Perhaps because Xu Miaomiao was leaving, Song Wushao came back extra often these days. Whenever they ate together, Song Wushao could always be seen, and there were piles of food in Xu Miaomiao's bowl. Xu Miaomiao also had a helpless smile on her face. At most, Gu Yuanniang and Xu Qingshan would say that they were too affectionate. Xu Miaomiao didn't feel embarrassed about anything, as this was how it should be between husband and wife.
Besides, Gu Yuanniang and Xu Qingshan are even sweeter than them. Seeing Xu Qingshan picking all the fish and meat and putting the dishes in Gu Yuanniang's bowl, and then smiling at her, Xu Miaomiao couldn't help but smack her lips and said, "Sixth Mother, you are still talking about us. Look at you and Mr. Xu, you are such an old couple, and you are still so loving now."
Gu Yuanniang lowered her head shyly when she heard this, and said nothing. Xu Qingshan said generously: "I can't compare to Brother Song, Madam Xu, you don't know, Brother Song is really meticulous and careful to you."
Listening to Xu Qingshan's words, Xu Miaomiao looked up at him and didn't say much. Song Wushao, on the other hand, still looked normal and was eating the rice in the bowl.
"By the way, Wang Mang was a little quiet during this festival." Xu Miaomiao suddenly remembered this matter and said to Gu Yuanniang. She had not been at home these days and was busy planting rice outside, so Gu Yuanniang was still in charge of the house. Just think about such a big house, and it must be very tiring for Gu Yuanniang to manage it alone. It's a pity that Song Weiwei is a person who doesn't like to take care of these things. As long as she takes care of her own things, she won't even look at anything else.
Besides, Xu Miaomiao was naturally worried about letting Song Weiwei do it. When Gu Yuanniang heard what Xu Miaomiao said, she nodded and said, "It has calmed down a lot. Before, Xiaobao also went to see him. Usually, I let a maid in the house take care of him."
Xu Miaomiao nodded when she heard that. The Song Mansion was not big, and there were not many maids and servants in total. There was only Gu Yuanniang by her side, and Song Weiwei, who was a naughty girl and didn't like people to follow her. Gu Yuanniang also made her own decisions in public. It seemed that her maid was given to Wang Mang.
When Xu Miaomiao heard this, he nodded. He was not very clear about these things, but he thought that since Gu Yuan's mother managed everything, everything must be in order.
"By the way, Miaomiao, you are leaving for the capital this time, but you have already picked out the location of the store."
Xu Miaomiao shook her head: "I'm not optimistic, but we really can't buy the previous place. I always tried my best to prove myself before, but one thing is right. Since they are unwilling to sell it to women, why should I say that I bought the store myself? It would be better to register it under the name of Song Wushao or Mr. Xu. I think I can buy a better store. But this time I would rather join forces with others. If we can work together, we can save the time of starting over again."
"So what kind of store do you have your eyes on that you want to join forces with?"
Xu Miaomiao nodded: "I do have this intention, but I have to wait and see the details before I know."
Listening to Xu Miaomiao's words, Gu Yuanniang nodded in response. Now their department store in Bai County is doing very well and has a certain degree of popularity. If they can actually open it in the capital, it will surely be successful.
"Madam Xu, please have mercy and save my life."
Just as Xu Miaomiao was about to put a piece of green vegetable into her mouth, the woman next to her suddenly knelt down, looking at Xu Miaomiao with tears in her eyes. She was a little confused and puzzled, but she immediately helped the woman up: "Why are you begging me for help? Didn't we agree that we only signed a contract and you worked in my house, but you didn't give us the indenture."
The servants in Xu Miaomiao's mansion were not bought, but signed contracts to live here and pay some silver to these people every month, so there was no such thing as a body contract. Suddenly, this maid knelt down, which shocked Xu Miaomiao a little.
"Madam Xu, my sister and I came to the Song Mansion voluntarily. One followed Madam Xu, and the other followed Madam Gu. Madam Xu has treated us like sisters and we are very close. But I still ask Madam Xu to let my sister leave. She really can't stand being with Wang Mang."
Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuanniang looked at each other and immediately lost the mood to eat. They put down their bowls and chopsticks and followed Gu Yuanniang to the lobby. Looking at the woman in front of them, Xu Miaomiao looked at Xiao Si next to them and said, "Go call Honglu over."
At that time, a pair of sisters entered the Song Mansion. The elder sister was called Hongliu and the younger sister was called Honglu. Xu Miaomiao did not suggest that they change their names and continued to call them that. Gu Yuanniang also looked at Hongliu and said, "If you have any grievances, just tell us offline. Miaomiao and I will definitely take care of it for you."
Hong Liu looked at Gu Yuanniang, nodded, and then slowly said, "The eldest lady and the eldest husband in the family are very good to us, but since the eldest lady Gu asked my sister to take care of Wang Mang, everything has changed."
"But what did Wang Mang do to bully you?"
Gu Yuanniang immediately spoke up, blushing a little, and nodded but not shaking her head: "It's not all Wang Mang's fault, but that Mr. Wang is so abominable. We have no other choice, so we ask the two ladies for help."
Xu Miaomiao was a little confused. Gu Yuanniang had always been kind and harmonious. Why would she hold back until now to say something? Before Hongliu could speak, Honglu came over slowly. Compared to Hongliu's gentleness and kindness, Honglu looked more delicate and immature. When she saw her sister, she immediately said "sister". She screamed, and then she realized that Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuanniang were together. She saluted to the two of them: "Madam."
Xu Miaomiao waved her hand. Seeing that she could not get anything out of Hongliu, she looked at Honglu and said, "What happened? You were bullied. Just tell me. You all came to the Song Mansion because I hired you. I will definitely take care of you. No one can bully you at will."
Hearing this, Honglu was still a little dazed, but then she looked at Hongliu who was in a daze beside her, and immediately realized what had happened. She looked at Hongliu and said, "Sister, have you told the lady? Didn't you promise me not to tell? Why did you do this?"
