Rebirth of a wishful life

Chapter 51

The old lady was about to speak, but when she saw the faces of those women clearly, she couldn't open her mouth any longer. Not only did she know these women, but Nanny Qiu next to her was already The pale face, now even the slightest bit of blood is gone.

These few are all needed by Lord Shen.Think about what Shen Ruyi said just now. She said that she had already talked to Shen Houye, and she said that Shen Houye also agreed with her method of disposal.

"Old lady, I see that your complexion is not very good. Why don't you leave this matter to Ruyi? Didn't you say before that you want Ruyi and Yunrou to learn how to handle housework?" Mrs. Shen said at the right time, The old lady pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Grandmother, what do you think of the treatment method I just mentioned?" Shen Ruyi asked, but the old lady remained silent.

Shen Ruyi turned her head and waved her hands, and the mother-in-law immediately pulled the cloth out of Nanny Xiaoqiu's mouth. Shen Ruyi didn't bother, and personally said what she said just now to Nanny Xiaoqiu again. : "Look, are you going to the yamen with Housekeeper Xiaoqiu, or are you confessing to the messenger behind the scenes?"

Little Qiu's face was livid, she glanced at Qiu's mother, then at her two daughters, she really didn't know how to choose.After looking at the old lady again, she suddenly settled down, and when she was about to speak, she heard Shen Ruyi laughing again: "Don't worry, little sister Qiu, although my father doesn't like to take care of the affairs of the back house, he It's okay to go to the Yamen to say hello, but Auntie Qiu has also worked in the Hou Mansion for so many years, so I have to let the Yamen treat Auntie Qiu well."

Saying that, Shen Ruyi turned to talk to Mrs. Shen: "Speaking of which, grandma has been sick for too long. Mother, please discuss it with father later, and show grandma another imperial doctor? Is grandma getting old? , if the illness is delayed, the consequences will be serious."

One is the de facto head of a high-ranking and powerful Marquis's mansion, and the other is an old woman who doesn't know when she will die...

Little Qiu's original determination was immediately shaken, and Shen Ruyi smiled again: "If Little Qiu tells the truth, maybe my father is in a good mood and can forgive me? I think, my father is in Beijing Fu Yin should be considered a little bit of face, right? Whether it is the death penalty or exile, maybe it can help?"

That's more than just maybe, it's definitely certain and sure, Lord Shen is not the brat who cared about this and that in the past, after more than ten years, Lord Shen has become an important minister in the court!He is no longer the prince of the Hou family that the old lady can handle.

Seeing that Nanny Xiaoqiu began to waver, the old lady was so anxious that she could hardly breathe: "Ruyi, I think your previous method was very good, and Nanny Xiaoqiu has been serving you for so many years, I really can't bear it." Seeing that their family has no way out."

If Xiao Qiumo's family really died, who would be willing to sacrifice their lives for an old woman like her in the future?
"What does grandma mean..." Shen Ruyi turned around and asked, the old lady took a breath, and then continued: "If you want me to say, the things that Xiaoqiu does by herself, don't have to trouble others, just Xiao Butler Qiu, I'm afraid I don't know about it. As long as we get back the 3 taels of silver, we don't want to harm others. Aunt Xiaoqiu will send the official, butler Xiaoqiu and his two sons will be sent to the south salt mine Well, I'm afraid the girl's family can't stand the pain, and if she doesn't have to kill someone, she can just send her out."

"Grandmother, isn't this treatment too light? 3 taels of silver, if it is really dealt with like this, in the future, if anyone has learned and learned, as long as he sacrifices his own life, the whole family can live a good life. It's a good deal." Shen Ruyi frowned and shook her head in disapproval.

The old lady looked at Shen Ruyi, and Shen Ruyi looked back with a smile. The old lady's aura was really not for nothing, but it's a pity that Shen Ruyi had never seen someone with a higher status than the old lady in her previous life.

Besides, there is a sick old woman with Lord Shen's staff, is Shen Ruyi still afraid that this old woman will pounce on her and bite her twice?
"Daqiu's family also sent out. However, after all, Qiumao has served me for so many years, and suddenly changed people. I'm not used to it, so Qiumao must stay." The old lady also Said his bottom line: "Besides, I don't know people well, I didn't expect that Xiaoqiu, who was promoted by myself, is such a person, I am really angry..."

The old lady covered her chest with her hands and coughed desperately: "I want to rest for a year."

Shen Ruyi was very worried: "Is one year enough? After all, grandma is getting old. Before, there was only one Nanny Wang who was angry and sick for nearly a month. This little Nanny Qiu was the nanny in charge of the inner courtyard. Nanny is your grandmother's confidant, I am really worried about your health, I really hope that grandma can live a long and healthy life and accompany us for a long time, why don't you rest for three years?"

