Struggle of the Woman in the Red Chamber

There are many servants in the Rongguo Mansion, and correspondingly, there are also many stewards and housekeepers, and there are many overlapping rights in it. Whenever there is a conflict, the solution is very simple, that is to see who is more important. Whoever wins the master's heart, whoever has more power, will benefit from it.

But now, because of Mrs. Wang's illness, Grandma Zhu has suddenly emerged, and she, who is in charge of the family, naturally has someone she trusts more. In addition, Qin Tong originally wanted to muddy the dirty water in order to take advantage of the opportunity, so Over time, there were more and more incidents where the stewards rubbed against each other and the scale of the fights expanded each time. Finally, one day, several major stewards quarreled in front of Jia Mu, the supreme ruler of the Rongguo Mansion.

Jiamu's old face was ashen, and she was trembling with anger. Thinking of her grandson's daughter-in-law Zhu'er's family coming to her last night and crying, some housekeepers in the family really became more and more serious. Then I saw the dogs in charge biting the dogs in front of me and biting the hair all over the ground, and I was even more angry!Holding the crutch in his hand, he slammed the ground twice, and said in a deep voice, "That's enough, shut up!"

She has been in charge of this mansion for decades, and of course she is well aware of the situation, but what she never imagined is that the several big managers have become so arrogant that they refuse to accept the management of the master!She knew that the daughter-in-law of Zhu'er's family was a little younger, and she didn't have a man to support her. She seemed to be weak in managing such a large mansion, but they forgot that Zhu'er's family was also supported by her, and she refused to accept it. Zhu'er's family just doesn't accept her!What a daring one!No, she had to teach them a lesson severely, and of course, she had to stand up for Zhu'er's family!

Mother Jia glanced at the several stewards in the hall one by one with sharp eyes, and when she was done, she waved to the eldest granddaughter-in-law who was standing beside her, and said, "Come here, from Zhu'er's family. Since I entrust this house to you, I will let you take care of it." It's up to you to deal with it, I think it's a slave who bullied the master, my Rongguo mansion is small, and I can't accommodate such a big Buddha!"

Qin Tong stepped forward slowly, covered Jia Mufu, turned around again, and said in a cold voice: "I know, in front of you old people who have been around for many years, I am a novice with low qualifications, and in terms of ability and prestige, I am also a novice." It’s not as good as the old lady, if you refuse to obey me, I can understand, but don’t forget, you are slaves, and I am the master! The master ordered you to do things, and you not only didn’t do it, but also shirked each other’s responsibilities, and now you are bothering the old man. Ma'am, what's the matter, do you want to rebel? Or are you trying to control the master by relying on your seniority?"

Lai Da is the big housekeeper, and he is very decent on weekdays, so at this time, he also had the courage to speak first: "Grandma has wronged the servants, how dare the servants, dare not say anything else The loyalty of the servants to the Rongguo Mansion is truly a testament to the sun and the moon!" As soon as the words fell, the other stewards also echoed.

Qin Tong sneered, turned his head and said to Jia Mu who was standing above him: "Old lady, look quickly, our chief housekeeper is highly respected, and everyone regards him as the leader." This Lai Da never gave her orders. It's all a fool's errand, so he almost told her directly and clearly that she is not good enough to make him do things, and her arrogance and presumptuousness make her teeth itch with hatred!

Mother Jia didn't think much about it at first, but when she was attracted by the words of the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law, she immediately made up her mind. With his great talent, he, the big housekeeper, could completely suppress today's battle, but it happened in front of her. It can only show that today's incident was deliberately indulged by him, or it can be said that it was originally planned by him...

Jia Mu stared closely at the hall. Although Lai Da was kneeling, his upper body was upright and straight. Compared with the stewards behind him who were surrounded by stars and crouched on the ground, they looked even more Lai Da. The high status and high prestige can make the stewards forget who is their real master!I also thought about Lai Da being the son of a free man from the womb, what was there not to understand, this is a big heart to betray the Lord!Thinking of how much she favored the Lai family before, mother Jia felt an evil fire in her heart, how dare she hit her in the face like this!

Seeing Jiamu's gloomy face, Qin Tong didn't dare to say anything, but turned around and walked in, and when she came out, she took a few pieces of paper and handed them to Jiamu.These managers are all smooth and experienced people who have been around for a long time. If she, a half-baked person, is asked to come for trial, they may be able to get involved in the end. Therefore, she invited Xiao Yingchun, who has been literate for more than two years, to come to her two With the help of the maids Suyun and Yindie, they recorded their criminal evidence, which listed in black and white the mistakes of several stewards, as well as the mistakes revealed by each other before, which were said by themselves. Can't deny it either.

After reading these few pages, Mother Jia only felt that the anger in her heart was going straight up. These stewards were more or less promoted by her, especially Lai Da, who was trained by her personally. The confidant who came out is now "slapped" in the face by these ineffective things in front of the granddaughter-in-law. How does this make her teach the younger generation in the future?Thinking of this, Jia's mother became even more furious, and directly shouted: "Come on, take these bastards to the yard outside and beat them thirty times!" Directly kill them!It's just that she can't, she still has to save their dog lives to settle accounts with them slowly!

