Chapter 206 Kill the chicken and warn the monkey
"Grandpa Qi?"
Shaohua was stunned by this inexplicable name. Liu Xiaoya came in and said solemnly, "It's Uncle Qi Zhigao Qi in Mrs.'s family." Although he knows his name Zhigao, he is not tall. If he is a little fat, he will be like a man selling cooking cakes on East Street.
As soon as he heard this, he immediately remembered the man who came to the Hou mansion with Aunt Yan to talk provocatively. While Yan Kaizhi and Aunt Yan were talking, he even secretly thought about flirting with the little maid. The young man gragged his teeth with hatred for such an obscene man, "There is still a door on his face!"
Shaohua looked at Youhan and heard Liu Xiaoya say, "But madam, he is already sitting in the lobby."
Now, Shaohua also became angry, "Who let him in!" Obviously, she told everyone that day not to let anyone from the Qi family enter the Hou Mansion. They took her words in their ears.
Looking at Shaohua's angry eyes, Liu Xiaoya was shocked, "No, I don't know."
"What about Yingjiu Yingluo?" Shaohua looked at Chuhe.
Chu He was also angry, but the two most powerful people around Yan Kaizhi were not there. "Ying Jiu and the marquis went out together, and Ying Luo went out this morning and hasn't come back yet."
When you hear that the two most reliable people are not here, can't you ask her to come forward? Shaohua's heart was blocked and he was a little angry. Chu He hurriedly thought, "Madam, let's go to the old lady."
Youhan sighed that Qi Zhigao was really good at choosing the time. Unexpectedly, he came to the door at this time, obviously looking for trouble for Shaohua. Didn't Madam just say that she would go to Jingyin Temple? It's too late now."
Shaohua shook his head, "No, it's not a way to call her back for this matter." She wants to see who is so bold that she dares to let Qi Zhigao into the house. She cheered up and said, "Chur He Youhan, you go with me, Xiaoya, you lead the way."
Liu Xiaoya hurriedly turned around to lead the way. As soon as the master and servants walked to Huisong Hall, they heard a rough and contemptuous male voice, with a violent slap on the table.
"Call Yan Kaizhi to come out!" Qi Zhi sat in the main seat, with his five short figure lined with a big red cotton-padded round-neck robe, which looked bloated.
As soon as Shaohua entered the door, he saw four maids standing at the door in a daze. When she came to her, she hurriedly bowed down to salute. She frowned and glanced at the man sitting on the main seat, with an expression of disgust on her face.
A coquettish voice made Qi Zhigao drink all over, "Who is so presumptuous that he dares to call the marquis his name!"
Qi Zhigao was a delicate and beautiful woman at first sight. Her delicate and round face was full of anger, and she looked more beautiful. He immediately narrowed his eyes with a smile and said, "Yo! It turns out that my sister-in-law is at home."
Seeing his ** face, Youhan immediately stood up and stood in front of Shaohua, blocking his sight. Shaohua resisted the nauseating impulse and didn't even look at Qi Zhigao. He pointed to the four maids guarding the door and shouted, "You guys, come in and kneel down!"
The maid who was inexplicably called by Shaohua looked at me, and I looked at you. I didn't know what was going on. She walked in tremblingly and knelt in front of Shaohua in a row. Qi Zhigao also confused Shaohua's behavior and didn't understand what she wanted to do.
I only heard another shout from Shaohua and looked at the four people below coldly: "Youhan Chuhe, give me ten palms each."
"Madam, spare my life!" The four maids were shocked and immediately kowtowed for mercy. They didn't know why Shaohua was angry with them.
Chuhe Youhan was also confused and looked at Shaohua one after another. Seeing a sharp color on her face, her voice became majestic, "Forgive my life? Humph, your master asked people to call you by name and surname. You pestle there as wood, and you are ashamed to spare me for my life! Add five more times to see who dares to say spare his life again. At this time, the two suddenly realized that they immediately rolled up their sleeves, one was responsible for two, bowed left and right, and slapped each other fifteen times.
The crackling sound of the slap on the flesh's face made everyone feel scared and couldn't help sympathizing with the four people, but no one dared to come out to plead. Qi Zhigao, who was standing next to him, saw that Shaohua gave him a power as soon as he came out, and he actually beat the four flower-like little women with blue faces, and he couldn't help but feel a little timid.
Shaohua listened to the raindrops of applause mixed with their fine crying, and quietly spit out a sentence: "This is still in your own territory. You all dare to do this. If you go out of the door, you have to be bullied on your head. If you are not punished today, someone will dare to come to the house tomorrow, and the heroic mansion will be regarded by you.
When the young Han slapped them, their faces were swollen like a long bag, and they did not dare to cover their faces. They lowered their heads and sobbed with tears.
"Madam is finished."
"Are you convinced?" Shaohua sat on the main seat, slanted at the four people below, and asked in a loud voice.
"fu." How dare the four people say no and can't help nodding with a crying voice.
