2206. Chapter 2206 Ingenious plan to secure the back house [10]
Aunt Xiang stayed up all the time, so people were always paying attention to Tingtaoyuan. If there was any movement, they had to report it in time.
As soon as she heard that Sister-in-law Wu had come to ask for an audience, she got up immediately, but she was not in a hurry to go out. Instead, she waited for a while, as if she had rested and got up again after hearing Sister-in-law Wu's request for an audience.
After a while, Aunt Xiang went out to see Sister-in-law Wu.
Aunt Chi and several cooks were kneeling aside. Aunt Chi was not polite, so naturally she asked Sister-in-law Wu to report to Aunt Xiang.
Sister-in-law Wu is quick-talking, clear-minded, and speaks eloquently, so it’s not difficult for Grandma Xiang to listen.
She had asked people to inquire about it before, and now that Sister-in-law Wu said it, it became more real.
Aunt Xiang's face relaxed a little and she nodded, "In that case, it's your fate. The prince seems to be in a good mood today and doesn't deal with you like before. You can go back and rest now."
Sister-in-law Wu raised her head and glanced quickly at Aunt Xiang. The lantern under the porch gave off a dim light, illuminating Aunt Xiang's unpredictable appearance.
Sister-in-law Wu said flatteringly: "Aunt Xiang, Aunt Chi also wants to ask how the kitchen is..."
The kitchen was smashed to pieces by Wen Songzhi, so someone must take the responsibility, otherwise we won't be able to have breakfast tomorrow.
You can have spare bowls and chopsticks, but not this pot. I had to go to the blacksmith shop overnight to buy a pot.
Aunt Xiang hummed, "It's okay to ask, I should have let you pay the compensation in the first place."
When Sister-in-law Wu heard this, her legs softened and she said, "Auntie Xiang, please don't, let's..."
"Okay, why would Madam let you accompany me? God has it, it's not easy for anyone." Aunt Xiang glanced at Aunt Chi who was a little further away, and then glanced at Sister-in-law Wu in front of her, her eyes were a little complicated.
.
Sister-in-law Wu naturally thanked her immediately and said that some items had to be made overnight. Could you please give her the right cards first so that she could go out to do some errands?
He nodded to Aunt Chi and said, "In that case, come with me." He let the others go back first and ignored Aunt Chi.
Aunt Chi's face was dull, and she was beaten so much that she had no face to see anyone, so she naturally didn't care. She was grateful to Sister-in-law Wu for helping her, and went back to recuperate.
Sister-in-law Wu followed Aunt Xiang to a small side room in the main courtyard, which was a temporary resting place for Aunt Xiang. It was also where some items used by Mrs. Cui to handle housework were placed, such as playing cards, etc.
Sister-in-law Wu followed her in uneasily, not daring to raise her head, with her hands and feet tied up, and she was very cautious.
Aunt Xiang glanced at her and said, "You are from the Wu Rui family, right?"
Sister-in-law Wu nodded quickly, "Ms. Xiang still knows about us."
Xiang Mammy smiled and said, "Following Madam, what can you not know? Don't say you are from Wu Rui's family, even your family members, several boys, and who your mother-in-law is, I also want to know clearly."
Otherwise, it would be so easy to serve in front of the madam. To follow the madam, luck is one thing, but more importantly, you have to be capable. Otherwise, after a few things, the madam will not use it anymore.
Sister-in-law Wu naturally understood and immediately complimented: "Aunt Xiang is Madam's think tank. It's not that I said inappropriate things. Half of the major events in the back house of this mansion are our Aunt Xiang's ideas."
Although this statement was not very appropriate, it was useful to Aunt Xiang. She waved her hand and said, "Don't say it again."
