419: Digging(1/2)

419: The four people digging the hole felt their backs tense up due to Zi Jin’s gaze. They didn’t dare to say anything for a while, but just lowered their heads and waited for instructions.

As expected, he has been a servant for many years and is the most calm. He is not uneasy at all because of the change of master. With this calmness, it will be a great help to Zi Jin if he can conquer the four of them. Zi Jin's eyes softened a little when he thought of this.

, but his tone was still calm, and he said: "Since Mrs. Du has given you to me, you must follow my rules, do you understand?"

"Yes, I understand." The four of them said in unison. They didn't expect Zi Jin to speak so cleanly. If it were someone else who had to keep in touch with their managers for many years, they wouldn't be so tough like this.

What are you asking for? It turned out to be a rumored winner of playing cards that don't follow common sense. He became more and more careful in his heart. He must not let Zi Jin catch his shortcomings, otherwise it would be very miserable.

"It's good to know. I am a person who knows rewards and punishments very clearly. I will be rewarded generously if I have done meritorious service, and I will be severely punished if I make mistakes. I don't care what you think in your heart or who you obey in your heart, but there is one thing you need to know.

My subordinates have to work together. If something goes wrong in the department under whose control, not only the person who made the mistake must be dealt with, but also the manager who made the mistake must be dealt with. Do you have other masters in your heart? You can be loyal to others, but if

Something went wrong in your management and I lost my face. You decide for yourself whether the master behind you can protect you. I have a very famous name. I don’t think your master will follow me for a slave.

Falling out is the only thing that matters. You will know which is more serious." Zi Jin will not win people's hearts through other people's tenderness, but will directly use violence to suppress them. Anyway, what Zi Jin wants is not their life and death, but that he will not find someone for her.

It's just troublesome, this method is just right.

Behind Zi Jin's strength, he just wants to see what kind of actions these four people will have. The more unusual the suppression, the more unusual the suppression will be, and the different performances will be, right?

After sending Zi Jin off respectfully, the four stewards looked at each other in disbelief, with the most eye-catching eyes falling on Aunt Feng. After all, Aunt Feng was Mrs. Ye's person.

"Old sister, what do you mean by the Third Young Madam?" Nanny Feng asked cautiously, feeling a little nervous in her heart as she couldn't figure out what Zi Jin was going to do.

"Yeah, I've never seen such a shameless servant like us who have a good reputation right from the beginning. I think the third young lady is not easy to get along with. Although the things we are in charge of are not the most powerful and powerful in the house.

It's a place, but it's not a place without any mistakes. If something really happened... the name of Mrs. Third Young Master is really scary." Aunt Yang echoed what Aunt Feng said, her eyes would look like Aunt Feng's.

.

Aunt Feng was not stupid. She knew that these two old guys wanted to encourage her to file a complaint with Mrs. Ye and shoot the first bird. Who doesn't know this? So she said calmly: "What did the third young lady say about us?"

Just do what you want. No slave can talk about his master behind his back. I have some things to do, so I'll leave first. You guys can talk slowly."

Aunt Feng turned around and left. Aunt Feng looked at her back and spat: "It's just that the old lady in front of me is so arrogant, and she doesn't care whether she has the capital or not."

Nanny Yang glanced at Nanny Lu, stretched out her hand to tug on Nanny Feng's sleeves and said with a smile: "You are the one who doesn't know what to say. Nanny Feng has always had this temper. Why are you angry with her? I don't want to be angry with her either."

I will go and take a look at my mess. The new official will be the first to take office. The princess is not easy to fool, so she should cheer up and do her job well, lest something really goes wrong and she will lose face for the rest of her life.

So I folded in and cried without even crying."

Grandma Feng felt a little regretful after hearing what Grandma Yang said. She shouldn't have been so upset in front of Grandma Lu. She immediately said with a smile: "My mouth just likes to cause trouble. Sister Lu, please don't take it personally.

"

Aunt Lu said calmly: "What did you say? I was out of the room just now and I didn't hear you. It's getting late, and I still have a lot of things to do, so I have to take a step forward."

Grandma Lu was in charge of the ancestral hall and was busy during the New Year and festivals. She was usually the most cheerful person. Saying this at this time was just an excuse. Grandma Feng looked at Grandma Yang's back, her face darkened, and she snorted coldly, "

Each and every one of them really regards themselves as characters, and they don’t bother to check their own virtues.”

