"Ma'am, the master is here."

Xie's expression a Leng, then stood up, personally went out to meet.

"Here comes the master

Xie met Mr. Gu at the door.

Mr. Gu's face was gloomy, as if a storm was brewing.

Xie's heart thumped with anxiety,

Mr. Gu went straight into the room and sat down on the throne with a serious expression and no anger.

His eyes fell on Xie's face, which made Xie's pressure multiply.

Xie's head is low, dare not face Gu's eyes.

What to do? How to explain Gu Zhen's affairs so that the master will believe her?

Xie's very aggrieved, Gu Zhen's matter, she is really innocent. But will the master believe her?

She summoned up her courage and looked at Mr. Gu.

"Master

Xie's voice is very weak, obviously with worry, uneasiness, contradiction, struggle, and a little innocent.

Mr. Gu didn't move his eyebrows and eyes, "isn't madam going to explain the matter of girl Zhen?"

"It's my fault."

Xie Shi was quite straightforward, "I didn't expect that my mother's sister-in-law was so brave that she even calculated Jane under our noses. If I knew she had this in mind, I would not invite her. Even if you invite her, you will send someone to watch her. She will never be allowed to take advantage of it. "

Mr. Gu stares at Xie's family and says, "is that all madam wants to say?"

Mr. Gu's tone was light, but Xie heard his anger.

Xie's no longer hesitated, said in a hurry: "master, I'm careless in management and let people take advantage of the loopholes. This is my fault. Please punish me.

But I didn't know what my sister-in-law and Xie Erlang did in advance. Or servant girl found wrong, timely report to me, I just know that Jane girl had an accident.

At that time, I severely scolded my sister-in-law and Xie Erlang. They want to take the opportunity to marry Jane girl, I told them to get out of the door.

Master, every word I said is true, there is no empty word. Please believe me

Mr. Gu said with a straight face, "is this the explanation you gave me?"

Xie's heart was flustered, "master, I really didn't cheat you. I really didn't know about it in advance. "

Mr. Gu sneered, "it's true that you may not have known in advance. But your sister-in-law, and your brother-in-law, what kind of people are they, can you not know?

In the past, how did I tell you to stay away from them. Since you came back to the capital, you have been interacting with them again and again.

What happened to Jane today was not an accident at all. It was a deliberate calculation.

Your elder brother Xie Maoshi is deceiving others too much. He repeatedly rode on my official's head and ran wild. Is it really impossible for me to take him?

Since he dares to come to hell in my official's residence, he is calculating my daughter. Then don't blame me for not being recognized by my own officials. I want him to look good. "

Lord Gu was furious. If it had not been for a trace of reason, he would have killed Xie's family.

"Master, there may be some misunderstanding in this matter. Elder brother is not that kind of person with shallow eyelids. Even if he really wants to calculate, he can't stare at the common girl. This is more like the work done by my sister-in-law and Xie Erlang. Please be aware of this matter. "

Mr. Gu snorted coldly and sneered, "even if it's not made by your elder brother, what can we do? Who let him marry Ma Ma, gave birth to Xie Ding.

One of them is his real wife, and the other is his own son. Everything they do is on his head. "

"Master, I really want to break my face with elder brother. What can I do with Jane? What do you want her to do for the rest of her life? Is she still alive? "

Xie began to cry.

She continued to cry as she continued.

The six girls of haixibo mansion were nearby when the accident happened to miss Zhen. The whole process was very clear.

This will only be afraid that haixibo mansion has already known the news of the accident of girl Zhen. Nine or eight times out of ten, Miss Jane's marriage will not come to pass. "

"What do you want to say?" Mr. Gu stares at Xie

Xie said cautiously: "now, there are only three ways for Jane to go. One is to delay for another two years. After everyone forgets this matter, she will marry her again. Just in this way, Jane's youth will be delayed, and I'm afraid that she won't be able to say anything good.

Secondly, she will marry the girl far away. However, I couldn't give up. The girl's family is married far away, and there is no mother's family around her. However, if there is any accident, there is no one to support her. If the husband's family is kind, they can live on. In case of meeting the family with a good face and a bad heart, is it not a sheep's mouth.

The last way is to let Jane marry Xie Ding. Xie's family is in the wrong, and the master supports Zhen. Xie Ding and Xie's family certainly dare not appoint Quzhen. The only worry is that Jane may not want to"Do you want to let Jane marry Xie Ding?"

"It's not that I think about it, but it's the best way to deal with it. Don't you think so? "

Mr. Gu suddenly laughed, but his eyes had a chilling chill in his eyes. "Xie Shi, you should understand that Xie Mao has calculated for me several times. I can't be his daughter-in-law with him. You have this in your mind.

