Chapter 36: Purging the Inner House

Xiao Zhao's face was really open this time, and he cried for a long time at the gate of Yuanxiang Hall. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the end, Luo Sheng heard about this and sent someone to take her back to Luoxia Pavilion.

In fact, her crying like this will only be counterproductive, and the Zhao family is already determined to take back the stewardship in his hands this time. Where would Xiao Zhao change his mind because of a few crying and begging?

However, the most important thing at the moment is to solve Luo Zheng's problem first.

After some consideration, Zhao asked Mama Zhao to open her private vault and took out the blue and white peony pattern dragon ear bottle that she had been cherishing.

"This blue and white ear vase, although the value is not as valuable as that pair of flowers, but because it is a unique product, it is more rare, you take it to the prince, but it is also decent."

Luo Zheng refused to take it, and only said in a low voice: "Why does my son give gifts, but I want to let my mother out of the private room." ”

It can be seen that he is really in a bad mood at the moment.

Seeing him like this, Zhao sighed and said, "You make me uneasy like this, in the final analysis, it is because I don't know people well and indulge my daughter-in-law that caused today's situation." ”

"It's none of my mother's business!" Luo Zheng subconsciously retorted.

"Why is it none of my business, don't you complain about me in your heart if you refuse to take my things now?"

"The mother misunderstood her son, how dare the son think like this! The son is away all the year round, and the mother is taking care of the whole family, how can the son blame the mother? Luo Zheng was really afraid that the Zhao family would really think like this, so his tone became anxious.

Who knew that Zhao smiled when he saw it, "Okay, you have been such a character since you were a child, you are too upright." It's not that it's bad, but sometimes you should keep some eyes on it. As he spoke, he gave Mama Zhao another look.

Mama Zhao comprehended, and hurriedly put the ear bottle in her hand on the coffee table in Luo Zheng's hand.

Zhao Shi said again: "Since you said that you didn't complain about me, then take this to the prince." ”

Only then did Luo Zheng carefully pick up the ear bottle and respectfully salute the Zhao family.

The mother and son gossiped a few more words before Luo Zheng withdrew.

After Luo Zheng left, the smile on Zhao's face immediately disappeared, and he asked Mama Zhao to summon all the major stewards to Yuanxiangtang.

She has to take care of this house, otherwise she will be fooled like a blind person!

Two quarters of an hour later, the major stewards of the Guogong Mansion followed Mama Zhao to Yuanxiangtang.

Entering the hall, everyone knelt down to worship the Zhao family with low eyebrows.

They were all playing some drums at the moment, and they didn't know what the Zhao family meant by calling them over? After all, the Zhao clan hadn't called them for years.

Zhao didn't shout when he saw people kneeling, but only lowered his head and fiddled with the pair of cards in his hand.

A few of the kneeling people below are not like human spirits, and when they see her like this, they all know that they are afraid that it will be bad.

Sure enough, I heard Zhao order Luo Zhong, "Luo Zhong, you have taken over your father's position and been a housekeeper in the house for a few years?" ”

Luo Zhong listened and replied, "Back to the old lady, it's been eight years. ”

"Oh, it's been eight years, and it's not too short." Zhao nodded, as if he was speaking to himself.

Luo Zhong didn't dare to reply nonsense, so he had to kneel and keep silent.

Zhao went on to ask some other stewards about the years they had been in office.

Some replied that twenty years, some sixteen, some thirteen... Even the shortest one is five years.

Who knew that the Zhao family, who seemed to be still kind and pleasant, suddenly became powerful the next moment.

I saw her palm touch and slap it on the table, and said sharply: "You still remember the year you were on an errand in the house!" I'd like you're all new, very incompetent cubs! ”

"The slave (slave) is terrified, and the old lady forgives her sins." Everyone hurriedly kowtowed with bated breath and confessed.

"Humph! Forgive your sins, what shall I forgive your sins? I'm afraid I have to forgive my sins first! Otherwise, I won't have the face to see Master Hou when I die! He was even more angry.

Luo Zhong knew more or less the inside story in his heart, and he was the chief housekeeper of the house, so he should open this mouth first.

Then he kowtowed heavily and persuaded: "The old lady takes care of herself." If the minions do something bad, you just have to teach the lesson, no one dares to be resentful, but if the old lady is tired and unhappy, the minions are really guilty and deserve death! ”

"yes!" "That's it, the old lady takes care of her body." Everyone also followed closely and echoed Luo Zhong.

Zhao was persuaded by them, his mood was a little better, he softened his tone a little, and said to everyone: "I called you here today because I have a new question, and I want you to solve my wife's doubts." ”

Everyone hurriedly said: "It's time to torture the slave (slave maid), and the old lady can only give orders if she has something." ”

Zhao picked up the house book on the table, raised it to his eyes, and asked, "Then I don't know who will tell me where all the things registered in this book have gone!" Are you all dead or are you fooled? Dare to hide anything from me! ”

When everyone heard this, their expressions were different, and a few of them had a lot to do with this matter, and they broke out in a cold sweat and knelt on the ground trembling, not daring to speak.

Almost all of them are old people in the house, and a few of them were brought out by the old lady back then.

The rest of them, although some of them have never seen the old lady in charge, have all heard of how vigorous and resolute they are, and how they can do it!

Then they all fell to the ground in fear, and did not squeak, for fear that they would become the first bird.

Seeing them like this, Zhao sneered, "You don't speak, do you?" Do you want to wait for me to find out something for myself? When that time comes, don't blame me for being ruthless and unsympathetic, and then call anyone faceless! ”

The steward of the treasury couldn't stand it at first, and said with trembling lips: "Old lady forgive your sins, slave... Slaves have something to report. ”

The corners of Zhao's eyes moved, and he said in a deep voice: "You say." ”

The steward wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a breath, and said, "Minion... The minions were all instructed by the second lady to... I didn't tell the old lady about it. ”

Then, a few more stewards came out and said that they were instructed by the second lady to go up and down.

Zhao remembered these people before he opened his mouth again, "Oh, then, you were all instigated by the second lady, so you dared to help her fill her pockets and play tricks on me?" ”

Those few people hurriedly said: "The slave doesn't dare, the old lady is clear." ”

Zhao Shi listened to their defense and snorted coldly, "Then according to your opinion, what should be done about this matter?" ”

When she was a three-year-old, coax her with this? If they don't have a little bad intentions, how dare they help Xiao Zhao's family do these things, but they are just a group of greedy villains!

As soon as something happens, I know that we are biting each other!

Thinking of this, Zhao's heart suddenly appeared, such a person, I am afraid that they will not be able to stay in the mansion, and they are all a plague of moths.
