After the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion was reborn, she divorced and married the prince!
Chapter 69 Let Song Mingli take the blame
Song Mingli suddenly felt much more relieved.
She lowered her head and laughed. Fate, it seems, has taken a different path.
In this life, Su Yi will never be able to "save Nan Xing's life" again, and will never be able to "repay a favor" again.
"Miss, I'm serious!" Nanxing thought that she didn't take it seriously.
Song Mingli nodded hurriedly and solemnly, "Yes, I understand. I will be careful with her."
Nanxing was satisfied.
But Song Mingli's eyes narrowed slightly. There was still a source of trouble that could not be left.
Nanxing's cousin is still alive and well, but he is always a threat to Nanxing.
She has to find her second brother...
No, second brother is too reckless. Let’s ask eldest brother for help this time!
Nanxing took Song Mingli's pulse and performed acupuncture and moxibustion.
Song Mingli felt that after Nanxing's efforts, her energy and physical strength were indeed better than before. He didn't know whether it was a psychological effect or the effect was really immediate.
"Tell Molan that we can arrange to teach everyone how to practice martial arts." Song Mingli told Zisu.
She got up and went to the table to write a letter to her eldest brother.
This time, she also used the Song family's unique secret letter method.
Su Yi didn't know yet that one of her "claws" had been chopped off by Song Mingli in advance.
Su Yi is studying how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure to make the Gu family run smoothly.
Hard work pays off. She soon discovered, "There are not many masters in the Marquis' Mansion, and the income is not much now. Is there no need to support so many servants?"
Especially the old lady, there are seven or eight maids doing the laundry alone, which is totally unnecessary! They are just eating for free!
But the first blow must not be made on the old lady.
Su Yi thought about it for another two days and finally came up with a good idea.
She called Gu Qingshan's servant over, "Give these lists to the steward of the outer courtyard and tell him that it is the young lady's intention that these people are no longer needed in the mansion. Ask them to come over to settle their monthly wages and find their own way out."
The servant was stunned. "Is this... what the young lady meant?"
"Yes, a few days ago, I was at Qichiyuan, and my cousin told me personally that the Marquis' Mansion must increase revenue and reduce expenditure." Su Yi said meticulously, "The Marquis' Mansion has too many servants, and we can't always keep so many idle people.
"It's not even a month yet, but the Marquisate has settled their monthly wages based on a full month, which is already a gesture of kindness and justice. Tell them to pack up and leave immediately, don't delay!
"If you delay for more than three days, you will not even have your monthly salary and will be expelled from the mansion."
The servant's eyes widened, "Is this also what the young lady meant?"
Su Yi smiled slightly, "Of course, if it weren't for my cousin's wife, how could I, a cousin, dare to make such a decision? Go and do it quickly."
The servant nodded hesitantly, took the list and went to the front yard.
"Three days? You want us to leave in three days? It will take time for us to find another employer, right?"
"This is just killing the donkey! We are so old now, and we have served the Marquisate all our lives! The Marquis said at the beginning that the Marquisate would provide for our old age!"
"Oh, now we are old and don't have the strength we had when we were young! Are you going to chase us away?"
"You call this benevolence and righteousness in the Marquis' Mansion?! Bah! That's not how people behave!"
"If the Marquis' Mansion chases us away, we will go around the capital and tell everyone that the Marquis' Mansion is unkind and unjust!"
Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes.
The Marquis' Mansion is going to destroy these people's jobs and leave them no way to survive, so naturally these people have nothing to worry about.
The servant saw that the group of people were angry and wanted to beat him up.
The servant said hurriedly, "This is what the young lady wanted. The marquis doesn't care about the family! If you want to make trouble, go find the young lady."
After discussing it together, the group selected a group of strong old women and headed to Qichiyuan.
"We can't enter the inner courtyard, but we'll be waiting for your news at the second gate!"
"If she doesn't explain this to us, we will..." Several people lowered their voices, "We will capture the young master here and force her to come see us!"
There were several old women, some were reckless while others were not brave enough.
"People are trying to destroy your job and let you starve to death! And you don't even dare to fight back! You deserve to be bullied to death!"
The timid woman became angry when she heard this. "Let's go! Why are you afraid of her? If we are driven out, we will starve to death! We might as well give it a try!"
A group of people came to the outside of Qichiyuan in a menacing manner.
Nanny Zhou was well-informed. She had already received the news when there was a commotion in the outer courtyard and the servant was about to be beaten.
She had already closed the gate and bolted it, and told Song Mingli what had happened, breathlessly.
Song Mingli's eyes sank slightly. Before she could say anything, there was already a commotion and noise outside Qichi Courtyard.
"When did the young lady drive them away?" Zi Su said angrily, "When the young lady came back this time, she didn't care about the affairs of the mansion at all!
"Why are they so confused? They just believe what others instigate?"
Nanny Zhou's face was filled with anxiety. "How can a servant from the outer courtyard care about so many things? They just believe everything they hear."
Zi Su heard the noise outside and the sound of people banging on the gate, and her heart began to tighten.
"I will go and tell them! Our young lady didn't care about this matter at all! Why are they making trouble with our young lady?"
Before Zi Su could leave the house, she was stopped by Nanny Zhou.
She looked at Nanny Zhou suspiciously.
Madam Zhou sighed and said, "I heard that those people outside are all women who do rough work in the outer courtyard. You can't reason with them!
"Besides, you can't win an argument with them! They dare to come here just to cause trouble! If things go wrong and they start fighting, you will definitely suffer!"
Shiso's face turned pale.
She was the young lady's maidservant and she had never done any rough work on weekdays. Judging from the voice, she was no match for those old women outside.
"What should I do? Should I ask someone to go find Molan?" Zi Su said in annoyance, "If I had known earlier, I should have started learning martial arts a few years ago. I shouldn't have been lazy and afraid of hardship!"
Song Mingli was amused by her words, "Do you think practicing martial arts is that easy? Besides, not everything can be solved by force, right?"
"What should we do now?" Zi Su said anxiously, "The Gu family is clearly deliberately trying to trick Miss! If they want to kick us out, just let them go! Why are they putting the blame on Miss? Why are they asking Miss to take the blame?"
Song Mingli smiled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? This pot is not ours, so we won't take it. Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem."
Zi Su and Nanny Zhou both looked at Song Mingli in surprise.
"Miss, do you have a solution?" Nanny Zhou asked excitedly.
Song Mingli tilted his head and thought for a moment, "How many people are there in our courtyard now?"
Madam Zhou immediately counted on her fingers and said, "Including those who sweep the floor and make fire, there are probably more than a dozen of them."
Song Mingli nodded, "We have more people, so we are not afraid."
Upon hearing this, Zi Su sighed, "We still want to fight?"
"Gather everyone in the yard and give everyone money," said Song Mingli.
"Ah? Give out money?" Madam Zhou was surprised. "Do we still have money to give out?"
Song Mingli smiled slightly, blinked his eyes and said, "In order not to default on everyone's monthly salary, I borrowed some money from my brother. Tell everyone to put down their work and wait in the yard."
Nanny Zhou went to gather people.
Shiso prepared the roster and account books.
When everyone was standing in the yard, Nanny Zhou cleared her throat and said, "Don't say anything, Miss has something to say!"
The people in the yard looked at each other.
The main thing was that the sounds of banging on the door and shouting outside made them panic.
The young lady is calling them together again now. I wonder what's the matter?
