Chapter 197: Forced to sell the deed

Chapter 197: Forced to sell the deed

Zhiqiu always felt that the second grandmother was a little unruly in the past two days, and occasionally looked at her with strange eyes, and asked each other several times, but the second grandmother just shook her head, saying that she might be tired these days, and she was also uneasy when she learned that Qiu had been uneasy in the past two days.

On this day, Mengxi was lazily lying on the soft couch, and suddenly wanted to drink bird's nest porridge, so she casually said to Zhiqiu, who was sitting on the embroidery pier and embroidering handkerchiefs for the girls:

"The bird's nest sent by the second master last time, I think it has been soaked, you go to the kitchen to boil a bowl, according to the method I said last time, add some lilies, lotus seeds and rock sugar"

Seeing that the second grandmother wanted to drink bird's nest lotus seed soup, Zhiqiu hurriedly responded, put down the work in his hand, got up and walked out, and just arrived at the door, only to hear the second grandmother shouting:

"That's right, Zhiqiu"

"Second grandma, what's the matter?"

"I remember that the second master sent a set of white jade bowls a few days ago, crystal clear, I like it when I look at it, and I have been thinking about what to do to use it well, and after cooking the porridge, I will use that bowl to serve it."

When Zhiqiu heard this, she looked at the second grandmother in surprise, she had been with the second grandmother for so long, she knew the temperament of the second grandmother, why did she suddenly become so luxurious?

But after seeing the second grandmother finish speaking, she stopped looking at her, and lay there looking at the roof and pondering, Zhiqiu stood there, always felt that something was wrong, shook her head, it seems that the second grandmother is really tired of tossing in the past two days, opened her mouth to persuade two sentences, thought about it or forget it, turned around and walked out.

Listening to Zhiqiu's footsteps and walking away, Mengxi got up and shouted:

"Zhixia"

"Second grandma, what's the matter?"

Zhixia heard the second grandmother call herself, pushed the door and walked in.

"You go to Yichun Hall quickly, find Li Du to send someone over, by the way, let Ouyang Di come over as a little second, and if you want to ask at the second door, you will say that it is Zhiqiu's brother who came to pick up his sister on my orders."

"Second grandma, what are you doing?"

When Na Zhixia heard this, his eyes widened, and he looked at the second grandmother in surprise.

Mengxi glanced at her, didn't answer, and only said to her:

"Go quickly, this matter will be hidden from Zhiqiu and Zhichun for the time being, have you heard; By the way, where did Zhichun go early in the morning, and sent someone to find it back, saying that I had something"

Seeing that the second grandmother was decisive, Zhixia nodded hurriedly, answered, turned around and walked out.

Zhiqiu quickly made the bird's nest lotus seed soup, dragged it in with a silver plate, and when he entered the house, he saw that the second grandmother was still lazy lying there, chatting with Zhichun who was sitting on the embroidery pier, and hurriedly put the silver plate in his hand on the case, and stepped forward to help the second grandmother and said:

"Second grandma, hurry up, the bird's nest lotus seed soup is boiled, just drink it while it's hot"

Mengxi listened, Zhiqiu helped him sit up, reached out to take the wet handkerchief handed over by Zhichun on the side, wiped his hands, saw Zhiqiu picked up the bird's nest lotus seed soup on the silver plate and stirred it with a spoon, sent it over, and hurriedly reached out to pick it up, who knew that she was not careful, a bowl of soup was sprinkled on her, and a good white jade bowl was also shattered, Zhiqiu and Zhichun were taken aback, this has never happened.

The two hurriedly stepped forward to help the second grandmother wipe it with a handkerchief, and Zhiqiu said while wiping:

"Are you hot, second grandma, you stand up first, and the slave will help you take off this dress first?"

Zhiqiu was talking, but the second grandmother's face sank, and she pushed the two of them away and shouted:

"Kneel, no long-eyed minion, the white jade bowl was given by the second master, the material is the best Hetian jade, do you know how much silver it is worth, just smashed it like this, it was a whole set, smashed one, and one set was wasted!"

Zhiqiu Zhichun was shocked by the abnormality of the second grandmother, and stood there looking at her stupidly, and it took a long time to come back to her senses, and she knelt down with a plop.

"Come on, go and ask Mr. De to come over!"

……

Seeing that it is summer, the things in the warehouse should also be sorted out, and the things that should be dried should be taken out to dry, so as not to get moldy and suffer from insects.

"Manager De, the slave has finally found you, the second grandmother just sent someone over, saying that there is an urgent matter, let you go to Xiaoxiang Courtyard quickly"

"Second grandma didn't say anything?"

"I didn't say anything, I just said that I was in a hurry and asked you to go over immediately"

At the beginning of his tenure, Xiao Xia hinted at him, saying that the reason why Manager An was troubled by the second master was because he had abused the second grandmother in the past two years, and was discovered by the second master before he made a move. After taking office, how dare he really listen to the words of the eldest lady and abuse the second grandmother, unless he is like the chief manager, he will not die, all the things that he encounters the second grandmother since he took over as the chief manager, he will secretly deal with the eldest wife.

Listening to the second grandmother's change, he didn't dare to delay, nodded hurriedly and said that he knew, put down the work in his hand, and told a few people who were working, and hurried to Xiao Xiangyuan with a personal servant.

