Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Seizure of Power
After Jia Min finished speaking, there was silence in the room, and Mrs. Lin and Lin Yun's expressions were not very good, but Jia Min comfortably picked up the bowl, blew it gently, and then took a sip. "It's really a long time to see, my wife's tea here is actually made in cold water." She casually threw the gaiwan onto the table, making a crisp sound, and the gaiwan poured, and the tea flowed down the table.
The tea wasn't too cold at the time, but it wasn't hot either. Jia Min was furious in her heart, the girl here in the main courtyard is too bold, even if she has Mrs. Lin's support, she will give you something to see today.
Before, Mrs. Lin's attitude towards her had changed, and Jia Min only thought that she had not recovered well, she was uncomfortable, and it was not good to complain to her daughter-in-law, so she was closer to her daughter and son. Now it seems that it is not like that at all, it is obvious that she is not pleasing to the eye, and all kinds of difficulties. Damn, if you want to make things difficult for your aunt and grandmother, you have to look at the time, I've been here for almost two years, I've been familiar with it for a long time, I've been familiar with it for a long time, I've already controlled it, my husband is still the original, you want to show your aunt and grandma face now, I'm sorry, we don't accept it.
Mrs. Lin was slightly stunned, she didn't expect that Jia Min, who had always been very docile before, suddenly became threatening, and after choking her and her daughter half to death with a few words, she also dropped the tea bowl in front of her.
She said angrily: "Presumptuous! What are you going to do? Put the majesty of your housekeeper and grandmother here with me? ”
Jia Min bent the corners of her lips, revealing a smile without any warmth, "Mrs. is not feeling well, these sisters and mothers in the main courtyard are not restrained, they are inevitably slack, one by one they either lie and deceive others, or they are too lazy to even serve their masters." I can't complain that my wife is angry with me, it's all my daughter-in-law's fault, I've been too busy for a few days, and I didn't care about cleaning up these two masters. ”
She sneered, her eyes turned around the room, and the big girls in the main courtyard all hung their heads, not daring to meet her eyes. "I'm just free today. I shared my worries with my wife. ”
Mrs. Lin was furious, and the green tendons on her forehead collapsed, "Don't worry about grandma, I will teach my girl." ”
"Don't be angry, ma'am." Lin Yun saw that Mrs. Lin's hands were shaking with anger, and she hurriedly came over to stroke her chest and persuaded softly. He turned his head and glared at Jia Min angrily, "Jia Min, you are very unfilial!" Look at how angry you are with your wife. ”
"Isn't Mrs. angry with the girl next to her, a slave who bullies the master?" She casually took a lily in her hand, "You just served me tea." You yourself say why the tea is cold in the mouth! ”
"Or did the wife tell them to do it?" Jia Min looked directly at Mrs. Lin, I see if you dare to admit it, "Maybe I did something wrong and made my wife angry, and it was my wife who bullied me like this." In this case, I went back to my mother's house and asked my mother to come and listen to my wife's teachings. ”
Mrs. Lin suddenly remembered. Jia Daishan is not dead at this time, the Jia family is still a veritable Rongguo Mansion, and she is about to make trouble, so Jia Min has a bad reputation. Will she be able to please her? Moreover, Jia Min has always won the heart of her son, and even her husband seems to be very satisfied with her. Not to mention the son, even the husband has to blame her.
"Lily. What's going on? She suppressed her anger and turned her head to glare at Lily.
Lily fell to her knees with a thud and kowtowed. "It's all the slave's fault, the slave was negligent for a while, and brought Mrs. Yun's tea to the eldest grandmother." Just now, Mrs. Lin discussed with the eldest girl and wanted to choose two people in the house for the uncle. The eldest girl was the first to point at her, and the wife smiled and said nothing, obviously acquiescing. She was rejoicing when the grandmother came in.
Thinking that she would have to make a living under her grandmother in the future, she wanted to stammer, robbed Qinglian's work, and personally served tea to Jia Min. Unexpectedly, the tea was actually cold, which made the grandmother angry. At this time, Lily no longer understood that she was on the way, and she had been serving Mrs. Lin for so many years. On the one hand, he secretly hated in his heart, and on the other hand, he knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty.
Dare to love or someone else drank the rest and gave it to her, Jia Min sneered: "This is what happened to be a good thing, even the steady sister Lily is in a trance like this!" ”
Mrs. Lin took a long breath, suppressed the anger, eased her complexion, and discussed with Jia Min: "It's not right for me to be my girl today, for the sake of her serving me and always doing her best, let's spare her this time for the time being." If there is a next time, the penalty will be severed. ”
Jia Min smiled: "Mrs. girl, Mrs. has the final say." But ......"
"But what?" Lin Yun looked at it with an unkind face, "Is there a wife in my sister-in-law's eyes, step by step, this is also your system as a daughter-in-law!" ”
Jia Min doesn't bother to pay attention to a girl like Lin Yun who owes her IQ and EQ, she is about to get married anyway, how long can she jump again. Just this pair of Qs, after getting married, she suffered. She didn't even give Lin Yun a look out of the corner of her eye, she just said to Mrs. Lin with a straight face: "Before, when Mrs. was injured, she received a punishment because they didn't serve well. It was only because my wife couldn't leave people around me at that time that I wrote it down, and I said that my wife would get it after she was good. Now, I see that my wife's body is fine, and they have also suffered from it. Small punishment and big precaution, save the next time you are careless. At this point, she deliberately glanced at Mrs. Lin, the meaning of which was very obvious, last time it was your good life, and you came back to life. If something happens again, maybe a little life will have to be hit.
