"Yes." Jiang Ruohua nodded, "From now on she will be ours."
Yin Qiu was a little surprised, but soon figured out the reason: "Young lady is very smart. She even noticed such details. I admire you."
Hearing the compliment, Jiang Ruohua was helpless: "It's not that I'm smart. I just wanted to make a good impression in front of the servants and let them know that the master is kind to the servants and will not destroy the servants' lives for the slightest thing."
Servants are also human beings. It doesn't mean that they can sit back and relax with a contract of sale in hand. Even rabbits will bite when they are cornered. Servants should be treated with both kindness and severity, and a certain degree of kindness should be retained. The rules are strict, but the master is kind, and the servants are alert to the rules. At the same time, they are willing to work hard for the kind master.
She originally just wanted to seize this opportunity to show off a little. First, she wanted to use Mr. Jiang San to make the Third Madam handle this matter imperfectly. Second, she wanted to quietly step on the Third Madam to gain some reputation for herself, so that she could recruit more servants to her own.
Xiaoxiang's mother was indeed an unexpected situation, but it was also a pleasant surprise.
"That young lady is also very capable." Yinqiu smiled, and was really happy for Jiang Ruohua. "The Third Madam used to be very capable. Suddenly, such a small matter was not handled well, and the young lady took advantage of it. I'm afraid the servants will change their tone all of a sudden!"
This is of course not unreasonable, but Jiang Ruohua has not taken power in her hands after all. In such a large Duke's Mansion, she is still not the one who can make the decision.
But don't worry, one day the Third Lady will lose the support and protection of her servants, and all of them will turn to her side. The ugly faces of this family will be exposed to everyone one day.
Jiang Ruohua is not in a hurry to use Xiaoju and her daughter. A good knife should be used on a sharp blade. There is no need to rush. Aunt Ying is now in the hands of the Third Lady, and she has no way to contact De for the time being.
Although the Third Lady must pretend to take good care of Aunt Ying, her methods of taking action are often extremely vicious and cruel. Creating an accident is just the easiest way. She usually kills two people with one body, or waits until the child is born before taking action. If asked, she can say that the child is weak and not well taken care of. This is normal in the eyes of others. After all, even in the royal family, not every child can survive.
The luckiest ones are like the concubines of the Third House, who waited until the birth and gave birth to a girl, so that both mother and daughter can pick up a life.
"Go and get a bottle of good medicine for the mother and daughter." Jiang Ruohua said, "Do it quietly, don't let anyone see, and tell them not to act without permission."
"Yes."
After giving this instruction, Jiang Ruohua thought calmly about how to use Aunt Ying. She already had an idea. If it hadn't happened to happen, Jiang Ruohua felt that she would not have remembered such a useful person.
The most impressive thing was the spitting sound of the servant when he was talking nonsense, full of contempt.
"The bastards in the kiln are trying to have a sisterly relationship. Bah, they've stained the door lintel of the Duke's Mansion. What the hell! They're just for people to play with!"
Jiang Ruohua's face turned slightly cold. She took a deep breath. The more she thought about it, the colder she felt. And how many people in this world are still struggling in misery?
Obviously, God will not give everyone the opportunity to know the future. She saw all kinds of life in her dreams. She was not the only one who lived in misery.
One hand couldn't help but hold the other's wrist and held it tightly. She felt pathetic, but she couldn't change anything now. Reason restrained her impulse, but she returned to normal after a while.
But...how to contact people?
"These few days, you help me prepare a set of men's clothes secretly." Jiang Ruohua thought about it, then she could only go to that place once. She would tell her master tonight that she would go one less day these few days.
"Where are you going, young lady?" Yinqiu was stunned.
"Going to the kiln."
Jiang Ruohua left a sentence, which made Yinqiu stunned for a while. Yinqiu didn't know Jiang Ruohua's plan, but she felt that this was horrifying. She was stunned for two seconds before chasing after her and said: "Young lady, I... I'm going to say something I shouldn't say. Even if the King of Ying deserves to be killed, there are still many good men in the world. You can't give up on yourself..."
Jiang Ruohua:...
"... I didn't explain it clearly." Jiang Ruohua opened her mouth and didn't know what to say, "What are you thinking about? I just want to find someone."
She was afraid that if she didn't explain anything, this girl would devote herself to him.
In order to make use of Aunt Ying, she decided to go to this brothel. Even if she said she wouldn't go, the man would come if he knew Aunt Ying was trapped here, but her own efforts and her help are two different things.
What didn't surprise Jiang Ruohua was that after mentioning the request for leave to Xu Weiqing tonight, Xu Weiqing's bad temper was ignited. Even Ah Yao, who was always calm, slightly widened his eyes under the mask. Although the three of them were almost used to Xu Weiqing being like a powder keg every day, this was the first time that Xu Weiqing was so angry.
Hu Xingxing was affected and cried, "Jiang Ruohua, are you upset? You are a woman, and you want to go to that kind of place, and you also caused me to get beaten!"
Jiang Ruohua pursed her lips. She really couldn't refute anything, but she couldn't change anything either. She didn't expect Xu Weiqing to beat everyone indiscriminately.
So she gave the medicine she brought to Hu Xingxing, and the milk puffs that she didn't take out in time today, but they were broken.
A pair of hands quickly threw away the whip and took the two things. The little face was stuffed with round and bulging, which was really easy to coax. Jiang Ruohua gently rubbed her shoulders. Xu Weiqing was really cruel today. He didn't show any mercy at all. He only left her life. It was rare that he didn't learn anything.
But it doesn't matter. Xu Weiqing likes to use his hands and his mouth. Anyway, she is going to go. She is notifying, not requesting. He can do his thing and she can do her thing. There is no conflict.
In the end, the matter was solved happily.
"Ahem..." Ah Yao leaned against the wall lightly. He, who was always taciturn, rarely spoke. "I didn't expect that there is someone in the world who can make the old master give in. Junior sister is amazing."
Jiang Ruohua smiled: "I hope the senior brothers and sisters can put what they have learned into practice."
"Then forget it... You can do it by yourself." Hu Xingxing shook her head immediately after hearing this. She didn't dare to do such a thing. She just felt that she almost died in Xu Weiqing's hands! It's so scary! Sure enough, the minds of the ladies of the rich and powerful are different from those of poor people like them.
