The officials in the lobby were all from their two factions, and seeing that the principal had said so, there was naturally no need to continue the noise. apologized to Bai Qiaoqiao one after another, and then left with the gifts they brought.

The eldest grandson Wuji and Wang Jue asked Bai Qiaoqiao again what else Li Mu said. Bai Qiaoqiao only said that there was nothing else to say, and the two didn't ask again, and left with their leave.

The lobby was empty in a blink of an eye, Tang Jian looked at Bai Qiaoqiao, and said apologetically: "Yesterday, there was chaos in the court, and I didn't know what happened, so I didn't say anything." By the time Li Mu vomited blood, it was too late for me to say anything, and I was really ashamed to say it. ”

Bai Qiaoqiao was originally a little complaining, but Li Mu had already explained, and he didn't expect Tang Jian to help him in everything. Bai Qiaoqiao pressed the complaint in her heart and said, "It happened suddenly, I can't blame you." ”

At this time, Zhao Youcai brought in the people from the Ministry of Industry who were squatting outside, and when Tang Jian saw this, he said, "I'll go see Li Mu." With that, he slipped through the side door of the lobby. Thinking of Wang Jue's words, it also stimulated him and made him lose face.

Receiving the people from the Ministry of Works, Bai Qiaoqiao changed to another attitude. Because Li Mu said that the people in the Ministry of Industry have no shares in the two major companies, they must visit sincerely and treat them well. But because Bai Qiaoqiao was not familiar with everyone, and there was nothing to talk about, they chatted a few words, and everyone left gifts and left.

Bai Qiaoqiao sighed.

In the past, when anyone came to the house, it was Li Mu who came forward. Now Li Mu can't come forward, and she has never done anything like this, so she is really not used to it. It's not easy to persevere.

At this time, two maids came to remove the teacup. Bai Qiaoqiao was about to go back to the backyard when she suddenly saw that the two maids were a little confused. couldn't help but stop, there are a total of four maids in this house, which one she doesn't recognize? Why did two raw faces suddenly appear? Could it be that Zhi'en's girl didn't think there were enough people in the house, so she bought two maids to call? No, she couldn't make her own decisions about such a big thing.

Bai Qiaoqiao walked in curiously and recognized it. These two 'maids', aren't they the two sent from the palace last night? How did Wei Zheng's daughter and her maid put on the clothes of the maid in the house and started to live as a subordinate?

Wei Yingluo felt Bai Qiaoqiao's gaze, as if she was being scorched by charcoal, her cheeks were hot, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably. She felt that her self-esteem was rapidly eroding because of what she was doing. The dignified lady of Zheng Guogong's mansion is now working as a maid in the mansion of a county marquis, such a gap is really difficult for her to accept.

"Miss Wei, why did you put on this dress and do the work of a maid, who asked you to do it?"

Wei Yingluo bowed her head and was silent, but Pearl was angry, and said, "Madam, who else can it be, is it ......?"

"Pearl, don't say it." Wei Yingluo was afraid that the pearl would offend people, so she stopped it. She put down the tray in her hand, saluted Bai Qiaoqiao, and said, "Madam, please don't call me Miss Wei anymore, where is Miss Yingluo now." Your Majesty has given our master and servant to the Hou Ye, and they will be the maids of the Hou Mansion in the future. The second lady has already instructed us, we understand the rules, and the lady will call me Xiaoying. ”

"Second lady?" Bai Qiaoqiao frowned slightly, she knew who Wei Yingluo was talking about. But the title of 'second lady' still made her a little unhappy. There is only one lady in this house, and that is herself. She can be good to Li Zhien, but she will not give in to the matter of fame.

Before he could say anything, he saw Li Zhien holding a ring ruler, walked in from the side door of the lobby, and said angrily: "Okay, you Xiaoying, you dare to provoke the relationship between me and my wife, when did I say that I am the 'second lady', in our house, there is only one lady, that is, our Mrs. Qiaoqiao, and there is only one concubine, that is, me." I have always said that I am the master's concubine, I say this in front of my wife, and I say this in front of my wife. How can you slander people for nothing, just like your father? ”

If you talk about lip service, Li Zhien is not afraid of Wei Yingluo, she will prick her wherever she hurts, what Wei Yingluo likes to hear the most, she wants to say.

When Wei Zheng was mentioned, Wei Yingluo and Pearl both showed ashamed looks. They are not shameless officials, and they can say anything for the sake of profit. The two of them, a few days ago, were still carefree ladies and maids, and now they have suffered changes that they did not expect. What Wei Zheng did, they couldn't deny. Li Mu was angry and vomited blood, which was also the truth in their eyes, and they couldn't argue.

