But at first glance, he really didn't recognize Xifeng.

Xifeng's facial features were originally very heroic, but now he has long eyebrows and sideburns, and his lips are red and dazzling, I don't know how to draw those Danfeng eyes, and the corners of his eyes that were originally raised seem to become more slender and flying, the more Jia Lian looks closely, the more he loves it in his heart. Look at her today, combing a cloud updo, wearing an orange embroidered silver peacock brocade robe, covered with a pure white mink fur without a trace of variegation, and a long pearl tassel hangs down at the top of the left side of the cloud bun and is straight to the shoulder, and the end is rich and noble, like a fairy concubine. Just looking at this outfit is enough to make the servants in the house prostrate and bow.

The more Jia Lian looked at it, the more he liked it, waved his hand to let the maid out, and pulled Xifeng, who was about to go out, to sit down.

Xifeng couldn't cry or laugh: "What are you going to do?" Feng'er has something important to do today. The time is coming, and we can't afford to delay. Otherwise, I won't be able to stand on my own, how can I convince the public? ”

Jia Lian pressed her shoulder and let her sit in front of the dresser, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, there is still a tea time, how can there be any reason for you to go out and wait for the slave?" You're dressed up everywhere today, but there's one thing missing. Jia Lian said and began to turn over Xifeng's makeup.

Ordinary people should start rummaging through the top drawer, but Jia Lian came from the bottom one, and when he pulled it out, he saw something wrapped in red silk.

Xifeng was shocked in his heart, and secretly said that he had forgotten about it in a daze, so he quickly took out the book of Twelve Palaces Spring and stuffed it into the cabinet next to him.

Jia Lian looked at Xifeng thoughtfully: "What is it, take it to the master and take a look." ”

Xifeng hurriedly closed the cabinet door and pulled Jia Lian to sit down in front of the dresser: "Ye Fang just said that Feng'er's makeup is still missing, what is missing, you can say it quickly." And so changed the subject.

Jia Lian raised his eyebrows, seeing that Xifeng was a little weak-hearted, he was quite proud in his heart, and he guessed what it was, thinking that his daughter-in-law was about to go out to rectify the maid and mother-in-law, and he was about to enter the palace on an errand, so he decided to let Xifeng go for the time being.

"There is still a lack of a Huadian, and if you stick another Huadian in the center of your eyebrows, my Feng'er will be more beautiful and look more imposing." Jia Lian began to turn over makeup again.

"It's all here, which one is it?" Xifeng hurriedly opened the middle drawer, which was full of flowers, all kinds of shapes.

Jia Lian chose a few, and then looked at Xifeng's makeup and clothes today, and chose a small orange flower like a beam of flames, which was not as big as the nail of his little finger. took it out and put it in the palm of his hand and sighed, then tried his best to get close to Xifeng, and gently pressed it on Xifeng's eyebrows.

"Are you alright?" Xifeng saw that he didn't make the next move after pressing it, and couldn't help but ask carefully. Jia Lian was too close to her at the moment, and her exhaled breath made her cheeks and neck tickle.

"Alright." Jia Lian spoke softly, but the simple two words were full of too many other emotions, unspeakable bewitchment, and Xifeng's ears were a little itchy when he heard it. Xifeng just wanted to open her mouth to say something, but she didn't want her lips to be covered by two soft things in the next moment, and her whole body was crispy and numb like an electric shock, which made her mind empty in an instant, forgetting all her movements, and forgetting what she wanted to say.

Xifeng's heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably, but it seemed that she had forgotten to breathe, and after Jia Lian's lips were on her lips, there was no next move, and the two of them stuck together like this, squinting slightly, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

Suddenly, Jia Lian seemed to be blessed to the soul, his lips opened slightly and took Xifeng's lower lip, stretched out his tongue and licked it gently. The soft touch made the heartbeat of both of them miss half a beat. Knowing the taste of the marrow, he slowly began to toss and suck, tasting the delicious taste in his mouth, and then sank into it, forgetting what time was.

"Grandma, it's time." Mama Qian's voice sounded outside the house, reminding Xifeng that it was time to get down to business.

Xifeng suddenly came back to her senses, pulled out in an instant, panting slightly, her chest rose and fell and looked at Jia Lian, she knew that she was falling step by step.

Jia Lian was very disappointed, and couldn't understand why the time of a cup of tea passed so quickly, and the delicacy had just been eaten, and before she had time to taste it, she was interrupted by Mama Qian. Stretched out his hand and stroked Xifeng's cheek gently, and the corners of his mouth rose and said softly: "Wait for the master to come back in the evening." After that, he looked in the mirror and wiped the lipstick on his lips with a handkerchief, and then stretched out his finger and gently touched Xifeng's lips: "Remember to touch up your makeup, it's time for you to enter the palace." After that, Jia Lian got up and put on a thick dark coat and went out.

