Chapter 207: Retreat is Advance
Being made such a fuss by Qi Zhigao, Shaohua let out a vicious breath by the way, and Mrs. Heng Yan didn't mind what she did with these people at all. It's just that when she thinks of Mrs. Yan's "taking back the deed by the way" and "having time to get back the account book", Shaohua feels that this family is a thousand-year-old fox at all, and she dares to let her son marry her into the door so that she can throw the hot potato to her. And when she said that, she had to be grateful to Mrs. Yan for her generosity, and by the way, she would try her best to give birth to a dozen and a half dozen grandchildren for her to show her filial piety.
Youhan didn't know what Shaohua's frowning brows were thinking, thinking that she was too tired, so she took a few steps over and rubbed her shoulders. Seeing Shaohua let out a breath, he closed his eyes and enjoyed it very much, and praised with a smile: "Madam, your momentum is really good!" ”
When she came back from the outside, she was walking in the wind, and everyone saw her respectfully. Now who doesn't know the momentum of this new lady, if the roar at the beginning just made many people feel that Shaohua is not easy to bully, then Shaohua's ruthless move immediately made many people lose their minds. It was the young envoy who aroused people, and they all agreed one after another, not daring to slack off.
This is the momentum that Mrs. Hou should have, and Youhan enjoys the envious and respectful eyes of the little maids with satisfaction.
Shaohua took her hand, looked at the tender white palm was still slightly swollen, frowned slightly, shook his head and sighed. Seeing Youhan's blank face, he asked softly, "Does it still hurt?" ”
Youhan felt a warmth in her heart, her eyes were warm with emotion, she took off Shaohua's hand, stuck out her tongue, and grimaced: "No, it doesn't hurt, it's actually quite enjoyable." "She really accumulated enough virtue in her previous life to be able to follow such a good master.
Shaohua didn't think so, she thought of the towering redness and swelling on the faces of the four maids just now, and her heart was a little worried. "Go find some medicine and wipe it, I see that you two were beaten with all your heart just now, and the faces of those girls are swollen like that, how can your hands not hurt." To say that she was not surprised, it was a lie, she didn't expect that the girl who usually looked at the delicate girl had so much strength, and she was stunned to beat the four of them to be swollen like a pig's head.
However, Shaohua probably didn't expect that when she was climbing up and down in Biwuxuan, scurrying around. In fact, there is no doubt that the strength of the two is also being exercised, and when a person is bored by jumping rope and kicking shuttlecock, they are the first to suffer. At first, Chuhe's body suffered from a wind cold, which was a lot weaker, and was pulled by Shaohua to run in the courtyard on a cold day, but within half a month, his face was better than before, and he never suffered from the wind cold anymore, even they felt magical.
"Hehe, there is a lady who is distressed, why doesn't it hurt anymore." Youhan made a flattering smile, but Shaohua deliberately straightened her face and pinched her. She covered her arms exaggeratedly, and looked back at Shaohua pitifully with her usual appearance, making Shaohua laugh.
Let Youhan make such a fuss, Shaohua swept away the gloom just now, and his heart became much clearer.
After thinking about it, he still couldn't bear it, so he instructed Youhan: "After the Hou Ye has disposed of everyone, I will send some wound medicine to those girls." ”
"Madame is really a bodhisattva." Youhan sighed sincerely.
"The Bodhisattva wants me to have this heart, and I will never think about preaching for the rest of my life." Shaohua rolled his eyes angrily.
She was just a little embarrassed, after all, these four girls were indeed angry, and many of them had the intention of killing chickens and monkeys. In fact, what should really be dealt with is the person who brought Qi Zhigao here, she doesn't believe that if no one informs her, Qi Zhigao will be so coincidental, specifically picking Yan Kaizhi's absence, Mrs. Yan Jinxiang, Yingjiu Yingluo and several other reliable people come to the door when they leave the house.
Even so, the person who should be held accountable is the person who let Qi Zhigao go, she doesn't believe that the dignified Xingyong Marquis Mansion was said to come by a market horseman, and she said to break in. And with Qi Zhigao's big words, even if the four maids had the heart to stop him, would they really surround him and pinch him? With their strength, they are afraid that Qi Zhigao will be tickled.
