The queen is tea-smooth and charming, and she wins the house fight by lying down

Chapter 41 She Won't Save Money for Him
The Duke of Weiguo knew very well that due to the grudges over his former daughter-in-law, the conflict between Xiao Yan and Jiang would be difficult to reconcile.

Facing this grandson who was most like him, he never thought of forcing him to bow his head.

However, as a grandfather, no matter how partial he is, Xun Ge'er is still his grandson.

He didn't ask for the two grandsons to be close, he just hoped that they would not become enemies because of their elders' affairs.

The Duke of Wei originally thought that with Xiao Yan's bad temper, he would live with worry until the day he died.

But the appearance of Yue Hua suddenly gave him some hope.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I remember there is a piece of flowing brocade given by the emperor in the storeroom. You can give it to your grandson's wife."

Butler Liu was surprised, thinking that the young lady had only been married for a few days, but the master had already sent her so many gifts.
-
Yue Xianhua was leaning on the beauty couch and flipping through the local chronicles she brought from the Marquis's Mansion when she heard that the old Duke had sent another gift.

She looked up from the book, with surprise on her pretty face.

Yunzhi and Qing'er on the side were delighted: "The Duke's Mansion is really generous and really values ​​the young lady!"

Otherwise, why didn’t the Duke send it to someone else but only to their young lady?
Yue Xianhua was helped up by a maid and went to the outer room in person.

Steward Liu was originally a personal soldier under the Duke. His parents, wife and children all died in a famine. After the war, he had nowhere to go. The Duke took pity on him and kept him in the mansion as a steward.

He is the Duke of Wei's true confidant, and even the little bully Xiao Yan has to show him some courtesy.

Since he came in person to deliver the gift, Yue Xianhua naturally had to meet him.

"Thank you for the trip, Steward Liu. I just don't know why Grandfather gave me these."

Hearing her question, Butler Liu smiled and said, "The master said that he was happy to see the whole family in the mansion happy. This is all thanks to the young lady, so he specially asked this old servant to bring some gifts over."

Yue Xianhua thought about this and quickly understood what it meant. He quickly said modestly:

"I don't deserve to be your granddaughter-in-law. I didn't do anything. I just mentioned the recipe of the dish casually. Second Mother was just returning the favor."

Butler Liu smiled unchanged: "That's good, Madam, don't worry too much."

The gift was delivered to the host, and Butler Liu turned around and said goodbye.

Looking at the other person's back, Yue Huahua felt a few ripples in his heart for some reason, and said inexplicably: "Butler Liu, please stay."

Butler Liu paused and turned around: "Young Madam, do you have anything else to say?"

Yue Xianhua nodded, then whispered a few words to Qing'er behind him.

After hearing her words, even someone as calm as Qing'er showed a look of surprise.

But she didn't say anything, turned around and went back to the room. After a while, she came out with a white porcelain bottle in her hand.

Yue Xianhua handed the white porcelain bottle to the butler:
"On the day I received the decree, I noticed that my grandfather's face was flushed, his lips were dry, and his brows were slightly furrowed, which was a sign of an overheated heart. This is the Summer Dew Heart-Clearing Pill I made based on the recipe given by Master Qing'an. It is made from summer morning dew. After taking it, it can clear the heart, improve eyesight, and calm the mind.

Please ask Butler Liu to pass it to grandfather, as a token of filial piety from the granddaughter-in-law."

When Butler Liu heard the name "Master Qing'an", he already knew that this was definitely a good thing.

He took it and said seriously: "Don't worry, Madam, I will definitely hand it over to the master."

He paused: "You are thoughtful."

The young lady had been married into the mansion for only a short time, and had met the old Duke only a few times. But even under such circumstances, she was still able to give such a thoughtful gift.

Butler Liu suddenly understood how this person gained such a good reputation.

When he returned and gave this "return gift" to Duke Wei, the old man was surprised and then laughed:

"Such a good daughter-in-law should be married to my mansion. That bastard did nothing wrong this time!" Butler Liu's mouth twitched: What did he do wrong? Was it wrong to rob someone's fiancée? -
"Miss……"

In Qingfeng Courtyard, as soon as Butler Liu left, Qing'er looked at Yue Xihua with some worry.

Even though the young lady looked calm and nonchalant when she handed over the bottle of medicine, only those around her knew how rare this medicine was.

The reason is that the old marquis always suffers from palpitations, insomnia and excessive heart fire in summer, and the young lady has been worried.

Until she accidentally learned that Master Qing'an had a very effective prescription for this disease, she, the young Jin from the Tangtang Marquis Mansion, did not hesitate to condescend and go to Master Qing'an's thatched cottage to ask for the medicine in person. She worked as his cook for two whole months before she finally moved him and got the medicine.

And this was just the beginning. The early summer morning dew needed in the pill recipe was also extracted by the young lady herself, and she never asked anyone else to do it for her.

It was such a pity that I didn't have the chance to express my filial piety in the end.

"Let's go back."

Yue Xianhua was just about to go back to her room to continue reading her local chronicles when she heard the voice of the housekeeper who was rushing over behind her.

That’s right, the steward of Qingfengyuan’s surname is Da, and everyone calls him the chief steward.

When Yunzhi first heard about it, she joked, "There's a big butler here, but is there also a 'little' butler to partner with him?"

"Madam, today is a sunny and beautiful day. Do you have time to meet the other servants in the yard?"

Yue Xianhua paused as she entered the room. When she heard what the butler said, her first reaction was to refuse.

But as if he saw through her thoughts, the butler continued:

"If Madam is not available, then we can wait until next time. The Master has instructed us not to tire you out."

A subtle stiffness flashed across the face of the girl who was originally calm.

Who is the most tiring one?

She took a deep breath and said, "Then let's meet."

The chief butler nodded: "Yes! I will arrange it right away."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and told his servants to gather in the yard.

Yue Xianhua waited in the room for about an incense stick of time. All the servants in Qingfeng Courtyard gathered and stood at the foot of the courtyard waiting for the young lady to lecture her.

Although Yue Xianhua had been married for a few days and the servants were more or less familiar with her, they had not yet had any real contact with her.

"Madam, everyone is here, you can go out now."

Chunlan reminded from the side, Yue Xianhua nodded, and was helped up from the stool by Yunzhi.

She was about to go out, but suddenly she thought of something and stopped, raising her beautiful pointed chin slightly: "Go and open the box that the son-in-law sent last night."

Qing'er and Yunzhi couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, with similar smiles flashing in their eyes, and they said in unison: "Yes!"

In fact, what my brother-in-law brought last night was a large box and a small box that was half an arm's length.

When the small box was opened, there was a box full of tempting golden ingots.

The big box was filled with copper coins, the kind that could kill someone if they were poured out. He said that the small ones were for the young lady to keep for her own use, and the big ones were for rewarding the servants.

Who could have thought it would come in handy so soon?
Apart from anything else, the son-in-law was so thoughtful and considerate that he even took every detail into consideration for the young lady, which really won the favor of the two girls.
