Rebirth of the Merchant Girl

Chapter 173
mark?

Mrs. Xie was stunned, Master Xie hurriedly took the gold ornaments, and asked someone to come over to have a look at the brocade box that was sent to Xie Ruitong, and there really was a small mark on the bottom, if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it at all.

But the items in Xie Churou's brocade box were not marked, apparently someone had dropped them.

"The Prince Regent's stuff was bought from a newly opened shop. I heard that it was made by a master craftsman himself. He likes to leave his own mark on the items so that he can clearly distinguish them from his apprentices." Xie Yanniang's words are undoubtedly true. Put aside all relationships.

She said Master Xie didn't pay attention, but she didn't intend to tell them at all.

Xie Yanniang was really good at keeping this hand, no matter who dropped the gold jewelry and wanted to pour dirty water on her, it had nothing to do with him.

Mr. Xie's face seemed to be slapped by someone in the air, and it turned red and white.

His eyes flicked back and forth between Mrs. Xie and Aunt Zeng. After all, Xie Churou couldn't leave the courtyard at all, and the people around him couldn't leave the house either. It was impossible to change their bags.

It is not easy for Aunt Zeng to leave the house, but Madam Xie is different.

Master Xie's eyes almost burst into flames, he finally got a little closer to Xie Yanniang, and she was willing to share good things with her two sisters, who knew that she would be messed up by this stupid woman.

Now that Xie Yanniang has been chilled, it will be difficult to get closer in the future!

Master Xie blushed, sent Aunt Zeng away, and personally escorted Xie Yanniang out of the yard: "I didn't expect such a happy event to turn out like this. It's your mother's ineffective housekeeping."

Naturally, Xie Yanniang didn't say much, and there was nothing else to do with her, Shi Shiran went back to the courtyard.

Xue Ling was still indignant: "Master, what do you mean by this? Listen to other people's words, and suspect that the girl's things are fake from the very beginning!"

Xie Yanniang had already seen clearly who Master Xie was, so she took precautions.But Mrs. Xie would do such a stupid thing, it can be seen that the expenditure of the mansion is too high, and it is afraid that it cannot make ends meet.

Mr. Xie bought so many goods, it is impossible to sell all of them in a short while, the money is coming back slowly, the house is tight, even if Mrs. Xie's little money is put in, it will not be able to make up for this big hole.

It is probably the same, Mrs. Xie likes to hold on, and she is not willing to admit defeat at all, so she will definitely not complain to Master Xie.

In the end, it was her who suffered.

And even complaining is useless, Mr. Xie doesn't have a housekeeper, and he doesn't know how expensive food is, he only knows how to open his mouth with clothes and hands.

If Mrs. Xie said this, he would only feel that Mrs. Xie's housekeeper was disadvantaged. At that time, the power in the mansion might be controlled by Aunt Zeng, which was not allowed by Mrs. Xie's pride.

Xie Churou was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so she insisted on stirring up trouble.But fortunately, the second sister found out early, otherwise she would be the unlucky one.

Xie Yanniang felt a little regretful, if Xie Churou found out later, the play would be much more exciting.

When she woke up the next day, she only heard that Mrs. Xie had been reprimanded by Master Xie. She originally wanted to take away Mrs. Xie's housekeeping rights, but who knew that she put it down later.

Aunt Zeng thought she could get something sweet, although she knew that Master Xie agreed to let her be the housekeeper, but there was no movement on the back foot, not to mention how uncomfortable she was, and she was happy for nothing.

Xueyan chirped and told all the things she had inquired about: "Qinglan Garden changed two sets of tea sets, which they said were accidentally broken. But the woman in the storeroom refused to let them take the new ones, and the house's budget was tight, so Aunt Zeng Take money to buy."

Xie Yanniang curled her lips, it was Madam Xie's way to suppress Aunt Zeng, no matter how tight the house was, it would not be impossible to afford a new tea set.

Xueyan said again: "Several women came in and out of the courtyard on the west side, and they brought a lot of medicinal materials from the warehouse. The slaves finally found out from a loose-mouthed woman that the ones they took out were all of the best quality. Centennial ginseng!"

Hearing this, Xie Yanniang sat up straight and sighed: "It seems that Aunt Zhang is at the end of her life, she is about to lose it."

Just when Xie Churou was about to go out, Aunt Zhang was about to die. If she just disappeared, a concubine would not make Xie Churou keep her filial piety, but it was not a good sign.

If it is delayed for a while, the Fang family will not be happy, and Mr. Xie will be very worried.

After thinking about it, he could only hang Aunt Zhang's life first and let her last for a few days, so that Xie Churou could marry into Fang's family smoothly.

"The second girl asked someone to open the courtyard door, saying that she was going to accompany Aunt Zhang, but the woman who guarded the door took a lot of effort to stop her." Xue Ling sighed. No, it sounds really uncomfortable.

"Second sister isn't worried about Aunt Zhang, she's just thinking about whether there will be a better chance of marrying into Fang's family." Xie Yanniang sneered, as long as she left the yard, Xie Churou could always find a way to get rid of this uncontrolled situation.

Xue Ling was startled, but then her heart turned cold.

"First stay with Aunt Zhang, and if there is no one left, she will have to keep watch, and then she may go to the burial and worship, and she can leave Xie's mansion." Xie Yanniang sighed, not because she thought Xie Churou too badly, but because she couldn't Thinking too well.

