"Miao Ling, is there something wrong?"

"Father, my daughter has seen a lot of slaves today, but none of them are suitable for the Hou Mansion."

"It's just some subordinates who serve people, what's suitable or not!" In the past two days, the Hou Mansion has been short of manpower, and everything is overstretched, and today's lunch dinner was actually due to the lack of manpower in the stove room, and there were four less.

Wu Dehou wanted to get angry, but there was nowhere to sprinkle.

After all, when Qu Miaoling did these things, he agreed.

"Father, can't you be sloppy in the affairs of your subordinates? Isn't the poisoning of your grandmother enough for you to sound the alarm? ”

Wu Dehou was also irritable, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Father, in three days it will be the day when the slave market opens, there are many slaves there, and the quality of slaves is better than that in Yapo's hands, what do you think?"

In the end, Wu Dehou agreed.

Returning to Wanzhen Courtyard and walking on the road, she gently told her that after Liu Gang's family left that day, she came back again, saying that the young lady's great kindness could not be repaid, and she was willing to be a subordinate in the house and repay the kindness.

Qu Miaoling thought about it, then looked at the garden that no one was waiting for, and it looked like a ruined garden, so he said, "Then let him stay in the Hou Mansion and be a gardener in charge of the garden." ’

"Yes."

Gently and joyfully, he went to inform Liu Gang.

That night, it was the weekly dinner party of the Hou Mansion, and everyone arrived.

That day, the Wen family was driven away by Wu Dehou, and she was not angry in her heart, and she brought up the old matter again tonight.

"Old lady, Master Hou, Miao Ling has been busy these days, I'm afraid I'm tired, but the concubine feels that no matter how much effort Miao Ling makes, if she can't make a few masters in the mansion comfortable, it will be useless."

Seeing that everyone's faces were different, Wen continued: "In the past few days, there have been many fewer people in the courtyard of the concubine's body, and even the courtyard has been sent out to sweep the yard. ”

As he spoke, Wen took out the towel and wiped it from the corner of his eye.

"Miao Ling, look at it, your Great Purge is a Great Purge, can't you wait?"

"Mother, if this is too late, can you afford to endanger the lives of your grandmother and father?"

"I-"

"Also, under the management of my mother, the subordinates in the house are more rampant than the other, those who don't work, eat rice, fill their own pockets, endanger the township, everything, by the way, there are also traitors, mother, do you think it is a good thing that these tumors stay in our house?"

"I-"

Wen was speechless.

"Father, Miao Ling thinks that if I don't have an iron and bloody hand, the people below will not believe me, and if those subordinates who take money and don't do anything are still kept, it will still bring bad atmosphere in the mansion, so it is better to cut it ruthlessly, as for those who are left, if they don't work hard, they will all be sent away."

As soon as Qu Miaoling fell, the old lady shouted "Okay".

"As a family member, you should have this courage."

What else can Wen Shi say, he can only honestly bow his head and pick up rice.

After this dinner, Qu Miaoling's words spread among the subordinates.

Of course, the person who delivered the message was sent by the Wen family.

I thought that the subordinates would rebel and make Qu Miaoling ugly, but Wen didn't expect that when those subordinates heard Qu Miaoling's words, they didn't dare to be lazy one by one, for fear that they would be like those who were driven away.

It is precisely because of this that although there is a shortage of people in the house now, they still do their work beautifully.

When Wen saw this, he almost vomited blood.

This Qu Miaoling is really her nemesis!

Why didn't God let the county lord of Huiling take her away when she died.

It also saves her from having to work hard to fight with Qu Miaoling.

Wen rubbed his temples and went to bed.

"Taolei, go and ask me for some soothing soup."

It didn't take long for Tao Lei to come back, and she said, "Madam, the people in the stove room said that Master Li, who can make soothing soup, has been sent out, otherwise, you can drink something else?" ”

For a moment, Wen's brain was buzzing, and she reached out to block the curtain, but her heart was still panicked.

Three days later, the slave market opened, and Wu Dehou sent people to follow Qu Miaoling, and in one morning's effort, he bought all the people needed by the Hou Mansion.

The mansion became full again, and the old lady and Wu Dehou were very satisfied.

Only Wen, looking at a kind of servant kneeling below, her gums clenched.

They all tasted blood.

Her hard work!

In a few days, it was gone!

When she came back from the slave market, Qu Miao was very tired, and just about to go back to the courtyard, Mama Qiao, who was next to the old lady, came and said, "Miss, something happened, come with me to the Buddhist temple." ”

When she came to the temple, the old lady frowned and looked in a very bad mood.

Qu Miaoling hurriedly asked, "Grandmother, but do you have something on your mind?" ”

The old lady sighed.

Qiao Mama hurriedly said: "It's not the Wen family, he actually let his father arrest the second master." ”

Second master?

Qu Miaoling was stunned, but soon he thought that this second master should be the second son of the old lady, but he did not inherit the title and made a living outside.

Now he is also a small official.

"Grandmother, what the hell is going on, you say!"

The old lady sighed again, and finally spoke eloquently.

