Chapter 132
Coming out of Zhengxian Pavilion, Xiao Yinxiu seemed to hold Song Guanzhou intimately, and said with a smile, "It seems that my sister-in-law is fine now. Why don't you help my sister-in-law? There are really too many things to do in the mansion, and I can't handle it alone."
Song Guanzhou put his arm around hers, as if they were best friends, and smiled, "I dare not disobey my sister-in-law's order."
At this point, Xiao Yinxiu sneered in his heart, I knew that your plan was to snatch the power of this mansion's finances from me, but you didn't even ask around. Do you think you can do it?
Just when he was about to say a few polite words, Song Guanzhou unreservedly pulled Xiao Yinxiu and touched the half-foot long wound on his arm in his wide sleeves, scaring Xiao Yinxiu so much that she almost screamed.
"Sister-in-law, please forgive me. I want to, but I can't. You see, these wounds will take several months to heal. They are so horrible. I have seven or eight of them on my body. Please have some pity on me, sister-in-law, and don't let me cause you any trouble."
Not robbing again?
Then why did you come to Zhengxian Pavilion to file a complaint so early in the morning?
Song Guanzhou did not let go of Xiao Yinxiu, and took her arm to the prince's room without haste. "I have told my father that my sister-in-law is in charge of the livelihood of the mansion alone, which is very hard. But I was born stupid and impulsive, and lazy, so I can only sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor. Please don't laugh at my incompetence, sister-in-law."
In his words, he affirmed Xiao Yinxiu's achievements, but also said that he didn't like managing the inner house at all.
Seeing that Xiao Yinxiu still didn't say anything, Song Guanzhou couldn't help but add a few more words, "But the mansion has a good reputation for hundreds of years, and with several generations of masters, there must be several generations of servants. It is deeply rooted, and it is inevitable that the bad habit of the servants bullying the masters has emerged. If sister-in-law doesn't rectify it now, I'm afraid that in the future, the masters in this mansion will not be masters, and the servants will become the king."
The last sentence is extremely serious.
Xiao Yinxiu had to look at the younger fourth daughter-in-law and couldn't help but murmur, "Can it be that serious?"
Song Guanzhou smiled gently, like a delicate flower blooming in spring.
"Take the Xiangguo incident for example. If I had seen it, I would have only guessed that a few old maids saw that the little girl had lost her master and was easy to bully. But if an outsider saw it, if the uncle and aunt of the Xiao family hadn't come over in a few days, they would have thought that the grudge between the masters and masters was still there, and would have blamed mother. How innocent is this? Mother is now cultivating herself and cultivating her character, so how could she have the mind to take care of a little girl who is still wet behind the ears? But now that things have come to this, others think that Aunt Fang passed away because of the old lady, and now the old lady can't tolerate the little girl left by her. Tsk tsk, sister-in-law, you might be implicated in it too..."
Good job, Song!
I finally understand. If you don't use our Xiao family as an excuse today, you won't say anything, right? !
"Sister-in-law, you are worrying too much. This matter must be a few maids taking advantage of their seniority to bully Xiangguo——"
"sister in law--!"
Song Guanzhou interrupted Xiao Yinxiu directly and said, "You are the mistress of a mansion. You haven't even interrogated a few old hags yet, but you are so sure. I'm afraid it's not appropriate."
Xiao Yinxiu: ...
Aunt Chu was nearby, and she gnashed her teeth in hatred, "Young Madam has misunderstood. It's just that there are many such things in the mansion. The Crown Prince's wife has always judged things based on experience. Those old men will definitely be tried, and they will naturally not let the matter go without any clear information."
"Experience? People are very different. Sister-in-law, don't be fooled by your subordinates. It's not too late to come to a conclusion after you have personally questioned and interrogated them."
Yo! Who do you think you are?
Xiao Yinxiu's face darkened, and she didn't have a good tone. She retorted to Song Guanzhou, "If Fourth Sister-in-law doesn't believe Sister-in-law, why don't you interrogate her about this matter?"
Song Guanzhou let go of Xiao Yinxiu, gently stroked the new hairpin he was wearing today, and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, why don't you tell me about the Jianshui House, the Peach Blossom Banquet, and Panxi and Panlan's betrayal? I'll investigate them all at once, how do you think?"
what!
Xiao Yinxiu looked straight at Song Guanzhou. At this moment, she suddenly realized that the calm and composed Song Guanzhou was no longer the useless lover who only followed the Fourth Brother around as she once thought.
"Father has already found out about the matter of Jianshui House. Are you still unwilling to accept it?"
Song Guanzhou smiled coldly, "No one has ever told me the truth. If sister-in-law is really kind enough to let me investigate further, I will definitely thank you. Speaking of this mansion, it is indeed not very clear. The Duke's Mansion has set up a private prison... If I have no evidence and go to the emperor to complain, I am afraid that the emperor will have to ask my father where this thing came from."
"What private prison? My sister-in-law had a nightmare. It's just a stone house in my third brother's yard."
Song Guanzhou laughed so hard that her body shook. She leaned close to Xiao Yinxiu's ear and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Second sister-in-law, I know who is innocent and who is not. Just because my father told me to shut up and Silang told me to forget, it doesn't mean that Second sister-in-law can fool me at will."
After saying that, he took a step away, ignoring the colorful expression on Xiao Yinxiu's face.
Then he stepped forward and pretended to be affectionate with Xiao Yinxiu, "I can't stand bullying and humiliation, and I can't stand seeing human life being treated lightly. I saved a few children at that time, and now seeing Xiangguo's face, I have a heart of compassion. This has caused a lot of trouble to my sister-in-law, but my sister-in-law comes from the wealthy Xiao family, I am afraid she is more kind-hearted than me, and I think she can forgive my impulsiveness."
Damn it!
All the good and bad things were said by you, a vixen.
"Fourth brother's wife, you just think that sister-in-law is weak and can be bullied, so you all come to bully her."
Song Guanzhou pretended to be intimate, leaned his combed hair bun on Xiao Yinxiu's shoulder, and said coquettishly, "Sister-in-law, this is the Duke's Mansion for you and my second brother, not mother's anymore."
what?
This is so bold.
Aunt Chu couldn't help but look over and met Xiao Yinxiu's eyes. The latter stopped suddenly. She was slightly taller than Song Guanzhou, and when she stopped, Song Guanzhou seemed to be growing on her body.
If you look at it this way, it seems that the two sisters-in-law have a very good relationship.
In fact, outsiders also saw it this way, "Hey! Guan Zhou, are you going to crush your second sister-in-law?" A beautiful and cheerful woman's voice came from the side. Everyone looked over and saluted, "Madam, the eldest young master."
Xiao Yinxiu was so angry that she pretended to be angry and said, "Sister-in-law, I've been waiting for you to come back. Come and pull this monkey off me."
Song Guanzhou still stood next to Xiao Yinxiu, smiling, "Sister-in-law, you are finally back." After saying it loudly, he whispered to Xiao Yinxiu, "Sister-in-law, the fragrance on your body smells so good."
After saying this, he actually took a deep sniff.
Xiao Yinxiu's whole body was limp, and she let the damn vixen leave. With the help of her maid, she bowed to Qi Yueniang.
"Guan Zhou, I heard that you were injured several times. Are you well now?"
Song Guanzhou shook his head, "Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law. The wound is quite deep and I am still recovering."
Looking to the side, she saw a thin and frail young man standing next to her. She smiled and greeted him, "Qin Ge'er, hello."
