Jia's mother picked one at random during the few days selected by Jia She, and Jia She happily went back to inform everyone in the big house.

In the past few days, Wang Xifeng has been busy ordering people to open the storeroom, and all the large and small pieces of tables, chairs, screens, large beds, and gauze cabinets were carried out, taking advantage of the few days of rare good weather to dry out the moisture.

Mrs. Wang's eyes were blurred when she saw the things in the warehouse being carried out one by one.Thinking back to when my sister-in-law Jia Min got married back then, the Duke personally carried the dowry for Bai Shi who was picked out, and she was still a good thing in the mansion and followed Jia Min to marry to the Lin family.I never thought that the Jia family still left so many treasures!

"Brother Feng, I see that your complexion is not good these few days, are you tired?"

Mrs. Wang took Wang Xifeng's hand affectionately, looked carefully at Wang Xifeng's slightly pale face, and persuaded her softly, "I know you have always been strong and would not show weakness in front of others. It's just that we were aunts and nephews of first-line relatives. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, you have nothing to hide from me."

Wang Xifeng smiled and raised her hand to caress Bu Yao with the hairpin on her temples, "Auntie said this, why am I tired, and all things are done by the servant girl below, and I don't lift or move, just I have to say I’m tired when I’m sitting and drinking tea, and people don’t laugh at me when they look at me.”

Mrs. Wang smiled faintly, "It's not because of this, I went to your room early this morning, and I happened to meet your maid... named Ping'er. I also said that she is also diligent in daily life. Who would want to see her lounging in the house after going there. I asked a few girls serving in your house, and they all said that she was nauseated early in the morning and couldn't eat anything. I'm afraid she's going to be sick I'm angry with you, I just asked you when I saw that your face is not very good at the moment. You don't have to worry about it."

Wang Xifeng was slightly surprised, "Since she doesn't feel well, can Madam send someone to see the doctor?"

Mrs. Wang nodded her forehead and said with a smile: "How should I say this? To put it bluntly, she is just a maid, and now my son opened his face in the room. Have you hired a doctor for her? You don’t have to make them crazy, I don’t think it’s a serious illness, you think about it, or ask someone to take side drugs, or ask someone to cook something for her That's enough."

At this moment, Wang Xifeng breathed a sigh of relief, touched her belly inadvertently, and said with a smile: "When she was with me at home, she often had symptoms of seasonal changes. It's not a big deal, just follow me." Some of the maids are also very close to her on weekdays. I told them later that they don't need to give her anything to do for the time being, and just grab a pair of the medicine they used to take."

As Wang Xifeng said, her phoenix eyes slightly raised, and a three-point intimacy appeared on her lips.

"To tell the truth from my aunt, I still have something to ask my aunt to find a way for me. I am young, and the old man said that he would pick up some people who are not commonly used in our house and take them away. Let me see if anyone is willing In the past. But I asked, but I refused to go to the General’s Mansion. It’s not easy for me to talk to the old man, so I asked my aunt to give her an idea.”

Mrs. Wang pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "You are confused. Since the old man said so, just tell him the truth, and he won't blame you. Besides, there are hundreds if not thousands of people serving in our house. No, isn’t there those who are lazy and slippery? There are also those who don’t obey your discipline on weekdays, wouldn’t it be good for my son to take advantage of this moment to send everyone out?”

Wang Xifeng was enlightened, and she hugged Mrs. Wang's arm and laughed non-stop.

"My aunt is knowledgeable, why didn't I think of this idea. My aunt is too. I am busy picking things in the warehouse for the old man and the others to take away, but I don't know what is good and what is bad, and I don't know. What registration book should I take, and I don’t know what to put in the basket. If Auntie has time, it would be good to help me!”

Mrs. Wang was waiting for her words, so she was naturally happy to hear her say that.She patted her hand with a smile, and said: "Our family has a fixed number of things in the past, and after a few lifetimes, it has been accumulated. There are also dowry from the wives and grandmas of each house, and there are also things that are rewarded by the nobles. Don't talk about you, Even I may not be able to recognize it all.”

As he said that, he asked someone to call Zhou Rui's family, pointed to Zhou Rui's family and said, "Your elder sister Zhou is a meticulous and thoughtful person. She used to go into the warehouse with Lai Momo to order things. Now my son invites her Let’s help Palm Eye together so that we won’t miss it.”

The aunt and nephew looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.

Within a few days, most of the things in the warehouse were taken away by Madam Wang and Wang Xifeng with various excuses.Some say that the furniture items have been in disrepair for a long time, and some say that they are antique calligraphy and paintings brought by the family as a dowry.Mother Jia knew what Madam Wang was like, but she really didn't want to share things with Jia Amnesty, so she just turned a blind eye to Madam Wang's actions.

Anyway, in the end it will be left to Baoyu, and she has nothing to worry about.

When she was thinking about it, when she heard Wang Xifeng come to answer her question, Mother Jia showed a slight indifference, and said: "You have worked hard for the past few days, and the old man and his family will go to the General's Mansion tomorrow morning. You Today, I have to show him the things that I want to send to the old man as soon as possible."

Wang Xifeng quickly answered "Yes".It was still early when we left Jia Mu's place, but when we went to Rongxi Hall, Jia Amnesty was not there.Only Mrs. Zhang took Yingchun and Nianchun to do needlework in the house.

Wang Xifeng smiled and greeted Zhang first, then touched Nianchun's face, and asked her with a smile: "Seventh sister is getting more and more delicate now, what kind of flower is my son drawing now, she is so beautiful .”

