Chapter 248: Into the Maiden
Back at home, Mrs. Dong's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, remembering that the concubine never said what gift Prince Ren gave her, she couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, I'm also confused, Concubine Mei, Concubine Mei, even if you have become a fine, but if the princess of Prince Ren gave a peerless treasure, you didn't hide it, and didn't let the palace maid take it out to show off?" That is, the things sent by Prince Ren and the princess are really ordinary. ”
In fact, the things Wen Jin sent were indeed very common - canned pineapples, canned oranges, strawberry jam, nine-system tangerine peel, hibiscus plums, etc.
The latter two are specially made by Miao Wangfu, Yuhe holds a delicate small blue and white porcelain jar, tears are like rain, his father has successfully succeeded his grandfather, and he has become the king of Miao Jiang, and she Yuhe, also has the love of the first man in the world as she wishes, the dream of the past has now become a reality, get and pay, ideal and reality, so that Yuhe is full of emotion in an instant.
Yuhe knows that in her cousin's opinion, worldly luxury is all smoke, and living your life well and making your heart happy is the most important thing. Although Wen Jin couldn't go to Miao Jiang to visit, Qian Jun quietly took people away, and what he brought back was not two jars of snacks, but his father's blessing, the good news of the family's happiness and happiness, which is more cherished than the most expensive treasure in the world.
Concubine Dong returned to the palace according to her brother's suggestion and found an excuse to meet Prince Ren: "Princess, you don't care about a beautiful maidservant like the princess, everyone in the capital knows about it." ”
Wen Jin's maidservant hasn't married yet, how do the people in the capital know? Unless the people from Prince Ren's Mansion go out to discuss, and the subordinates gossip about their masters, it is also Prince Ren's lax and disciplined manners, but when Concubine Dong said this, both of them tacitly thought that they were condemning Wen Jin.
Prince Ren had a calm face: "The prince is too fond of the prince, and he turned a deaf ear, what can I do?" ”
Concubine Dong also put on an indignant look: "Now the people in our house are eager to follow the prince and his wife, what should we do?" It's almost impossible to assign those aunts and grandmothers. ”
Prince Ren and Princess Ren knew Concubine Dong's methods, and those subordinates saw her like a mouse seeing a cat, how could they not be assigned? But at this moment, both of them were complaining about the princess, so they didn't investigate the loopholes in her words, but sighed exaggeratedly.
"Princess, those aunts and grandmothers in our house all want to be around the deceased princess, and I can't stop them, so I just let them go, out of sight is clean, and I can't wait to grind my teeth with them."
Princess Ren only felt a fire burning in her heart, burning her uneasy.
Concubine Dong blinked her eyes and asked, "Princess, where did the princess get so much money?" The Xiao family can't give her all their money, right? Don't you have a son over there? I heard that now Mrs. Xiao has also given birth to a son. "The stepmother will always think about her son, and earn the family property with the children in front of her, no matter how good Mrs. Xinxiao's reputation is, she will not give all the family resources to the woman in front of her as a dowry, and she is not stupid.
"How do I know where she got all that money?" Princess Ren said angrily.
Concubine Dong was stunned for a moment, smiled wryly, said goodbye and left, Princess Ren sulked alone in the house, remembering that even the hardcore supporter Jing's mother wanted to go to the princess's side, her heart was very uncomfortable, but how to deal with this matter? For the sake of her son and daughter, Princess Ren did not dare to spend lavishly, especially her son is now like a bottomless pit, how much money is thrown into it without a trace, Princess Ren saw that the money in her hand was getting less and less day by day, and she was also very frightened.
The princess also has two sons, why is she willing to give such a good dowry for the sake of the maid?
It's not a maid, it's four when you get married, this handwriting is really not ordinary.
Cui Ma, who had been against Jing's mother, sneaked in and waved her hand to let the little maid in the corner of the house go out, and Princess Ren frowned slightly when she saw her like this.
"Princess, princess, I have come up with a way, you see if it will work."
Princess Ren didn't speak, she was not smart, she was most afraid of others talking about this, and when someone else came up with an idea, she had this expression.
