Mrs. Cui twisted her face when she heard this, glanced at him coldly, and asked slowly: "I heard that you and the Nie family have always been good friends, it seems that the big housekeeper you passed away last year, Nie Changfu went around making good things, and sent you a jade horse to congratulate, saying that I wish you success in the horse." ”

As soon as the big housekeeper Cui heard this, his heart was about to jump out, this eldest lady is really a hidden person, don't look at who she never reprimands too much, but now it seems that the accounts in people's hearts are clear.

You know, Nie Changfu is not a fool, and he will make a drum and a cane when he gives a heavy gift, but it was sent over quietly the night before, such a secret thing could not be hidden from the eyes of the master, he instantly thought about countless possibilities, and thought hard, did he do anything unruly?

I don't want to know this, at first in retrospect, Steward Cui was almost scared to death by himself!

This seems to be the past in his hands, and there are a lot of bull's hairs, but Steward Cui has been sitting in this position for some years, so maybe everything is according to the rules, and there is nothing wrong with it?

The knees of his legs were weak, and he knelt down with a pop, and kowtowed again and again to justify: "Back to Mrs., it's right that this Nie Changfu gave the slave a jade horse, but we are all slaves in the house, and it's not good to slap your face and say no, no?" ”

"But at the beginning of this year, when his daughter-in-law gave birth to four children, he returned a white jade Guanyin back, which was definitely not cheap at all, and there were more than that."

"If Madame doesn't believe it, let it be thoroughly investigated."

When he said this, he was sweating in his head, and he was glad that he didn't have much friendship with the Nie family, he was a big housekeeper, and only one oil and water in the outer courtyard was enough for him to eat, and he still needed to participate in the inner courtyard again.

It seems that he is not greedy enough this time, but he saved his life!

Don't look at Steward Cui kneeling on the ground for such a short time, but people's brains are spinning fast, just like this for a while, he figured it out, his eldest lady is going to clean up the inner courtyard nine times out of ten, and this has nothing to do with him.

Her old man's house can't be cleaned up together in the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard, right? In this case, I'm afraid there is still a place to use yourself!

As long as I do my best to help with errands, I don't show favoritism at all, and I don't want to set an example for the people in the courtyard, but also show my heart to the master by the way, thinking about it, this disaster will not affect me.

But after that, you have to quickly figure out the end of your hand, stop it quickly, and honestly don't toss around, otherwise, your fate will be no different from the Nie family.

When Mrs. Cui heard what he said, she snorted coldly, "It's done, you family children, what do you like to play on weekdays, don't be the ones who are the masters of the world, I just watch you do your best on weekdays, turn a blind eye, you want everyone to get by, right?" ”

"But what is this, it has to have a boundary, if you cross this limit and don't grasp this degree, then even if the master is compassionate, you won't end well, you know?"

"Yes, the slave knows, the slave understands, and the slave doesn't dare." Butler Cui will just reply to show his loyalty, how dare he defend himself?

Mrs. Cui said this, nothing more than to deter the big housekeeper Cui, lest this slave do his errands, he favoritism, and the big housekeeper Cui didn't intend to show favoritism, he really can't afford to compensate his own family for the Nie family, these people, their brains are more shrewd than the other, and they know when and what attitude to deal with.

Seeing that her fire was almost burning, Mrs. Cui said coldly: "I don't want to listen to your poor talk, since you said that you have no deep friendship with the Nie family, then okay, the big housekeeper, you might as well use practical actions to show Mrs. Ben." ”

Butler Cui hurriedly answered, "Yes, Madame can only tell me if I have something, and the slave will do my best to handle it for you." ”

Mrs. Cui was not in a hurry when she arrived, she picked up the jade cup on the table, and ate the crisp cheese with a spoon one bite at a time, but after three or four mouthfuls, she frowned and put down the spoon, "This sugar steamed cheese is good, but it is too much to block the heart, Cui Rong, I will reward you." ”

Butler Cui's body trembled, but he soon knelt upright, as if Mrs. Cui's seemingly unintentional words had no effect on him.

Mrs. Cui is still quite satisfied with the calmness of this big housekeeper, a dignified master, but whenever she sees something, she panics like a soft-footed chicken, so what's the matter?

She wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and then said with a little surprise: "Yo, why is the big butler still kneeling?" Hurry up, you are in our Cui family, that is the right hand of the master, and I can't leave it for a moment, how dare I accept such a big gift from you? ”

Hearing this, the big housekeeper Cui stood up and said curtly: "Accept, accept, the slave is the slave of you and the master, why can't you stand it?" You're a slave to that. ”

Seeing that her beating was quite successful, Mrs. Cui said lightly: "You will let people keep an eye on the courtyards of the Nie family and the Shu family, and even the yards they privately purchased outside, from now on, if their family transfers anything out, even if it is a needle, I will count it on your head." ”

"When the time comes, it is indispensable that all of them will return to the old lady, and at that time, they will use the family law and severely punish them, and no one will want to escape!"

Mrs. Cui said this, paused, probably because she felt that she couldn't help but be angry, and she lost her temperament a little, and regained her calm tone, and mentioned to the big housekeeper Cui, "I hope the big housekeeper can see the road under your feet clearly, don't make a mistake, slip, then it will be worth the loss." ”

"Yes, the slave must have opened his eyes to see clearly, the Nie family and the Shu family can't even fly out of the mosquito, the eldest lady just take a look." Butler Cui wiped his sweat with his sleeve and said secretly: "The good days of the Nie family and the Cheng family are over. ”

"Alas, it's no wonder that the eldest lady has such a big temper, most of the industries that their family has made up their minds are the properties of the first second lady, and even the eldest lady is just in custody, and you two are just slaves, and you have crossed the master, which is really bold."

Cui Yongxin has been busy with business recently, and he has been bothered a lot, and when he returned to Cui's mansion, all parts of the mansion were already in charge.

After most of the afternoon, Mrs. Cui's heart was even more innocent, and she vowed to take this opportunity to rectify the Dongfu up and down, otherwise, if you let yourself go free like this, this guy will not be able to hollow out the Cui family?

"And what do you mean now?" Cui Changxin took a sip of hot tea and asked slowly.

Mrs. Cui looked at her husband's face with a very calm expression, and couldn't help but be infected by Master Cui's calmness, "The concubine has already made a decision, but this matter also involves Mother Shu, who is beside her mother-in-law." ”

"Mother-in-law, she is sick now, she is already depressed, if she comes to such a situation again, the concubine is afraid that her old man will not be able to stand it, so she came to the master to ask for a way."

"What's so hard about that? You will go to my study to do something tomorrow, what to do, mother's side, you just let Fu Hui go to say, just say that Shu's mother has a cold outside, and she has to recuperate at home, hide it for a while, and when she is better, I will go and tell her in person. ”

"This wind of greedy ink can't rise, don't be soft, just do it ruthlessly, set an example for the minions of this house, our family's background, you know, if this wind is not controlled, or ten years, our family will have to be vacated by the slaves first." Cui Yongxin is now chasing the debts owed by the state treasury, and he knows best that officials are greedy for ink, and this greedy and selfish desire will become more and more inflated.

Originally, at the beginning, maybe I just wanted to make my family's life better, but after a long time, it will become a vice, and I can't help but want to be greedy, and eventually it will become a goose plucking feathers.

Recently, this collection of accounts has become more and more smooth, and those who are in the limelight have seen more and more people who have repaid the money at first sight, and they have all begun to follow the trend, and Master Cui's mood is also very good.

Therefore, in this matter, he is very supportive of his wife's strict handling, Cui Yongxin said his opinion, and smiled at his wife with a sigh.

said softly: "My husband is busy with business, family affairs and my mother are all dragging you down, you have also worked hard, if you want me to say, you don't want to be too much about Hao's daughter-in-law, now Brother Tao is more than three years old, and Sister Min is also over one year old, she shouldn't be lazy." ”

"You should have started asking her to help you manage the director a long time ago, think about it, sooner or later, this mess up and down the Cui family is also their husband and wife, just your daughter-in-law, revolving around her own men and children all day long, and she doesn't care at all, can she take on this heavy responsibility?"

"As the saying goes, love a son is like a killer, a stick is a filial son, you are so used to them now, in the future, this little couple will be spoiled, not you and I are two old, and then bring disaster to suffer? It's time to push both of them. ”

Cui Changhao's wife is a childhood sweetheart, that is, the Deng family next door to the Cui family, her father is a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, and the girl she taught is also polite and polite, and she is pampered, and it is difficult to be lacking in housekeeping.

In addition, this young couple will be in deep love, Grandma Cui is on guard all day long, those girls who want to climb the master's bed, and in addition to taking care of a pair of children, how can they have time to help their mother-in-law take care of the house?

Mrs. Cui loves her son and her grandson, and when she saw that her daughter-in-law was devoted to her children and grandchildren, she let her go, thinking that she was not old now, and she could always work for her children for a few more years, so she never forced Grandma Cui.

But I didn't know that my laissez-faire approach actually made my husband have such a big opinion R1152
