Xia Er said softly: "Steward Kong, apart from the fact that the young master is coming back, the young lady doesn't want to hear a word about anything else right now."
Butler Kong said: "A general named Hu is coming to see Miss, Xia'er, why don't you go and report it?"
Xia'er smiled bitterly and shook her head. Butler Kong had no choice but to turn to look at Xiaoqiu: "Xiaoqiu, how about you go?"
Xiao Qiu said loudly: "I'm not going. No general will work. Butler Kong, you might as well go and tell the general that I don't have time to see him."
Unknowingly, Tantai Heqing was able to refuse even the general's presence. Leaving aside her status as the wife of Jiedushi, Tantai Heqing was still the emperor's second-grade imperial concubine. A woman of high rank could
Don't bow to the official.
But Tantai Heqing walked out of the house, stood on the railing on the second floor, and asked from a high position: "What general?"
Butler Kong secretly thought that Xiaoqiu was clever enough to ask for directions, so he responded: "Miss, he is a general named Hu."
Tantai Heqing was confused: "General named Hu?" She has also been in contact with some generals these days, and the most familiar one is General Zhang Shiyi, the captain of Changzhou Zhechong.
Seeing that the young lady was full of doubts, Butler Kong simply said: "Miss, this is Hu Diquan."
Tantai Heqing was surprised: "That black Hu Diquan?"
Although there are many servants in the Tantai Mansion, Tantai Heqing remembers almost all of them, and the whole length of the Hu Di is weird, and the sly eyebrows and rat eyes are very annoying. After hanging around with Xie Fu, Tantai Heqing has a pretty good impression.
What’s profound is that the whole place disappeared later, and I don’t know where he died.
In contrast, Xia'er and Xiaoqiu were very familiar with Hu Diquan. When they heard that Hu Diquan had become a general, they looked very surprised.
Butler Kong nodded: "It's Hu Diquan who used to be the official in the mansion. He follows the young master and takes care of the young master's daily life."
Tantai Heqing said: "What does he want from me?"
"I didn't say anything. I was wearing a bright suit of armor and brought hundreds of soldiers wearing armor. I just said that I came to pay homage to the lady."
Upon hearing this, Tantai Heqing, who was accompanied by hundreds of soldiers, sneered: "Could he be here to show off his power to me? He is annoyed that I have punished him before and wants to settle old scores."
Xiao Qiu said coldly: "If he is so bold as Hu Di, I will chop him in half with an axe."
Butler Kong smiled and said: "Miss, I don't think so. Miss, you are now the wife of Jiedushi. This Hu Di is very clever. I think he wants to use his former master-servant relationship to seduce Miss. He is a good official."
Lu Gaosheng, he also bought a box of ginseng to give to the old slave to replenish his body, but the old slave confiscated it."
"Miss, see you or not?"
"Invite him to the hall, and I'll change my clothes and come right away."
"yes."
Tantai Heqing suddenly turned around: "Forget it, I'll greet you at the door in person."
Butler Kong exclaimed: "You are too flattering to him." After all, the young lady is now the wife of the Jiedushi, and the people who deal with the young lady are Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Gu and other rich and noble ladies.
Tantai Heqing smiled: "He is a general now, no longer a servant, and he can no longer look down on others."
After Tantai Heqing returned to the attic, Xiaoqiu said in a low voice: "It seems that the young lady is still facing the young master, and all she thinks about is doing things for the young master."
Xie Fu's position as Jiedushi has not yet been firmly established. Now is the time to hire people, and Tantai Heqing is helping him manage the country.
Xia Er smiled and said: "Of course, the young lady will scold you a thousand times, and the young master will just coax you and it will be over."
Hu Di was standing proudly at the door of Tantai Mansion wearing Mingguang armor. From time to time he looked at a group of brothers behind him who were also wearing armor. The saying that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles is absolutely correct. They are a group of miscellaneous soldiers.
After putting on this armor, he transformed into a heavenly soldier and general, extremely majestic.
Returning to Tantai Mansion after so many years, I don’t know if it’s considered an honorable return.
Looking at this rich and majestic door, as a servant, he was not qualified to walk through this main door. Today, he can finally walk upright for a while.
The excitement in his heart also made him look inside the door from time to time. There were people behind him who were waiting impatiently and said dissatisfiedly: "This group is bigger than the governor Lu. Master Lu went out to greet us in person, but he neglected us so much."
Hu Diquan turned around and replied: "Of course!" He pointed to the plaque on the door: "Look what is written on it?"
The soldier responded: "Tantai Mansion."
