Acai's Sky

Chapter 396: The General’s House…

Acai was carried by Li Fanyin to her mother Li Bijun's exclusive residence, which was an exquisite three-courtyard house.

As they walked, Li Fanyin enthusiastically introduced Ah Cai in her arms, "We started renovating this courtyard after we learned about my aunt's divorce."

As she spoke, she pointed to the second-floor attic at the back and continued, "Look at that attic. It was built specifically for you, my little cousin. The entire three-courtyard building is a two-story building with dozens of rooms in total."

Carrying Ah Cai to the third courtyard, Li Fanyin enthusiastically introduced it: "Look here, there are some beautiful flowers and plants in the front yard, and the backyard has been deliberately flattened. This will be where my little cousin practices martial arts from now on."

Li Fange, Li Fanyu and Li Fanyi all looked at Acai with envy. Until now, they can only share a martial arts training ground with their brothers!

At this time, A Cai noticed that there was a small courtyard next to the martial arts training ground in the backyard, so she curiously stretched her head to look over there.

Li Fanyi couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw Ah Cai's cute appearance, and then told Ah Cai: "That courtyard is where Doctor Hu, who treated you, lives."

Ah Cai heard this and exclaimed in surprise: "Huh, Doctor Hu?"

Cousin Li Fanyin nodded, "Doctor Hu will stay at our house this time. He likes to treat you."

Ah Cai shuddered when she heard this. What do you mean he likes to treat her?

When I returned to my room, I saw boxes and cages all over the floor.

The head maid Chunya was leading a group of maids and servants to pack things.

Ah Cai, sit down.

Chunya brought her maids to pay her respects.

Acai knew Chunya, the head maid, and she was the only one known to this group of people.

"The young lady's servants were all locked up. We said we would wait until she woke up before we dealt with her."

Chunya looked at the two head maids and continued, "Several head maids, four second-class maids, and eight third-class maids have all been replaced. They all have some problems."

Chunya introduced Acai's new maid.

The two of them were only fourteen or fifteen years old.

Ah Cai scratched her head. She had never been surrounded by people like this before. It was scary.

I finally understand why the ladies in ancient times took eight steps with one step.

Name the maid?

Ah Cai thought about it for a moment and said, "Let's choose Yuebai and Tubai as the head maids."

"Second-class maids, Zhuqing, Xueqing, Yuanqing, Shiqing..."

"Third-class maids: Yingcao, Taohong, Ziwei, Zitang, Canglv, Congqian, Xiuhong, Chunlan..."

Several cousins ​​were stunned.

Li Fange said, "They're all names of colors? That's easy to remember!"

Ah Cai stretched her neck curiously to look outside the door, and saw a group of people of all kinds standing outside.

Among them are not only some older women, but also some heroic female soldiers.

Seeing this, Li Fanyin summoned these people in.

As soon as these people entered the room, they knelt on one knee and shouted in unison: "Hello, Miss! Greet the Miss!"

Ah Cai saw that the person closest to her was a woman in her thirties, so she quickly stepped forward to help her up and asked with concern, "Sister-in-law, please get up quickly!"

Li Fanyin also stepped forward and introduced Ah Cai, "This is your chief guard, Cai Xinyi."

A Cai looked at these strong and powerful female soldiers with a smile on her face, her heart filled with joy.

She smiled and said to everyone, "I haven't finished cleaning up here yet. I'll give everyone red envelopes later. Everyone will get a share!"

Cai Xinyi looked at the cute little baby Acai and her heart softened.

Especially when she learned that Acai had experienced a life-and-death test, she couldn't help but want to hold her all the time.

Ah Cai turned her head and looked at the captain of the guards in front of her, and asked curiously, "How many female soldiers do you have?"

Guard Captain Cai immediately replied, "Due to legal restrictions, we currently only have over 200 people."

