"Speaking of which, she is also a poor person." Mr. Luo put down the teacup in his hand and said in a calm tone. The poor person Mr. Luo mentioned was naturally Aunt Wei. "She is said to be a girl from the Earl's Palace, but she almost died.

After losing the fifth server, my family had no way to survive, so I had to rely on the Earl's Mansion.

She was barely able to have enough food and clothing. Her mother and I were not up to par. Even when they met a decent steward in the Earl's Mansion, her parents had to be humble. She and the ninth girl of the Earl's Mansion were sisters on the surface, but in front of the ninth girl

, she is no more than a girl."

What Lao said was true, and Liu Ruosi had heard it before. But what Lao said today in front of everyone seemed to have a lot of meaning.

"However, if she tries her best, with the reputation of Earl's Mansion, she will be able to get ahead." Sure enough, Lao said this again right after.

Aunt Wei was reduced to being an aunt, largely because of her own lack of respect. In this regard, Aunt Wei is not worthy of sympathy.

"There is another benefit to being an aunt." Mr. Lao suddenly changed the topic, "Third Madam, I am not afraid to tell you. When Aunt Wei came in, she only had a few tattered boxes, which were the clothes she brought with her.

If she were to be married to a matchmaker, I'm afraid she wouldn't be so frugal. Although the things she brought are good, in order to welcome her in, she had to carry a total of three thousand taels of silver from me." Mr. Lao told Liu Ruo.

Si made a gesture.

Liu Ruosi was slightly surprised. She had already guessed that Aunt Wei would not have any dowry, but Lao's family actually gave Aunt Wei three thousand taels of silver. She had never heard of this before.

"We were asked to carry the money over there, and we were specifically told not to tell anyone. The money was carried over there avoiding people. However, I do keep the receipt signed by her parents." Mrs. Lao saw Liu.

Ruosi was surprised and guessed what Liu Ruosi was thinking, and then explained.

"Such a thing could happen." Liu Ruosi sighed.

"Who made her the second master's beloved? Now that they have spoken, how can I begrudge those few taels of silver? They value those coins more than the sky. What does it mean to us here?" Lao Lao

Shi sneered, "There's something else you can't think of..."

Lao's conversation today was very sexual, and it seemed that she had been holding back her words for a long time. In the past, because Rong Chengxiang still doted on Aunt Wei, she kept it secret. Now, Lao has no taboo.

"Is there anything more surprising than this?" Liu Ruosi asked.

"Since she entered the house, everything she wears on her body and on her head has been replaced by gifts from the second master and me. Although she hid it from me, I know that she sent many things back to her parents' home." Lao Shi said with a mocking look on his face.

, "That's all. Her mother and her brother came to visit a few times. It's just a normal visit.

Every time, she would say that there was something going on at home, and she would not go back until she had taken the money. It has only been nearly half a year, and she has moved hundreds of taels of silver back home." "As for her father and brothers outside, how are they doing?

It’s hard for us to know how to flatter the second master and ask for money.”

Lao Shi seemed to be chatting with Liu Ruosi, but he did not shy away from the people serving in the house. Today there were many people waiting in Lao Shi's house and at the door. After hearing what Lao Shi said, there were many girls and daughters-in-law.

There was a look of disdain on his face.

These things, especially the matter of the three thousand taels of silver, are not known to everyone even in the courtyard of the Lao family. But from now on, I am afraid that no one in the palace will not know about it. Aunt Wei will do this in the future.

The situation is self-evident.

The other girls were still disdainful, and Chunxiu's face was not only disdainful, but also a little indignant.

"My wife is just too kind-hearted. She is like a mountain of gold and silver. There is no way I can tolerate her moving like this. She is also too thick-skinned. I thought she would be more respectable than my maid. But she turns out to be such a shameless thing. My maid is even more shameless."

Even with her, she still has status and dignity.”…

"I was talking to the Third Madam, who asked you to speak?" Lao Shi glanced at Chunxiu.

Chunxiu was startled and immediately lowered her head and did not dare to speak.

