Chapter 248: House Arrest (5)
"Second lady, we don't have to beat around the bush when we speak. In and out of your words, you have repeatedly said that Miss Fourth is carrying the black pot for others. Speaking of which, don't you want to say, Miss Fourth carried the black pot for me? Song Yi's expression was very serious, he looked at Cao Shi coldly, and continued, "Although I don't admit this pot. But you are right about one thing, Miss Fourth is young, she was instigated and deceived by adults, and the main responsibility is not her. But if she is innocent, it would be too against her will, right? If she didn't understand, she could have asked me, or even the old lady. But does she have it? ”
Of course, she is only a teenager, and it is not incomprehensible that she is afraid of being scolded and does not dare to say these things. Therefore, in the final analysis, the most hateful thing in this matter are those who deceive and deceive, deceive and treacherous, and those who embezzle money and find a bunch of reasons, are pointed out, and still care about their words and do not admit it. ”
"What did you say?" As soon as Cao Shi heard it, he felt that Song Yi was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, and he could sit down with every sentence he said, so he jumped up and said.
"Second lady, why worry, I'm also following your words! Although I don't know anything about so many things in the palace recently, as the princess of the real palace, I can't escape the blame. Song Yi turned to the old lady and said, "Old lady, a family can only have long-term peace and stability if there are clear rewards and punishments." Especially for a big family like our True Palace, only fairness and justice can convince everyone. This time, because of the late payment of wages, the people in the house have a lot of complaints, and I can't stay out of it, so I will hand over the housekeeping matters in my hands, and the old lady will see who she wants to take over, and I will fully cooperate."
"Princess, why bother? Your special situation now is understandable to everyone. No one said that yours was not, did you want to embarrass me by handing over the housekeeping matters like this? Du Shi said indifferently.
"Old lady, this is not a decision I made on the spur of the moment, nor is it because I am trying to blackmail others. As you can see, I've been struggling lately. Although the housekeeping is not a heavy job, it also needs to be serious, careful, and non-discriminatory. You'd better find someone else to take over," Song Yi looked like he had made up his mind.
The old lady Du Shi saw that Song Yi was like this, and she didn't insist anymore, but only said, "If you want to be lazy, I'll give you a chance." But I'll keep this housekeeping for you. After you have a baby, if you figure it out, come to me, and I'll give it to you."
Song Yi saw that the goal was achieved, and he didn't say anything anymore. In the end, the Cao family was fined confinement and silver, and the fourth lady was also fined for half a year.
After everyone left, Yin's mother said to the old lady, "Old lady, I didn't expect that after many twists and turns, the old lady finally got what she wanted."
Du Shi listened to Yin's mother's words and sneered, "You're too happy too early." Didn't you see that it was Song Yi who took the initiative to ask to hand over the housekeeper rights in his hand just now? Where do you see her being reluctant? ”
"What do you mean, old lady?"
"I mean, Song Yi didn't want to continue to be a housekeeper for a long time, he just took this opportunity to get out"
"Huh? How could the princess have such thoughts? Yin's mother said she didn't understand.
"There wasn't much money left in the account of the True King's Mansion, but this time it was made by the fourth lady, and it became a mess, how could Song Yi be such a shrewd person, how could he not see it? She knew that if she didn't take the opportunity to get out, the situation that awaited her in the future would be even more chaotic. Besides, the real king has been fighting with the Siamese princess recently, and she doesn't have the energy to care about the real princess's things anymore. It's better to make a gesture and come out."
"As soon as she came, she handed over the housekeeping matters, and also blocked me and everyone's mouths, and it was difficult for others to say anything. Second, she knew that the true king was not dealing with me, and she would make such a move make the real king think that she was forced to do so and pity her. Third, the mess of the True Palace, no one can take care of it, she took the opportunity to get out, and also found a good excuse for the future. After all, she doesn't care about her home anymore."
"The real princess is really thoughtful, she actually thought of so much" Mother Yin praised casually, but when she saw the old lady's unfathomable expression, she said again, "However, no matter how smart she is, she is still seen through by the old lady." It's just that the old slave doesn't know, since the old lady already knows that the princess thinks so, why did she still want to do what he wanted? ”
"I just said that the real palace is a mess, Song Yi and these people in the mansion can't get it right, but I didn't say that I can't do it. How do they know what I have allowed the True King's Mansion to become like this? ”
"Old lady, you ......"
"Xiao Yin, you have been by my side for so many years, so you naturally know who I hate the most in my life. If it weren't for that slut who climbed the old prince's bed while I wasn't paying attention, he gave birth to a seed of evil, and then he had Zhu Xi's child. How could my son have no one to inherit the title, and he is not justified by my side. It's the old prince who makes me so miserable. How could I possibly make his beloved grandson better? ”
"I know that Zhu Xi will marry a wife sooner or later, and there will be a princess in the palace, so I will let the Wang family do whatever they want, and those shops in the palace are not not making money, but they are not doing well. I thought Song Yi had some ability, but in the half a year since she entered the house, she didn't show any unusual abilities. This time, she gave up on her own initiative and gave me a chance."
"I've been thinking a lot about it these days, the treasures in the True King's Mansion are already in my hands, and only these shops and Zhuangzi are left. After the reckless actions of the fourth young lady, I can just sell these properties in the palace. After I hang up these shops and Zhuangzi, wouldn't it be more stable for me to have people secretly buy them back and turn them into my private property? ”
"Old lady, you are so clever. In this way, we don't have to worry about others checking the accounts," Yin's mother said with a smile.
"Am I still afraid that others will check the accounts? I just want the old prince to watch from the ground, how can the true royal mansion he left behind be back in my hands" Du Shi sneered with a gloomy face.
Yin's mother didn't dare to answer this sentence, so she could only laugh awkwardly.
On the way back to Huifang Garden from the old lady's Qingsong Courtyard, Chunxiang was very angry and kept angry in Song Yi's ears.
"Princess, I don't understand. Obviously, the second lady and the fourth lady did something wrong, and they were not punished much, but you lost the housekeeping matter. How can you take the initiative to hand over those things, wouldn't it be so that the old lady and the eldest lady get what they wanted? ”
"What stewardship, those don't appeal to me anymore. I'm thinking about resting right now, and whoever cares about those bad things, let them toss it themselves. I just need to live my own life" Song Yi thought in her heart, and didn't tell Chunxiang, because she felt that now was not the time to tell Chunxiang.
Chunxiang looked puzzled, but the princess didn't want to say more, so she could only endure it.
