"Then this Xia'er will stay with me for now, and the others will ask the housekeeper to make arrangements." Shuzi stood up from the chair and waved to Xia Houranluo, "Come on, follow me in."
"Yes, madam." Xia Houran nodded, feeling very happy that he was left here so easily, and quickly followed Shuzi into the inner room.
This is Gong Lian Yangxun's room. He has lived here since he took over the Prime Minister's Mansion. Although there are things used by the female family members in the room, there are more traces left that belong to Gong Lian Yangxun, such as the things that were left carelessly.
There are books on the coffee table, or there are not only bookshelves there, but also a desk and the Four Treasures of the Study. There are also portraits with unfinished clothes randomly placed on the desk. The woman in the portrait is still purple. It seems that
It is true that Gong Lianyangxuan often used portraits to express his thoughts, but unexpectedly he had seen Shu Zi again before this painting was finished. So how could Gong Lianyangxuan, who always did things very first and foremost, casually paint this painting?
Is the painting just left here?
With his heart tightening, Xia Houranluo withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and stood next to Shuzi.
"Your name is Xia'er?"
After hearing Shuzi's words, Xia Houranluo nodded: "Yes, madam."
"Are you from the imperial capital?"
Shuzi has always been a cautious person, and he is really not as good as the child with a five-year-old mind in the past, so Xia Houranluo did not dare to delay, and said a set of words that he had prepared: "Xia Houranluo said
Xia'er is not from the imperial capital, Xia'er is from Liangyun Town, and his ancestors were originally from the Zhou Dynasty."
"People from the Zhou Kingdom?" Shu Zi had no political trends in his memory, and he had never even heard of the Zhou Kingdom.
"Yes, the Zhou Kingdom was destroyed by the Gong Kingdom more than 20 years ago. Liangyun Town was protected by the Feng Kingdom and incorporated into the country, so to be precise... Xia'er can be considered a Feng Kingdom person." Xia Houran
Luo's words are perfect. Liangyun Town is so far away from the imperial capital, and it is definitely impossible for Shuzi to conduct a detailed investigation. Even if Shuzi wants to investigate, it will take a lot of time to send people out to go back and forth, so
She is quite confident.
"I see, then I guess in the past... Xia'er's family was considered a wealthy family in the Zhou Kingdom. It's a pity that it's in trouble now."
Shuzi's words surprised Xia Houranluo. The Zhou Kingdom had been destroyed for more than 20 years, and she looked only fifteen years old. Even if her family was a wealthy family in the past, it should have nothing to do with her. So,
How do you associate Shuzi?
"Madam...why do you say this?"
"Because of the greetings you just said." Shuzi did not hide anything and said truthfully, "Actually, I have also learned these etiquettes, but I am very stupid. The grandma who taught me etiquette said that some things need to be learned and practiced since childhood.
So I think your etiquette just now is so perfect. If you don’t work in a wealthy family, you must be born into wealth, so I don’t ask this much.”
"Madam, you are so smart." Xia Hou Ranluo also felt relieved. Shu Zi is actually very smart, but she doesn't have much knowledge, so she can only see a few clues from here. The person who greeted her just now was Xia Hou Ranluo.
It was intentional. If she wanted to play the role of a mountain girl, she would naturally perform the role very well. She just used such a decent greeting just to let the housekeeper and Shuzi keep her. After all, this is the Prime Minister's Mansion.
As Gong Liyangxuan, how could the maid who stayed with the Prime Minister's wife be a mountain girl who didn't understand etiquette?
