Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

The City Lord's Mansion has not changed much compared to before, especially in winter, it is a vast expanse of whiteness, only the red lanterns under the trees and under the eaves can set off a bit of joy.

People from all over the house came and went in a hurry, and occasionally two or three stopped to look at Li Haitang and his party, then lowered their heads and walked over silently.

This tense feeling made Mrs. Chen very uncomfortable. Now she is very glad that she did not bring her goddaughter with her. Maybe it was because of the death of the family. When she looked at the red window grilles, she felt that she was smeared with human blood, and she was terrified. Panic.

The tall mansion has a sense of splendor for no reason.

"Boss, I have never seen much of the world as a girl, and her parents are gone, so I am the only relative."

After Mrs. Chen's husband and children were gone, she believed in the theory of karma. If someone had to replace her, she didn't want Li Haitang to take over.

Once someone finds out, she will lose her head. After returning home from this trip, she will quickly move, find a small village, and spend the rest of her life incognito.

Being a middle-aged person has made a lot of money in these years, and the life of being rich and powerful can't be lived. When I go back to the countryside, I can buy two cows and a piece of land. people.

"It's Xiaohong, right?"

The chief steward squinted at Li Haitang with triangular eyes. The large kitchen in the mansion is an important part of the entire city lord's mansion. People in the mansion are not allowed to have big nails, and the ones bought from outside don't know the source, so she After thinking for a long time, I finally decided to find an acquaintance to introduce.

An introduction by an acquaintance is not about looking for someone randomly, but someone who knows how to do it.

Mrs. Chen has only one daughter-in-law to depend on, and Xiaohong's parents are both dead. She has already inquired about these important matters, but she never expected that Mrs. Chen would have the guts to find someone to impersonate.

"Boss, godmother let me do it well."

Li Haitang took the opportunity to answer, she was afraid that Mrs. Chen would repent and say something that would make the other party suspicious, so she hurriedly added.

"Xiaohong, this scarlet letter can no longer be used, you have to change to a new name, so as not to break the taboo."

The chief steward rubbed his chin, and finally said, "I like green radishes. They are fresh and refreshing in the inner room, and they still take root in the water. Why don't you call them green radishes."

"OK."

If you want to live a decent life, you must have a bit of green on your body. The name of a maid named Luluo is considered nice, better than Xiaohong, not so perfunctory.

Li Haitang nodded obediently, looking forward to going to the big kitchen early. She was a little hungry in the morning and didn't have enough food. She might have a delicious meal in the big kitchen.

Anyway, the beef in the city lord's mansion is basically enough, and the cooks are also showing their skills to win the favor of the city lord and the old lady. Last time, she seemed to see someone making spicy beef jerky.

The chief steward was satisfied with Li Haitang, and immediately signed the deed of sale. It said Xiaohong, and asked her to sign a death deed directly with her fingerprints.

After signing the death contract, special servants took her to tidy up the house. Most of the cooks in the big kitchen had families and mouths, so she was lucky enough to be assigned a small single room by herself.

"Girl, you signed the death contract, and you will be a member of the City Lord's Mansion from now on."

Mrs. Chen sighed. Anyway, this contract is useless. The name and handprint don't match. If you can't get along, you can run away. However, the City Lord's Mansion is powerful, and it is still very difficult to escape without being caught.

"This is thirty taels of silver that the steward gave me. I can't ignore your selling money."

As Mrs. Chen said, she stuffed the silver into Li Haitang's hands very sadly, and she had to go back after everything was handed over.

In winter, the north wind was biting, but Mrs. Chen was sweating all over her forehead. She was afraid just now, and she was afraid that if Li Haitang didn't want to speak out, both of them would suffer.

"Godmother, I'll see you off."

Li Haitang didn't have any luggage, quilts, etc. The city lord's mansion had its own rules, and the chief steward had arranged for it, so she didn't have to worry about it. Now she used giving away as an excuse to familiarize herself with the terrain again.

The two walked out the door as they spoke. From outsiders' perspective, it looked like a mother and daughter were inseparable.

"The chief steward named me Luluo, and said that red criminals are taboo, why?"

This should have been asked to the chief steward, but that person is strict, and she is new here, so she shouldn't say something, and she must not talk too much, if she left a bad impression, she might be stared at.

"This taboo is known to everyone in the house. If you don't know, you can quietly ask others."

Mrs. Chen made clear the stakes. Although Li Haitang went to the big kitchen, she was just a pastry cook who didn't pay much attention to her. She was no better than a fire girl, and she couldn't hinder others.

Since there is no interest relationship, it will not be run on.

The water in the City Lord's Mansion is too deep, so be careful with every step you take.

"Something happened last year. It is said that a group of dancers sneaked in and assassinated the old lady while the old lady was celebrating her birthday..."

Mrs. Chen looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she leaned closer to Li Haitang's ear and whispered, "The old lady played with the dancer's younger brother and ruined her family, so those people are here for revenge!"

Almost all of them were executed, but two escaped, one named Hongtao and one named Hongtang.

"So, when the city lord heard the word red, he felt disgusted?"

Li Haitang smacked and felt that the name was a little familiar. After she realized it, she couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth. That heart is Xiao Taohong, and Hongtang, even if you don't know it, is her true self!

It may be that the two escaped, casting a shadow on the city lord.

"It's said that Hongtao is very beautiful, but the city lord doesn't know which muscle is wrong. He fell in love with a dancer named Hongtang."

Mrs. Chen began to gossip, talking eloquently, and made up a touching story about the day when they first met.

Li Haitang really wanted to correct it, but in fact, she came back from the big kitchen, went the wrong way, accidentally ran into the city lord, that's all.

Rather than composing poems and appreciating flowers, the city lord is impressed by his talent, which is too ridiculous!

"Then what?"

Li Haitang couldn't help asking the follow-up, but she didn't expect that she would become the white moonlight of the city lord Yu Wenshou.

"And then there is no after."

Mrs. Chen spread her hands, and Hongtang fled. The city lord turned over the point in Sishui City but couldn't find anyone. I heard that the identity of the other party is not simple, and it is likely to be from Daqi.

The city lord was in a daze for a while, so he made a portrait of himself and asked his soldiers to search everywhere for a beautiful lady who was similar to Hongtang. However, there are so many beauties in the boundary of Sishui City!

"It is said that the city lord has a backyard, but we don't know."

Mrs. Chen warned Li Haitang, anyway, she is not good looking, she is absolutely safe in appearance, when she works in the kitchen, she should be honest, don't ask around for secrets out of curiosity.

You can ask if you don't understand, but don't involve privacy. These days, the more you know, the faster you die.
