Old Madam Qiao was a little entangled, the heirs of the Hou Mansion were a big deal, and the housekeeper was also a big deal.

Such a big Hou Mansion An Qien is well managed.

Although her daughter-in-law, Liu, is also a girl from a large family, she is not good at housekeeping at all.

Before An Qien married into the Hou Mansion, the Liu family managed the Hou Mansion for a period of time and managed the Hou Mansion in a mess.

Old Madam Qiao was so angry that she had to take the housekeeping back and take care of it herself.

The Hou Mansion's family background has not been as good as before in the past few years, and Mrs. Qiao doesn't want to take on this hot errand.

After thinking about it, Mrs. Qiao said: "Your health is a big deal, so let's do it, I'll find you two more capable stewards, and you won't be so tired." ”

An Qien's expression was faint, and the old lady obviously didn't want her to let go.

"Listen to the grandmother's arrangement, the grandmother and granddaughter-in-law have one more words, you must know a thing or two about the accounts in the house, and the concubine's dowry has also cost a lot to see the prince over the years, so I am afraid that the future days will not be so rich."

Old Madam Qiao is a smart person, and An Qien's words are to the point.

She pinched the Buddhist beads in her hand and expressed her attitude: "Since this family is in charge of you, you decide what life to live, Jiang Hong, then I will let him pay attention to proportion." ”

An Qien didn't say anything more, and smiled faintly, the housekeeper couldn't shirk this matter at the moment.

As soon as she left with her front foot, Mother Wu said to Mrs. Qiao on her back foot: "Young lady, this vinegar is not small, the prince has added clothes and jewelry to Shuli on the front foot, which tells you that you don't care about home." ”

Mrs. Qiao was a person who came over, and she opened the tea leaves with the tea lid and drank her saliva, looking not surprised.

"Qien, this kid is good, but he is not generous enough, and his stomach is not angry, who is to blame."

Mother Wu continued: "That Shen Shuli was beaten today, and it can be regarded as going to the fire in the young lady's heart, she was a maid who was jealous and beat the world, this is going to be spread, and the face of the Hou Mansion is lost." ”

When Mrs. Qiao heard the name Shen Shuli, she was angry.

"You go and squeak with Jiang Hong, you are not allowed to look at that cheap hoof during this time, and you are also told that you are not allowed to spend silver on that cheap hoof without permission, and you are not allowed to use jewelry."

"This matter, sealed for me, must not be spread outside, that cheap hoof is estimated to have to lie in bed for ten days and half a month, during this time, if Qien has a brain, her belly will bulge sooner or later."

There is no need for Old Madam Qiao to order this, Mother Wu has already asked the Hou Mansion to be sealed, and the subordinates are not allowed to spread the matter outside.

The subordinates of the Hou Mansion are all well-behaved, and no one dares to risk their lives to spread the word.

Shen Shuli was lying on the bed and screaming in pain, and her clothes were stained on her skin and were bloody.

Qiao Jianghong was distressed and at a loss, Lang Zhong had just prescribed a little medicine, and before Shen Shuli could take it, Wu's mother called Qiao Jianghong and Lang Zhong away.

I never came back.

Shen Shuli is a maid, without Qiao Jianghong's care, she will be left to fend for herself in this Hou Mansion.

She cried for a few days, and Wu's mother was upset when she heard it, so she came in and kindly reminded her.

"Miss Shuli, don't shout at the end of your voice, the old lady is benevolent, if you change to another big family, your life will be gone a long time ago."

Shen Shuli can only lie on the bed now, the whole person is haggard and unfocused, and her hair is also messy.

She reached out and grabbed Mother Wu as if grasping the last straw: "Mother Wu, the slave knows that it is wrong, please help me bring a message to the son, so that the son can come to see me, okay?" ”

"Miss Shen wants to let the prince bear the reputation of unfilial piety? I advise you to settle down, and only after your body is well can you serve the son well. ”

Mother Wu left with a cold face.

Since then, no one has come to see Shen Shuli.

