also responded, and left with the old lady.Chrysanthemum turned her head and saw the old lady and the master entered the "Qia Garden", before she went out.

Walking to the Moon Gate, Chrysanthemum suddenly remembered that she should go to see her wife.The circle of black and blue color around the wife's eyes appeared in front of her eyes, and she was more convinced that the pain was buried in the wife's heart.Thinking of this, she exited the moon gate again and walked towards the "Banxia Hall" next to it.

After walking a few steps, Chrysanthemum stopped hesitantly again.She thought, since she just came here, she has never entered the master's and wife's room before, so is it appropriate to break in like this without waiting for the master and wife to call?Yes, I am a servant, so I shouldn't go in and out of the master and wife's room casually.Thinking about it, I stood for a while, then stepped back and walked into the Moon Gate.While walking upstairs, he pondered in his heart: "What's on Madam's mind?"

Of course Chrysanthemum couldn't figure it out.