Mrs. Lin obviously didn't know about this, she looked sideways at her daughter, Lin Yun also thought that the incident had already passed, but she didn't expect Jia Min to turn it out at this time. She was also stunned for a moment, and when she saw Mrs. Lin looking at her, she could only nod. Even Lin Hou knew that she couldn't lie if she wanted to.
"Sister-in-law, during the time when my wife was injured, Lily and her sisters served them carefully, and there was no merit and hard work, but the merit should be offset!" Lin Yun had to open his mouth to plead.
"They all said that if you make a mistake, you should be punished. As for serving the wife...... Jia Min turned his eyes lightly, and said lightly: "I chose them to come in, eat and drink well, dress well, and receive monthly money, so that they are more noble than the daughters of ordinary families, isn't it just to let them serve their wives?" This is their duty, and the wife who serves well should do her part, and she should take credit for this? Why? With their big faces! There was really no mercy in his mouth, and Lin Yun's face turned blue and red for a while.
Mrs. Lin said, "I'll forget it." Before the words fell, I heard screams and begging for mercy in the yard, Mrs. Lin got up suddenly, rushed to the door in a few steps, opened the curtain and looked out, a few stout mothers-in-law had already pressed Mama Zhang and Hongrui on the bench, the board had been raised, and they were about to be beaten as soon as they were given an order.
Jia Min said: "Removing clothes and being tortured is the most basic, don't you know? "She is at ease to give the girls in the main courtyard a shock today, and I remember them one by one, even if Mrs. Lin is the lady of the Hou Mansion, she is also the master, and who she wants to clean up is just a matter of one sentence!
These big girls in the main courtyard are pampered on weekdays, in Jia Min's words, that is, the two masters in the Hou Mansion, all of them treat themselves as personal figures, and their arrogance is sunk in their bones, and they don't look down on idlers, especially these girls in the main courtyard. It was as if they were nobler than the people in the Manchu Mansion when they followed Mrs. Lin. Before, Mrs. Lin was kind to her and supported her housekeeper director, and these girls all greeted her with smiles. Once Mrs. Lin changed her attitude, they would first make a tone and praise high and low, which was really hateful.
used to be the people around her, and when they went to the main courtyard to spread legends and send things, they had to suffer some troubles, and they were beaten with words from time to time. When she came over today, she could talk to her without blinking, and told her to stand in the courtyard, which was really unbearable for uncles and aunts, and she didn't give them some color to see, I really don't know who is in charge of the Hou Mansion now and in the future.
"You're going to me off!" Mrs. Lin hammered her chest and scolded, and stroked her chest exaggeratedly, panting heavily.
"What's wrong with you, ma'am?" Lin Yun screamed, pounced with a few girls, and said in tears: "Madam, don't be angry, take care of yourself." What if you get sick, but let your daughter (slave maid)? ”
Jia Min smiled lightly and instructed the people around him: "Go and ask the imperial doctor, even if the wife is sick again." "Aren't you so angry, then ask a doctor.
Mrs. Lin was helped to sit down on a chair, and Lin Yun and a few girls fed water, hammered backs, and stroked their chests, and finally calmed Mrs. Lin down. She pointed at Jia Min: "You...... You...... You get on my knees! From now on, you will leave this house and leave it to ......" Glancing at her daughter, thinking of Lin Hou's words, she paused, "I'll take care of it myself." "I have long wanted to take back the rights of the housekeeper director, and let Jia Min take care of it, I am afraid that the entire Lin family will be moved back to Jia's house by her.
Jia Min also simply: "Okay." However, before the daughter-in-law handed over, she had to deal with the things in hand. She sank down and instructed the girls beside her, "Tell them to do it." Ming'er, I don't care about the house, this offending thing, I will do it at the same time, so as to save my wife from embarrassment. ”
Mo Ju also responded simply: "Yes." "Lift the curtain directly and go out, call the mother-in-law," do it. ”
That's okay too...... Mrs. Lin is so far, there is really no way to take Jia Min, Lin Yun gritted her teeth with hatred, so she could only take the handkerchief, sit next to Mrs. Lin and cover her face and cry, looking like she was bullied miserably.
There was the sound of the board hitting the people in the courtyard, and the mouths of the tortured people were gagged, and only a small whining sound could be heard. Ten boards, not much, after a while, it was over, two people were put down, and two were pressed up, the girls and mothers-in-law in the main courtyard watched, a few close-fitting big girls, were taken off their small clothes, and directly hit the board, and finally even the lilies in the house were dragged out, crackling and beating, everyone was so white as paper in pain, and ashamed of themselves.
Jia Min stood there comfortably, listening that all the punishments had been punished, before turning around with a smile and blessing Mrs. Lin, "After a while, the daughter-in-law will send the girl to send all the account books." "This one, if you like it, you can go, hehe, I'm really not rare. (To be continued......)
