The mother and daughter spoke softly, and before they knew it, they were under the kitchen of Ning Chuntang. Mama Ge was in charge of everything in the kitchen and had good cooking skills, otherwise Xu would not have learned three tricks and two styles.

When she arrived at her own territory, Mama Ge took Xu to the rest place, closed the door tightly, and said worriedly: "Look at the vacancy, you sue Miss Sù." The Lang girl over there, yesterday ushered in an elder of the Tianyi True Sect, who is said to have a noble status and cultivate to the sky. Today, it has spread all over the world, and Miss Ying seems to be allowed to compete for the title because of the favor of that elder! ”

Xu smiled indifferently, hugged Mama Ge, and let the old mother sit in the chair, before squatting down and leaning on her knee and said, "Our girl has no intention of being a princess, and others have the blue eyes of nobles, what is there?" But mother, if you say, my daughter will give the girl. ”

Mama Ge let out a long sigh, raised her hand and sandwiched a wisp of Xu's cheek behind her ear, and said softly: "There is a discussion in the garden, saying that the reason why the old lady promised the daughter of the next family can also compete for the title of princess is to open the door for Miss Ke. Now that people are talking, as long as Miss Ke shows the slightest unwillingness, isn't it just ignoring the old lady's intentions and being extremely unfilial? ”

Xu was shocked. She grew up in the Xiao Mansion, so she naturally understood what it meant for this person who was under such pressure to be pressed down by a big hat of filial piety.

The Jokhang Xiao clan, no matter how the founding empress fought for the world with an iron fist, after creating a huge empire, she inherited the way of benevolence and filial piety to govern the country. The Lianghang Xiao clan always advertises that they will not forget the main lineage of Jokhang and their ancestors, and they will naturally talk about benevolence, righteousness and filial piety at home. Therefore, the two elders with the highest rank of Xiao enjoy supreme power, and Old Taijun Xiao can insist on allowing non-Xiao direct blood relatives to inherit the princess title.

If the name of Zongzhengke's unfilial piety spreads, no matter what the old lady thinks in her heart, her situation will immediately become difficult. At the very least, a reputation that doesn't know what to do is stuck with her.

Seeing her daughter's angry face, Mama Ge patted the back of her hand comfortingly and said, "No matter what the girl thinks in her heart, such words must not be spread outside." For example, our family was originally a big girl and an old servant. Naturally, they don't talk indiscriminately. The people who Miss Ke brought ......"

The "big girl" mentioned by Mama Ge is Xiao Wenying, she is the first great-granddaughter of Mrs. Xiao, and she is the longest in her generation. Seeing his mother's worried look, Xu couldn't help but smile and said, "Mother." You can rest assured! The four girls around the girl are not talkative people. They are all loyal to the girl, and they can not even want their lives for the sake of the girl. ”

Nodding with relief, Mama Ge said, "That's the best." can train such a loyal slave maid, it can be seen that the girl is not without means. Now we don't want anything else but to take care of the girl. As for the things on the side, it also depends on the destiny of heaven. The person who is loved by Destiny, even if she is unintentional, blessings will eventually fall on her! ”

"Mother, you are right." Xu Shi Yingying stood up and said with a straight face, "There is another one, my daughter must sue you." The girl is a man of ideas and great wisdom. I also asked my mother and several uncles and aunts to inform me. Just follow the girl's instructions, and never make your own decisions! ”

Mama Ge was stunned, and then said, "Sure enough, it is the eldest girl's child, and she has the same temperament as her mother." Don't worry, my mother will talk to the big guys. ”

She knew what her daughter really meant, she was telling herself, the old servants of the big girl, not to rely on the situation to control the little master because she had served the big girl. Mama Ge sighed secretly, the eldest girl has been out of the cabinet for more than ten years, and many of these former old servants have changed their courts. What are the minds of others. How could she know it all?

This Changchun Courtyard is not peaceful! In other words, the entire Suzhou and Hangzhou Mansions, the entire Shouchun Garden. Now they are all in the midst of treachery, so that people can't live in peace! No one is immune! Like Mama Ge, the subordinates who were dialed into Changchun Courtyard to serve were loyal and betrayed only in a single thought! Life and death are only in their thoughts!

I wonder if the girl has washed and gone to bed. Although she knew that she intended to let her mother and daughter get along more, Xu still said goodbye to her mother and hurried to serve. Mama Ge leaned against the door and watched her daughter's figure quickly disappear into the thick and boundless darkness, frowning slightly, and her heart was heavy.

With a faint sigh, she turned back and locked the door of the resting place, and then went to the kitchen to say a few words. She instructed the night watchmen to be vigilant and listen to the order to ask for tea and snacks from the main hall dormitory at any time. Miss Ke is a newcomer, and no one knows her true temperament and living habits, so it's always right to be careful.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law on duty at night responded respectfully, and Mama Ge carefully checked and counted the ingredients prepared in the kitchen, and felt that there should be no mistakes, so she left.

Mama Ge's family, due to the arrival of Zong Zhengke, was all transferred back to Changchun Courtyard. In fact, they have a large family, and they have already started the big house, and they have already lived a rich life of making slaves and maids.

Mama Ge's husband, Xu Xi, Xu's father, has already served as the head of a medium-sized grange, and more than 100 people under his command obey orders. Now he has returned to Changchun Temple, but his duties are still unknown, waiting to hear the school again. But he hadn't worked beside the big girl before, so what good hope could he have now?

Xu's two brothers, Xu Dalai and Xu Erlai, one is the shopkeeper of the restaurant and the other is the shopkeeper of the grain store. And these two businesses make a living, it is a bit of an exaggeration to say that they are making money every day, and they are indeed doing a prosperous business. Both of them had other properties, did not live with their parents, and lived a good life as well.

But now, Xu Dalai went back there because he had been in the big kitchen in the outer courtyard of Changchun Courtyard. Although it is the head of the stove, how can it compare with the majesty and dignity of the restaurant shopkeeper who manages more than 60 people?

Xu Erlai's new position is not bad—because he used to be an apprentice in the tent of Changchun Courtyard, but now he has returned to the tent and has become the general ledger, managing the income and expenditure of the money in the courtyard.

It's a pity that even if he is the general ledger, it is impossible for him to have the final say, and there is a deputy ledger room staring at it. The rules of the Xiao family's subordinates, the general ledger and the deputy ledger must come from two families that are quite incompatible. If Xu Erlai makes a mistake, he will wait to be stepped on and never turn over.

Not to mention the two brothers, even their daughters-in-law, they all hold a small position in the Xiao family's huge industry, and there are more than a dozen people under them who rely on them to survive.

But in one day, everyone's lives were turned upside down. They left the familiar and accustomed living and working environment and entered the gate of Changchun Courtyard, with a mountain called "Girl Ke" pressed above them.

This mountain, not a surname, Xiao! (To be continued.) )
