Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House
Chapter 112 Bamboo Basket Draws Water 1 Game
Ma'am, here comes the lord.
Xie's expression was stunned for a moment, then she stood up and went out to greet him in person.
Master is here!
Mr. Xie greeted Mr. Gu at the door.
Master Gu's face was gloomy, as if a storm was brewing.
Xie Shi's heart thumped, and he felt uneasy.
Master Gu walked straight into the room and sat down in the main seat with a serious expression and no anger.
His eyes fell on Xie's face, making Xie's pressure doubled.
Xie shi lowered his head, not daring to face Master Gu's gaze.
How to do? How to explain Gu Zhen's matter so that the master will believe her?
Xie was very wronged. She was really innocent about Gu Zhen's matter. But will the master believe her?
She mustered up her courage and looked at Master Gu.
master!
Xie's voice was weak, obviously worried, uneasy, contradictory, struggling, and a little innocent.
Master Gu didn't even move his brows and eyes, Don't Madam plan to explain the matter of girl Zhen?
It's my fault.
Mrs Xie was simply, I didn't expect my mother-in-law's eldest sister-in-law to be so courageous that she would plot against girl Zhen under our noses. If I knew she had this intention, I would definitely not invite her. Even if I did, I would send someone to die. Watch her deadly. Never give her a chance.
Master Gu stared at Mrs Xie, That's all the lady wants to say?
Master Gu's tone was calm, but Shi Xie could hear anger from it.
Xie Shi no longer hesitated, and hurriedly said: Master, the concubine's neglect of management has made people take advantage of it. This is the concubine's fault, please punish the master.
But what my mother-in-law's sister-in-law and Xie Erlang did, I really didn't know beforehand. It was the girl who found out that something was wrong and reported it to me in time, and then I knew that something happened to girl Zhen.
At that time, I severely scolded my mother-in-law's sister-in-law and Xie Erlang. They want to take the opportunity to marry girl Jane, I told them to get out, there is no door.
Lord, what the concubine said is true,
Not a single false statement. Lord, please believe me.
Master Gu sternly said, Is this the explanation you gave me?
Xie's heart was flustered, Master, concubine really didn't lie to you. Concubine really didn't know about this in advance.
Master Gu sneered again and again, It is true that you may not know about it in advance. But your mother-in-law's eldest sister, and your eldest brother, what kind of people are they, can you not know?
How did I tell you in the past that you should stay away from them. Since returning to the capital, you have been in contact with them again and again.
What happened to girl Zhen today was not an accident at all, it was a deliberate calculation.
Your elder brother Xie Mao is really deceiving people too much. He rides on the head of the official again and again to be wild. Is it really impossible for the official to take him?
Since he dared to come to the shadow of the official's mansion, he calculated the daughter of the official. Then he shouldn't blame the official's six relatives for not recognizing him, and want him to look good.
Master Gu was furious, if not for a trace of reason, he would have killed the Xie family long ago.
Xie Shi was frightened and said, Master, there may be some misunderstanding in this matter. Big brother is not the kind of person with shallow eyelids. Even if you really want to calculate, you can't keep your eyes on the concubine Zhen girl. This matter is more like my mother-in-law's sister-in-law. And what Xie Erlang has done. I also ask the master to investigate this matter.
Master Gu snorted coldly and smiled mockingly, What if it wasn't your eldest brother? Who asked him to marry Ma Shi and give birth to Xie Ding.
One of these two is his original wife, and the other is his own son. Everything they do will be counted on his head.
Master, I really want to tear my face off with big brother. What about girl Zhen? How will you let her live the rest of her life? Can she still live well?
Xie cried.
While crying, she continued: It's not that the concubine deliberately stopped the master, it is really forced by the situation.
When the accident happened to girl Zhen, the sixth girl of Haixi Bo's house was nearby at the time, and the whole process could be seen clearly.
This would only be the case that the Haixi Bo Mansion already knew the news of the girl's accident. Nine times out of ten, girl Jane's marriage will fail.
Master Gu stared at Xie stubbornly, What do you want to say?
Xie shi said cautiously: Now there are only three ways for girl Zhen to go. One is to delay another two years. After everyone has forgotten about this, I will give her a kiss. Just in this way, girl Zhen's youth will end. Being delayed, I am afraid that there will be no good people to say at that time.
Secondly, it is to marry girl Zhen far away, far away. However, the concubine is reluctant. The girl's family is far away, and there is no maiden's family by her side, but if something goes wrong, there is no one to support her. If the husband's family is kind, life can go on. In case of encountering that kind-hearted and evil-hearted family, girl Zhen would be a sheep into the tiger's mouth.
The last solution is to let girl Zhen marry Xie Ding. The Xie family is at a loss, and there is another master who supports the girl Zhen. Xie Ding and the Xie family will definitely not dare to wrong the girl Zhen. The only worry is that girl Jane might not be willing.
Master Gu snorted coldly, Do you want girl Zhen to marry Xie Ding?
It's not what the concubine thinks, but this is the best way to deal with it. Isn't that what the master thinks too?
