BXBX NOVEL Chapter 159: ask questions
"It was said that oil was spilled on the ground, but the servant went to the kitchen to ask later, but no one took the oil from the kitchen, so I don't know where the oil came from." Bai Ling was very annoyed, "The servant will go to find out tomorrow. "
Xie Zhi said softly, "You have been out with me for a whole day, and you only came back to inquire so much. It is already hard work. This is not urgent. You go down to get ten taels of silver, and you have to inquire about it from people. , don’t you want to socialize? Take it to buy some silk flowers, or buy some delicious food, so as to win people’s hearts.”
"Yes, thank you, girl!" Bailing did not suspect Yanmei. Speaking of silk flowers, Bailing thought of one thing, "I heard from Juaner in the wife's yard today that she lives in the same room as Yanmei sister. Sister Mei has an extra pair of gold silk earrings in her hand, I don't know if it was a gift from my wife."
Xie Zhiwei thought for a while, her mother didn't seem to have gold earrings, and if she had any earrings suitable for girls, she would be the first to ask her to pick them out, she nodded, "You've been tired all day, go earlier rest!"
Outside the door, Zi Mo came in and said, "Girl, Mother Tian is here with flowers."
Zi Mo also knows that the appearance is just an excuse. Xie Zhiwei wanted Fuyunyuan to look like a flower, but he still had to ask for it himself, and Madam Tian delivered it in person? Either Gan Tang or Qian Mei can help her settle this matter.
"Come in, please!"
Nurse Tian came in soon, and wanted to salute Xie Zhiwei, but Xie Zhiwei hurriedly stopped him, "Nurse Tian is an old man in front of my mother, so you don't have to be polite with me."
As he spoke, he ordered Zi Mo, "Bring a stool for Mammy!"
Nurse Tian was so grateful, she only dared to sit on half of her buttocks.
The two talked a few words first, Xie Zhiwei looked at it carefully, handed it to Zi Mo, and started to get down to business, "I have heard about the thing about my mother falling, and it is said that she slipped on the oil. Well, it stands to reason that there are quite a few people in front of my mother, so why didn't anyone pull her to make her fall like that?"
"Speaking of which, the servant also felt strange. At that time, Miss Danfeng was called to speak by Miss Lanluan in the old lady's room. Xue Xing guarded the yard, and the servant returned to the hearing hall to get the kerchief that the wife forgot there. , there is only Miss Yanmei in front of the wife, and she also fell heavily, presumably she didn't have time to support the wife. The other wives and mothers-in-law are farther away, and their hands and feet are not so fast."
Xie Zhiwei had already figured it out in his mind, and had to admire this girl for being able to wash herself clean, so that no one would doubt her.
She didn't ask any more, but said, "Call Mammy, there is another matter. Mammy also knows that Mammy Qiu is left by my mother. I have been here all these years thanks to Mammy. Her husband There is a nephew in the family who has been adopted by Mammy. He is good, but he is a little bad. He is crippled and has trouble moving. Mammy Qiu wants to find a warm and comfortable person for this heir. I can't decide who is better. Hearing Mammy say that Yanmei is loyal, I looked at her coldly and thought she was a nice person, so I asked Mammy to tell my mother when I go back, and I will exchange the maid in front of me with my mother."
Mother Tian was inevitably disappointed, she didn't show her face, got up and bowed to Xie Zhiwei and retreated, and after leaving the Yizhaoyuan, she let out a long sigh, thinking, if it was her own mother and daughter, the eldest girl must be filled with righteous indignation at this moment ?
Where would you think of looking for a wife for the nanny's heir, and even calling the idea on the wife?
It's just that others don't know the wife's heart for the eldest girl, but Nanny Tian knows it. I can only say that this is fate, and the wife's life is not good.
In this life, the most fearful thing is that if you treat people with all your heart and soul, you will never be able to exchange this sincerity in your life.
The next day, after breakfast, Xie Mingxi was taken to the front yard by Xie Yuanbai to study. Xie Zhiwei invited a few more days to his boudoir's home. His mother fell and was injured, and she had to stay at home to take care of her illness.
At the Listening Hall, Xie Zhiwei had to sit in the town. She was sitting on the chair that Mrs. Yuan used to sit on, a large grand teacher's chair. Although she is small, she has a majesty in her body. I heard that the eldest girl is helping the wife to manage the council, but the lucky person came at this time. Seeing the majesty exuded from Xie Zhiwei involuntarily, everyone's heart shuddered.
Grandma Tian accompanied Xie Zhiwei, stood aside, and waited until everyone had passed the news, before she raised her voice, "Because my wife is not feeling well, I asked the eldest girl to take care of the housework for a few days. These days, the big guy's skin is tighter." , be more careful than in the past, if you fool the eldest girl casually, the wife will not obey if she finds out!"
When Xie Zhiwei saw the people in the underground, there were few who listened to it, and some people were indifferent. I think these people are thinking, no matter who will be the director, how to do it or how to do it, just do things seriously anyway, Xie Zhiwei is also It's not that people are afraid of her, she also values such people.
However, most of the people remained expressionless, and some even rolled their eyes at Nanny Tian. Xie Zhiwei calmly served a bowl of tea, seeing all these people in her eyes, she has been a human being in two lifetimes, and she still recognizes all the women in charge of the family.
After Madam Tian's words fell, Xie Zhiwei lifted his sleeves, smoothed them, and said slowly, "Since Nanny Tian talked about my mother's body, let's start with this matter today! Who is cleaning this corridor in the middle of the Auditorium? Stand up and let me see!"
All eyes fell on a daughter-in-law. She was short in stature, wearing a red jacket and a green satin vest with teeth pinched. She had a bun on the back of her head, and two red gold flat squares were stuck in it. Came here, greeted Xie Zhiwei, glanced up secretly, and pursed his lips secretly.
"Slaves from Zhou Fang's family, please greet the eldest girl!"
"From Zhou Fang's family?" Xie Zhiwei pretended that he didn't see the little actions of this daughter-in-law, and knew that his own status alone was not enough to make these people value him, so he said, "Zhou Fang goes out with the second master on weekdays? "
Zhou Fang's family was taken aback. They didn't expect that the eldest girl would know who her man was at such an age. He bowed and said, "Yes!"
"Oh, I still remember that your mother-in-law is Chang Nai who is in charge of combing the old lady's hair? So, Chang is her maiden name?"
Whether to call her maiden's surname or in-law's surname also depends on the owner's mouth.
After Xie Zhiwei finished speaking, he picked up the tea and took a sip, keeping his eyes on Zhou Fang's house. Seeing her trembling all over, he quickly knelt down, "Young lady has a good memory!"
"It's not that I have a good memory! From Zhou Fang's family, let me ask you, where did the oil on the tunnel come from yesterday?"
"Miss, although the servants are in charge of the cleaning in that area, there are a dozen or so little maids under their hands. They do all these jobs. The servants just watch over them on weekdays. Don't tell them to be lazy. How can there be twelve hours of work?" Staring at it?" Zhou Fang's family finished speaking and laughed.
"That's how it is!" Xie Zhiwei seemed to realize it suddenly, and when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Xie Zhiwei put the tea bowl on the table heavily, "Come on, bring all the ten or so maids in, and I'll pour them in." You have to ask if everyone doesn't know how the oil was poured on it!"
The first update!
