Chapter 65 House thief
It was the first time for Yuan Shi to do a big thing independently, and she was a little bit lacking in confidence.
What kind of family is the Xie family? The lintel is noble and cannot be defiled. As the daughter of a general, she was already a hindrance to being able to marry into such a family as a clan wife.
If something happens during the banquet and the Xie family loses face, she will die.
Back to Fuyun Courtyard, Mrs. Yuan was well-conceived with a few words from Xie Zhiwei, and she couldn't help but think, where did all these ideas come from when her daughter is young?
She couldn't help sighing, and had to admit that the daughter of the Cui family and the Xie family was really extraordinary!
A ten-year-old girl from an ordinary family, not to mention such a big banquet, if you can arrange it for her in an orderly manner, you may not even be able to get together a breakfast.
Fortunately, she still wanted to bring her daughter to study with her, but luckily she didn't say it out loud!
Thinking of having a good staff officer in the future, Yuan Shi suddenly felt a heart that had been suspended for a long time, and finally fell into his stomach.
"Ma'am, listen, servant girl, what the eldest girl said just now is really kind, the eldest girl has an idea, and what is rare is that her idea is also very righteous." Tian Nanny came up and said.
"No, tell me, why is there such a big difference between this person and others? Think back then, when I was her age, what was I doing?" Yuan Shi thought about it and couldn't help shaking her head. Having such a daughter is pretty cool. hit people.
Xie Zhiwei used to be a queen, a small banquet is really nothing to her, and she can do it with a simple gesture, so of course she doesn't take it to heart.
Back to Yizhaoyuan alone, Xie Zhiwei ordered Yao Tao to grind and take out the Xiangyun paper she made a few days ago. She wanted to write a few posts and send them out to some friends in her boudoir.
According to the rules, Xie Zhiwei has four maidservants in front of her. Zi Mo and Yao Tao have served her since she was a child. When she grew up, cherries and pomegranates were arranged at home.
Yao Tao went to get the Xiangyun paper, but saw that the drawer was empty, so she couldn't help being stunned.
Seeing her standing still, Xie Zhiwei asked, "What's the matter? Who cast a hold spell?"
Yao Tao was about to cry, and at this moment, Ying Tao came forward, "Miss, the Xiangyun note was taken to the cousin by the order of the old lady, it has been a while, no wonder Yao Tao Sister Tao can’t remember.”
Yao Tao's eyes were wide open, she didn't know about this from beginning to end, where did she remember it?
However, in front of the master, Yao Tao couldn't tell the difference, so she had to lower her head, her eyes filled with tears.
Zi Mo is in charge of the girl's clothes and jewelry, and she is in charge of the girl's storeroom. Every piece of paper in this room is her responsibility. Right now, a large stack of incense and cloud paper is gone, and she didn't know it for several days.
Xie Zhiwei glanced at Cherry, and his face sank.
The fragrant cloud paper is a paper-making method that she saw in an ancient book when she was bored. She added some spices to it so that the paper would emit a fragrance after it was made. Then she collected some flower petals and crushed it into a Knead out the juice, make dye, add some glue, and then apply layer by layer on the paper, then stick it on the paper with absorbent hemp paper, press it layer by layer, and dry it in the shade. cloud note.
In the previous life, after her grandmother asked her to give all the fragrant cloud papers she made to Xue Wanqing, she then asked the maid to steal the method of making fragrant cloud papers to Xue Wanqing. Sending it away, for a while, Xue Wanqing's talent spread far and wide. As for her, she only said a few words in front of her grandmother, and then she was reprimanded by her grandmother, saying that she was just trying to gain fame, but she even wanted to take credit for her cousin, which was an insult to the Xie family.
"Girl, it's the servant's fault!" Yao Tao knelt down, the sound of her knee hitting the ground made Xie Zhiwei's teeth ache, isn't she afraid of breaking her knee?
"Where did you go wrong?"
"Slave, slave... Slave didn't realize that the Xiangyun paper was gone!" Yao Tao was about to cry.
Cherry laughed, "Sister Yaotao, what you said was originally ordered by the old lady. Is it possible that I still have to tell you and ask if you agree?"
Yao Tao was angry, "Cherry, this is Qizhaoyuan, even if it is an old lady, since it belongs to a girl, when you take it away, don't you even say a word?"
Xie Zhiwei sat behind the Huali marble desk, watched the two maids' lawsuit, couldn't help laughing angrily, and asked, "Cherry, I didn't know that grandma ordered you to do these things, besides those Xiangyun papers, you also took them?" What to give to the cousin girl?"
"The servant only took the Xiangyun paper, nothing else."
"Really? I remember that I wrote the method of making Xiangyun paper. I put it here, but it disappeared? Could it be that you also gave it to the cousin girl?"
"I never did!" Cherry's face turned pale instantly, and her whole body seemed to be swinging.
"Really? No?"
Xie Zhiwei's face was very dark, and he ordered Yao Tao, "Go and call Mother Qiu in, and just say that I have something to say."
Cherry knocked her head on the ground with a bang, "Miss, the paper with instructions was taken by the servant at the old lady's order, and I gave it to the cousin as well."
"I asked you just now, but you didn't say anything!" Xie Zhiwei glanced at the ground, his eyes were icy cold, "Although you were given by the old lady, you don't have to say that you were ordered by the old lady for everything." Although the old lady is a bit older, she is not so confused as to be a thief in my place."
Mother Qiu has already come in, she has heard the little girl tell about the situation here, and she can't help being angry, "It's not bad to be a thief in the master's house, if you can steal a few pieces of paper today, you can dare to steal it tomorrow." The master's handkerchief and clothes are stolen, do you want the master's life?"
"The servants are all ordered by the old lady!" Cherry cried.
Pomegranate stood outside the door, holding her hands tightly together. She lowered her head, unable to stand still, and slipped straight to the ground.
That day, when Cherry was about to take out the master's things, she persuaded Cherry, since she was working in the master's house, it is better to obey the master in everything, who knows, Cherry said that the master can't even keep the mother's dowry Hold on, a few pieces of paper, just take it.
She and Cherry are the sons of the same family in the mansion, and they are aunts and sisters. They grew up together since they were young. Because their mothers both work in the old lady's house, they were picked to work for the eldest girl.
This is the best job. Serving in the girl's house, I don't have to do coolies in my spare time. The girl has a good personality and never teases others. In the future, when the girl leaves the cabinet, they will be the girl's big maids, or they will stay to win over the aunt and become a concubine, or they will marry the steward and become the housekeeper's wife. These are all excellent ways out.
Second update!
