But saying nothing doesn't mean she doesn't do anything.
Jiang Nianjiao only turned to Lianying and said, "Lianying, go to the table and get a few envelopes of silver."
After listening to Jiang Nianjiao's words, Lianying turned around and went into the house.
Within a moment, Lingying brought a tray over.
I saw a few tips on the plate. She had already asked the number of newcomers in each house, so when each house came here to recognize the new master, she had people prepare enough money as early as last night. .
Now that the flower house came over, she naturally only gave them the brocade bag containing one or two taels of silver one by one. This was just as a meeting gift, and secondly, she wanted to let them know who the master was and work hard. Of course, there will be more sweetness in the end.
She smiled and said, "I knew you were coming, so I prepared some money yesterday. But I only have the money because I came, and those who didn't come will naturally have no share."
These people had only heard that Jiang Mansion was rich and wealthy, but they did not expect that they would actually change into brand new clothes and receive a large amount of silver reward.
When meeting such a generous owner, the other people couldn't help but feel grateful.
At the same time, they also recognized the new master's face clearly.
But they didn't expect that the new master would be so young and so beautiful.
Even though last night they were still saying that Lan Jue was more beautiful than a woman, but today they finally knew what true beauty was when they were in front of their new master.
Jiang Nianjiao is naturally sweet. Although she is petite, her sweet appearance makes people fall in love at first sight and cannot take their eyes away.
Jiang Nianjiao was not in a hurry to establish her authority in front of them, so she did not deliberately cover up her softer side today.
The two stewards Zhou who managed the slaves in the rebel army had enough authority to manage them.
Afterwards, Jiang Nianjiao sealed the reward, said a few words casually, and let them go to work, while Jiang Nianjiao led the maids back to the house.
Afterwards, these young men who received silver rewards naturally became more dedicated in their work.
Master Tao originally expected to do the work in Qinglan Courtyard that day until the morning of the next day, but he didn't expect that after these boys got started, the previous day's work would be completed in half a day.
Seeing such changes, Master Tao couldn't be happy.
Although they had to work late that day, they still received a piece of praise and two cents of silver.
When he returned to the house, Lan Jue, who originally said that he had back pain and couldn't get up, was already sitting cross-legged on the kang.
There was a table of delicious food in front of him. Seeing that they were back, Lan Jue just smiled and said, "Are you back?"
When those people heard this, they only looked at Lan Jue in confusion, but Lan Jue smiled and said, "I have prepared a table of wine and food. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Let's have a drink together."
Although these people had already had dinner, Lan Jue's table of wine and food was obviously very tempting. The table was full of chicken, duck and fish, which they might not be able to eat even during the Chinese New Year. So rich.
However, these people obviously didn't know where Lan Jue got this table of food and wine, so they didn't make any move at the moment.
Seeing that one or two of them refused to move forward, Lan Jue took the initiative to come down and said, "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Are you afraid that my wine is poisonous?"
After speaking, he took two cups and poured mellow wine into each cup.
Then he picked up two glasses of wine and handed only one of them to the newcomer who asked for leave for him today. He held one in his hand, "Brother, you worked hard for me to ask for leave today. From now on, we will be brothers living together." I also hope that the elder brother will take care of the younger brother."
Hearing that he was so humble and invited to a banquet, these people didn't have much objection to this young man.
Under Lan Jue's words, the newcomer who was toasted quickly drank the wine Lan Jue offered.
Afterwards, Lan Jue toasted to several other people in the room.
After a group of people drank the wine presented by Lan Jue, the atmosphere was naturally not as stiff as before.
However, one of them couldn't help but ask, "Where did you get such a big banquet?"
Lan Jue was quite proud after hearing this. He did not ask for this leave today in vain. Not only did he find out the residence of the eldest lady of the Jiang family, he also inquired about the eldest lady.
many news. ..
Naturally, he heard all this news from those maids and women.
He is well-born and has a sweet mouth. When one sister barks, that sister coaxes him, which makes a group of sisters feel happy.
At that moment, he not only heard a lot of news, but also coaxed some people from the Jiang family to come over for food.
He also knew that if he wanted to stay in this house successfully, he would naturally need the cooperation of those around him.
Therefore, the banquet he had collected from the maids and ladies was given to these people by borrowing flowers and offering them to the Buddha.
Today they are being soft-spoken and soft-handed. Are they afraid that he will run away in the future and they will not cooperate?
"Don't worry, this banquet was brought by Mrs. Liu from the kitchen. She made it for me when she saw that I was not feeling well today. This was not stolen." Lan Jue whispered.
