Rebirth of a wishful life

Chapter 33

Marquis Shen brought Mrs. Shen back to the main courtyard, and Aunt Wang followed suit, entered the main room, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Knowing that Madam is coming back, the servants have already ordered the house to be cleaned up, and the things in the house are all in accordance with Madam's preferences are arranged, Madam will check to see if there is any dissatisfaction, if there is, the servant will be replaced immediately."

"No need, later you send over the account book of the warehouse. By the way, there are also keys. I will ask someone to get it for me." Mrs. Shen nodded with a smile, even if she knew that there would be such a day sooner or later. Aunt Wang still felt very congested, almost out of breath.

Mrs. Shen turned her head to look at Lord Shen: "Just now, I forgot an important thing. The things we brought back from Qingshan Town have not been given to the old lady yet. Can I have someone send them over later?"

Lord Shen nodded casually: "You can figure it out, it's getting late, let someone deliver lunch."

Aunt Wang hurriedly responded, and went to the door to give instructions. After a while, a maid came over with a food box, and respectfully arranged the dishes and chopsticks.Aunt Wang was the same as before, after washing her hands, she planned to stand behind Lord Shen to serve her.

Mrs. Shen glanced at it, but didn't care. She just concentrated on taking care of Shen Ruyi beside her as before. After taking two bites, she suddenly thought of Shen Yunrou, and hurriedly asked, "Sister, did Yunrou eat by herself?"

Aunt Wang nodded: "Yes, madam."

"Then is there someone to take care of Mingxiu? The child is still sick." Mrs. Shen was worried, Aunt Wang was a little dazed, and Mrs. Shen turned to look at Lord Shen: "The child is young, and this illness is an important matter no matter how big or small it is." Why don't you let Sister Wang go back to take care of Mingxiu for a few days? When Mingxiu recovers, let Sister Wang bring him over for me to have a look, what do you think, Lord Hou?"

Aunt Wang was a little nervous at once. Mrs. Shen is in her 30s, and she doesn't know if she will have children in the future, and Mingxiu is the eldest son of Lord Hou. What if Mrs. Shen wants to keep Mingxiu by her side...

Aunt Wang is also a smart person, she naturally understands that it is best for the child to raise the concubine under the name of the aunt.But as a mother, how could she be willing to give the child to others to be raised?Especially if you are not sure whether the person you are raising is malicious or not.

Lord Shen didn't make a sound, and after he finished eating, he said slowly, "Since I've returned to the Hou's mansion, I can't be as casual as I was in Zhuangzi. I don't eat or sleep without talking."

After a pause, he added: "As for Mingxiu, you can take a look if you want. Aunt Wang will not have to be a housekeeper in the future, so she will have more time to take care of the children." Then she glanced at Aunt Wang: "Yun Rouzi It's too arrogant, today's wife and Ruyi come back, they are her aunt and sister!"

These words were serious, Aunt Wang's face turned pale immediately, and she was about to make amends, when Lord Shen looked at her sideways: "Since I let my child grow up by your side, how to raise it is up to you. There are many, if you are not well-bred, or feel that you don't have that ability, speak up as soon as possible."

"Yes, Lord Hou, this servant will definitely do her best in the future." Aunt Wang hurriedly replied, and Mrs. Shen stopped talking, quietly serving Shen Ruyi food and rice.Shen Ruyi is growing up, although she is not half-grown like a boy, she still has to pay attention to her diet.

You can't eat anything with a strong taste, you can't eat something that is pungent, you can't eat something that is too cold, and you can't eat something that is too greasy. Mrs. Shen remembers it better than Shen Ruyi herself.

After finishing his lunch, Lord Shen went to his study. He has been in Qingshan Town for a long time, and he has accumulated a lot of business and private affairs, so he can't drag on any longer.Aunt Wang saluted, saying that she didn't dare to disturb the rest of the madam and the girl, and left in a hurry.

Mrs. Shen and Shen Ruyi glanced at each other. They were very tired after driving for several days, but they couldn't rest right now.Madam Shen felt sorry for Shen Ruyi and wanted Shen Ruyi to go to rest first, but Shen Ruyi was worried about Madam Shen and insisted on staying. Madam Shen was unable to persuade Shen Ruyi in the end.

"Chen Nanny, please go and call, let the servants in this yard gather at the gate of the courtyard in a quarter of an hour." Madam Shen turned her head and told Chen Nanny, Chen Nanny responded hurriedly, and still hadn't left yet. , and listened to Mrs. Shen's instructions: "Didn't the plaque be sent over? Later, I will invite the young men next to Master Hou to come over and help hang it up."

The old lady is a person who only talks and does nothing. She just promised to hang up immediately, then she turned around and left without ordering anyone to do the errand.Mrs. Shen has just returned to the Hou's Mansion, and she still has the impression of ten years ago. Coupled with the attitude of the old lady, no one is sure whether she can command those people.

If you can command it well, then everyone will be happy, but if you can't command it, then Mrs. Shen will be ashamed, and if you go to the housekeeper in the future, the prestige will be lost.

Therefore, Mrs. Shen couldn't try it at the beginning, she could only find another way.Fortunately, the last time Lord Shen Hou went to Zhuangzi, he brought several servants with him.Three or five people, it is impossible not to hang a plaque.

