Catching an adulterer at the beginning, the mistress of the Marquisate went crazy

The remaining old men in the Marquis' Mansion are smarter than monkeys.

Even though Liu Tianshu is the mistress of the house, it is not an easy task for her to arrange her own staff in the Marquis' Mansion.

At the same time, those people she arranged to take positions in a hurry may not necessarily be able to suppress the people below them.

The banquet at the Marquis' Mansion was approaching, and the only thing she could do now was to check for any mistakes or omissions frequently, and then use the name of the Marquis family to pressure those people.

Of course, she wouldn't really take control of everything. She would always leave some room for mistakes. Otherwise, how would she find an opportunity to replace people in the future?

Liu Tianshu walked and looked along the way, pointed out many mistakes and omissions, and immediately asked someone to come and fix them.

Those people took the money but didn't do anything. When they were called, they were all terrified. However, Liu Tianshu treated them gently and didn't do anything to them.

Each of the stewards thought they had gotten away with it easily, and in order to prevent the Hou family from sending the few remaining confidants of them who were still in the mansion to do business for her outside the mansion, they all worked hard to make up for their previous mistakes.

What Liu Tianshu wants is for everyone to get busy. As for how long these people can be obedient and to what extent they can accomplish things, she is not too demanding.

Anyway, she would only lose a little reputation. Her main goal was to kick out all the Hou family members.

The purpose of Hou's hosting the banquet was to find suitable marriage partners for her son and the illegitimate sons and daughters in the Hou Mansion.

While Liu Tianshu was tidying up the entire Marquis' Mansion, the Hou family had someone investigate all the young men and women of marriageable age in the residences of officials of all ranks in the capital.

Invitations were sent to all the young ladies and young men of officials above the fourth rank in the court.

Hou had done the same thing in her previous life. Liu Tianshu was not surprised at all. She was just worried about the way Hou looked at people.

In her previous life, the two daughters-in-law she chose and Gu Jinqing's in-laws, although all of them came from high-class families, were more capable than the other, and in the end, both families lived in misery.

In comparison, the marriages of illegitimate sons and daughters were all to families of low status, and with the support of the Marquisate, they lived a stable life.

As the eldest sister-in-law of those three people, Liu Tianshu really didn't want to see her two sisters-in-law and brother-in-law from her previous life again.

By the way, Gu Jinqing is going to marry into the Chang family in this life, so he really won’t have to face that family anymore.

When she thought about having to face her two sister-in-laws from her previous life in the future, Liu Tianshu sighed softly.

It's not that she, as the eldest sister-in-law, looks down on them, it's just that they themselves can't lift themselves up.

Forget it. Anyway, the daughter-in-law that Hou wants to choose must first be beautiful and secondly, come from a higher family background than the Marquis’s mansion.

There are not many families in the capital with a higher status than the Marquis' Mansion. The Hou family has very few choices, so she decided not to do something that would be disliked by others.

Liu Tianshu didn't want to care what the Hou family did, nor did she care about her half-born brothers and sisters. She lived a comfortable life.

In comparison, Liu Tian'ai's life was not easy.

Not only because the room was stuffy, but also because Gu Jinyun had never come to his yard since she left on the day of her miscarriage.

Liu Tian'ai was unwilling to accept the fact that she had planned so much but got nothing, but she had to stay in the room because she had to recuperate after giving birth.

It was so hot in the room that she lay on the bed wearing only her underwear.

Everyone in the mansion knew that she was in confinement after giving birth, and no one came to disturb her rare peace and quiet.

The days were quiet, and she even spent most of the time alone in her room.

When a person is alone for a long time, it is easy for him to have wild thoughts, especially when Gu Jinyun has not come to see her for a long time, his heart becomes even more twisted.

In order to prevent herself from getting sick from being bored, Liu Tian'ai asked Biyu and Bihe to find a lot of storybooks for her.

Most of the storybooks these days are about love. The more she read, the more she envied the male and female protagonists in the storybooks. When she thought of herself, she felt extremely miserable.

She had no place to vent her resentment, and she was not feeling well and could not get any fresh air, so Liu Tian'ai ordered Biyu and Bihe to find out Gu Jinyun's whereabouts.

Liuyuan is not far from Fuguangyuan. Biyu and Bihe naturally know that Gu Jinyun has been staying in the yard playing with Taoer, Haitang and Qiangwei these days.

At the same time, they also heard that Haitang and Qiangwei were already the Marquis's women, and they would just wait until the mourning period was over and find a good day, and then they would become concubines in the mansion.

Biyu and Bihe had been trying hard to keep this news a secret. Seeing that Liu Tian'ai was immersed in the storybook, they thought they would not know the news until she finished her confinement and walked out of Liu Garden.

After hearing Liu Tian'er's question, the two of them hesitated and looked at each other but no one dared to speak.

Liu Tian'ai is not stupid. From the reactions of the two people, she can tell that Gu Jinyun must be living a good life these days, and there are other women around him.

Liu Tian'ai was depressed by this realization and broke several sets of teacups in the room.

Looking at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, Biyu said distressedly: "Auntie, according to the rules of the mansion, the tea sets in your yard can only be replaced every three months.

In just the past half month, you have broken four sets, and now this set is incomplete. If this continues, the tea sets we brought with us will not be enough."

"If the Marquis' Mansion doesn't give it to me, I can buy it myself. We don't need that little bit of money."

After saying that, Liu Tian'ai walked to her dressing table, opened the cabinet underneath, and took out five ten-liang silver ingots.

"Take all this silver and buy me some teacups. I want to smash them every day to hear the sound."

Looking at the fifty taels of silver on the table, Biyu and Bihe looked at each other, but no one stepped forward to take it.

"You dare to disobey my orders?"

"Auntie, that's not what I meant. I just wanted to ask if you want to buy a cheaper one or a more expensive one..."

"What do you say?"

Liu Tian'ai raised her eyebrows and sneered at the two people in front of her.

"Auntie, I think we should share the purchase."

Seeing that Liu Tianyi was about to get angry, Biyu said cautiously: "I will buy you a few sets of beautiful tea sets, and the rest will be ordinary teacups and teapots..."

"boom……"

Before Biyu could finish her words, another teacup fell heavily at her feet and shattered into pieces.

"I, your aunt, am not so poor that I can't even afford to break a few teacups. Do you look down on me or the Marquis' Mansion by buying those crudely made ordinary teacups?"

"It's my fault..."

Biyu knelt down subconsciously, but when her knees touched the ground, she accidentally fell on the broken porcelain pieces, and blood instantly dyed her dress red.

"what……"

Biyu screamed and fell to the ground, her hands accidentally pressed on the broken porcelain pieces, and blood gushed out of her hands and legs in an instant.

There were only these two useful people around Liu Tian'ai. When they saw Biyu getting injured, not only did they not show any sympathy, but they curled their lips in displeasure.

"You are such a useless thing. You can hurt yourself just like this..."
