Chapter XXIV: The Visitation
Xiahou Shuang instructed Yueyun to secretly check the kitchen and buy the relationship between these people in the mansion.
Needless to say, Xiahou Shuang's maids are loyal. But Chunya is too straightforward and can't hide things in her heart. Green Lake is a good hand at doing things, but his temperament is too taciturn.
Qiaoyu is the youngest and a little less alert. Chun Cicada's girl only has her own young lady in her eyes on weekdays, and she is used to being reckless, so it's okay to let her rush forward to fight and kill, and she can't hand over the matter of finding out the news.
Yueyun is delicate, thoughtful and steady. Although she has not been by Xiahou Shuang's side for a long time, she has won Xiahou Shuang's trust after getting along, and it is safe to leave this matter to her. Then he instructed the little maids to invite Wang Chong.
When Wang Chong heard the call, he followed the little maid and came directly to obey the order. After arriving at Biluxuan, Wang Chong found that Xiahou Shuang had not set up a screen, so he sat directly in the house and waited.
After a hurried glance, Wang Chong found that he had not seen him for a few days, and the eldest lady was more dusty than the last time in the temple, bright and moving, and the momentum was more majestic.
Wang Chong arched his hand: "I don't know the eldest lady, what are the instructions for sending someone to summon the villain today?"
"The king's guards don't need to be polite, there is something to ask you to come here today. Xiahou Shuang motioned for Wang Chong to sit down.
Chunya quickly moved a stool, and after Wang Chong sat down, Xiahou Shuang continued unhurriedly: "The maids around me are inconvenient to go out, and I want to ask Wang Guard to help me find out the details of these people outside the mansion." ”
Wang Chong took a piece of paper handed over by Chunya, and the names of the four people were written on the paper.
Although there are not many masters in the house, there are only a dozen in total, but there are 100 maids and wives everywhere, and the chief of the outer courtyard and the small servants.
The daily meal is a big event, the kitchen is equipped with a hot and cold pastry chef, and the rest of the side dishes are scattered with nearly ten people, and the daily expenses are even more amazing.
Since the old lady, there has been a rule, and four people are responsible for purchasing, and they are responsible for the purchase of rice, flour, meat, and various vegetables and fruits. The two groups are exchanged every half month to avoid enriching themselves.
The Lin family has always adhered to the rules set by the old lady, and it is impossible to change them in just a few days after Xiahou Shuang took over. After the clever words returned, Xiahou Shuang checked the rumors that the few days happened to be in the middle of the month, coinciding with the alternation of the two shifts, and I don't know who did it for the time being, so I can only start from the internal and external relations of the four purchases.
After receiving the order, Wang Chong did not ask much, but said that the meeting would be held in as little as three days and as much as five days, and he would come to restore his life after finding out, and then said goodbye and left.
Wang Chong didn't say a word about the reason for the investigation, didn't ask what he shouldn't ask, didn't say what he shouldn't say, and only did the errand he explained.
Xiahou Shuang couldn't help but secretly praise in her heart, this person is trustworthy and entrusted. With the idea of letting him run an errand by his side, he will definitely ask if he meets again next time.
After lunch, Xiahou Shuang brought all the maids to visit the spring cicadas. Because of the perennial practice of martial arts, the spring cicada is much better than others, and it has only been a few days of kung fu to be able to go to the ground.
When Xiahou Shuang arrived in the house, the spring cicada was helped by a little maid to get out of bed and move in the house, and when she saw Xiahou Shuang coming, the spring cicada opened her mouth and smiled: "Miss." ”
Seeing this, Xiahou Shuang reprimanded: "If you don't have a good idea, you will start to get out of bed and move around, be careful that the wound will open." ”
"I'm so neat, don't believe me, Miss, look at ......" After Chun Chan finished speaking, he gave Xiahou Shuang a demonstration of raising her arms and legs, which made Xiahou Shuang laugh.
"Okay, Miss knows what you can do, stop quickly, don't let us leave in a while, you have to trouble Dr. Lin because of the pain here and there. Chunya hurriedly stepped forward to stop this living treasure from continuing to perform, and walked to the bedside with help.
Chun Cicada muttered, but she couldn't stand Miss and Chunya, so she had to resign herself to her fate and lie down again.
"Spring Cicada, you have to get better quickly, there are more and more things around me, and I feel that there are not enough people. Xiahou Shuang said earnestly.
"Miss, I heard that Green Lake said that you have begun to take over the chores, you must be very majestic, but it's a pity that the slave maid didn't see it here. Spring Cicada said with regret.
Xiahou Shuang......
"Of course it's majestic, you didn't see the scene at that time, and the young lady only nodded when the people in charge of things spoke. Chunya opened the conversation and began to gush.
Chun Cicada's eyes lit up when he heard it: "Really?
Chunya glanced at Xiahou Shuang, and saw that Xiahou Shuang had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she didn't feel the slightest displeasure, so she became bold.
Moved a stool to sit down, imitating Xiahou Shuang's confident posture, coughed dryly and said: "I know that most of your stewards are old people in the house, and it is reassuring to do things solidly." I am entrusted by my grandmother to be in charge of the affairs of the palace, and there will be many things that I don't understand, so I have to ask you, but don't be deceived because I am young, if you find out that you have done this, you will be taken away from your position at the least, and you will be expelled from the Hou Mansion at the worst!"
"All affairs are in accordance with the past practice, and all the stewards please come forward one by one and talk about the matters they are responsible for in their daily lives. "Spring buds are sharp and vivid.
Everyone held their breath and listened quietly from the beginning of her, and after listening, Chun Chan couldn't help but applaud: "Miss is amazing!" and praised: "Sister Chunya's learning is really good!"
Yueyun stood beside Xiahou Shuang and kept silent, she followed the old lady to abide by etiquette, she had never laughed and played around the old lady and done anything out of the ordinary, let alone joked with her master so presumptuously.
Originally, seeing Chunya's actions to be stopped, she glanced at the eldest lady after stepping out of her feet, and the eldest lady did have a face of encouragement and agreed with Chunya's meaning, so she had to retract her feet in a sneer.
After Chunya finished speaking, the atmosphere in the house was much more lively, and the spring cicada was even more happy, and Yueyun understood what Xiahou Shuang meant.
Chun Cicada was injured that day, although Yueyun didn't know the inside story, but she knew in her heart that the eldest lady was heartbroken and the third lady had nowhere to vent her anger, so she had to send this anger to the eldest lady who had no one to protect her.
I didn't dare to attack the eldest lady openly, so I had to hit the girl next to me, and I coincidentally captured the daredevil, Chun Cicada, who was harmed by family law, lost half of her life.
I heard Mama Chen say that the eldest lady apologized for the wife of the spring cicada that day, and the old lady even seized the right to feed, although this incident hurt the muscles and bones for the lady, but it could not make up for the pain of the spring cicada.
The maid who signed the death deed is worthless, and the master beats to death and sells it everywhere, and the third lady disposed of her personal maid on the day she was injured, and I heard that the old lady just asked her to send some silver taels to her family.
After getting along with the eldest lady in the past few days, although I haven't seen anything on my lips, I often explain my clever words to make some snacks to send to the spring cicada, and today I came to visit in person. I heard that people who are sick will be happy and get better, and the spring buds will amuse the spring cicadas like living treasures, which should also mean the same.
