Reborn to be married, the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion is so sweet

There were two groups of people in Lin Wan's yard. One group was the dowry she brought from the Lin family, and the other group was the servants that Xiao Shi transferred from the Marquis' Mansion to serve her after her marriage.

Now that Lin Wan has obtained the power of housekeeper, and with the decentralization of Xiao, Gao Mama helps her lead the people. The servants of the Marquis' Mansion understand Lin Wan's status as the housekeeper's wife, so Lin Wan will be able to manage things more smoothly in the future.

Lin Wan looked at the list in her hand and said to Mother Liu beside her: "My yard is newly opened, and I am not familiar with it inside and out. It needs someone to look after it the most. Mother Liu, you will stay in the yard and help me look after it from now on."

Madam Liu was startled and immediately stopped smiling. "Young Madam, leave the yard-keeping to Qingping and the other maids. I am your housekeeper and will definitely stay by your side."

Lin Wan looked at her with a smile and said coldly, "Why, is Madam Liu's management also affecting me? I am not discussing the things I arranged for you with you. If you think my yard is not worthy of your management, then go back to the Lin family!"

Mother Liu didn't expect Lin Wan to be so tough, so she could only lower her head and say, "I don't dare."

Lin Wan glanced at her indifferently and sneered in her heart.

In her previous life, Mother Liu was also her housekeeper. She took advantage of her and took advantage of Wang's orders as her authority. She interfered in Lin Wan's affairs in the Shen family and secretly contacted Lin Fu's people to sow discord between her and her mother-in-law, causing her a lot of suffering.

Now that Lin Wan knows the true face of Liu Mama, she will no longer use her. But Liu Mama is her dowry mother, and she cannot be punished arbitrarily if she has not made any mistakes. The best way is to give her a job that can save face but has no real power and can keep her in the yard.

After dealing with Mama Liu, Lin Wan raised the status of the four maids who came with her as a dowry with the character "Qing" in their names and made them first-class maids who served her closely. Qinglian was the head, and there were three other maids, Qingping, Qingyu and Qingmei, who were in charge of all matters in her courtyard.

In this way, the position of housekeeper is not so important. Lin Wan thought that she would look for it slowly. If she found a suitable housekeeper in the future, she would replace Qinglian. She could use this time to find a good in-law family for her and marry Qinglian into the family with great fanfare.

As for the other people in the courtyard, for the time being, the majority were those brought by the Lin family. Although Lin Wan did not have a close relationship with the Lin family, the servants were not very loyal to her, and even cared more about the Lin family.

But none of this matters. As long as she is established in the Marquis' Mansion, over time, the servants will naturally understand that only by being loyal to her can they benefit.

Lin Wan had not thought about buying some new servants. After all, it was harder to grasp the background of the ones she bought, and it would take a lot of time and energy to train them.

Although the Lin family members were not loyal to her now, they were all family-born children, and some even came with their entire families as dowries. Relatively speaking, they were easier to control.

"Qinglian, take some silver to the kitchen. The servants in the mansion worked hard yesterday. Let's add some dishes for them today. By the way, prepare some red envelopes so that everyone can come and collect the wedding money when they are free."

After explaining all this, Lin Wan whispered to Qingyu: "I remember that it has been almost three months since Mother Chang went back. Please contact her. If things at home have been arranged, ask her to go to the farm to help me check the situation."

In addition to being the young lady and new mistress of the Yongning Marquis's mansion, Lin Wan also has her own dowry farm and shop. Lin Wan is going to hand these over to her wet nurse, Chang Mama, who is watching outside.

Chang Mama's daughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat boy, and Chang Mama went back to take care of her. Before she came back, Lin Wan got married. So she has been at home all the time, and now it is convenient for her to manage her dowry.

After arranging these, Lin Wan went to the main courtyard.

Visiting one's parents every morning and evening is something a daughter-in-law must do. Although Mrs. Xiao said that she didn't care about the rules when she served tea this morning, Lin Wan still went there obediently.

Mrs. Xiao was in much better spirits than in the morning. When she saw Lin Wan coming, she happily pulled her aside to talk.

"Your father and I have already reprimanded Tingxu today and asked him to kneel in the ancestral hall to sober up. Don't worry, it will definitely not delay your return home."

Lin Wan lowered her head and smiled: "My daughter-in-law knows that my mother is good to me. But the health of the prince is also important, so my daughter-in-law thought of asking someone to send some sugar water over. I don't know..."

As he spoke, he looked at Xiao inquiringly.

Seeing that she was still concerned about Lu Tingxu's health, Xiao felt very relieved. She patted her hand and said, "I'll do whatever you say."

"You are the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion now. You can make the decisions on anything in the future. You don't need to tell me."

Marquis Lu went to the palace again in the afternoon and did not come back, so Lin Wan accompanied Xiao for dinner. Mother Gao also specially served Lin Wan's favorite dishes, which were all inquired about by Xiao in advance. Lin Wan felt warm in her heart. It was really good to feel valued.

In the Lin family, Lin Wan has always been marginalized. Wang's heart is always Lin Fu, Lin Heng, and Lin Zhigao. She has never cared about what Lin Wan likes to eat or use.

The warmth that Lin Wan didn't feel from Wang was felt from Xiao on the first day of her marriage.

After dinner, Xiao looked at Lin Wan with some hesitation.

Lin Wan drank tea and looked at Xiao's face as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. She understood that it was probably about Miss Ye, so she didn't urge her.

"Wan'er, um, how do you think we should deal with Ye Shiyue's matter?"

Xiao asked. She had been thinking about this matter for a whole day and didn't know what to do.

According to Xiao's idea, they could just find a manor for Ye Shiyue to live in, and then see if they could find a suitable family for her to marry off. Otherwise, it didn't matter if they just kept her as a child.

But Lu Tingxu refused to agree, saying that he couldn't bear to see her suffer.

Xiao looked at Lin Wan who was sitting quietly beside her. Tingxu wanted to marry the girl from the Ye family. But this was too much for Lin Wan. Xiao felt so sorry for her daughter-in-law.

"Wan'er, I have discussed it with your father. I have a manor on the western border. It was bought when we went to war. After we came back, it has been used to accommodate some widows of soldiers who don't want to return home. I plan to send Ye Shiyue there."

Lin Wan was stunned. She thought Xiao wanted to bring the person back! She didn't expect that they wanted to send him away.

The place was used by the Xiao family to take care of the soldiers' families. Everyone there had experienced life and death, and most of them had strong personalities.

This is a solution.

But thinking that Ye Shiyue had completely replaced Lin Fu, the real young lady, in the Marquis' Mansion in the previous life, Lin Wan didn't think she was someone who was willing to give up power and pursue freedom.

"That's a good idea." Lin Wan said with a smile: "Although I have never met Miss Ye, I think the one that both mother and the prince like must be a good one!"
