Chapter 79: Descending the Dragon and Subduing the Tiger
Lin Qi Pavilion.
In the main room, Sheng Honggao sat on the head, and beside him, a woman was lowering her head and concentrating on making tea for him.
This woman's face is delicate, her figure is like a weak willow supporting the wind, and her smile is full of style, it is Sheng Hong's favorite concubine, Lin Yushuang.
Lin Yushuang was gentle, served the brewed tea, Sheng Hong picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, which was his favorite fire, closed his eyes comfortably, and savored the fragrance of tea.
Lin Yushuang Lian stepped into a step, sat next to Sheng Hong, and slowly put his head on his shoulder.
"Honglang~~~"
The tone is tactful and charming, enough to make a man's bones fall off more than half.
Sheng Hong couldn't help but let go of his eyebrows, and was about to reach out to take Lin Yushuang to warm up, when he suddenly saw Lin Yushuang's eyes glistening with tears, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Lin Yushuang looked at Sheng Hong with teary eyes: "Lord, but what did Shuang'er do wrong and make you angry?" β
Sheng Hong was confused, and hurriedly asked, "Where does this start?" β
"Then why did the Lord send so many more people to Qinyun Courtyard, but he didn't discuss it with me, the housekeeper, in advance?"
So that's what happened!
Sheng Hong suddenly realized.
It's nice to beep, but the mess it leaves behind is troublesome.
In fact, Sheng Hong had already been mentally prepared for this, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came out of Qinyun Courtyard, he went straight to Lin Qi Pavilion, and before a quarter of an hour of effort, Lin Yushuang had already heard the news.
Sheng Hong naively thought that it was because the dozen or so servants were moving too much when they went to Qinyun Courtyard, which attracted the attention of the mansion and everyone knew it.
But he didn't know that the little guy next to him had already been bought by Lin Yushuang with a lot of money, and his every move was under Lin Yushuang's control.
Sheng Hong was still thinking about how to explain to Lin Yushuang, but Lin Yushuang had already put the pair of card keys at home on the table, knelt on the ground, and cried to Sheng Hong with tears.
"Shuang'er is a helpless person, thanks to the lord's mercy to get to where I am today, since the lord thinks that Shuang'er's housekeeper is not good, please ask the lord to take back the right of this housekeeper, and it can also make me feel easy."
"Shuang'er, why are you so troubled!"
Sheng Hong was shocked, and hurriedly leaned over to support Lin Yushuang: "The old lady has never been a director, the eldest lady is busy with Hua Lan's marriage these days and has no time to separate, there are many trivial matters in the family, only Shuang'er can you share my worries for me, how can you bear to abandon me!" β
Lin Yushuang leaned on Sheng Hong's shoulder and sobbed: "I'm just a concubine, and the power to be in charge of the housekeeper is to serve the public, this time the lord sent so many people to the courtyard of Sister Shuyi, I didn't know it in advance, and the people below saw it, how would they obey me in the future?" β
"This ......"
Sheng Hong couldn't help but show embarrassment, this matter was indeed something he did wrong, he was praised by Wei Chen at that time, and he made a decision as soon as his brain was hot, and when he recalled it at this time, he regretted it in his heart.
If he was still Wang Ruofu's housekeeper, Sheng Hong wouldn't care too much, the big deal was to quarrel again, Sheng Hong would have been used to it for a long time.
But now he is the housekeeper of Lin Yushuang, a big baby, which makes Sheng Hong have a headache.
Sheng Hong looked at Lin Yushuang, who was crying pitifully, and saw that she was wearing a thin dark blue plain dress, and her waist was full of hands, and she seemed to be much thinner than before.
Probably because I'm busy with housekeeping these days, and I have a lot of chores, so I'm too tired.
When Sheng Hong thought of this, he couldn't help but feel ashamed, took Lin Yushuang in his arms, and comforted him softly.
However, appeasement is appeasement, if you want Sheng Hong to take back your life, it is absolutely impossible, Sheng Hong just sent people over in front of Wei Chen, and when he turned his head, he broke his promise and became fat, so where is the face of his Sheng family?
When it comes to faΓ§ade matters, Sheng Hong is still very clear, and he will not be easily shaken because Lin Yushuang shed a few tears.
Therefore, Sheng Hong only assured Lin Yushuang that during Lin Yushuang's housekeeping, he would definitely discuss with Lin Yushuang in advance about anything involving internal affairs. Moreover, if Lin Yushuang manages it well, it is not impossible to manage it in the future.
