Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 70

I don't know what happened to the housekeeper and the nanny in Yao Mansion, all the changes started after they left.

"That's right! How respectable this is, Jia'er, you have to seize the opportunity to win Madam Xie's favor, as long as she likes you, your life in Xie's mansion will be easier in the future!" Master Yao smiled, his face full of kindness. .

"Father!" Yao Cunjia's face was reddish, and he lowered his head in embarrassment, but he secretly groaned in his heart.When getting along with the mother-in-law-to-be, you must neither make her feel frivolous nor neglectful. You must maintain the reservedness and shyness of a daughter's family, but also show the attitude of a future daughter-in-law. This is really a test!
It would be fine if this mother-in-law-to-be was an acquaintance, but she was a stranger who had never met before!

Worry and sympathy flashed across Yao Cunhui's eyes as she looked at her sister, she was even more difficult to deal with than the most familiar stranger, right?

"Your father is right!" Madam Ma suppressed the sneer from the bottom of her heart, and said kindly: "Jia'er, as long as your future mother-in-law likes you, your position in the Xie family will be rock-solid and secure. You can't even shake it! Mrs. Xie came here in person, this is your good opportunity, you must seize it!"

"Yes, yes, that's exactly what you said! Your mother is right!" Master Yao agreed happily, deeply agreeing.

"Daughter...Daughter understands!" Yao Cunjia was so confused that he reluctantly nodded and smiled.

It would be better if there was a biological mother who went through the needles, Ma Shi, Yao Cunjia secretly glanced at her, she just didn't fan the flames and made trouble out of it, how dare you expect her to help him?If something really happened during Mrs. Xie's visit, wouldn't my future be——

Yao Cunjia was startled, his face changed slightly.

"Father, if that's the case, why don't we arrange for Mrs. Xie and the others to live in Qingfengyuan. My daughter remembers that there is a bamboo forest behind Qingfengyuan, which is very elegant, and it is very close to Yaofangyuan, so it is convenient for my sister to take care of her nearby." Yao Cunhui said with a smile.

Since Mrs. Xie and her party are obliged to come, it is better to control everything in their own hands. If they are arranged by Mrs. Ma, God knows what she will do!

Yao Cunhui glanced secretly at Mrs. Ma, and sure enough, she saw a flash of unhappiness in her eyes.

"Yes, Qingfengyuan is not bad! The house is also clean and bright, and the yard is spacious, just clean and arrange it again!" Master Yao nodded in agreement.

The corner of Ma Shi's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with a faint smile: "Since I turn around like this, I will ask someone to clean it up. It will be about half a month before Mrs. Xie and his party will arrive, so there is still time!"

Mrs. Ma originally wanted to arrange for Mrs. Xie to live in the Fuqu House.This Fuqu Pavilion is built near the water, and there is a lotus in front of the door. If it is June and July, the lotus fragrance is full, and the green leaves are like waves, which is pleasing to the eye and the scenery is picturesque. Terrier, I'm afraid no one can feel better.Mrs. Xie is unhappy, that's right!

Unexpectedly, Yao Cunhui jumped in and said it first. The reasons were ready-made and high-sounding, and she didn't even have an excuse to refute.

Yao Cunhui wanted more than that. As soon as Mrs. Ma finished speaking, she laughed again: "Father, mother, my daughter thinks it's better to let the eldest sister clean up and arrange Qingfengyuan. This is the filial piety of the elder sister. Mrs. Xie will be happy to know ! And it also showed the talent of the eldest sister as a housekeeper, Madam Xie will definitely value her more in the future!"

"Shut up!" Mrs. Ma couldn't bear it anymore, stared at her and reprimanded: "You are a girl who has not left the cabinet, what are you talking about! Are you able to intervene to decide these things!"

"Daughter, my daughter also cares about the elder sister..." Yao Cunhui was startled, glanced at Mrs. Ma and Master Yao with grievances, and slowly lowered her head while fiddling with her belt uneasily.

"Ma'am, don't blame Huier." Since the second daughter's work is getting more and more in his favor, Master Yao felt a little unhappy when she saw her wronged, and more importantly, her proposal was very in line with his wishes, so he said, "I think Huier said It's very reasonable, so that's good! Jiaer, you will be responsible for this matter!"

"Jia'er has never been in charge of the house, so how could she know how powerful her skills are? Cleaning up the yard is not so simple. If something goes wrong that offends Mrs. Xie, wouldn't there be a rift for nothing?" Mrs. Ma glanced at her. Yao Cunjia glanced at him with a worried look on his face.

Yao Cunhui's eyes lit up, and he raised his head without fear of death and blurted out, "Why is this so difficult? Why don't you ask grandma to give me some advice from an experienced nanny for a while?"

"What are you talking about!" Mrs. Ma immediately pushed back: "This is a matter of our Yao family. Although they are relatives, it is not easy to bother the people of the Yun family. If someone finds out, they will treat our Yao family as a whole to decorate the house. It's a joke that people can't find them!"

"How could it be?" Yao Cunhui said with a smile, "I'm a guest from afar, and Mrs. Xie is a distinguished guest among distinguished guests. No one in our family understands her preferences. Asking grandma is also a sign of respecting distinguished guests. How can there be such a thing?" Foolish people will make jokes! They can only say that our family is meticulous and hospitable!"

