It was the first time that Aunt Gao brought Aunt Liu and Sun to Qiao Xin Yuan together.
Shen Ziqiao looked at Aunt Gao who was already sitting gracefully on the grand master's chair in the teahouse, drinking tea from a teacup, and then glanced at Aunt Liu and Aunt Sun who were standing aside with lowered brows, with a beautiful smile curled up at the corner of her mouth.
"The three aunts are having a good time today." Shen Ziqiao walked in slowly and sat down on the first seat without even looking at Aunt Gao.
It is said that this Aunt Gao is a noble concubine, so she is considered a half-master at home, and she doesn't have to behave like a concubine in front of Shen Ziqiao and the others.
But what about the concubine? It's not the same as a junior.
Seeing that Shen Ziqiao didn't take her seriously at all, Aunt Gao was annoyed in her heart, it was like this every time, as long as the master and young master came back, no one would pay attention to this stinky girl.
"I'm afraid we won't come again, Miss San has forgotten who we are." Aunt Gao put the tea bowl on the high table, and looked sideways at Shen Ziqiao.
Shen Ziqiao turned her head with a smile, "Aunt Gao is not someone who will be forgotten."
"Miss San is busy now, so it's really hard to remember us." Aunt Gao looked at Shen Ziqiao, as if she saw Mrs. Pan, who used to overwhelm her in everything, and anger surged in her heart.
"Why don't you just tell me, what's the matter with the three aunts? If you say that you came here to have tea and chat, don't say that I don't believe it, you certainly wouldn't be able to say such a thing." Shen Ziqiao hid it impatiently. Speaking, anyway, there is no friendship at all, so why bother to go around.
Aunt Sun and Aunt Liu raised their heads abruptly, looked at Shen Ziqiao hesitantly, and glanced at Aunt Gao out of the corner of their eyes, without saying a word.
Aunt Gao originally wanted to ridicule Shen Ziqiao, but she didn't accept the move, so she could only say, "Mother Cui sent someone to send autumn fabrics today. I don't think it's right, Miss San, when the old lady was in charge, she never You will treat us harshly, you can't be the head of the family now, but you don't treat us as human beings."
"What kind of fabric makes Aunt Gao feel that she is not human?" Shen Ziqiao really wanted to look at the sky with forty-five degrees of sadness. She was only a housekeeper for the first day, so why did she have so many problems
How are you going to live in the days to come
She understood why women in ancient times always died so early.
Aunt Gao was furious when she heard the words, "Miss San, although I am a concubine, I am not just being scolded casually."
"Huh? Who scolded you?" Shen Ziqiao looked at her in bewilderment, she must have said that she was not human.
"you… "
Aunt Liu hastily interrupted in a low voice. "Miss San, it's actually like this. In previous autumns, the servants had four bolts of fabric, but this year there were only two... The servants thought it was a mistake on the servant's side, so they went to ask. They only said that it was Miss San's intention." …”
Shen Ziqiao turned to Hongyu and asked, "Who is in charge of this matter?"
"It's Mother Cui." Hongyu replied in a low voice.
Aunt Gao sat back down again, as if she would not leave today without giving her an explanation.
"Then let's ask Mother Cui." Shen Ziqiao said.
She knew that there must be something wrong with those women in charge who are so easy-talking today.
He had already planned to hold her back behind his back.
The old woman raised a bunch of good friends.
Cui's mother was quickly called over. When she entered the door, her eyes were on her nose, her nose was on her heart, and she didn't cast her extra eyes on Aunt Gao.
"Miss San, do you have any instructions for your servant?" Mama Cui lowered her body to salute in a neither humble nor haughty way. Although her tone was respectful, it could still be heard reluctantly.
Of course. An old man who has worked in the Shen family for decades, suddenly let a savage lady who is recognized as an idiot direct the work, it is inevitable that he will not be convinced.
Shen Ziqiao never thought of making these women believe her.
She is the master, their slave, whether they are convinced or not. They must do what she tells them to do.
"Aunt Gao and the others said that the amount of fabric is different this year, what's going on?" Shen Ziqiao asked.
Mother Cui straightened her back. Eyelids drooped, "When the servants sent them to several people, they were carefully counted, and there was no mistake."
"Really?" Shen Ziqiao had a playful smile on her brows. ,
"Besides, I did everything according to Miss San's orders, and I don't think there's anything wrong with this." Mother Cui said sternly.
Aunt Gao snorted, thinking that Shen Ziqiao was deliberately targeting her.
Shen Ziqiao raised her eyes, saw Cui's mother's expressionless face, and asked with a smile, "I ordered?"
Hongyu wanted to stand up and scold Mama Cui for her nonsense, but she was stared back by Mama Cui who was next to her. Since Mama Cui dared to say such things in public, there is a countermeasure, and the third lady is not nervous, so she wants to know how to deal with it.
"In the morning, the maidservant asked the third lady how to arrange the clothes and fabrics of each room in autumn. You said that everything should be done according to the rules of previous years." Cui's mother answered unhurriedly, as if she had expected such a situation.