But Wei Zheng was her father after all, and Wei Yingluo still couldn't help but say: "I don't know how to call you, so I call you Second Lady." It's definitely not intentional provocation, even if my dad does something wrong, then there is a Hou Ye to deal with, can you not always talk about it, no matter how bad my dad is, it won't be your turn to judge! ”

"Ouch! What a polite lady! One bite of you, but it seems that I have gone too far. Don't forget, my master is still in a coma. But you are standing in the Zhulu Hou Mansion, and you are upset for your father. Don't let me judge, do you? I'm going to judge! Wei Zheng bullied my master, he is not a good person! How? How?! ”

"You!"

Wei Yingluo's eyes turned red, and she couldn't help but shed tears. Bai Qiaoqiao watched from the sidelines, although she felt that Li Zhien was a little excessive. But when she thought that the person she said was Wei Zheng, she didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Li Zhien felt more confident in his heart, shook the ring ruler in his hand, and said, "You slandered me behind your back, this is wrong." You're chasing the Luhou Mansion, and you're upset about your father's villain, which is the second mistake. Stretch out your hand, I'm going to punish you! ”

Pearl stretched out her hand and said, "I'll be punished for my young lady!" ”

"I don't need you to replace you, I haven't talked about you yet." Li Zhien pinched his waist, glared at the pearl, and said, "The rules I just told you were all in vain?" You are now the maids in the mansion, and everything you do must start from the four words 'Zhuluhou Mansion'. Forget who you used to be, can't you remember? ”

Li Zhien pointed at Wei Yingluo and said, "You are not her maid anymore, and she is not your young lady." You are all maids, why did she do something wrong and want you to be punished? How do you live so spineless? ”

"Do I like it?"

"Still stubborn?!" Li Zhien puffed up angrily: "Tell you, no!" This is the Zhulu Hou Mansion, and I will set the rules! After finishing speaking, I remembered that Bai Qiaoqiao was beside me, and hurriedly added: "If the rules I set are wrong, Mrs. will correct me." But before Madame speaks, you'll have to listen to me!" ”

Pearl was indignant and twisted her face to the side in protest.

Li Zhien ignored her and continued: "After talking about her, let's talk about you." You don't distinguish between right and wrong, you help her, this is wrong. Disobedience to discipline, one after another, this mistake two. Ignoring the rules, but also being punished for others, this mistake is three. You will be punished too! ”

"I didn't say that I won't be punished, can't you hit me five times? Don't hit my young lady! ”

"Still called Miss, still called Miss?" Li Zhien glared and said, "Another unruly disobedience, do you want to be beaten four times?" ”

"I ......"

"Pearl, don't say it!" Wei Yingluo finally couldn't help it, stopped the pearl, and whispered: "People are under the eaves, and they have to bow their heads." Hou Ye is not awake now, we can only listen to her, don't fight with her, she will be punished if she wants. ”

As she spoke, Wei Yingluo stretched out her hand, closed her eyes, and looked like she was admitting punishment.

Li Zhien took her hand and said, "I know you're not convinced, but it's okay, I don't need you to be convinced, as long as you obey the rules!" ”

"Smack!"

One time.

Wei Yingluo frowned, but when the ring ruler fell, it didn't hurt as expected. She couldn't help but open her eyes, and secretly said in her heart, this concubine of Li Mu looks fierce, but in fact, she is not so ruthless......

"Smack!"

It hurts to drill the heart! Wei Yingluo couldn't help but scream softly, and then looked at the palm of her hand, which was already red.

Li Zhien showed a cunning look and said: "When I hit someone's hand, depending on the mood, sometimes it's light, sometimes it's heavy, maybe it's heavy, you can't blame me." ”

Wei Yingluo pursed her lips tightly, endured not to cry out for pain, didn't say anything, turned around to pick up the tray, and said: "Please also tell the maid how to call you, the maid is afraid that the name is wrong, and it is deliberately provoked by being dirty." ”

"Sharp teeth." Li Zhien chuckled lightly and said, "You just call me...... Hmm, call me a housekeeper, how about it, you can't get into the loophole, right? ”

"The handmaid remembers." Wei Yingluo made a blessing salute, bowed slightly, and said, "If the lady and the housekeeper have no other instructions, the maid will go down first." ”

"Let's go, let's go." Li Zhien waved her hand and said, she glanced at the pearl who stretched out her hand and waited to receive the punishment, and said, "This housekeeper is suddenly in a good mood, I won't punish you, let's go." ”

Pearl didn't appreciate it, and said, "If you go back to the housekeeper, the maid has made a mistake and deserves to be punished." There is no reason to only punish ...... Xiao Ying does not punish the maidservant, but also asks the housekeeper to treat people fairly, and also punish the maidservant. ”

"Huh! What are you doing against me, aren't you? Good! Li Zhien snorted fiercely, took Pearl's hand, waved the ring ruler, and slapped it hard. Wei Yingluo watched from the side, anxious for the pearl, how painful it was to swing it down so hard! Pearl was also startled, and closed her eyes tightly and did not dare to open them.

