The bed in Shoufu's house is much softer than the wooden bed on Qingcheng Mountain.

Although Jiang Yuanbai is a scholar, he is also the first auxiliary in the current Dynasty. Some people become officials for the common people in the world, and some people become officials for ambition. Jiang Yuanbai realized his ambition and also enjoyed life.

When tong'er came to serve Jiang Li in the early morning, her smile was much brighter than before. She chirped about how soft and comfortable the bed was last night, and how spacious and bright the room was.

Yun Shuang and Xiang Qiao stood aside to serve Jiang Li. Yun Shuang was unwilling to do this at all. Xiang Qiao pretended to wipe the table and talked with Jiang Li, but he didn't stick to the hard work at all.

In the whole Fangfei garden, in addition to tong'er, there are only Yun Shuang and Xiangqiao, two servant girls. Yun Shuang and Xiangqiao won't do heavy work, so tong'er handles everything inside and outside. Ji shuran intentionally or unintentionally didn't give Jiang Li a rough maid, that is, bullying Jiang Li didn't know the current rules, that is, Jiang Li knew, gave Jiang Li some unhappiness, and then gave Jiang Yuanbai eyedrops later, saying that Jiang Li had a bad temper, which was very natural.

However, Jiang Li didn't care at all. When Yun Shuang went outside, she pulled the corner of La Xiangqiao's clothes and said, "there's something I want to bother sister Xiangqiao."

Xiang Qiao was stunned and said with a smile, "if the second young lady has anything to do, just tell the maid."

"I'm afraid I don't have enough hands in my yard today. My mother didn't arrange rough servant girls for me. Elder sister Yun and you serve me personally, and tong'er can't be busy alone. Elder sister Xiangqiao has been in the house for many years, and should be very familiar with the woman who buys and sells servant girls. Please ask elder sister Xiangqiao to arrange it for me, and I'll pick some people to sweep."

Xiangqiao frowned after hearing this: "second lady, the hands of the girls in the yard must be approved by the madam."

"My mother loved me, but she forgot to arrange people with me. It would only be that she was so busy with affairs on weekdays that she forgot my side. How can I bother her again? It's just a few servant girls. I want to choose it myself, and sister Xiangqiao will arrange it." She casually picked up a gold bracelet from a box on one side, put it on each other's hand, and said with a smile, "is it OK?"

Is that all right?

The bright gold bracelet is set on Xiang Qiao's hand. Different from the heavy red gold bracelet in her hand, this one is slender and exquisite, and looks not as thick as the one in her hand. But Xiang Qiao knows that such workmanship and lines are more valuable than the one in her hand.

"Of course!" Xiang Qiao nodded endlessly, her eyes glued to the bracelet, and she couldn't get rid of it. She has been with Ji shuran for many years, and Ji shuran is not as generous as the second miss from Shanye. Xiangqiao couldn't help but wonder, didn't the second young lady know how much silver these jewelry were worth, so she could give it to her so easily?

Without waiting for her to think more, Jiang Li laughed and said, "now please sister Xiangqiao."

Xiang Qiao got the gold bracelet. She was both nervous and excited. She immediately said, "the maid must do this for the second young lady. The second young lady will wait." As he spoke, he withdrew from the house.

After Xiang Qiao left, tong'er stood aside. Jiang Li saw her like she was about to stop talking and said, "just say what you have."

"Girl, I don't understand," tong'er said, "Why are you so kind to Xiangqiao? You know she was sent by Ji Shi... Maybe you want to buy her with these money?"

"Bribe?" Jiang Li shook her head: "this person has an evil mind, two sides, is used to steering the wheel, and is greedy for money and profits. Even if such a person is bribed, it is inevitable that he will defecte. I dare not bribe."

"In that case, why do you give her these jewelry? You know, even if she says to help you choose a servant girl now, I'm sure she can't tell Ji Shi in private. At that time, the people who sent them were also selected by Ji Shi."

"I'm looking for a job for her. I'm looking for a job to give her something."

"I don't understand," tong'er puzzled, "girl, we don't have too much silver in our hands to use."

Jiang Li was almost amused by her servant girl. She said, "look, I gave her jewelry instead of silver. Do you know why?"

"Why?" Tong er's eyes widened.

"Of course, it's for people to see." Jiang Li said with a smile, "go to the army to attack the plot, and divide it. Tong Er, sometimes others give you beautiful gems and precious jewelry. If you don't need to pay the same price, you have to be on guard, which may cost you more."

Tong'er looked at Jiang Li stunned. She still didn't understand what Jiang Li said, but she faintly felt something. After thinking for a while, she shook her head. Jiang Li is much smarter than her. Jiang Li must be able to see what she can see. Jiang Li's treatment of Xiangqiao must also be her own reason. Just follow her.

"Let's go out for a walk." Jiang Li said, "now that you're home, you should always be familiar with your mansion."

"Good!" Tong'er was very happy, "slave and maid are with you."

Jiang Li changed her clothes, but the newly made clothes haven't been delivered yet. Ji shuran's stepmother is not easy to make, but it's too obvious, so she asked someone to send some ready-made clothes of the same size as Jiang Li. These ready-made clothes look valuable, but compared with Jiang Youyao's clothes, the workmanship is much rougher, and the temperament of Jiang Li itself is even different.

Although tong'er liked good materials, she also felt that these red and green clothes on Jiang Li were not as good-looking as plain ones. After thinking for a long time, she chose a small green skirt for Jiang Li to wear.

At first glance, this dress looks like a style for servant girls. It is verdant and easy to wear. However, Jiang Li's skin is white and thin, and her upper body is actually good. It makes the whole person water tender and has a different taste.

Tong'er and Jiang Li stayed in the temple for a long time. They combed their hair. Usually, they just combed it for the simplest and convenient work. When they returned to Jiang's house, they found that there were only a few kinds of hair they could comb. In the Jiang mansion, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at by others if I comb those servant girls again.

Before tong'er could figure out how to comb her hair, she saw Jiang Li facing the bronze mirror, stretching out her hand to hold her long black hair, turning her hands dexterously for a few times, and then she combed a black bun.

Tong'er stared in surprise and said, "girl, how could you..."

"I learned it before." Jiang Li answered simply. When she was xuefangfei, she just married shenyurong. In order to please her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, she learned how to comb her hair. Thinking of their daughters' love and combing their hair with their own hands, they will always be close. Later, her friendship with the Shen family was completely broken, but the skill of combing her hair remained.

"Girl can do anything. It's really awesome." Tong'er thought and wondered, "but how can a girl deliberately learn to comb her hair? This is not what maids do..."

Unfortunately, before getting the answer, Jiang Li had got up and left the door, and tong'er put the problem behind.

Jiang's house is very big. Tong'er was a servant girl in the courtyard at first. Later, after Jiang Li injured Ji shuran for miscarriage, all servants in Jiang Li's yard fought and sold. To send Jiang Li to the front of Qingcheng Mountain, old lady Jiang casually pointed to a small servant girl from the yard and followed, which was tong'er.

Because she was too young to leave, tong'er was also unfamiliar with the current situation in Jiang's house.

Just out of Fangfei garden, he didn't walk a few steps. He heard the voice of someone in front of him. Jiang Li stopped and looked up. He saw several people standing in the booth not far away chatting.

Those people also saw Jiang Li, and their voices stopped. The person in the middle was dressed in a pink gold silk soft yarn skirt, with a beautiful appearance, especially charming.

It's Jiang Youyao, the third miss of Jiang family.