"Okay, just say a few words. If someone overhears you, I'll take a closer look at your skin." Aunt Yang had a headache. Aunt Feng's mouth was really a headache. "I'm going to do some work too. There's a lot of stuff in the laundry room."

I can't compare to your leisure time."

"Let's go together. Do you think we should go to Mrs. Du's place..."

The two of them walked further and further away, and then Yan Tao stuck her head out, turning around and heading towards An Yuan with disdain on her lips.

After listening to Yan Tao's words, Zi Jin's expression did not change, he just smiled softly and said: "This servant who has been around for many years is indeed confident. Look at what he said, even one or two people can't even notice it."

Even my master doesn’t take it seriously.”

"Young madam, please don't be angry. What's the point of arguing with such a loser? She will regret it sooner or later." Xianqiao said hurriedly, gently lowering her shoulders for Zi Jin.

"That's right, it's just an old naughty slave showing off something. I'll go check it out, young lady. I don't believe that these old guys don't have any shortcomings in someone else's hands. If they find out, it will be easier for her." Hanmei gritted her teeth in anger, wishing she could throw those few things away.

Just tear them apart one by one.

"Why are you so anxious? Madam, you have your own ideas in your mind. How can we expect others to do things for us when we are not ours?" Shui Rong saw clearly, and this was not the case.

"You can keep your composure." Yan Tao smiled, then looked at Zi Jin and said, "Young madam, I see that Grandma Lu is quite useful. She didn't say a single nonsense from beginning to end. She is quite capable.

Idea."

Zi Jin nodded, Yan Tao has gained experience over the years, and has become decent in speaking and acting. He looked at her and said: "How can you guard the ancestral hall if you don't have the ability? You must know that the ancestral hall is not guarded by just anyone.

Don't worry about this Aunt Lu for now, just leave her alone." Zi Jin paused, frowned for a while and then said: "Aunt Feng belongs to the old lady, we can't move for the time being, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, you guys

I've been keeping an eye on the waiter and washing room these past few days."

"The tea house is in charge of the tea in the inner and outer courtyards. There is an explanation for whether the tea is good or bad, and which tea shop to buy tea from. I heard from Yan Tao that Grandma Feng is not a clean person in her way of thinking. The young lady wants to

It would be most appropriate to have someone perform an operation." Xianqiao said in a low voice.

Zi Jin nodded, Xian Qiao was trained/taught by Mrs. Yao after all, and she really has some insight into people and things.

"Let's settle this matter for now. Even if you find something, don't make any announcement. Grandma Feng and Grandma Yang are closer. This Grandma Yang is a cautious person and should pay more attention to it."

"Yes, the maids have remembered."

Zi Jin waved his hand for them to leave, turned around and took the sewing basket and continued to sew clothes, but in his mind he was still thinking about the fact that winter was coming, so he had to make a forehead wipe for the old lady, and make a pair of soft-soled shoes for Hai's to wear in winter to keep her feet warm.

Father Yao and Brother Yao can just make a pair of cloth shoes. What should the second brother and the third brother give as gifts? It takes too much effort to make shoes. If you get a pair of socks, the gift will be a bit thin. After thinking about it, Zi Jin feels that it is still the same.

It’s just that this means we have to make several pairs of shoes, and even Ye Mingxuan will have to make a pair together. With Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Ye can’t leave her behind, and with Haishi, the eldest princess can’t be short either...

Thinking about it like this, I have to make two foreheads, one pair of soft-soled shoes, and six pairs of cloth shoes. It's really busy. Fortunately, it's not in a hurry. There are still some days before winter.

Even so, Zi Jin asked An Yuan's girl to apply the paste, and took out the old coarse cloth to paste the soles layer by layer. In her previous life, Zi Jin had some skills in making shoes for Brother Yao.

It didn't bother her. It was just that Xianxiao and the others were very surprised when they saw Zi Jin's grand display.

"Young Madam, when will you learn to make shoes? This servant doesn't know." Hanmei spoke quickly and was surprised to see Zijin applying the paste layer by layer with a brush, using skillful gestures and extremely fine kung fu.

.

"I've seen my second sister make it several times when I was at home. I've never eaten pork jerky. Is it possible that I've never seen a pig run away? Although I'm too lazy to do it, I know how to do it. The old lady said no matter what I do,

Keep it in mind, if you don't do it, if you don't know it, how about my skills?" Zi Jin said as he carefully scraped the paste up, the scraping was fine and dense, it was indeed a good skill.

