Chapter 57: Traces of the Past
Listening to the snow hall, the old lady sat on the pillow and drooped her eyelids as if she was settled, but her heart was turbulent, and she couldn't calm down for a long time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
I heard the meaning of the eldest daughter-in-law just now, and I seem to know something. It's just that as far as she knows, only she and her eldest son know・・・・・・, how did she know?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Mama Gu who was standing on the side. At this moment, the maids in the house automatically avoided going out, and only Mama Gu was left.
In addition to their mother and son, only Mama Gu knows something about that matter, could it be that the eldest lady has reached out to herself?
Mama Gu seemed to know what the old lady was thinking, so she knelt on the ground with a "poof" and said categorically: "Miss, the slave doesn't know anything, and she hasn't talked nonsense to anyone. Don't worry, even if the slave dies, she won't betray Miss!"
The old lady seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and the expression on her face relaxed: "Okay, I didn't suspect anything about you, hurry up." At such an age, why do you kneel down at every turn?"
Mama Gu didn't get up, she glanced outside, lowered her voice and said, "Miss, someone did want to buy the slave maid, but the slave refused at that time. The slave maid thought that the house was restless, so she didn't say anything, please forgive the slave and maid for not knowing!"
The old lady didn't have to think about it to know who that person was, who else could there be besides the eldest daughter-in-law? I wanted to give her a disgrace today, but I didn't expect her to use that incident to blackmail her. Hmph, it seems that you can't underestimate her in the future, she is worthy of being the eldest daughter of the Cui family, and she still has a certain skill.
Very good, since she is determined to make waves in the mansion, then she doesn't have to show mercy. Thinking of this, the old lady said to Mama Gu, "You go and call Xia Rong." ”
Mama Gu got up from the ground and whispered, "Yes!" and immediately went out to call someone.
Xia Rong is the eldest maid next to the old lady, sixteen years old this year, and her appearance is the most outstanding among the maids in the house. The old lady wanted to find a capable steward to marry her, but she was unwilling to live or die, saying that she would serve her for the rest of her life and not go anywhere.
The old lady couldn't figure out what Xia Rong was thinking for a while, and she didn't want to force her to match her. There was still a time when the eldest son came, and when she saw Xia Rong's eyes full of affection, she always peeked at the eldest son, so she understood her plan to climb the high branches.
She also found that her son didn't seem to hate Xia Rong, but because the eldest daughter-in-law was very jealous, she had to pretend not to know, and she didn't fulfill Xia Rong's intentions.
Now, she had to use Xia Rong to draw the attention of her eldest daughter-in-law and let her know that she still had the final say in this mansion.
But it was said that Mei Yixuan, after leaving Tingxue Hall with Xingyu and Piaoxue, was worried that Shengjie would be anxious after waiting for a long time in Ziyue Garden, and he didn't dare to delay all the way to Ziyue Garden.
On the way, she repeatedly pondered the abnormality of the old lady and the seemingly docile but actually sharp words of the eldest lady as she walked. She was very sure that the eldest lady held the handle of the old lady in her hand, and this handle was not trivial, which made the old lady quite jealous.
And she guessed that this handle was likely to be related to Aunt Tong. I don't blame her for thinking so, it's too obvious. The eldest lady made the old lady change her mind when she mentioned Mei Yunchen's aunts.
Mei Yunchen has a total of three concubines, which is a good man who is clean and self-conscious compared to those sons of the family who often go in and out of fireworks and willow alleys and have countless wives and concubines in the Kyoto family.
Aunt Liu is slightly smaller than Mei Yunchen, and she used to be Mei Yunchen's personal maid, and it is said that Mei Yunchen's first time was given to Aunt Liu. The relationship between the two is not deep, and I don't know if the man has a complex for the first time, but the family affection that has accompanied him since childhood is beyond doubt.
This can be seen from the fact that although Mei Shijie is a concubine, he is not discriminated against and abused like Mei Shengjie in the house.
Maybe the eldest lady knows Mei Yunchen's reverse scales, or she may know that an aunt who was born as a maid can't make big waves, so the eldest lady is very polite to Aunt Liu.
Aunt Du used to be the big maid next to the old lady, small and delicate, and understanding. Since giving birth to the third lady Mei Suxuan, she has stayed in her own Luomei Ju and easily does not come out. Unless the house needs the aunts to show up, otherwise, she will not take a single step out of Luomeiju for a day. Therefore, the eldest lady treats Aunt Du very well, and she is not as harsh on the third lady as she is to Mei Yixuan.
On the other hand, Aunt Tong, it is said that Mei Yunchen personally went to Tong's Mansion to propose marriage, and she also promised to treat her well. But after a few years of love, he was suddenly thrown into the cold palace and never returned to his former glory.
Mei Yixuan searched for her memory, and then remembered that Mei Yunchen had not stepped into the Moon Gazing Residence where Aunt Tong was since she became pregnant. Even if he gave birth to the fifth young master Mei Shengjie in the future, he never stepped into Mochizuki Residence again, isn't it strange?
If Mei Shengjie is the bloodline of the Mei family, Mei Yunchen has no reason not to look at the child. And Mei Yixuan remembered that even if Mei Yunchen saw Mei Shengjie in the mansion, he always ruthlessly ignored Mei Shengjie's eyes, longing, and admiration, and ignored Mei Shengjie's existence, which also made Mei Shengjie's young heart suffer and hurt.
Mei Yixuan thought about it, and he didn't remember what had happened before. She is thirteen years old, seven years older than Mei Shengjie, and if something important happens, there is no reason for her to forget it. Unless it's a pretty secretive thing, not many people know about it.
However, others may not know, but the old lady, Mei Yunchen, and the eldest lady must know. In addition to these three people, Aunt Tong, who is the person concerned, knows best what happened back then.
However, how should she let her tell what happened back then? As a child, although Aunt Tong is half a slave, she is Mei Yixuan's biological mother after all, how can she find out the truth of the year without hurting her?
recalled it carefully, the eldest lady began to make all kinds of difficulties and torture Aunt Tong after Mei Yunchen snubbed Aunt Tong. This woman is very good at the wind and the rudder, falling into the well, not only flattering Mei Yunchen, but also venting her personal anger, and her forbearance skills are even more first-class.
Since Aunt Tong entered the mansion, Mei Yunchen has favored her alone, and other aunts and even the eldest lady Cui Yurou rarely set foot in it. It is impossible for Cui Yurou not to be jealous in her heart, I am afraid that she can't wait for Aunt Tong, who dominates Mei Yunchen, to die, right? However, in front of people, she always looks virtuous, generous and virtuous, and has never expressed her jealous and ruthless side.
I have endured this forbearance for several years, and I can't help but say that the eldest lady Cui Yurou's city is really deep enough, so that Mei Yixuan has to admire her.
After torturing Aunt Tong and the Fifth Young Master for a few years, she has almost vented her anger, right? Now, with Mei Yixuan here, she will never allow Aunt Tong and Mei Shengjie to be abused and bullied for no reason. Even if it was Mei Yunchen, if it was too much, she would not let them be bullied.
Here, they are her Mei Yixuan's real relatives. From Aunt Tong's excited expression when she saw her, and from Mei Shengjie's admiration and closeness to herself, Mei Yixuan felt a strong family affection in ancient times. She will never allow her relatives to be trampled on, insulted, and even endanger their lives in front of her. Even if you are forced to leave here in the end, you will not hesitate!
