Love in the Red Chamber is full of Xiaoxiang

Chapter 175: The Power of the Mistress

Nan Qing returned to Taoye Residence full of sadness, feeling uneasy about things, she wished she could immediately curse the people in that yard to die early.

Xiu Yi came with tea, and comforted her again: "Master, drink your saliva, and let your breath flow. Now that you don't have to worry about it, it's better to take good care of your body."

Nan Qing twisted her mouth: "Now I'm not even as good as a girl. If this continues, there will be no room for me to talk in this mansion. It's too bullying. Now even Xiyue dares to refute the things in our house. No matter, what is she? It's just relying on someone to support her. I want to see how much face she has!"

Sufei said: "Sister Xiyue said that every room has to be cut down."

Nan Qing yelled: "Fart! Who are you from in the house, and you still help them speak. Now you are bullying us just because there is no one in our house."

Xiu Yi lightly reprimanded Su Fei for being ignorant, and then comforted Nan Qing: "Master, be patient, why worry. Let's plan this matter slowly, everyone in the house is dedicated to the master. The master has a reputation, we These servants also have face, so they naturally think of the master."

At this time, the golden lady who didn't speak much said: "Isn't the princess sick here? Why don't you sell yourself to the master and invite a good sister-in-law to pray for blessings."

Upon hearing this, Nan Qing said again: "You didn't see the expression on the prince's face, so don't talk about it anymore."

Mrs. Jin laughed: "The princess doesn't know what this old slave means. Naturally, this matter has to be carefully considered." Then she whispered to Nan Qing for a while.

After hearing this, Nan Qing pondered for a moment before nodding her head and said, "Very good, you will have someone bring her in tomorrow. I want to see how powerful she is."

Not long after breakfast on the second day, Mrs. Jin led a Ma Daopo in.

Nan Qing looked up and down, and saw that she was wearing a gray Taoist robe, with a mahogany hairpin stuck in her hair. She was 40 years old, described as thin, with a sallow complexion.Long horse face, high protruding cheekbones, and a pair of eyeballs. Since entering the mansion, the eyes have been turning around, looking here and there.

When it came to Taoyeju, the maidservant had passed it on.Jin Pozi took Ma Daopo into the inverted seat in the south.Nan Qing sat on the chair and drank tea slowly.

Mrs. Jin and Mrs. Ma entered the door, and Mrs. Jin was about to speak, but Mrs. Ma jumped up first: "Oh, tsk tsk, my lady is the fate of the rich and the rich." Then she bowed down and kowtowed.

Her sudden action stunned the people in the room, not knowing what she was going to do, Nan Qing panicked and went to help Dao Po Ma: "Great Immortal, get up quickly, I have something to ask you."

Ma Daopo looked around Nan Qing again, stared and said: "You have a good life, but you have a little bit of bad luck, and these little devils around you snatched it away."

When Nan Qing heard this, she pricked up her ears and asked, "Are you serious?"

Ma Daopo muttered a few words.

Jin Pozi took the opportunity to speak to Nan Qing again: "This fairy girl has profound magic power, if you need anything, please ask her."

Seeing that there was no one beside her, Nan Qing whispered a few words to Ma Daopo quietly, Ma Daopo nodded repeatedly, and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, don't worry."

Nan Qing promised a lot of benefits. Ma Daopo said she wanted 200 taels of silver. Nan Qing couldn't afford so much cash for a while, so she had to add a few strings of money to the scattered silver she had accumulated on weekdays, and later took out The pair of jade bracelets given to her by the concubine back then, this is the end.

Ma Daopo took out a blue-clothed paper figure from her bosom, and asked Nan Qing to write the birth date of the mischievous little ghost on it, handed Nan Qing a spell, and hurried back to say that she was going to set up an altar.

Nan Qing ordered someone to find out the horoscope of her birthday, and she carefully wrote it down, thinking that Ma Daopo would do the method at home, and only wait for the moment when it comes true, then she can sit back and relax.

After arranging everything with great pains, Nan Qing felt a little uneasy after all.

At this time, Guan's mother came, and said to Nan Qing, "My concubine welcomes you."

Nan Qing panicked and asked, "Wangfei, is Wangfei okay?"

Mother Guan was a little surprised, and said casually: "The princess has something to ask the side concubine, go quickly."

Nan Qing brought her embroidered clothes and followed Mama Guan to the courtyard.

Daiyu was teasing the snow-white parrot on the parrot stand in the corridor, she didn't move when she saw Nan Qing coming.Until Nan Qing came to bless her body, she raised her eyebrows and said: "My concubine asked me to come here, what's the matter?"

Daiyu grabbed some broken rice and gave it to the parrot. The snow-white parrot pecked at the rice, looking very happy.Involuntarily fluttered a few times, and flapped her wings, Daiyu hurriedly avoided, cursing in a low voice: "If you want to die, you will be covered in ashes again."

Nan Qing couldn't avoid it, she let the dust fall into her eyes, she took a handkerchief and rubbed it slowly.

