The originally noisy hall suddenly fell silent. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
When Ji's errand went on again, those deputy stewards who usually bowed their heads and obeyed orders looked back at the main stewards who had just been dismissed, and took the order to rush out to do business.
The room was full of people, and most of them were missing.
After all, Ji's heart was a little false, she no longer understood the twists and turns in the door of the house, and she also knew that this was a slap in the face of the fourth wife, Meng. Within two months of taking over, most of her people were removed.
Even when the eldest lady Shen helped her earlier, she only tried to find a way to handle these things, and she didn't dare to have the idea of withdrawing people.
She couldn't help but look at Mama Jiao, who was standing straight next to her, the latter's face was indifferent, without any nervousness and panic, and Ji's heart was slightly lowered.
At this time, the leading chief steward spoke, "Second wife, we have worked in the Yan family for most of our lives, and now you will withdraw when you say it, and you won't even give a reason, which is not right." ”
The person next to him echoed, "No, it was the old lady who promoted us back then, and we have been doing this for thirty or forty years, which can be described as dedication to the house." I didn't expect the second wife to say no, no, but you can tell me, what did we do wrong? ”
All of them are old people in the house.
Ji was quite embarrassed in his heart, which was the reason why he had been grinding with them for a few days and had no progress. These people are cunning and cunning, and they will do what they are told, but they don't pay attention, and they push back and forth to no avail, and they can't find a reason.
I just used Mama Jiao's practice, in the final analysis, it was also an impulse, and it felt very cool, but I was speechless at the moment.
"Mrs. naturally has a reason for doing this. If you are good on errands, why is this the case with your wife? You don't need to be here, if you want to talk to the old lady, our wife will naturally explain afterwards, and you can't go again in person, this time it will be fine, so let's all disperse and leave the house as soon as possible. ”
Born in the palace, and the old person next to the old princess of the palace, his aura is quite good, and those individuals have nothing to refute. I want to take the old lady out and press the second wife. People themselves have said that they will go to Hanyu Hall afterwards.
The stewards have a lot of thoughts. I didn't expect to be removed from power directly, and now it's useless to stand dry, and I left the house in disgrace.
Yan Wan came with Mama Jiao and stood outside the door without entering. I saw that the kung fu people who had not been in half an hour had come out. It's magical.
The people who had been circling for a few days disappeared in an instant. Ji looked at Mama Jiao with admiration, was very amazed, and secretly said where is this needlework Mama invited for Guanguan. It's clear that I found a housekeeper for myself.
She was polite, asked Mama Jiao to sit down and talk, and asked Lantian to serve tea.
Mama Jiao didn't shirk it, and said after taking a seat: "Madam, you don't have to worry, your current identity has this power, and this middle feed is in your hands, what's the big deal about promoting a few people?" The old lady didn't care about things for a long time, she used to be the eldest lady in charge, and then the fourth wife, and now it's your turn, everyone has their own set of methods. ”
"What Mama said is that it's just the old lady's side, she's not so easy to fool." Ji can argue with the concubine and turn his face, but he will not refute his mother-in-law in person.
"Why bother yourself, wife? Don't you think that these stewards look loyal to the old lady and the fourth wife, but who has no thoughts in private? Look at the demeanor of those deputy stewards just now, in the past, they were wronged by the errands below, and the wife will send someone to pass on to them later, and if you shake a few things casually, you can prevaricate the old lady's questioning. ”
Mama Jiao's tone was unwavering, as if it was a simple matter, "They have been suppressed by the stewards for many years, and now they finally have a chance to get ahead, so they are naturally vying to perform in front of you."
Mrs., if you want to be in charge of the house, you naturally have to be trustworthy people, and if these people don't pick them up, you can't be the real wife in charge. Let them make a fuss now, how can they be replaced with new people if there is nothing to do? ”
Ji's was said to be more stable, and Mama Jiao simply stayed here to accompany her to check the accounts, and by the way, taught her what to say when she went to see the old lady later.
Her words were not leaky, and Ji Shi easily explained it from Hanyutang according to her words.
