"Open your eyes wide and look carefully. In front of you are the masters of the Li family. This is the Marquis of Chang 'an County, personally appointed by His Majesty. This is his wife, and this is the Second Miss …" Uncle Li stood in front of the servants and said loudly.
Now there were dozens of people in the Viscount's Mansion. Naturally, it was different from before. All kinds of daily affairs needed to be taken care of. Of course, these things could not all be handed over to Li Yi or Ruyi. Of course, a housekeeper was indispensable.
Madame Dowager specially asked Uncle Li to help her manage these affairs. That was to say, from now on, Uncle Li was the housekeeper of the Viscount's Mansion.
"There are only so many masters in the mansion. You must be respectful and not disrespectful. Except for the maids, no one is allowed to enter or leave the inner residence …" It was the first time that the servants of the Li family met their masters and listened to the housekeeper's words. They stood respectfully in the same place and secretly remembered everyone's faces. They were perturbed. They did not know what the temperament of this Lord was like and whether he was easy to get along with. What was the temper of Madame Dowager? She might have to serve him carefully these days.
They were all registered as slaves and were the property of the Viscount's Mansion. If they accidentally violated the taboo of their masters, no one would speak up for them even if they were drowned in a well.
"All right, all of you go and do your own things. There are not many people in the house. Just do what you should do on a daily basis." Li Yi waved his hand to the crowd of servants and said, "Madame Dowager has poor eyesight. Pick two clever maids to serve Madame Dowager and let the others do their own things. In addition, for the first time you meet, each servant will be rewarded with a sum of money from the accountant. "
There was a lack of manpower, so Uncle Li was both the housekeeper and the accountant.
Many of the servants were delighted to hear this. This amount was already a month's salary for them in the Viscount's Mansion. More importantly, Lord Jue was generous and seemed to be amiable, so he shouldn't be difficult to get along with. Their days in the future would probably be much easier.
Even some of the pretty maids began to feel excited in their hearts.
If their appearance could catch the Lord's eyes, they would really become a phoenix. Even if they could not become a concubine, their status would be great …
However, when they saw the Lord's wife, Second Miss, and even their personal maids, they could not help but feel discouraged.
With their appearance, they really could not compare. Besides, Second Miss actually carried a sword with her. If — the consequences were too serious, all the maids would give up this unrealistic idea.
…
…
When they came from Qing 'an Prefecture, they traveled light and had almost no luggage. However, the Viscount's Mansion had all the necessary furniture. If they really needed something, they could go out and buy it.
When they came, they saw that the Viscount's Lord's Mansion, Lord's Mansion, Yi, Lord's Mansion, Lord's Mansion, Lord, Lord's Mansion, Lord, Lord's Mansion.
Li Yi and Ruyi naturally had to choose a courtyard in the Inner Mansion. Duanwu, Xiao Yi, and Lord's Mansion stayed together. Miss.Liu chose another. Xiao Huan did not dare to live alone, so she stayed with her. Fang and Uncle lived in the Outer Mansion.
As the mistress, Ruyi was taken by two maids to familiarize herself with the Viscount's Mansion. Xiao Huan also followed. Miss.Liu was tidying up her own room. Li Yi sat on the stone bench in the courtyard. The maids and servants who passed by had to salute him respectfully. All of them were proof that this place would belong to him in the future.
Imagine, the sunlight was slightly intoxicating, the weather was beautiful, leisurely lying in the courtyard and basking in the sun. The two pretty maids on the left and right massaged his arms and legs. Then there was a talented maid who sang and danced. When he was tired of watching ordinary dances, he asked Miss Liu Er to perform a sword dance. With this life, what more could he ask for?
Half a year ago, he was still hiding in the mountains, drinking porridge and stealing chickens. Now, he had crossed the threshold of being well-off. He lived in the most prosperous city with a group of maids and servants. He officially lived the luxurious life of a feudal aristocrat.
"Young master, are we not going back to Qing 'an Mansion in the future?" Fang asked with a confused face.
Li Yi felt that he had fallen. He was actually thinking about whether there was a big mansion with maids and servants in Qing 'an Mansion. It seemed that it was easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. He had not even started to enjoy, but he had already forgotten the "hard" life before.
"Anyway, it's not too far. If your wife agrees, you can come to the capital with her and Zhuzi. If Old Xu and the others are willing to come, you can come with them. There will always be a place for you here." They had gone through the toughest days together and experienced life and death together. The group of people far away in Qing 'an Mansion were actually the most trustworthy people.
"Okay, I'll go back tomorrow!" Fang had obviously been waiting for Li Yi to say this. He slapped his thigh and said.
After going through so many things, they were used to treating Li Yi as their backbone. The son-in-law and mistress were both in the capital, so there was no point in them staying in Qing 'an Fu. Those people were restless in their bones. If they followed the son-in-law, there would be exciting things to do …
…
…
In just a short half a day, all the servants in the Li Mansion had figured out the situation in the mansion. At the same time, they let out a long sigh of relief.
Lord Jue and Madam's temperament was very good. They did not say a harsh word to them. Second Miss gave off a cold feeling and seemed difficult to get along with. However, when a maid accidentally tipped over a basin of water and wet her shoes, Second Miss did not say a word of reprimand.
In addition, Madam's personal maid was very favored. She was just like the other master of the house. She must not be treated as a servant.
Everyone secretly rejoiced at their luck. They did not have to worry about things like drowning ponds and filling wells in the future.
Miss.Liu returned to her room with a face full of anger. Li Yi had chased her out of the courtyard in the name of going to bed early.
"It's only been half a month. What's there to catch up on?" Li Yi curled his lips. He closed the courtyard door and walked into his room.
Ruyi stood by the bed and tidied up the bedding. She turned back and quickly turned back. Her gentle voice traveled over. "When I came to the capital, I thought I would be going back soon. I didn't bring much with me. If we are going to stay in the capital in the future, I'm afraid we will have to go back as soon as possible to bring all the important things. At the very least, we have to bring the money at home."
Li Yi walked over slowly and hugged her from behind. Ruyi's hands paused. Her pretty face immediately turned red.
"Hu- hubby …" Her breathing was slightly hurried and her voice was barely audible.
"My wife's words from before, do they still stand?" Li Yi whispered in her ear.
Of course, she knew what Li Yi was referring to. She slowly turned around. She was half a head lower than Li Yi. Her face was even redder. She looked up into his eyes and nodded slightly.
Li Yi lowered his head to look at this flawless face. This was his wife, the person he was destined to spend the rest of his life with. Taking a deep breath, he exerted a bit of strength and hugged her tightly, pressing his lips against her smooth, jade-like forehead.
Then he kissed her eyes, nose, and lips …
In the room, the candlelight flickered. A gust of wind blew in from an unknown source. The flame flickered a few times before it quietly extinguished.
The beauty lowered her head shyly. The gifted scholar raised his eyebrows and smiled. A room full of love.
