After Wen Qingqian left, Wen Rou called Tao Lei and whispered in her ear for a while, Tao Lei's eyes flickered twice, "Madam, we are like this-"

"Do as I am told."

Coming out of Wenrou's He'an Garden, Taolei went straight to Zhuangzi in the suburbs, and half an hour later, Taolei appeared at the door of Zhuangzi.

"Miss Taolei, what kind of wind is blowing you here? But the melons and fruits sent to Shangfu are not enough, and those new ones are coming, and it just so happens that the nearest persimmons are the freshest, so I will let people pick them immediately. Keep that you have taken one bite and want to take a second bite. ”

Zhuangzi steward was full of smiles, looking kind and ruthless, but no one in Zhuangzi knows, Jiang steward is the most kind and hearted, last month there was a man who accidentally stepped on a seedling and was almost beaten to death by him with rattan, when he thought of this, everyone shuddered.

Watching Steward Jiang welcome the peach buds into Zhuangzi, he immediately went to serve tea and pour water with long eyes, and also sent seasonal melons and fruits, all of which were freshly picked, sweet and crisp with water.

"Steward Jiang, your Zhuangzi is doing well!"

"It's all the girl's house." Steward Liu's methods of talking to people and talking about ghosts are very skillful.

Tao Lei glanced at him indifferently, and Steward Jiang immediately said, "There is also the blessing of Mrs. ”

Steward Jiang stretched out his hand and handed the fairly rich purse into Tianlei's hand, "Miss Taolei, a little heart, don't be too little, when the things in the Zhuangzi are sold, I will give a big gift." ”

Tao Lei turned her purse upside down, the expression on her face was a little satisfied, she sat on the top seat, and said in a flat voice: "Steward Jiang, oh this time, I do have something to explain." ’

"Speak, please."

"The eldest lady has returned home, and you must have received the news."

Tao Lei stared at Steward Jiang with burning eyes, and Steward Jiang instantly understood that this was to test him!

He hurriedly expressed his loyalty and said: "Miss Taolei, I have been a steward in Zhuangzi for more than ten years, and I am loyal to my wife, when did you see me eating inside and out?" ”

"Not necessarily." Tao Lei took a bite of chilled watermelon, "This eldest lady is the daughter of the county lord of Huiling, and she is favored by the emperor, can you not be tempted?" ”

She knew that this ginger steward was the most slippery.

"Girl, you wish me, I can't betray Madame, I know very well in my heart, the eldest lady will go out one day and get married, don't I still beg for a living under Madame? Who is my master, I know! ”

Steward Jiang's answer made Tao Lei very satisfied, and she nodded slightly, "It's good that you understand, so Steward Jiang, you can take someone to rest for a while!" ”

Steward Jiang: "Huh? Girl, but I've done something wrong, ma'am—"

"Steward Jiang, you're doing a good job, but now, Madame needs you to shine somewhere else, understand?"

"Understood, understood." Tao Lei couldn't say more, she could guess it.

Looking at the ginger steward with shining eyes, Tao Lei added: "Soon this Zhuangzi will be handed over to Miss, do you want to follow Miss and Mrs. to do it?" ”

"No, no, no, I'll roll up and go home right away."

"Wait, remember, notify the rest of the people on the Zhuangzi, all hurry up, and the monthly money will be issued as it is, double."

Steward Jiang's eyes brightened, and then he heard Tao Lei say, "Yours, three times." ”

Steward Jiang left satisfied, and went to a few shops tied up with Zhuangzi to take a look, said the same thing to the steward, and made a promise that they would definitely come back in the future, and after getting the support of everyone, Taolei hurried back to the house to resume her life, and it was already night.

"Madam, it's all done."

At this time, Wen was eating with her son in Qu Chensi's courtyard, and when she heard this, she raised her head, "No one wants to keep it?" ”

"Madame's grace and might, they don't dare!"

"Then you have to be prepared, you go again tomorrow, let them supervise each other, whoever betrays me, I will let them die without a place to be buried!"

"Yes!"

The next day, Qu Miaoling took Gentle to Zhuangzi, on the way, Gentle got out of the car, when the two met at the gate of Zhuangzi, Gentle followed by a large group of people, including guards and slaves, and maids.

A large group of people arrived, and the Zhuangzi was indeed very quiet, and it seemed that there was no one in the quiet.

"Miss, there doesn't seem to be anyone here."

Gentle walking.

Qu Miaoling asked Guard Liu to push the door, and sure enough, it didn't take any effort, and the door opened as soon as he pushed it.

Sure enough, as she had guessed, Wen had prepared in advance, she thought she would be embarrassed, and she would be uncomfortable looking at the empty courtyard.

Wen, she couldn't be more wrong!

The group of people behind her were all her grandfather King Jing's right-hand men.

How could she Qu Miaoling make an account that she was not sure of!

"Be gentle, arrange them all, and make the best use of them."

"Yes."

After working in Zhuangzi for a day, arranging the people who managed Zhuangzi and the people who stayed behind, Qu Miaoling took people to the shop again, leaving behind those who were good at calculating and doing business.

