Rebirth of the Merchant Girl

Chapter 195
"Miss Xie, it's just how should this nanny serve her?" She couldn't beat her or scold her, and she looked thoughtful, and she was still a person from the palace, Xue Ling frowned and her face was full of distress.

"It's just good food and good food. The nurturing mother doesn't necessarily have to teach anything, it's just a good reputation. I guess that Zhang mother didn't want to tell me what to do, but just wanted to get closer to me. From Buy a few smart maids outside the house, with quick hands and feet, and the most important thing is to have a sweet mouth, take good care of the nanny, treat people as honored guests in the Zhuangzi, and don't neglect them in the slightest, remember?"

After Xie Yanniang finished speaking, Xue Ling quickly responded.

She thought about it again, and said with a smile: "Eat, live, and wear clothes, as fine as you can. If the accountant is in trouble, don't overdo it, just stick to the thoughtful person in my makeup box, and don't let others know. "

Xue Ling nodded, and soon went out to make arrangements.

The newly bought maid brought it to Xie Yanniang, and she was very satisfied after seeing it.They all looked clever and winking, and Xue Ling deliberately picked them from bitter families.

These servant girls have nothing else but good eyesight, and they are very good at flattering people, they just open their mouths to coax people.After all, she was born in poverty, so being a maid is a helpless move.But if you do well and are appreciated by your master, you can get rid of the current predicament. How can you not use all your strengths to handle the errand?

Xie Yanniang nodded, and a group of six servant girls sent all of them to Madam Zhang's yard.Before sending it off, she glanced at the maidservants, and said slowly: "No matter what you think, Nanny Zhang is a distinguished guest in the Zhuangzi, if she is not satisfied at all, the six of you will be replaced. Ren Yazi has a lot of maids, and it doesn't cost much money to change them. As for those who are kicked out of the house, what will happen to them, needless to say, you also know."

She was preventing a few servant girls from dragging each other down in order to show their faces in front of the master, which would actually ruin her own affairs.It's better to make it clear at the beginning, so as to save trouble later.

A few maids responded tremblingly, and the little thought of wanting to be the best among the crowd has long since dissipated.

Xie Yanniang ordered a few thin sheets of paper on the table, and said: "Nurse Zhang is a celebrity in front of the Empress Dowager, and she will go back to the palace sooner or later. If I have the heart to go back to the palace with my mother, I will not It hinders your future. Just don’t blame me for not reminding you, being in the palace is not as comfortable as being in the mansion, if something goes wrong, not only your own heads, but also the heads of the nine clans will be lost.”

After beating with a stick, she naturally had to give some sweetness: "If it is done well, I will not be stingy, and I will pay the dowry when you go out."

The maids were taken aback. The dowry meant that they were not allowed to be concubines, let alone a random servant, but to be married to be the wife of the house?

With a humble background, who can not be tempted by this.

They had some calculations in their hearts, and Xie Yanniang took the deed of sale and went to Madam Zhang. No matter how powerful this mama is, she will always be a distinguished guest in the house. She is a guest, and she will leave sooner or later. Three girls.

Everyone looked more submissive, Xie Yanniang was satisfied and waved them away.

Xue Ling is indeed good, the maidservants selected are smart, but they can understand each of them.

Xie Yanniang was even more satisfied when she heard about the yard arranged for Madam Zhang.

It is the farthest from the gate of the mansion, if you want to send someone out, you have to go through several courtyard gates, it is impossible for no one to notice.

But it is also the farthest away from the corner gate, so it is impossible to sneak out of the house to deliver news.

It was on the other side of Ruan Jingxin's study room, separated by Xie Yanniang's yard.If Grandma Zhang wanted to disturb her in the study, Xie Yanniang would be the first to know.

Not to mention that the six maidservants put all their energy into showing courteousness in front of Mammy Zhang, serving them extremely meticulously. No matter how busy they were, there would always be two of them left by Mama Zhang's side to wait.

If Madam Zhang had the intention to send them away, the maids would kneel down one by one, wondering where the service was not thoughtful, with a look of panic, so there was no reason for them to be kicked out.

Xie Yanniang smiled, went to the yard every now and then to exchange greetings with Madam Zhang, and beat the maids in front of her.

"This is a freshly made jade ornament. I saw that it was in good condition, so I sent it to the nanny. It's good to play with it." Xue Ling behind her put the brocade box on the table, and opened it carefully.

Inside are two pairs of jade bracelets, the green color is about to drip, and the water head is very good, even if the empress in the palace wears it, it is also a very dignified thing.

Madam Zhang was stunned, and said in fear: "Girl, this gift is too expensive, how can this old slave accept it."

"Mommy is out, it's just a small thing. If you like it, you can enjoy it for a few days. If you don't like it, you can just give it away. I have a lot of them at my place. Someday I will pick a few good ones and send them to Mommy." Xie Yanniang continued. Looking at her, he frowned and said, "Turn back and let Xiu Niang come over and cut some clothes for the mother to replace."

Before Madam Zhang refused, Xue Ling had already gone out to give orders, so she could only be grateful with a low eyebrow.

