Chapter 49: Stewardship (2)
Gu Chuyue shook her head a little disappointed, "It's useless, Pearl, do you think Daddy will believe what I said in his heart, who has always been coquettish and domineering?"
And at that time, I also had amnesia, and what I said had no credibility at all, and my father would not believe it, and would think that I was making excuses for myself to go out and play with an injury, and my impression in his heart would only get worse and worse at that time.
And grandmother...... My grandmother has done her best for me in the past few months, and I am willing to let her old man continue to work for me, and I plan to investigate and solve this matter by myself. ”
"Miss......" Pearl's eyes were full of tears, Miss is so kind, how can God be willing to let her suffer so much!
"Pearl, you are the person I trust the most in the academy other than my grandmother, and now you know why I suddenly think about the housekeeper, because I must find out who caused me to be injured and lose my memory, and I will make that person pay."
Pearl wiped away the tears in her eyes and said firmly: "Miss rest assured, the slave will definitely keep a secret for Miss and help Miss find out who is behind the scenes." ”
She looked at Pearl, there were many people who cared about her in this huge bachelor's mansion, and she needed to become strong in order to better protect them.
Grandmothers are, and so are pearls.
Here, Gu Chuyue came out of the study with the front foot, and the news that Gu Yinyuan wanted her to follow the Wang family to learn the housekeeper arrived at the Hidden Jade Pavilion.
Wang had two stacks of account books in front of her, and she was looking at one in her hand, but the more she looked at it, the more her eyebrows wrinkled, "This shop has lost so much money this year, and all I spent a lot of money to invite are a bunch of waste?" ”
As soon as Chang's mother came in, she heard that Mrs. was so angry, and hurriedly handed over a cup of herbal tea, and said with relief: "Madam, you can dissipate your anger, but don't hurt your body because of these trivial things." ”
Wang covered her heart, and after a few breaths, she felt a little soothed, she took the teacup, and her eyebrows were still wrinkled, "What is the word from the little girl in the study?" ”
Mother Chang pursed her lips, "Said that the master instructed the eldest lady to follow you to learn housekeeping." ”
"What?" Wang thought he had misheard.
Mother Chang bypassed the bookcase, walked to Wang's side, and said softly: "The old slave asked carefully, and the little girl over there said that the eldest lady went to the study to bring breakfast to the master today, and the master was unhappy, and was scolded by the master, so she was punished to come and learn from you, saying that the eldest lady should learn how to take care of the house with you, and take care of it." ”
"Have you heard what the eldest lady said?" Wang's forehead said.
Mother Chang shook her head, "This old slave doesn't know, but the eldest lady is also strange to say, she can be scolded by the master if she goes to deliver breakfast early in the morning, I really don't know what she is thinking in her heart?" ”
Wang leaned back on the Taishi chair, and his tone was a little puzzled: "What kind of medicine is sold in the early moon gourd?" ”
Mother Chang raised her head vigilantly, "Madame means that the eldest lady is here for this housekeeping right?" ”
"But if Chu Yue came for the housekeeping right and went to her mother to save more trouble, why was she scolded by the master and punished by the master?" The Wang family couldn't figure out what Gu Chuyue was thinking now.
"Could it be a coincidence?" Wang asked himself.
Mother Chang had an idea, leaned over and said, "Is it unintentional or intentional, Madame will know if she tries it?" ”
"How do you try?" Wang put down the ledger.
Chang's mother moved her eyes to the thick account book on the bookcase, and said, "Madame is not as good as ......."
Wang's heart was instantly overcast, and his heart was much more comfortable at that time, and he leaned back on the Taishi chair, and even the account book on the case felt a lot more pleasing to the eye.
Just thinking about it, her Fei'er and Chuyue are only half a year apart, and when Chuyue is the age to learn housekeeping, it is not too early for Fei'er to follow and study now.
Thinking of this, Wang immediately took action and shouted, "Come on, call the second young lady." ”
Gu Fangfei rarely received a post from You Hu today, and now she is embroidering silk handkerchiefs in the house, she is in a good mood, she listens to her mother's call, puts down the needle and thread and passes.
"Mother, do you have anything to do with me?" Gu Fangfei bent down and went over to Wang's side.
Wang looked at his such an excellent daughter lovingly, and naturally noticed her emotional changes, and said with a smile: "Fei'er has encountered something good, so happy." ”
Gu Fangfei said with a smile: "I don't have to go outside to swim in the lake today, I am naturally happy, those ladies ask me to go to the lake every time, I can't shirk it, I only swim in the lakes in the capital, today I swim on a cloudy day, I even count how many fish are in the lake, and now my daughter feels uncomfortable when she sees the lake." ”
Wang was proud when she heard this, she knew that her daughter was a famous talented woman in the capital, so there were more invitations.
Seeing that her daughter was slightly disgusted on her face, she scolded with a smile: "Look at you, other young ladies like to swim in the lake and write poems to relieve boredom, but you still dislike it, if your father hears this, he will punish you." ”
"Daddy isn't there?" Gu Fangfei shook Wang's arm.
Mother Chang moved the yellow rosewood round stool with embroidered begonia cushion behind Gu Fangfei, and said with a smile: "Second Miss, please take a seat." ”
After Gu Fangfei sat down, Wang went straight to the point: "Fei'er, your eldest sister is about to come to learn housekeeping with me, do you want to learn together?" ”
"Don't."
Gu Fangfei refused without thinking about it.
Wang was puzzled by how quickly she replied, "Why don't you want to learn?" You and your big sister are only half a year apart, and you can study together. ”
Gu Fangfei raised her little face: "This kind of thing is a housekeeper, the eldest sister really has to learn as a concubine, so I don't need it." ”
Wang's face was slightly gloomy, and he said, "She is a concubine, aren't you a concubine?" ”
"Although I am also a daughter-in-law, but the eldest sister is the 'eldest daughter', the eldest daughter is the head, and it is natural to learn some things about the management of the bachelor's house, so I won't disturb the eldest sister to study at this time, so that the mother can better teach the eldest sister." What Gu Fangfei said was a matter of course.
Wang looked at his daughter in front of him, who didn't care at all, and wanted to continue preaching, but was stopped by Chang's mother with a smile, "Madam, what the second miss said is also reasonable." ”
Wang wanted to say something, but Chang's mother shook her head again and again to stop her.
After sending her daughter away, Wang looked at Chang's mother, and there was some complaint in her tone: "Why didn't my mother let me persuade Fei'er again?" ”
Mother Chang added another cup of tea to the Wang family and persuaded: "Madam, the old slave understands your thoughts, but the second young lady is smart, as long as the housekeeping is in your hands, it will never be too late for you to teach."
If you let the second lady study with the eldest lady at this time, this matter will reach the ears of the old lady, and the impression that you have managed to pile up in the old lady's heart will be ruined, and in the eyes of others, your actions seem to be afraid that the eldest lady will overpower the second lady.
After all, the word "eldest lady" can be occupied, and you are the stepmother of the eldest lady, not your own mother, and there are many people staring at your words and deeds. ”
