At the beginning of Shen Shichu, the sound of abacus in the old lady's courtyard finally stopped. Sooner than everyone expected. The old lady smiled and said, "Thanks to my uncle's wife, otherwise I would have to be busy until dinner." ”

Yang Anqin was aggrieved for several days, and finally found some ground today, and said with a modest smile: "It's just that there are many people who are easy to do." ”

The old lady said: "I don't like to listen to the humble words, it's not that I destroy the prestige of my family, you are stronger than your sister, I know." "The old lady of the Chen family has a strong personality, but her body is not very strong. The three fathers and sons of the Chen family are all officials outside, and the income from the land and property in their hometown are all directly sent to Hangzhou by fast horse and handed over to Yang Anqin. And the old lady of the Chen family is at most in charge of Jiangxi's small accounts. Someone else's gravewoman......

Yang Anqin said a few words of greeting, a little worried about Chen Gong, for fear that Ting Fang would not be able to control it, and when he saw that he was done, he got up and said goodbye: "I'm not afraid of the old lady's jokes, I'll go and see the demon king of our family." ”

The old lady said, "You all go back and rest." According to today's momentum, we will be able to drive busy. Now the big girl and the third girl can take a hand. Yes, the eldest lady will bring the second girl tomorrow, and closing the account and receiving gifts is a very serious knowledge, and it should be learned. What do you do when you learn that useless needlework? Are you still afraid that our family can't afford to accompany the needlework? ”

I didn't know the situation on the first day, Chen didn't want to bring Tinglan to wrap up, since the old lady spoke, Chen had no choice but to say: "I'll talk to her tonight." ”

The old lady wanted to say a few more words about not letting the little wife watch the child, and thought that Tinglan was also an unsober thing, and even her grandmother didn't know how to tie the knot, and she would suffer even more when she arrived at her mother-in-law's house in the future. His eyes swept to the Qin family, and only brought Ting Xiu. Four concubines, two and a half are stupid! Ting Wu knew that it was not stupid to go home with Tingfang, and she didn't know what to do with so many little wives coming back, and the children she gave birth to were useless. But the child has been born, can it still be stuffed back? I had to say to the Qin family again: "Tomorrow, the six girls will also be brought together, and the school is on vacation, what are you doing at home?" ”

Qin had no choice but to respond, but asked more: "What about the four girls?" ”

The old lady rolled her eyes: "We are not as good as her in settling accounts, so don't worry about her." The seventh girl is still young, let her fourth sister take it. ”

Yue suddenly remembered something again: "It's time to send the monthly money, the two new girls, according to the first-class, right?" ”

"That's natural," the old lady said, "don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, the prince sent it over, it's not good to wronged them." Speaking of King Fu, there is one more thing. The saint chose the young lady of the Yan Zhangyuan family to be the princess of Fu, and there was a post sent by their family. From the third to the fifth day of the fourth month, they will do wine at home, the third day of the new year will invite the clan, the fourth day of the new year will be us, and the fifth day of the new year will be their own home. Yan Zhang's courtyard only has two courtyards, and I am afraid that I will not be able to open it, so I will not go to the chaos. The eldest lady, you take Ting Yao and Ting Fang, and the second wife takes Ting Shan. King Fu comes to our house every day, but he has to explain to Princess Fu. The attitude should be correct, and then ask Ting Fangshan to prepare some gifts. There will be many days to walk around in the future. ”

Yue Shi thought for a while and said: "As the saying goes, poor Hanlin is poor, although he is in charge of the court, the princess's dowry is only afraid that it will be difficult to do. Our family has a lot of clothes, so it's better to send some clothes, which are decent and realistic. Besides, King Caifu sent a self-striking bell, and it was a little disrespectful for us to return it to him. It's better to give the princess a heavier gift. "Although marriage is not marriage, it is a family in the end. It is easier to please the wife than the master, so naturally you have to pay attention to the princess first.

The old lady said, "What you said is very true, I'll think about it again." My uncle is only afraid that she will also give gifts, so let's not be serious. After saying that, he left Yang Anqin to discuss the matter.

In the end, the Ye family is the old lady and the Chen family's housekeeper, and the Yue family is only in charge of some trivial matters. Speaking of the gifts given to the princess by the family, she got up and said goodbye: "The daughter-in-law will go home and see their brother's homework, and come to serve the old lady in the evening." ”

The old lady said: "Go and get busy with your business, it's a tired day, and it doesn't matter if you don't come at night." ”

Yue smiled and accepted the old lady's kindness, but made up his mind to come to greet him in the evening. The Qin family also said goodbye, and the two of them walked out of the courtyard with their daughters.

The Qin family went out and said that they were going to the garden for a walk, and the two of them walked away. Yue Shi had to ask Tingshan: "Have you seen your eldest aunt?" She is faster than an abacus and is a capable person. As a housewife, you don't need to hold an abacus from time to time, but if you can calculate, you can calm the people below and dare not make ghosts, how much work is saved. Ruling vertically is not to ignore things, but to manage the right things and manage the right people. Otherwise, it's all in vain, and I'm tired and half dead, and I can't get a good place. ”

Tingshan was taught. After a few steps, the mother and daughter arrived at the gate of their own courtyard while talking.

The courtyard was not as quiet as it had been imagined, but the voices of several women were heard. The Yue family wanted to go in and see what kind of days they didn't work and were lazy, so they listened to a person: "I just heard from someone outside that Princess Fu has selected the young lady of the Yan Zhangyuan family, and the decree has been issued!" The Yan family wants to set up a wine and treat you! ”

Another person exclaimed, "Is it true? Zhao Niangniang really doesn't like our four girls so much? ”

Someone gloated: "Who likes that kind of daughter-in-law?" It's spicy and indecent. You don't know, she originally wanted to hook the fifth master of the Chen family, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hook up, so she even sent the girl out. is still pretending to be a chaste martyr, saying that how can his own girl be humiliated? The result? I thought I had hooked up with His Royal Highness King Fu, and I didn't even want the fifth master. Now that King Fu has chosen a concubine, look, she will have to go back to find the fifth master! ”

"And that matter?"