The embroiderer hired a very famous female master with first-class craftsmanship, and she seldom does it herself.This time, for the Prince Regent's sake, he specially made clothes for Madam Zhang.

Given a rare opportunity, Xie Yanniang asked her to make eight pieces in one go, using high-quality materials and embroidering them with gold and silver threads, which made Xue Ling's eyes straighten.

She was holding the clothes, the embroidery pattern on it was lifelike, one could tell how much effort it took to embroider it, not to mention that it could be worn in reverse, the famous double-sided embroidery, my girl is really a big hand, she couldn't help asking in a low voice : "Girl, do you need to be so generous to a nanny in the palace?"

Xie Yanniang looked at the makeup box which was almost half empty, and sighed: "People in the palace are all bullying and trampling on the low, so don't be negligent, otherwise with one mouth, the mouth moves up and down, and the dead can be said to be alive, upside down Right and wrong are the most powerful. Since Madam Zhang was served by the Empress Dowager, and she has a different status, she should treat her well. After she didn't have to go back, she thought the regent was dissatisfied with the emperor, so she was very rude to Mama."

She didn't even look at those clothes, and said: "The rest of these go to make some gold bracelets. They look small, but they have to be made solidly. They are so light that there is no sincerity."

Seeing Xue Ling's disapproval, Xie Yanniang shook her head and said: "Don't underestimate these villains, they may be just slaves in the palace, but they can speak well in front of the master. killed us."

So I would rather offend noble people than easily offend villains.

As soon as Xie Yanniang finished speaking, there was a little boy at the gate of the courtyard who brought a hand-sized brocade box, saying that it was for the regent king.

With Nanny Zhang watching, she didn't dare to meet Ruan Jingxin casually like before.

I am used to eating with others, but now I eat alone, it always feels less delicious.

Xue Ling presented the brocade box, Xie Yanniang opened it and was stunned.

Inside was a box full of silver bills, and counting them carefully, there were more than a few thousand taels, which was really a big deal.

Opening the next layer, there are a lot of gold bracelets, there are four pairs in total, all of them are solid, and when you hold them in your hands, they are heavy.

Xie Yanniang stared at the brocade box and sighed.What she was thinking, the regent seemed to be able to guess, should it be said that the two had a good understanding?
Most of the nuns in the palace are unmarried old girls who have survived to this age. Because they have no children, the clansmen have gradually drifted away, and only money is particularly important.

People always have a soft spot for things outside of themselves, and this Nanny Zhang is no exception.A real large amount of money was poured down, so I am not afraid that Nanny Zhang will play tricks in front of the empress dowager and the emperor.

In order to cover up what she accepted, Madam Zhang would only say a lot of good words, and would try her best to dispel the empress dowager and the emperor's fear of the regent.

A king regent who spends so much effort to please the nanny in the palace is loyal to the royal family, otherwise how can he deal with such a small person?

Nanny Zhang felt at ease, and the empress dowager and the emperor felt even more at ease. Everyone was really happy.

Xie Yanniang looked at the brocade box again, Ruan Jingxin guessed what she was thinking, did she acquiesce now?

She also thought that her body was always limited, but fortunately, with the support of the rich and powerful Prince Regent, she could let go of it.

Madam Zhang did not expect that a merchant in Xie's mansion would teach such good-looking girls, and all the gifts they sent were high-quality goods, and even the silver notes in the hidden compartments at the bottom of the jewelry box were quite pleasing to her.

The little girl who was originally thought to be raised by a little mother and was rejected by Xie's family, is indeed like what the empress dowager said, she really owes her upbringing.

Looking at it now, it seems that everyone has lost their eyes, but the regent king has a good eye for knowing people, and he found such a dusty pearl right away.

Nanny Zhang accepted the brocade box with a normal expression. The gold bracelet was heavy and solid gold. If she hadn't had a maid by her side, she would have happily bitten a bite with her teeth and slept with her in her arms at night.

Compared with elegant jade, she prefers these yellow and white things.

Every time Xie Yanniang went back to the courtyard, the smile on Madam Zhang's lips deepened a little, and she understood that she was very satisfied with those expensive gifts.

It's good to be satisfied, it's not in vain for her to spend so much silver taels, although she failed to completely win Madam Zhang over, at least her heart has been biased.

It's just that the days passed quickly, and Xie Yanniang secretly began to worry.

Everything else can be prepared as soon as possible, but the wedding gown has to be embroidered stitch by stitch. It can't be sloppy. Even if she doesn't eat or sleep, she can't embroider the wedding gown before she gets married.

Xue Ling knows a little bit about female celebrity, but not proficient enough.Not to mention the younger Snow Goose, who can only mend small things, and it can't help at all if it is embroidery.

The wives and daughters of the soldiers below may be able to embroider, and they are trustworthy people, who work day and night, and may be able to drive them out.

If someone from outside the mansion is invited to be an informant, someone with a heart must plant a few eyeliners inside, making Zhuangzi unstable and causing trouble for the regent.

After thinking about it, Xie Yanniang planned to marry Ruan Jingxin.
