Mrs. Rebirth

When the two entered the study, Hong Yuan immediately served tea, lowered her eyebrows pleasingly, and left respectfully.

Zuo Shaoqing cautiously relegated him to wash the hut before, thinking that this gorgeous maid would ask the old lady to argue, but in the end she washed the hut for a full month without saying a word or complaining.

Seeing this, Zuo Shaoqing didn't want to embarrass a girl too much, so she transferred her to serve by her side.

After observing carefully for a period of time, I found that whether it was her or the other three young and beautiful girls, they were all very well-behaved, and they didn't try their best to climb onto the master's bed like in the backyards of other rich families.

Of course, this is closely related to Lu Zheng's integrity.

"Master Lu, isn't our maid a little too old? Shouldn't she be married?" Zuo Shaoqing asked loudly through the screen.

Since he married in, the study room has been divided into two parts, with a large screen for Zuo Shaoqing's dowry in the middle. The two work separately on the left and the right, and occasionally discuss a few words through the screen.

On the other side of the screen there was the rustling sound of flipping through papers, and it took Lu Zheng a long time to reply: "This kind of thing has nothing to do with me!"

Zuo Shaoqing put away the processed official documents, got up, walked around the screen, walked behind Lu Zheng, leaned on his shoulder and said, "You are more familiar with the guards in charge of this mansion, pick some for Hong Yuan and the others."

Lu Zheng wrote the last stroke, and handed the just-written memorial to Zuo Shaoqing, "It's better to take care of other people's private affairs when you have time."

Zuo Shaoqing took the memorial with one hand, read it carefully, and then frowned, "Is it possible to make gunpowder without a fuse?"

"The gunpowder you developed that day can only be buried in advance, and the fuse can be ignited from a long distance away, but if it is at sea, there is no such condition at all."

Zuo Shaoqing thinks about it too, once the gunpowder enters the water, it will lose its effectiveness, not to mention that the sea is unfathomable and there is no place to bury it.

"Then can we shorten the lead wire and throw it after lighting it?" Zuo Shaoqing moved a chair and sat next to Lu Zheng, pulled a piece of white paper and drew on it.

After a few strokes, a trebuchet-like thing appeared on the white paper, and Zuo Shaoqing was frowning and thinking about where to put the gunpowder.

Before, they simply wrapped a large amount of gunpowder, buried it in the ground, and left a long fuse, which seemed powerful, but it was not easy to carry, nor suitable for long-distance use.

If the range of this thing is shorter than that of a bow and crossbow, it will be completely useless, and no enemy will foolishly approach and stand still waiting for you to ignite the long fuse.

"For siege, the gunpowder is powerful enough. For defense, you have to calculate a safe distance, so that the enemy doesn't drive away and blow up your own city wall. As for the gunpowder placed on the warship, the most important thing is the range. "

The two studied carefully for a long time, and finally finalized the first draft. Whether it works or not will not be known until it is made and tested.

Lu Zheng pulled him onto his lap and sat down, and said with great interest, "Okay, now we can talk about the maidservant's marriage."

Zuo Shaoqing just said casually that he had no interest in being a matchmaker, but when he thought of marrying those four beautiful maids in the yard, he had to lift his spirits.

"In the huge Zhen Guo Gong Mansion, it is impossible to find four suitable unmarried men. There are none at home, but there are many families outside who want to marry the maids of the Zhen Guo Gong Mansion."

"Why bother?" Lu Zheng shouted, "Come here..."

Soon there was a knock on the door of the study, Luo Xiaoliu ran in erratically, caught a glimpse of the ambiguous posture of the two, quickly stopped and lowered his head and asked, "What are your orders?"

When facing Lu Zheng, Luo Xiaoliu was always uncontrollably nervous, not daring to be presumptuous in the slightest.

"Go to the butler and send a message to summon all the unmarried men in the mansion to Qinglu Garden."

Zuo Shaoqing immediately added: "You don't want servants, you need to be in charge, you don't want low-grade bodyguards, you have to have official positions, and you don't want those who are too short or too ugly. Let the steward pick and deliver them."

Luo Xiaoliu shuddered, and a bold thought came to his mind: Could it be that Mr. Lu is going to start to favor men?And the third master of his family is that magnanimous mistress?

