Chapter 173 The Second Wife Wants to Transfer Someone
In the courtyard, the five of Lu Doudou and the others woke up early for their lunch break, drank hot water, chatted one after another, and waited for the time to work. When they heard someone knocking on the courtyard door, Wan Qiu answered the door and brought Bai Kou Welcomed in.

"Hey, Bai Guanshi, why are you free at this time?"

Lu Doudou made a joke, and led Bai Kou into her room with a smile. Hong Su took a clean cup and a cup of hot water and followed Wan Qiu in.

"It's at this time that I have time to come over and talk to Manager Zeng Zhu about things, and I'll come and see you."

"I knew you came here to talk about something." Lu Doudou wrinkled her nose delicately.

"I came here in a hurry when I heard a new piece of gossip from Manager Zeng Zhu. You still hate me."

"Ah, we are talking about this, the second lady is going to transfer two of us!" Wan Qiu answered happily.

"I'm here for this matter, and I want to hear your opinions."

"You don't look like you're happy for us at all, isn't it good?" Hong Su asked tactfully.

"The second lady is not a master who will be generous to her servants, you should think about it clearly."

"Are you petty?"

"Do you remember the first time you made water buns?"

The three girls nodded repeatedly.

"I only found out afterward that the steamed bun was put on Miss San's head, and it was said that she made it for Jiji's uncle and cousin herself."

"Ah?! Gunner!?"

"It was a reward that time, right? You all got the money."

The girls nod again.

"On Miss San's birthday, I made two snacks, but I didn't see a penny reward, and the snacks were still placed on Miss San's head."

"Isn't it?"

"The uncle and cousin of the third lady are well-known in Miss Qianjin's circle for being good at cooking, but the two daughters under the second lady's knees are not good at cooking. They secretly asked me to be a gunman several times, thinking that I didn't notice it."

"Then what does the second lady want to transfer us to?"

"Being a personal girl will be a dowry in the future. Miss doesn't have to cook by herself. They can also just know the recipes and let the girl next to them take care of everything."

"Let the girl be the shooter?"

"The close maid is the left and right arms of the lady. If the maid cooks, she is not a gunner. She should blame herself for what the cook does."

"But it's a dowry... I'm going to someone else's house." Lu Doudou was worried.

"For the day of dowry, please refer to Zeng Zhu's management." Bai Kou said indifferently.

The three girls immediately looked at each other with bitter faces.

"In the beginning, Zeng Zhu was a servant who was highly valued, but after a long time, did the second wife still think of her? The dowry girl will usually be confiscated by the uncle. If she gets favored, it will make the lady jealous, God knows. The masters have all kinds of reasonable excuses to dismiss their servants, and it is hard to say what will happen to the dowry girl who has lost her support."

"Boss, what do you think we should do?"

"It's up to you to think about it yourself. If you are willing to serve the lady, I will help you to talk about it so that you can transfer there smoothly. If the second lady wants to transfer you, she must first talk to the eldest lady, but if there are two less people, There is not enough cooks in the East Kitchen, and we need to recruit new ones here, and we might have to spend money to buy them, but the second wife doesn’t spend a penny, so I got two well-trained girls for nothing.”

"It sounds like the second lady is quite shrewd." Hong Su said casually.

"If the transfer is really over, can we still meet easily?" Wan Qiu asked.

"It's definitely not possible to just sit and drink tea and chat casually like now. If others see it, they have to mutter about what the head and the second bedroom are doing. The masters will also worry about whether the secrets of the house have been revealed during the chat."

"Ah? If that's the case, then I won't do it, and I will become a stranger if I get transferred. I don't want it." Wan Qiu was the first to express his opinion by shaking his head.

"Well, I don't really want to go there. The second lady just wants someone to be a gunner, and she pretends to be confused and doesn't give rewards. It seems that she should work for her. Bai Kou was the chef of Wenling Academy at that time. To help is to borrow the manpower of the prince. It is too rare for a master to be stingy for this sake, and the servants should follow the generous master." Lu Doudou thought of the reward given by the head of the house, and immediately made a decision.

"That's right, a generous master will have a generous temper. I won't go, let the second lady buy the girl herself. Like we are used to the servants rewarded by the old lady and the eldest lady, why serve the stingy second lady. "Hong Su also stood by everyone.

"Is this what you really mean? Haven't you been misled by others?" Bai Kou had to confirm their thoughts, "I didn't regret taking the medicine."

"The eldest son is the rightful master. The second and third sons and daughters will be separated sooner or later. I prefer the title of maid in the Duke's mansion. I'm not going anywhere anyway." Lu Doudou pouted.

"Yes, I won't do it." Wan Qiu and Hong Su said in unison.

"Okay, I see, I will report it truthfully."

Bai Kou drank the hot water in the cup in one gulp, said goodbye to each other, and hurried back to Zhongming Courtyard.

Just after entering the courtyard, a girl came to report, the young master was waiting for her in the study, Bai Kou kept walking straight to the study.

"My lord, what are your orders?" When Bai Kou entered the door, he saw someone lying on the couch, smiling and bowing.

"I've been there for so long, but your supervision is quite conscientious."

"You need money to work." Bai Kou squinted her eyes and smiled like a cat, "By the way, I heard some gossip."

"I'll talk about gossip later, let's see which day I'm free in the next few days?"

Bai Kou hurriedly took out the notebook from the small leather bag on her shoulders, turned to the transcribed notes, and read them carefully.

"Today is the twenty-fourth day. Tomorrow you will go out for a drink, and it will be empty until the end of the month. What are your new arrangements?"

Bai Kou walked to the side of the couch and handed him the notebook to read.

Gu Yun reached out and grabbed the letter paper on the couch and handed it to Bai Kou.

"This guy Huang Bin invited me to play polo. I would rather play dead at home with him."

Bai Kou skimmed through the letter hastily. The letter didn't say the exact date. It just said that the autumn has been cool recently. Before the rankings were released, the brothers gathered together to play a game. There was no identity title on the letter paper, but there was an exclusive logo printed on the envelope .

"Huang Bin from Duke Yi's family? Is he close to you?"

"You don't know that Huang Bin is the youngest grandson of Duke Yi, so he has to call our old lady aunt?" Gu Yun rolled his eyes.

Bai Kou rolled her eyes in embarrassment.

"You should memorize the kinship relationship in our house earlier."

"Yes, my son." Bai Kou stuck out his tongue, "Why don't you want to accept this appointment? Don't tell me you're not good at golf?"

"Who said I can't do it?!" Gu Yun exploded immediately, "I just don't want to play with that coquettish guy!"

"Coquettish? Is it more handsome than you? Only a handsome guy has the capital to be coquettish!" Bai Kou was aroused, and his eyes lit up.

Gu Yun suddenly regretted not keeping his mouth shut, knowing that Bai Kou likes to look at handsome men.

"Don't play his mind."

"The servant girl is not his maidservant, so I can't make up my mind, son."

Gu Yun felt that these words made sense, and felt better again.

"Then, son, do you want to accept the appointment?"

"No. Write back and say I'm not available."

"What if he came home?"

"Say I'm not here."

"What a pity."

"What a pity! You just want to see beautiful men! You are so lustful at such a young age!"

"I'm so beautiful, I can't even look at it? If you don't want to look at it, just stay at home, why go out!"

Facing Bai Kou's plausible words, Gu Yun was speechless.
