returned to the palace where she lived, Gu Wanyin asked Mei Ruo to go down and rest. Mei Ruo was probably in a hurry to return to someone, but she didn't shirk it, and hurriedly retreated after a hasty thank-you.

Gu Wanyin changed her clothes, freshened up again, and then went to find the old lady again.

When the old lady saw her enter the house, her face also showed a hint of eagerness, and she couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?" What news can I find out when I go out? ”

Gu Wanyin didn't sell it, but she didn't want the old lady to worry, so she only said that there was no news, and there were not many opportunities to investigate, so she really didn't find out.

"Why didn't you find out?" The old lady frowned, glanced at Gu Wanyin with distrust, and her tone was also a little questioning.

"The female officials in the palace went with them, so it was not good to keep inquiring." Gu Wanyin said truthfully, "But the old lady doesn't have to worry, it seems that there is no worse news, otherwise my mother's family will find an opportunity to tell me." ”

"What about our family?" Although the old lady was annoyed, she had no choice but to put it aside for the time being and ask about the Zhou family's own situation instead.

"I met the third aunt today." Gu Wanyin said with a smile, and then carefully repeated what she said after meeting the third lady to the old lady one by one.

"She's also capable." The old lady sighed after hearing this: "It's a pity, but I married the third child." I don't have a good background. "Otherwise, in the early years, she could let the third wife take care of the house. The third wife's ability is better than that of the second wife.

Gu Wanyin's fingers shrank and slowly lowered her head. The third wife is the daughter of a businessman and has a bad background. But her own background is not good, is it?

"You're tired of the day, too. Go back and rest. Seeing that Gu Wanyin was silent, and looking thinner than before, the old lady still felt soft in her heart, and said in a soft voice. Jing'er doesn't know when she will come back, and you can't fall down no matter what. ”

"Yes, old lady." Gu Wanyin felt a little better in her heart, and the smile on her face was no longer so reluctant.

"Go ahead." The old lady waved her hand, and she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

After withdrawing from the old lady's room, Gu Wanyin was really tired, so she went back to her room to make up for sleep.

I don't know how Mei Ruo replied. But then there was no other movement. The days began to pass so dullly. Gu Wanyin was looking forward to Zhou Ruijing's news on the second day before going to bed every day, but she was extremely disappointed every second day.

Besides, on the other side of the Gu family, when the Zhang family entered the door, many things in the Gu family naturally had to change.

For example, the management of the feed. For example, Qi's daily greetings, for example. Some rules in the house.

Zhang is indeed a resolute person. On the second day of the wedding, after greeting Mrs. Gu, after taking over the feed, he gathered his subordinates in one place in the afternoon of the same day. I am going to give a lecture.

In the courtyard where the Zhang family lives, the housekeeper is a mother-in-law or some servants with heads and faces. It's all here.

Zhang sat on the chair and swept his eyes around, his gaze was a bit fierce and majestic, but it made people dare not violate; For a while, there was no sound except the sound of the wind blowing. Those people held their breath and did not dare to have the slightest contempt.

"From now on, I will be in charge." Zhang said in a deep voice: "Every morning, you come over to talk. I'll take care of things. I don't have to come every afternoon unless it's something of great importance. ”

"Yes. Madam. The crowd replied in unison.

"And. Some people are accustomed to lying about the price from the house, making the difference, or taking kickbacks. If I find out. No mercy! At least he will be removed from his position, and at worst, the whole family will be thrown out of the house! Seeing that they were all faces, Zhang didn't have much sincerity. He sneered, and suddenly said in an aggravated tone: "In addition, you can also report each other." If a subordinate reports to a superior and thoroughly investigates the truth, he will be removed from his position and the person who reported it will be replaced! ”

At last the faces of the people changed, some panicked, some joyful, and some contemplative.

Seeing this, Zhang was finally satisfied. At that moment, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he glanced at it again, and then waved his hand: "Okay, you will bring me the account books of the past few years in a while, as well as various old calendars for the New Year's holidays." It's okay, just disperse, do a good job, there will naturally be rewards, and those who steal Jiān and play slippery, don't leave anything to chance. ”

After the lecture, after everyone had dispersed, I got up and went back to the house.

Gu Changfei was sitting on a chair drinking tea, and when he saw Zhang's Nana walking in, he laughed: "What a majestic housekeeper grandmother." ”

Zhang glanced at Gu Changfei and said angrily: "If I am not majestic, they still don't treat me as a lamb?" So how do you take care of the house? Why, looking at me like this, are you scared? Zhang's words were a little funny.

Gu Changfei immediately felt that the bones on his body were crispy, and in all fairness, although Mrs. Li and the Qi family were also extremely beautiful, they were not as temperamental as the Zhang family. Zhang's gestures have a fēngliu attitude, but they are dignified and amiable, and Mrs. Li and Qi are compared with each other, and the high and low are immediately apparent.

