Zhihua whispered: "Grandma doesn't know, Aunt Jin and Chen Yuejiao's mother and daughter have already lived in Dexin Courtyard behind us. - It was the old lady who personally ordered them to clean up, and gave them four big maids, eight little maids, and eight sweeping mothers-in-law to serve. ”

Du Hengshuang's eyebrows gradually twisted.

The inner courtyard has added a new courtyard, and so many maids and women have been sent to serve it, it's not a trivial matter, but no one has come to inform her?

Du Hengshuang's face paled, he reached out and stroked the mutton fat jade double-core orchid hairpin on his head, and ordered: "Go and call the second brother and sister to come over, I have something to ask her." ”

Knowing that the painting should be answered, he went out of the city and ordered someone to invite the second young grandmother to come over.

Guan Yunlian happened to be watching people pack up her things in Aunt Jin and Chen Yuejiao's Dexin Courtyard, and when she heard that Du Hengshuang sent someone to invite her over, she didn't take it seriously, and went over with a smile.

When she came to the Dongnuan Pavilion in the main courtyard, she saw Du Hengshuang sitting on the Arhat bed under the south window with her waist up, Guan Yunlian hurriedly stepped forward to salute and asked with a smile, "Is there anything wrong with my sister-in-law?" ”

Du Hengshuang was also not polite, and asked bluntly: "I heard that the Dexin Courtyard behind me has been cleaned up?" What the hell is going on? ”

As soon as she heard that it was this, Guan Yunlian said nonchalantly: "Oh, my mother ordered me to clean it up and live with my aunt and cousin." ”

Du Hengshuang glared at her, waiting for the following.

Guan Yunlian had nothing to say, and asked with a smile, "Is there anything else to do with my sister-in-law?" ”

Du Hengshuang tapped the small table of Nanmu girdle beside him with his fingers, and said in a deep voice: "Clean up a yard, and dispatch people." Both the treasury and the ledger are required. These two pairs, I remember I didn't give you, how did you behave? ”

Guan Yunlian froze. She did not think of going up to the pair of cards at all, and when she ordered her subordinates to clean up the yard, take the furnishings from the storeroom, and send the maid over, no one asked her for the pair of cards. She commanded, and the people below followed.

Guan Yunlian was embarrassed and speechless.

Du Hengshuang asked again, "How did you act?" ”

Guan Yunlian saw that she couldn't hide, so she said hesitantly: "...... No pairs were used. ”

Du Hengshuang's fingers stopped motionless on the low table. It was a long time. Only then did he ask, "Didn't use a pair?" - You make it clearer. How do you get furnishings from the warehouse without a pair? Went to Qu's mother to mobilize manpower? ”

Qu's mother is in charge of the dispatch of the people in the inner courtyard of the Xiao family. After taking the pair of cards to her, she dispatched people according to her master's instructions, and then wrote a handwritten handwriting. Sent to the ledger with the pair of cards. The people in the account room are good to keep the accounts. Because manpower involves the distribution of monthly money. There are a certain number of cases in each yard, more here, less there. It's not what anyone wants to do.

It can be said that these two aspects are the two departments with the largest management of the inner court, that is, the right to property and the right to personnel.

Du Hengshuang, as the main mother of the inner courtyard of the Xiao family's big house, has no ward for such two big things. And if there is no one to ward her, she will forget it, the problem is that under the premise that there is no one to ward her, these two things have been completed, and this is a big problem.

Du Hengshuang sank his face, "If the second brother and sister don't say it, I have to take back the stewardship of our big house." ”

Guan Yunlian was a little uneasy when she saw that Du Hengshuang was so unkind. She and Du Hengshuang are the same people on the cards, but looking at the tone in which Du Hengshuang talks to her, it is the same as training people......

"Sister-in-law, don't tell me this. I'm just on errands. I will do what my mother tells me to do. Nothing is self-contained. Guan Yunlian saw that her cousin Chen Yuejiao fell into the eyes of the crown prince and the crown princess, and knew that she would have to climb the high branches sooner or later. The cousin climbed the high branch, and he would definitely take care of himself, Guan Yunlian's backbone was a little stiffer, and it was not as good as before.

Du Hengshuang took a deep breath and said lightly: "I didn't say that I couldn't do it. It's just that there is a charter for everything, otherwise what are we going to do with the cards in our house? Everyone is red-mouthed and white-toothed, and they can empty this house by talking about it. - Second brother and sister, did you say? ”

She wasn't angry that she cleaned up the yard for someone else to live in, she was just shocked that these pairs of cards in her hand were actually inappropriate.

