Chapter 20: The Way to Make Friends
Su Shi was a little puzzled why Li Qingrong suddenly said this.
At this time, Qiu's mother walked in quickly: "Madam, the old slave heard that you are going to the Tongju Mansion today, as soon as I heard this, the old slave was in a hurry, you have not been to the back house of other official families alone, and you are a merchant girl, or the first time to visit other ladies in Liucheng, in case there is a mistake, how to be good, let the old slave accompany you for the last time, you go by yourself, the old slave is really not at ease." ”
Su finally understood why Li Qingrong had just asked such a sentence, but Qiu's mother's words reached the bottom of her heart.
What she is most worried about now is to go to the General Judgment Mansion to make a mistake, then isn't she the useless person that the old lady said in her letter.
Li Qingrong saw Su's hesitation, and sighed slightly in her heart.
Qiu's mother despises her mother's background in her words, but her mother is not angry, and she feels that the other party is reasonable, she is not there, and she can't respond to this matter immediately.
If my mother had answered Qiu's mother's words, all the efforts I had made before would have been in vain: "Mother, it seems that you have forgotten what you promised me last night." ”
"Mother, no."
"Then do you remember Madame Chen's likes and dislikes?"
"Naturally, remember that Chen's mansion is the most important rule, and the subordinates never exceed it, and the most important thing is to see that the rules of the other people's mansions are messed up." The more Su Shi spoke, the softer his voice became: "But ......"
"Mother, do you think it is impossible for Mrs. Chen to know the situation of our mansion, and plan to take Mother Qiu to try Lei?"
Li Qingrong paused slightly: "Do you know why Mrs. Chen doesn't like unruly mansions?" ”
"Why?"
"Because I'm afraid that my daughter won't understand this, I will suffer in the future."
Su Shi instantly felt guilty about Li Qingrong, because of her, there were no rules in the fourth room of the Li Mansion.
Li Qingrong saw that Su Shi was just guilty, and she wanted to sigh even more.
"Madam, the old slave is also wholeheartedly for your good." Qiu's mother continued to speak outside: "You can bring the old slave this time, if you pass the pass of the Chen Mansion this time, you don't need to bring the old slave in the future, the old slave is willing to accept punishment." ”
Jokes, this time with trouble.
Whether it succeeds or not, Qiu's mother has something to say, success is her credit, and if it doesn't, it is natural that her mother was born as a merchant girl, and she can't be on the stage!
Li Qingrong saw Su's already moved face, and was hesitant by Qiu's mother's words, and no longer had the idea of letting Su make her own decision: "Mother Qiu, do you mean that my mother is a baby who has not been weaned, and she can't leave you?" ”
"Naturally not, just ......"
"It's okay if it's not, since my mother is not an unweaned baby, she can naturally go to the judgment house by herself."
"Isn't the old slave worried that something will go wrong?"
"Then you can tell me, what can go wrong, is it to eat a few more sips of water, which makes people taboo, or to say a few words, which makes people bored?"
"This ......"
"Okay, that's the case, then how will Mother Qiu solve it then? Stop my mother's words in front of everyone, and let everyone know that my mother needs a mother to teach me when she speaks? ”
"If something goes wrong, you have to point it out."
"If that's the case, it's a big joke, and my mother won't have to gain a foothold in the circle of noblewomen in Liucheng in the future."
When Su Shi heard this, he was stunned.
In the past, didn't such a thing happen, the ladies who got along very well were reluctant to get too close to her later, she only thought that Qiu's mother was also for her good, but it turned out that it was because of Qiu's mother.
Mother Qiu was shocked by these words, and hurriedly spoke: "How come, I will secretly remind Mrs. ......"
Li Qingrong didn't stop: "Jokes, how to remind me secretly, it's already after the mistake, what's the use of saying it." ”
"This ......"
