Rebirth of an Abandoned Woman

Mrs. Wang was very happy when she heard this, so she joked to Gu Fangzi: "You are a good monkey, I think you miss this more than I do! You are so generous!"

The maids and wives all laughed, Gu Fangzi also laughed and cried out, and hurriedly laughed again: "Auntie wronged people! People obviously said that because Auntie likes it! If this is the case, I will be a host and filial to Auntie. How about it?" After speaking, without waiting for Mrs. Wang to speak, she ordered Lan Xiang to go to the kitchen to say something.

Lan Xiang agreed and went. She had already received Gu Fangzi's order, so she naturally knew how to speak. When they arrived at the kitchen, they didn't mention Wang's at all, but only said that the lady was going to make snail cakes, and asked the kitchen to rush to make them and wait for her to come and pick them up. The money would be charged to the lady's account.

Where does the kitchen know that this is actually the snack that the lady wants to eat? Hearing that it was Gu Fangzi who wanted it, she became a little lazy, and seeing Lan Xiang's domineering and arrogant tone was even more unpleasant, so she said very bluntly: "Miss Lan Xiang, this bubble snail cake is causing trouble, and it's too late now. Don't be free, just wait a few days!"

Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Lan Xiang ran away in a hurry, and she didn't know if she heard it or not.

The "blind" in the kitchen didn't make any sense, she just assumed she heard it, turned around and forgot about it, and got busy with other things.

Miss Biao has been left in the cold since she kept her filial piety, and the eldest and young master almost never came to see her. Instead, he guards the eldest grandma all day long. Now that the eldest grandma is in charge of the house, who among the servants seems to be blind? How could he take a concubine who has lost power in his eyes?

The outcome of the incident was unpredictable, and Wang was furious. The eldest lady in her mansion would not even want to eat a complicated snack? This is not bad! When the cook on duty was about to be called over for a lesson, Gu Fangzi kept apologizing from the sidelines, and said some explicit and secretly fanning things, which made Wang even angrier.

At this time, the cook knew that it was the eldest lady who wanted to eat the snail cake, she couldn't help but secretly complained, scolding Lan Xiang to the point where she couldn't get rid of her body. But at this time, how dare you tell the grievance that Lan Xiang didn't speak clearly? If I said this at this time, I am afraid that the punishment will be more serious! I had no choice but to kowtow desperately to beg for mercy, insisting that I was too busy to forget, and I will make it up tomorrow, begging Da Furen for mercy.

Even Sang Wan was alarmed by this matter, and hurried over to ask what was the matter.

Mrs. Wang was so angry that she couldn't let it go. When she saw her, she sneered and said: "You are in charge of this family, and you have followed the rules! I want to eat a snack, but I can't." It’s okay, the kitchen has to be free! You can see for yourself the good guy you made!”

Sang Wan immediately knelt down in surprise, raised her head and said: "Mother, what do you mean! My daughter-in-law has never been negligent in serving her mother with all her heart, so please learn from her! Perhaps sister-in-law Xu has been erroneous for a while, mother, please don't be angry. Tell her to do it tomorrow!"

"No need!" Wang said with a sneer, "How can I still eat it! Besides, it's just a snack, it doesn't matter if you eat or not, don't miss my serious business!"

After hearing these words, Sister-in-law Xu's heart became more and more flustered, and she repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Whatever mother said, it's because my daughter-in-law can't discipline her normally, and you are angry because of this turmoil! When the young master left home, he told his daughter-in-law to serve mother well, so that mother can live in peace and comfort. My daughter-in-law is really ashamed that something like this happened after he left the house for only a few days! Mother, if you say this again, my daughter-in-law will feel even more ashamed! You are the eldest wife of the family, the master of the whole family, who would dare to do this How can I be disrespectful to you? Unless it’s because I don’t want my life! There must be a misunderstanding about this matter. Mother, you are angry because of this misunderstanding. Don’t tell me that you feel uncomfortable, even if your daughter-in-law sees it, you will feel bad! Mother, calm down, okay? Good!" Sang Wan hastily begged again.

Mrs. Wang also thought about it a bit, and it's true that her son and daughter-in-law have always been filial, and she is the elder sister-in-law among her peers. Except for the few tablets in the ancestral hall, who can surpass her? Who among the servants below would dare to be rude to her? I'm afraid it was a misunderstanding.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang's complexion slowed down and she remained silent, Nanny Li also stepped forward to laugh with her and said, "Yes, miss, what Grandma said is right! Don't say anything else, it's not the person in the main courtyard who is going to spread the word, it's Lan. Xiang, you can't blame them all for being negligent in the kitchen! I don't know how Lan Xiang passed on the words at that time, did she make it clear!"

Before Mammy Li finished speaking, Sister-in-Law Xu seemed to have grasped at straws, and hurriedly said: "Ms. Lan Xiang only asked the old slave to make the bubble snail cakes quickly, and did not say that the lady wanted it! The old slave still had some on hand at the time." Things need to be busy, just say it, just say it will be done tomorrow, who knows—”

Sister-in-law Xu is also clever, and when she changed the subject, the original "Let's talk about it in a few days" became "I will do it tomorrow." refute. Because she ran away after finishing the order, and said to Wang Shi and Gu Fangzi that "it has been explained", Wang naturally thought that she would do it after the explanation, who knows that Mrs. , that is Lan Xiang's intentional concealment, if she and Wang clarified "do it tomorrow", Wang will not be so angry.

