Chapter 303: Joy (Supplement)
It's the New Year again, this year is the first reunion year after Shu Yao and Nangong Miao returned to Beijing, and the Lianghou Mansion naturally attaches great importance to it. Fortunately, the chief housekeeper and several chief stewards in the house are capable, they are all people who work hard, and Nangong Yuzhen, Aunt Mei, Mother Ke and others are on the side to assist, which really makes Nangong Miao a lot easier.
Early in the morning, Uncle Kui drew up a list of New Year's gifts and a school team with different gift specifications, Nangong Miao only changed two places, and said with a smile when he returned it to Uncle Kui: "Uncle Kui, you are busy in and out of the mansion all year round, you have to pay attention to your body, and next year you will find two big stewards or second stewards to help you, don't help yourself, otherwise I will be worried." ”
Uncle Kui, the big housekeeper, is really a veritable "big" housekeeper, Jin Xida and Shujie are busy with official business, there is no extra effort, the book is still small, busy reading and practicing martial arts, although he likes business affairs, he will also read the general ledger, listen to returns, and make strategies, but his time and energy are limited, and Uncle Kui is still in charge of most of the big and small things inside and outside the house.
It's okay in the house, there is Aunt Mei here, and the two housekeepers can find Aunt Mei if they have anything. But the affairs of foreign relations outside the house, especially the business, have to rely on Uncle Kui.
The Xia family's business is getting bigger and bigger, and now there are nearly 1,000 shops, plus the sales of dragon fruit and other outputs on the Zhuangzi, even if they are just sitting in the capital to manage as a whole, they are still busy from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Now, in addition to the big shopkeepers and shopkeepers in various places, Uncle Kui already has six chief stewards under him, and there are two small servants who help him run errands.
Uncle Kui listened to Nangong Miao's words, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, grandma, the slave is strong." Minions like to be busy. It's good to be busy. It shows that our Xia family is prosperous. The busier you are, the more energetic you get. The uncle and grandmother arranged so thoughtfully for the slaves, where would they be tired? "He is in the prime of life, and his daughter Zijin is in good health now, and she will also have some self-preservation skills, and she is very happy to be by the girl's side, and she doesn't need him to worry about it. And the main family completely trusts him, lets him do it, and even arranges two little servants to take care of him. Run errands for him, he can live such a face-saving and accomplished life as an official slave, what is there to be dissatisfied with?
After Uncle Kui left, Nangong Miao was also busy and went to Mrs. Jin's courtyard.
Shu Yao also just came over for a while, talking with Mrs. Jin, since Bao'er returned to the Zhangzhu Princess Mansion, the two Hou Mansions are really "too quiet", Shu Yao and Shuwen sisters and brothers are currently the youngest, so they have to take on the heavy responsibility of entertaining their relatives in colorful clothes. Originally, there was also a two-year-old Xiu Tao in the house. Just cultivated into a delicate little cutie under the knees of Mrs. Jin.
But although the little girl is not yet twelve years old, she is not delicate at all. I don't like to be cute, my biggest interest is to flip through the account book with one hand, and pull the abacus beads with the other hand, and her little face is more serious than Mrs. Jin. Even Mrs. Jin felt that if she didn't hurry up and let the little girl go back to the account room to keep accounts and dial the abacus beads, her old man's heart would not be able to bear it.
At this time, Shu Yao accompanied the old lady to listen to gossip and interesting stories, and heard that a major event happened in Murong Mansion, Murong Shangshu suddenly fell ill, and he was very sick, even the divine doctor Gao Mingde shook his head, and some people also said that he didn't know if he could survive the first month.
Shu Yao was secretly shocked, this thing is very strange. At this time in his previous life, Murong Shangshu was not sick, let alone seriously ill. Not only that, until she died in the fire at the end of the year, Murong Shangshu was still alive and well.
Why is there so much of this in this life?
Of course, Shu Yao didn't sympathize with Murong Shangshu and felt that it was a pity that he died. On the contrary, she knew that Murong Shangshu was the most intelligent and powerful person in Murong Mansion, and he was the core source of the Murong family's strategy and tactics. If Murong Shangshu is really dead, then God is really helping her speed up her revenge.
Although Murong Shangshu did not do anything directly to him in his previous life and present life, without Murong Shangshu's acquiescence and support, and without Concubine Li's support, Murong Ziye and Xiao Ding dared to use Tao instead of Li to deceive the Ma family? Dare to risk being caught by the emperor?
Shu Yao glanced at Liu's mother, and was very puzzled.
This news was brought back by Liu's mother, who had just returned home. But is it the information from the nails, or is it really already spreading in the streets?
