"Uncle Qi?"

Shaohua was stunned by this inexplicable title, Liu Xiaoya walked in and said seriously: "It's Uncle Qi Zhigao Qi in Mrs. Gu's family." "Although I know that my name is Zhigao, but I am not tall, if I am a little fatter, I will be like a merchant selling cooking cakes at the entrance of East Street.

When Youhan heard this, he immediately remembered the man who came to the Hou Mansion with Aunt Yan that day to talk provocatively, and while Yan Kaizhi and Aunt Yan were talking, he even secretly moved his mind to tease the little maid. Youhan grinds his teeth and gurgles with hatred for this kind of obscene man, "There is actually a face to come to the door!" ”

Shaohua glanced at Youhan, and then heard Liu Xiaoya say, "But madam, he is already sitting in the lobby." ”

At this moment, Shaohua was also angry, "Who let him in!" "Obviously, she told everyone that day that she was not allowed to let anyone from the Qi family enter the Hou Mansion, they took her words as wind in their ears.

Seeing Shaohua's angry eyes, Liu Xiaoya was startled, "No, I don't know." ”

"Where's Yingjiu Yingluo?" Shaohua looked at Chu He.

Chu He was also angry in his heart, but the two most powerful people around Yan Kaizhi were not there, "Yingjiu and Hou Ye went out together, and Yingluo went out this morning and hasn't come back yet." ”

When I heard that the two most reliable people were not there, could she not come forward? Shaohua's heart was blocked, and he was a little angry, and Chu He hurriedly came up with an idea, "Madam, why don't you go to Mrs. Tai." ”

Youhan secretly sighed that Qi Zhigao was really good at picking time, and he actually chose this time to come to the door, and it was clear that he was looking for trouble for Shaohua. "Didn't Mrs. Tai just say that she was going to the Pure Cause Temple? I can't catch up now. ”

Shaohua shook his head, "No, it's not a way to call her back for this little thing." She wanted to see who was so bold and dared to let Qi Zhigao into the mansion. She shook her spirits, "Chuhe Youhan, you accompany me, Xiaoya, you lead the way." ”

Liu Xiaoya hurriedly turned around to lead the way, and as soon as the master and servant walked to Huisong Hall, they heard a rough and ugly male voice, accompanied by a violent slapping of the table.

"Call Yan Kaizhi to come out!" Qi Zhi sat tall and swaggering on the main seat, with a short figure lined with a big red cotton round-necked robe, looking bloated.

As soon as Shaohua entered the door, she saw four maids standing at the door in a daze, and only when she came to her did she hurriedly bow down. Her beautiful brow furrowed, and she squinted at the man who was sitting on the throne, and her face did not hide her disgust.

Jiao Sheng was furious, and Qi Zhigao was drunk, "Who is so presumptuous, he dares to call Hou Ye by his name!" ”

Qi Zhigao saw that she was a delicate and beautiful girl, her delicate and round face was angry, and she looked even brighter. He immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile: "Yo! It turned out that my brother and sister were at home. ”

Seeing his lewd face, Youhan immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Shaohua, blocking his view. Shao Hua resisted the urge to gag, didn't even look at Qi Zhigao, pointed to the four maids guarding the door, and shouted: "You guys, come in and kneel down for me!" ”

Inexplicably called by Shaohua, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what's going on, I walked in tremblingly, and knelt in front of Shaohua in a row. Qi Zhigao also confused Shaohua's actions, and didn't understand what she wanted to do.

I only heard Shaohua's shout again, and looked at the four people below coldly: "Youhan Chuhe, give each of me ten palms." ”

"Madame, spare your life!" The four maids were all shocked in their hearts, and immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy, completely unaware of why Shaohua was angry with them.

Chuhe Youhan was also confused, and they all looked at Shaohua, and saw a fierce color appear on her face, and her voice became majestic, "Spare your life?" Hmph, your master makes people call people by name and surname, and your pestle is there as wood, and you are so embarrassed that I will spare my life! Give me five more strokes, and see who dares to say spare." At this time, the two of them suddenly realized, and immediately rolled up their sleeves, one person was responsible for two, opened the bow on the left and right, and slapped each hand fifteen times.

The crackling sound of the slap hitting the flesh and face made everyone feel a chill in their hearts, and they couldn't help but sympathize for the four of them, but no one dared to come out to plead. Qi Zhigao, who was standing next to him, saw that Shaohua would give him a ride as soon as he came out, and he ruthlessly beat the four little ladies who were like flowers and jade, and his nose and face were swollen, and he couldn't help but feel a little cowardly.

Shaohua listened to the slaps that fell like raindrops, mixed with their small cries, and spit out a sentence faintly: "This is still in your own territory, you all dare to do this, if you go out of the gate, you must not be bullied." If you are not punished today, someone will dare to come to the door tomorrow to spread wilderness, and the dignified and prosperous Marquis Mansion will be regarded by you as nothing. ”

When they finished slapping Youhan, the faces of the four of them were swollen like long bags, and they didn't dare to cover their faces, so they lowered their heads and sobbed with tears.

"Madame's done."

"Convincing or not?" Shaohua sat on the main seat, squinted at the four people below, and asked in a loud voice.

"Yes." How dare the four of them say no, and they can't help but nod with tears.

Shaohua nodded to Chuhe Youhan with satisfaction, and asked them to take the four maids down first. For a while, the figure hiding outside the window of the door looked at the four maids each covering their red and swollen cheeks, and walked out with tears on their faces, sighing in their hearts, and some of them had disappeared.

