Second update

Although three days had passed, Ping'er still felt as if he had stepped on cotton when he thought of the scene when Jiao Shun personally rode a rickshaw to marry him.

Of course, this has something to do with the fact that Mr. Jiao worked in her house for three consecutive days.

However, Xing Xiuyan took the initiative to ask for help early that morning. He said that this month's expenses and income were too complicated and he could not handle it alone. He was afraid of missing the day to report the accounts to his wife at the beginning of the month, so he wanted to ask Ping'er for help.

She said it politely, but Ping'er felt like Ming Jing in his heart. Even including the old servants of the Rongguo Mansion he had just accepted, there were still less than a hundred people in the Jiao family. With Xing Xiuyan's talent, how could he be unable to support himself alone?

This is just to find a reason to proactively delegate power to yourself.

If it were a wife, it would be fine if the old lady had some arrangements, but Ping'er knew that this was Xing Xiuyan's own idea.

Thinking that in the Rongguo Mansion, people's brains were beaten into pieces just for the sake of a kitchen manager's position, Xing Xiuyan's actions became more and more commendable.

The two of them are not strangers, and Xing Xiuyan is not someone who plays hard to get.

So Ping'er didn't refuse in any pretentious way. He just wanted to ask Xing Xiuyan first when he was waiting for the accounting, no matter how familiar he was, and silently showed his willingness to help.

Speaking of which, Ping'er played a similar role in Rongguofu.

Therefore, once the two of them joined hands, there was no awkwardness at all.

The only thing that was different from when he was in Rongguo Mansion was that Xing Xiuyan had no intention of enriching his own pockets, and the accounts were organized clearly and carefully. Even Ping'er, who was used to doing the accounting, couldn't help but secretly admire him.

The two of them were getting into a good mood in the east wing room, but suddenly they heard Shi Xiangyun outside: "Sister Ping'er, come out quickly and see who is coming!"

After getting married, Ping'er repeatedly hoped that Xiangyun would change her words and said that she could not afford to be called mistress like this, but Shi Xiangyun insisted and refused to agree. Besides, she was used to being called "Sister Xing".

In the end, I had to let her go.

Now that he heard her shouting outside, Ping'er hurriedly put down the account book in his hand and walked out the door. He saw Shi Xiangyun pulling someone to the west wing.

Ping'er saw the man's appearance clearly and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Second Grandma, why are you here?!"

The visitor is none other than Wang Xifeng.

When she saw Ping'er in the east chamber, she turned around and pulled Shi Xiangyun towards this side. She said with a smile: "According to the rules, you have to go back today, but I'm sure you won't go back to Rongguo Mansion. Since

If this is the case, then naturally I can only come to see you."

Ping'er said hurriedly: "Second Grandma made a serious statement, how dare I take your words seriously?"

As she spoke, she was really worried, fearing that Wang Xifeng would come again for the Wang family's affairs, and it would be difficult for her to be caught in the middle.

However, there was no sign of gratitude on her face as she led Wang Xifeng and Shi Xiangyun into her room.

Wang Xifeng followed the master as he pleased, but Shi Xiangyun refused to follow him in. He said with a smile: "You, master and servant, met in the past. You must have something to say. I won't disturb you for now. After you have finished talking about old times, we will go to the main room."

Talk to me."

After saying that, he bowed slightly to Wang Xifeng and returned to the main room happily.

"This girl is so reckless when she gets married."

Wang Xifeng couldn't help but shake her head when she saw this, and her words were quite sour.

"Our wife is really kind."

Ping'er replied with a smile, pushed the door open and let her into the west wing.

Wang Xifeng was not polite when she came in. She directly occupied the magpie nest and sat down on the main seat. She looked at the furnishings in the room and praised: "Although the furnishings in this room are not as good as mine, they are much better than those in Aunt Zhao's room.

It's not like I'm insulting you."

Ping'er stepped forward to pour tea for her and said, "Grandma Lao, I'm thinking about you. Everything is fine with me here."

Although her attitude was warm and cordial, Wang Xifeng had been with her for many years, so she could still see some reluctance in her.

Then he covered his mouth and said with a smile: "What? Are you afraid that I won't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing?"

Without waiting for Ping'er to answer, she said proudly: "Just put your heart in your stomach, the Wang family's matter is over, and I don't need to worry about it anymore!"

"really?!"

Hearing this, Ping'er felt as if he had been granted amnesty and hurriedly said: "Didn't you say it was difficult to handle a few days ago? Why did it suddenly..."

"Hmph~"

Wang Xifeng proudly crossed her legs, raised her pointed chin and said in a tone of voice: "Logically speaking, it shouldn't be told outside, but you are not an outsider, that's all, I will reveal some information to you - do you think our Taiwei master really trusts me?

That brother? In fact, sending him to the capital this time was just a cover-up."

