"Mother, take a look."

Gu Changheng was excited, he had already thought in his heart that he would control all the shop industries of the Hou Mansion, and when the time came, he would not have to be subject to Zhao Mingruo, and he would be able to take the Hou Mansion to the Hou Mansion as a flat wife in the open.

Seeing that the old lady ignored herself, he urged again.

The old lady gave him a blank look, this is her own son, and the third child is not angry, otherwise she will be angry.

"You are about to participate in the imperial examination, don't delay your studies for this little thing, when the time comes, the gains outweigh the losses, the big house is famous, and now you have entered the Hanlin Academy."

It's a pity that Gu Changheng can still listen to it, "Mother, you don't have to worry about it, Master Yin said, I am naturally smart, it is not easy to surpass my eldest brother, and I will inherit my father's title in the future and make great achievements in the court!" ”

The mother and son were talking with each other, and Zhao Mingruo came over with Ah Fu.

"Mother, how is your health?" Zhao Mingruo asked with concern.

The old lady turned around silently, not wanting to pay attention to the two couples.

Gu Changheng was in a good mood, "Ah Ruo, you don't have to worry, my mother's illness has already healed, but it's you, why didn't you have a good rest in the room?" ”

Zhao Mingruo was moved, "Don't worry, husband, I used medicine, my body is better, I came to find my mother today is a major matter related to the Hou Mansion, and my daughter-in-law doesn't dare to make decisions privately, so I can only come to ask my mother and husband what they mean." ”

After speaking, the evidence of Steward Chen's greed for ink was handed to the two of them.

The old lady also followed to check.

"What!!"

"This damn housekeeper Chen, I knew that he was not greedy enough, and he relied on his relationship with his mother to make a lot of benefits in the Hou Mansion, but I didn't expect him to be so shameless?"

Gu Changheng suddenly became angry, he didn't have 20,000 taels, if he had, the money to buy land for Wanwan was enough!!

"Mother, this is the person you are looking for, you can't let him stay in the Hou Mansion any longer!!"

The old lady was also surprised, she knew that her relatives' hands and feet were not clean and could not be seen, but she did not expect it to be so excessive and the amount was so much.

"This ...... Heng'er, it's indeed his fault that he is greedy, he is also a relative, he can't really drive people out, and when the time comes, he will definitely say that our Hou Mansion will turn his face and deny people. ”

"You should give me this face."

Gu Changheng fell into hesitation, driving away would indeed affect his mother's reputation.

Zhao Mingruo added a fire, "The country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, husband, if Steward Chen is a little more restrained, we will not have to stare at him, but this amount is too big, the Hou Mansion is not rich now, I am afraid that I can't afford to raise such a housekeeper." ”

"Even if it's a person like Hou Fufu, we don't want it!" Gu Changheng threw the account book in front of the old lady in an angry manner, "Beat him out now!" ”

Zhao Mingruo took the opportunity to give the steps, "That'...... Who will take over Steward Chen's place? ”

Gu Changheng frowned, "Just let his original deputy be on top, the one named Peng Nian, I think he's good." ”

After achieving the goal, Zhao Mingruo nodded and said, "Okay, then according to what the husband said, let Peng Nian go on top." ”

"Husband, don't be angry, Steward Chen is always a relative of his mother, it's not good to beat out, just find a chance to talk to him."

——

On a spring afternoon, the sun is warm, with a gentle wind, gently blowing the branches that have turned green.

Peng Nian rushed to Yunyao Courtyard to report the good news to Zhao Mingruo.

"Second lady, the villain has been officially appointed by the second master as the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, if there is anything to do in the future, please do not hesitate."

Zhao Mingruo handed him the list that had been prepared in advance, "I have arranged all the candidates for important places, and you can decide the rest of the time." ”

Although Steward Chen is greedy, after all, he is a distant relative of the old lady, and he is still very loyal in the Hou Mansion, and he can go to tell him in time if there is any trouble, but now that he is gone, the position of the housekeeper has changed to Peng Nian, which is very different.

Peng Nian put the list away, "The villain understands, go and arrange it immediately." ”

Seeing Shen Qingshan away, Yao Hua also happened to come over to Zhao Mingruo to say goodbye at the agreed time.

"Second lady, the concubine has been in accordance with your instructions, and successfully drunk the second master in the room last night, he got up early in the morning and mistakenly thought that I and he had a round room, and he didn't reprimand me too much, but symbolically told me to be honest and obedient, so that there would be a place for me in the house."

Yao Hua explained the situation last night, and Zhao Mingruo couldn't help but sneer, "Most of him doesn't know where to hide and laugh secretly, his eyes are straight when you serve tea." ”

Gu Changheng really didn't disappoint her, what did he say to Yun Suiwan was sincere, but it was the same, seeing that the beauty couldn't walk.

She was a little looking forward to arguing with Gu Changheng all day long because of her aunt's affairs after Yun Nian entered the mansion, and Gu Changheng went from the thoughtful and gentle explanation at the beginning to the impatient scene at the end.

is even more looking forward to the two meeting strangers, and even fighting.

"Gu Changheng eats soft or hard, you just have to pretend to be pitiful and weak to win his sympathy, dress up better, he can't resist such a temptation, just grab him and go to your room a few more times."

Zhao Mingruo instructed again.

"In addition, don't relax Shui Xiu, now Yao Hua is in the light, you are in the dark, and you have the fate of meeting in the inn before, Yun Nianwan will definitely find you, and if she has any plans at that time, we can easily deal with it."

"Don't be afraid of revealing the stuff, I'm very secretive about your identity, and she can't find any clues."

Ah Fu took two heavy bags of silver and divided them among the two of them.

Zhao Mingruo raised his eyebrows, "Pay the deposit first." ”

Yao Hua and Shui Xiu smiled, "Thank you, Second Lady." ”

The afternoon sun was just right, and Zhao Mingruo rarely appeared in time, taking Yao Hua to familiarize himself with the situation of the Hou Mansion.

Shui Xiu followed behind and looked curiously at the place where he would live in the future, and suddenly found that a shadow appeared behind him.

It just so happened that the man was also watching her, and greeted her warmly.

Shui Xiu casually said a few words to Yao Hua and trotted towards the man, "This lady, it's your ......"

She recognized Yun Suiwan at a glance when she saw her at the inn.

Yun Suiwan smiled gently, "Yes, it's me, you still remember me." ”

"I didn't expect that Miss Yao you said before was going to marry into the Hou Mansion to be my cousin's aunt, it seems that we are really fated."

Shui Xiu clearly knew the truth a long time ago, but he still had to cooperate with Yun Suiwan's performance with a smile, pretending to be surprised, "It turned out to be Mrs. Your cousin, it really has fate." ”

"No, if I had known that your young lady was going to marry my cousin as an aunt, then we would have known each other well."
