As the ancestor of the family, Mrs. Gu naturally agreed from the bottom of her heart to such a good thing as spreading branches and spreading leaves to multiply children. She had previously wanted to add a few reliable concubines to her three sons' rooms, but the eldest son was in the capital.

As an official, the second son was fighting in Jiaozhi, and she really didn't like the third son, so the matter was delayed. Since these girls were sent by British officials this time, she personally saw them and assigned them to them one by one.

He went down, leaving only the two reserved for the second son to serve him temporarily.

Suddenly, there were twelve people with special and embarrassing status in the family. The girls, wives and mothers-in-law in the inner courtyard also complained about it. Even the girls who served in each room were not satisfied with the new arrival.

A few were quite dissatisfied.

On this day, Qiu Hen was cleaning up Zhang Yue's room when she suddenly heard the curtain outside. When she looked back, she saw Linglong, the eldest girl next to Dongfang's family, bending down and walking in. Feeling strange, she dropped the duster in her hand and greeted her.

He went up and asked with a smile: "Sister Linglong, why do you have time to sit here today?"

"How could I have so much free time!" Although she was only fifteen years old, Linglong was personally selected and trained by the Dongfang family. In the second room, she was just as smart as the old lady. She used to be a bit reserved. Now she saw the room

There were only autumn marks in the house, so she asked thoughtfully, "I heard that there is Amber beside the third young master now? Why are you the only one cleaning the house?"

Qiu Hen smiled hurriedly and said: "The old lady called her to ask questions."

As soon as she heard this, Linglong's face showed a bit of sarcasm. She looked around and found that there was really no outsider. Then she curled her lips and said: "My wife originally sent me to invite the third wife to come and talk. I didn't expect that the third lady came over to talk."

My wife is not here. Alas, my wife was in a good mood when she woke up this morning, but something happened that made her so sick that she didn't even eat breakfast, and she is still leaning on the couch."

"Who is so bold as to make the second wife unhappy?"

"You're not my eldest young master yet? Well, in fact, the eldest young master was just confused for a moment, and ended up getting along with Zixia... The new ones were all coquettish and coquettish. They were no more knowledgeable and honest than those of us who were born in the family.

For example, the eldest young master originally selected the most useful Luoying, the most gentle and reliable one, but in the end, an outsider took the lead. Let me tell you, you should pay more attention to that Amber, otherwise something will happen.

, even if you cry, it’s too late.”

When Qiu Hen first heard about the affair between men and women, two red clouds suddenly appeared on his face, but gradually he became more and more frightened. Although it is not uncommon for young masters to be proficient in human affairs at the age of fourteen or fifteen, Zhang Chao has just turned thirteen.

. Thinking of Amber's appearance and behavior as if she were everyone's daughter, and the fact that she was valued by the old lady, her face turned a little pale.

Linglong was already gnashing her teeth as she spoke. Seeing Qiuhen unconsciously wringing the handkerchief in her hands, she couldn't help but comfort her a few more words, and then said gloatingly: "However, the one who is most unhappy this time is the eldest lady. You

I don’t know, the eldest master is not going to Nanjing this time. News just came that he is going to Zhejiang to manage the seawall, so he probably won’t bring the eldest wife and the fourth young master with him. The old lady asked the two girls to follow them to serve. I heard

The eldest lady also broke the vase in the room..."

"cough!"

Linglong was about to continue talking, but when she heard the cough, she jumped up in shock. Turning her head stiffly, she realized that it was Zhang Yue who had opened the curtain and came in. Her heart suddenly became even more uneasy, and she hurriedly

She bowed half her body and saluted. Seeing that Zhang Yue's face was not very good-looking, she did not dare to stay here and talk more, so she said a few words and left in a hurry.

"Master..."

Seeing Qiu Hen mumbling and hesitating to speak, her cheeks flushed, showing a different kind of girlish emotion, Zhang Yue put away his rigid face and stretched out.

He sat on the bedside and patted the side with his hand.

"Qiuhen, come here and sit down."

At this time, Qiu Hen was filled with fear that Zhang Yue had really heard what Linglong had just said, and the others did not react for a moment, so she walked forward in a daze, but as soon as she sat down next to the bed, she immediately jumped

She stood up with panic on her face. But the next moment, she felt her hand being pulled hard by someone, so she sat down involuntarily.

"I heard what Linglong just said." He felt that the hand he was holding trembled violently. He couldn't help but shook his head, and his tone became more comforting, "I can't control other people's affairs.

, it’s not a big deal if you listen to what she said. Anyway, it’s her who is chewing her tongue, not you. But..."

He gently squeezed the soft hand and said word by word: "The eldest brother is the eldest brother, and I am me. No matter how good Amber is, it can't compare to the friendship you and I have had for so many years. Do you understand?"

?”

"But Amber is the British father...and the old lady..." Qiu Hen was surprised and happy at the same time. He couldn't even speak completely and was a little incoherent.

Good again…”

"What are you talking about!" Zhang Yue sounded angry and funny. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pinched Qiu Hen's plump cheek, "Don't tell me that the new guy is good-looking and capable, so I'll take you

Have you left it behind? If you are willing, I can also teach you how to read. You don’t have to worry about the British father-in-law and grandmother. I am still young, who will take care of these things for me? "

Qiu Hen only felt indescribable joy at this time, but she didn't notice that Zhang Yue's behavior just now seemed frivolous. She only knew that she was by her side when the young master was recuperating, and she was by her side when the young master was studying, and now she is by his side.

There was a new person, but she was still the special one. Her originally empty heart was filled to the brim in an instant, and her eyes became a little more radiant.

Although he made such a guarantee to Qiu Hen, Zhang Yue was thinking about the amber in his heart. It was a person sent by the British father, and she was often called over by Gu for questioning, but she never showed any arrogance.

, she speaks kindly to other girls, is respectful and polite to him and Zhang Zhuosun - even to the point of not approaching him - and is flawless in doing things. For such a measured and capable girl,

He really couldn't fault it.

In the main room, Mrs. Gu called not only Amber, but also Zixia, Yufen and Bishao who were assigned to the other three grandchildren. He looked at these four girls of thirteen or fourteen years old.

, her face gradually darkened.

She had different expectations for her son and grandson. It was a good thing for her son to branch out and have more heirs, but now her eldest grandson was only in his early thirties, and there was actually a girl hooking up with him. How could this be so big? So?

, looking at Zixia with her pink face and voluptuous figure, she frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy in her heart, and she felt more and more displeased.

After pondering for a moment, she said in a deep voice to Lingxi beside her: "When you go to see the second daughter-in-law later, just tell me that Zixia's monthly supply will be based on yours, and two more clothes will be made."

After hearing this, Lingxi agreed in her mouth, but couldn't help but glance at Zixia. Seeing that she was overjoyed and knelt down to thank her, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She was the first-class girl in the family.

As for the status of the old lady, and the concubine and the tongfang were in a higher class, it was obvious that this Zixia did not please the old lady. Then she glanced at the other three people and found that both Yufen and Bishao had expressions that could not be concealed.

Envy, only Amber stood there quietly.

Even if he comes from the British government, how can the Duke support a few girls? Those who come to serve the master are just that, a son and a half can be with him; but the four young masters are still young, and they are all

At an age when your mind is uncertain, when you marry a wife and take concubines in the future, how can you still remember the joy of your youth?