"You don't need to serve here anymore, you can go down first." Mr. Lao was not very harsh to Chunxiu, he just said calmly.

Chunxiu hurriedly bowed and retired, and Lao dismissed most of the girls and wives in the house, leaving only a few confidants to serve around him.

"You went to see the Crown Princess today. How is the Crown Princess doing?" Mr. Lao asked Liu Ruosi.

"She seems to be more energetic." Liu Ruosi told Lao Shi, "It's rare that she invited me in and said a few words to me. I've been here since I came, and I'm afraid that what the Crown Princess said to me this time will be worse than before.

It’s a lot more in the past few months combined.”

"It's no wonder, now you can be regarded as her savior. No matter what she does, she can't take care of you like she did in the past." Lao Shi said, "She treats you like this, which is pretty good, but I have never had anything to say about it.

of."

"When the second sister-in-law came in, was she like this?" Liu Ruosi asked.

"At that time, things were better than they are now. Then I got seriously ill twice, and it became what it is now." Mr. Lao said, "The Crown Princess is well, and we are all happy, but some people may feel uncomfortable.

"

Liu Ruosi and Lao Shi exchanged a look, and both of them couldn't help but smile.

"I know our second master's temper, but he doesn't have such courage. The reason..." After laughing, Lao lowered his eyes and snorted softly, "If someone hadn't planned it, how could there be any

…”

Mr. Luo didn't make his words too clear, but for Mr. Luo to talk to Liu Ruosi to this extent about this matter, it can be regarded as a heartbreaking act. As for the matter of Rong Chengxiang and Aunt Wei, Liu Ruosi knew

It was Lao's pain point, so he would never mention it to Lao, let alone ask about it. But Lao said it himself, and Liu Ruosi was willing to listen.

"You still don't know that one time she came to see me and actually said that you had meddles in that incident." Lao told Liu Ruosi again.

"She actually confuses right and wrong like this." Liu Ruosi looked surprised, but then she smiled with relief, "I'm afraid her tricks won't fool the second sister-in-law."

"But, I really thought I was a three-year-old child, and she could have concealed it with just one or two words. As long as I think about it, I know it is impossible. You were a guest at the beginning, and you have only been to the palace a few times. What should you do?

But she had a guilty conscience. So the thief shouted to catch the thief, but there was no three hundred taels of silver in this place."

"Thanks to the Marquis for reminding me at the beginning. Otherwise, I would still be in the dream." Lao Shi said to Liu Ruosi again.

"Oh." Liu Ruosi said, her heart moved. Rong Chenghan reminded Lao. Why didn't she know when it happened? Although Liu Ruosi was confused, she refused to show it on her face.

.No matter what, Lowe stands with her now

, it seems that part of it must be attributed to Rong Chenghan. Otherwise, even if Mr. Lao is smart, he will inevitably be deceived by Su Qingnuan for a while. Even if Su Qingnuan cannot completely deceive Mr. Lao, I am afraid that Mr. Lao will still be suspicious of her.

.It is also difficult for the two of them to get along like they are now.

Recalling all the help Lao had given her when she first entered the mansion, Liu Ruosi secretly wondered if she should treat Rong Chenghan better.

Mr. Lao confided this concern to Liu Ruosi, and the two became much closer.

"That Chunxiu girl just now was quite good looking, but she looked very strange." Liu Ruosi asked Lao Shi with a smile.

"I don't blame you for being jealous, she is not a girl from the house." Mrs. Lao did not hide anything from Liu Ruosi, so she told Liu Ruosi that Chunxiu was a girl from the village. She came up with her parents to deliver things a few days ago.

It happened that Mr. Lao saw Chunxiu. Mr. Lao kept Chunxiu and arranged for his confidant's mother-in-law to teach him. She dressed up carefully and arranged to serve him in his house.

There is no need to go into details about what happened after that.

Rong Chengxiang accepted Chunxiu, and the Lao family gave Chunxiu a lot of rewards, and she became the eldest daughter of his wife. Rong Chengxiang had a new favorite, and he became increasingly indifferent to Aunt Wei.

