Aunt Cui nodded with satisfaction. Since these people had decided to stay and serve her, they had to get to know their new master. She pointed at Ye Zhenzhen beside her and said, "This is your young lady. All the people in the capital are Zhenzhen."
As your son is in charge, you will all be under her control from now on."
Everyone had noticed this young lady for a long time, and could guess her identity based on what they heard. Now they were secretly surprised by the young lady's status and favor, but they didn't dare to touch Qiao, and they all said respectfully.
He bowed and recognized his new master.
"You are old friends from the fifth house, so naturally you are good. Your errands will remain as usual for the time being. If necessary, I will make adjustments when I return to Beijing. Yuxiu, go to the room to get the purse and distribute it to everyone. Think of it as a meeting gift.
"
Yuxiu, who was originally worried about falling out of favor, perked up after hearing the order. She immediately went to the already packed inner room to get the corresponding purses and distributed them one by one to the servants outside.
These purses were prepared a long time ago and contained silver. Ye Zhenzhen prepared them for rewards when she came back to the Cui family. However, they did not live in the Cui family's mansion these days, which saved a lot of money, but they will definitely be indispensable in the future.
——After all, moving back to the fifth house after an absence of many years, taking care of everything is indispensable.
The old servants saw that the young lady behaved well and had good etiquette and rules. She seemed to have a good understanding of the family's survival rules. She was not at all like the rumored low-born person, and they did not dare to have any thoughts of bullying others. She was honest.
After listening to the arrangements on the spot, they went to arrange the yard.
Everyone else was impressed when they saw her skillful way of controlling her subordinates, especially Mrs. Liu, who sighed deeply in her heart, remembering how sad she felt when she first married into the Cui family.
Servants in the world are all arrogant. Because of the intricate network of connections, every servant is closely related and has a reputation. Even the wife of the house cannot do it arbitrarily, lest she be involved and cause trouble.
Therefore, it was very difficult for Chu Chu to use these servants, and she was despised for her status. Over the years, she fought with wits and courage, and finally conquered some people who were used by her. Her words gained weight, and she relaxed.
It stands to reason that Ye Zhenzhen's status is worse than that of the Liu family. If Cui Weizhen grew up in the Cui family's old house, she would not be able to be the young lady of the fifth house. Even if she is married back, the servants alone will be enough for her to drink a pot.
Already.
However, she was lucky. Not to mention her marriage to Cui Weizhen went smoothly, but these servants were left in the village to work hard for several years and their arrogance was flattened. Now they hope to perform well and regain the favor of their master.
Naturally, I can't put on airs and be cunning. I'm simply more obedient than a sheep.
Especially Ye Zhenzhen's gentle words, which also imply a knock - the work will remain as usual for the time being, and it will be adjusted if necessary after returning to Beijing. Isn't this just to see everyone's performance?
With this sentence, who would dare to cheat and cheat? No one wants to be sent away right after they come back, so naturally they have to work hard to perform.
Looking at the busy servants, Ms. Liu sighed with envy: "Fifth sister-in-law, you have married a good daughter-in-law."
With blessings and plans, why worry about the five houses not being prosperous?
Aunt Cui seemed to have been praised, and she narrowed her eyes happily, "Zhen'er has always been smart, and I have always been at ease."
Ye Zhenzhen blushed when she was praised: "My mother taught me well."
If it hadn't been for Aunt Cui's guidance, she would have been completely ignorant of things like the ways of the head of a house and the ways of serving as a royal servant, which were things that ladies in ancient times learned from a young age. Even now, she dare not say that she is proficient in them. She has only scratched the surface.
Even if it was superficial, it was beyond Liu's expectation. He kept praising her, which made Ye Zhenzhen feel embarrassed. It wasn't until the couple returned home that Ye Zhenzhen breathed a sigh of relief.
She rested in the meeting room and drank a large sip of herbal tea. The blush on her face had not gone away. Cui Weizhen raised his head from the book and teased with a half-smile: "I think you are quite thick-skinned, how can you just say a few words of praise?"
Can’t stand it anymore?”
He also heard some noises in the room.
Ye Zhenzhen glared rudely: "You are so thick-skinned! I am a reserved and cute little fairy. I will blush when I am praised. This is very in line with my personality!"
Cui Weizhen was speechless. She always found some weird and weird reasons. If she got entangled in nonsense, no one could stop her, so he very wisely raised the topic: "You have been tired for a long day, so go to bed and lie down for a while."
Ye Zhenzhen was really tired, but still very energetic. She couldn't sleep while lying on the bed. Seeing Cui Weizhen reading a book, she said, "You can sleep with me."
The black and translucent eyes looked at him eagerly, and the cute little face showed a coquettishness and dependence that the master had not noticed, which made people feel soft in their hearts and unable to think of rejection.
Cui Weizhen reluctantly put down the book, took off his shirt and went to bed to lie with her. He took her petite and soft body into his arms with his long arms. The long-lost warmth made him smile, and his voice was low and caring: "Go to sleep."
As gentle and affectionate as the spring breeze, Ye Zhenzhen's heart felt like the earth that had been blown by it, blooming all kinds of flowers in a hurry. She was almost softened by the fragrance of spring, leaning against his arms weakly and bonelessly,
The body in his arms is broad and strong, as reliable as a mountain, making people admire and rely on him.
Ye Zhenzhen's uneasy heart gradually calmed down. The day's intrigues and tit-for-tat confrontations, and the invisible bloodshed made her intuitively feel that the big family was more terrifying than she imagined. She was like a lonely boat, and could easily be bullied.
But the sea swallowed them up.
Fortunately, he is here.
He was like a lighthouse in the vast sea, a majestic mountain, standing in her heart like a needle that fixed the sea, giving her endless courage. Even if the road ahead was full of thorns, she would dare to move forward bravely and go hand in hand with him.
She couldn't help but rub his chin affectionately, and said in a soft voice, "Fortunately, you're here."
Cui Weizhen caressed her back gently, his eyes showed the gentle love that Ye Zhenzhen had never seen. Ye Zhenzhen always relied on him, but she never knew that she was his salvation.
Before meeting her, he lived in darkness and hatred, like a walking corpse. He was alive, but had no interest in life. Until she appeared, it was like a bright sunshine shining into his dark world, and his life was different from now on.
Thousands of words boiled in his heart, but Cui Weizhen didn't say a word, and continued to pat her soothingly. I don't know how long it took, the breath of the person in his arms gradually became longer, the white cheeks were smeared with an intoxicating blush, and the corners of the lips were tinged.
With a slight smile on his face, he was already sleeping soundly.
Cui Weizhen couldn't help but smile. He was not sleepy at first, but he was infected with the laziness of the spring afternoon. With the shallow breathing in his ears, he gradually fell into the deep and lingering sleep of spring.
