My wife is sick

Chapter 15
That night, Wei Fu tossed and turned, and took a long time to fall asleep.

The next morning, when she got up, she specially asked Yingxue to instruct the kitchen that lunch must be prepared carefully, and more dishes that her brothers and sisters like to eat.

Naturally, Yingxue dared not disobey, and went to the kitchen to deliver Wei Fu's instructions.

After breakfast, Wei Fu asked the maids to put away all the cushions on the weird benches in the room, then sat down on the bench with a frown, and said calmly: "When will the various people in the house be in charge?" Come and talk back?"

Yingxue and Yinglan looked at each other.

Based on yesterday's experience, the two of them are not too surprised to hear Wei Fu's weird order now. Anyway, this is their mistress and the wife of the Duke's Mansion. No matter what she wants to do, They just need to obey.

"Mrs. Hui, because you have been impatient to take care of the affairs of the mansion these past few years, so the people in charge of the mansion never come to the courtyard to answer questions..." Yingxue said.

"If Ma'am, you want to see the stewards, let the maidservants let them in." Ying Lan said.

Wei Fu frowned slightly.

If so, it's no wonder the servants in the mansion are so unruly.

In this huge Duke's mansion, the housewife doesn't care about the affairs, and all the affairs in the mansion are controlled by the affairs of the various places. One can imagine what kind of chaos it will be. It hasn't been messed up until now, probably still All thanks to Jiang Heng's reputation.

But even if there is Jiang Heng's shock, at most it will keep the house in order, and how many moths will breed, I'm afraid no one can say for sure.

I'm afraid, now that I am awake and want to take charge of the family again, these moths who have tasted the sweetness will be unhappy.

but……

Heh, after all, the surname of the Duke’s Mansion is still Jiang, and she is the hostess of the Duke’s Mansion. If the people below are more sensible, she doesn’t have to do everything. If there are still people who try to challenge her dignity, then they must Get ready to spit out what you eat with profit!
Wei Fu then nodded lightly, "Let everyone come over."

Yingxue and Yinglan saluted, and went to inform the management.

Today's Duke's Mansion is the General's Mansion that Wei Fu used to be familiar with. This mansion was bestowed upon Jiang Heng when the present-day sage named Jiang Heng the Great General of Zhenguo. The bloodline is not abundant, but it has never been given to any prince.

According to Jiang Heng's official title of Cong Yipin at that time, living in the house regulated by the prince was actually overstepping, but this was rewarded by the Holy Majesty. Dare to say a word.

Since it is regulated by the prince, one can imagine how big this house is. Even if you search the capital several times, you may not be able to find a few houses that are bigger than the Zhen Guogong's mansion.

For such a big mansion, even if there are not many masters in the Duke's Mansion, many servants are needed to maintain the normal operation of the mansion, and a steward is always needed for various complicated affairs.

Therefore, there are quite a lot of people in charge of the inner and outer courtyards of the Duke's Mansion.

After Yingxue and Yinglan notified the supervisors, they returned to the main courtyard to report.

And those stewards who got the news, after Yingxue and Yinglan left, they didn't go to the main courtyard immediately, but gathered in one of them's house under some kind of tacit understanding.

"Director Liu, what do you think about this matter?" One of the women, who was dressed in gold and silver and looked extremely rich, spoke impatiently first.

This woman looked at her forties, wearing a maroon dress, tidying herself up neatly, and looking extraordinarily energetic. With this appearance, no one would let anyone say that she was an old lady who was in charge of the house. I feel that it's against harmony. If I didn't know her, who would have thought that she is actually just a servant who signed a contract of prostitution?

The man called Guanshi Liu was a middle-aged man in his forties. Compared with the talking woman, his clothes were undoubtedly much more low-key. He was dressed in ordinary coarse cloth clothes, and he didn't have any accessories on his body.

Such a person seems to be seen everywhere on the street, but he is the general manager of the entire town government, and he is also the person who makes many of the managers below follow his lead.

Hearing the woman's question, Liu Guanshi smiled: "I'm just a servant in the Duke's mansion. I say that I am the manager, and I'm also the face of the masters. Now the lady wants to see us, how can I have any opinion?" , Naturally, I went to Madam to answer."

The mother-in-law who spoke first was surnamed Zhao, and she was born as a son of the Jiang family. Later, she married a man who was also a son of the Jiang family, and she was regarded as a servant of the Jiang family.

Seeing that Guanshi Liu didn't take her fault at all, Mrs. Zhao became anxious, "Guanshi Liu, you know what I mean, Madam has ignored the affairs of the house for many years, and now she suddenly called me to wait for the answer. Do you want to personally intervene in the general affairs of the mansion?"

The other stewards who hadn't spoken yet looked at each other.

Although they didn't speak, Mrs. Zhao took the lead, but they had the same idea as Mrs. Zhao. They were all worried that if Madam wanted to intervene in common affairs again, their authority would be weakened.

Even though they are also servants of the Duke's Mansion, each of them has more or less control over some affairs. Under the circumstances that the masters in the mansion don't care about common affairs, their life these years is no worse than that of some lower-level officials and eunuchs. Difference.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

Such is the case with these stewards.

Even if they know that they are just servants of the Duke's Mansion, the power in their hands is given by the master, but if the master really wants to take back the power in their hands, how can they be willing? ?

It was precisely because of this that they gathered together at Mr. Liu's place.

It's just hope that Director Liu can take the lead and lead them to put pressure on Madam.

All of a sudden, everyone stared at Manager Liu closely, waiting for Manager Liu's answer.

Being looked at by everyone, Director Liu still said just now: "This mansion is the mansion of the Duke and Madam. At the beginning, Madam trusted me to entrust me with important tasks. Now if Madam wants to take care of the mansion The common affairs in the house, we..."

Having said that, Manager Liu paused.

And the others also held their breath because of his pause.

"...Just follow Madam's orders." Mr. Liu said.

After hearing Mr. Liu's words, Mrs. Zhao and some other people were obviously a little disappointed, and they couldn't even hide it, letting the disappointment hang on their faces.

But there are also some people who look thoughtful.

Manager Liu finished speaking, and without waiting for Mrs. Zhao to say anything else, he waved his hands at everyone, "Okay, let's leave, Ma'am is still waiting for my reply, I can't make Madam wait too long."