Xie Churou taught by Aunt Zhang is indeed more thoughtful than Xie Ruitong, but there are too many.Full of calculations, even the biological mother will not let go.

If it weren't for such thoughts, how could Xie Churou's Juren husband be promoted step by step?

It was inevitable that she, a virtuous wife, knew how to behave, was good at dancing, and planned a lot for her husband.

"If someone reveals this matter to Madam, I can't let Second Sister succeed." If Xie Churou gains power, it will be a great disadvantage to Xie Yanniang.

Compared to Xie Ruitong, she is even more afraid of this concubine second sister.

Mrs. Xie quickly sent two more women to watch over her, and sent someone to spread the word that Aunt Zhang's sudden illness would pass on to others, and she just asked Xie Churou to pray for Aunt Zhang in the yard with peace of mind.

Xie Churou almost gritted her silver teeth, her pitiful appearance had already convinced Mr. Xie that he just nodded.

It's a pity that he made a good move, but asked Mrs. Xie to give it to him, and it was a mess!

The nanny next to her has been following her closely, even Xie Churou went to the toilet. She was afraid of losing track, so she stood outside the door and waited.

She really didn't leave any mistakes and omissions. There were even people on guard outside at night, and there were women who took turns guarding the gate in the yard. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a prison.

Xie Churou looked at the Chuchu figure outside the window, knowing that this time she couldn't escape.

She clenches her hands into fists, as long as she leaves Xie's mansion and wins Mr. Fang's heart, who says she can't be successful in the future?

Xie Churou accepted her fate, but she didn't intend to just admit defeat like this!
Mrs. Xie was in a drowsy sleep, and she was woken up by Xuehui. There was a mess in the house, and she managed to arrange it. It didn't take long after she fell asleep, how could she have a temper, and a slap on the ear passed away.

Xuehui's cheeks were red and swollen from the beating, and her ears were buzzing, but she also understood the importance of the matter, and said in a low voice: "Ma'am, the maid from the west yard hurried over and said that Aunt Zhang is gone."

Mrs. Xie was so startled that she lost all drowsiness, and she quickly got up: "It's gone? It's not that people use ginseng slices to hang their breath, why didn't it take long?"

"It was originally a powerful bow. It was said that the mother-in-law randomly stuffed the ginseng slices into Aunt Zhang's mouth, and went out without looking carefully. The ginseng slices were spat out under the bed. Aunt Zhang probably didn't want to live long ago. " Xuehui sighed inwardly, in such inhuman days, it would be better to die early.

"That's right, but Aunt Zhang just died like this, it's really an advantage for her, but it leaves a lot of trouble." Xie Churou is about to go out, but Aunt Zhang is dead now.Mrs. Xie pondered for a moment, then ordered: "You tell the old woman to keep her mouth shut, don't even talk about the master's side for the time being. Let someone send some incense in first, and temporarily cover it up. After a few days, all the girls will come out. Once you close the door, just open it again.”

Xue Ling was terrified when she heard that, on a hot day, if a dead person was left in the yard, wouldn't it be a bad smell?

It's just that she still didn't dare to say much, and submissively relayed Mrs. Xie's words to her mother-in-law.

The mother-in-law kept complaining, not to mention that they also lived in the yard, guarding day and night.In the past, the guard was a living person, but now he is a dead person. Even two or three days are uncomfortable enough.

Xuehui stuffed a bag of silver and coaxed her: "It will only take a few days, I'll go and buy some tea fruit for you."

The mother-in-law weighed it up, nodded reluctantly and said, "To be honest, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat these days."

Xuehui glanced at her mother-in-law sympathetically, then looked towards the yard to the west, and avoided it far away.

She didn't want to have the bad luck of the dead, so she could only think to herself, Aunt Zhang has a good journey, die early and reincarnate early, just don't blame others.

Mrs. Xie wanted to hide it, but anyone with a nose would know that she couldn't hide it, let alone someone with a heart.

Although the yard is remote, it's not that no one passed by. The smell made people almost faint, and the woman who guarded the gate turned blue, knowing that she hadn't slept well for several days.

When Xie Yanniang heard about it, she only twitched the corners of her mouth, as if she had expected it long ago.

After all, Aunt Zhang loves her daughter dearly, and she wants to give Xie Churou a chance in whatever she says.

It didn't take long to hear that Xie Churou was making a fuss to see Master Xie again, and Xie Yanniang suddenly felt a little dull.

Good days have already been set, Mr. Xie can't get through this juncture with the Fang family, if he says he regrets it, he regrets it, not to mention his bad face, even if he offends the Fang family, it's enough for him to drink a pot.

No matter how much Xie Churou pretends to be pitiful, it will be difficult to impress Master Xie.

Xie Yanniang can understand, how can Xie Churou not know?

She didn't intend to resist anymore, she had already accepted her fate, but she didn't want to make Mrs. Xie feel better.

Last night, someone bypassed the gatekeeper and delivered a note. Xie Churou immediately burned it after reading it. Even the maids around her didn't know what was written on it.

Only she knew in her heart that this was a good opportunity.

Master Xie thought that Xie Churou would be going out in a few days, and was afraid that she would cause trouble again, so An Nai got angry.

Who would have thought that seeing Xie Churou in sackcloth and filial piety, he was so shocked that he took a few steps back at the door: "You, what are you doing, it's really bad luck, why don't you change it quickly!"

Mr. Xie was afraid that others would see it. If word got out, the concubine of the Fang family would wear mourning clothes before leaving the house. Who would dare to let Xie Churou pass through?
