ma'am, calm down

Chapter 14 The old lady is not confused at all

After returning home, Shisan was completely reborn, from a newcomer to the wife of the eldest son of the Mu family. The eldest son's marriage leave came to an end temporarily, and Ye Peiqing finally began to go to court.

This morning Shisan came to greet the old lady as usual, and because Mrs. Chi was there, the old lady said: "Miss Sui's funeral has been settled?"

Mrs. Chi smiled and said, "I don't dare to bother the old lady about the funeral of a concubine. It was dealt with a few days ago, and I also gave Sui girl and his father 500 taels of silver."

The old lady said, "Did the Sui family make trouble?"

Mrs. Chi smiled and said: "What is the old lady talking about? Sui girl died in the middle of the night, and her own maid found out. The yamen came to see and said there was nothing suspicious, she really committed suicide by hanging herself. , but the reason is unclear, and we are still investigating. We gave his father another 500 taels of silver for retirement, so what can the Sui family do? Only Sui girl’s two-year-old son, it is not yet known who should be raised.”

The old lady pondered for a while: "I'll think about it."

"Yes. It's up to the old lady to decide."

The old lady said again: "Mei Yu has nothing to do at home. A few days ago, I asked you to give him some of the things at hand. I think it's better to let him manage the dispatch and vacancies of servants."

Madam Chi's face froze, and she said with a smile: "There are a lot of things involved in this one. I originally wanted to let him manage the flowers and gardens in the mansion, so I will do it smoothly."

Thirteen remained silent.Even if he has never begged for food from a big family, he can understand the difference between the two.

The management assignment of subordinates has great responsibilities and is the most lucrative.If there is a good vacancy in any courtyard, everyone will fight to get in, and those who give gifts and ask for help will probably smash his threshold.And if you want to know all the courtyards well, and secretly install your own people, this item is essential.The old lady wanted to give him this item because she wanted to flatter him, and she was afraid that she also wanted to make Mrs. Chi empty.

Management of the garden is a vacancy, and Mrs. Chi's real power is not released at all, which is a bit perfunctory.

The old lady smiled and said: "You have been housekeeper for so many years, why can't you see through it now? It's hard work, and it's not good for your health. I'm doing this for your own good. Let the young people try their hands and feet, so that things can be done in the future." Let them take care of it? Is it possible that you will not enjoy happiness in the future?"

Madam Chi felt cold.

She is a concubine, to put it bluntly, she has been calling the shots in Mu Guofu these years, if it weren't for the fact that she has real power in her hands, who would pay her any attention?Mu Guogong intends to promote her as his wife, but after so many years, nothing has been settled. Needless to say, he knows who is obstructing it.Now this old lady is going to gradually take her out of the picture again. She has no status and no real power. How can she survive in this mansion?What about my own son?Besides, if he is no longer the housekeeper, what reason does the Duke have to support her as his wife?

Although the old lady is old, she is not confused at all. It is really vicious to want to let her bamboo basket fetch water in vain.

But the fate of parents is too big, Madam Chi smiled quietly and said: "The old lady is right, I will make arrangements."

The old lady said again: "Lend the person under your command who is in charge of this matter to Mei Yu for a few days, so that he can take over the matter."

Mrs. Chi said: "I'll tell Steward Wu to find Mei Yu when I get back."

Thirteen bowed his head to drink tea, thinking that he wanted to practice kung fu, but he might not have time in the future.

These days he has been devoting himself to practicing kung fu, but his meridians are always blocked, which makes people anxious.If the meridians are blocked, you can't practice internal strength, and there are moves but no power. They can only be regarded as flamboyant fists.Martial arts has been with him for more than ten years, like his right hand and right arm, it is the only thing he can't let go of.

Feeling a little unhappy, when returning to the room, Ye Peiqing came down to court again.He remembered the gangster kissing him forcibly a few days ago, and he never wanted to talk to him.Ye Peiqing wanted to press him against the door for a kiss, but Shisan refused and even punched him. Ye Peiqing got angry and forcibly tore his clothes, hugged him for a while and kissed his chest deeply. The front bite was bruised and purple.After that, he let go of him and asked him what he did today while drinking tea.Shisan didn't like to talk at first, but he was agitated by a series of things, so he said, "What do I do, it doesn't matter to you? The Duke's family is powerful, so he has the ability to rape me."

Ye Peiqing felt uncomfortable being scolded by him, said "I don't know how to flatter you", resisted hitting him, turned around and left.

The two have not spoken since that day.