Xifeng looked in the mirror, quickly replenished the lipstick, cleaned up his mood and straightened his clothes, and pushed the door out. Dealing with domestic slaves is an uphill battle. In half a month, she arranged the task for the marrying people, and they completed it very well, and collected a lot of information about the slaves of the big house. Whoever fills his own pockets, who privately withholds the monthly money of the unwieldy maid, who talks about the master behind his back, and says something unclean, one by one, the dowors inquired about it and reported it to Xifeng, and Qing'er Cui'er wrote it down one by one.

Xifeng walked to the door, stood on the inside of the threshold, slightly lifted a thick curtain, and Ping'er, who had already been guarding the door, cleverly opened the curtain. Xifeng stepped out and glanced at the sky, it was just now, and the sky was very dark. A gust of wind blew, and Xifeng gathered the big one, and the weather was even colder. The sky was so dark that it looked like it was about to snow.

I was thinking that the sky was already falling below zero.

The corners of Xifeng's mouth suddenly curled, the sky is beautiful, this kind of weather is really suitable for remediating domestic slaves.

It was the darkest day the servants of the Great House had ever lived since their errands.

In the center of the corridor has been placed Xifeng's seat, foot pedal, Western clock, two coffee tables, the right side of the middle is the tea cup, the tea inside is steaming, a white porcelain vase is placed in one corner, and the red plum that has been blooming has been inserted. On the left side of the table were ledgers and a thick stack of recently collected information and the information of all the housekeepers since her housekeeper, and when each person came to her yard every day to reply, all of them remembered clearly. There was also a small piece of red silk spread out on the coffee table, and three thin knives were separated from the red silk. The mothers-in-law stood a little far away in the courtyard, and they couldn't see this thing clearly. On the west side of her chair there is a small table and a small stool with paper, pen and ink on it, and a charcoal basin is specially placed next to the table to prevent the ink from drying out.

Xifeng was very satisfied, and smiled at Mama Qian and the four big girls. Mama Qian and the others hurriedly helped Xifeng sit down, straightened the hem of her clothes, and gave Xifeng a delicate hand stove before standing in their respective positions. Xifeng smiled: "Add four more braziers under the corridor, and save you from being cold." She was holding a stove and surrounded by a big man, but the grandmother and the maid were standing dryly, and Xifeng was reluctant to let them suffer from the cold.

Let's say that although most of the servants in the big house are cheating and cheating, there are also some people who are well-behaved, such as at this time, in addition to her companion room, there are also two mothers-in-law who have come to the courtyard. Xifeng remembered these two mothers-in-law, they came on time every day and were never late. These days, she also asked the dowives to collect information about the three mothers-in-law, knowing that these three people are often bullied by others. One is called Wang Sanjia, a second-class maid who used to serve her late serious mother-in-law, and later married a small servant in the house, and she is only now a mother-in-law who is not reused. The other is Hu's second daughter-in-law, who is not the wife of any wife, nor is she a child born in the Fuzhong family, she was bought later, and she has been quite excluded, and her life is not good.

Regardless of their ability, it is very good that these two people can come to her "hands-off shopkeeper" courtyard on time every day to order their meals. Xifeng was determined to promote them.

Wang San's family and Hu's second daughter-in-law came today, I thought that I would only talk back to Mama Qian, and then I could leave after getting Xifeng's reply, but I didn't want to be arranged by Mama Qian in the courtyard and stood up and waited first. At this time, seeing Xifeng making such a grand appearance, they glanced at each other, and they knew that Xifeng must have made a big move today, so he hurriedly stood up seriously. Even though it started to snow, it didn't make them move. Although they also came to ask for instructions today, because Xifeng didn't speak, they didn't dare to speak rashly. They had already seen that the second grandmother Lian who was sitting upright above was not as amiable as she had been before. Now the two of them only dare to think about what they have done unruly recently.

Xifeng saw that their patience was good, and his heart was even more satisfied. Mama Qian had already sat down behind the small table, picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the prepared note, and handed it to Ping'er. Ping'er took the note, walked over and handed it to Wang's third daughter-in-law and Hu's second daughter-in-law respectively, and asked them to stand in a row in the order they arrived.