Mother Liu smiled proudly, the news was the latest information brought to her by Erniu, but, hehe, she just let Erniu and the other two people spread it on the street, so what she said was "spread in the streets and alleys", "There are many discussions", "Someone said...... Some people say...... Others say ...... "It's not a fake either." Come out later, these have already become a reality.
For what? didn't bother with anything, Mother Liu just wanted people to know that Murong Shangshu was "almost gone", and he was about to celebrate the New Year, and everyone cursed and cursed a lot, and if he didn't die of illness, he would be disgusted to death.
The people of the Lianghou Mansion all knew what the Murong family did to their own girl and second master back then, so no one mentioned that the Murong family would be good-mouthed, including the maid and mother-in-law beside Mrs. Jin now. For example, at this moment, Guan Mom took a sip: deserve it! Retribution!
Isn't that retribution? At that time, if the Murong family's calculation was successful, the girl would be a smart and noble lucky star, wouldn't she want to marry the fool of the Ma family on behalf of the girl of the Murong family? And what will happen to the second master, everyone can think of it? Murong Mansion will not let the second master be the eldest son of their family in vain, and inherit their family's property in vain in the future. Then the second master has only two ends, one is death, and the other is stupid and crazy.
Mother Guan pursed her lips and continued: "Good is rewarded with good, evil is rewarded with evil, it's not that you don't report it, the time has not come." Calculating other people's children, their Murong Mansion has been retributioned one after another in the past few years. Dead dead (twins in the stillborn womb of Concubine Li), stupid stupid, disfigured disfigurement. Look, Lord Murong can't close his eyes at ease at this time, right? ”
Everyone was scolding happily, and the maid came up with a snack, which was chicken soup bird's nest.
Who knew that as soon as Nangong Miao scooped a spoonful and brought it to his mouth, he frowned and retched, frightening the maid who brought the snacks.
Shu Yao was also startled, but soon secretly rejoiced, in her previous life, she found out that she was pregnant, and she smelled the smell of chicken soup and began to retch like this. Of course, she didn't dare to show joy at this time, she was still a thirteen-year-old little girl who had not yet come out of the cabinet, where could she think of this? But it doesn't matter, there is a righteous grandmother here, and there are also these essences such as Guan Ma and Liu's mother.
Sure enough, the next moment, I saw Mrs. Jin and Mother Guan looking at each other and smiling, and Mrs. Jin instructed Red Sleeves: "What are you panicking, hurry up and ask someone to invite Langzhong." ”
Hearing the word "Lang Zhong", Shu Yao suddenly remembered one thing: "Lang Zhong? Grandmother, Brother Gao happened to be here today, and the two of them were in the study. ”
Mrs. Jin patted her thigh and said happily: "Exactly, exactly, with the divine doctor in the house, what kind of Lang Zhong is invited?" Hurry up, go to someone quickly, invite the uncle and the high god doctor, maybe you all have a reward today. ”
A few maids looked surprised and confused, the eldest grandmother was sick, and there was a silver reward?
Red Sleeves didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly ran out of the old lady in person, not caring about the old lady's last words. Their grandmother has always been in good health, and chicken soup and bird's nest are often eaten, why did it suddenly become like this? What's really wrong, the people who are waiting around them are to blame, and what is the reward?
Nangong Miao vomited very uncomfortable, she just rinsed her mouth and vomited, and she didn't have the heart to ponder the old lady's words.
Shu Yao was really not in a hurry at all, and she was afraid that she would not pretend to be like her, so she simply didn't speak, stood up and walked to the door of the hall and looked out, looking anxiously waiting for Gao Mingde to come over.
Shujie and Gao Mingde came quickly.
Can it not be fast? Red Sleeves said seriously, his eyes were red, his voice was choked, and he didn't scare Shujie so much, he pulled up Gao Mingde and ran, almost didn't carry the person and flew directly with light power.
Gao Mingde knew that Shujie and his wife had a good relationship, but Shujie put this wife on the tip of his heart, and he didn't dare to delay, he was half-hugged by Shujie, and he could almost feel that he was running "in the air", but he was not so tired.
As soon as he arrived in the living room, Shujie didn't care about the room full of people, so he rushed over and hugged Nangong Miao to check, and saw that her face was pale, but there was no obvious problem, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Gao, I'm sorry for you, hurry up and show her." ”
After taking a few breaths, Gao Mingde didn't dare to rest longer, took a handkerchief and put it on Nangong Miao's hand and began to diagnose the pulse, and after a while, a smile bloomed on his face. (To be continued......)