At this time, Ye Lin found Ji Wei, the adulterer in Madam Sui's case, and brought him back for interrogation by Ye Peiqing.This adulterer is less than 20 years old, and usually likes Fengyue the most, but he is not the son of a wealthy businessman, and his name is not Ji Wei, but Liu Ren.

It turns out that Liu Ren is just an idle ruffian, because he is good-looking, he is often liked by rich wives, and he has a secret relationship with him, and he is a good hand in the court of love.Half a year ago, because he lost his gambling money, he fled around to hide his debts, but he was targeted by a man who promised to help him pay off his debts, as long as he helped to do one thing.

Liu Ren thought he was asking him to kill and set fire, but he didn't dare to agree, but the man laughed at him as a worthless man, saying that he was just asking him to seduce a woman from a good family.Liu Ren thought that this was nothing, he would still do this without paying, so he agreed.The man gave Liu Ren a sum of money, asked him to buy clothes, dressed up as a rich boy, and waited in front of the nunnery every day.He originally thought he was trying to seduce an older wife, thinking that no matter how old he was, he would have to bite the bullet and complete the task, but he didn't expect that it was Mu Guogong's side wife, a woman as beautiful as a fairy, and he was overjoyed immediately.

He was just a dewy marriage to Mrs. Sui, and he didn't give any real affection at all. Instead, he coaxed Mrs. Sui with sweet words and cheated a lot of gold and silver treasures.The mysterious man found him again more than a month ago, said that he no longer had to associate with Mrs. Sui, gave him a sum of money, and told him to keep quiet.

Now that Liu Ren had made enough money, he disappeared without a sound, did not greet Mrs. Sui, and never appeared again.

He knew that this matter was of great importance, and if anyone found out that it was a matter of losing his head, he would keep his mouth shut and say nothing to anyone.He had a lot of contacts with some girls in the brothel, and during this time he was rich, and those girls coaxed him to play in the brothel.This Liu Ren sold himself to make money, and was coaxed out of the money by the girls in Hualou, so he was happy to be taken advantage of.

One night when he was drunk, a girl asked him where the money came from. When he didn't say anything at first, the girls said he had no guts, making people laugh.Then Liu Ren said: "You won't believe me when I tell you, I was very lucky a while ago." Then he told about his affair with Mu Guogong's side wife a few days ago.

All the girls didn't believe it, saying that he was dreaming, how could there be such a good thing in the world.Liu Ren refused to accept it, so he took out a string of emerald necklaces that he was carrying with him, saying that it was a gift from Mrs. Sui, and was immediately snapped up by everyone.

One of the girls snatched a small piece of emerald, put it away and played with it.She was on good terms with a catcher in the yamen, and once she saw her lover, she took this as a joke and showed the catcher the emerald.

Mrs. Sui of Mu Guofu had just died recently. When the police officer heard about this, he faintly felt that the matter was of great importance, but he didn't dare to speak out.Ye Lin and these people in the yamen are called brothers and have a good relationship. They often help each other with errands and drink together.The policeman mentioned this matter to Ye Lin in a very cryptic manner.Ye Lin was ordered by Ye Peiqing to track down Ji Wei, but he couldn't find any rich businessman named Ji in the capital who had such a number one person in his family, and he was in a hurry. When he heard about Liu Ren, he felt like he had found a treasure.

He immediately captured Liu Ren secretly, asked the old nun to identify his appearance, and finally confirmed the identity of this person.

Naturally, Ye Peiqing couldn't interrogate in person, so Ye Lin tricked Liu Ren into telling the truth.

In the case of Mrs. Sui, the mysterious person who instructed Liu Ren is the key.Ye Peiqing ordered Ye Lin to deal with the aftermath and continue to track down the mysterious person, so the matter came to an end for now.

After sending Liu Ren away, Ye Lin saw that Ye Peiqing's face was still a bit unsightly, so he carefully said: "Your Majesty, the third son of Wenhou's family has sent a message to invite you to play, or you can go to relax? "

In Ye Peiqing's mind, there was only the person who would hit him every now and then, and he didn't want to speak, and waved Ye Lin to back down.

How could Ye Lin give up so easily.In the past few days, the master has been unhappy, making everyone panic, afraid of being scolded for a trivial matter.The master is not happy, where can I be happy next?

He looked at Ye Peiqing's face and said: "If my son is bothered by the madam's matter, I can offer a few suggestions."

Ye Peiqing glanced at him.

Ye Lin said: "The little one has three strategies. The best strategy is to please the wife. The middle strategy is to make the wife jealous. The worst strategy is to force it."

Ye Peiqing thought that this strategy would suit his appetite the most, but if he didn't stop after a full meal, he might drive that person to death.Then he said with a cold face: "Let's talk about the best policy and the middle policy."
