She breathed slightly short of breath, and she was crushed on the bed as soon as her eyes bloomed... This night, Gu Jinyun's energy was extraordinarily abundant.
Qi Surong thought in a daze, there seems to be something wrong? What she put in the bath water is obviously the medicinal herbs to calm the nerves and help sleep, what is it like eating a bull/whip?
The next day, when Gu Jinyun was about to go out, Qi Surong handed him a medicine list and said, "Is it difficult to find some flavors on it, can you help me get a few back?"
"Are you unwell? Was it last night..."
"No." Qi Surong's face became hot, and she quickly denied it, saying, "This is a prescription I got from an old man, and it is quite effective for gout and stubborn arthritis."
"Gout stubborn?"
"Yeah." Qi Surong nodded, "Yesterday it was raining, and I saw my father-in-law had trouble walking. I asked my uncle, and I know that he fought on the battlefield in his early years and left the root of his disease. Every time it was rainy, his legs and feet would hurt. My father He is also a warrior, and his situation is similar to that of my father-in-law. He soaks his feet with this prescription on weekdays, and the pain is relieved a lot, so I want my father-in-law to try it.”
Gu Jinyun looked at her deeply, then put away the prescription properly, turned around and walked out of the house.
Qi Surong watched his carriage leave, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Shuang Shuang squatting by the pillar, looking at her with puppy-like eyes
Qi Surong walked over with a smile, pulled her up, and helped her straighten her messy hair: "Another person came over? Come here, can I teach you how to draw?"
"Painting?" A twinkle flashed in both eyes.
"Yeah, I'll teach you to draw, I'll teach you to draw beautiful clothes, and then I'll make them for you and dress you up beautifully."
"Okay, okay, both of you want to paint beautiful clothes."
"What color do Shuang Shuang like?"
"Well, red, yellow, blue, purple..." Both of them counted carefully with their fingers crossed.
"So many, don't you have a favorite?"
"What color does sister-in-law like?"
"Purple and red."
"The pair also like purple and red."
"Ha ha……"
The two walked away while talking.
☆、Chapter 69 Steward
After half a month of marrying into the Gu family, Qi Surong basically recognized everyone in the Gu family. Combined with the memory of the previous life, she had a relatively comprehensive understanding of the situation in the Gu family's backyard.
The Gu family's house is only a medium-sized house in the capital, with 76 servants and 32 nurses. Several masters of the Gu family, including Gu Jinyun, are more lenient towards their servants, and they are not very particular about etiquette. As long as they do their jobs well, they don't steal chickens and dogs, and they don't cause trouble. Most of the small mistakes are usually closed eyes. One eye, so the inner courtyard of the Gu family does not have the strict grading and cumbersome rules like the famous families.
If the Gu family was just an ordinary businessman's family, it would be okay to keep the status quo, but now the Gu family has gradually begun to contact the powerful and powerful in the capital, and in the future, he may often have to entertain some people with status and status. In this way, the etiquette of servants will become especially important. If they are rude, they will lose the face of the Gu family. The guests may not reprimand them in person, but they will feel contempt, and may even stop being invited to the door.
Qi Surong came from a well-known family, and all the servants in the mansion had undergone strict training. They are generally good at observing words and expressions, adapting to changes, and have a certain understanding of the clothing, hobbies, habits, taboos, etc. of nobles and nobles, and will not neglect others at will.
As for the servants of the Gu family, they only need to know the rules. For example, Fang He, the girl in Shuangshuang, saw Qi Surong for the first time, she was scornful, behaved casually, and did not know how to speak properly. Qi Surong's husband is the eldest young master of the Gu family. The old woman is no longer alive. She is the most important mistress of the Gu family, but Fang He treats this lightly. If he sees a distinguished guest doing the same thing in the future, the Gu family is afraid that he will be slandered and ridiculed.
Qi Surong has experienced a lifetime of hardships. Originally, there was nobility and standard manners and etiquette everywhere, but only the bones were left after being polished by time. After the rebirth, she is no longer proud of this, but the thoughtful etiquette is not only a manifestation of self-cultivation, but also respect for others.
After half a month of observation, Qi Surong finally decided to start rectifying Gu's inner courtyard. Of course, this matter must be reported to the father-in-law and husband first.
Gu Jinyun said, "You are the hostess, and you have the final say on how to manage the house."
Gu Chang was even more refreshing, and with a big wave, let her go and do it.
With the support of the two, Qi Surong no longer hesitated.
The first step is to serve uniformly. The house is mainly divided into six parts: hall, inner room, study, courtyard, kitchen, and stables. Qi Surong planned to design six kinds of clothing, with the most particular about the costumes in the hall, the inner room and the study. The servants in the hall are mainly responsible for receiving guests. Their clothes must be kept clean and tidy, and their appearance must be correct. The inner room is mainly a maid, who often goes in and out of the bedroom to take care of the owner's diet and daily life. The servants in the study are responsible for sorting out books and letters. As for the servants who manage the courtyards, kitchens, stables and other places, they do all the rough work, and the servants should be mainly dark and stain-resistant.
Qi Surong didn't plan to design clothes with too big differences in style. There are two styles for men and women. Then, according to different divisions, he makes slight changes in color, placket and some small accessories. The color of the male servant's clothing is mainly blue, and the color of the maid's clothing is mainly red, and then different patterns are embroidered to distinguish it.
"Shuangshuang, come and try." Qi Surong picked up a skirt and gestured, "Your new clothes are ready."
Both of them touched their clothes with excitement on their faces.
"Sister-in-law, can you change your clothes?" Qi Surong said gently.
Shuangshuang agreed only after a moment of hesitation. During this period of time, they have been with Qi Surong, and both of them gradually developed dependence and trust in her.
Qi Surong smiled, motioned to Ping'er to guard at the door, and then pulled Shuang Shuang to his side, helping her undress while talking to her to distract her.
After a while, only the apron was left on Shuangshuang's body. Qi Surong turned behind her, and at a glance, she saw that there were several bruise marks of different shades on her back, like the pinch marks of fingers. This kind of mark is not only on the back, but also seems to be on the front.
