Mrs. Tai met her two daughters-in-law, and told her that she was going to offer incense at the family temple on the fifteenth day, and asked them if they would go.

When Wang heard this, she glanced at Luo Fu, and said coldly: "The daughter-in-law has just suffered from the secret loss of the Luo family. If the mother-in-law takes her, then the daughter-in-law should avoid it, or she may be caught by this girl again." Framed by a poisonous woman."

Recently, Mrs. Wang was deprived of the right to be in charge of the house, and her natal brother and sister-in-law forced her to hand over Luo Fu before she would recognize her. How could Mrs. Wang not hate her.

It's just that Luo Fu was taken away by Sima Chao a while ago, no matter how much Wang tried to find her, she was beyond her reach. Now that she finally waited for Love's return, Wang saw her mother-in-law came to protect her again. She was almost suffocated, so she spoke The tone was inevitably harsh.

Mrs. Tai is not used to her temper. When the old man saw his daughter-in-law say such ugly words in front of her, she said with a sullen face: "Your niece's maid seduced the coachman and harmed the master instead. After all, it was you The fault of your natal family, now your brother and sister-in-law complain that you didn't take good care of their daughter, but you come to run on Chao'er's people, what's the reason for that?"

Wang argued: "Mother-in-law, Jia'er kept saying that she had slept in another room with Luo Shi that night, but somehow she returned to her own room in the middle of the night for no reason. This was not framed by Luo Shi. , and who is it?"

Mrs. Tai rolled her eyes at Mrs. Wang, and said in a deep voice: "The coachman has already identified Li'er, can there be a fake? Your niece's own maid has done something shameless, but she came to bite our family. In this way, She is also a wicked child."

Seeing that Mrs. Wang still wanted to speak, Mrs. Tai said impatiently: "Enough! Don't mention this matter again."

Mrs. Tai said again: "The boss and the second child are away on an expedition. The house must be peaceful. If anyone dares to make trouble again these days, don't blame me for being merciless." Then, Mrs. Tai looked at Mrs. Wang: "My boss , do you understand?"

Although Wang was not convinced in her heart, how could she dare to explode in front of her mother-in-law, and hurriedly stated: "My daughter-in-law remembers her mother-in-law's teachings."

Letting go of this trouble, I don't want to say any more, and then I said to Su Shi: "Is everything going well in the house these few days?"

Now Mrs. Su is in charge of the big house. Seeing Mrs. Tai asking, Mrs. Su replied slowly: "Everything is going well, and it is about to enter summer. The day before yesterday, I just ordered the manager to come to all houses and courtyards. The materials for the clothes of the master and the servants are just not peaceful everywhere. I heard that there is a war in the south this year, and there are fewer business travelers who can enter Beijing. The price of silk and satin this summer has increased a lot, which is [-]% more expensive than before. .”

"It's so much more expensive?" Without waiting for others to speak, Wang was the first to retort: ​​"It's normal for prices to rise, but the war hasn't lasted for a year or two. How come the silk and satin prices have increased so much this year?"

She was alluding to Su's embezzlement of money for buying clothes.

Su Shi saw that Wang Shi deliberately made things difficult, but she was not arrogant or impetuous, and said slowly: "This year there was civil strife in Suizhou in the south, where is the place where silk and satin are produced. Not many, even business travelers rarely come to Beijing anymore, and now the major silk cloth shops are buying old stocks, as the saying goes, rare things are more expensive, so the price of silk and satin in Beijing and China has risen sharply."

As he said that, Su took out a book of accounts from his sleeve pocket, brought it to Mrs. Tai and said: "This is all the accounts since my daughter-in-law took charge of the house, please have a look at it."

Sitting on the side, Mrs. Wang muttered embarrassingly: "So what if there are accounts? Can't the accounts be faked?"

