Haitang Garden and Tingzhu Garden were tidied up hastily, and Madam Qi did it on purpose, so they were quite simple and crude, with almost no decent decorations.

But Jiang Liniang and Mrs. Jiang didn't care at all.

Their own property is also quite rich, and they have some good things. Lord Xie has taken care of them all these years, and he has never missed festivals and festivals, and there is also money for offerings every year.

Although Qi's was in charge of these matters, she didn't dare to skimp on them, otherwise she wouldn't be able to please her.

The mother and daughter have been staring at her fault.

Besides, now that she has entered the Hou's mansion, Jiang Liniang is confident to get something from the Hou, so what's the rush?

There is nothing special about taking concubines, as soon as someone enters the door, everyone in the house knows that Aunt Jiang has come, that's all.

Naturally, Master Xie would not wrong Aunt Jiang and make people look down on her. That night, he stayed in Haitang Garden.

This night, the Begonia Court was full of dry wood and fire, like paint and glue, Cuiwei Hall was as usual, but the Qi family in Minse Hall was angry and only fell asleep indiscriminately in the middle of the night.

Early the next morning, Master Xie went to the upper yamen with a happy face and a happy face. Before he left, he sent someone to tell the housekeeper to buy things for Aunt Jiang, mother and daughter according to the list they made. Reward half a month's money.

The old lady, two wives, two young ladies and the young master also have a share, and they get two extra months' money from the public.

Qi's mother and daughter were so angry that they almost vomited blood!

Xie Yunshu's monthly bill is 20 taels, Su's 50 taels, and the old lady's 200 taels. Now the mother and daughter are earning another 140 taels, which is a great joy.

Aunt Jiang's black hair is combed in a cloud bun, with pink begonia piles of gauze flowers, double-knotted wishful hairpins, magpie climbing plum hairpins, begonia red and silver silk dark wishful cloud pattern begonias, autumn-colored long skirts, and maids playing pianos , Bixiao accompanied her to serve tea to the head mistress.

The tea ceremony was specially arranged in a flower hall, with Su and Qi sitting on both sides.

Mrs. Liu led people in, Qi and Su had already set up round kneeling mats, and Xie Yunshu and Xie Yunqian sat down.

Seeing Aunt Jiang coming in with a radiant face and a shy face, Qi's was literally shot in the chest, and she couldn't stand it.Xie Yunqian hummed directly.

Su's smile was reserved, and Xie Yunshu's was full of smiles.

Anyway, Qi's mother and daughter are unhappy, so she is happy.

"Aunt Jiang, serve tea to the mistress!" said Mrs. Liu.

Aunt Jiang picked up a cup of tea from the tea tray brought by the maid, knelt down in front of Mrs. Su, held the tea cup high with both hands and offered it over her head: "My concubine Jiang pays her respects to the mistress and presents tea to Da Furen."

Baixiang beside the eldest lady took the tea cup and presented it to Mrs. Su took a sip and motioned for Baixiang to present her as a meeting gift. Inside the small box was a pair of gold hairpins with pearls and plum blossoms.

"Serve Lord Hou well from now on!"

"Yes, my concubine will definitely serve Lord Hou and Da Furen wholeheartedly."

Qi's face was already very ugly when she knelt down, she purposely didn't introduce Su as the eldest lady, just to let Aunt Jiang make a statement and see who she would bow to first.

If she worships herself first, then it doesn't matter if she tolerates her a little or two. If Mrs. Su is fussy about such a small matter, she won't be afraid to make a fuss. Aunt Jiang's "I don't know" and her "I think she knows" will explain it. .

It's such a big deal, it's not worth worrying about.

Unexpectedly, she knelt down and bowed to the Su family without even hesitation!Okay, okay, she is the country woman standing in line, right?Then don't blame her for being rude!

Qi's anger was double-layered: Did someone choose Su's instead of her?Are you blind?
When Aunt Jiang offered tea to herself, Mrs. Qi endured the nausea and took it. She also rewarded her with something, and quickly pointed out that there was something to do and left.

It's not that she didn't want to humiliate Aunt Jiang, but Su didn't do this. If she did, wouldn't it make Su's gentle and virtuous, and she herself a narrow-minded villain?
In comparison, Qi's is of course more unwilling to lose to Su's, so he has to hold his nose and bear it. Today is considered cheap for Aunt Jiang!
After Qi's mother and daughter left, Su smiled at Aunt Jiang and said, "Can Aunt Jiang go to pay the old lady well?"

Aunt Jiang's eyes lit up, and she quickly nodded to accompany her smile: "It's my concubine's blessing to be invited by Da Furen, and I can't wait for it! Both my concubine and my mother should go to pay my respects to the old lady!"

Su smiled and said: "If you have such a heart, the old lady must be happy. You go back first, I will ask the old lady, and then I will tell you."

"Yes, Mrs. Xie!"

Su Shi nodded and left with Xie Yunshu.

Aunt Jiang bowed her knees in the back and saluted: "My concubine sends you off to Da Furen!"

Xie Yunshu wanted to laugh in her heart, this Aunt Jiang is really capable.

Her mother is also very capable.

It will be very lively in the house!

Anyway, Xie Yunshu didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.
Mrs. Su and Xie Yunshu went to Songhe Hall to accompany the old lady to have breakfast together. When she mentioned Aunt Jiang by the way, Mrs. Xie was really interested. After hearing Mrs. Su praised her twice for being gentle and courteous, Mrs. Xie even more from a good impression.

Mrs. Su smiled and said that when Aunt Jiang and her daughter wanted to come over to say hello to the old lady, the old lady Xie agreed without thinking.

Madam Ling smiled and sent someone to invite her.

Today's tea ceremony went smoothly, Aunt Jiang was very happy, both mother and daughter were very grateful to Mrs. Su.

If it weren't for Su's presence, Qi's sinister and vicious smiling tiger would have no idea how to deal with it!
"From now on, we will all be on the side of the eldest lady and the eldest lady, Liniang, you have to keep it in mind, you know?"

Jiang Liniang smiled: "How can I not know this? Don't worry, mother!"

Mrs. Jiang reminded emphatically: "In short, you have to keep in mind all the time. The boldness and courage of the eldest lady are not something ordinary people can have. How long have you been in Beijing? She has the ability to count as Qi's family! Her relatives Niang firmly holds the position of the original wife, and I think she probably has her means. Their mother and daughter must not be underestimated. Since we are in the team, we must do it honestly, and we must not betray and change, otherwise, The eldest lady is getting angry, I'm afraid the two of us together are no match for her!"

Jiang Liniang was taken aback: "Mother, Missy is not so powerful."

Mrs. Jiang sneered: "To be honest, I'm a little afraid of her, and I can't see through her mind. You must remember what mother said."

Naturally, Jiang Liniang knew her mother's methods, and hurriedly said seriously: "Mother, don't worry, I don't know what kind of heart Qi's person is? Naturally, he is on the side of the eldest lady and the eldest lady."

"If they send you something, don't refuse."

"This - well, I listen to mother!"

Only then did Mrs. Jiang smile with satisfaction.

After a while, someone from Songhetang invited them over.

Both mother and daughter are overjoyed.