Master Gu suddenly laughed, but there was a biting chill in his eyes, Miss Xie, you have to understand that Xie Mao has calculated on this official several times, and it is impossible for this official to be his children's relatives. You must keep this in mind for this official. .
Please also tell Xie Mao what this official means. If you dare to attack the children of this official, I will not mind protecting the media for the Xie family girl.
Master Gu's words were stern, and Xie's whole body trembled.
What about girl Jane?
Wait until there is news from Haixi Bo Mansion about the marriage of girl Zhen.
If Haixi Bo's house didn't take a fancy to Girl Zhen, according to the master's intention, wouldn't it delay the life of Girl Zhen?
Master Gu said with a straight face, This official's daughter, I would rather let her be an old girl than let her marry into the Xie family.
Xie wanted to cry but had no tears, Does the master hate big brother so much?
His wife and children dared to make trouble in this official's mansion. This official did not slaughter the mother and son, which is considered polite. From now on, the Xie family is not allowed to visit the house. My family's children are also not allowed to go to Xie's house. As a guest. As for you, it's up to you.
Xie Shi burst into tears.
She knew it would be like this.
The situation she was most worried about finally happened.
At this moment, Shi Xie hated Ma Shi and Xie Erlang in his heart. The thing that suffered thousands of knives made her so miserable.
Xie shi cried and said, Master, the concubine is really innocent.
Master Gu nodded, I know it's not your fault. But who made Xie Mao your eldest brother?
Xie's eyes were hazy with tears, Master, can't you and eldest brother reconcile? The eldest brother is loyal to His Royal Highness, and if His Royal Highness becomes emperor in the future, the lord will also get great benefits.
Master Gu smiled contemptuously, When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually ascends the throne, it will not be too late for you to say this again.
Xie Shi was stunned.
Master Gu frowned, Today's banquet is attended by the noble family, Madam didn't understand?
Xie was at a loss, what did he understand?
Isn't today's banquet to celebrate the promotion of the master?
Master Gu laughed at himself, Gao Sheng? Madam really thinks that from the governor of Jinzhou to the governor of the capital is Gao Sheng?
Xie's mouth was stunned, she didn't understand official affairs.
After all, she has read few books and is good at internal calculations, but she lacks the big picture.
To describe things in the officialdom in one sentence, she is a woman, so how can she understand these things. These are the things that men worry about.
She is a woman, a husband and a son, and it is enough to take care of the inner house.
Her ability was enough when Master Gu was serving as a local official.
But now in the capital, with a completely different political environment, Xie's knowledge was far from enough.
Master Gu looked at Xie Shi, his eyes gradually became disappointed.
Sure enough, he couldn't expect too much from Xie.
In the past, Master Gu felt that Xie Shi was gentle and petty, flattering, and serving others. He was extremely satisfied.
Comparing the Xie family with the deceased Su family, Master Gu always felt that the Xie family was better than the Su family.
But back in the capital, in just a month or so, reality hit Master Gu in the face.
As his wife, Mrs. Xie can be said to be completely unqualified.
Master Gu sighed, when I was young, I was frivolous and greedy for beauty, and I didn't understand the truth of marrying a wife and a virtuous man.
I always think that girls from big families are more than dignified, but they are too boring. It was too far from the beautiful wife he imagined.
After he straightened Mr. Xie, Mrs. Xie satisfied all Master Gu's imagination about a good wife.
In those few years, the relationship between the couple was really a mixture of honey and oil.
But people can't stay in their teenage years forever, and people's ideas also change with age.
As a middle-aged adult, Mr. Gu has become more and more practical without the passionate ideals of teenagers.
Living in the big dye vat in the capital, there is always a feeling of powerlessness.
In the yamen, every time you do something, you will encounter various obstacles.
Nominally he was the parental official of the capital.
In fact, there are at least thirty or fifty mothers-in-law on him.
Every mother-in-law came to find fault with him.
In the short time since Mr. Gu took office as the governor of the capital, he has already suffered a lot of splint.
At this time, he urgently needs to open up the personal connections in the capital.
This banquet, nominally to celebrate his ascension, was actually to manage contacts.
Among them, Hou Mansion made great efforts.
The Hou residence created an opportunity for Mr. Gu to manage personal connections. As his wife, Mrs. Xie naturally had to fulfill her responsibilities as a good wife.
However, seeing Xie's face still blank, Master Gu said that he was not disappointed.
Mr. Xie was his successor who defied all opinions and personally straightened up.
How satisfied he was with Xie in the past, how disappointed he is now.
Master Gu laughed at himself. I regret that when I was young and frivolous, I abandoned the principles handed down from my ancestors. Now I have suffered the loss of not listening to the old man.
If he had listened to everyone's opinions and married a successor of the right family, he wouldn't have dared to say anything else, at least he would have been better than Xie's in terms of managing connections in the capital.
Master Gu waved his hand, That's it.
He was tired, and he was too lazy to continue to talk to Xie.
Xie shi pulled on the sleeve of Master Gu, Master, concubine...
Xie shi looked at Master Gu eagerly, clearly hoping that he could stay in the Furong Courtyard at night.