"Just put this aside, let me ask you another thing, you said that you follow my mother and can help my mother, then Mother Qiu, you should tell me, what is Mrs. Chen's preferences, and which mansion does she have a bad relationship with, it's best not to mention it, what you hate to eat, and which mansion you have a good relationship with, you can secretly praise each other?" Li Qingrong looked at Qiu's mother and asked one by one.
Mother Qiu was dumbfounded for a while, this, how did she know: "Sister Rong, you know what to do with this, the old slave follows, naturally to see if the rules of getting along with other ladies are wrong, don't be ...... in your demeanor"
"Joke, I thought the old lady sent you here to help my mother improve her communication, and you don't even know how to get along with people."
Qiu's mother was anxious: "What can these two have to do with each other, how old are you, what do you know, don't talk nonsense." ”
Li Qingrong sneered: "Knowing who Mrs. Chen is friends with, you can roughly guess which ladies will be at this Chen Mansion gathering, and if you know what Mrs. Chen dislikes, you won't touch taboos, and if you know what Mrs. Chen likes, you can talk about the itching of people's hearts, which makes people confidant." ”
"Do you think this is useful?" Li Qingrong looked at Qiu's mother.
Qiu's mother's face became more and more pale.
Because Li Qingrong's words are reasonable, she can't refute them reasonably, think about those who have face in front of the old lady, but they are not such people.
These words, even if she has eaten rice for so many years, her eyes light up when she hears it, let alone her wife.
When did Sister Rong become so powerful.
Su's eyes are getting brighter and brighter, her daughter is so smart without her knowing it, this is much better than her, even if she marries in the future, I am afraid she can manage the mansion very well.
The more Su thought about it, the happier he became.
Looking at Mother Qiu again, the Su family had no trace of hesitation before: "Rong'er, in the future, everything in the house will be up to you to decide, as for Mother Qiu, don't interfere in anything." ”
But he spoke directly in front of Qiu's mother.
Mother Qiu's face turned even paler in an instant.
Li Qingrong shook her head: "I'm young, that is, I can help my mother watch a little bit, and it is definitely not possible to call the shots." ”
Qiu's mother breathed a sigh of relief.
If Sister Rong starts taking care of the house now, she may not have a chance at all.
Su Shi remembered the old lady's letter asking Li Qingrong to return to Beijing, and did not speak again.
Li Qingrong glanced at Qiu's mother: "Mother, didn't you say before that there were not enough people in the house." ”
"There is such a thing, Qiu's mother is raised, and Cui'er is not a personal maid."
"I instructed Ma Liu to find a tooth wife, and when we come back from the Tongju Mansion, we can buy an experienced housekeeper woman to help you take care of the affairs of the house, just so that Mother Qiu doesn't have to work anymore, it's really not possible, let Xing'er take care of it for the time being, and get everyone together first."
has reunited the people who took care of her mother, and without a position, Qiu's mother will naturally no longer be able to take care of things.
Qiu's mother's face turned completely white.
What does it mean to buy a newcomer, it naturally means to get a new person who can control it, and when the time comes, her position will be replaced at once, in this house, where is her place, she is afraid that she is really 'Rongyang', ah, what Rongyang, it is clear that she is going to become an invisible person.
How could she have thought that such a little girl as Li Qingrong would be so powerful, and directly blocked her last road, even the girl who has been raised in the capital Bofu, I'm afraid it is not so powerful.
Su Shi nodded quickly: "Listen to Rong'er." ”
Li Qingrong no longer looked at Qiu's mother, and looked at the Su family: "Mother, it's not early, we should also leave the house, if we don't go to the Chen Mansion, I'm afraid we will be late." ”
Su Shi hurriedly nodded: "You can't be late." ”
Li Qingrong then left the house with her mother and went to the Chen Mansion.
In half an hour, they arrived at Dechen's Mansion.
This small gathering in the Chen Mansion is not ordinary, and there is a person who Li Qingrong didn't expect.