Wang's third daughter-in-law and Hu's second daughter-in-law hurriedly stood up in order, and asked Ping'er in a low voice: "Dare to ask Miss Ping, what is the second grandmother today?" ”

Ping'er smiled: "Sisters-in-law, just stand, ask later, you just have to tell the truth, grandma is a person with clear rewards and punishments, sisters-in-law don't worry." ”

Wang's third daughter-in-law and Hu's second daughter-in-law heard this, and they really haven't done anything unruly since Xifeng got married.

Then a few people came, and when they saw the situation in the courtyard, they were a little confused. In the past, Grandma Lian never ordered it here, but what's wrong with it today? Before the time of tea, the second grandmother Lian sat under the porch, dressed in a luxurious manner, and looked at the makeup, and didn't dare to look at her anymore after just one glance.

British? Aggressive? Ruthless? The mother-in-law didn't know what words to use to describe the feeling that Xifeng gave people at this time, it seemed that either one was appropriate, but none of them were appropriate.

Xifeng didn't speak, as if she was a little bored, so she asked Cui'er to come into the house and bring her a small copper fire flute to stir the ashes in the hand stove for a while. A few mothers-in-law were about to speak, but suddenly saw Mama Qian, who was sitting behind the table under the corridor, writing a few words, and then Ping'er took a few small notes and handed them to them.

"Grandma's orders today, can you reply now?" A few mothers-in-law grabbed Ping'er.

Ping'er still smiled: "Sisters-in-law, stand in order, and wait for grandma to talk about anything." ”

"When is Grandma going to speak?"

Ping'er smiled and left without replying.

The later mothers-in-law suddenly became a little angry, and there was one who was usually used to being strong in front of everyone, and he took a step over to hold Ping'er and say a few words. Xifeng had already taken in all the qiē, and her ears were extremely sensitive, and what Ping'er said to her mother-in-law could not hide from her. Squinting slightly, Qing'er hurriedly bowed her head: "Back to grandma, that's Wang Erbao's family, and it's the younger sister of Wang Shanbao's wife's housemate." ”

Xifeng nodded, already keeping this person in mind.

The Wang Erbao family swept her face because she felt that Ping'er didn't finish talking to her, so she wanted to grab Ping'er and say a few words to her to save face, but she didn't want to suddenly feel a sharp gaze rushing straight towards her. Wang Erbao's family hurriedly withdrew his hand, and when he looked up and saw that it was Xifeng squinting at her, he panicked in his heart, and hurriedly returned to his place and stood up. Then I realized that I realized later: How did this kind second grandmother suddenly become so fierce and evil?

Xifeng saw that she was honest, so she didn't care anymore, and took a sip of the teacup, which was still the taste she liked. Qing'er was mainly responsible for Xifeng's tea at this time, and as soon as the tea was cold, she quickly changed it. Ping'er was responsible for distributing the notes written by Mama Qian to the mothers-in-law. All the mothers-in-law basically knew a few simple words, and after whispering to each other, they knew that this note was written when they came to Xifeng's courtyard. Everyone gradually guessed that Xifeng was afraid that he was going to make a fuss about this, and it was estimated that the latest one who came would be opened.

I was very happy to come early, but at the same time, I didn't have a good face. Because it was very cold and snowing today, the earlier you came, the longer you stood in this courtyard, and before the mother-in-law arrived, Xifeng would not speak. Therefore, as soon as the later mothers-in-law entered the door, they were greeted by the sharp eyes of the mothers-in-law who came in front. In this icy and snowy world, who wants to stand in the yard and freeze?

Xifeng has excellent patience, half an hour has passed, and the mother-in-law has not yet arrived, and her face does not show any impatience. The mother-in-law in the underground couldn't stand it anymore, they were cold and hungry, and it was still snowing today, which was really difficult.

Finally, the last two mothers-in-law came late, and it was none other than Wang Shanbao's family and Fei's mother-in-law. These two people are Mrs. Xing's companions, relying on Mrs. Xing to be Xifeng's mother-in-law, and Xifeng is very kind on weekdays, so they both came very late. Wang Shanbao's family and Mrs. Fei are not decent people in the entire Rong Mansion, but they have face in the territory of the big house. Most of the mothers-in-law in the big house have to look at her face. Mrs. Fei and her are both Mrs. Xing's companions, and the two of them are in a nest of snakes and rats, and they bully other servants, such as Wang San's daughter-in-law and Hu's second daughter-in-law. At this moment, the mothers-in-law of the big house are standing on the east side of the courtyard, lined up, and the two of them are a little strange.

However, they are used to showing off on the boundaries of the big house on weekdays, and they rely on Mrs. Xing's support, so no matter what the reason is, they only walked forward side by side, and they actually walked to the front of the team.

