Zhen Mi was pregnant, and Yuan Xu was by her side every day, except for working Tianhai and changing the armor of the two battalions at night.

Penglai's internal affairs were almost all handed over to Liu Mian.

Weaving mill in the middle of the island.

Liu Mian took two women to inspect the workshop.

In the past, Zhen Mi was mostly here to inspect, and she only came once or twice occasionally.

"Miss Liu!" Seeing Liu Mian coming, the woman in charge of the weaving mill greeted her.

With a smile on her face, the woman said, "I heard that Madame is pregnant, and the housekeeping of the island is in the hands of the young lady. In the future, the young lady will have to take care of it more. ”

"Penglai has a small population, and the men work in the fields, spinning and weaving cloth are all handled by women such as us." Liu Mian said: "Take charge of this place, work harder and use more heart!" ”

"Miss, don't worry!" The woman accompanied Liu Mian and said to her: "Seeing that it is late autumn, there are not many mulberry hemp sent every day, and the stock in the warehouse is also exhausted. ”

"Sold out?" Liu Mian said: "There are not too many people here, why is the weaving so fast? ”

"It's not that Mrs. is a good person!" The woman said, "Madame once said, 'The son has a word, and those who work more get more.'" The sisters worked hard to earn more money! Those mulberry hemp sent, where is enough. ”

"It's almost fast, how is the quality?" Liu Mian said: "Take me to see the cloth." ”

The woman answered and led Liu Mian to the place where the cloth was stacked.

Liu Mian first inspected the silk woven from silk.

The silk is smooth and exquisite, and it is no worse than the outside world.

Very satisfied with the silk, Liu Mian said: "The craftsmanship is good, and the lady should be satisfied." “

"That's what Miss Liu said!" The woman laughed and said, "Madame is very pleased with the silk we have woven. A few days ago, I had to pull some of them and send them to the inner chambers of the generals on the island. ”

Smiled indifferently. Liu Mian came to the linen.

Linen is, of course, no match for silk.

The rough texture is understandable.

Pulling up the corner of a piece of linen, Liu Mian tugged hard.

With a crisp sound of cloth tearing. She tore off a piece of sackcloth.

Pinching the cloth in her hand, she looked at the woman.

Knowing that it was not good, the woman hurriedly said, "The sackcloth is too brittle......

"Too brittle?" Liu Mianxing's eyes glared: "You want to tell me, but if a person from Penglai goes out in sackcloth, he will ruin a piece of clothing if he is slightly scratched by things?" ”

The woman bowed her head and did not dare to speak.

Although linen cloth is not as delicate as silk, it is difficult to prevaricate when you pull off a piece with a gentle pull.

"Good silk, here we are. How did you weave these? Pinching the head of the cloth, Liu Mian said: "You don't have to be in charge of this place, just weave cloth with others." ”

After withdrawing the woman, Liu Mian said to the woman who accompanied him: "Find out who weaves such a thing, and all the wages should be deducted!" ”

When Liu Mian arrived at the weaving workshop, he withdrew from the stewardship and deducted the wages of many weavers.

On the evening of the same day, Zhen Mi's residence.

The weaver snorted and cried tears about the injustice she had suffered.

Quietly listened to her cry. Zhen Mi asked, "You came here to sue Miss Liu to me?" ”

The steward knelt on the ground, choked up, and said, "Please be the master!" ”

"Call the shots!" With an indifferent smile, Zhen Mi said, "What are you doing?" ”

The steward was stunned. raised his tear-stained face and looked at Zhen Mi in astonishment.

The lights and shadows flickered, and Zhen Mi's face was indifferent.

"Madame, don't care if I'm waiting?" Zhen Mi's reaction made her feel desperate, and the steward cried and said, "I'm waiting for my wife to carry it with one hand!" ”

"So what?" Zhen Mi said: "You go!" Penglai's housekeeping is handled by Miss Liu. I don't have the right to meddle. ”

Zhen Mi ignored the matter, and the steward had no choice but to retire.

The steward was dismissed. Liu Mian also felt uneasy in his heart.

After inspecting everywhere, she also came to Zhen Mi's residence.

From afar I saw the steward departing. Liu Mian couldn't help but be a little frightened.

After all, it was Zhen Mi who was elected as the manager, and he was removed from the office before he was in charge of Penglai's affairs, and it was unreasonable to say no matter what.

Outside Zhen Mi's door, Liu Mian said: "Liu Mian begs to see Mrs.!" ”

Zhen Mi's voice came from inside the house: "Miss Liu, please come in and speak." ”

Entering the house, Liu Mian bowed and said, "The slave family has done an errand and has come to report to the woman." ”

"Accuse?" Zhen Mi pretended not to know and asked, "What is Miss Liu's crime?" ”

"Checking the weaving workshop today, the slave family found that the linen cloth was too brittle." Liu Mian said: "In a fit of anger, the steward was removed, and people found out who could not buy it, and all the rewards were deducted!" ”

"I already know about it!" Zhen Mi smiled faintly and said to Liu Mian: "The steward came to me and sued the young lady. ”

Lowering his head, Liu Mian felt even more frightened.

Although it was for Penglai, she took over the internal affairs and withheld her salary, if Zhen Mi was to blame, she would have nothing to say.

"Miss sit down and talk!" Zhen Mi greeted.

"The slave family did an errand and didn't dare to sit!"

"As I said, Mademoiselle didn't do anything." Zhen Mi said: "Everyone in Penglai is dressed in the weaving workshop. Even if the texture of silk is good, how many people can wear it? Officers and soldiers in the army, except for captains and above, can wear silk, and the rest of the people are linen uniforms. The fabric is too coping, so do you have to make the soldiers ragged? ”

Zhen Mi said so, and Liu Mian was relieved.

"Since the prince handed over the matter of Penglai to Miss, if it is not an important matter, Miss should have full authority to dispose of it." Zhen Mi said: "A few people have been withdrawn, and there is no need to inform me!" ”

"After all, it is the person promoted by the lady...... Liu Mian said, "I still have to come and present it!" ”

"If I can take it, you can withdraw it." Zhen Mi said: "Miss Liu is decisive and meticulous. Even if Gong Dong sees you in charge, you must be more careful. The son's selection of people will definitely not be bad! ”

"Mrs. Meng's praise is false, and the slave family is very frightened!"

After talking to Zhen Mi about what she did during the day, and gossiping about it would be longer, Liu Mian retired and left.

When she left, Yuan Xu happened to return.

Seeing her out of the room from afar, Yuan Xu did not greet her.

Back in the house, he asked Zhen Mi, "Miss Liu has come to inform me about the island?" ”

"Exactly!" After picking up Yuan Xu and unloading his armor for him, Zhen Mi said: "Miss Liu is too serious, I am afraid that I will offend many people in the future." ”

"What's wrong?"

"Taking over the internal affairs of Penglai, she went to the weaving workshop and removed the steward." Zhen Mi removed Liu Mian from the stewardship and was sued by someone.

Yuan Xu asked, "What should Zhen Ji do?" ”

"Withdraw, withdraw." Zhen Mi said: "If the concubine intervenes, Miss Liu will have a hard time acting in the future." The people of Penglai are also difficult to convince her. ”

"There is no doubt about employing people, Zhen Ji has the demeanor of a husband." Yuan Xu said: "Since it is handed over to her to dispose of, it will be up to her to do it." If it's something wrong, Zhen Ji will mention it! ”

"Don't worry, the husband knows." (To be continued.) )
