Early the next morning.

Xi Qingyan's new official took office three times, and she asked Chun Tao to find all the servants in the mansion.

She herself sat in the courtyard and waited for everyone.

"Miss, all the servants of Shangshu Mansion have come to the courtyard, and I ask Missie to teach you a lesson."

"Okay."

Xi Qingyan got up, swept the servants in the courtyard slightly, and then spoke.

"Ladies and gentlemen, from today onwards, the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites will be managed by me, and the affairs of the Mansion will be transferred by me, if anyone breaks the rules, don't blame Miss Ben's ruthlessness when the time comes!"

"Miss Ben doesn't care who you were in the past, in the future, you will only be a person from the Ministry of Rites Shangshufu, if you still can't tell your identity, then get out of Shangshufu as soon as possible, and if you make any mistakes by Miss Ben, we won't look good at that time!"

"However, Miss Ben has clear rewards and punishments, and for those who abide by the law and abide by the rules of Shangshu Mansion, Miss Ben will naturally treat them well."

"Those who have been in Shangshu Mansion for three or five years will increase their monthly money by one penny of silver every other year, and the old man who has been in Shangshu Mansion for ten or eight years, as long as they abide by the rules of the mansion and devote themselves to the affairs of Shangshufu, every other year, their monthly money will increase by two coins of silver."

Xi Qingyan knew that if he wanted the horses to run, he had to let the horses eat grass.

Now, this Ministry of Rites Shangshu Mansion has been controlled by Mrs. Shangshu for so many years, if you don't use some extraordinary means, then the people below will only watch the excitement from the sidelines, and don't do practical things.

"Thank you, Miss, the minions have remembered! I must work hard, be loyal to Shangshufu, and be loyal to the eldest lady!"

Before everyone spoke, Chun Tao took the initiative to support Xi Qingyan's actions.

"Together with Sister Chuntao, we will be loyal to Shangshu Mansion and the eldest lady!"

The servants in the Hanlian Garden also followed closely to show their attitude, and then the people in the other courtyards also agreed.

Except for the people in Madame Shangshu's courtyard, everyone else took a stand.

"Miss, we were originally the minions of Shangshu Mansion, and we used to be the same now! Miss, you don't have to draw us a pie here, we just want to know when you are going to send us this month's monthly money, Miss?"

"Miss, we are all old people from Shangshufu, we have done things in Shangshufu for so many years, we don't need to teach us one by one, Miss, we all know what to do."

"Miss, please forgive me for saying something that I don't like, you are a daughter who has not left the cabinet, although your reputation is stinky, but in the end you are going to leave the Shangshu Mansion to marry, as the saying goes, the married daughter spills the water, why do you say that you have to deal with us at this time as the old people of the Shangshu Mansion?"

"Miss, the in-laws you are going to marry in the future will bully you at that time, and you need people from Shangshu Mansion to stand up and support you, do you say that you treat us like this is a bit too careless?"

The servants of the Peony Garden, one by one, were sharp-toothed and sharp-mouthed, deliberately blocking her on the first day that Xi Qingyan was in charge.

They were originally found by Mrs. Shangshu and instructed them in private, so they deliberately said these ugly words to Xi Qingyan here today.

"Miss Ben will never fail to fulfill what she promised, you four don't have to deliberately talk in a weird yin and yang here, Chun Tao, send monthly money!"

Xi Qingyan noticed that the servants on the side heard that these four people were sowing discord, and they immediately talked about her.

She sent the money this month in due course.

"Yes, Miss!"

Chun Tao took the account room in Shangshu's mansion and sent a lot of this month's monthly money to the servants in front of everyone, because Xi Qingyan did what he said, and those who were personally shaken because of Mrs. Shangshu's henchmen suddenly thanked Xi Qingyan again.

"Thank you, Miss! Now I have all the rice and noodles at home, which is really good!"

"Miss, you're really talking! We admire you, Miss!"

"Miss, thank you, Miss, if this Shangshu Mansion doesn't send a moon again

When it comes to money, my family really doesn't know what to do!"

The crowd shouted praise for the eldest lady.

Except for those henchmen of Madame Shangshu who were unhappy, everyone else was happy.

"Miss, the amount of money you sent me for all these months is not right! Miss, I'm the old lady in the lady's room, and according to the custom, you should give me five taels of silver, but why did you give me two taels of silver?"

"Miss, my number is not right! Why do I only have three taels of silver?"

"I only have two taels of silver!"

Because after the first person found out that the amount of silver in his hand did not match, the other three also found that the amount of silver in his hand was very wrong.

"Miss, are you targeting the people of Peony Garden? Why is it that the people in the courtyard next to them have no less money per month, but only a few of us have less money?"

"Miss, even if Madame is not your biological mother, she is also your stepmother, and Madame is the real lady brought in from outside by our master!"

Mrs. Shangshu's henchmen were very angry after finding out that they were targeted, they were showing off their might in Shangshu Mansion on weekdays, but now, they didn't expect to become the target of bullying by others!

They can't stand such a different treatment!

"Miss, let me tell you, you are targeting us so indiscriminately, that is targeting Madame! Now Mrs. is only sick for a while, so that your daughter's house, who has not been out of the cabinet, has climbed on her head and bullied! But if Madame is cured, this family still needs to be taken care of by Madame!"

