In the last book, Xia He asked about Dongmei's life in the old mansion, and Dongmei smiled: "The fourth lady has a gentle temperament and is good to her subordinates. There are few people in the old house, and the work is light, and it is very happy, but I miss the second wife and a few of you. Now that I'm back, I have to kiss and kiss well. ”

Xia He said: "I have a stomach to tell you, and when I am empty, a few of our sisters will also get together." I won't accompany you today, the second master brought back an aunt, I heard that it was in Yangzhou, and the second wife asked me to take a look at what was short. ”

Dongmei remembered the shadow hidden behind the second master, her face was a little unpleasant, and she sighed: "Hey, I'm afraid that the West Garden will be lively in the future!" The second wife's ......"

Xia He gently squeezed Dongmei's hand and said with a smile: "Sister Dongmei, you don't know what our wife is like, except for those two little ones in your heart, who has been?" You, just put your heart back in your stomach. I'll go first, and I'll look for you later. ”

Dongmei waved her hand and said, "Go quickly, I just happened to talk to the second wife!" ”

……

After Gu Yuzhen listened to the housekeeper's thoughts, Fang summoned Dongmei to her side to speak. The master and servant fully told their thoughts after parting, and shed tears for a while before they got to the point.

Dongmei talked about the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the young lady over the years, and then explained in detail how the young lady could speak, how the deceased old lady was cold first and then hot, etc., one by one.

Gu Yuzhen heard tears in her eyes and said, "Thank you for your hard work!" Yao'er is by your side, thanks to you. Don't worry, I'll give you a good future. ”

Dongmei hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed in thanks.

Gu Shi personally helped him up, and asked, "How many maids are there in front of Yao'er now?" How well do you learn the rules? ”

Dongmei thought for a while and said, "Second wife, I bought six after returning to the old house, and I have looked at them all over the years, all of them are good." Yinggui was bought by Miss herself, and she has been with me for five years, so she has to use it. ”

Gu's mind changed slightly: "The rules have been changed in the mansion now, and there are four first-class and four second-class around each young lady. told the young lady that according to the rules of the house, let her choose two intimate ones to be promoted to the first class, and the rest will be paid monthly according to the second-class maids. ”

Dong Meiqi said: "How has it changed again? ”

Gu sneered: "Two years ago, people from Beijing talked about Miss Houfu's pomp. The old lady said that the Jiang Mansion was also an official eunuch, and she couldn't be underestimated, so she specially instructed each girl in the mansion to add two more first-class people. ”

Dongmei lowered her head and looked down, and her heart was already clear. The second lady let the young lady pick a satisfactory big girl by herself early, in case the old lady's hand was stretched too long.

So it seems......

Gu Shi gathered the jade bracelet in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly. With the cleverness of this maid, she must be able to understand her hard work.

Gu's words changed and said: "Over the years, you and Mother Li have worked hard to take care of Miss, and the monthly money has doubled. This is what I gave privately, just don't give it up. Go back and tell those little ones, this is no better than the old house, be careful, don't cause trouble for the young lady. Yao'er's Tingfeng Xuan, I'll only hand it over to you. You'll have to watch it for me! ”

Dongmei secretly pondered the deep meaning of the second wife's words, and was shocked at the moment.

"Dongmei, these two children are my life, if something happens, I won't be able to live."

Dongmei hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Mrs., this time is different from the past, the fourth lady is smart." ”

Gu Shi tucked the corners of his eyes with satisfaction, said a few thoughtful words, and then let Dongmei go back.

……

In the evening, the maid in the old lady's room came to deliver the meal. Jiang Xinshan dressed up early and took the big girl to laugh in front of the old lady.

Jiang Xinshan is a few months older than Jiang Xinyao, ranking third, and she is called Miss Three in the house. At her age, when she just took off the baby fat and grew up, she had a bit of girlish charm in her gestures. Over the years, because of his father's relationship, among the wives and officials of Yangzhou City, he has lived like a fish in water, and he has added a bit of grace.

I saw that she picked her figure carefully, her face was long, her lips were powdered, and she was wearing a bright red flower jacket, which really had a budding taste. All in all, Jiang Xinshan's appearance fully confirms a classic quote of Miss Four, that is, bad bamboo shoots are good!

