Chapter 878: Rectifying the Hou Gate
Chapter 878: Rectifying the Hou Gate
The sun rises in the east, early in the morning, the Jinyi Hou Mansion up and down was summoned to the outside of the main hall of the Hou Mansion, although the courtyard is still quite empty, but more than 200 people stand in the courtyard, but it is also a little crowded.
Up to Han Shou, the head of the Hou Mansion, and down to the old servants who transported the dung truck, they were all neatly lined up in the courtyard at this time, and the guards in the Hou Mansion were all gathered.
Gu Qinghan was informed by Manager Han early in the morning that Mrs. Tai was going to gather everyone in the mansion in the compound, she was a little nervous, and she didn't know what Mrs. Tai wanted for a while.
Although the old lady has been controlling the affairs of the Hou Mansion, she has not really come forward to manage the housework for at least ten years, and many new servants in the Hou Mansion, although they know that there is a Mrs. Tai in the Hou Mansion, but many people have never even seen Mrs. Tai.
This early in the morning, she suddenly wanted to gather everyone in the house, Gu Qinghan only felt that things were strange, she was very sensitive for a while now, and she was a little nervous when she was a little troubled, and now that Mrs. Tai gathered everyone, she was even more panicked in her heart, and she always felt that the matter might be related to herself.
After freshening up and dressing up, he came to the main hall, and saw that the servants had already gathered in the courtyard, talking about each other, and when Gu Qinghan appeared, everyone immediately calmed down.
Gu Qinghan has managed the Hou Mansion for many years, although he is very generous to his subordinates, but the majesty of the years is not angry and arrogant, which makes everyone respect and fear.
Gu Qinghan frowned slightly, entered the main hall, and glanced at the main seat, it was empty, a little puzzled, at this time Han Shou had already stepped forward and said in a low voice: "The third lady is better?" ”
These days, Gu Qinghan handed over all the chores in the house to Han Shou on the grounds of physical discomfort, and stayed in the courtyard without leaving the house, Han Shou only thought that Gu Qinghan's body was really uncomfortable, so he asked with concern.
Gu Qinghan smiled reluctantly and said, "It's not a big deal." Then he asked, "Hasn't Mrs. Tai come here yet?" Do you want..... I'm going to ask her over? ”
Han Shou said: "Third lady, it was the Hou Ye who asked me to inform everyone in the morning that they all came to the courtyard to gather, saying that Mrs. Tai had something to order, so ......!" ”
"Ning'er?" Gu Qinghan frowned and said, "What about others?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a voice came from behind him: "Is Sanniang looking for me?" I'm here. Gu Qinghan turned around, only to see Qi Ning dressed in brocade clothes and jade belt, walking over quickly.
Compared with usual, Qi Ning's dress today is very luxurious, and he looks refreshed and has a good complexion.
Qi Ning saw Gu Qinghan wearing a light purple thin skirt, a red belt around her waist, and a bewitching and graceful figure.
"Mrs. Tai has something to order?" Gu Qinghan Jian Qi Ning leaned over and asked softly.
Qi Ning smiled slightly, walked to the front door, put his hands behind his back, glanced at the people in the courtyard, his expression suddenly became solemn, and said, "Let you gather together, there are a few things to say." First of all, I want to tell you that Mrs. Tai suddenly had a stroke last night, and now she is ......! ”
Everyone was stunned, and Gu Qinghan was also stunned, but immediately said urgently: "Mrs. Tai..... Mrs. Tai had a stroke? ”
Qi Ning bowed slightly, and said, "Sanniang doesn't need to worry, there is nothing big about it right now." It's just that Mrs. Tai told me a few things, so that I must do a good job, and I called everyone over today for these few things. He coughed before continuing, "Has everyone arrived?" When he asked, he looked at Han Shou.
Everyone looked left and right, wanting to see who else hadn't arrived, but Han Shou had already said respectfully: "Master Hou, the Hou Mansion is connected to Mrs. Shang, it should be two hundred and forty-six people, just now the old slave counted the number, even the Hou Ye and the third lady, there are two hundred and forty-two people, and there are two or four people missing." ”
"I know that Qi Feng has a reason, he doesn't have to come, and Mrs. Tai naturally can't come, except for Mrs. Tai and Qi Feng, who are the other two?" Qi Ning asked.
Han Shou said: "It's Tie Long and Zhao Du who feed the horses in the stable!" ”
"In the stables?" Qi Ning asked, "Why didn't the two of them come?" ”
Han Shou leaned close to Qi Ning's ear and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, the old slave asked people to greet them, but those two people were nowhere to be seen, and the stables were searched everywhere, but they didn't see any trace of those two." ”
Qi Ning nodded slightly, but at this time, his heart was bright.
One of the purposes of his gathering of everyone is to find out who is missing, the bull head and horse face were destroyed by Qi Ning last night, and they have completely disappeared from this world, but these two people have been lurking in the Hou Mansion, Qi Ning just wants to find out what kind of identity these two people are hiding in the Hou Mansion, at this time, listening to Han Shou's words, he determined that the two stables were the cow head and horse noodles.
At this time, I finally understood that Gu Qinghan said that when he met Niu Tou Ma Mian back then, there was a very strong smell on the two of them, but he couldn't remember what the smell was, and now it seems that it should be the smell in the stable.
