Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

The kitchen manager asked Gu Jiu to complain.

"Madam, there are so many things in the kitchen, and once the staff is abolished, it will be even more busy. Please also ask the wife to take back and die."

Gu Jiu looked at Mrs. Zhu, "The abolition of manpower is a matter set by the prince and the princess, and there is no way to change it. If you are dissatisfied, go and talk to the princess."

Mrs. Zhu is slanderous, if the slave and maidservant can directly talk to the princess, why bother to see you.

She tried to say: "There are so many things in the kitchen every day, from morning to night, the two girls Qingzhu and Xiaocui have seen with their own eyes, and the slave and maidservant absolutely did not deceive at all. When a man was removed, the kitchen was even more busy. After a while, you may have to re-arrange people to work in the kitchen. Rather than using new hands, you might as well use skilled hands."

Gu Jiu looked at Mrs. Zhu with a faint smile, "There are so many things in the kitchen, it's busy, it's not fake. But no matter how busy it is to abolish a few people, it will be too busy.

Each courtyard was abolished by 30%. I heard that Si Gongzi used to have eight dishes and two soups for each meal, but now the Fourth Lady is in charge, and each meal has been changed to four dishes and two soups.

Each courtyard eats less food every day, and it stands to reason that your kitchen is much more relaxed than before. Not to mention the abolition of 10% of the people, even if the abolition of 20% of the people at a time, it is still busy. "

Madam Zhu's face looked like pig liver. "The eldest lady knows everything. But, can the servants decide who is to be abolished?"

Gu Jiu stared at each other and smiled softly, "It's not impossible to let you decide. After all, you are a kitchen manager, and you are most familiar with it in and out of the kitchen. However, you still have to show the list to this lady first."

Mrs. Zhu was overjoyed, and directly reported to the list of a few obnoxious people.

Gu Jiu smiled clearly when he heard the name.

Unsurprisingly, everyone is taking this opportunity to eradicate dissidents.

She said directly: "Your list is not good. As far as I know, these people have been working diligently. Except for the broken mouth, they like to sue you. There is nothing wrong with them."

Madam Zhu is embarrassed now, but she is still arguing, "Madam, the slaves and maids really have no selfish intentions. The slaves and maids wholeheartedly want to make the kitchen better, but these people always go against the slaves, so that they can't do anything well. Madam wants It is absolutely impossible for these people to rectify the kitchen without abolishing them."

Gu Jiu snorted coldly, his face became cold, "Are you threatening this lady?"

"Slaves dare not."

Madame Zhu said she didn't dare, but she didn't think so in her heart.

She secretly poked her lips, what kind of lady, who has no power, really thinks she can be the master?

Gu Jiu sneered, "If this lady wants to keep these people, what will you do?"

Mrs. Zhu said: "The servant is really powerless, and I'm afraid there is no intention of doing things in the kitchen."

Gu Jiu raised an eyebrow and smiled, "So, your ability is really unbearable. You can't manage a small kitchen. What qualifications do you have to do kitchen stewardship. My wife might as well dismiss you directly and replace it with someone who can help Ben. Madam takes care of the kitchen."

Madam Zhu's expression changed, "The slave and maidservant are the old man in the house and have been working in the kitchen. There is no one who knows the kitchen better than the slave and maidservant."

"So what? The kitchen is a place to cook, not a place to compete for qualifications. Since you can't manage the kitchen well, then you can go home for the elderly."

Gu Jiu has a serious face and never shows mercy.

But Madam Zhu said: "Madam can't abolish the servant girl. The servant girl married Madam Qin's nephew. The servant girl went to see Madam Qin and the princess."

"Diao Nu!" Mother Fang scolded sharply.

Gu Jiu waved his hand, indicating that Mother Fang didn't have to worry.

She looked at Mrs. Zhu, "Do you think you are very important, so important that the princess will scold this lady for you? Who gives your face?

This madam is dignified and the eldest daughter-in-law of the royal mansion, and she abolished one of her servants, but she didn't believe anyone would dare to slap her in the face.

