Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 34 Check in
When Mrs. Wei Guo was in the garden with a few children, Nan Surou had already followed Sister Fen towards Jianqiu Courtyard.

Wei Guogong's mansion is divided into two parts, the inner courtyard and the large courtyard. The outer courtyard is the handyman's room. Nan Surou first went to the servants' collective house with Mother Fen to pick out a few dexterous girls, and then went to Jianqiu courtyard.

The inner courtyard is where the master lives, and there is also the yard prepared by Mrs. Wei Guo for the so-called distant relatives. These courtyards prepared for guests are connected with the inner courtyard. This is the standard residence of the master, separated from the servant's room built a big wall.

Nan Surou is very familiar with the inside and outside of this place. The front yard of the inner courtyard, the inner house, the study room, the back garden, Nan Surou is familiar with the way. Compared with the previous life, these scenes have house divisions, nothing at all Big difference.

"Ciao girl, this is Jianqiu Courtyard." Standing in front of a half-moon arch, Nurse Fen respectfully made a "please" gesture to Nan Surou.

This is Jianqiuyuan...

Standing in front of the half-moon-shaped arch, Nan Surou couldn't help but think in her heart that in her previous life, she was assigned to the relatively dilapidated Xiyiyuan, and then slowly climbed to Jianqiuyuan. It seems that Mrs. Wei treats her differently in this life.

Nan Surou looked at Nanny Fen with a smile, and said, "It's really hard for you today, Sister Fen."

Nurse Fen smiled lightly: "This is a maidservant's job. Miss Biao entered the yard first, and after tidying up, she has to go to pay her respects to Madam."

Nan Surou nodded, and followed Sister Fen into the Jianqiu Courtyard.

This is a square and large courtyard. Once you enter the half-moon arch, there are elegant corridors in the shape of a zigzag on both sides. There are green bricks on the ground. There are rockery in the middle of the corridor, green trees, bushes, and a small artificial pool. It is complete, with four wing rooms in the east and west, neat, quiet and elegant.

Sister Fen took the newly selected servants to tidy up the room, make the bed, and clean, while Nan Surou kept watching.

Although the place is large, it doesn't take three quarters of an hour to take care of all the matters. In the end, Nan Surou asked Yun Rong to give rewards to several slaves and maidservants respectively, and sealed a big red envelope to Nanny Fen.

Sister Fen can be regarded as an old fritter, she collected the money calmly, looked at the sky, and said: "Cousin girl, Mrs. Wei Guo has ordered you to come to Kangcheng Garden for dinner."

Nan Surou knew in her heart that Mrs. Wei Guo was sometimes very busy on weekdays, so she would assess the children boarding at the Duke's Mansion during meal time.

When eating, clothing, decorations, words and deeds will be included in the assessment scope of Mrs. Wei Guo. Those who are stupid will not think that when they entered Wei Guogong's mansion for the first time, the trial of a lifetime of relationship has already begun.

The accumulated assessments over time will allow Mrs. Wei Guo to evaluate them secretly, which will affect all aspects of the future.

Knowing the reason, Nan Surou combed her hair again, asked Yunrong to comb her hair, divided the hair into two strands, and tied them symmetrically into two big vertebrae, which were placed on both sides of the top of the head and drawn out in the bun. A small lock of hair is allowed to hang down naturally, and a pair of gold-encrusted jewelry butterfly hairpins are placed on the head, which looks refreshing and lovely.

Nan Surou picked out another set of pleated skirts scattered with water mist and green grass. It is best for children not to choose those colors that are too dark or too plain. A little brighter colors will make them look more lively.

Mrs. Wei Guo does not have very high-end aesthetics. What she likes most is that the children wear neat and lively clothes that look clean and tidy. If she insists on dressing up in accordance with the current trend, she may not be appreciated by Mrs. Wei Guo.

Nan Surou can be regarded as doing what she wants, after all, although she doesn't intend to be used, she still doesn't want Mrs. Wei to have a bad impression of her. No matter what Mrs. Wei says, she is a rare tree .

After tidying up, Nan Surou, led by Nanny Fen, went back to Kangcheng Garden, the main house of the Duke of Wei's mansion, bypassing the strict yards. The steps were still full of maids as when she came, and there were many people in the yard. , unlike when Nan Surou first entered the mansion, there were people whispering, this group of slaves now have serious faces and are unusually quiet.

The little girl drew up the curtain, Nan Surou kept her eyes fixed, and followed Nanny Fen into the main room, while Yun Rong waited outside this time.

