Gu Baiyu didn't sleep for a long time, and woke up in less than an hour.

When you wake up. She was the only one in bed.

It's not that she didn't sleep well, it's just that it's too late, and under the rules of Prime Minister Cheng's mansion before, the only bit of self-discipline left in her bones made her body wake up on its own.

Lingyu saw that she was awake and came over with a warm handkerchief to help her clean her face.

Seeing that Gu Baiyu woke up in a daze, Lingyu explained, "Someone in the army came to discuss things with Hou Ye, so Hou Ye left first. ”

After Lingyu finished speaking, she cautiously looked at Gu Baiyu's expression, she was afraid that Gu Baiyu would be sad.

After all, this is the first day after Mu Xiu, looking at Gu Baiyu in the morning, he is obviously reluctant to give up on Hou Ye, and he didn't see Hou Ye when he woke up at this time, for fear that Gu Baiyu would be disappointed.

However, Gu Baiyu was only out of his mind for a while, and then he came back to his strength and washed under Lingyu's service.

Lingyu couldn't help it, and asked Gu Baiyu: "Madam woke up and the Hou Ye was not there, aren't you sad?" ”

Gu Baiyu was stunned for a moment, "Why do you ask like that?" ”

Lingyu spoke out the doubts in her heart.

After listening to this, Gu Baiyu smiled slightly, his eyes full of pride.

"When the Hou Ye returned from the court, he came to put me to sleep, which was his friendship with me; He had the right thing to deal with, so he didn't indulge in gentleness, but simply dealt with things neatly, which was his priority. ”

Gu Baiyu said as he took off a hairpin that was too grand on his head and replaced it with a more concise and atmospheric one.

Then he turned his head and looked at Lingyu with a smile, and the satisfaction and pride in his tone could hardly be concealed.

"Only by doing this can he show that my choice was not wrong. If he is really addicted to gentleness and doesn't even care about business, I will regret that I chose the wrong person. ”

After hearing these words, Lingyu didn't know how to speak for a while, but she could only sigh in her heart, Mrs. and Master Hou are each other's lovers.

A gentle and virtuous husband who knows how to be considerate; A doting wife, but she can clear her family background and business;

Such a husband and wife will definitely be affectionate and loving in the future, and the family will be harmonious......

After Gu Baiyu finished washing, Lingyu told her the news she got today, and the second prince made an appointment with Gu Ruan Ruan to meet.

Gu Baiyu was slightly stunned, thinking that it was probably the second prince who ate turtles in the royal hunting ground that day, and figured out what conspiracy Gu Ruan Ruan was discussing......

Thinking about it again, since Gu Ruan Ruan married into the Hou Mansion, she didn't end up with anything good in her hands;

Now in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Prime Minister Gu and Mrs. Gu are extremely disappointed in this concubine's daughter, and they have turned a blind eye, and Gu Ruanruan's only backer is probably the only one left with this second prince.

The two would meet, which was expected by Gu Baiyu, but Gu Baiyu didn't expect that Gu Ruan Ruan Ruan would be quite calm this time, and he didn't leave the house until the second prince looked for her.

"When did you leave?"

"Not long after Master Hou came back, Aunt Gu left in a small sedan chair."

Gu Baiyu paused, and then asked, "Does the second master know?" ”

Lingyu shook her head, "This slave doesn't know. ”

Although Gu Baiyu asked her to pay attention to Gu Ruanruan's movements, the few servants over there either had followed Xiao Ruoyun for a long time and had a strict mouth, and the other was the licorice that Gu Ruan Ruan had brought over, and she couldn't ask anything, and she was afraid of startling the snake if she asked too much.

Gu Baiyu nodded: "Master Hou also knows about this matter?" ”

"You were sleeping just now, and the slave maid has already reported to the Hou Ye."

"Then let her go. Wait and see what she has to do, and then see you again. ”

Now that she and Xiao Yanlin have the same mind, Gu Ruan Ruan's mind is on Xiao Ruoyun, as long as it does not involve her own safety and Xiao Yanlin, no matter what storm Gu Ruan Ruan makes in the back house, it will not be as big as the boundary of the Hou Mansion.

As long as she is still in the Hou Mansion, she is a housewife, and she can't handle a concubine in the second room?

Gu Baiyu didn't take this matter to heart, but asked the old housekeeper to bring the roster of the Hou Mansion's subordinates.

Before she came, there was no housekeeper in this Hou Mansion, Xiao Yan was busy with government affairs, and Xiao Ruoyun was a man, so it was inevitable that there would be negligence in the management of the back house.

If it weren't for the neglect of discipline of her subordinates, when she was seriously ill in her previous life, those subordinates would not have listened to Gu Ruanruan's few slanderous words, and stepped on her head one by one.

There are a few of them that are especially excessive, and Gu Baiyu still remembers their names in his heart.

can be easily picked up by others in a few words, and be so disrespectful to the second lady, what kind of loyalty can it be?

Before, she just wanted to stay a little more time with Xiao Yanlin, but now that Mu Xiu's time has passed, she should also free up her hands and rectify the atmosphere in the backyard of the Hou Mansion.

Gu Baiyu picked up the pen and wrote out a roster, and then first found the old housekeeper and handed the roster to him.

"How are these subordinates behaving in the mansion?"

The old butler took the roster and looked at it, and his heart was full of chuckles.

He knew all the people listed by Gu Baiyu.

Although he is old, he is not confused.

Some of these people have smooth personalities, some are lazy, and some are not very clean......

There were some small problems before, but what he did was not excessive, and he didn't bother Hou Ye with these things.

Unexpectedly, the lady only came for a few days, and she wrote out the names of these people like a mirror!

The old housekeeper's heart sank, "Madame is discerning, these subordinates are not very well-behaved, but because the Hou Ye was busy with business before, the old slave is really ......"

Gu Baiyu waved his hand, without the intention of blaming.

"It's really hard for the old man to manage the backyard alone, these things shouldn't be taken to upset the Hou Ye, now that I've taken over, then the people who should deal with it will be dealt with."

Just dealing with a few restless subordinates, naturally there is no need for Gu Baiyu to take action personally.

The old butler went with the roster, and after a while, he conveniently called several people over, and gave them an extra month's money, so that they could find another job.

The people whose names were called were all stupid!

Looking back on them these days, since the new lady came, they have been able to keep to themselves, after all, the favor of the Hou Ye is there, and they haven't done anything wrong during this time!

"Old butler, this ...... What's going on? Did we make any mistakes? ”

"Yes, if I have done something bad, you can say that there is no reason for such a reason, and you will send us away, there is no reason for this!"

If it were an ordinary person, they, as subordinates, would naturally not dare to do this.

However, there has been no hostess in the Hou Mansion for too long, and Xiao Yanlin doesn't care about these trivial matters, the old housekeeper is old, kind-tempered, and sometimes very talkative, which fuels their arrogance.

How can they consider that the deed of sale is in the hands of the master's family, and it is already a good way not to resell them to others!

Now, they have to make inches, and they can even ask the reason, and they look like they will not give up without giving a reason.

The old housekeeper explained a few words to them, not wanting to say that this was what Madame meant, for fear that the rest of the subordinates would resist Gu Baiyu in their hearts.

But I don't want these people, but I seem to have caught something wrong and missed, and I ask hard!

Just when the old housekeeper was annoyed, thinking that this good man couldn't do it today, so he simply called someone Yazi to come and expel them from the mansion with the deed of sale, Gu Baiyu came with Lingyu.

"Don't embarrass the old man, let you go, that's what I mean."
