The concubine lifted the table, the prince was too rampant

188: Zi Jin has no intention of catching clues in the inner house. Sometimes people just fight with one breath. If Zi Jin can't forcefully hold Luo Jue down, Luo Jue won't be able to do anything wrong in the future.Because this banquet is held in the Marquis of Anshun, if Zijin really leaves halfway, it will definitely arouse people's speculation, and there will always be a few words spread out, don't say that the reputation of the Marquis of Anshun will not be good. The taint of incompetence, if Mrs. Qi hears about today's events, it will be a big trouble for Luo Jue. A young married woman would still say such shameless words outside, and Luo Jue's future situation will be very difficult. difficult.

Luo Jue only thought about it.In Anshunhou's mansion, Zijin will definitely retreat in the face of difficulties. After being ridiculed by them, Luo Jue will feel sullen in his heart, but he never imagined that their three concubine daughters would even have a concubine daughter. They couldn't hold it together, and finally ended up paying for it by themselves.Even if he crushed a mouth full of silver teeth, he could only knock out teeth and swallow blood.

Ever since they came back from the Anshun Marquis Mansion as guests that day, Chu and Shen have become more and more afraid of Zijin. Their sister-in-law is really too good. They won with one against three that day, which made them more or less heartbroken. A shadow has fallen. Generally, when you know that your enemy is extremely powerful, you will always become cautious, and you will always think extra about every step you take.

Because of this, Zi Jin has a rare leisure time, and after several months of marriage, she can finally sort out her An Yuan properly.

Anyuan is a courtyard with three entrances, and there are forty or fifty maids, big and small. When Zijin first married in, there were constant disputes one after another, and she never took the time to take care of the place where she lived and lived. reason.

Now that she has free time, Zi Jin will never allow any dangerous people around her to exist.Leaning on the lake blue ink soft pillow, Zi Jin thought about what Ye Mingxuan said, even eating carefully, if a person lives so long that he can't even eat a safe meal, what happiness is there in this day?

"Now the manager of Anyuan's small kitchen is Mrs. Wei, not the son of the Hou family, who was bought from outside. I heard that her husband and son both passed away when they fled during the famine. She is a widow. She is usually taciturn and doesn't talk to anyone. Intimacy, it's just that you have to keep your own kitchen watertight, and you are a conscientious one." Zhou's mother whispered to Zijin.

Zi Jin nodded, in fact, she also thought about it, since Ye Mingxuan has long been very concerned about food and is not worried about the food cooked in the big kitchen, he will definitely find a cook he trusts to settle in An Yuan, this sister-in-law Wei should It was Ye Mingxuan who picked him out of thousands of choices.If you don't have a child from the Hou's family, you don't have to worry about being hijacked and used. If you are a widow, you don't have to worry about someone using her family to threaten her. Ye Mingxuan really does things neatly.

Zi Jin smiled lightly, and asked again: "Then, have you checked the little girls under her in the Wei family?"

Mother Zhou nodded hurriedly, and then said: "Sister-in-law Wei looks like a boring gourd, and the old slave looks like she has an idea. When Sister-in-law Wei first entered Anyuan, I heard that there were many people stuffed into the small kitchen to help Sister Wei. , but within half a year, she was kicked out by Mrs. Wei for various reasons. Later, the newly added rough envoys were all bought from outside like Mrs. Wei. Don't be afraid to turn upside down."

Zi Jin suddenly felt sad, did Ye Mingxuan have to do such a thing by himself?How aggrieved is it for a big man to fight with a group of women in the inner house, and how much perseverance is needed to endure it?

"Didn't the eldest princess reach out to help at that time?" Zi Jin frowned, it should be better for the eldest princess to help.

Zhou's mother was stunned, hesitated for a while, and said, "I heard that the eldest princess was ill during those days."

sick?Zi Jin's face froze, but she understood in her heart, she nodded silently and said, "I see."

