As soon as Dan Yang put down the wolf hair in his hand, Grandma Zhou and Zizhu were lifting the bamboo curtain and entering the study.
She glanced at it, stood up and said with a smile:
"Why are you here, mama? Did Zizhu just get careless and bump into you when she went out, so you want me to punish her?"
Zizhu was stunned when he heard this.
"Huh? Princess, how did you guess..."
At this time, Danyang had already turned around the desk and sat down at the Eight Immortals table.
She looked up at Zizhu, and ordered with a slight smile:
"Go and dry your hair first. Or just wash it with hot water again? Go and come back quickly."
Hearing this, Zizhu reached out to touch his forehead and ears in a hurry.
Sure enough, I completely forgot to take care of my head while changing clothes. It was still wet at this time, and the strands of hair stuck to the temples. You can even touch tea stems among them!
She smiled sheepishly, nodded and said:
"I know the princess, I will come as soon as you go."
After sending Zizhu away, Danyang silently raised his hand and asked Aunt Zhou to sit across from him.
While refilling tea for himself and Grandma Zhou, he smiled and asked:
"Mommy, you are here to talk to me about something urgent, right? Just say so."
Actually, from her point of view. Ever since she returned home two days ago and started "packing up" all of Aunt Feng's confidants and others to be sent back to the Duke's mansion, Aunt Zhou probably wanted to have a chat with her.
To be able to hold on until now is really a sign of patience.
Nanny Zhou was still a little hesitant in her heart, not knowing how to speak.
Unexpectedly, Princess Danyang would directly challenge her and get straight to the point as soon as they met!
"Princess, you are really..."
Nanny Zhou didn't know whether she was more happy or worried. The mixed taste made her can only smile bitterly, cut off her feelings that she didn't know how to express, and focus all her energy on the topic.
"You drove away Feng's confidants and others vigorously and resolutely, and I think it is understandable. I also want to praise you privately, for your courage and responsibility. But..."
Grandma Zhou paused for a moment before thinking of words to continue:
"But you don't want to add more servants now, nor do you want to clean up the atmosphere in the house. I'm afraid that if you delay it for a long time, it will become a disaster. Then, you will inevitably be scolded by the eldest princess again. What are your plans? Can you tell me about it? ?”
Danyang smiled and pushed the poured tea to Nanny Zhou. While holding his own cup of scented tea, he leaned on the table and said with a smile:
"Mommy, you don't have to hide it from me. What happened in the house? Is someone making trouble? Or is there a theft case, but the culprit can't be caught?"
"You have already guessed this?"
Aunt Zhou really didn't expect that Princess Danyang seemed to be being punished behind closed doors, but she was well aware of the situation in every corner of the mansion and had already anticipated it.
And that's not all, look at the confident and leisurely look of the princess. In other words, the princess has probably already thought of a countermeasure, right?
With this guess, Grandma Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.
When he opened his mouth again, he no longer covered it up.
"Actually, there's not much chaos in the mansion right now. It's just that the princess has laid off some places that were busy in Japan, such as the big kitchen, the sweepers in the garden, etc., and now there is an increasing shortage of people."
The large kitchen and garden are the most accessible places in the house besides the warehouse. Therefore, it naturally became the place where Nanny Feng and her confidants paid the most attention and had the strongest control.
If it weren't for the warehouse in the princess's mansion, the keys and guards were firmly in her hands by the eldest princess, and I'm afraid most of them would have been empty by now.
Danyang nodded clearly and answered:
"So, there are people who are dissatisfied with the lack of life and go to talk to grandma?"
After Grandma Zhou nodded with a wry smile, Danyang didn't wait for the other party to continue, but instead spoke out the other party's feelings first.
"And those who can come to grandma to complain are considered good. There are even Shuo Shu who joins other complainants in the house without saying a word, gathers people to make trouble, stalls on errands, or even guards and steals."
There was no question in this sentence at all, it was just a plain, cold statement of what Danyang had guessed and what was actually happening.
Aunt Zhou's face turned red with embarrassment. In fact, there should have been signs before. However, she was completely focused on the eldest princess and had no time to care.
A moment of oversight led to today's bitter consequences.
Now the hidden danger has become, but fortunately she can suppress it for the time being, so she hurriedly came to Princess Danyang to discuss it. He probably agreed with his princess's thunderous methods from the bottom of his heart, and didn't want to upset the eldest princess if things got bigger.
Aunt Zhou was anxious. When she hurried over, she didn't understand why she was convinced in her heart that this matter should be brought to the attention of Princess Danyang.
But now, after chatting for a few words, her thoughts became clearer, so she filtered her thoughts first.
Thinking of this moment, Grandma Zhou couldn't help but sigh softly.
After all, I am getting old. Let alone protecting Princess Danyang and the eldest princess, it is not easy for me not to make mistakes.
"What the princess said is absolutely correct, but it is the old slave who raised these giant rats..."
Danyang had no intention of blaming him. Waving her hand lightly, she cut off Grandma Zhou's apology and continued:
"There have been too many evils in our house for too long, and it is meaningless to pursue anyone's fault at this time. Moreover, there was nothing wrong with what grandma did before. Danyang will always remember the painstaking efforts she has made for me and my mother in everything. In the heart.”
Although it is just two very simple sentences. But the sincere eyes and solemn tone made Grandma Zhou feel warm in her heart. The tears in his eyes rolled over uncontrollably and kept pouring out.
"Princess, this old slave has lost his temper."
Grandma Zhou quickly lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, trying to return to her usual dignified appearance. Unfortunately, the harder she tried to hold it back, the more the water in her eyes refused to obey her orders.
Being so stubborn made her panic, thinking that she would have to deal with the childhood Princess Danyang herself, which made her feel at a loss.
But this feeling made her more and more unable to control the soreness in her chest, and her calm tears gradually turned into sobs!
When Grandma Zhou was getting busier and more nervous, she unexpectedly fell into a soft and fragrant warm embrace.
"County, Princess?"
The next moment, Princess Danyang's voice echoed from above her head and body.
"Thank you for your hard work, mama. From now on, I will work with you to support mother and our family."
When Grandma Zhou heard this, her throat immediately tightened, and the tears in her eye sockets instantly turned from raindrops to streams, but she didn't bother to wipe them away.
She choked several times before finally regaining her breath and letting out a soft "hmm".
Danyang stood in front of Aunt Zhou, holding the old man who was shaking from time to time in his arms, gently patting her back and letting time pass by quietly, waiting for her emotions to calm down.
After a while, Nanny Zhou finally regained her composure, lowered her head in embarrassment, took the Supa from Princess Danyang, and murmured in a low voice:
"The princess made a joke."
Danyang smiled silently and didn't say anything more about this. He just continued the previous topic:
"Mommy, there is no need to worry too much. I have already known this situation. But there is one thing I still need some help from."
