Chapter 25: The Hunger Strike

The sun shines through the clouds and smiles. The snow slowly began to melt.

The snow is not cold, and the weather is naturally colder.

However, in the conservatory of Tian Yunyuan, it has become an excellent place to go. It can bask in the sun, bright and warm.

Not only did the six girls who often come come over with needles and threads, but also Shuangniang and Siniang came over for the first time.

"It's a pity that the eldest sister is not here, and the third sister is in the palace again. Otherwise, our sisters will be lively. Liuniang stared at the embroidery shed in her hand and said with a smile. Her aunt is not easy to say, but the embroidery skills are good. She learned a lot along with it. And my aunt is not an eventful person, she never meddles in the affairs of her house. Just take care of her body. Except for needlework for her, staring at her eating and dressing, nothing else touches. The two also get along very easily. Her mood improved, and she hoped that there would be more people.

"It's not good. Siniang held the book in her hand and replied without raising her head, "Both of them love to manage people, and I don't want to be taught a lesson." ”

If Yuan Niang was here, she would not be allowed to read in the sun, because she would hurt her eyes under the sun.

Shuangniang took the color line and took advantage of the bright light to divide the line. This is the most tedious job, and Wu Niang feels dizzy when she looks at it.

"It's good to ask the girl to fiddle, why are you bothered. Yun Wuniang felt that it was a waste of eyes.

Yun Shuangniang smiled and didn't speak, this is filial piety to her mother-in-law. She has never borrowed the hand of an adult. Since my aunt went to stand up for the rules two days ago, my wife has sent a message to the sewing room, and she will do it tightly in her gown first. This made her feel a lot more at ease.

The corners of Siniang's mouth twitched, and she said: "I see that the second aunt is much more attentive to the two new girls than the second sister." It's a loss to the second sister for her good self-cultivation. ”

Yun Wuniang wanted to kick Siniang. That's what this thing says, she knows what Siniang thinks, and those who don't know can't think that this is sowing discord. And it's so obvious to pick things up.

Shuangniang smiled in her heart, pursed her lips and did not speak. If one day her grandmother treated her like this, she must not be grateful, but a little scared. She grew up next to her mother-in-law, and she also knows Yan's personality very well. In this way, lukewarm and lukewarm is actually the best way to get along.

Yun Wuniang was afraid that Siniang would say something again, so she quickly changed the topic and said, "If it's such a good day every day, when the snow melts, you can go out." It wasn't as cold as it is now. ”

"What are you doing in a hurry to go out. Yun Siniang really forgot about the previous incident.

Liu Niang snickered on the side.

Can Yun Wuniang say that she is in a hurry to see her brother? She smiled: "I heard that many ladies want to go to the Temple of Mercy and Grace to worship the Buddha." ”

Because of the Buddha's light that Yuan Niang made trouble. Word of mouth has become more and more real. Yun Wuniang only didn't know what was strange inside, and talked about it very naturally. This kind of thing, if your own family is not weak-minded, no matter how much others guess, it will be useless if there is no evidence. She felt that if she took this thing as true, she could blind others.

The three of them put down the things in their hands and looked at Wu Niang. Yun Wu Niangwu was holding a small watering can and watering these flowers.

Siniang put down the book in her hand and said, "This is a good idea." I have time to mention to my grandmother, let's go! This kind of thing is not common. ”

It's like the truth. Yun Wuniang said in her heart, in the future, she will treat Siniang as a person with a mouth and no heart, she is a mallet. When it was time to understand, Siniang was never ambiguous.

Several people tacitly glanced at each other, and then staggered away. Now that Yuan Niang has taken this step, can they still dismantle the stage? Even if the stage is demolished, the reputation will not be returned. It's better to find a way to save it, and how much can be remedied.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and the sisters were busy with a tacit understanding, as if nothing had happened just now.

When Red Pepper ran in, she was still panting: "Girl, Mrs. sent someone to pick up the eldest girl." ”

Bring people back at this time!

"You know why. Shuangniang's face turned pale and asked. Her courtesy is just around the corner, and when the guests mention Yuan Niang, they may not be able to sneer. How can it be at such a time.

"The eldest lady is sick. Red Pepper replied.

"Sick! Siniang said: "I didn't hear the imperial doctor." ”

Red Pepper was a little speechless and stopped, and glanced at Yun Wuniang.

Wu Niang said: "None of them are outsiders, if you know something, you can say it quickly." ”

"I was familiar with Sister Fuchen, who was next to the eldest lady, and I heard her say that the eldest lady had been on a hunger strike since the day she knew that the eldest girl had not returned. Red Pepper whispered.

"Hunger strike!" The small watering can in Wu Niang's hand fell to the ground. This is to force the big sister to come home.

It seems that the Bai family is extremely disapproving of Yuan Niang's approach.

Shuangniang's face turned whiter: "Mrs. often goes to Qianyunju these days. ”

Qianyunju is the courtyard of the eldest lady, she does not go out of the courtyard all the year round, and worships the Buddha alone. I don't like to be disturbed.