Daiyu looked at her, and because Nan Qing was very tall and strong, she looked like a pissed off daughter-in-law this time, so she suppressed her smile and said, "It's hard work for my side concubine to go, I need to ask my side concubine for advice. please."

In the east room, Daiyu was sitting on the kang, Nan Qing was a little puzzled, and because of those private matters, somehow she was very timid here today, and she didn't dare to look at Daiyu directly, so she just Slanted and sat down on the chair below.

Liu Ye'er brought tea, and Daiyu said, "Go and call your sister Xiyue."

Liu Yeer went down in response.

Daiyu took two sips of tea and said to Nan Qing: "The side concubine has been in charge of the family for many years, so the big and small things in the mansion are naturally more familiar than me, and now that she is new in charge, there must be some things that I need to ask my side concubine. Ask Please be considerate of the side concubine."

Nan Qing frowned slightly, her premonition was a bit ominous, but there was an illusory smile on her face: "The princess is still so modest after all, by the way, I don't know if the princess is in better health? The whole family is worried."

Daiyu nodded and smiled, "Thank you for remembering, I'm safe too."

While talking, Xiyue had already come, so Daiyu asked Xiyue to sit, and Xiyue only sat on a small bed by the edge of the kang.Daiyu smiled and said: "Xiyue, the side concubine is also here, if there is anything Xiyue doesn't understand, just ask."

Xiyue hurriedly got up and said to Nan Qing: "My concubine asked me to help manage the accounts, but there was one account that I couldn't get right after the left and right calculations. I also asked the side concubine for advice." Then she showed Nan Qing the account book.

Although Nan Qing was illiterate, she knew how to read the accounts. After a quick glance, she saw that it was a sum of 300 taels. Her face gradually turned pale, but she said with a straight face, "I'm confused about this too, Xiyue Miss, can I ask the cashier, it must be a waste of money."

Xiyue still smiled and said: "I also asked Mr. Yu in the account room, let me ask the Nan side concubine for advice. If so, please ask the side concubine for advice."

Daiyu sat there without opening her mouth, but slowly fiddled with a tea whisk on the kang table.Below stood two girls who were ordering back and forth, and several women.

Seeing this, Nan Qing knew that she might not be able to escape today.She got up in a panic and said to Daiyu: "Wangfei Mingjian, this is an old account, and I can't remember it clearly, maybe I made a mistake at the beginning."

Daiyu sneered: "When I was still living in Qixia Courtyard, I heard that the side concubine was so cautious and capable in managing affairs, how could there be such a big mistake, I didn't really understand these things, so I just came to ask my side concubine, but my side concubine gave me a misremembered explanation." He said with a smile, "We don't really understand these principles, why don't we wait for the prince to come back and ask him for advice?"

Nan Qing trembled slightly, almost crying and begged: "Princess, please do me a favor, don't tell the prince for now. If I think about this money, I might remember it."

Daiyu smiled and said, "That's fine, maybe the side concubine has forgotten something, think about it again." So she got up and got off the kang.Nan Qing hurried forward to help, but Dai Yu gave her hand to Xiyue, Dai Yu smiled and said to Nan Qing: "Please remember the side concubine earlier, the Double Ninth Festival is still waiting to be used."

Nan Qing tremblingly agreed.

Daiyu smiled and helped Xiyue out.Nan Qing's face was like gold paper, she slumped in the chair, trembling.Terrible account, tell her where to get the money now.It was hard to save some self-esteem, and now it has cost a lot for Ma Daopo to do things.

She thumped her legs secretly, where to get the money now, the concubine is persecuting her so badly, if the prince really hears about it, she doesn't know how to make a fuss.Now that she doesn't care about her family, everything will come to her. One day, she will have to take over all of these.

Here Daiyu has returned to the Bisha cabinet, Xiyue said: "I don't know if this debt can be made up."

But Daiyu said relaxedly: "Don't worry, you will always come back the same way. We made it clear, and it's not like she didn't understand. The prince can calm her down just now, don't be afraid."

Xiyue said in a low voice: "In the past, I only vaguely heard that the side concubine embezzled the money from the public office, but I didn't expect to find out this."

Daiyu seemed to be not surprised: "There may be several such things in every family. Now that we have taken over, we have to figure out the past."

Xiyue said again: "Does the concubine really want to wait for the 300 taels to pass the Double Ninth Festival?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "I can't wait. There are still a few weddings and ceremonies, the future of the queen in the palace. Where there is no need for money, 300 taels may not be enough. Let's pay in advance, and make up for it when the money comes over."

Xiyue understood, so she went down to make arrangements.

Daiyu carefully traced a pattern under the window, thinking that she had never thought about the majesty of the headed mistress before.In these invisible battles at home, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.She doesn't need to dictate to anyone, and she doesn't need to be domineering. She always looks like a princess, but don't bully her head too much, and she can live in peace, so why bother making troubles.If the prince knew about it, wouldn't he be even more upset.

There is naturally a way of life in the house, so you can't be like Sister Yingchun, who was manipulated by the people in the house.