Nanny Chen responded and went out to do some errands.Mrs. Shen turned her head to look at Nanny Lu, coughed lightly and asked, "How do you think I behaved just now?"

Nanny Lu smiled and nodded: "Madam is doing very well, but now it seems that the old lady treats Madam not..." I thought it was at most a bit disgusting, but now it seems that I wish Madam Shen could die.

Madam Shen's face also darkened for a moment: "I don't know where I offended the old lady..."

Nanny Lu interrupted her: "No matter what, we are tearing ourselves apart with the old lady. Madam must pay more attention in the future, and don't let the old lady catch you. If the servant is not wrong, the old lady will soon I'm going to let you stand by the rules."

The so-called rules of standing are simply a weapon used by a mother-in-law to torment her daughter-in-law.With so many ideas, don’t think about sitting for a while at the end of the day.At night, you may have to sleep on the pedals.

Mrs. Shen took advantage of her filial piety to return to the Hou Mansion. Similarly, this filial piety was also a mountain on Mrs. Shen's body.

Madam Shen pursed her lips, her face turned pale: "Then I just need to listen to her..."

"Mother, didn't I say it a long time ago, even if you listen to grandma, how can grandma plot against us when she plots against us? Besides, if you only listen to her, then how can you give me a brother? "

Madam Shen's face turned red, and she reached out and patted Shen Ruyi on the back: "You are still an unmarried girl, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Nanny Song also glanced at Shen Ruyi, and Shen Ruyi quickly squeezed her lips to show that she stopped talking.Lu Nanny then smiled and said: "Although what the girl said is inappropriate, the truth is correct. Ma'am, we have said before that you and the girl came back to the Marquis Mansion not for yourself, but for the girl."

Shen Ruyi nodded vigorously, she had to use this trick to deal with Mrs. Shen.

Mrs. Shen glanced at Shen Ruyi, and her expression gradually became firmer. She took Shen Ruyi's hand, and said with a embarrassed smile: "I was thinking about it just now, and the old lady probably gave it to me... It's too deep. So when I saw the old lady, I felt a little..."

She was too embarrassed to admit that she was too weak, so Mrs. Shen kept it secret, and Shen Ruyi hurriedly smiled and encouraged her: "Mother, you did a good job today, even Nanny Lu said that you did a good job. As soon as we entered the door, we suppressed Aunt Wang first, so how much trouble we would have to save in the future."

She also thought about it before, showing weakness first, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, so that the old lady and the others can relax their vigilance and attack secretly.But then I remembered that the old lady would not play any tricks with them. The old lady is very simple and rude. To deal with such a person, it is useless to show weakness. The weaker you are, the more oppressive she is, and you will not be able to turn over.

Furthermore, even pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger requires capital.Just like the heroes in the storybook, they all have real skills, can save their own lives, and are sure that they will be able to turn things around, but they just don't want to show it.But what does she have with Mrs. Shen?In the Hou Mansion, there is not even anyone who can spread the news, so what qualifications do you have to hide yourself and paralyze others?
Without capital, the weaker you are, the more you will lose.

Therefore, this road will not work, they can only suppress some people as soon as they enter the door, and first get a few people to come over.With the cornerstone, are you afraid that you won't be able to build tall buildings?
Mrs. Shen smiled embarrassedly, and Nanny Lu took the opportunity to say: "Ma'am, this is just the first step. Aunt Wang is a smart person. She will not do anything that will harm the interests of the eldest house in a short time, but she must be on guard. Her son is now the only heir of the long house, so the long house's interests are her son's interests, but it will be uncertain in the future, so we must stand firm before the wife becomes pregnant."

Mrs. Shen nodded vigorously, and listened carefully to Nanny Lu's advice.Shen Ruyi sat on the side with a smile, listening and recalling the things that happened in her previous life. She said it as a guess that it might help Mrs. Shen.

"Maybe grandma will pretend to be sick and ask you to serve her..." Shen Ruyi was responsible for reminding all kinds of situations.

"At that time, Madam can't suffer alone, I have to call the Second Madam and the Third Madam..." Nanny Lu was responsible for proposing a solution.

"Hold a banquet, and when the time comes, say in front of everyone that she asked you to be a housekeeper, and then make something happen at the banquet, and all the nobles in the capital will know that mother, you don't know how to be a housekeeper anymore."

"This is also very possible. At that time, you will be able to directly take away your housekeeper right, madam. If this happens, madam can let a steward take charge of one thing. The stewards you use must pick the old lady's confidants. Son, more than half of the old lady's confidantes have to go, if nothing happens, the lady's reputation will be preserved."

"But if something happened, wouldn't it be true that my housekeeper can't do it?" Mrs. Shen was very puzzled, and Nanny Lu couldn't help laughing: "What does it have to do with you? All the things are done by the old lady's side Sister in charge, ma'am, you just returned to Beijing, and the maids around you don't listen to you."

In the last sentence, Nanny Lu deliberately accentuated her voice. Mrs. Shen blinked, thought for a while, then smiled, and nodded vigorously: "Yes, I can't even control the maid beside me."
