Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 337 Butler
The next day after receiving the vanilla from Mrs. Xiao, Yao Cunhui went to Yanshunju to greet Mrs. Xiao as usual, caring about Mrs. Xiao's health as usual, asking her about her diet and daily life, whether she slept soundly at night, etc., just respectful in words Alienated a lot, not as relaxed as before, with a tone of intimacy.

Mrs. Xiao treated her in the same way, she was a little more polite in her kindness, and even Mama Li became more cautious in her words and actions.

Yao Cunhui sighed slightly in his heart, and then laughed at himself, maybe this is the normal relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?fair enough!
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went out together, and went to Cixinju to pay respects to Mrs. Shen.

Yao Cunhui was busy apologizing to Old Madam Shen again, and said with a smile that something was delayed yesterday, and she didn't have time to invite An Yunyun to Old Madam Shen.

Mrs. Shen raised her hand and smiled to let her sit down. She even said that it was okay, and said: "Didn't you send someone over to say something yesterday? It can be seen that you know the rules and obey the rules. My family, so it's very good." You don't need to be too restrained!" As usual, she asked a few more questions about Ma's condition, and Yao Cunhui answered them one by one.

Following Yao Cunhui's words, Duan's eyes turned slightly, and she smiled softly: "I wonder if the matter with my niece and daughter-in-law was resolved yesterday? I thought someone would accompany my niece and daughter-in-law to pay her respects today, but I didn't expect to see you." Man, hee hee!"

Mrs. Xiao froze slightly, Yao Cunhui was also slightly annoyed, Mrs. Xue was about to leave, but after hearing this, she sat firmly on the stool under her buttocks, and waited for the next sentence with a peaceful face.

Vanilla is the big girl next to Shen Quan, and her status is different from the others. Although she is not qualified to pay her respects every day, she takes the house book and treats it as a kowtow to the old lady.

Mrs. Shen was also a little surprised by this matter, but she didn't blame her for being reckless when she heard Duan's question, and waited for Yao Cunhui to explain with a smile.It's not that Mrs. Shen cares about vanilla, nor does she want to meddle in the big house's affairs.It was because Yao Cunhui didn't bring vanilla, because Yao Cunhui didn't know the rules and wanted to be gossiped about. On this matter, Mrs. Shen felt that she had been wronged just like Mrs. Xiao, and she didn't want her to be gossiped about again.

Xue sneered in her heart, but she knew that because she couldn't have a child, Duan put girls around the fourth master from left to right, in exchange for a promise that unless she had no children at forty, none of the girls and concubines would be happy. Can't conceive before her.Duan's is particularly sensitive about this matter. Seeing other people fall head over heels, she couldn't help but want to watch the fun!
Yao Cunhui lowered his eyes and smiled, and said calmly: "Is the fourth aunt talking about the girl Xiangcao? It's a pity, that girl is unlucky!" Yao Cunhui said, all sighed with regret.

"Yes, it's not that girl! Hehe, I heard that she even went to Yanshunju to ask her sister-in-law to be the master!" Duan's apricot eyes sparkled, sparkling, and her smile was even more interesting.

These words had richer meanings, Mrs. Xiao's face was slightly hot, and she almost couldn't sit still.

Yao Cunhui looked towards Mrs. Xiao unconsciously when she heard the words, and said softly: "Speaking of which, it's really unfilial for my daughter-in-law. It just so happens that my daughter-in-law is not at home, and all the servants are out of order. Such a trivial matter is too tiring for my mother to worry about." !"

"As for that girl," Yao Cunhui sighed softly, "I think the prince likes it, so I asked her to serve the prince last night, but who knows that girl didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, and somehow annoyed the prince, so the prince kicked her out last night." , I asked someone to send her out of the mansion at dawn today! The prince is in a fit of anger, so I don't want to ask!"

Yao Cunhui said, sighing with regret.

Whether it's a housekeeper or a concubine, it's all for serving the prince. It's just a boring thing, so the prince must like it himself!The prince doesn't like it, if he wants to kick her out, he kicks her out, who can say no?
Mrs. Shen's eyes flickered, then she nodded and said: "Forget it! Since the prince doesn't like it, just send it out. You can't find a good person! Don't mention this matter in the future!"

Mrs. Duan wanted to say something more, but when she heard the words, she had to stop smiling, and Yao Cunhui hurriedly responded to Mrs. Shen's words.

Hearing this, Mrs. Xue also felt that the boss was boring, so she coughed and stood up with a smile and said: "Old Madam, it's time for the mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law to talk back and forth, and the daughter-in-law will leave!"

"You go!" Mrs. Shen nodded.

"Second brother and sister, wait a minute," Mrs. Xiao suddenly called out to her, and said with a smile to Mrs. Shen: "Mr. Madam, my daughter-in-law's health is much better now, and it will be fine if you take it easy. I think I don’t know what the old lady would like for my daughter-in-law to learn housekeeping from her second younger sibling. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there are many things to do. It’s also good to follow along to get acquainted!”

Yao Cunhui was surprised, and looked at Mrs. Xiao with wide eyes in surprise, she did not expect Mrs. Xiao to speak for her so soon.

"That's fine, it's fine for grandson's daughter-in-law to experience her experience early, the second child, you have to take more care!" Old Madam Shen nodded in agreement after thinking for a while.