"This matter, it can't be like this, I'm going to see my mother and tear this matter up clearly." Du Hengshuang stood up as she spoke, without meaning to calm things down.

Guan Yunlian was even more disdainful, pursed her lips, took a handkerchief and printed it on her lips, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I advise you to inquire clearly and then go to your mother to ask for guilt." - We cleaned up the yard, not for my cousin, but for His Royal Highness the Prince. The whole house understands this reason, so as soon as the mother instructed, the housekeeper and daughter-in-law of the treasury and the account room did not shirk it, but hurriedly cleaned up the yard within a day. One day late is to snub His Royal Highness the Prince...... of people. ”

When Du Hengshuang heard this, he smiled, nodded and said: "I haven't seen you for a few days, I didn't know that there was a person from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in our house, this hat is not small, I want to see who got the prince's green eyes." Our Xiaojia Temple is small and can't accommodate such a big Bodhisattva. As he spoke, he had to go outside.

Ou Yangniang heard the words inside outside the door of the Moon Cave, glared at Zhihua fiercely, and said in a low voice: "You told the eldest young grandmother?" ”

Zhihua's face turned white in fright, and he said with his hands behind his back: "I...... I...... I didn't know that the prince was involved......"

Ou Yangniang paused, Zhilu Dao Zhihua has been serving Du Hengshuang in the inner room these days, and occasionally goes out, but only goes to the small kitchen, or goes to the general manager Xiao Yi in the outer courtyard to ask if there is any news of the uncle, and I don't know anything else.

Aunt Jin and Chen Yuejiao's move to Dexin Courtyard was also something she occasionally learned about when she went out today. At that time, Du Hengshuang hurriedly went back and forth, and he didn't have the time to inquire carefully.

"Forget it, I don't blame you. They are also too deceitful. Ou Yangniang said, the matter of this inner courtyard, either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind, in short, the young grandmother can't be fooled on key issues.

Guan Yunlian saw that Du Hengshuang insisted on going to Long Xiangye to talk about it, and her face was even more ugly. shook the handkerchief and said: "I advise my sister-in-law to save a little, don't overdo it, it's not good to hurt the child." ”

Du Hengshuang hates others talking to children the most, and now when she hears Guan Yunlian say this, she is even more annoyed, no longer polite to her, and said coldly: "That is the case, I have been tired of my second brother and sister in the past two months, please hand over all the cards and give me the knowledge in the house." Our big house won't trouble the second brother and sister. ”

Guan Yunlian pursed her lips. "My errand was ordered by my mother. You have to refuse, just go talk to your mother. Saying that, he went away on his own.

Du Hengshuang was sullen for a while, stroked his forehead with his hand, and was quiet in the room for a while. Only then did he raise his voice and say, "Prepare a sedan chair for me." Bring all pairs. and called the wives of the housekeepers in the inner courtyard to wait outside Xuanrong Hall. ”

Zhihua saw that Du Hengshuang wanted to deal with this matter with great fanfare, and he also felt that it was inappropriate. came in with Ou Yangniang and persuaded her: "Grandma, you are heavy now, let's let it go first, and then deal with it when the child is born." ”

Du Hengshuang disagreed, shook his head and didn't allow it, "No." It's because I'm pregnant, and I can't relax the management of the inner hospital. You have all heard what Su Su said. When a woman gives birth to a child, one foot is in the yin and the other is in the yang, and if there is a slight difference, the child and I will be doomed. - I can't afford to pay this price. Clean up the yard, now you look at it may be a small thing. But in my opinion, it's a big deal. The fact that these people were able to do these things around the pair shows that they don't take me seriously. If I don't clean them up, I don't know what kind of mess I will make when I have a weak child in the future. This time, it will not be spared. ”

Ou Yangniang and Zhihua didn't think so far, "It won't be so serious, right?" ”

Du Hengshuang was so anxious that Venus in front of him jumped up, leaned on the table and gasped: "Why can't it be so serious?" The reason why I agreed to my second brother and sister to come to the big house to manage the house was because I had a pair of cards in my hand, and the power was in my hands, so I was relieved to let an outsider take care of the house. If I have a pair of cards in my hand, what is my place in this house? What are the rules for acting up and down in this house? This matter is not easy to rectify, in the future, anyone can go to the warehouse to get things, and anyone can let people in at will, think about it, how serious are the consequences?! ”

Rising to this point, Ou Yangniang and Zhihua both gave in.