There was a bit of silence in the room, and white smoke rose straight from the incense burner made of white jade on the incense stand in the corner, and slowly drifted to every corner of the room.Zi Jin didn't wrinkle tightly, she didn't know what she was thinking, and Zhou's mother didn't dare to disturb her.Since entering An Yuan, Zhou's mother has become more and more distinguished.In the Yao Mansion before, Mother Zhou felt more pity for Zi Jin, but now seeing Zi Jin walking steadily step by step, the respect in her heart also spontaneously emerged.

What's more, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. She is An Yuan's nanny in charge, and she must set a good example, so that the group of little girls below will not dare to make trouble.

It took Zi Jin a long time to raise his head, nodded silently, and said: "In this way, we can rest assured in the kitchen for the time being, this Wei family, you should walk around more when you are free, the more you are such a tight-lipped person, In fact, I know more. Husband is a man after all, and he may not be able to figure out all the tricks between women. We must find someone who is reliable and can be used, and gradually become an arm, so that we can stand in this Houfu Be steady."

Mother Zhou naturally understood this truth, and said, "Young Madam, don't worry, this old slave knows what to do."

Zi Jin nodded, thinking carefully about the various news that Zhou's mother had inquired these days and gradually digested them.The personnel arrangement of the big family is extremely complicated. Generally speaking, there is a chief steward in the outer courtyard of the Hou Mansion, who is in charge of the general affairs of the outer courtyard. , kitchen, tea room, sewing room, dressing room, stables, farm, shop.Among them, the affairs office is in charge of the human relations in the mansion, and receiving guests; the secretary is in charge of the account books and money exchanges in the mansion; the attendant office is in charge of the guards in the mansion.These three places can best reflect the movements of the entire Hou Mansion.

As for these three places, Xie Li, the chief executive of the Hou Mansion, is in charge of the affairs department, Su Cheng is the chief guard of the attendant office, and Dong Hai is the chief steward of the house, and these three people are all from Ye Qingcheng, that is, Mrs. Ye. There is no way to reach out so long to move these three stewards.

In addition, Nanny Feng who is in charge of the warehouse in the inner courtyard, Guanshi Xu who is in charge of the farm, and Guanshi Chen who is in charge of the shop are all from the old lady, that is, all the public properties of the Hou Mansion are in the hands of the old lady. inside.

Nanny Jian, who is in charge of the big kitchen in Hou's mansion, Nanny Zhao who works in the sewing room, Nanny Wu who does the laundry, and Nanny Zheng who does the grocery shopping are all Du Manqiu's people.Among them, Nanny Jian and Nanny Zheng are Du Manqiu's companions, and their daughters Wei Zi and Du Juan are both big girls in Du Manqiu's house.Among them, Madam Qin, the wife's companion, is the second-class steward of the big kitchen, and Nanny Zou, Mrs. Shen's companion, is the second-class steward of the sewing room.

This mansion is complicated, and Zijin has been smoothed out, only to find out a big thing, the eldest princess did not install/insert her in any important position in the mansion. I don't know how to describe my astonishment.

At present, the Hou Mansion has four masters, Ye Qingcheng, Mrs. Ye, Du Manqiu and the eldest princess. Among them, Ye Qingcheng is in charge of all affairs inside and outside the mansion, with the most important.Mrs. Ye is in charge of the money of the Hou Mansion, and she is the Lafayette, while Du Manqiu is in charge of all the powerful positions in the inner courtyard, and can call the wind and the rain.And the eldest princess has no hair in this room!

Zi Jin stroked her forehead and sighed, she didn't know why the eldest princess did this, but Zi Jin knew a little bit how depressing it was to live under the sphere of power of others.Zijin is not afraid of them making troubles when it comes to major matters, just like when she first entered the house, Du's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law suffered a big loss when they confronted her, but at that time it was related to the future and interests of the Hou Mansion, so Zijin could naturally handle it up.But once caught in the battle between women in the inner courtyard, these things are useless, what Zi Jin should consider is how to slowly recover from such a situation.

Du Manqiu has been in charge of the inner courtyard for more than ten years, and his influence has already been deeply rooted. How easy is it to shake it?But if he doesn't divide the world here, even a woman in charge in this inner courtyard can be more respectable than himself, Zi Jin has already experienced this in Yao Mansion.

