Lin Shuran was stunned for a moment. It seemed that she had not expected that such an embarrassing thing would happen. Others were waiting to see her reaction with various expressions. They could even imagine her getting angry and angry.

However, Lin Shuran smiled, looked at Xu Minghao without blame and said: "It doesn't matter, mother knows you didn't mean it!" Then, she handed Xu Shisan back to An, and then looked at Xu Mingchen and others and continued.

, "I'm afraid, you have to wait in the side hall for a while. I need to go back to the inner room to change clothes first. The sage said: 'People are not polite if they are disrespectful.' Although we are mother and son, after all, there are differences between men and women. I can't do this.

Look good, otherwise the gentleman who taught me etiquette will chase me with a ruler and beat me!"

Lin Shuran's words were clearly said with a gentle smile, but as the eldest son, Xu Mingchen's face was slightly warm, and he felt a little ashamed. Lin Shuran's words sounded like she was talking about herself, but the implication seemed to be that she was talking about the Xu family.

It's like brothers don't understand etiquette and rules.

Xu Mingye snorted slightly and looked at Lin Shuran with unfriendly eyes. Others also had their own thoughts on Lin Shuran's friendly attitude at this time.

Xu Shisan cried loudly since he was beaten and was picked up by Anshi. The more Anshi coaxed him, the harder he cried. It was so anxious that Anshi almost started crying. Lin Shuran had no choice but to pick him up and hug him again. He immediately

Do not cry.

At this time, Xu Mingchen took a step forward, bowed politely to Lin Shuran and said, "Mom, please don't be angry. My brothers are used to being naughty. I will punish them when we get back. I will take them to the side hall to wait!"

Xu Minghao was still a little unconvinced. He didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, but pouted and glared at Lin Shuran. After that, they followed Xu Mingchen to the side hall next door to wait.

Anshi also followed the other two wet nurses to the side hall, while Lin Shuran carried the child and went back to the inner room with Chunxi to change clothes. When only the master and servant and a baby were left.

Chunxi felt a little unfair for her young lady's hug, and said angrily: "Miss, I think the young men of the Xu family did it on purpose. They are still the children of the general. They don't understand any rules at all, and they are so reckless.

Your clothes are all torn, you look like a bunch of wild monkeys."

Lin Shuran didn't say anything. These young masters of the Xu family were more than just wild monkeys. They were very quirky at a young age and didn't seem to be easy to get along with. However, she had some skills in dealing with naughty children. Besides, it was normal for children to be naughty.

"Chunxi, take out the gifts I prepared for the children!" After changing her clothes, Lin Shuran carried Xu Shisan into the side hall again. This time, I wonder if the eldest son Xu Mingchen said something to his brothers.

They all stood and waited for her in a polite manner.

"In the future, you don't have to spend time with me here in the morning and evening, and I don't have any special requirements for you. I just hope that we can take care of each other and live in harmony!" After saying that, Lin Shuran asked Chunxi to give them the meeting gifts, and gave them everything.

It was the same jade token, and they were all sent back after that, except Xu Shisan who stayed.

"Brother, what is written on this?" After walking out of Lin Shuran's yard, a younger brother from the Xu family approached Xu Mingchen and asked, turning over the jade plaque in his hand curiously.

"'May my son inherit the righteousness of the universe and establish the majesty of heaven and earth, with a well-thought-out plan in mind, no fear of wind and rain, a bright future, and a smooth career.'" Xu Mingchen's voice was clear and powerful, and his eyes began to become extraordinarily calm.

After that, he couldn't help but look back in the direction of Lin Shuran's yard. No one knew what he was thinking.

"That sounds like a good thing, but I don't know if this person is a good person!" Xu Minghao didn't believe that Lin Shuran would treat them sincerely. Women are cruel and hypocritical. Just wait and see, her fox tail will be revealed sooner or later.

.

When the courtyard became quiet again and Xu Shisan fell asleep, Lin Shuran remembered that she hadn't eaten breakfast yet. Fortunately, the food in the big kitchen had been prepared and brought quickly.

The Xu family has a simple population. Although it is a famous general's mansion, there are not many servants in the mansion. The people who take care of Xu Mingchen and others are veterans who have been on the battlefield. There are also servants and maids, but most of them are in the house.

The kitchen helps.

There was only one butler in the house, Xu Junze, and all the big and small matters were handed over to him. As soon as Lin Shuran had eaten breakfast, the butler Xu An had someone bring a box to see her.

"Madam Qi, this is Xu An, the chief steward of the mansion. The general has said that from today on, my wife will be in charge of the general's mansion!" Then he pointed to the box next to him and said, "This is the center of the mansion.

The accounts, the servants’ deeds of sale, and the keys to the warehouse will also be in charge of my wife, and the servants in the house will be dispatched by my wife!”

Xu An said humbly and took a step back, with a smile on his lips. With a mistress in the house, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and his white hair would grow less in the future.

Lin Shuran was surprised in her heart, but her face did not show it. Although she was not a real ancient, she also understood the rights and wrongs in the back house. Which bride like her started running the family just after her wedding night? Could it be Xu Junze deliberately

To embarrass and test her?!

"Okay!" Lin Shuran finished her sentence, and Xu An breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably. With his mistress, he hoped that the young masters in the house would restrain themselves, and the Xu family could be quiet for a few days.

For most of the next day, Lin Shuran began to check and flip through the contents of the box that Xu An sent in the room. Chunxi followed Granny Zhang to meet the servants of the Xu family, and the wet nurse An didn't dare to leave Lin Shuran at will.

In the yard, Xu Mingyu, the thirteenth young master of the Xu family, cried as soon as he left Lin Shuran.

"Let him stay here tonight!" Seeing that night was falling and the little boy Xu Shisan couldn't leave her, Lin Shuran asked An to stay with him so that he could breastfeed him at night.

An wanted to take the child away. After all, this was Lin Shuran's second wedding night. If the general came back and saw a baby on the bed, disturbing his and his wife's good night, then her lucrative job would be lost.

But she had to listen to her mistress's orders.

Sure enough, when Xu Junze entered the house and found his youngest adopted son lying on the bed, his face turned dark. An's had just finished feeding the child and was about to leave. When he saw that Xu Junze seemed angry, he was too frightened to move.

.

Xu Junze scolded coldly: "Who asked you to put your child here?!"

Anshi knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said in fear: "General, please calm down, it's your fault, my slave—"

"I asked her to put the child here!"

At this moment, Lin Shuran opened the curtain in the room and walked in. She looked at Xu Junze fearlessly and said.
Chapter completed!
