The old lady reclined on the bed, and the waiter chatted while beating her legs:

"Jun'er only came back late yesterday because Xi'er went shopping, not only beat Zhiqiu, but also grounded the second grandmother for three days, is this all true?"

"Yes, old lady, the slave listened to Hongzhu with her own ears"

"Bastard, what's wrong with Jun'er, the new daughter-in-law should always have three days of hot cheering, Xi'er has only been in the door for a few days, this Jun'er is a favorite concubine again, and she is a house-receiving, now it's good, even the new daughter-in-law has been punished, Xi'er is young, the first time she went out of the house, everything is fresher, she returned a little late, and it is enough to punish the girl who followed, why is it enough to punish the master? Jun'er doesn't know that Xi'er is allowed to leave the house, is it because I am old and nosy? ”

"Old lady, don't be angry, the second master is not aimed at you, the slave maid listened to Hongzhu say, at noon on the day you allowed the second grandmother to leave the house, the second grandmother returned to the second master, the second master was not allowed, let the second grandmother come and go back to you, not allowed to go out, the second grandmother was forced to go out, the two people were holding back because of the matter of leaving the house, yesterday, the second grandmother did not say that he would punish the second grandmother, but only to punish Zhiqiu and Hongzhu, it was the second grandmother who asked for punishment and let the second master exempt the two maids, the second master did not come to the stage in front of the slaves, and punished her ruthlessly, It's just a three-day grounding, it's not heavy, old lady, don't go to your heart, how dare the second master go against you, I think I was stunned by the second grandmother, and forgot that you personally allowed it"

"Oh, that's the case, didn't you say that you would punish Hongzhu and Zhiqiu, why did you only punish Zhiqiu later?"

"Old lady, you don't know, the second master punished the second grandmother and exempted the two maids from punishment, but that Zhiqiu only entered the house, I don't know the temper of the second master, I didn't see that the second master's face was black at that time, and he didn't know how to intercede for the second grandmother, and was punished by the second master."

"Zhiqiu, this girl, has only been here for a few days, I can't see it, but she is a loyal minion, but this time she was punished by the second master, and I feel that her master is not patient, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to make her loyal in the future."

"Let's just say yes, the slave guesses that the second master also means this, listening to Hongzhu, now among the minions in Xiao Xiangyuan, except for the four maids that the second grandmother just bought, no one dares to get too close to the second grandmother, saying that they are walking around when they see her during the day, for fear of being bumped into by the second master, and they have to hold a grudge in their hearts."

"These slaves who bully the master, no matter what Xi'er says, is also the master mother who carried in the sedan chair eight times! That's it, Xi'er is not a concubine after all, it is contrary to my Xiao family's ancestral teachings, and it is also a good thing that Jun'er and her are emotionally separated, so as not to untie this knot in the future, we should not know about it, in the future, Jun'er will be good or bad to Xi'er, we just look at it, by the way, you should pay attention to that Zhiqiu, if it is available, in the future, Xi'er will be suspended, so let her come to me"

"Yes, slaves know how to do it"

"Xi'er left the house yesterday, where did she go? What did you buy? ”

"The slave maid heard that the second grandmother went to a few medicine halls and a few silk villages, but nothing else seemed to be visited? Didn't buy anything either."

"Oh, what kind of porridge does she like to make every day, I guess I want to go to the medicine hall to see what kind of kit tonic there is?"

"The slave maid thinks too, I heard that the second grandmother is just curious to look all over the street, and even when she sees the person selling sugar gourds, she rarely asks, how can there be these things in Pingyang City, hehe, the slave maid thinks that the second grandmother may have never been out of the house when she was in her mother's house, and some things are not as good as a three-year-old child."

"Their Li family is a family of businessmen, I heard that Master Li is also a mercenary person, how can a family like us be very kind to their subordinates, not to mention Miss Master, you look at Xi'er's careful appearance every day, you know that she must be tightly controlled when she is in her mother's house"

"By the way, old lady, the slave maid heard Hongxing say that since the second master received the red jade, she has never lived in the second grandmother's house, she has always been in the red jade house, and the second grandmother has moved into the east wing room before."

"Didn't you say that you want a half-moon period? How did this move out, whose idea was it? Jun'er's? This bastard, he's been fine for the past two days, right? ”

When the old lady heard this, she sat up, and a fierce gaze shot out of her eyes.

"The second master has been in good health for the past two days, I heard that he has started to go to the inner study a few days ago, there should be no problem, maybe this half-moon period means that the second master as long as he does not go out of Xiao Xiangyuan, I heard Hongxing say, this is the second grandmother and the second master have asked for instructions"

"As long as Jun'er is fine, keep an eye on it, don't let the second master make any mistakes"

The old lady listened to what the servant said, lay back on the bed, and closed her eyes.

"Yes, slaves know what to do"

The waiter gently thumped the old lady's leg again.

……

The eldest lady was sitting in the main hall, Baozhu rubbed her shoulders, and she listened to Ziyue's report while drinking tea:

"Zhang Rui, the manager of the account room, came to report, and the maid Zhichun in front of the second grandmother went to the account room to pay 50 taels of silver, and used it out of the house, saying that the old lady had allowed it, Zhang Rui only said that because the cash in the account room was tight, he borrowed 30 taels of land."

"Zhang Rui did a good job, when she left the house, she would have to pay 50 taels of silver, what did she think she was?"

"I heard Qian'er in the second master's house say that the second grandmother went out of the house for a day, came back late, and was grounded for three days by the second master, and the second master also ordered someone to beat Zhiqiu"

"The punishment is good, but it's a little light, since the second master has been punished, it's not good for us to make a fuss about this matter, this time it's cheaper for them, didn't Qian'er say that they all went yesterday? Bought something"

"I heard that I visited a few pharmacies and silk shops in the morning, but I didn't buy anything? At noon, I had lunch in Fuguilou, I kept the account, I didn't pay the money, and in the afternoon, the second grandmother went out alone with Zhiqiu and Zhichun."

"This fox spirit has a lot of eyes, and he actually wants to go to the Xiao family's property to eat, without paying the silver, she was cheapened for nothing, where did she go in the afternoon?"

"I didn't know where I went in the afternoon, but I heard that I went to the West Market."

"The next time I let people follow, she won't let me follow, so she will follow quietly, what has she been doing in the house for the past two days?"

"Qian'er said, the second grandmother moved out of the east house the day before yesterday, went to the east wing, today was grounded one day, I heard that it seems to be in the house to let Zhiqiu accompany to write and read with peace of mind, the slave maid heard Qian'er say, her east wing, except for the four maids she bought newly, no one can enter, I don't know what is in it"

"You have to find a way to put someone in the east wing, what good way do you have?"

"The slave can't think of it, but don't worry, big lady, in a few days, let's just take Miss Xiu over, Miss Xiu is smart and clever, she will definitely be able to figure out a way"

The eldest lady squinted her eyes and pondered: it was time to take the show girl......
