Chapter 158
Ji Wei nodded when she heard the words: "Oh, it turned out to be this matter, that's nothing, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, occasional temporary defeat does not represent the final result. You don't have to worry too much, be kind to your fourth master Confidence is."

Shuyue kept looking at Jiwei nervously, for fear that she would faint. Seeing that Jiwei was so calm, she felt relieved: "What grandma said is that the fourth master is brave and good at fighting, and he will definitely turn danger into good fortune."

Mother Du also echoed: "Yes, yes, the Holy One is the destiny, and this rebel will definitely be defeated."

Jiwei saw that Shuyue seemed to be talking, so she asked, "Apart from this, is there anything else?"

Sure enough, Shuyue also inquired about other news, she said: "My servant also heard from sister Zhenzhu in the wife's room that the second aunt came back crying last night, and spent most of the night crying with the wife in the wife's room!"

"Oh?" Ji Wei said in surprise, "Could it be that the second sister cried and went to see his wife because she heard that the fourth master lost in the battle and was too worried?"

Shuyue shook her head: "Probably not. The master only found out about the news on the battlefield this morning when he went to court. It's impossible for the second aunt to know so early."

Jiwei frowned and pondered for a while, and felt that the second aunt's matter had nothing to do with her, so she ignored it and said, "Mother Du, bring me that squirrel-skin cloak."

Mother Du responded and brought the cloak, Jiwei took it, and handed the cloak to Shuyue with her own hands: "Shuyue, the weather is so cold, it's hard for you to endure the cold wind and run around. Although this squirrel fur cloak is a bit It's old, but it's still quite warm to wear, so take it back and wear it!"

Upon hearing this, Shuyue said gratefully: "Grandma, these things are what slaves should do. This squirrel fur cloak is too expensive, and a slave is really ashamed."

Mother Du smiled and said: "Since grandma rewarded you, you can continue! If you work harder in the future, it will be rewarded."

Shuyue laughed, took the cloak, and responded crisply: "Yes, servant girl, thank grandma for the reward."

At this time, daylilies also came in from the outside, warmed their hands and feet in the hut outside, and then came in to report: "Grandma, all the shopkeepers who gave New Year's gifts in the shop are here today. You see, it is according to the routine of previous years." Reward them?"

Jiwei hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Did Fourth Master meet them in person in previous years?"

Hemerocallis was recently promoted as a first-class girl, so she didn't know about it, so Mother Du interjected next to her, "Yes, fourth master usually takes this opportunity to check the accounts, and then talk to the shopkeepers, which can be regarded as a relationship. "

Jiwei smiled and said, "If that's the case, then let me meet them this year!"

Mother Du hurriedly persuaded: "Girl, it's cold outside, you'd better not go out. It's snowing again, the ground is so slippery, you have to be careful!"

Ji Wei stretched her waist and said: "Sitting in this room every day, my bones are almost stiff, and I should walk around. Besides, I just walk from the corridor to the flower hall, and I don't go to the snow. in the way."

Mama Du knew that Jiwei couldn't be persuaded, so she had to take out her dark purple makeup flower forged fox fur cloak and put it on for her, and put on a scarf Jiwei woven herself, and put a hood on her head. Wrapped Jiwei tightly, then personally supported Jiwei and walked along the corridor to the flower hall.

Not long after Jiwei sat down on the yellow rosewood chair in the flower hall, the shopkeepers came in and kowtowed to Jiwei through the large foldable screen carved with red sandalwood and inlaid with longevity characters.

Ji Wei hurriedly raised her voice: "The shopkeepers don't need to be polite, please get up!"

Although the shopkeepers knew that the fourth master had delegated power to the fourth grandmother, it was the first time they met the fourth grandmother, and they were a little curious about the mistress.However, they all kept to their duty and did not stare at the screen.Shopkeeper Sun of Yuman Pavilion was the oldest, so he stepped forward and said, "Fourth grandma, these are things that our shopkeepers honored you, please accept them with a smile. In addition, the account books of our shops this year are all here Yes, please check it out."

Jiwei nodded, and Mother Du went behind the screen and took all the account books.

Jiwei looked through the account books and saw that they were in good order, so she didn't look at them much, and said, "The shopkeepers have worked hard this year. You are all old people who follow the fourth master, and the rules are clear. Now the four Master is not at home, so everything will be done according to previous years. If you have any ideas and opinions, or encounter any difficulties, you can tell me. Although I am just a woman, I can give some ideas. "

The shopkeepers looked at each other because they couldn't figure out what Jiwei was thinking, and they all agreed.

