A few days later, Su Man came back from the old lady, and met Zhou Hui on the way, Zhou Hui looked at Su Man, and smiled without smiling. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
"I heard that it was you who said the love to the old lady for Osmanthus?"
"No?" Su Man stopped, and suddenly patted his head as if he remembered, and said with a smile, "Oh, I forgot, speaking of this, I was going to tell the eldest lady you, who knew that the old man was going to ask me that day, and I would reply to what I asked, and then the old man mentioned that he wanted to give me a reward, I said no, and then I talked about osmanthus, which is also a hurry to catch up, if it wasn't for the old lady rushing to be the master, I would definitely go back to the eldest lady!" β
"Oh? What are you going to give me back? Is it for the osmanthus thing? Zhou Hui squinted at Su Mandao.
"Yes!" Su Man said with a smile: "I want to tell the eldest lady, this osmanthus against the lord that day, it is really not good, if it was in the Dongwang Mansion, she would have been beaten up, but fortunately, the lord was kind and let her go." This Sister Osmanthus is too, she has a high heart, she wants to climb a good master, and she is not angry, the eldest lady found this person for her, and she still picks and chooses. β
"Humph!" Zhou Hui snorted, looked at Su Man and said: "Just like her, that Wang Qiusheng is a little bent with her, a girl, she doesn't understand the rules at all, I don't know how the wife she followed taught her?" Who is the master? Not only is he the lord of our house, but he also has the identity of a prince! She is a girl, and she deserves to be blamed for the master? If you change people's homes, it's strange if you don't kill her! β
"That's what the big lady said!" Su Man saw that Zhou Hui was at this time, talking about Xue Ying's not, and thought to himself, they seemed to be closer than sisters, but behind their backs, Su Man was inconvenient to mention Xue Ying, thought about it, and said, "Big lady, I want to say something to you, but I don't know if I should say this?" β
"You say!" Zhou Hui still squinted at Su Man, moved to the front and walked slowly, Su Man followed carefully.
"Big lady, it stands to reason that you are the head of the family, that day the old lady wants to be the master of Sister Osmanthus, and give her thirty taels of silver, at that time I thought, she is a person who made a mistake, the old lady will give her more, after this, if other girls are matched, give less, can you accept it? Although we all came from the Dongwang Mansion, we can't wipe off the face here, but as long as we give it according to the conventions of the mansion. β
"Hey!" The eldest lady saw Su Man say this, right in her heart, she originally thought, when the day of the osmanthus marriage, give her a few taels of silver, never thought that the old lady jumped out, promised to give her thirty taels, she is not good to refute the old lady's face, if you give her a few more taels of silver, it doesn't matter how much silver, but as if she has merit, if she doesn't give, as the housekeeper's wife, it seems that she is stingy, is intended to retaliate, let the subordinates chew their tongues behind their backs.
Thinking of this, the eldest lady turned around and said to Su Man, "According to your wishes, what should I do?" β
"If it is according to my superficial knowledge, if the eldest lady tells the accounting room, let them give it according to the convention, the old lady can't say anything, the eldest lady also looks good on the face, if it is according to the old lady's wishes, the eldest lady you don't give, I feel bad, to give people, it seems that the eldest lady is intending to retaliate, in fact, the eldest lady's mind, where is the general knowledge of a girl? It's just that the knowledge of those people can only be at that level, how can they know the hard work of the eldest lady in managing this family? Still have the mind to calculate people? β
"I'm as knowledgeable as her?" The eldest lady looked back at Su Man, her small eyes widened, "How old is she?" β
Su Man hurriedly said with a smiling face, "Big lady, don't be angry, you can't be angry with those people!" Big lady, then I'll go first! β
Zhou Hui stood there, thought for a moment, and said to Su Man's back.
"You're back!"
Su Man heard the eldest lady call her, and a smile appeared on her face again, turned around, and hurried back.
"What's the matter with the eldest lady?" Su Man whispered.
"What you said is not unreasonable, some people in the house are really not good at speaking, and some of them are very naΓ―ve." Zhou Hui turned to Su Man again, "Then according to you, I asked the account office to give her ten taels of silver?" The old lady's thirty taels are not given? β
"This matter can't be publicized everywhere, the eldest lady quietly sent someone to tell the bookkeeper."
"Huh?" The eldest lady lowered her head and thought about it, quietly? Hiding from the old lady? Just because of these thirty taels of silver? If the old lady knew, then she wouldn't scold herself to death! So he said, "Su Man, what kind of bad idea do you have?" Isn't this asking me to quietly dismiss the old lady's face? If the old lady knows, she points at me, and says that she can't do anything for thirty taels of silver, where will you put my face? β
"That's just as well!" Su Man patted his head and said: "I just think that there is too much in the house, and others will gossip, but I didn't expect this layer." β
Zhou Hui waved her hand and let Su Man go, and in the evening, Wang Yilong returned to the bedroom, Zhou Hui was still thinking about it in her heart, and said to Wang Yilong.
