With the experience of the sewing room, the next housekeeper was serious when she replied one by one, even if there were arrangements to be deliberately delayed, when she saw a pool of blood in the yard, her face changed, and she didn't dare to make a small move, this is not a provocation to Aunt Zhou, it is a provocation to Master Hou.

The first time the director dealt with all the things in the house, but some of the account books were too late to read, Yu Xijiao and Yu Zhuqing each brought a few account books back to help Aunt Zhou check the accounts first.

"Girl, I heard that Mrs. was reprimanded by Hou Ye, many people heard that Hou Ye was angry in Madame's house and smashed the good tea bowl...... I'm afraid that she has really lost power, and Aunt Zhou will be helped to the position of a flat wife. ”

Mama Xu came in with a few pastries, and she came from the kitchen, and the mothers-in-law who were the most confidants of the Qian family in the past did not dare to swagger at this time.

I heard that the steward of the needlework room was beaten half to death, just because of Aunt Zhou's intentions, and the Hou Ye supported Aunt Zhou, no one dared to underestimate Aunt Zhou's directorship.

Yu Xijiao lowered her eyes and smiled slightly: "This is crying!" ”

Qian thought that by retreating and taking the initiative to find out the power of stewardship, he could avoid his father's anger and cover up the previous witch Gu matter, but he didn't think that since she handed over the power, it would be difficult for the steward to return to her hands in the future.

wants to force Aunt Zhou to retreat despite the difficulties, and wants her father to hand over the stewardship to her again, what Qian thinks is too good!

It's going to be a long day to come, now...... It's just the beginning!

"Third girl, what you said earlier...... About the princess, why is Hou Ye so angry? Qingyue asked curiously, she clearly knew that Hou Ye was angry because her girl told this allusion.

"The princess of the previous dynasty still ended up like this, and the eldest sister is just a princess." Yu Xijiao chuckled, "It's just an eldest sister who will be punished at that time." ”

The Qian family has repeatedly made stupid mistakes, putting the entire Xuanping Marquis Mansion in danger, even if his father doesn't care about it, he understands the stakes at this time, how can he not reprimand the Qian family.

The Qian Mansion coerced his father with kindness and did not dispose of the Qian family, but in this backyard, there was never just a word for leave!

has repeatedly miscalculated, how can the vicious and self-righteous Qian be willing.

Qingyue looked at her girl smiling, she was clearly just a thin and childish delicate girl, but the smile on her lips was a little more calm......

"Third girl, Ya Po is here." Suddenly, there was a voice from outside the door.

Yu Xijiao stood up, Aunt Zhou asked her to pick a few more maids and mothers-in-law before, because of the matter of Nianchun and Yan'er, Yaoshui Pavilion cleaned it again, and took the initiative to ask to help several maids and mothers-in-law of Lanshui Pavilion that day, and now there are fewer people in Yaoshui Pavilion.

Since Ya Po came to the door, Yu Xijiao sat under the porch, ready to pick someone.

This time the Ya Po is not the previous Ya Po, after coming in, he respectfully bowed to Yu Xijiao, and then respectfully introduced the characteristics of the maid ring and the mother-in-law one by one, although the characteristics of many people are similar, "gentle temperament, honest and reliable, the most loyal" and the like are the most heard.

But it also made Yu Xijiao know in her heart.

"Third girl, this girl has a lot of strength, that is, she eats a lot, and there are many brothers and sisters in the family, so she was sold because she couldn't support her." Ya Pozi pointed to a thin girl, looking about fifteen or sixteen years old, her face was very delicate, if it wasn't for Ya Po specifically saying this, who would have thought that the thin girl in front of her actually had a lot of strength.

Yu Xijiao deliberately glanced at this girl ring a few more times, and then listened to Ya Po continue to introduce.

After finishing speaking, Yu Xijiao had a rough idea in her heart, her eyes swept around, and she whispered a few words to Mama Xu, and Mama Xu nodded and went down to choose someone first.

There were a total of forty maids and mothers-in-law who brought, and Mama Xu selected twenty people in the first round, and then questioned them one by one, and then selected ten more people.

Ten people stood in front of Yu Xijiao, looking at the rules and regulations, extremely respectful.

The sky was getting dark, the sun was hanging in the sky, and ten people were standing like this, a few of them were already shaking, and these few were also eliminated.

In the end, five people remained.

Three maid rings, two mothers-in-law.

Yu Xijiao's eyes fell on Yahuan standing in the middle with interest, it was Yahuan who showed great strength, her long eyelashes fell, and slowly fell on the handkerchief in Yahuan's hand, and beckoned to her after seeing it, and Yahuan hurriedly stepped forward.

"What's your name?" Yu Xijiao asked.

"Slave Mingyue." Yahuan replied.

"Mingyue?" Yu Xijiao smiled, "It's really fate, the girl next to me is called Qingyue, but you are Mingyue, this is your own name?" ”

"This is the name of the slave maid herself." Yahuan Road.

"You're still ...... Literate? Yu Xijiao smiled.

"Slaves and maids are literate, slaves and maids used to ...... It's okay, but then something happened to my father, and that's ...... I can't go on anymore. Yahuan bit her lip, her brows furrowed, looking a little pitiful, but thinking about her so-called strength, it was really unbelievable.

