The eldest princess shouted angrily: "Mr. Shen, you are bold!"
"Second brother and sister say that, I really can't die ten thousand times! And ask mother to be the master for my daughter-in-law!" Fang's face turned pale, and she knelt down at the feet of the Eldest Princess.
Yang Shi was also taken aback by Shen Xinyan's boldness, staring at her as if seeing a ghost, but there was an uncontrollable excitement spreading wildly in her heart.
Tear it, tear it harder, it's better to tear off all the skin of Fang's bitch!
A widow, dishonestly nestled in her own room to mourn her deceased husband and raise her children, and even clung to her husband and refused to let go. This is more than that, the men are already dead, but she is still showing the spectrum of Mrs. Shizi, her eyes are above the top, and her eyes are clean.
Pooh! That is to say, the Lord doesn't like to argue with her. If it is serious, there will be nothing about her. The sky in this mansion will change.
No, maybe the day is slowly changing...
"Mrs. Chen, you are also a woman from a rich family. How can you say such obscenities? I have misjudged you in the past!" The mother-in-law knelt all over the floor.
Shen Xinyan didn't notice it, and met the eldest princess's angry eyes, and said calmly: "I'm just telling the truth, my sister-in-law has died ten thousand times and I can't do it, but I know there are gossips outside, but I don't know." I will take half of your face into consideration. My sister-in-law lives in seclusion, and the house is quiet, so naturally I can't hear it. But the two masters in our house have to walk outside."
"If someone with a heart makes trouble out of it and arranges some unsavory words, which will cause trouble to the two lords, I'm afraid it will damage the reputation of the Duke's Mansion. Don't worry, mother, and think carefully about whether my words are justified."
The eldest princess sneered: "I didn't know, but you have a clever mouth!"
"Daughter-in-law is just telling the truth."
"Everyone go out, let me be quiet for a while, no one is worrying!" The eldest princess gave her a sullen look, and waved at everyone in annoyance.
Shen Xinyan bowed, and left without saying a word.
Yang followed her and walked out.
Fang bit her lips unwillingly, and wanted to say something more, but the eldest princess had already entered the room with the help of the maid. She was extremely annoyed, twisting the handkerchief tightly.
She was careless today, and she was forced to this point by Shen Shi. It was also she who underestimated Mrs. Shen. She thought she was a quiet one, but she didn't expect that she was hiding a traitor in her heart, and she was just waiting for a good time to deal with her.
"Second sister-in-law is really impressive today!" Yang sighed.
Shen Xinyan glanced at her, and the corner of her mouth curled up slightly: "The third sibling has always made me dare not underestimate."
Yang Shi choked on her, and was a little speechless. If it was a rabbit that was in a hurry, would it bite
With a clear cough to cover up the embarrassment, she asked what she cared most about: "Second sister-in-law, do you think mother will listen to your words, and will really directly dial down the quotas in our courtyards in the future?"
"Mother's thoughts are something you and I can guess." Shen Xinyan smiled slightly, but did not answer.
This third younger sibling is a good-for-nothing person who can't afford it early, and she is also a weed. Although she doesn't like the Fang family, it doesn't mean that she is willing to have a close friendship with this one. It's better to keep some distance from each other.
As for whether the eldest princess will comply with what she said, the answer is yes. No matter how much the Eldest Princess loves the Fang family, what she values most is the British government. Today, if she didn't bring out the fact that the son had received the money from the public in advance, but directly proposed to return the proportions of each court to the control of each court, the eldest princess might not agree.
With the foreshadowing in front, the eldest princess naturally thinks more.
Of course, she didn't need to explain these to Yang Shi.
I don't know which ancestor created the management method of the British government's inner house. This highly centralized method is indeed quite conducive to improving the power of those in power. It is estimated that this is why the British government's back house is better than most others. The reason to be clean.
This method has high requirements for managers. If the mistress is shrewd and capable, the inner house under the pressure of power will naturally be orderly and efficient; on the contrary, the chaos in the inner house will be deeper than ordinary people.
The Fang family is the candidate for the future mistress of the Duke's Mansion carefully selected by the eldest princess, so there is no doubt about her shrewdness and ability. However, she has a fatal feature—that is, her name is not justified.
If she is still Mrs. Shizi, neither the Yang family nor anyone in the mansion will have any objection to her taking power. But now she is not. Without the identity of the wife of the eldest son, but relying on the favor of the eldest princess, she is in charge of the palace. How can she be able to convince the public
The first one is Yang's dissatisfaction.
Moreover, as the saying goes: "Whoever eats and listens to whom, although the servants are in charge of errands in various courtyards, the salary is still collected from the public. In this way, the word loyalty is not very reliable."
In her previous life, Shen Xinyan suffered a lot in this regard. In the Funing Academy where she works, nearly half of the servants are from Fang's side!
And the Fang family, relying on the unique highly centralized internal house management of the British government, has established a firm foothold in the mansion step by step, and thus has the capital to make trouble in the mansion.