Several girls were very impressed. They were all busy helping, some holding coarse cloths and gluing layers of cloth. Zi Jin guided them not to make wrinkles, to spread them out, and to make the paste even...

When Ye Mingxuan came back, he saw the girls of An Yuan, big and small, gathered around and it was really lively. He couldn't help but walked forward, looked at Zi Jin waving the brush triumphantly, and said with a smile: "What are you doing?

?”

"You're back? So early?" Zi Jin was surprised and said with a smile.

The girls around were busy greeting Ye Mingxuan and bowing. Ye Mingxuan nodded and said, "I came back from the Yamen without anything to do. What are you doing?" He asked again, obviously very curious.

"Sole."

"Sole?" Ye Mingxuan was very suspicious, "Is this the sole?"

Zi Jin pursed his lips and smiled. Ye Mingxuan, a grown man, had never seen these before, so he explained: "The soles of the shoes you are wearing are made like this. They are glued on layer by layer. The soles are not called thousand-layer soles."

, that’s how it came about.”

Ye Mingxuan suddenly realized it and raised his eyebrows: "Why do you think of doing this?"

"Let me make shoes for you." After Zi Jin finished the work in his hands, he handed the brush to the girl next to him and said, "Hold up these starched cloths and bring them in to me when they are dry."

Xian Qiao smiled and responded, instructing the little girl to carry the things to the other side. Zi Jin then walked up to Ye Mingxuan with a smile on his face. Ye Mingxuan held Zi Jin's hand out of habit, not caring about the little ones around him.

The girls looked at each other as they led Zi Jin into the house.

After entering the door, Ye Mingxuan said: "Let them do all the work from now on. You have no need to do it yourself. It's very tiring."

"It's nothing. I started tinkering with it as soon as I got interested." Zi Jin sat next to Ye Mingxuan and said. Shui Rong brought the tea with a boxwood original color tray, served the tea and then left.

Ye Mingxuan suddenly squinted his eyes and looked at Zi Jin, "I remember that in my last life, my uncle only wore shoes made by you. Is it possible that you have a secret to making shoes? If I think about it carefully in my last life, I actually failed to win you.

A pair of shoes is not as good as those of my uncle."

Oh, these words sound full of jealousy. Zi Jin smiled and rolled into Ye Mingxuan's arms, "Are you ashamed to talk about something that has been going on for so long? Don't you think I did this for you?"

"Make me a pair of shoes. How much cloth does it take to make a pair of shoes? You have made so much, don't you think you can make it for me alone?" Ye Mingxuan was not satisfied, and he thought that Zi Jin probably wanted to make it for someone else.

I brought the shoes with me to make for myself.

If Zi Jin knew that Ye Mingxuan thought this way, he would probably praise you for telling the truth!

"Yes, I want to make a few pairs." Zi Jin counted the heads with his fingers, curled up in Ye Mingxuan's arms and said, "I can't serve here every day, I have to do my best, so that I can feel better.

Mingxuan, the Yao family are really very good to me, and I really treat them as family."

After hearing this, Ye Mingxuan thought of Zi Jin's life experience again, and felt that he was a bit of a bastard, so he didn't have to provoke her to talk about this, so he smiled and said: "Just do it, it will be done with me anyway. Don't be in a hurry.

You're exhausted. There are so many girls, so it's only right to ask them to beat you."

"I know, just don't worry." Zi Jin said, "Have you found Ma Shishan's whereabouts?" Zi Jin changed the topic.

"Not yet, but I have some clues now, and I think there will be news soon." Ye Mingxuan picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and then said: "I have always forgotten to tell you about Caichun. She did commit suicide.

, but this girl wrote the character "Du" on the ground before she died, and Caichun's family members disappeared en masse on the day Caichun committed suicide. I have been searching everywhere in the past few days but there is no news. It is obviously the person who framed the fault."

"Since Du Manqiu didn't instruct Caichun to do such a thing, who do you think did it?" Zi Jin was a little confused for a moment and couldn't think of anyone else who could plant such a nail in the Hou Mansion.

"It's really hard to say. Except for Du Manqiu, I'm afraid no one in this house will do the right thing with us." Ye Mingxuan said, frowning tightly.

"It's either from inside the mansion or from outside. It's just that there aren't many people from outside who can put their hands into the Marquis' mansion." The more elusive the enemy is, the scarier one is.
