The terrible autumn tiger finally passed, and ice was no longer used in the room. The prickly heat on Lishu's body was also completely eliminated. She had milky white skin and big black grape-like eyes. Looking at herself in the mirror, she suddenly felt It turns out she was so cute when she was a child!
Behind her, her mother was combing her hair. She moved gently, for fear of pulling her hair. Li Shu once again felt that the greatest meaning was that she was reborn and could enjoy her family again.
Outside, both Danhong and Danqing came back with new clothes. Danhong said happily: "Thankfully, Aunt Ding is in charge. It's not winter yet, so she made two sets of clothes for each of our servants. It's much better than when the eldest lady was the housekeeper." ”
My servant, no matter how extravagant you talk about, it is still worse than not being able to have enough food and clothing.
Mr. Fu smiled and said, "I only heard that she was cautious, cautious, virtuous and virtuous, but I never thought that she was capable of doing anything."
"Mom, when it comes to housekeeping, who is better, you or Aunt Ding?" Lishu pretended to be a child with a competitive spirit to compare.
Because if she told little Mrs. Fu to be careful about Aunt Ding and Mrs. Fu, such words would be shocking if they were not coming from a child who was not yet six years old, and her mother would not take them to heart.
That's why she mentioned it in such a provocative way.
When Mrs. Fu heard this, she pursed her lips. It had been a long time since she had been a housekeeper.
Dan Qing said: "Third girl, of course my wife is stronger. When our wife was the housekeeper, she took care of her very well."
"Now that dad won't let mom take care of the house, I hope that Aunt Ding will always take care of the house, so that you can have chicken legs on the table and good clothes to wear." Li Shu Tongyan said and laughed.
Danhong and Danqing looked at little Fu and quickly said to Lishu: "Girl, this..."
Little Fu shook her head slowly: "I always thought that giving in would mean causing less trouble, but now it seems that if things continue like this, even my most beloved daughter will think that I am useless as a mother."
"Tong Yan Wu Ji, madam, please don't take it to heart." Dan Qing advised.
Little Fu said calmly: "In the past, I underestimated Aunt Ding. Judging from her behavior of buying up the buyer, it will be difficult for her to return the power in the future."
Lishu was surprised, because just as little Fu had expected, little Fu had a miscarriage in her previous life and had been sick all the time, and died within a few years. Mrs. Fu stayed with her grandmother for three more years, and then she became pregnant again. Later, her health was not very good, and Aunt Ding seemed to have been the housekeeper at home.
Could it be that this person is really Wang Mang who is humble and has not usurped the throne?
The women in the back house all grew up in the struggle, and they are not stupid. After Li Shu reminded her, Xiao Fu rubbed her belly and said to Dan Qing: "If you only want to take charge of the house, you will definitely follow Xiao Gui and Cao. She He also saved unnecessary expenses on the money of the two girls and the two young masters' school. He also persuaded the master to buy a lot of cheap citrus in Jiujiang and left them to be dried into tangerine peels. The tangerine peels actually made a lot of money, which was obviously better than My sister is ten times stronger."
With such a talent, she actually underestimated her.
Dan Hong said: "But she is not favored. Now I would rather stay with the eldest lady than go to her place."
"If there is no chance now, it may not mean that there will be no chance in the future. As time goes by, there will always be opportunities. This is called water grinding kung fu." Little Fu knew it very well.
Li Shu thought to herself that her mother still saw things very clearly, so she clicked the button and reminded her mother to take good care of her.
But at this time, Danqing smiled and said: "My hard work is not as good as yours. When you give birth to Lin'er, where will it be her aunt's turn to take care of the family?"
Little Fu touched her belly and felt very strange that Aunt Ding was so aggressive. Didn't she know that if her sister was in trouble after she gave birth, she would of course take care of the house again.
unless……
Thinking of this, Xiao Fu secretly thought that it was not good.
Unless something went wrong with herself, she used to be sure that she would be fine, but now that she is pregnant, she is the weakest and most vulnerable to——
Being plotted against!
On the other side, Rao's mother saw Dafang more often than before, and she couldn't help but said to Mrs. Fu: "Madam, Aunt Ding has always been an upright person. She respects the legitimate descendants and always looks after you. She is tailoring new clothes. , and it was Yuping who complained that she used it to make new clothes."
Mrs. Fu nodded: "Ding entered the palace to serve the master at the age of fourteen. She admires the master, but she never resorts to any means and is upright. I also believe in such a person."
