    Ding Xiang wiped away her tears twice, her voice choked up, "No, I didn't say anything"

    ¡°I didn¡¯t say anything, how can you find fault with her? She¡¯s crying so sadly, it seems like I taught you the wrong thing just now and I¡¯ve wronged you?¡±

    Ding Xiang remained silent, and Hua Xi sighed again, "I have no one to rely on in this house. You and Mother Liu were the two caring people. Now you are not willing to tell the truth to me. I should go there in the future."  Who do you believeHey!"

    Ding Xiang felt aggrieved when Hua Xi said that she had made things difficult for the girl by losing her temper. She quickly waved her hands and said, "No, it's not the case. Hongliu said that the old lady thought that the girl had suffered outside these years, and the fourth aunt's grandma had gone early so she passed away  In a few days, I will provide you with a nanny and a first-class maid to make up for the missing rules and etiquette. I also said that the old lady does not like the close service bought from outside I am not young anymore, maybe this  Next time I will point you out to match the servant"

    Hua Xi frowned and asked, "Who is she talking about?"

    Ding Xiang understood what Hua Xi meant and responded calmly: "It's Wu Mingand that Jinxiu is Wu Ming's girl."

    No wonder Dingxiang was angry just now. Hongliu came to say this to Dingxiang only after meeting Jinxiu today.  The maidservant who served an old lady had her own sense of propriety in what she said and did. Hongliu was too impatient. Isn't this a mistake that someone like her would make?

    People like Wu Ming would definitely look down upon someone who knew everything about him in the house. In addition, the person he saw most outside in the past two years was Ding Xiang. Seeing that he was not a serious master, he had no reason to take a liking to her.  Can be forgiven.  But Wu Yushun is the steward of the second outer door, which is still far worse than that of the inner door. His maid is not as proud in front of the third grandma, but she is not as good as the old lady and the maid next to the eldest house, and even Hongliu is not as good as him.  superior.

    ¡°I have only been here for two months, and yet their family has such thoughts. It cannot be justified no matter what, let alone inviting Hongliu to make peace.  There are three possibilities for Hongliu to agree to this matter. One is that he owes them, the other is that he was caught by them, and the third is that he got great benefits. The first two are easy to say, but if it is the third, what will he get?  The benefits are hard to say

    Hua Xi¡¯s expression changed, ¡°Go and ask Mother Liu to come over.¡±

    Ding Xiang didn¡¯t know what she meant. Seeing that she looked wrong, she thought the matter was in trouble, so she called Mother Liu over to discuss it. She felt even more uneasy and hurriedly went out to find Mother Liu and arrived at the incense room.

    When Liu¡¯s mother came, Huaxi asked Dingxiang to tell her what happened in the afternoon, and then asked: ¡°Have you ever heard about Hongliu¡¯s family? Is her family related to Wu Yushun¡¯s family?¡±

    Mother Liu replied: "Hongliu is a son of the family, and Wu Yushun's family is the third wife's mate, so there is no connection. Hongliu's grandfather was the groom of the old marquis, and was later sent to Zhuangzi as a steward. During the Taiping years, there was an epidemic, and neither his grandfather nor his parents were alive.  Later, she followed her grandmother back to the house. Her grandmother and Mama Wang were god-sisters. Before her death, she gave Hongliu to Mama Wang to raise, which was when the slave girl left with the Fourth Miss. I guess the old lady later took her to Mama Wang for her sake.  I mentioned that I became a second-class maid."

    "It's not involved. It has a backer, not a relative. The possibility of being caught is low. If you owe a favor, you don't have to sacrifice your face to pay it back. The only possibility is to make a profit What kind of profit is it?"

    "My servant thinks there is something fishy about this matter. I have only found out in the past two days that someone below has said that the reason for the worsening of Old Marquis's illness is because of the Third Master. If it is true, then the Third Household should not let others take it easy at this time."