Cui's mother has long been used to it, and she came over to bless: "Princess Niangniang, the people in our house don't know where the princess got the money, right?" Why is the princess so anxious to insert an eyeliner? The princess's personal maid is married, she always wants to enter the newcomer, right? ”
Princess Ren was overjoyed, this is her forte, Concubine Yang and Concubine Dong are all mixed with her people, only the prince is still ironclad.
It turned out that she didn't give Qian Jun a lot of stuffed people around, and then Qian Jun didn't bring a subordinate, went to Huaijin Mansion, and when she came back, she became very keen, her people just infiltrated in, and they were found out in a few days, and after a long time, Prince Ren and Princess Ren no longer thought about this aspect, so that they didn't think of this trick to deal with the princess.
The prince is surrounded by men, and the princess is really hard to do, now, it is much easier to stuff a maid next to the princess than to stuff a small servant to the prince, and the princess of Ren rolled her eyes and had an idea.
Wen Jin's four maids are about to get married, but there is no reserve force, Wen Jin found Chang's mother, who is in charge of this in the house, and asked her to inform Ya Po and send a few little girls of twelve or thirteen in.
"Princess, most of the slaves in our family use the family to have children, such people know the roots and are reliable." Chang's mother herself has four daughters, the third daughter and the fourth daughter are all in age, so she is particularly firm in carrying out the princess's instructions.
"Well, it's okay, please send a few girls over to my mother, send a few more, from seven or eight years old to twelve or thirteen, I have a big gap here."
"Yes!" Mother Chang left happily and soon sent the news to Prince and Princess Ren.
Princess Ren thought about it again and again, she saw that Wen Jin had married all the maids and left none for her husband, so she was sure that Wen Jin was jealous, so she asked Chang's mother to send the first batch of ten, and they all looked good, but among these people, there was no eyeliner arranged by her.
Princess Ren expected that Wen Jin would return most of the time, and wait for the next batch and the next batch before her talent passed.
Wen Jin knows very well that the use of servants born by the family is not as simple as using the maids brought by her mother's family, but there are disadvantages and benefits, once the minds of these maids are gathered, she can also understand the interpersonal relationships between the top and bottom of Prince Ren's mansion, unlike now, her situation is not known to others, and she also does not know the situation of others, after all, Prince Ren is in charge of the power, and it is more convenient to do things than here, Wen Jin is really a little dark-eyed, and it is difficult to melt into the feeling of Prince Ren's mansion.
The first batch of slaves brought by Chang's mother to come over were really carefully selected, good-looking, and lively, Wen Jin looked at it and nodded: "Let's try it here for a few days first, it's okay to stay, no, it's troublesome to Chang's mother." ”
"All, all stay?" Chang's mother is stammering, her daughter is not in this batch, what can I do?
"Isn't it good to choose the princess?"
"What's there to pick? As long as you have hands and feet, you can't be stupid or stupid. Besides, it's not stupid, and it's not something you can see at a glance. ”
Chang's mother was speechless and left very depressed.
As soon as Princess Ren heard Mother Chang's report, she jumped up: "The first batch of ten people, she took them all?" ”
"Uh-huh."
"This, this, is she smart or stupid? How can there be a maid, the whole end? ”
Only Concubine Dong was secretly happy, those ten people, she had already figured out the details of the two maids, and knew how to handle the family, so as to make these two maids use for herself.
Wen Jin handed over the ten girls to his four maids.
Chunming and Xia Yang are kung fu, they first inspected it, picked out three girls, and prepared to teach them to practice martial arts, although they missed the best age, but they have practiced much better than they have not practiced, how can the maids around the princess be a group of powerless "deputy misses"?
The remaining seven girls, all followed Qiu Shuang and Holly, these two let a few of them, each do a needlework, not only to check the quality, but also to test the speed, and then, also left three, although Prince Ren's mansion has a special embroidery, but that is the territory of Prince Ren, the princess can not be taken care of from this aspect.
There are also four girls, who can be said to be good at nothing, and they have returned to Wen Jin.
"You four, just take care of my daily life for the time being. My requirements are not high, as long as I am honest, conscientious and diligent. When you first come, do what you know to do, and don't do it if you can't ask clearly, and don't be smart. ”
"Yes!" The four girls were apprehensive, thinking that they would send them back, but they didn't expect all the princesses to stay, and they were overjoyed one by one, and replied respectfully in unison.