It's all arranged, it's already night.

Qu Miaoling was tired and simply fell asleep in Zhuangzi.

She thought she would have a good night's sleep, but as it approached midnight, she was awake with her eyes closed.

The excitement in her head prevented her from falling asleep, Qu Miaoling opened her eyes, and gently slept outside, waking up when she heard the sound.

"Miss, are you awake?"

Qu Miaoling hummed, then let her be softly clothed in clothes, and the two of them walked outside.

The sky was clear, there were no clouds, the stars were blinking happily, and even the moon hung like a silver hook in the sky.

A nocturne's mood.

"Miss, look, the sky is so beautiful!"

"yes!"

"Go back to sleep." Gentle was patiently admiring, and she didn't ask much why the young lady couldn't sleep.

Hearing this, she was a little surprised, but she still followed Miao Ling's steps back to the house.

After a few moments, the sound of the young lady's steady breathing was heard softly, and she also lay down and soon fell asleep.

The next morning, Qu Miaoling returned home with a gentle light.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, she ordered, "Gentle, I asked you to investigate all the people in the courtyard, what is the result?" ”

"Miss, there are three people who are acting strangely, and two of them I can be sure are Madame's people."

Qu Miaoling knew that Qingrou had done her best, after all, she was just a quiet maid before, and she would still train special people to do it in the future.

"Gently, hard work."

"Miss, it's a gentle blessing to be able to do things for Miss."

"Gently, I'll tell you one more thing."

Qu Miaoling asked the gentle ear to come over, "You are like this, put those maids-"

Half an hour later, He'an Garden.

Momoxin hurried in, still panting for breath in her mouth.

"Frizzy, whatever." Wen was eating breakfast when he heard the words and said dissatisfied.

"Madam, something happened, and the people we planted in the courtyard of the eldest lady were sent away!"

"What?" Wen was in a hurry, and the chopsticks smashed to the ground, "crackling".

"The slaves and maids saw with their own eyes, they were sent to the carriage, along with our people, and a maid."

"And one more?" Wen gets to the point.

"Yes, there are three of them." Peach heart back.

Wen sat down, and she thought carefully.

If Qu Miaoling found out about the people she had planted, she would have returned them or sent them away, but the extra maid was sloppy for her, or was the girl inserted by someone else, I don't know?

Wen's brows furrowed more and more, "Taoxin, you go and keep an eye and see where they sent people?" ”

"Madam, the slave maid heard from the people in the eldest lady's courtyard that she was sent to work in the Zhuangzi."

Work?

What kind of calculation is this Qu Miaoling?

Qu Miaoling's side, when she came back from her errands gently, she replied: "Miss, everyone has sent them over, so let them work in the stove room?" ”

Isn't that a blatant slap in the face of the lady?

"Of course, you still want them to be around me and poison me?"

As soon as her body was stirred, she immediately remembered the old lady who had been harmed by chronic poison, and she said excitedly: "Miss, then what are we doing with them, we have betrayed them." ”

"Silly girl, let's deal with them, and soon the Wen family will arrange for other people to come in, and she will be more careful not to let us see the flaws, won't we be passive again when the time comes?"

Gently stunned, she thought carefully, yes.

"It's still young lady smart."

"It's not that I'm smart, but I'm embarrassed to hang around in the Hou Mansion if I deal with these jackals, tigers and leopards like them."

"Okay, you're tired too, let's eat."

Gently went out, Qu Miaoling sat alone in the hall, a strange light flashed in her eyes.

Now that the battle between her and the Wen clan has officially begun, let's see who has more means.

It didn't take long for Gentle to come in again and say, "Miss, Young Master Jie sent someone over, saying that he was looking for you to discuss something." ”

"Where to meet?"

"Diancui Building."

"You tell the little guy that I'll be there on time."

Send away the little guy and come back gently.

"Miss, Master Hou doesn't like you to interact with people from the Marquis Mansion of Jingkang, isn't it not good for us to go so openly!"

"It's okay, even if we go, he can't do anything, and he can't lock me up."

"That's so, but don't you offend Master Hou like this? We're really struggling in the Wude Mansion. Gently and patiently.

"Gentle, I know you mean well, but we're not without help!"

"You mean the old lady?"

Qu Miaoling nodded.

"But the old lady used to say to you—"

"You also said it, that was before," Qu Miaoling interrupted softly and continued, "Even if Wu Dehou has an opinion about me, as long as my grandmother is willing to protect me, the Wen family has to stand aside. ”

Nodded softly and understandingly.

"Let's go, let's go see your grandmother first, and then go to Cuilou in the afternoon."

The old lady was chanting in the Buddhist hall, and when she heard Mama Qiao say that Miao Ling was coming, she greeted her, "You girl, you know how to come to see the old woman." ”

"Grandmother, you are wrong Miaoling, although I didn't come to see you yesterday, I prepared a gift for you."

The old lady was intrigued, "Oh? What gift? ”
