Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 160 I missed it (two updates in one)

Mo Wang's eyebrows twitched, and he understood that it was him who took things for granted, or the girl was cautious and had a thorough understanding of people's hearts.

"As for loyal servants who are too loyal," Zhiruo continued, "the more loyal they are to their original master, the harder it will be to integrate into the new role."

Don't forget to nod: "I know, don't worry, big girl, I'm not good at picking people, but I still have Uncle Qiang here." This is also the reason why he thinks of looking for Uncle Qiang every time he needs to add people. Buyers have unique perspectives and experiences.Of the people selected by Uncle Qiang, after training, at least six or seven out of ten are useful and useful. The remaining three or four may have shortcomings of one kind or another, but most of them have no problems with their character. .

Zhiruo smiled in agreement. Selecting and employing people is a complex matter.Speaking of which, although the conditions of slaves in Meizhuang are far better than those in other places, the punishments are also terrible. They were warned repeatedly when they entered Meizhuang.After arriving in Meizhuang, among the many new people and the original old people, only two were found to have evil intentions. One was sold to the lowest building in the northwest after receiving thirty blows, and the other was because he had been guarded. They were trained to use crossbows, and their tongues were cut out and sold to the northwest mines. When they were dealing with those two people, Qiang Bo and Mo Wang asked all the slaves in Zhuangzi to watch them as a warning.

Regarding this point, Zhiruo and Uncle Qiang all agreed. They wanted to let everyone know that as long as they stayed loyal to their duties, Meizhuang would be heaven. Otherwise, it would be more terrifying than hell.Don't forget to say cruelly in public, disloyalty is disloyalty. As long as there is solid evidence of disloyalty, even if there is no time to cause consequences, there is no way to reduce the punishment.

Although Zhiruo was only watching from a distance at that time, he could still feel Mo Wang's seemingly innate aura of superiority, and couldn't help but think about that question again: Who is Mo Wang?What kind of experience have you had?
Zhiruo thought that there would be a big fuss when Ji returned to the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, and that the whole city would be in trouble again.Unexpectedly, everything was calm, but within two days, Qiu Yiran personally escorted Ji back to the temple.

After being stunned for a while, Zhiruo laughed dumbly and shook his head.She has the memory of her previous life, so she always relies on her memory to think what someone is like, but she forgets that many people and many things will be very different as their circumstances change.In the previous life, the reputation of the Qiu family was not so bad, and with the huge dowry she handed over, the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion could be said to have swept away the gloom and prospered. Qiu Yiran was as proud as a new noble, and the Ji family was naturally energetic and capable. Yinzi dotes on his only biological daughter and protects her in every possible way.But in this life, haha, compared with the future of her two sons, her daughter's marriage is naturally at a disadvantage. What's more, because of her involvement, Qiu Yanran's marriage is indeed difficult. It is not easy to marry into an official family, let alone Right match.

If we live in modern times, women can still leave home and fight, but this is the ancient time when the fate of parents is greater than heaven, and women follow their fathers at home, marry and their husbands. No matter how reluctant a woman is, unless she has the courage to run away from home alone (and she must be able to Escape successfully) or would rather die, otherwise you will have to bow your head.For example, whether it is the indulgent Qiu Yanran or the high-spirited Ru Xia, they can only accept it in the end.

Thinking of Cao Cao's arrival, Zhiruo was sighing at the helplessness of most women in this era, and the magpie hurried over: "Girl, Ruxia has come to see you again. The concierge said he wanted to ask for permission, but he knelt down and begged outside. , attracted many people to watch outside Zhuangzi, don’t forget that big brother has passed by, let me ask the girl for instructions.”

"Oh?" Zhiruo raised an eyebrow, "What is she doing here?" Didn't I act distant enough last time and wasn't my words clear enough?Besides, the Yin family is no longer the Zhenbei General's Mansion, and the Niu family is no longer the slaves of the Yin family. If Ruxia doesn't want to be the old man's concubine, she can't get her here.

Rudong curled his lips: "Just drive away that kind of person. Don't forget that Big Brother is also true. Didn't he say to stay away from Ruxia?"

Zhiruo shook his head and said with a smile: "Bring me my curtain hat, let's go out and see what kind of opera she wants to sing."

"You! She didn't do anything, she just asked to see the girl. How to drive her away? Let people say that the girl is cruel?" Ruchun poked Rudong in a funny way, who looked disapproving and wanted to say something, and took the magpie The curtain hat he took followed Zhiruo.

