Chapter 24: With the blessing of the ancestors, the Marquis will be fine
There were wings of hope in the eyes of the Marquis and his wife.
You are young and don’t understand household chores, how can you manage the household?
There must be instruction from an elder, otherwise there is no need to give the matching keys. Or, even if the matching keys are given, it is useless if the elder who teaches the housework does not give the order.
Qin Yinyao watched Nanny Xia perform quietly.
Nanny Xia took in the couple's expressions, then chuckled and continued, "It should have been the mistress, or the maids around her, who gave her some instruction."
"However, the Marquis and his wife are busy kneeling in the ancestral hall to reflect on their mistakes. The house cannot be left without a master for a day, so the key should be handed over to the eldest lady."
"I'll have this old servant assist you. I've also managed the private vault for the noble in the palace, so I'm sure you'll be able to take care of everything. And then I'll select a maid from Madam's household to look after her..."
"It's just some family matters, I don't think there will be any mistakes."
The moment their seniority in the palace was mentioned, the Marquis and his wife knew in their hearts that they could not keep this pair of keys.
The Marquis smiled hypocritically: "Mammy, you are joking. With you helping to look after it, nothing will go wrong."
The people in the palace, especially the elderly maids who were released, all have complicated connections with nobles behind them, so no one dares to offend them.
What's more, the person in front of him came here on the orders of the crown prince.
He glanced at his wife Liu beside him and said, "Why don't you send someone to bring the key to the pair?"
Since even the Marquis didn't dare to confront her, the Marquis's wife had no choice but to accept the defeat and ordered her personal maid to get the key.
"If Your Highness has no other instructions, I will think about it first." The Marquis said.
This Nanny Xia in front of me is not someone who is easy to get along with. Instead of listening to her slander and accusations here, it is better to go to the ancestral hall to find some peace and quiet.
Moreover, we also need to discuss in detail how to deal with the aftermath of the formation.
The formation was broken, but Cen Xiaoan's soul did not dissipate and was taken back by Si Tianjian's men. I'm afraid Si Tianjian knows everything now.
If I don't think of a solution anymore, do I really have to take out the Qin family's red book and iron certificate for a bitch?
"My Lord and Madam, please do as you please." Nanny Xia knelt politely.
The Marquis and his wife limped out with the help of their servants.
After they left the hall, Nanny Xia turned and followed them a few steps, then asked the remaining servants, "Who is Nanny Qian who serves the Madam?"
The old woman following behind the Marquis's wife paused and subconsciously looked at the Marquis's wife.
After just one glance, Madam Qian withdrew her gaze, turned around and bowed politely: "I am Madam Qian, the old servant who serves the Madam. I wonder if you have any instructions, Madam."
"Please wait a moment." Nanny Xia.
After saying that, he ignored Nanny Qian.
Qin Yinyao stood by the door frame, looking at Nanny Qian from a distance through several servants, and laughed out loud.
He used to be well-dressed and well-built, and he looked at people with slits in his eyes.
She looks like the mistress of a wealthy family.
Today, the clothes are still as rich as before, even more gorgeous than before.
But his face was purple and blue, half of his hair turned white in just a few days, and he looked old and tired and could not be concealed.
It can be seen that life is not easy.
Yes, becoming a pawn of the Marquis’ wife is naturally a dead end.
Fortunately, he still had the identity of a wet nurse as a talisman, so he had to slowly find a way to make his death look like an accident.
Otherwise, it would be almost the seventh day by now.
The Marquis's wife gave Madam Qian a sinister warning look before turning and leaving.
Nanny Qian felt even more bitter.
"Madam, can we go back now?" Qin Yinyao looked at Madam Xia.
Nanny Xia's show of authority was to establish her authority as the housekeeper in the future, so naturally she had to cooperate.
Now that I've finished establishing my authority, my stomach has already started to growl.
"Young lady is my master, so I will naturally follow your instructions." Nanny Xia half-knelt and bowed respectfully.
