Heluo sat on the rickety carriage, and Mama Zhou was next to her. The carriage was heading in the direction of Pei's mansion, but she didn't expect that the eldest lady's movements were so fast, and she asked Mama Hu to pick her up with her little maid. I don't know if it's because of her request this time, even the carriage is much better than when it came.

Heluo looked around the carriage, is the eldest lady really so sure that she will be at her mercy, and use herself to block the mouth of that family, and I don't know if people are dissatisfied?

When I arrived at the Thorn Mansion, I said that the old lady was unwell and couldn't see anyone. Heluo was accompanied by Mama Zhou to see the eldest lady, and carefully and properly performed the family ceremony, and the eldest lady hurriedly asked her to get up. The smile on his face was very kind: "Come forward and take a good look at my mother, this time you will go to pray for me and your eldest sister, but it will make you suffer." Now I'm back in the house. What you want to eat and what you want to play, just tell your mother, don't be restricted. ”

Heluo seemed to be a little flattered and whispered back: "It is Heluo's duty to pray for his mother and big sister, and he doesn't dare to ask for anything, just ask for his mother's health." ”

The eldest lady instructed a few more words, because she said that Heluo could not have a girl by her side, so she sent two powerful girls to follow.

When Heluo walked away, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief and took another sip of tea. Only then did he ask Mama Hu next to her, "Mama saw that this girl went to Qingtan Temple, but there was something different." ”

"It's not the same as before, the face is sallow, and the look of not even daring to say it out loud is too small. Mama Hu bowed her head and replied respectfully, thinking that these three girls didn't even dare to look at the face of the eldest lady when they entered the door, and they only lowered their heads and replied, and they didn't even dare to breathe loudly, how could they escape the control of the lady.

Heluo led the two maids back to the previous yard and did not assign anything to the two. And the two girls watched Heluo and Mama Zhou untie the packed luggage one by one, and then put it away in different categories, but they couldn't see it. Anyway, the eldest lady gave these three girls face in the past few days, and she couldn't ask the two of them to come forward and be courteous.

Mama Zhou looked at the appearance of these two maids, and frowned in her heart, if the girl hadn't told her in advance that she would only use to be honest and honest when she returned to the house, she would have stepped forward to teach the two of them a lesson.

The two maids have been standing at the door, and when they looked up, they saw the three girls walking towards the two of them after cleaning up, and smiled softly at the two of them: "This summer, you two are tired of standing here, go back and rest." These things are what Mama Zhou and I are used to doing in the temple, and we don't need your help, so let's go back and rest." ”

The two girls were originally the eldest lady who wanted to come to see Heluo's eyeliner, but the weather was really hot, not to mention, the three girls looked like they were kind and talkative, so they naturally wanted to go down to rest, and they went down after a few words.

Heluo closed the door after the two left, but did not go back to the back room, and sat on a chair in the hall slowly sipping tea, as if he expected someone to come.

Who would have thought, after a while, the door of the hall was really pushed open, and it was actually the older one of the two girls just now.

I saw that after the girl came in, she straightened her skirt, bowed deeply to Heluo, and said, "Tinglan to meet the girl." ”

Heluo stretched out his hand to get him up, and asked Mama Zhou to guard outside, and then said: "After all, I just returned home, and it is the time to attract attention, why do you have to see me at this time?"

Tinglan didn't dare, since she received Mama's letter, she knew that the girl must be planning for this matter. Tinglan knew one thing and didn't dare to hide it from the girl. ”

Seeing that he was serious, Heluo motioned for him to continue.

"The eldest lady's maiden nephew is named Du Yingge, and he is living in the house with his uncle and wife, because he said that he came to visit the eldest lady, the old lady and the old man didn't say anything, so they let them stay. It's just that although this Du Gongzi is not very good inside, he has a good face. Although the second aunt asked the eldest lady for grace for the second girl, the two girls did not hesitate to be blessed and secretly got along with this Du Gongzi. ”

When Heluo heard this, his face was shocked, and he couldn't help asking, "Where did you get this news, but it's accurate?"

Ting Lan hurriedly said: "Don't dare to lie to the girl, the girl knows that the second sister of the slave maid is on an errand in the big kitchen, and since she knew that the eldest lady wants the girl to marry this Du Gongzi, because it is a foreign man, it is not easy to see the slave and maid on weekdays, so I asked my sister to help watch this Du Gongzi." Who knows, this stare really found out something, then Du Gongzi was quite honest at the beginning, who would have thought that he would have secretly communicated with the second girl a long time ago. One day, the second sister saw him go to the grove in the house, so she followed him, and saw that it was the second girl who met him. By the way, the grove is just behind the former Aunt Ran's residence. “

It's really sleepy and there is a pillow, and I was still trying to make this eldest lady disgusted, but I didn't expect this to be sent.

So Heluo instructed in Tinglan's ear, and said that let her second sister continue to follow Nadu Gongzi, and let her find out the law of the two meeting before telling her.

In Pei's Mansion, on the second day after the three girls returned home, a message began to circulate.

said that the eldest lady called the third girl back in order to marry her nephew, and naturally some people asked why, and some people replied that it was the eldest lady's previous relatives. The people who listened to it sneered and said, according to the age of the prince Du, the three girls in the house had not yet given birth when they could be married.

This rumor intensified, and naturally it reached Heluo's ears, and immediately called Mama Zhou and went straight to the old lady's yard.

Before they reached the courtyard, the people began to cry, and Ai Ai was so pitiful. The people in the bluffing courtyard hurriedly took her to see the old lady. The old lady cried early in the morning, and hurriedly asked what was wrong.

