Chapter 153

Xu Jiaxing moved the corners of her mouth dryly, and smiled: "The third sister has always been the big sister among sisters, and no one should argue with her."

"It's fine for us to talk about some things, if we let her know, we will only be paranoid. It's like I said before that Xiu Niang's things are quite crafty. You didn't tell her these things, did you?" Xu Jiatong said .

Xu Jiaxing said: "She doesn't like to hear this, and I won't say it either."

It seemed that Xu Jiaxing had concealed a lot of things from Xu Jialan, especially after she persuaded Xu Jiaxing to plan for herself and not take risks for others.

"That's good. Open the skylight and tell the truth. We are not to be favored. Some things are nothing to the third sister, but to you and me, they can live and work in peace. I will go to the palace gate to gamble in some days. I want to teach you some weaving and embroidery methods, logically speaking, I should not teach you these..." Xu Jiatong hinted.

Xu Jiaxing immediately said shyly: "Don't worry, Fourth Sister, I won't make things difficult for you."

In fact, Xu Jiatong only intends to teach her some superficial things. If she doesn't get involved with Xu Jialan's affairs and concentrates on practicing, these things will still come in handy.

If she continued to be with Xu Jialan and said all of this, Xu Jiatong would not suffer any loss, and it would make her and Xu Jialan feel uncomfortable.

After Xu Jiaxing learned some essentials, she went back to practice by herself.Xu Jiatong looked at the way she was carefully hiding and tucked it, and felt it was funny. She had just learned to use her mind a little bit, and her embroidery skills had improved a little, so even she was wary of it.

Xu Jiaqing sat over and asked, "Second Uncle didn't make things difficult for you just now, did he?"

"You go to testify, someone has tricked you? Is it the sixth sister? Don't pretend, I've heard it all." Xu Jiatong said bluntly.

"Did you hear it? Don't tell the story. If Third Sister finds out, she won't be able to forgive her." Xu Jiaqing was soft-hearted and didn't want Xu Jiaxing to be involved.

Xu Jiatong looked at her with a bitter face, and sighed: "She is behind the attack, you go to the front. If you have the time to worry about her, you might as well worry about yourself. If it wasn't for you just now, it's okay, there is no villain who hijacked me , I naturally have a way to resolve it. In the future, don't be easily instigated by others and become a knife in other people's hands."

As if thinking of something, Xu Jiaqing nodded dully: "The old lady said that my mother is the knife in the hands of the second aunt. Fourth sister, I will definitely not be reckless again."

The next day, as soon as the sweeping servants left, it was time for the stewards of the various courtyards to report to Mrs. Lin about the previous day's affairs.Yesterday, a servant and the old concierge were beaten up in the mansion, but after one night, these stewards are still vigilant.

In the upper position, Lin's face was still a little lazy in sleep, and his eyes swept over the faces of everyone: "The mansion was originally peaceful, but recently there have been some villains who will do anything to win meritorious rewards. Now If there are more people in the mansion, there will be more places that cannot be taken care of, and it is time to clean up the rules in the mansion."

Lan Ying is the eldest maid of the Lin family. Because the steward of Ninghuitang got sick a month ago and returned to her hometown for the elderly, she temporarily filled the vacancy of the steward of Ninghuitang.She was the person next to Mrs. Lin, and everyone's eyes fell on her in unison.

Lan Ying took the initiative and said: "The rules in the mansion have always been strict. I believe that as long as everyone pays more attention, they will not cause trouble to Madam." After everyone agreed, she said again, "The fourth girl is returning for the first time, and the fifth girl is also coming back for the first time. As a guest, I see that the manpower in the painting garden is less, and I am afraid that I will not be able to serve you well, do you think we need to add more manpower?"

"Who is the servant of Huayuan?" Lin said indifferently.

"It's slaves." The two servants who were sweeping and doing chores stood up,

Lin said: "From now on, I don't have to go to work as an errand. I will send it to Zhuangzi in a while, and take care of the warehouse where the farm tools are stored."

Although the errands of the painting garden are not lucrative, but after all, they are in the Hou's mansion. It is unknown who will fill up the vacancy, or be appreciated by the master or madam.Even if they don't have both, the food in the mansion is good and the accommodation is good, and there are more money rewards during festivals and festivals.But when it comes to Zhuangzi, where the farm tools are still in charge, what hope can there be?
The two immediately begged for mercy, knelt on the ground and kowtowed hurriedly.It's a pity that Lin's house is covered with Persian carpets, which cannot be broken with the strength of these two people.

Lin took a look at Lan Ying, and Lan Ying understood and ordered the two to be dragged out.The rest of the people all tensed up, waiting nervously for Lin's next order.

"Those who don't know how to act according to their master's will deserve this kind of fate." Lan Ying muttered, although her voice was small, it was enough for everyone present at the moment to hear clearly.

Mrs. Lin didn't need to say anything more at this time, and directly ordered: "Aunt Zhen, the fourth girl was brought back by you, and you will be in charge of the inner courtyard of the painting garden. The maids brought by the two girls are also trained by you. In order not to be taken out in the future and be laughed at by outsiders, our Hou Mansion has no rules. You are a good lady, go out when you want to go out, there is no one to follow, and those who don’t know think that I deliberately ignored them. "

"Your servant must serve the two girls well." Aunt Zhen did not refuse.

After the last time she lost at the inn, Lin didn't talk to Aunt Zhen for a while, and Lan Ying often showed her embarrassment.Now that she has the opportunity to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds, even if she is not [-]% sure, she hastily accepted it.

"What's the matter with them, please ask someone to come over and talk to Lan Ying. Well, let's leave the things that are going on, and leave the rest. When there are too many people in this room, the heat won't come out. You guys follow me Go to the flower hall to talk." Lin said.

A group of people followed Mrs. Lin to the flower hall, and the rest of the people also dispersed. When they got out of Ninghui hall, many people let out a sigh of relief.Several old people in the mansion looked at Aunt Zhen sympathetically, and the smile on the corner of their mouth was somewhat inexplicable.

"Aunt Zhen has received a fat job this time. If you get a reward, you can buy us a drink." A maid named Bing'er stepped forward and looked at Aunt Zhen with a malicious smile.

"It's natural, Miss Bing'er is also willing to serve the second son, and rewards are also indispensable." Aunt Zhen's aging face was as usual with a modest and polite smile.

Although Xu Lianjue had some shops and fields on hand, Lin's management was always strict, and he had to pay the accounts every month.Apart from the monthly money he should share, there is no living money on hand.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is Lin's defense against Xu Lianjue, fearing that if he has money, he will develop his own power.Following Xu Lianjue might be better than being an errand in the painting garden. After all, there is Dai Yuanguan behind Xu Jiatong, so maybe he can make some money.

Bing'er snorted, and walked away angrily. After walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped deliberately and looked back.

"It's just a bastard who crawled into the master's bed, what a show." Bing'er articulated the words clearly, and everyone who hadn't left could hear them clearly.

Until Bing'er disappeared from everyone's sight step by step, Sister Zhen under everyone's attention didn't even move her eyelids, turned around and walked towards the painting garden calmly.
