Chapter 23 Regaining control of the books
Early the next morning.
As soon as Xue Hainiang stepped into Tanyuan, she saw the old lady pulling Li lovingly, as if she was chattering about something.
Xue Hainiang lowered her eyes and blessed her body: "Hainiang, please grandmother." ”
The old lady smiled kindly and hurriedly instructed Mama to wait for Xue Hainiang to take a seat.
"Hai Niang, I have seen the white jade Guanyin you ordered Mingxi to send, this thing is a reward from the Queen Mother, it is really valuable, you will take it back after the province today." I don't know if the old lady intentionally or not, she has always worshiped the Buddha, but she actually persuaded Xue Hainiang to take back the white jade Guanyin.
didn't wait for Xue Hainiang to speak, but Li frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Mother, where is this, although the white jade Guanyin is precious, how can it be compared to the filial piety of the sea lady to you, and this child is young and does not respect the Buddha, and it is useless to keep the white jade Guanyin to enjoy it." ”
The old lady couldn't help but raise her lips and smile when she heard the words, but she still shirked and said: "But that thing is a reward from the Queen Mother after all......
Li wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Xue Hainiang's voice like a silver bell, "Grandmother, why should you be polite to Hai Niang? You are Hai Niang's dearest, what is a mere white jade Guanyin? Moreover, as soon as Hai Niang received the reward yesterday, she picked some and sent them to the two aunts and Qiao Ling's room, I wanted to pick some good things to send to your grandmother, but you picked and chose but felt that such vulgar things could not match your grandmother, and you saw that the white jade Guanyin was acceptable, so I sent it to my grandmother...... Now, the two aunts and Qiaoling's sister have all got the jewelry sent by Hai Niang, if grandmother you don't accept this white jade Guanyin, won't you let outsiders say that Hai Niang is not?"
Xue Hainiang's words made the old lady smile when she heard it.
"No wonder the Queen Mother attaches importance to you, girl, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter......"
"Yes, the eldest lady's mouth is really like honey now, but it is like the quiet temperament of the past......
Before the people arrived, the crisp sound of Lin's beads falling on a jade plate came into Tanyuan.
A touch of royal blue Qianying entered, taking lotus steps, Rao is over thirty years old, but still charming, every move is still charming and enchanting, Lin came to the old lady Ying Ying bowed, "Concubine body, please old lady An." ”
The old lady also smiled and bowed her head, and told Mama to sit for the Lin family.
Soon after Lin sat down, Xu and Xue Qiaoling walked into Tanyuan one after another to ask for a salute, and the old lady treated everyone equally, and they all smiled and told Mama to sit.
"Now that everyone is together, the old body has something to know...... the old lady raised her lips, and her eyes that seemed to be smiling seemed to contain a sharp light like a knife, she glanced at everyone present, all of them had a decent smile and a dignified appearance, she said lightly: "The old body may be old, and in recent years, I have become more and more tired, and the old body of the big and small affairs in this house is also untouchable." ”
After that, he looked at the Li family sitting beside him, and continued: "The Li family has been in charge of the backyard affairs for many years, and a few years ago, because of some small mistakes, Jing Zheng handed over the account book of the treasury to the old man to take care of, but in recent years, the old man has seen that the Li family is thoughtful and self-conscious, and the backyard affairs are also handled in an orderly manner, and it is time for the old body to return this account book to the Li family." ”
As soon as these words came out, the others were suddenly a little surprised, Lin Shi was especially obvious, she opened her mouth, and it took a while before she squeezed out her voice: "Old lady, where are you old, are you strong......"
It stands to reason that she is also on the old lady's side, since marrying into the Xue Mansion, she has been trying her best to please the old lady, and she also knows that the old lady does not like the Li family, and today the old lady is so abnormal, she is naturally surprised. Moreover, she didn't want the real power of the Xue family to fall into the hands of the Li family.
The old lady shook her head with a smile, "After all, she is not as young as the Li family, and sooner or later this account book will be handed over to the Li family, so it is better to familiarize her with it now." ”
Xue Hainiang stepped forward to hold the old lady's slightly old hand, and said thoughtfully: "Grandmother is not old, grandmother is young, grandmother is so healthy, even if she is busy for decades, it is okay." ”
"You girl, you'll make me happy......"
The old lady is a stubborn person in her bones, and once she has made a decision, she will not give up because of anyone's dissuasion, so the account book finally went to the hands of the Li family.
Although the Li family understood that the reason why the old lady was like this was because of Xue Hainiang's flattery, she still couldn't believe that the old lady would give her power.
After the morning was finished, after everyone left, Xu stepped forward with a slightly round lower abdomen and congratulated: "Congratulations to Madame for returning to power, and I will ask Madame to take care of it more in the future." ”
Li shook his head very humbly and smiled bitterly: "How can you congratulate you? ”
Xu Shi smiled lightly, and his words were a little flattering, "The capable work hard, and the old lady must feel that the lady is the capable." ”
While the two were greeting, Xue Hainiang stepped forward quietly, "Aunt Xu, is she still comfortable recently?"
Xu Shi smiled and bowed his head, his beautiful eyes contained a little gratitude, "Miss Xie cares, the concubine's body is not abnormal, I have been taking fetal pills and tranquilizers for a lot of sleepiness in recent days, if I hadn't told Red Satin to wake me up on time, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get up today." ”
As she spoke, she bowed her head shyly again, and her white and greasy cheeks were stained with a hint of redness.
Xue Hainiang's eyes flashed slightly, and she couldn't help but look at the Li family next to her, seeing her impermanence, Fang was a little relieved.
Xue Hainiang went straight to the point, with a smile in her phoenix eyes, "Aunt doesn't seem to be satisfied with the medical skills of the house doctor, so she specially invited a doctor from outside to come into the house to see you?"
Chapter Twenty-Six: Fanning the Flames
Xu's slight signs, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure, "The eldest lady is really well-informed, and the concubine did invite a doctor outside the mansion to give me a baby." ”
Li Shi looked at Xu Shi in surprise, obviously, she didn't know about it.
Xue Hainiang hooked her lips and smiled, "The doctor of Mofu who protected the fetus for you has once safed the Lin family's fetus, and he can be regarded as the Lin family's confidant, if you have a bad heart, it is also natural, but the Xue family has a big business and many eyes and ears, so the aunt has to be cautious." ”
Xu's face turned pale, and he instantly understood the meaning of Xue Hainiang's words.
First, Xue Hainiang reminded her that there are many eyes and ears in this mansion, and since she can know about it, the Lin family and the old lady may have heard the rumors.
Second, although Xue Hainiang did not show hostility, she also secretly threatened her and asked her not to be smart.
Seeing that Xu Shi understood, Xue Hainiang got up with a smile, "It's not early, my aunt should rest well, Hai Niang is still the same sentence, if my aunt is uncomfortable in this mansion, send someone to inform Hai Niang, if Hai Niang can help, she will definitely not stand idly by." ”
Really good at being a man, slap a sweet date.
Xu Shi forcibly suppressed the ridicule in her heart, but she didn't dare to have the slightest disrespect on her face, and after today's overt and secret warnings and reminders, she had to re-evaluate the little girl in front of her.
Xu Shi lowered his head and restrained the emotions in his eyes, "Yes, then I will thank the eldest lady first." ”
"Then we'll take our leave. ”
"Lady walks slowly......"
watched the red shadow of the begonia and the figure of the concubine leave together. Xu Shi sketched the beautiful eyes of the demon eye makeup, but it was suddenly surging, and it seemed that the wind and rain were coming.