Wen Jin's things here are simple and simple, serving tea and water, running errands and making calls, cleaning up the house, occasionally accompanying the nurse to take care of the two young masters, the four girls are just starting to face the new environment, they are very well-behaved, and they can do 100% of the things that Chunming advises.
Wen Jin is not in a hurry to draw conclusions, Lu Yao knows the horsepower, and the people will see the hearts of the people over time, even if the ancient people are precocious, the ten of them have just passed through their childhood, and their concentration is not so great.
Chunming has to give Wen Jin a report every day, it is the four of them who give the ten maids a score, Wen Jin can't stare at the maids, with the help of these four pairs of eyes, it is enough.
At the same time, Qian Jun arranged people to find out the family situation of these ten maids, and even their relatives in the house, and the result was beyond Wen Jin's expectations, four of these girls came from Zhuangzi, and three were also girls from ordinary families in the house, and those three, although their father, brother or grandfather, were the little stewards in the house, but they had nothing to do with Prince Ren.
Wen Jin didn't believe that Princess Ren didn't interfere in this matter, but she didn't expect that Princess Ren was going to do it when she planned to enter the second batch, and her good words actually gave Princess Ren a heavy blow, making the opponent hate and angry, but she had nothing to say.
Mother Wu, who was beside Concubine Dong, came back from outside mysteriously this day and whispered to her master: "It's done, Liu Lianchuan accepted the money, and just waited for her daughter to go back to visit relatives, and then gave her a showdown." ”
"No, you can't be in a hurry, you tell him, don't say anything to Liu Fanyan, just let her serve the princess well."
"Yes!" Mother Wu understood what her master meant, and hurriedly went out.
A few days later, she quietly reported a message to her master, and Concubine Dong listened to it, and slapped the table angrily: "I don't know how to lift." ”
Mother Wu stood stiffly to the side, lest Concubine Dong spill her anger on her, who wanted Concubine Dong to say a word of condemnation, waved her hand and let her out.
For the sake of these ten little maids, several masters in Prince Ren's mansion have put a lot of effort into it, Concubine Dong can think of buying a few as eyeliner, and Princess Ren quickly thought of it, and even Concubine Yang, who showed favor to Wen Jin, was not exempt from vulgarity.
Wen Jin knew that she couldn't guard against it in this regard, she simply didn't take precautions, she couldn't say that, it was an important matter, something that should be kept secret, Wen Jin didn't let them get involved, and the rest of the unimportant things were simply made public, and let them go to the master to ask for merit and rewards.
In a blink of an eye, the weather cooled down, Wen Jin's four maids got married one after another, Qiushuang Holly got out of the status of slaves and became commoners, Chunming and Xia Yang are still serving by Wen Jin's side, but they are upgraded from the big girl to the housekeeper's mother, and they don't have to keep vigil for Wen Jin at night, those things are topped by ten people later.
After two months, Wen Jin saw that several girls were still able to do their best, so he gave them new names, namely Chunlan, Xia He, Qiu Ju, and Dongmei, these are four girls who are neither good at female red nor suitable for martial arts, three girls who practice martial arts, called dance, dance makeup, and dancing, and three who are good at female red, called Caijuan, Caixiu, and Caiyun. Ten girls, every morning have to follow Chunming or Xia Yang to practice martial arts, when they have free time, they follow Qiu Shuang and Holly to be female red, Qiu Shuang Holly married, and they follow Jin Jin's nurse to do work. Jin Jin goes to Zongxue every day, his nurse Shun Mom is idle, her needlework is not very good, but she has a lot of knowledge, she can cut and sew well, and she knows a lot of embroidery stitches, and she has high requirements for several girls, her stitches are uneven and fine, but she knows how to do that step, and she is still competent as a teacher. When the first heavy snow of winter fell, Zhou Danniang arrived in the capital, she is now a mother of four children, three sons and one daughter, and her waist is full of money, and her husband's waist is also hard, her mother-in-law used to bully her, what can she do if she is from a good background? Can't stop the decline of the Zhou family, Danniang has silver in her hand and can make money, and now, she has become the main source of income for the Zhou family, and she has three sons to support her, but her mother-in-law has to look at her face - if there is no mutual respect between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it is either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.
