The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 383 Qiao Mansion General Election Maid Show (Part [-])
Qiao Jiuxiu's so-called method is very simple. It is just to hold a maid selection in the capital, and qualified people can become Qiao's maids, and even maids with special qualifications can be directly promoted to first-class maids.As soon as this matter was mentioned, the entire Qiao Mansion was in a state of eruption.Qiao Jiuxiu's original intention was to use this selection to give Yingluan a good opportunity to enter Qiao's mansion openly, and she knew how to do things after that.

She thought that if there was too much noise, no one would notice Yingluan.At that time, there will be a lot of maids in the Qiao Mansion, and all of them will be recruited through selection. Naturally, no one will feel that Yingluan is strange. Feeling a strong sense of uneasiness, and told the fourth aunt about this anxiety, the fourth aunt is now the head of Qiao's house, thinking about Qiao Jiuxiu's selection of maids, causing chaos in Qiao's house, biting slightly Lip, I think it's better to persuade her.

When Fourth Aunt found Qiao Jiuxiu, she was still lazily basking in the sun, and she looked very comfortable.Seeing Si Yiniang approaching, she just glanced at her slightly, and called "Auntie." Si Yiniang frowned, if it were someone else, she would definitely call herself "Madam" respectfully, unlike Qiao Jiuxiu Such ignorance of current affairs, not knowing that her identity has changed now, she even calls herself Auntie.

But Qiao Jiuxiu didn't think too much about it. Ever since she knew that Fourth Aunt was just using her, she would only refer to her former wife as his wife. Although the woman in front of her was the real head of Qiao's mansion, but she It seems that she is still the former aunt.However, although Fourth Aunt felt uncomfortable in her heart, there was still a faint smile on her face. After all, Qiao Jiuxiu was not someone she could offend.

She doesn't want to offend Qiao Jiuxiu, not so much that she can't, but rather that she doesn't want to, because in her opinion, Qiao Jiuxiu is like her backer, and she is now Ye Yulang's regular wife. If you want to get the wind in the Qiao Mansion, even among the many officials and wives in the capital, they all feel that they have a lot of face.And because of this matter, Qiao Sihai didn't dare to have any opinion on her. In short, with Ye Yulang's backing, he can do many things in Qiao's residence.

"Is there anything Auntie wants from me?" Qiao Jiuxiu cut to the chase, just thinking that she could send Fourth Aunt away quickly so that she could do her own thing, because Yingluan's affairs could not be delayed for too long, so Qiao Jiuxiu When it was decided tomorrow, the selection of maids would be carried out, and after changing Yingluan's identity, she would justifiably stay by her side.In this way, this problem can be easily solved.

The fourth aunt saw Qiao Jiuxiu's impatience. Although she was not happy, but thinking that she could only rely on Qiao Jiuxiu for the time being, she could only laugh and said, "I heard from outsiders that Ninth Miss plans to recruit some maids for Qiao's residence. I want to know if this thing is true? Or is it nothing?"

Qiao Jiuxiu sighed, this matter is naturally true, "Auntie, there is nothing wrong with this matter, I intend to recruit some maids to come in, almost half of the capital knows about this matter, you are not here to ask me this time problem."

Seeing Qiao Jiuxiu's expression like this, Si Yiniang knew that she didn't pay much attention to this issue at all.He could only laugh along with him, and continued, "It's just Miss Nine. Qiao's family doesn't have much money recently, and those maids are enough. Why do we have to add new maids? If Miss thinks that Hongxiu Jinxiu doesn't like it very much, you can tell me Said, I'll just change you a better maid. By the way, how about Ruyi's maid? Didn't you get close before?"

It wasn't for those maids who opened their mouths, and Fourth Aunt felt that she needed to go through such a muddy water for them. It was really because this matter had a certain impact on her vital interests.If the Qiao Mansion is a piece of cake, the cake is only that big now, but suddenly more people are required to share the cake. As an old man in the original Qiao Mansion, he naturally feels uncomfortable.And those new maids can actually take the position of first-class maids directly.This is clearly a violation of established rules and interests.So based on this reason, Fourth Aunt also had to talk to Qiao Jiuxiu, telling her not to be alone and insist on her own way.

Qian Ao heard this, with a faint smile on his face, as if he was still listening to Fourth Auntie, "Jinxiu and Hongxiu are both very smart, I use them very comfortably, and I'm not at all uncomfortable, isn't Auntie Do you feel that the maidservants in Qiao Mansion are definitely not enough?"

