Chapter 200: The Last Swan Song
Su Man slowly stood up from the ground, she chuckled in her heart, the old lady's words didn't seem like they came out of her mouth, what's wrong? What's going on?
The old lady was angry, she understood, but the old lady said such things in front of so many people today, so that she couldn't get off the stage, this is not the old lady's character, Su Man lowered his head, thinking about the old lady's voice, this sound, no one cares, but Su Man felt that something was wrong, and the old lady's words were clearly filled with regret, helplessness, and hatred of iron and steel.

As time passed, the wall clock had struck eleven times, and the night was dark, and Wang Xinhui yawned again and again.
"Queen Mother, it's time for you to rest!" A palace maid standing behind Wang Xinhui said.
"Yes, Queen Mother, it's not early, you're tired from this journey, and it's not good to rest on that boat these days, so it's better to rest early." The old lady said.
"Mother?" Wang Xinhui shook the old lady's hand: "There are no outsiders here, why do you call it that?" It sounds weird, but it doesn't look like the mother and wife are chattering! ”
The old lady smiled: "Okay, Xinhui, my mother loves you, go, go to bed early, there will be guests tomorrow, it is inevitable that there will be some entertainment, you can't yawn for a while, right?" ”
"Okay, mother, it's almost the same when you say that, then you should rest early, everyone rest, it's really tiring after being busy this day!" Wang Xinhui said and stood up.
The old lady took Wang Xinhui's hand, sent her to the door, and said to her, "I'll talk to Su Man, and I'll rest in a while." ”
Wang Xinhui nodded and went.
The old lady sat back in her place, except for Wang Xinhui, everyone did not disperse.
"Suman!" The old lady spoke, and Suman stepped out of the crowd.
The old lady glanced at Zhou Hui, Zhou Hui nodded, sat on the side, and said to Su Man.
"Su Man, the arrival of the minister of the Qin Mission, it was expected, but the queen mother's relatives, came suddenly, the officials who came to meet in the past few days should not be a few, including relatives at home, the number of people is afraid to be more than a thousand, I have not been in good health recently, and the second wife and young grandmother and many female relatives need to socialize, ushered in the send-off, I'm afraid that the house can't take care of it, I and the old lady mean, let you come out to take care of the queen mother's relatives, I hope you don't shirk."
Seeing that Su Man did not speak, the old lady stood there, lowered her head, and said.
"From the head of the king downwards, they are all at your disposal, and if there are those who are lazy and slippery, you can punish them."
Su Man still didn't reply, Lin Xiao said.
"Su Man, you are a smart person, up and down the house, and only you can take on this important responsibility!" Lin Xiao said: "The old lady asked you to help the eldest lady take care of the house, you refuse, this time you can't refuse, even if you help the house for the last time!" ”
After listening to Lin Xiao's words, Su Man raised her head and glanced at Lin Xiao, the doubts in her heart were confirmed, Lin Xiao clearly guessed what she was thinking in her heart, and said the words in white, so as not to be thinking nonsense.
Su Man thought about it, nodded heavily, and said with a smile.
"Old lady, eldest wife, second wife, I haven't done anything like this, I'm afraid I'll do something wrong, I'll say it here first, if I'm wrong, don't blame me then." After speaking, she glanced at Xiaocui and said to them, "Why don't you let the third aunt's wife come over to help me!" ”
Xiao Cui secretly glared at Su Man, Su Man was smiling in his heart, but he pretended not to see it on his face.
The three of them laughed when they heard Su Man's words, and they said.
"I don't blame you! Don't talk about Xiaocui, you can call anyone, and they will listen to you! ”
"As long as you put your heart into it, can you be wrong?"
"If you don't understand, you can ask the old lady!"
This matter is settled, after speaking, everyone dispersed, Su Man did not leave, he wanted to discuss some things with Mr. Wang, the old lady was busy asking people to call, Su Man sent Chen Yao back to rest, let Yanzi accompany him, Su Man was at the gatehouse of the inner courtyard, and Mr. Wang.
"Please send someone to inform those in charge immediately, tomorrow the third watch will go to the second Taoist courtyard meeting hall, I have something to say."
