It is said that Tang Ming and the others were led by Yang Liu and walked around Yongzhou City for more than an hour. They walked through many twists and turns and walked countless streets before they arrived at the door of Yang Mansion. They looked at the magnificent hangings on the door. When he saw the large plaque with the words "Yang Mansion" engraved on it, Tang Ming breathed a sigh of relief. He finally arrived.
"I'm talking to Miss Yang, your family lives so deep that you waste half a day on going out and so on. What else can you do in this day?" Tang Ming babbled after Yang Liu.
"Normally? I rarely go out. I have servants to buy whatever I want." Yang Liu looked at Tang Ming with disdain and said.
After walking into the Yang Mansion, Tang Ming realized why Yang Liu said that he rarely went out. The Qionglou courtyard was surrounded by streams and the trees were full of birds singing and flowers fragrant. The entire Yang Mansion was like a palace. Walking in the endless winding corridor, the servants who passed by greeted each other one by one. Tang Ming, who was used to the big world, was not too surprised by the large area and wealth of the Yang family, but Meng Xue and Ling Fei were not. It's different. The two children who grew up in a small ravine were amazed after seeing the exquisite buildings, elegant environment and various rockery springs with unique shapes. Their two pairs of curious big eyes kept looking at them. Covering every corner of Yang Mansion.
¡°This house is so big, it¡¯s even bigger than our Changgang Village.¡± Meng Xue admired as she looked at it.
"Yes, I have never lived in such a beautiful place in my life." Ling Fei also added.
Tang Ming also watched with a little interest along the way, thinking that this giant family in Yongzhou was really not built for his own sake. He was so rich that he could rival the country.
"Well, this is the courtyard arranged for you to live in. You can see if it's suitable." Yang Liu took the three of them to a relatively quiet courtyard and waved his hand.
Tang Ming took a closer look and found that the courtyard covered an area of ??about several acres, with rooms, living rooms, kitchens and bathrooms. The wide courtyard even had rockery ponds, small bridges and flowing water. It was simply a good place to live.
"Well, not bad, this place is comfortable to live in. Miss Yang really took the trouble." Tang Ming nodded appreciatively and said.
When Meng Xue and Ling Fei saw that they could live in such a good place, they nodded happily.
"Now that you are all satisfied, let's stay here for a while. I will ask Butler Luo to come over and arrange other things for you. I also want to go back to see my father, so you can just wait a moment. Just wait." After Yang Liu made the best arrangements, he said goodbye and left. After leaving the courtyard, he called for a servant to give some instructions and left.
Seeing Yang Liu leave, Tang Ming could only smile helplessly and said to Meng Xue and Ling Fei: "Let's live here for the time being. This place is not bad anyway. You go find a room that suits you first." , just live in whichever one is suitable."
"Brother Ming, you go pick a room first, and I'll live next door to you." Meng Xue held Tang Ming's hand and said.
At this time, a middle-aged man walked in at the door of the courtyard. He had a peaceful face and a slightly stooped back, but there was a hint of pride in his eyebrows.
"Young Master Tang, Miss Meng, Young Master Ling, and this old man are the housekeepers of the Yang Family's West Courtyard, Luo De. The young lady has already told me that I have brought three maids who wear clothes for daily life and various daily necessities. Please feel free to stay with Yang." Rest at home." Butler Rhodes saluted respectfully, and after some introductions, he shouted to the door: "Bring your things in."
Afterwards, several servants and maids came in carrying some bedding, clothing and various daily necessities. After greeting Tang Ming and the others one by one, they quickly arranged them in each room. Their work efficiency and movements were outstanding. The speed left Tang Ming and the others dumbfounded.
"Haha, it's really troublesome, Butler Luo. We can do these things ourselves, why bother using so many people." Tang Ming smiled and said as he gave Rhodes a hand.
"It's not troublesome. Since you are the distinguished guest of the eldest lady, you are the distinguished guest of our Yang family. How can I dare to neglect you?" Rhode said flattered: "The Yang Mansion is divided into four courtyards in the southeast, northwest and northwest. The three of them are living in it now. The West Courtyard is located, if you need any instructions, just come to me."
Tang Ming couldn't help but sigh once again that the Yang Mansion was so big that it was divided into several large courtyards to manage it. After Butler Rhodes supervised the people to finish their work, he left with some servants. At this time, there were three more people in the yard, the three maids left behind by Butler Rhodes. They said they wanted to stay and dress. Tang Ming's three people.
The three maids are all pretty and cute. Duan was the lolita type in Tang Ming's previous life. They are all around fifteen years old. At this time, the three maids are standing in front of Tang Ming. Platoon, lower your head and wait for Tang?¡¯s instructions.
Tang Ming looked at the three little lolita and said with a smile, "You can go back. We can just take care of ourselves. We don't need any service."
When the three little lolita heard that Tang Ming told them to leave, their faces turned pale with fright and they were at a loss. Tears kept rolling in their eyes. One of the lolita said with some choking, "Mr. Tang what are we doing? Is there anything inappropriate about the three of you that makes you insist on forcing us to leave?"
