Mama Li thought about it, then explained the matter in detail, and cursed Cui Ying dozens of times in her words. Nie Shi looked at her all the way, and when she finished speaking, her brows furrowed slightly: "Mama Li, I didn't say you, but you are also the old lady who took it back to teach Mama, you should pay attention to your appearance in this action, you are now swaggering in the mansion, what kind of system do people see?" Those who know will say that you people are not sensible, and those who don't know are that our eldest lady is not strict in discipline, and you don't know the most important rules in our house, this looks like the old lady, even I can't condone it! ”

Mama Li's disappointed expression fell in Nie's eyes, so at this time, she was bent on building the power of the master's mother, and her words were so refutable that people couldn't find the slightest mistake.

Mama Li originally came in the spirit of playing tricks, but when she heard this, she was afraid of offending the Yu family, but regretted not listening to Liuli's persuasion.

"Madam, don't blame, I'm also red-eyed, and I'm really aggrieved! I'm ......."

Nie raised his hand to stop her, nodded and said, "I understand your grievances. But Mama Li, don't blame me for speaking straight, you also stayed in Jingguo Mansion, ordinary people don't dare to say half a word when you say it, the old lady takes a fancy to your fierce style, so she invites you back, but where is your former majesty now? was tossed like this by a maid! ”

Mama Li was ashamed and ashamed, remembering that she had heard that this fourth lady had spoken well in the past, and now she has learned it, and she really deserves her name. The more I thought about it, the more I cried: "Madame's lesson is that the old slave doesn't want to be powerful, but Madam, you don't know how ruthless Cui Ying's hoof heart is, she is young and strong, and the old slave is her opponent when she fights!" ”

Nie Shi smiled and said, "Mama is really old and confused. As the saying goes, Jiang is still old and spicy, no matter how ruthless she is, can she be ruthless over you? If you want to cure a person, you can't rely on your strength, why don't you use your brain and think of other ways? ”

Mama Li was stunned and muttered, "But, but she is from the old lady's house!" ”

Nie Shi pulled the corners of his mouth coldly: "What about the people in the old lady's house?" Mama, don't forget, you were specially taken back to be the teaching of the nine girls, but now you can't even hold a maid, you put your energy on this all day long, how will you teach the nine girls in the future? Mama thanks to the long house, didn't go to the main courtyard, if the old lady knows that you have not done what you should have done well, but was bullied by a girl and came to complain, wouldn't you not be able to eat and walk around? What a big deal! ”

Nie took a sip of tea and turned his head.

Mama Li's old face was so embarrassed that it barely touched the floor, and the hatred for Cui Ying in her heart immediately burned again, and she clenched her fists at the moment and said to Nie Shi: "Madame's words made the old slave suddenly!" Madame rest assured, the old slave will definitely level Cuiying's hooves as soon as possible, so that she can 'teach' the nine girls! ”

Nie grinned at the corners of his lips and squinted at her retreating.

Yu walked out: "Gone?" ”

Nie got up proudly, "Next, let's ask my sister-in-law to watch a good show!" ”

Yu glanced at her and put on his cloak: "Don't play with fire." ”

After sending Mama Li away, Liuli returned to the room, remembering that Shuhua had not yet given the gift, so she called Rui'er: "I should also have an inkstone, which is auspicious cloud-shaped, engraved with two lines of poetry, you put away the rice paper, wrap the purse and inkstone and send it to the four girls." ”

Tian'er was outside the door, and when she saw Rui'er coming out, she also stepped into the house, poured a cup of tea for Liuli, and said, "Today's matter, Cui Ying is too much, the girl can't indulge her like this anymore." ”

Liuli didn't raise her head, sighed and said, "The two of them are making trouble, who can stop them?" It's embarrassing to say that it's no one. ”

Tian'er sighed and said, "That's what the girl said." However, in the matter of managing money, the girl is afraid that she doesn't know that the money in the hands of others has already been used as support for the family! She Cuiying only thinks that we are all fools, and there are supplies of wax charcoal lamp oil or something in the house, how can we use our own money to make up for it? Since she entered this hospital to serve, her old son has always been able to eat fish and meat at home every day! ”

Liuli stopped embroidering and said seriously: "You can't talk nonsense if you don't understand this kind of thing, I don't think Cui Ying is that kind of person." ”

Tian'er sighed: "The slave is not talking nonsense. She is also the son of the house, her son was the old lady to pick the box, the old lady was young and let go of a few years of foreign appointment, has been followed by him, after returning to Beijing was sent to Zhuangzi, the year before was bitten by a snake and lost a leg, now stay in the northeast corner of the house to watch the door, their family lives in the back alley not far from our house, can the slave be unclear? ”

Liuli stopped the needlework, as if it was the first time she had heard about Cui Ying, but after expressing the novelty, she slowly threaded a needle and said, "Even if you really see their big fish and meat, it doesn't mean that they are bought with our money." ”