"Uh, wait, can you ......" Qi Zhigao looked at the rather majestic Shaohua, and was a little hesitant whether he had come at the wrong time.

Shaohua still ignored her, she glanced at the figure on the window, and when she saw Chu He coming back, she started again: "Chu He, go and call me all the people on duty today, I want to rectify the family rules today, and all those who are not satisfied will be subject to family law." If the fate of the four maids just now only made a small number of people timid, then this sentence can make most of the eavesdroppers frightened.

"Hey, I said ......" Qi Zhigao was dissatisfied with Shaohua's ignorance, and was about to speak, when he saw a man in his thirties walking in from the door. first gave Shaohua a salute, then shook his head and said, "Madam, no!" ”

"Who are you?" Shaohua sneered in his heart, the fox hiding in the dark finally showed his true face.

Steward Cao has a delicate face, a scholarly atmosphere, walking on the street as if he is a student going to Beijing, and he can't see that he is a steward. His voice was clear and his manners were polite, but there was a little contempt in his eyes, "Mrs. Hui, I am the steward of the second gate, and the younger one is surnamed Cao." ”

"You put this mad dog in?" Shaohua glanced at him, didn't even call him, threw a look at Qi Zhigao, sneered at him, and made Qi Zhigao jump up from the chair in anger.

When Steward Cao heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, no, the small one also came when he heard the letter." ”

Shaohua saw that he straightened his waist and did not have the nature of being a slave at all, and he was a little surprised by his origin, but he said: "Then you were also there when he called Hou Ye's name just now?" Very well, then you don't want to run away. Come! When this voice came, several family members immediately ran out, all of them tall, standing beside Steward Cao, lining him very thin.

It's good to let Youhan shout to help her, otherwise she would almost not be able to find someone available to her in this Hou Mansion.

Steward Cao was frightened by this camp, and he didn't expect a few big men from anywhere, and looking at Shaohua's appearance, he deliberately wanted to make trouble with him. His white face turned red, and he squeaked: "Madam, I'm from the palace, and if you want to be beaten or punished, you have to be here." ”

It's okay not to say it, but when she said this, Shaohua's eyes became even colder, and what she wanted to treat was the people from this palace.

"Another one from the palace. The palace is amazing, but the ones who come from the palace are not slaves? I am still the wife of the Marquis of Xingyong given by the emperor, have you ever taken me in your eyes, one or two of them choked with me, dare to love the backer in your palace is more powerful than the emperor? Listening to Shaohua's words, each sentence was sharper and sharper, like a bayonet carved fiercely on Steward Cao's heart, and he listened to it with a face like ashes, and he didn't dare to answer.

"This ......" he couldn't react, and was forced to ask speechless.

"Is it the Queen Mother?" Shaohua's eyes were half-closed, and he looked at the panic on his face for a moment.

"No, it's not." Steward Cao immediately shook his head, the last trace of blood faded, and the whole person seemed to be drained of his soul, depressed.

Shaohua took a deep breath, looked at Steward Cao, who was no longer arrogant, and sneered: "Since it's not, you should tell me what kind of person made you argue with me like this." Now that you don't even look at me, are you convinced? Stretched out his hand and pointed at Steward Cao, who was drooping his head, and said to the big man on the side: "Okay, together with Chief Manager Cao, all of them will be locked up for me, and all of them will be dealt with by the Hou Ye, and no one shall intercede." ”

"Yes!" Several people shouted in unison, as deafening as thunder, ignoring Steward Cao's struggles and dragging him down.

Seeing Steward Cao being dragged away, after looking at it, he caught a glimpse of someone running out in a panic, but his heart felt as if he had taken a reassuring pill. This Cao Steward is just a pawn thrown by Pang Ding, and from his bearing and appearance, it seems that he is still an innocent person. Shaohua grew up in a home full of scholars, and she knew very well that no scholar would succumb to his pride and hide in the Hou Mansion as a steward. As long as they are willing, even if they are extremely poor all their lives, they should stand in the examination room.

can let such a proud scholar come to the Hou Mansion to be in charge, if either the face of the Hou Mansion is too big, or the people in the General Affairs Mansion are too stupid, this is obviously to take him out to test the knife.

Shaohua has frustrated Pang Ding's spirit so drastically, presumably some people should not be able to sit still, but what she wants is that they can't sit still, she doesn't want to be cold and be yin by them again. Since Mrs. Yan generously shook her hand and let her take care of the house, even if there was a river of blood, she would clean this Hou Mansion out of a clean place.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Qi Zhigao's restless figure, and Shao Hua frowned, "Why are you still here?" ”

"I'm here to find Yan Kaizhi." At this moment, Qi Zhigao's voice is not as confident as it was at the beginning.

Shaohua shouted at the door, "What did you hear outside?" Suddenly, a few men appeared out of nowhere, rushed up, some raised their hands, some carried their feet, and actually lifted Qi Zhigao to the top of his head, so frightened that Qi Zhigao struggled in mid-air, "Hey, hey!" I'm not done yet! You put me down! ”

"You are not welcome in this family, you must tell Lingtang, what Hou Ye does not dare to do, it does not mean that I will not dare. Next time I come to the door, I will go to Jingzhao Mansion to complain. Drop-off! Shaohua said coldly, and everyone immediately carried Qi Zhigao towards the door.
