"Keep your eyes open to see clearly. The ones in front of you are all the masters of the Li family. This one is the son of Chang'an County personally appointed by His Majesty. This is the concubine's wife, and this is the second lady..." Uncle Li stood In front of all the servants, he said loudly.
The current Viscount's Mansion has dozens of people up and down. Naturally, it is different from before. All kinds of affairs on weekdays must be taken care of. Of course, it is impossible to leave all these things to Li Yi himself or Ruyi, a housekeeper. It is indispensable.
The old lady specially asked Uncle Li to come over to help him manage these affairs, that is to say, from now on, Uncle Li is the housekeeper of the Viscount's Mansion.
"There are only a few masters in the house. You have to be respectful and respectful on weekdays. You must not show any disrespect. Except for the maids, no one is allowed to enter the inner house..." The servants of the Li family met the master for the first time, and it was also the first time. The first time I listened to the butler's lecture, I stood respectfully at the same spot, secretly remembering everyone's faces in my heart, but my heart was disturbed, I don't know what kind of temper this lord is like, whether he is easy to get along with, what kind of temperament is his wife, These days may be carefully served.
They were all enslaved and belonged to the property of the Viscount's Mansion. If they accidentally violated the master's taboo, no one would reason for them if they were filled with sinking ponds.
"Okay, okay, you all go to your own affairs, there are not many people at home, just do what you should do well on weekdays." Li Yi waved to the servants and said: "Old lady My eyesight is bad, so pick two smart girls to serve the old lady, and let them do their own thing for the rest. In addition, when we meet for the first time, all servants will be rewarded with a consistent amount of money, which will be withdrawn from the cashier."
There was not enough manpower, so Uncle Li was both the housekeeper and the accountant.
Many servants were slightly happy when they heard the words. The usual money was already their monthly wages in the Viscount's Mansion. What's more, the Sir was generous and he looked pleasant, so it shouldn't be difficult to get along with. In the days to come I'm afraid it will be much better.
Even some pretty maids began to come alive in their hearts.
If my appearance can catch the eyes of the lord, then I will really fly up to the branch and become a phoenix. Even if I can't become a concubine, my status will be great——
However, when they saw the concubine, the second lady, and even the maid next to them, they couldn't help feeling a little discouraged in their hearts.
In terms of their looks, they are really incomparable. Moreover, the second young lady actually carries a sword with her. If the consequences are too serious, all the maids gave up this unrealistic idea.

…
When they came from Qing'an Mansion, they traveled lightly and had almost no luggage, but the Viscount's Mansion had all the furniture and other things. If there was anything missing, just go out and buy it.
The Viscount's Mansion is very large, and at least dozens of people are not satisfied living far away. A bachelor Viscount like Li Yi is rare. Counting grandma's family, there are only eight people.
Li Yi and Ruyi naturally wanted to choose a courtyard in the inner house, Dragon Boat Festival and Auntie, Grandma, Miss Liu Er chose a yard, Xiaohuan did not dare to live alone, and with her, Lao Fang and uncle lived in the outer house .
As the mistress, Ruyi was brought by two maids to get familiar with the Viscount's mansion, Xiaohuan also followed, Second Miss Liu was tidying up her room, Li Yi sat on the stone bench in the yard, and all the maids and servants who passed by should be respectful All the salutations prove that this place will belong to him from now on.
Imagine, the sun is slightly drunk, the wind is beautiful, lying leisurely in the yard to bask in the sun, the two pretty maids on the left and right have pinched their arms and legs, and then there are versatile maids singing a song and dancing, tired of watching Let Miss Liu Er perform a sword dance in a popular dance—so far in life, what more can I ask for.
Life seems to be getting better all the time. Half a year ago, I was hiding in the mountains, drinking porridge and stealing chicken. Now I have crossed the threshold of prosperity, living in the most prosperous city, and my family is full of maids and servants. I have officially lived a feudal life. The luxurious life of the socialist aristocrats.
"Uncle, will you not go back to Qing'an Mansion after this?" Lao Fang asked with a tangled expression on his face.
Li Yi felt that he had fallen, and he wondered if there was a big mansion for maids and servants in Qing'an Mansion. It seems that it is really easy to go from thrift to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Before you start enjoying it, forget the previous "hardship" live.
"Anyway, it's not too far away. If your mother-in-law agrees, you can come to the capital with her. If Lao Xu and the others are willing to come, you can come together. There will always be a place for you here." From the most difficult days together The group of people who came here and experienced life and death together in Qing'an Mansion are actually the most trustworthy people.
"Okay, I'll go back tomorrow!" Lao Fang was obviously waiting for Li Yi's words, and said with a slap on his thigh.
After going through so many things, I habitually regard Li Yi as the backbone. The uncle and the lady are both in the capital, so it doesn’t make sense for them to stay in Qing’an Mansion. Those guys are not safe in their bones. Following the uncle is exciting things to do...
…
…
After only half a day, all the servants of Li's mansion had a clear understanding of the situation in the mansion, and at the same time breathed a long sigh of relief.
Both the lord and the lady have good tempers, and they didn't say a single harsh word to them. The second lady was cold and seemed difficult to get along with, but a maid accidentally tipped over the basin and wet her The second lady didn't say a word of punishment.
In addition, the wife's personal servant girl is very favored, as if she is another master of the family, but she must not be regarded as a real person.
Everyone rejoiced in their hearts about their luck, and there was no need to worry about the filling of the pond in the future.
Miss Liu Er went back to her room with an angry face, because Li Yi drove her out of the yard in the name of going to bed earlier.
"It's just half a month since we saw each other. What's there to talk about?" Li Yi curled his lips, closed the courtyard door, and walked into the room.
Ruyi stood by the bed, tidying the bedding, looked back, then turned back quickly, and a soft voice came: "When I came to the capital, I thought I would go back soon, so I didn't bring anything. If we If you want to live in the capital, I'm afraid you have to go back as soon as possible to bring all the important things, at least the money at home."
Li Yi walked over slowly and hugged her from behind. Ruyi's hands paused, and a red cloud immediately rose on her pretty face.
"Mister, Mr. Xiang..." Her breathing was a little short, and her voice was inaudible.
"What the lady said before, it still counts..." Li Yi whispered in her ear.
Of course she knew what Li Yi was referring to, she turned around slowly, half a head lower than Li Yi, her face was even more flushed, she looked up into his eyes, and nodded slightly.
Li Yi looked down at this face that couldn't pick out any flaws. This was his wife, the person he was destined to spend the rest of his life with. He took a deep breath, and with a little force, he hugged her tightly, and pressed his lips against her as clean as a On Yu's forehead.
Then the eyes, the nose, the lips...
In the room, the candlelight was flickering, facing a wind blowing from nowhere, the flame flickered a few times, and then quietly extinguished.
The beautiful woman bowed her head and was shy, the talented man raised her eyebrows and smiled, and the love in the room is not enough to describe.
