Erniang stared at Siniang for a long time, but after all, she smiled faintly and didn't say anything more.

Siniang looked at Erniang's expression, but her eyes rolled, and she said tentatively: "The second sister has always treated her sister well, and my sister doesn't dare to forget it in my heart." My sister also wants to stay by the side of the second sister to help the second sister, but she is afraid that she will not have a chance in the future. ”

Erniang didn't move: "Oh? Why? ”

Siniang replied with a shy smile: "Grandmother said that she would send the second sister to the palace, and with the character and appearance of the second sister, Feihuang Tengda is just around the corner." It's just that the second sister entered the palace later, and the younger sister rarely sees the second sister once a year, and she is even more powerless to repay the second sister. ”

Seeing that Erniang was noncommittal, Siniang approached Erniang a little closer: "However, I thought about it and came up with a way to serve the second sister all the time." ”

Erniang stared at Siniang, smiled, and still didn't speak.

Siniang took Erniang as if Erniang was acquiescing to her and continued: "My sister thinks, it's better for the second sister to beg her grandmother and let her sister go into the palace with the second sister." Seeing that Erniang seemed to be smiling, Siniang immediately cursed and swore an oath: "Second sister, don't worry, when you enter the palace, your sister will also take your sister's head as a leader, and she will only be a sharp blade in your hand, and she will not think about it...... I want to compete with my sister for favor. It is said that fighting tiger brothers, father and son soldiers, you and I are sisters, and the palace is very dangerous, if our sisters can work together, what else is there to be afraid of? It's better than the second sister, you're alone in the palace. ”

Erniang stared at Siniang for a long time this time, and couldn't help laughing when she looked at it, Siniang was very confused when she saw Erniang so much, so she could only look at her hopefully and smile.

Erniang saw enough and nodded. The smile was very happy, which made Siniang's eyes light up, but she didn't want to, but Erniang said: "Fourth sister, I haven't seen you in the past few years." You've grown a lot, and you've got the ability to bloom lotus flowers...... Even I was almost moved by what you said. ”

"Second sister......" Siniang didn't sound right and wanted to explain.

Erniang stretched out her hand to interrupt. Her face was pale, and she got up, reached out and gently patted Siniang's head. It's like photographing a domestic puppy: "It's a good thing that you can grow up naturally." It's just that you remember, don't try to play tricks in front of me. Otherwise......"

Speaking of the back, Erniang's voice was soft and soft, but the lack of anger made Siniang shiver.

Seeing that Siniang was frightened by herself, Erniang withdrew her hand with satisfaction, changed her tone, and said lightly: "You want to do things for me, there is an opportunity." You can rest assured. I'm going to let you get it. As for what you ask...... I will find it for you, and I will not treat you badly. Just a little...... You have to be obedient. I hate it the most in front of people, and you're going to have to remember it for me. ”

Although Siniang was a little disappointed because Erniang did not agree to take her into the palace. But she didn't know how she didn't have the courage to disobey Erniang's words, so she only responded in a daze.

Erniang smiled. turned around and went out, leaving only Siniang in the second room.

***

Sun took a nap, and as usual, she recruited Mama Chang to comb her hair.

Since Erniang came back a while ago, Mama Chang rarely served by Sun's side, but because she was the old man around Sun's side, if even she was replaced, it would be suspicious, so Erniang did not drive Mama Chang out of Songling Courtyard, and Sun had many things that were indeed inseparable from Mama Chang, so she only let Mama Chang continue to be the housekeeper of Mama Songlingyuan, and let her still comb her hair for Sun's family, but Erniang personally took a few maids to serve in daily life.

Mama Chang gently asked Sun if he was satisfied with today's French style, and Sun smiled to himself in the mirror and nodded. Her black green silk is what she is most proud of, she has always been babysher-tight, and she is also extremely strict with the person who combs her hair, and now only Mama Chang can comb her hair shape to her satisfaction.

Erniang sat on the side and drank tea without speaking.

At this time, someone outside reported that Xue asked to see him.

Sun had just finished resting, his spirits were still good, and his mood was much better, so he nodded and ordered Xue to come in.

Xue looked up at the people in the room, stepped forward and saluted Sun respectfully.

"Did my mother sleep well? I heard yesterday that the light in my mother's room suddenly turned on for a long time in the middle of the night, but the bed was uncomfortable? Xue said with some concern.

Erniang held the teacup in her hand and paused.

When Sun heard this, he was impatient and said: "Our family is not short of that little candle and lamp oil money, and you still care about me turning on the lights in the middle of the night!" ”

Xue's kindness was misinterpreted, his face turned red, and he hurriedly argued: "Mother, I didn't mean that, I was just afraid that you were uncomfortable and wanted to ask." ”

Sun also seems to know that she is a little unreasonable, her temper has become worse and worse recently, and she wants to get angry at every turn, seeing the grievances and anxiety on Xue's face, she said: "Okay, I just got up in the middle of the night to change clothes, it's not a big deal, you don't need to make a fuss." You are here at this time today, but what is the matter? ”

Although Xue was surprised that it took so long for Sun to get up and go to work at night, she was afraid that Sun would say that she was reluctant to pay for the candle and lamp oil at home, so she closed her mouth vigilantly and said, "My daughter-in-law came here today to ask her mother for help." ”

Sun snorted lightly, and picked out a little emerald gold hairpin from the jewelry box and handed it to Mama Chang.