Du Hengshuang sat in a warm sedan chair, Zhihua hugged all the pairs of cards, and followed to the Xuanrong Hall of Longxiangye.

Long Xiangye was touching dominoes with Aunt Jin, Chen Yuejiao, and Long Shuzhi. Guan Yunlian looked at the cards beside Long Xiangye.

I heard that the grandmother was coming, and several people didn't mean to stop.

"Let her in." Long Xiangye smiled and played a wind.

"Bump." Chen Yuejiao smiled and said with a smile, and also threw out a pair of winds.

Du Hengshuang walked in with his stomach up, bypassed the large screen with openwork peony patterns on rosewood, and saw the four people on the card table fighting cards intently.

"I've seen my mother-in-law." Du Hengshuang bowed slightly.

Long Xiangye didn't raise his head, "um", and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Du Hengshuang smiled patiently: "Mother-in-law, the people in the inner courtyard are a little unruly, I am here to inform my mother-in-law, I need to rectify it." ”

"Oh?" Long Xiangye tilted his head and glanced at Du Hengshuang, "Is there such a thing?" I don't think so. The descendants of our Xiao family, all of whom understand the rules very well, I don't know where you mean the people who don't understand the rules? ”

Du Hengshuang's finger at Long Xiangye scolded Huai for a long time, her left ear went in, and her right ear came out, anyway, she came over, just to give a notice, not to ask for Long Xiangye's consent.

"Mother-in-law, here's the thing. The rules of our Xiao family's inner courtyard are to open the warehouse to take things, and to dispatch people, and we must have two-color tokens before we can act. But I heard that a few days ago, when Aunt Jin and the Chen family sister were cleaning up the Dexin Courtyard, those subordinates could take things from the treasury casually without matching cards, and they could also add more people at will without matching cards in the tent. It's really dangerous to do this, so I'm going to talk to my mother-in-law. Such a self-asserted subordinate, our Xiao family can't stay. ”

Long Xiangye didn't know about it. She just gave orders, and Guan Yunlian carried them out, so she glanced back at Guan Yunlian and asked, "Yunlian, what's going on?" ”

Guan Yunlian didn't expect Du Hengshuang to really come over and say it, she wasn't afraid of her, and said with a smile: "Mother, if you command, it is a real pair of cards in our backyard, where do those subordinates still need to see other pairs of cards?" As soon as I heard that it was the old lady's order, I immediately did it. Again. This matter is not only the face of the mother, but also the face of the prince, the descendants of our Xiao family, all of them are better than monkeys, you don't need to say more, they all know where the wind is blowing. ”

Chen Yuejiao has been silent, and when she heard this, she realized that it was because of her own move to the yard, and she immediately made a sincere and frightened look. He said softly, "Old lady." Why don't we move back? ”

Long Xiangye's face sank, and he stiffened his neck and said, "What are you moving?" It's not a big deal, I speak, can't I be the master? ———— ignore her. ”

Du Hengshuang knows that the dragon fragrance leaf has always been left-handed. I had to persuade patiently: "Mother-in-law." It's not that I don't agree to move the yard for Aunt Jin and the Chen family's sisters. Rather, those subordinates made their own decisions, and without my consent, they opened the treasury and took things without my consent. and people into the inner courtyard. If this unhealthy wind is not stopped, the consequences are really worrying. Saying that, Du Hengshuang instructed outside: "Let those housekeepers come in, and bring me a big brazier in." ”

Long Xiangye frowned, and was about to speak, looking at Du Hengshuang's upright stomach, swallowing the words again, and silently threw another card.

Chen Yuejiao was secretly funny, her face was still at a loss, she frequently made mistakes, and she also put a gun on Long Xiangye, so that Long Xiangye played the card.

Long Xiangye couldn't help but look at Chen Yuejiao more pleasing to the eye.

Du Hengshuang ordered someone to remove the screen in the middle of the upper room, put the big brazier in front of him, and then said to the eight housekeepers who came in one after the other: "Let you come over today, there is something to say." A few days ago, I heard that there is no need to use the right cards, and opened the treasury to take things, which one has such a big face? ”

The lady of the Wang family, who was in charge of the treasury, was startled, and quickly knelt down and said, "The eldest young grandmother, it is the second young grandmother who said that the old lady has an order......