The two of them stayed in the stables all year round, and were responsible for feeding the horses, and it would be hellish if they didn't have that smell on them.
In this way, Niu Tou Ma Mian has been staying in the Hou Mansion for many years pretending to be a groom, if these two people are indeed related to the Great Light Temple, then the Jinyi Qi family is afraid that they have always been involved in the Great Light Temple.
"Ning'er......!" Qi Ning was thoughtful, everyone looked at Qi Ning, and Gu Qinghan saw that Qi Ning didn't speak, so he reminded in a low voice beside him.
Qi Ning came back to his senses and said, "Go back and look for it." I thought that someone could really find the bull head and horse face that had no bones, then it was really hell, put his hands behind his back, and said loudly: "I tell you a few things that Mrs. Tai explained, and everyone must remember them." The first thing is that from now on, no one is allowed to get even half a step close to the Buddha hall ...........! ”
Many people were a little dazed, secretly thinking that this was the rule of the Hou Mansion all along, so why did the Hou Ye mention it?
"Madame Tai mentioned it to me last night." Qi Ning said slowly: "I'm young, I just inherited the title, Mrs. Tai is worried that I will do foolish things, so I usually let some people stare at me, so as not to make me stupid, I know that those people will occasionally secretly go to the Buddha Hall to report my whereabouts to Mrs. Tai......!" ”
Gu Qinghan's delicate body trembled, and many of the servants were slightly discolored.
"Fortunately, Mrs. Tai now knows that I am quite thoughtful, so naturally I don't need to be reminded." Qi Ning smiled and said: "So the person who secretly reported my whereabouts to Mrs. Tai before can now stand up, don't worry, I won't embarrass you, but if anyone dares to deceive me, I will be really unhappy." ”
The crowd was in a commotion, then fell silent.
Qi Ning glanced at it and asked, "No one has stepped forward?" The corner of his eye seemed to glance at Han Shou on the side, only to see the corner of Han Shou's eyes beating, Qi Ning understood a little in his heart, and suddenly saw Han Shou turn around, Qi Ning didn't wait for him to speak, he had already raised his hand and pressed it on Han Shou's shoulder, Han Shou was stunned, but Qi Ning smiled and said: "If you don't take the initiative to stand up, I will have to ask Manager Han to name him." ”
Han Shou was suddenly a little stunned, and then saw a person walking out of the crowd, and fell to his knees: "Master Hou, the little one..... The little one just did what Mrs. Tai wanted, and he had no ..... to the Hou Ye No two minds! ”
As soon as he stood up, he was followed by four or five more men, men and women, all kneeling on the ground.
Qi Ning sighed and said, "You don't have to worry, it's Mrs. Tai's orders, so naturally I can't blame you." However, after I learned about this, I made it clear to Mrs. Tai that the servants of this family secretly monitored their master, and after all, they committed the following crimes, even if Mrs. Tai ordered it, it was a violation of the rules. Xiang Han Shou said: "Manager Han, go back and send a settlement fee to each person, let them leave the Hou Mansion, don't embarrass them." ”
Han Shou hurriedly said: "Old slave..... The old slave obeys! ”
"You remember, I am the master of the Jinyi Hou Mansion, and each of you is a part of the Jinyi Hou Mansion, if anyone is bullied to your head without asking, I will naturally help you out." Qi Ning's eyes were sharp, and his voice was cold: "But if someone eats inside and out, eats my rice, but beats me behind my back, I really can't be polite, you must remember this, have you heard it clearly?" ”
Everyone said in unison, "I heard clearly." ”
Qi Ning nodded with great satisfaction: "Mrs. Tai has had a stroke, and she must recuperate well from now on, if anyone takes my words as wind in their ears and approaches the Buddha Hall, once it is discovered, it will not be as simple as expelling the Hou Mansion." You also remember that if someone is near the Buddha hall and you find it, as long as you report it, you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver! ”
Gu Qinghan was so shrewd, she had already sensed that something was wrong at this time, and she also knew that Qi Ning's move was really powerful, and under the heavy reward, everyone in the Hou Mansion would wait for them to become eyeliners, and no one dared to take half a step closer to the Buddha Hall.
But Qi Ning didn't let people get close to the Buddha Hall, and of course things were not simple.
"This second thing is the steward of the future house." Qi Ning coughed and continued: "The third lady has taken care of the Hou Mansion for many years, it is well organized, Mrs. Tai is very approvable, from now on, the affairs of the Hou Mansion are still taken care of by the third lady, the third lady said east, everyone should not go west, the third lady said north, everyone should not go south, if anyone makes the third lady unhappy, don't blame me for being polite." ”
Gu Qinghan glanced at Qi Ning and bit his lip, but Qi Ning had already turned his head and said with a smile: "Sanniang, the affairs in the house, I will trouble you more in the future, I thank you here first." Bowing to Gu Qinghan, Gu Qinghan frowned and raised his eyebrows, and finally hummed lightly.
"And one last thing, which is closely related to you." Qi Ning said with a smile: "From this year onwards, at the end of each year, the Hou Mansion will select five outstanding servants from among you, if you are usually diligent and willing to work, and you are loyal to the Hou Mansion or even make meritorious contributions, it is possible to select them, and the outstanding servants selected will each receive a reward of one hundred taels of silver, and it depends on your ability." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone showed joy, and many people showed eager expressions.
