Chapter 7 Staying in Xiangcui Garden(1/2)

"Tell me, who is sitting in this carriage?"

"I guess she can't be the bride that the emperor gave General Zhenbei to marry!"

"I think it's possible, but look at the dowries on the two carriages at the back. They're a bit small."

"It seems that this girl must not be favored by her parents."

After a while, a group of people saw a girl wearing a bright red wedding dress and a hippie getting out of the first carriage.

"It seems that you guys guessed it right!"

"It's just that we didn't see the wedding procession from my parents' family."

The words of the people quickly reached Rong Jingru's ears, but she didn't pay attention to them because what those people said were all facts.

"She still wants to be favored by General Zhenbei. I think she is just dreaming!"

"Who is General Zhenbei? He is a master who is not close to women."

"It would be really nice if General Zhenbei was kicked out of the general's mansion."

Some women who were jealous of Rong Jingru kept saying sarcastic words on the side, which made Rong Jingru speechless. It seems that the heart of gossip has never stopped since ancient times.

At this time, a humble-looking boy came out of the Zhenbei General's Mansion and whispered a few words into the ear of the housekeeper, Uncle Quan.

"Madam, my general is currently in the military camp in front and cannot come out to greet him for the time being." Uncle Quan looked at Rong Jingru with some embarrassment.

The corners of Rong Jingru's mouth twitched. She didn't believe what Uncle Quan said and said straight to the point: "Uncle Quan, please take me in first."

Uncle Quan heard Rong Jingru's voice and didn't feel anything was wrong because the tone of voice was too calm.

When the people around heard the bride's silver bell-like and sweet voice, they just thought it sounded so good that they couldn't be bothered.

Everyone opened their eyes, curious to see what the bride looked like.

It's just that because Rong Jingru just lifted the hippie on top of the headdress and didn't take it off, everyone couldn't see it very clearly, but her beautiful face and clear and bright eyes were still attracted by everyone.

.

Rong Jingru thought to herself that this would be better, as they would not be in conflict with each other. And now that she had a system, she would be much more confident in living in this era.



"Madam, this is Xiangcui Garden. You can just live here from now on. As for the dowry on the carriage, it has been delivered to Xiangcui Garden." Uncle Quan said with a smile.

"Madam, this place was cleaned yesterday. If you need to add anything, just tell me then."

"Uncle Quan is too polite. I want to ask the group of people brought back later." Rong Jingru twitched the corner of her mouth, but she stated her request again.

"Madam, I'm sorry for you, old slave. You've been tired all the way, so you'd better rest first. It won't be too late to ask again tomorrow." Uncle Quan seemed to be thinking about her very much.

Since Uncle Quan has said so, Rong Jingru can't say much. After all, she has just arrived at Zhenbei General's Mansion and is not familiar with the surrounding environment.

This Zhenbei General's Mansion is incomparable to her previous Rong Mansion.

"Then I'll bother you, Uncle Quan." Rong Jingru smiled at Uncle Quan.

"No trouble, no trouble, this is what a slave should do."

"By the way, madam, the general is afraid that you will have no one to serve you, so he asked the old slave to send you some maids to serve you." Uncle Quan said, waving back.

In fact, Jun Linfeng didn't explain these at all, it was completely figured out by Uncle Quan himself.

After a while, four maids with different looks, wearing the same turquoise dress and a ponytail came forward, and they all bowed to Rong Jingru.

"Greetings, madam!"

Then Uncle Quan introduced Rong Jingru one by one, "This is Chunyue, she is mainly responsible for needlework; this is Xia Lian, her cooking skills are good, especially pastries; this is Qiu Mo,

She knows a little bit about medicine and is best at making medicinal meals, so you can let her nurse you back to health; this is Dongxue, who usually stays with her father and has developed a good skill in accounting."

These four maids are named after the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, which sounds much better than the original owner naming them emerald red.

After hearing Uncle Quan's introduction, Rong Jingru felt that Jun Linfeng was so considerate that the four maids sent to her basically covered all the basic necessities of life, including food, clothing, housing and transportation.

"Aunt Jiang is my nanny, Cuihong is my maid, and Miss Jin Wushuang is a very skilled martial artist. She will always be by my side and responsible for my safety. Chunyue, Xia Lian, Qiu Mo, and Dong Xue, you four

From now on, you can become a second-class maid by my side. I wonder if you are willing?" Rong Jingru thought about it and could only arrange it this way first.