Zhou's mother looked at Zi Jin's frowning expression, and slowly persuaded: "Although things are a bit tricky, just take your time, not to mention that the most important thing for the young lady is to have a son, and then there will be a hand-eye." , but the eldest wife and the second wife don't say that the son doesn't even have a daughter, as long as Mr. Young Madam gives birth to a son, he will stand firmly."

Zijin shook her head, looked at Zhou's mother and said, "It's not wrong, but even if I'm pregnant, why don't we leave this yard? Everyone who leaves the yard belongs to someone else, you can guard against it." What’s more? What’s more, there are some people in our yard that we can’t trust. If we want to clear them out, we need an opportunity, and we really can’t rush it.”

Zi Jin has always been a person who plans ahead. He doesn't like to rush into battles when things come to an end. He is used to planning ahead and then calmly responding to battles.But looking at the layout in front of him, a sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart.

Her mother-in-law... really... really gave her the urge to hit the wall.After all, she is also the eldest princess, how can she not consider Ye Mingxuan for herself at all, and let others occupy all the important positions, so that Zijin will be bound by her hands and feet in everything she does, and she wants to find out This news is also struggling.

Ye Mingxuan went down to the yamen in the evening, and after the two of them had dinner, Zi Jin asked the maids who served her to go down, and then she talked about these things with Ye Mingxuan, and finally sighed: "I have never encountered such a difficult thing before, you Say what should I do?"

Ye Mingxuan was stunned, to be honest he was not proficient in some things, but he still said: "Which position do you want, I will get it for you."

Zijin laughed and asked, "How can you help me?" "

Ye Mingxuan said: "It's very simple, as long as that person encounters an accident and can't get out of bed, there will always be someone in her place who will take care of her, right?"

Zi Jin rubbed her forehead, felt her headache getting worse, and said weakly: "You fool, even if this is the case, can't Grandma and Mrs. Du's subordinates find someone to replace them? The worst thing is the eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law. Why? It won't be my new daughter-in-law's turn, do you understand?"

Zijin has a tendency to go crazy, but in retrospect, the days in Yao Mansion were really happy and heavenly.

Ye Mingxuan was aggrieved like a little daughter-in-law, and said silently: "I don't understand your women's affairs, why don't you just tell me what to do, what to do, and I will definitely take care of it for you."

With a heavy sigh, he said: "Let's take one step at a time. As long as others don't bully me, I can't make trouble for nothing. It depends on who can't help it first, but I think there shouldn't be trouble for nothing over there. How is life going?" It's easy to calm down and live a peaceful life for two days."

Ye Mingxuan is a big man, trying to make him proficient in inner house affairs is really embarrassing for him.In Yao's mansion, it is also Hai's who is in charge of the general affairs of the inner court, and Yao Qian is in charge of the outer court.The problem is that there is only one mistress in the Yao family, Aunt Mo, the capable aunt, and Mrs. Yao, the big Buddha. Although there have been small waves in the past few years, they have not been able to turn the big waves.

But Ye Mansion is different. The situation in Ye Mansion is too complicated. There are two main wives. Mrs. Ye currently prefers Du Manqiu. As for Ye Qingcheng... it seems that the eldest princess is more inclined now. How did this come about? The reason is that Ye Qingcheng has spent more time in the eldest princess's room than in Du Manqiu's. A man's favor is a woman's status. Although the eldest princess does not need these statuses, but...Zi Jin needs it, because Ye Qingcheng valued the eldest princess so much that no one in the mansion would show any blatant disrespect to Zi Jin.Others will not be blatantly disrespectful to you, but those contemptuous words are enough to make people want to die of shame and indignation. Thinking about how much sister Lin lived in Jia's house in the Red Mansion, shed so many tears when she heard other people's sour words , the so-called soft knife for killing is nothing more than that.

How sad it is for women, how much glory is tied to men.

Zijin always can't figure it out, her father-in-law is also a strange thing, he actually married two regular wives, at first he seemed to have a bad relationship with the eldest princess, but recently he has a strong love for a concubine, and the happiness on the face of the eldest princess can be seen Squeezing out the water, Du Manqiu can still hold back, it's a corner.

