Mrs. Pin, one of the Red House

"Come in quickly, don't hurry to hold him." Jia Min was startled, covered her mouth so she didn't cry out, and then shouted recklessly.

The maid waiting at the door was also clever. When she heard Jia Min's words, her voice was out of tune. Without saying a word, she pushed open the door and rushed up to stop him.

Jia Min was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he sat on the side without saying a word. Xue Ying came in and looked at her and didn't dare to say anything. She just poured a cup of tea and handed it to Jia Min with a lacquered wooden tray.

Jin Cai just cried, with tears running down her cheeks, she broke free from the restraint of a few maids, went over and kowtowed a few times, "I'm sorry, old slave."

Jia Min looked at Jin Cai and felt a bit cold, "You are really loyal."

Jin Cai shook her head, "This old slave has a family and a child... I have no choice but to do so. If the girl really wants to press on, this old slave really can only apologize with death."

Jia Min was silent for a long time, but she couldn't bear it anymore, so she sighed and said, "That's all." After speaking, she turned and walked out.

Later, when the three of Lin Hai's family finished their dinner and the autumn breeze was cool at night, when the three of them were walking in the yard, Jia Min said, "I think Nanny Tao and Uncle Jin are a bit old."

Lin Hai hummed and stopped, waiting for Jia Min's next words.

"I thought, it's time for them to go back and enjoy a few years of happiness." Jia Min smiled, brushing over the blooming sweet-scented osmanthus, slightly lowered her head, and the fragrance of the flowers filled the air, "Mother Tao still watched me grow up Yes, Yuanyang is also the most honorable servant girl by my mother's side, even if she lets her go, it won't be a big problem."

Seeing Lin Hai's hesitation, she said, "I think this is a family matter after all, and others won't say anything."

Lin Hai just smiled, "Maybe it's still a bit inappropriate."

Jia Min pursed her lips. Naturally, she knew that something was wrong. She was a married girl, so it was not appropriate to take care of family affairs.

But now that she asked Jin Cai about it, she had no choice but to take care of it.

After all, Nanny Tao has the gift of nurturing her.

Seeing Jia Min's expression, Lin Hai felt that there was no need to tangle with Jia Min on such a small issue, so he simply followed Jia Min's wishes, "It's fine as long as you like it."

Jia Min curled his lips slightly, "You said it lightly."

"Look, I said you can do whatever you want, and you still say me?"

"That's not what I mean," Jia Min quickly explained to Lin Hai with a smile, "Master, you have an idea, I have a better idea."

Then the topic changed, "Also, Xueyue's mother is ill, I granted her leave, and now there is still more than half of the journey to go, master, you said that this manpower, Zheng'er, Daiyu and the others are at the time of employing people, especially It's Zheng'er, just when someone needs to watch, tell me, do you want to buy some more and serve them personally?"

Lin Hai pondered for a moment, "I remember that there are four second-class maids around Daiyu, isn't that enough? How about moving the people around her over?"

Jia Min couldn't hold her hand, and said with a smile: "Master, you don't know, Daiyu is not in good health, and there are indispensable people around her to serve her, and the person who serves her must be a meticulous person, what do you think?"

"Madam is right." Lin Hai didn't care about these trifles at all, "What are you going to do?"

"I'm thinking, the family doesn't have enough children, and they can't quench their thirst in the long distance. Why don't you find a prostitute in Jinling and buy one or two maids who look good and can handle things quickly, what do you think?" Jia Min asked tentatively.

Lin Hai naturally agreed without any surprises, "I know that you have always been a decent person, so I will do as you say, and you know what you are doing, and you have a plan, why are you still timid now?"

Jia Min's smile deepened, "I don't think it's better to be more thoughtful, but that's what you said, master, and everything will be done as I said."

Lin Hai squinted his eyes, and felt that there was something wrong with this sentence, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he smiled awkwardly after thinking for a long time, and walked towards the artificial lake with Jia Min.

Jia Min got Lin Hai's rant, so she ordered Nanny Tao to arrange the matter, and at the same time wrote a letter to Mother Jia in Beijing, saying that she felt that Nanny Tao and his wife were old and couldn't bear them to work like this, so it's better to let Liang go, or Living in the mansion, still taking care of the family affairs, Jia's mother is paying attention to mandarin ducks at this time, and her daughter opened her mouth, there is no reason why she disagrees, not only brought the deed of sale, but also asked Xifeng to take 100 taels of silver Sending it over so that the two of them can take care of themselves is a later story.

Let's talk about Tao Nanny's side, since Jia Min spoke, she was extraordinarily dedicated in her work. In less than two days, she found two pretty girls from the matchmaker and brought them to Jia Min.

Coincidentally, Daiyu was there that day, and she was talking to Jia Min, when the servant girl informed her that Mother Tao had come.

Jia Min smiled and said, "Why don't you come in soon?"

Nanny Tao led two little girls who were dressed in the same way and walked in. They were all cleaned up, and they all looked neat.

Jia Min stared at them, "They are all beautiful children."

The two little girls are not ordinary people, not to mention that they are generally handsome, and the one on the left has a red mole between the eyebrows, which is even more charming and conspicuous.

Jia Min smiled and pulled the little girl with the red mole between her eyebrows over to take a closer look, "This red mole looks really good."

Ask again: "Where is the family from?"

