    chapter eight

    The time in the inner house is easy to pass. When Fu Shenshi is not looking for something, Yin Hongdou cooks and learns things with Liao's mother. The day passes quickly.

    In the blink of an eye, Ching Ming Festival is here.  When everyone in the Marquis of Changxing went to worship their ancestors, Fu Shenshi went through the cutscene and returned to Chongxiao Courtyard not long after.

    Then in May, there was a happy event for the promotion of the second master. Naturally, the Marquis of Changxing had to hold a big event. Before that, Mrs. Fu ordered people to buy carefully cultivated peonies, and ordered people to spread the word in various houses and courtyards, calling out  The grandchildren gathered in the flower hall to enjoy the prosperity, beauty and magnificence of the peonies.

    Chongxiao Courtyard naturally also received the invitation.

    Mother Liao handed the post to Fu Shenshi, and said with a smile: "This is the first time this year, the old lady brought girls and gentlemen together." She put away her smile, and said, "The last time you went out was during the Ching Ming Festival.  It's time, this time it's better to go out to relax. Besides, the old lady has a lot of dislikes towards Dafang, so don't let them take advantage of it, Mr. Liu."

    After pausing his pen, Fu Shenshi said without raising his head, "Okay."

    Putting down the post, Liao's mother left. She went to the wing and told Yin Hongdou that Fu Shenshi was going to the flower hall to attend a banquet in two days, and asked her to prepare some snacks for Fu Liu to satisfy his hunger.

    Yin Hongdou had never participated in a large-scale event in the Hou Mansion, so she asked, "Is the food in the flower hall not to Liu Ye's appetite?"

    Mother Liao said: "That's not true, but I don't feel relieved when there are many people. By the way, you have to follow when the time comes. I'm afraid Shi Yan won't be able to take care of her alone."

    Yin Hongdou asked curiously, "Shi Yan is going too?"

    As far as Yin Hongdou knows, Shi Yan is also fifteen years old this year, and he has been with Fu Shenshi for many years. If he was not kicked out of the outer courtyard because he served his master who was in a special situation, it would be understandable.  There are so many, it will be inconvenient for him to follow.

    Liao's mother said calmly: "Shi Yan is a person without roots, so it's okay to go."

    Covering her mouth in vain, Yin Hongdou was really taken aback. She always thought that Shi Yan was very milky, but she didn't expect that he was a little eunuch.  She couldn't help but think too much, maybe it's because Fu Shenshi used him so much that he castrated Shi Yan.

    Mother Liao immediately explained: "Shi Yan entered the mansion six years ago. At that time, he was sold into the palace by his family. For some reason, he was kicked out because he failed to pass the election. It was the sixth master who took him in. Speaking of it, it was also fate.  If it weren't for this status, how could he serve the master in the inner courtyard until this age."

    Foreign men are not allowed to be on duty in the inner court, except for the young servants of Chui Piao, who became an exception in the Changxing Marquis Mansion when Shi Yan lost his roots.

    With a sigh of emotion, Liao's mother said: "Shi Yan is a loyal man, and Liu Ye is really kind and rewarded."

    Yin Hongdou never disagreed, but she caught a detail and asked, "Then Shi Yan knew about the sixth master?" She was referring to the matter of Fu Shenshi's lame leg.

    With a fierce face, Liao's mother said: "He knew but didn't dare to say it." Then she said angrily: "You damn girl, don't ask about such things in the future. If you know too much about the noble family, you will lose your life.  "

    Grinning, Yin Hongdou said: "I don't ask."

    Liao's mother was worried, so she said seriously: "In the past five or six years, how many maids have come to Chongxiao Courtyard, few of them left safely, and those who died were smart. Hongdou, you are a clever and responsible girl.  After two more years at most, you should be released from the mansion to marry someone. With the credit of serving the sixth master, the eldest lady can't treat you badly, understand?"

    The chick nodded like pecking rice, and Yin Hongdou said: "Thank you, Mama Liao, for your suggestion, I know all about it." She moved closer to Mama Liao again, and said, "I also want to serve the master well at the moment, but the sixth master is thinking about it."  It's hard to guess, about those maids in the past, can mother Liao tell me one or two things, so that I can serve as a warning."

