Chapter Twenty-Five: The Steward's Mother
The next day, Shou Kangsai -
Wang looked at Cheng Yiyao with a smile, and then said to the old lady: "Our Yao girl now has no housekeeper around to control the big and small things in the house, it is really inconvenient, she has been raised by her mother's side since she was a child, I have looked for a few grandmothers or my mother to see if she can use it!" ”
Cheng Yiyao glanced at the Duchess of the Kingdom, then bit her lip without saying a word, and secretly sneered in her heart, this Wang family finally couldn't bear to prepare to arrange people around him.
After all, the Wang family is Cheng Yiyao's nominal mother, and there is no housekeeper by her side, so it is understandable for the Wang family to help pick people, but this life is different from the previous life after all.
"Sister-in-law is bothered!" At this time, a voice came from the outer room, and I saw a tall figure open the curtain and come in, "When the eldest brother left, let me help find our eldest lady's upbringing, isn't this just how I chose a few people to bring for my mother to see!" ”
"The grandmother selected by the fifth uncle is naturally good!" Wang glanced at Cheng Jinghao and could only sneer.
The Duchess of Guo was naturally happy when she saw her son: "I also told Mama Su to find a few grandma to send to Yao'er, don't we all want to go together, so it just so happens that I haven't started looking for someone yet, and you brought them all?" ”
Cheng Jinghao smiled: "No, people are waiting in the small cross-courtyard!" ”
The Duchess turned her head to Mama Su and ordered, "You go and have a look first, and if you think it's done, bring it to me to see it in a while!" ”
Mama Su leaned over and went down.
"Mother, if there's something going on here, then we won't bother!" Seeing that Mama Su went out, the second lady got up and saluted and retired, after all, this is a matter of the big house, and the people in the next room should not interfere.
"Then I won't keep you either!" The Duchess sent Bi Tao Bicheng beside her to send away a few ladies.
Seeing that Wang's face was a little unhappy, he said: "Since the boss has arranged it before leaving, let the fifth child deal with it, we will also worry about it, and we will also take a look at the people selected by the fifth child later!" ”
"That's because my mother and sister-in-law must check for me!" Cheng Jinghao said with a smile.
While speaking, Mama Su had already brought three grandmothers in, and the three grandmothers introduced each other.
"Slave Song Liu's family, Songhu people's family." On the far left is a woman in her mid-forties.
"Slave Xu Shao's family, Shancangren's family." In the middle is Mama Xu's forty or fifty years old.
The last one was the grandmother on the far right, who looked no more than in her early thirties, and bowed and said, "Slave Zhao Wang's family, Jiangyuan people's family." ”
Cheng Jinghao turned to the Duchess and said, "Mother, come and find out how the person I chose!" ”
"It's all good." The Duchess then asked, "First of all, tell me where you were before and what errands you were doing." ”
Mama Song said first: "Back to the old lady, the slave maid was originally teaching female red in Songhu Boudoir School. ”
"Back to the old lady, the maid was originally out with her late husband to make a living, and after the death of her first husband, she took over some things in the inner house in Ducheng to make ends meet." Mama Xu bowed and replied.
Mama Zhao leaned over and saluted before saying: "Back to the old lady, the slave maid was originally an errand in the palace, and she was at home after she came out, and her husband was the steward of the Zhuangzi in the house." ”
Duchess Guo's eyes swept over the three grandmothers one by one, and finally said, "Mama Su, take a few grandmothers down to rest first!" ”
After a few people went out, they said to the Wang family after a while: "What do you think of the old family?" ”
Although Wang is unhappy in his heart, it is not easy to express it, after all, the old lady does not interfere, if she is too much, it will inevitably cause criticism, these people are all Cheng Jinghao, and whoever she chooses is the same for her: "I look good, but it is up to my mother to decide!" ”
"I look at it, but Mama Song is a good one!" Although this person is quite strict, he is a capable-looking person, and he teaches schoolwork in the boudoir, so he must not be bad.
Cheng Yiyao was also a little happy when she heard this, she also took a fancy to this Song Mama, Mama Xu used to run out to make a living, if she said that she was still a little unstable as a housekeeper, the most important thing was that she was a little old, and when Cheng Yiyao was in charge of the family and needed manpower, she would almost be unable to do it.
As for this Mama Zhao, her husband's family is from the Chengguo Mansion, which makes Cheng Yiyao have some scruples, and now it is better, and when the Wang family becomes the family in the future, it is not easy to say whether this Mama Zhao will be sincere to her, and this Mama Zhao has stayed in the palace by herself, but she has a high self-esteem.
In the end, it was decided that Mama Song would be the housekeeper in Yiyao's yard, and the Duchess asked Mama Su to go to Yao Jingxuan often, and if there was anything wrong, she would tell her.
"This Mama Xu's husband is a doctor, and he also knows some medicinal diets and the like, if the mother doesn't keep her by his side, it can be regarded as a son's filial piety to you!" Mama Xu was originally specially prepared by Cheng Jinghao for the Duchess of Guo, although he didn't think that the Wang family dared to do anything to the Duchess of Guo, but Mama Xu was more at ease with him.
After returning to Yao Jingxuan, Cheng Yiyao sent the maids back, leaving only An Lan and An Ju to serve, and Mama Song, who had just arrived.
"Slave and maid please the eldest lady, the eldest lady is auspicious!" Mama Song gave Cheng Yiyao a big gift in a proper manner, and after the ceremony, Cheng Yiyao smiled and asked An Lan to help Mama Song up.
"Mama is polite, you will be my Yao Jingxuan person in the future, it is not more polite, I will have to rely on you in the future, I am still young, and An Lan and the others are not careless at a young age!" After this big gift, she can be regarded as truly recognizing the master, and in the future, life and death will be her Cheng Yiyao's final say, and if she betrays the master, it will be a capital crime.
"The eldest lady said that, but she was tormented by the slave!" Mama Song said to Cheng Yiyao, and secretly said in her heart that this eldest lady looks not very old, but it is not simple.
"Mama Song didn't know about me when she first came, the things in this courtyard were all handled by Mama Tong before, and now they are managed by a few of their big girls, so it will depend on you to manage it in the future, you can ask them if you don't understand anything!" Cheng Yiyao is still polite to this housekeeper, after all, she is not familiar with what kind of temperament this person is, and she doesn't know herself, so naturally she doesn't know herself.
Not to mention that Mama Song here is beginning to be familiar with the things on Yao Jingxuan's side, Steward Liu's family outside is in a hurry, and the bad things at home have been poked out like this, this is not just a matter of face, her family's errands may be over!
"You son of a! Who made you shout, it's good now, how can this matter be over! Steward Liu gave Liu Lao Er two slaps, although Liu Lao and the other were tall and big, they were slapped back two steps by Steward Liu, who was nearly a head shorter than him.
"You don't want Ma Er, it's not all your own sins!" Steward Liu's family pulled his son and caressed his beaten red face in distress.
"What do you say! If the things that Madame explained are messed up, I think you still have the heart to protect this son! Steward Liu blushed and shouted angrily.
"What's this, it's just a rumor that seriously hurt us, it must be someone from the Sun family who deliberately slandered us, what does this have to do with us!" Steward Liu's voice weakened a little.
Steward Liu was moved.