Wu Niang has grown so big that she has never entered the shallow cloud residence. I have never heard of how good the relationship between the Yan family and the Bai family is. How can you be so dignified, you often go to Qianyunju.

Coincidentally, Bai became ill. 's mother is going on a hunger strike and is dying, can Yuan Niang still stay outside with peace of mind.

This is to force Yuan Niang back.

But what can you do if you ask Yuan Niang to come back? In addition to attracting more people's attention, in addition to making people more criticized, what other intentions are not successful.

Wu Niang suddenly felt that things were not simple.

But can it be stopped?

Who can stop this kind of thing?

Shallow cloud dwelling.

Yun Jiahe looked at his mother lying on the kang with a pale face, and only felt very weak: "Mother, you don't agree with my sister's matter, I know." However, for the sake of my sister's future, I'll pick up someone again after a while. You can't believe the words of the second aunt. Don't forget that there is also a royal concubine in the palace. She can't see her sister's good. ”

"I know!" A trace of persistence flashed in Bai's eyes, "Your second aunt said, she had no way before, but now there are two stunning girls in the house, and she has a way to cover up the past." With a newcomer, where will the emperor remember Yuan Niang. ”

"Your second aunt has already begged the imperial concubine to find a good relationship for your sister. She was referring to Prince Jane. Prince Jane is in charge of the clan, and I heard that he is only thirty years old. Although it is a continuation of the family, it is the prince and princess who are serious. It's better than being a concubine. ”

"I also know that your sister is a strong person, and ordinary people are afraid that they can't hold her. Originally, I was going to marry her back to your grandfather's family. Now, it doesn't work. She's high-spirited, your cousin, and she can't hold her heart. It's better to follow her! Prince Jane's continuation is excellent. ”

"Although Prince Jane has a concubine, if she learns from the old lady of our family, she should be more relaxed. If she gives birth to a son in the future, she will be an auxiliary general, so it will not be an insult to her. Don't worry, my mother won't hurt her. ”

"As for your second aunt, she should have listened to the words of the imperial concubine. The reason why the imperial concubine is like this is, on the one hand, because she is afraid that the emperor will treat your sister differently than others. When a woman is jealous, there is no reason or reason to talk about. Second, it is for the eldest prince. She didn't want the Yun family to have a concubine. The Yun family has always been the object of her struggle. Otherwise, what would she do in the palace with the three girls. ”

"Since you have entered the palace, you have not had a good life. Why bother with that? The queen of the Yuan is not the same death. ”

"If there is Prince Jane's marriage, your grandfather will not object. And your sister just met with the emperor once, and nothing happened. After a long time, naturally no one said anything. ”

Yun Jiahe seems to be very reasonable, but he is panicking for no reason. He can't care about anything else now, he just hopes that his mother will be well.

"Now that you have a number in your heart, the second aunt has already gone to pick up your sister. Mother, you can use some food. Yun Jiahe handed over the boiled white porridge, "Otherwise, I'll go find the fifth sister and order something fresh." ”

"Don't bother people. Your sister has been taken care of by Mrs. Cheng Jin these days. Stop bothering people. Bai shook his head and insisted on waiting for his daughter to come back.

Yun Jiahe couldn't, so he could only talk to his mother, trying not to make her cranky, "My mother has seen Mrs. Jin." ”

Bai Shi sighed: "She's a good person!" After saying this, he refused to speak again.

It seems that the matter of Mrs. Jin is a taboo topic in the Yun family. They all know that this person is there, and they are all in awe, but no one takes the initiative to mention her.

Mrs. Jin, who was labeled as a good person, looked at the girl who came to say goodbye through the screen and sneered slightly.

"You've figured it out, you really want to go back. This time, many things, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you anymore. Kim's voice didn't have a hint of emotion, and it sounded like it was coming from the sky.

Yuan Niang has lived in for a short time, and this is the first time she has seen Mrs. Jin. And through the screen, I can only see the figure vaguely. It was also the first time I heard Mrs. Kim's voice.

These days, people are taking care of her, and Mrs. Kim has never shown up.

It turns out that this is the biological mother of the fifth sister.

Yuan Niang reined in her heart and said: "My mother is seriously ill, no matter what is strange about this, as a daughter, I don't have the reason to ruthlessly abandon my mother." ”

I don't know which sentence touched the Kim family, her voice didn't sound as cold and hard as just now, "Since it's decided, let's go." Mark my words and don't take anyone's promises lightly. ”

A trace of incomprehension flashed on Yuan Niang's face, but she still accepted the kindness, "Mrs. Xie cares." She didn't dare to call this woman Aunt Jin, so she said before she left the door: "Fifth sister is very good! smart, lively, and cheerful." There is no one in the family who doesn't like her. With that, he withdrew.

When she was about to go out, she seemed to hear a sigh, faintly, as if in her ears, and it seemed far away. It's just inexplicable, I feel sour and astringent, not a taste.
