Zhichun's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he immediately understood what the lady meant, and he happily went to find those things one by one.
Xu Shichu led a group of people to the hall in a mighty manner. The servants in the Prime Minister's Mansion were surprised to see her in such a big posture. They didn't know what the lady was doing.
However, when he saw the maids and servants behind Xu Shichu walking towards the hall carrying bundles of cloth and some utensils and furnishings of not very good quality, the clever servant immediately quietly went to the young lady's original owner.
Xu Shichu and his party quickly arrived at the hall, and she ordered: "Go and invite the Prime Minister here." After thinking for a while, she said to another servant, "If the young master is in the mansion today, please invite him here too."
The servants took the order and left.
Zhichun consciously placed all the food in the food box on the table one by one.
Not long after, Luo Changqing's unhurried footsteps came from outside.
"Madam, are you looking for me?" Luo Changqing asked as soon as he came in. Then he saw the dishes on the table and was a little confused. "What day is today? Do you want everyone to have a reunion dinner together?"
Xu Shichu sneered and said, "Is the prime minister so poor? Do you want to eat something like this for the reunion dinner?"
Luo Changqing was stunned for a moment, then looked at the dishes carefully. He could see the problem at this glance. The dishes were both meat and vegetable. However, the meat was not only dark in color, but also made people lose their appetite at first sight. It's shiny and oily, soaked in half a plate of oil, and you'll feel tired even before you eat it; the plain ones are even worse, either with yellow leaves or stir-fried without oil, and they don't look fresh at first glance. It's hard to swallow.
Which family reunion dinner is made like this? No, such a meal cannot appear on the Prime Minister's dining table.
"What's going on?" Luo Changqing thought for a while and figured it out, and asked Xu Shichu with a calm and handsome face.
Xu Shichu raised his eyelids to look at him and said sarcastically: "I also want to know what's going on. I just want to eat some normal meals, but these days my maids are getting dishes like this from the kitchen. I don’t know whether it’s because the Prime Minister’s Mansion cannot make ends meet and has no money to buy some good ingredients, or whether my treatment as the nominal wife of the Prime Minister’s Mansion has declined, and I only deserve to eat such a meal!”
Xu Shichu became even more angry as she spoke. She was peacefully acting as her tool. She just wanted to eat better, wear better clothes, and live more comfortably. But now there are people who don't like her and insist on destroying her. She couldn't bear the easy life!
You don't mind scolding her or disrespecting her, but it's unbearable to prevent her from enjoying the food.
She has no ambitions in life, eating, drinking, and having fun. She just has this hobby. Anyone who destroys her will be unforgivable!
"Go and call the people in the kitchen and let me see if they don't want to continue working in the house!" Luo Changqing's eyes were deep, and he exuded strong low pressure. He looked like a storm was about to come. Obviously He was angry, and the servants around him were so frightened that they lowered their heads and lowered their ears, not even daring to take a breath.
"I'm sorry, you were wronged because of my improper discipline of the servants in the house." Luo Changqing said to Xu Shichu in an apologetic tone.
Xu Shichu sneered, without saying any polite words to him, and said directly: "Where is it? It must be because you have been a good teacher. After all, this trick of 'seeing others' choices' is very useful."
Luo Changqing was choked by her sarcastic words, but could not refute, but in his heart he felt unhappy with his daughter-in-law. She had just handed over the housekeeping power in the house to her, and she had done something like this and treated her mother-in-law harshly. Mother, unfilial and disloyal, what on earth does she want to do?
"Stepmother, father, why did you call me here?" Luo Rui hurried over and asked as soon as he saw his stepmother and father in the hall.
"Look." Xu Shichu pointed to the food on the table, then pointed to the faded fabrics and rough utensils.
"These are the new things I received from the government. I don't know if there is a big problem with the money and property of the prime minister's government, so now we can only use some defective products. If there is a problem, Master Luo, just take care of it. He said that if I have money, I can use the things I bought so that the family can save my share, and maybe it can make the family more comfortable."
"There is nothing wrong with the property in the house!" Luo Rui immediately denied it. However, after he calmed down and remembered his wife's dissatisfaction with his step-wife, he immediately understood what was going on.
He was so ashamed that his usually fair face turned red, and he did not dare to say anything to Xu Shichu. He turned around and shouted to his servant: "Call me the young lady!"
"I'm sorry, step-wife, my wife is in charge of everything in the house now. These things are of poor quality but they appear on your account. In any case, it is because of her poor stewardship and her harsh treatment of you. I will definitely discipline her well. "Luo Rui's face was burning, and he had to clean up the mess for his wife.
Xu Shichu glanced at him and said calmly:
"Really? Then she really needs to be disciplined. The future mistress of the prime minister's house will also be the mistress of the family in the future. If she can't even manage the affairs of the few masters in the prime minister's house, how will she be able to manage people who talk too much in the future? A big family affair.
It is said that you should marry a virtuous wife. She is going to be your virtuous wife and help you manage family affairs, so that you can have no worries, fully display your talents in your career, and continue the glory of your family.
But now it seems that she... Well, I heard that a good mistress can prosper three generations, but a bad mistress can destroy three generations of descendants...
I'm just a prime minister's wife in name, so it doesn't matter if she offends me; but what if she offends your boss, colleague's wife, or mother? Or have you offended someone in your family, causing unrest in your family and causing infighting within your clan?
It is said that a thousand-mile embankment was destroyed by an ant nest, and the Prime Minister's Mansion is in flames. I don't know how many people are staring here, waiting to scratch your painful feet... So, young lady, should she restrain herself? What about for a while? "
Xu Shichu said a long story in an understatement, but the Luo family and his son were shocked when they heard it and realized the seriousness of the matter.
It is undeniable that although Xu Shichu's words were a bit exaggerated, they were indeed reasonable. As the prime minister of a country, Luo Changqing thought more, so he solemnly bowed to Xu Shichu and said gratefully: "Thank you, madam, for reminding me. I will definitely give you an explanation.”
"I don't care too much about the explanation or not." Xu Shichu said this, but he thought in his heart: Of course you have to explain it to me. Ruining my beauty is unforgivable!
She continued to apply eye drops to Qin Mei: "If the young lady really cares about me eating and drinking for free in the house, I don't need my share. I have money and can support myself."