Yao Cunhui stood up early. Hearing these words, she pretended to be modest and excused a few words. Before others could speak, Xue went over and took Yao Cunhui's hand and said with a smile: "Nephew and daughter-in-law, don't be modest, the old lady and sister-in-law are all boasting." People can't be wrong! Hehe, there may be many things that Second Aunt needs you to mention!"

"Second Aunt, you care about old things. How can I take this seriously? Wouldn't it be embarrassing to let people hear it!"

"Don't be ashamed or ashamed! As the saying goes, the authorities are obsessed with the bystanders!" Xue's face was full of smiles.

Bystander?Yao Cunhui also laughed, after all, Xue still regarded her as an outsider.

Old Mrs. Shen originally said that this is enough, but after hearing the words and thinking about it, she added another sentence, "Let's see it this way, the second child, see if you have any small or big errands, leave it to the granddaughter-in-law alone Do it, send two proper people to take care of it, and let her follow you when you deal with other things on weekdays!"

Xue was taken aback, so she had to laugh with her, and said with a smile: "Then I have to think about it carefully to know what is suitable!"

"It's natural, whoever wants you to say it now!" The old lady nodded with a smile.

All of a sudden everyone dispersed.

When Shen Quan came back in the evening, Yao Cunhui told him about it.Shen Quan also nodded when he heard the words, "Since the old lady and mother said so, then you should follow along!" He laughed and said, "My Huier is so smart, there must be nothing difficult for you! I also thought, Second Aunt has been the housekeeper for too many years, if possible, next year you can take back the right to give back!"

Lu Ying's previous few words were just a spur-of-the-moment provocation, she may never have imagined that Shen Quan secretly investigated the situation of Shen's residence in the past three or four years because of these few words, and only then did she know many things that she had been ignoring and never had before. So thought about things.

"You think so too?" Yao Cunhui was a little surprised, and laughed and said, "Since when did our lord start to care about the middle school in the mansion? Or, are you afraid that I will be bullied?"

But Shen Quan sighed: "You really said it, I'm afraid you will be plotted against! Do you know? In the study that day, that dead girl Xiangcao dared to drug me in the tea! Hmph, she didn't want me to sink Who is Bi, just because she dares to grow so fat! She is a girl who grows up in the inner house, how can she get such medicine so easily? After I sent her away, I asked her in private, you know, This medicine was actually given to her by that wicked woman Lu Ying!"

Yao Cunhui couldn't help changing color, gritted her teeth and said, "Why is she so confused!" Yao Cunhui was in a cold sweat, secretly lucky that Vanilla had been sent away cleanly by Shen Quan and dealt with.Otherwise, with such a time bomb by my side, it might explode at any time!How could Lu Ying help her so kindly?From now on, this is the handle she holds firmly in her palm. Vanilla, a helpless little girl, what else can she use to fight her besides obediently obeying orders?

Yao Cunhui finally understood why Shen Quan said that.Lu Ying can bribe someone to assassinate him, and she can also try to assassinate her, even Rong Ma, Hong Liao and other people in Xihetang. Only when she firmly controls the middle class of the entire palace can she put an end to everything Accident.

Xue's work efficiency was very high, so he sent someone to invite Yao Cunhui to speak in the conference hall the next day.

"That's it," Xue said with a smile after exchanging greetings, "Everything is almost arranged now, except for two things that have not yet been staffed. As a boxing gift, the nephew and daughter-in-law should pick one and take care of it first!"

Yao Cunhui was not in a hurry to agree, but thought for a while and asked with a smile: "Dare to ask my second aunt, I don't know what the details are about the procurement and arrangement of flowers and trees and the festival gifts from various houses and houses. Please tell me the second aunt!"

Xue felt that she had too many things to do, but she had no choice but to answer her questions. She took a sip of tea, and unhurriedly raised the handkerchief to wipe the corners of her mouth. Let’s pay attention to festive occasions. Don’t underestimate the purchase and arrangement of flowers and trees. It is also a big event. The gardens, corridors, corridors, and halls and courtyards of the mansion must be cleaned up carefully, and suitable and new flowers and trees should be placed. , especially the main hall and flower hall where guests are to be entertained during the Spring Festival, the courtyard house of the old lady, the main courtyard of each house, the ancestral hall, and the Buddhist hall. It must meet the preferences of the owner of the courtyard and be festive and beautiful. Except for a small number of flowers and trees cultivated by ourselves in the flower room of our house, most of them have to be bought from professional gardeners. The deposit has already been paid. However, there are a lot of people who buy flowers and trees during the year, and those peonies, peonies, kumquats, begonias, etc. that bloom well can’t be bought even if you have money, so you have to send someone to keep an eye on them. Pick the rest! Also, we still have a lot of good bonsai in our house, they are all delicate things, some have grown for 30, [-], [-], [-] or [-] years, and now many of them are placed in the greenhouse In the garden, people have to be careful. Those hardy pines and cypresses, bamboos, rhododendrons, old vines, etc. have to be trimmed and taken care of, so that they can be placed in appropriate halls and yards before the year! Granny Jun likes the festivities and vitality everywhere in the mansion during Chinese New Year, this matter seems small, but it has a lot to do with it!"

"As for giving gifts to each family and house before that year," Mrs. Xue smiled, and continued: "At that time, the accountant will list the details one by one, and check the list to see if there is any mistake. No, just send someone to send it out when the time comes!"