Rudong pouted, and quickly pulled Magpie to follow: "Remember, you must not let Ruxia get close to the girl!" Who knows why Ruxia is crazy today, or whether she is colluding with Ruqiu to engage in some conspiracy, she How could you not follow the girl and protect her?

At the gate of Zhuangzi, Ruxia was still kneeling, crying and begging: "Let me see the girl, let me go in to see the girl. The girl is kind-hearted and always treats me like a relative. She will not watch me die."

Ru Xia wore a cyan top, a moon-white skirt, and a plain flower hairpin today. She cried so hard that her pear blossoms were covered with rain. She, who was already so beautiful, looked even more pitiful. People couldn't help but feel pity for them, and watched. Some sympathetic men in the crowd couldn't help it: "Hey, you're crying so pitifully. Are you encountering some serious trouble? Are you asking the eldest daughter of the Yin family to come here?" "It must be, listen to her words, you should She's a slave who left Meizhuang, and now she's begging to come back." "Didn't you say that the eldest girl of the Yin family is kind-hearted? In a master-servant situation, we don't say whether we can help or not, but why are we not even allowed in?"...

Ru Xia, who was sobbing with her head down, was secretly proud. She believed that Yin Zhiruo would soon have someone come to invite her in. If he no longer wanted to see her, no matter how reluctant he was, Yin Zhiruo couldn't afford to lose face, right?As long as she enters Meizhuang, she will have a way to make Yin Zhiruo agree to help her. No matter how she changes, Yin Zhiruo will not suddenly change from that soft-hearted girl to someone who can watch her die in front of her, right?What's more, Yin Zhiruo has always been timid and hesitant, how can he not be afraid of committing an unexplained murder?She first cried and begged here, and then entered Meizhuang in full view of everyone. If she died inside, would Meizhuang be able to escape?Is Yin Zhiruo making it clear?Yin Zhiruo used to have a weak temper, but he has never been a fool. You can't understand this.

Of course, if she forces Yin Zhiruo to help her like this, Yin Zhiruo will definitely be unhappy, and he will definitely not treat her like before, but she has no choice now, right?It's better to go and be a concubine to the person who can be your grandfather.She heard someone say that there were many aunts in the Ning family, and many of them died of inexplicable illnesses.Phew, what disease did you die from?It's not like she hasn't heard of the dirty things going on in the backyards of rich families.It can be seen that the old lady of the Ning family is jealous, intolerant and very hot.What's more, the thought of serving an old man makes her skin crawl all over, and she doesn't have the motivation to compete for favors, does she?
Therefore, now that she is desperate, she can only suppress her pride and seek help from Yin Zhiruo. She will spend more time trying to please Yin Zhiruo in the future.Thinking like this, Ruxia suddenly twisted the tender flesh of her thigh and burst into tears: "Girl, girl, help me! Girl, let me in! I want to see the girl! Girl..." Yes Is she dazzled?Isn't it Yin Zhiruo who got off the sedan and came over in front?Even though he was wearing a curtain hat, she recognized him immediately.how come?Why did Yin Zhiruo come out?Shouldn't someone let her in?Could it be that his heart suddenly softened and he came to pick her up in person?
"I'm here, just tell me if you have anything to say." Zhiruo's cold voice instantly shattered the extravagant hopes that had just emerged in Ruxia's mind, and her whole heart became cold.

There was a lot of excitement all around: "Wow, is the one wearing the curtain hat the eldest girl of the Yin family? She actually came out in person?" "That's right, what did I just say? Miss Yin is famous for being kind to her servants. This is still a freed slave." "Isn't it? This old maid is also true. Don't you still know the temperament of the master you serve? She can't wait to cry here. I would like to hear what kind of talent she has. Big difficulty.”…

Ruxia, who was unprepared for this situation, heard the comments around her and became even more at a loss. Seeing Magpie directing the two women to carry a grand master's chair and place it in the door facing her, Ruchun and Rudong Then he helped Zhiruo sit down, really acting like "Let's talk here", and his hands and feet became even colder.Talking here?How to talk?Could she say those things in public?Even if she seeks death here, with so many people watching, she can't blame Yin Zhiruo. What should she do?what to do?Why is Yin Zhiruo acting so strangely now?It cannot be inferred based on common sense.

"Ageng Bo," Zhiruo suddenly turned to the concierge standing next to Mo Wang, "What did you say to Ruxia, or what did you do? Why did she kneel on the ground and cry so pitifully?"