In this life, Shen Xinyan cut off her possibility from the root! In the center, she can continue to palm, but it is unlikely to be as smooth as in her previous life.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Yang knew that it was impossible for her to get a definite answer from her mouth. She curled her lips secretly, and was about to say more, when she suddenly saw Shen Xinyan's footsteps paused, and then hurried forward, that The eager look really puzzled her.
She raised her eyes and looked forward, and saw a small figure crashing towards Shen Xinyan like a small cannonball. She took a closer look and recognized that small figure was Wei Yingzhi, the fourth girl from Shen Xinyan.
She shook her head amusedly, but after seeing each other all night, these four girls are quite clingy to her mother!
"Mother..."
"Fourth girl, slow down, be careful not to fall!"
The little girl's cries of joy came from afar, Shen Xinyan's eyes were slightly red, her body was trembling with excitement, and she stared at the little figure that was getting closer and closer.
The little girl was about six or seven years old, with two flower buds tied on her head, wearing a red butterfly jacket, and a pair of big black eyes embedded in a flushed peach face, flung herself into her arms coquettishly.
Shen Xinyan opened her stiff arms to hold her, and the moment her soft and warm body embraced her, tears almost fell from her eyes.
"Ying'er..."
"Mom, it hurts so much to hold Ying'er!" Jiaojiao's humming sound was like a warm current, gently soothing her heart.
"I'm sorry, it's my mother's fault." She lowered her head slowly, looking at the clear black and white eyes of her daughter in her arms.
Little Yingzhi's big eyes fluttered, and she suddenly showed a sweet smile, and then "baji" kissed her on the face: "Mom is the best!"
Shen Xinyan's throat was choked up badly, and she quickly concealed her ups and downs. After a while, she squeezed the little girl's soft, fleshy hands and asked softly, "Is there anyone who is obedient with my grandmother?"
"Of course there are obedient ones. My grandmother and aunt even praised me!" The little girl puffed up her chest, with a proud look of 'I'm very obedient and I'm the best'.
Shen Xinyan had a gentle expression, pinched her face lovingly, and boasted without hesitation: "Mother's Ying'er is so good!"
As soon as the words were finished, I was so happy to see the little girl smiling with crooked eyebrows and eyes.
Looking at this sweet and bright smile, Shen Xinyan only felt her heart softened, and she couldn't help asking softly, "Can you eat breakfast obediently today?"
"Of course I did! I ate a bowl of porridge, a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and a piece of walnut cake more than Cousin Hui. My grandmother said that as long as I eat on time every day, I will soon be as tall as my uncle." The girl was even more proud, pointing at the things she used for breakfast with her fat fingers, she looked so cute no matter how she looked.
Shen Xinyan stared at her with a smile, without disturbing her, and asked her a few interesting things about her grandmother's house from time to time, which made the little girl's eyes sparkle with excitement.
Shen Xinyan took her daughter's little hand and walked slowly towards Funing Yuan, the little girl's delicate and sweet voice swayed all the way.
"... Cousin Hui knows how to make purses. She said she would make one for me after a while. By the way, mother, look, this is the butterfly pendant that Cousin Hui gave me. Does it look good?"
Shen Xinyan lowered her head and saw that there was indeed a delicate butterfly pendant in the little girl's palm, Suiyun smiled and said, "It's pretty."
"I knew that Cousin Hui wouldn't give it to me if she wasn't pretty. Cousin Hui said she would make one for me when she learned how to tie a net, so that I could tie it on a fan. Cousin Hui also said..."
The little girl kept saying 'cousin Hui', but the smile on Shen Xinyan's face subconsciously subsided.
The cousin Hui that Xiao Yingzhi spoke of was the eldest daughter of Bo Jing'an, and her niece, Shen Huiran, was two years older than her daughter, and she was eight years old this year.
Although she doesn't like the elder sister-in-law very much, she loves this niece very much. Once, she even thought about kissing and getting closer. No, in her previous life, not only did she have such thoughts, but she also acted on them repeatedly.
It was her wish in her previous life that her most beloved niece would marry her most precious son.
However, her hope was completely shattered when Zhou Guanning appeared.
And after this...
She shook her head, forcing herself not to think about those things in her previous life.
"Does Ying'er like Cousin Hui very much?" Pulling her daughter to sit on the imperial concubine's couch, she asked softly, smacking the little girl's forehead.
"I like it! Cousin Hui is the best! Give me everything that looks good, is delicious, and is fun." The little girl nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice.
"The fourth girl and Miss Hui have such a good relationship as sisters. Before returning home, the fourth girl held Miss Hui's hand and insisted on pulling Cousin Hui home. Mrs. Uncle laughed and said, 'Give Cousin Hui to your brother. As a daughter-in-law, this way I can accompany you home'." Mother Sun smiled and said.
Shen Xinyan's smile completely subsided when she heard her last words.
She glanced at Nanny Sun expressionlessly, and said indifferently: "Mommy is not young anymore, why can't she tell what to say and what not to say."
Grandma Sun's face froze, and she knelt down to plead guilty.