    Liao's mother was not wary of this, so she picked out something memorable and told Yin Hongdou.

    It was the year when Fu Shenshi was fourteen years old. The lady from the sewing room sent over shoes that didn't fit her feet.  condemn.  The servant girl who had been by his side for several years advised him to stop, so as not to upset the Da Furen, and said that sooner or later he would wipe out all other people's concerns and end up being disgusted by others.

    Fu Shenshi was annoyed, and kicked the maid out of the mansion to marry him, but it was useless how much the maid cried and begged.  The other maids became more and more well-behaved, but they couldn't escape the moodiness of the master, so they were all sent out of the house.

    Yin Hongdou rubbed her chin and pondered carefully, what the maid said was from the bottom of her heart, but Fu Shenshi had undergone a drastic change, her temperament had changed a long time ago, her self-esteem was strong, the maid scolded him like that, it was like exposing his scars, it would be strange not to annoy him.

    &nbsHe knew that these two were the brothers of Fu Shenshi's mother and compatriots, the eldest son and third master of Marquis Changxing, and only these two would communicate with Fu Liu.

    Fu Shenshi nodded lightly, greeted the old lady, got a polite response, and asked Shi Yan to push him to sit next to his brother.

    Fu Shenshi's arrival interrupted the excitement in the flower hall, but within a moment, it returned to normal.

    The old lady smiled and talked with the children and grandchildren of several families from above, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that her preference was, after all, the grandchildren of the second family of direct relatives.

    Two quarters of an hour later, the old lady was thirsty and drank a sip of tea, and asked people to bring in some pots of peonies for everyone to enjoy, so that the young children and grandchildren could write and compose poems for fun.

    The young ladies and young gentlemen of the Hou Mansion have to read and write since they were young, and writing poems is not a problem for them. Besides, Fu Shenshi used to be the most beautiful, but now he is a disabled man with low ambition. He has not published for many years, and his knowledge must have been abandoned.  , and it was their turn to show off to Fu Liu.

    The young buddies are especially restless, the two brothers of the second room are gearing up, and the eldest son of the third room is also eager to try.

    Half a quarter of an hour later, all the partitions in the hall were opened, a shelf was set up under the corridor, and blue curtains were laid out on it, and the potted peonies were carried into the flower hall like flowing water and put into the curtains.  The sun shines on the blooming flowers through the hanging curtains, and the breeze blows gently, and the big peonies are looming, and the appearance is very rich.

    Yin Hongdou also looked over and praised secretly. She had seen peonies before, but she had never seen peonies like this.

    The maids and women on duty in the flower hall brought in five or six long tables, and the maids followed with pens, ink, paper and inkstones. On each table were placed a set of four treasures of the study, paperweights, pen holders and other utensils.

    As soon as these things were placed, Ziqing, Pan's servant girl, entered the flower hall and reported to the old lady in front of everyone, saying: "Mrs. Xiao Shan passed by the Hou Mansion and wanted to bring her family members to visit the old lady. The second lady is in the hall  Hospitality."

    Mrs. Xiao Shanbo came at the right time.  Her natal family happened to be good at cultivating peonies, and her grandfather was a famous master of Danqing back then, so it couldn't be more suitable for her to come today.

    The faces of the people in the first room and the third room are not very good-looking. No wonder the old lady is eager to buy peonies from other places and come back to enjoy them before the month of peony blooming. It's just because the second room, Fu and Fifth Master, divorced at the end of last year, and now it's here.  It's time to marry again.  Although Xiao Shanbo is also a nobleman who inherited the title from generation to generation, his heirs are few and far between.  Now it seems that the old lady and Mrs. Pan have their eyes on the girl from Uncle Xiao's family.

    Fu Shenshi tightened his hand holding the wheelchair, his face was gloomy, what kind of peony banquet was just to see the girl for Fu Wuxiang, and the old lady brought people from the other two rooms to serve as a foil.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
