Chu Yuqin's eyes were distressed: "How much it hurts!" You are old, not only are your eyes not good, but your body is not strong. You'll have to be careful in the future. You are the most powerful person by your mother's side. If you have something that is good or bad, who can serve your mother? ”

Mama Fang smiled bitterly.

"I really envy my mother when I say it. Mother has such a loyal and capable man as you by her side. I don't have anyone as capable as Mama Fang around me. Chu Yuqin glanced at Zhu Xue and Qiu Yin next to him with disgust. Although these two girls are loyal, they are young after all, and many things cannot be counted on them. ”

Mrs. Shizi laughed. Miss Zhu Xue and Miss Qiu Yin are capable people. Who in the house doesn't call them good? Mama Fang said.

"Really? But it's also. After all, it was a girl taught by Mrs. Ben herself, how could it be bad? I don't have any other problems, but I take care of my shortcomings. The girls are the closest people around me, if anyone dares to bully them, don't blame me for being unkind. Chu Yuqin said: "I believe Mama can understand. After all, your mother cares for you just as much. ”

Mama Fang listened quietly.

Everyone knows that the servants in the courtyard of the prince are blessed. The man has a gentle temper and does not lose his temper casually. The hostess is also a heroic character. If you do well, you will be rewarded, and if you don't do well, you will lose your work and be sent to other yards to do things. How is it like the masters in other courtyards who beat people at every turn?

"Madam, do you really dislike us so much?" Zhu Xue said aggrievedly: "Zhu Xue's heart is hurt. ”

"Mrs. Ben is about to go to see my mother, shouldn't you have prepared clothes and jewelry for me at this time? Still standing here like wood, do you think are they two stupid girls? Chu Yuqin's words were full of complaints, but they were full of pampering and indulgence.

"That's right! Let's get ready. Qiu Yin took Zhu Xue away.

Chu Yuqin nodded at Mama Fang: "Mama, go and talk back!" Walk slowly on the road and don't go too fast. Otherwise, it will be more troublesome to fall somewhere else. ”

"Yes." Mama Fang left.

An hour passed.

The Duchess sent three groups of people to urge.

After Chu Yuqin finished disposing of dozens of account books, he finally stood up and left.

"Take this book with you." Chu Yuqin said.

"Yes." Zhu Xue put the ledger into her sleeve.

"Let's go! Don't keep your mother waiting. She is not in good health and can't stand the gas. Chu Yuqin said: "If you her off to death, isn't it unfilial?" ”

Chu Yuqin took the two girls and walked towards the courtyard of the Duchess of Ling Guo.

When he was at the door, Jiang came from the opposite side.

Seeing Chu Yuqin, Jiang saluted her.

Chu Yuqin looked at Jiang's face and said, "Sister-in-law, should you find a doctor recently?" Why does it feel like you're losing weight again? ”

"I ......," Jiang turned pale. I'm too big now, and I want to be slimmer, maybe look better. ”

"Strong?" Chu Yuqin was surprised. "Do you have any misunderstanding of the word strong? Look at your appearance that the wind can blow away, where is it strong? ”

"Brother and sister, don't worry. I'm in good health, nothing is wrong. Women, they always want to have a slender figure. I'm not exempt from vulgarity. Jiang smiled. I heard that my mother sent someone to pass me on early. I had just returned from my mother's house when I received the news. Now let's get in! ”

Chu Yuqin watched Jiang hurriedly enter the back room.

"Qiu Yin, Zhu Xue, is your sister-in-law strong?" She began to doubt her own judgment.

"Mrs. Shizi, the eldest young lady looks much thinner than you. There is no flesh on that face, where is the strength? I really don't know what she's thinking. Zhu Xue said.

"She's not in a good shape. You said that if something happened to her, would I still be able to get my 10,000 taels of silver back? Chu Yuqin asked.

"Even if she can't do anything, it will be very difficult for your 10,000 taels of silver to come back." Zhu Xuedao.

"Isn't there anything else to resist? Even the Jiang family's real estate was used to resist. If he still doesn't come out, he will take the Jiang family's house, the shop and the Zhuangzi. Although these things are not worth 10,000 taels of silver, I have a way to multiply their value several times. Chu Yuqin said: "Anyway, don't think I'll suffer." ”

I just walked to the door and listened to the sound coming from inside.

"Duchess Guo, marrying is the fate of parents. You were born as the biological mother of the third son, and you can be the master of this. Why are you waiting here for your daughter-in-law to come over and decide? How can a sister-in-law decide a marriage for an uncle? An unfamiliar female voice rang out.

Listening to this voice and the content of what was said, this person should be the strict Mrs. Taifu.

Chu Yuqin walked in: "Mother, I'm sorry, I'm late." ”

When Duchess Ling Guo saw Chu Yuqin, she said with a cold face: "It's really three times and four invitations." Didn't I let you come an hour ago? ”

"I'm sorry, Mother. There are a lot of things going on in the house. So busy until now. After Chu Yuqin finished speaking, he said to Zhu Xue: "Hand the account book to the Duchess of Guo to see." If she had seen it, she would have known how difficult it was for me. ”

Duchess Ling Guo instinctively sensed danger.

She hurriedly said, "It's important to come to you. More on that later. ”

"Oh, we'll talk about that later!" Chu Yuqin said again: "Zhu Xue, put things away." When the matter here is finished, I will hand it over to the Duchess for a closer look. ”

Mrs. Taifu looked at Chu Yuqin: "Mrs. Shizi has such a big shelf. The guest is here, and you make the guest wait for you for so long. ”

"First of all, when my mother sent a message to me, I didn't know that there was a guest today. I thought my mother missed me, so she asked me to talk about the housekeeper in the house. My mother loves to teach me how to take care of the house. I just thought that I hadn't finished reading the account books in the house. Wouldn't my mother be disappointed if she asked me and I couldn't answer anything? So I looked at the ledger for a while and dealt with some trivial things at home. It's a little late. ”

"I knew that a distinguished guest was coming today, so I wouldn't delay anything."

"Duchess Guo, shouldn't the subordinates in your hands teach them well? I can't even pass on a word. You can see how loose the rules in your house are. Mrs. Taifu frowned and said, "But I just asked about your family today." I came here specifically for the marriage of Miss Zhao and Ling Lang. Speaking of which, the two of you originally intended to get married, so you should have booked it for them earlier. Now two lovers have to endure other people's pointing and pointing, isn't that more than worth the loss? ”

Madame said it exactly. Duchess Ling Guo couldn't say anything about her suffering, so she had to suffer this dumb loss.

She hasn't gone out recently, and she didn't know that Ling Shengzhi's bastard met Zhao Yufei in the theater again, and she slighted Zhao Yufei in the theater. Now everyone is saying that Ling Shengzhi is a gentleman, so he molested Zhao Yufei. If you are not responsible at this time, you will be a frivolous prodigal.

They also found this high-status Mrs. Taifu. Even if they don't want to admit it, they don't dare not be 'responsible'. After all, the word has already spread outside.