Manager Wang had already heard that Su Man was going to take care of the queen mother's relatives on behalf of the eldest wife, but he couldn't be careless in this matter, so he hurriedly responded.
Su Man returned to the bed, thinking about the words of the second wife, is he going to leave here? Where to go? In the capital, Su Man thought, they want to take Chen Yao back to the capital? Definitely, yes. The palace has not been peaceful in recent years, and Xiaocui said that there has never been such a big disturbance before. There is only one reason, that is Chen Yao, everything revolves around her.
The minister of the imperial mission came with the queen mother at this time, and he must have come for this matter, and Su Man did not know who these two ministers were until he arrived at the door. Wang Yilong and Wang Yihu's absence tonight must have gone to accompany the two Qincha who came to the capital.
Su Man thought about all kinds of arrangements for tomorrow again, imagined countless scenes, and described a lot of emergencies in his heart, how he should deal with them at that time, time passed quickly, and he didn't realize that the second watch had already sounded. Suman then fell asleep dimly.
The sedan horse waited outside the gate of the inner courtyard, Su Man finished grooming, went in to see Chen Yao, she slept soundly, Su Man tucked the quilt for her, and then led it
Xiao Xiang came out of the house, and the little girl carried the lantern to the door of the inner courtyard and went back.
There are more than a hundred people in charge of affairs, Su Man sat on it, a little excited, a little nervous, facing so many men and women older than himself below, these people are people who have seen the world, good at dealing with interpersonal relationships, and have experienced more things than her, a stunned young man.
"Xiaoxiang, Dianmao!"
Xiaoxiang ordered it again, Su Man looked at it attentively, sat down one by one, then took a sip of tea, cleared his throat, and said.
"Uncles, mothers, some of us have seen, some of them are the first time to see, the old lady and Mrs. handed over such a big thing to welcome the queen mother's provincial relatives to me a little girl, I am really worried, you are older than me in terms of age, you are older than me in terms of qualifications, how can I do this position? Then I tell you, it is because of the trust of the old lady and the wife, the people they trust, although you are suspicious, it doesn't matter, but you must remember one thing, no matter how you evaluate me as a girl, during the time of the Queen Mother's provincial relatives, do your duty, take your people, manage them well, and when this matter is over, you people in charge, I will naturally have a reward, this reward is not as good as in the past, this reward is five taels of silver per person. I can tell you, don't look at the five taels of silver, it's two or three times as much as in the past, but not everyone can get it, it depends on your performance. If they all perform well, the Zhennan Wangfu is not short of these five hundred taels of silver, what is the only five hundred taels of silver? The reputation you have earned for the Zhennan Royal Mansion is not something that can be bought by this mere five hundred taels. As the old saying goes, there must be a reward and a punishment, and the reward and punishment must be clear, since I have a heavy reward, the punishment will not be light, please keep in mind that this is the queen mother's provincial relatives, and many officials who came to meet nearby, if anyone dares to be at this juncture, one step late, to the Zhennan Palace, don't blame me for this girl turning her face ruthlessly, in addition to serving the board, immediately cut off the position of steward, punish to clean the toilet, and never use it. ”
It's very quiet below, and you can even listen to a needle, after Su Man finished speaking, he stood up, whispered to Xiaocui, and left to go back to sleep.
After Su Man left, Xiao Cui smiled and said to them.
"I know that you are all people with heads and faces, and some even have a very hard backstage, but you don't know yet, the old man is ruthless, saying that no matter who it is this time, as long as it is handled by Su Man, it will be done according to what she says, don't think that someone will intercede for you, this time no one will give face, that is, the old lady has spoken, and she is her person, and she will be treated all of them, and she will never favor any one. I'll say one last thing, don't expect to beg for mercy after doing something wrong, it really doesn't work this time, or think about how to do your own thing, take care of your own people, and get the five taels of silver, such a decent and affordable thing, where to find? As for how to deal with the people below, Sister Su Man said, you decide for yourself, we don't care! Everyone, let's go and take care of our own affairs. ”