If you don't believe me, you can try it and see if this lady can take care of you.

Come, drag her down for me, check her greed, check how she gets her private money. Be sure to handle this matter firmly, no one dares to reverse the case. "

Little Huangmen Rongxin and Huang Zhuo bowed their heads and dragged Mrs. Zhu down.

Madame Zhu finally knew she was afraid.

She shook off the two yellow doors and knelt on the ground with a puff, "Madam, the slave and maid knew that she was wrong. The slave and maid really knew that she was wrong. The slave and maid would never dare anymore. From now on, she would listen to everything. Madam called the slave to go. East, the slave and maid will never go west. Please madam to give the slave and maid another chance."

Gu Jiu snorted, "Can you manage the kitchen?"

"Can you be able to! The slave and maid must be able to manage the kitchen."

Gu Jiu snorted, "It's a pity that it's too late. Before, this lady gave you a face and you don't want it, so now don't blame this lady for turning her face ruthlessly. Drag it on."

This time, Rong Xin and Huang Zhuo didn't give Madame Zhu a chance and kept dragging her out.

Madam Zhu yelled, "Madam, please! The slave-maid refuses to accept it, and the slave-maid wants to report to the princess, saying that the wife is retaliating against her."

"Wait!"

Mother Fang called out two yellow doors.

Mrs. Zhu looked surprised, thinking that there was a bright future.

Madam Fang stepped forward, raised her hand, slapped her face, and directly swollen Madame Zhu's face.

Then he said: "Close her mouth. Dare to talk nonsense again and cut her tongue."

Lady Zhu's eyes widened, she couldn't believe it.

Gu Jiu lowered his head and smiled, and Mother Fang was the real cruel person when she came out of the palace.

Huang Zhuo took a smelly sock and stuffed it directly in Lady Zhu's mouth.

Mrs. Zhu was almost turned over.

Then she was dragged away.

After dealing with Mrs. Zhu, it would be much easier for Gu Jiu to clean up the kitchen.

She rearranged people to manage the kitchen, and promoted several people who dare to work.

Finally, the abolition list was handed over. The first name on the list is Lady Zhu.

When Princess Pei saw the list, she didn't comment.

Mother Qin accepted the benefits of Zhu's daughter, so she naturally wanted to speak for Zhu's daughter.

She looked for an opportunity and said to Pei, "Manny, the eldest lady is renovating the kitchen. This method is also a bit harsh. Could it be that she wants to establish authority and replace her. After all, she is the eldest daughter-in-law and should be a housekeeper. "

Pei was unwilling to listen to these words, "What is the rightful steward? The princess is not dead yet. Don't forget, this is the Ning Palace, and the princess is the mistress of the Palace."

Madam Qin pretended to be frightened, "The slaves dared not forget what the lady said for a moment. But the eldest lady might not think so. She said that this time the kitchen rectification, the lady specially arranged the errands for her, hoping that she could do well.

In the end, she and Niangniang worked against each other, and specifically abolished Niangniang's people. She was too arrogant to do this. It's like a face slap! "

Pei frowned, looked at the list again, and they were all familiar names.

To say that these people are her people, it is not counted. But it is not right to say that these people are not hers.

Pei is in charge of the palace and has a lot of resources and money in his hands, so he doesn't count on the kitchen oil and water at all.

Therefore, the people who arranged in the kitchen were not her cronies.

It was only after looking pleasing to the eye and seeing that she was still smart, before agreeing to place Zhu Zhu and others in the position of stewardship.

But what Mother Qin said also made sense.

As soon as Gu Jiu took the shot, he cut off the people he arranged, which was obviously a violation of the yang and the yin, and went against her.

She threw the list to Mother Qin, "Tell the old lady and ask her to draw up another list. Don't stare at that petty profit all day long."

Mother Qin was overjoyed when she heard this.

This matter was done anyhow.

"The slave and maid will send someone to the eastern courtyard."

...

East courtyard.

The maids of Qingmei were filled with indignation.

