Chapter 096: Favor (One More Requests for the First Order)
When Liao's mother heard her say this, she sighed softly as if she suddenly remembered something, and her serious face just now softened. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
When the people around saw Liao's mother like this, they couldn't help but turn their heads and ears.
What's going on!
Liao's mother has always been fair, with clear rewards and punishments, how did she listen to Maisui's story and immediately change her color?
"You must be unconvinced that I will give you the moon ramp!"
Liao's mother sighed.
Mai Sui heard Liao's mother take the initiative to mention the matter of the monthly silver, and raised her head suddenly. Liao's mother ignored her and went straight down.
"Hey--I also know the situation in your family! The family is old and small, and it is all supported by yourself! It's also a poor child! It's just that rules are rules, and if you don't serve by your master's side now, naturally you can't take the monthly example of a first-class maid like before, otherwise, what do you make other people think?"
Liao's mother had a low voice, and when she said this, she paused.
The soft muttering around was getting louder and louder.
Many people nodded, obviously agreeing with Liao's mother's arrangement, thinking that this was in line with the rules and fair to others.
"This matter is under my control, originally I just mentioned it, after all, Aunt Yang has been pregnant recently, and her identity has become precious, and you have been serving by her side for a few years, so I naturally didn't dare to take the idea without permission, so I went to ask my aunt for advice, and my aunt also agreed!
After Liao's mother said this, there was a look of compassion in her eyes.
It turned out that my aunt agreed!
From the big girl being demoted to the third-class little girl, this is not only a matter of moon silver, but also a matter of face!
The eyes of the people around them fell on Mai Sui's body.
I don't know what mistake this maid has made, so that Aunt Yang can be disgusted with this.
But thinking about the unruliness of this maid just now, and her biting fierce appearance, everyone exchanged glances and showed a look of understanding.
Despite this, there were many people present who were good friends with Mai Sui, knew what Mai Sui was like on weekdays, and she had always been loyal to Aunt Yang, so they spoke for her.
Now Aunt Yang's life is better, but she doesn't think about the old friendship between master and servant, and she tramples the ears of wheat that are suffering with her into the mud, which is really chilling.
Everyone knew the inside story, and they despised Aunt Yang in their hearts.
Mother Liao looked at everyone's expressions, knowing that they must be guessing about the relationship between the master and servant, and she only felt very satisfied when she saw that her goal had been achieved.
As for the inside story at that time, did Aunt Yang agree, and how did she agree, anyway, it is an inexplicable thing, who cares?
Mai Sui was completely stunned on the spot, tears rolling in his eyes, falling down in a flutter.
Although she had just heard Qingping mention it in Qixia Pavilion, she had faintly believed this statement in her heart, but thinking about the relationship between her and Aunt Yang over the years, she had a glimmer of hope in her heart.
Now that Liao's mother confirmed it, she was like being struck by lightning, and she completely lost hope.
Liao's mother's expression became softer and softer, and she whispered to her: "Your mother is seriously ill and has been relying on medicinal herbs to hang her life, and I also know this! The whole family depends on you alone, and I am afraid that the little moon silver is not enough!"
When Liao's mother said this, she pondered.
The people around heard Liao's mother's pity, and their hearts turned a thousand times, and they secretly guessed.
Didn't Liao's mother want to give her money?
Mai Sui also raised her head, nervously expecting.
The reason why she wants to find her aunt today is, in the final analysis, to solve the current predicament!
"So be it!" said Liao's mother.
"Now there is no master in Wuluyuan for the time being, but there are two maids and a mother-in-law left behind, there are not many things, you should be on duty every morning, right?"
Liao's mother asked.
Mai Sui had a faint guess in her heart, thinking that Liao's mother was going to arrange an errand for herself, so she nodded hurriedly.
"In the past few days, in order to arrange the flower banquet, the house has been busy, and there are some people in Chunhui Hall who are short of manpower. You come to Chunhui Hall every afternoon to take shifts! Come to me, temporarily take care of these gold and silver utensils and other items for me, and wait until Aunt Yang gives birth in the future, and move back to Wulu Garden.
Managing gold and silver vessels?
The crowd took a breath.
This is a fat gap, and there are many people vying for this job these days.
Liao's mother has always been faceless in front of the eldest lady and is very valued. Now that she has agreed, it must be certain.
Everyone thought about this, and they cast a lot of eyes on the ears of wheat, which was very unkind.
This little girl is also famous!
When Mai Sui heard Liao's mother say this, she was overjoyed, and she hurriedly fell to the ground, kowtowed, and was grateful to Liao's mother in her heart.
Previously, because Liao's mother was the person next to the eldest wife, Mai Sui always felt that she was like a flood beast, and coupled with the matter of falling moon silver, she was even more resentful of her.
Now that I know the truth and have a series of arrangements for Liao's mother, Mai Sui's hatred for Liao's mother was heavy at the beginning, and how grateful she is now.
Liao's mother glanced at everyone's reactions, and then looked at Mai Sui's teary eyes, and slightly hooked the corners of her lips.
She was finally able to give a satisfactory explanation to the eldest lady.

At this time, in the closed hall of the Ministry of Rites, dozens of knowledgeable officials were working hard and concentrating on marking the examination papers.
This time, it is the test paper of the Jingshifu Examination.
Like the examination, the marking of the Beijing Teacher and Children's Examination also has great particularity, and the officials who mark the papers are all appointed by the Ministry of Rites, and most of them are served by the Hanlin in the court or the Confucian who is in the middle of the court.
Great Qi Wen ruled the world, although there were officials who were awarded officials by virtue of the grace of their ancestors, but most of them were low-grade petty officials, and if they wanted to be promoted to above the third rank, they must be orthodox students from the imperial examination.
And these Hanlin and literary Confucians are just the best among the students who have entered the imperial examination, but there is no shortage of such talents in the court, and there are many people who are knowledgeable.
Therefore, most of the selection of these marking officials is because there are no relatives and protégés among the students who take the examination, so as to prevent favoritism.
However, there are many high-ranking officials and powerful people in Beijing, and how can they all know about the relationships behind their backs? Therefore, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites arranged for two attendants to adopt a shift system to personally supervise the situation of revising the papers, and to reasonably resolve some unexpected situations at the scene of marking the papers.
And the person in charge of supervision today is precisely the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites - Jiang Jinghua.
