Chaoli had said earlier that if Wang Yu needed anything, he could come to her. This was not without purpose.

Wang Yu nodded, "Don't worry, with the help of Mr. Cheng from Cheng Guogong's mansion, we have already settled in the capital in the shortest time. We must thank you and your son. I know, Mr. Cheng must be looking at your face. He only helped, and with his relationship, it will be much easier for us to do business in the future."

"Small things, don't need to say thank you. In the future, you will have the Zhenbeihou Mansion behind you. Maybe you can become an imperial merchant." Chao Li said with a smile.

But Wang Yu didn't dare to think too much about it.

Even with the Zhenbei Hou Mansion behind them, they still need to be strong.

Chao Li didn't say much, and she didn't need to say much, after all, Wei Xiwen might have the same idea after waiting for a while.

Being in the center of this vortex in the capital, it is impossible to not care about anything. It is normal for people to go to high places and water to flow to low places.

After chatting for a while, Wang Yu got up and left.

Chaoli rested for a while, read a book in the yard, and chatted with Pei Yu casually by the way.

Not long after, Lan Xin walked in.

"The servant has seen the concubine."

Chao Li didn't even raise his eyelids, "What's the matter?"

"If you come back to the concubine, the second lady has got a few good tricks, so I specially invite the concubine to go and have a look." Lan Xin said in a low voice.

Although Chaoli is the concubine of the world, but she is a junior after all, it seems reasonable for Zhang to send someone over to ask her to explain.

"Oh? Unexpectedly, Second Aunt is also interested in embroidery." Chao Li smiled.

Lan Xin's heart beat like a drum, and she didn't know what Chaoli was thinking, let alone whether she was willing to go, if she didn't, she could only change another way, or wait for an opportunity.

Now that Princess Dessau is away, Gu Hanzhang is also going to the morning court, which is actually the most convenient time, because neither of them will come back so soon.

If this opportunity is missed, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome at that time, and it may not be so easy to take Chaoli over.

In this way, I am afraid that the only way to do it is to take risks.

Fortunately, today they are preparing with both hands, and Lancao is also making moves.

This was also a double-handed preparation made by them because they were worried that Chaoli would not want to go to the second room.

"Concubine Shizi, do you think you want to go there so that I can get back a message." Lan Xin asked again.

Chao Li smiled slightly, "Don't worry, it's still early, I just wanted to chat with you."

Lan Xin was a little wary, "I don't know what the imperial concubine wants to say to the servant girl?"

"Actually, it's nothing. I just want to ask how you are doing in the outer courtyard. Do you want me to send you back to your mother? I think you feel wronged in my yard. I'd better send you to my mother's place first, at least not a sweeper." My servant girl." Chao Li said.

Lan Xin immediately knelt down, "Concubine Shizi, I don't think so. Concubine Shizi is doing well here."

Of course, it will get better and better in the future.

Seeing Lan Xin's sincere and fearful expression, Chao Li didn't say much.

"Okay, since you like being here, stay here, get up, don't kneel." Chao Li nodded.

"Yes." Lan Xin stood up.

At this moment, Lan Xin was also very nervous, fearing that Chao Li would find out.

Suddenly, Pei Yu walked in from the outside.

"Miss, Tsing Yi fought with the second lady's servant girl, and now she is pressed in the second lady's yard, saying that she will be punished."

According to Pei Yu's ability, naturally, this trouble cannot be solved.

But after all, she was in the Hou Mansion, of course she would not act rashly, and it was best to come to Chaoli.

Chao Li took a deep look at Lan Xin, then turned to Pei Yu.

"Let's go, take Ruoruo to the second bedroom. Second aunt didn't invite me to see the tricks, so I went to have a look. By the way, I also want to see who Qingyi is getting into trouble with, and I want second aunt to send her off. Tsingyi belongs to me." Maid girl, I have to bring him back." Chao Li paused, then looked at Lan Xin again, "Lan Xin, you wait outside."

"Yes, Shi Zifei." Lan Xin was slightly relieved.

But for some reason, she always felt that Zhao Li's look at her just now had some deep meaning, and she didn't know if it was her illusion.

It was as if she had seen everything.

Thinking of this, Lan Xin felt a little restless, worried that today's affairs would not go well.

But she never followed Chaoli, so of course she couldn't say anything at this moment, so she could only stay in the yard.

And Chaoli left with Pei Yu and Ruoruo to Zhang's yard.

Mrs. Zhang is sitting in the front hall at the moment, with a servant girl and Tsing Yi kneeling on the ground.

"Tsing Yi, you are the maid of your nephew and daughter-in-law. Logically speaking, I shouldn't come to reprimand you. But you are too much. You saw my medicine broken, so I must teach you for my nephew and daughter-in-law. Have a look." Zhang's eyes were full of scrutiny.

Ever since Tsing Yi was brought here until now, she has never been afraid at all.

Could it be that she thought that Chaoli would stand up for her?
It's just a maid, and it's not a very honorable status.

As Gu Hanzhang's concubine, Chaoli has no reason to turn against her because of a maid.

"Second Madam, this servant didn't do it on purpose, it was because someone bumped into me that I accidentally broke the medicine cup." Tsing Yi replied.

Ever since he followed Chaoli to Hou's Mansion, Tsing Yi is now much tougher.

Zhang's servant girl immediately retorted, "Ma'am, this servant walked well, it was because the Tsing Yi bumped into it that it broke, I beg Madam to spare this servant, this servant really didn't do it on purpose."

"Second Madam Mingjian, there is no maidservant, she bumped into it on purpose." Tsing Yi snorted coldly.

Mrs. Zhang suddenly became angry, "Presumptuous! A mere servant dares to yell in front of me, which is against you. Come on, hold me down and slap you, it seems that I want to teach you a lesson for your master. "

Footsteps were heard in the yard, followed by a voice.

"and many more."

Mrs. Zhang suppressed the smile at the corner of her mouth, but still had an angry look on her face.

"My nephew and daughter-in-law are here." Mrs. Zhang said.

Chao Li nodded slightly, "Second Aunt called me over to see the tricks, why didn't I come? It's just that I heard that my maid was escorted by Second Aunt's men, what happened? If my maid is wrong, I will naturally If you want to be disciplined, you won't bother Second Aunt."

It was obvious that Chaoli had heard what Mrs. Zhang said about punishing Tsing Yi just now, that's why Chaoli said such a sentence.

Her meaning is not difficult to understand, she can handle her maid herself, and there is no need for Mrs. Zhang to do it for her.

Zhang's face was a little embarrassed, she didn't expect Chaoli to disrespect her so much.

Originally, according to Zhang's thinking, Chaoli's superficial calm should be necessary, but who knows that she doesn't care at all.

"Nephew and daughter-in-law, you can't say that. Your maid broke my medicine, shouldn't you be punished?"