Wang Shanbao's so-so-so salute, smiled and said: "Second grandma, I'm here to tell you,"

"Shut up!" Qing'er shouted loudly, startling Wang Shanbao's family and Fei Pozi, and the rest of the people also cheered up.

Fei Pozi was impatient: "What is this young girl?"

"Shut up!" Qing'er shouted again: "Grandma hasn't opened her mouth yet, how can you have a reason to speak?" Do you not know the rules of the house, or do you not know how to be an errand? ”

"Girl, don't want to say these things, we're here to talk back to grandma, and we'll leave when we're done." Wang Shanbao's family was angry. Mama Qian had already written a note for the two of them, and Ping'er hurriedly handed it over to them separately, and then immediately returned it.

Fei Pozi looked at it, looked back at everyone again, and saw that everyone had a note in their hands, and they didn't understand what was going on for a while. Seeing Xifeng slightly bowing her head and playing with the bracelet on her wrist, Fei Pozi thought about Xifeng's previous kindness, and thought that her backer was Mrs. Xing, so she boldly asked, "What does this mean by the second grandmother?" Why not let us take it seriously and just give us a note? ”

Xifeng raised her head, her slender fingers tapped lightly twice on the coffee table, and Mama Qian understood, and made a color to the two powerful mothers-in-law who came to marry, and the two quietly walked to the door and covered the door. After the arrangement was completed, Xifeng looked at Fei Pozi and Wang Shanbao's family again, and smiled at the corners of his mouth: "Ten slaps per person." ”

"Second grandma, why! You can't slap our mouths for no reason, we are my wife's dowry, and if you do this, you will slap your wife in the face. Wang Shanbao's family was incredulous.

Xifeng still kept smiling, and four brides-in-law had come up to catch Wang Shanbao's family and Fei Pozi, and then Qing'er and Cui'er walked over together, and opened the bow left and right, "Pap, papa, pap" After the three loud slaps, Qing'er asked expressionlessly: "Do you know why you were slapped?" ”

The two who were beaten were all frightened and didn't know how to reply, but they finally knew why Xifeng's dowry was here today, and they actually came to serve as a thug for Xifeng.

It's just that the two don't know why they were beaten.

Xifeng was not interested in watching them be beaten, and reached out to take the teacup and wanted to drink tea again, but found that Ping'er, who had replaced Qing'er who had beaten people, was in a daze, and seeing that her face was a little unbearable, Xifeng couldn't help frowning. Suddenly, I remembered that in the original work, the subordinates of Rongguofu said that Ping'er was kind and treated people very well.

Xifeng's mind turned slightly, and he hooked his hand at Ping'er. Ping'er came back to her senses, hurriedly bowed her head, listened to Xifeng's instructions, was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the mother-in-law below, and finally her heart passed.

At this time, Wang Shanbao's family and Mrs. Fei had just been slapped ten times, but they were still accused by the mother-in-law, and their faces were full of horror. Qing'er Cui'er has returned to Xifeng's side.

"Do you know why you got slapped?" Ping'er walked over and asked the two who were beaten with a cold face.

Seeing that they were still shaking their heads in horror, Ping'er seemed to have chosen Wang Erbao's daughter-in-law among the mothers-in-law with a finger, which was the younger brother and sister of Wang Shanbao's daughter-in-law.

"Tell me why these two people were slapped." Ping'er looked at Wang Erbao's family.

Wang Erbao's family slowly vacated the column, looked at Xifeng above, thought about it and said slowly: "Because they are late?" ”

Ping'er frowned: "But there are other reasons?" Seeing Wang Erbao's shaking his head, Ping'er immediately made a color to the bride-in-law, and two people came over to restrain Wang Erbao's family.

"If you don't know it, you're partakers with them." Ping'er reached out and "snap, snap, snap......" and also slapped her ten times, and said angrily while beating her: "You don't even know why you were beaten, it can be seen that you don't understand the rules, this is Rongguo Mansion, grandma is a serious granddaughter-in-law, and the housekeeper grandma personally appointed by the old lady can't tolerate your presumptuousness." "If these people are smarter, why do she need to hit people? I don't even know why I was beaten, it's really hateful, and such a person should be sold.

