Mrs. Liang took the one hundred taels of silver and glanced at Mama Qiu, but she didn't say anything more, just folded the one hundred taels of silver, put it into her sleeve, and said: "I have to see with my own eyes what kind of second girl of the Lin family is, I will confiscate the bribe you received privately, if it is good, I will reward you, if it is not good, it is mine." ”

Mama Qiu also laughed on the side: "Ancestor, you said that I am so rich that I can't afford this hundred taels of silver, what about yourself? Our family is just a small oil pot, but you are a big oil mill." At such an old age, I finally accepted the bribe and asked you to accept it. ”

Mrs. Liang was amused by her: "Look at your little family, a hundred taels of silver will kill you!"

After laughing, I asked her, "What's your name?" On the day of the spring feast, I want to take a closer look. ”

Mama Qiu said: "My girl's name is Ruoxuan, but I don't know if I can make it on the day of the spring banquet." ”

Mrs. Liang said with a smile: "It will definitely come to work, otherwise it would be in vain for these girls to do all this." You go and ask me about the second girl of the Lin family. ”

Mama Qiu smiled and nodded in response to the retreat, called the maids outside to come in and wait, and when she went out, she saw Liang Jingzhi waiting outside the courtyard gate, Mama Qiu pursed her lips and greeted her with a smile: "The second master came to greet the old lady?"

Liang Jingzhi looked at Mama Qiu's face, but smiled and said, "I'm not here to say hello to the old lady, I'm here to say hello to Mama." ”

Mama Qiu smiled, hurriedly helped Liang Jing to get up, and went to the rockery with him: "I don't dare to be it." ”

Liang Jing knew: "Those little girls are acting recklessly, and I hope that Mama will take care of them for you, don't let the old lady be angry with them." ”

Mama Qiu said with a smile: "The old lady is sharp-eyed, no matter how thoughtful I am, I can't escape the old lady's eyes, but fortunately, now this second girl has been named with the old lady, and whether it can be done in the future depends on the luck of the second girl." But ......"

Liang Jingzhi saw that Mama Qiu's expression was different, and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

Mama Qiu said: "I think it's not difficult for this second girl Lin to pass the old lady's level, but after all, she is a concubine." My wife didn't like it very much. ”

Liang Jing was solemn when he heard this, and said to Mama Qiu again: "I know, thank you Mama." ”

Mama Qiu nodded and sent him away. Liang Jingzhi suddenly remembered something, turned his head to Mama Qiu and smiled: "If it is done, I will repay you ten times as much as the one hundred taels of silver you were given by Lu Yan." ”

As he spoke, he smiled and walked away quickly, leaving Mama Qiu behind her with a smile on her lips and glancing at his dashing back and scolding in a low voice: "It's also a naughty monkey! It's rare for Liang Jingzhi to be in such a good mood, and he thinks that this girl is also very much liked by him, so he will be willing to indulge those girls like this.

In the evening, Liang Zhiyuan returned home and returned from the old lady with Mrs. Liang, and Mrs. Liang began to chatter with him about Liang Jingzhi's marriage.

Liang Jingzhi came to greet his parents, and at the door, he heard Mrs. Liang and Liang Zhiyuan complaining: "...... The old lady actually wanted to tell Jing Zhi about a concubine! What kind of person we Jing Zhi is, not to mention our family's family background, he is young. If you say that for the sake of the master, for the sake of our Liang family, we can't marry a young lady from the princely and noble Qi family, then we must also marry a thousand noble young ladies to come over! The old lady actually wants to marry a down-and-out concubine for Jing Zhi, and I will not allow this matter no matter what!"

Liang Jingzhi stood by the door and listened to it accidentally, Mrs. Liang's personal maid Baohuan heard Mrs. Liang's voice shouting louder and louder, and it was very inappropriate to see Liang Jingzhi standing on the porch. was about to go to report, but Liang Jingzhi stopped her: "No need, since my father and mother have something to discuss, I won't go in, but fortunately, I have also met when I have dinner at the old lady's place in the evening." I'll go back first, and you don't have to tell your wife that I've been here. ”

Baohuan was very at a loss, Liang Jingzhi knew that she was loyal to Mrs. Liang, so he didn't embarrass her, and just smiled and said, "You come with me, I have two words to tell you." ”

Baohuan followed Liang Jingzhi to a no-man's land. Liang Jingzhi explained to her in a low voice.

Baohuan listened to Liang Jingzhi's words, so he also nodded and smiled: "That's true, what the second master said is that this can also make Mrs. feel relieved." ”

Liang Jingzhi nodded and said with a smile: "Just don't say that I taught you." ”

Baohuan hurriedly nodded in response: "I know this, so naturally I don't dare." ”

Liang Jingzhi resigned and left.

I don't know what Mrs. Liang and Liang Zhiyuan said that night, but on the second day, Mrs. Liang was still frowning, full of anger, but if anyone did something unsatisfactory, it was a beating and scolding.

Grandma Liang and Uncle Liang came to ask for peace in the morning, and Mrs. Liang never gave a good face. Just looked at the unruly Grandma Liang and became more and more angry.

It wasn't until the old lady had eaten that Mrs. Liang had to go back, Baohuan stepped forward to serve tea, and replied with a smile: "Grandma Shicai sent someone to spread the word, saying that she was busy with the spring banquet, so she wouldn't come to eat with her at noon." ”

When Mrs. Liang heard this, she slapped the table angrily: "Busy and busy, let her be busy to death! Even my mother-in-law is not good at serving, when the trivial affairs of the Liang family were in my hands, I didn't see me not going to eat with the old lady, she didn't know what it meant to be three from four virtues! What is a woman's way! I just put a little more power in her hand, and she kicked her nose and called her the overlord! After the time come, I begged her, and I went to serve her to eat!"

Baohuan hurriedly stepped forward to persuade for a long time, and Mrs. Liang was angry before gradually stopping. Now Mrs. Liang thought about Baohuan's seemingly casual words again, but suddenly fell silent. These in-laws and young ladies, all of them are flying and domineering, and they have already come to such a grandmother to make her feel uneasy, if there is another such and such a ...... It's better to be a concubine, if she can be gentle, she can knead and pinch as much as she wants.

Besides, the Lin family is already such a family, what is the difference between being a concubine and a concubine.

It seems that on the day of the spring banquet, it is still necessary to have a good life, take a look at the second girl of the Lin family.

Let's say that in addition to asking Mrs. Wang for peace these days, Lin Zhixuan has almost stayed at home to make clothes for Lin Ruoxuan wholeheartedly, Lin Ruoxuan's needlework is also getting better and better, and the square handkerchief that Lin Zhixuan asked her to embroider is almost complete, but the pattern is no longer Yutang is rich and noble, but the phoenix wears peonies.