Looking at the three lolita in front of him, they started crying after saying a word. Tang Ming was also confused by them. He said that he was not used to being served by others and wanted them to go back and make other arrangements, but he didn't want to say a word himself. He made the three maids cry. Tang Ming hurriedly asked: "Wait a minute don't cry yet. What's going on? Why are you crying?"
"The three of us have just entered the Yang Mansion. Butler Luo has arranged for us to serve the three of us. This is our job. If the three of us don't let us serve, it means they dislike us. We will definitely be kicked out of the Yang Mansion when we go back. "One of the maids said as she wiped her tears.
Meng Xue and Ling Fei on the other side also looked at each other. They didn't understand why they cared so much about staying here, and they didn't understand why they said they were being kicked out of the Yang Mansion.
When Tang Ming heard what the maid said, he realized that it turned out that these three little girls had just been admitted to the Yang Mansion. In this world, if there are poor families outside who cannot cook, it is normal for them to sell their children to rich families as servants to earn some subsidies. Thinking of this, Tang Ming could only nod helplessly.
"Okay, okay, then you all will stay," Tang Ming hurriedly agreed and asked, "What are your names?"
The three little lolita looked at each other and shook their heads. One of them said: "We are all newcomers who have just come in. We haven't decided on a name yet. Why don't you give us a name, Mr. Tang?"
"That's it." Tang Ming touched his chin and thought for a while, then looked at the three cute little lolita, all of them were as beautiful as flowers, so he pointed at them one by one and said, "You just call Xiao Tao, your name is Xiao Hua, and your name is Xiao Xiang, then you can live with us from today on, okay, don¡¯t cry."
Xiao Tao, Xiao Hua and Xiao Xiang all laughed happily when they heard that Tang Ming was willing to take them in and gave them such nice names. Although there were tears hanging from the corners of their eyes, Tang Ming knew that they were really happy. .
"Xiao Tao will serve Mr. Tang from now on." Xiao Tao said with a bow to Tang Mingfu.
"Xiaohua will serve Miss Meng from now on." Xiaohua followed.
"Xiaoxiang serves Mr. Ling." Xiaoxiang also said.
When Meng Xue heard this, she hurried to Xiaohua's side, put her arms around her shoulders and said, "Don't miss me, please just call me sister from now on. I will also call you sister Xiaohua, we will be sisters from now on!"
"Thishow can this be done?" Xiaohua hurriedly shook her little head and said, "We are servants, we can't be so ignorant of the rules."
"Here we are! There are no rules but there are rules. If you don't agree, then I would rather take care of myself." Meng Xue deliberately raised her chin and said.
"This" The three little girls immediately ran into trouble.
"Okay, let's just say this. From now on, we will all be brothers and sisters. Don't impose so many rules in this yard, otherwise I will also fall out." Tang Ming said in an angry tone.
Meng Xue and Ling Fei standing aside also nodded, indicating that they had agreed to the rules set by Tang Ming.
The three little lolita looked at each other again and agreed with a smile.
As a result, the small courtyard where Tang Ming lived became lively. After the six people worked together for a while, they finally arranged the entire courtyard into a satisfactory small nest.
After finishing these things, it was already evening, and the sky was gradually getting dark. Xiaotao was busy cooking in the kitchen, while Xiaohua and Xiaoxiang went to the miscellaneous room of the house to get some supplies.
"Is Mr. Tang here?" At this time, a servant walked in from outside the yard and came to look for Tang Ming.
"I'm here, what do you want from me?" Tang Ming walked out of the house and looked at the servant and asked.
"Oh, it's like this. The master knew that the eldest lady came back with her friends today, so he held a banquet in the atrium to entertain you. Now that the banquet is almost ready, everyone is invited to move to the atrium." The servant saluted respectfully. said.
"This, we have already prepared food here." Tang Ming said a little embarrassedly. In fact, he didn't really want to go there. He originally planned to stay here, but he didn't. It was necessary to disturb the host's house, but now the owner of the house came to treat him.
Tang Ming looked at Meng Xue and Ling Fei behind him, and saw that the two guys were shaking their heads like rattles. Tang Ming secretly scolded the two of them for being useless, but now that they have arrived at his house, the head of the house has A banquet had been prepared for them, so it would be shameful not to go, so he helplessly said to the servant: "Okay, I'll make arrangements and go over. You can go back first."
"I'm afraid that Young Master Tang is not familiar with the roads of Yang Mansion, so you'd better wait outside the door. If Young Master Tang has made arrangements, I can take you there." After the servant finished speaking respectfully, he exited the courtyard. outside the door.
Tang Ming turned around and looked at Meng Xue and Ling Fei, asking their opinions with his eyes.
"I'm not going. I'm still used to eating by myself. If you want to go, you can go by yourself." Meng Xue ran back to the room without saying a word. It seems that this girl still has a certain fear of banquets for wealthy families. Girls are thin-skinned. , for fear that something embarrassing would happen if he went there.
"Master, I'm not used to eating with big shots," Ling Fei said with a smile, "Well you'd better do it yourself."
Tang Ming rolled his eyes helplessly, thinking that these two guys had seen too little of the world, so he could only shake his head, turned around and walked out of the yard.