Xue looked at Sun's face carefully, understood what she meant, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Mother was the daughter-in-law in charge of the house before the future, and now that the mother is here, the family is in charge of the mother." The daughter-in-law rewards money for seniority and wants to learn more in front of her mother. ”

The people in the house were stunned when they heard this, generally speaking, the master mother is unwilling to hand over the power in her hands anymore, even if there are many conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law because of this kind of thing. However, the Xue family offered to hand over the power of the family to the Sun family.

Erniang's eyes flashed when she heard this.

Sun Shi looked at Xue Shi carefully, and saw that her eyes were sincere and frank, not a lie, his face was a little kinder, and he said to Xue Shi with satisfaction: "It's good that you have this heart, but I'm old and impatient to take care of these trivial things, and when I was in Shandong, the affairs of the inner courtyard were also handed over to your sister-in-law to be busy." And now that you are in front of my Dong'er's home, even if you feel that you have little qualifications, you have to learn more. ”

Sun likes to be in control, but she doesn't like trivialities. Xue's is equivalent to surrendering to sincerity, and her daughter-in-law is so upright, she doesn't need to take back her power in one fell swoop, anyway, she is also his daughter-in-law, and everything she wants is a matter of one sentence.

Seeing that the Sun family really did not take back the housekeeping rights as Sanniang said, Xue had more courage in her heart, she looked at Sun and said: "What Mother said is that the daughter-in-law should not ignore her mother's body and push these trivial matters to her mother. It's just that the daughter-in-law really wants to listen to her mother's teachings, and the husband often tells the daughter-in-law that her mother is very experienced in managing the inner courtyard, and the Wang family has been so harmonious because of your mother in charge over the years. ”

Sun was slapped with a smile on his face by such a sycophant, and when he heard that this came from the mouth of his cold and serious third son, this joy expanded a little.

Xue Shi was already much bolder at this time, and continued: "Mother, my daughter-in-law has a reluctant request. The daughter-in-law is naturally not good at always disturbing her mother, but the daughter-in-law thinks that the old grandmothers around her mother have followed her mother for so many years, and she must have learned her mother's skills. Even if it is one or two skills, it is enough for the daughter-in-law to learn, so can the daughter-in-law ask her mother to send an old grandmother to help the daughter-in-law housekee? ”

Sun Shi listened to Xue's request is reasonable, and her face is very bright when she says this, so she nodded: "Even so, I will send someone to help you." It's a good time for you to learn something. ”

Xue was so grateful that he stepped forward to thank him.

Sun thought about it for a while, and saw that Mama Chang was by her side, so she casually ordered: "Mama Chang, you are the oldest person by my side, and you will guide the third lady in the future." She's young, you teach her well. ”

Mama Chang was busy receiving orders.

Xue lowered his head, hiding the light in his eyes and the smile on his lips.

Sanniang is really like a god, and she guessed it well. Even the candidates were calculated by her.

Xue hurriedly thanked Sun again, and then withdrew.

Erniang listened on the side, she originally wanted to intervene, but the people around her were all new maids who had entered the house, and their qualifications were still shallow, so there was no grandma who could suppress people, so she had to give up. And this Mama Chang has always been obedient, and she has always respected her, and she looks at half of her person, so Sun pointed out that Mama Chang is convenient for her to act.

Except for Sun's room, the Xue family couldn't help but exhale.

It's just that this matter is only half done, thinking about the smooth situation just now, Xue Shi is also full of confidence in the next thing.

Xue returned to the room, counted the hours, and saw that it was almost dark, so he sent Mu Lian to the outer courtyard to guard.

I recruited the kitchen steward, the account steward, and the purchasing steward, who were still Mama Xue, to come and talk back.

After the stewards came, Xue talked to them for a while with a pleasant face, and asked a few words about the errand, and the grandmothers looked at each other, not knowing what Xue's intentions were.

Xue Shi saw that it was almost over, so he said: "A few grandmothers have been fortunate all these years, but then you can relax for a while." ”

The ladies looked at each other in amazement.

Xue Shi smiled and said, "You must also know that the old lady is here from Shandong. The old man is used to being in charge of the house at home, and when he entered Beijing, he saw my inner courtyard, but he called me to reprimand me properly. Say I'm inexperienced and can't take care of a housekeeper. ”

Xue glanced at a few grandmothers and sighed slightly: "Just now, my mother has sent a few grandmothers down to help me manage my family affairs." The places that are now in charge are the places that the old lady proposed to be reorganized, so they ......" (to be continued)