The little girl shook her head, her voice trembling unconsciously, a little softly, "I don't remember, I followed when I was a child... I don't know where my family is."

Upon hearing this, Jia Min frowned immediately, and looked at Nanny Tao questioningly, her tone was unavoidably serious, "I said that I want someone with a clean family background to serve my brothers and sisters."

Tao Nanny smiled and said: "I went to see the matchmaker that day, and I happened to bump into a human trafficker who was selling people on the street. Seeing how pitiful this child is, he is also a beautiful person. I thought it was a pity that it was just so, so I borrowed it from my aunt... In your name, Ma'am, don't blame me for making my own decisions."

In front of Daiyu, Nanny Tao inevitably had to change her words.

But the girl who has been called for so many years, how can it be so easy to get along.

Jia Min picked up the tea bowl on the side, "Forget it, it's a good deed." Then he asked, "How many taels of silver did you spend?"

Tao Nanny smiled and said, "Not many." She stretched out her hand and gestured, "This is the number."

"20 taels?" Jia Min felt that maybe it was because she had been married for too long, and she was a little unable to keep up with the thinking of Jia's people.

She didn't even know what to say.

Nanny Tao raised her eyebrows and looked at her.

Jia Min said: "It's all right." Then she ordered Xueying to bring the money to Nanny Tao, and then took the two of them down to teach Mandarin and Yangzhou's local dialect first, without mentioning the rules.

##

On October [-]th, the autumn wind picked up.

Before Maoshi that day, Ning Yun was called over by the Zhao family and the Wang family again.

Holding the invitation card, Mrs. Zhao felt that this flimsy piece of paper was extremely heavy, "Last time I thought it was inappropriate to call Lan Yun Xiangyun, so I rejected it, but now I sent another post."

She showed it to Mrs. Wang.

Wang glanced at her with a smile, then the smile froze on her face, and said with some embarrassment: "This time I invited Lan Yun and Ning Yun, and there is no Xiangyun's name."

Mrs. Zhao snorted coldly, "Otherwise, I'll just call the child over, what else are I talking about with you?"

"It's really a bit tricky," Wang said, "I still have to go, but if I go, outsiders don't know, they think we two..."

"That's all I'm worried about." Zhao shrugged helplessly, "Headache, I've never seen such a weird family like theirs."

"It's not really weird." Ning Yun said with a smile, "Auntie, do you still remember the marriage that Big Sister and the Seventh Young Master of the Wei family have made?"

Mrs. Zhao raised her eyebrows and looked very serious, "Who leaked the news?"

"Of course it's the Wei family." Ning Yun said.

Now that Wei Yansheng has lost power in the court, and the emperor has the idea of ​​abdicating, he is now forced to beg for bones. Naturally, the most important thing for Mrs. Xue is to settle this marriage.

"Speaking of which, the current form of the Wei family is so bad?" Wang felt a little unbelievable.

The wealthy family of the Wei family in Fujian is not only a meritorious family, but also a scholarly family. Although it is not as good as the four kings and eight princes, it is also a well-known family.

"Who knows." Zhao said, "Just look at when the Crown Prince is in position, if Wei Concubine's position is high, it proves that Wei Yansheng has completely lost power. Do not move."

Then he knocked on the invitation, "Speaking, what do you think? Go or not?"

Looking at the invitation, Mrs. Wang felt a bit troubled.

It's not a problem to go, and it's not a problem not to go. This is really difficult.

Ning Yun looked at Mrs. Wang, then at Mrs. Zhao, seeing that both of them were frowning, and said, "It's better to say that Eldest Sister is not in good health recently, how about letting her pretend to be sick at home for a few days?"

It is inappropriate to bring Xiangyun to the past.

But if Xiangyun doesn't go, it's even more inappropriate for her and Lan Yun to go alone. This is to keep people talking.

Mrs. Zhao thought about it, and always felt that the idea of ​​pretending to be sick was inappropriate, so she took the case and decided, "Last time, I said that you were unwell, so I pushed it away. It's really inappropriate to say that again this time. In my opinion, it's better to let it go like this. What do you think of Xiangyun going to Jia's mansion for a few days?" She looked at Mrs. Wang.

After thinking about it, Wang nodded, "I think it's very good."

Ning Yun said: "If I don't have anything to do, the second sister and I will go to the eldest sister first."

"Well, you go." Wang nodded with a smile, "It's autumn, don't stay in your yard until the wind blows." He adjusted the wreath on Ning Yun's neck, "The color is a bit dark, Someday I will find someone to fry it."

"Remind me to think about it." Only then did Wang sit back and continue discussing with Zhao, and Ning Yun left without staying.

As soon as she said that she was going to Jia's mansion, Xiangyun immediately smiled. She has been very close to Tanchun and the others in recent days, and Jia's mother also likes her unrestrained temperament, so she is naturally willing to go there.

"I know that the third aunt is the best." Xiangyun smiled, she put down the work of squeezing the mountains in her hands, and pulled Ning Yun's east chamber to talk.

When Cuilu saw her, she couldn't help but sighed, and resignedly took Xiangyun's work, and helped to trace the shape, and waited for Xiangyun to embroider it herself.

Ning Yun glanced at it, and said with a smile, "Big Sister also uses her hands occasionally," and then lowered her voice, "I'll have to do some crafting in the future."

Xiangyun blushed, "What nonsense."