"While the people from Liangzhe and Zhejiang are focusing their attention on the capital, my father has secretly obtained their fatal clues. Now that the hemp pole is fighting against the wolf, the matter is naturally easy to discuss - now there are only a few details left.

Let’s talk about it, and when the time comes, we’ll pay what’s due, and the matter will be completely settled!”

In fact, according to Wang Xifeng's point of view, since both parties have checks and balances, why bother to use real money to compensate the other party?

Unfortunately, Wang Ziteng had already anticipated her thoughts, and specifically asked her in the letter not to let a small expense lead to a big loss, so she had no choice but to give up.

However, there was no need for her to tell Ping'er these details in detail. She only gave a rough outline and then revealed her real purpose: "Go back and tell that heartless guy so that he won't avoid me in the future - hum.

, Men are indeed unreliable, and you can’t count on them when the critical moment comes!”

Her words were full of disgust, but seeing her take the initiative to come to Jiao's house for this reason, it was clear that she was actually eager to renew her affair with Mr. Jiao.

After achieving the goal, Wang Xifeng asked Ping'er about her experience during these days. Seeing that no one had bullied her, she led Ping'er to the main room, chatted with Shi Xiangyun, and finally had lunch at Jiao's house before giving Shi Shi

Then he said goodbye and left.

When Jiao Shun came back from the Yamen in the evening, Ping'er hurriedly reported the situation to him.

Although Jiao Shun had already made up his mind to sit back and watch, when he heard that the Wang family had reached a deal with the two Zhejiang people, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He thought to himself that Taiwei Wang really had a back-up plan. No wonder he could be famous on the southeast coast.

The king dominates.

Immediately, he put the matter behind him, summoned Shi Xiangyun and Xing Xiuyan, and announced that they would be off for an outing tomorrow.

Then he said: "The double bicycle I mentioned last time has been prepared, and I have also prepared some new gadgets. I will take them out tomorrow for you to have a look."

When Shi Xiangyun heard that he was going to go on an outing, he called out long live the mountain.

Xing Xiuyan originally wanted to stay at home to take care of the accounts, but she was so pestered that she had no choice but to change her mind.

It's late.

Jiao Shun stayed in the main room at night and was still very excited after listening to Shi Xiangyun's chattering until the middle of the night. He had to summon up the remaining courage he had for three consecutive days and blocked her mouth. He was so sweaty that he embraced her.

And fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning, Shi Xiangyun started busy preparing luggage again. Ping'er and Shi Xiangyun were led by her and couldn't help but look forward to this outing.

…………

at the same time.

After finding out that the Queen was not on duty, Concubine Rong rushed to Chuxiu Palace after breakfast.

At that time, the queen was listening to the complaint from Concubine Wu, who came to the door early, saying that it was because Prince Yao had taken the initiative to get close to Jiao Shun a while ago, which made the lecturers and bachelors very dissatisfied, and they made several roundabout protests.

The queen was worrying about how to persuade her, but suddenly she heard that Concubine Rong was here, and she hurriedly ordered someone to invite her in.

On the other hand, she comforted Concubine Wu in every possible way: "This is what Your Majesty meant. Since Your Majesty is ill, it is an act of filial piety for Brother Yao to comply with Your Majesty's wishes. If those Confucian scholars continue to be picky, you might as well let people use this

response."

"Can……"

Concubine Wu still felt something was wrong, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she saw Concubine Rong walking in from outside, so she had to close her mouth.

The queen took the initiative to stand up and greet her: "Why do you have the time to come over today, sister Concubine Rong?"

Concubine Rong saw that Concubine Wu was also there, with a rather gloomy look on her face, so she guessed that she might have come at the wrong time, but it was too late to leave at this time.

She could only bite the bullet and follow the original plan, Yingying bowed down and said: "Thanks to the empress for stepping forward a few days ago, if something else really happened, I'm afraid I will be blamed for death!"

Hearing what she said was exaggerated, Concubine Wu couldn't help but turn her head and look over, even though her mind was filled with things about her son.

The queen hurriedly said: "Sister, please get up quickly. If you want to thank Jiao Changqing, you should also thank Jiao Changqing. If he hadn't made a difference, how could the matter have been resolved so easily?"

Hearing that this was related to Jiao Shun, Concubine Wu couldn't help but frown slightly. Just when she wanted to hear what was going on, someone from the palace suddenly came to report something.

The queen had no choice but to plead guilty and go outside to whisper to the palace people.

Seeing this, Concubine Rong directed her flattering gaze at Concubine Wu. Concubine Wu didn't show any pretense and turned her head to avoid her sight.

Hum~

It’s just that the son is more valuable than the mother, so what’s the big deal!

Concubine Rong felt sour and annoyed, so she stopped rubbing her hot face against her cold butt, and looked aimlessly at the decorations in the room.

Then, she saw a mahogany box in the corner that was incompatible with the surroundings...
