The Salted Fish Concubine of the Qing Dynasty

131-135

Chapter 131

In the courtyard, Qingzhi and Luliu were waiting. When they saw Wu Gege coming, they both knelt down and kowtowed to greet her.

Wu Gege personally helped them up, asked their names, and said with a smile, "It is indeed a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery. Look, both the people and the names are so outstanding."

Luliu took a step forward and flattered, "Gege, you are beautiful and lovely. Compared with you, I am just dirt on the ground, not worthy of being compared with you."

Wu Gege smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed, "Good Luliu, you have a really sweet mouth." She took out two purses from her sleeves and stuffed one into each of them, "Use them to buy candy to sweeten your mouths and make your master happier."

This means satisfaction.

Lvliu heaved a sigh of relief. Regardless of whether this master could be favored in the future, at least he was a good-tempered person, and it was worth her efforts to get this job.

Qingzhi went to pack her luggage, and Lvliu led Wu Gege to walk around the yard for a while.

The yard was not big, and there was not even a private room in the yard, only three main rooms. Wu Gege took a few steps and saw everything. Fortunately, there was a persimmon tree planted next to the bedroom, and the fiery red persimmons on it were dazzling.

Wu Gege reached out and patted the tree trunk, "This tree is good, I like it very much."

Persimmon trees have been auspicious trees since ancient times. Her father once told her that persimmons have seven virtues: "One is longevity, two is plenty of shade, three is no bird nests, four is no insects, five is frost leaves for playing with, six is ​​good fruit to eat, seven is plump leaves for studying."

Now she has such a tree in her yard, isn't it a good omen? If she can have many children and good fortune like the persimmon tree, it will be her blessing in this life.

She picked up a bamboo pole nearby and knocked down a persimmon, told Luliu to wash it, and then turned around and went into the house. The main room was quite spacious, with a bed and a dressing table in the middle, and it could also hold the boxes she brought from home.

Inside was a box full of fabrics and jewelry. My mother said that dowry is a woman's confidence. If she has enough money, she can get by and live well anywhere.

Although this statement is a bit vulgar, it is an eternal truth. Not to mention the mansion, it is the palace of the Lord.

Her father disagreed and scolded, "Don't teach a bad girl. What kind of place is that? With just this little money, you still want to be so arrogant?" After that, he turned around and told Wu Gege, "Don't listen to your mother. Those people in the palace are all people who look at people and serve them according to their tastes. My father is just a prefect. You should be honest and don't make trouble."

"After all, Ama and Eunice can't protect you there."

Wu Gege sniffed and turned things over to divert her attention. She saw a box at the bottom of the box. She opened it and saw some broken silver ingots inside. There were also several silver bills under the silver.

The smile on her lips finally faded. Although Ama was serious, he was a person with a hard mouth and a soft heart. He gave her so many good things, and he was not afraid of the opinions of his brother and sister-in-law.

Wu Gege sat for a while. Lvliu and Qingzhi had already cleaned up the house neatly. She asked if she should pay her respects and kowtow to the masters in the mansion.