It turned out that she didn't know what Qu Ting had done.

It's just that Qu Ting's wife came to Xin'er, saying that their master was arrested, and they were all crazy, and they wanted to ask the old lady to help.

The old lady was very anxious when she learned about this, and she heard that it was Prime Minister Wen, wasn't that Wen's brother?

The old lady thought about it and went to He'an Garden.

As a result, Wen pretended to agree, and then mentioned Qu Miaoling's marriage in a roundabout way.

"What do you mean? Threaten me? The old lady's face turned cold.

Wen Shi acted as if he hadn't seen it, "Old lady, look at what you are saying, the concubine is afraid that you are too late, where do you dare to threaten you, this is not Miao Ling's eyes are approaching the day of Ji Lu, the concubine thinks, now the concubine is Miao Ling's mother-in-law, and her marriage should naturally be handed over to the concubine, don't you say?" ”

"No, absolutely not."

This Wen clan has a knife hidden in her smile, it is not a good thing, she can't let Miao Ling jump into the fire pit.

Seeing the old lady's resolute tone, Wen Shi changed her voice and said, "In this case, old lady, then in this way, if you can let Miao Ling marry earlier, it's okay!" ”

What the?

The old lady wondered, what kind of calculation did this Wen family have.

She left He'an Garden and bluntly rejected Wen.

Qu Miaoling listened to it all and fell into deep thought.

After the old lady's words were finished, Qu Miaoling was thinking in her heart, what did this Wen mean?

Could it be that —

She thought that if she drove herself out of the Hou Mansion and married her off, she wouldn't be able to fight her?

Dream!

The old lady saw that Qu Miaoling was thoughtful, and she secretly thought about it in her heart, she could figure out Wen's intentions without thinking too much.

Her son wants to be saved, and she doesn't want Wen to succeed.

If Qu Miaoling is really married, I am afraid that the Wen family will deal with him immediately.

has been fighting wits and courage with the Wen family for many years, and she and her can only be said to be evenly matched, and sometimes, she is still afraid of the Wen family.

But since Qu Miaoling returned home, the Wen clan couldn't be happy with the gods to deal with him, and the Wen clan had no other means than poisoning himself.

Therefore, she will not let the Wen family wish, and she feels that Qu Miaoling has a way to solve the matter of An Rutang last time, and maybe she can still have a way this time.

Thinking like this, the old lady asked, "Miao Ling, what do you think should be done?" ”

"Grandmother, for today's plan, only Miao Ling has to go to Ganzhou."

"Are you going to Ganzhou?" The old lady was a little hesitant, "But you have no excuse to go!" ”

"Grandmother, rest assured, there is a famous Huaide Temple in Ganzhou, which is very effective, I will go to repay my mother's vows, and my father will agree."

The old lady thought about it and thought it was feasible.

"Grandmother, there is one more thing, then Wen's you stabilize first, let her not jump off the wall in a hurry."

"Okay, but if you want to stabilize the Wen family, you can only agree to her request, in case you don't find out, won't you have to get married?" The old lady said anxiously.

"Grandmother, don't you believe me?"

The old lady was still hesitant and muttered for a long time, but she still agreed, "Okay, just listen to Miao Ling." ”

Coming out of the old lady's courtyard, Qu Miaoling went straight to Wu Dehou's study.

"Father, seeing that the anniversary of her mother's life is approaching, the daughter wants to repay her mother's vows, and the place has been chosen, which is the Huaide Temple that her mother went to before her death."

Wu Dehou did not doubt that he had him, and agreed.

also specially advised, "Miao Ling, your mother is dead, and I also regret that my father is busy with official business, so I can't accompany you." ”

"The daughter can save it, the father can rest assured, your concern for the daughter will definitely be brought."

Wu Dehou nodded, and Qu Miaoling went out.

Walking out of the study, Qu Miaoling paused for a while, she thought about Wu Dehou's fake appearance just now, even the old lady said that Wu Dehou was very dedicated to her mother, but she could taste the taste of conspiracy.

Here, the old lady also asked Wen to call over.

"Old lady, have you thought it through?" As soon as Wen sat down, he couldn't wait.

"Wen, your brother is the prime minister of the dynasty, it seems that this Hou Mansion will be yours in the future!"

The old lady sighed and said this, which made the Wen family happy, but she still refused: "Old lady, what did you say, this Hou Mansion will always belong to the Hou Ye and the Qu family." ”

The old lady sighed secretly, "I'm old, I can't take care of it, don't worry, Miao Ling will find a way to let her marry off." ”

When Wen heard this, he was even more happy.

Coming out of the temple happily, Wen was almost jumping on his feet.

She felt that the sky had finally cleared up after being hazy for so long.

Qu Miaoling's stumbling block is finally gone.

She walked to He'an Garden in a comfortable mood, and on the way, she couldn't help but think that if she took this opportunity to make Qu Miaoling disappear.

That night, Wu Dehou announced in front of the big guys that Qu Miaoling would go on a long trip.

When Wen heard this, he thought about it.