Qin Tong personally took the teacup from the little maid and handed it to Mother Jia, and then went around to Mother Jia's side and slowly calmed down for Mother Jia, saying in a warm voice: "Old lady, don't be angry with yourself. Because these few are not worth it, our Rongguo Mansion has a great career and many servants, these few are useless, just select a few more useful ones, there is no old lady anymore, your health is the most important thing! "

Mother Jia let out a sigh of relief. In fact, in this matter, she was not so much angry at them for doing wrong things and taking away the property of the Rongguo Mansion, but because her leader Wufang mistrusted the villain and let her go The grandson's daughter-in-law lost face in front of her and she was even angrier, so when she was persuaded by her eldest grandson's daughter-in-law, Jia's mother felt even more uncomfortable. In the future, how can she, the old Fengjun, be awed by the people below?

After making up her mind, Jia's mother said, "I'm fine. I don't care about such a small matter, the old woman. You go and send someone to find Lian'er. I have something to tell him!" Jia Mu thought about it, maybe it was her I haven't been out of the mountain for a long time, and people have forgotten her methods, so this time, she is going to be ruthless, and everyone below must know that even if she has a kind and gentle smile on her face, she is not fooled by them casually. , she is not old and confused yet.

Qin Tong said yes, but felt regretful in her heart, she still wanted to take the opportunity to promote someone from her own department, but now it seems that Jiamu will do it herself next... Qin Tong couldn't help but think in his heart "Bah", but before she kept saying that she had full power to deal with it, she changed her mind in a blink of an eye. The daughters-in-law of the Jia family, regardless of their age, are all people who are not willing to let go of power!

Although it was exchanged, the people Qin Tong could use were arranged by Jia Mu, but because there were ready-made examples in front of him, the orders issued by Qin Tong were also executed very well in a short while, and Grandma Zhu's prestige was also instantly elevated to a height that everyone looked up to through her "anti-corruption and honesty" ethos.

However, Qin Tong always felt that the problem of redundant staff in the Jia family was too serious, and there would be chaos if there were too few people, so Qin Tong came to talk to Jia's mother worriedly: "Old lady, have you heard that?" The eldest prince’s aunt was stabbed to death by a servant! It is said that it was revenge for the master who gouged out his daughter’s eyes, just because the wife was jealous and the master praised his daughter’s beautiful eyes! Oh, these bastards People are really terrible, it’s fine to play moths behind the master’s back, and dare to kill the master! It’s really lawless. Old lady, to tell you the truth, after I heard about it yesterday, I had a nightmare all night. You said, How can there be servants in this family who will not be punished by the master? As far as our family is concerned, it is already a rare and generous family, but a group of people were beaten not long ago, and there are two people who are weak and can't bear it. The board has gone, you said, if it all looks like this, there are so many young masters and girls in the mansion, especially Baoyu, who are still so young, they can't stand it." At the end, the voice was almost audible. Missing, Qin Tong did it on purpose, and was frightened by Jia's mother's gloomy face that seemed to be dripping water.

The secrets of the royal family are always arousing people's imagination, but because of the imperial prestige, everyone has no choice but to pay attention to the second and third matters of the royal relatives. The focus of gossip news circulating in the capital recently is that the emperor's eldest son's aunt is at home Assassinated by a servant, although the mother clan of the eldest son of the emperor solemnly declared that he was murdered by a vicious assassin, but the reason is unknown, anyway, everyone knows the real reason, that is, the eldest son's aunt was too jealous to provoke such a situation Woe!

The news that shocked the common people in the capital was naturally known by the well-informed Mother Jia, but before, she just thought that it was against women's morality for the mistress to be so jealous, and what's more, she was so stupid!Why bother to fight and kill like this, if you like it, you can take it in, it shows your magnanimity, and you want to please your lord, besides, it's just a lowly concubine who was born as a maid, what kind of climate can there be?If you really don't like it, when it's under your hands, why don't you rub it and squeeze it?But now, after being told by the eldest grandson's wife, Jia's mother suddenly felt that her whole body was going to be bad. How could she have more than two lives in her hands?

Not long after that, Mother Jia ordered that a group of people should be released from the mansion in order to pray for the girls and young masters in the mansion.But Qin Tong, who has been paying close attention to this matter, also noticed that there are some people who are not on the release list, but they are indeed not in the Rongguo Mansion...

Qin Tong was silent for a long time, and in the end he continued to follow the steps of the housekeeper and director, looking for a new home for the baby.With the improvement of her status, and because the meat in her belly grew older, the original small courtyard became more and more unable to accommodate people. Therefore, Qin Tong, who couldn't bear it anymore, applied to her superiors, and she wanted to find another new residence.

Qin Tong took a fancy to the Pear Fragrance Courtyard where Xue's family lived in the original book. There are more than a dozen houses and a single courtyard. Living alone, there is a corner door leading directly to the back street in the yard, which is not good. However, your yard is indeed small, and when the child falls to the ground, you will have to add nurses, mothers and maids, so there will be no place to live. My son, or you can move to the courtyard behind me. Although it is a little smaller than Lixiangyuan, there are three main halls, three west wing rooms, and a flower hall in front for you to entertain guests. A few more houses can come out, enough for you two to live in!"

Qin Tong... There is no man to bully a widow, right?Although not satisfactory, but, well, it is better than the current residence.
