Chapter 141: Success (2)
Ruxiu smiled confidently and said: "Don't worry, Mrs. Tai, we grew up together, the concubine Rudong knows herself better, Rudong has no relatives except for a useless aunt, she will definitely come to us, I'm afraid that Yin Zhiruo will really betray her far away." "Now Yin Zhiruo, she is really a little unsupportive.
Mrs. Qiu waved her hand: "Don't worry about this, I will let people know about the Ya Po in the entire Los Angeles City." "Yin Zhiruo buys people from other places, and if you sell one or two people, you won't also go to other places, right?
Ruxiu nodded: "Then there will be no problem." In fact, she hoped in her heart that this was the result, and the Hou Mansion would be able to buy Rudong back from Ya Pozi. First, she herself is still a slave, if Ru Dong can really redeem herself and cooperate with the Hou Mansion as a free body, she has enough superiority there? Second, in that case, Ru Dong will definitely hate Yin Zhiruo and be grateful to her and the Hou Mansion of Qingyuan, wouldn't she be even more desperate?
Mrs. Qiu seemed to see Ruxiu's thoughts: "If this matter is done well, you will be the great hero of our Qiu family, and when the time comes, I will be the master to return your deed to you, and you will be a good concubine in the future, and you don't have to call yourself a concubine or a cheap concubine in front of the Xu family." Speaking of which, you grew up in the General's Mansion since you were a child, and you are afraid that your knowledge, rules and other things are no worse than her as a businesswoman. β
Ruxiu was overjoyed, and hurriedly got up and saluted Mrs. Qiu: "Thank you, Mrs. Tai! Mrs. Tai is the lucky star of the concubine and the child in the womb, and the concubine will honor Mrs. Tai for the rest of her life." "She really made the right move to curry favor with Mrs. Tai!
After embroidering into the mansion, although he was detained in the small courtyard at first, because he was willing to take care of the mother-in-law and the little maid around him, it didn't take long to sort out the various subtle relationships between relatives and friends in the Hou Mansion and even outside the mansion. At that time, she decided to avoid Ji and Qiu Yanran. gradually curry favor with Ke Qiaoqiao and cling to Mrs. Tai.
I thought this process would take a long time, but I didn't expect God to help her. The Ji family was actually sent to the family temple because of collusion with the mountain bandits, and Qiu Yanran lost her biggest support. I don't like Mrs. Tai, but it is much quieter, and I am not interested in tossing her to make clothes. If embroidery won Qiu Yiran's favor, no longer trapped in the Begonia Courtyard for needlework, with a lot of time and freedom, he soon climbed up to Mrs. Tai, and even was able to assist Mrs. Tai to take care of the feed, and now in the Hou Mansion there is really the momentum and treatment of "half a master".
Because I help Mrs. Tai housekeeper. Even though the silver and account books were in the hands of Mrs. Tai, Ruxiu still keenly discovered that the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion was strong and middle-class, and it was almost beyond her means, so it was no wonder that she had been tightening her expenses. Not to mention the aunts and concubines, it is Qiu Yanran, the girl's food, clothing, housing and transportation, in Ruxiu's opinion, in many aspects, it is not as good as the level of her, the big girl, when she was in the general's mansion in the capital.
One day, when I was using dim sum, I was eating the old-fashioned honey bean cake made by the chef of Qingyuan Hou's Mansion, and Ruxiu suddenly remembered a snack. Dim sum pastries are now a must-buy snack for the wealthy and wealthy families in Los Angeles and even the surrounding areas, although she has only tasted a small piece of cake. But it is unforgettable, soft and sweet. Of course, she tasted it when she was in Meizhuang, in the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion. I heard that only Qiu Yiran and her cousin Ke Qiaoqiao can eat one or two pieces every few days, and Mrs. Tai privately asked people to buy them back, and they went to the private account, Qiu Yanran cried once for this, to no avail, and was scolded by the old marquis.
Ruxiu had a stirring in her mind at that time, and thought of calculating Rudong, Rudong has liked to tinker with food in the small kitchen since she was a child, and she made snacks and cakes. When the time comes, the pastry shop will increase the income of the Hou Mansion, and her position in the Hou Mansion will be more stable? Mrs. Tai and Qiu Yiran. Even the old marquis will pay attention to her a little.
Mrs. Hou Xu Yuanniang will enter the house at the end of the year, and she is the wife of the concubine and the second grade. With the support of her mother's family and a rich dowry, she is not crushed to death as a cheap concubine in the Hou Mansion? It is not impossible to be sold directly by Xu Yuanniang. However, if there are several big masters of the Hou Mansion, especially Mrs. Tai and Qiu Yiran, it will not be so easy for Xu Yuanniang to pinch her at will.
Sure enough, she told Qiu Yiran about her thoughts, and Qiu Yiran gently hugged her and kissed her twice, feeling that she was such a virtuous helper who was dedicated to him and the Hou Mansion, and reported the matter to Mrs. Tai. Mrs. Tai and Qiu Yiran both said that in the future, when the dim sum shop pΓΉ opened, she would assist Mrs. Tai in charge, and 10% of the store's income would be her private room. Of course, it is also up to her to be responsible for whether Rudong can make more novelty pastries, so that the Qiu family's shop can surpass dim sum and continue to make profits.
Now, things are just a little eyebrow-raising, and Mrs. Tai gave her the promise of removing slavery and becoming a good concubine. With her understanding of Mrs. Tai, she will definitely not like a strong daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law, but Xu Yuanniang took care of a few shops independently at the age of twelve or thirteen, and I am afraid that her personality and methods are not strong. What's more, judging from Ke Qiaoqiao's triumphant words and attitude unintentionally, I'm afraid that Mrs. Tai is waiting to turn the dowry property brought by Xu Yuanniang into this cousin's future dowry, right?
As for how to "transform" and how to fight openly and secretly, we will wait and see. She believes that Xu Yuanniang is too busy to take care of herself, so she shouldn't have the heart to deal with her, right? And whether the old lady needs an assistant or uses her clearly, she will definitely properly defend and favor her.
Ruxiu is very confident in herself, Xu Yuanniang is just a merchant girl, although she is shrewd, but she wants to be qualified as Mrs. Hou Ye and help Qiu Yiran, I am afraid that there is no other ability except for the silver. When Qiu's pastry shops are all over Daying, she can not only continue to give advice to him like now, but also earn back a lot of money for Qiu Yiran, which is more important?
When she was in the capital, she liked to hear the story of the Queen Mother the year, and has always taken the current Queen Mother as an example, the Queen Mother was just an inconspicuous concubine in her mother's family, and she was stunned to get rid of the main palace with a strong background, surpassing a large number of concubines who were higher than her in grade, appearance, and background, and finally sat on the highest position. So, as long as you dare to think and be smart enough, nothing is impossible!
Ke Qiaoqiao saw that Ruxiu's eyes were shining, and her fair skin was slightly pink and glowing because of excitement, and she pouted: "It's just a good concubine, isn't it still a concubine? Is it worth your excitement? Besides, what kind of slave is Rudong is still in Meizhuang, are you really so successful? If you can't do this, you are still a slave and a concubine." "Her skin is naturally dark and rough, and she has spent a lot of money on conditioning, but the effect has not been satisfactory, and she is the most unpleasant. If it weren't for the embroidery's acquaintance and humble status, she wouldn't want to see the embroidery dangling in front of her eyes.
Ruxiu's slightly drooping eyes crossed a trace of disgust, and when she raised her head, she smiled gently: "Don't worry, cousin, the concubine has an eighty percent chance of winning," This is still polite. (To be continued) R466