When the two arrived at Xiao Xiang Courtyard, Zhixia had already waited on the second door, and when they saw the manager of De coming, they took him directly to the east wing, and when they arrived at the door, they saw the two big girls kneeling outside the door, and the heart of the manager of De chuckled, I don't know what kind of moth this restless second grandmother is going to have.

Zhiqiu Zhichun is known to him, he is a big celebrity next to the second grandmother, and no one in the entire Xiao Xiang courtyard dares to touch them, how can they be punished for kneeling outside the door in public today?

Nervously following Zhixia into the East Chamber, Manager De came in for the first time, but he didn't dare to look around, turned the screen, and saw that the second grandmother was sitting on it, hurriedly walked a few steps, stepped forward to give the second grandmother a salute and said:

"Second grandma An, I don't know if the second grandma is so anxious to call the slave over, what's the matter?"

"Mr. De also saw it, the two girls kneeling outside the door relied on my usual pet, and they became more and more arrogant, and now they broke the rules again, I see that they are also hard wings, and they don't want to live in peace, so they simply go out and clean, and they follow me, and they also pay off the deed of sale, and send someone from the family to take them away, so as not to let people say that I am ruthless and unjust, and some of them don't chew their tongues."

"Second grandma, this ......"

Seeing that the second grandmother wanted to know the deed of sale of Qiu Zhichun, the housekeeper hesitated, it is said that it is just a trivial matter for the grandmother to take away a maid, but it is generally sent to take it away, and it is sold out of the house, this second grandmother is ingenious, just to leave a generous reputation, she has to return the deed of sale and let the family take it away.

There is no precedent for this matter in the house, and it is just that the second grandmother is favored in the house, but the housewife hates this second grandmother very much, he has only been in office for a few days, and the eldest wife has reminded him more than once that everything should not be too obedient to this second grandmother.

But because of the coercion of the second master, how dare he really listen to the words of the eldest wife, so he had to hide it from the two ends of his hard work every day, secretly sighing that his life was hard, he thought that he had made a good errand, and he didn't want to be caught in the second master and the eldest wife's view every day.

Today, I saw that the second grandmother gave him another problem, and he was in a dilemma, and he didn't know how to deal with it, so he heard the second grandmother slowly say word by word:

"What, Mr. De, I'm a young grandmother, I can't even do this, I must return to the second master, and Mr. De agrees?"

Seeing the mention of the second master, Mr. De remembered how many big things the second grandmother had tossed these days, and according to the rules of the house, she should have been thrown out a few times ago, but the second master has always followed her. Thinking that the second master would definitely not stop this time, hearing the second grandmother's tone of reluctance, how dare she really let her go back to the second master, and hurriedly replied:

"Minions don't dare"

"What else is Mr. Nade hesitating about?"

Mengxi followed up with another question, and the faint tone was like an invisible coercion, which came down from the hall, pressing the air in the hall tightly, and the head of the German steward listened to it and unconsciously oozed cold sweat on his forehead.

Glancing at the little woman sitting above, I saw her sitting there dignifiedly, not angry and arrogant, and her fingers couldn't help but shake twice. Thinking about it, she sent her personal big girl away, it was to cut off her arm, maybe the eldest lady said a panic, and she could still invite the merit, thinking of this, she hurriedly wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve and said:

"How dare the slave stop the second grandmother's business, not to mention that you are also merciful, remembering the old feelings, this is a good thing for the ancestors to accumulate virtue, the slave thinks that it is the second master and the eldest wife, and will only praise you for your kindness and generosity, the second grandmother waits, the slave will go back and get it, and send it to you"

Seeing that Manager De responded, Mengxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she also knew that there was no precedent in the house for this matter today, just now I was really afraid that Manager De insisted on going back to the second master and the eldest wife, and something happened, seeing that Manager De was going to go out, afraid that he would go out and secretly return to the eldest wife, Naken let him go, and hurriedly said:

"Mr. De stays, such a trivial matter, how can you run errands in person, toss back and forth, you just rushed over, I want to be tired, rest here for a while, drink tea, and send a little guy to go."

After Mengxi finished speaking, he turned his head to Zhixia and said:

"Sit down and serve tea to the head of Germany"

Hearing this, Mr. De already understood what the second grandmother meant. Thinking of the second grandmother and the eldest wife, it is really difficult to do it between this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and I secretly complain, this manager of Xiao Mansion is really not a human job!

But the matter has come to this, how dare you disobey the words of the second grandmother, hurriedly responded, and ordered the little servant to take Zhiqiu Zhichun's deed of sale and send it over.

After a while, the little guy came back, and the deed of sale was in hand, and Mengxi let the head of De leave, and instructed Ouyang Di, who was outside early, to know that Xia Chuan was waiting outside.

Zhiqiu knelt outside the door of the East Chamber, watching the people coming in and out of the door of the East Chamber, and the lively maids and women in the courtyard behind; Killed her and didn't believe that the second grandmother, who treated her like a sister on weekdays, would expel herself from the Xiao Mansion for breaking a jade bowl rewarded by the second master.

Speaking from the heart, she didn't miss Xiaofu, but she left, leaving the second grandmother alone in this gloomy compound, she was not at ease, so she stubbornly knelt outside the door of the east chamber and did not leave.

Seeing the regretful eyes of the manager of De who walked out of the east chamber, Zhiqiu's heart trembled, thinking that the second grandmother had already told the manager of De, and she was determined to drive her out of the house, looking at the back of the manager of De, Zhiqiu was unconsciously flustered.