He intended to comfort the third master with a few words, but he couldn't say anything because Mr. Lu was present, so he secretly gave Zuo Shaoqing a look of pity, and then ran out eagerly to find the housekeeper.

After conveying this strange order, Luo Xiaoliu suddenly thought: the request made by the third master just now seems to be in line with him, and he can be regarded as a young, unmarried little steward.

Then should he go?What if the third master chooses himself to be a male pet to Lord Lu?

The eldest lady brought four dowry maids with her when she got married. It is said that Mr. Jiang has already taken two of them. Isn't she also a dowry servant?Could it be... the same fate?

It is said that married girls like to praise the maids around them, and given how well the third master knows him, he must regard himself as the best candidate.

Luo Xiaoliu ran back to the room and dug out several new sets of clothes, and selected a set of blue with dark lines with gestures. After changing, he looked at the front, back, left, and right sides of the mirror, thinking: I am really getting better and better. handsome!

In the past in Zuo Mansion, the servants only had a new set of clothes every season, and they were made of the most common coarse cloth, and they ate simple tea and light food. How could it be like now, eating well and dressing well, and the whole person looked elegant.

When he walked out of the room in good spirits, he found that more than [-] people had gathered in the yard, all young and handsome, discussing what happened together.

Although Luo Xiaoliu hadn't been here for a long time, he knew almost everyone in the Zhen Guogong's mansion except for some secret people. He greeted each of them, and many people pulled him to ask what was going on.

Luo Xiaoliu smiled inscrutablely: "The Buddha said, don't say it, don't say it!"

But it wasn't long before he was proud, when he saw Yin Yi in the crowd, he was in a bad mood, he walked around Yin Yi like a coincidence, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"

Yin Yi sized him up from head to toe, and said calmly: "You don't seem to be wearing this outfit this morning, do you?" Could it be that Luo Xiaoliu is interested in those maids?

This is quite possible, after all, Luo Xiaoliu liked women before, and Hongyuan and the others are rare beauties, and Luo Xiaoliu was often found drooling at these four beauties before.

He squinted his eyes, and secretly twisted his waist, "Who do you want to seduce with a fancy dress?"

Luo Xiaoliu tugged at his clothes uncomfortably, regretting what he did just now, if the third master really chooses him and asks him to serve Master Lu, will he go or not?

It seemed...he didn't really want to go.

"Don't talk nonsense, I just... just thought, it's hard to get together, of course you have to dress up." Luo Xiaoliu rolled his eyes, "It's you, how can you, a little guard, come?"

He remembered that the third master just said that the guards must be of high rank. Could it be... "Are you also an official? What rank?"

"What? Do you know what your husband is capable of?" Yinyi lowered his head and blew in his ear, "I'll tell you when I satisfy my husband tonight."

Luo Xiaoliu touched his ear and moved a step aside, just as Lu Zheng and Zuo Shaoqing came out hand in hand, he had an idea, ran to Zuo Shaoqing's side, and became a competent servant, "Third Master, everyone It's all here."

Zuo Shaoqing also took a look at him, and raised his brows. He didn't know what Luo Xiaoliu was messing with, but seeing him standing peacefully behind her, he thought that maybe he was thinking about it. .

After everyone saluted and greeted each other, Lu Zheng asked Hong Yuan's four maids to stand up and ordered: "You go and pick one, and after you pick one, let the housekeeper arrange a wedding as soon as possible."

"Ah..." Some were happy and some were sad. The four maids looked bitterly, looking at Zuo Shaoqing pitifully, obviously knowing how Master Lu came about.

"Ahem... Master Lu is also concerned about you, and doesn't want to delay your good time." Zuo Shaoqing raised a pure and kind smile, and said gently: "You can choose, if you are not satisfied, I will find you again. "

The benevolence and righteousness of what he said made the four maids find no reason to refuse.

The guards and stewards present all straightened their backs, staring at Hong Yuan and the others with burning eyes.

Before Lord Lu got married, they didn't dare to think about living with four maids, because they knew that the old lady kept them specially for Lord Lu. After sending it over, they thought it was to leave an heir for the Lu family, but slowly, they also realized that no one could get in between Master Lu and the third master.

When they thought that such a beautiful thing might happen to themselves, everyone looked forward to it, wishing to light a fire on their bodies to make themselves brighter.