As for the current problem of the overallocation of people in Qinyun Courtyard, Sheng Hong also expressed his position and allowed Lin Yushuang to select a few of the best female envoys from Qinyun Courtyard to supplement Lin Qi Pavilion after a while as compensation.
All in all, everything remains unchanged, although Lin Yushuang has to suffer a little grievance now, the benefits in the future will definitely be greatly reduced.
For Lin Yushuang, this result is not perfect, but she is a smart person and knows when she should accept it, so even if she is unwilling, she can only press it for the time being.
Put away your tears at the moment, cheer up, take out all the housekeeping skills, and dedicate yourself to Sheng Hong.
Sheng Hong warmed the nephrite jade at Lin Yushuang for a long time, and then went straight to Wei Ruixuan, he had already made up his mind to solve the troubles at both ends together, so as to save some bullshit incidents.
He came to the main room of Wei Ruixuan, and retreated left and right, leaving only the husband and wife to talk in the inner room.
After Sheng Hong explained the matter of Qinyun Courtyard today, Wang Ruofu was expressionless, and said indifferently: "You are the head of the family, you can do whatever you want, how dare I have half a word!" β
Sheng Hong took a deep breath, resisted the urge to throw his sleeves and go out, and said in a deep voice: "Who do you think I'm doing this for, not for Brother Bai's future!" β
Wang Ruofu was slightly shocked in his heart, but he still refused to forgive: "Come on, Bai'er went to Youyang to take the exam, and I have been there for more than half a year, and I haven't seen you ask." β
"Bai'er is fifteen years old, and he is a talented person, so he should be self-reliant and self-reliant, why do you want my father to ask about everything? Forget it, I'm not going to talk to you about that today. β
Although Sheng Hong was annoyed by Wang Ruofu's nonsense, he thought of his son Changbai, but he still tried to calm down, sat next to Wang Ruofu, and whispered: "Bai'er is so competitive, in the final analysis, it is your mother who has a good upbringing, if Bai'er is named on the gold list in the future, you will also be a great achievement, and I know all these in my heart." β
"Okay, what do you do?"
Wang Ruofu pretended to be angry, but his heart was sweet, and the expression on his face softened a lot: "What did you just say about Qinyun Courtyard, what does it have to do with Bai'er?" β
Sheng Hong said slowly: "I'm for Wei Chen, of course, the most important thing is for Wei Chen's teacher, Mr. Qingteng Zhuang Jun." β
"Zhuang Jun?" Wang Ruofu frowned and said: "Didn't the old lady already promise that she would write to invite him to teach in the Sheng family after the year, why should we please a junior again?" β
Sheng Hong asked: "Zhuang Jun's fame moves the world, how many scholars in Da Zhou want to worship in his name but can't, do you dare to guarantee that the old lady's letter can invite him?" β
"This ......" Wang Ruofu hesitated: "Didn't you say that Zhuang Jun is a subordinate of the old marquis, and the relationship between the two is irreversible?" The old lady is the only daughter of the old marquis, Zhuang Jun doesn't look at the monk's face, but also has to look at the Buddha's face, right? Besides, listening to the old lady's tone, she is very determined! β
"Time passes, people's hearts will change, although the old lady and Zhuang Jun are old friends, but they have not been in touch for many years, who knows what the other party's attitude is?"
Sheng Hong explained bitterly: "It's Wei Chen, he is Zhuang Jun's only mantle disciple, he must be very valued by Zhuang Jun, if he can hand over a few words in front of Zhuang Jun, maybe it will be more useful than the old lady's old friend." Now it's just a matter of sending a few servants, and as long as you can get a Master for Bo'er, it's worth sending twice as much. β
Only then did Wang Ruofu understand Sheng Hong's hard work, it turned out that her husband deliberately befriended Wei Chen, all for the sake of Changbai's future, and she couldn't help but feel tender in her heart, and she was also ashamed of her previous face to Sheng Hong.
Sheng Hong hugged Wang Ruofu's waist and stroked it gently: "The beloved son of his parents has far-reaching plans, you are a young lady, and you should know that everything is based on the rise and fall of the family, honor and disgrace, and everything else is false." β
Wang Ruofu hadn't been intimate with Sheng Hong for a long time, and when he touched him a few times, his body and mind were half soft, and he actually had the taste of a bird when he spoke.
"The officials are right, I listen to the officials."
