Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 20
Seeing that Huichun was unmoved, Mother Tian's face darkened, Fang wanted to reprimand, but Li Taiwei interrupted the conversation.

"Golden mother is getting older, and my mother may not be able to take care of her properly. Nianxia is too young to handle things. After thinking about it, only Tian's mother is the most suitable person in charge of my mother's house. Tian's mother will sooner or later If I want to take over Jin Nanny's errand, then I will lack a competent person in charge in this house."

"Shuqiu and Liandong are both in Xiliang right now, and the date of return is undecided. You are the only reliable person in front of me, and I was thinking of asking Mama Tian to hand over the key to my warehouse to you in the past few days. Since you are so evasive... ...Then forget it, let me think about who else is more suitable..."

As soon as Li Taiwei finished speaking, Huichun fell to his knees with a plop.

Echun was full of joy, kowtowed respectfully to Li Taiwei, blushed and said:
"I never imagined that the servant could be so highly regarded by the princess. I thank the princess for his appreciation. It's just a matter of great importance. Can the princess allow the slave to think about it?"

Mrs. Li frowned slightly, and her heart was slightly agitated.

"It's okay, you take care of me in my room first, and it won't be too late to tell me in a few days."

Huichun kowtowed several times excitedly.

Li Taiwei nodded in satisfaction, and turned to face Ueda's mother's astonished gaze. She waved her round fan and returned a meaningful smile to Tian's mother.

When Huichun left the yard, her heart was still beating!
She clutched her handkerchief and stomped back and forth in the corridor, finally covering her mouth and laughing happily.

She originally thought that the princess had sent her away on purpose these few days, because she was suspicious of her!Who would have thought that there was such a thought of flattering her!
That's the first-class maid in charge of Princess Chonghua's house!Even Nian Xia, Jin Nanny's niece, would give her a heads up!
Huichun's heart was sweet and happy for a moment, his hands trembled a little, he rubbed back and forth.

After finally calming down, he remembered the order from Banyueju in the next noon, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

She tightened the handkerchief tightly, a bit of embarrassment flashed in her eyes, she stood on the porch and thought for a while, and then she raised her feet to go to Banyueju.

Li Taiwei was leaning on the imperial concubine's couch peeling grapes, seeing Dafu coming in, she put down the silver tray, sat up straight, and asked:

"How? Did she really go to Banyue Residence?"

Dafu nodded, frowned and said:

"I watched her go in with my own eyes, and the princess thought... sister Huichun is not a good person?"

Mrs. Li pursed her lips slightly, with a dignified look on her face.

Promising Huichun such a favor, she didn't dare to accept it face to face, so she turned around and went to Banyueju... probably to discuss with Xue Shi.

It is almost certain that Huichun will betray the lord, but she can't touch her right now...

Li Taiwei hid the killing intent in his eyes, and told Dafu:

"You should watch carefully these few days, don't let her have a chance to go to Yunshuiju."

"Tomorrow, ask Mama Tian to open a storeroom for clothes and jewellery, calligraphy and painting objects given by Shang from the palace, and order Huichun to count the booklets and dry them in person."

Dafu jotted down one by one with a puffy face, as if he was still a little worried.

"Is it dangerous for the Princess to keep people in her house?"

Li Taiwei arranged this way, even though Dafu was a little more dull than ordinary people, he also felt something was wrong.

Mrs. Li sneered:
"Stay in the yard and watch for now, I'm still useful."

Dafu nodded:

"Dafu has strength and can protect the princess, so that the villains will not take advantage of the loopholes!"

Li Taiwei suppressed the sparkle in his eyes, and ordered:
"Tomorrow when eldest cousin returns home, you will go to the Qiutang Courtyard for me, and send a letter to Second Young Master, saying that I have something to ask him, and tell him to come to the Spring Garden when he is free."

Dafu accepted, saluted and ran out quickly.

"Princess, the old lady invites the princess to visit Hua'an Hall."

A maid called out from outside the door.

Mrs. Li squinted her eyes slightly, and counted with her fingers, this is what should come.
The lights in Hua'an Hall were brightly lit, and a group of servants and servants stood with their heads bowed, not daring to make a sound.

Li Taiwei raised the corner of her skirt to enter the door, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Mrs. Li sitting in the hall, leaning on a cane in her hand, looking at her with a gloomy expression, even uglier than when she fought with Lu Xiao last time.

Grandma Sun stood behind Mrs. Li, pursed her lips and gave Mrs. Li a secret wink.

Li Taiwei's eyes turned, and Mrs. Li made a move, as expected, Xue Suqin was sitting.

She sat there with her head bowed, as if she had been extremely wronged, and when she heard Li Taiwei's footsteps, she raised her eyes, moistened her eyes, and gave her a meaningful look.

Li Taiwei sneered in her heart, she thought this Mrs. Xue was someone who could hold her breath, and she sued her grandmother in only two or three days.

With her tricks, if she could really plan to climb into her father's bed in her previous life, then how stupid her father would be!The position of prime minister, I'm afraid he has moved away a long time ago!
Then... it can only be that his father also has this kind of heart?But last time Nian Xia also said that his father had several disputes with his grandmother because of Xue Shi, so what happened?
Li Taiwei restrained her thoughts, and went forward to greet Mrs. Li.

Li Taiwei kowtowed politely, but she couldn't wait for Mrs. Li's response for a long time.

Li Taiwei straightened up and called "Grandma" softly again.

Mrs. Li sneered:
"Your wings are stiff now, I'm afraid you can't tolerate me as a grandmother anymore!"

Li Taiwei lowered her eyes:
"The granddaughter dare not, I don't know what the granddaughter did wrong to make grandma so angry."

Mrs. Li laughed back in anger, pointed at Li Taiwei with one hand and said:

"You don't know?"

"A few days ago you drove your cousin away in front of everyone, did you say that?"

Li Taiwei turned her head and glanced at Xue Suqin, obviously smiling, but that gaze cut Xue's face like a knife blade, causing Xue to shiver uncontrollably.

Mrs. Li smiled and said:
"What? Biao Xue went to grandma to sue me?"

What she said was extremely childish, but Xue Suqin's face became hot, and she hurriedly said:

"No, no... the princess misunderstood..."

"You cousin Xue is my honored guest! You live alone in the mansion, and it's fine if you don't take care of me normally, but you still speak rudely and offend the elders!"

"Let's not mention that you just had a fight with Changping Hou Shizi a few days ago, I don't care about it with you! Now this disaster has happened again! What? Your mother taught you like this on weekdays? Our girls from the Zhongyonghou Mansion are so rude?"

Mrs. Li saw Xue's pale face, shrunken body and pitiful appearance, so she couldn't help but get really angry, and she couldn't care about the seriousness when she said it.

The smile on Li Taiwei's face faded, and she raised her eyebrows and said:

"My father is the current prime minister, and my mother is the princess of Xiliang. Even my grandmother, you are also a first-class royal! I don't know how Biaogu Xue can bear such an expensive name in my Li family?"

"The family of the Xue family and my Li family have long been married. She is an older unmarried daughter who has lived in my house for more than half a year. The granddaughter also kindly cares about the reputation of the Xue family, and the grandmother does not want Xue Biao. Auntie will ask someone to poke the spine in the future, right?"
