Chapter 005: Steward

The old housekeeper in the house was an attendant who followed the old marquis when he was young, and later became a housekeeper after his foot was injured.

The long-term worker in the front yard has great respect for this old housekeeper, after all, the old housekeeper has followed the old marquis to the battlefield, and no one dares to offend him.

Bichun Daigo was empowered, why didn't she think of this stubble, Mrs. Shizi turned out to be not a straw bag, and her brain was quite useful.

She pulled her legs and ran out, Biyue and the three of them were more capable than her, and it was still possible to stop Mrs. Chen temporarily, but they didn't know that the prince was not dead, and they would definitely not be able to withstand it for a long time.

As long as the housekeeper can be invited, even Mrs. Chen will be defeated.

Bi Chun has been with the prince for a few years, and her brain is still clever, so she soon went to the front yard.

The old housekeeper has not had a good time recently, the old marquis is sick, it is difficult to move when he is paralyzed on the bed, and his hand can't reach out to the inner courtyard, and I don't know how Mrs. Chen takes care of the old marquis on weekdays.

Otherwise, even the imperial doctor was invited, but why he couldn't diagnose the disease, and it has been delayed and has not improved.

And the prince disappeared, and all the elites in the mansion were sent by the old marquis to find people, and there are not many people who can use them now.

The old marquis can't accept this kind of blow, the son is his eldest son, and the only lineage, he almost poured all his efforts into this son, if this son is gone, the Hou Mansion will face no successor.

The old housekeeper is also surnamed Jiang, named Jiang Sheng, at this time when the Hou Mansion is in danger, he no longer manages the affairs of the mansion, but has been paying attention to the situation outside.

Every day, I go back and forth with people from all over the world to check the progress of the search for the prince.

According to the current situation of the Hou Mansion, it is inevitable that everyone will push the wall down, and everyone wants to step on it and get a piece of the pie.

Some people want the power of the Hou Mansion, some people want the wealth of the Hou Mansion, no matter what purpose they have, the result is the same, that is, to make the Hou Mansion a stumbling block, make the Hou Mansion more difficult, and collapse more quickly.

After the old marquis retreated from the battlefield, his body has not been very good, and now the illness is menacing, although it is unexpected, but it is also reasonable.

Unless the prince does not die, the crisis of the Hou Mansion will not be solved.

Because there is no one in the Hou Mansion who can stand up at this time, who can support this huge Hou Mansion.

Even if there are no enemies outside, let the Hou Mansion smoothly transition, how long can those people squander.

Internal worries are the main reason for the collapse of the foundation of the Hou Mansion.

Bi Chun ran to the door of the manager's office out of breath, and a young man sitting at the door stood up: "Sister Bichun, are you here to find Uncle Sheng?" ”

Bi Chun nodded.

Xiao Young shouted inside: "Uncle Sheng, Sister Bichun is looking for it." ”

Then, a calm middle-aged man's voice came from inside the room: "Come in and talk." ”

Bi Chun hurriedly ran in.

Uncle Sheng was sitting at a table with a pile of letters spread out on it, and a few gray pigeons standing on the lattice behind him.

The old marquis felt that the white pigeon was too dazzling and felt unsafe, and he even bred a black feather pigeon over the years.

Jiang Sheng didn't look up, he only spoke: "The matter of the inner courtyard is looking for Mrs. Chen, and the prince will put it in advance." ”

Bi Chun was anxious: "Oh, the matter of the prince cannot be delayed, Uncle Sheng, Mrs. Chen is going to pass away in the prince's study, and we can't stop it." ”

Jiang Sheng raised his head at this time, and his somewhat thin face was a little gloomy: "What did she do in the study of her deceased son?" ”

Bichun shook her head: "I don't know, I said that I had something to find, but we didn't dare to ask, and she didn't say anything if she asked." ”

Jiang Sheng sneered, stood up, limped to the door, and said to the descendant at the door: "Go and call ten people, go to the door of the prince's study to guard, take turns on duty, if someone wants to break in, no matter who it is, tie me up." ”

The young man nodded solemnly and immediately ran to arrange for manpower.

Bi Chun said to Jiang Sheng gratefully: "Thank you Uncle Sheng, it's great to have you here." ”

The little maid began to wipe her tears as she spoke, after the disappearance of the prince, it was too difficult for them.

Life is not good, but it is secondary, and I am most afraid of not being able to keep the things of the prince.

There was no one in charge in the house, everyone was like headless flies, bumping around, and their heads were bleeding.

Jiang Sheng squinted at Bi Chun for a while, was silent for a long time, and asked her, "How did you think of coming to me?" ”

He remembered that the porter had just come to report that Miss Cousin had come over today, and had just left.

These maids and women in the backyard don't have much to do with Jiang Sheng on weekdays, they are very princely and new, and they always look for her directly when they have something.

It's just that Mrs. Chen doesn't care about this matter, and Jiang Sheng has no position to say it.

Bi Chun cried and said, "Yes, Mrs. Shizi called me here, and she said that we couldn't stop it, and we had to find a housekeeper to help." ”

Rao was as calm as Jiang Sheng, or was shocked by this answer.

Since Mrs. Shizi married into the Hou Mansion, she has cried and quarreled with her subordinates, basically she has done all the things that the nobles can't do, and now she has opened her mind, and she knows how to find a housekeeper when she encounters difficulties.

It's just a surprise.

Jiang Sheng pondered for a few seconds with a calm face, but he didn't understand, but he waved his hand and asked Bichun to go down and go back to continue to deal with affairs.

The little girl finished sending Miss Cousin, and when she came back, she saw her Miss standing at the door, not even wearing a coat, her thin body leaning against the door frame, and her little face was pale, as if she had seen a ghost in the blue sky and day.

The little girl was stunned, then stepped forward and whispered, "Miss, why are you up?" Are you going to Madame Chen's courtyard today? ”

It's not that she said, the young lady is sick like this, it's better to stop a little, and give yourself a vacation.

The corners of Feng Lanyu's mouth twitched, and he rolled his eyes and was weak: "Xiaoli? ”

The little girl nodded: "What does Miss command?" ”

Feng Lanyu: "Do you have anything to eat?" I'm so hungry. ”

The little girl subconsciously hooked her neck to look into the house, the porridge just now was dropped, and now there is a plate of pickled cucumbers left on the table, I heard that it is very refreshing?

Feng Lanyu's face immediately darkened: "I want to eat meat, do you?" ”

Xiao Li was embarrassed and said: "Miss, Mrs. Chen said that the old marquis and the prince have had an accident, and the whole house should fast for fifteen days to pray for the old marquis and the prince." ”

Oh, it turns out that giving her cold porridge and pickles is not for her alone, but for the upper and lower levels of the house.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that I am not so angry again.

However, as Feng Lanyu, who is familiar with the plot of the original work, Mrs. Chen's trick can be hidden from others, and she can't hide it.

At this point, the things in the house are probably about to be emptied.

Feng Lanyu touched his stomach and made up his mind: "Let's go out to eat!" ”

Xiao Li was shocked: "Miss, isn't this okay?" ”

Feng Lanyu frowned: "What?" I don't have any money? ”