After beating Wang Erbao's family, and then looking at Wang Shanbao's family, Ping'er pointed at their noses with a cold face: "Since you don't know, we will sue you." Our grandmother is a serious master in this house, the serious daughter-in-law of the lord and the wife, carried in from the gate of the Rongguo Mansion, and worshiped the second master in the Rongxi Hall, and the old lady personally assigned the housekeeper grandmother. You guys are going on, everyone else is standing well, are you blind and can't see? Grandma didn't speak yet, you spoke first, it's not the same to do a salute, do you say you're wrong! Should I fight or not! ”

As the saying goes, a good man doesn't suffer a loss in front of him, Wang Shanbao's family was beaten to the point that Venus was reprimanded by Ping'er, and then looked at Xifeng, who was sitting in the middle of the corridor, squinted slightly, and suddenly was so frightened that his soul was almost gone, so he hurriedly confessed: "It should be beaten, it should be beaten, we were wrong, we knew it was wrong, and I begged grandma for forgiveness." ”

Xifeng glanced at Mama Qian again, and saw that she had already written their first accusation, so she asked Qing'er to take the paper and ink clay, and asked the two to press their handprints on the first article first, and settle the accounts one by one. Wang Shanbao's family and Mrs. Fei had already confessed the first charge of not going through the housekeeper's grandmother in front of everyone, and they couldn't press it, and they had to press it for fear of being beaten again.

Seeing that the two of them pressed their handprints, Ping'er, who was still standing at the front of the team, was not angry: "What are you still standing here, you are the latest to come, stand at the back." The two of them hurriedly went to the back and stood at the back. The two of them saw that the two of them were very close to the door at this time, although the door was closed, but there was no latch, and there should be great hope to run out to find Mrs. Xing for help. Otherwise, look at Xifeng's scene today, I will give them ten slaps as soon as I come, but I am afraid that if Xifeng finds a hair to do it again, they will have to give half a life. But as long as you run out and find Mrs. Xing, you will be safe.

The two exchanged a few words in a whisper, and decided to slip away while Xifeng was not paying attention. Only Xifeng's hearing is really good, he has already heard the words of the two, and he has already planned to use the two of them to scare everyone again, so he deliberately yawned and made a lack of interest, and then always lowered his head and neither looked at the people below nor spoke.

Wang Shanbao's family and Mrs. Fei both felt that this was a great opportunity, so they ran away. Xifeng had already heard their movements, and looked up at their backs with a sneer.

Wang Shanbao's family suddenly felt that there seemed to be a cool gaze behind him, and when he looked back, he saw Xifeng staring at the two of them. But the run has already run, there are still a few steps to go, you can't give up, as long as you run out, you can find Mrs. Xing to vent their anger for them. Xifeng sneered, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead, these two people would never be left behind. Estimating the distance, when Wang Shanbao's house was still two or three steps away from touching the door, Xifeng picked up a flying knife on the coffee table, got up and shook his arm violently, and the flying knife flew straight out, bringing a sound of breaking the air, and the next moment it was inserted into the wooden door with a "bang", and the blade of the knife was still trembling rapidly.

Wang Shanbao's family and Mrs. Fei, who were just about to stretch out their hands to open the door, were stunned at the time, and then looked back and saw Xifeng smiling at them, and the two of them collapsed directly on the spot with weak legs.

It turns out that this second grandmother Lian has such good martial arts, isn't she not good at eyesight? Isn't she very kind? The soft and weak girl in the back house doesn't learn knitting, what kung fu does the female red learn? It's really life-threatening, if the flying knife is a little off, I'm afraid it will be pierced on them, and the paralyzed two people looked at Xifeng and had no strength to escape. fell into the hands of this powerful second grandmother Lian, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape.

The bride-in-law had already arrived, dragged the two back, and unceremoniously threw them directly at the end of the line.

Xifeng shook his head and sat down slightly sideways, his chin was slightly raised, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he glanced at everyone, and everyone who looked directly felt cold in their hearts. The action of throwing off the clothes, the flying corners of the robes, and the eyes as sharp as knives, the hearts of everyone who watched trembled.

Qing'er, Cui'er, Xi'er, Ping'er, and the four girls took a step forward at the same time, and said in unison: "Who else wants to run, and who wants to move the rescuers, just go." Everyone was shocked again, in the past, they looked at these four girls beautiful and kind, but today they realized that they were all wolves in sheep's clothing, and they were not soft at all.

Wang's third daughter-in-law knelt down directly: "The slave and maid don't dare, and the slave and maid won't do this, ask the second grandmother to admonish." ”

Hu's second daughter-in-law also quickly knelt down: "Ask the second grandmother to give a lecture." The two of them had never done anything out of order, and their hearts were calm at this time.

Everyone knelt down in fear: "Ask the second grandmother to admonish." ”

Xifeng's slender fingers knocked on the table a few times, and said with a smile: "The lecture is exempt, I have already lectured since the day of my housekeeper." Today, I'll just talk about how you all worked on errands. ”

Everyone was miserable in their hearts, and they didn't know what was waiting for them next, so they just begged this second grandmother not to worry enough.