Tian'er stomped her feet: "The girl is a master anyway, why is she also pinched by a maid?" If this is to be spread, won't it be a loss of face for the eldest lady! ”

Liuli glanced at her and said, "Then what should I do?" Can't I fight with her and refute her errand? You also saw it, even Mama Li didn't have a problem with her, what can I do? ”

Tian'er thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "There is a way, it depends on whether the girl is willing or not." ”

Liuli raised her eyebrows: "What do you say?" ”

Tian'er said: "The girls in the house are all two second-class maids and four third-class maids, have the girls forgotten that we should have brought in three more people?" Cui Ying is a person in the old lady's house, and keeping her here is also tightly restrained, isn't it? It's hard for our wife to mention this, but if you mention it, girl, it will be much easier. When the time comes, she will be expelled, and the girl will find a trustworthy person to take charge of the money, isn't it a matter of course? ”

She stared at Liuli with both eyes, and her smile was deep and deep.

Liuli picked a yellow thread embroidered stamen, glanced at her, and hung her head again.

It turned out that I was staring at her for a long time. It's the same, although she, the ninth girl, is so poor that she still has two or two months of money every month, and ordinary people can save a little money and spend it for a long time. This year down is twenty-four taels, every New Year's festival elders to reward something, it will be more moisturized, she is still a child, easy to handle, and generous on weekdays, if anyone controls her money box, isn't it a ready-made housekeeper?

Mama Li and Cui Ying are already incompatible, how can Cui Ying, who has the courage of a husband, fight against Yu and Mama Li? Cui Ying is indeed hateful, that is, if Mama Li doesn't come, Liuli will have to teach her a lesson sooner or later, but now what Tian'er said is to be expelled from the house, but in fact, what is the good end of the maid who is expelled from the door? Originally, whether they were dead or alive, Liuli had a way to clean it up, but now that she asked like this, Liuli had to pay attention.

Managing the money is mostly Tian'er's own idea, but the Yu family may not know that she allowed Tian'er to pry Liuli and drive Cui Ying away, didn't she know Cui Ying's details, and warned Cui Ying The real master behind it?

Thinking about it carefully, this matter looks much more complicated than it seems, without Yu's order, Tian'er didn't dare to move Cui Ying, that day she reversed black and white to help Mama Li lie, presumably it was almost a helper.

Tian'er waited for a long time and didn't see her make a sound, thinking that she was hesitating, so she eased her expression and smiled: "It's not that the slave is troublesome." The good slave and maid who treated the slave and maid were all in her heart, and if it was not for the girl to be the master that time, the slave and maid were afraid that they would die. On weekdays, I see Cui Ying crazy and get carried away, but now she sees that the girl is young, and even dares to embezzle the girl's money, and the slave and maid really can't look at it! So girl, some things should be decisive! If you say that there is no reason, then it is easy to do, the girl will leave it to me! ”

After listening to it for a long time, Liuli rubbed her neck and raised her head, and looked into her eyes: "This matter should be discussed in the long run." Cui Ying, I'm used to it, and the newcomers are not easy to use, so let's do it. ”

Tian'er was stunned, but she didn't expect to do useless work after working hard for a long time, so she immediately pursed her mouth and went out.

Besides, Rui'er took the glass to the second room, Min Hua Zhenhua accompanied Shuhua to shoot, and she was a little surprised to see her.

Rui'er explained her intentions, and Shuhua thought for a long time before opening the box. Min Hua looked at Shuhua's hand for a moment and praised: "Good inkstone!" The old lady used to use this inkstone. Shuhua picked up the pair of purses again, and Min Hua nodded again: "This is the stitching method of Shu embroidery, I have practiced according to the book for almost two years, and I can't embroider so naturally." ”

Zhenhua said: "In the eyes of the second sister, everything is good!" ”

Rui'er smiled and said: "Our girl said that this inkstone was left by the original grandfather, and I don't know if it is worth it. As for this purse, the girl will take it and send it away if she doesn't dislike it. ”

Shuhua smiled and put the things back. He looked up and pushed the box back to her: "I understand your girl's good intentions." You take this back. ”

Rui'er froze, and then saw Shuhua with a hint of a smile, and said, "I heard that the old lady gave your girl instructions to guide your grandmother over, how are your girls doing recently?" ”

Rui'er couldn't understand what the four girls were thinking, so she secretly thought about it, and said with her head bowed: "Xie Fourth Girl is worried, our girl is fine." This gift also invites the girl to ......"

As if she hadn't heard what she was saying, Shuhua looked her up and down a few times, smiled, as if she didn't plan to talk to her, and returned to the kang table and sat down.

Rui'er was still waiting to be persuaded, and Min Hua's maid Hongyi walked in at this time: "Girl, someone came from Mrs. Fangcai's side, saying that the eighth girl is not in good health, and Mrs., Mrs., the fourth lady and the aunt have all gone to the third room, and I want the girl to go over and have a look." ”
