Before the tenth morning of the first month, Shi Mama and Lan Xiang waited for Zheng Yu to wait in Jiqing Hall. Jintong has specially explained that he must let Zheng Yu come over and learn how to take care of the feed.

At the right time, Jintong arrived on time with two grandmothers and four maids. Jin Tong didn't even look at Zheng Zheng, and sat directly in the main seat to arrange work.

The principals of the Hou Mansion are in order of position, and Wu An is naturally the first: "Mrs. Bing, Mr. Jiang, the emperor's sixteenth birthday, what gift should I give?" ”

"First of all, tell Mrs. Jiang how he spends his birthday every year, and tell Mrs. Ben!"

"Yes! Mr. Jiang is closed every year on his birthday, and everyone in Beijing puts the birthday gift in the concierge, and Mr. Jiang does not accept any valuables, only some ordinary calligraphy and paintings, and his own mille-feuille shoes and clothes. ”

Jintong: "What are Mr. Jiang's habits?" What did the Seventh Master give last year? ”

"Mrs. Hui, Mr. Jiang's only habit is wine tasting. Early in the morning on his birthday last year, the seventh master personally went to Qixia Mountain to hunt and beat a wild wolf, and he personally carried the wild wolf to Mr. Jiang, saying that the wolf skin was the warmest, and he peeled the wolf skin tube just for Mr. Jiang to make two long knee pads for winter. ”

Jintong is out of temper! What kind of strange husband is this, she couldn't help but sigh: "What did the wild wolf do?" Why shoot it! ”

Wu An couldn't react a little: "Mrs. Hui, the wild wolf roamed around in Qixia Mountain and ate a lot of farm-raised livestock. ”

Jintong didn't want to pay attention to him, hum, she didn't have a common language with the ancient old man! She instructed Su Bai: "Su Bai, write it down, remind me to remember Mr. Beijiang's birthday gift." Su Bai nodded.

Mama Chu in the sewing room made a report: "Madam, in early May last year, the maids in the house changed their summer clothes, but this year, the seventh master is not there, and Madame has been sick for a long time, and it has not been arranged so far." ”

"How was it arranged in previous years?"

"Mrs. Hui, in previous years, they were all decent mothers and mothers, and each of them had six sets of solemnly colored flower silk clothes. The maids around the masters have three-color clothes, peach pink, tender green, and goose yellow are worn in turn, and there are six sets of first and second class, and four sets of third class. The little maid is one person with four sets of linen clothes. ”

"Zheng Fang, what do you think?"

When Zheng Yu heard this, he was very dissatisfied: "Mama Chu, is it okay to work in the embroidery room all day?" It's the tenth year of the new year now, and all the summer clothes haven't been made? ”

Jin Tong snorted and sneered: "Mama Chu, tell the eldest lady how many things you sent to Yaxinxuan in May." ”

"Yes!" Mama Chu first saluted Jintong respectfully, and then told Zheng Yu: "Miss, from May to today, the embroidery room has replaced a total of 214 embroidery items from Yaxinxuan's bedding, sheets, pillows, bed curtains, curtains, chair cushions, backrests, etc., all of which are bright and light in color, which may be too scattered, and the eldest lady probably hasn't noticed. ”

Zheng Yu's face was flushed, she didn't know that it was all made by the embroidery room. But she couldn't afford to lose this face, so she forced her words: "Since your embroidery room has time to embroider these things, why don't you embroider summer clothes well?" ”

Mama Chu was stunned: "Miss, the big maids and grandmothers with heads and faces, the clothes they use will be more expensive, and they must be presented to the lady before they can go to the treasury to collect them, and the old slave does not dare to make his own decisions." As for the clothes of the second- and third-class maids and the small maids, they have all been cut, but the big maid and the housekeeper have not changed their new clothes, and the people below naturally can't change them first, this is the rule. ”

Zheng Yu was embarrassed, Mama Shi hurriedly pulled her, and asked her not to speak again, shame!

Jintong pretended not to hear what Zheng Yu said, and ordered: "Mama Chu, according to the example of previous years, you should measure the size and tailor the people in the mansion in the past two days." He turned around and instructed Mama Cai: "Mama, from my private treasury, take four horses of Yusi Tianqing brocade and four horses of Caihalo brocade, and anyone who has to go to Jiqing Hall to reply, Mrs. Ben will reward you with two sets of good clothes." ”

Jiqingtang was suddenly beaming with joy, and everyone thanked them one after another.

Next, in the dining room, the flowers and trees were scattered and reported more than a dozen things, and Jintong was methodical and dealt with them one by one.