The old lady and the fourth lady and daughter-in-law in the house were blushing and angry.
Meng, who had always been calm, lost his demeanor and said in a trembling voice: "Old lady, is the second sister-in-law determined to keep the middle feed?" ”
The old lady clenched her hand to the teacup, gritting her teeth and puzzled: "Without the Shen family, where did she have such great ability?" ”
"I heard that the grandmother who taught Sister Guan how to needlework mentioned it on the side."
The fourth wife tried her best to restrain the annoyance, and she regretted it in her heart, she had planned to pass the middle feed from the second room earlier, and then she would be more justifiable and in charge of the house, but now she can't get it back?
This has to pay for it!
"How can it be so easy?"
The old lady saw that she was in a hurry, and said in her heart, "In the end, she is still young", and reassured: "I don't know how many catties and taels of Ji's are for me?" And look at what she can do, this is in charge, can she change a few people? ”
In front of her mother-in-law, the fourth wife naturally could only endure it, but when she returned to Tai Lantang, she couldn't help it, picked up the tea cup on the table and fell out.
Yan Zhen, who came into the house to ask for peace, was startled, and her white face was full of panic.
The fourth lady retracted her color slightly, and said slowly: "Zhen'er, it's okay to rest early." ”
Yan Zhen walked over and said empathetically, "Mother, what's wrong?" ”
"It's not the same thing as Langxian Yuan in the evening, your second aunt has a capable person, and this will be a drastic rectification of the house."
The idea of taking the initiative to hand over the feed was Yan Zhen's idea, Meng Shi thought of this, looked at the girl's face was a little colder, and couldn't help but explain: "Don't always go to Langxian Yuan if you have nothing to do, where will the mother and daughter remember, you treat them with your heart, but how do they treat your mother and me?" ”
"Mother, don't be angry."
Yan Zhen went around to smooth her back and pinched her shoulders to relieve her fatigue, "The second aunt is not assertive, and she is impulsive, now that she can listen to Mama Jiao's words, she will naturally be able to listen to others when she looks back, and she can't do anything big." ”
"That is what the fourth lady said," said the fourth lady, "and I have become an idle lady like this?" Your second aunt is now domineering, and I don't know what to do with it, I'm afraid I don't know what the situation will be when I return to my hands. ”
Yan Zhen relieved her, "Mother, you are so virtuous, where is the second aunt comparable, what are you afraid of her doing?" ”
"What you're saying is, there's no way around it."
The fourth wife felt a pity, "In fact, if you don't hand it over at the beginning, what can others say?" Her Ji family is not in Beijing all the year round, this mansion has been managed by me for many years, and your father is powerful in the court, who will come forward for the second room? ”
Yan Zhen sensed her mother's emotions and thought about it for a while: "Is there any, mother, don't forget that the princess of Ri'an County specially asked me about my second aunt." After a pause, he retreated and said, "What's more, there is something you don't know, the princess wants to hire the third sister to Yi Shizi." ”
The listener was surprised, "Really? ”
"How dare your daughter deceive you for such a thing? It's a pity that the princess entered the palace to ask for a decree, but the queen didn't respond, so the matter was over. ”
Yan Zhen said and paused slightly, "But the Anjun Wangfu has this thought, who knows what will happen to the second aunt and them in the future?" So my mother should endure this breath for the time being, otherwise I am afraid of adding some unnecessary trouble. ”
The fourth wife is not a person who wants to be quick for a while, so she can naturally distinguish the benefits and disadvantages, so she can only nod.
With the assistance of Mama Jiao, the Ji family gradually found out the way to take care of the affairs of the house, and Jingxin was restored in Langxian Garden.
Yan Wan stayed in the boudoir, hugged the cat to count the hair, and took the "pineapple" for it.
Because when the name was named, the fifteenth princess happened to send two baskets of pineapples into the house, and the little girl was happy to finalize the next word.
At the beginning of May, the Nanyang Hou Mansion issued a birthday post to the Yan family. (To be continued.) )
