She was too lazy to clean up after dressing up as a villain heroine

Previously, Zheng'er's marriage had not been smooth, and the second branch held most of the housekeeping power, so Cao thought it would be better to stay still than to move.

Now that Zheng Ge'er has married the princess, it seems that the couple has a pretty good relationship.

Cao was having trouble placing people in Suiyuan, so he became a little anxious.

If Brother Zheng's daughter-in-law gave birth to a legitimate son, the matter of the title would be much more difficult, if not completely hopeless.

The old lady saw everything, but she couldn't decide who to exile first before anything happened.

Just like the royal succession battle.

Madam Han said, "The second family thinks that they are my niece, and I look down on the Lin family, so I think that even if the title falls to the second family, I will be happy to see it happen."

"It's understandable that the Second Madam thinks so."

Old Madam Han smiled faintly, shook her head, closed her eyes again, and didn't finish her words.

……

The four girls who were arranged to serve in the house on the wedding night were sent back to the Personnel Department by Qiao Zhenzhen the next day.

But the story does not end there.

On the fifth day, the four Cais returned to Suiyuan with their indentures.

Given Qiao Zhenzhen's current status, she would not bother with a few servants and directly handed the person over to Xia Xiang.

She has her own set of procedures for hiring people.

Managing a garden is similar to running a small business.

As a modern person who traveled through time, Qiao Zhenzhen could not help but apply the modern management methods.

First, create a personnel file for each person.

Diancui and Ginkgo (originally named Yinzhen) are family children who have been living in the Duke's Mansion for decades, so naturally they have many relatives in a roundabout way.

Xia Xiang asked about the situation of these two people very clearly.

At first the two maids thought that the deal would be done as long as they brought the indenture contract, but they didn't expect there was this step. They were hesitant at first, but Xia Xiang was not someone to be dealt with. She made it clear directly. Those who refused to speak or did not speak clearly were told to go back to where they came from.

As a result, the two maids did not dare to hide it.

Because of their relationship, if you really ask around, it's not a secret that is impossible to find out.

Zixuan and Hailan were simple because they came from outside and had relatively simple social relationships. I only asked them where they lived before coming to the Duke's Mansion, and then asked them what they were good at and other minor questions.

Finally, the four people were asked to wait for news and the people were arranged to live in ordinary servants' dormitories.

The four people did not dare to raise any objections because they had experienced Princess Fuhui's temper from the beginning.

Xia Xiang handed the resumes she had prepared for the four people to Qiao Zhenzhen.

Qiao Zhenzhen first looked at Zixuan and Hailan. As soon as she saw that they were from Jiangnan, she had a rough idea in her mind. Then she looked at their skills and said with a smile, "They are good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting. They found two talented women to serve them. Are they here to serve others, or to be the ancestors?"

Xia Xiang sneered, "You still want to be the ancestor, give them face."

Qiao Zhenzhen said, "The courtyard is currently undergoing a major construction project and we need maids to serve tea and water. Four more of them won't be too much. If they have any objections to the assignment or can't do the job well, they can be sent back to the personnel department. What we need in Suiyuan is maids to serve people, not masters who come to enjoy themselves. Just replace them with some rough servants."

"Understood." Xia Xiang responded neatly.

Qiao Zhenzhen looked at Diancui and Hailan's resumes again and said, "They have quite a lot of family connections."

Han Zheng came in from outside at this time, and seeing her holding a stack of papers in her hand, he casually asked, "What are you reading?" Then he sat down next to Qiao Zhenzhen.

"The four Cais were sent back by the Personnel Department again, and this time they came with their indentures." Qiao Zhenzhen handed a few sheets of paper to Han Zheng, "Here are their resumes."

Han Zheng took a quick look and said directly, "It turns out that they are Second Aunt's people."

Qiao Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows, "It seems that you are not completely ignorant of this family."

Han Zheng smiled faintly: "As a prince, how could I know nothing about my family."

"You look like the kind of man who is so absorbed in his career that he doesn't care about his family."

Han Zheng laughed, "I don't care about you anymore?"

"Not really." He was even a little clingy, which was something Qiao Zhenzhen had not expected. It showed that one should not judge a book by its cover. She turned two pages and pointed, saying, "These two were bought from Jiangnan. Look at their expertise."

Han Zheng glanced around and put away his smile.

Qiao Zhenzhen leaned over and whispered, "Guangling Skinny Horse, you are so lucky. I have only heard of it before, but never seen it with my own eyes."

Han Zheng was amused by her and sighed, "You——"

Qiao Zhenzhen observed his expression and asked, "Your mother gave it to you, right?"

Cao would not give a skinny horse to her newly married nephew so openly. This was too blatant.

Han Zheng thought of his cousin who had come to Beijing before, and she probably came with Lin Wan'er at that time.

His mother was really thoughtful.

And she also knew that if she was sent to the garden as a maid and if she sent him a skinny horse openly, she would definitely be rejected.

"Go back?" Han Zheng asked.

Qiao Zhenzhen said, "He is fine, but now he is still carrying his indenture. If I go back without reason, it will seem like I am intolerant."

"Can you accommodate it?"

"Why can't we accommodate them? They are just here to be maids. Although they are from a skinny family, they are probably from a poor family. Now that the garden is being renovated, there are a lot of things to do. They can always find a job that suits them."

The premise is that they don't make trouble.

In today's society, being a maid in the Duke's Mansion and meeting a master like her who doesn't treat servants harshly is actually considered lucky.

It's better than being transferred around and being spun around by different men.

But this is just Qiao Zhenzhen's subjective opinion.

Maybe it’s hard to say whether others have lofty ambitions.

"It's up to you. If you behave yourself, keep you. If you don't, I'll deal with you later." Han Zheng's words were a bit ruthless, but for someone of his status, it was normal.

Qiao Zhenzhen didn't say anything to him about human rights or not, she just nodded in agreement.

She handed several people's resumes to Xia Xiang and said, "You go and make the arrangements."

Xia Xiang took it and walked out.

Han Zheng said, "I came here to tell you that I originally had four days off, but something happened in the military camp, so I have to go back for a meeting tomorrow."

"Want to end your wedding leave early?"

"Not necessarily. We won't know until we go there tomorrow."

"Well."

Han Zheng said regretfully: "I originally wanted to take you to the suburban racecourse to race horses tomorrow."

Qiao Zhenzhen has been busy these days with the renovation of Suiyuan and the finalization of the preliminary drawings, so she has been too busy. Now that everything is on track, she has some free time.

"No rush, there's plenty of time later." Qiao Zhenzhen said nonchalantly, "By the way, where's the white horse you said you would give me?"

After being reminded, Han Zheng remembered his previous promise and pulled Qiao Zhenzhen to go to bed.

"Come on, I'll take you to see it."

Dongxiang hurriedly put shoes on Qiao Zhenzhen.

This prevented her from stepping on the ground barefoot.

The two went to the stables in the Duke's Mansion, but they didn't find the white horse that Han Zheng mentioned.

Han Zheng said to Qingfeng: "Go ask Uncle Zhou where Xuehua is."

Qingfeng took the order and ran away. After a while, he came back with an embarrassed expression and stammered.