Ye Mingxuan was finally able to go down to the office early one day, how could he spend all his energy here, naturally he wanted to hug his little daughter-in-law and be tenderized by the red wave, Zi Jin rubbed his stomach and thought, this The guy worked so hard, maybe he would really get pregnant early, not necessarily.

In a daze, something suddenly flashed through my mind, grabbed Ye Mingxuan and asked: "Are you wondering why neither of Chu and Chen is pregnant? Besides these two, there are also concubines in their courtyard Yes, I haven't heard of anyone who was pregnant, it's really strange."

Ye Mingxuan didn't seem to care, he yawned and hugged Zijin into his arms, and then said: "Don't care what other people do with so many things, maybe it's because they have done too many bad things, and God will punish them."

Zi Jin didn't believe this, she put her arms on Ye Mingxuan's chest, half-closed her eyes and asked in a low voice: "Did you do something wrong?"

Ye Mingxuan frowned, then said: "You doubt me?"

Zi Jin felt the same, her family was the most arrogant, and the most annoying was this kind of dirty tricks, he didn't bother to do this.If it wasn't done by Ye Mingxuan, but the eldest and second wife have not had any children, not even a pregnant one, how can it really be a reincarnation of heaven?

Zi Jin always felt that this reason was too far-fetched, but after all, it was the matter over there, what was she worrying about, she yawned, and fell asleep with her pillow on Ye Mingxuan's shoulder, thinking that if she was pregnant first, After giving birth to a son-in-law, I just don’t know what Du Manqiu will think. I’m sure he’ll be mad. The eldest grandson is also a very precious position these days. It seems that we have to work harder in the future. We must hit the vital point when attacking the enemy, although we can’t With a seat of housekeeper in the mansion, even the eldest grandson of the husband can feel proud.

On one side, the young couple embraced each other to sleep, but on the other side, in Chengyuan, there were people who tossed and turned, unable to sleep peacefully.

Du Manqiu sat up in his cloak, his face without make-up was a bit haggard, Xie Mama heard the voice and came in, and hurriedly said: "Ma'am, why are you up? Is there something wrong with this old servant and asked someone to invite a doctor?"

Du Manqiu hurriedly stopped her, and said: "It's okay, I just can't sleep, get up and do something. Sister, sit down too, and talk to me. The night is long and I can't sleep alone. It's good to have someone to talk to."

Xie Momo's eyes were sour, she responded softly, then sat down on the brocade tree, thought about it and said: "Ma'am, Lord Hou has been resting in Meiyuan recently, you have to think of a way, don't you?" I know how it happened recently, Master Hou is like being possessed by an evil spirit, always running over there, what will happen in the future."

Du Manqiu lowered his brows slightly, and sighed softly: "What can I do? I have been taking care of this house for so many years, I have worked hard, and I have aged a lot. But the eldest princess doesn't care about everything, and she takes care of herself like a [-]th girl. If I were a man, I would I like good looks."

Xie Momo gritted her teeth and said, "If this is the case, ma'am, why don't you put the purple girl next to you in the room, so that you can always win Lord Hou's heart, and you won't be too biased. The third young master also married Daughter-in-law, but our eldest wife and second young lady have no stomach movements at all, so what if the husband over there gave birth to an eldest grandson?"

Speaking of this, Du Manqiu's expression became serious, looked at Madam Xie and said, "Mama, do you think something is wrong, the Eldest Young Master and the Second Young Master are both young and strong, and the two daughter-in-laws are also fine. Why can’t you conceive a child? Not even a single concubine has a child, isn’t it too strange?”

"This old servant has been suspicious for a long time, but he has never dared to say it. I think Madam should tell Madam to invite an imperial doctor to come and see her quietly, so as not to be tricked by someone." Xie Mama said in a low voice.

Du Manqiu's expression froze. In fact, she was a little skeptical. Heirs are a big issue. If it is found out that it was done there, she can do something conveniently.
