Looking at the figure standing at the door, who actually dared to stare at his wife, Su Shien immediately felt displeased.
She turned Han Zeyu's handsome face away from everyone else and scolded the maid at the door, "Is this what your grandmother taught you? Don't you know to knock before coming in? How disrespectful of you!"
The little maid bit her lower lip tightly, trying hard to hold back her tears. She said aggrievedly, "Grandmother told me to come look for the young mistress. I saw the door was open and... I was about to speak when the young mistress saw me. I'm not ignorant of the rules, I just didn't have time."
Han Zeyu was quite amused to hear this. She kept calling herself "I" instead of a servant. It seemed that not only was this little maidservant conceited, but the wet nurse also had big plans.
But I didn't expect that the wet nurse in the mansion actually had a direct blood relative in the mansion, and from what she said, it seemed that the child was not a family-born child, so this wet nurse must not be kept.
In Han Zeyu's opinion, slaves who bully their masters should be eliminated. Although they are called wet nurses in name, they are actually just confinement nannies in later generations. He has never heard of any precedent for providing for confinement nannies in their old age. Please forgive him, a cow and horse in the end times, for not being able to empathize with ancient people.
Han Zeyu felt that since it was aimed at him, he should be the one to deal with it.
Han Zeyu asked the maid frivolously, "Why are you staring at me? Do you think I'm pretty? I admit that I'm indeed quite good-looking, but you're an unmarried girl, and staring at me all the time seems to be detrimental to your reputation."
The little maid was shocked. This guy was so shameless that he dared to talk so big in front of the young master and slander her reputation. Wouldn't the young master do anything about him?
She turned her attention to the eldest young master she had been thinking about, and found that he was holding Han Zeyu's head and letting him rest his head on his legs.
The little maidservant was shattered into pieces. Both her body and her heart were shattered into pieces and could not be put back together.
Grandma was right. The eldest young master had lost his mind because of the vixen.
"Grandma and the wet nurse are not feeling well. I'm afraid they can't handle the tasks assigned by the eldest young lady. They are afraid of delaying tomorrow's important work, so they asked me to come and apologize."
The little girl spoke in such a humble tone that if you didn't know her, you would think she had suffered a great injustice!
However, it was not easy for two grown men to make things difficult for a little girl, so Han Zeyu asked her to leave after leaving the gift list.
Su Shien's face turned grim. Was he trying to use him as a ladder or a stepping stone?
As expected, kind people are often bullied and kind horses are often ridden. His previous attitude was very obvious, but it was obvious that the nanny didn't take his words to heart at all.
In this case, don't blame him for disregarding the relationship between master and servant. Disrespecting Yu Ge'er is the same as disrespecting him. This precedent must not be set.
Han Zeyu saw Su Shien's expression and knew that his thoughts coincided with hers. She felt comforted and touched her husband's handsome face, coaxing him softly, "Let's wait until we divide the family. When the time comes, we can dismiss all the servants and replace them with new ones."
Su Shien held Yu Ge'er's hand and nodded in agreement. But who should be sent to take care of the gift this time? They couldn't just go to the storehouse to collect it themselves!
"What's there to worry about? Just ask the maid who tried to run away just now. I think her name is Dingxiang. She seems quite smart. Let her go. This is not a place where anyone can come and go as they please in our shabby yard."
Su Shien, the famous eldest son of the Su family, can't even order a servant around and has to go and call him in person. He has been living a very frustrating life these years.
Dingxiang frowned and reluctantly followed the eldest young master to the study. As soon as she entered, she saw the newly arrived eldest young master's wife leaning on the couch, holding a book in her hand as a fan, fanning herself with it.
This, this man actually ordered the young master to pass on the message, while he himself was lying there doing nothing. It was really as the rumors said, the young master's soul had been taken away by him, and he obeyed his words.
"Take the list on the table to the warehouse and pick out the return gifts you'll need tomorrow. Be careful and make sure there are no mistakes or omissions."
Dingxiang was smart. She knew that such chores were usually handled by the wet nurse. Today, it suddenly fell on her. She was probably trying to intimidate the eldest young lady. She could leave here immediately, so why bother getting involved in this mess?
Thinking of this, Dingxiang had an idea in her mind.
"In reply to Lord Zheng, this matter should be handled by the wet nurse. I dare not interfere. I will call the wet nurse over here and wait for your orders."
Han Zeyu raised his eyebrows. He was indeed the first one to find a new buyer. He was indeed smart and did a lot to save face. The respectful title and attitude made it impossible for him to find any fault with him.
But...
Han Zeyu's eyes showed admiration, and he said with relief, "You are quite clever, and you are also quite good-looking. I will ask the Madam for your indenture in a moment, and you will follow me and the Young Master from now on! Don't worry, as long as you do your job well, I will take you with me even if we have to separate our family and live alone."
Su Shien blinked. Yu Ge'er's words were not a threat but were more like a threat than anything else. This meant that Dingxiang had no time to think about it.
Dingxiang was also stunned. This was naked coercion. If she didn't obey, she would be killed. There was no way she could find another master. Don't even think about it.
Dingxiang took a deep breath and felt her heart sink. Who said that this farm boy was impulsive, reckless and brainless?
Stand up, she promises not to beat him to death!
After pondering for a moment, Dingxiang lowered her head, took the list from the desk, and said respectfully, "Since this task has fallen on me, I believe the nurse must be unwell. I have overstepped my bounds. I will do my best to complete the task and live up to my master's trust."
Listen to how nice this sounds!
Han Zeyu really had a liking for talent. It would be great if this person could follow him. Even if not, he could serve as a spy in the Su Mansion and keep in touch with him frequently!
At this time, Dingxiang didn't know that her life as a double agent was doomed from that moment on.
In less than half an hour, Dingxiang came back with the things. She counted them one by one and there was absolutely no mistake or omission.
Dingxiang knew in her heart that if she accepted this job today, she would probably have troubles for some time to come and would have a grudge with her wet nurse. But if she did not accept this job, her youth would be wasted.
She can still tell what is important and what is not.
Han Zeyu looked at the return gift with satisfaction, raised his hand and flicked out a piece of silver, which landed squarely on the gift box, on which was still the previous gift list.
"Put the list away first!"
Ding Xiang was shocked. Could this new wife be using hidden weapons? Oh my god, she should be more careful recently! The new wife is much scarier than the wet nurse.
The latter is a paper tiger that is about to lose its power, while the former is a real tiger that can eat people.