The old lady suppressed her anger, and a layer of frost could be hung on her face: "You don't have to worry about it. I understand my own body. One year is enough. If you are really worried, why don't I go to Zhuangzi to recuperate?" Three years?"

If the old lady were to be sent to Zhuangzi, Mrs. Shen's filial piety memorial arch would be destroyed.

"Well, as long as grandma knows what's in her heart, I'm also worried about grandma. However, grandma wants to rest, so it's not good if there is no one around to serve her. The second and third aunts happen to be fine, so it's better to let the second and third aunts come over too Waiting for you? Add my mother, sister-in-law and three people, one for one day, and I promise to be happy for the grandmother who can serve you."

Shen Ruyi said with a smile: "Although my mother has to take care of all kinds of trivial matters in the Hou Mansion and take care of you, grandma, it is much harder than the second and third aunts, but as a junior, it is necessary to respect the elders." , my mother is also very happy."

Mrs. Shen nodded hurriedly: "Yes, old lady, don't worry about my inattentive service. I've been serving you these days. I've gotten used to it and figured out your preferences. It stands to reason that I have to serve you all the time alone. The old lady should do it too, but I'm afraid the second and third younger siblings will not like it. They are both the daughter-in-law of the old lady. If I rush to finish this kind of filial piety, it will appear that the second and third younger siblings are not filial. "

The old lady glanced at Mrs. Shen, closed her eyes, and looked at Shen Ruyi again: "Just do as you say, but, although Xiaoqiu is at fault, she has also worked hard, so don't let her suffer too much. .”

After finishing speaking, he stared at Xiaoqiu for a while, and promised in a deep voice: "Just go, people always have to pay the price for what they do. Since you did something wrong, you have to admit it. You And don't worry, your mother-in-law is someone I value, and I will let people take care of your family and your children."

Little Qiu's eyes changed quickly, and she finally resigned to her fate, kowtowed to the old lady, and stopped talking.

She can weigh the weight of her own life and the life of her family.

Shen Ruyi smiled, and nodded to the women. The three women dragged the mother and daughter Xiaoqiu out, and the other one went straight to the front yard, asking Lord Shen to send someone to search the house. .

Little Qiu Nanny's family naturally couldn't find out how much money, this house raid was also done for Qiu Nanny.In the end, the money still had to be found from Nanny Qiu, and Nanny Qiu couldn't get it out, but Nanny Qiu's master would definitely be able to get it out.

Shen Ruyi took this opportunity to make calculations about those who obviously belonged to the old lady's faction and who had been very close to Xiaoqiu Nanny in the past.The determined ones were removed, the careless ones were left first, and the excluded ones were brought up.

Both Mrs. Shen and Shen Ruyi have no confidants, so they can only promote people first, and then slowly win people's hearts.As for the people that Aunt Wang had inserted in before, Shen Ruyi didn't move a single one. Now is not the time to turn against Aunt Wang, so let's let them go first.

As long as you know which ones Aunt Wang has placed, and want to deal with them, isn't it just a sentence or two?

The matter of changing people is not just a matter of talking. The person in charge of the warehouse is replaced by the person in charge of the yard. This is a big difference. Mrs. Shen and Shen Ruyi are too busy to touch the ground. Shen Yunrou came to join in the fun two days ago , Later, I don't know what Aunt Wang said or what Shen Yunrou saw on her own. In the next few days, she shrank in the yard under the pretext of illness and could not come out.

The nanny in charge of the inner courtyard did not use Mrs. Shen's people, but Shen Houye's people.The few wives that Shen Houye lent to Shen Ruyi before were all served in the front yard. After they were used up, Shen Ruyi tortured Shen Houye to leave them in the backyard.

The head chef of the big kitchen was finally replaced by Madam Zhao.In addition, because the old lady needs to rest, the three meals a day are not used by the old lady, but by each room in their own yard. The monthly payment is fixed. Who wants to eat what each day? I ordered the menu in advance and sent it over, and I made up for the excess money by myself.

Mrs. Shen went to pay her respects every morning. When it was her turn to take care of the old lady, she would stay in Changchun Garden, and when it was not her turn, she would come back and continue to take care of the house.

However, due to the presence of capable Shen Ruyi, Mrs. Shen can still spare a lot of time to care about Lord Shen.For example, making a suit of clothes, serving tea, pouring water and making soup, or going to the study to add fragrance to the red sleeves, no matter what he thinks in his heart, on the surface, he is very considerate of Lord Shen.

Of course, Shen Ruyi's handling of Xiaoqiu's family had an effect beyond imagination, and shocked ninety-nine percent of the servants in the Hou Mansion. No one dared to take Madam Shen's order seriously.Invisibly, the mother and son became much more relaxed, and they no longer had to spend their minds on directing those people.

The days are getting better, I don't have to work hard, and the married life is very harmonious, so, as expected, Mrs. Shen was diagnosed with a happy pulse at the end of the year.
