Chapter 951 Self-Knowledge
As soon as Grandma Sun heard what Lianyi said, she looked at Grandma Zhen who was standing respectfully next to Lianyi. She wanted to say something else, and Grandma Zhen spoke:
"Mother Sun, the young lady's belly is getting bigger and bigger. Don't let her worry about this kind of thing. I will definitely do my best when I am sent to take care of the young lady. You don't have to worry."
Grandma Sun looked back and saw that Lianyi was just petting the cat and did not refute what Grandma Zhen said. Her heart thumped, but she did not dare to say anything more. She could only bow respectfully and went out.
Lianyi then turned to Grandma Zhen and said:
"Aunt Zhen, even if Aunt Sun is back now, you still have the final say on matters in my yard."
"I know that as long as the young lady can take care of her baby, I will take care of the rest."
Aunt Zhen speaks very measuredly.
"Originally, family scandals should not be made public, but you are all important people around me. There are some things I feel the need to tell you."
Ripple said while stroking Xuanfeng.
Aunt Zhen and Mei Zhi both acted as if they were all ears.
"My nanny left early, and there was a personal maid named Yingying beside me. But on the day I got married, Yingying was gone, and it was very strange that she was still there.
I only found out about this when I returned home. Originally, Cherry was my dowry maid and my eldest maid.
It was also because the cherries were gone that my mother gave me the plum branch. As for the remaining maids in the yard, they were all trained by Grandma Sun, but I don’t have the deeds of Grandma Sun. "
Lianyi's words were not very clear, but Grandma Zhen understood immediately.
This is because Mrs. Anding Hou wanted to control her married daughter. She was afraid that her daughter would be out of control, so she did not deed Grandma Sun's body to the young lady. Moreover, Grandma Sun's family must have stayed in the Hou Mansion, so she would not be afraid of her daughter. Mammy would betray her.
But the more this happens, the less Madam Sun will reuse her. No one wants to live a life controlled by others. Saying these words to her is also an indirect statement to Madam Lin. She is the daughter-in-law of the Lin family and has always been the wife of the Lin family. They are all towards the husband’s family.
Although she didn’t know what the discord was between the Young Madam and Madam Hou, it didn’t stop her from conveying her words and showing her loyalty, so Grandma Zhen immediately said:
"Young madam, don't think too much. You are not alone now. We servants will definitely not be able to get past the master. Anyone who the madam finds useful can be used, and those who are not pleasing to the eye can be transferred far away.
In the next two days, a group of older servants will be released from the mansion, and the housekeeper will be purchasing new servants. The young lady can personally select one or two lovable servants to take with her. "
"What Aunt Zhen said makes sense. I really need to choose a few people. After the child is born, there will be at least three wet nurses. We also need to train maids and servants for the child. All these must be prepared early.
I was so stupid after being pregnant for three years. How could I forget such a big thing? Fortunately, my grandma reminded me. "
Talking to smart people will save trouble. I believe those servants who followed from the Hou Mansion will be transferred soon.
"It is the duty of the old slave to share the worries of the young lady."
Grandma Zhen said immediately.
Mei Zhi on the other side did not speak, but he also understood what Lianyi meant. The young lady was planning to replace all the people in the yard before she gave birth, at least to those who were loyal to the young lady.
She had already expressed her loyalty once and was not willing to become Lin Yaozu's concubine, so she was confident that she would be kept.
Sure enough, three days later, the housekeeper came with a group of people for Rianyi to choose. According to her identity standards, Rianyi selected ten people, including two families of eight, and replaced all those who were married to Mrs. Hou.
Lianyi gave them a few responsible people and let them redeem themselves. She sold out the other servants who acted as ears and eyes, and dealt with them neatly.
Mei Zhi was left behind and was still Lianyi's maid. Grandma Sun was spared because her body contract was not in Lianyi's hands, but her face was extremely pale.
Aunt Zhen also changed from the temporary manager to the real powerful one in Lianyi's courtyard. After a big change of blood, Aunt Sun was sidelined and she could only live with her tail between her legs. But even so, one day she I still fell down early in the morning and broke my pelvis, so I could only lie in bed to recuperate.
After hearing the news, Lianyi said with a little heartache:
"Why is Grandma Sun so careless? She comes to serve me. I am prepared to provide for her in her old age."
"Young Madam, it will take a hundred days to break your muscles and bones. The maids and women in the yard are all serving you. If you ask them to serve Grandma Sun, I'm afraid that they won't do their best and will harm Young Madam's reputation. "
Grandma Zhen said immediately.
"What mama said is, do you have any good suggestions?"
Ripple asked deliberately.
"Young madam, no one can take care of me as comfortably as my family. I think it would be better to send Grandma Sun home to recuperate. If you add some money, it will not only improve the relationship between master and servant, but also allow Grandma Sun to be with her." Wouldn’t it be better if the family is reunited?”
"Aunt Zhen is very considerate, so I will do as you said and send a hundred taels of silver to Aunt Sun. It should come out of my private room and do not go into the public account."
Lianyi ordered with a smile.
"Yes, I'll do it now, old slave."
Grandma Zhen took the banknote handed over by Mei Zhi and led the people to the servants' room.
Tornado sent a message to Lianyi:
"That grandma Sun fell on purpose, no one framed her."
"She is very self-aware and left me in this way, so that Mrs. Hou will not blame her when she goes back, but will only put the blame on me."
Ripple touched Tornado's head and said.
"As long as you know what's going on."
Xuanfeng saw that Ripple didn't care, so he didn't say anything more.
When Mrs. Hou knew that Nanny Sun was brought back, she knew that this was Rianyi expressing her dissatisfaction with her. What could she say? Most of the servants she arranged to enter the Shangshu Mansion had been replaced by Ripple. Now the eldest daughter has completely Out of her control.
Mrs. Hou wanted to ease her relationship with Lianyi, so she sent someone to deliver a message to Shangshu Mansion, and wanted to see her eldest daughter, but she was declined.
In the end, even Mrs. Lin took action. She made it very clear that her daughter-in-law was pregnant with twins, and there was a risk of premature birth. The older she got, the more inconvenient it was for her to go out. Recently, she kept them in her own yard, neither going out nor seeing guests. , If Mrs. Hou feels sorry for her daughter, don't go through such trouble.
Mrs. Hou was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she could only agree with frustration, because the good news she wanted to wait for never came. The eldest daughter's belly was very stable, and she was about to give birth. She could only stop and never give birth again. Annoying ripples.
Mrs. Hou held her breath and wanted to wait until Lianyi gave birth before taking action, just like in her previous life, except that this time Xue Lianyi was not pregnant and there was no child to replace her.
Another month later, after Lianyi determined the auspicious time, she was ready to unload the goods. She had raised her two children well and it was time for them to be born.
After breakfast, Lianyi was supported by Granny Zhen and Mei Zhi and walked around the yard. Then she touched her belly and said:
"I think I'm going to give birth."
