prisoner in the door

After the two of them fought for a while, Guanshi Yuan left. Before leaving, the nanny gave some instructions.

"Remember to come back early tonight!"

Steward Yuan replied with a smile, and then disappeared.

After the person left, the smile on the mother's face stopped, and she gave a glance to the maid who was going to open the door, and the little maid came to Mo Zhenzhen and Su Xiaozhen with a smile.

"The two younger sisters have just arrived, so there must be something they don't know. Come with my sister, and my sister will teach you well."

The little maid was smiling, but her actual tone was not that good. After she finished speaking, she twisted her waist and went out first.

Mo Zhenzhen followed the little girl obediently, Su Xiaozhen was not convinced and took a step back, complaining that Mo Zhenzhen was spineless while following.

After leaving the house, the little maid took the two of them another two steps, and found a shaded place to stand still, and let them hang out in the sun.

"It's a blessing for you two to be able to enter our Qiao's house. Don't have any unreasonable thoughts. Some people are not something you can curry favor with. Do things well, serve the master honestly, and do your duty well."

The little maid rolled her eyes, and there was a bit of meanness on her delicate face.

She took a breath and was about to continue talking when Mo Zhenzhen took out a silver ingot from her sleeve.

It was a silver ingot of five taels, and as soon as the silver came out, the little maid's eyes were glued to the silver ingot, and she choked back what she was about to say.

It's easy to do things with money, and a silver ingot of five taels fell into her arms, and a smile appeared on the little girl's face instantly.

Putting the silver ingot into her arms, the little maid spoke in a gentle tone.

"You two sisters seem to be duty-bound people, and the master is not such a mean person. As long as you work hard in the mansion, the benefits in the future will definitely be indispensable to you, and your good days will always come."

Mo Zhenzhen answered the question with a smile.

"Our sisters are also hard-working people. My parents died early, and my sister and I grew up dependent on each other... I don't know what to call this sister? We just came to Qiao's house, and there are many things we don't understand. We are afraid that we will offend someone..."

Doglegs (Su Xiaozhen rolled her eyes silently while complaining in her heart behind Mo Zhenzhen).

"My name is Xi Niang. I should be one or two years older than you. I am seventeen this year. Our Qiao family doesn't have so many rules. You just need to do your part. The master and wife are kind people."

Mo Zhenzhen nodded, as if she believed it.

"My sister and I heard about the kindness of the master and his wife when we entered the city. I heard that the master is a great kind person, and the wife is the daughter of the Shen family."

The expression on Xi Niang's face became subtle after hearing this.

"Who told you that my wife is Miss Shen? Our wife's surname is Cui, and she came from a farming family." When talking about this, Xi Niang even flashed a look of contempt on her face.

Mo Zhenzhen acted as if she hadn't seen this scene, and acted like she had suddenly realized it.

"So that's the case. It seems that I heard it wrong. Sister Xi Niang, who is the nanny inside? What does she care about? What's the relationship with Yuan Guanshi?"

"Speaking of Nanny Qiao, she is one of the nuns in charge of the inner courtyard, in charge of the warehouse, laundry, evening scent and other filth. Madam promised her to Steward Yuan."

This is not right.

Before Yuan Guanshi talked to that nanny, he meant that Qiao Nanny should be someone else, but now Xi Niang said that that nanny was Qiao Nanny.

Would Guanshi Yuan not know Nanny Qiao?
In other words, would Manager Yuan admit his wife by mistake?
The expression on Mo Zhenzhen's face remained unchanged, as if she hadn't noticed the clue, she started to ask the second son again.

Speaking of the second son, Xi Niang's face was a little more ashamed.

"Second young master is a good-looking person who is still a scholar, and he will definitely be able to obtain fame in the future. He is a rare good man." After finishing speaking, Xi Niang gave Mo Zhenzhen and Su Xiaozhen another look with envious eyes, and then said.

"You are also very lucky. It just so happens that the Second Young Master still lacks two maids who teach personnel affairs. In the future, you will become the Second Young Master's roommates. When the Second Young Master obtains the honors in the exam, you two will rise to the top. If you can give birth to a son and a half daughter before the second wife enters the door, it will make sense for you to be raised as concubines. At that time, you will also be regarded as half masters of this mansion."

Su Xiaozhen curled her lips when she heard this, with an expression of wanting to vomit.

Mo Zhenzhen's complexion did not change, and she even smiled better.

"I'd like to borrow your good words." With such a dry sentence, it can be seen that even if Mo Zhenzhen didn't show it on the surface, she was completely speechless by what Xi Niang said.

However, Mo Zhenzhen's psychological quality is strong, and she quickly adjusted, and then she leaned closer to think about it, and asked again in a curious voice.

"I heard that Master Qiao married into Qiao's family?"

After all, after giving the money, Xi Niang was in a good mood, so she also said in a low voice.

"You can't talk nonsense about this, the master doesn't like to hear it. But the master in the mansion is indeed a married man, and this wife is not the original wife."

"What about the original wife?"

"What else can I do, I'm dead."

"Then, can the ex-wife leave behind a man and a woman?"

The little maid shook her head, and she also looked very sorry when she said this.

"The fate of the ex-wife is not good. She hasn't conceived after more than ten years of marriage. If she can give birth to a boy and a half girl, the Qiao family's fortune will not be able to fall on the current master."

When Xi Niang said this, she had a strange expression, as if she was saying that there was something hidden in it, but when Mo Zhenzhen wanted to ask more questions, Xi Niang interrupted the topic.

"Okay, the Second Young Master is short of people, so you should take care of it too. Don't spend all your time on gossip. We are servants, and the most taboo thing is to talk about the right and wrong of the master's family."

Xi Niang said these words in a righteous manner, which was quite different from the gossiping Su Shi just now.

The change was a little faster, but Mo Zhenzhen still lowered her head, pretending to be taught.

"Sister Xi Niang said that we sisters must take good care of the Second Young Master."

Xi Niang gave an 'um' with her nose, and then a crisp female voice came over.

"Xi Niang, when did you become so careless, you only taught two newcomers, but you are so procrastinating, you are guilty of delaying the mother's work."

There were no footsteps.

She didn't hear who came, which made Mo Zhenzhen more vigilant.

Xi Niang actually laughed at this time, with a smile on her face, but there was a needle in her words.

"Sister Lanhua is in a good mood today, why are you taking care of my business? Or did Sister Lanhua hear something and came to visit us specially? But don't worry about Sister Lanhua, she grew up with the Second Young Master, and her status in the Second Young Master's heart is different. Even if the Second Young Master has girls who teach people, these girls can't surpass you."

The girl called Orchid spit on the ground after hearing this.