The punishment is the punishment, and the scolding is the scolding, but fifteen slaps per person are indeed over, and the crackling sound makes her secretly frightened.
It's just that killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys is that the child is reluctant to catch the wolf, and he finds out a Cao manager, and the Hou Mansion is much cleaner in an instant.
Youhan didn't understand what Shaohua meant, and tilted his head to look at her.
Shaohua waved his hand, thought about it, and felt a little confused: "It's okay, I'm thinking, what is this Qi dwarf here for." "Some people are people who are as they are, but some people are people who are as they wish, and it is also called what is lacking. With Qi Zhigao's five short figures, it is obviously the latter, Zhigao Zhigao, determined to grow taller.
Thinking about it, Shaohua herself felt funny, Youhan softly called her back to her senses, and looked at the figure outside the door: "Madam, Xu Ze is here." ”
Shaohua followed and poked his head out, and happened to see a middle-aged man walking towards the room at the window, dressed in gray clothes, looking like an honest man.
"Who is it?" Xu Ze sounds a little familiar.
Seeing that he was almost at the door, Youhan reminded in a low voice: "Mrs. Hui is Xu Yong's uncle and the housekeeper of the family. Most of the children in the house are surnamed Xu, or they are the in-laws of the Xu family, and there are not a few left left from Mrs. Tai's mother's family. ”
At this time, thinking of Xu Ze's voice outside the house, Shaohua nodded: "Let him come in." ”
Youhan nodded yes, walked out, and introduced Xu Ze into the house.
As soon as he saw Shaohua, Xu Ze immediately knelt on the ground and made a big salute in a proper manner: "The old slave has seen Madame, Madame is blessed." ”
Looking at the man who was kneeling on the ground and only bowed, Shaohua just raised his eyebrows, I don't know why he gave such a big gift. "Steward Xu, is there anything wrong with you coming to me in such a hurry?" You know, his nephew and daughter-in-law dare to argue with her.
Xu Ze knelt on the ground trembling slightly, refused to get up, bowed down, and his mouth was full of self-blame: "The old slave deserves to die!" It's all the fault of the old slave today, but I didn't expect that just going out to take a look at the doctor, I actually let the person surnamed Qi break in, and he also made a big statement at home, it was all the fault of the old slave, please punish Mrs. After speaking, a heavy kowtow sounded like a muffled thunder, crashing into Shaohua's heart, making her dare not underestimate it for a while.
"It's not Steward Xu's duty today, what a crime." Shaohua made a color to Youhan, "Youhan, don't hurry up and help Steward Xu up." ”
When Youhan heard this, he helped Xu Ze up, only to see him with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, looking flattered. "It's the old slave who didn't think it through, and it was Dazhi and Qiqi who were originally on duty at the gate, but the Hou Ye said that the people who were transferred from the palace don't have to be promoted, and those who should do things have to do things. I selfishly thought that the people from the palace must be good for ordinary people, so I dared to transfer them over, but I didn't expect to get into trouble on the first day. If it was Dazhi Qi, they would never let the surnamed Qi break in, let alone allow him to be presumptuous. ”
Listening to Xu Ze's words, Shaohua also softened his tone, made a sudden realization, and immediately said that he knew in his heart that today's matter had nothing to do with the Xu family. "I see, then you can't blame Steward Xu. Hou Ye is right, there is no need to raise the money allocated by the palace, and the discipline and education cannot be relaxed. Mrs. Tai asked me to take care of the house, but I was young and ignorant, and I had to rely on the competent management of many things like Steward Xu. ”
But I couldn't help but secretly sigh in my heart, Xu Ze's move was really ruthless enough: as soon as he came forward, he first picked a charge that was not light or serious, and after getting Shaohua's understanding, he simply put all the faults on Pang Ding and them, and at most he was left unnoticed.
