That night, Yulan followed Yang's order and went to Xie Wu's house with the food box, but she didn't expect it, but it was empty.
Xie Wu went to Chen's house to talk to her.
Yulan thought about Yang's instructions and waited in her room. She drank several cups of tea, but Xie Wu had no intention of coming back. In the end, she couldn't help but let Miyue go to Chen's place to have a look.
, finally waited for Mi Yue to come back from there, and the news she brought was that Xie Wu was resting in Chen's house.
Yulan returned to Tinglan Courtyard with a sullen expression, and after hearing what Yulan said, Yang was so angry that she threw down several more tea cups.
Of course Xie Wu knew what Yang was planning, and she also knew that if she could not convince herself, she would have to do some tricks to deal with her.
There are only a few mistresses in Wu'an Marquis Mansion, and there is no shortage of old ladies and second-in-commands. Finally, when Xie Zheng is transferred back to the capital, those women are lucky enough to be selected as servants in Cuizhuyuan. Among them, there are also
Many people were arranged to enter the Cuizhuyuan after using money to find a way. Unexpectedly, Xie Zheng wanted to change them all before the job was done. Who would be willing to do this?
Therefore, as soon as the news came out, Cuizhuyuan was in a state of chaos. The mother-in-law who had the idea immediately wanted to take the way of Mrs. Shizi's side, but she didn't want Mrs. Chen to rush out all morning and take Xie Xu and the few people around her.
The servant girl went to Chao'an Temple outside the city to offer incense.
Chen's side is dead, so Xie Wu's side is the only one left.
After all, the prince had entrusted the whole matter to her. Whether he could stay or not was just a matter of Xie Wu's words. Therefore, naturally, these people set their sights on the person serving Xie Wu.
Mother Luo is one of them.
After all, she had made a big appearance in front of Xie Wu in the past two days, and she had followed Chen back from Ningxia. For these two points, Xie Wu would give her some bad treatment no matter what.
So, as soon as Xie Wu got up, Mother Luo personally brought the porridge in.
Normally, Mi Yue arranged for the little maid to pick up Xie Wu's meals, but this time it was delivered by Luo's mother herself. However, Xie Wu just glanced at Luo's mother indifferently, then sat cross-legged on the couch, concentrating on
Have some porridge.
I have to say that Mother Luo not only cooks Jiangnan cuisine well, but also makes the porridge just right, soft, glutinous, thick, and very tasty.
Seeing Xie Wu's happy expression, Mother Luo knew that today's porridge was to her liking, so she smiled and stepped forward and said, "Girl, are all the people in our courtyard going to be sent away?"
Xie Wu put down the white porcelain spoon in her hand, glanced at Mother Luo with her phoenix eyes, "Mom, do you think so?"
Mother Luo smiled and rubbed her hands.
She has been following the Chen family for many years and knows that the Crown Prince's wife cannot stand up. In the past, in Ningxia, the population was simple and the people around her were all her own people, so she didn't think it was a big deal.
But now that she has come to the capital, Mother Luo just feels frustrated and constrained. For example, Mrs. Chen said she wanted to eat a lion's head with crab meat, so she had to ask the woman in charge of the kitchen to buy the crab, but the woman refused.
Not to mention, every time I have to make fun of her in a weird way.
Although she had only been here a few days, Luo's mother felt that she had suffered all the anger she deserved in her life here, but her wife was still weak and had no ideas, so she just tried to persuade her not to worry about it.
It was precisely because of this that when Xie Wu said she was needed, she immediately ran over without saying a word.
She always has to find a backer for herself, right?
Moreover, although her husband and son were assigned to the outer courtyard, they did not hold any positions, and were often driven around by some respectable stewards in the house, which made them very aggrieved. It was not easy to catch the eldest girl and hire someone. If she
If you can win the favor of a big girl, you might be able to find a good job for your husband and son.
"Girl, please forgive me for talking too much. Of course, there are some people out there who are sneaky and sneaky, but there are also a few good ones. If the girl hits them all at once, I'm afraid it will cause an ugly scene." Mother Luo said cautiously.
.
"Then who does mom think can use it?" Xie Wu smiled.
Mother Luo raised her eyes and glanced at Xie Wu, and saw that her expression was as usual, with a smile on her lips, and she didn't look angry, so she boldly continued, "The slaves next to me don't know, but the cow in charge of firewood in the kitchen
Mom and Mrs. Wang, who is in charge of the keys to our courtyard, are happy people, and their families also have some useful jobs in the outer courtyard."
It wasn't because Mother Niu and Mother Wang promised her favors that she came to plead for them. It was just that these two people did have some abilities, and they had family members outside to take care of them. The girl might be able to use them in the future.
Since she regarded herself as Xie Wu's person, she naturally had to pay attention to these things for her. Moreover, after driving so many people out at this time, she was afraid that Xie Wu would not be able to cope with it by herself.
Xie Wu raised her hand and tapped the small table on the couch a few times.
The clear voice made Mother Luo's face freeze, and she lowered her head in a hurry.
Does the girl blame her for talking too much?
Xie Wu also seemed to suddenly realize something. An undercurrent suddenly flashed through her eyes. Then, she quickly took back her hand that was resting on the small table, and then her expression quickly returned to its original state.
"Since mother said they are good, let them stay." After a moment, Xie Wu looked at Luo's mother calmly and said.
Of course, she never thought about sending out all the people in Cuizhuyuan with one stroke. Although they were all arranged by Yang's hand, the only ones who truly gained Yang's trust were Nian Yue and a few of them.