Hu Diquan said with a proud face: "Tantai Mansion is the residence of Miss Tantai, and Miss Tantai is the wife of our Lord Jiedushi, his wife!"
The soldiers nodded when they heard this and suppressed the pride on their faces. In fact, they were used to being looked down upon as food transport soldiers. Now that they had turned around, they were still afraid of being looked down upon.
Others respect them a foot, and they respect themselves a foot.
If someone disrespects me, he will retaliate, just like Zhang Shiyi, the captain of Changzhou Zhechong.
While waiting, I finally saw someone walking towards the gate. Someone among the soldiers said excitedly: "Come on, come on, who is Miss Tantai? She is so beautiful."
Hu Diquan looked around, but it was Xia'er and Xiaoqiu. He felt funny in his heart. These ignorant people mistakenly mistook the maid for a young lady. When you really see Miss Tantai, you will definitely be disappointed.
Seeing that Xia'er and Xiaoqiu were far away, their eyes fell on him and looked closely at him. He felt proud that he didn't recognize them anymore.
He held his head up high and let the two women take a good look at him. When they walked out of the door, Hu Diquan took the initiative and took a step forward: "Hey, these are not Sister Xiaoqiu and Sister Xia'er."
Hu Diquan changed his appearance, and the two women really didn't recognize him. When the familiar voice came, they confirmed that it was Hu Diquan: "Hu Diquan?"
Hu Diquan deliberately patted the golden and silver armor on his body, making a clanging sound, and said proudly: "How is it?"
Xia'er was a gentle person, and she usually had no conflicts with the servants in the house, and the same was true with Hu Diquan, so she gave him a faint smile in return.
The soldier behind him had never seen such a gentle and charming woman before. His heart was pounding. It would be great if he could marry her and become his wife.
As for Xiao Qiu, who was outspoken and often teased Hu Diquan, today was no exception. She exclaimed: "What's so great about it."
Seeing that Xiaoqiu still looked down on him, Hu Diquan became a little unhappy: "This is the Mingguang Armor, I am a general now."
"What about the general? The young master is now the second-grade military commander, and all of you generals are under his control."
Xiaoqiu moved out to Fu Xie and made Hu Di completely speechless with just one sentence. He had been with Fu Xie for so long. How many kilograms and taels did Xie Fu have and how many kilograms did he have?
No matter how hard I try in this life, I can't catch up with him, and I can only blow my beard in anger.
Xia'er was not as ignorant as Xiao Qiu. She took a step forward and said hello gently like an old friend: "Hu Diquan."
The fragrant wind blew by, making Hu Di happy all over. He smiled and said, "Sister Xia'er, you still smell so good."
Xia'er felt as if she was being teased, and her face turned slightly red. When Xiaoqiu saw this, she immediately scolded: "Hu Diquan, you snarky person, don't think that you can tease people openly and openly now that you are wearing a body. Let me tell you, you are
In my aunt's eyes, she is still a slave."
In front of all the brothers, Xiaoqiu's words immediately made Hu Diquan feel uncomfortable. It's not good to lose his temper, and it's not good to have a bad temper.
Seeing this, Xia'er hurriedly said: "Hu Diquan, don't care about her, Xiaoqiu is also so rude to the young master." Then he said a good word: "I knew back then that you were definitely not a fish in the pond.
, as expected!"
Hu Di was filled with joy at these words. He was the most face-saving person. He laughed and said, "Thanks to Sister Xia'er for taking such good care of me back then."
Hu Diquan must have looked wretched, and when he smiled, he felt cheap. Xiao Qiu immediately said coldly: "You're still here!"
Hu Diquan was no longer polite: "Xiaoqiu, you deserve it and you still can't get married until now."
Xiaoqiu even dared to confront Xie Fu, so how could she take Hu Diquan seriously: "Hu Diquan, you deserve to be still a slave now."
"Xiaoqiu, you are still a slave, I am no longer a general, I am still a general."
"You bastard general!"
"You evil slave!"
"General Fart!"
"Evil slave!"
The two of them started fighting and scolding each other, and Xia'er, who was gentle and soft-spoken, tried to persuade them to make peace, but she couldn't get in the way of a conversation like this.
Some soldiers behind him hooted: "Looking like a happy enemy, could it be that he is our General Hu's old friend?"
When Xiaoqiu heard this, she was not happy. She turned to the soldiers and said fiercely: "Who is his old friend?"
All the soldiers wanted to tease him and responded in unison: "You are our General Hu's old friend."
Xiao Qiu angrily put her hands on her hips and raised her chest, and said angrily with a pretty face: "Nonsense!"
"Yo yo yo, I'm too shy to admit it."
