When Duan Yange entered the house, the loyal old butler immediately greeted him, his eyes were full of surprises: "My young master, you are finally back."

After finishing speaking, he bowed his body and looked around the young master he had grown up with for a long time.

Duan Yange didn't refuse either, and just let the old housekeeper scrutinize him carefully. After all, this housekeeper was a little closer to him than Old Master Duan.

"Young Master, as long as you are not injured, as long as you are not injured." The old butler breathed a sigh of relief after carefully observing the scene.

Duan Yange smiled, and helped the old housekeeper: "Uncle Wu, you don't have to worry, your young master's life is hard, and he won't die for a while, the Jade Emperor, Lord Yan, is so willing to ask for me."

What Duan Yange said was true, he had obviously died in a disaster, but miraculously in this era, wouldn't it be possible that Lord Yama would not accept him.

"Bah, bah, bah!" The old butler immediately retorted when he heard this, "What are you talking about?"

After the scolding, he clasped his hands together and bowed to the sky, muttering: "My young master's unintentional words, don't be offended by all gods, don't be offended..."

"How is my father?" Seeing that the old housekeeper couldn't stop nagging, Duan Yange had to ask himself.

The old butler slapped his head and shouted: "You see, old people are useless. The master tripped over the threshold the day before yesterday, and there was a stone in front of him. His knee was contused, and he is still on the bed now. "

Duan Yange walked to the backyard while listening. When he came back this time, he received a letter from Lord Duan saying that he was lying in bed and couldn't get up.

Old Lord Duan was knighted by his military merits. He stayed in the barracks for a long time, and he always spoke and acted like a gentleman in the army. Sometimes some unrefined words came out, Duan Yange was also understandable.

It's just that Mr. Duan was vague in his letter, only saying that he was lying on the bed and couldn't get up.Duan Yange thought he was suffering from some serious illness, so when he received the news, he bid farewell to Mu Changfeng immediately, and hurried back to the capital. It turned out that he had broken his leg.However, this disease can be considered as big or small, if it is just a trauma, rest for a few days and it will be fine, but if it really hurts the muscles and bones, it is still quite troublesome.

Duan Jiayuan was not big, and Duan Yange was running fast, so he soon arrived at the door of the bedroom of Lord Duan.

After knocking on the door, Old Master Duan pretended to cough twice before he came in.

"Father, how is your leg?" Duan Yange hurriedly asked as soon as he entered the door, and poured another cup of tea for Old Master Duan.

Duan Lao Hou looked at him sideways, with an unpredictable expression: "You still know to come back to see your father."

Duan Yange smiled apologetically, and gave the tea to Old Master Duan. Unexpectedly, the old man slapped it, and all the water spilled out, and the blue and white porcelain teacup was also broken into pieces.

"Father, let me take a look at your legs." Duan Yange was not annoyed when he saw this, but lifted the quilt of Master Duan to check his injuries.

Duan Laohou immediately pulled the quilt over and covered it, staring fixedly at Duan Yange, his eyes opened like copper bells: "Do you still suspect that your father is pretending?"

Duan Yange was extremely helpless, so he had no choice but to say softly: "I just want to see your injury, Dad."

Old Master Duan still refused, and only said that the doctor said that the leg injury could not see the wind, and that the white cloth wrap was too ugly. In short, he didn't want Duan Yange to check.

Duan Yange was dumbfounded by the behavior of Master Duan who had no silver 300 taels here, so he had to agree.But he knew that Old Master Duan was probably not injured, and this was just an excuse to ask him to come back.

Then, he called himself back in such a hurry, it should be because of the marriage.

It's just that Old Master Duan didn't mention this matter today, so he just pretended not to know.

But Duan Yange did not expect that when he returned to his yard, the West Pavilion was actually inhabited.Duan Yange never likes to be served by others, there is only one servant, let alone a maid.The servant's room in Exi Pavilion has always been empty, why did someone come in at this moment.

Duan Yange immediately asked Duan Wen who had been serving her at home since she was a child, and Duan Wen answered very concisely: "House filling girl."

Duan Yange's eyes widened in disbelief. No matter how hard Duan Lao Hou did it, he just picked up his crutches and hit him lightly twice.

Duan Wen saw that Duan Yange's complexion was not very good, so he thought for a while and immediately replied: "Master Xiang came to find Lord Hou the day before yesterday and said that the eldest son of the Shangguan family is going to get married on July 28."

No wonder, Duan Yange thought to himself, Old Master Duan was about the same age as the prime minister of the current dynasty, both loved hand-talking, and their level was almost the same, so they often got together to play games.

Shangguan Jinsa's marriage was arranged since she was a child. It is said that this date was specially asked by Mrs. Shangguan to count on a rare day in ten years. The prime minister was naturally happy, so he had to mention a few words in front of his friends.