In this way, Lao quietly solved Aunt Wei, a big problem that might be very difficult to solve in the eyes of others, and never brought any negative criticism to herself. Liu Ruosi knew that there were several passers-by around Rong Chengxiang.

The concubines served in the house, but they were getting older and their appearance was declining, and they could not compete with Aunt Wei for favor. Until Lao discovered Chunxiu.

When Liu Ruosi returned to Yunshui Residence from Xuanhua Residence, she felt quite touched.

"This second wife is more skillful than the third wife in our house." Aunt Chang came in with a bowl of cheese and offered it to Liu Ruosi, and said softly from the side.

"The third wife has a hotter temper, and her relationship with the third master is deeper." Liu Ruosi nodded. Moreover, the environment in the Liu Mansion is more relaxed than that of the Prince's Mansion, so although Mrs. Liu's methods are not as good as Lao's, she still

But he lived a more carefree life. It can be said that Lowe used such methods as a last resort.

"That Aunt Wei, you haven't had a good life for a few days, I'm afraid that in the future..." The master and servant talked about Aunt Wei again, and Aunt Chang sighed and shook her head.

"Men are always unreliable," Liu Ruosi said. According to Liu Ruosi's knowledge, when Aunt Wei first came in, Rong Chengxiang treated Aunt Wei as his darling, and even had the attitude of spoiling his concubine and destroying his wife.

.But it didn’t take long for the freshness to pass away. After Rong Chengxiang got a newcomer, he left Aunt Wei behind.

"It all depends on who you are." Seeing what Liu Ruosi said, Grandma Chang didn't dare to agree, so she quickly persuaded Liu Ruosi with a smile, "For example, the master. The master and his wife have been popular for so many years, but they have never become popular.

Hu Jing has a bad face. The house of the master and his wife is so clean, thanks to the master’s deep affection for his wife and his strong will."

"That's true." Liu Ruosi nodded, "But there are only a few people like my father in this world."

"Others may not be so lucky, but from what I see, the Marquis is very good." Aunt Chang hurriedly put in good words for Rong Chenghan to bring the couple together. "It's just that no matter how good the Marquis is, my wife should be more considerate.

Mr. Marquis. Just like the master and his wife. If the wife doesn't like the master, she will always fight with him. No matter how firm the master is, I'm afraid it won't be the same as it is now."

The implication of Grandma Chang was that she wanted Liu Ruosi to cultivate her relationship with Rong Chenghan.

"Mommy, if she hadn't been by my side all the time, I would sometimes have doubts. I felt that she was not my grandma, but rather the grandma of some prince." Liu Ruosi glanced at Chang Ma.

Mom, she said with a half-smile.

Of course Liu Ruosi was joking, and even meant to be coquettish with her nanny. Aunt Chang naturally knew it and was just laughing beside her.

"What are you talking about me?" At this moment, the door curtain was raised, and Rong Chenghan walked in without knowing when.

"You came back so early today? Why didn't the girls outside tell you?" Liu Ruosi asked, standing up to welcome Rong Chenghan in, and personally brought a homely robe to change for Rong Chenghan. Aunt Chang asked.

With a smile on her face, she took the girls to prepare tea and fruit. Although Liu Ruosi had a tough talk, she listened to her words of persuasion.

"I have nothing to do today, so I came back early." Rong Chenghan changed his robe and sat on the couch, with a very comfortable expression on his face. Liu Ruosi's thoughtfulness made Rong Chenghan feel very at ease. "I know you are here.

No one reported it in the house, look what you did when I wasn't at home."

"What can I do?" Liu Ruosi glared at Rong Chenghan, then took the tea cup brought by June and gave it to Rong Chenghan herself.

Aunt Chang and the others immediately retreated to the door. Liu Ruosi looked like she wanted to say something personal to Rong Chenghan.

Liu Ruosi briefly asked Rong Chenghan and found out that Rong Chenghan had nothing to do outside, so she told Rong Chenghan that she went to Lao's for tea.