Du Hengshuang said coldly: "The old lady is a Buddha-like person, charitable and generous, but even if you have no rules, you are getting more and more out of rules." I did something wrong and used the old lady as a raft! - Let me ask you, you said that the old lady said it, do you have a certificate? If you don't have a certificate, no one will know if you empty the warehouse under the banner of the old lady in the future! ”

Long Xiangye was originally very dissatisfied with Du Hengshuang's fuss, but now when she heard what she said, she felt that it made sense, so she kept silent and watched how she handled the matter.

The lady of the Wang family was detached by Du Hengshuang's big hat, and hurriedly kowtowed: "The young grandmother has wronged the slave!" Give the slave and maid great courage, and the slave and maid don't dare! ”

Du Hengshuang said lightly: "Maybe you don't dare now, but in time, who knows if you dare in the future?" - The house rules clearly state that the treasury takes things, and the manager needs to match the cards. If you don't see the right cards, you can take something from the treasury, so you don't tell you. A thief who doesn't tell you, do you know the way? ”

The lady of the Wang family hurriedly shouted: "The slave maid also wants to pass the right cards, but the second young grandmother said that one is the old lady's order, and the other is for the people in the prince's heart, where does the slave dare to disobey?" ”

Du Hengshuang smiled, "If you don't dare, you can come back and forth to me." But if you don't, it means that you are very bold. - I don't dare to use such a slave. Come! Du Hengshuang called, and the two mothers-in-law she brought from the main courtyard walked up.

"Take out the identity deed of the Wang family and hand it over to the chief manager Xiao Yi of the outer courtyard, just say that it is my words, sell this Wang family to Renyazi, we can't afford such a bodhisattva-like housekeeper."

The lady of the Wang family was so frightened that her whole body trembled, crying with a handful of snot and tears begging for mercy, but Long Xiangye, Guan Yunlian and Chen Yuejiao, as well as Aunt Jin, none of them helped her intercede.

The remaining stewards who were related to this matter were also frightened, and knelt down one by one and kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Du Hengshuang said: "You are all optimistic about it today." This is all the pairs of cards of the Xiao family, I am burning today, and the new pairs will be used in the future, and the old pairs will be invalidated. As she spoke, she threw the pair of cards she was holding into the brazier.

The pairs were made of bamboo, and they quickly burned up, sending up puffs of black smoke.

Du Hengshuang ordered someone to carry the big brazier to the open space in the courtyard and burn it.

Everyone looked at the pairs of cards that turned into ashes, and finally realized that this young grandmother who always seemed to be smiling and soft-speaking was not easy to mess with, and did not dare to make quibbles.

Du Hengshuang developed the daughter-in-law who was in charge of the account room, and Qu's mother, who was in charge of the manpower, and said to the rest of the housekeepers: "You have all seen today's events. If you do something wrong, you will be punished. You have nothing to do with it, and I won't be angry. In the future, remember that the rules are the rules, and if you don't follow the rules, the three families who resold them are your lessons from the past. ”

This vigorous and resolute action can be regarded as Du Hengshuang's first appearance.

The subordinates of the Xiao family no longer dared to disobey Du Hengshuang's words.

Guan Yunlian trembled when she saw it.

Du Hengshuang is really ruthless. Just because she refused to return the pair to her, she actually burned all the pairs!

In the future, the inner courtyard of the Xiao family will use a new pair of cards, and she, the "escrow officer", will leave if she does not leave.

Long Xiangye took a look at the rest of the housekeepers, remembered what Du Hengshuang said before, and felt that he also wanted to give them a powerful look. - She had tasted such a thing as a slave bully. It's not bad to let Du Hengshuang be a "wicked person", at least it can deter those subordinates who are about to move......

Guan Yunlian refused to let Du Hengshuang succeed, bit her lower lip, changed her smile and said: "Sister-in-law, you don't know, these subordinates are used to being red and white." It's just because they all know that my cousin is the prince's heart, so they ignored the previous rules and rushed to clean up the Dexin Courtyard and let my cousin live. You have to know that although the rules are big, can they be bigger than the prince? ”

Chen Yuejiao was bent on using the prince to restrain Du Hengshuang, and was busy making a shy appearance in response to the situation, and said angrily: "Cousin, what are you talking about? It's not like that, the prince just cares about me......"

Du Hengshuang calmly took over the conversation and said lightly: "This is the second thing today. Since the prince's sweetheart is in our house, we really can't afford such a big responsibility. - Come, prepare the car, and send Miss Chen to the East Palace to reunite with the prince! ”