This touched the mind of Old Master Duan, Shangguan Jinsa and Duan Yange were only one year older, they even counted their days, and he didn't even find someone to marry, so don't worry.

"So my father first found me a girl to fill in the house." Duan Yange couldn't help smiling wryly.

"Yes." Duan Wen replied very respectfully: "Master Hou said that even though Mr. Shangguan married before the young master, but he married a man, the grandson of Xiangye will definitely not be able to hold him before him."

"Then why is he in a hurry?"

"Master Hou said that the Shangguan family still has a second son, Shangguan Jinnian, and he is afraid that the second son will get married earlier than you."

Duan Yange couldn't help heaving a long sigh, what the old duan Hou Ye did was really unbearable for him.But the most troublesome thing is how he will explain to Old Master Duan.Now she is just a house-filling girl, one day the old man handed over a booklet to the emperor to ask the emperor to marry him, wouldn't he want to force him to act against the holy order.

In such distress, the door of the West Pavilion was suddenly opened, and a young girl with an outstanding appearance and a graceful figure walked out of it, who seemed to have just passed her age.

Seeing Duan Yange, the little girl bowed profusely, saluted, and then said: "My slave, Qinghe, pays my respects to the young master."

His voice is neither humble nor overbearing, and his words and deeds are reasonable everywhere.No makeup was applied on her face, but it looked pure and elegant, which matched her name.

Quietly, suddenly thinking of Bai Yu, Duan Yange sighed, wondering if he is still in Liangcheng now, if there is a chance, you can go there to see him.After all, Bai Yu is a person who makes people feel comfortable when they meet him.

Hearing his young master sigh again, Duan Wen couldn't help shrinking his body. His young master grew up holding it in a honey pot. Although he went to Tianxuan Mountain to practice martial arts and suffered a lot, he was always happy in his heart. He Zeng I've seen him so distressed.

"Get up first." Duan Yange waved to Qinghe, then turned and walked towards the bedroom.Duan Wen naturally went in to bring tea and water, leaving only Qing He in the huge courtyard. Qing He glanced at the room, then turned and went back to the West Pavilion.

"Duan Wen, where did my father find her?" Duan Yange sat down at the tea table and asked.

Duan Wen immediately added tea to Duan Yange: "Qing He was recruited by Lord Hou who made a list the day before yesterday."

"Zhang Bang?" Duan Yange frowned.

"Yes." Duan Wen nodded: "Master Hou posted a notice in front of the mansion saying that he was recruiting maidservants for the manor. There were quite a few people who came to apply for the recruitment. Master Hou picked four who were beautiful and took the literary test. , and finally Qing He was left behind."

I really didn't expect that the old man would use such a method to recruit house maids for him, it really took great pains.

"Then what about Qinghe's family background?" Duan Yange asked, if she could still find her family, it would be a big deal to send some money back.

Duan Wen sighed and said: "Master, Qinghe's life experience is also pitiful. Her ancestral home is Duanzhou, her mother left early, and she and her father are the only ones at home. Her father was hit by a beam a year ago, and he is still unable to move. The housework is all taken care of by Qing He alone."

Speaking of this, Duan Wen's tone added a bit of sympathy: "Who knows that this year's spring drought, the crops at home are growing extremely poorly, and her father didn't want to drag her daughter down, so he bit his tongue and killed himself. Qing He had no choice but to leave his hometown and come to the capital. It just happened that Lord Hou was recruiting people, so he entered the mansion."

Duan Yange nodded after hearing this, and asked again: "Have you sent someone to check it out?"

"I've checked it out. The master specially asked someone to go to Duanzhou to check it. There's nothing wrong with it."

Duan Yange frowned, which meant that Qing He had nowhere to go now, and it was obviously not advisable to rashly send her out of the mansion.

"Go down first." Duan Yange waved his hand to signal Duan Wen to leave.

In the current situation, Old Man Duan is obviously determined to be cruel and will not compromise easily. It is impossible to let Qing He stay in the mansion. This matter is really a dilemma.

And Old Hou Ye Duan, who was sipping tea leisurely in the bedroom, smiled blindly when he heard the news Duan Wen gave him.He even hummed a little tune that he listened to in Jinxiu Garden the day before yesterday.I secretly thought about when I would go to Xiangfu to see the old man Shangguan and tell him about it.

The old butler saw that the old man was happy, and he was happy too. Duan Yange was the one who watched him grow up. To be honest, he was no less worried about Duan Yange's marriage than Old Duan Houye. It's just that although he has old qualifications, he is still a servant after all. Worry about the master's affairs.Seeing that things have made some progress now, it is natural to have fun with my master.

The two of them laughed happily, but Duan Yange was painstaking. He couldn't tell the old man directly about his liking for men, otherwise it would be the same thing whether he would be beaten or not.

All he can do now is to make the old man realize this tactfully, but he never thought that the opportunity would come so soon.
