Chapter 148
After such a perfunctory entertainment, it was already the beginning of the night when they returned home.But he didn't want to, Li Ci just sat down and wanted to talk to Ye Chuan about the weirdness of Yixing Hou Shizi, but he heard a commotion outside, with occasional dirty words, which was unbearable, and immediately frowned and called Zhang Nanny, ordered She immediately brought the noisy people over.

Grandma Zhang didn't dare to be negligent, she took the order and immediately took a group of savage women to go, and after a while, she brought the troublemaker to her.Li Ci took a closer look, and found that it was Ayu and a woman with an unfamiliar face.

The two of them knew the rules, Fang Menjin had already knelt down without waiting for Madam Zhang to give orders, especially Ayu, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she was holding another child in her arms, it really was pear blossom with rain.

"How is this going?"

Li Ci looked at Nanny Zhang beside Shi Li, she knew that Ayu had unreasonable thoughts about Ye Chuan, but after all, she was Ye Chuan's nurse and sister, she did not take the initiative to show her feet, and Li Ci could not be ruthless, only lenient treat.

Before Nanny Zhang could reply, Ayu raised her head in tears, squinted at Ye Chuan who was sitting next to Lici, saw that he was ignoring her, and couldn't help sobbing, "I...humble, I don't dare to stay in Shaohou's Mansion anymore .”

Ye Chuan was reading the military manual by the candlelight, he couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, turned his face, and asked, "What happened?"

Seeing that Ye Chuan finally noticed her, Ayu's tears became more and more uncontrollable. She chewed her tears and said, "I am very happy to be placed in Bisha Courtyard because of my wife. Who would have thought that at noon today, my servant would take the child for a walk, People thought that the servant was the young master's housemate, and stopped on the road. The obscene language was unbearable... The servant had just arrived, and did not dare to tell the young lady right and wrong. After arguing with them for a few words, she carried the child back to Bi... Shayuan. I don’t want to have this lady Man come to the door in the evening, saying that the servant girl is so ugly and humble, how can she be worthy of warming the bed of the young prince... The servant girl is humble, but the child of the servant girl belongs to the Ye family... just because of this child , the servant can no longer swallow her anger... Thinking of this, the servant can't bear it anymore... I didn't want to disturb the Shaohou and his wife... It's really a capital crime..."

What he said was very sad, as if he had really been wronged by the sky.

Li Ci glanced at Ye Chuan: Your wet nurse and sister are really amazing.

Ye Chuan pretended not to see it, and said to the kneeling woman, "Is there such a thing?"

The woman raised her head, glanced at Li Ci and Ye Chuan in shock, then quickly kowtowed, and said, "Slave is a death penalty! Slave is a death penalty!"

"This--"

Ye Chuan was taken aback.

Li Ci smiled bitterly and said, "Young Marquis, men's methods are useless in matters in the backyard."

Ye Chuan also saw that the woman was probably frightened by him, and said boredly: "I wanted to share my worries with Madam, but as expected... I have to trouble Madam." After finishing speaking, he picked up the military book in hand and read it again.

But Li Ci was not in a hurry to ask questions, and ordered the woman to look up, seeing that she was beautiful and graceful, she stretched out her hand to beckon Madam Zhang, and said, "Who is this person?"

Nanny Zhang whispered in her ear: "It was sent by Zhang Shilang from the household department. He has a good temperament. He was assigned to Huashangli as an errand, not far from Bisha Courtyard."

Li Ci knew that Nanny Zhang was shrewd. She said that this person was cute, and she expected to be really cute. She took another look and found that he was indeed beautiful and exquisite, with soft brows, so she asked, "What's going on?"

The woman said: "My servant, Manni, was bought by Zhang Shilang from Jiangnan, and my wife won't give up, and she works as an errand in Huashang..."

"Stop, get straight to the point."

"Yes."

As soon as the words were finished, there was a "boom", and Manni's forehead hit the floor: "This servant is at fault, I dare not offend Aunt Yu."

