The housekeeper looked into his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's face: "is the little lady worried that I lied to you? My master's house is Liu in the county. You can ask a passer-by to know that my surname is Liu. You can call me housekeeper Liu. If you don't worry, you can go to the Yamen to register first. If you go to our house and have any mistakes, we will be responsible to the end."
Ye Xiaoxian was a little sorry and said, "I can't trust you. I'm worried... What if your young lady doesn't like my food?"
"How do you know if you don't try? Even if she doesn't eat what you make in the end, our master will have hard money and a silver or two."
One or two silver is equal to one thousand Wen. You have to sell 500 bowls of jelly to earn it back. For the sake of money, ye Xiaoxian immediately agreed to housekeeper Liu.
……
Ye Xiaoxian didn't go to the Yamen to do any notarization. Intuitively, she thought the housekeeper surnamed Liu wouldn't cheat her.
He followed housekeeper Liu across a few streets and soon came to a big house built of green bricks and black tiles, with two small stone lions in front of the door.
In this era, "non members" are landlords and gentry. They are not official positions, but they have more money than the county magistrate of the county yamen. They have land and land. They can also participate in major discussions in the county and have a high status in the local area.
Therefore, Liu Yuanwai can afford the reward of one or two silver coins.
Into the big house, and then through a yard, a corridor, and then to a small yard.
The small courtyard is quiet and elegant. There are many precious flowers and plants in it. Now it's summer. All the rooms in the courtyard are open, and there are three or four servant girls busy.
When ye Xiaoxian looked at the simple and elegant courtyard, an idea suddenly came into her mind: if she could have such a courtyard, she would talk to Xiao Baoshan again
Bah, bah, what do you think? It won't happen.
However, this yard can be regarded as her goal in this era. The house is the heart of the people in any dynasty.
"Madam Xiao, my lady lives in the middle room. Please come this way and I'll let mother Wang lead you in." Housekeeper Liu led Ye Xiaoxian.
In ancient times, there were differences between men and women. Housekeeper Liu could not enter a young lady's boudoir. Only an aunt of about 40 was responsible for leading Ye Xiaoxian into the house.
This is an antique room. The room is spacious with mahogany furniture. In the room, a girl is half lying in bed reading.
"Miss, housekeeper Liu brought the cook who made jelly to me." Mother Wang stood in front of the bed respectfully.
Miss Liu put down her book lazily, then turned around weakly and looked at Ye Xiaoxian, and then said, "it's a little lady?"
"Yes, she made the pancakes you ate at noon." Mother Wang said.
This Miss Liu looks fifteen or sixteen years old. She looks yellow and skinny. At a height of about one meter six, she is at most 70 kilograms. The green tendons on her hands are exposed. It looks terrible.
"You made jelly and baking powder?" Miss Liu asked Ye Xiaoxian feebly. Because she was born with a golden key, she looked quite proud.
"I did it." Ye Xiaoxian replied, "I don't know what kind of food Miss likes to eat. I can make it for miss."
Ye Xiaoxian learns from the people in ancient costume TV dramas.
Miss Liu glanced at Ye Xiaoxian: "don't ask me. If I know what I want to eat, I don't have to ask you cooks to come over. You can do it yourself and bring it when you're ready."
Xu has been hungry for too long. Miss Liu has a bad temper and is grumpy.
Seeing this, mother Wang quickly let Miss Liu rest and led Ye Xiaoxian out.
After leaving Miss Liu's house, ye Xiaoxian returned to housekeeper Liu.
Ye Xiaoxian stopped housekeeper Liu and asked suspiciously, "housekeeper Liu, your young lady is really thin. Don't you find a doctor to see why she is so thin? If there is a physical problem, it should be cured?"
