The first meeting lasted for an hour before it ended.
This meeting established the purpose of everyone's struggle and also determined the name.
After they left quietly, only Nanny Yi and Chen Xiangwan were left in the room, Yixuan wrapped up the snacks and put them in Chen Xiangwan's palm. "Take it to Jiaochi Garden, those two boys were slandering when they were growing up."
Chen Xiangwan scolded her, "Nurse is just so spoiled with them, she is not afraid of being spoiled by them."
"Yes, there is a sour smell from this far away. By the way, the thing you said about finding an old gentleman for him has begun to emerge recently."
"Oh?" Chen Xiangwan moved closer. "Which one is it from our house?"
"It's not from our mansion. It's someone outside who did something wrong, came to plead guilty, and offered to be a servant of the mansion. Let me take a look, this person is a talent, I'm afraid he has suffered a little bit of smear. I have to come to plead guilty."
Yixuan sneered, and flicked the dim sum crumbs off her fingers.
"Oh, the one who came here to apologize recently, did something wrong? According to the rumors a few days ago, it seems that an outside steward, because of the unfavorable temporary management, caused a heavy loss of goods. The steward's grandmother He got angry because he wanted to punish him, because he saw that this person had been working hard for decades, so he agreed to his request to be a sweeping slave in the mansion. This person seems to have been arranged recently? "
Yixuan answered, "I work as an old servant sweeping the floor in the family temple in the backyard. How can an outside steward who has been under control for decades make mistakes so easily. In fact, everyone is clear about this matter. It's true, but no one is willing to expose it. After all, the person in the second room is now the grandmother in charge. There are many fat servants outside, and there are her brothers, nephews and the like around the manager.
It is said that the second bedroom has become more and more disreputable over the years, and has made a lot of things in the mansion empty. Although the long house marquis can support the man who owns the mansion, I am afraid that it will be nothing at that time. "
When it comes to the situation, Yixuan speaks in an orderly manner.
"If not, how could that Ninth Master have ended up like this? After all, he is a decent master, but he has been suppressed by various houses and courtyards. Although the long house does not have a serious wife, there are three Madam of extraordinary background. Nanny, those three ladies, do you really let the second wife act like this?"
Yixuan sneered, "Even though the three wives are from slightly better backgrounds, they can only watch the power of the Second Household grow up. What are they? At best, they are just the three women of the Marquis. If you don't get the title of Mrs. Marquis At that time, these three could only be unwilling, but had to succumb to their fate. Just like the Aunt Mei you served, it is said that in the early years, she was also very good at jumping. Since the former Mrs. Hou left, , not honestly shrinking down!
The second room seemed to be in control of some things that could control the long room. In addition, with the backing of the ancestors, an easy person would not be able to shake her position. "
Chen Xiangwan understood it clearly, "So if the head of the house wants to control the middle class in this mansion, he still has to appoint Mrs. Hou Ye to be in charge of the house. The same is true of the Hou Ye, who has been fighting outside for so many years, and the family members The children don't seem to love them much, and the house is still in a mess, and I don't know what these men are trying to figure out!"
Chen Xiangwan's tone was slightly contemptuous. In fact, she was really disappointed with the man from the rich family. In the early days, my father was a person who only wanted to sow seeds and enjoy himself.
When I came to this mansion, after seeing too many irresponsible men, my impression of men became worse and worse.
"Wanwan, there are many good men in this world, but we haven't met them." Yixuan was afraid that her daughter would be extreme, so she followed her instructions.
"Mother, I know, don't talk about these people, that old servant who sweeps the floor, how can we get him to Master Jiu?"
"You can think about this matter on your own, or you can discuss it with Master Jiu. I think that if the manager is capable, if he can follow Master Jiu, he can teach him a lot."
Chen Xiang listened and nodded secretly.
This matter is also true.
After all, it is impossible for a person in charge of the Shanghou Mansion to be in charge, his ability, and his insight.
"I'll ask someone to learn more about it in order to make a detailed plan."
Seeing her daughter's comprehension, Yixuan nodded slightly, "Go ahead, send some snacks, and by the way, let Master Jiu make up his mind."
Niang also emphasized that Murong Xiude should follow suit.
At this moment, Chen Xiangwan, who was originally casual, finally realized something.
"Mother, you have repeatedly asked him to think the same way. From now on, do you want to support him and gain a foothold in this backyard?"
Yixuan nodded lightly, looking at her daughter with complicated eyes, "Wanwan, which young master in this house do you think is more promising and more likely to inherit the throne in the future?"
Chen Xiangwan frowned, "Who, it can't be the turn of the ninth master now. With the taboo committed by his biological mother, I'm afraid it will be difficult to turn over in this lifetime."
Yixuan shook her head. "Wanwan, don't say something too early. No one can know the ending until the last moment."
Chen Xiangwan raised her head and looked at her mother in shock. The latter just waved his hand. "Go ahead. After talking for a while, it's late. Send it quickly so that you can rest early."
Daughter, after all, it's still too young. Even though she is talented, but her age and experience are there, there are some things that she can't see right now.
Watching Yixuan leave, Chen Xiangwan's eyebrows were still tightly knit.
Until now, she still doesn't understand why mother is so optimistic about that poor Jiu Ye.
Even if it was from the wife of the former Hou Ye, it can be regarded as the serious master of this mansion.
But because of his mother's reputation, and with so many people in the house suppressing and staring at him, how could he get a position.
"Forget it, it's better to send the things quickly, and don't worry too much about other things."
Having made up her mind, Chen Xiangwan went to Jiaochi Garden with the two packs of dim sum in her sleeves.
The Jiaochi Garden in the past was actually huge. Every time she came here, Chen Xiangwan couldn't help thinking that when Mrs. Hou Ye was alive, this place was unprecedentedly grand.
Perhaps, as grand as it was back then, it is now so decadent.
"However, this place has never been invaded by people in the mansion. Moreover, Mrs. Hou lived in such a far place back then, she really likes quietness."
The Jiaochi Garden is the farthest in the entire Houfu.
The lanterns fluttered leisurely, and the figure of La was long, and the shadows of the trees looked hideous and terrifying under the candlelight. Occasionally, some birds screamed suddenly.
Fluttering, frightened people trembled all over. Unfortunately, the little girl walked forward calmly.
Pushing open the small door of Jiaochi Garden, only a flicker of candlelight, and a thin figure hurriedly rushed in front of him.
"Sister Wanwan, it's not good, something happened to Master Jiu... I have a fever, my whole body is cold and I keep talking nonsense, and my teeth are still closed. It's been a day and I haven't eaten at all... If Master Jiu has gone, what will Xiao Qi do? ?”
