Chapter 16: Head to Head
Mrs. Huo's words made Qin Fang completely convinced, and she looked at Mrs. Huo in disbelief and couldn't understand what she had done to make Mrs. Huo dissatisfied. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since he took over the house, he has been managing this family in an orderly manner, and when the old marquis was in the past, he often felt that he managed the backyard very well, so that he had no worries outside, even if Mrs. Huo didn't say it, but every time she came to ask for peace, Mrs. Huo was also very face-saving, and the people in the entire house also respected her as a lady, how could Huo Yunxuan just casually let Mrs. Huo take away the right to take away her housekeeper with just a casual sentence?
Qin Fang has been practicing in the backyard for many years, although the difference is only a momentary thing, the emotions are well concealed, and no one can see anything wrong, just smiled awkwardly at Hai's family, as if her own child is extremely ignorant, and apologized: "The fourth girl is still a child after all, and the lady should not be like the fourth girl." ”
After that, he patted Huo Yunxuan's head, and his tone was doting: "You child, where is there a maid concubine in the house who is idle and enjoys happiness, but the mistress is affected?" ”
Huo Yunxuan sneered in her heart, and said in her heart that this Qin Fang is a person who can beat a rake, but there is still no trace on her face, she just blinked her eyes and looked at Qin Fang, with an innocent look in her eyes: "But other people's families are all in charge of the house, and the head of the family is so tired, Xuan'er doesn't want her aunt to be affected." ”
After that, he also pulled Qin Fang's arm and shook it twice, as if he was coquettish, then turned to look at Hai's again, and pouted dissatisfied: "Mother is too lazy, why has she only asked her aunt to suffer for so many years!" Hum! ”
Hai's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly lowered his eyes to hide the surprise in his eyes. Huo Yunxuan seemed to be speaking for Qin Fang to express her dissatisfaction with herself, but in fact, she was really seizing power for herself, and taking back the housekeeper's rights from Qin Fang little by little......
Huo Yunxuan is like this...... Is it true that you don't know the importance of housekeeping? Or has he seen through Qin Fang's true face a long time ago and stopped giving Qin Fang a long face?
Although Huo Yunxi is only seven or eight years old, her biological mother is the lady of the main house of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, and she naturally knows that the housekeeper should be the mother of the house. It's just that the Hai family has been hiding in the Wutong Garden for all these years, and even Huo Yunxi is so big, but he doesn't know the intrigue in the backyard at all, and when he sees Huo Yunxuan saying this, just when she is helping Qin Fang and wants to make the Hai family suffer, she can't help but flatten her mouth, and she is about to refute Huo Yunxuan's words, but she is quickly stopped by the Hai family.
Hai's quietly tugged Huo Yunxi's sleeve, Huo Yunxi looked up at Hai's in confusion, Hai shook his head lightly at Huo Yunxi, then stood up from his seat, bowed slightly to Mrs. Huo, and said with a smile: "What my mother said is that over the years, in order to take care of Sister Xi and Brother Xiang, the daughter-in-law has entrusted all the housework to Aunt Qin. ”
Very good. Huo Yunxuan's lips hooked up with an invisible smile. It turned out that she was afraid that the Hai family was a mud that couldn't support the wall, so she could say that she was grounded and deprived of the right to take charge of the family as entrusting the power of the family to Qin Fang in order to take care of the two children, so that she could also cleverly cover up the fact that she had been grounded in the past, and it could be regarded as a preparation for social whitewashing in the future.
It seems that the Hai family has already saved the heart to fight for power for the sake of their children, and now we have to see if this favor will be helped, whether Mrs. Huo will help or not.
The hand hidden under the sleeve tightened slightly, Huo Yunxuan lowered her eyes so that people couldn't see the emotion, and no one knew how nervous Huo Yunxuan was at this time.
This is the first time she has had a head-to-head confrontation in ancient times, naturally she hopes to get off to a good start, and she successfully seizes power for the first time to give Qin Fang a dismount, otherwise how will she stand up in the future?
Not only Huo Yunxuan, but Qin Fang and Hai's hands hidden under their sleeves were tightly clenched, looking at Mrs. Huo nervously, waiting for Mrs. Huo's final verdict.
The people in the big family are the most low-looking, because they are grounded and not favored, and they are not as good as some of the leading minions in the house. What's more, because she has been grounded all these years, an aunt who is the master of the house and goes out to socialize has long become a laughing stock in the capital, watching her two children grow up day by day, this time can she get out of the world of the grounded, let her children return to the appearance that their sisters-in-law should have, no longer let the jokes in the capital, and find a good family for Sister Xi in the next few years, these wishes all depend on whether Mrs. Huo is willing to help herself.
Old Mrs. Huo glanced at the people who were all looking at her nervously, her heart moved slightly, lowered her eyes and turned the jade bracelet in her hand, making people lazy and said, "In this case, you can discuss and discuss with Aunt Qin these days." ”
Mrs. Huo lowered her eyes so that people couldn't see her emotions: "You don't have to take care of everything, after more than ten years, you almost don't know anything about the affairs in the house, take your time first." ”
The implication is to let the two of them be in charge together.
Although Mrs. Huo didn't like Qinfang, she also felt that it was really embarrassing for an aunt in the house to be in charge, but Mrs. Huo was still a little worried about Hai's family, and Hai's never gave an explanation about Huo Yunxuan's affairs back then, just saying that she was wronged and had never done anything like that. There is no evidence, Mrs. Huo is naturally not at ease, so she thinks that the two of them will manage the house together, maintain a balance between mutual checks and balances, and the province will be dominant, and it will be unfavorable to Huo Chen in the future.
In the end, she watched her grandson who grew up since she was a child, and Mrs. Huo was naturally partial to Huo Chenyi, and for Huo Chenyi's candidacy, she had to temporarily wronged the other two children.
Maybe I also feel that I am so biased, I am a little sorry for Huo Yunxi's sister and brother, and for the first time, I have a good face for Huo Yunxi, and I said to Huo Yunxi with a smile: "Sister Xi will also follow your sisters to study in the school after the New Year, right?" ”
The daughters of the Huo family actually invited a private school to teach them some words when they were six years old, so that they could know the Four Books and the Five Classics and read the four books of women. At the age of eight or nine, if you are interested in learning, you will go to school in the Xishan Courtyard, and follow the female gentleman to learn some poetry and songs, or piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Although it was admired in ancient times that women were virtuous if they were not talented, all the women of the family were ashamed of their lack of knowledge and rushed to go to school to learn knowledge.
And Huo Yunxi because of Hai's grounding, only when he was six years old, he read a private school and did not touch books, Hai's mother's family is a scholarly family, and she loves to teach Huo Yunxi a few lines of poetry, songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting when she has nothing to do, but she is not a master in the end, and her knowledge is limited. Huo Yunxi is also an extremely studious person, and even her eyes lit up after listening to Mrs. Huo's words.
