minister on skirt

Chapter 89

Huang Huiqi returned to the mansion, pulled out her hairpin in front of the mirror, and was about to take a bath. After thinking for a while, she pulled her hair back up again, and went out the door with a full skirt, and went to the front yard.

The Huang family only has Huang's father, Huang Jiande, her father and daughter, and an aunt Zhou who accompanied Huang Jiande's daily life here.

Huang Jiande was probably having dinner at the moment, and there were voices coming from the room, the young Aunt Zhou's delicate voice came out with a chuckle, and there were also men's teasing laughter.

Huang Huiqi gritted her teeth, turned around and wanted to leave, but stopped on the stone steps, and finally coughed twice, turned around and knocked on the door.

The sound in the room stopped abruptly, and then Huang Jiande said, "Come in."

She stepped in through the door, staring coldly at Aunt Zhou, who was turning sideways and buttoning up her skirt with a flushed face, and said to Huang Jiande with a gloomy expression, "I want to be transferred, and my father will help me talk to the guard. "

At this moment, Huang Jiande couldn't see any wretched expression on his face. He grabbed his chopsticks and said, "What kind of job do you transfer?"

"I want to be transferred to Huo Rong's subordinates as an errand, as long as I can follow him, I can do any job."

"Huo Rong?" Huang Jiande put down his chopsticks, "Do you think your father opened this guard? You can adjust it wherever you want? Huo Rong's rank is higher than your father's. Now you want me to find a guard to arrest you." Under him?
"At the beginning, I told you to follow Xu Lan, but you didn't do it, and said you'd better stay at leisure under Li Can. Now that Huo Rong is in charge of the production, aren't you tired?"

"At this time and at that time, I think differently." When she was dispatched at the beginning, she didn't know that the new general would be such a character, so she naturally picked a leisurely one.

"Father knows that Huo Rong has a higher official position than you, so even if you don't think about me, why don't you think about yourself? If you have a son-in-law like him, wouldn't you be honored?"

Huang Jiande held his breath when he heard the words, and Aunt Zhou who had buttoned up her skirt was also attracted by the topic.

"You fell in love with Huo Rong?" Huang Jiande straightened up, "Didn't I hear that he married a wife? Would you like to be his stepmother?"

Huang Huiqi remained silent.After a few days of deliberation, she no longer minded the status of her step-wife.

Aunt Zhou gave Huang Jiande a nudge: "Then General Huo is very handsome, he looks even more heroic than General Xu, the eldest girl has a unique vision, what's wrong with marrying him as a house-filling wife?"

After speaking, he smiled and said to Huang Huiqi: "Miss, you have to hurry up. I think this General Huo's family is not poor, and he wears all good things. I'm afraid you will enjoy a good life in the future."

A step-wife's name is better than a concubine's. Huang Huiqi became someone to fill in the house, so how can she still look at people in front of them in the future?
Huang Jiande is still hesitating.

Huang Huiqi, who had long been impatient to wait, stood up: "In short, I have already decided, and my father must find a way to transfer me there as soon as possible!"

After she finished speaking, she glared at Aunt Zhou twice, and came out.

When she becomes confident and powerful in the future, this bitch surnamed Zhou will be the first to die!
There were not many people at home, and the Shen family seemed particularly peaceful.

Shaoqing was not at home, and the generals who often came to visit for dinner on weekdays seldom visited the door.

After Changying finished bathing, Madam Wu came in with food and said, "The eldest wife of the Su family next door went to the Xu family during the day today. I saw them in the alley in the afternoon. Madam Xu is a lucky person, with a big smile on her face." Yes, it looks kind.

"The eldest wife of the Su family is much smarter."

Changying looked at the documents while eating, and muttered absently: "The family background is different, and the natural bearing is also different."

"I think the purpose of this Mrs. Su's visit is unusual. I'm afraid it's not all about the second wife of the Su family." Wu Ma said again.

Changying also thinks so.But she doesn't care. "It doesn't matter why she came, as long as it doesn't affect us."

Wu Ma didn't say anything.

Seeing that she was still busy while eating, she walked over and gently pressed the clerk: "This doesn't look like a young lady, if the wife sees—"

She stopped abruptly at this point, swallowed the rest of the sentence, took the paperwork away and put it aside, and then made the soup for her.

The Changying chopsticks also paused, and said, "If my aunt sees it, she will punish me for reciting my homework again."

Wu Ma didn't dare to follow her words, she helped Tang Shengman, so she called Yingbi to make her bed.

Yingbi said, "Girl, General Xu sent a basket of loquats and a box of spices, which Mrs. Xu brought from Jinling."

Wu Ma stood under the threshold and looked over, Changying also paused with frowning eyebrows.

Wu Ma said: "Young lady, as a junior, she never gave Mrs. Xu anything. Why did General Xu send it first? This is against the rules."

Yingbi lifted the basket: "But someone said that Mrs. Xu brought this fruit to General Xu, and the general couldn't finish eating so much, so he shared some."

"Is it just me or both?" Changying asked.

Yingbi shook her head: "The servant did not ask."

Wu Ma reprimanded: "If you don't ask clearly, how can you collect things indiscriminately? This should be put in the past, and it should be evicted!"

Although she has become Changying's cook now, the majesty of the nun next to Miss Shen is still there.

Yingbi's shoulders trembled, and she looked at Changying pitifully.

Changying thought for a while: "Go and find out first."

Yingbi hurried to go.Changying and Wu Ma said: "I'm not mature enough to act. Teach them these principles later on."

After leaving the Ling Mansion, she only had Wu Ma Xiuxiu and Zi Xiang and a few close relatives around her, especially during the journey southward when she was sick, and when she first arrived in Huzhou, the three of them had to depend on each other, if it weren't for Wu Ma and Zi Xiang Desperate to take care of her, she has died many times.

All the way to today, it makes sense for her to regard the two of them as relatives.

Yingbi and the others are still sincere and loyal, even if they don't understand some truths, they can live with their eyes closed. After all, there are not many servants in the whole Nanfeng Lane who can beat them.

But if you don't pay attention to it, it's easy to fall into the pit, just like Xu Lan's basket of loquats and this box of incense...

If she was only given as a gift and accepted so hastily, then even if she would not have any interaction with Mrs. Xu, she would end up being uneducated and gain a bad reputation in front of her elders.

It's not that there is no way to remedy it, but the key is that if she can remedy it, she has to return the gift in person to be reasonable, and this is the last situation she wants to see.

Yingbi returned after a quarter of an hour, and this time it was much clearer: "I also sent Generals Tan and Huo as gifts, and General Li's mansion also delivered. Mrs. Tan returned two cans of pomelo honey made by herself, and the Li family also returned two cans of grapefruit honey." fruit.

"General Huo's place was sent by General Xu himself, so I don't know what to return, but I think it should be similar. But..."

"but what?"

Yingbi grabbed the corner of her clothes and muttered: "General Xu only gave incense to the girl..."