Master Gu took Xie's hand away and said with a blank expression: This official is tired today, so you should rest early. I hope you really listen to what this official said.
Mr. Xie watched helplessly as Master Gu left, sobbing silently.
Chun He walked in from the outside, Madam, the master has already left, don't cry, you'll hurt your eyes.
After listening to Chun He's persuasion, Mrs Xie gradually stopped her tears.
She gritted her teeth, Xie Ding and Ma Shi have made me so miserable, this matter can't be left like this.
What is your wife going to do?
Xie snorted coldly, Wait for the news from Haixi Bo's mansion. You go to the Hou mansion tomorrow, and tell the eldest lady that the master has agreed to the marriage between Zhenyatou and Han Shilang.
As long as the Haixi Bo Mansion nodded, in time for the Chinese New Year, pick an auspicious day to settle the marriage between the two.
With a surprised look on his face, Chun He asked in a low voice, Madam, if something happened to the eldest girl, can you still marry into the Haixi Bo Mansion?
Xie said, It doesn't matter whether you can marry into the Haixi Bo mansion or not. What matters is that we have to show our attitude. In short, you should do as I tell you.
Chun He nodded, The servant knows. In addition, the accountant has sent the account book for the expenses of the banquet. Does the wife want to look at it?
Xie Shi waved his hand, I'm tired, tell me directly how much money you spent.
Chun He opened the ledger and said, One payment, plus the rewards for the maids and ladies, totals 1,800 taels. Among them, 300 taels will be borne by Gongzhong. The rest is 1,500 taels. It will be borne by our second room.
what?
When Xie Shi heard this number, he almost jumped up.
How did the accountant settle the account, and why did it cost so much money? Have you checked it? Is the account correct?
Chun He lowered his head, a little embarrassed, The account book handed over by the accountant, the servants can't read it, and can't check it. Besides, all the documents are still there.
Mrs Xie gritted her teeth, It must be the big house who is trying to figure out our second house. Mrs Zhang, a greedy old woman, doesn't matter if she holds the power of the housekeeper, she even wants to greedy for the banquet, so she is so beautiful.
It's late tonight, and tomorrow morning, you bring the account book with me to the council hall. I want to ask Mrs. Zhang face to face, does she want face?
Do you want to look at the ledger first and look for loopholes? If you meet the eldest wife in the morning, you can also know what to do.
Chunhe suggested in a low voice.
Mr. Xie nodded, what Chunhe said made sense.
She took the ledger from Chun He, opened it and frowned.
How the accountant does the accounting is in a mess, and I can't understand it.
What happened to this ledger?
Chun He whispered: The servants asked the accountant, and they said that this is the bookkeeping method learned from the Hou's residence. This is the bookkeeping method used by the big families in the capital. Madam, do you want to find a professional accountant? Check the account.
Where can I find a professional accountant to check the accounts at this time? This is the account book in the house, and I can't show it to the outside accountant.
What the wife said is. If you don't know, call the senior management. The slave remembers that the senior management has also recorded accounts before.
Xie shi frowned, I'm afraid Gao Sanfu can't do it alone. I still have to ask Master Ma next to the master for help.
Master Ma is the master of money and grain, and accounting is his best job.
This time back to Beijing, Master Ma's family also came to the capital, and they lived in a small courtyard in the back alley of Gu Mansion.
Master Liu did not follow him to the capital.
Today, the official affairs around Master Gu are mainly handled by Master Ma and Gu Yu.
Chun He said, In the early morning of tomorrow, the slaves will find someone to invite Master Ma into the mansion.
Mr. Xie snorted coldly, I want to see if Mr. Zhang has anything to say then.
The night was long and many people didn't fall asleep.
Gu Yue tossed and turned all the time, feeling up and down.
She called out, and the girl came in from the outside and asked, What's wrong with the girl?
Gu Yue sat up from the bed, Is Big Sister still crying?
Grape shook his head, The eldest girl has been crying for a day, and her voice is hoarse. The slave did not hear the eldest girl's cry, and I think she has stopped for this meeting.
Gu Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Eldest sister has been crying for a day, I can hear her movements here, and she's almost to death.
Grape wants to say, the big girl cried for a day, it's not because of you, the girl. But she didn't dare, she could only think about it secretly in her heart.
Gu Yue frowned and looked irritable.
This time, she doesn't like anything.
Grape persuaded: Girl, you should rest early. You will have to greet your wife in the morning tomorrow.
I know, I'm so irritable that I can't sleep.
She looked in the direction of Furong Courtyard, Grape, did you say that mother and father have discussed the marriage of eldest sister?
Grape hesitated for a while before saying, My servant heard that the master stayed in the Furong Court for less than half an hour before leaving.
Gu Yue was at a loss, Really?
Grapes nodded.
Why didn't you tell me about such an important matter? Gu Yue was angry.
Grape said aggrievedly: The girl was already lying on the bed at that time, and the slave did not dare to disturb the girl.
Gu Yue snorted coldly, Do you know what Master looked like when he left the Furong Courtyard? What's going on at the Furong Courtyard?
The slave does not know.
I don't know if I ask three questions, what's the use of you?