Nanny Fen led Nan Surou into the Baoxia hall on the side. The left and right seats were already full of people. Except for Nan Xiyuan and Nan Qiansong, the rest of the children were from the side branch. They gathered around the oval dining table, Sit properly.

Going further inside, in front of the marble screen inlaid with agarwood wood, sitting on the carved arhat bed is Mrs. Wei Guo, who is still dressed as before. She is looking at the children below with a loving face and a smile.

"Greetings to Mrs. Wei Guo." Nan Surou followed Nurse Fen to salute.

Mrs. Wei Guo raised her eyes to Nan Surou's side, and said with a smile: "I've said it all, don't be so unreasonable, just call your cousin, ouch, it was dusty just now, and now it looks very good after cleaning it up." Yeah, come here and let me see."

Mrs. Wei Guo was very enthusiastic, took Nan Surou's hand, and looked at it carefully, causing the children below to look at each other inexplicably.

Nan Surou always had a cute smile on her face, but she scolded Mrs. Wei Guo a hundred and eighty times in her heart. Mrs. Wei Guo was trying to create hatred for her. In her previous life, she behaved badly at the beginning, so Wei Guo Madam didn't pay much attention to it, and she wouldn't treat her so conspicuously. Madam Wei Guo did this now because she wanted her to be the target of public criticism, and then further tested her ability.

In front of a group of children, Mrs. Wei praised Nan Surou in a nonchalant manner, and asked briefly about the situation at home. After hearing Nan Surou's words, she smiled falsely: " You are tired all the way here, you must be hungry, everyone is here, let's have dinner." Then, she raised her head to Sister Fen, and ordered: "Ah Fen, let them serve the food. "

Because it was a family banquet, all the tables were full of children, so they sat a little casually.

Mrs. Wei Guo arranged Nan Surou's position at the lower right of the main seat. This is already a very important move. The rest of the children may not see the problem, but the older children are very clear. Wei Zun, especially Nan Surou's current position, next is Nan Qiansong, and then Nan Xiyuan, this kind of treatment is something that other children have never had, and those who understand the mystery are all right Nan Surou cast complicated gazes, some with envy and some with hatred.

Nan Surou calmly faced countless fiery gazes, as if she didn't see them at all.

A group of maids came in with hot dishes, Mrs. Wei Guo smiled and said to Nan Suju: "Come on, let me introduce you, these are my son and daughter, Qian Song and Xi Yuan, Xi Yuan is a Fat girl."

Nan Qiansong and Nan Xiyuan stood up to salute, and Nan Surou returned the salute one by one.

Mrs. Wei Guo pointed to the children next to her again: "A few people here, these are the children of your brother-in-law and younger brother, and the children of your brother-in-law and sister. The children of your cousins ​​are all old and are not here. Come eat with us here."

Those children respected Nan Qiansong, and when they saw Nan Qiansong, they saluted Nan Surou, and now they also stood up and saluted very actively, even Nan Peiyan, who was arrogant and domineering at first, put on a show.

It's just that the disapproval in the eyes of this group of respectful saluting people is too obvious.

Nan Surou tried to suppress a smile, and returned the gift without changing her face. She never thought that meeting this group of people again would be like this.

It was also because Nan Surou in her previous life was too reserved and nervous when she ate at Duke Wei's mansion on the first day, Mrs. Wei Guo didn't introduce her as warmly as she is now, and the children didn't even salute Nan Surou. She didn't pay attention to her surroundings at all. I never thought of the funny costumes and funny expressions of these children.

Mrs. Wei Guo doesn't know how to take care of herself. She wears decent clothes made of high-quality materials, and the jewelry on her head is the same. Naturally, Nan Qiansong and Nan Xiyuan are also affected by her aesthetics, and they look rich Forceful, but without extravagance, Nan Qiansong is better, occasionally rebellious, and finds some styles that suit him on his own.

Since the rest of the group of children came from poor relatives, they had no experience and no good family background, so they naturally learned from Nan Qiansong and Nan Xiyuan, but they never imitated. Naturally, the righteous master is already a setback, and they can only be more frustrated.

Just looking at the way this group of children are dressed, those who don't know think they are poor children who have been found to act. Dressing in brocade clothes can't hide the small family temperament, so Nan Peiyan looks decent.

Standing here, compared with them, Nan Surou's temperament can surpass them. Moreover, she has no intention of being flattered or humiliated, and Mrs. Wei Guo will definitely look at her differently.

Just as Nan Surou's thoughts were going back and forth, the maids finished serving the last dish. Nan Surou calmed down, looked up at the dishes on the table, and her lips curled into a slight arc—it started so soon put her to the test...