Nianchun's face flushed slightly, and she hid the shape of the flower in her hand so that no one else could see it.Yingchun explained with a smile: "My wife painted Molan herself, and now my son will draw it like that."

"The wife's painter is really amazing!"

Wang Xifeng smiled and complimented for a while, then smiled and explained to Mrs. Zhang, and handed Mrs. Zhang the list in her hand.

"It was supposed to be for the Elder Master. Who would have thought that my son's arrival would be unlucky. I heard that the Elder Master left early in the morning. Hey, please take the trouble to take a look at the Elder Madam, but there is something wrong."

Mrs. Zhang only took a quick scan, and found that most of the items on the list were things with good-looking names, but they were actually worthless.Because he glanced at the list and put it aside, instead he glanced at Wang Xifeng with a half-smile. "It's hard for you to be busy these days, and we feel sorry. Your uncle thinks, he doesn't have to bring a lot of things, he just needs to bring all the utensils and ornaments left to him by the old Duke."

Wang Xifeng was slightly taken aback, "I've never heard old ladies and wives mention this before."

Mrs. Zhang put down the half-embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and said with a smile: "I can't blame you for not knowing how long you have been married."

Wang Xifeng blushed, and bewilderedly realized that the normally taciturn old lady still had such hidden needles in her eyes, she quickly thought in her heart that if she showed timidity at this time, she was afraid that the things she had hidden would be turned out of her face Also lost.Yin cheered up, smiled and said: "What the eldest lady said is that I am young, and I don't have much time to be a housekeeper. It is not uncommon if I don't know. Please also ask the eldest lady to make a detailed list for me. , I can compare them one by one to find out the things.”

Zhang smiled and winked at Nianchun.

Nianchun understood, and took out a one-foot-long piece of paper from a small brocade box on the top of the kang.It was densely packed with words written in small script, Wang Xifeng took it over and looked at it, only to feel dizzy.

"My lord hasn't felt very sorry for the past few days. He said that you are tired of running around for our family's affairs. You are moving and lifting, and up and down. The things on this piece of paper It was all decided by the old man himself when the old man was alive. I'm afraid the son will ask Zhu's daughter-in-law to check it carefully."

Wang Xifeng's eyes widened, this... all these?

Looking at the handwriting on the paper, Wang Xifeng's head suddenly became dizzy.Jia's mother never revealed this matter, but Mrs. Zhang is not the kind of person who is calm and troubled.In addition, half of the above things have already entered Mrs. Wang's private treasury. Now if she wants to spit it out again, I'm afraid it will not be so easy.

"how?"

Wang Xifeng frowned in embarrassment, "Madam doesn't know, the warehouse is closed all year round, it's dark and damp inside, and many of the furniture are moldy. There are still several screens in the previous one. They are all high-quality rosewood screens. , it's just a pity."

"You don't have to worry about that. I'm afraid you won't be too busy these days, so I specially asked a few women in charge to help. They are also old people, and most of the things in the warehouse can be recognized. I heard them come back and say that everything written on the Grand Master’s list is still in good condition, not damaged at all.”

Wang Xifeng felt a "thump" in his heart, thinking that he was busy instructing women to carry things these few days, just asking for enough manpower, so where did he ask for his experience.Hearing Mrs. Zhang's words now, she suddenly felt terrified.Could it be that Mrs. Zhang had expected that she would fill her own pockets, so she had placed people by her side in advance, in the name of helping, but actually monitoring?

Wang Xifeng was in a daze, but two women came in to answer at the door.

Mrs. Zhang responded lightly.The two women came in, saluted respectfully and stood still.Mrs. Zhang then pointed out these two people to Wang Xifeng, "Look, Zhuer's daughter-in-law, are they?"

"Exactly. It's weird that I said they look so familiar. So it's Sister Wu and Sister Liu."

Mrs. Zhang asked: "You have also read the list made by the previous master, is there anything wrong?"

Both wives shook their heads, "There is nothing wrong with it. They have been exposed to moisture, and they are all polished, so they are the same as new ones. They are all old things. Let's take a look at them." It’s because the Grand Duke personally pointed out that he wanted to leave it to the Grand Master.”

These two people have served in Jia's house since they were young, and most of the things in Jia's house have been seen in their eyes.

Wang Xifeng saw that she couldn't hide it, so she forced a smile and said: "I am young and don't know the importance, maybe there are some valuable things that I mistakenly regard as worthless and throw aside. It's like a treasure, I'm afraid there are some. Please ask the two sisters to open the warehouse again with me, and take a careful inventory."

Mrs. Zhang nodded and said with a smile: "Zhu'er's daughter-in-law is really very organized. You two are not allowed to fool her, otherwise we are not going to take her away. We have to make it clear to her whether it is good or bad."

Wang Xifeng quickly thanked them, and took the two people around the Rongxi Hall and went to the warehouse.

Feng'er hurried to Mrs. Wang's main courtyard under Wang Xifeng's wink. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Mrs. Wang reclining on the couch talking to Baoyu.Only then did Feng'er understand what she came for, Madam Wang's originally kind and gentle smile immediately changed, and she slapped Feng'er backhandedly!

"Snapped--"

"Where did your grandma learn to be full of calculations? She caused Zhu'er's first child to be conceived, and now she is going to harm me again! Our Jia family can't afford such a vicious woman, let her go back Go to my mother's house!"