"A foolish person? Didn't you say that I am foolish?" Mrs. Ma never thought that Yao Cunhui would dare to talk back to her in front of Master Yao again and again, and her face turned yellow with anger.

This sentence is too heavy, it is not something Yao Cunhui can afford.

"Daughter dare not!" Yao Cunhui stood up quickly, bowed her head and remained silent.

"Okay, okay! Hui'er, sit down first." Master Yao is not a fool. Seeing their mother and daughter fighting each other, he felt something was wrong. After thinking for a while, he felt that what Yao Cunhui said made sense. It was decided by Mrs. Yun, the Yun family and the Xie family are also old acquaintances, Mrs. Yun's birthday, Xie's mansion also sent a master and a big housekeeper to send a big gift, so Mrs. Yun sent someone to come Helping, both emotional and reasonable.

"Jiaer, what do you think?" Master Yao turned to look at Yao Cunjia.

His meaning, what Yao Cunhui said was reasonable, and he was more inclined to Yao Cunhui's idea; but in front of his children, he felt that it was inconvenient to refute his wife's meaning, which would discredit her as the mistress; It can't be done well; it's better to ask Yao Cunjia and let her make up her mind, all sides will lose face.

Yao Cunjia smiled, looked at his father, then at his mother, and said with a smile: "Mother is very grateful for her daughter and the Yao family's consideration, but what Huier said is also good, daughter, I think I can do this well! In fact, if there is anything you don’t understand, just ask your mother, my grandmother is not an outsider.”

"Okay, okay! As expected of my Yao Nianyi's daughter, she has ambition and ideas!" Master Yao was very happy, he smiled, and said to Mrs. Ma with a smile: "Since Jiaer can do a good job, this matter is settled like this Go! Over at the Yun family, you still need to send someone to talk to your mother-in-law."

"Since the master and our eldest lady both said that, I have no objection!" Mrs. Ma nodded, feeling very annoyed at Master Yao's "mother-in-law". It seems that she has become an outsider!There was a secret "bah" in my heart: what mother-in-law!That woman died a long time ago, where did your mother-in-law come from? Your current mother-in-law is from my Ma family!
"After all, this is the first time for my daughter to do this. Mother is merciful, and she wants someone to help her!" Yao Cunjia said respectfully with a smile.

Mrs. Ma raised her eyebrows. Since Yao Cunjia took on this matter with full confidence, since she couldn't make up her mind, she wanted to simply let her go and let her do whatever she wanted!I don't want this girl to be good and good, and people who know how to want her, she won't be able to pick off anything inconsiderate or inappropriate in the future.

On the other hand, Master Yao still nodded and said yes, and said to her with a smile: "Jiaer is right, let's see who is suitable to send someone to her!" It seemed that Jiaer still respected you very much, which made Mrs. Ma feel It's very irritating.

Mrs. Ma smiled, and glanced at Mother Qiao: "Mother Qiao, from tomorrow onwards you will take care of the eldest lady! Follow the orders of the eldest lady!"

"Yes, ma'am!" Mother Qiao bowed to accept the order.

"Thank you, mother." Yao Cunjia smiled, and said again: "The south of the Yangtze River is rich and rich, and Xie's family is even richer and more particular about others. This should be the arrangement of utensils—"

"Ask your mother to open the storeroom, and you can just take whatever you need! This is a big and important matter, and we must not neglect to ask someone to find out what's wrong, and it will lose our family's face." Master Yao understood and made a final decision.

"Daughter understands, daughter will not disappoint parents and mother." Yao Cunjia smiled and said nothing.

Then, they discussed a lot of related matters. It was Master Yao who talked, and Mrs. Ma occasionally expressed a few words of motherly kindness. , Ma Qunfang didn't say a word but listened carefully and attentively, with envy in his eyes.

Yao Cunhui finally felt relieved, at least, nothing would go wrong in the accommodation.If it is Ma Shi who comes here and puts up two secrets secretly, it is hard to say this kind of thing.If Mrs. Xie didn't say anything, it was inevitable that she would feel unhappy, and there would be a rift, and she would inevitably have no opinion on Yao Cunjia. In the future, Yao Cunjia will marry, although she will not find fault with her because of such a little old incident, at least she has bad feelings for her in her heart. impression.

Seeing that what they said was almost the same, Yao Cunjia, sisters and brothers stood up and said goodbye. Master Yao waved them away, and discussed with Mrs. Ma for a long time before taking Fourth Auntie away.

Mrs. Ma respectfully sent it to the door as usual, the veil in her hand was pinched almost out of shape, she gritted her teeth, glared at the direction of Yaofangyuan, and sneered in her heart: Yao Cunjia, Yao Cunjia, this matter has just begun!Wanting to please Mrs. Xie's family with this is a dream!
"Setting up rules in front of Madam every day has caused you to suffer." In the Liuhua Mountain House, Master Yao said to Fourth Aunt with distress, stroking her face with big hands compassionately.

"What did you say, Master?" Fourth Aunt was a little embarrassed when she heard the words, the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, and a faint smile appeared, she gently leaned her head on Master Yao's shoulder, and said lightly: " Maids and concubines used to serve Madam in this way, and there was no suffering. This is the duty of maids and concubines."

"You!" Master Yao laughed, shook his head and sighed softly, "I don't know what to say!"