Although Heluo was young, he knew that the reputation of his daughter's family was the most important, and he didn't know where it was rumored that Heluo was engaged to his mother's nephew. Not to mention that Heluo had only just returned, and he didn't even know whether that person was Fang or Bian, so he said that Heluo was only ten years old before he left, so who could he marry? Before He Luo came, he deliberately smeared a layer of plain powder on his face, and now it looks like it is white and scary, as if he would faint at any time.

The old lady also knew that her daughter-in-law's family lived in the house, and she was a little dissatisfied, but thinking that now that the eldest lady is in charge, it is not good not to even give this face.

Now I didn't expect such a thing to happen, so I hurriedly asked the people around me to go out to investigate. After a while, the people below came back, and said that the rumor was already known to everyone, but I didn't expect it to be true.

Heluo was crying under his own care, as if he didn't see the people around the old lady going out and coming in.

The old lady had a headache when she saw this, and now it is said that the three girls of Pei Fu are filial piety, and they pray for their mother-in-law and eldest sister, and they have never asked to come back after going to the temple for two years. Now that someone has just come back, but such a thing has happened, doesn't this mean that the housewife in Pei's mansion can't even tolerate such a good daughter. It's a slap in the face.

I looked at Heluo, who was kneeling under the hall and was about to faint crying, and only sighed that although this girl was cowardly, she was good, and now she would only cry when she encountered such a thing, if she couldn't make the decision, how would she stand up in this mansion in the future.

I was thinking about calling someone to let the eldest lady come over, but I didn't expect that Heluo at the bottom had already fainted, and shouted before: "I don't want to live anymore," and the room was in chaos again, and the old lady saw it and quickly let someone carry her back.

The old lady saw that the room was quiet, so she had time to get angry, so that the next person didn't have to inform the eldest lady, and went directly to call the master back.

Pei Shizhong was still on an errand, and he was called back by someone from his family. When I heard it back, I was naturally furious. looked down on the eldest lady, and if it weren't for his own situation in the early years, he wouldn't have married her. Thinking of Heluo, he also owed a lot to this daughter, so he decided to go and see this daughter.

By the time Master Pei came to Heluo's room, Heluo had already woken up, leaning on the head of the bed, looking at the things in the room with blank eyes. When Mama Zhou stepped forward to tell her that Master Pei was coming, Heluo's eyes widened, as if she didn't believe that Master Pei would come to see her, but looking at Master Pei, Heluo also showed a weak but surprised smile, and shouted: "Daddy" The voice was full of admiration for Master Pei.

When Master Pei saw this daughter's similar face to Aunt Ran, and saw that there was no problem in her smile because of these things, he couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little more pity for Heluo, and when he saw that Heluo was about to get up, he hurriedly stopped her,

said: "Your body is not good, this time your mother did not do it right, and Daddy will definitely make decisions for you."

Heluo hurriedly replied: "I don't blame my mother, it's just that Heluo was frightened when he heard about this at first glance, thinking that it was a rumor spread by someone in the house because he didn't like Heluo coming back." People say that the matter of marriage is often the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. Mother is the most disciplined, how could she do such a thing, only hate traitors and do evil. After saying that, there was another sob.

Master Pei looked at his little daughter's innocent eyes, and when he saw that at this time, Heluo was still excusing the eldest lady and was pleased with his daughter's kindness, and his dissatisfaction with the eldest lady intensified a little in his heart. When he didn't know what this marriage was all about, how could this short-sighted woman be the mother of the family. After comforting Heluo for a few words, he left in a hurry.

When Heluo saw the back of Master Pei leaving, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he said in his heart: It's not enough, mother, my daughter has prepared you for far more than that.

asked Mama Zhou to find Tinglan, and after giving her a fragrant thing, she gave her some orders in her ear.

On the second day, there was no news of the eldest lady being punished in the house, and He Luo thought that it was because Master Pei was ruthless when he saw the eldest sister and the eldest prince who went out to study. I have to help him.

After preparing some things, I went to the study to meet Master Pei in person.

Master Pei was very surprised when he saw Heluo coming, but he still let her sit down. Then he said, "You are not well yet, why are you up?"

After hearing this, Heluo smiled slightly, as if she was embarrassed: "My daughter just came back the day before yesterday, and she should have come to greet her father, but something like that happened yesterday made her father come to see Heluo in his busy schedule, and Heluo really couldn't get over it psychologically."

The weather is hot these days, and my daughter has heard that my father is very busy with errands, so I must be a little bored in my heart, remembering that my aunt said that my father loves the bamboo leaf fragrant tea she made the most, and the bamboo leaves can purify my heart the most. ”

While speaking, Heluo took out the prepared bamboo leaf incense from the jar, boiled the water and scalded the cup, washed the tea and brewed it in one go, the action was like flowing clouds and water, which was very pleasing to the eye. After doing this, Heluo handed a teacup to Master Pei, and said: "My aunt always told me that my father loved the bamboo leaves she brewed, and Heluo always remembered it in her heart, and always thought about the way of the scholar's aunt to make this tea in the temple, but she couldn't make that taste." This is already the best of the Heluo system, and I want my father to drink it. ”

Master Pei, after taking the cup, sighed in his heart, thinking of Aunt Ran's supple and well-behaved thoughts at that time, he was very sad in his heart.

"Heluo has only come back in the past few days, but he has missed the death day of his aunt. He Luo always missed going to his aunt's yard to see, He Luo knew that it was not in order, so he just wanted to go back at night when no one was around, and hoped that his father would allow it. ”

Master Pei looked at Heluo with some pleading eyes, sighed, and said: "You should also go and see, after all, you can't pay tribute on weekdays, it's good to go and see it, it's not good for you to go alone at night, Daddy will go with you." ”

Heluo was overjoyed when he heard this, if this Master Pei didn't agree, he still wanted to persuade him, but now it's good.