Ageng Bo suppressed his anger and responded: "Miss, I don't know what happened. I just followed the normal rules and said that I wanted to report and ask for instructions, but she suddenly knelt down and cried. I couldn't figure it out. She did the same thing as Ru Xia. You're a big maid, don't you know the rules of a big family? Don't you know that anyone who comes to visit without a post needs to be notified first? And she has been here before, and the slaves did the same thing. She is also waiting here at the concierge, today. I don’t know what kind of evil has taken hold of me?” A slave who was kicked out, who do you think he is, that he can see the girl anytime he wants?

Zhiruo said "Oh?" and turned back to Ruxia: "Really Ruxia? When you were working as a maid next to me, I never saw you crying so much and kneeling so much. Why did you kneel after you redeemed yourself? Now? You are also Xiaojiabiyu now. Isn’t it ugly to cry and kneel in public like this? Oh, by the way, isn’t your family going to cooperate with Qingyuan Hou Mansion to open a store? That day, Damao heard on the street that your father was beaming with joy. The local people said that I heard that it is still a prosperous business. Seeing that your family is getting more and more prosperous, you should pay more attention to it."

The crowd of onlookers became excited again: "Hey, you want to do big business, so why are you looking so pitiful?" "You don't want to ask Miss Yin to borrow money to do business, do you? It's just an old servant with a bad face. It’s so big!” “That’s right, aren’t we cooperating with the Qingyuan Hou Mansion? Are we still short of money?”…

"Girl, I...I...I was too nervous. I was worried that the girl wouldn't want to see me and wouldn't let me come back to her, so I listened to Agengbo's words." Ruxia's eyes were blurred. , my head is like a mess.

She didn't know how to describe her embarrassment at this time. How could it be such a coincidence that her father couldn't help but brag with an old acquaintance and he happened to be hit by Da Mao?You know, Zuixiangfang is still in the process of looking for a fragrance master and other preparations, and has not yet announced it to the outside world. Because my father leaked the news that time, the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion also called my father to give a warning.

How much did Da Mao listen to?Have you ever heard that they make balm?Did Yin Zhiruo suspect anything?That's why he came out in person and prepared to expose her in public?

It was the first time Ruxia felt like she was being roasted on a fire. She secretly cursed herself for thinking about it so much, why did she forget about "Qixiang"?When she took out the secret recipe, she knew that sooner or later Yin Zhiruo would find out about it, but at that time she was not prepared to go back to Meizhuang and see Yin Zhiruo again.What should we do now?Apart from anything else, even if she could return to Meizhuang to be a maid, she would not dare to do so. The body contract was in Yin Zhiruo's hands. Once Yin Zhiruo knew about "Jiaoyan Qixiang", would she still have a way to survive?If Yin Zhi doesn't play his cards right now, she can't predict what he will do to her!

It was chaotic, it was chaotic, Ruxia felt that she was completely confused. She had been thinking hard these past few days, and her mind was filled with how to make her parents give up their plan to send her to the Ning family.

According to her calculations, as long as she can return to Yin Zhiruo as a maid, and get back two or two months of silver every month, she will promise to her parents that she can ask Yin Zhiruo to intercede with Prince Jing and get a place for her younger brother to go to school. , her parents would give up and sell her to the Ning family.After all, the contract of cooperation with Qingyuanhou Mansion has been signed, and Qingyuanhou Mansion cannot break the contract because of this matter. As long as Zuixiangfang opens, their family will not be short of money, so there is no reason to sell it. As her biological daughter, her parents have always valued her and loved her, haven't they?Ultimately, what can impress parents is the younger brother's future.

The most important thing is that as long as she returns to Yin Zhiruo, her parents will not be able to decide her marriage. If Yin Zhiruo is afraid of the Ning family, he dares to give her to the old man of the Ning family without being reviled and vicious. In order to curry favor with Ning, Sacrifice one of your maids?The main house of the Yin family is famous for treating its servants well.

She had made a good calculation, but unfortunately, she had not calculated that Yin Zhiruo already knew about their plan to open a shop, and that Yin Zhiruo would personally come out to "talk" to her in public; she had considered everything, but she chose to steal the I forgot about Fang Zi...

"Come back to me? Be a maid?" Zhiruo's voice was full of questions, which sounded full of ridicule to Ruxia, "Ruxia, you said that right? Or did I get it wrong? The girl from Wangpu's family. If you don't do it, go back to Meizhuang and be a maid? If I had known you were so reluctant to let me go, I wouldn't have agreed to your family's request to redeem myself. Why don't you stay?"
