Chapter 225 Measure the Recruitment of Pearl
"No! Yes! Yes!" Lu Mengji categorically denied it.
"Ha ha, girl, today I will tell you clearly that you have to agree to this matter, and you have to agree if you don't agree." After saying that, Huo Shuangcheng looked around the room and said, "If you think this yard is simple, I'll change a bigger yard for you when Kanger comes back."
Huo Shuangcheng's tone can't be refuted by Lu Mengji. Lu Mengji looked at Huo Shuangcheng speechlessly. It was also him. The general was used to saying the same thing on the battlefield. Even if he returned home, he still retained the military style. Lu Mengzhen knew that his arms could not twist his thighs, so he simply stopped resisting. For the concubine, it may be a good thing for Lu Mengzhu's current situation.
"Thank you, General, for your good intentions. Can you give me two more days? Two days later, I will definitely give the general a satisfactory answer." Lu Mengjian is in her current situation. With Huo Shuangcheng's nature, it is impossible for her to escape from Huo's house. If she refuses to agree to the appointment he has done for Lin Daimo, she doesn't know what he will do when he is ashamed and angry. In this way, it's better to take this matter first and then postpone the army. Anyway, there is still nearly a month before Lin Daimo comes back.
For such a long time, it is enough for Lu Mengji to change the current situation.
Huo Shuangcheng is very satisfied with Lu Mengji's compromise. In this way, under his arrangement, Kang'er not only sat on the daughter of Captain Qin, but also accompanied by Lu Mengzhi, which can be said to enjoy the blessings of the people.
"I think this yard is also a little lonely. I didn't tell Director Hu before to ask him to give you a few maids. This old man, I think he is tired of staying in the house." Huo Shuangcheng has been very dissatisfied with Hu Libai since he saw Lu Mengji that day. What he had told him, but he was so careless. Where did the general manager put his words?
"General, you misunderstood. It's because I don't want too many servants. It's none of Mr. Hu's business. The main reason is that I'm afraid of quarrels and always feel troublesome when there are too many people, so thank you for the general's kindness." However, what Lu Mengjian is most worried about is the impact on her privacy after there are many people. Now, everyone, including Aunt Xue and Qin Luofu, wants to put eyeliner around her. If she really dares to introduce these people to her side, it is simply to lead wolves into the room and leave them with the same group of people to fight for wisdom and courage. No one will stay.
"That won't work. There is no shortage of servants in our general's mansion. When you become Kang's pillow, this yard is empty. Isn't it hitting our Huo's house in the face? No, in the afternoon, I will send General Hu to choose a few dignified maids for you. You can't be taken care of by your side." Huo Shuangcheng's words made these things a certainty. Lu Mengji said nothing and simply kept silent.
Huo Shuangcheng arranged everything and seemed to have seen the joy of Huo Jingkang's return and finally left with satisfaction.
"God, why is this old guy so stubborn!" Lu Mengzhen squatted down with her head in her arms. She really couldn't accept what Huo Shuangcheng said, especially as a concubine. This is simply a fruit-eating mistress!
But Lu Mengji wants to live a life of one wife and a white head together. The picture of this threesome in front of him is not in the blueprint of Lu Mengji's future planning at all!
"Miss San, are you all right?" As soon as Green Ring entered the door, he saw Lu Mengji squatting on the ground in pain and stepped forward quickly with worry. After a few days of getting along, Green Ring found that Lu Mengjian was not the spoiled and arrogant woman she had imagined at all. Instead, she was more like her sister, playing jokes together, and even took the initiative to teach her servants how to write and draw. Her behavior was no different from that of everyone else, but she was very different.
"I'm fine, but I feel panicked," Lu Mengji held the hand of the green ring, sat in the chair, took a few deep breaths, and then broke away from the "happy news" announced by Huo Shuangcheng.
"Master, is he forced to be a girl again..." Green Ring looked around in a low voice and cautiously. This was the first time she ventured to speak ill of Huo Shuangcheng in Huo's house. This inexplicable feeling made Green Ring feel strange. It seemed that she believed Lu Mengjie more than Huo Shuangcheng.
Lu Mengji nodded and shook his head, "Alas, how can it be satisfactory... General, probably out of his love for Master Kang."
The green ring seemed to understand and stood aside quietly with Lu Mengji.
"Maybe, General Manager Hu will bring a few people here in the afternoon. Sister Green Ring, please take a look at it for me. I'm not familiar with this house, and I was born in poverty. I haven't contacted anyone else before except Chuntao and Mingyan. In terms of people, my sister knows more than me, so I asked my sister to bother." Lu Mengjian whispered weakly and looked at her in surprise. She knew that she had taken the right step.