Ji Wei said again: "Since the shopkeepers have nothing to say, please sit down and have a cup of tea before leaving. It's too cold, you should also warm up. Also, I have some good spices here, and I also If you don’t like to use it, shopkeepers should take some back.”

After Jiwei finished speaking, she walked away slowly.As soon as she left, girls came to serve tea to the shopkeepers.The shopkeepers originally thought that Grandma Fourth was going to beat them up, but they didn't expect to let them go so easily.

Shopkeeper Zhao of Jinyifang saw Shuyue who came to investigate, but his eyes lit up.He waited for Shuyue to go out, put down his teacup and followed her out quietly.

Shopkeeper Zhao quietly stopped Shuyue, and said, "Miss Shuyue, I brought a high-quality weaving flower today, please accept it."

Shuyue was not stage-frightened either, she raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Hey, shopkeeper Zhao, I won't be rewarded for nothing, so I dare not accept your gift."

Shopkeeper Zhao rubbed his hands, and said: "It's almost Chinese New Year now, Miss Shuyue should also make good clothes for herself. Miss Shuyue has worked hard in serving the master, and occasionally helping me to say a word in front of the master, that is my blessing Yes. So, I ask the girl to accept this little trick today."

Shuyue frowned and said: "Could it be that you have made some mistake and you want me to cover it up for you? Let me tell you, I will definitely not help you deceive the master."

Shopkeeper Zhao waved his hands again and again: "How could it be? I am the most loyal person to work for the master. Miss Shuyue, take this heart to heart! I am just afraid that the master will replace me with someone who is more capable, so I will do it for you. Say hello to Miss Shuyue first, and ask Miss to help me speak nicely in front of my master."

Shuyue was a little skeptical, but still accepted the weaving flower.She said: "Since that's the case, it doesn't matter if I give you some good words for you, but if you make a mistake, then I will never help you."

Shopkeeper Zhao said repeatedly: "That is, that is."

Shuyue returned to the main room, and immediately took the zhihualuo to report to Jiwei.Jiwei took a look at the Zhihua Luo, and said, "This is a good thing, but shopkeeper Zhao is really willing to part with it."

Shuyue said anxiously: "Grandma, does shopkeeper Zhao have some bad intentions?"

Ji Wei thought for a while, then pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Bad thoughts, it shouldn't matter. Anyway, you should get in touch with him more and check his conduct! If you find anything wrong, come and report it to me."

Shuyue quickly responded.

Mama Du next to her was holding back her laughter.This silly girl, shopkeeper Zhao is not trying to play tricks, I'm afraid he's taken a fancy to her!
Another day passed in a blink of an eye.While knitting a sweater for the baby, Jiwei chatted with the girls.Mother Du hurriedly opened the curtain and came in, and said happily: "Miss, happy event, the master is here to see you!"

Ji Wei was a little unresponsive, and said in surprise, "Who came to see me?"

Mother Du explained: "Your father, Master Su Er has gone to Beijing, and now he has made a special trip to see you!"

Jiwei stood up excitedly: "Really? That's great! Where is my father? I'll see him right away."

Mother Du reassured: "Miss, don't worry, the master is still at the uncle's place now, and he will probably come later. Take your time, there will be time."

Ji Wei stood there, her heart pounding.The second master Su is probably Jiwei's closest relative besides Beibei.She originally thought that she would go back to Su Zhai to see him after he went to Beijing, but she didn't expect him to come to see her first.This loving father's heart is really touching.

However, Master Su Er is Jiwei's father after all. When he sees her, will he find that she is not his daughter?
Jiwei walked up and down in the flower hall a little impatiently, looking outside the flower hall from time to time.Beibei followed her, hugging the fat rabbit named Xuetuan with some difficulty, and asked curiously: "Mother, what kind of person is grandfather? Would he like Beibei?"

Jiwei smiled and said, "Your grandfather, he... is a very kind person. Don't worry, he must like Beibei."

Mrs. Xu also spoke from the side: "Yes, sister Bei is so good, how could anyone not like it? Come on, give the snow ball to the nanny, it's heavy to hold this!"

Sister Bei glanced at the snow ball reluctantly, and handed it to Mrs. Xu obediently.

After Beibei was washed by the little girl, Shuyue walked in excitedly and said, "Grandma, here comes, Second Master Su is here."
