171 Fighting openly and secretly

When Cen Xiyan heard this, she couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart, this old lady, does she think that those people are not hostile enough to her? It's still adding firewood!

However, she still smiled decently on the surface, and replied: "Thank you grandmother for your kindness, but Xiyan is really used to eating what my two girls make, and there is no need to invite a cook again." ”

"Oh? Really? Really? Old lady Cen raised her eyebrows and asked again.

"Yes grandmother, I really don't need to." Cen Xiyan smiled in certainty.

"Well, in that case, let's forget it for now." Old Mrs. Cen glanced at Cen Xiyan deeply, nodded with satisfaction, not pampered and arrogant, and knew how to grasp the measure, which was very good.

At this time, Zhao suddenly interjected with a smile, "Although the six girls of the cook don't want to be sent by the house, there are too few people in Jinglan Pavilion, and the other people still have to be assigned to the past, and the six girls will be matched with the same number as other young ladies, and I will transfer people to the courtyard of Jinglan Pavilion for a while, and the six girls will choose the ones they are satisfied with to stay, okay?" ”

When Zhao spoke, he was smiling, kind and natural, and there was no depression at all, as if last night's incident had never happened, and Mrs. Cen had not punished her in public.

Cen Xiyan raised her eyebrows slightly, she finally understood why the Zhao family's low position in the Cen Mansion was so special, as a concubine, she took over the real power of the Cen Mansion's inner house, this is not only because she has a good background, but also because of her cheap father and other reasons, not because of how strong her own ability is, just look at her performance at the moment, this woman is a very suitable person for intrigue, power and management in the mansion.

Cen Xiyan analyzed, Zhao said this at the moment, first, he had just made a mistake, and he wanted to perform in front of Old Taijun Cen to save his image.

Second, the subordinates who served in her yard should have been arranged before she returned home, but now they have not been arranged yet, which is probably one of the dismounts, but at this moment, the Zhao family must not admit her little calculation, and she is afraid that someone will turn this matter out to talk about it, so in disguised explanation, she is not not not arranged, but to wait for her Cen Xiyan to come back and pick her own lovely subordinate!

The third purpose...... I guess I want to put people in her yard!

"Well, there is a shortage of some people in the courtyard of the six girls." Old Taijun Cen thought for a while, looked at Cen Xiyan again, and asked, "Sixth girl, since you want to send someone in your yard, do you have any ideas?" ”

Cen Xiyan knows that the rules in the big family, the masters in each yard, and the subordinates who serve are all fixed, she doesn't like that there are too many people in her yard, too noisy, but she can't be too maverick, and she doesn't want others to serve or something, so it is a must for new people to enter her yard, but of course, she doesn't want her yard to be planted with a bunch of eyeliner! Since the old lady asked her opinion, of course she would take advantage of this opportunity!

"Grandmother, aunt, I think, there is no need to transfer people from other places to my yard, the people in the house currently have their own places, transferred to me, there are vacancies in other places, and then you have to buy people, it is better to buy people from my yard directly, and it also saves the people from leaving the already familiar position."

As soon as Cen Xiyan's words fell, before Old Taijun Cen and the Zhao family could speak, the eighth lady Cen Xifen, who had a rough temperament and a quick temper, interjected again, and sneered in a sharp voice: "Sixth sister is really a big show!" As soon as you come back, you have to buy a yard of people? That's a lot of money! ”

This Miss Cen Ba is selectively deaf at the moment because she can't get used to Cen Xiyan, and she didn't hear Cen Xiyan say that she transferred people from other places to her yard, and if there is a shortage of people in other positions, she will buy new people, so she will grasp the keywords of "buy people", and obviously find fault!

Cen Xiyan was a little speechless, although this little kid is not big, it is not as cute as a little girl of this age should be, this is really not pleasing at all, or to put it bluntly, it is really annoying!

Cen Xiyan glanced at Cen Xifen lightly, he didn't bother to pay attention to her, he felt that it was too embarrassing to be as knowledgeable as her!

But Cen Xifen was stimulated by Cen Xiyan's eyes, her face turned red, her anger was obvious, and she was about to open her mouth to explode.

At this moment, Seventh Miss Cen Xiqin also spoke again, she frowned, looked at Cen Xifen, and said, "Eighth sister! What do you call that? Why don't I understand you? In the near future, it must be someone to buy, and the newly bought person replaces the person who is transferred, or is it directly arranged in the courtyard of the sixth sister, is there any difference? Could it be that it costs silver to buy people in the courtyard of the sixth sister, and there is no need to spend silver to buy people in other places? Also, how much money does it cost to buy someone? Could it be that we are loyal and brave to the Marquis Mansion, and we don't have the money to buy a few people, so we have to calculate carefully? ”

"I ......" Cen Xifen was suddenly choked by Cen Xiqin's words, her face turned even redder, and finally she only held back one sentence, "Seventh sister!" You see that my father, mother, and brother are not around, and you bully me! ”

Cen Xiqin couldn't help but roll her eyes at Cen Xifen, "If it's called bullying you, then I'm bullying you!" ”

"...... you" Cen Xifen turned her head angrily and complained to Mrs. Cen, "Grandmother, look at the seventh sister her!" ”

"Alright." Old Mrs. Cen, who has been pretending to be a wooden Buddha since the two sisters quarreled, finally spoke at this moment, "You two sisters, don't say a word about anything, it's getting more and more unruly!" ”

Old lady Cen spoke, Cen Xiqin and Cen Xifen didn't dare to talk anymore, but they glared at each other with their eyes, one was triumphant, the other was angry and dissatisfied, and finally Cen Xiqin retracted his gaze and continued to sit there in a proper manner as everyone's girlfriends, while Cen Xifen pouted slightly and sulked secretly.

Old Taijun Cen didn't care about them anymore, but looked at Zhao and asked lightly, "What do you think of the proposal of the six girls?" ”

The courtyard where Cen Xiyan lived was newly bought, and Zhao's heart was naturally full of reluctance, but now that the old lady asked, she couldn't say a strong reason for opposition, so she naturally didn't dare to say the word "disagree", so she had to nod and said: "The sixth girl's proposal is good, just do what the sixth girl said, and after a while, I will let people invite the tooth woman to come, so that the sixth girl can choose someone." ”

"Well, let's do it." Old Mrs. Cen nodded.

Others, naturally, no one will say anything else.

Cen Xiyan smiled and said to the Zhao family: "It's too much trouble to be an aunt." ”

Zhao also maintained a smile on his face: "This is what my aunt should do." But in his heart, he said, "Hmph! Do you think that the new buyers will listen to her? This girl is still too tender!