Qin Yinyao smiled and said, "Let's go. Come over when you wake up. You haven't eaten anything yet."
"I am negligent. I deserve to die." Nanny Xia bowed again and stepped forward to support Qin Yinyao's arm: "Miss, please."
Qin Yinyao lowered her eyes and glanced at the skinny hand under her wrist.
Tsk, it seems that this wish is not easy to achieve.
But it’s okay, because difficulty is the only way to be challenging.
Dong Ning tactfully walked ahead to lead the way.
Before leaving the courtyard of the banquet hall, I heard a scream not far away.
"My Lord! Are you alright?" The Marquis's wife yelled in a shrill voice, "You bastard! Go get a doctor!"
The two groups of people were not far apart, and Qin Yinyao saw them clearly.
Although the mansion is paved with cobblestones everywhere, the cobblestones are non-slip and are not as slippery as shoes with clogged soles, so people won't fall easily.
Just now, the Marquis tripped over his left foot and fell.
He happened to hit his head on a raised cobblestone, causing a bleeding scene.
The backlash has begun.
"Tsk." Qin Yinyao raised her voice, "Those who do evil will surely perish. It's not that I won't pay you back, it's just that the time has not come yet, Lord."
The Marquis was already in great pain, and when he heard this, he was so angry that he fainted.
"My Lord, you have been inspired by your ancestors. Why don't you quickly carry it to the ancestral hall?" Nanny Xia said calmly.
Qin Yinyao raised her eyebrows.
This move she made a single 6.
Madam Hou: “???”
Is this old bitch crazy?! The Marquis is already in this state, why is he going to the ancestral hall?! Shouldn't he go to the bedroom to see a doctor and then have a good rest?
"The Marquis is injured and needs to rest. The ancestors will forgive him..."
Before he could finish his words, his feet slipped and he fell to his knees on the ground.
His knee hit the cobblestone directly, and his face turned pale with pain.
Nanny Xia remained calm and composed. "When parents call, one should respond without delay. Even a three-year-old child understands this principle. Why are you so confused, Madam? Look, you've been punished."
He glanced at the servants who had not yet left the scene and said, "What are you all standing there for? Send the Marquis and his wife to the ancestral hall. The doctor is here, so please go directly to the ancestral hall."
"With the blessing of our ancestors, the Marquis will be fine."
After saying this, he ignored the Marquis's wife, whose face turned black, red and blue with anger, and carefully helped Qin Yinyao back to the yard.
When they went out, there was one master and two servants, and when they came back, there was a large group of people.
The sun was not yet too strong, so Qin Yinyao sat down directly at the stone table in the yard.
"Miss, I'll go get you some snacks first." Dong Ning bowed with her head lowered.
Among the servants, a woman about thirty years old, who was accompanying the woman, stood up.
"Hello, Master." The woman bowed and said, "I am the cook sent by Your Highness. From now on, let me prepare meals for you."
Su Niang, born in a poor family, earned her the name Su Niang because she could make vegetables taste like meat. Later, she entered the palace and was appreciated by the steward of the imperial kitchen, where she learned a lot of cooking skills.
"Then let's set up a small kitchen in the yard, and you will be responsible for my three meals a day." Qin Yinyao nodded in agreement after reading the barrage.
Who would want to eat coarse food when they have a good life?
Dong Ning obediently made a gesture of invitation: "Follow me."
After the two left, Nanny Xia introduced the remaining three maids one by one: Chunqi, Xia An, and Qiu Sui.
"These are all names given by His Highness." Nanny Xia smiled and said, "They also suit Miss Dongning's name."
The three of them greeted each other one by one.
The only ones left are Ying Yi and ten other secret guards.
Just as they stepped forward and hadn't even begun to salute, Qin Yinyao raised her hand to stop them: "We've all been staying at the mansion all night yesterday, so there's no need to go through the motions of a first meeting."
Ten people: “…”
