C60 (1/2)
Wang Fu Clan's daughter-in-law was a rather simple and honest woman, she looked fat and simple, but in truth, her squinty eyes hid more than anyone else. When Xie Jingxi called her over, she had a blank face, and did not know where she had touched the head of this newly appointed Grand Mistress.
Xie Jingxi's attitude towards Marquis Mansion was extremely clear, which was that if others did not offend her, she would not offend them. As long as they did not provoke her, she could just close her eyes and let them go, but this did not mean that she could tolerate others trying to fool her.
Wang Fu family's main house was in charge of procurement, so she was naturally the most generous to create the position, she must have been doing the same before, but that was just what happened previously, Xie Jingxi did not care, but now, she had to speak of it.
”Grand Mistress, please call me.”
Wang Fu family's smiling face had their eyes narrowed into slits, looking kind and easy to talk to, Xie Jingxi also laughed, ”Mom, how hard have you been recently?”
Wang Fu family's disciple was stunned by her question, he did not know what she meant at the moment, ”Grand Mistress, what do you mean?”
Xie Jingxi just smiled and did not say anything, causing Wang Fu's heart to tremble. She laughed dryly, ”Hey, I thought you were Grand Mistress, what are you saying. Thank you for your concern, Grand Mistress.
”That's good.” Xie Jingxi drank some tea to refresh her spirit, ”I heard that mother loves to drink honey the most, I have a few jars of the best honey that I have brought with me, Ming Yu, go and bring some for mother.”
As she talked about the honey, Wang Fu's heart trembled, her body was covered in a layer of sweat. She hurriedly refused, ”How can I let Grand Mistress spend all his money, and not accept all the rewards for nothing. I have no reason to take your things for free.”
Mother is a cautious person, she has been in the house for quite some time, and when Father mentioned the manager lady s to me, he praised you, saying that you know your limits the most, and I had nothing else to call you here for, it's just a few words of advice. Since our family's population is not large, we have to be more meticulous in terms of food and clothing, and if there's anything in the houses that we want to eat, then don't be afraid of it, just buy it.
She loved to eat sweet foods, honey was expensive and expensive at the same time. Usually, she would secretly store a bottle of it when she received it, and it just so happened that she met a second young mistress who also liked to drink honey, no one would doubt that even if she bought more. But it just so happened that it happened to be gone today. She forgot to make up for it at the moment, but who would have thought that Second Young Master would come to Grand Mistress just because of this little matter.
As for the matter of lacking meat and vegetables, it was not only related to the Wang Fu family, but she could not escape from them either. Adding on to that the energy that Lady Zeng had lost over the past few years was not as strict as before, she extended her hand out towards the manor more and she became even bolder. She originally thought that Grand Mistress was young and had a tender face, that wouldn't last long and even thought of taking more money to marry her son off to the family.
”Grand Mistress is very perceptive, and is also considerate to our servants. I will definitely not let you down, and do my best in the future.”
This could also be considered to be the shrewdness of an old man. Although Xie Jingxi didn't point it out, she still pretended to be stupid and didn't say anything after a long time.
Xie Jingxi leisurely sipped his tea as she thought of the possibilities. She thought of all sorts of ways to put it, even what Xie Jingxi had said after she made it clear what she wanted to say, but she only waited for Ming Yu to bring the honey.
”Originally, there was nothing else. Mother Honey, take it back and make some tea. Please don't be polite with me.”
That's it? Wang Fu Clan s disciple, who was carrying the honey, walked out of the major wife Courtyard without reacting. The cold wind blew past her head, causing her to perspire profusely, from her feet to her hair. She carefully thought about what had happened today, and with a flash of inspiration, she immediately ran towards the kitchen.
”Is your manager lady here?”
Wang Fu's family held onto a little girl in the kitchen. Naturally, that little girl recognized her and politely said, ”Our mother just went out. I saw that she was in a hurry towards the courtyard of the Grand Mistress.”