"Master, look at what you said about Su Man, as if she is capable, in my opinion, she is nothing more than that." So he told Wang Yilong what Su Man said during the day as it was.
Wang Yilong looked at Zhou Hui, inconvenient to say anything, and thought to himself, you are also her opponent? Wang Yilong knew in his heart that Zhou Hui didn't treat Su Man very well, Su Man was like a mirror in his heart, Su Man said this, it was a trap for her, let her get into it by herself, she didn't know it, at her level, she dared to judge Su Man? It's a shame that she can say it!
"Master, you say, what should I do about this?"
Wang Yilong thought for a while and said to Zhou Hui, "You do this, the old lady will give it to the old lady, you will give it to you, you will go to the old lady tomorrow, and say that you let Xiaolan go and spread the word to the outside, and let the account room give osmanthus ten taels of silver, Xiaolan forgot about it, you tell Xiaolan in private, let her inherit this matter, and then you reprimanded Xiaolan in front of others early in the morning and spread the matter, understand?" β
Zhou Hui went through Wang Yilong's words in his mind a few times, and Fang suddenly realized, patted his thigh and said, "Master, you have a good idea!" β
There was nothing to say all night, and on the second day, Zhou Hui whispered to Xiaolan, Xiaolan just nodded and smiled at Zhou Hui.
"Madam, even if you scold, it's okay, I'll take care of it."
"Laugh at the fart, laugh at it! You have to pretend to be sad, argue a few more words, just say that you were busy that day, and then pretend to be wronged, pretend to wipe your tears, you know! β
Xiaolan heard Zhou Hui say this, and understood.
"Wait a few days, I'll find a reason to have someone make you a floral dress to wear!" Zhou Hui didn't owe her grievances, said.
Xiaolan was happy in her heart, pretending to be calm on her face, and said thank you to Mrs. with a smile.
Zhou Hui finished breakfast, and after a while, she went out and saw Xiaolan talking to the girls there, and she reprimanded her loudly.
Xiaolan lowered her head, and the tears didn't know what to think of sadly, so she came down, and the other girls were standing there, not daring to make a sound, when Zhou Hui reprimanded Xiaolan, Wang Ma originally wanted to say a few words to Zhou Hui, but when she saw that she was training Xiaolan, it was inconvenient to come in, so she turned around and told the old lady to go.
After training Xiaolan, the eldest lady pretended to be angry and sat in the room for a while, and the girls stood there carefully, silently one by one.
Zhou Hui saw that the play was over, walked out of the house, and came to the old lady!
"The big lady is here!" Wang Ma smiled and opened the curtain for Zhou Hui, and Zhou Hui saw that the old lady was there to show Wang Zhu.
"The old lady's things are very valuable, and you dare to touch them?" The eldest lady reprimanded Wang Zhudao.
Wang Zhu saw that Zhou Hui was coming, so she busily picked up the pair of jade Ruyi, thinking to herself, if she didn't leave at this time, she would listen to her more, and said to the old lady: "Old lady, I'll go see Yaoyao." β
"Go ahead!" The old lady looked at Wang Zhudao with a smile.
Wang Zhu didn't say hello to Zhou Hui and ran past her.
When the old lady saw Wang Zhu walking away, she said, "Why are you so angry early in the morning?" It's better to be less angry with your body! β
"Old lady, you said that this Xiaolan, I look at her on weekdays is good, let her go and pass the word, tell the account room to take ten taels of silver to the girl of Osmanthus, she forgot about it, and made me angry." Zhou Hui personally poured a cup of tea for the old lady and handed it to the old lady.
"You gave?" The old lady patted her thigh, "You said it earlier?" β
"Hey, it's not a big deal, how can you tell the old lady about it? Let's just say that there are no twenty or thirty things happening in this house on any day? If you go back to the old lady with a big lady, don't say that the big lady is annoying, the old lady you always listen, and the annoyance is annoying. Wang Ma said with a smile.
The old lady said, "I'm old, I don't want to worry about it." Give it, give it, I thought you didn't give it, treat this girl, the last time Su Man mentioned her here, I came forward and promised to give her thirty taels of silver. β
"Old lady, you look at it, what should I do about this? Su Man was right yesterday, he gave her so much silver for no reason, we must have a reason, otherwise, if others don't say it, they will not be convinced! β
"This thing is easy to do, just push it on Su Man's girl's head, just say that I am giving Su Man face, so that this helpless girl will be more beautiful when she gets married, how to explain it, she is naturally reasonable, and others have nothing to say!"