Ah Cai's eyes widened when she heard this number. She was secretly surprised that in the Yu Dynasty, it was actually possible to raise private soldiers!

Ah Cai rolled her eyes and asked quietly, "Can I leave the house?"

Li Fanyi covered his mouth with his hand and replied in a low voice, "As long as you bring your guards, you can go out."

A Cai said solemnly that she understood.

Several cousins ​​left temporarily to do their own things, and they would talk again after dinner in the evening.

A Cai relaxed.

He grabbed Guard Captain Cai and whispered, "Is there any way you can beat someone up in broad daylight without getting caught?"

Madam Cai asked with a smile, "Beat your former aunt, former uncle, and your father?"

Ah Cai blurted out, "How do you know?"

The people around covered their mouths and laughed unrestrainedly.

Captain Cai looked back at them, and everyone immediately became serious and stopped laughing.

She turned around and explained to Ah Cai, "Miss, you are still young. Who could you possibly have a grudge against? Of course, it's the person who hurt you."

Ah Cai pulled her and asked, "Is there any solution?"

If they can't do anything, she will just do it herself at night. It's no big deal.

Madam Cai nodded slightly. "It's no big deal. Just put him in a sack and give him a beating!"

Ah Cai clapped her hands, "Great, let's do it this way, send someone to keep an eye on them, and give them a beating once they come out!"

"Come back after the fight, there's a reward, hehe!"

The female soldiers behind him said, "Yes!"

They haven't fought for a long time, so their daily training doesn't count!

Madam Cai arranged the shifts, with thirty people on each shift, working in three shifts. They patrolled the courtyard and garden, and kept watch at night...

Ah Cai thought of the little green tea girl from the Liu family and quickly greeted Madam Cai.

"Arrange more people to check on Liu Yan's daughter from the Liu family. I want to know why she is so desperate to find the mahogany dressing box..."

Madam Cai understood that everything had to be nipped in the bud. This girl from the Liu family had a big problem.

Ah Cai asked Chunya for two hundred taels of silver and handed it to Madam Cai. "One hundred taels for the man who put the sack on me, and one hundred taels for Dingliu's family..."

"We don't lack hungry soldiers. In a few days, someone will send us silver. We are not short of money!"

A Cai waved her hand and asked them to go down.

Chunya came over and said, "Fifth Miss, you are now ranked fifth in the General's Mansion, and you will be the Fifth Miss in the future."

Ah Cai tilted her face and said, "Don't the Yun family only have two boys? How come I'm ranked fifth?"

Chunya quickly explained, "The Yun family hasn't split up yet. Their Yun Mansion is just a branch! There are still four young ladies in Jinling!"

"Hiss, I thought there weren't many people in the Yun family!" Ah Cai widened his eyes in surprise and muttered to himself.

She rubbed her cheeks while thinking about how to deal with this big family next.

Suddenly, she remembered something and quickly asked Chunya to pack up all the gifts because they needed to be given to her family during dinner in the evening.

Chunya slapped her head and suddenly remembered something important: "Oh, Miss Fifth, your two maids have been sent to the farm by the Madam. Their sons are controlled by Grandma Liu, so they know everything that happens on your side."

Upon hearing the news, Acai's eyes widened. She actually had a nanny?

But if you think about it carefully, how could a young lady in ancient times not have a nanny?

Ah Cai thought for a moment and said firmly, "I don't need a nanny anymore. Let the female soldiers take care of me."

However, Chunya frowned, shook her head and said, "That won't do, Fifth Miss. Managing the maids and handling daily affairs such as entertaining guests and giving gifts all require the guidance of a nanny."

Ah Cai sighed helplessly and finally compromised, "Okay, then we'll just need one nanny, but I have to find a reliable one, and definitely not too many!"

Chunya bowed to Acai and left the room.

After seeing Chunya leave, Ah Cai couldn't wait to carefully pick up the mysterious mahogany dressing box and said to herself, "I want to see what you are..."
