In the room, Gu Huaijiang sat in the living room and read several bills, nodding repeatedly.
"Jiuge is getting better now, without Shubai, he manages the mansion in an orderly manner by himself, and can take good care of the younger brothers."
Qi An stood by the door, listening to his words, couldn't help but smile.
"The second son is already nineteen years old, and he will reach the crown next year. Naturally, there will be benefits. Even the third and fourth sons are not children anymore, so they can take care of themselves. Don't worry, Lord Hou!"
Gu Huaijiang looked up at him, saw him standing bowed by the door, and beckoned him to sit down.
"Steward Qi, sit down and talk. You have served in this mansion for decades, and you are more respectable than the young masters. You don't have to be so formal."
Qi An was not too humble, and sat half of his buttocks on the armchair at the lower end with a smile.
"By the way, Lord Hou, I wonder what kind of dishes Miss Yufu likes to eat? The old slave has already ordered the kitchen to prepare more dishes, but I don't know if they suit Miss Yufu's taste."
Mentioning Yufu, Gu Huaijiang smiled lovingly.
"It's okay, she is not very familiar with the food in our Dongling Kingdom, let her try more dishes from the imperial capital, so that she will know what she likes to eat and what she doesn't like to eat in the future."
Qi An couldn't help being surprised.
"Could it be that Miss Yufu wasn't in Dongling Kingdom before?"
"She had been living in Immortal Valley before, which is a place where the Three Kingdoms meet. The customs, etiquette, food, etc. of the three countries are all mixed together. So she is still a little different from our lady from Dongling Kingdom."
Only then will Qi An agree.
"No wonder this old slave thinks that Miss Yufu is very lively and lovely. Unlike other ladies of high families and noble families, they have been restrained and quiet since childhood."
If you want him to say whether it is better to be quiet or lively, he can't say for a while.
But looking at Gu Huaijiang's face, he obviously thinks it's good to be lively.
No, maybe as long as it is displayed on Yufu, whether it is quiet or lively, he likes it, right
Qi An glanced outside the door, the sky was getting late, and the shadow of the sun was slanting to the west.
"It's about time, this old slave will order someone to invite Miss Yufu and the young masters to have a meal."
…
Qi Ting led Yu Fu out of the west chamber, on the same way as when she came, through a cobblestone path, and arrived at the upper room.
Gu Huaijiang has a broad-minded heart and has his own style under the forest. His residence is full of green bamboos, slender and dense.
Yu Fu looked at it, but kept nodding his head.
This is not far from Gu Huaijiang's residence in her imagination.
Qi Ting's expression became a little uncomfortable, and she turned her head to look behind her from time to time, Yu Fu's little hand was holding a girl who was about her size.
This is a little girl who appeared out of nowhere, Qi Ting just went to the kitchen to pour honey water, and saw this little girl and Yu Fu eating crab cakes with a laugh.
She was terrified and annoyed that this wild girl who came from nowhere actually took her position.
"General!"
Before Yu Fu entered the main hall, she called Gu Huaijiang, causing all the servants waiting on the corridor to look at her.
Dongling is a country with strict etiquette, and Yufu's behavior is a bit rude.
But when everyone saw the smile on her face, they didn't care about her impoliteness, instead they thought she was very innocent and lively.
Gu Huaijiang didn't realize it either.
He likes Yufu's sweet voice the most, and calls him with a smile—the great general.
The footsteps approached, Gu Huaijiang looked forward to it, but saw Yufu approaching with a strange little maid.
The little maid looked only eleven or twelve years old, dressed in plain clothes, with a shy and simple smile on her round face.
"General, she is Yaolan, the Yaolan I told you about!"
Gu Huaijiang couldn't remember it for a while, and then he suddenly realized, pointing at Yao Lan in shock.
"You mean, she is the maid who served you since childhood, Yao Lan?"
Yu Fu nodded vigorously happily.
"But why did she appear here..."
A little maid from Immortal Valley unexpectedly appeared in the Hou Mansion without making a sound, and no mansion soldiers noticed her whereabouts.
How can this be
Gu Huaijiang frowned slightly and looked at Qi An.
Qi An knew that this matter was of great importance, so he hurriedly bowed down and admitted his mistake.
He is the chief steward of the mansion, and if anything happens in the mansion, it is his fault in duty.
Seeing this situation, Yu Fu thought that Gu Huaijiang was angry, so he reached behind his back and grabbed Yao Lan's hand, holding it tightly to signal her not to be afraid.
"General, are you angry?"
As soon as Gu Huaijiang lowered his head, he saw Yu Fu's innocent eyes with a look of panic.
He quickly explained to her with a smile, to calm her down.
"No, I'm just curious, how did she appear in the Hou's mansion?"
Qi Ting lowered her head in shock, only felt that Gu Huaijiang's expression just now was like her father Qi Zhou coaxing her.
But Qi Zhou is just a steward of the Marquis's Mansion, but Gu Huaijiang is a dignified general in Dongling Kingdom!
How could he dote on an illegitimate daughter so much
Qi An is used to it.
From when Gu Huaijiang trimmed the crumbs in her hair in front of Gu Xiang and Gu Yi, Qi An understood his kindness.
Seeing that he was not angry, Yu Fu smiled reassuringly.
"What's so strange about this? My master is the god of medicine. He wants to send a maid to the Hou's mansion. There are many ways. The general doesn't have to worry. I think the master is just worried about me."
Gu Huaijiang nodded.
He brought Yufu to the imperial capital of Dongling from the border not far from Immortal Valley, and Xun Chi should be worried as a human teacher.
As Yu Fu said, he is a god of medicine, and it is not difficult to send a little maid to the Hou's mansion.
He shook his head helplessly.
"What does your master think? Not only wants you to go down the mountain to practice, but also arranges fake mothers and maids around you. How does this look like practice?"
When Yao Lan heard this, she looked at Gu Huaijiang ignorantly.
experience
It turned out that Yufu told him so...
Yu Fu grabbed Yao Lan's hand from behind, signaling her not to expose him.
She stuck out her tongue, "But I'm so young, going down the mountain to practice alone, am I courting death?"
makes sense.
As soon as she left the mountain gate, the hired mother was dispersed by the horse team, and she herself was tied back by Lao Jin.
If you met a bad person, I'm afraid something would have happened long ago.
"Don't worry, with me here, you can practice casually in Dongling, and it doesn't matter if you walk sideways."
Gu Huaijiang carefully avoided her bud head, smiled and stroked the top of her head with an extremely gentle expression.
