In stories about "true and false young misses," others usually transmigrate into noble daughters who were lost outside. With one transmigration, they step on cannon fodder, become the cente...
This master and servant, the wife is sweet and generous, and the maid is also pretty and charming.
And because she was lost, she specifically asked the young lady if she wanted help. A lady who could teach such a maid is most likely kind-hearted.
Su Qingluan and Yaoguang looked at each other and decided to hitchhike.
After getting on the carriage, Su Qingluan was even more certain of her opinion. Madam Yan had pure eyes, and she looked at her and Qingluan with only curiosity. But even though they were dressed much more exquisitely and gorgeously than Su Qingluan and the others, they did not roll their eyes at Su Qingluan who was only wearing coarse cloth clothes, nor did they say anything rude, but just greeted each other in soft voices.
Su Qingluan naturally gave a superficial reason - to inquire about her husband's news.
However, Su Qingluan's explanation to the public was that they had been separated along the way, and after hearing that her husband had entered the city first, she followed him. Of course, Yaoguang's public identity was still "Su Qingluan's cousin", and she used the name "Yaoyao".
Upon hearing this, Madam Yan lamented that it must be difficult for two women to come to the capital. Su Qingluan was worried that the little girl was really too enthusiastic and would interfere with her help, so she quickly comforted her, "My husband's housekeeper has come with us. He is looking for a house that he likes."
"Oh? I wonder what kind of house Madam Su would like?" Madam Yan was interested. "Although my family doesn't have any prominent assets, we do have one or two unused properties."
In fact, this Lady Yan had good intentions. Seeing Su Qingluan and Yaoguang's simple attire, she felt that it would be difficult for them to find a house in the capital. It just so happened that she had an unused villa at home. Although it was a bit remote and only a small house with two entrances, it was still a place to stay.
Madam Yan was still thinking that their acquaintance was fate, and that the house had been vacant for a long time because of its poor location. At most, she could give some discount and let the two people in front of her and their housekeeper move in. With the nourishment of popularity, the house would probably not be too dilapidated.
Of course, Madam Yan was not being a good person for no reason. She really thought that the house was idle anyway, so this would allow one party to make a small profit, at least the house would not be empty, and the other party would have a place to stay. It was a win-win situation.
Although Su Qingluan didn't know what Madam Yan was thinking, she wouldn't mind if she knew - after all, everyone wants to rent out their vacant houses to make money, it's human nature.
However, she thought that if the three of them were to live separately, they would need at least three rooms, and the house could not be too simple, at least it had to have two or three courtyards, and the location could not be too remote, preferably within half an hour's walk from the most prosperous area.
When Su Qingluan first spoke, Madam Yan and her servant were still listening. Later, not only did the little girl couldn't help but burst out laughing, but even Madam Yan, who didn't want to laugh too much, gently covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief to hide it.
"Madam Su..." Madam Yan sighed, "If you are looking for a house with these conditions, the price will probably be quite high."
Su Qingluan understood that the other party was thinking about her. After all, with her "simple clothing" appearance, she still wanted to rent a good house in the capital.
This is a bit like a kind-hearted person seeing a migrant worker from Beijing wearing cheap clothes and wanting to rent a property within the third ring road of a first-tier city like Beijing, Shanghai or Guangzhou, close to the subway, with north-south access and with its own elevator. It is equally unreliable.
Of course, there are definitely houses that meet the conditions Su Qingluan mentioned, and there are quite a few of them - again, "the price is probably not low."
Although Su Qingluan had plenty of money, even in this capital city where everyone was either rich or noble, she wasn't too anxious to show off her wealth. So she just nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Madam Yan, for your advice. I'll go back and discuss it with the housekeeper."
Madam Yan thought for a moment and said, "If you really can't find a suitable place to rent, then go to this place and ask for Madam Yan Min." Then she gave an address. It turned out that Madam Yan's name was Yan Min.
Su Qingluan recited it silently three times and wrote it down secretly, but she always felt that this address seemed to have been seen somewhere and it sounded familiar.
This sense of déjà vu flashed by and was not caught by Su Qingluan.
Since the other party had announced his name, Su Qingluan naturally had to reciprocate by reporting her own name.
After hearing Su Qingluan's name, Yan Min exclaimed, "What a great name!"
"But it doesn't quite match Madam Su!" Xia Ying joked.
Actually, Su Qingluan came to "Su Ji" after grabbing a bite to eat in the city. She got lost for a long time, so she looked a little embarrassed now. Although Su Qingluan and Yaoguang didn't care much about this, their images did not quite match the names "Qingluan" and "Yaoguang" for the time being.
Moreover, Su Qingluan could also feel that Xia Ying was really too young and didn't control her words, so she blurted out such a sentence, which did not mean much malice.
However, she understood it on the one hand, but it was another matter that this sentence should not be said out loud.
As expected, before she finished speaking, not only did Yan Min, who was originally smiling, frown darken, but even Xia Ying herself realized that this sentence was inappropriate even if it was taken as a joke.
"Xia Ying!" Yan Min, contrary to his previous friendly attitude, called the maid in a deep voice.
The little girl knew at a glance that her mistress was truly furious. The slowly moving carriage was still shaking slightly, but the little girl knelt firmly on her knees: "Madam Su, please calm down. Madam, please calm down. I was wrong to speak without restraint!"
Yan Min also looked at Su Qingluan with great apology: "I'm really sorry, Yan Min's family education was not strict, and made Madam Su and your cousin laugh at you." Then she turned to Xia Ying, "You go out first and follow the servant outside. I'll come back and explain it to you later!"
Whether it is a maid or a boy, it is a great honor and reward for a servant to be able to ride in a carriage with the master. Such servants are generally very much loved by their masters.
The ordinary servants either walked beside the caravan or sat on the shaft, driving the carriage and waving the whip.
Being driven off the carriage was a great punishment for a favored maid - because compared to physical pain, the feeling of being scolded by the master in public was more psychologically distressing.
However, Su Qingluan realized at this time that she could not interrupt - just like when she saw other people disciplining their children, even if she was the "victim", it would not be convenient for her to interrupt in front of the children.
But when Xia Ying tearfully apologized and stepped off the carriage, Su Qingluan still whispered to Yan Min, "I don't think Xia Ying meant any harm. It was just an unintentional mistake. Madam Yan, please don't get too angry. Anger is harmful to your health."
Regardless of whether the other party really wanted to deal with this girl, or just pretend to be in front of her as a "strategic punishment", Su Qingluan had no intention of making things difficult for a half-grown child who was even younger than herself.
"Madam Su is kind, but our family has its own rules. Even if Madam Su doesn't care about it this time, if we meet someone difficult next time, our whole family will be implicated by this girl." Yan Min's emotions had calmed down, but his face was still gloomy.
It is obvious that Xia Ying is really going to be held accountable.