"Aunt Yu? Who is it?"

Li Ci glanced at Nanny Zhang, and Mammy knew that the Young Madam was agitated, so she quickly walked out of the line, knelt down, and said, "I don't know how to call Mrs. Ayu from Bishayuan in the back yard. A child, called Aunt Yu."

"Oh~"

Li Ci intentionally bit the end, and looked at Ye Chuan with a half-smile. Ye Chuan was flustered by her look, and said perfunctorily, "Ah Yu will naturally move out after the New Year's Eve."

Li Ci nodded, she looked around, and found that all the mothers and maids and daughters-in-law were relieved, but Ayu's face had a trace of unhappiness.

She was really reluctant to part with this treasure land.

Li Ci was thinking bitterly, but her face became more kind, and she said, "Manny, why did you go to Bisha Courtyard to make trouble?"

Manni was also trained in the backyard of an official's family, and her ability to serve others is naturally superb. After observing her words and demeanor, she already knew what the mistress wanted, and said, "The servant was framed."

"tell me the story."

When talking, Li Ci looked at Ayu, but Ayu hugged the child tightly and said nothing.

Do you want to be Ye Chuan's roommate?

Too bad I won't let that happen.

Li Ci smiled calmly, not only because she did not accept monogamy and multiple concubines, but more importantly, she did not like Ayu, a pure white lotus.

Thinking of being under the same roof with this person makes me sick.

Manny also sorted out her thoughts at this time, took a deep breath, and spoke eloquently.

"The maidservant came to the Hou's mansion, and was promoted by Nanny Zhang. She works as an errand in Huashang, but she is free every day. I saw Aunt Yu at noon today..."

When talking about Aunt Yu, she paused carefully, seeing that Li Ci didn't show obvious displeasure, she continued.

"Miss Ayu was outside with her child, and a few frivolous and restless people surrounded her and said that Madam Ayu was born so ugly, she must have learned the foxy kung fu in the Goulan...to win the joy of the young master... ...They came from that dirty place, and the words they scolded were also extremely filthy... The servant girl was blushing and shy while listening, and was about to run to inform Madam Zhang, but she heard Madam Ayu say, This child belongs to the Ye family!"

"Miss Ayu really said that?"

Nanny Zhang interrupted Manni violently, but Ayu straightened her back and said calmly: "The child belongs to the Ye family, and this servant is not talking nonsense."

"It belongs to Seventh Uncle's family."

Li Ci added, ordering Nanny Zhang to step back for now, and let Manny continue talking.

"At that time, the servant didn't know this. Hearing that Mrs. Ayu was so arrogant, she said that the child belonged to the Ye family. The servant's heart suddenly became angry for no reason... The background of the servant is the most unfounded, and thanks to the generosity of the wife, give the servant a A clean errand, and I also promised that I will match the servant with a military merit in the future. The servant has received the kindness of the madam, and I wish I could be smashed to pieces...Suddenly, I heard that the new lady Ayu was ahead of the madam and gave birth to a man for the young marquis. , the servant girl became more and more angry after thinking about it, and finally ran to the Bisha courtyard without knowing how to do it."

Speaking of this, it was another kowtow like pounding garlic, saying that it was a capital crime.

However, Li Ci was not in a hurry to make Manni look up. She was pondering Manni's words carefully: "No one is angry, deserves someone with military merits, doesn't know how to measure..." This girl is very smooth.

On the other hand, Ayu, after hearing what Manni said, turned his anger into joy, and said, "So that's what happened. I was the one who wronged Sister Manni."

This meeting became intimate, and Li Ci was slandering again.

But Manni has identified the mistress, and while continuing to kowtow, she said: "Slaves are serving people, so I can't bear this little sister, Yu Niangzi."

Ayu was not angry when she got ridiculed, she took the initiative to help Manny up, and said with a pleasant smile, "Well, I am also a servant."

Immediately, he took off the bright green bracelet on his wrist and wanted to put it on for Manny.