Unexpectedly, the ring ruler looked ferociously swung down, and when it was about to touch it, it suddenly slowed down its strength, and the sound of four consecutive strokes was almost inaudible. Pearl opened her eyes, looked at Li Zhien, and asked, "What does the butler mean by this?" ”

"It's been punished." Li Zhien blinked and said, "Didn't this housekeeper say, when I hit someone's hand, I looked at the mood, and when I hit you just now, I was in a good mood, and it was a little lighter." But for the sake of fairness, since the punishment has passed, it has to be counted. Are you lucky that you can't go down and wash the teacup? ”

How did Pearl not know that Li Zhien did it on purpose, but she had no choice at all, so she had to follow Wei Yingluo's example, saluted Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien, and the two went down with the tray together.

Watching the two of them walk away, Li Zhien hurriedly said: "Madam, don't believe their words, I have never called myself Mrs. I scolded them just to be angry with my master, and if my wife felt that it was wrong, I would apologize. ”

"I know what you're thinking, don't apologize, but don't be too harsh, they're all hard-working people. Didn't you listen to what Grandpa Gao said yesterday, her father doesn't want her anymore. ”

"Oh......" Li Zhien pursed his mouth and muttered in a low voice: "But I still think she is not worthy of pity, if it weren't for her, there wouldn't be so many things, and her father was also cheated by her." ”

"Alas, it is not clear who is whom, but there is no harm in being kind-hearted. The husband is fine, better than anything else. How to deal with them depends on the husband's decision. Let's go back and see what food to eat at noon, so that we can entertain my mother-in-law. ”

"Oops!" Li Zhien suddenly screamed and said, "I just patronized and dealt with the two of them, and I forgot about the big thing!" Madame, no. Mrs. Peony is here, with Su Guogong, I just came to tell you this, I was interrupted by the two of them, hurry up, let's go back to the backyard! ”

When Bai Qiaoqiao heard this, he also panicked. She wasn't worried about what Wang Ou would do, she was worried about Li Mulu. You must know that those orange peels are still under Li Mu's pillow, if Cheng Yanjin and Wang Ou see it, Li Muke will be exposed!

The second daughter ran back to the backyard panting, and when she entered the house, she saw that it was okay, Li Mu was still lying there, Sun was sitting on the edge of the bed, Wang Ou, Cheng Yanjin and Tang Jian were all sitting a little farther away. Wang Ou's eyes, although he was staring at Li Mu, didn't seem to see anything.

Seeing the second daughter enter the house, Wang Ou moved his gaze away from Li Mu, paused, and nodded slightly to Bai Qiaoqiao, which was regarded as a greeting. Both of them knew what each other thought, so there was no need to say anything.

Although Li Zhien hates Wang Ou, because of the expansion of the store, he still has to find her to theorize. But in front of Sun, she didn't dare to be presumptuous. Look away from her.

But the Sun family didn't give her such a chance, and saw the second daughter come in. Sun introduced them and said, "Qiaoqiao came over, and Zhien also came." This is Su Guogong, both of you recognize it. This is Mrs. Peony, the younger brother-in-law of Su Guogong, and one of my sisters, call me aunt. ”

“……”/“……”

Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien glanced at Wang Ou, and they both saw the embarrassment in each other's eyes. Li Zhien hates Wang Ou to the extreme, how can he call this 'aunt', and Wang Ou doesn't want to take this generation, her affairs with Li Mu are not clear to others, Bai Qiaoqiao is very clear, if Bai Qiaoqiao can call her a sister, she will be very happy, but this aunt will only embarrass her.

Sun didn't know why, seeing that Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien were silent, he was a little displeased, and said, "Why, didn't you hear my words?" ”

When Li Mu, who was in a 'coma', heard this, he knew that he had to 'wake up', otherwise the courtyard might catch fire.

"Uh......"

Li Mu groaned, and sure enough, everyone's eyes instantly turned to him, and no one cared about the question of what to call anymore.
