It must be said that the two qualities of loyalty and liveliness were perfectly demonstrated in Ping'er. On the one hand, Ping'er handled the relationship with the people in the house very well. Wang Xifeng offended many people and caused a lot of complaints.
It was resolved and relieved by her. On the other hand, her loyalty to Wang Xifeng made her always make suggestions for this troubled master, which can be said to be the ultimate achievement.
"Your grandma didn't just get a little money." Feng Ziying chuckled and shook her head, "She is too greedy."
"Master, you want to say that grandma is greedy, and I admit it, but do you know how many favors grandma has to deal with every month?" Ping'er bit her lips and said in disbelief, "They say that grandma is a very good housekeeper, you know?
You should know that this is not the case. My father-in-law's money has long been running out. In which month does grandma not rack her brains to make up for various expenses? The food and clothing expenses of the whole family, the social favors of the gentlemen outside, everyone.
A monthly report for a thousand people, yes, it seems like it’s all expenses incurred by the public, but the article about the relationship between the world and the hometown is not that simple..."
"Oh? How come it's not a simple method?" Feng Ziying was really curious about the expenses in Jia's family. In addition to the public expenditure, did Wang Xifeng have to pay for it himself?
The two of them talked as they walked. They had passed the small courtyard where Aunt Xue's family lived, and arrived at the main entrance of the Grand View Garden. Feng Ziying entered first.
The greenery that hit her face made Feng Ziying's mind clear. The entire rockery was covered with verdant vegetation and vines, swaying in the gentle breeze and sunshine. The narrow path passed through the rocks, and you could also go around the road next to it.
, but Feng Ziying entered along the path with great interest.
Ping'er was a little hesitant. Naturally, she had walked through this winding path, because it could only accommodate one or two people, but this lonely man and woman took this road. Along the way, many servants saw her leading this person.
You are going forward, but when you get here, the other party wants to take this road, which makes people gossip.
But Feng Ziying ignored him and walked straight ahead, so she could only keep up.
"Master, you don't know that there are thousands of people in this mansion, whether they are old, sick, or dying, and wishing for birthdays. Grandma can tell the truth in the mansion, but she can't just rely on a little money every month to make people obedient. That's all
It’s the accumulation of favors, people respect grandma, and they have to let her know if anything happens at home..."
Ping'er's tone was a little choked, and she obviously felt very sorry for her master. In her opinion, Mrs. Wang's leaving the housekeeping matter to her grandma was just a scapegoat, a big trap, and her grandma had to take over.
Who told you to be her niece and the eldest son-in-law of Rongguo Mansion?
"..., but the original rules of the public school were all decades ago. The servants' family members have sores and diseases, weddings and funerals, the rules of the public school are just to spend a hundred cents, but now a hundred cents
What can you do with money? But rules are rules, and grandma can't break them. It turns out that the wife just gives some herself, but now it's grandma's turn. Grandma is a good-looking person and refuses to show weakness, so she can only do better.
, in this regard, even if you have knocked out teeth and swallowed blood, you have to carry it. This kind of help will cost a hundred taels of silver this month. Does this man know?"
"Is there anything else? I'm afraid one or two hundred taels of silver from this month won't be a problem for Sister Feng, right?"
Ping'er frowned. The man's names for his grandmother became more and more casual and unrestrained.
The original "Second Sister-in-law Lian" had long omitted the word "Lian" and changed it to "Second Sister-in-law". Now he has directly used the "Sister-in-law Feng" he used when he was joking about his grandmother. Then that will be enough.
If the common title "Sister Feng" is also used, if outsiders hear it, it will immediately cause a commotion, and the rumors will immediately drown the two of them.
Just thinking about the "evil behavior" this man did to his grandma on the Grand View Tower and on the Lantern Festival, Ping'er couldn't help but feel flustered. This man's behavior towards his grandma had already crossed the line, but what could he do?
Even when grandma was in trouble, she never thought of going to find Mr. Lian. Instead, she hurriedly asked herself to find this man, completely treating him as her backbone. What could she say?
I just had a second thought, if I go to the Second Master Lian for such a matter, will the Second Master Lian be able to handle it? Even if I can handle it, the Second Mistress will not dare to go to the Second Master Lian. The storm will drown her.
died.
"How can it be that simple? Apart from the worldliness of these servants, what about the girls? I only give the girls a small amount every month. Miss Lin and the third girl both like to read, the second girl is quite honest, and the fourth girl likes to draw.
, and Miss Yun, if we buy books and ink every month, our Jia family is also a hairpin family, so it can’t be too bad. There is no such rule in the middle school, so we still have to ask grandma to supplement it? Not to mention this, it is the capital city.
Which of the popular balsam pollen products is not expensive? Of course, girls can’t afford it, but other princes have it in their houses. Shouldn’t the girls in our family have some? We don’t have this expense in the middle school, our ancestors did.
