The most difficult female boss in history

Chapter 19 The Enmity with the Hou Mansion

Only then did Aunt Qiao breathe a sigh of relief. On the way to Beijing, she repeatedly emphasized the importance of personal tokens with the girl, and the girl said without hesitation that if the amber bead could be taken out in a fair manner, it would definitely not be. There is a problem.

Xiao Mingzhu held the amber bead, calling in her heart: "System 008."

But she only got a reply from a mechanical voice: "The system is being upgraded."

What is an upgrade?

Xiao Mingzhu didn't understand, but she understood that 008 might not be able to come out at this time.

But that's good, at least the past few days have not harmed grandma, aunt Qiao and the others.

Aunt Qiao's interruption took some time, and when Xiao Mingzhu wanted to go to the side hall again, Zhixia happened to come in. She was very troubled, and she knelt down beside the bed: "Girl, Madam Ming of the waiting mansion They came to ask the old lady for slaves."

"What?" Xiao Mingzhu's expression changed.

Aunt Qiao saw clearly from the side: "Zhixia, don't worry, speak slowly."

Zhi Xia calmed down and said: "Sister Shuxiang told the slave just now that the fifth girl in the Hou Mansion was injured and would hinder her heirs in the future. Madam Wang heard that the slave is good at medicinal food, so she sent Nurse Ming to ask the old lady for it. The servant is recuperating the fifth girl's body. Girl, the servant does not want to leave."

"No one can take my person away." Xiao Mingzhu said angrily, and then added: "Grandmother will not give you to anyone." This sentence has no confidence.

Zhixia was struggling: "Girl, if..."

"No if, Aunt Qiao, help me get dressed." Xiao Mingzhu really couldn't lie down this time.

"Dress? Where are you going?" Mrs. Xu came in with the help of Nanny Ru.

Xiao Mingzhu immediately rolled onto the bed, pulled off the quilt and lay down, even closing her eyes.

Seeing her deceiving her ears, Mrs. Xu almost couldn't laugh out loud. She held back her laughter, sat down beside the bed, reached out her hand to stroke Xiao Mingzhu's hair, and said, "Didn't you just promise to appease Zhixia?" , Why, I lost my confidence in grandma after I spoke the words."

Xiao Mingzhu secretly glanced at Mrs. Xu, seeing that she was not angry, she said, "I'm just afraid that grandma won't be able to refuse."

Mrs. Xu frowned, and asked Mother Ru to move the chair over. After she sat down, she said: "There are some things that Grandmother should explain to you. You will always meet them in the future, and you must know it in your heart. How to deal with it."

Rumomo gave Zhichun and Zhixia a wink, and Zhichun and Zhixia retreated out with interest. Aunt Qiao also wanted to go out, but was stopped by Mrs. Xu: "Auntie, stay. In the future, I have to mention it next to her." Light it up."

Aunt Qiao was not pretentious, she helped Xiao Mingzhu to sit up, and then sat down on the edge of the bed.

Mrs. Xu couldn't help but look at Aunt Zhi more, knowing what she knew.

"Hey..." Mrs. Xu sighed, and then said: "I don't know if your father mentioned it to you, but the title of Marquis of Guangyang was originally earned by your great-grandfather. I inherited the title after my death. I married your grandfather at the age of 15, and I was pregnant with your father at the age of 21. It was also that year that your grandfather fell from a horse and died. At that time, the family used the excuse that the fetus in my womb might be a daughter. When the emperor sees that the eldest brother has no heirs, he will seize the title. If he has to force me to write a letter requesting to give up the title to the second brother, in order to save your father, I have no choice but to write a letter..."

"After your father was born, the second room was afraid that I would bear the grudge against the title, so it forcibly withheld your father's property, and tried every means to prevent your father from going to school. Your father was forced to abandon his pen and join the army. Also God has eyes, your father met the sage who was still a prince at that time, and he won the merits of the dragon, so he can regain his ancestral property and have today's General's Mansion."

Talking about the old things back then, Mrs. Xu's expression was depressed, and her eyes were full of grief and indignation. "Right now, although my General's Mansion and his Hou's Mansion are not the same, they are also strangers. Don't say it's the girl next to you, just a needle and thread, and his Hou's Mansion can't get there from the General's Mansion .”

Xiao Mingzhu can imagine how difficult it was for her grandmother and father, orphans and widows, to live under the oppression of the Houfu.

"Yes, no." Xiao Mingzhu also repeated.

Aunt Qiao waited for their grandparents to calm down, and then said: "Old Madam, these years, the Hou Mansion has known the attitude of the General's Mansion, Madam Wang still sent someone here, I'm afraid this matter will not be so easy."

Mrs. Xu frowned and became serious.

Aunt Qiao said again: "No matter how tense the relationship between the General's Mansion and the Hou's Mansion, in the eyes of outsiders, they are of the same origin. If the Hou's Mansion came to seek medical treatment in a serious manner over and over again, the old lady would blindly reject them. , will make people feel that the General's Mansion is cold-blooded and heartless."

"Don't you have to give her someone?" Mrs. Xu said in a strange way.

"The old lady really sent Zhixia, I'm afraid Mrs. Wang would not dare to let Zhixia cook the fifth girl's recuperating medicine." Aunt Qiao smiled.

Mrs. Xu was stunned, and also thought of some things she ignored because of her anger: "I don't give it to people, they say that the General's House doesn't care about blood and family ties. If Xiao Qingshuang's health doesn't improve if I give it to someone, it can be that the General's House deliberately instigated The servants are not dedicated, deliberately delaying Xiao Qingshuang's illness, the general's residence is on the left and right, isn't it?"

Xiao Mingzhu is not stupid either. When Aunt Qiao said this, she understood a little bit: "Zhixia is just a girl who cooks medicinal food for me, and there is nothing unusual about it. Why is it worth asking for it with such a big fanfare from the Houfu? The purpose is not to know Xia, but a prescription for me to recuperate my body."

Aunt Qiao nodded approvingly: "The rules of the old god's consultation are extremely weird. Not everyone can get a prescription from the old god. The girl got the eye of the old god, and she has been recuperating in Xin'an for 11 years. It is known to all. The Hou Mansion wanted a prescription, but he didn't want to travel thousands of miles to Xin'an to seek medical treatment, and he didn't have the confidence to impress the old god, so he turned his idea on the girl."

Mrs. Xu's complexion was already very ugly: "They made the calculations correctly, they came down again and again, and in the end, in order to preserve the reputation of the General's Mansion, I begged to give them a prescription to settle the matter."

If the Hou Mansion forced her to come step by step according to Aunt Qiao's instructions, she would most likely give Fang Zi away with a "charity" attitude in the end.

Damn, she was almost plotted by those people again.

Xiao Mingzhu was thinking, who sent Mrs. Wang to the general's mansion to ask for someone.

Is it Zhang Nannan or Xiao Qinghe.

Xiao Qinghe is a concubine who is not favored, and has little influence on Mrs. Wang, but it is related to Xiao Qingshuang, so it may not be that Mrs. Wang will not fall ill in a hurry.

Zhang Nannan is even more likely.Xiao Mingzhu was convinced that Zhang Nannan was not dead.When she deliberately raised this question, 008's answer was vague, and she had this guess in her heart.

It has to be said that although Xiao Mingzhu did not guess [-]% of the guesses correctly, she roughly guessed [-]% to [-]% of them.

　Sorry, there are some things at home, and I forgot to set the automatic update. .