Jiang Xinshan is a smart person. She knew when she was a child that the Jiang family really relied on not Jiang Hongjian, Jiang Hongsheng and the brothers, nor Jiang Zhen, who had just passed away, but the old lady in front of her who was holding Buddhist beads and her eyes were half-closed.

Knowing who was the number one in this mansion, Miss Jiang San, who was only about six or seven years old, bowed the full moon and shot a meteor, only coaxing the old lady to be comfortable. Therefore, in Jiang's mansion, in addition to her three grandsons, the old lady favors Jiang Xinshan alone. Although there are also reasons why the old lady loves the house and Wu, it is more because Jiang Xinshan has a sweet face and a sweet mouth, which can make the old lady happy.

The number one is happy, and the benefits are obvious. Of the four young ladies in the house, except for the eldest lady who got married, Miss Jiang San's food and clothing were the most luxurious. And the position before the old lady collapsed, only Miss Jiang San could sit safely.

When Xin Yao entered the door, the ladies of the big room and the second room had already gathered. A room full of wives, young ladies, maids, servants, and warblers whispered, making her feel that there were thousands of ducks in her ears in an instant.

Seeing that there were all the people, Gu Yuzhen led everyone to the table. As a daughter-in-law, she naturally stood behind the old lady and served.

Xin Yao saw that Aunt Zhou had no one in her eyes, so she sat on the table with a big grin, and couldn't help frowning slightly. She stood behind her mother and was not seated.

Zhou's ears are deaf and clear-sighted. She glanced at Xin Yao lightly and said with a smile: "It's rare for a family to get together today, no need to set any rules, just sit down and have a good reunion dinner." ”

Chen gritted his teeth and said secretly, if you don't say this again, old lady, my face will be ashamed to death. In the big room of Jiang's mansion, the wife of the second room stood and waited for her mother-in-law to eat, but a little aunt sat at the dinner table in a grand manner, what kind of rule is this? Even small households, there is no such precedent.

Chen sneered and glanced at Aunt Zhou a few times, and with a twist of his waist, he pulled his daughter-in-law Shen into the table.

Shen's full name is Shen Ying, a young lady from the Shen family of Suzhou prefect, dressed in Hunan brocade pressed peach blossom side gown, which looks like green bamboo, and teeth like shellfish.

Xin Yao frequently looked sideways. It's a beauty in the end, it's pleasing to the eye when you look at it.

Aunt Zhou sat proudly next to her daughter, her ass not moving a bit. What about the wife? Hmph, the old lady has spoken, who dares to fart?

Jiang Xinyao looked around, first helped her mother sit down, and then sat down according to her mother.

Seeing this, Jiang Xinshan said coquettishly to the Zhou family: "Grandmother, why do these four sisters sit on top of me, doesn't she know that the elders and young are orderly?" In the end, I have lived in the countryside for a few years, and this rule can be seen to be rusty.

The old lady was just about to speak, but Jiang Xinyao snorted and laughed: "The third sister is laughing, my grandfather once taught me that it is right to be orderly between the young and the old, and you have to respect the concubines and concubines, and you must not mess with the rules." ”

Jiang Xinshan has always regarded herself as Miss Yan in Yangzhou City, and she wanted to give the dumb man a dismount, but she didn't want to be a general, so her face was a little ugly.

She just wanted to say a few words in return, but Jiang Xinyu, who was sitting opposite, preemptively said: "The fourth sister is reasonable, the eldest sister often said when she was at home, the most important thing for a big family is not to mess with the rules, and if the rules are messy, that is the root of the mess." ”

Xin Yao's favorability towards the two sisters in Dafang soared, but she didn't take a small flag and shouted cheers on the side!

The eldest grandmother Shen Ying looked at the old lady and hurriedly said: "When I was just a bride, Sister Qiong'er was still in the boudoir, and the words she had spoken were especially in my ears. Now that she has become a mother, she hasn't seen her for a few years, but she misses it very much. ”

Referring to his biological daughter, Chen's smile became a flower: "It's hard for you to be a sister-in-law, and you still miss her." ”

After finishing speaking, Chen snorted coldly at Aunt Zhou, turned his face to the concubine and said with a smile: "You child, why is your sister's words regarded as a holy decree?" If one day, you listen to me like this, you will be Amitabha. ”

Jiang Xinyu smiled and said: "My mother always laughs at me, but I don't follow it." ”

A few women, you say a word, I say a word, and it was very lively for a while.