Xiao Cui snorted, "It must be that Mother Qin made the ghost. Zhu's daughter is Mother Qin's nephew and daughter-in-law. It must be Mother Qin who went forward in front of the princess, and the princess will deny the list drawn by the wife. ."

Qingmei said: "What can I do. Mother Qin is the most useful mother around the princess and the empress, she said a word, better than the wife said ten words."

Madam Fang discussed with Gu Jiu, "Madam, do you want to draw up a new list?"

Gu Jiu shook his head, "No. Madame Zhu must be abolished. This matter cannot be changed. If Madame Zhu is allowed to turn over, from now on, no one will listen to this lady's dispatch."

"Mrs. Qin wants to protect Madame Zhu, and the princess is standing on Mother Qin's side again. What should I do about this?"

Gu Jiu chuckled softly, "Mother Qin really thought that if she said a few words, she would be able to lose my wife's decision and let her turn over. Then my wife would let her know that some things can be changed without relying on slander. . Go and call Huang Zhuo and the others."

Mother Fang's eyes lit up, "Madam is going to?"

Gu Jiu laughed, "The prince and the princess have repeatedly emphasized the need to be frugal in spending. This lady does what they say, catching moths and cutting the kitchen cost. After the results are obtained, she will naturally report to the prince and princess."

Mother Fang laughed, "Madam is right."

Huang Zhuo and several people thoroughly investigated Mrs. Zhu.

In a short period of time, he has obtained the iron proof.

Gu Jiu checked the evidence and nodded in satisfaction.

When everything was ready, Gu Jiu came to Chunhetang with various materials.

The second wife Ouyang Fu asked with a look of concern: "I heard that my sister-in-law has started to abolish the kitchen. Is things going well?"

"Thank you for your concern. Everything is going well."

Xiao Qin'er sneered when she heard the words, "Sister-in-law will really open her eyes and talk nonsense. How did I hear that the mother and concubine have rejected your list and asked you to draw up a new list and submit it."

Gu Jiu smiled softly and looked back at Xiao Qin'er, "Is there anything like this? Why am I not sure? The news of the four younger siblings is really well-known."

Xiao Qin'er was dissatisfied, "Pretend to be stupid. This matter has spread throughout the whole government a long time ago, and I want to deny it. Hmph, I want to face and suffer."

Gu Jiu smiled and said, "My four siblings don't worry about my affairs. You should take care of your own three-acre land."

Everyone was there, and Pei also arrived in the hall.

The crowd came forward to salute, and then sat down separately.

Pei's words are straightforward, "So many days have passed, have all the things you explained to you been done?"

"Don't worry, you have done it as you ordered."

Everyone handed in their respective lists. Pei glanced at them and said: "These lists will be reviewed by the princess to ensure that no one is using power for personal gain."

After speaking, she swept her eyes towards Gu Jiu, "Dalang's wife, where is the list of people who have been abolished in the kitchen?"

Gu Jiu took the list from Qingmei and handed it in.

Pei's face collapsed when he saw it, "What's the matter with you? This princess didn't send someone to tell you that this list was not approved, and asked you to draw up a new one. You actually handed in another copy that is exactly the same, right? "

Gu Jiu said in a calm tone, "Mother-in-law Rongzi, my daughter-in-law deeply reflected on herself yesterday. What's wrong with this list? Is anyone wronged?

Later, my daughter-in-law checked the account books of the kitchen for the past five years and found the crux of the problem.

These people on the list are all guilty of death, and they must not be allowed to stay in the palace as a moth and greedy the money of the Mo palace.

Please look at the mother and concubine, here is a bill compiled by the daughter-in-law. I believe the mother-in-law will support her daughter-in-law's decision after reading this bill. "

The bill was handed over to Pei.

Pei's expression became more and more solemn, flipping through the pages.

Mother Qin craned her neck, took a peek, her heart jumped.

The eldest lady is so vicious. In order to cut Lady Zhu, she did everything she could.

She looked at Gu Jiu, her eyes gloomy.