"Sister-in-law Xu, stop talking," Gu Fangzi cut off Sister-in-law Xu's words lightly, nodded apologetically to her and said, "It's all my fault, I didn't think of this level for a while! I didn't expect that I am just a guest now. My words Of course it doesn't work, if I knew this earlier, I would have ordered Lan Xiang to make it clear that it was my aunt who wanted it, and this misunderstanding would not have happened!"

This is turning a corner and saying that sister-in-law Xu disrespected her.

Sister-in-law Xu's complexion changed slightly, and before she could speak, Nanny Li said, "Miss Biao is really right, if Lan Xiang makes it clear, there will be no misunderstanding Yes! The kitchen was really busy yesterday. Miss Biao, did you forget? Yesterday, there was a big sacrificial dish to be enshrined in the ancestral hall of Shi’s family, and Miss Biao’s father was also offering sacrifices. Everyone in the kitchen was as busy as a spinning top! Sister-in-law Xu Explain that we will make snail cakes tomorrow, and this old slave thinks there is nothing wrong with it!"

Mrs. Wang was also very angry when she heard Gu Fangzi's words, and was about to utter a few words, but she fell silent after hearing Li Nanny's words. Whenever Shi Fengju traveled far away, on the 15th day of the Lunar New Year or the birthday of gods and Buddhas in the mansion, sacrificial dishes would be made to worship the ancestor gods, so as to bless Shi Fengju safe and sound outside. This is what Mrs. Wang personally ordered many years ago and has been doing so now.

Of course, the safety of the son is more important than a bite of snail cake. How can the ancestors and gods be negligent?

Lan Xiang had no choice but to kneel down, bowed her head and said: "Servant, this servant rushed back to report to Da Furen and Miss, and never heard what Sister-in-law Xu said behind..."

"Then it's just a misunderstanding, miss, look! Let sister-in-law Xu do it tomorrow, miss, it's not worth it for you to get angry over these trivial things!" Nanny Li laughed.

Mrs. Xu quickly kowtowed to express her determination.

Wang waved her hand, frowned and sighed: "Forget it! I don't have to do it tomorrow, and I don't have the appetite anymore! Get up! Wanniang, you get up too! From now on, you can do things more safely! It's not worth it, it's just a matter of provoking idleness!"

Everyone quickly agreed, and Nanny Li stepped forward to help Sang Wan.

Gu Fangzi also stepped forward, helped Sang Wan with Nanny Li, and said with a smile: "It's all my fault, that girl Lan Xiang didn't know how to do things, and the wronged sister was wronged! I will definitely teach her a good lesson later. My sister is in charge of so many things in the house, it’s no wonder there are one or two negligence, it’s really hard for my sister! My sister has caused trouble for my sister, I feel really sorry, and I ask my lord to forgive my sister for this Come back, my sister can't pay my sister!"

After finishing speaking, he took two steps back and knelt towards her to bless her.

Sang Wan couldn't help being secretly angry, and said with a faint smile: "My sister is serious, it's just a misunderstanding, why should I be wronged! It's my negligence that hurt your mother and broke her mood!" Sang Wan looked at Wang and smiled. Said: "Mother, you are the lord, forgive my daughter-in-law this time!"

Mrs. Wang couldn't help laughing, and sighed: "Forget it, let's not talk about this matter! It is normal for you to neglect one or two things in so many things in the house. At first, your mother said that out of anger. You Don't take it to heart, ah. In the future, the servants should beat and beat more, so as not to become negligent after a long time in a comfortable life! Also, Fangzi is also the master of the mansion, and her words are also words, in the future If someone dares not to take it seriously again, I will not obey after I know it!"

Wang originally wanted to ask Gu Fangzi to help Sang Wan take charge of the housekeeping, but suddenly remembered what her son told her before leaving home, obviously she didn't want Gu Fangzi to get involved in the affairs of the house, so she held back the words.

Sang Wan and Nanny Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Sang Wan hurriedly agreed respectfully, said goodbye to Nanny Li, and took Sister-in-law Xu along with her.

If under such circumstances, the Wang family distributes the power to Gu Fangzi, countless people in this mansion will have different thoughts. Even if there was no point, her last sentence was to defend Gu Fangzi.

Gu Fangzi was busy and coaxed Mrs. Wang with sweet talk, which finally made her feel happy and smiled. Gu Fangzi was secretly depressed. Originally, she thought that if she followed her words, her aunt would definitely let her help the housekeeper. Now that her eldest cousin is not here, no one knows the foundation of this house better than her. As long as she moves freely The tricks caused Sang Wan to suffer a few big losses and fell out of favor in front of her aunt. Even if the big cousin came back, everything would be a foregone conclusion!

I don't want to, my aunt obviously wanted to speak, but she didn't say it for some reason. I have tried my best to make this game, and I saw that my work was in vain!

Fortunately, after this incident, everyone also saw the aunt's protection and attention to him. It is expected that no one would dare not take him seriously for the time being, which is better than nothing.

Gu Fangzi moved back to Peony Garden after living with Wang for four days, claiming that Nanny Li had worked hard, and in order to express her gratitude, she asked Lan Xiang to reward Nanny Li with money and clothing. Nanny Li was so surprised, she thought the sun was coming out from the west!
