Chapter 193: Heavy Profits

Jiang Yixi asked the stewards to step aside, and Grandma Wu whispered about the dispute between Meng Yue and Meng Hua.

Meng Hua scolded Meng Yue for being shameless and seducing her foreigner, but blaming her mother for the trouble. Meng Yue burst into tears and argued with her, and Meng Hua slapped her in anger.

The second lady lived in a separate room and Jiang Yixi was pregnant, so neither of them paid much attention to it.

Linxiang asked Meng Yue if she wanted to ask the old lady to make the decision, but Meng Yue was unwilling. He also said that she was living under someone else's roof, had already caused a big trouble, and made her father, siblings unhappy, and was unwilling to cause trouble... Linxiang had to accompany her back to the yard.

Jiang Yixi was so sad that she was slapped in the face for not fighting, but she just gave in.

Fu succeeded in raising Meng Yue to waste, and was thinking about how to take care of Meng Cimo and how to raise Meng Ciyu to be outstanding, so she did not have much energy to take care of Meng Hua.

Meng Hua's impulsive and irritable temperament is very similar to that of Duke Cheng. Today he was going to speak nonsense in Fu'an Hall, but Meng Ciyu suppressed him, and now he comes here to make trouble again.

When it was time for lunch, Mrs. Meng left.

Jiang Yixi finished her meal and rested for half an hour. When she woke up, Wang Hao's wife had been waiting on the porch for two-quarters of an hour.

Wang Hao's wife is in her thirties and looks very neat.

Wang Hao earned a lot of money from his old father-in-law and bought a second-class house. Wang Hao's wife was not allowed to be seen by the Fu family, so she stayed at home with Fu Qingfu.

The couple were extremely happy when they heard that the eldest grandma had become the head of the house and asked her to be the housekeeper. This was the trust that the prince and the eldest grandma had in their couple.

I thought that they would be marginalized when the old Duke passed away, but they didn't expect that the Fu family would be stepped down and the eldest grandmother would directly take charge of the inner courtyard.

Jiang Yixi took Grandma Wu, Linxiang, and Wang Hao's wife to the inner court meeting hall.

Jiang Yixi didn't have much energy to take care of Zhongfu recently, so she asked Aunt Wu and Linxiang to help take care of it.

Especially Linxiang, who is cheerful, fierce, and absolutely loyal. She understands the people and affairs of the Meng family and focuses on training her. When Linxiang gets older in the future, if she and Meng Qingshan are willing, they may not be allowed to serve as stewards of the inner court.

If Shuizhu from Huzhuang is transferred over, the people around Jiang Yixi will be enough. Also, Aunt Guo, who was wrongly accused by Fu, will be allowed to return to her previous position.

Halfway through, Meng Yue's girl came to report that Meng Yue was in poor health and could not go to the meeting hall today.

In the west corner of the inner courtyard of the meeting hall, there were more than twenty people standing in the courtyard. All the former junior and senior managers were here, most of them looked nervous, and a few of them looked angry because they might have heard the news.

There were more than a dozen people standing outside the meeting hall, waiting for their successors. The previous nine deputy stewards were not moved, not only because their performance was acceptable, but also because they had been suppressed by Fu's confidants.

Mrs. Meng was sitting on the Arhat bed in the living room drinking tea, while Nanny Ji and Hongye were sitting on the brocade stools next to them. There were also several big-bodied and round-waisted women standing there, who were responsible for beating people in the outer courtyard.

Mrs. Meng Er said with a smile, "Cimo's wife, come and sit down. Some old guys haven't seen the situation clearly yet, so they're fanning the flames to start a fire."

Jiang Yixi smiled and said to Linxiang, "Go out and collect all the pairs of cards and redistribute them."

Now she was afraid of making a noise, so she asked a few girls and women to go out to collect her, instead of letting those people come in to pay her.

Whether those people wanted it or not, they were dealt the right hand.