But Qiao Jianghong couldn't rest assured that Shen Shuli was relieved, and asked people to send food, drink and medicine to Shen Shuli behind his back.

also sent a sentence, the original intention has not changed.

After Shen Shuli knew that Qiao Jianghong had not changed, she recuperated with peace of mind.

....

An Qien was studying medicinal food when he had nothing to do, otherwise he was reading in the study.

Qingbi came in with a sulky stomach: "Young lady, the old lady has asked someone to bring you soup again." ”

An Qien's eyes were still on the compendium of materia medica in her hand, and she calmly ordered: "Find a place to pour it." ”

Qingbi was anxious: "This time it was sent by Mother Wu personally, waiting for you in the main hall, it seems that I want to see you drink it with my own eyes." ”

An Qien lifted his eyelids and glanced at Qingbi, who was in a hurry, so the emperor was really not in a hurry, and he was in a hurry to die of the eunuch.

She put down her hand and got up to go out: "The decoction is also a tonic soup, so it doesn't hurt to drink it." ”

Bai Lu said worriedly: "Young lady, Qingbi is afraid that there are unclean things in this decoction, and besides, why don't you have a stomach that moves, the prince of the world is clear, but what about him, his mind is all on Shen Shuli, and Aunt Qingcui is pregnant and has not seen the prince care about it a few times." ”

Bai Lu, and Qingbi couldn't stand it for a long time, so they didn't say it.

An Qien gently knocked the heads of the two maids with a fan, and said dotingly: "You two, calm down and go to drink soup." ”

The two maids were stunned, if they had changed to another housewife, they would have been mad.

The master of their family is good, and he is leisurely all day long.

An Qien came to the main hall, and Wu's mother stood in the middle with herbal soup.

After saluting An Qien, she said, "Young lady, this is the body-nourishing decoction that the old lady got from the grandmother in the palace, and I heard that the effect is good." ”

Mother Wu specially emphasized that this thing was not easy to come by.

An Qien took the decoction and smelled it, which contained medicinal materials such as atractylodes, red peony, rehman, safflower, and salvia.

She didn't say a word, and she was bored.

After drinking, he was very satisfied and said: "I am tired of Mother Wu to thank my grandmother on my behalf, this decoction is very good, and I ask Mother Wu to take more trouble and send it every day." ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Wu's mother's eyes, and the maid who delivered the decoction said that every time the young lady didn't drink it, she either poured it or gave it to the cat.

This? Could it be that the young lady wants to open it?

Qingbi and Bai Lu were also shocked and didn't know what their master's calculations were.

Wu's mother laughed dryly twice, and left without agreeing to deliver medicine every day.

Bai Lu wondered and asked, "Young lady, you don't like to drink, why do you still want Mother Wu to send it every day?" ”

An Qien explained: "This decoction is very rare, you can't buy it outside, my grandmother should have spent a lot of money to get it, this medicine has a thousand golden herbs in it, only in the palace has this thing, no matter how great the Hou Mansion is, I can't afford to drink this herb every day." ”

Bai Lu suddenly realized: "So, Mother Wu didn't answer, no wonder, it's okay now!" ”

Qingbi also breathed a sigh of relief, and the three servants looked at each other and smiled.

When Mrs. Qiao learned that An Qien asked to drink this decoction every day, she suddenly darkened her face and muttered: "She will be happy, this medicine is so difficult, give her to drink it every day?" It's not a big dream! ”

As soon as An Qien wanted to go to the yard to feed the goldfish, Qingcui came in with a handkerchief and wiped her tears.

"Young lady, the concubine really didn't know what to do, so she came to you."

"Sit down and talk slowly, Qingbi will serve Aunt Qingcui a bowl of mung bean tea."

Qingbi pointed out, and after a while, he brought a bowl of mung bean tea.

Qingcui took a sip of mung bean tea to cool off the heat, and then calmed down before saying, "The prince said, let the concubine go to the countryside to raise a baby." ”