In the past, they bullied people, but now they are bullied, and the more they think about it, the more angry they are!

"Miss, you just kept saying that you would be a fair housekeeper, and now you are acting like this every day as soon as you turn your face, and you are not afraid that no one will want to believe you after you hit your mouth!"

"Miss, be a man and leave a line, good to you and good to all of us! People say that it depends on the owner to beat the dog, and now that you are so blatantly targeting us people, you are not afraid that you will not be able to explain when the lady returns to the helm of the family?"

These cunning servants, they threaten Xi Qingyan in front of everyone, and not only that, but they are also terrific and arrogant.

"Chun Tao, tell them why I withheld their monthly money!"

Xi Qingyan didn't want to talk to these boring people here, they just wanted her Xi Qingyan to surrender her identity, and then her housekeeping would easily become the object of ridicule from everyone.

"Yes!"

Chun Tao thought that it was fortunate that their eldest lady had prepared in advance, otherwise, this lady of Peony Garden might have directly eaten and skinned their eldest lady alive!

"Zhao Shi's family, you said that your monthly money should have been five taels of silver, and it is recorded in the account books of this mansion that you are specifically responsible for purchasing charcoal used for burning firewood in Shangshu Mansion, right?"

"This charcoal market only sells for ten yuan a bundle, you have to call back to tell the gentleman in the accounting room, you tell them that the charcoal outside sells for fifty yuan a bundle, you have been in the Shangshu Mansion for so many years, and you have been responsible for buying firewood in the firewood house, how many kickbacks do you say you have taken from buying charcoal here over the years?"

「……！！」

The Zhao Shi family didn't expect the eldest lady to come to such a hand, and suddenly they didn't know what to do.

"Zhao Shi's family, originally the eldest lady only wanted to deduct a little monthly money from you, and then closed the matter privately, but now you have to enforce the law impartially in the eldest lady, and in the end it is you who have no face!"

Chun Tao sneered coldly at the old woman in front of her.

These old women beside Mrs. Shangshu, they are already human spirits, Xi Qingyan knows that for these female thieves and slippery human spirits, if Shangshu Mansion really has no oil and water to earn, they will definitely not stay in Shangshu Mansion for so many years.

These people are opportunistic on weekdays, and it is easy for Xi Qingyan to grasp their handles.

"You of the Li Si family don't gloat on the sidelines, you are the slave of our Shangshu Mansion who is responsible for purchasing the dim sum eaten by the master, and the price of the dim sum in your account book has not been matched at all over the years.

」

"I...... The ones I bought were the best dim sum! It's not the same as His Royal Highness who sells at a stall outside, if the eldest lady compares the dim sum from the stall outside with the dim sum I bought, then you have wronged the old slave!"

When Li Sijia saw that Zhao Shi's family was being held accountable, she was still gloating on the sidelines, who knew that it would be her turn next.

She looked at the strange eyes of the slaves around, and was very unhappy in her heart, so she talked to Chun Tao and Xi lightly. Look at the book

"Different? Miss Ben can keep a copy of the dim sum you bought every day, I just need to ask where you bought those dim sums from, do you think those little vendors will help you hide them as a minion, or are they afraid of the power of Shangshufu?"

Xi Qingyan looked at these minions taught by Mrs. Shangshu, all of them were sharp-toothed and arrogant, and today she is a new official, so she will use them to make an example!

"You are here one by one, with a look of grievance and crying to Miss Ben unreasonably, originally, Miss Ben was thinking that I would be a housekeeper on the first day today, don't make things too ugly, but unfortunately some people give shame to you, in this case, I don't have to leave you any more face!"

"Chun Tao, from now on, I will drive Zhao Shi's family, Li Si's family, and my mother's wife and her daughter out of the house! If anyone dares to intercede on their behalf, Miss Ben will be driven out of the house along with the person who pleaded for them!"

Xi Qingyan gave an order, and directly drove away all the four sent by Mrs. Shangshu to find fault, and the other servants looked at the four people who were taken away and cried wolf, and for a while they also knew that this quiet eldest lady on weekdays was actually not easy to mess with at all!

"We're all Madame's people! Miss, how dare you do anything to us?"

"Miss, Madame will make the decision for us and seek justice for us! You steward can't be in this position for long!"

"Don't worry, at least before you get out of Shangshu Mansion, I, the housekeeper, won't be pulled down."

Xi smiled lightly and looked at those Diao slaves who were unwilling to be dragged away.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Ben didn't want to be like this today, you came to my Shangshu Mansion to do things, so that you can feel at ease and be secure, and Miss Ben also wants your loyalty."

"So as long as you don't steal girls and play tricks, your monthly money will not be missing any of you. As for those promises made by us, they are real and valid, and you can see how I do to you in the future."

Hit a mallet and give a sweet date.

Such a means of reward and punishment gave Shangshufu a long-lost peace.

But Shangshu's Mansion is calm, it doesn't mean that Mrs. Shangshu's heart is calm and peaceful!

"What did you just say? Xi Qingyan actually drove all my people out of Shangshu Mansion?"

When Mrs. Shangshu heard the news, she stood up directly.
