BXBX NOVEL Chapter 50: Unique Suwang Mansion
The princess is trying to sell them?
Eunuch Hua also looked at Shen Mingjiao suspiciously, but he wasn't too worried. Although His Highness is not good at feelings, he still somehow believes that the person His Highness likes will not be so bad.
This is also the reason why when Feng Lisheng and Shen Mingjiao got married, Eunuch Hua gave Shen Mingjiao a big fanfare.
Shen Mingjiao seemed completely oblivious to the expressions on everyone's faces, and said with a light smile:
"Call someone in."
Not long after, a slightly plump woman with a round face walked in, bowed her head slightly and knelt respectfully to salute, she glanced at the big man in the yard without a trace out of the corner of her eye.
It has long been heard that the new Jin Su Wangfei is arrogant and domineering. She started building large-scale construction projects on the second day of her marriage. Now that she is called here, she is afraid that she is going to sell these servants in the mansion.
Thinking of this, the maid-in-law felt a little bitter. Although these servants were slaves, they were also slaves of His Royal Highness King Su. She was not afraid of anything else, but she was afraid that Princess Su had decided to sell them without authorization. When the time came, King Su would investigate When she woke up, she was the first to be unlucky.
Thanks to the trouble at the big wedding before, Shen Mingjiao's reputation outside the world couldn't be worse. What is arrogant, domineering and mean to a brother, these are trivial. What's even more outrageous is that she killed people at the slightest disagreement, and now the soil in the back garden of the palace has been dyed bright red.
While thinking wildly, I heard a lazy voice above my head: "Get up."
The matchmaker stood up as she said, and couldn't help looking up at Shen Mingjiao curiously, secretly surprised in her heart, this Concubine Su has a good appearance, and in their line of work, they have seen many beauties, but there are not many. One can compare to the face in front of me, except...
Thinking of something, the prostitute suddenly stopped her thoughts.
"Mother Feng, I invite you to come here today..."
Before the words fell, everyone held their breath.
But Shen Mingjiao continued: "This concubine wants to buy some servant girls."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out they were just buying maids.
Feng Yapo also heaved a sigh of relief, "I don't know what kind of maid the princess wants. It's not that the little woman is boasting. The maid who was trained by the little woman is absolutely smart and obedient..."
Grandma Feng began to introduce incessantly.
Shen Mingjiao interrupted her: "If you want to be able to do show work, you must be good at sewing."
Feng Yapo's voice stopped, and she turned to smile and said: "So the princess wants to buy an embroidered lady, but the price is as high as the needlework that the princess said... I don't know how many do you want?"
Grandma Feng is telling the truth, you must know that a real embroiderer with good craftsmanship is worth more than those beautiful maids.
Shen Mingjiao said casually: "Let's buy thirty for now!"
"What? Are you sure?" Mistress Feng thought she had heard wrong,
You must know that a good Xiuniang costs fifty taels, and thirty taels is 1,500 taels, which does not include other expenses such as monthly silver in the future. It costs at least two or three thousand taels a year to raise these embroiderers, Lala Zaza.
Shen Mingjiao nodded, "When you go back, bring the person you choose directly."
As for asking her to choose someone herself, I'm sorry, she can't do something with this spare time.
If you encounter dishonest ones, just sell them.
Feng Yapo finally came to her senses at this moment, and responded with a smile all over her face.
Leaving aside the rumors of heartfelt farewell, this prodigal concubine Su is true.
These people in the courtyard didn't think there was anything wrong with the behavior of their princess spending huge sums of money to buy the embroidered mother.
As long as they are not kicked out, what if the princess buys a few embroiderers? Besides, it was the prince's money. From their point of view, isn't a man's hard-earned money spent on his own daughter-in-law?
Shen Mingjiao then asked for a few rough women who would sweep and do rough work.
After the others left, Shen Mingjiao glanced at the two new Yipinju chefs, and told Eunuch Hua: "Eunuch will find some cooks who can cook home-cooked food and come back."
What does Grandpa Hua think of. Nod clearly. "It's the old slave who was negligent, and the old slave will go now."
It may be said that no one would believe it, but they have such a huge Yipin Prince's Mansion, yet they don't have a serious kitchen team.
In fact, when Jing and the emperor rewarded the palace at the beginning, all the maids and wives were all available.
It's just that Feng Lisheng entered the barracks early, and returned to the mansion after a few years when the border was completely secured. Maybe it was because he had stayed at the border for a long time and was not used to having maids to serve him. In addition, someone secretly ridiculed that Feng Wu and his group came to fight the autumn wind,
These words happened to be heard by Feng Lisheng, and in a fit of anger, he drove away all the servants of the palace, leaving only Eunuch Hua.
So, in such a huge palace, where all the big men are there, three meals a day becomes a problem,
Fortunately, several of them had worked as fire fighters before, so everyone took turns cooking.
As for the taste, they are all rough guys, as long as the food is not poisonous.
But now that the princess enters the mansion, she can no longer be the same as before.
Shen Mingjiao looked at everyone, and smiled kindly again: "Don't be nervous, you are still the same in the palace as before, what should you do?"
"Also..." Glancing at the rough clothes on everyone, he frowned in disgust.
"In the future, each person will be given four sets of clothes per season. Don't go to the tailor shop to buy them. It's ugly."
What?
Everyone was shocked again. Instead of driving them away, the princess even made clothes for them!
Someone asked cautiously: "What the princess said is true, she really won't drive us away!"
Shen Ming rolled his eyes at the person who spoke, "Nonsense, otherwise why would I invite so many bridesmaids!"
Everyone touched the rough needle corners on their bodies unconsciously, scratched their heads and smiled sarcastically, they were used to being rough, and there was no woman around them, so they usually went to the tailor shop to pick up two casually.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally Feng Wu took the lead and said: "The kindness of the concubine is appreciated by the brothers, but I just asked the embroiderer to make clothes for us, so there is no need..."
Shen Mingjiao stared: "Just make clothes for you, what a group of old men are so pretentious!
besides. Let me tell you, since you have taken over the work of repairing the garden, you have to do it for me. If I find out that someone cut corners, I will tell His Highness! "
She held her chin up, speaking her complaint with confidence.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and felt that the princess's attitude made them more at ease in their hearts.
So everyone straightened their backs and shouted in unison that the princess should rest assured that the task will be completed!
Haitang was a little speechless about this development for a while.
According to the anecdotes she had heard about house fighting, it was the first time that the mistress was in charge of the house, facing the servants of the house, even if it wasn't a house fight of all kinds, it should be a see-saw involving the interests of several parties.
The result...Look at the firm eyes in front of everyone, and the attitude of wishing to issue a military order to their girls.
In an instant, Haitang felt that what the girl said was right, their Su Palace is so different!
