She was not a rash and brainless person like Xie Jingqi, who took one step at a time to make sure that Lady Zeng would not fall for her trap, which was why she dared to come looking for Xie Jingxi so blatantly. It was just that she did not have a deep understanding of the Marquis Mansion, and was in a hurry to succeed, which was why she was in such a situation.
However, Aunt Fang had forgotten that she was just an aunt who had just entered the household. Her identity and position were all wrong, and even Lady Zeng was still in the limelight, why would these servants want to buy her? Marquis Mansion only requires her to be able to help Gu Heng spread his branches and leaves. Without this layer, even if you have ten grandaunts supporting you, you will only be the second Xie Jingqi, and might even be inferior to her.
She was not afraid of the Aunt Fang checking out the debts, was she? Could it be that Xie Jingxi was afraid of the Aunt Fang clearly showing her provocation, but your Grand Mistress would not let her do as she pleases? With Xie Jingxi here, it would not be easy to find out.
Therefore, the benefits offered by the Aunt Fang was not enough to move Li Zhangfang, because Li Zhangfang's foundation was not as shallow as she had imagined. But when Li Zhangfang came over to express his loyalty, Xie Jingxi had to give her face, so she acted as if he would make the decision on her behalf and sent her away.
However, things were not as easy as she thought. Not long after Li Zhangfang left, the storehouse manager, the Chen family came again, and Xie Jingxi had only just had a sip of tea when the Chen family's people ran into the room. They opened their mouths and started firing continuously.
Back then, when Aunt Fang went to our warehouse to prepare a birthday feast for our wife, she found out that all the tools were outdated, not worthy to be used for our wife's birthday. Those words said that we did not manage properly and did not look after the tools properly, and that it was to be re-established, what kind of logic was that, before she came, everyone used them well, and that the red coral potted pot was bought from the south side of the city at a high price last year, but after using it once, she did not notice anything, and did not know where she came from.
Xie Jingxi hurriedly said: ”Quickly sit down and rest for a while. It's such a hot day, let's talk slowly if you have anything to say.”
That Aunt Fang was originally not trying to bully her, she was probably just trying to make things difficult for Xie Jingxi. It was just that she did not expect to break the Chen family's bottom line, and the words she said immediately changed, Aunt Fang had suffered a loss due to it.
Don't be angry, I will tell mother about this matter. I have always watched your actions carefully, I will not complain about it, Aunt Fang is extremely filial and did not have any ill intentions, please do not take it to heart. ”
”Grand Mistress, you are a sincere person, and the stewards of our house have never seen anyone as compassionate as you, they truly respect you from the bottom of their hearts, so I have to remind you something, you have to be careful of this Aunt Fang, with Grandma Dagu supporting her, your face is big, you have to make up your mind to take over Marquis Mansion, and kick you off the stage!”
It seemed that the Chen family had pure intentions, Xie Jingxi could only send them off with good words, and then it became quiet for a moment, Ming Yu added a new ice cube, and fanned her with it to cool her down, ”Miss, why do you say that, you have not even warmed up your butt after just returning, there are too many words from them, and young lady, you are already sweating, do you want to wash this again?”
Xie Jingxi rubbed her swollen forehead, ”Forget it, I won't be bathing. I still have to go back to my mother's place.
When Xie Jingxi returned to the residence, she had to pay respects to the Lady Zeng, who was probably waiting for her to reveal herself. When Xie Jingxi returned, she had to pay respects to the Lady Zeng, who was probably waiting for her to reveal herself, even if she was unwilling.
Aunt Fang was indeed in Lady Zeng's room. Other than eating and sleeping, she went back to her own room and spent most of her time in front of Lady Zeng to pay attention to her. She even made Feng Jing stand aside as if she was an old empress dowager that was waiting on Lady Zeng.
When Xie Jingxi entered, the Aunt Fang came over to welcome him, ”It's Grand Mistress who has returned, madam is talking about you. She had told us to prepare the ice early in the morning, and used the ice cubes and fresh fruits on Young Mistress first, saying that it was easy for you to catch the heat while on the boat, it is very considerate of you.”
She was originally born pretty good, but after dressing up, she looked like that. With Xie Jingxi's familiarity, if one didn't know better, they would think of her as sister-in-law.
Moreover, you immediately gave her eye medicine, which meant that you, as her wife, didn't come over to greet your mother-in-law as soon as you arrived. This is too outrageous.
Xie Jingxi did not take care of her, and went over to pay respects to the Lady Zeng, ”I have to worry about mother, my wife is fine during the journey, it's just that after the summer, she'll be better after resting for a while, has Mother been well?
It seemed like the Aunt Fang did not waste her effort, and had served the Lady Zeng well. The Lady Zeng laughed, ”I'm fine, it's fortunate that the Aunt Fang comes here to talk to me all day, and served me well, my body is much better than it would be in the spring.”
”Madam, what are you saying? Isn't this my responsibility? Even if I am married, I have nothing to do, so if I don't serve you, who should I serve?”