Zheng Yu was dazzled beside her, she never knew that there were so many things in the mansion in one day!

Jintong handled everything and went back to educate her: "Our Pingning Hou Mansion is still relatively simple in Shangjing, but there are more than 200 people up and down the house. If you marry into such a family, will you be able to hold it up? ”

Zheng Zhen didn't dare to speak.

"Why did I let you go to school? The girl's family reads books, so she knows what it is to be a woman, and she knows the way of sages! You are now nine years old, and you have reached the age of saying goodbye, not to mention marrying a royal nobleman in the future, you are also a wealthy family of scholars. If you don't know how to read and count, how can you run the house, educate your children, and assist your husband? ”

Zheng Yu was speechless, and went to study obediently on the 12th.

——————

As soon as Shen Miaolian arrived at the family temple, the abbot Jing'an Shitai personally took more than a dozen scriptures and told her to copy them 108 times first, and then send them to the Buddha to be burned, praying for the victory of the Pingning Hou Qi and the triumph unscathed!

Jokes, she sneered contemptuously in her heart! He only told Xiaozhu and them to put the scriptures on the table, and then the master and servant discussed the countermeasures and planned the next way.

The next day, Mama Jin went out to inquire about the news with dozens of small silver tickets and a few silver ingots of five taels.

Ever since she knew that the Holy Lord had assigned Jintong, the marquis of Jingbei, to the Seventh Master, she was in a hurry.

I think that when the power of the court was still in the hands of the regent, the holy lord was forced by the regent, and had no choice but to drive the expedition in person to quell the war in the southwest. Lao Jingbeihou and his three sons were killed and seriously injured in order to protect him safely. Therefore, the holy lord has always taken care of Jintong, and he was named the county lord, and later saw the decline of Jingbei, so he gave Jintong a marriage to the seventh master. How does she fight with her?

She has been working hard in the mansion for nearly ten years, and she has taken precautions before Jintong enters the door, embezzled more silver, and bribed more people for her use, just to concentrate more forces against Jintong.

After Jintong entered, she was in a hurry!

She didn't expect Jintong's appearance to be so outstanding!

Young and beautiful, with a noble status, and a royal marriage, it is a matter of time before a son-in-law is born! So when she first married in Jintong, she secretly provoked repeatedly.

In fact, she succeeded! It's only been three days, and Zheng Qiyan is becoming more and more dissatisfied with the arrogant and willful Jintong!

She also does her hands and feet in the water she drinks every day, the seventh master is a man, the physique of the martial arts is strong, and he is annoyed by Jintong, and he usually rarely eats in Yanbo Haomiaoxuan, which has no effect. Jintong is different, but there are diarrhea symptoms in three to five days.

Later, the Seventh Master went to fight in southern Xinjiang, and she asked Li Manniu, who had an affair with Sakura, to do tricks and feet in the corridor of the Huxin Pavilion and design Jintong to fall into the water! If a woman's body is cold, it will be difficult to get pregnant! Only when Jintong has no children and an unstable status, can she find a way to keep the heart of the seventh master and give birth to children for him in person!

Coming to the temple to copy scriptures and pray for blessings is just a show, she told herself. Wondering what to do next?

In the end, it was until Mama Jin was escorted back by a few sturdy nuns.

Master Jing'an asked Shen Miaolian with a face like the bottom of a pot: "Amitabha! Aunt Shen, what's the matter with your grandmother? Actually wandering around in a sacred place like a family temple and asking around, what kind of system has it become? ”

Shen Miaolian was taken aback, and hurriedly explained: "Master Jing'an must have misunderstood!" When the concubine first arrived at the family temple, she was not familiar with the place, so she asked Mama Jin to find out, for fear of accidentally colliding with something! ”

"Amitabha, didn't Aunt Shen come to copy the scriptures and pray for Mrs. Tai? How do you understand the situation of the family temple? Could it be that Aunt Shen has seen through the red dust and wants to become a nun? "Master Jing'an is very poisonous.

"Since you old nun know that our aunt is here to copy the scriptures and pray for Mrs. Tai! How dare you be so rude! If it's Mrs. Tai, you dare to be so disrespectful?! Xiao Zhu, as Shen Miaolian's personal maid, had ever suffered such anger, and immediately went back.

"Mrs. Tai also came, copied 20 scriptures every day, respectfully worshiped in front of the Buddha, and the rest of the time was devoted to chanting and praying! Dare to ask Aunt Shen, how many scriptures have been copied, can you use them to give the poor nuns a look? Jing An looked at Shen Miaolian with a smile.

