Chapter 49 Li Wei
"It seems that being Ning Xixiao's wife is not a good thing, and her life is not as good as being a concubine of a rich family."

"The lord has never held them back in terms of money. It's just that the wives are sympathetic to the lord and are thrifty in managing the house."

"It's nice to say, so do I have to be sympathetic to the prince and manage the house frugally?"

"Uh... the princess is the main concubine, so it is naturally different. The prince has specially instructed that she will try her best to satisfy whatever the princess wants."

At this time, a maid came in and asked Uncle Xu: "Mr. Xu, my wife asked me to ask. Seeing that autumn is almost here, are you ready to wear this year's autumn clothes?"

Seeing that it was Li'er and Huanying's personal servant girl, Xu Bo was about to answer, but he thought that she was now the concubine's housekeeper, so he said to Jin Yan, "Princess, within one month before each season change, we have to prepare for the three wives in advance. Prepare your new clothes, so Li'er asked."

Jinyan sized up Li'er, but the maid raised her head and held her chest up without fear of Jinyan's sizing up.Heh, it seems that Huanying is imposing enough that her maids do not show weakness.

"Since these are all common practice, why is Second Madam anxious, come over and ask, Mr. Xu is considerate in handling things, how could he short Second Madam." Unexpectedly, Yang'er spoke first, and her tone was not very good.

Jinyan is a little puzzled, Yang'er is timid, since she followed her, she has become more courageous, but she is not unfriendly to others, why did she get into a fight with Li'er, could it be that Li'er took advantage of Huanying's backing , Have you ever bullied Yang'er?

"Mr. Xu is naturally considerate, but now I have to teach the princess how to manage affairs. There are more things. I am afraid that I will forget them for a while. The second lady has been in charge of the palace and knows the affairs of the palace, so she sent me Come and ask, if Manager Xu forgets for a while, he can remind you." Li'er said without showing any weakness.

Oh, is this underestimating people?Come to show off so soon?It seems that there is no trick.

Jin Yan smiled slightly, and said: "Second Madam has been housekeeper for a while, it's really hard work. Now that the burden has been relieved, and I still care about it wholeheartedly, Li'er wants to thank Second Madam on my behalf. At the same time, I would like to ask Second Madam to rest assured that these Things don't bother me. Uncle Xu, what is the standard for each wife's new clothes in the past?"

"My lord doesn't have a hard and fast rule. Each wife can let me know the number of pieces I want. As long as it is within a reasonable range, my lord agrees. This time, the eldest lady asked for six pieces, the second lady asked for eight pieces, and the third lady asked for eight pieces. The madam has requested four pieces, and I have asked the tailor to make them according to the requirements of the ladies. They will definitely be handed over to the ladies before the fall."

Li'er smiled smugly, as if she was saying, "I'm still saying these things won't bother you, why don't you ask Butler Xu."

Jin Yan didn't take her performance seriously, and deliberately frowned and said: "Oh, the harvest of our palace is not good this year, I'm afraid we will have to shrink our expenses. Anyway, autumn is passing fast, and we don't need so much clothes. , it is enough to make four sets of dresses for each lady, and I set an example, and I also have four sets. Uncle Xu, you should tell someone to change it."

Except for Jin Yan, the rest of the people present were very surprised. Uncle Xu reacted the fastest. No matter what, the princess has the final say in front of everyone, and he will give orders immediately. Anyway, he will report to the prince afterwards.

Li'er said dissatisfiedly: "Princess, the prince never limits the expenses of the wives, and as long as eight pieces are not too many, why do you have less clothes when you are in charge of the house?"

Uncle Xu was about to reprimand Li'er, but Jinyan shouted first: "Didn't you hear what I said just now?! The harvest of the palace is not good this year, and the money is naturally less than in previous years. Under such circumstances, does the madam need to spend more of the prince's money? I Just like the ladies, as long as there are so many clothes, I don't think I'm short, do you have any objections? How about sharing my clothes and giving them to the second lady?"

What Jin Yan said was extremely severe, very demeanor of a hostess.Seeing that the princess was angry, Li'er immediately begged for mercy: "Your maidservant dare not, my maidservant dare not, my maidservant is just confused for a moment, so I just said this, please forgive me, my wife, and I have absolutely no intention of offending my maidservant. My maidservant, please forgive my maidservant." .”

 The heroine is handsome and powerful, applause!