Mrs. Tai secretly rolled her eyes at Mrs. Wang, and then said to Mrs. Su: "You have been married to the Sima Mansion for so many years, and your mother-in-law naturally knows what kind of person you are, and you are a child with good conduct, otherwise the boss would not let you take care of me." It’s a matter, you just take care of it, I’m old too, and now I’m dazzled when I look at these accounts, so I don’t need to look at them.”

After hearing the words, Mrs. Su didn't make further excuses, she withdrew the accounts, and saluted Mrs. Tai: "Daughter-in-law, thank you mother-in-law for your trust."

After returning from Luo'an Hall, Mrs. Wang was so angry that she threw things all over the room.

Things are not going well for Mrs. Wang these days, and she loses her temper at every turn, which is commonplace for the servants, but they all shrank their heads, so terrified that they dare not even vent their anger.

After Mrs. Wang had exhausted her inner anger and calmed down, Nanny Xu served a cup of hot tea and comforted her, "Don't worry, Ma'am, Mrs. Su is also a concubine after all, just let her enjoy herself for a few days." , after you take a breather, it will not be too late to deal with her again."

Mrs. Wang took a sip of tea, suppressed the anger in her heart, sighed and said: "Thinking that I have been married to Sima Mansion for so many years, I have never seen any monsters and goblins. It's so bad these days, and I'm so old. And let a concubine climb over my head."

Mother Xu replied: "Isn't it? It's really not going well these days. This bad luck happened one after another. If you want this old slave to say, it's all caused by the Luo family. Ever since she came in, We didn't get through."

When mentioning Love, Wang's teeth were itchy: "This bitch is cunning and good at acting. She is my nemesis. If it wasn't for her, how could I have ended up in such a situation."

"Oh! It was in vain for me to be smart all my life, but this time I fell into a big fall at her hands."

Mother Xu echoed: "This woman has such skills at such a young age, we have to guard her more."

"It's a pity that I couldn't get rid of her this time!" As she said, Wang looked at Madam Xu and asked, "Why is there no movement in Xiyuan? After the third girl fell ill a while ago, didn't she stay with her all day long?" Shouting to kill Luo Shi? Now that Luo Shi is back, did you not see her in Luo'an Hall today?"

Mother Xu sighed and said, "Don't mention it, the Second Madam is ill. I heard that she had a nightmare last night, and she was ill this morning."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang scolded: "It's really useless. I'm being jealous now, and I expect her to clean up Luo's family, so I can reap the benefits of being a fisherman. I don't want to, this guy is so useless." Top thing."

When Mother Xu heard this, she rolled her eyes, leaned close to Wang and replied, "Ma'am, I heard that Miss Liu's family disappeared during the hunt."

"I've heard about this too, hey! It's such a pity, it turns out that the Liu family still pretended to marry her to Chao'er, hehe, it's really a bamboo basket to fetch water now." There was a gloating smile in the corner of Wang's mouth. After saying these words, she couldn't help but asked Mother Xu, "I heard that he fell off the cliff and died?"

Mother Xu quietly replied: "That's the way it is said, but this morning the sick doctor in Dongyuan was met by the old slave. The doctor Zhang and the old slave's family had a little relationship, and the doctor's uncle was not in the Tai Hospital. Serving as an errand, I heard that although I drove to Qinghe a while ago, the old slave heard from him that the girl from the Liu family died a few days ago, and Princess Shuangchi also fell ill, and his uncle returned to the palace early with the princess."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang frowned and said, "What does the death of Miss Liu have to do with the princess?"

Mother Xu replied: "You are not in charge of the house for a while, and you don't go out with the noble ladies outside, so our news will naturally lag behind. The old slave heard that Concubine Guo had the intention to hand down the princess to the eldest son."

Mrs. Wang replied: "I have heard of this before, but the master has scruples after all, so he has not agreed." Then, she looked at Mammy Xu: "You mean, Miss Liu is the princess. Killed."

Madam Xu nodded: "I also guessed it myself."

Wang thought for a while, and murmured: "If that's the case, it can be seen that the princess is really powerful, hum! If the Luo family falls into her hands, it will save us trouble."