Please also tell Xie Mao what I mean. If you dare to make an idea of my children, I will not mind protecting the media for the Xie family. "

Mr. Gu's words were fierce, and Xie's whole body trembled.

"What about Jane?"

"When there is news from haixibo mansion, it is about the marriage of Jane."

"If the haixibo mansion doesn't take a fancy to Jane, according to the master's will, it will not delay the life of Jane."

Gu said with a straight face, "my daughter is willing to let her be an old girl rather than marry her to the Xie family."

Xie Shi wants to cry without tears, "does the master hate big brother so?"

"His wife and children dare to make trouble in my house. It's polite that I didn't kill the mother and son with a knife. From now on, the Xie family will not be allowed to visit. I take care of my family's children, and I am not allowed to visit Xie's family. As for you, do it yourself. "

Xie began to wail.

She knew that would happen.

What she was most worried about finally happened.

At the moment, Xie's heart hated Ma and Xie Erlang. She's been hurt so badly by a thousand knives.

Xie cried and said, "master, my concubine is really innocent."

Mr. Gu nodded, "I know you're not to blame for this. But, who let Xie Mao be your elder brother

Xie's tearful eyes were hazy, "master, can't you and elder brother reconcile? The eldest brother is loyal to his royal highness. In the future, if the prince's highness ascends the throne and becomes emperor, the master will also get great benefits. "

Mr. Gu sneered, "it's not too late for you to say this again when your royal highness really ascends the throne."

Xie's face was confused.

Mr. Gu frowned. "Today's banquet, all the people who come to this banquet are noble families. Don't you understand it?"

Xie Shi is at a loss. What do you understand?

"Isn't today's banquet a celebration of the master's promotion?"

Mr. Gu laughed at himself, "Gao Sheng? Does Madame really think that from the governor of Jinzhou to the governor of the capital, he was promoted

Xie is tongue tied. She doesn't understand officialdom.

After all, she read few books and was good at interior calculation, but she lacked the overall view.

In a word, the official affairs are that she is a woman. How can she understand these things. These are all men's worries.

She is a woman's family. It is enough to look after her husband and children and take care of her own house.

Her ability was sufficient when she was a local official.

But now in the capital, and the local political environment is completely different, Xie's insight is far from enough.

Mr. Gu looked at Xie's, and his eyes gradually became disappointed.

Sure enough, he could not expect too much from Xie.

In the past, Mr. Gu was very satisfied with Xie's gentleness, flattery and service.

Compared with the deceased Su family, Mr. Gu always felt that Xie's family was better than Su's.

But back in the capital, only a short period of time to a month, the reality severely hit Mr. Gu's face.

As his wife, Xie is totally unqualified.

Mr. Gu sighed. When he was young, he was frivolous and lustful for beauty. At that time, he did not understand the truth of marrying a good wife.

I always think that the girls from the rich families are more dignified but too boring. It's far from his ideal wife.

When Xie's family was righted, she satisfied Gu's imagination of a good wife.

In those years, the relationship between the couple was really honey.

But people can't stay in the youth forever, and people's ideas will change with age.

As a middle-aged man, Mr. Gu has become more and more practical without the young man's hot-blooded ideal.

Living in the big vat of Beijing, there is always a feeling that I can't do what I want.

Every time you do something in the yamen, you will encounter all kinds of obstacles.

Nominally, he is the official of the capital.

In fact, there are at least thirty or fifty mothers-in-law on him.

Every mother-in-law came to find fault with him.

Mr. Gu has suffered a lot from being a governor in the capital city for a short time. At this time, he urgently needs to open up his contacts in the capital.

This banquet, nominally to celebrate his promotion, is actually to manage contacts.

Among them, Hou Fu made great efforts.

As his wife, Xie's wife naturally has to fulfill the responsibility of a good wife.However, looking at Xie's face is still at a loss, Gu said it was false not to be disappointed.

Xie's family was his stephouse, who fought against all opinions and helped him to be upright himself.

How satisfied he was with Xie in the past, how disappointed he is now.

Mr. Gu laughed at himself. I regret that when I was young and frivolous, I abandoned the truth handed down by my ancestors. Now I suffer from not listening to the old man.

If he had followed everyone's advice and married a suitable stepwife, he would not have said anything else. At least he would have been better than Xie's in the management of Beijing's human relations.

Mr. Gu waved his hand, "that's it."

He was tired and lazy to continue to break with Xie.

Xie took Mr. Gu's sleeve and said, "master, my wife..."

Xie's eyes longed at Mr. Gu, clearly hoping that he could stay in Furong hospital at night.

Mr. Gu took Xie's hand and said without expression: "I'm tired today. You should have a rest earlier. I hope you really listen to what I said. "

Xie watched Mr. Gu leave and sobbed silently.

