Once Xie Jingxi's people left, the daily work of the Marquis Mansion was immediately in a state of chaos.
The people in the accounts room were people that Xie Jingxi had borrowed from Bai Cao. These accounts rooms were all wealthy and difficult to find experts outside, entering the Marquis Mansion to manage these small accounts was already a waste of their resources, and all they cared about was Gu Yun and Xie Jingxi's face. He was no longer the butler, so how could he possibly stay in the Marquis Mansion to send people away for no reason?
In the past, Accountant Li had trained a few trusted aides who were changed by him as referees, which meant that right now, there was no one left in the accounts room of Marquis Mansion. Aunt Fang wanted to take the opportunity to insert her trusted aides in and take over some family matters, but she could not enter this kind of place as there was no one in the hands of Lady Zeng.
"Boss' daughter-in-law let go of her family's matter. It's also reasonable that she took her away. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good for her to stay with us and let us order her around, so there's no need to feel awkward."
Lady Zeng was very satisfied with Xie Jingxi's attitude, and didn't care too much about her people. It wasn't as if she had never taken care of her family, because the few stewards in charge of matters in the Marquis Mansion were all her people. The few in Xie Jingxi's hands had only been for a few days, so wasn't there something else that mattered?
A year ago, the Eldest Young Mistress hadn't been worth much, but now, she was completely different. What she did seemed like a trivial matter, but once a person was taken care of by the Eldest Young Mistress, most of them would be taken care of by the Eldest Young Mistress. Once the majority of the people were removed, the Eldest Young Mistress wouldn't be able to take care of them, not to mention that the Eldest Young Mistress was loyal to the Eldest Young Mistress, so she wouldn't be too happy about this meeting.
However, there were some things that she would never say. She had kept the people of the Grand Mistress, but without her, there was nothing she could do, and now, what she could rely on was the Lady Zeng, Madam, when the people of Grand Mistress leave, the house is indeed lacking in people, but I think that my mother still has some people, and it will be a bit hard on her for now, so when the matters are too clear, then it will be fine. Furthermore, the wet nurse in front of me can also help out.
The Lady Zeng frowned, "That is impossible, the people outside are worried, Marquis will not agree, let's not talk about this for now, I will discuss it with Marquis first."
Leaving the Lady Zeng to speak alone with the Senior Servant Liu, the Lady Zeng asked: "Did the manager lady say anything?" She was still brooding over the incident with the manager lady s last time, afraid that they had some sort of thought that they shouldn't have.
After all, this time the Grand Mistress is pregnant, so no one can do anything about it. "
Lady Zeng looked at her, "If there's anything you need to help them hide, as long as they do it well, I won't treat them unfairly. If they have any other thoughts, just come and tell me, it's my idea."
"I know, ma'am."
When Lady Zeng was worrying about the accounts room, Second Branch Young Madam Zou came. When she came, she even brought a young lady who looked unfamiliar. Lady Zeng looked at her for a long time but still could not recognize who she was, "Which family's young lady is she from, she looks like Zhou Zheng."
The girl looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old. She was slender, tall, slender, and had very deep and delicate features. She even had an exotic appearance.
Lady Zou pulled her over to pay her respects, "You haven't seen Marquis' Wife yet."
The young lady blended in with the Lady Zeng and mischievously called out to him, "Greetings Madam. I am Zou Ling. Madam can just call me Ling'er."
Lady Zou laughed and said, "You must be joking, Aunt. It's my sister from home, she only came a few days ago."
Lady Zeng sized her up a few more times, and the more she looked, the happier she got, "Ling'er, you seem to be a good match for this name, I really don't look like you at all."
This was the son of Lady Zou's mother and stepfather, who was also her half-sister. A few days ago, he came to the capital to seek help from the Lady Zou.
"He really doesn't look like one, but he's much better than me. He looks like a father a bit more, but his temper is a bit too wild. He's the child of a family member."
"It won't obstruct me." The Lady Zeng pulled Zou Ling's hand and sat down in front of him, "This little lady needs some spirit energy to please her. What's so interesting about keeping quiet, since I've come to the capital, I might as well come to my aunt's place. I don't have many people here, but it doesn't matter if I cause a ruckus for her."
"That's good. Otherwise, my sister would always despise me for talking too much. I'd rather come over and talk to my aunt." Zou Ling smiled and her dimples were very cute, after a few words, the Lady Zeng could not hide her smile and pulled her hand.
