There are two masters and servants. The wife is sweet and generous, and the maid is also charming and charming.
And because he was lost, he specifically asked the young lady if she wanted to help. A woman who can teach such a maid is most likely to have a pure heart.
Su Qingluan and Yaoguang looked at each other and decided to hitch a ride.
After getting on the carriage, Su Qingluan was even more sure of her opinion. Lady Yan's eyes were pure, and she only looked at her and Qingluan with curiosity, but even though their clothes were much more exquisite and gorgeous than Su Qingluan's, However, they did not roll their eyes at Su Qingluan, who was only wearing coarse cloth clothes, nor did they say anything rude. They just whispered to each other and exchanged greetings.
Su Qingluan naturally brought out the superficial reason - to inquire about her husband.
However, Su Qingluan's explanation to the outside world was that the two got separated midway. When she heard that her husband had entered the city first, she followed him. Of course, Yao Guang's current external identity is still "Su Qingluan's cousin", and she uses the name "Yao Yao".
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Yan lamented that it must not be easy for two women to go to Beijing. Su Qingluan was worried that this little girl was really overzealous and would step in to help, so she quickly comforted her and said: "My husband's housekeeper is also coming with us. He We are looking at the house that can catch our eyes."
"Oh? I wonder what kind of house Madam Su would like?" Madam Yan became interested after hearing this, "Although my family does not have any prominent family property, we do have one or two idle properties."
In fact, Madam Yan was kind-hearted. Looking at Su Qingluan and Yaoguang's plain clothes, she felt that it would not be so smooth for this group of people to find a house in the capital. It just so happened that there was an unused garden in her home. Although it was located in a remote place and was only a second-level house, it still had a place to stay.
Madam Yan was still thinking that the acquaintance was fate, and the house had been idle because of the poor location. At worst, the two of them and their housekeeper could move in with some discounts. With the popularity, the house would probably not be too big. Too dilapidated.
Of course, Mrs. Yan is not a good person for no reason. She really thinks that if the house is idle, it will be idle. This can make one party a small profit, at least the house will not be empty in vain, and the other party will have a place to stay. It is a win-win situation.
Although Su Qingluan didn't know what Yan Niangzi was thinking, she didn't mind if she knew it - after all, everyone wants to rent out vacant squares to make money, which is human nature.
However, she thought that if three people wanted to live separately, they would need three rooms, and the house should not be too simple, with at least two or three entrances, and the location should not be too remote. It would be best if it could be half a round trip from the busiest areas. Within an hour's walk.
When Su Qingluan was talking at first, Lady Yan was still listening. Later, not to mention the little girl couldn't help laughing, even Lady Yan used a handkerchief to laugh softly as she didn't want to be too funny. Cover your mouth and nose.
"Ms. Su..." Mrs. Yan sighed, "If you are looking for a house with such conditions, the price will be high."
Su Qingluan understood that the other party was thinking about her. After all, she wanted to rent a good house in the capital with her "simply dressed" appearance.
This is a bit like a well-intentioned person who sees a Beipiao who sells goods on the street and wants to rent a building within the third ring road of a first-tier city like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, close to the subway, transparent from north to south, and with its own elevator. It is equally unreliable.
Of course, there are definitely houses that meet the conditions mentioned by Su Qingluan, and there are quite a few - as the same saying goes, "The price is probably not low."
Although Su Qingluan is not short of money, even in this capital city where everyone is either rich or noble, he is not in a hurry to show off his wealth too much. So she just nodded and smiled: "Thank you, Madam Yan, for the suggestion. I'll go back and discuss it with the housekeeper."
Madam Yan thought for a while and said, "If you really can't rent a suitable house, then go to this place and ask for Madam Yan Min." Then she gave a list of addresses. It turns out that Lady Yan’s name is Yan Min.
Su Qingluan recited it silently three times and wrote it down secretly, but she always felt that this address seemed to be seen somewhere and it seemed familiar.
This sense of immediate vision passed by in a flash and was not caught by Su Qingluan.
Since the other party had reported his name, Su Qingluan naturally also wanted to report his name as a courtesy.
Yan Min heard Su Qingluan's name and sighed: "This is such a good name!"
"But it doesn't quite match Mrs. Su!" Xia Ying joked.
In fact, Su Qingluan came to the city to grab a bite of rice and then rushed to "Su Ji". He had just been lost for a long time, so now he felt a little embarrassed - although Su Qingluan and Yaoguang didn't care much about this, However, their image does not match the names "Qingluan" and "Yaoguang" for the time being.
And Su Qingluan could also feel that Xia Ying was really too young and had no control over her words, so she just said such a thing. There was no great malice in itself.
However, she understood that it was one thing, and that this sentence should not be said out loud was another thing.
Sure enough, before the words were spoken, Yan Min, who was smiling at the side, turned dark. Even Xia Ying herself realized that this sentence was deeply inappropriate even if it was meant as a joke.
"Xia Ying!" Yan Min called the maid in a deep voice, contrary to his previous gentleness.
As soon as the little girl looked at it, she knew that her wife was really angry. The slowly moving carriage was still shaking slightly, but the little girl knelt down firmly and said, "Madam Su, please calm down. Madam, please calm down. My maid has nothing to say." It’s really wrong to block it!”
Yan Min also looked at Su Qingluan very apologetically: "I'm really sorry, Yan Min's lax tutoring made Madam Su and cousin Ling watch a joke." Then she turned to Xia Ying, "You go out first and follow the little boy outside. Let’s go together, I’ll tell you when I get back later!”
Whether a maid or a servant, as a servant, it is a great honor and reward to be able to ride in the carriage with the master. Such servants are generally very loved by the master.
As for ordinary servants, they either walked beside the convoy, or sat on the shaft of the carriage, driving the carriage and waving their whips.
Being kicked off the carriage is a huge punishment in itself for a favored maid - because compared to the physical pain, the feeling of being reprimanded by the master in public is more sad psychologically.
But Su Qingluan knew at this time that she couldn't interrupt - just like she saw someone else disciplining their children. Even as the "victim", it was inconvenient for her to interrupt in front of the child.
But when Xia Ying got off the carriage with tears in her eyes, Su Qingluan still whispered to Yan Min: "I think Xia Ying doesn't have any ill intentions, it's just an unintentional mistake. Madam Yan, don't be too angry or hurt." body."
Regardless of whether the other party really wants to deal with this girl, or it is just a "strategic punishment" to show off in front of her, Su Qingluan has no intention to embarrass a child half a year younger than himself.
"Ms. Su is lenient, but there are family rules. I don't care if I meet Mrs. Su this time. If we encounter someone difficult next time, our whole family will be implicated by this girl." Yan Min's mood has calmed down. But his face was still as heavy as water.
Obviously, Xia Ying is really going to be held accountable.