This is another family in the middle of the road.

"Are you from the capital?" Yu Xijiao continued to ask, her eyes once again fell on the handkerchief in Yahuan's hand, and a delicate orchid on the handkerchief was facing Yu Xijiao's direction.

"The slave is from the capital." Yahuan said without hesitation, her hand moved again, and Yu Xijiao saw it more clearly this time.

"Is it true that you have a lot of strength?" Yu Xijiao smiled and changed the topic again.

"The slave and the maid are really strong, when they are young, they have a lot of strength, and when they fight with other children, they can't beat the slave and the maid, and then they eat more, and the strength becomes more and more." Yahuan looked a little calm, and she was not timid about Yu Xijiao's questioning.

"Alright then, you can stay!" Yu Xijiao said simply.

"Girl, do you want to ask more?" Seeing that her question was extremely sloppy, Mama Xu said uneasily, Nianchun's matter still makes her feel palpitations, and now when she looks at the new girl ring coming, she feels that she needs to interrogate her properly.

"No need, this girl looks like a governor, so let her make up for the first-class girl ring around me!" Yu Xijiao smiled slightly.

"Girl!" This time, not only Mama Xu was anxious, but Qingyue also raised her eyes anxiously to look at her girl.

The girl has always been cautious in doing things, how could she say such hasty words today, the matter of Nian Chun has only passed.

Yu Xijiao smiled, shook her hand gently, and signaled that they didn't need to worry: "Mama Xu, just leave these few people, you take Yapo down to get the money." ”

Seeing that her own girl was like this, Mama Xu could only respond, and retreated with Ya Po and the others.

Let the other maids and mothers-in-law take them down, Yu Xijiao took Qingyue and the new maid Huan Mingyue into the house together, and the two of them now occupy the gap of her two serious first-class girls.

Wait until you sit down inside, take a sip of the tea handed by Qingyue, then put it down, smile at the worried Qingyue, and then look at Yahuan Mingyue who followed in.

was bought in, and it became a first-class close-fitting big girl ring, for the next person, it is almost a leap to the sky, but whenever there is such a leap, all of them are so excited that they tremble, and they are willing to show loyalty to the new master, and this bright moon is very calm.

Seeing Yu Xijiao's eyes turned, she smiled more and more peacefully, very comfortable, as if the woman in front of her was not her new master, but had grown up since she was a child.

"Can I see your veil?" Yu Xijiao raised her hand elegantly.

"Girl, look." Mingyue happily lifted the handkerchief she was holding in her hand and respectfully handed it to Yu Xijiao.

Yu Xijiao stretched out her hand to take it, looked carefully at the delicate embroidery on it, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes: "What kind of embroidery is this, it looks a little ...... Different. ”

Yu Xijiao, who grew up in Jiangnan since she was a child, has seen a lot of embroidery, and the double-sided embroidery in Jiangnan is the most brilliant of all embroidery, but she has never seen this kind in her eyes.

It's not double-sided embroidery, this embroidery method is a little different from what Yu Xijiao has seen in the past, but it makes people see that this embroidery is a high-quality product, not much worse than the double-sided embroidery in Jiangnan.

Yu Xijiao herself also likes embroidery, which will be even more interested, only to find that these silk threads are thinner than ordinary silk threads, Yu Xijiao turned over and looked at it, guessed: "This is ...... Qidi's tribute embroidery? ”

"What the girl said is that this is Qidi's tribute embroidery!"

"I have heard that there is a tribute embroidery in Qidi, but I haven't really seen it, and there have been tribute embroidery and double-sided embroidery in the Jiangnan area, but I didn't expect it to be true, the number of strands of this tribute embroidery is more than the number of strands in Jiangnan, and it is different from the capital at a glance."

Yu Xijiao sighed, my grandmother once said to herself, Qidi's tribute embroidery is extremely rare, to a certain extent, even more rare than double-sided embroidery, must be in the south of the Yangtze River double-sided embroidery has not been lost, there are exquisite embroidery girls from time to time will pass out double-sided embroidery embroidery, and Qidi's real tribute embroidery, it sounds like it is about to be lost.

"Girl, do you like tribute embroidery?" Mingyue asked with a smile.

Yu Xijiao nodded, it is difficult for girls who grew up in Jiangnan not to like embroidery, compared to the daughter of the family in the capital, the daughter of the family in Jiangnan has higher requirements for embroidery, and she is more willing to paint the embroidery first according to her own requirements, and embroider different embroideries by herself.

In Jiangnan, there is also a small sample of embroidery embroidered by the daughter of the family, but there is no embroidery in the capital, really talking about embroidery, the eldest sister here in Beijing is definitely one of the best, but in Jiangnan, the eldest sister can only be regarded as average.

"It's good if the girl likes it." Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief and took out a small brocade box from her sleeve, "The master said that if the girl likes it, there are still a few pieces of tribute embroidery in it, and the girl can remove it and play with it." ”

Master? Tear it off and play with it?

Qingyue stared at this, then at that, and felt that she understood every word, but why couldn't she understand it when it was connected......
