Chapter 242 Change to a better yard
Soon, Brother Xiaodong was introduced into the courtyard by a little maid.
The lady inside didn't know what she was doing. She didn't let Brother Xiaodong in, but just answered at the door with her head lowered.
Brother Xiaodong was respectful and did not dare to raise his head, "Miss Hui, Xiaodong has found the person you are looking for."
"Huh?" The lady's voice sounded quite satisfied. "Where are the people?"
"I have temporarily locked you up in a vacant courtyard. But..." Xiaodong hesitated and said, "Xiaodong doesn't know which one you are looking for. I brought several people back. "
The young lady seemed to chuckle, "It seems that among those few people, there is more than one with outstanding looks?"
Xiaodong scratched his head and wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to explain it well.
The young lady was obviously in a good mood, "Well, how do you know how to appreciate beauties? Go find Mother Chen and arrange a courtyard for them. Don't make them thirsty and hungry. Let them come to see me tomorrow."
"Yes." Xiaodong came out quickly.
His face was full of annoyance at the moment. It seemed that he had gone astray before. The young lady was quite interested in these people.
Before, he thought the lady was just having fun and he didn't need to be too polite, but now...
Thinking of this, Xiaodong quickened his pace. He wanted to quickly find Mother Chen to arrange a better yard and show kindness to those people to prevent them from giving him eye drops in front of the young lady.
Xiaodong left in a hurry, but Xue Ting did not leave in a hurry, because he heard the little maid in the room ask, "Miss, you have been looking for him all day, why are you missing when he is brought back? "
"Why are you so anxious? I don't think he looks like a kid from an ordinary family. How can he be willing to commit himself to me? It's better to let him see the momentum of our house first and give him a warning."
"Oh, so that's it. Miss, you have thought carefully." The little maid suddenly realized.
"Go, tell Mother Chen..." The young lady's voice suddenly softened, and she must have whispered to the little maid. After hearing this, the little maid responded and quickly left the yard.
After hearing this, Xue Ting raised the corners of his lips and sneered, then flew away.
When he went back to the small courtyard, he saw Long Baoer and Chang Yi sitting side by side on the threshold.
The weather is warm at this time, not freezing. It's just that her sister was dragged into this place by him, and now she has to eat or drink. When has the little girl of his family suffered such injustice since she returned home!
"younger sister!"
"Second brother!" Long Baoer was still listening to Chang Yi's story. When he heard Xue Ting's voice, he suddenly raised his head in surprise. His eyes were full of joy. He stood up and rushed towards Xue Ting.
As soon as Xue Ting saw his sister's appearance, his mood instantly improved. He opened his arms and hugged the little girl who rushed into his arms, "Sister, are you hungry?"
"I'm not hungry, I'm a little thirsty..."
"Don't worry, brother..."
"Hey, senior brother is back!" Qinglang also rushed back shortly afterwards, still holding a kettle in his hand.
That was what Xue Ting gave him before leaving.
They divided into two groups and followed Xiaodong all the way, while one went to visit the entire prefect's Yamen.
"I didn't find anything good, so I brought some warm water to my sister." Qing Lang said, shaking the kettle in his hand. "But this thing is very useful. It doesn't look big, but it can hold several teapots of water."
Xue Ting did not explain, but reached out to take the kettle and poured the water into the bottle cap. The bottle cap looks like a small tea cup, just for drinking water.
After handing the warm water to Long Baoer, Xue Tingcai explained, "My grandmother Yang made these, and our brothers all have them. Brother Qinglang likes them, and I will give you two later."
"Haha, then I'd like to thank Brother Xue. This is much prettier than Ma Daoye's gourd."
Long Baoer was probably really thirsty and drank two glasses in a row. Then Chang Yi also drank a small cup.
Just after finishing the drink, I heard footsteps coming from outside the courtyard.
Xue Ting glanced at the door, put away the kettle, and led the three of them into the house to find a place to sit down.
It was Brother Xiaodong who came outside the door.
Just now, Brother Xiaodong found Mother Chen and conveyed the lady's words, asking her to prepare a better courtyard.
Mother Chen didn't care at first, but then the maid next to the young lady came over and expressed what the young lady meant, and then Mother Chen started to take it seriously.
She chose a courtyard that was very nice in terms of size and surrounding environment.
The yard is very exquisite. The flowers and plants in the yard and the furnishings in the house are all of a high value that can be seen at a glance.
Seeing this courtyard, Brother Xiaodong breathed a sigh of relief, went to the kitchen and ordered a table of food, asking them to deliver it to the lady's distinguished guests as soon as possible, and then hurried towards the courtyard.
The door lock was unlocked, and Brother Xiaodong had a smile on his face, and he smiled very flatteringly.
"A few distinguished guests..."
Brother Xiaodong's words were interrupted by Qinglang, "Dignified guest? Whose distinguished guest would be arranged in a place like this?"
"It's all the little one's fault." Brother Xiaodong hit him twice on the face, not lightly, "Young master, don't argue with me like a servant. In fact, the little one doesn't mean to neglect you. Aren’t the rooms not tidied up for a while, and we are afraid that a few distinguished guests will leave? Now..."
"Has the room been tidied up now?"
"Ah? Right, right." Brother Xiaodong was a little surprised why these two people could always intercept his words accurately, but at this time, he had no time to care about such things, so he could only laugh.
"Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you lead the way?" Xue Ting shouted softly.
Brother Xiaodong's face turned slightly ugly, but he soon changed to a smiling face, "Yes, yes, yes!"
He led four people straight to the small courtyard that had been tidied up just now. Brother Xiaodong proudly introduced them to the flowers and plants in the courtyard, his words full of showoff and contempt.