The real power in Cuizhuyuan, the fat and insignificant mother-in-law, those insignificant people, Yang would not bother at all with them.
Since he is not a close confidant of the Yang family, I think it is okay to use Xie Wu.
The reason why she proposed to her father to replace all those who were afraid of Cuizhuyuan was that she could establish her authority, and secondly, she could use this to remove the people planted by the Yang family. However, it was not necessary if it caused public outrage.
Moreover, she also believed that Mother Luo could not just make her come to her to ask for this favor.
This person must be of some use.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be a waste of the goodwill Luo's mother had worked so hard to cultivate in front of her.
Mother Luo originally thought that Xie Wu was angry, so she didn't want to turn around and Xie Wu agreed to her words. For a moment, she had some reaction, "Girl, you, you agreed?"
Xie Wu smiled and nodded, "I still need a nanny in charge of the house, so why not let mom take care of it for the time being."
"The girl is saying... Thank you very much, girl. I will definitely do my best for you in the future." After waking up, Mother Luo was overjoyed.
Xie Wu smiled and said, "Then I will have more work to do in my room...Mom, you have to worry a lot."
"Yes, I will definitely do my best." Mother Luo smiled so hard that she couldn't even close her mouth.
I just wanted the girl to think of her when she was working with people, but I didn't expect that the girl would directly transfer her to the room and become her housekeeper.
"However, my mother has always liked to eat Yangzhou cuisine... Before I hire a cook from Yangzhou, I'm afraid I still have to work hard for my mother." Xie Wu added with a smile.
"No hard work, no hard work, it's what a slave should do."
She has already changed from Mama Luo to Grandma Luo. No matter how hard it is, it is worth it.
Xie Wu smiled lightly and said, "Then, grandma, go back and take care of things, and then come to my room to be on duty in a while."
"Yes." Aunt Luo happily exited the room.
Xie Wu smiled, turned around, picked up the spoon and drank the porridge again.
And Mi Yue just stood beside Xie Wu quietly from beginning to end, without saying a word.
It wasn't until Xie Wu drank the bowl of red date and bird's nest porridge that Mi Yue stepped forward and asked the little maid to remove the bowl and spoon from the small table, then twisted the handkerchief and handed it to Xie Wu.
"Mi Yue, no one asked you to plead with me?" Xie Wu did not take the handkerchief in Mi Yue's hand, but asked her with a raised eyebrow and a smile.
Yes, of course there is.
But she knew her weight in the girl's heart now, and there was no guarantee that she would be one of the people kicked out.
Thinking of this, Mi Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly. She bowed her head and blessed Wu, and then said respectfully, "I don't dare."
Xie Wu smiled lightly and continued to ask her, "Can those two people mentioned by Mother Luo just now be used?"
Mi Yue lowered her head and thought for a while, and then said to Xie Wu, "Mother Liu who is in charge of firewood is an honest person. She can join our hospital because her nephew is close to the person in charge of purchasing in another hospital. As for Mother Wang, although she is a little greedy,
It's cheap, but generally decent, and her husband is in charge of the carriages and horses in our house."
Xie Wu nodded, "Aside from them, is there anyone else available?"
Mi Yue glanced at Xie Wu quickly and saw that her expression was as usual, but even so, Mi Yue still felt a little uneasy.
"That little maid named Fat Ya is not bad either." Mi Yue considered it.
"Fat girl?" A round face suddenly appeared in Xie Wu's mind, "Is she the nimble little maid who brought the princess in the day before yesterday?"
"It's her." Miyue replied.
Xie Wu suddenly laughed out loud.
Mi Yue looked at her in surprise.
However, Xie Wu remembered that day when she asked her to go down and make tea for Lu Zhan. Unexpectedly, until Lu Zhan left, her pot of tea was not made. Lu Zhan subconsciously raised his hand several times to pick up the tea cup, but it was all empty.
.
Thinking of this, Xie Wu couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth again.
"Nian Yue's position is not empty, why not let her take the place."
Miyue's eyes widened even more.
The position of reading the moon...
That's the maid next to the girl!
Xie Wu didn't seem to see the shock on Mi Yue's face. She raised her slender eyebrows slightly, looked at Nian Yue with a hint of her lips and said, "You can learn all the rules and etiquette slowly."
, only loyalty cannot be learned, Miyue, do you think so?"
Looking for the moon is like someone pouring a basin of ice water over your head in winter, making you feel cold from head to toe.
She knelt down with a pop. Perhaps because she exerted too much force, her knees made a dull sound when they hit the bluestone floor tiles, but she didn't even frown.
"Girl, please give me another chance."
"Miyue, you have forgotten that I gave you a chance, and more than once." Xie Wu's long eyelashes trembled slightly like butterfly wings, and the smile on her lips spread like water waves.
"girl……"
"However, you are different from Nianyue after all, so I don't mind giving you one more chance, but this time, will you let me down?" Xie Wufeng's eyes were slightly narrow, and something was faintly beating in her clear eyes.
.
Even if she knew that the road waiting for her ahead might not be an easy one, if she retreated...
But there was nowhere she could retreat.
"My slave, everything depends on the girl's orders." Finally, Mi Yue gritted her teeth and knelt down in front of Xie Wu again.
Just like the second lady didn't care about Nian Yue's life or death at the critical moment, she was the same, the only person she could rely on was a girl, and only a girl.
