I became a farmer's wife, and the cruel and powerful officials forced me to give birth to a chi

Chapter 159 You Will Be My Housekeeper From Now On

Jing Qishan asked the two maids in front of him: "What are your names?"

A round-faced girl said, "My name is Hua Hong."

An oval-faced woman said, "My name is Liu Lu."

Then Jing Qishan said to Li Yujiao: "From now on, these two will be your personal maids. You can ask them to do anything for you."

Li Yujiao: …

Jing Qishan knew that she was uncomfortable, but he did not intend to let her go, and said: "Not only these two maids, you will also be my housekeeper in the future. All the financial expenses of the family will be in your charge."

Li Yujiao was moved for a moment.

This man really likes her very much.

At least for now.

"Madam, do you want to visit the garden behind again?" Jing Qishan asked.

Li Yujiao said, "Let's go shopping."

But she added, "Can you... take off some of the jewelry on your head? It's so heavy."

Jing Qishan laughed out loud.

Then he took off her headgear in a few seconds, leaving only a hairpin, "My lady, if you don't like to wear it, then just don't wear it. Why bother yourself?"

Li Yujiao felt touched again.

"This dress is so cumbersome. It's dragging on the ground." Jing Qishan said.

Then Jing Qishan helped her take off the dress embroidered with gold thread and took out a cloak for her from the closet.

This makes it much more comfortable.

Huahong and Liulu couldn't help but laugh when they saw this.

The general dotes on his wife too much!

There is a big lake in the back garden. It is winter now and the capital is cold, so the lake is frozen.

But there are plum blossoms planted around, and it is the time when the plum blossoms are in full bloom, which looks very poetic.

Jing Qishan held Li Yujiao's hand and walked along the lakeside, saying to her, "If you don't like these plum blossoms, you can have them weeded, or have the lake filled up and planted with things you like."

Li Yujiao said speechlessly: "Why hoe it? The plum blossoms are so beautiful."

She walked under the plum tree to admire the plum blossoms, while Jing Qishan was admiring her.

The red plum blossoms echo her face, and she is prettier than the flowers.

Jing Qishan couldn't help but pull her over and kiss her hard.

Li Yujiao was confused by the kiss and said coquettishly, "Someone is watching us, please stop kissing me. You're kissing me with saliva all over my face."

Jing Qishan smiled to himself.

Li Yujiao suddenly thought of something, and asked Jing Qishan: "You will be in the capital from now on? Don't you need to go back to the southwest?"

"Of course I have to go back. I am the General of Zhenxi, responsible for guarding the southwest. I will probably be back in early February."

"..." Li Yujiao couldn't help but ask: "What about me?"

"Madam, you can choose to stay in the capital, or go back to the southwest with me." Jing Qishan looked at her with anticipation in his eyes.

He naturally hoped that she would follow him.

Of course Li Yujiao was reluctant to leave this big house.

But if she let Jing Qishan go back, she was worried that he would end up going astray.

So she said without hesitation: "I'll go back with you."

Jing Qishan was overjoyed when he got a positive answer, so he picked her up again and spun her several times in the air.

"My dear wife, I will love you forever!"

The servants working nearby all looked over here, and after realizing what was happening, they all ran away.

Li Yujiao was speechless.

……

In the evening, Jing Qishan called everyone in the house and asked Li Yujiao to recognize their faces carefully.

There is one housekeeper, five gardeners, three cooks, two purchasing agents, and ten maids. The maids are divided into personal servants and those who clean outside.

Li Yujiao felt a headache when she saw them kneeling respectfully in front of her.

Firstly, she felt that there were too many people, and secondly, she felt that everyone was equal, and she felt uncomfortable kneeling like this.

But Jing Qishan said that it was not a large number. If it were any other third-rank minister, there would be at least forty or fifty people in total, which would be terrifying.

The housekeeper's name is Li Zhongping. The names of the gardeners are the same as Huahong and Liulv, and seem to be temporarily named, such as Fuyi, Fuer, and Fusan. The cooks do have names, but the maids are all named after flowers, such as Lilac, Angelica dahurica and so on.

Li Yujiao said to Li Zhongping, "Tell them to stop kneeling and stand while talking."

Then everyone stood up.

Jing Qishan said calmly, "There are not many people in the mansion now, just me and my wife, so you won't have much work to do in the capital, but it will be different in the southwest."

Everyone was surprised for a moment.

Going to the southwest?

Jing Qishan asked: "Why? You don't want to go? If you don't want to go, then I will send you back to your original place tomorrow. You can go back to where you came from."

These servants were randomly selected from the Ministry of Revenue as a reward to Jing Qishan. If they were returned, no one might want them because of their bad reputation, and they might end up in the hands of human traffickers.

Huahong and Liulu quickly knelt down and expressed their opinions: "We are willing to follow the general and the lady and be loyal to the lady."

Li Zhongping also hurriedly said: "I am willing to follow the general."

The others also knelt down and said that they were willing to follow Jing Qishan.

Jing Qishan only left a few gardeners to look after the house, and then said, "Since you are all willing to go, let's prepare to leave next month."

……

At the same time, Jiang Li, He Yongyuan and others were also very happy in the new house.

He Yongyuan did not bring his wife back, and Jiang Li is a bachelor, so it is easy for them to make arrangements.

After settling down, they made an appointment to come to Jing Qishan.

After entering Jing Qishan's house, both of them were extremely envious.

"Your house is much bigger than mine." Jiang Li said, "There's even a lake behind it. Mine only has a fish pond."

"This is what General Jing deserves. Who made him kill enemies more fiercely than us?" He Yongyuan said, "I am not envious, not at all. Instead, I hope that General Jing can lead us to kill more enemies and get promoted to the next level in the future."

In order to help them feel balanced, Jing Qishan specially treated them to good wine and delicious food.

Li Yujiao drank two cups with them, but thinking that there were some things between men that were not suitable to be said to her, she found an excuse to go back to her room.

As soon as Li Yujiao left, Jiang Li asked, "What do you think? Should we pay a visit to General Song?"

He Yongyuan said: "I am also struggling with this issue, but now that we have been promoted and moved into the mansion, I am afraid he will bear a grudge against us."

Jing Qishan smiled and said, "We still need to put in some superficial effort. We will go to his house and give him a gift. Firstly, it will show that our relationship is not bad. Secondly, he will have face in the capital in the future, and his colleagues in the capital will not look down on him."

As soon as Jing Qishan finished speaking, Li Zhongping came in to report: "General, there is a man named Ding Qi who wants to see you. He is at the door."

The three people inside looked at each other, and then Jing Qishan said, "Let him in!"

After a while, Ding Qi came in.

After Ding Qi came in, he felt sour all over.

"What a huge house! Congratulations, General Jing!"
