Naturally, Anshi had already forgotten this matter long ago.
In the days when the Qi family first came out, she was still a little interested. After all, the two sisters-in-law did not fight openly, but they had been fighting secretly for several years.
Of course, at that time it all ended with An's defeat.
It is a pity that the Qi family who came out this time seemed to be a different person from before, and seemed to be invisible to all the provocations of the An family.
The most I can do is make a few sarcastic remarks when I'm irritable.
Although An's pain was stung every time, there was no real conflict in the end.
The most important thing is that neither the old lady of the Xie family nor Xie Yuncang ever mentioned asking her to hand over the housekeeper's power.
Not only was it not mentioned, but the meaning was not even revealed at all.
Mrs. An believed that she was still the mistress of the Xie family's inner house, so she naturally did not pay attention to Mrs. Qi, who was now alone.
In addition, due to the war in southern Yunnan and poor communication on the road, she had no idea what her son's current situation was. She was worried all day long, and she had no time to care about such a sister-in-law.
When I heard my mother-in-law mention it, I suddenly remembered it.
She couldn't help curling her lips and said: "She seems to be at ease. She is either lying down with her body stretched out all day long, or wandering around, and now she is even wandering outside.
After so many years in Xie's house, I have never been to that other courtyard alone. I was extremely busy all day long. Every time I went there, it looked good, but I still had to take care of the old lady."
This is purely a complaint. Every time I went there, the person in charge was the Qi family. If we want to say who is the most tired, it has to be the Qi family.
But in this case, Anshi was happy to say that the people next to him would naturally also know how to flatter him.
"Madam, those who are capable work hard. Although you were not in charge in the past, you also know in your heart that the most important thing is filial piety, which makes the old lady feel comfortable.
Everyone takes your things seriously, and now look at the entire capital, who is not praising you for being filial and capable?"
These words touched Mrs. Qi's heart. Now her reputation in the capital is really good.
The most important thing is of course because of his son, but now that he is a person involved in the Xie family's inner house, it can actually be regarded as a reason.
In these large families, whoever is in charge of the internal affairs is the real mistress.
Now that all the greetings and gifts from outside have gone through her hands, how can Mrs. Qi not be proud?
Naturally, his mood improved a lot, "By the way, let the people in the accounting office take a closer look. It's not as good as before. Everything outside is much more expensive, even the price of rice is 30% more expensive."
The harvest in the fields is not good. Even though our family has not reached that stage yet, we still have to prepare in advance. If something happens again this year, we don’t know how bad the market will be.
When you two wives go out this time, please don’t put on a show like before. It’s all a waste. Only the head of the house knows how expensive this firewood, rice, oil and salt is!”
After all, I still don't want Qi to feel too comfortable.
This is normal, and the Qi family must be aware of this.
As for those in the warehouse and accounting room, they are all old people in the house. Who doesn't know the discord between the eldest wife and the second wife?
In the past, when the second wife was very powerful, she often secretly interfered with the eldest wife's affairs.
Therefore, seeing that the Qi family has no chance of turning over, why not take this opportunity to please the An family?
After all, everyone in the house is eating with An's eyes in mind.
Mother Liang felt a little unhappy. Although this carriage was still the carriage that Qi used to go out in before, the contents of the carriage had been changed.
Even the curtains look the same, but they have been replaced with cheap Lu silk, not to mention the material on the stools here.
Even the tea set in the carriage was replaced.
Mother Liang has always had a good temper, and she has always advised Mr. Qi not to care too much about these things.
At this moment, some emotions appeared on my face.
I just didn't expect that the relatively calm person would be Qi.
"What's there to be angry about?" Ms. Qi said with a smile, "It's not like these things can't be used. Look at the people outside. They are all still working outside at this hour!"
At this time, the carriage has already left the city gate, and outside the carriage are large areas of fertile fields. It is already getting late, and it is almost time to have lunch.
But no one here has any intention of getting up and going back. Everyone is busy working in the fields.
Seeing them bending over like that for a long time, Mother Liang couldn't help but sigh: "In this world, the hardest working people are those who work in the fields."
"So, you said that compared to them, don't you think I am living a life like a god compared to them?
Although this set is not as good as the one from the official kiln that I used in the past, it is still in good quality. You can exchange it for two or three taels of silver when you take it out. For these people, it may last a few months.
Chew it."
Mother Liang couldn't help but look at the Qi family in front of her in surprise. After a long time, she smiled and said, "I was too worried. Now it seems that my wife has really changed."
Mrs. Qi was also a little embarrassed, "I used to always think about fighting. When I was a girl in my parents' family, I would fight with my sisters. Later, when I got married, I would fight with his women, and I would fight with my sisters-in-law in the house.
Fighting over and over, fighting until oneself is beyond recognition.
Some time ago, I wandered around every corner of the house, looking at the things I had people plant, looking at everything I had painstakingly arranged, but I felt very strange in my heart, as if... these had never been in my mind.
appeared in my life.
Obviously, these are all things I have put a lot of effort into. Later, I thought about it carefully, probably because these are not what I really want to do.
The main reason why I put so much thought into it is because I want him to see it and the old lady to see it, and I hope to get appreciation from them and make the people below me respect me."
Mother Liang thought of the garden that her wife had built in the past, and nodded: "Even the designer was hired by my wife with a lot of effort. After it was completed, the old lady and the master were really satisfied.
So many people come to our Shensi Hall for classes and they all praise the beautiful scenery."
Ms. Qi nodded and shook her head, "But what does it have to do with me? Apart from patrolling, I rarely enter that garden. On weekdays, other people go to the garden for a walk.
You three ladies like scented tea and often go in to pick flowers. Your eldest wife likes to join in the fun everywhere, so she is indispensable in the garden. It’s just me, and I rarely go there."
Mother Liang didn't know what to say.
Mrs. Qi pointed outside, "But at this time, when I saw them, I actually had a real feeling."