What's more, Mrs. Li is now imprisoned, and the Qi family is pregnant. In addition, the two of them have been with him for so many years, and their age has gone up, and the novelty has also faded, so they are naturally inferior to Zhang's everywhere.

Hearing Zhang's joke like this, Gu Changfei also chuckled: "I'm afraid of what you will do?" You're just majestic, aren't you still my lady? ”

"It's not serious." Zhang sneered, pushed Gu Changfei away, frowned and was a little dissatisfied: "It's still a lady!" Who took me as a serious lady? Your two concubines are a little too proud. Anyway, you should come over and say goodbye? Isn't it possible to wait for me to meet them? How can this be true? I see, it's because you spoil them that you indulge them into lawlessness! ”

Gu Changfei's face turned red, revealing a look of loss. But remembering that the Qi family is now pregnant, she said: "Li Niang don't mention it, just think that our family is not as good as her." As for the other, she's pregnant—"

"What's the matter, if you're pregnant, you don't even want the rules?" Zhang continued to sneer, "She's just here to see me, will I eat her?" ”

Gu Changfei was so stunned that he couldn't say a word, but the strange thing was that he was not the slightest bit annoyed by Zhang's complaints. On the contrary, I feel that the Qi family is indeed at a loss. If it were the usual, maybe he would think that the Zhang family was too aggressive.

The reason why there is such a change is really because, when the Zhang family welcomed his relatives, after seeing the pomp and many rules of the Zhang family, he was a little ashamed of himself;

Therefore, there is such a situation - he feels that the Zhang family is just to make the Gu family better, not to target the Qi family.

Of course, Zhang's purpose is also to manage the Gu family. However, in his selfish heart, he did not mean to give the Qi family a dismissal.

Gu Changfei saw that the Zhang family was unhappy, and immediately said: "In this way, I will ask her to come and greet you." ”

Zhang pondered for a moment, but suddenly smiled brightly: "No need." Since she won't come, let's just go. I'd like to see how she raised the baby. ”

Gu Changfei complained bitterly in his heart, but he was helpless. When Zhang looked over with a smile, he had to nod his head: "Okay, let's go over." "It's just that in my heart, I prayed - it's best that the Qi family is raising the fetus, otherwise, wouldn't the two have a conflict?

After all, the Qi family has been with him for so many years, and he has always been in a relationship, plus he has given birth to two children, and now he is pregnant. Therefore, Gu Changfei's feelings for the Qi family are a little different.

Zhang's hands and feet said to do it, and he didn't hesitate, and immediately pulled Gu Changfei to Qi's house.

Qi had just taken a nap and was combing his hair when he heard the girl outside the door calling "Master". When he landed, Qi Shi was happy in his heart, and he was about to get up but he didn't know what he thought, but suddenly he didn't hear it, and continued to comb his hair for a while. It's just that although the eyes are looking in the mirror, the ears are always paying attention to the movement in the room.

Immediately, Qi heard footsteps from far and near. But she didn't hear the footsteps.

Qi was secretly happy in his heart, but he concentrated more and more on combing his hair.

Therefore, as soon as Gu Changfei and Zhang entered the house, they saw Qi combing his hair.

Zhang was not in a hurry to speak, but first looked at Qi from head to toe with his eyes. Immediately, he sneered in his heart - it seems that Gu Changfei really spoils this little concubine Qi on weekdays. When the old man entered the house, he didn't get up to greet him, but combed his hair casually. What kind of rule is this?

Gu Changfei didn't think about it so much, but he just felt that it was very bad for the Qi family to let the Zhang family see it like this. At the moment, his face sank a little, and his tone was not as intimate as before: "What are you doing here?" ”

Hearing this, the Qi family turned his head and was about to speak, but he unexpectedly saw the Zhang family next to Gu Changfei, who was dressed in crimson and festive, graceful and luxurious. When he landed, the whole person was stunned, and the whole person was stiff.

Qi Shi was stunned for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses.

Gu Changfei was in a hurry, firstly, to remind the Qi family, and secondly, he really felt that it was inappropriate in his heart, so he said in a deep voice: "This is Madame, why don't you salute quickly?" ”

Only then did Qi suddenly come back to his senses. It's just that after listening to Gu Changfei's words, her face turned white, and her heart suddenly didn't feel good—but the Qi family was not a fool, she naturally knew that she was indeed out of shape, so she hurriedly got up and saluted respectfully: "Concubine to Mrs. Hello." ”

"You're Qi?" Zhang didn't smile either, and his tone was extremely flat. Fang Ruo never took Qi in his eyes at all.

Qi bit his lip, feeling a little aggrieved in his heart, but he still replied respectfully on his face: "Yes, madam.;