Shaohua nodded to Chu He and asked them to take the four maids down first. For a moment, the figure hiding outside the door and looked at the four maids covering their red and swollen cheeks and walked out with tears on their faces. There was a sigh in their hearts, and some of them had hidden.
"Well, wait, can you..." Qi Zhigao looked at the majestic Shaohua and hesitated whether he had come at the wrong time.
Shaohua still ignored her. She glanced at the figure on the window, saw Chu He coming back, and then said, "Chou He, go and call the people on duty today. I'm going to rectify the family rules today. All those who don't accept it will have the family law." If the end of the four maids just made a small number of people timid, then this sentence can surprise most of the eavesdroppers.
"Hey, I said..." Qi Zhigao was dissatisfied with Shaohua's disregard and was about to open his mouth when a 30-year-old man came in through the door. First, I made a gift for Shaohua, and then shook his head and said, "Madam, no!"
"Who are you?" Shaohua sneered in his heart, and the fox hiding in the dark finally showed its true face.
The stewman Cao looks beautiful and smells like a scholar. He walks on the street as if he were a student in Beijing. He can't see that he is a stewman. His voice was clear and polite, but there was a little contempt in his eyes, "Madam, I'm the stew of the second door, and my little surname is Cao."
"Did you put this mad dog in?" Shaohua glanced at him and didn't even call him. He looked at Qi Zhigao, sneered at him, and jumped up from his chair angrily.
As soon as Cao heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, no, the little one also came by Wenxin."
Shaohua was a little surprised by his origin when he saw that he was straight and had no slave nature, but said, "So you were also there when he called the marquis's name? Good, then you don't want to escape. Come on!" With this sound, several familymen immediately ran out, all tall, standing beside steward Cao, setting him off very thin and weak.
For good, let Youhan shout to crutch Zhang to help, otherwise she would hardly find anyone available in Hou's house.
stew manager Cao was scared by this camp. He didn't expect a few big men to come from, and looking at Shao Hua's appearance, he deliberately wanted to talk to him. His white face turned red and said, "Madam, I'm from the palace. If you want to beat and punish me, I have to be there."
It's okay not to say that, Shaohua's eyes are colder, and she wants to treat the people from this palace.
"Another one came from the palace. The palace is amazing. Isn't it a slave from the palace? I am still Mrs. Xingyonghou given by the emperor. Have you ever taken me seriously? One or both of them choked with me. How dare you feel that the backer in your palace is better than the emperor? Listening to Shaohua's words, every sentence is sharper and sharper, like a bayonet engraved on Cao's heart. His face was ashes and he dared not answer.
"This..." He couldn't react and was forced to ask nothing.
"Is it the Empress Dowager?" Shaohua's eyes were half closed and looked at his face for a moment of panic.
"No, it's not." Manager Cao immediately shook his head, and the last trace of blood faded, and his whole body seemed to have been pulled out of his soul.
Shaohua took a deep breath, looked at the arrogant steward Cao, and sneered: "Since it's not, why did you tell me who asked you to talk to me like this? Now you don't even look at me. Are you convinced, marquis? He pointed to the steward Cao with his head down and said to the big man beside him, "Well, together with General Cao, lock them all up for me and wait for the marquis to deal with him. No one can plead for mercy."
"Yes!" Several people spoke in unison, deafening like thunder, ignored Cao's struggle and dragged him down.
I saw that Officer Cao was dragged away. In addition to my sight, I caught a glimpse of someone running out in a panic, but my heart seemed to be reassured. This steward Cao is just a pawn thrown by Pang Ding. Judging from his demeanor and appearance, he still looks innocent. Shaohua grew up in a family full of scholars. She knew very well that no scholar would succumb to his pride and hide in Hou's house as a stew. As long as they want, even if they are poor all their lives, they should stand in the examination room.
You can make such a proud scholar come to the Hou Mansion as a stew. If the Hou Mansion doesn't have too much face, or the people in the General Affairs Office are too stupid. This is obviously here to take him out to test the knife.
Shaohua has so boldly frustrated the spirit of Pontin. Presumably, some people can't sit still, but what she wants is that they can't sit still. She doesn't want to be overshadowed by them any more. Since Mrs. Yan generously shook her hand to let her take care of the family, even if the blood flowed, she would clean up the Hou Mansion into a clean place.
After a glimpse of Qi Zhigao's restless moving figure, Shao Hua frowned, "Why are you still here?"
"I'm here to find Yan Kaizhi." Now, Qi Zhigao's voice is not as confident as at the beginning.
Shaohua shouted at the door, "What did you hear outside?" Suddenly, a few men came out of nowhere and coaxed. Some people raised their hands and some people carried their feet. They actually raised Qi Zhigao above their heads, which scared Qi Zhigao and struggled in mid-air, "Hey, hey! I haven't finished yet! You let me down!"
"This family does not welcome you. Be sure to tell the command hall that what the marquis dares not do does not mean that I dare not. Next time I come to the house, I will go to Jingzhao Mansion to complain. Send off the guests!" Shaohua said coldly, and everyone immediately lifted Qi Zhigao to the door.
