When Hou Ye saw Jiayin coming in, he stared at a jade ornament on the Bogu shelf, so he hugged her and took it down, and finally waved his hand at the butler casually, "Tell the kitchen to come to the table and add some minced meat egg custard , put less salt."

The butler hurried down, and when he went out, he saw the girl in pink clothes standing outside the door, so he couldn't help pulling her aside and scolding: "Miss Yuxue, you are usually smart, what's wrong today? The old lady of the Li family Miss He is the savior of Master Hou, and even now he is taking care of Master Hou to recuperate from his injuries. No matter how displeased you are, you should bear it, it was just too rude."

Yuxue seemed aggrieved, and said with tears in her eyes: "Housekeeper, I didn't do it on purpose, it was too stinky and I couldn't hold it back for a while. Besides, I am serving in the Hou Ye's room, so let me serve outsiders now Take a bath, I..."

The butler's face darkened, and his tone became cold, "Don't care where you are, you are the servant of the Marquis, and you will do whatever the Marquis tells you!"

Yuxue bit her lip and went down.

In the side room of the main courtyard, a jade pool was built for the master to take a bath on weekdays.

At this moment, the servant girls are busy boiling water, filling the jade pool half full, and preparing things for washing, so they never touch the ground.

Yuxue stood aside, her face so ugly that the maids didn't dare to say anything.

Soon, when everything was ready, Yuxue straightened her face and entered the main room with a smile, "Master Hou, the bath is ready, please take a bath, Mrs. Madam and Miss."

Lord Hou nodded, patted Jiayin on the back, and said to the old lady: "Auntie, I have been bathing in the running water hot spring in the village on weekdays. Today I will wrong you to use the bath."

"Family, what nonsense are you talking about? You can't take a bath with any water. Besides, my body stinks to death. Washing it off is better than anything else... If I knew it would hurt myself, I would replace the rotten eggs with dirt! "

While talking, she took Jiayin and followed Yuxue out.

Hou Ye turned around and entered the study, and began to deal with some small matters that had been backlogged for a long time.

The old lady and Jiayin walked into the bathroom all the way, and before they could take off their clothes, Yuxue asked casually as if gossiping: "The old lady has never seen such a big jade pond, right? used it."

The old lady didn't speak, but Jiayin stared wide-eyed and asked, "Big sister, what is an outsider?"

Yuxue didn't think that a child had any bad intentions, and at the same time, she really didn't pay attention to Mrs. Li and Li Jiayin. She smiled and said, "This? For example, you are outsiders."

"What about you, are you a wife, Master Hou's wife?" Jiayin asked innocently.

Yuxue blushed at Jiayin's question, but she still raised her head and puffed her chest out and replied, "Yes, I am the wife of Lord Hou, and I will serve you in Lord Hou's bedroom."

The old lady frowned, and didn't like Yuxue talking about the bedroom, so she said coldly, "Young lady, what kind of insider and outsider, it's not good to tell the child about serving in the bedroom, you go out, we will do it ourselves." washed."

Yuxue didn't expect Mrs. Li to lose her temper, and she was unhappy, so she turned around and left.

There were two maids guarding the door, but when they saw her rushing out angrily and looked at each other, they pulled her to the window, one of them couldn't hold back, and asked, "Sister Yuxue, what's wrong with you? Why don't you serve the distinguished guests inside? Will you offend someone if you come out like this?"

Yuxue was holding her breath, so she forgot her scruples, and said angrily: "When I was serving Lord Hou on weekdays, Lord Hou didn't make things difficult for me, but the two bumpkins actually put on airs and said I was talking No, it scared her child!"

Another servant girl persuaded with a smile: "Sister Yuxue, don't be angry, Lord Hou ordered you to come down, we will take good care of you. I heard that Lord Hou values ​​this family very much. They also came here last time, but you didn't see them when you were sick and recuperating." , you don't know, butler is very respectful to Mrs. Li and Miss."

Yuxue gritted her teeth, "Miss bullshit, don't think I don't know, but I'm just a bumpkin guarding the Zhuangzi for Lord Hou. Lord Hou is kind, and respecting them a little, they really regard themselves as masters? Last time I'm sick, otherwise I'll be the first to kick them out, shameless!"

"That's right," the two maids quickly boasted, "We are just slaves, we can't say anything even if we don't like it, but Sister Yuxue is different. Sister Yuxue is serving the pillow mat for Lord Hou, and she will definitely lift up my aunt in the future. The Hou Mansion wants sister Yuxue to be half of the family, and we all count on her to take care of her."

Yuxue felt comfortable being flattered, and became more and more happy. After thinking about it, she was unwilling to waste the opportunity, and she always wanted to go and get close to Master Hou when he finally came back.

If Master Hou is coaxed to soften his heart and take her to the Zhuangzi to serve her, she will get the moon first if she is close to the water.

If she could become pregnant with Lord Hou's blood, she would not be afraid even if his wife came in in the future. At that time, she would definitely have a place in the Hou's mansion!

"You stay here and I will serve tea to Lord Hou."

"Hey, sister Yuxue, the nobleman inside hasn't cleaned his clothes yet?" A maid stopped Yuxue and asked, "Should I go outside the house to buy two new sets?"

Sure enough, Yuxue couldn't listen to the words of nobleman, and directly replied: "It's so troublesome, just find two sets of clothes for the old woman and the little maid, and just change them for them."

After finishing speaking, she left, leaving the two servant girls to wink at each other and smile maliciously.

This Yuxue usually served in the master's bedroom, and her father was a veteran who died in battle. If she felt that she would be the master of the Hou's mansion in the future, she would call and order them casually, and they were already dissatisfied.

With such a good opportunity today, if Lord Hou got angry and got rid of Yuxue, wouldn't they have a chance to be promoted? !

Hou Ye had been busy for a while, and was feeling a little thirsty. Suddenly there was an extra cup of tea in his hand, and he picked it up and took a sip.

When he looked up again and saw that it was Yuxue, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why are you here, who is waiting in the bathroom?"

"Back to Lord Hou, it's Yuxia and Yumei who are serving. I'm worried that the little maids don't know what Lord Hou likes, so I quickly made a pot of tea and brought it here." Yuxue responded softly.

She rolled up her sleeves, showing her snow-white wrists, and wanted to refill her tea, when the butler reported outside the door, "Master Hou, the food is ready."

Hou Ye put down the pen and paper, got up and walked out, Yuxue was very angry, but still followed behind with a low eyebrow.

The butler smiled and pointed to the custard on the table, and said to Master Hou, "Master Hou, there are fresh river prawns that arrived in the kitchen today. They are very fresh. The servant peeled off half a bowl and steamed a custard with shrimps. Look at it." Miss, do you like to eat it?"

Lord Hou nodded. Just as he was about to speak, the old lady led Jiayin in from the outside, and he turned cold.

The butler was surprised. Looking back, he was so frightened that he almost dropped the bowl in his hand.

The old lady was dressed in dark gray, and Jiayin was dressed in khaki. Although the two sets of clothes were suitable in size and considered clean, they were the dresses worn by the lowest servants in the mansion.

Just now, Lord Hou had clearly ordered to have clean new clothes!

After the Li family came last time, he specifically ordered the sewing room to prepare a few more sets of clothes for men, women and children, just in case the Li family came over and needed to be replaced.

But why did the old lady and young lady dress like this? What went wrong, or did someone deliberately embarrass the Li family? !
