Chapter 217 Upgrading the Gardener

Xiaohong was thoughtful, and probably understood, but she was confused: "But it doesn't like to eat the food you brought. If you feed it, it will spit it out."

The man with the sword eyebrows said: "The food that is pure in nature has no taste. It is normal if it doesn't like to eat. If it doesn't want to eat, let it starve. If it can't bear the hunger, it will naturally eat it. This little guy has just been weaned and has been raised well.

When it comes to eating habits, don't let it get used to it. After a few months, when its stomach and intestines have improved its ability to digest food, you can let it take the Evil Spirit Pill. By then, as it grows up, its spiritual intelligence will gradually open up.

, will become your young lady’s best companion.”

Evil spirit pill? Nanzhu's eyes flashed slightly, and his heart was secretly shocked. Oh dear, this little kid actually wants to take an evil spirit pill worth tens of millions of taels of silver?

Sometimes he really doesn't understand the thoughts of rich people. The value of an evil spirit pill is enough to train a Xuan-level monk. He would rather spend so much money on a pet than on a human being.

I really don’t know what I’m thinking about it.

He found that his life in this life was worse than that of a dog from a rich family.

Xiaohong picked up Xiaozizi and said, "Zilong, you are going to be hungry now. Who told you to be naughty?"

Feng Changdian couldn't help but ask, "This spiritual pet looks really like a dog."

The sword-browed man smiled lightly and said: "Manager Feng, this is not called a dog, it's called a 'Ziyun Jian'. It hasn't grown yet. When it grows up, it will be bigger than a dog. With one claw, it can easily burst the brains of a lion, tiger, and leopard."

Most ferocious beasts would have to move around when they see it."

Feng Changdian sighed, "I've never seen it before. When did the third lady raise this thing? You have to be careful when you grow up."

Xiao Hong said proudly: "It's a gift from the master of Qinglian Mountain to the young lady. Mr. Chu only brought it down the mountain three days ago."

When he heard that it was a gift from the head of Qinglian Mountain, Feng Changdian swallowed back his words that he thought it was dangerous to keep this thing, and said yes twice.

Nanzhu was tutting again in his heart, the head of Qinglian Mountain was a big sect leader, and he didn't know who this third lady was, and how she had such a great reputation.

At this time, Feng Changdian also realized that the fat man was still there, and immediately said in a humming voice: "You did a good job, go back first, I said there will be a big reward, and there will be a big reward, and you will not be short."

"Yes." Nanzhu withdrew with a flattering smile.

The sword-browed man and Xiao Hong didn't stay long, and left with the little guy.

As for Nanzhu, as soon as he walked out of the drying yard, he was surrounded by a group of envious servants.

"Hey, fat man, what did Manager Feng reward you?" asked a servant in Tsing Yi.

Nanzhu spread his hands, "I don't know, I said I would give it to them later. By the way, who is that maid? Why does it seem like even Manager Feng wants to give them face?"

The servant in Tsing Yi said, "That's Miss Third's personal maid, Xiao Hong."

"Who is the third young lady?" Nanzhu took the opportunity to ask.



As the sun set, outside the west side door of Wen Mansion, a small cargo ship was parked in the river alley. Mu Aotie and other servants got on the ship one after another to load food. When the two baskets were full, they carried them ashore and delivered them to the manor.

.

The grain is fine new grain, and the people at the bottom may not be able to afford it. However, in Wenfu, it is regularly replenished to the major kitchens in the house.

Although he could only follow the prescribed route under the watchful eyes of the nursing home, Mu Aotie still had the opportunity to enter the inner courtyard of the Wen Mansion.

Along the way, he was silently observing his surroundings, memorizing the route and terrain, and secretly guessing where the "Wenshu Pavilion" was...

Nanzhu also sneaked into the inner courtyard of Wen Mansion on the first day he entered the mansion, although the level of entry was relatively superficial.

He could only wander around the nursery area where he just entered the inner courtyard.

Under the sunset, a big fat man followed an old gardener to learn how to weed, how to prune flowers and trees, how to water flowers and trees, etc.

The flowers, plants and trees in the entire Wen Mansion are constantly taken care of by dedicated personnel. They must always be kept bright, lush, and always prosperous for the guests to see. This is the pomp of a big family.

Manager Feng kept his word, and the rewards came quickly. First, he was rewarded with one or two silver coins, and then he was rewarded with the job of being a gardener.

It was considered an easy job, and the key point was to learn some skills, and the monthly salary was fifty cents more.

This is what Guanshi Feng calls a heavy reward.

This is the reward Nanzhu received for taking the credit of his three brothers alone.

Nanzhu accepted it with a smile in front of his face, then turned around and sneered, murmuring endlessly, "Spiritual pets are very valuable, so I will reward you with one or two silver coins to help you find them. You really treat me as a country bumpkin who doesn't understand anything. If I had known this, I might as well have let Lao Shi

Now that the meat is ready, let’s try the taste of spiritual pets stewed in an iron pot.

After all, he doesn't like this kind of reward at all.

In fact, for other ordinary servants, this is indeed a great reward.

The sun is going down, and the servants who have finished their work have finished their work and gone to have a meal.

The three brothers and sisters met again in the dining hall. None of them were used to eating, so they had to force themselves to come over.

When it comes to cooking, people are eager to prepare more, and the three of them are not willing to let others prepare less.

