Chapter 10 It is said that Mrs. Hou has a trick up her sleeve
Su Yunting didn’t give Jingniang a chance to refute, and ran away after spraying her.
The crowd came and went in a roar.
In the main courtyard, only Gu Nanxi, Su Yunyan, Su Xuanming and Jingniang were left.
Jing Niang’s back was straightened and she was craning her neck. From her hair to her toes, she showed her stubbornness.
"Madam, did you do this on purpose? Call them all over and put pressure on me so that I can retreat in spite of the difficulties?"
Jing Niang walked slowly to Gu Nanxi, Qing Lingling His eyes showed the confidence of "I have seen through the conspiracy".
"Madam, I have never been afraid of difficulties. I can withstand pressure and stand out among a group of brothers, so I am naturally not afraid of things like this in the Hou Mansion!"
"From today onwards , I will cover all the food and servant expenses of the Hou Mansion! Even if I spend all the money in the family, I will not give up lightly!"
Jing Niang strode out of the main courtyard like a soldier on an expedition.
Su Xuanming fell in love with her courageous and resolute temperament, so he naturally followed her.
Su Yunyan, who stayed behind, lay worriedly on Gu Nanxi's knees: "Aniang, what should I do? Jingniang is going to fight back!"
Gu Nanxi closed He closed his eyes and took a sip of the dried papaya soup. The original owner was thin, and even after giving birth to a daughter and two sons, the place was still as flat as an airport.
Drink some papaya soup and take more tonic.
"Perseverance in the wrong direction is commonly known as never looking back until you hit the wall." Gu Nanxi said leisurely.
Perseverance is a virtue, but perseverance without correct understanding is a roadblock in life.
There once was a boy in Gu Nanxi's class who was very talented in literature. He could get full marks in history and politics, but single digits in physics and chemistry.
But he firmly believes that boys should study science. As long as they study hard, they will definitely improve their science scores.
Unfortunately, reality teaches him how to behave.
If he studied literature, he would definitely be in the Top 10, but he had to study theory and failed to pass a single line.
Jing Niang is just like this boy. She doesn't even understand what's going on in the Hou Mansion, so she just rushes in.
Su Yunyan opened a pair of ignorant eyes and looked at Gu Nanxi trustingly: "Aniang must have some tricks up her sleeve. I don't believe that Jingniang can find out the five palms of your hands!"
< br>Gu Nanxi touched Su Yunyan's bun lovingly. This child's mind was full of Zhai Dou's thoughts, but he didn't have Zhai Dou's IQ.
How can I have any backup plan?
It’s just a matter of lying flat and rotting.
Anyway, the Yongchang Hou Mansion is a broken ship that is about to sink to the bottom. If Jing Niang is allowed to cause trouble, what's the big deal?
Jing Niang’s resolute actions aroused strong backlash from the people in the Hou Mansion.
For a time, Yongchang Hou Mansion once again ranked on the gossip list of the capital, and became a tea house, restaurant, and a joke at high-end tea parties.
"Hey, that's so ridiculous. Yesterday, Marquis Yongchang came to me to buy eggs. He didn't want fresh eggs, but wanted the ones that were about to stink."
In the tea shop, a group of people Merchants were having a tea fight together, and during this period they couldn't help but talk about the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, which was in full swing.
"Isn't this going to save you from fire and water? These expired futures of yours are almost going to be used to pickle salted eggs."
The merchant at the beginning laughed: "That's it. One penny for each, They were all sold to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion. By the way, what happened to Mrs. Yongchang Marquis? She shocked the whole capital back then. "
His friend handed him a cup of tea? : " You went out to look for goods and missed several big scenes. The eldest son of the Yongchang Hou Mansion was obsessed with the medicinal material Xi Shi, and made many jokes. Mrs. Hou didn't do anything and actually gave the stewardship to the medicinal material Xi Shi. "The fat businessman was shocked. He accidentally dropped the teacup on the ground: "That's ridiculous! Have they ever invited a matchmaker, exchanged name cards, or negotiated a marriage?"
"None of them."
< br>
The fat businessman was speechless: "Even ordinary people are not so unruly."
"No. As soon as Xishi, the medicinal herb manager, was the housekeeper, he moved the business management system to the Marquis Mansion."
The fat businessman understood: "No wonder the servants of Yongchang Mansion don't want the good eggs, but want the rotten eggs. Xishi, the medicinal herb, sets the purchase price of eggs at two cents. If the servants want to get kickbacks, they naturally choose Buy it cheaply.”
“Although the Yongchang Hou Mansion is not as prosperous as it was back then, it has lasted for several generations. The servants in the house are basically family members. The resentment spread all over the house."
The fat businessman sighed: "Tsk, tsk, this is the only one who has leaked out of the family."
The merchants chatted loudly, and the guests in the private room upstairs listened to all the content.
Among them, there is a private room full of female relatives.
Mrs. Cheng Guogong picked up a Xichuan lactose lion one by one, put it in her mouth, swallowed it, and then slowly opened her mouth.
"I see that Mrs. Yongchang Hou is not as strategist as you said. Now, the stewardship has been lost, the Yongchang Hou Mansion has lost its reputation, and the two have not separated."
Zhen Guo General Mrs. Niu lay lazily on the soft couch and said lightly: "Just wait and see, Mrs. Hou must have some tricks up her sleeve."
Mrs. Ji Guogong took a sip of tea and said: "My mother-in-law gave me an analysis last night. Gu Nanxi always takes one step at a time and sees ten steps at a time. There is no way this matter can just be settled like this."
But Mrs. Chengguo didn't believe it: "What else can we do? That Jingniang's face is as thick as a city wall. Even if the whole city is talking about it, it can't stop her from throwing herself at this person." Tian Fugui wants her to retreat in spite of the difficulties, but Mrs. Hou’s plan will probably come to nothing.”
The wife of General Zhenguo gave her a lactose lion and said coquettishly: “We just want to watch the show.” After all, this Yongchang Marquis Mansion is not yours or mine.”
Next door to the women’s private room is a group of students from Songshan Academy.
"Brother Xuanming, I heard that your lover is the head of your house. Come to think of it, you have a lot of room in your hands." A suave student shook his fan and glanced sideways at Su Xuanming.
"Brother Shaoyan, this, that, the rules in the family have changed, I might..." Su Xuanming hesitated, not daring to say it clearly.
A tall and strong student hugged Su Xuanming: "Brother Xuanming, you really love to joke. How can a businesswoman dare to attack the Marquis Mansion? There must be someone among them. Brother Xuan Ming’s handiwork is so good!”
Some students on the side shouted, “Ten clams and five bowls of quail soup.” Take all."
The boy bowed his waist and reminded in a low voice: "Master, at this time of year, a bowl of quail soup costs dozens of quails, and it is also expensive. . "
Su Xuanming broke into cold sweat when he heard what the boy said: "Brother Shaoyan, brother Fatian, we are small and can't eat more."
< br>
Li Shaoyan said nothing and closed his eyes to take a nap.
The tall and strong Wu Fatian raised his eyebrows: "This is worthy of Brother Xuanming! Waiter, serve."
"Okay, my guest." The waiter said quickly He ran downstairs, leaving Su Xuanming holding his purse and wanting to cry without tears.
My dear friends, a clam with a thousand coins has its prototype.
Song Renzong once had a banquet, and there were twenty-eight clams on the table. At that time, one clam was worth a thousand coins, and Song Renzong was so distressed that he twitched.