Linxiang, on behalf of Jiang Yixi, told them who was responsible for what errand, and gave them the cards.

Immediately there was shouting in the yard, and some people were dissatisfied and wanted to come in to question the grandma and the second wife. The women who beat people came to the rescue and beat a few of the troublemakers, and then the outside calmed down.

Jiang Yixi went to the door and said a few words. She felt uncomfortable again, leaving Linxiang and Nanny Wu to share the work with the second lady, while she went back to Fusheng Residence to rest.

As soon as he returned, Shui Ling reported, "People from Fuqingyuan came to inform that the madam said she was not feeling well, and the masters had their own meals in the evening."

Jiang Yixi was leaning on the kang to rest.

She sat up when she heard the flowers chirping in the yard.

She asked Huahua to go to the main courtyard to investigate the situation, wondering if she heard anything.

Huahuajing, knowing that she is Jiang Yixi's little darling and not liked by Madam Fu, never goes to the main courtyard during the day. If she wants to hear what's going on there, she always goes to the courtyard close to the main courtyard.

It jumped on the tread board, kept a certain distance from Jiang Yixi, and meowed, "From the morning to now, I only hear Mrs. Fu crying, crying, crying, and Duke Cheng Guo coaxing, coaxing, coaxing. Hum, it's disgusting."

It’s annoying and not fun.”

Seeing the little thing's impatient expression, Jiang Yixi coaxed it a few words and promised to let it go play in the forest for two days before going to see Li Zhenbao.

The little thing became happy and agreed to listen in the corner if nothing happened.

Jiang Yixi secretly snorted. The old Duke did not dare to tell Duke Cheng that Fu secretly helped Concubine Zhao and the Zhennan Marquis Mansion. Instead, he told how Fu harmed Meng Yue and Meng Cimo. Not only did Duke Cheng not blame Fu,

On the contrary, she felt that she had been wronged.

It is true that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather.

Jiang Yixi missed Jiang Chen's father even more. After Hu's death, he did not remarry, not only to miss Hu, but also for the sake of a pair of children...

Before dinner, the guard girl's surprised voice came, "The prince is back."

This sound made the quiet Fushengju immediately become noisy and cheerful, and the birds in the birdcage began to sing.

Tweet started to recite love poems again, "The so-called beauty is on the water side, there is a beautiful woman in the north..."

The voice of the girl-in-law said, "I have met the prince."

Jiang Xiju stood up and walked out the door.

Seeing Jiang Yixi, the smile on Meng Cimo's face was brighter than the red sunset.

He walked a few steps quickly and entered the house hand in hand.

As soon as he entered the house, Meng Cimo hugged Jiang Yixi into his arms, which scared Nanny Wu and several girls to avoid the west side of the room.

Meng Cimo kissed Jiang Yixi's cheek, his lips rested on her ear, and said softly, "Xixi, thank you. You don't know how great your contribution is this time..."

I didn't dare to say anything here, so the two of them chatted for a while and asked the girl to serve Meng Cimo to clean her hands and face.

After dinner, after sending the servants away, Meng Cimo briefly talked about what happened during the hunt.

The emperor summoned Prince Ping, who hugged the emperor's legs and cried sadly, which made the emperor feel a little sad. The meeting did not last long, only more than two and a quarter hours, but it was of great significance. The emperor's dissatisfaction with Prince Ping and Concubine Qu was much less.

The emperor did not see Qu Concubine, perhaps because of the incident between the prince and Miss Zhao Wu, which reminded him of his previous unhappiness...

Although this is a pity, Concubine Zhao and the Zhennan Hou Mansion suffered more serious losses. Not only did they fail to prevent the emperor from meeting Prince Ping, they also lost a girl and face.

"In order to prevent the emperor from meeting Prince Ping and Concubine Qu, the Zhennan Marquis Mansion made great efforts and would rather push Fu out. I don't know what Fu's considerations were. She knew that doing so would bring displeasure to the head of the Meng family, so she did it anyway...