"Yes, but Aunt Su has frequently asked the second young master and the third young master to walk around in front of him. She used to come to you all day long, as if she was so loyal. Every time she came to you, she would not mention the second young master. I will raise her in your name. You are still young, is it possible that you will not be able to give birth to a child?" Rao's mother was very angry.
Of course Mrs. Fu knew what Aunt Su meant, but her mother-in-law received a letter from her mother-in-law, asking her to give birth to a son. Back then, her mother gave birth to five sons in a row, so her mother-in-law hired her back after seeing her doing so.
However, after she came back from her arduous journey abroad, her mother-in-law became indifferent to her, as if she felt that she was not innocent outside, and it was a good thing that she did not show it outside in front of a pair of children.
"Madam, the top priority is to recuperate your body quickly and give birth to another child as soon as possible! I see that the second lady is not lucky and has a poor life. I heard that she is not pregnant. If it is not going to happen, it must be you." Rao's mother advised. road.
Mrs. Fu frowned: "Don't talk about Mr. Qiu like that."
Rao's mother promised well, and waited for Mrs. Fu to rest before she came out. Seeing Yuping and Yulan looking at her earnestly, she shook her head: "I checked Madam's tone, but she still disagreed."
The three of them were Fu's dowry, and when they gathered together to discuss, Yulan said: "Madam has always been kind-hearted, but she may not be kind to others. Once the second lady is pregnant, it is impossible for the master to stay with the eldest lady all the time." , if the master goes to the second lady, when she gives birth to a son and is favored again, what will we, the madam, do? If Aunt Ding is the housekeeper, it will be fine, but if the second lady is the housekeeper, there will be no way for us to survive. "
Yu Ping understood this deeply. When the second wife was in charge of the family, her mother was sent to Zhuangzi. She immediately said: "In my opinion, she may have had a hand in the death of the eldest son. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? She was pregnant just after the eldest son passed away. Fortunately, the master has affection for our wife."
Rao's mother was convinced, and she smiled slightly: "We all rely on the eldest lady. The eldest lady is merciful, so there are some things we have to do."
Yuping and Yulan looked at each other.
The next day, Aunt Su came again with her skirt in hand. She had more seniority than Aunt Ding and had better offspring than Aunt Ding, but now she was outclassed by Aunt Ding. In the past, she had the same status as the eldest lady because she had two sons, but now Aunt Ding is doing business and giving orders, as if she is inferior to others.
Therefore, she wanted to come over to say hello, but Mrs. Fu, the clinker, looked indifferent when she saw her coming. Without saying a few words, she excused herself because she was not feeling well, so Aunt Su had to leave angrily.
As soon as she came out, she heard Yuping and Yulan say: "If you say that our second wife is the eldest lady's biological sister, why will the son of our second wife be raised when the time comes, and it will be the turn of the people from the outer four streets?"
"Yes, some people are really wishful thinking. When the second wife gives birth to a son, with her love, there will definitely be another son, and maybe the eldest brother will adopt him as well." Yulan agreed.
Yuping swept the ground loudly: "Anyway, some people should not have such wishful thinking."
Aunt Su was so angry that she returned to the yard, but saw that the cherry had returned without success. She was even more angry: "Didn't I ask you to bring me the bird's nest? Why didn't you bring it?"
Cherry said: "There are big changes in the kitchen now, and there are many bird's nests. I heard that it was arranged by Aunt Ding when she returned to the first lady. Now the second lady is the main one in the house, and all the bird's nests in the house must be sent to the second lady. Go. Since the government is already saving money, you here will make the decision first."
As if she was afraid that Aunt Su would be angry, Cherry also said: "Auntie, please bear with me. After the second lady gives birth to the child, we can be the same as before."
"No, how is this the same? In the past, when little Fu was favored, I could not see the master even once every two years. She was still so young, beautiful, and noble. She gave birth to a son, and she would definitely have another son. , it will be difficult for my son to adopt a big house in the future. Now it is just a bird's nest, but in the future it will be my son's future." Aunt Su's face no longer felt as comfortable as eating fruits and snacks.
I heard that the imperial decree has begun to slow down. The eldest master has thousands of hereditary royal guards. He is an official of the fifth rank, how can he please others.
Thinking of this, Aunt Su's eyes sharpened, and she seemed to have made a decision.
