Chapter 81
In Yuan's room, Mama Rong was reporting to Yuan's big news that she had just heard - in order to sleep with Qiuxiang, the prince spent 100,000 yuan to do business for Qiuxiang.
"Madam, who did you hear about this? Are the servants who are randomly arranged and checked for me and checked it carefully! Who gave them such a courage to gossip around?" After hearing Madam Rong's description that was jealous, Yuan did not believe it at all.
As the mistress of the family, Yuan's family was handled by her. Not to mention the expenses of 100,000 yuan of treasure money, she would review them one by one.
"Madam, this matter has spread throughout the mansion, it happened last night!" Mama Rong said in an unquestionable tone.
"Why didn't Yun Rui report to me when he came here to pay his respects in the morning?" Yuan still didn't believe it.
"Madam, how can the prince be embarrassed to speak up in such a thing?" Rong Mama was a little angry. She worked hard in the Duke's Mansion for half her life and had never seen a hundred thousand treasures. Why can Qiuxiang, a little girl, win the favor of the prince?
After hearing this, Yuan took a breath of air conditioning and frowned.
"Madam, Qiu Xiang is so big and small, she simply takes the rules of the mansion as a decoration. This is related to the dignity of the Duke's Mansion. A little girl with no hair is grown, she rode on her master's head to shit and urinate. She simply doesn't take you and the Duke seriously..." Mama Rong said with an indignant look on her face.
At this moment, a girl walked in from outside the door, gave a gift, and said, "Madam, Mr. Sun, the accountant in the front yard, asked for a visit, saying that she would ask her if she had something to do."
After hearing this, Yuan frowned, a little confused.
"Madam, Mr. Sun is here, I will guarantee that for the 100,000 yuan thing!" After hearing this, Mama Rong said in a low voice in Yuan's ear.
When Yuan heard this, his heart sank and said, "Please come in!"
Soon, under the guidance of the maid, Mr. Sun entered the room where Yuan lived.
After Mr. Sun greeted Yuan, he spoke, "Madam, just now the craftsmen Liu Erlei and Hu Gang gave the prince a note and said that they would withdraw 100,000 guan of treasure money. Because the amount was too large, I dare not make a decision without authorization, so I came to ask my wife for instructions."
When Yuan heard this, he suddenly felt that the five thunderstorm had hit him. When did his son become like this? For a maid, he actually took out 100,000 yuan.
Seeing that Yuan's face was not good, Rong Mama said, "Madam, you can't let the prince make such a mess! A few days ago, the prince drove the housekeeper away. Yesterday, she brought a group of shameless brothel women back. Today, she was planning to use so much money to do business for the maid. If this spread, the Duke Cao's mansion really became a joke in Nanjing!"
Mr. Sun stood aside with his head down. After listening to Rong Mama's words, he agreed! He and Li Daliang worked with Duke Cao's mansion for many years and knew Li Daliang's character and temperament very well. He absolutely did not believe that Li Daliang would steal the bellyband of a brothel. If Li Daliang was willing, there would be many maids and old mothers in the mansion willing to recommend themselves to serve Li Daliang.
Duke Cao was the first-class noble in the Ming Dynasty and the leader of all officials. As the steward of Duke Cao's mansion, he was the target of winning over and making friends with all forces. After all, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, let alone Li Daliang was the steward.
"Mama Rong, go and call that girl Qiuxiang to me. I want to see if she has eaten the courage of the bear heart or the earth is not aware of the greatness of the world!" Yuan could no longer suppress his anger at this time.
Li Yunrui had just finished his negotiations with Dongxue and was about to go out and brush up another flower gun with the people from the Shihua Pavilion. Looking at the angry Mama Rong, she brought two maids and rushed into her room without even reporting.
"Criminal, Madam asked me to bring Qiuxiang over!" Madam Rong said while bowing to Li Yunrui.
When Li Yunrui heard Rong Mama's words and tone, he could guess what Yuan was looking for Qiuxiang.
At first, Li Yunrui didn't want to push Qiuxiang to the front desk and let her come forward as his tool. He wanted to come forward to operate the transformation of the Shihua Pavilion by himself. After several days of consideration, Li Yunrui gave up this idea.
Li Jinglong had already come forward to connect with the court officials and was preparing to call for the crown prince, which was enough to make the emperor depressed. Maybe Zhu Di would act in advance and start suppressing Li Jinglong in all aspects. At this time, if Li Yunrui jumped out to open the Shihua Pavilion, more people would focus their attention on the Duke Cao's Mansion. Some people would hold a magnifying glass to see what happened in the Duke Cao's Mansion and look for a handle to attack Li Jinglong.
Li Yunrui asked Li Jinglong to establish the character of a literary master in order to raise the upper limit of the Duke Cao's Mansion and gain the favor of civil servants; Li Yunrui pretended to be crazy and stupid in order to lower the lower limit of the Duke Cao's Mansion and hoped to gain widespread sympathy from the public. If Li Yunrui performed too well, he would not be able to gain sympathy from some people, which would instead arouse jealousy from others.
So Li Yunrui adjusted his plan, pushed Qiuxiang and Dongxue to the front desk, and invisible himself behind the scenes, and commanded remotely.
"Mama Rong, you go back first. I will take Qiuxiang over in a while!" Li Yunrui waved his hand and said to Mama Rong.
"Criminal, this is not in line with the rules..." Rong Mama didn't expect Li Yunrui to protect her and was a little unhappy.
"Rules? In the Duke of Cao's Mansion, this prince is the rule! So what if Li Daliang is the housekeeper, he was still driven away by this prince! Only if I want, I can also sweep you out!" Li Yunrui, a later generation, watched many palace dramas, and knew the scenes of slaves fighting and maids bullying in the mansion. So he didn't plan to listen to Mama Rong's long-winded words and directly interrupted her.
Seeing that Li Yunrui did not follow the routine and threatened him again, Mama Rong became timid at the first time. After all, just as Li Yunrui said, as long as he was willing, he could easily drive Mama Rong away.
Rong Mama is alone now. Although she has some savings, she is really reluctant to leave the Duke Cao Mansion. In Duke Cao Mansion, she is a nanny who serves Yuan, and everyone in the mansion respects her. If she is really driven out of Duke Cao Mansion, she is a slave. According to the "Da Ming Law", the music households, the nine-subject fishermen, beggar households, and slaves, advocates being nobles. The untouchables dare not wear decent clothes, and cannot walk in the middle, so they can only walk on both sides.
One is a noble nanny, and the other is a pariah who is trampled on by thousands of people. Rong Mama must choose the former.
Looking at Mama Rong who left in disappointment, Li Yunrui showed a sneer on his lips.
"Young Master, are you unhappy because we two sleep together?" Qiuxiang looked at Mama Rong's back and felt uneasy.
"Don't be afraid, there is a young master here! Go to your mother's place later, you say that..." Li Yunrui leaned into Qiuxiang's ear and whispered.
Dongxue looked at the intimate look of the two of them, and the vinegar jar was knocked over again, pouting her mouth, looking unhappy.
