Mrs. Wu was leaning on the couch, stretching out her fingers for the girl to trim her nails.
Enjoy with your eyes closed.
While listening to Mammy Niu reporting the rumors about Huo Xi, I heard that Huo Xi has not received a single message now, and no noble lady in the capital has invited her to her door.
The mood is even better.
"Well done. Reward them with some money."
"Yes." Grandma Niu responded.
He came closer and said, "At the banquet that day, many noble ladies said that they would send messages to the eldest lady and invite her to this banquet or that banquet. How popular is this old slave as a eldest lady? Isn't this a slap in the face?
?I haven’t received a single post so far.”
Wu laughed after hearing this and said: "Even if she has the blood of a noble lady, it's a pity that she has not enjoyed the blessings. Growing up in a common people's home, what kind of education can she have? She has been fishing on a fishing boat for so many years, and she can't take it off.
The fishy smell. Now that such unbearable rumors are spreading, whose wife is willing to let her daughter get close to her? She must not lead the noble ladies astray."
Aunt Niu also laughed: "No. It's better for our second young lady. She has been in the mansion since she was born and watched her father grow from a little military attache to a marquis and a prince. She was born with more prosperity.
. Only if you have to be carefully brought up by the family and have the air of a noble girl all over your body, can you be favored by the prince and become a master."
Wu's mouth was filled with a smile.
But no, when my daughter was born, there was no title in the palace.
She felt more and more that her daughter was bringing prosperity.
No, not only her father and mother were prosperous, but she herself was prosperous and walked all the way to the Crown Prince. Who was the Crown Prince? He was the future emperor, and her daughter would be very lucky in the future.
I will definitely be able to bring Wang Jie'er along in the future.
must.
Wu is not in a good mood.
The master and servant were having fun when suddenly a servant came to spread the news about the madam, and the madam restrained her again.
"Why is this?" Mrs. Wu straightened her upper body and looked at the girl who came to deliver the message.
The girl then reported the matter in detail.
When Mrs. Wu heard this, she was so angry that even a bastard came to slap her in the face!
Because she moved too much, the maid who was doing her manicure suddenly cut her flesh. Wu screamed, withdrew her hand, and with the other hand, she whipped the maid hard and slapped her to the ground.
The girl covered her face, tears soaked in her eyes, and lowered her head, not even daring to cry.
Wu cursed: "Idiot!" She was very angry.
I don’t know who I’m scolding.
Aunt Niu hurriedly waved away the people waiting in the room.
"Idiot!" Wu cursed again.
Aunt Niu followed her and comforted her: "Seventh Young Master's nanny is really greedy. From time to time, she takes things from Seventh Young Master's house to support the family, just pretending that others can't see it. No, what happened
Alright?"
The wet nurse was arranged by the madam, she obeyed her in everything, and always showed filial piety to her, so she and her madam just turned a blind eye.
Unexpectedly, something happened.
"Madam, you said that the eldest lady is deserted and not very close to the people in the house. Since she returned to the house, she has not gone to each room to check in. Why is she taking care of the seventh young master?"
"She's not in charge of Zhang Mao, she's in charge of me! Who doesn't know that I sent Zhang Mao's wet nurse? She is demonstrating to me!"
She originally thought that if someone spread those evil rumors outside, which made her miserable, the Dowager Madam would let her take charge of the family and go out to quell these rumors.
Unexpectedly, when that scoundrel bumped into Zhang Mao, Madam Ling restrained her again.
Wu was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Wang of the first house both gave birth to daughters, and since they could no longer have children, they posed no threat to her mother and son, so she didn't pay much attention to them.
There is only Zhang Mao, the only male heir in the big house. He has been raised submissively over the years and rarely goes out of the courtyard. Today he is willing to run to find someone for help.
I also found the head of that bitch.
Huo Nian came. She just had to concentrate on dealing with Huo Nian. Now Zhang Mao jumped out again. She was still wondering if the fisherman would gain.
She would never allow it.
"It is estimated that all the people in Zhang Mao Yuan will be replaced. Please make some arrangements and arrange for some people to get in. If you spend more money on those two scoundrels, I don't believe there will be any holes. If people can't get in, they still have to get their things.
Yes, the meat and vegetables in the kitchen, the monthly income received by the accountant, these are all flaws!"
Aunt Niu's eyes lit up: "Yes, I will do it now!"
One or two of them want to take off her palm? Wu narrowed her eyes and said, "In addition, you can help me go to several houses and send them notices so that they can invite me to their houses."
"But where is the madam?"
"The madam is most afraid of offending people. She can still stand in the way of two families. I'm afraid she won't be able to stop several families from inviting me to a banquet." Hum, if you want to restrain her, it depends on whether she is willing.
In Lanxiang Courtyard, Mother Ma was also discussing with Huo Xi.
"Girl, although Mrs. Wu will continue to be banned this time, I'm afraid she won't be able to be locked up."
"It's okay. It's up to her whether she's grounded or comes out. Coming out will make it easier for her to use her methods."
"Girl, we still shouldn't take it lightly. Although the two courtyards are surrounded by iron barrels, we live in the house and don't live as long as the Wu family. I'm afraid we won't be able to guard against it."
Huo Xi nodded, "Things at the entrance and things for use in the house should be carefully checked before use. Especially Nian'er's place."
"Yes, I gave them instructions. However, we have to do something and we can't be so passive."
Huo Xi thought for a while: "Well, you asked the Duke to return my mother's dowry and compensate us with 120,000 taels of silver. The news was sent to the Wu family, and the Duke was returned to me and Nian.
I also told her about my son’s creation of a large village.”
"Girl, are you trying to anger Mrs. Wu?"
"Exactly. The Wu family has no natal family to rely on now. Concubine Zhang's status is also low and she cannot help her. She thinks that the better my sister and my brother live, and the better the Duke treats us, the more she will be unable to sit still.
. Just irritate her and force her. When she makes a mistake and the Duke and the Dowager have exhausted their patience with her, they will make up their mind to really deal with her."
She can just watch from the sidelines.
Mrs. Wu always has to deal with it, we can't keep guarding her like this, it's disgusting.
"By the way, send someone to tell the concierge that Mrs. Wu and the Duke of Guo have banned the Wu family. Any messages for her are not allowed to be sent to the Wu family. Otherwise, the whole family will be kicked out of the house.
.”
"Girl, it's better to cut off all the letters and posts sent to Mrs. Wu. Over the years, she cut off the tokens that the Duke of Guo sent to Mr. Shangyong. We can just repay them in kind."
"But over there at the concierge..."
"Don't worry, girl, this matter will be taken care of by the old slave."
Then I don’t know how Mother Ma subdued the concierge, and all the letters and posts sent to Wu from outside the house were actually sent to Lanxiang Courtyard.
Huo Xi couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Grandma Ma.
As for Wu, she was still waiting for the ladies who were friends with her outside to send her a message and rescue her.
Little did they know, I didn't receive a single hair.
And Zhang Mao's side was replaced from top to bottom. The nanny and the people waiting in the courtyard were all kicked out naked. Except for a piece of wood, everything was replaced. The people who were replaced were not the people she arranged.
They were all manpower arranged by Mrs. Wu. None of the manpower Wu ordered privately was used.
Wu was sulking when she heard that the Duke of Guo had actually returned Li's dowry to those two scoundrels, and also paid them 120,000 taels in compensation!
Not to mention, one person also gave a Dazhuangzi as a gift!
And her son and daughter have never had any private property! Why do those two scoundrels have it!
