Chapter 391 You're so cute when you're nervous
Chapter 391 You look so cute when you are nervous
The method of the Prince of Ancheng County Xiao Mingyu is actually quite simple.
He used a trick to attract the water to the east.
The day before yesterday, I was talking about the case of Yongning Hou occupying his son's house, and yesterday I started talking about the case of the Minister of Works killing his daughter-in-law.
It turned out that the Minister of Works had a gentle and polite son. He studied at home on weekdays and was very diligent and knowledgeable. He got very close to prominent families everywhere, waited for ratings, and then recommended to be an official.
Unexpectedly, he caused a scandal of killing his wife.
His original wife died suddenly the year before yesterday, and there was no news outside. He also kept the filial piety for his original wife for a year, very affectionate. Three months ago, he re-established his new young grandmother, with a strong personality.
The new young grandmother was almost beaten to death. Although her mother's family was not prominent, her father and brother loved her and were very strong, causing this matter.
Joining the original wife's father and brother, the two families besieged the Minister of Works' Mansion, which made a big fuss.
For a moment, everyone's conversation was about this matter. In Xue Mei's words, the trivial matter of Yongning Hou occupying a maid fell out of the hot search list.
In this dynasty, he was able to become a minister of the Shangshu and had a strong backer behind him, and could not be easily defeated. If Prince Ancheng had not contributed to the fire, the family members of the two young ladies would not have dared to make such a fierce fight.
Now, they have a clear mind and know that the bigger the trouble, the better.
Whether it is seeking justice for his daughter or for the promise of the little prince, this matter cannot be done well for the time being.
It also alarmed the court.
"...The little prince is really amazing." Xue Mei said, "As soon as you take action, the wind direction will immediately change."
Prince Ancheng: "A piece of cake."
Xue Mei remembered Xiao Jingcheng.
When Xiao Jingcheng was a cat, the former young lady from the Minister of Works' Office had already been killed by domestic violence. He probably didn't know about this.
In this dynasty, although women have a low status, good people cannot be killed casually.
"Killing a wife" can even arouse public anger.
She agreed to Xiao Mingyu and wanted to help see his wasteland. The two of them agreed to set off the day after tomorrow.
It's already mid-May, and the more you drag, the hotter the weather is, so you still have to go and go back early.
Xue Mei sent someone to tell Xiao Jingcheng about this.
Xiao Jingcheng immediately came and said to her: "I'll accompany you."
"Isn't the defense camp busy?"
Xiao Jingcheng: “…”
"Are you worried that my son and he and I will easily get angry?" Xue Mei asked.
Xiao Jingcheng didn't understand the word "shot" but it didn't prevent him from understanding Xue Mei's meaning.
He shook his head: "No."
Xue Mei doesn't like Xiao Mingyu.
Xiao Jingcheng discovered that Xue Mei actually prefers Wen Zhao's kind, who is handsome and has a simple mind. Perhaps in her heart, men are also a kind of entertainment, and people who are too complicated have lost their original intention of joy.
"That's good." Xue Mei smiled, "You can rest assured."
"I'm still worried." Xiao Jingcheng said, "You go again in a few days and wait until I've been busy for a while."
Xue Mei couldn't help laughing.
Xiao Jingcheng: "What are you laughing at?"
"You are nervous about my appearance, so cute." Xue Mei said.
Xiao Jingcheng: “…”
I'm no longer your cat.
Xue Mei said again: "You are busy with yours. My elder brother is free in the yamen. Let him take a leave for a few days and he will accompany me. Can this be done?"
Of course not good!
Xiao Jingcheng did not trust Xue Chi very much, so it was not very meaningful to ask Xue Chi to accompany him.
However, after Xue Mei said so, he insisted on provoking the tricks and let her down.
"Okay." He showed his generousness, "Let your brother accompany you."
When the matter was right, Xue Mei was relieved. When she looked at Xiao Jingcheng again, she felt that this person was well everywhere and had almost no shortcomings that Xue Mei hated.
Most importantly, he looks good.
As Yan Gou, Xue Mei thinks that a person is beautiful and can be forgiven for doing anything, just like she thinks that Wen Zhao's stupidity and Xiao Jingcheng's straight man are all advantages.
During dinner, Xue Mei told her elder brother Xue Chi about this.
Because of the Yongning Marquis Mansion, my elder brother has been embarrassed in the yamen these days.
He just happened to want to take leave for a few days.
However, he was more or less reluctant to accompany Xue Mei and Xiao Mingyu out.
It would be great if I could go out. Xue Chi covered up this unhappiness and nodded: "Okay, how many days' leave will I take?"
"Five days."
Xue Chi agreed.
When Xue Chi took her leave, Xue Mei began to pack up the box. This time, Jinping must follow her when she went out for a long trip, followed by Hongluan.
While packing the box, Xiuzhu was busy for a while and had to go out to deal with some things. Hongluan kept looking for maids, all of which were serious.
Xue Mei felt that Huiningyuan wanted to promote a few second-class maids, and this matter was urgent.
Xiuzhu, Caiyuan and Hongluan are in charge of more and more things; not to mention Dai's mother, she is in charge of the entire princess's mansion.
Finally packed up the things, Xue Mei asked them to sit in front of him and told her what she thought.
Huiningyuan must have at least four more maids to serve.
Xiuzhu: "Miss, we moved here last year, and my mother Dai and I bought a few maids, and each of them paid attention to four. Then when we cleaned up, these maids were clean and loyal."
Xue Mei: "..."
She didn't expect Xiuzhu to think so far.
"If you have time, come back and take you to pick it up." Xiu Zhu said.
Xue Mei: "You have time now, call me here and take a look."
These maids all serve in the needle and thread room, and usually take care of the maids such as Dai Mother and Xiuzhu, and are very hardworking.
Six were called.
There were only four in Xue Mei's yard. She looked at it and two of them were too thin. Xue Mei felt a little guilty when she called her, as if she was abused.
So she kicked these two very thin maids out.
The four maids, each with their own names, are temporarily doing the job of second-class maids.
Xue Mei wrote down their names and asked them to retreat, and they would serve in Huiningyuan in the future.
"You should be careful. Loyalty and diligence are important, and these two points cannot be violated. Everything else is easy to say." Xue Mei said.
Dai's mother wrote it down.
Xiao Mingyu's arrangements were made, Xue Chi took a leave and they set out tomorrow.
At noon, Xue Mei was still packing up some things for travel. The little maid on the second door came to report that the eldest grandmother of the Cao family was here.
She has been waiting.
After Cao Yujun came, if the Cao family did not send anyone, this would be strange.
The eldest young lady was very embarrassed and her voice was not very natural when she spoke to Xue Mei.
It can be seen that she was ordered to come, and she herself was not very happy.
"... I'll ask the princess to make a lot of things about Yu Jun. Don't tell me about it, as it delays Yu Jun's marriage. I'm still more than a year old, so we may not be able to wait." said the eldest young lady.
At this point in time, no matter whether you can't wait or not, it gives people a feeling of "studying down".
The eldest young lady came from a famous family and was very disgusted with such behaviors, so she was so embarrassed that she was so embarrassed.
However, her mother-in-law told her that she could not disobey her, so she had to bite the bullet and come.
I heard that Princess Chengyang is very arrogant, and the eldest grandmother of the Cao family is very worried that she will be beaten out.