Yu Qing gained experience. He had his own separate nest, which was easy to handle. After packing a bowl of food, he turned back and left. If anyone asked, he said he would take it back and eat it slowly.

After Nanzhu and Mu Aotie noticed it from the corner of their eyes, they also stood up and followed.

Along the way, they walked in tandem, carefully paying attention to their surroundings, and walked to the door of Yu Qing's courtyard. After making sure that no one saw them, they quickly got in.

In the courtyard, Yu Qing sat on a chair and waited. When he saw the two men looking at him in the dining hall, he knew they would come.

"Oh, I really can't eat this thing. It would be great if I could give this away. The beggars on the street would probably wake up laughing in their dreams."

Nanzhu muttered, walked up behind Yu Qing, and poured a large bowl of food directly into the pot that Yu Qing had washed before.

Mu Aotie followed suit and poured it into the pot.

Looking back, Yu Qing was stunned, stood up quickly and said, "What do you mean by giving me something you don't want to eat?"

"Oh, you can handle one copy, and you can handle two or three copies in the same way."

"I said, who is the leader?"

"Now we are all servants, we are all grasshoppers on the same rope. Is there any meaning in saying this? I have found out a lot of things here, do you want to know?" Nanzhu asked, and the man had already thrown down the rope beside the well.

He fetched water from a bucket with a rope, and then handed his bowl to Mu Aotie, who was already squatting down to wash the dishes, and asked them to wash them together.

When Yu Qing saw this, he asked: "What's going on?" His hands were not slow, and he quickly poured the food in the bowl into the iron pot, and then gave it to Mu Aotie to wash together.

Mu Aotie glanced at the two of them coldly, obviously asking, what do you think of me?

Nanzhu said hehely: "Lao Jiu, let me help you move the chair."

Then he ran into the warehouse with his body shaking, and quickly brought two chairs. There were a lot of these things in the warehouse here.

Yu Qing sat back first and asked again: "What's going on?"

Nanzhu sat down with his belly in his arms, leaned back on the chair, and took a breath, "I finally figured it out. If you can be a servant of the Wen family for a long time, you must either have children from the family in the mansion, or have signed a contract of betrayal. Others

There is almost no possibility left.

In other words, we only have three months at most. When the big festival here is over, if we still can't get what we want, we have to get out."

Yu Qing: "You don't need to say this, you can think of it even if you think about it. I don't believe that I can't enter the 'Wenshu Pavilion' in three months. By the way, what happened to the spiritual pet? You took my credit and ran away."

Well, what benefits have you gained?”

Mu Aotie, who stood up after washing the dishes, came over and sat down, "I heard that I was awarded a tael of silver and was promoted to be a gardener's apprentice. I got an extra fifty cents a month."

Nanzhu was a little embarrassed and changed the subject, "Fortunately, we arrived in time and prevented you from killing you, otherwise things would have been serious. That spiritual pet is the legendary 'Purple Cloud Jade', a gift from the head of Qinglian Mountain.

The gift for Miss Wen's third daughter was just delivered from the mountain a few days ago."

Yu Qing was surprised, "If the head of Qinglian Mountain can give a spiritual pet as a gift, who is this third lady?"

Nanzhu: "Wen Miao, the contemporary patriarch of the Wen family, had three sons and two daughters. They all had their own families. After the youngest son and his wife gave birth to a daughter, something happened and she was killed.

An orphan girl was born, named Wen Xin.

Wen Xin has no father or mother. She was brought up by the clan leader Wen Miao since she was a child. Perhaps she is a relative from another generation. Wen Xin loves her very much, so her status in the Wen family is unusual. Wen Xin also has two granddaughters, but they are both

She got married, so everyone called Wen Xin the third lady.

I heard that this third young lady is beautiful and kind-hearted, well-informed and courteous, and can play music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She is a talented woman who has read poetry and books. She is the apple of Wen Kuang’s eye. I guess the headmaster of Qinglian Mountain gave her a gift.

Spiritual pets are also Chongwen Kuan’s preference.”

Hearing what he said, Yu Qing almost cried. Why did he feel like he was the other half of his dream? He swallowed and said, "Is Wen Xin really as good as you said?"

Nanzhu: "I've never met him, so how would I know? I heard he's a nice guy, but there's one thing bad about him. He said he's already engaged, which is a pity." He sighed and shook his head.

Yu Qing was happy, "They are engaged, what are you regretting? You don't even look at how old you are. Who are you to say, who can be worthy of such a good girl from such a good family background?"

Nanzhu: "I can't remember clearly. It is said that Wen Qiang personally found a match for his granddaughter. He said he was the grandson of some literary giant with the compound surname of 'Yuwen'. He said he was a big shot that all scholars know. You should hear this.

You know who it is, right?"

Yu Qing snorted and told the truth, but his tone was not very good, "I've never heard of it, who knows what kind of stinking shit it is."

Nanzhu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that even Lao Shiwu, who had read poetry and books, had never heard of it, and continued: "I heard that the man himself is not bad, and he is also a great talent. He got third place in the provincial examination. He should have been with

You went to Beijing to take the exam in the same session, but unexpectedly you got seriously ill and were delayed, so you had to wait until the next session."

"Tsk!" Yu Qing's face was full of disdain, "I don't even dare to call myself a great talent, how can he deserve it?"

Mu Aotie suddenly said, "You haven't even met that girl yet, and you start talking about her. That's a bit too much."