"Aunt Gao, didn't you say four horses? Don't bully me as a child and a new housekeeper, and my eyes are still smeared in everything, so I took this opportunity to fool me." Shen Ziqiao smiled, as if she was joking.
No one present thought she was joking.
Aunt Gao only thought that Shen Ziqiao was scolding her for making something out of nothing and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity.
Does she need to be greedy for her two rags
Cui's mother would not take Shen Ziqiao's words as a joke, but she would not show panic. She wished that Shen Ziqiao would get angry, and it was best to punish her. In this way, things would become big.
A yellow-haired girl who only knows how to shout and drink dares to go against the old lady, she really can't control herself.
"Mother Cui, are there four horses or two?" Shen Ziqiao asked, she was actually very impatient to care about such trivial matters.
Is the woman in the back house okay to support herself when she is full? They can make a fuss over anything, so don't they have other pursuits in their lives besides house fighting
"Mother Cui, you have to think carefully before answering. Don't be too old. If you can't remember some things, it will be a joke." Aunt Gao looked at her coldly and said in a sharp voice.
"Last year, the old lady used her private money to buy cloth clothes for the aunts and young masters. She didn't use a cent of the public money, Miss San." Mama Cui didn't even look at Aunt Gao, she just looked up at Shen Ziqiao.
Faced with such provocative and complacent eyes, Shen Ziqiao expressed that she wanted to sigh.
What private money does the old woman have? Wouldn't her private money be Pan's dowry? With her temperament, she probably couldn't bear to take out her own coffin.
Do you want to force her to contribute money selflessly
She does this only when she is full.
"Since this is the case, then go and ask the old lady if you want to use the money to add clothes to everyone this year. You can't do things halfway. If you have it in the first year, you must have it in the second year. Mother Cui, I will leave this matter to you." Here it is." Shen Ziqiao didn't take out the money to add clothes to other people like Cui's mother expected, but asked her to ask the old lady for money.
How can she say such shameless words
Cui's mother turned red with anger.
She misjudged Shen Ziqiao, Shen Ziqiao is not a person who wants to save face, if he has no money, he has no money, why should he slap his face swollen to pretend to be fat, since the old lady has money, let her continue to spread the money.
Shen Ziqiao was very satisfied to see Cui's mother's expression finally changed, she turned her head to look at Aunt Gao, "Aunt Gao, you are really, you care about little things, how can the servants not be considerate in the future, you let me It's enough for Huan to just say it, there's no need to come by yourself, and it's nothing to humiliate your identity."
What kind of status can a concubine have! Mother Cui screamed in her heart.
"Okay, the matter is settled, you all go back." Shen Ziqiao clapped her hands and stood up, feeling that one day she would become a master of house fighting.
Aunt Gao looked at a loss, she didn't see where the matter was resolved
"Miss San!" Cui's mother stopped her, with a gloomy face, "Let the old lady take the money... I'm afraid it's inappropriate, and this servant will not say so."
Shen Ziqiao looked at her wonderingly, "Why can't you say this? Aren't you the housekeeper? If you have any questions, you should report them to the old lady in time."
"Third Miss, Third Miss..." Shen Ziqiao had already left calmly.
Mother Cui suffocated, and felt that this third young lady was becoming more and more outrageous. How could the younger generation count on the elder's money all day long, and still want the old lady to pay for it...
Aunt Gao stomped her feet angrily, glared at Mama Cui and snorted forcefully, then left angrily.
The two aunts, Sun and Liu, were used to being humble and submissive, and when they saw Aunt Gao leave, they followed suit.
Cui's mother calmed down the tumbling anger, took a deep breath, and walked out of Qiaoxinyuan with small steps, turned her feet, and came to De'anyuan.
Shen Ziqiao went back into the room and hummed a little song, lying on the long couch, and ate a piece of red bean cake from the short table next to her.
Lady Meng looked at her and shook her head helplessly, "Miss San, if you do what you do today, you will annoy the old lady."
"I didn't do anything. It's because she has money and no place to spend it. She wants me to pay others to spend it. Why don't you cut my flesh, let alone I have no money." Shen Ziqiao didn't care at all. The management is so beautiful that no one can catch it, but she is just an ordinary person.
It's not that anyone is born to be a housekeeper or housekeeper. Since she can't satisfy everyone, she can only satisfy herself.
So far, she's satisfied.
As for whether the old woman is satisfied or not, that is her business.
"Today is just the beginning, and I don't know what kind of trouble that screwdriver will find to embarrass the third lady." Hongyu said worriedly.
Shen Ziqiao comforted her, "The boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge, but if there is trouble, we will follow it."
"By the way." Shen Ziqiao's smiling face suddenly faded away, "Besides writing to my grandfather, there are two more people I need to contact..."
"Treasurer Zhang and Shopkeeper Fan." Mrs. Meng said understandingly.
Shen Ziqiao smiled sweetly, "Miss Meng is really amazing."
"Miss San, the Eldest Young Master is here."
