Just as Luo Ran was about to stand up and leave, he saw Aunt Du saying to the old lady: "Old lady, please have mercy on me. I'm old and my brain is not working well. This is my first day dealing with things in the house, and I almost fell into trouble in the morning." I've missed the breakfast of the masters of each courtyard. If this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the sun tomorrow."
The old lady glared at her angrily: "That's nonsense, but I only asked you to take charge of it for a few days, and you complained endlessly. The second son's family has been in charge for so many years, and yet..."
Suddenly he swallowed back the rest of his words: "Forget it, fortunately I can still work on my old bones for two years, so you can work hard on it. If there is anything you haven't done yet, you can get it later."
Aunt Du hurriedly said: "Old madam, you are not in good health. Didn't the doctor before you tell you to think less and rest more? If you get tired again, the pillars of this mansion will collapse. Got it!"
The old lady said helplessly: "Then what do you think we should do! We can't let this whole family have nothing to eat!"
Aunt Du smiled apologetically and said, "I do have an idea."
Old lady: "Oh, tell me and I'll listen."
Aunt Du glanced at Luo Ran and said: "The third lady is about to give birth now, and we don't want to make her tired. The ladies are also young, so, eldest lady, can I ask you for a favor?"
Luo Ran saw that the two of them had almost finished singing, and finally got involved with him. He smiled and said: "My grandmother also said that I grew up in Jiangnan since I was a child. I am not familiar with the situation in Fuzhong and Jingzhong. I really don't know how to help." What are you going to do with Aunt Du?"
She returned what the old lady had said to her when she wanted her private property back.
Aunt Du pretended not to hear it, and said with a smile: "Miss, you are being humble. I have heard that you took care of the Marquis's private property and the eldest lady's dowry in an orderly manner."
Luo Ran raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Who did Grandma Du hear this from? I've been busy these days, and I haven't had time to meet the stewards yet. I didn't expect that Grandma Du is better informed than me."
Aunt Du didn't expect that she would be caught accidentally. Fortunately, Luo Ran didn't hold on to her.
Finally, the old lady said directly: "Well, Ran'er is not young anymore, and it's time to learn to be a housekeeper. It's a good time to exercise. If you have anything you don't understand, just ask Aunt Du, or come and ask me. become."
"Yes, my granddaughter is entirely at her grandmother's command."
This time Luo Ran didn't refuse.
But when Grandma Du asked her to take charge of the kitchen, she refused.
Because there are too many hands and feet in the kitchen, she doesn't want to accidentally take the blame for others, and as for the expenses, she believes that her grandmother will definitely not let go.
It happened to be the spring time for the master's servants to change into spring clothes, so he simply accepted this job.
In fact, every quarter and every year, there are rules for the clothes of the people under the master. You only need to order people to send the things over at that time, and then write down their requests that are not excessive.
After coming out of Ningfuyuan, Youqing was still a little worried: "Miss, your body is really not suitable for exertion now."
Luo Ran: "It doesn't matter, it's just that you have to run a few more times."
Before it even started, Luo Ran had already thought that someone would definitely take this opportunity to embarrass her. But then again, even if she did nothing, would those people let her go?
Not really.
Therefore, there is no need to worry so much. In the worst case, the soldiers will block it and the water will cover it.
Besides, Luo Ran thought of something and said, "Don't worry, I won't be able to control it for a few days."
Youqing also thought about it and nodded: "That's right. Next month is the haircut ceremony for the second young lady. The old lady will not keep them in prison for so long."
Luo Ran smiled and said nothing.
This is on the one hand, and on the other hand, judging from the past life, news will come in a few days: Li Yuanliang has been promoted and his family has moved to Beijing.
Li Yuanliang is Li's biological brother and the old lady's nephew.
Grandma would not embarrass her family.
It's just that this life is different since I was reborn. Many things have changed, but I don't know what will happen in the future.
But no matter what, her purpose will not change.
When she returned to Ningxiang Courtyard, a snow-white dumpling suddenly ran towards her, started to rub around her ankles, and finally rolled on the ground with her feet in the air.
When Chunyu followed him out and saw it, he suddenly shouted angrily: "You little thing! I just finished giving you a bath, and you started acting like a baby again when I saw the lady! You're all dirty, let's see if the lady can hug you!"
Luo Ran looked at the cat lying belly up at her feet, meowing at her from time to time, as if asking for a hug.
As soon as he saw it, Luo Ran could remember the way the man held it and sat under the lamp last night, and he couldn't help but get a layer of tiny pimples all over his body.
Seeing her folding her arms, Youqing hurriedly said, "Miss, she's cold. Let's go back to the house quickly."
Pointing at the cat on the ground, he said: "Chun Yu, please wipe it again to avoid getting it dirty and soft."
"Why."
As the spring rain fell, he hugged the cat and left, then hugged him back after a while. Chunyu liked this cat very much and wanted to hug it all the time without letting go.
But this cat is also strange. The more he likes him, the less he likes to talk to him. Instead, he tries his best to please Luo Ran, who is indifferent to him.
Either he was rubbing against Luo Ran's calf, or he was sitting on the ground and watching her yelling helplessly.
In the end, Luo Ran had no choice but to pick it up, and kept comforting himself: the spring rain has washed it, it has been washed, and there is no smell of that person anymore.
Worried, Luo Ran lowered his head and smelled it again. Sure enough, there was only the aroma of soap locust.
Only then did she hold it with confidence.
The cat lay in her arms and fell asleep. Looking at the fluffy and white dumplings, Luo Ran's heart finally softened.
Chunyu smiled and said: "Miss, we can't call it cat or cat all day long. We should give it a name, right?"
Luo Ran raised his hand and gently smoothed the cat's fur. The cat purred comfortably, enjoying it very much.
"What do you think it should be called?"
Luo Ran asked smoothly.
Chunyu tilted her head and thought carefully and said, "It's so white, why not call it Snowball."
"No."
Youqing said suddenly.
Chunyu: "Why?"
Youqing glanced at Luo Ran and said, "It conflicts with the second lady's name. It will not be good to spread the word."
A few days after the spring rain came, I forgot about this for a while and stuck out my tongue in embarrassment.
Luo Ran didn't care: "It doesn't matter, just think of another one."
Therefore, Chunyu thought about it and felt that it was not good, and Chunyu didn't like what she thought about.
Finally, both of them looked at Luo Ran: "Miss, it's you who do it."
Luo Ran looked down at the kitten, remembering last night when the little thing showed its claws and scratched someone's hand with blood, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Just call him General."
"General?"
"General?"
Neither Youqing nor Chunyu understood.
The two of them looked at the white and soft little thing, feeling sympathy in their hearts.
Luo Ran liked it very much: "Yes, General! It sounds so majestic! I hope it will live up to its name and catch more stinky mice in the future!"
The word "rat" was spoken with gritted teeth.