If I say something at that time, grandma still has to grit her teeth and endure it?"
"To put it this way, I have wronged Sister Feng. She is completely selfless in sacrificing herself for others." Feng Ziying laughed, "Then your grandma doesn't have to subsidize this amount. If it's not possible, she can also shirk it.
"
"Master, it's not you who said that. You are married now. I believe Grandma Keng will also encounter this kind of situation when she is housekeeper. You will naturally understand." Ping'er followed behind Feng Ziying and sighed.
Said: "My grandma must have shortcomings. I would say she is too face-conscious and likes the feeling of being supported and surrounded by others. Maybe it would have been possible when the house was prominent ten or twenty years ago, but now the Jia family...
"
Feng Ziying still agreed with Ping'er's answer.
With Wang Xifeng's character, she probably enjoys the feeling of being in a position of power, especially when hundreds of people from the whole house are surrounding her. That feeling is probably unforgettable for her, and she must lose it.
This power is probably more uncomfortable than killing her, so it makes sense that she would rather supplement her own money to maintain this status.
The taste of regret and emotion in Ping'er's mouth still made Feng Ziying feel a little bit. Every family has its ups and downs, and the Jia family is no exception. However, if the Jia family still can't see the situation clearly when it is declining, it will be really bad.
It may fall into dust and never be reincarnated.
Feng Ziying didn't know how much she could help the Jia family in the future. Yuanchun's request, because of the entanglements between Daiyu, Baochai and perhaps a few other girls and the Jia family, it seemed that in the eyes of many people, she really became
He is a lecher who can't move forward when he sees a woman, and even because the Jia family can be dragged down, he gives the censors a perfect target that can be criticized at any time. No matter how you look at it, it is a short-sighted and stupid move in politics.
But is this really bad?
Instead of letting those worried people think about you all day long, it is better to hand over the handle to them generously and make them feel at ease.
At least Emperor Yonglong, the Supreme Emperor, and Prince Yi Zhong can see his obvious weaknesses. Otherwise, my father controls 200,000 of Zhou's most elite troops on the Liaodong front, while he is serving as a civilian official in the court.
Who can rest assured when the sky is skyrocketing?
Feng Ziying can even be sure that even if she is really released as an official in the future, her legitimate wife and legitimate children will have to be placed in the capital city. Even if no one mentions this, she must take the initiative to do this, otherwise there will definitely be many
No one can sleep.
"Then why did your grandma come to see me today?" Feng Ziying no longer "discussed" this issue with Heping'er. There is no point in discussing it. People's temperaments have long been fixed, and Wang Xifeng cannot change because of this, unless
The complete change in the external environment made it impossible to continue the original life.
Ping'er hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "I'd better wait until I see grandma and let grandma tell you personally. I can't tell you clearly."
Stopping suddenly, Feng Ziying turned around. Ping'er, who had been following Feng Ziying, was caught off guard. He said "ah" and had no time to stop, so he bumped into Feng Ziying.
This is exactly where the "winding path leads to secluded place" is, like a small patio, with direct sunlight shining down. There are winding paths at both ends, but here it begins to enlarge, surrounded by rugged rocks, moss, and hanging vines.
When you come down, the branches and leaves are swaying, it is really a good place to have an affair.
He felt the other person's warm and soft body crashing into his arms, especially when he saw Ping'er's anxious and shy red dimples, her warm and vermilion cherry lips and her panting lips through the sunlight coming from the small patio.
Panting, a long-suppressed affection seemed to suddenly explode in Feng Ziying's heart.
One hand subconsciously hooked the other person's slender waist. Looking at the slightly frightened but not much rejection look on that face, how could Feng Ziying be able to hold back?
He lowered his head and pressed lightly, the warm breath lingering between their cheeks, instantly making Ping'er get lost in this narrow space.
Ability and reaction can only passively cater to the other party's desire to break through the heat between his lips.
It wasn't until Fang Lushan's claws unbuttoned her lapel and got into his arms that she suddenly woke up, struggled hurriedly, and begged in a crying voice: "Master, I can't do it, I really can't, I can't do it here."
here,……"
Feng Ziying was awakened by Ping'er's fierce resistance. He also realized that he was a little abrupt. After letting go, he took a deep breath and buttoned up Ping'er's lapel. Then he lowered his voice and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a little nervous."
I can’t help myself.”
Ping'er was buttoning his clothes and arranging his hair at the same time. Hearing Feng Ziying say this, he felt a little sweet. At least the other party respected him, unlike some men who ignored their moods as soon as they happened. This Rongguo Mansion suffered a loss.
Are the girls still missing?
"Well, I shouldn't be like this. You are a person with status, how can you do this?" Ping'er lowered his head and whispered, "I can't even now..."
