In the absence of adults in the mansion, it is hard to guarantee that such things as cooks stealing rice will never happen again.
Gu Wenqing simply asked Qi Zhou to sieve all the servants in the mansion, so that the servants who were transferred later, like cooks, would be sent out if they were unsafe, so as to save trouble.
When he was about to go out on weekdays, he would let them go back to Yufu if they had something to do, and she would handle all the affairs in the house.
It has to be said that the "future sister-in-law" is much more talented than him in being the director of the family.
"Miss, the post was just delivered to the mansion today. The Fourth Young Master is too busy, so let the slaves send it to you."
Qi Zhou waved his hand with a smile, and the servant behind him was holding a stack of greeting cards and carefully placed them on the table.
Yu Fu glanced at him, feeling that the people in the house were treating her strangely recently.
After disposing of the two cooks, everyone looked at her with more respect and less amusement.
"So many posts?"
She retracted her gaze and looked through them casually. Most of them were juniors of court ministers and ministers. She probably wanted to build a good relationship with them juniors while the adults in the house were away.
No, who knows what camp these parents are in the court, is it the first prince's party or the second prince's party
Even if it was a party loyal to Emperor Ning, she didn't want to receive it. The fourth brother was already busy enough, how could he have time to deal with these people.
You can't let Gu Xiang and Gu Yi treat guests, can you
She pulled the greeting cards aside and picked out a few familiar names, "Like the wife of General Jin, the wife of General Yan, their husbands and sons went to war with the general. They themselves There must be a lot of inconvenience in the capital, but you should send a safe person to their house to ask about it. If they don't have to come to the house to ask the younger generation for help, how can you save face?"
Qi Zhou was taken aback, "How does Miss know that they have come to the house for help in trouble?"
Yu Fu put the two greeting cards aside, "According to Dongling's custom, wives have their own social circles, and the people they meet must be wives of other officials. But there are no wives in our house, these two wives Except for birthday banquets and other big days, I won't come to Guhou's mansion at all. Now that Hulaba is here, it can't be that he came to chat with me, right?"
Qi Zhou suddenly realized, "So that's the case. No wonder I don't see these two greeting cards. I always feel strange, but I can't figure out what is so strange. Then I will send someone to the two prefectures to ask!"
"Hey, wait a minute."
Yu Fu suddenly saw a unique pattern in the greeting card, picked it up and saw Kun Yuyang was written on it.
She chuckled.
The dignified princess wrote her boudoir name on the greeting card. Yufu had been in Dongling for a long time, but when she saw the bold and unrestrained style of the Xikun woman, she found it fresh.
"Princess Xikun is a female guest. I'm here to see you. These are regular guests of Guhou's mansion. It's hard to refuse. Let the fourth brother see you by himself. Let the rest be rejected. Just say that the adults in the mansion are not in a mess. , it’s inconvenient to meet guests.”
very messy
Qi Zhou looked around in a daze. Under the leadership of Gu Wenqing and Yu Fu, the mansion is as orderly as before. What's wrong
Yu Fu smiled and looked at him, winking.
The latter understood instantly and asked the boy to leave with the post in his arms.
That's right, it's better that this mansion is a mess, at least to let outsiders feel that this mansion is indeed a mess.
…
"Gu Hou Mansion is so magnificent!"
Kun Yuyang entered the mansion, without hesitation in praise, his eyes lingered on the pavilions and pavilions in the mansion.
Yu Fu invited her to the main hall, and ordered someone to invite Gu Xiang and Gu Yi to accompany the guests, and they talked over tea.
"I heard that you have rejected many visitors. I thought my greeting card would be sent back, but I didn't expect you to meet me. It's a great honor!"
When Kun Yuyang was excited, he stood up and held up the hem of his skirt, performing a Xikun etiquette.
Yu Fu touched the green feather hairpin on his head, "Cannibalism has a soft mouth but short hands. I took your favor and promised to take care of you. There is nothing to take care of you. I can always see you. By the way, you are in the post Is the hotel okay?"
"Fortunately, I heard that the courtyard of the post house was used by Brother Seventh Emperor. It is very exquisite. Although it is not as grand as the Marquis Gu's mansion, it is already very good for me, a low-born princess of the enemy country."
When Kun Yuyang mentioned Kun Wu's injury, Yu Fu's face changed, as if he didn't like the name very much.
If other people saw this expression, they would definitely never mention this name again, but Kun Yuyang was an outlier, "Yu Fu, you don't like my Seventh Brother? Isn't he your junior brother?"
"He didn't do good things in Dongling before, and used me to do something that made me very uncomfortable."
Yu Fu briefly walked over and saw Kun Yuyang's face darkened, afraid that she would misunderstand, "But don't worry, he is him and you are you. I like your character, and I won't take my anger out on you just because you are siblings."
Kun Yuyang raised his head and smiled and said, "Of course I know. Seventh brother, he has done some things too much, but he is very kind to me. My father has too many children, and he may not even remember himself. Maybe because we are all from humble backgrounds, Brother Seven took extra care of me. When he left Xikun for Immortal Valley, I cried for a long time."
It turned out that there was still this relationship between the two of them.
Yu Fu said: "But I heard that he won the real power in Xikun because of the credit of overthrowing Prime Minister Dongling. Since he is close to you, why didn't he prevent Emperor Kun from sending you to marry?"
The frontier Xikun resorted to force, and now everyone knew that Kun Yuyang was the victim of Emperor Kun.
She smiled secretly, "I came here voluntarily, Brother Seven can't stop it. Rather than being bullied in Xikun for the rest of my life, it's better to come to Dongling to fight for a future. Thank God, I won the bet. Your Majesty is really a lenient person."