After what he said, a few people started chatting a little.
But since Lan Jue said this, they naturally no longer doubted him. After all, Lan Jue was a good boy, and it was not like they had not seen the scene where several ladies were jealous of Lan Jue yesterday.
Nowadays, it is not difficult for him to coax a pot of good wine and some food.
It's just that before he did any of his work, he first attracted the heartache of a bunch of ladies and maids. These bachelors were actually envious and jealous.
One of them just said, "Brother Lan, you are so awesome! This is the first time I have seen so many girls being friendly with each other."
After hearing this, Lan Jue was very disapproving. What a good thing it was. How many women had broken their heads for him in Fenghuafang.
But it was naturally impossible for him to talk about his past.
After all, in a normal society, men will probably have a natural jealousy towards men who are liked by women.
But this kind of jealousy is at best the sour fox mentality of not being able to eat the grapes and saying the grapes are sour.
But if they know that they are engaged in that kind of industry, it will be like jealousy has an outlet, and they will use those conventional things to attack themselves.
Therefore, Lan Jue did not answer.
However, in the eyes of some people, his gesture was somewhat of a pretense.
The man couldn't help but said, "What are those maids from the outer courtyard? If he can seduce the maids from Qinglan Court, then he will be considered powerful."
Lan Jue naturally knew that Qinglan Courtyard was Jiang Nianjiao's residence. He just thought it was funny. What kind of maid was he flirting with?
The one he wanted to seduce now was their young lady.
But he also asked casually, "What? Brother, I met the maid from Qinglan Court."
When Lan Jue asked about this, the man felt a little superior.
He couldn't hold back his excitement and said, "That's natural, and today we not only saw the maids of Qinglan Courtyard, but we also saw the eldest lady of the Jiang Mansion. The eldest lady is really beautiful, like a fairy descending to earth." "
"The most important thing is that she looks good and has a good personality. Today we worked in her courtyard, and she even gave us two coins each."
After saying this, the man was indeed a little unhappy when he saw Lan Jue's expression.
He then said, "What a pity! You didn't go, otherwise you would have had a share of the two coins today. But when the eldest lady heard that you asked for leave, she didn't arrange your share for you."
Lan Jue also took it seriously and did not hide his jealousy and regret. He tried his best to get close to the eldest lady of the Jiang family.
As a result, now he didn't even see anyone, but these unrelated people saw the eldest lady before him.
He wished he had known that he could meet the eldest lady in such a simple way. Even if his waist is broken today, he can't ask for leave.
When he thought of this, he felt very sad. Several people around him thought he was regretting not receiving the two coins, so some people comforted him by saying, "Don't be so depressed. The young lady is now the master of the house. She and other members of the house are in charge." The young lady is different. She often intervenes in the affairs of the government. Maybe you can see her next time. If you do, she may give you your share of the money. "
How could Lan Jue care about these two coins? On weekdays in Fenghuafang, two coins would probably not be enough for him to pour into the water and even hear the sound.
However, these people were not from the same group as him, and he was too lazy to explain to them.
Therefore, he only held it
The shoulder of one of them said, "Then I'll lend you some good words. Okay, I won't talk about this anymore, let's just have a good drink."
After saying this, several people began to enjoy the banquet.
After three cups of Huangliang wine, those people started talking. They only talked about their origins, and then they called each other brothers, which was quite lively.
But Lan Jue was very sober. After all, people in Fenghuafang, besides being sharp-tongued and amazing in appearance, also had to be good at drinking and socializing.
If you can't drink enough, let alone the guests being unhappy, even if the guests don't care about it, getting drunk is actually quite dangerous.
Therefore, Lan Jue's drinking capacity was drunk out in Fenghuafang.
Now when he drinks this yellow rice wine, it will naturally become as bland as drinking fresh water wine.
Looking at those people, how ugly they looked when they were drunk, he felt very disgusted in his heart.
At this time, one of them put his hand on Lan Jue's shoulder and said, "Let's have a drink together."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Lan Jue pushed him away.
He didn't want someone to stop him and hug his waist and said, "Brother Lan, your waist is really thin. Tell me the truth, you are actually a woman!"
Hearing this, it ignited Lan Jue's anger.
Although he is just a husband, he also hates being thought of as a woman.
Now these people were very drunk again, so he punched the man who was more frivolous than him without thinking.
Anyway, these drunkards were so drunk that they would not know who they were beaten by today.
After being knocked down by Lan Jue's punch, the man was indeed drunk. After muttering a few words, he fell down on the ground beside the kang and fell asleep without thinking of fighting back.
