Wei Zijin handed all the servants in the yard of the third wife Lu Xiyun to Kong Wen for arrangements, and Kong Wen did not disappoint her. He arranged the places where these servants went properly, and no one complained.
"Kong Wen, the death day of Mrs. Shangshu's old lady is coming soon. I will leave this matter to you. Don't make any mistakes..." Wei Zijin ordered Kong Wen, who came to report the matter, in a deep voice.
Kong Wen nodded and bowed and replied, "Madam, please rest assured. Kong Wen has been to Shangshu Mansion for several years. These things can be handled and will not disappoint you!"
"Very good. The mansion has finally calmed down recently. I don't want to see someone making trouble below while the death of the old lady of Shangshu!"
Wei Zijin said this, his lazy expression changed, and his phoenix eyes showed a stern look. Kong Wen was shocked. He already understood the intention of her words and replied more solemnly: "Madam, Kong Wen will do his best to arrange it."
In everything, don’t let those who are ill-hearted take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the loopholes!”
Wei Zijin nodded with satisfaction. She praised Kong Wen. After seeing his orderly management of affairs in the office, she became more convinced that she had read it wrong at the beginning!
"Kong Wen, you have taken over the affairs of the mansion for a while, has anyone questioned you?" Wei Zijin changed the topic and asked thoughtfully.
Kong Wen shook his head at first, but his face was a little hesitant. When Wei Zijin saw his expression, he smiled: "Tell me, who has said more?"
"I'm not saying much. I just gave the two girls in the third lady's yard to the second lady's side. The second lady asked a few questions, asking if the slave had started to be the manager, and also asking about the relationship between slave and Kong Wu...
…”
"Oh? How did you answer?" Wei Zijin raised his eyebrows and asked back.
"I told the second wife that the only one in charge of the family is the eldest wife!" Kong Wen replied frankly. This was exactly what he said in his heart. The eldest wife looked down on him and began to let him and his eldest wife handle the affairs of the house together, and even gave him Yue Yue.
There are more and more power, but in his heart, the eldest lady is the one who is the housekeeper!
And he still remembers to report to the eldest lady after finishing his work!
"Kong Wen, you are very smart!" Wei Zijin heard his answer, his lips raised slightly, and he did not hide his repeated appreciation of him: "There are many big and small matters in the mansion, and I can't take care of it alone, so what should I do if I have some things?
, I believe you understand in your heart how some people should respond..."
Kong Wen quickly remembered the third wife's plan to plot against the eldest wife not long ago. A thought flashed quickly in his mind, and he bowed to Wei Zijin and said righteously: "Kong Wen understands!"
In fact, the second lady deliberately asked him about these things. He had already understood the second lady's intention more or less... Although the second lady did not show hostility towards the eldest lady like the third lady, she has been in the house since she lost the right to the housekeeper.
I was also much more depressed, but this does not mean that the second wife would not be able to plot!
He was suddenly promoted from a gardener, and his younger brother Kong Wu was temporarily arranged by the eldest lady to be a guard in the fourth lady's yard. They were promoted at the same time. I believe the second lady had guessed that they were the eldest lady's.
Confidant!
Although the second wife asked calmly, he was still vigilant! As the person promoted by the eldest wife himself, he could not let the second wife catch the wrong things in handling affairs in the mansion!