"Don't worry, Miss San, I will definitely choose the most desirable maid for you." Green Ring's words gave Lu Mengji another shot of strength.
"However, as long as it is the people sent by General Hu, we will stay first. Since the general wants to give me a favor, don't make it difficult for him to see people's hearts over time. Besides, with your golden eyes, those people can't be arrogant." Lu Mengji smiled. Since she is in trouble, there is no need to pursue peace as before. Instead, it gives people a feeling of being too easy to bully. From today on, she has no need or reason to leave herself out of the matter again.
Green ring focused his head, "Miss, why don't you and the master ask me to come here? I prefer to serve Miss San..." The quieter the green ring said, the smaller she should not be a seller, but Huo Shuangcheng left her. At the beginning, it was to inquire about Lu Mengjie's news, but now her heart is more and more landing. I thought about the dream.
"How can that work? The general usually relies on your sister to take care of it," Lu Mengjie smiled. Originally, her trust in the Green Ring gradually collapsed, and the Green Ring seemed to be a little snobbish...
In the afternoon, General Manager Hu carefully selected several maids to send them over. They all seemed to be loyal and capable, but few of them could enter Lu Mengjian's eyes.
Green Ring selected two people from several little maids to be responsible for the inner room. And sent the two of them to Lu Mengji to have a look.
Lu Mengji is very satisfied. The green ring's vision is really good. These two made a very good impression on Lu Mengji.
The woman with slightly dark skin is called Lotus. Her facial features are very correct and her face is very loyal, but a pair of black eyes have a special spirit. Compared with Lotus, Bai Ning, her face is much more exquisite, which is quite pleasing to the eyes, but the flow in those eyes The overflowing light made Lu Mengji a little afraid. However, since he was selected by the Green Ring, Lu Mengji still readily accepted it.
Lu Mengjian called them in front of them, looked at them carefully, and finally pointed to the lotus and said with satisfaction, "Your name, why don't you change your name to Qinglian? There is a poem that comes out of the mud without staining, washes the ripples but not demons. It's about the lotus. I hope you are the same as this lotus and have an impertain temperament."
Qinglian knelt down to thank him and got his name. Bai Ning was inevitably a little jealous of Qinglian's blue eyes as soon as she entered the door. She turned her head to look at Lu Mengzhen, and a trace of light flashed in her smart eyes.
"Bai Ning, your name is very good and just like that person. In the future, you and Qinglian will be responsible for my inner room, but remember that these flowers in the room must not be fooled with without authorization. A few of them are highly toxic. If you are accidentally stabbed, your life may be difficult." Lu Mengji deliberately scared the two women in front of him and looked at their expressions.
Qinglian was stunned for a moment, but Bai Ning knelt in place without response, as if the poisonous flowers and plants were not worth mentioning.
Lu Mengjian looked at their expressions playfully, and then saw several maids and maids and maids who had just arrived in the courtyard. Before they came, they were severely warned by Hu Libai, so they were all respectful to Lu Mengjian.
Among the few little men, the man known as the string song, had the most calm expression and the best appearance, while the rest of them were so scared that they lowered their heads and dared not look directly.
After rewarding each person with a small piece of silver, Lu Mengjian's heart seemed to be dripping blood. This is the hard money she earned by designing clothes. Now it is in the hands of others in an instant, and she inevitably hurts.
"Okay, you go out first, Green Ring. You can take them to the room they live in. Clean up the room today. If there is anything missing, just pick it up and go. You called Chuntao in, and I have something else to say to her. Lu Mengji finished smiling and nodded to the green ring.
Green Ring had always thought that she had become Lu Mengjie's confidant at this time, so when she saw Chuntao, her mouth was immediately full of sneers, but she greeted enthusiastically, "Sister Chuntao, Miss San, please come over."
Chuntao rolled her eyes and walked in directly. In a quarter of an hour, when she came out again, her eyes were shining with tears.
Green Ring took Qinglian Baining to clean up the subordinate's room, while Xiange quickly cleaned the room with several servants.
"Yo, Sister Chuntao, what's wrong with you?" Green Ring pointed to Qinglian and others to move the messy things of Chuntao aside, and the sticky bed edge was also washed away. At the beginning, it was disgusted by Chuntao, and Green Ring finally found a chance to revenge.
But Chuntao ignored it at all. She sat directly by the bed and sighed softly. After a while, she fell asleep in **.
"This sister slept so soundly," Bai Ning looked at Chuntao with a simple face and drooling, and Qinglian and others sat on the tidy bed and rested quietly.
Suddenly, Chuntao suddenly sat up from ** and walked straight out like a sleepwalker, regardless of everyone's surprised eyes.