Lady Zou said from the side: "I heard that the Grand Mistress is very happy, I was planning to go over to take a look. This time, adding a grandson to the family would make it much more lively."
The Lady Zeng smiled as she paused for a moment, "The atmosphere is very lively, but once she gets pregnant, no one will be able to control the mess in the residence. I was just thinking of requesting for your help in the next few days, but I'm afraid you don't have the time."
She only got pregnant after entering the door for more than a year, so she must be very careful. Furthermore, your mother-in-law is a level away, so you should be more considerate towards her. As long as you have something on your mind, just call me over.
"Oh? "That's great. My house is currently lacking an account. Do you have anyone you trust to work here for a few days?"
"There's a ready-made one in the accounts room, and I brought it from home earlier. My parents are all elderly people in front of my mother, so you might have seen them before."
Even if they could not be used for a long time, they could temporarily replace her for a few days. After they found a suitable replacement for her, they could say, "Then it can't be any better, bring her to me for a look later, and if it is suitable, I will stay behind. Furthermore, your subordinates have also assigned a few people to instruct me for two days.
"Aunt, what are you talking about? I'm not as good as you are today. Most of my people are old people in front of my mother, and you've seen them all. Why are you being polite? You're not asking for money, are you?"
"You'll still be more considerate towards me. Just let it be so."
The Lady Zou came out from the main house and led Zou Ling over to visit Xie Jingxi. Zou Ling returned back to the big house like Marquis Mansion, she looked fresh and fresh everywhere, her intelligent eyes swiveling around, but she was only paying attention to what she was looking at, and did not do anything, instead the Lady Zou pulled her hand and warned her, "When we meet the Grand Mistress, don't be like this, she can't just let you act like a spoiled brat."
Zou Ling stuck out his tongue, "I got it, sister."
When the Lady Zou entered the courtyard, she had just bumped into Gu Yun, who had just returned to the residence. Gu Yun's brows knitted, and instinctively noticed the new face in front of the Lady Zou.
Seeing that he suddenly met a man, the smile on Zou Ling's face froze on her face, and he couldn't help but blush as he blessed Gu Yun with a body, "I've seen him … "Em, I've seen him before …"
"It's the Young Master Gu Lord."
"Oh, greetings to the Young Master Gu Lord."
Gu Yun looked at his for a moment, then nodded and left. He had originally planned to go see Xie Jingxi, but this time, it was inconvenient, so he turned and went to the study room.
It was not like Gu Yun did not bother with people for a day or two. Lady Zou was not surprised, but Zou Ling just stared at his back curiously.
"So this is the Young Master Gu Lord."
Lady Zou looked at her but did not say anything, "I told you to be more careful, quickly follow me in. Since Young Master is back, we can take a seat and leave."
When Xie Jingxi heard that the Lady Zou had arrived and had draped a piece of clothing over her shoulders, she whispered to her: "Miss, Eldest Young Master just came in and saw Young Madam Zou come over to the study room. Furthermore, Young Madam Zou seems to have brought a girl with her."
"Alright, I understand. Go and prepare some cold tea fruits."
When Xie Jingxi first saw Zou Ling, she liked her from the bottom of her heart, she was the type of girl who had good eyes. She was not like the first time she saw Fang Yu, she was clever and clever, but she knew that this girl had an idea, and was not easy to get close to. Although the two of them were about the same age, Zou Ling was more like a little sister at home.
"Screech!" "It's already in his memory." Lady Zou came over and helped her to sit down, "There's good news that I don't know about. When I did, I should have come to see you a long time ago, quickly sit down and stop standing. I'm not an outsider, why are you being so courteous to me."
"I don't even want to leave, let alone go out. I've only just gotten pregnant and everyone in my family knows it."
"It's good that you've settled down." Lady Zou looked at her stomach, "This should take more than four months, her stomach is really big now."
Imperial Physician Pei came here to see, and said that it's not a twin, it's also very strange. I don't have much food, but he's grown quite a bit inside, and he was worried that he wouldn't be able to grow up well in the future, so he told me to walk around for a bit. "
"You have to restrain yourself, or else you will suffer when you are born. It's a good thing that the child can be absorbed, so you can take care of it in peace." Lady Zou pulled Zou Ling over to introduce her, "This is my little sister, Zou Ling. She brought you over to let Aunt have a look, so you should also come over to greet Grand Mistress quickly."
"Zou Ling greets Grand Mistress."
Xie Jingxi sized her up, then smiled and nodded: "She is Zhou Zheng."