"The slaves are willing. I just ask the madam not to dislike us for being clumsy in the future. The slaves are very happy to be able to take care of us in front of the madam. How can we ask for so much." Chunyue, Xia Lian, Qiu Mo, and Dong Xue were four.

The maids were very discerning and smiled, and they all kowtowed to Rong Jingru several times.

"Get up. As long as you do your best to serve me in the future, your benefits will naturally be spared. But if you dare to betray the Lord, don't blame me for not remembering the friendship between master and servant." Rong Jingru was relaxed.

Said slowly.

Uncle Quan saw all this in his eyes. He felt that the general's wife didn't seem to want to be an orphan, because the aura she had just now was indeed a bit like a matron of the house. She was still calm and didn't know who she was.

How did you practice it?

Rong Jingru had read a lot of novels and TV series about palace fights and house fights in her previous life. Although she didn't know how to do it, she still knew one thing, that is, she had to set up rules first, so as to give them a deterrent, so that they would be able to fight in the future.

Don't belittle yourself.

"Thank you Madam for your teaching!" The four maids were very happy. After all, their Zhenbei General's Mansion finally welcomed their mistress.

In such a big courtyard, it is indeed quite quiet just for the four masters and servants. Now that there are four more maids, I think it will be a lot more lively in the future.

"By the way, madam, there is only a lake between Tianzhu Garden where the general lives and Xiangcui Garden." Seeing that they already knew each other, Uncle Quan said something, saluted Rong Jingru, and turned around to take her with him.

People left Xiangcui Garden.

Rong Jingru nodded, indicating that she understood.

Rong Jingru walked on the road paved with bluestone slabs and felt that Xiangcui Garden was very quiet and the interior decoration was also very elegant.

In particular, purple orchids are planted everywhere in the yard, making the entire Xiangcui Garden more elegant, especially the light floral fragrance is refreshing.

Everything inside was spotless, and it looked like it had just been cleaned. Even the sheets and bedding had been replaced with bright red, folded neatly and placed on the bed, and they looked new at first glance.

But because it was a newlywed, bright red lanterns were hung everywhere in Xiangcui Garden, making the place full of joy.

Maybe because no one has ever lived in it, you can still smell the faint scent of sandalwood.



"Miss, this place is much better than our original courtyard in Rong Mansion." Cuihong couldn't help but sigh.

Rong Jingru thought about it in her mind and found that the living environment was indeed much better.

"Old slave, let's go to the big kitchen with Cuihong and have a look." Aunt Jiang found that it was already three quarters to noon.

Rong Jingru nodded.

"Wushuang, which wing are you going to stay in?"

"Jingru, let's go check out your wing first."

Rong Jingru and Jin Wushuang quickly arrived at the new house. The decoration here was full of beautiful meanings, but the only regret was that she had not seen General Zhenbei, who was rumored by the outside world.

Now that there was no one else in the room except Jin Wushuang, Rong Jingru directly asked her to take off the phoenix crown on her head.

"Jingru, what if the general comes back later?"

"Uncle Quan said before Wu Shuang that there was something going on in the military camp, so I'm afraid Jun Linfeng won't be back today."



"Have you seen the new lady?"

"I just took a look at it from a distance, and it looks so beautiful."

"Look at you drooling. I won't strangle you to death."

"No, no, no, madam."

"It's just that I heard that my identity is just that of the daughter of an ordinary merchant family. This means that I got lucky and met the Emperor's marriage to be able to climb up to their General Zhenbei."

"Who says otherwise!"

The women's faces were full of jealousy and contempt, while the men were all staring straight in the eye.

"It would be great if my daughter could get married."

"Sister-in-law Zeng, aren't you afraid of General Zhenbei?"

"But if my daughter gets married and she can enjoy hot and spicy food every day, and have endless silks and satins to wear, it is better than living a hard life with me."

"What you said is very practical."

All the people and servants were whispering aside, but Rong Jingru didn't know it in Xiangcui Garden now.

In fact, even if she knew, she wouldn't pay attention to it. After all, other people's mouths are open to her, and she couldn't care less about what they said, as long as it didn't touch her bottom line.



In the military camp.

"General, please stop dazzling, please?" Personal guard Bai Yicheng's eyes were dazzled.

Jun Linfeng put one hand behind his head, crossed his legs handsomely, and fell asleep comfortably and leisurely.

"Yicheng, if you feel dazzled, you can go for a walk outside." Jun Linfeng's thin lips parted lightly, his voice low and full of magnetism.
