"I just went to deliver some of the bird's nest porridge I stewed to Master Hou. I didn't manage to receive Madam in time, I hope Madam can forgive me." Halfway through their conversation, the Concubine Fang hurried over.
Xie Wanqing lived in the same courtyard as her. Naturally, Madame Ye wanted to pay Xie Wanqing a visit. Furthermore, she could not just sit by and watch Xie Wanqing get closer to the Madame Ye.
"Aunt!" When Xie Wanqing saw Concubine Fang coming in, she stood up happily and pulled her hand.
The Concubine Fang caressed the top of her head affectionately: "Did Ye Qing listen to the Madam? She didn't make the Madam angry, did she?"
"No, Xianqing is very obedient." Xie Wanqing smiled at her sweetly.
Seeing the two of them being so close, Madame Ye felt a bit disappointed for some reason. But then she thought, Xie Wanqing was a child born in Concubine Fang in October, so it was natural for them to be intimate.
Thinking about it this way, it would be able to dispel the disappointment in her heart a little.
"You should be happy that you're so obedient." The Madame Ye praised.
Concubine Fang smiled and nodded: "I heard that Madam brought a new batch of servants over?"
Xie Wanqing knew very well that her Concubine Fang would not be willing to let all of the chess pieces that had been buried by her side all these years be removed by her in an instant.
"Yes."
"Yanqing is still young, so it's hard for new servants to take care of her. Why don't you hand her over to my courtyard and teach her for a period of time, then send her over after the tutoring is done?" The Concubine Fang seemed to think of everything for Xie Wanqing.
"I'm taking away the servant that was originally in the yard. If you do as you say, then who's going to take care of her?" Madame Ye asked.
Concubine Fang had already thought about it and said quickly: "I will temporarily transfer my servants in the courtyard to be used by Xiqing. Those people are all old people, they have served me for so many years, they would definitely not dare to be lazy."
When the Madame Ye heard her words, she thought about it carefully.
Xie Wanqing was the biological daughter of the Concubine Fang, which was why she was willing to call over the old man she was used to using. Although the people that the Madame Ye had brought over were carefully selected, those people were either working in other courtyards or were newly sent into the Palace. They had just been trained by the Mama and had not taken care of the Young Miss in the Palace.
There was nothing bad about being taught by the Concubine Fang for a period of time. Since Xie Wanqing was her biological daughter, she believed that Concubine Fang would definitely teach him wholeheartedly.
Seeing that Madame Ye was about to agree, Xie Wanqing hurriedly said, "Your daughter doesn't agree."
When she was sent to the Concubine Fang to train for a few months, who knows how many people would become her pawns. At that time, it would be no different from nothing if she changed them.
Ever since Xie Wanqing was reborn, she had been constantly monitoring her from within the courtyard. It had been extremely difficult for him to endure until now, and the Madame Ye wanted to give her a change to clean up her underlings. This was a unique chance to clean up Concubine Fang's eyes. Xie Wanqing naturally had to firmly grasp it, so she absolutely could not let Concubine Fang succeed.
Hearing that, both Madame Ye and Concubine Fang turned to look at her. Although they were discussing about the servants in her courtyard, they did not plan to get her permission.
Xie Wanqing was only seven years old, and her recent behavior was clever and obedient, not a bit as sharp as Xie Wanyun's. So they both treated her like a child. Now that she suddenly interrupted them, they couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
Concubine Fang became even more vigilant. She had already noticed that Xie Wanqing was different from before. Recently, she had avoided her traps time and time again.
Sure enough, Xie Wanqing opened her small mouth and said: "Since it's someone Mother has picked, then daughter will definitely be able to use it. Otherwise, her mother wouldn't have sent it over. Even if some people bully their daughters because they want to be lazy and play tricks, their daughters still have to learn how to discipline them. Master can't be bullied by a servant. "
Her words were reasonable, but if Concubine Fang refuted her, that meant the person Madame Ye chose could not be used.
Before Concubine Fang even had a chance to speak, she spoke out first: "You're only seven years old, isn't it a bit too early to be learning to discipline servants right now?"
She was truly worried for Xie Wanqing. It would be the best if someone could teach this servant properly before sending him over. She did not expect Xie Wanqing to learn to read the words and look the color of the people, and put up the airs of a young lady to control the people, Madame Ye always hoped that Xie Wanqing's childhood would be carefree and carefree.
Xie Wanqing naturally knew what the Madame Ye was thinking.
However, the Madame Ye had never thought that, in such a large Marquis Anyang's Mansion, would there really be someone who could so innocently grow up? Her eldest son had died early on, and she didn't know that someone had changed the identity of Direct Daughter. She hadn't gotten pregnant in all these years, and Xie Kai's other concubines didn't have any children either. With so many things pressed together, only Xie Wanqing knew the truth, and she felt suffocated from the pressure.
She had to remove the curtain that covered the truth and let it see the light again. Why else would she be reborn? So please forgive her for not being able to live like a child like Madame Ye had imagined.
"Mother, I have to grow up to be a good student. If I don't learn now, it will only become harder and harder to learn in the future." Xie Wanqing said with a serious face that was like a little kid's.
Madame Ye felt that she seemed to have understood a lot now, and for some reason, there were tears in her eyes.
Seeing that the Madame Ye was about to be persuaded, she hurriedly interrupted, "Sanguine Qing is currently in the academy everyday and needs to accompany the old mistress. She needs to pay respects to the Marquis and the Mistress, how can she possibly have time to care about matters in the courtyard?"
"Aunt." Xie Wanqing pulled Concubine Fang's sleeve and said coquettishly, "Aunt will let Wanqing try. "Besides, Xianqing doesn't want to make Aunt suffer. Since it's someone from Xianqing's courtyard, it's only right that she should manage it herself. Otherwise, what if they don't listen to me when the time comes?"
These words reminded Madame Ye that she was the one who taught her people well in order to use her heart. If at that time, it was really as Xie Wanqing had said, some servants would only listen to their concubines and not her, wouldn't the gains make up for the losses?
Therefore, she said firmly, "Since that's the case, you can take care of it." After thinking for a while, he continued, "I will have Mama Ning come over later to take care of you and take care of you for a while. Stay here and teach her a lesson, then bring her back. "
"Thank you, mother." Xie Wanqing said excitedly as she turned to Madame Ye.
Originally, she was worried that she only had Mama Feng, Yue Xin and Xiao Nian in her courtyard. Although it was easy to use, Mama Feng was kind and kind, too soft and easy to talk to. Yue Xin was steady, calm and intelligent, but she would always stay by her side, naturally she would not constantly supervise the movements of the servants in the courtyard.
