Chapter 254: Becoming Famous in One Battle

Mother Xie naturally wouldn’t fuss over such a small matter and naturally followed Xiao Baoxin’s wishes.
However, Madam Wang felt awkward. This matter was originally started by Xiao Baoxin’s maid. In the end, she said a light sentence and actually knew how to buy people’s hearts.
This old gun of hers was very good. She would shoot wherever the other party pointed and sweep the road clean.
It was said that Old Woman Xing was badmouthing Xiao Baoxin behind his back, but when she arrived, she did not say a word. Instead, she was being gossiped about by others, and her foundation was exposed.
He didn’t have the mood to smile and apologize to Mother Xie.
“My head hurts a little today. In addition to the mess in the courtyard, I still have to watch them clean up, so I won’t be here to accompany Grand Furen to eat. Tomorrow morning, I’ll rush over to pay my respects to Grand Furen.”
Mother Xie could tell that she was unhappy.” It’s all the servants ‘fault. You, as the master, are also upset. Ah Xiao, don’t be distant from your third aunt in the future. She’s the most soft-hearted.”
Xiao Baoxin smiled faintly.” How can I be distant from Third Aunt? I can still differentiate between close and distant.” However, I would like to apologize to Third Shen here. As long as our Xiao family has such a discussion behind the scenes, the steward will first issue the family law and then chase them out of the residence. Cai Wei is also an old habit that is difficult to change. She did not know the Xie family’s rules and did not even speak clearly, so there were many twists and turns.”
“Fortunately, Third Shen was impartial and the truth was revealed. It also gave the servants a warning. The master is the master. It’s enough to say that she stole food from the kitchen and took it out. She still dared to offend her superiors. When she was caught, she argued and tried to cover up. I don’t know who gave them the courage.”
“Third Aunt should be punished severely! Let’s see who dares to gossip behind my back in the future!”
These words hit the nail on the head.
Madam Wang sneered.” This is my duty. I’m just doing my job. I’m really flattered by your praise…No junior has ever praised me like this.”
No rules, no rules, what kind of person would raise what kind of bird? Strange how could they raise a servant like Cai Wei, who was like a broken horse, Zhang Fei?
Who are you to tell your elders what to do?
“That’s right. Third daughter-in-law has handled this matter well. In the future, if anyone violates it again, the entire family will be chased out of the residence. Our Xie family does not raise ungrateful people.”Mother Xie picked up her teacup and took two sips of tea.
“As the saying goes, kindness doesn’t mean that you can’t control weapons, and righteousness doesn’t mean that you can’t control money. You’re soft-hearted and good-looking, and you’re a good person, but the butler… It was a good thing to be generous to others, but it also depended on what happened. One could not be consistent and had to be flexible in everything.”
“Third daughter-in-law, you should go back and rest today. When your health is better in the future, this family should be reorganized. It’s hard to guard against thieves in the house. It’s a small matter to steal food today. If everyone does this, it’s not a long-term solution. Bao Xin, you should learn from your third aunt. After all, you still have to manage this family in the future.”
“Yes, the butler has his own rules. You can’t be soft-hearted. You should learn from your third aunt’s careful planning and control this side of you…Forget it. Your third aunt is too soft-hearted.”Madam Yuan said indifferently.
Xiao Baoxin had a bright smile on her face. She was not in a hurry to take over the management rights from Madam Wang, but she did not allow the third branch to use methods to disgust her behind her back.
Mother Xie had repeatedly asked her to take it over. She had no reason to push it away. This was not her character. She did not cause trouble, but she was not afraid of trouble either.
“Yes, 1 will remember Grandmother and Mother’s words. I will have to trouble Third Shen in the future.”
Madam Wang only felt a sharp pain in her chest. One moment, one person would twist her in one direction, and the next moment, that person would twist her in the other direction. It turned out that the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren could only be pinched by this soft dough of hers.
Without another word, he could not even squeeze out a smile. He hurriedly bade farewell and returned to the third room, even smashing his beloved teacup.
“.. The person in Rong Antang was not easy to get along with.”Shiliu had a lingering fear in her heart. She had seen a new daughter-in-law who was so tough. Even the second branch’s Wang was the niece of her own Old Furen. She was also cautious in the Xie family.
Madam Xiao’s strength was so strong that she looked flustered. If she used too much strength, she was afraid of accidentally injuring her.
Madam Wang snorted and rubbed her head.”She was born in a poor family and has no knowledge and rules, but she is very ambitious. She dared to challenge me after entering the house for less than two days. If it weren’t for the fact that Madam protected her, she wouldn’t even know how she died!”
“They’re so shameless to not allow others to talk about their family’s stupid things!”
If she had the guts to want to take charge of the Xie family’s supplies, she would have to see if she had the ability.
“Send someone to keep an eye on Rong Antang. If there’s any movement, report back to me immediately.”Madam Wang’s head hurt even more. Those people in Rong Antang had been by Xie Xian’s side for many years, and they could not be put in place. The maids who went later were also selected from the residence, but Madam Yuan had personally selected them. She did not intervene and did not arrange for them to be taken in.
Rong Antang and Yi Antang had always been independent. They even brought their own kitchen. All the equipment and food purchased in the hall were all their own. It had nothing to do with the palace at all. She said that she was the housekeeper, but she only managed half of the Xie family. She had never gathered everything in her hands.
In the past, she did not feel that Rong Antang had stabbed into her heart with the addition of Xiao Baoxin.
But for a time, he could not take down Rong Antang. Originally, he was pretending to be sick, but in a fit of anger, he really fell ill. Naturally, the matter of handling government affairs was delayed.

Xiao Baoxin had become famous in the Xie Clan.
The higher-ups didn’t know, but the servants knew clearly where the ‘bad words’ about Xiao Baoxin came from.
He easily chased the Xing family, who had served the Xie family for three generations, out of the residence. His methods were ruthless.
Even though Madam Wang was the one who made the decision, the one who beat him up was from Rong Antang. In the end, the one who was beaten up was chased out. The one who beat him up did not lose a single strand of hair. He entered Yi Antang and came out in one piece. It had to be said that Rong Antang was very protective of his child.
Those who wanted to gossip behind his back had to consider whether they could take a beating from the dowry maid of Rong Antang’s wife. Was it worth it to risk being chased out of the residence just to talk?
As Cai Wei walked from Yi An Hall back to Rong An Hall, she could feel the stares of those who were staring at her with a tinge of fear.
“Furen, does this servant imitate Youmei?”Cai Wei’s eyes lit up, her face eager for praise.
Tang Li held back her laughter, but Youmei, who had come out of the house, heard her.”What did you learn from me?” As he spoke, he welcomed Xiao Baoxin into the house and served him tea and water.
“If you learn well, you can do better.” Xiao Baoxin raised his slender hand.”
Cai Wei was never shy when she received a reward,” This servant thanks you for your reward!”
“Let’s see who dares to gossip about Rong Antang this time. Seal her mouth!”
Xiao Baoxin smiled but did not say anything. Others were just watching the show, but he knew what was going on.
This time, she was using her strength to fight back. Mother Xie and Mrs. Yuan could tell that they were just using their strength to see through her. She was grateful for this favor, especially Mrs. Yuan’s strength. Xiao Bao was convinced.
However, this move could only be used once. If he used it again, it would be annoying.
In the future, he would have to rely on his own strength.
Of course she wasn’t afraid. She was used to it and wasn’t afraid of being beaten up. The main reason was that no one could beat her. However, he had to guard against the third branch playing dirty. Just by looking at Madam Wang’s cold eyes today, she did not believe that she had no backup plan..