Chunhe came in from the outside, "madam, the master has already left. Don't cry. Be careful that your eyes will be damaged by crying."

After listening to Chunhe's persuasion, Xie gradually stopped her tears.

She clenched her teeth. "Xie Ding and ma have caused me such a miserable situation. This matter can't be settled like this."

"What is Madame going to do?"

Xie snorted, "wait for the news of haixibo mansion first. Tomorrow you go to Hou's house and tell the eldest lady that the master has agreed to marry Jane and Han sirang.

As long as haixibo's mansion nods, they will choose a auspicious day before the Chinese new year to decide on their marriage. "

Chunhe looked surprised and asked in a low voice, "Ma'am, if a big girl has such a thing, can she still marry to haixibo mansion?"

"It doesn't matter whether we can get married to haixibo house, but we have to show our attitude," Xie said. All in all, do as I tell you. "

Chunhe nodded, "I know. In addition, the cashier has sent the account book for the expenses of the banquet. Would you like to have a look at it? "

Xie waved his hand, "I'm tired. You can tell me directly how much money I spent."

Chunhe opened the account book and said, "the expenses, plus the rewards given to the servant girls, cost a total of 1800 taels. Three hundred taels of them will be borne by Gongzhong. The remaining 1500 taels will be borne by our second room. "

"What?"

Hearing the number, Xie almost jumped up.

"How does the cashier do the accounting and spend so much money? Did you check it? Is the account right? "

Chunhe lowered his head, some embarrassed, "the account book handed in by the accounting room, I can't understand it, and I can't check it. Besides, all the documents are still in the cashier's room. "

Xie's gnashing teeth, "it must be the big room who is calculating our second room. Zhang's greedy wife, even if she holds the right of housekeeper, even the banquet wants to be greedy and beautiful.

It's late this evening. Tomorrow morning, you will follow me to the meeting hall with your account book. I will ask Zhang's face-to-face. Does she want face? "

"Madam, would you like to look at the account book first to find out the loopholes. In the morning, I'll have a clear idea of the eldest lady. "

Chunhe suggested in a low voice.

Xie nodded. Chunhe had a point.

She took the account book from Chunhe's hand, opened it and immediately frowned.

How does the accounting room do the accounting? It's a mess. I can't understand it.

"What's wrong with this account book?"

Chunhe said in a low voice: "the maid asked the cashier, and they said that this is the bookkeeping method learned from Hou Fu. The big families in Beijing use this accounting method. Ma'am, do you want to find a professional accounting room to check the accounts? "

"Where can I find a professional accounting room to check accounts at this time? This is the account book in the government, and it can't be shown to the cashier outside. "

"My wife said. Call in the senior management in the morning. As I remember, the senior management has also recorded accounts before. "

Xie frowned, "Gao Sanfu is afraid that he can't do it alone. I still want to ask Mr. Ma who is close to the master for help.

He is the master of money.

After returning to Beijing this time, Mr. Ma's family also came to the capital. They lived in a small courtyard in the back lane of Gufu.

Mr. Liu did not follow him to the capital.

Today, the official business around Mr. Gu is mainly handled by Ma shiye and Gu Yu.

Chunhe said: "tomorrow morning, the maid will go to find someone to invite Ma shiye into the house."

Xie's cold hum, "I'd like to have a look. What else can Zhang say then?"

It was a long night and many people didn't fall asleep.

Gu Yue has been tossing and turning.

She called, and the girl grape came in from the outside and asked, "what's wrong with the girl?"

Gu Yue sat up from the bed, "big sister is still crying?"

Grape shook his head. "The girl cried all day and her voice was hoarse. I didn't hear the cry of the elder girl. I think this meeting has already stopped. "Gu Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "big sister cried for a day, I can hear her there's movement here, and she almost died."

Grape wants to say, big girl cried all day, it's not the girl you caused. She couldn't think of it secretly.

Gu Yue frowned and looked irritable.

This time, she is not satisfied with anything.

Grape advised: "girl, you'd better have a rest early. I'll give my wife my regards in the morning. "

"I know, I'm too restless to sleep."

She looked at the direction of lotus garden, "grape, did you say that mother and father had a good talk about the big sister's marriage?"

Grape hesitated for a moment, then said: "I heard that the master stayed in the lotus garden for less than half an hour and left."

Gu Yue was at a loss, "really?"

The grape nodded.

"Why don't you tell me something so important?" Gu Yue was angry.

Grapes wrongly said: "at that time, the girl was lying on the bed, the maid did not dare to disturb the girl."

Gu Yue snorted coldly, "do you know what your expression was when you left lotus garden? What's the situation over there? "

"I don't know."

"I don't know what to do with you."