Manni wanted to show her loyalty in front of Li Ci, how could she be easily moved by the property, she kept refusing to accept it, until Li Ci said, "Although the bracelet is worthless, after all, it is Miss Ayu's heart, you can accept it", this Only then did I accept it gratefully.

Seeing that the bracelet was accepted, Ayu wanted to take the opportunity to make friends with Manny, but unfortunately Li Ci would not give her this opportunity, so he said first: "Ayu, since the misunderstanding has been resolved, you can go back and rest."

Ayu looked at Ye Chuan again, but Ye Chuan deliberately turned his face away. She knew it in her heart, so she humbly said, "Your servant obeys Madam."

After finishing speaking, he bowed his body and saluted, and left with the child in his arms.

Seeing that the matter was over, Manni wanted to go out, but was stopped by Li Ci.

"Manny, how much of what you just said is true, and how much is it perfunctory?"

Manni lowered her head and said, "Every word is heartfelt, and there is absolutely no falsehood."

Li Ci nodded and said, "In this case, starting tomorrow, you can transfer to Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing to work, and the monthly schedule will be doubled."

"This--"

"Reluctantly?"

Manny quickly knelt down and said, "I just don't want to leave Madam."

Li Ci said: "If you are loyal to me, you are a good servant. It doesn't matter whether you are working in front of me or not."

"The servant knows."

After finishing speaking, I bowed my head to thank you, and went down with Madam Zhang to pack my luggage.

……

……

"Do you think I have handled this matter properly?"

Li resigned and ordered the servants to step back for now, and looked at Ye Chuan with a half-smile.

Ye Chuan said casually: "I will leave it to you to decide the affairs of the backyard."

"But the one in Ayu's arms is the only seedling of the Seventh Uncle's family, so it can't be handled as a backyard matter."

Ye Chuan said embarrassingly, "That's why I object to bringing her back to the capital."

Li Ci said: "But if you really leave her in Yinzhou and something goes wrong, wouldn't you feel sorry for her to death?"

Ye Chuan's face became a little uncomfortable, and he said: "After all, she is my nurse and sister, so it is right to take care of her."

But you can't see that she has you in her heart!

Li Ci cursed secretly, but on his face he was very polite, and said: "So I brought her to the capital. With you and me taking care of it, naturally nothing will go wrong. Ayu is a responsible person, and I treat her well. I'm very relieved."

Ye Chuan laughed out loud upon hearing this.

"Jealous?"

Li Ci said: "I don't want to be jealous, but what happened today really makes me uncomfortable!"

"I feel uncomfortable, give me a husband quickly."

Ye Chuan said frivolously, looking like a hungry wolf.

Li Ci glared at him fiercely, and said, "I mean, those people in the backyard need to be rectified. If someone with a heart spreads the word today, won't the entire Hou Mansion be disgraced? "

Seeing her serious expression, Ye Chuan also thought about it, and said, "I've left it to you to deal with the affairs in the backyard. If you don't like it, send them all to Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, or just find a place to send them away." people!"

It's just that he said this casually, but it caused Li Ci to chuckle and said: "That can't be done, all the officials from all walks of life respect your beauty, and if you deal with it casually, it will embarrass you."

Ye Chuan said dejectedly: "In short...you have the full power to decide this matter, and I don't care about it."

What Li Ci wanted was this sentence. She knew that she had just taken charge of the family. Although the concubines and beauties who came from outside in the backyard were all assigned for the time being, they were all charming embryos raised by concubines after all. It was hard to guarantee that they would not have any thoughts.

As the saying goes, it's hard to guard against house thieves, not to mention she can't tie men to herself like a dog. If she can't restrain them before the wedding, it will be difficult in the future.

The most important thing is, that Ayu... it's time for a good treatment.

But Manny is a smart person. She saw the situation in the back house, and wanted to use Ayu's affairs to draw her attention and show her loyalty... If this person can be trained well, he will be a good assistant in the future.

The back house is a woman's territory, and women's methods should be used to manage the backyard.