Hu Diquan felt like he had regained face in front of a group of brothers, so he simply said: "Xiaoqiu, please stop being jealous."
Xiaoqiu suddenly became furious: "Hu Diquan, I will kill you."
"Come on, I let you go before, but now I want to hug you."
Just as the two of them were getting ready to start fucking, a clear voice came: "What's the fuss about?"
Everyone looked and saw a beautiful woman walking towards her. Although her dress was simple and elegant, her exquisite makeup and gorgeous headdress made her exuding nobility and beauty.
The soldiers watched mesmerized, as if the queen was coming, their knees were weak, and they couldn't help but kneel under her skirt, no! They were surrendering at their feet!
Hu Diquan was also shocked both physically and mentally. After not seeing her for many years, the lady was still as noble and beautiful as before, making people admire and admire her.
As soon as Tantai Heqing showed up, she stunned all the men. She has been in business for many years and has often been in contact with high-ranking officials and ladies for more than a year. She does have this aura.
Xiaoqiu saw Tantai Heqing as if she was seeing a savior, and ran over: "Miss, he bullied me."
Tantai Heqing glanced at Hu Diquan lightly, making Hu Diquan feel uneasy in his heart. This fear seemed to have been engraved in his bones, and he lowered his head, not daring to look into Tantai Heqing's eyes.
Faced with Xiaoqiu's complaint, Tantai Heqing shouted coldly: "Shut up, I don't know you yet, I'll go get ten lashes myself later!"
This cold-faced and ruthless shout reached the hearts of all the soldiers. They had never seen such a woman before. She was obviously noble and beautiful, but it seemed that this man with a high-ranking aura was even colder.
This sound also shocked Hu Diquan's heart. It was still the roar of a lion from Hedong. He didn't know how the gentle-tempered Xie Fu was bullied by her on weekdays. It was pitiful and pitiful.
Hu Diquan felt a charming fragrance coming faintly. He looked up and found that Tantai Heqing had come closer at some time. He instinctively smiled and showed an almost flattering smile.
Tantai Heqing smiled in his heart, his sly eyebrows had not changed at all. He squinted slightly and looked at him: "This general looks so familiar."
Hu Diquan said hurriedly: "Miss, it's me, Hu Diquan."
"Hu Diquan!"
Tantai Heqing pretended to be surprised, her beautiful eyes widened and she looked carefully from head to toe.
Facing Tantai Heqing's beautiful eyes, Hu Diquan secretly cried out in his heart, Miss, please stop staring. If you keep staring, I will be embarrassed. Which man can stand your gaze like this?
I was so excited that I stood up straight.
Tantai He made a sound and said happily: "Hu Diquan, it's really you, how did you become like this?"
Hu Diquan explained: "When I left Tantai Mansion, my lady gave me a large sum of money. I originally wanted to use the money to do business, but who knew it was not the material for business at all, and I lost everything."
"
Tantai Heqing smiled: "Do you think business is so easy?"
"Yes, yes, it's only now that I realized how difficult it is to do business."
As Hu Diquan spoke, his expression showed sincere admiration and respect. This shows how difficult it was for her to go through this journey as a woman without a backer.
"Later, the younger one joined the army. With his brute force, he managed to gain some respect, without losing face to you, Miss."
"Okay, okay, you are also a general now. Stop calling me Miss. I should change my name and call you General Hu."
Hearing Tantai Heqing be so respectful, Hu Di was filled with joy. He felt more comfortable than if he had spent a night with osmanthus: "No! No matter where the world ends, in the year of the monkey and the moon in the horse, the lady will always be the villain's lady!"
Tantai Heqing couldn't help but chuckle. Those words were probably stained by Mr. Xie's ink.
Speaking of which, Hu Diquan's ability to become this grain transport officer is really due to Xie Fu. It was Xie Fu who forced him to learn to write his own name, and later forced him to read and write.
This grain transport officer had to keep accounts and read official documents. All soldiers were rough and tumble, so Hu Diquan stood out.
Tantai Heqing smiled: "You have to admit, I also have a bright face and a whole world, so why are you here today?"
Hu Diquan was very happy to see the lady calling him by his name so affectionately. This time, the lady's "Diquan" was enough. He raised his hand, and a soldier immediately brought a large brocade box.
Hu Diquan took it and said, "Miss, I came here to pay you a special visit to thank you for your kindness."
Tantai Heqing glanced at the brocade box: "Diquan, I don't lack anything. How much is your salary? Why spend this unjust money?"
"It's a small gift, please accept it, Miss."
"Since it's a small gift, I can't let you down. Butler Kong, please accept it."
