Twin Brocade

Chapter 23 The Arrogant Doorman

Compared with Fang Fei, the sons of the Si family of the Fang family, although not bad in etiquette, some of them could read and write.But each of them has their own little abacus.

Therefore, in Fang Jinshu's heart, Fang Fei was better than all of them by virtue of this.What's more, in her current situation, the personal servant girl dare not use servants who are familiar with her.

Now she lives alone in a wing room, and the time spent with her parents is not as good as that of her brothers and sisters;

After returning to Fang's house for half a day, she braced herself to deal with it, and her relatives saw her change of temperament and did not suspect her.

On the contrary, Mama Tian was more aware of the clues.This is really because Mama Tian spends far more time with her day and night than her parents, brothers and sisters.

After getting the name, Fang Fei saw Fang Jinshu put down the hairpin on his head, and hesitated to step forward to help.But she had never done such meticulous work before. Looking at the calluses on her hands, she stopped in her tracks.

Fang Jinshu said: "You go down first, and learn the rules from Mama Tian. After a few days, Mama Tian said it's ok, and you can come to my room as an servant."

In addition to having children at home, wealthy families often buy some maidservants in batches to come in as backups.After these little maids enter the mansion, they will first be handed over to the nurse in charge, who will be taught the etiquette rules and how to serve the lady.

It usually takes two or three months before they are divided into different houses, starting with the lowest-level rough envoy maids.

But Fang Fang was brought in directly by Fang Jinshu, which was an exception.I had to let Tian's mother teach her first, as long as she knew some rules.

Anyway, Fang Jinshu is only eight years old now, and has not officially entered the social circle in the capital.No one cares about the personal servant girls around her.

In her previous life, from the first daughter of the Duke's Mansion to the last empress dowager, she has always been well-clothed and well-fed, and there is never a shortage of people around her.But in fact, she is not the delicate and frail eldest lady who can draw a bow and shoot an arrow.

Fang Jinshu didn't want those second-class maids with unclear attitudes to enter the room, so he took off the hairpins by himself, got into the quilt laid by Mama Tian, ​​and closed his eyes to rest.

The brocade was smoked in advance with the fragrance of magnolia flowers, which is refreshing.

She thought it was difficult for her to fall asleep, but she didn't expect that her delicate body was already overwhelmed by the continuous tossing for several days.The moment he touched the pillow, he fell into a sweet dream.

As the masters took their afternoon nap, the entire Fang family gradually quieted down.

The midday sun shines through the shade of the whirling trees in the courtyard.Spots of light dance with the wind, quietly playing games, quiet and peaceful.

……

At this time, the carriage of Mrs. Quan's family stopped at the side entrance of Cheng Enhou's mansion.

Quan Moxian jumped down from the shaft of the car, and said: "Mother, eldest sister, I'm at the place, I'll go ask first."

Mrs. Quan agreed, and said worriedly: "Talk to others carefully."

Although she is a mother, her knowledge is limited, and many things are left to her son.

Homeland is hard to leave.Going to Beijing this time, the Quan family really pushed each other step by step, deceiving people too much.For the sake of her son's future, she took out the jade pendant that her late husband had specially instructed not to use.

The rest of the matter will be decided by Quan Moxian.

In just one month, Quan Moxian sold all the ancestral houses that were only land under his name.After buying the carriage and preparing the luggage for going to Beijing, the rest were exchanged for a few thin bank notes, which the three of them kept close to their bodies.

According to Mrs. Quan's character, such a desperate thing would never be done.

But now that her son had made up his mind, she had no choice but to obey.Obedience to the father at home, obedience to the husband when married, and obedience to the son after the husband dies, these are the teachings of Mrs. Quan's talented father.

Quan Lu is different.Her father died early when she was young, and she was often bullied by her tribe.She was not willing to admit defeat, and when she was bullied, she simply rolled up her sleeves and fought a few times.

In order to help her mother support the family and provide for her younger brother to study, she has done a lot of farm work since she was a child, and her strength is no worse than those boys.When she puts on a face, no matter whether she can win or not, she cannot let the opponent take advantage of her.

Over time, no one dared to bully their family at will, and Quan Lu gained a reputation of being aggressive.

Seeing his younger brother leaving, Quan Lu said: "Mother, you said that the Fang family wanted us to stay, why did my younger brother refuse to agree? The Fang family is the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and they happen to be in charge of Chunwei."

In Quan Lu's view, they saved the granddaughter of the Fang family.With such kindness, Fang's family sincerely persuaded him to stay, which was much better than Cheng Enhou who had never dealt with him before.

Aunt Quan shook her head and said, "Hei Lang has had his own ideas since he was a child, and I don't know what his plans are."

Aunt Quan looked at a small box in the carriage. Inside was when they were leaving, Si Lansheng ordered someone to load the carriage for them, saying it was a thank you gift for saving their daughter.

She opened it just now, and there were several bright and luxurious materials inside, and 100 taels of snowflake silver pressed at the bottom of the box, which was heavy.

The Fang family sincerely thanked them. Although she had never met any high-ranking officials, she felt that the Fang family was a better choice.Especially Mrs. Fang who was talking to her, she was such a noble person, she talked to herself in such a pleasant manner.

However, since Quan Moxian has already made up his mind, he must have his reasons.If you don't understand things, it's better to listen to Juren's son.

……

The gatekeeper of Cheng Enhou's mansion let out a big yawn in boredom, and glanced up and down at the young man in front of him.Wearing such shabby clothes, I don't know where the dilapidated relatives came from. Knowing that the Xiao family is prosperous, they came to the door to fight the autumn wind!

"Please inform me, Tangzhou Luqiu, an old friend is here to visit."

Quan Moxian has a reputation for raising people, so he didn't salute this sect, but just handed him the jade pendant in his hand, and said: "This is a token left by Lord Hou, he will know it when he sees it."

Menzi glanced at him suspiciously, took the jade pendant and looked it over carefully for a while, then laughed and said, "Are you kidding me! How can such inferior jade be owned by our Marquis?"

"Young man, I see that you are also a student, so I won't hold you accountable for your crimes! Go, go!" Menzi raised his chin arrogantly, and rushed people impatiently.

This jade pendant is indeed not a precious material.In terms of texture, it belongs to emerald jade, but it is not green all over, and there are some black spots in the middle.

This kind of jade is only worn by the steward in the Hou's mansion.How could such a noble person as Hou Ye use such inferior jade!

At this moment, Menzi already regarded Quan Moxian as a liar in his heart.Pushing the jade pendant back into his hand, he waved his hand like chasing flies, telling him to leave quickly.

Quan Moxian withdrew the jade expressionlessly, the corners of his mouth were tense, he turned and left.If Mrs. Quan sees him, knowing that he is actually in her heart, she will be extremely annoyed.

When he arrived at the carriage, his expression had already relaxed, and he said, "It doesn't matter if you encounter a small problem."
