Chapter 473 Let's see who is worse

The servants of the second room followed all the way, but they saw Bai Kou sincerely taking their grandmas to meet the manager and steward of the mansion one by one. By the way, the servants who came and went around also followed to get to know Grandma Xu.

Bai Kou led Gan's around the huge mansion, and they were almost exhausted from walking, and they really wanted to sit down and have a rest.

Gan Shi was also flustered with exhaustion. She had never walked so long at home without stopping, but seeing that Bai Kou and Gu Hui were both in high spirits, it was difficult for her to ask for a rest, so she insisted on walking Going down, the girl and servant behind her had no choice but to shut up and follow.

Bai Kou took Gan to meet the main managers and stewards, and then took her to the school grounds in Xitou. Whenever there was a big banquet in the mansion, the men's seats were always set here, so that the main table could take care of all the guests.

The colorful shed has also been set up on the school grounds, and the servants are setting up tables and chairs. Seeing this lively and festive scene, Gan's spirits are lifted, he forgets his fatigue, and walks around with great interest, while the servants are also Greeted by the on-site stewards, he put down his work and lined up in front of Gan to salute.

After coming out of the school grounds, Bai Kou took Gan to the big garden of the back house. The women's seats were set in the waterside pavilion. After opening the soft partition, there was a spacious indoor venue. The girls inside were also busy working. Mama Pang, who came to check and supervise.

Mother Pang took Gan's upstairs and downstairs, and pointed out the location of the main table. The people on the same floor as the main table were all blood relatives.

Gan finally came to the platform on the third floor, leaning on the railing to look at the panoramic view of the garden, Mama Pang resigned first because of the complicated affairs, and told Bai Kou to take care of her.

The maids brought chairs for Gan and Gu Hui to sit on, so that they could relax their aching feet from walking. Gan's four dowry maids waited on the platform together. The servants were all waiting indoors, and they were exhausted, looking for a place to sit, not in the mood to stare at what Grandma and Bai Kou would say.

Gan Shi took a good rest for a while, seeing that the platform was surrounded by his own people, so he didn't restrain his curiosity, and called Bai Kou to talk to him.

"What is Grandma Xu's order?"

"Thank you today. You gave me a complete introduction to the situation in the mansion. My mother-in-law left her usual old steward as my assistant, but the old servant didn't say anything, only bad things about you."

"I know that the housework in the public school is taken care of by the housekeeper, and the second and third bedrooms only take care of their own housework, but Gu Xu has lived alone since he became an adult, so why doesn't he have a manager like you around him? "

"Uncle Xu used to have someone to take care of his daily chores."

"Before? Does it mean that there is no such thing now?"

"Uncle Xu used to have two capable housekeepers."

"Tongfang?" Gan didn't care that her husband had someone in the house before marriage, she was just curious, "What about him? Did you get rid of him before marriage?"

"I don't know. I was gone at the end of last year. The servant girl doesn't know where those two people went. Since then, the second lady has sent someone to take care of Uncle Xu's daily affairs. Uncle Xu is only interested in reading and has a noble temperament. I haven't heard that he took the initiative to ask about family affairs."

Gan Shi looked at Bai Kou's face, showing that naked expression that she knew something but didn't want to say it.

"Is there any inconvenience?"

"Grandma Xu, you are newly married. Since you don't even know that Uncle Xu had intercourse before, it's better not to be curious about the status quo of those two intercourses, so as not to cause harm to your heart."

Bai Kou really doesn't know where the two couples are now, but they found out that they were pregnant at the end of last year, and their stomachs were not obvious when they had the outbreak, so it was early pregnancy. After a lot of trouble, Gu Xu finally decided to let them have a baby. If the second wife didn't force them to have an abortion, counting the days, August and September are their due dates.

Regardless of whether Gu Xu will have two more concubine children, if Gan Shi knows about the incident caused by his intercourse pregnancy, it is hard to say whether her new daughter-in-law can accept it.

"Bai Kou, I am the eldest daughter-in-law of the second house now, if there is anything I should know, please tell me."

"Grandma Xu, the servant girl is the steward of the Zhongming Courtyard, and I don't know much about the housework of the second room. If I tell you too much, I will be sued in front of the eldest lady. The maidservant cannot bear the charge of telling the truth about the master." .”

"It's because I didn't think well. I won't embarrass you, lest you make it difficult to be a human being and affect our relationship."

"Thank you Grandma Xu for your understanding."

"It's almost noon, I'd better go back and rest, I always feel sleepy sitting here."

Gan shi supported the girl's hand to stand up, the group went downstairs and parted in the big garden, the servants of the second room led Gan shi back through another stone path.

Bai Kou sent Gu Hui back first, and told her to take a good rest at noon, and there will be her chess club in the afternoon.

Gan went back to his room, spread out his pen and ink, and while his memory was still fresh, he silently wrote down all the managers and stewards he had met before, and he would go to them directly if he had anything to do in the future.

Apart from two of her four dowry maids who were waiting by her side, two of them were waiting on the porch outside the door. The old servant took the opportunity to surround them, chatting and asking what Bai Kou had said to them this morning.

These two girls are also clever, while complaining about the pain in their backs and backs from walking, they also praised Bai Kou for being conscientious in managing things. By leading them to know the manager and steward of the mansion, the grandma will definitely be more handy in handling housework in the future.

The four of them heard what Bai Kou said on the waterside platform earlier, but they never mentioned it, they just pretended not to know about it and waited for their lady's orders wholeheartedly.

They have served the lady since they were young, and their relationship for more than ten years is full of sympathy and tacit understanding. They will never say things that should not be said.

Seeing that they couldn't ask what they wanted to hear, the old servants could only think that Bai Kou was really just leading the young mistress to familiarize herself with the personnel affairs in the mansion. After knowing all about the personnel affairs in the mansion, it is very likely that if something happens in the future, they will directly pass over these old people and give orders to the chief managers and stewards.

It is not that easy for a new daughter-in-law to take over the power of the house while her mother-in-law is away.

That Bai Kou really knew how to please the young mistress.

The old steward almost gritted his old teeth, and cursed Bai Kou a thousand times in his heart, inciting mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to fight to death.

The old man and his wife will only come home a few years ago, and in the past few months, they must be on guard against Bai Kou's tricks. That little maidservant has too much bad water in her stomach, so she has to guard against it.