Hearing Shaohua's words of goodwill, Xu Ze immediately showed a satisfied smile on his face, the intention of his move had been achieved. But the tone is already respectful, so that people can't find a thorn, "Don't dare, don't dare, if Madame has something to do, the old slave will definitely do it." The old slave's sister-in-law was fighting with his uncle and unfortunately died, but Mrs. Tai and Hou Ye did not give up and let us serve. More than 20 members of the Xu family were all from the Hou Mansion until their deaths, and we had no second thoughts about Mrs. Hou. ”
If it weren't for the last sentence, maybe Shaohua would have forgotten it, but when he heard Xu Ze mention Xu Yong's Laozi again, Shaohua immediately sneered in his heart.
Are you going to use the bitter meat trick to press her again? As the son of the family, it is a matter of course for the master to be born and die, but in their mouths, it has become a great kindness to the Yan family. Probably Mrs. Yan was so annoyed by their words that she couldn't stand it, and she couldn't erase their credit, so she let her come forward. Fortunately, this was before she entered the Yan family, so she just listened to it as a story.
Shaohua smiled and nodded, and then sighed, "I naturally know this, but yesterday I reprimanded Xu Yong's daughter-in-law, but it was also my helpless move, I hope she can not hold a grudge." She secretly looked at Xu Ze's expression and saw that his eyes were slightly open, obviously a little surprised.
Xu Ze replied with a smile: "How dare you, Madame's lesson is, I found out later, and I also trained her hard." Thanks to Mrs. Love, I also made so many snacks for those babies, being able to serve Mrs. is our ancestor to accumulate virtue, and the old lady will be happy if he knows in God. ”
The third time he heard Xu Ze talk about Yan Su, Shaohua was a little annoyed, and waved his hand: "Okay, Steward Xu is not feeling well, go back and rest, I have other things." ”
As he wished to get the answer he wanted, Xu Ze respectfully thanked him again and again: "Yes, madam, the old slave doesn't bother madam." ”
Seeing that his distant figure was not as frustrated as when he came, Youhan looked at the door for a long time, and when he looked back and saw Shaohua's thoughtful expression, he couldn't help but ask: "Madam, why did this Steward Xu suddenly come to apologize." Could it be that Mrs. Today scares Pang Ding and their sharpness? ”
Shaohua's eyes flashed fiercely, "If he was so easily scared, he wouldn't have climbed to this position in this house." It's just that she doesn't want to offend both sides yet, things are coming too fast, and she hasn't figured out how to deal with it yet.
Youhan felt sorry for her sad appearance and wanted to rub her shoulders, but was stopped by Shaohua.
"Let people wait at the door, if the Hou Ye comes back, let him come to me directly, don't let the people next to him sue first."
When Youhan heard this, she took the order and left, but what they didn't know was that Yan Kaizhi already knew everything that happened in the Hou Mansion before he entered the house. After listening to Yingjiu's report, Yan Kaizhi pursed his lips and refused.
Song Yu teased, "If you're so worried, go back and take a look." Listening to Yingjiu's report, Song Yu was also secretly frightened, he didn't expect Shaohua's methods to be so old-fashioned, this really didn't want to be a little lady like Li Ge Lao.
Yan Kaizhi shook his head, "I believe in her, A-Niang has left her family affairs, so she naturally can trust her." Yan Kaizhi raised his hands in support of Shaohua's actions, he knew better than anyone that he couldn't cure his family if he wasn't ruthless. It's just that those people dare to do bad to Shaohua, it seems that he has to go to the palace.
Song Yu was dissatisfied with his duplicity, "Hey, I'm worried to death, and I still come here to pretend to be calm." ”
After speaking, he was immediately glared at by Yan Kaiyi, Song Yu was not afraid of death and glanced at him provocatively, Yan Kaizhi pressed his arm smoothly, as expected, seeing the panic on Song Yu's face, his eyes were proud, and then he let go.
Song Yu put his hands around his chest, for fear that Yan Kaizhi would take out his hands and bones again to practice and dismantle his bones, and muttered: "Princess wedding, are you ready?" ”
Yan Kaizhi smiled, lowered his eyes, and nodded.