Fourth Yiniang already understood Qiao Jiuxiu's meaning, but still bit the bullet and continued, "But Miss Nine, I think the current maids are really enough, there is no need to deliberately increase the number of other maids." She He spoke very carefully, and laughed along with it, and carefully guessed what Qiao Jiuxiu was thinking.She watched Qiao Jiuxiu grow up, so she knew very well that she never had the intention of comparing herself, so she recruited maids not for the sake of Qiao's appearance.But if it wasn't for this relationship, Fourth Aunt would not be able to think of other reasons.Could it be that Qiao Jiuxiu planned to cultivate her own power secretly?

Fourth Yiniang was taken aback by her own thoughts, but she quickly regained her composure, with a touch of certainty, perhaps, she had such a plan, after all, only such a plan was in line with Qiao Jiuxiu's usual character.Qiao Jiuxiu saw that Fourth Aunt's complexion was a little pale, and she seemed to be about to say something.She knew that Si Yiniang probably thought too much, but she couldn't tell Si Yiniang about her real purpose.So, I can only let her think more.

"But, Miss..." Fourth Aunt planned to say something, but this time.Has been interrupted by Qiao Jiuxiu, Qiao Jiuxiu said with a very firm tone, "Auntie, this time the matter has been decided like this, if you want to say more, I'm afraid things will become much more difficult. Don't forget Now, I can put you in that position, and I can also let you down."

Her words are full of danger.Fourth Aunt could only nod her head, as she accepted the matter.I could only follow Qiao Jiuxiu's words and continue to ask, "So, Miss, how many maids do you think is appropriate?"

Qiao Jiuxiu really didn't think about this question, she subconsciously felt that it was enough to ensure that Yingluan had an upright reason to enter Qiao's mansion.But certainly not just one recruit, after all, many people in the capital have already known about it.And if only one is recruited, Yingluan will be placed in a dangerous place.After thinking about it, "I don't know too well, let's see how many people will come, and then choose the best ones to use. Specifically, let's talk about it at that time."

Although she said so, she did have another plan in her heart, only Yingluan was the one who had to enter Qiao's mansion, as for the rest, she had to choose carefully.Seeing Qiao Jiuxiu say this, Fourth Aunt could only sigh, she understood Qiao Jiuxiu too well, she indeed had a way to drag herself down from the throne of wife.So she couldn't do too much, and she didn't dare to do anything to offend Qiao Jiuxiu.

Qiao Jiuxiu also stopped talking, and with a faint smile on her face, she continued to admire the beautiful scenery in the courtyard.Fourth Yiniang sighed, she hoped that Qiao Jiuxiu would lose power one day, so that she could step on her to vent the discomfort in her heart.But I also hope that Qiao Jiuxiu can always gain power, so that she can always hold a very good thigh. She is very confused about this, and doesn't know what to do.

Can only retreat, Qiao Jiuxiu sighed softly, looking at the scenery of the garden, feeling a little emotional, if I remember correctly, it is already the season of cold winter, and there are more and more clothes on the body, except for the plum blossoms in this courtyard There are no other flowers besides one, which can bloom luxuriantly.She slightly sighed in her heart, since winter has arrived, does it mean that the footsteps of spring are getting closer?

At that time, the matter of the Third Prince had probably already been settled.Chu Dichen will also fulfill his original promise, take himself back to the palace, and then live a very happy life.She nodded, now it seems like a deep winter, as long as this period of difficult days is passed, then what is waiting for Qiao Jiuxiu is bound to be a bright road.Qiao Jiuxiu also felt very satisfied in her heart, so she called Jinxiu and Hongxiu over and asked her to discuss things for tomorrow.

Jinxiu and Hongxiu didn't know Qiao Jiuxiu's specific plan, but as long as it was her request, the two maids would do their best, not to mention it was just preparing to recruit maids, so they didn't take it to heart, but Qiao Jiu still reminded They must be treated seriously, and the two maids nodded repeatedly, as if they had already figured out what to do.Qiao Jiuxiu shook her head slightly, and began to look forward to what tomorrow's selection would look like.

For tomorrow's selection, Qiao Jiuxiu planned to divide it into four rounds. In order not to let others notice anything, these four rounds of competition are also things that are often used when selecting maids.The first round is a competition of basic skills, the second round is embroidery, the third round is flower arrangement, and the fourth round is mental arithmetic.Qiao Jiuxiu knew that the three rounds should not be a big problem for Yingluan. After all, she is the housekeeper of the palace, so naturally she would not leave any shortcomings in these matters, but Qiao Jiuxiu was very relieved about embroidery. .

She still remembered that Yingluan once said that it would be easy for her to kill people with embroidery needles, but it would be difficult for her to embroider with that thing.
