Chapter 53 Look at your cousin
Sister Xie Liuhui shook Xie Zou's arm, "Mother, look at your cousin. She wants to take back the things that our aunt gave us. This is too much."
Xie Zou was annoyed by the quarrel between the two, and she hated them for not being able to reason with Xie Liuzheng. She shook them off and stared at Xie Liuzheng, "What do you want?"
Mrs. Xie Zou finally realized that Xie Liuzheng didn't take her, her elder, seriously at all. She would not gain any benefit by using her elder status to pressure her.
This question touched the point. Xie Liuzheng smiled and was not afraid to speak frankly with her.
"My meaning is very clear. First, please go back and tell Third Uncle that he won't have to worry about my family's affairs anymore. He likes to put on airs. There are so many people in the clan, so you can find anyone, but don't find us mother and daughter."
"If he gets tired of being the clan leader, the fourth uncle and the sixth uncle are both free and will not refuse to take over his position."
Mrs. Xie Zou opened her mouth to say something, but Xie Liuzheng raised her hand to signal her to shut up. "Secondly, the two cousins are not young anymore, and it's time for them to get married. Your aunt should take some time to teach them needlework, cooking and other things. If they go to live in someone else's house for no reason, the host family will not say anything, and your aunt will be worried, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of Xie Zou, her mother and her two daughters all turned purple.
Xie Liuzheng hadn't finished yet, "Third, when the two cousins get married, my mother and I will go to the mansion to add dowry, but we dare not exceed the amount of your mother, otherwise others will laugh at my mother and me for not knowing when to advance and when to retreat, and will also laugh at you for loving your daughters less than an aunt. Don't you agree?"
Mrs. Xie Zou understood that Xie Liuzheng wanted to draw a clear line with her family and would not give her any more benefits except for normal family relations. She was so distressed that she almost couldn't hold it.
He secretly hated himself for forgetting to check the almanac before going out today, and provoked Xie Liuzheng for no reason. You know, Xie Xiangyu would give him a few hundred taels every year, which was enough for their family's daily food and clothing.
Now she regretted and wanted to make amends, but Xie Liuzheng didn't even give her a chance to speak and ordered the servants to invite the mother and daughter out directly.
On the way back, Xie Liuhui was still angry and muttered a curse to Xie Liuzheng that she would not have a good death. After Xie Zou scolded her impatiently for a few times, she dared not say anything more.
Xie Zou leaned against the car board, Xie Liuzheng's sinister and complacent face kept appearing in her mind, and suddenly she thought of what Xie Liuhui had just said.
"Xie Liuzheng has no respect for his elders, and is not afraid of being struck by lightning and dying a horrible death." He couldn't help but think, if Xie Liuzheng died, wouldn't all the money earned by Xie Xiangyu fall into his hands?
Xie Liuzheng sent the mother and daughter of the Xie family away, then turned around and looked at Qiuyue's little face carefully. The slap mark was still there, and not only did it not disappear, but it became more obviously swollen.
"Chun Lian, go pack some ice cubes to apply on Qiu Yue's face."
Several of the maids in Xie Liuzheng's room were old and had been sent out to get married, and Chunlian was the new replacement.
After hearing Xie Liuzheng's instructions, he hurried to find ice.
Xie Liuzheng looked at her back and shook his head slightly. This girl was really honest and would not move unless told. He hoped that she was just new and not familiar with the place. She would be more active after a few days of getting familiar with the place. Otherwise, there was no point in keeping her around.
I couldn’t help but think of my past life.
When she married Qin Shou, Xie Xiangyu specially picked eight maids with outstanding looks and clever hands as her dowry.
But neither she nor Xie Xiangyu had expected that Qin Shou was a wolf, and his true colors were revealed not long after they got married.
After the eight maids were harmed by him and Qin Guangjin, two of them could not bear the humiliation and jumped into a well and died. The rest were given away by Qin Shou or used as private concubines, and none of them had a good ending.
Qiuyue saw Xie Liuzheng lost in thought and asked in a low voice, "What are you thinking about, Miss? I'm fine. It will go away in two days."
Xie Liuzheng came back to his senses and patted Qiuyue's hand, "I remember there was a second-class maid in the Madam's room, I think her name was Shanhu. You all thought she was cunning and didn't want to associate with her. Do you know where she went later?"
"I didn't pay attention. She must have reached the age and was sent back by the Madam to get married." Qiuyue looked confused. "Why did the eldest lady suddenly ask about her?"
"Nothing, I just suddenly remembered to ask." Xie Liuzheng sat down at the table and picked up a pen, and told Qiuyue, "When the wound on your face heals, ask someone about Shanhu's whereabouts."
"Yes." Qiuyue responded and retreated, wondering why Xie Liuzheng suddenly asked about this person.
Xie Liuzheng originally wanted to learn how to design jewelry patterns, and she held the pen in her hand and never put it down. All kinds of things from her past life kept appearing in her mind, and she couldn't calm down.
Finally, he sighed helplessly and threw the pen into the pen wash.
In her previous life, whether it was her or Xie Xiangyu, the most important thing they valued when hiring people was their character. Especially the maids in the mansion, all of them were well-behaved and obedient like pure and innocent little white rabbits.
It would be no problem if everything went smoothly all the time, but when encountering problems that were difficult to solve, none of these maids could help.
In this life, Xie Liuzheng vowed to take revenge on Xie Shou and his son. It would be inappropriate to use only such a person, so he thought of Shanhu.
She didn't have a deep impression of Shanhu. She only remembered that the other maids said behind her back that she was sweet-mouthed but cruel at heart and only thought about herself when things happened.
Being sweet-mouthed means that one is good at observing people's expressions and communicating with them. Being cruel-hearted means that one is decisive and does not get involved in useless interpersonal relationships.
As for those who only care about themselves when encountering problems, it is rare to be able to protect themselves in difficult situations. Only by protecting yourself can you protect others.
Qiuyue had a wound on her face, so it was inconvenient for Xie Liuzheng to take her with him when he went out, so he took Chunlian with him and took the opportunity to observe her.
Chun Lian is always quiet. She always completes the tasks she is told to do as quickly as possible. If she is not told to do so, she will just sit there and do nothing. It seems that she is not smart at all.
After a few days, Xie Liuzheng had basically given up on the idea of training her to be his assistant, and it was okay for her to stay at home and do needlework and watch over the Shield Gate.
Seeing that there were only three days left until the Qiqiao Festival, Xie Liuzheng no longer had time to think about the maid and focused on cooperating with Xie Xiangyu.
Unexpectedly, something happened.
Xie Xiangyu personally brought several of the silk factory's best craftsmen to work tirelessly for more than a month to prepare the material, but someone cut a big hole in it.
When Xie Liuzheng heard the news, he immediately asked someone to prepare a car and rush to the silk factory.
Xie Xiangyu's face was livid as she was tracking down the evildoer. When she saw Xie Liuzheng's expression eased a little, she took her into the side room.
"Mother, I remember that the materials were always locked in your private warehouse, and there were people guarding outside. How could someone have taken advantage of it?"
This was what made Xie Xiangyu most angry. She had taken every possible precaution, but still failed to save the material.
If she finds out who did it, she will definitely skin the thief alive!
Seeing that she was shaking with anger, Xie Liuzheng hurried forward, held her hand and spoke to her in a gentle and comforting voice.