"Of course! What are you lying about? The man continued, "How can our young lady be a concubine? Although His Royal Highness King Fu has taken a fancy to her, now that he has a concubine, he can only throw away his hand. She has such a reputation, in addition to hooking up with Chen Wuye, who else wants her? ”

Yue Shi sneered when he heard this, turned around and asked Zhao's mother, "Which one is she?" ”

Zhao's mother blushed: "It's Duan Weicai's wife." ”

Ting Shan's chest rose and fell: "Mother, I can't spare her!" ”

Yue raised his feet into the courtyard, and the chatter stopped abruptly. Yue's slowly swept around, all the servants in the second room, gathered in a circle, spit out the melon seed skin all over the ground, and said expressionlessly: "The old lady often praises me for governing the family well." I listen to it very happily on weekdays, and I think I'm really smart. Today, I learned that the old lady was polite. As far as the rules of our family are concerned, they are really good at governing the family! ”

The servants were frightened and plopped to their knees like dumplings. How many things do the old lady have to worry about when she is fiftieth birthday? A few servants took advantage of the chaos in front of them, and they hid behind them, and when it was about to get dark, they just swept the floor away, and they were unaware. Where did I think that Yue's would be able to come home in the middle of the day, and catch it. Thinking about Yue's decency at home, his face is as earthy as earth.

The Yue clan really doesn't like Tingfang, but it doesn't mean that she can let the servant woman be a niece, and she thinks she's being cautious if she doesn't know. Now that Ting Fang is clearly the top of the old lady's heart, it would be stupid for her to indulge the servant woman again. I didn't bother to look at the servants on the ground, turned my head and said to Mother Zhao: "Some people are getting more and more embarrassed, I can't clean up now, you tie up the leader and send it to the four girls!" After saying that, he went straight into the house, only to find that his sons were not at home. No wonder the servant woman was so bold. asked the girl who stayed behind, and learned that the children took advantage of the good weather to go to the garden pavilion to do their homework, for fear that they would be naughty and not finish their homework, so they hurried to the garden with Tingshan.

Zhao's mother called a few people, tied Duan's mother strongly, and was about to be sent to the East Courtyard.

Duan's mother shouted, "Why do you tie me up?" ”

Mother Zhao sneered: "I heard you gossiping!" Don't be complacent about the rest, deduct a month's money each, and those who commit another offense will be dismissed. I never thought that the old lady couldn't surrender to such a ruthless hand, the grandmothers are really good! ”

"Yo!" Duan's mother said, "Lao Zhao, you have now gained the essence of the masters. ”

Zhao's mother didn't take the stubble at all, she and Duan's mother came to Ye's house together, Yue's thought Duan's mother was mediocre and didn't like to use her, she was just an ordinary servant, and she didn't have to think about it to know that she was full of sour soup. Talking to this kind of person is simply a downgrade. glanced at the two people who were kidnapping people next to him, and took Duan's mother to the east courtyard.

Duan's mother didn't care, and said that the four girls were powerful, but she was not afraid. Previously, everyone was afraid that she might be a princess, and they didn't dare to say a word. Now that the princess has become someone else, she has also fallen out with the Chen family, and she dares to talk back to her father, and see what she will become in the future. Now he must step up his tail and be a man, how dare he be a demon! What's more, if it weren't for the kindness of the big houseowner's mother, she would be like six girls, and she would have to accompany them with a smile on weekdays. I was not afraid in my heart, but I walked out of the stable style.

When I went to the East Courtyard, someone had already reported to Tingfang that I knew. The people in charge of the big house are now in front of the old lady to discuss the matter of giving gifts to Princess Fu, and they have to be received by Tingfang. As soon as the two sides met, they saw that Zhao's mother's respectfulness was in stark contrast to Duan's mother's arrogance. Ting Fang glanced at Duan's mother, who was tied up with five flowers, and her heart was immediately unhappy. Nentte sent it to her, either offending her or offending her. The appearance of the five flowers tied up, the meaning is still to make a face, the person has been tied, and the elders will give you compensation in a vague way, so it is better to raise it high and put it down gently.

Mother Zhao saw that Tingfang's face sank, and hurriedly said: "Now the wives are not idle, and I ask the girl to deal with it herself." ”

Ting Fang raised her eyebrows and asked, "What did she do?" ”

Mother Zhao hesitated for a while, and then gently mentioned two words: "Fuwang ......"

Ting Fang thought about it for a while and understood, when King Fu came in the morning, he said that he wanted their family to prepare to say goodbye to the Yan family, thinking that the candidate for Princess Fu had already spread. The person who thought she could be the princess of Fu before, but now when she saw the plot reversed, she fell into the well and saw the jokes. It seems that it is not possible to be ruthless today, and she does not have time in the United States to play with the matter of pressing the gourd and floating the scoop. It just so happened that King Fu sent a strong woman and beckoned to An'er: "Good sister, let me see your ability to beat people." ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but An'er was straight. The intestines, hearing the master's command, are neatly pumped. took out a latch and walked towards Duan's mother.

Narcissus's frightened face turned white, grabbed Ting Fang's sleeve and whispered: "Girl, that's the second wife's companion room, ...... You can't wipe the face of your elders! ”

Duan's mother saw the black-faced girl approaching with a latch like an iron tower, and shouted with bulging eyes: "You dare! ”
