As soon as she entered the door, she turned on the difficult survival mode, and Jin Niang only felt that her head was as big as a fight.

Even more headaches are yet to come.

After breakfast, Mama Wu, who had been serving by Xu's mother and was now taking care of her sister-in-law Xu Pianpian, came over.

Mama Wu was followed by a little maid about twelve or thirteen years old, holding a one-foot-thick account book in her hand.

Mama Wu entered the door to salute, she was her mother-in-law's maid, and she had taken care of several sons and daughters of the Xu family when she grew up, and now she is taking care of her sister-in-law. It can be said that the masters of several juniors in the family were all taken care of by Mama Wu.

Her position in this family is very important, and Jin Niang naturally did not accept her courtesy, and hurried over to help her up without waiting for her to bend down.

Mama Wu said a few times, "The second lady has tormented the old slave", and then said a few words of greeting before entering the topic and saying, "This is the account book of the family in the past few years. Now that the second lady has married in, this account book will be handed over to you to take care of. ”

Although Jin Niang knew that she was going to be in charge of the family when she married in, she thought that she should wait until she returned to the door before the public middle school would send the account books and other things. Unexpectedly, just after the tea, the stool was not warm when she returned to the house, so her mother-in-law asked Mama Wu to bring the things.

Jin Niang naturally politely excused herself twice, and when Mama Wu saw this, she said, "Second lady, don't shirk, there is no master in this family who can deal with these except you." He sighed, "Now that you are married, you will understand sooner or later what the situation in this family is." The old slave is so daring, I will say a few words to you first. ”

In fact, there is no need for Mama Wu to specifically say that the situation of the Xu family is known to everyone in Pingyang Town.

When Xu's father was young, he was a well-known romantic man in Pingyang Town, lingering in flowers and beautiful colors all day long, and major disasters did not cause small disasters.

It was also in order to let him retract his heart, so that he could study and practice martial arts at home, and strive to make a name for himself as soon as possible, the old lady and Mrs. Tai of the Xu family at that time chose thousands of choices, and only then did they say that a room was as beautiful as a flower, and was quite insightful in poetry, books, piano and chess, and also learned a good hand, that is, today's Xu's mother. Delusional that his daughter-in-law will supervise him, and Father Xu will work hard in order not to fall into prestige in front of his daughter-in-law.

The result was not satisfactory, just looking at the fact that although Father Xu has passed the age of confusion, he is still a frequent visitor to the Chu Pavilion of Qinlou, and he knows that the original plan of Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu has failed.

Speaking of Xu's mother, Xu's mother was also born in a farming family, and her father was one of the only three gentlemen in Pingyang Town. Since childhood, coupled with a light temperament that can sit still, and is quite talented in the four arts, Xu Mu is really insightful in poetry, painting, piano and chess. But because she puts her mind on these external things, she doesn't care about other things.

Later, after the newlywed Yan'er, Xu's father made a mistake again, and stayed in the Red Pavilion at night, Xu's mother was cold-hearted, disgusted with Xu's father a lot, and ignored her children, but put more thoughts on calligraphy and painting.

Her mind is not on the living, and this big government affairs fall on Mama Wu, who grew up with her.

Mama Wu is her maid in marriage, because Mother Xu's mother knows that her daughter is cold and indifferent, has no desires, and regards money as dung.

Mama Wu did a good job, but the head of a mansion didn't care about anything, and only let the maids around her come out to deal with the exchanges and maintain interpersonal communication, which was not appropriate in the end.

Later, when he hurriedly married the eldest lady and entered the door, the power of the housekeeper was handed over to the eldest lady. Although the eldest lady does not have many means to rule, fortunately, most of the maids and servants in the mansion are old people, and they are not cunning and cunning, but they have also maintained.

And just two months ago, Xu Dalang died in battle, and Mrs. Xu's mother's family was afraid of being implicated by her in-laws, so she strongly ordered her married daughter to leave her parents' house.

There is no hostess in charge of this house, and there are three fathers and mothers in the big house to take care of, so this is not a good thing that a grandmother can handle. This is why the Xu family sent someone to Xu Erlang to say goodbye, and Jin Niang was hurriedly married into the door.

Mama Wu spoke very measuredly, she didn't say anything that shouldn't have been said, and the temperament of Xu's father and Xu's mother was also vague, but the overall meaning was clearly expressed: The master of this family doesn't care about anything, and whether this family is good or bad in the future depends on the second lady.

Mama Wu handed over the account book and the pair of keys, and left with a relaxed pace, Jin Niang lowered her head and looked at the tea cup on the table, but couldn't help but think of Xu Dalang's death in battle.

To put it mildly, the chaos of the Xu family, including the eldest lady and the departure back to her parents' house, the three younger ones in the big house became children without a father and a mother, Xu Erlang and Xu Sanlang were forced by their father and mother to no longer be able to practice martial arts, and turned to study literature, and even she was able to marry into the Xu family, in the final analysis, it was caused by Xu Dalang's death in battle.

And Xu Dalang served under the Pingxi Hou, and before his death, he was the captain of the Zhengliupin Zhaowu School.

The six-rank military attaché, who is only twenty-four years old, is really very heroic and rare. But because he saved the prince of Xihou from the enemy, he died without a whole body, which is also very sad.

What is even more tragic is that the great battle was due to the misjudgment of Pingxi Hou, resulting in the death of 30,000 soldiers. Although the Marquis of Pingxi later turned the tide and bravely retreated from the enemy, tens of thousands of soldiers could not come back from the dead, and in the end they lost a city on the border. Now that Pingxihou has been summoned back to Beijing by the holy decree, and the border has been guarded by a new general, it is rumored that Pingxihou will be rejected and sentenced by His Majesty this time.

Now that two months have passed, the news of how Pingxi Hou was sentenced has not come, but the eldest lady's maiden family thought that they got the news early, so they ignored the love of their in-laws for many years, and there were three little grandchildren, and they strongly forced Mrs. Xu to return home.

In the final analysis, in fact, what Jin Niang can't understand the most is this.

Since you are worried that you will be implicated by the Xu family, why don't you cut off the mother-daughter father-daughter relationship with Mrs. Xu? That's the right way to deal with this. And coercing Mrs. Xu to leave, no matter from that point of view, she can't see through it, and there is only one explanation she can think of: Could it be that Mrs. Xu's maiden family still wants her daughter to marry for the second time, and she is already optimistic about others? Otherwise, how should we understand the matter of letting Mrs. Xu return home.

Thinking about people for no reason, Jin Niang recited a sentence of "sin" in her heart, and then thought of herself.

Sooner or later, the Pingxi Marquis, who is backed by the Xu family, will be disgusted by His Majesty and severely punished, and it is said that the Xu family will lose its former prestige.

But Father Lin is still optimistic about the Xu family, and is determined to marry his daughter in, in the final analysis, but he is just thinking that the Xu family is out of the relationship with the Pingxi Hou Mansion - now that Pingxi Hou is in trouble, although the Xu Mansion has lost the confidence of the past, there is also a Xu Dalang who died bravely in the Xu Mansion, and a Xu Erlang who Yunwen Yunwu has.

Father Lin is especially optimistic about Xu Erlang, and feels that as long as this son is still alive, it will be a matter of time before the lintel of the Xu family is revitalized.

Moreover, the Xu family is a family of kindness, and the prestige and reputation in Pingyang Town are not all because of the relationship between the Pingxi Hou Mansion, but also because the deceased old lady and old lady have a long-term vision, are kind to others, and have never broken off the care for orphaned old children, which is the foundation of the Xu family's foothold in Pingyang Town.
