”When the Chuang Tzu bought it, it was under your name. As soon as the house deed was signed, they would hand it over to you. Time is too tight. I'll leave first, and you'll clean it up slowly.”
Gong liangche finished, got on his horse and left with several guards. He rolled up a cloud of dust on the road. After the dust had dispersed, they had disappeared for a long time.
The onlooker took out a stack of neat house deed documents from his arms and sent them to Xia Li.
”Madam, this is the house deed, land deed of the whole Chuang Tzu, and the deed of sale of hundreds of people in Chuang Tzu. Please keep it carefully.”
Onlookers beckon. Two old women are holding a pile of sales contracts in their hands. On each contract are several bright red fingerprints, and the paper is shaking with the wind.
Xia Li took one hundred sales contracts and took them in her arms. Then she took the house contract and the land contract and looked at them carefully. It was true that only her name was written on them.
The onlooker nodded beside her.
”Madam, these old women are in charge of house and yard sweeping, goods purchasing, and personnel trading in the garden. They are all old people in the garden. Nothing is clearer than them. If you feel you can use them, the old slave will arrange them to go back to work.”
”Is it in your hands to manage the money and account books in this garden?”
Asked Xia Li in a cold voice.
”Yes, I've sorted out the account books of the yard for several years and put them in my study. You can check them whenever you are free.”
”Madam, this garden is a courtyard with three entrances. Each entrance has its own garden, rockery and Lake Pavilion. The scenery of each courtyard is also different. You can always change the courtyard to live in to relieve your boredom.”
The onlooker said while leading the way, and naturally introduced Xia Li and others into the garden.
The excitement in the garden made the girl busy sorting out the flowers and sweeping the courtyard. The able boy ran all the way to spread the news that the new owner had come to the garden.
All the people stopped their work and gathered in front of the gate of Er Jin's courtyard. Several women had trotted all the way to count the number of people and ordered them to kneel on the ground to say hello to Xia Li.
”Maidservant and others meet the new master!”
When did Xia Li see so many people kneeling to her? She was in the same place for a moment. Looking around, Xia Qing followed her silently. She was always concerned about Xia Li's personal safety. She was also curious about the kneeling in front of her and wanted to learn. She was stopped by Xia Li.
”I'll come here on the first day today. You don't have to be polite. I won't disturb your life.”
Xia Li's tone was slow, and then she turned and walked out.
They were stunned again, and were full of curiosity about the new hostess.
”Get up first and go back to work.” The housekeeper winked at the woman standing beside him. The woman immediately understood and urged them to step down.
”Madam, you've been working hard these days. You must be exhausted. Your room is in the upper room of the north courtyard. The hand stove and earthworm are all ready for you. The room is warm enough for you to have a good sleep.”
”Take Mrs. Ben with you.”
Xia Li is also tired, only feel to see people have become blurred, she looked at the woman in front of her with the key to open the door, a person straight forward fell down.
”Sister!”
”Madame!”
Xia Qing and the bystanders around her, several women holding Xia Li came to the floor dragon in the room and helped her lie down. The stove was put in her hand, and the quilt covered her whole body. Some women helped her take off her boots, and some people gave her some soothing incense.
The room immediately fragrant pleasant, hypnotic aroma in the air, summer quinoa completely into the dream, her head dizzy, fell into deep sleep.
Xia Qing sensible guard in the side, ”you all go out, I come to guard sister, those books also move in, wait for sister wake up to have a look.”
”Yes, young master!”
They all look at Xia Qing's young age and want to make trouble for him. However, with his meticulous expression, they still hold a knife in their hand and turn around by their sleeves. They are so surprised that they all retreat quietly.
……
When Gong liangche arrived at the palace, the princess, Wang Leyi, got the news and took her maid to the courtyard where he lived alone, shouting at the door of the study.
”Mr. Wang, you have finally appeared.”
Wang Leyi's figure is shaking outside the door. Through the crack of the door, she can even see the red gauze skirt she specially changed outside, shining under the care of the winter sun.
”I'm tired, so I'll leave first.”
Gong liangche is really tired. Without waiting for Wang Leyi to respond, the concealed weapon in his hand is nailed directly to the door, flashing silver light, which makes Wang Leyi step back. Only in this way can he avoid falling on the ground.”He's lying in ambush
Wang Leyi had a cold sweat on her back this time. She didn't dare to neglect her. She was so surprised that she even retreated from her room, and everyone left with her.
