When Mother Yang heard the words of the third lady, she thought about what Jingrui's family said just now, and she always felt that something was wrong.

But now that the third lady is by Yan Wanru's side, she doesn't dare to say a word.

She thought about it and thought about it, and there was always a sense of foreboding in her heart.

She asked tentatively, "Madam, Miss, how long are we going to stay when we return home this time?" How many things do you have to bring? ”

When Yan Wanru heard this, she also looked at the third lady.

In their hearts, the An family would not be greedy for the little things in their room. Therefore, if the An family doesn't plan to let them come back, then the things in this room will naturally have to be loaded with them.

The third lady said casually: "It's not that you won't come back, and you don't need to bring too many things, just as usual." ”

Yan Wanru and Yang's mother were relieved, and Yang's mother cleaned up her things according to the things she had returned to Yan's house in the past.

The third lady didn't leave, she asked Su Xin to go back and pack their things.

In this way, until everything was packed up, the third lady took Yan Wanru to kowtow to the county lord of Annan and others.

Yan Wanru finally got into the carriage of Hui Yan's family.

Because of the limited space in the carriage, Yanwan is like a mother Yang, and the three ladies are the same.

Mother Yang smiled: "It's still Miss has a way, the slave looked at the appearance of the Jingrui family, and thought that she couldn't come back this time." ”

Yan Wanru smiled and said: "My aunt is responsible for everything." ”

On the other carriage, Su Xin looked at the third lady in a daze, and said worriedly: "Madam, let's cheat Miss Cousin out like this, okay?" Those objects were given to Miss Biao by the county lord and the ladies over the years. ”

The third lady still looked out the window blankly, and said coldly: "You also said that those were given by the An family, and now, the An family will take it back." ”

She had those two account books with her, and if her brother and sister-in-law asked, she would have to talk about them properly.

As for Yan Wanru's things, don't forget, she also made up a hundred taels of silver before.

***

After a group of maids and mothers-in-law in Hongxiang Garden, Dong Ruyi called the eight mothers-in-law of the An family to talk.

Dong Ruyi said: "In the past half a year, the eight of you have followed me, both the Cao Gang and Annan, and you have worked hard. ”

The eight of them looked at each other, then knelt down and said, "Slaves and maids don't work hard. ”

Dong Ruyi said: "Now, when you return to Anjia, I just want to ask, do you have anything you want to stay, after all, your family is here." ”

All eight of them were silent, and they all looked at the ground, and they all became a little frightened.

Dong Ruyi said: "I don't know which of you went to report the news, and I don't want to know, but this is the first and last time."

Therefore I ask you, if there is anything to stay today, I will find an excuse to let you go; If you still want to follow me, then from today onwards, there will be no old master, and you will only have me as a master in your eyes in the future. ”

The room was silent, and Dong Ruyi was not in a hurry, she sat quietly and drank tea.

After a cup of tea, some people's foreheads are covered with beads of sweat.

Mrs. Ding gritted her teeth and kowtowed, "The slave is willing to follow Miss." ”

When she was on the boat, she saw Dong Ruyi getting along with the people around her, and she was envious. She knew that today was her only chance, and the reason why she hesitated was because of her reluctance to give up on her family.

Mrs. Wang turned her head sideways and secretly glanced at Mrs. Ding, but she didn't say anything.

Dong Ruyi nodded with satisfaction to Mrs. Ding, and continued: "You don't need to worry about your family, I will ask for your family with Mrs. An." Although you will follow me in the future and go away from home, your family will not be separated. ”

Mrs. Ding was overjoyed, and then kowtowed: "Miss Xie's grace." "If you can bring your family, the Dong family is definitely a good place to go.

Mrs. Jiang listened, kowtowed, and said, "The slave and maid are also willing to follow the young lady, and the slave and maid are reluctant to let go of their families." ”

Dong Ruyi smiled slightly and nodded, "I will never treat the people who follow me badly."

But I also said ugly things in front of me, and whoever dares to do those delicate things under my nose will not blame me for cutting the grass and eradicating the roots. ”

Dong Ruyi's words were ruthless without a trace of warmth.

The eight people kneeling on the ground couldn't help but shudder.

They knew that Miss Dong was definitely not just talking, and the eight of them were sent to Jiangning Mansion when Miss Dong was admitted to Xie Yuangong. After more than half a year, they know that Miss Dong is definitely a person who can say and do.

Dong Ruyi's words made Mrs. Wang, who was just about to open her mouth, shut up again.

She is the descendant of the county lord of Annan, and she can go up the knife mountain and go down to the oil pot for the sake of her master, but what about her family? She hesitated.

Seeing this, Mrs. Ding said: "The slave swears with her life and her family, and is willing to swear allegiance to Miss." ”

Seeing this, Mrs. Jiang also swore a poisonous oath.

Dong Ruyi was very satisfied with the two of them, nodded and said, "That's it, just Aunt Ding and Aunt Jiang stay, as for you...

Xiangju, give them their deeds of sale, and give them fifty taels of pension silver. ”

Mrs. Wang and the others were shocked, they hadn't made a decision yet, and their families were all settling down, so what could they do even if they got the deed of sale?

Mrs. Wang kowtowed and said, "Please Miss Rong Nu and the maid are thinking about it." ”

The others prostrated and pleaded in the same way.

Dong Ruyi didn't speak, and got up and left directly.

For Dong Ruyi, she doesn't want everyone, and the people who can stay by her side are all one in a hundred.

As for those who are half-hearted and hesitant, she doesn't want it.

Dong Ruyi asked everyone to wait in Hongxiangyuan, she took Xiangju to the carriage of the An family, and she was going to say goodbye to Mrs. An and the county lord of Annan.

Whether she is here to do business or to visit relatives, she will not say goodbye without saying goodbye.

What's more, she has to give An Jia one last chance, of course, to give herself one more choice.

The people who were staring at the movement of Hongxiang Yuan from a distance had already rushed to Furong Hall at this moment.

Furong Hall is the courtyard of the county lord of Annan, and the county lord of Annan is discussing with Mrs. An at this moment, what kind of price they want to use to keep Dong Ruyi.

When they heard that Dong Ruyi was about to come over and say goodbye, their faces couldn't help but change greatly.

Mrs. An said: "County Lord, did you say that she was dissatisfied with our handling of the matter?" Let's let the third sister-in-law go back to her parents' house! ”

The county lord of Annan waved his hand and motioned to Mrs. An not to say more, she always felt that there was something in it that she didn't know or that she had ignored.

Outside the Furong Hall, Jingrui's family and Xia Yang stood in the courtyard waiting for someone to come.

Xia Yang followed Mrs. An and saw Dong Ruyi from afar, but the Jingrui family hadn't seen it yet.

At this moment, she was thinking in her heart, who this Miss Dong family was.
