On the night of returning home, although Xiao Yeyang repeatedly promised Daohua not to go too far, the next day, Daohua still couldn't get out of bed until noon.

"Where's that liar Xiao Yeyang?"

Daohua took a bath for a while and felt better.

Wang Man'er put the food on the table and said, "My uncle has gone out in the morning. He looks so lucky, so there must be something wrong."

Daohua didn't ask any more questions after hearing this. It was almost the New Year's Eve, and it was the busiest time when things happened the most. It was not surprising that Xiao Yeyang was taken away.

After lunch, Daohua visited Pingxi Hall again. While walking to eat, she also took a look at how the servants worked here.

Wang Man'er whispered about the news she had learned in the past two days: "The princess arranged for many old people from the palace to come to Pingxi Hall as errands, and many of them are very slick."

Daohua sneered: "The servant is just to serve the master. How can he feel different just because he has stayed in the palace for a few more years? If he can't satisfy the master, what will he do?"

Wang Man'er added: "Concubine Jiang may have arranged for some people. Yesterday when the girl returned home, Li Xia saw the maid and Concubine Jiang standing together in the yard and talking for a long time."

Daohua said "hmm" and said nothing. She continued to walk around. Every time she went to a place, she silently calculated how many servants were needed to take care of it.

After returning to the house, Daohua looked at Wang Maner: "Have all the maids and servants in Pingxi Hall been sorted out?"

Wang Man'er looked ashamed: "I am incompetent. I haven't been able to ask everyone the questions yet."

There is nothing unexpected about Daohua. She is a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister. Many of these servants who work in the palace will feel superior to others. The Yan family's family status is not obvious. In addition, there are the support of Princess Ma, Jiang Fangfei and the like behind her, so they naturally despise her leadership.

There are servants from the Yan family who came here.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard Gu Yu's exclamation coming from outside the house.

"Grandma, why are you here?"

Luo Qiong joked: "Why, can't I come?"

"That's not what I mean. Please wait a moment. I will go into the house and inform my girl." Gu Yu glanced at the maid who had not informed her beforehand, and walked quickly into the house with lowered eyelids.

As soon as he entered the room, Wang Man'er asked: "What's going on? The grandma has not been informed until she has entered the hospital."

Gu Yu did not defend himself, but directly admitted his mistake: "I was negligent."

Daohua didn't pursue it: "Don't talk about it now." After saying that, she straightened her appearance and went to the outside room with a smile. She looked at Luo Qiong who was sitting in the living room drinking tea and asked with a smile: "Sister-in-law is here, Ping.

Xitang is really full of brilliance."

Luo Qiong put down the tea cup, looked at the pink-faced spring, delicate and bright rice flowers, and said with a smile: "I thought my younger siblings wouldn't welcome me."

Daohua's smile did not change: "What are you saying, sister-in-law? Just like if I go to Chenyuan, sister-in-law won't welcome me?"

Luo Qiong's eyes flashed and she said with a smile: "Of course I will welcome you."

Daohua sat down on the main seat, with a polite and distant smile on her face, and without saying any greetings, she asked straight to the point: "Sister-in-law, come here, but what are your orders?"

Seeing her being so direct, Luo Qiong's eyes flickered again. After thinking about it, she felt that it was right. Considering the bad relationship between her husband and Xiao Yeyang, there was really no need for them to be pretentious anymore.

"My mother asked me to come here."

The smile on Daohua's face faded a little: "Princess? Princess has to take care of the affairs of the palace on weekdays. She is very busy and tired. Unexpectedly, she still wants to ask about Ping Xitang's affairs. She is so energetic."
p>

The corner of Luo Qiong's mouth twitched. Sure enough, it's true that one family doesn't want to enter the same house. Yan Yiyi and Xiao Yeyang are really the same. They talk with guns and sticks, and almost directly say that the mother and concubine are meddling in other people's business.

"The mother-in-law is the mistress of the palace, and it is her right to know everything in the palace."

The word ‘everything’ is particularly emphasized.

Daohua picked up the tea cup with a half-smile, and sipped the tea slowly without answering Luo Qiong's words.

Looking at the sneer on the corner of Daohua's mouth, Luo Qiong frowned in displeasure. She found that Yan Yiyi was really good at irritating people. She didn't have the dignity of being a woman from an orthodox family at all.

magnanimity.

Save face?

Daohua sneered, they are already mortal enemies. Saving face for the enemy is only causing trouble for oneself.

Luo Qiong didn't want to just sit there, so she could only take the initiative to talk: "I heard that my brother and sister slept until noon today. These newlyweds are really inseparable."

Hearing this, a coldness flashed in Daohua's eyes, but she pretended to be shy and said: "My sister-in-law is from here, why are you making fun of me? Wasn't it the same thing when my sister-in-law married into the palace?"

