Chapter 183: Commands
As soon as Xu walked out of the room, a small smile quickly appeared on his face, but it quickly disappeared. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hong Yan stepped forward to hold her hand, and the master and servant slowly returned to the main room.
Xu sat down on the chair, and Hong Yan caught a glimpse that the magpie and the other girls were not around, so he attached to Xu's ear, told everything that the cuckoo had reported, and asked, "Madam, do you need to order someone to solve that Ah Si?"
Xu Shi blinked: "Tell people to keep an eye on him, see who he has come into contact with, what he has said, what he has done, and don't do anything else for the time being." Our Hou Ye is also naΓ―ve, if he is trapped in the courtyard by me, he will call a servant to deliver the news, pretend to be a ghost, and possibly find someone to rescue him. But he was confined to his home because of the emperor's decree, and who could save him? He should be glad that the emperor did not tell him about this, otherwise he would only be the one who would lose face! At this time, he did not honestly live his little life in the Songfeng Courtyard, and what did he do up and down? The emperor was benevolent and punished him lightly. If he causes trouble again and angers the emperor again, it will be useless for him to regret it!"
Hong Yan comforted softly: "Master Hou doesn't even understand this truth, it's just a little unwilling." That Ah Si, I don't know what he had in mind, so he helped Hou Ye secretly deliver the news. If the lady is kind-hearted and can't bear to embarrass him, then let him know the importance of the matter, know what to do and what not to do. The Hou Ye wants to know about the outside world, or which relatives and friends to communicate with, and the lady is not inconsiderate, but after all, the lady still has to think about the people of this big family, the second master, the third master, and the brothers and sisters, right?"
Xu smiled and patted Hongyan's hand gently: "Good boy, you are usually silent, but you know my mind best." β
Hong Yan smiled and lowered her head: "To be praised by Madame, the slave maid is really fortunate for three lives." β
Xu nodded approvingly, and ordered: "Let's see what Ah Si's temperament is, if he is an ignorant person, find a reason to get rid of him, and if he is far away, he can save trouble, and if he is a sensible person, it is not too late for you to teach him again." β
Hong Yan hurriedly responded.
Xu Shi said again: "You call someone to invite the second grandmother over." Hong Yan answered and went out to call someone. The magpie was the first to come: "What do you have to say, Madame?"
Hong Yan stared at her twice, and then said, "Madame has something to find the second grandmother, you can send someone to Shengyiju for a trip." β
The magpie wanted to ask Xu what he was doing to find Yao, but as soon as Hongyan finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the house, and she could only sip hatefully and went to look for someone.
It didn't take long for Yao to arrive. After entering the hospital, she habitually looked at the magpie waiting under the porch, and asked with a smile unintentionally: "There was such an accident at noon today, and I don't know if Madame has lost her breath?
The magpie saw that there was no one else on the left and right, only Yao and Yulian, so he asked in a low voice: "Madame didn't take a nap." After returning from Mingyuewu, after eating, the third master came to discuss the separation of the family with his wife. As soon as the third master left, the lady went to see the Hou Ye again, and he just came back. With that, they were already in front of the main house.
Yao knew it, nodded to the magpie secretly, and went into the house to greet Xu.
"Sit down. Xu nodded, didn't say anything foreshadowing, and went straight to the point, "At noon, the third master mentioned the matter of splitting the family, and you also heard it." I discussed with the Hou Ye, and I felt that the third master had to move over sooner or later after getting the mansion from the emperor, and he couldn't leave such a big mansion there in vain. Since he wants to move away, it is no different from splitting up the family, which shows that the Holy Will also means this. It's still early now, and there's nothing big in the house, so you hurry up and sort out the accounts, and make a list of all the industries, property, and people in the family, and count one in the public middle school, and another one for each person's private property. The large amount of expenditure is temporarily stopped, and the external accounts that should be paid off should be paid off as soon as possible, so as not to be confused when the three heads of the house sit down to discuss the separation of the family a few days later. β
Yao was stunned for a moment before agreeing, and then asked carefully: "Madam, this is the matter of separation...... Is it really decided?"
Xu Shi said lightly: "Your third uncle opened his mouth, and Master Hou and I agreed, why can't it be decided?"
But then again, it's impossible for the second room to agree. But the long room nodded, and the third room has a holy family, even if the second room does not agree, what can it do? Now the second room is no longer an orphan and a widow, there are officials, there is wealth, but there is no title. But the second room is not angry, and it has to rely on other rooms everywhere, but it has to be a natural thing and annoying to people, who can blame it?