Shen Miaolian naturally couldn't take it out, she stepped forward and pulled Jing'an, and secretly stuffed a silver ticket to her: "Shitai is accommodating, let go of Mama Jin first, and the rest is easy to say!" ”

Jing'an shook off Shen Miaolian's hand: "Aunt Shen is self-respecting!" Mama Jin violated the law of the family temple and played ten boards. Your maid is disrespectful to the poor nun, and the poor nun doesn't care for the time being. However, Aunt Shen ignored the family temple and copied the scriptures insincerely, so she was not worthy of living in this wing room dedicated to Mrs. Tai! Hui Ke Huiyan, move Aunt Shen to the back of the side hall, and wait for Aunt Shen to sincerely copy the scriptures and pray for the Seventh Master! After saying that, he shook his sleeves and left.

Shen Miaolian was stunned, this monk is really pure, and he regards money as dung!

She didn't know that Wu An personally came to explain again, and Mrs. Zhen sent her henchmen to explain again, with a two-pronged approach, how could Jing'an dare not pay attention to it? !

So before they came, Jing'an had already ordered that anyone who dared to have a private relationship with Shen Miaolian's master and servant would bear the consequences!

Several sturdy nuns had already pressed Mama Jin to the ground for execution, and Shen Miaolian panicked and a few maids went over to protect her. In the middle of the tugging, the nuns unceremoniously slapped a few of them on the board.

"Don't think that you are here to copy the scriptures for Mrs. Tai, you can do whatever you want! Mrs. Tai has explained, if you honestly copy the scriptures, you will treat each other with courtesy! If you have any dirty thoughts, how to punish the family temple rules! A nun mercilessly put Shen Miaolian down and scolded loudly.

"Huixin, don't make loud noises in the family temple!" Master Jing'an's voice came clearly from outside.

"Yes!" Huixin replied, shut up and concentrate on beating people.

A few maids hurriedly helped Shen Miaolian up, and the master and servant had nothing to do, so they watched Mama Jin being beaten ten boards, and then was urged by a group of nuns to pack up her things, and pushed and rushed to the dilapidated courtyard behind the side hall.

Mama Jin held on: "Auntie, it's all because the old slave is not doing things well and has affected you." Xiaozhu, a few of you will clean up here first. "The family temples are all women, and although Mama Jin said that she suffered ten plates, she was injured by her flesh and skin, and she did not hurt her muscles and bones.

Shen Miaolian wiped her tears: "Mama, don't blame you!" It's me who underestimated Jintong's slut! ”

"Auntie, these nuns in the family temple are all soft and hard, and they must have to give some explanation before they dare to do this to us. Let's give in first, and then plan slowly, and the hero will not suffer the immediate loss! About the next month's family temple sacrifice, Mrs. Tai will definitely come, and we will do it again when the time comes! Miao Lian only felt confused, dazed and at a loss, and only nodded slowly with tears.

When it was time to eat, Hui Yan came to get the scriptures copied by Shen Miaolian.

Shen Miaolian politely saluted her: "This master, can you wait for me to copy it tomorrow and send it over in person?" ”

Hui Yan clasped his palms in return: "Amitabha, naturally, Xiao Ni will not bother Aunt Shen to copy the scriptures!" ”

Then, the six masters and servants waited until the stars in the sky were gone, and they wanted to go out to inquire, but the door was blocked. I remembered that a little nun told them before: "The family temple stipulates that everyone in the temple goes to the main hall to chant sutras in the morning. During the unitary time, everyone in the temple must have their own evening classes and should not move around. ”

What don't the six masters and servants understand at this time? Poor Baba carried tens of thousands of taels of silver tickets, and couldn't buy a grain of rice, so he had no choice but to stay up late and copy twenty scriptures on an empty stomach with a dim and smelly oil lamp.

The next day, Shen Miaolian, whose eyes were red and dizzy, and Xiaozhu, who also had a bleak appearance, came to Jing'an Shitai with the help of the hazy morning star, and respectfully presented the scriptures.

"Amitabha, my aunt is sincere, I'm tired!"

Shen Miaolian hurriedly returned the salute and begged in a low voice: "Mrs. Jing'an, Mama Jin is old and has been scolded by the cane, and I also ask Mrs. Jin to be merciful and reward some Jinchuang medicine!" ”

"Nature, Nature!" Master Jing'an looked compassionate: "Amitabha, Aunt Shen doesn't need to have a morning class today!" Huiyan Huixin, you accompany Aunt Shen to take a look, and if there is anything missing, make up for it quickly. Hui Neng, go get some gold sore medicine and give it to Aunt Shen. ”

The so-called patching is just pasting the dilapidated window sill. Shen Miaolian's six masters and servants lived in a desolate old house like this.