Luo Qiong was choked. She really didn't expect Daohua to respond so...boldly.

Was she like this when she got married?

Of course not.

Not to mention sleeping until midnight, she had to get up early the next day to serve Princess Ma.

After such a comparison, Luo Qiong felt unbalanced. Looking at Daohua, whose face was full of beauty and happiness, she felt that it was an eyesore. She didn't want to talk to her anymore and said directly: "Fourth sister has returned home after three moves. Mother and concubine."

Said, from today on, you should go over and check her morning and evening hours."

Daohua looked at Luo Qiong in astonishment and blurted out: "Princess has a fever?"

The corners of Luo Qiong's mouth twitched again and she stood up: "I have already passed on what my mother and concubine asked me to pass on. It's up to the second younger brother and sister to decide how to do it. I won't disturb the second younger sister and I will leave."

When Luo Qiong left the room, Daohua put the tea cup in her hand on the table with a bang, and looked at Wang Man'er: "In three days, count all the servants working in Pingxi Hall for me, and ignore them.

It’s a matter of personnel matters.”

She decided not to keep any of these servants.

Wang Man'er looked at Daohua and knew that Daohua was angry. The eldest grandma came over without announcing it in advance, and the news that the girl got up late was also spread.

Even she was very angry about this.

Wang Man'er turned around and stepped back, quickly counting the number of servants.

Later, Daohua asked Bishi to call Qin Xiaoliu.

"Before, I asked you to select maids and wives from various villages and teach them the rules and etiquette. How did it go?"

Ever since the emperor decreed the marriage, Daohua asked Qin Xiaoliu to start doing this. She also specially invited a nanny from the palace who specialized in training maids of wealthy families to go to the village for training.
p>

Qin Xiaoliu: "Girl, I have taught you almost all the rules and etiquette, but these maids have limited knowledge. After being taught for so long, they can only do menial work."

Daohua: "It doesn't matter, as long as the people are sincere." What she wants is not capable management talents, as long as these people follow the rules she set and work well in their positions.

"Go and prepare. In two days, I may have to let these people work as errands in the house."

Qin Xiaoliu raised his eyes and looked at Daohua, feeling a little worried.

The girl has just married into the palace, and there is a big change of marriage. Is this okay?

Daohua originally didn't want to replace everyone, but what happened today reminded her.

Now that she is married to Xiao Yeyang, Pingxi Hall is her home. She does not allow her home to be spied on by outsiders, and what happens at home to be leaked to the outside world at will.

I originally thought about replacing it slowly, but now I think about it, this is too slow.

She doesn't have extra energy to waste on these inconsequential fights in the back house. She has more important things to do.

We need to be busy getting along with Xiao Yeyang, getting familiar with his living habits, and deepening our relationship;

To be busy with Prince Ping, Xiao Yeyang's mother established a good relationship and even managed to draw them into a relationship with Xiao Yeyang;

You also have to deal with a group of royal family members. Even if you don’t have close friendships, you should know their likes and taboos well, so as not to be deceived or offend others.

All of these are much more important than fighting in the ring with the woman in the royal palace.

In this way, for Pingxitang, which is like a sieve and has been deployed with several people, it is better to cut the knot with a quick knife and directly replace all the servants, so as to get rid of it once and for all.

Daohua snorted coldly when she thought of Princess Ma asking her to help her with morning and dusk adjustments. She had no reason to speak.

That night, Xiao Yeyang came back after dark.

Daohua first asked someone to fetch him water to wash up, and then asked him to serve food.

"It's so late and you haven't eaten yet?" Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua who sat down with him in surprise.

Daohua smiled and said: "I have to wait for you to come back and eat with you."

Xiao Yeyang held Daohua's hand: "Don't wait for me in the future. If you get hungry, I will feel bad."

Daohua: "I'm not hungry, I just had some snacks."

Xiao Yeyang looked at the hot meal and then at Daohua who was with him. His eyes were filled with smiles. He finally didn't have to eat alone.

During the meal, Daohua told Xiao Yeyang that she wanted to change the servants of Pingxi Hall.

Xiao Yeyang said directly: "You are the mistress of Pingxi Hall. You have the final say in everything here."

Daohua smiled and talked to Xiao Yeyang in detail about training the maid and mother-in-law.

A home belongs to two people. It requires a wife and husband to build and run it together. They need to discuss and discuss problems. They can not only think of solutions together, but also enhance their relationship by solving problems together.

She will not be the kind of wife who pays silently and keeps silent. In the end, her husband will take it for granted and think that everything his wife does is taken for granted.

Of course, Daohua did not elaborate on the specific details and process of the replacement. This is a problem that she should solve.

Xiao Yeyang held up a world for her outside and would not be bullied by others. She should build a warm and comfortable home for him.