Gu Jiu smiled at her, as if saying: You do the first year of junior high school, and I do the fifteenth. If you are willing to bet, don't blame anyone.

Mother Qin clenched her fists. At this time, she did not dare to speak falsely for fear of being angry by the princess.

I only hope that the princess and empress can see through Gu Jiu's tricks and don't be fooled.

After reading the bill, Pei asked with a gloomy face: "These are all real?"

Gu Jiu said affirmatively: "It is true."

"What about the evidence? This princess can't conclude that those people are moths based on a single bill you made."

"There is evidence."

After speaking, Gu Jiu clapped his hands, and the servant came in carrying all the kitchen accounts for five years.

Gu Jiu pointed to the books and said, "Qi, my concubine, my daughter-in-law has circled and marked all the problematic accounts.

In addition, my daughter-in-law also compared the prices in Beijing over the past five years and concluded that in the past five years alone, these people in the kitchen had at least tens of thousands of taels of silver.

After pushing it up for a few years, I don't know how much money they have greeted me.

For example, the fourth son’s favorite chicken tongue is said to have to kill a hundred chickens each time to make a chicken tongue feast. The cost is about thirty taels.

However, the number recorded on the ledger is fifty taels, and it is getting higher every year. This year, the fourth son had a chicken tongue feast, and the price had risen to 80 tael.

In fact, all costs add up and still only need thirty taels. The extra fifty taels were naturally greeted by ink. "

"Okay!" When Xiao Qin'er heard about this, she was half-dead, "Dare to feel that the expenses in our yard have been corrupted by this gang of moths. Concubine, you have to call the shots for us." Pei stared After looking at Xiao Qin'er, there is no city mansion at all, so she jumped out for the sake of mere tens of thousands. Are her eyelids so shallow?

Concubine Shen side smiled secretly, Xiao Qin'er got into Qian's eyes. She jumped out, didn't she help Gu Jiu a lot?

She also said that she was going to fight with Gu Jiu, but her city mansion was not led by Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu took the fourth son’s favorite chicken tongue as an example. It was clear that Xiao Qin'er was deliberately calculating.

However, Xiao Qin'er took the initiative to jump into the pit, which was really stupid.

Xiao Qin'er couldn't help it either.

It doesn't matter if she gets into the eyes of money, or if she is short-sighted, doesn't she really know that she jumped into the hole? Didn't she know that she had helped Gu Jiu by jumping out?

In fact, she knew it all.

It is really poor and short.

She had a lot of dowries, but she couldn't stand Liu Yi's expense.

Liu Yi didn't have any business under his name, and it all relied on the monthly rules in the Fuzhong and the money for bad work.

Prince Liu Yi, how can this little money be spent?

From time to time, I have to find Xiao Qin'er for money.

Xiao Qin'er's dowry money is also limited, and there is no way to open up Liu Yi's messy expenses.

There is no way but to think of ways to make money.

Adding to the fact that it was cut down to 30% of the cost all at once, Xiao Qin'er was worried about money these days and was almost dead.

I suddenly heard that the kitchen dared to covet the cost of their yard, and she was so angry that she wanted to kill the people in the kitchen.

The old mother worked so hard to save money, and she couldn't bear to spend it, but she turned out to be cheap for that screwdriver.

At this time, Xiao Qin'er didn't care about her position, no matter what contradiction she had with Gu Jiu, she only wanted to tell the kitchen lady to spit out all the money she had greeted with ink, so as to dispel her hatred.

Pei picked up a ledger casually and flipped through it.

Sure enough, as Gu Jiu said, the ledger was marked with red pen, which was clear at a glance.

The price on the ledger is compared with the actual price, and the difference is clear at a glance.

Turning page by page, turning over a ledger, and making a rough calculation, let alone being greedy for three or four thousand taels.

This is a ledger.

After five years, there are a total of ten books.

Pei didn't dare to calculate the account inside.

Snapped!

Pei threw the account book on the table, "Go, call Mr. Jialing. I want to ask him, how does he housekeeper? So many worms, so many greedy ink, he didn't notice beforehand?"
