Chapter 007: Rules
The third lady also had a hint of schadenfreude on her face, but she was more worried in her heart.
"It's good that the Li family is unlucky, but I'm more worried about my mother and Mengbao, didn't you hear my mother just say that she wanted to take back the housekeeping rights, if that's the case......"
"Probably not, right? Isn't she just scaring Lee? As long as the Li family behaves in the future and does not deduct Mengbao's share, the mother will not find any reason to take back the housekeeper's rights. ”
The third lady smiled bitterly: "If my mother really wants to take it back, how can she need any reason?" It's not a matter of one sentence yet. I don't think Mengbao is simple, picking such a day to catch the Li family off guard, if my mother wants to cultivate her......"
"Snort," the second lady was a little disdainful: "That's a fool, today's situation is so good, the old lady has sent a message to ask her to move back to Zhuxi Garden, she is stunned not to go back, I really treat her as a piece of material......"
The third lady was silent, but the worry in her heart did not disappear.
Fools?
How could a fool carry a prescription with him on a tea ceremony?
If she hadn't heard in advance that the old lady was here today, and knew that Mother Xu beside her knew some medical skills, what was the use of bringing that prescription.
It's not like a fool would do it.
…………………………
Jingxinyuan, not long after Mengbao went back, Mother Xu personally brought two maids over, and also brought her monthly allowance for the past six months, and added another one hundred taels as compensation.
In addition, there are many rich ingredients, such as chicken, duck, fish, and supplements, such as bird's nest and ginseng.
Mother Xu looked at Mengbao and smiled kindly: "The old lady said, she has wronged the young lady in the past half a year, she asked the old slave to accompany the young lady on behalf of the eldest lady, no matter how you say it, it is the fault of the eldest lady's majesty who is not strict and negligent, if not, it will not hurt the young lady who has been sick for half a year." ”
Although these words blamed the Li family, they also defined the matter as a momentary negligence, rather than intentional, and the meaning of the words was naturally to hope that Jing Xinyuan would not pursue the past mistakes.
Mengbao naturally wouldn't be so ignorant of grasping other people's mistakes, and immediately said: "It's not my mother's fault, why should grandmother let Mother Xu apologize on behalf of my mother, it seems that Mengbao is ignorant." ”
Mother Xu smiled: "I know that the young lady is a good talker, since this is the case, the old slave will not say those polite words." These are the two maids that the old lady personally picked for the young lady, you can rest assured. ”
"In addition, there should be another housekeeper mother in the yard, but there is no suitable one to pick and choose, this is not to remember that the young lady's yard before Zhao's mother is still recuperating in the Zhuangzi, the old slave took the opportunity to be lazy, no longer looking for other people, sent someone to bring Zhao's mother back, I think it will be tomorrow."
Zhao's mother was married from the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion with Su Mengbao a year ago, she was diligent and took good care of Su Mengbao, but when Su Mengbao was at fault, she would also point out that she was not like her stepmother who blindly indulged her.
Su Mengbao was not very close to her because of this, if she hadn't been the one her biological mother had left behind to take care of her, she would have sold her a long time ago.
When Su Mengbao was sick half a year ago, Zhao's mother couldn't untie her clothes in order to take care of her, and she accidentally suffered from the cold.
At this moment, when I heard that Zhao's mother was coming back, the most excited thing was the red note.
The red note is an orphan girl that Su Mengbao picked up on the street when she was young, she has been helpless since she was a child, and after entering the Hou Mansion, the closest person besides her own lady is Zhao's mother, and she also recognized Zhao's mother as her stepmother.
Because the relationship between Su Mengbao and Zhao's mother is not very good, Hongzhi has never dared to mention taking Zhao's mother back, but this does not mean that she doesn't miss her in her heart.
Meng Bao was excited when she saw the red note, and then she remembered her relationship with Zhao's mother, and couldn't help but feel a little sorry.
"I'm dizzy these days, and I didn't think of picking up Zhao's mother back, which makes you worried."
Hongjian hurriedly shook his head, with tears in his eyes, but he didn't know what to say, crying and laughing made Mengbao a little crying and laughing.
Seeing that their master and servant were close, Mother Xu nodded with a smile and asked, "What about Miss Baozhu?" Why didn't you see her? ”
Meng Bao was stunned for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "Baozhu, she is a little uncomfortable, I asked her to go back to the house to rest first." ”
Mother Xu's brows furrowed slightly, how could she not understand in her heart, how could someone who was shouting like that just now be sick in a blink of an eye, eighty percent came back and was scolded, and she was unhappy to hide and refuse to see anyone.
"I heard that Miss Baozhu and the young lady have been close since childhood, and they are also treated as half masters in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, but the subordinates are always subordinates, no matter how big they are, they can't go to the master, and there should be some rules for subordinates."
"It stands to reason that Miss Baozhu is the young lady's maid in marriage, and the old slave should not talk too much, but the young lady is now the master of the Dingnan Hou Mansion after all, although it is also the Hou Mansion, but some of the rules of the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion are not necessarily applicable to the Dingnan Hou Mansion, and the young lady should also let the Baozhu girl understand this truth."
Mengbao's face changed slightly, Mother Xu is the old lady's person, these words are naturally the old lady's meaning, it seems that Baozhu's table today really annoyed the old lady, but she didn't point it out in public.
Mengbao nodded yes, saying that he would teach his subordinates well, and Mother Xu left with a smile.
After Xu's mother left, the two new maids gave Mengbao a gift.
"Slave Xi'er."
"Slave and girl."
"I've seen the young lady."
Meng Bao smiled: "The name is festive." ”
The two maids smiled slightly, and their nervous mood relaxed a little.
"I don't have anything to do in Jingxinyuan on weekdays, but I can't clean up the work, you just came, if you don't understand anything, just ask the red note."
The magpie nodded in agreement, and after saying hello, she took her things and went into the house.
Meng Bao returned to the room and rubbed his forehead.
To tell the truth, she didn't want anyone else to come to this courtyard, even if it was sent by the old lady.
She used to be more comfortable in this courtyard, she slept as long as she wanted, and she could say whatever she wanted, but now there are two new maids, first of all, the red note and the jewel can no longer call her Miss in front of them, but call her the young lady, otherwise let the old lady know, she will definitely think that she has no rules.
But she really didn't like the title of young lady, which would make her always remember that she was married at a young age, and she was a person with no emotional foundation at all.
As a modern person in the 21st century, she really can't accept it......
She was having a headache over the question of her salutation, when there was a ping-pong sound in the courtyard, which made her brow furrow even tighter.
It's really a headache one after another, can't you let her stop for a while?
