Chapter 418
"Master, what should we do next?"

"Cold salad!"

The Hou Mansion is so big and the people are so fierce, so we might as well just kill them out.

"Madam Eighteen, the time is coming soon, the juniors are waiting for you, why don't you rest after the tea ceremony?" Bai Zhi, who was going to pass the message in the lobby just outside the door, said cautiously.

"Let's go."

Lan Xi got up from her weakness. She had to pass this first hurdle sooner or later. She could just wait and see the opportunity, but if it didn't work, she could only rush forward!
"Yes, Madam Eighteen, I will help you."

Bai Zhi and Ci Wu entered the house to support Lan Xi, Lan Xi had black lines all over her head, if it wasn't for the fact that these two maids didn't have martial arts, she would have thought that Bai Zhi and Ci Wu were going to drag her out.

After leaving the courtyard where the client lived, Bai Zhi and Ciwu helped Lan Xi onto the sedan chair. A few powerful soldiers steadily lifted the sedan chair and walked quickly to the hall of the Marquis Mansion.

Her footsteps were steady and strong, and her balance was well grasped. Lan Xi didn't feel the slightest tremor while sitting in the sedan chair. Along the way, Li Lan Xi had a relatively intuitive understanding of the Hou Mansion.

The entire Hou Mansion is full of generals, and the layout of the courtyard is extremely simple, without any fancy things, and even the courtyard is planted with grass.
On the contrary, the courtyard where the client lives is more or less feminine.

All the way down the road, Lan Xi felt that Hou's mansion was big, clean, simple, and masculine. Occasionally, he met a few women and maids passing by on the road, and they all had good physical fitness.

Well, except for the client and her two maids, everyone in the Hou Mansion is healthy and strong.

"Master, if we have to rush in later, as long as we don't accidentally break into the martial arts arena, there shouldn't be any difficulty."

"Ah."

While communicating with the dog belt, several soldiers had already carried Lan Xi to the entrance of the lobby, and then directly carried the sedan chair in.

now.

In the lobby, there were quite a few people sitting around on the left and right sides. When they saw Lan Xi coming, they all got up, bowed and saluted, and said in unison:

"Greetings to the old lady."

"Say hello to grandma."

This. uh.
"Free gift!"

When Lan Xi looked at the people in the room, she always felt extremely awkward. She didn't reach out to hit the smiling faces. The people in the room, old and young, all treated her respectfully, and she couldn't do anything if she wanted to get angry.

Although the Hou family is a general, they are undoubtedly masters of attacking minds. Lan Xi is a little confused. Since the client is the funeral object that the old Hou Ye married into the door, why should he be so respectful and polite to the client, and even raise the client? In vain and fat, responsive to everything.

Even if the client didn't take the initiative to ask for anything, the people in the Hou Mansion would still go out of their way to think of a funerary object.

"Old lady, my daughter-in-law heard that you were hit on the head by a book today, and you are still dizzy now. If you don't wait, don't serve tea one by one, and waste time."

Lan Xi took the seat of honor in the lobby and looked at Zhen Lian, the eldest daughter-in-law of the old marquis. This eldest daughter-in-law was also born in a family of military generals. She followed her husband to the battlefield to kill enemies at a young age. Now she is already in her sixties and has half a hundred hair. The comb is meticulous, the waist is straight and full of energy.

Wearing an improved soft armor, she stood there with a majestic and heroic spirit. Just as Zhen Lian finished speaking, a tall man next to her, who did not look old at all, had a pair of tiger eyes shining, and a white beard trembling around her mouth. The trembling elderly man said:
"Old lady, the Qingsong Courtyard has been tidied up. If the old lady thinks there is still something wrong, just tell the juniors."

Ok?
Lan Xi was slightly startled. The plot seemed wrong, right? The client was not a burial object?

There are a lot of people in Hou's mansion, why should they support her for the elderly?It's not necessary at all
Moreover, although the old Hou Ye was celebrating the funeral, so many people in the lobby neither wore hemp nor mourning, and the house did not look like a funeral at all, which is really strange.

"Grandmother, my grandson will serve you tea."

At this time, a little kid with pink make-up came out from behind. He was no more than ten years old. His childish face already had the majesty of a family of military commanders. What he was wearing was not the common shorts worn by other children. He wears long trousers, but a smaller version of soft armor.

Really walking like the wind, standing like a pine tree, Lan Xi glanced at the little boy's little hand holding the tea bowl, there were calluses on the tiger's mouth.

"I also invite the old lady to drink tea. After drinking this cup of tea, the old lady will have to worry about Hou's house." Zhen Lian spoke first, and the third daughter-in-law and the fifth daughter-in-law stood behind her nodding in agreement.

"Master, why do I feel something is wrong? When Zhen Lian said this, why did she look relieved? And the third and fifth daughters-in-law are just like Zhen Lian."

Zhonggui originally refers to the cooking work that ancient women must master before they get married. It is a skill that must be mastered in addition to husband and child, and it is the responsibility of ancient women to the family.

The ancients said: If you don't have a chance, you will feed in the middle, and you will be chaste.

It means that the housewife of the family takes the middle feed seriously, and then a family will appear auspicious and auspicious.

A home without a mistress, no matter how big the family is, will be described as a "clean pot and a cold stove"!

If a woman in the backyard masters the middle feed, it is equivalent to holding the money, food, rice and noodles of the house in her hands, and even the life and death of the servants. If something goes wrong, there must be a monster, so Lan Xi has to continue the conspiracy theory.

She is just a No. 18 concubine who was married into the door by the old Hou Ye and forgot. Why should the people of the Hou Mansion entrust Zhongwei to her?
If the reason is unclear and the logic is illogical, it is not something normal people do, okay!
Seeing Lan Xi sitting there silently, the crowd of people all sat back and waited quietly, except for the little kid who was holding the tea bowl steadily with both hands.

what is this?Forced?Or after she drank the bowl of tea in the little boy's hand, she was ready to do it?

Lan Xi's mind turned a lot, and it seemed that there was no other way but to rush forward.

Got it!
Thinking too much now is just wishful thinking, and the next development of the matter will be to drink the tea in the tea bowl before she knows how the other party plays cards.

"Okay, I'll drink my grandson's cup of hot tea first."

With a warm smile on her face, Lan Xi reached out and took the tea bowl from the little kid's hand, "Sure!"

It's a bit interesting. The tea bowl in the Hou Mansion is not pure porcelain. It feels heavy in the hand. It is actually made of fired metal. It is difficult for a little kid to hold it in his hand for so long.

Seeing Lan Xi take a sip of tea, she was obviously relieved. Before Lan Xi could say anything, the eldest daughter-in-law Zhen Lian waved her hand and several soldiers who had been waiting outside the door came in carrying several nanmu boxes. .

Zhen Lian walked in front of Lan Xi, and she had several large bunches of keys in her hands, which weighed at least a dozen catties: "Madam, these are the keys of the Hou Mansion. There are so many years in the box. Please collect the account books of the Hou Mansion." good."