    Ding Xiang was confused and stood there with a blank look on her face, looking towards Hua Xi, waiting for her to speak.

    Huaxi thought for a while and asked: "How much money do you have in the past two months?"

    "The monthly allowance for the boys in the house is twelve taels, and for the girls, it is six taels. In addition, we will give you a box of rouge, two boxes of fine powder, and two bottles of sesame oil. Here are the rules for the girls here. In these two months, go to the kitchen to get goat's milk,  Lard, the sesame seeds, red dates and other dried fruits you asked for are two taels for chewing as snacks, and there are also four taels of reward money, leaving one tael of silver for two months, a total of six taels."

    Huaxi usually doesn't care about the accounts. After hearing what Liu's mother said, I realized that there is more money in this mansion than outside. There are not many people coming to Qixia Garden on weekdays. They just ask for news and send things to the maid.  I only spent four taels of reward money, which is enough for an ordinary person to live for half a year.

    The things that the old lady and the elders gave her cannot be used, and the fragrant powder and other things they gave out every month are marked and they cannot be given away even though they are not used.  The remaining money was intended to be saved for emergencies, but now he could only use it first. At the same time, he had to figure out how many pieces to split into flowers. Hou Men's life was also difficult.  After all, who can say that I have to rely on others to live my life.

    Huaxi did not dare to think wildly anymore, straightened out her thoughts, and ordered: "Mother Liu, leave one tael of silver and exchange it for loose money. The remaining five taels of silver, youThink of a way to go out of the house in three days or find a reliable person to bring back some handmade purses from outside. The patterns must be new and the materials used can be inferior. The most important thing is not to stuff them with spices. It is best to  To hold some small items.  Lilac, please don't wait in my room for the next two days. Stay in the incense room. I'll choose some spices and you can grind them into powder for me. You'll also need to prepare some refined honey.  To the outside world, say that I will punish you to work and grind spices for the old ladies and girls.  "

    Ding Xiang was confused and asked: "Girl, that money is not a small amount. If you take action, how will we live in the next month?"

    Mother Liu seemed to understand, "Yes, girl, what do you mean?"

    Hua Xi explained: "It turns out that I didn't touch the spices in the fragrance room because I had to be careful when I first entered the mansion. After these days, I roughly know the going in and out of the spices in the mansion. I won't touch musk and ambergris.  I only use these expensive spices that can be used as both medicinal materials and spices. These medicinal materials are large in quantity and cheap, and you can¡¯t find any missing ones. I just happened to catch some fragrant medicines and fragrant pills, which is much better than giving money and silver directly.  Now. Besides, the food and other things are all distributed in the kitchen, so we won¡¯t go hungry. There are also clothes, and I don¡¯t like to use those powders. The remaining one or two will be enough for us to survive until next month.¡±

    "It's not appropriate for Ding Xiang to go to inquire about the third room and Wu Yushun's family. It's better to go as a servant." After all, Liu's mother had more knowledge. She immediately understood what Hua Xi meant and secretly admired that her girl was shrewd and thoughtful.  The finished fragrant medicine and fragrant pills are rare items, and the price is not low. On weekdays, you can only get a few pills from time to time with the master, and the quantity is very small.  This is not better than money as a favor for my own girl.

    Ding Xiang's eyes turned red again after hearing this, and she sobbed: "Young girl is doing this for me What do you want me to do? If they push me too hard, they will twist their hair and become a aunt, and Ding Xiang will never harm the girl."

    "What a stupid thing! You're ready to retreat before the car reaches the mountain. You know there's no road ahead? Don't think about those ancient Buddhas at a young age. How can ordinary people escape from the world of mortals so easily? You and me  We are all common people, this matter is not only for you, but also for myself"

    Hua Xi sighed leisurely, and secretly made a decision in her heart: There are many roads, and they are full of thorns. If she is not able to overcome the thorns, she must find a way to find a relatively flat path.