Jiang Xinyao was happy to watch the play, smiling and supporting her head, looking attentive and listening.

Aunt Zhou's heart exploded. Okay, I've been away from the house for a few years, and you guys get along very happily in the big house and the second room.

Zhou's eyes swept to his niece's face, and he immediately said: "Okay, eat, this fish looks fresh today, Mama Qian, send some to the front yard." ”

The ancients paid attention to the fact that men and women were seven years old at different tables, and the five men of Jiang's Mansion set up another table in the front yard.

When Aunt Zhou heard this, she had to purse her lips angrily and force the anger in her heart.

Seeing this, Mama Qian smiled and said, "Don't worry about the old lady, this dish is complete." Old lady, you use more, these days in the old house, you can't eat and sleep well, but you can reduce a lot! ”

Gu said with a smile: "Mother works hard, this winter bamboo shoot looks fresh, mother uses more." After speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and got up to make vegetables for the old lady.

Aunt Zhou despised in her heart, hasn't your Gu family always been high? Why haven't I seen it for a few years, but I also learned this set. One didn't hold back, so he said sourly: "Yo, I haven't seen these two wives for a few years, and they have changed a lot." ”

As soon as Aunt Zhou's voice fell, Chen's face sank, and she said coldly: "Old lady, I have been married to the Jiang family for more than ten years, and today I only know that an aunt can now shout at the housewife, is there any rule in this house!" ”

The word "aunt" gently spit out from Chen's red lips, how could Aunt Zhou still hold back, and said sharply: "Big lady, aunt's rules are the rules of this house!" ”

Zhou Yujing only felt a headache, she thought that it would be rare to have a complete family, and she didn't have to stick to anything, just sit in one place and have a lively meal. Unexpectedly, before the meal was eaten, he was full of anger, and immediately put the chopsticks on the table, and his face was gloomy.

When the people saw this, they did not dare to speak again.

Mama Qian bowed her head and said a few kind words in the old lady's ear, and the old lady's gloomy face eased slightly.

Chen Shi fell, turned his face in a dacker, let the maid behind him pour a glass of wine, and drank it all in a puff.

Gu smiled and sandwiched a chopstick fish meat for her, and said softly: "Sister-in-law, let's use some vegetables first, and drink wine on an empty stomach, it hurts your stomach." With that, the Gu family gave Shen a look.

Seeing this, Shen Ying diligently served a bowl of chicken soup for her mother-in-law. Jiang Xinyu also sandwiched a chopstick dish and sent it to her mother-in-law's bowl.

Chen's pair of wonderful eyes glared at Aunt Zhou fiercely, and the anger in his heart was smoother.

Not to be outdone, Aunt Zhou looked back at the past, her eyes full of disdain.

With a dry cough, everything was calm again.

Jiang Xinyao was seeing the highlights, and stopped abruptly, with an unfinished look. Auntie, auntie, your firepower is enough, but you forgot that the opponent is plugged in, and it belongs to the golden gun.

Jiang Xinyao sighed secretly, raised her eyes and saw the eyes of the second sister Xinyu, looking at each other and smiling. Jiang Xinyao slowly lowered her eyes.

Jiang Xinshan has no consciousness to be the culprit at all, and is only responsible for fanning the flames, not cleaning up the battlefield. She elegantly raised a piece of beef with chopsticks, gently put it into her mouth, and chewed it slowly, looking as noble as a princess.

Gu Shi glanced at Jiang Xinshan, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes. When did this flamboyant concubine also become smarter.

Chen glanced at it with the same curiosity, and then lowered his head to eat.

Jiang Xinyao looked at the table of delicacies, her appetite was aroused, and no matter how weird the atmosphere on the table was, she ate with relish, and added two bowls of rice in a row.

Seeing this, Aunt Zhou's sneer gradually rose. In the end, he is a person from the countryside, he has never seen the world, and he looks poor and sour.