Yao thought of the idleness of the people in the second room since he married into the Chengenhou Mansion, and felt that it was really a good thing to divide the family. She finally managed to hide the smile on the corner of her mouth: "Since it is decided to split up, it is really not a trivial matter." The daughter-in-law will definitely settle the accounts and calculate all the belongings in the house. However, the daughter-in-law has an idea, I don't know what the lady thinks: we have this big mansion in the long house, not to mention the residence after the separation; the third room also has a house given by the emperor, but it takes some effort to send the Xie family; the second room does not have a decent place to live in the city, so I am afraid that after the separation, the second wife will use this as a reason and refuse to move out. It's better to divide the second room into a house when you divide the family. It is best to send someone to clean it in advance, and you can move in at any time, which can be regarded as a worry for the second wife. β
Xu Shi smiled: "This is a good idea, you can just look at it." It's best not to be too small in the house, so as not to be unable to live in the second room. By the way, Aunt Fu and Aunt Zhang won't move away, you have to report to them. β
Yao was stunned: "Isn't Aunt Fu going?" Aunt Zhang didn't follow, she could still understand that her husband Qin Huai had been dead for thirty years, and her only daughter had married early. Staying in the Chengenhou Mansion, there are still rich and quiet days to live. But Aunt Fu is a little different, Qin Bofu is her only grandson, and her grandson has gone out separately, won't she follow? Qin Bofu also wants to support his grandmother, right?
Xu said: "Old Aunt Fu will not follow." It is not anyone in the second room who waits for her and honors her on weekdays. "Aunt Fu's side, in addition to the waiting girl, there is only one Aunt Zhang.
Although Yao didn't quite understand what Xu meant, he still responded. Maybe Old Aunt Fu would not be very happy, but what did it matter? This old lady would never disobey the wishes of the Qin family's housewife. Besides, the Xue family was not respectful to her, just thinking that she had the opportunity to enter the palace every year, so he didn't give her a look, but in order to see her a few times, he ran to the Fugui residence where his son and daughter-in-law lived every day, for fear that if he stayed in the palace all the time, he would meet his mother-in-law in the courtyard next door and be trained by his mother-in-law. Qin Bofu has always been mediocre to this grandmother. Aunt Fu followed their mother and son out of the house, and it may be better to live comfortably in the house.
Yao got the order of his mother-in-law, and quickly agreed, and returned to Shengyiju to prepare to go. She noticed that her mother-in-law, Xu, did not let her discuss it with her concubine Min, which could be seen as the intention of letting her complete this heavy responsibility independently. Perhaps, the mother-in-law has forgiven her and no longer holds grudges against her. Her position in this family has once again been solidified.
This realization made Yao's mood always happy, and even Aunt Fu's side, she personally went over to pass the word. After hearing this, Aunt Fu's expression was very calm, and she didn't seem surprised at all: "It is appropriate to divide the family, this is a matter of time or time." He smiled at the Yao family again, "There are two Hou Ye and two ladies presiding, the second master and the second grandmother are very fair people, and they will not treat the uncle badly, and I have nothing to worry about." I'm old and I don't want to move, so it's good to retire in this house. Dye Xiang also stay with me, she can't get good from the second wife, staying by my side can be regarded as filial piety for the uncle and grandmother. β
Dyeing incense is Aunt Zhang. She used to be a girl called by the second master Qin Huai's house.
Yao Shi nodded when she heard this, it was rare for the old aunt to cooperate so much, and she was also happy to respect the old aunt a little, so she smiled and said some gossip, leaving a few new materials for autumn clothes and the high-quality sandalwood that the two aunts could burn when copying scriptures and reciting Buddha, and left. She has a lot of things to do.
After Yao left, Aunt Fu sat in place and did not move for a long time.
Aunt Zhang slowly walked over to her and sat down opposite her, sighing, "After all, it's still this day." In the past, there were only long rooms and two rooms in the house, and the second room was weak, and the long house wanted to be famous, and it was never possible to divide the family. Now that the third master is back, he is the most holy in the palace, and he said that he wants to divide the family, who else can stop him? This is different from the marquis of the long house, and it is not the second wife who can control it if she sprinkles it. The uncle is also confused, how can he let the second wife offend the elders?"
Aunt Fu said lightly: "He has been close to his mother since he was a child, and he also looks down on me as a grandmother. In that case, why should I worry about him? After all, he is also the nephew of the queen mother, and even if the family is separated, he will not starve to death. As long as he doesn't faint and does something rebellious, he will still be able to enjoy wealth and glory in the future, but it is not as good as the current scenery. His life was ruined on this. He is obviously only the son of the Shuzhi, and he has no father and brother to rely on, but he can only see the glory and scenery of the Chengen Hou Mansion in his eyes, and he thinks that these riches are all his own, he does not know how to improve, he only knows how to drill camps, and he is complacent about his identity as a noble son of the Hou Mansion. When he leaves this Hou Mansion and realizes who he is, maybe he will have a day of progress, right? He is still young, and he does not know the day when he will not be productive?"
Aunt Zhang pursed her lips secretly, feeling a little disapproving. But she didn't say it to her face, Qin Bofu was Aunt Fu's grandson after all. She smiled and asked Aunt Fu: "The material sent by the second grandmother is very good, it is fine and soft to the touch, and the color is also elegant. I'll make you two new clothes, right? On the Queen Mother's birthday, maybe I want to announce your entry into the palace, just at that time. β
