Ma walked into the yard with her dress, stepped on the big centipede and smiled at the little maid, "Stop looking at Jin'er, come and sweep it away quickly."

"I'm afraid of it." Jin'er pinched her ears with both hands and stamped her feet.

The little eunuch with a black hat behind him ran over, picked up a big centipede with a wooden stick, and was still alive, with a fishy smell.

Zhu Biao stood under the wooden corridor and looked at Ma calmly. The first thing he saw was her big feet stepping on the centipede.

I saw her feet yesterday but didn't look at them carefully.

Seeing Zhu Biao being stunned, Ma thought of the wound on his head and waved: "What are you doing when Biao'er is standing there? Come and let your mother see."

Zhu Biao stepped forward and lowered his head to let Ma check his wound.

He had seen beautiful teachers in various subjects in his previous life. In his previous life, Chen Yuanyuan was also his admirer, even including the then emperor's sister-in-law, Empress Zhang.

However, when I saw Ma's family yesterday, he was simple and intelligent, well-educated, but not spoiled, which made Zhu Biao admire him more.

"Mom, my son's injury has healed." Zhu Biao naturally called Ma.

In my memory, the original owner called Ma's mother like this. Because Lao Zhu is still the King of Wu, the eunuchs and the little maids also only called Ma's mother.

After seeing that there was no big problem with the wound, Ma touched Zhu Biao's head with confidence: "Your father has been busy with capital these days. Don't let him worry about distracting him, your child."

"Mom, my son knows."

"It's really your father's son. I always promise to do it well, but I won't listen to it then."

Seeing that Zhu Biao agreed to be well-behaved, Ma didn't say anything, just told him not to play with his brothers during this period, so as not to be injured.

Then he took him to his yard, which was specially designed to grow vegetables and cook, which was cool and suitable.

Sometimes they would take their wife and children to weave cloth and sew clothes and make shoes together in this yard.

...

Bluestone road, white walls and black tiles, and streams flowed under the bridge. Ma's residence was in the large courtyard on the north side. A few vegetable fields were opened in front of the ear room and a few earthen pots were built.

Zhu Biao followed into the yard. This was the original Wu Wang Mansion. It was simple and simple, not luxurious at all. There were still several women busy sewing clothes in the yard there.

Ma asked someone to pour the herbal tea on the table into a coarse porcelain bowl and give it to Zhu Biao: "Try the tea cooked by my mother and put it on the fire."

Zhu Biao picked up the coarse porcelain bowl, took a few sips and found it tasted pretty good, so he poured the bowl again.

"Drink slowly."

Ma picked up the rolling pin and walked into the room. Her two maids, Jin'er and Yu'er, also went to the backyard to help.

When Zhu Biao saw her kneading dough, she knew that she either rolled noodles or baked big cakes. When she made Chongzhen herself, she had read the most real records of this period.

"Criminal Master."

A crisp sound of brocade came from behind.

Zhu Biao came to his senses and remembered that he was calling himself, so he turned around and looked down at the maid Jin'er.

Jin'er and Yu'er are both maids around Ma. Jin'er is weird and Yu'er is as gentle as water. Their personalities are the opposite.

"What's the matter?" Zhu Biao turned around with his hands in his arms.

Jin'er was stunned for a momentum, feeling that Zhu Biao's momentum was like a saint, and then came over to shake his sleeves: "Criminal Master, please help us try the hat."

Try the hat? Could it be that the hat Ma brought with them the women to the throne ceremony?

The Ma family brought their own military wife, daughter and mother to make hats for civil and military officials, and tried to do a lot of styles alone.

He nodded, and Jin'er took him to the yard behind the vegetable field.

The yard is very large, with several large tables placed there, and there are a few little dolls running around next to it, with several black hats placed on the table.

The woman working next to him saw Zhu Biao coming, moved a chair for him, poured another cup of tea, and then continued to sew the hat in her hand.

"Which hat?"

When Yu'er heard Zhu Biao's question, she respectfully brought four hats over and smiled lightly: "Go back to the prince, these..."

"These are Han Guan, Tang Guan, and Song Guan, all used by the Empress to compare them. This hat is a newly made gauze hat." Jin'er grabbed the hair on her chest and circled it, snatching the white.

Zhu Biao looked at it and joked: "You can help you try the size of these hats."

Yu'er shook her head, her beautiful eyes were filled with water: "How can this be done? This is a man's hat, which we can't wear."

"Isn't he a man?" Zhu Biao pointed at the little eunuch next to him and looked at Yu'er and Jin'er.

The two of them glanced at the little eunuch, shook their heads, and Jin'er frowned: "He is not a man."

The little eunuch next to him smiled.

Zhu Biao didn't say anything. Thinking about the previous life, those difficult civil servants still relied on the eunuchs under his command to check and balance.

But now it is the early Ming Dynasty, so I don’t have much worry. They don’t have a salary, and they have to fend for themselves when they are old. In order not to starve to death, they also want to catch a backer and take some adopted sons.

As long as you give them some benefits, it is a good thing to control them properly.

...

Zhu Biao helped try the hat. Ma walked over and asked with a smile: "Do you feel comfortable? I just look at the new black yarn that is breathable and cool, and comfortable to wear."

"Then let me listen to my mother."

"Okay, it's appropriate for all officials to bring black yarn when they go to court."

All things about hats and clothes are women. He, a big man, has no aesthetic taste, so he can only try it out.

However, Jin'er put the hat on Yu'er's head naughtyly and imitated her name: "I've seen an adult."

Ma, who was next to him, took off his hat from Yu'er's head and put it aside, shouting to the women: "Sisters, those men are fighting bloody and fighting hard, so we will let them eat, dress, wear it, and provide them with logistics."

"Yes, Empress."

Ma looked at the clothes made by the women again: "It's enough to be comfortable. There is no need to do it according to the previous clothes. The robe is bigger and the butt is bigger and it's not good to look tight."

When night fell, Lao Zhu did not come back for dinner. Ma prepared a few big cakes and left them in the pot.

Standing in the yard to enjoy the cool air, Yu'er's little face appeared in front of Zhu Biao at the right time.

"Criminal, it's time to eat."

I didn't feel anything just now. When Yu'er put the noodles Ma made in front of him, Zhu Biao felt hungry.

Ma sat behind Zhu Biao, Yu'er, Jin'er and the little eunuch stood behind him.

The hand-rolled noodles are so powerful that Zhu Biao tasted a few bites and found that the taste was good. It would be better if he had some chili peppers.

Seeing that he had finished using the food, Ma stood up and cleaned up the dishes: "The maids in your yard are too young and ignorant. If they get hurt more seriously this time, your father won't eat me."

"It's okay, mom." Zhu Biao smiled.

"Jin'er, Yu'er, Sanbao, come here." Ma waved and asked them to come over.

"Biao'er, the three of them, you can choose one of them to take care of your daily life."

Ma was very satisfied when he saw Yu'er and the other two. Jin'er was a little more lively, but Yu'er was gentle, and it was appropriate to take care of her daily life, but she was a little weaker.

Zhu Biao and Ma looked at the three of them, but they didn't know who to choose for a while, and they all had their own characteristics.

After a long time, Ma pointed at the three of them and nodded to Zhu Biao: "Let's go together, the two girls in your yard follow me so as not to get hurt."

Although I think it's all very good, I definitely don't want everything, Zhu Biao thought.

Zhu Biao nodded and said, "Listen to my mother's arrangement."

Jin'er and Yu'er blushed and looked at Zhu Biao, and the little eunuch Sanbao was also very happy.

On the way back, lights were lit in the houses in the mansion.
