Chapter 721: The duel between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Fuguo Mansion

As soon as the day dawned, Mrs. Qu took someone to ask the old lady to say goodbye, the old lady is not in good health now, and she didn't let Mrs. Qu go to ask for peace all the time, especially after what happened to Yun Ya, the old lady became more and more light-hearted to Mrs. Qu, Mrs. Qu also has a self-aware name, and she will never make peace in front of her when she has nothing to do.

Today is also a rare time to come over to ask for a visit, before I entered the door, I heard what the old lady and her personal Shen Mama were saying, accompanied by laughter, it was obvious that she was in a good mood, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, her eyes flashed slightly, and she walked in with a smile on her face.

A girl had already seen her coming, and she was busy going in to report, and someone came over to pick a curtain for her.

When I entered the door, the old lady was wearing a set of autumn-colored clothes, with some longevity words embroidered on the hem, her face was good, her face was happy, and Shen Mama was looking at a few pictures on the small table on the collapse, and there were talking and laughing, the atmosphere was good, I heard Mrs. Qu come in, the old lady raised her eyes, and glanced at Mrs. Qu lightly.

"Mother is in good health today, the weather is good today, do you want to go out for a walk?" Mrs. Qu stepped forward and saluted, and asked with a smile, the weather outside is indeed good, it is the time when the autumn is high and cool, the wind is not too strong, the sun is not too big, it is the most comfortable time, many families in the capital will go out to play at this time, hang out.

It's just that the Fuguo Mansion doesn't have such a habit!

Since Luo Xia is gone, the old lady's mood has been depressed, her health is not good, and she is not in the mood, so she will not go out to hang out at this time at all, at most she will bask in the sun in the garden and walk a few steps.

Mrs. Qu's question was a little unusual, and the old lady glanced at her: "I don't go out, I don't move too lazily on weekdays, although I'm getting better this time, I can't stand walking around." ”

"Since my mother's illness is better, I naturally want to go for a walk, anyway, there is nothing to do today, so I just went to see it with my daughter-in-law, and I didn't have to be bored in the house all the time, and when Mingzhu came back, I blamed me for not taking my mother out for a walk. Mrs. Qu's attitude today was very courteous, with a smile in the corner of her eyes, and she persuaded vigorously.

"You want to go out?" the old lady has always been a smart person, and the meaning of Mrs. Qu's words was true, her brows furrowed, and she asked rather unhappily.

Mrs. Qu has gone out more times these days, and it is really not in harmony with the low-key that Lao Taijun has always advocated, and Lao Taijun was already a little unhappy.

"Mother, it's not that I'm going out, let's go and see together, just to relax, last time my daughter-in-law went out and heard that there was a shop with hundreds of years of ginseng, but because of the hurry of going out last time, so I didn't have time to see it, this time I happened to go with my mother to see, if it really has a vintage, I sold it to my mother to stay up and replenish the body." ”

Looking at the old lady's eyes that seemed to be clear about the world, Mrs. Qu panicked, but with her expression becoming more and more sincere and gentle, with a smile full of smiles, as if she really just went on such a trip for the sake of the old lady, and she looked like a good daughter-in-law who was thinking about the old lady.

"Pharmacy?" The old lady had a faint coldness in her eyes, staring at Mrs. Qu tightly, she almost didn't dare to look directly, and she wanted to wipe her head in a panic, but she felt that this would make her feel a little weak, so she had to pile up a smile that was almost stiff, and she had no stage fright.

"There aren't many good ginseng in the house, and the last time I went to see it, I ...... I thought that I would have time to go out and find some back, put them in the house, and take them out when I want to use them, so that I don't have anything to do for a while, and it is not very convenient to use. ”

"Are there any fewer medicinal materials in the house? I heard from the person who went to pick up the medicine a few days ago that there are still a lot of medicinal materials in the warehouse, and there is no need to add anything for a while, and a few months ago, another batch of new medicines came in, is there anything missing?" the old lady leaned back one by one and asked.

A big family like the Fuguo Mansion will enter a batch of medicinal materials every year, they have their own regular purchase channels, and it is often their own business, which is also safer, and there will be no mistakes.

The big families are very cautious, and they will not casually use medicine outside and buy medicine!

Asking the old lady to ask this, Mrs. Qu swallowed her saliva a little nervously, and she was worried, she originally thought that when she said this, even if the old lady didn't want to go out, she would send herself out, but no matter what it was, her goal was achieved, and she didn't expect that the old lady didn't answer her words, but asked her the amount of medicine in stock.

How could this not make the scheming Mrs. Qu nervous.

"Mother, there are medicines in the inventory, but there are not many good medicines, the ginseng that my daughter-in-law saw that day is really good, why don't my mother go and see it together, if it's not good, we won't buy it, I just thought it was good. ”

Mrs. Qu subconsciously dodged the old lady's gaze.

"You are in a vacuum now, and there is nothing to do in the house?" The old lady looked at her, and Mrs. Qu could barely hold it, so she asked lightly, her words were a little displeased, her eyes narrowed, and her faint old eyes fell on Mrs. Qu with some sharp light.

Mrs. Qu was flustered when she was watched, and she didn't think about the acknowledgment in the old lady's words for a while, and thought that she really asked her if she had finished handling the affairs of the house, so she immediately stood up straight and said: "Mother, I have already dealt with the affairs of the house, and I have arranged the tasks of the heads of various departments, and there will be no other things today." ”

"Is there anything wrong with the backyard?" asked the old lady meaningfully.

"Yes, it's really nothing, mother, don't worry, the inner courtyard of our house is the cleanest, and there is nothing important to deal with usually, I will be fine after I go out with my mother." ”

Mrs. Qu smiled again and assured, accompanied by a smiling face, her posture was lowered a few points, that appearance not only reflected a filial daughter-in-law, but also a capable daughter-in-law, who might take care of such a big mansion so organized, but not ordinary people can do it.

"Oh, our house is clean, I think of it when you say that, don't go out yet, come and see this!"

The old lady said that he pushed the scroll on the desk in front of him in the direction of Mrs. Qu, and said casually: "I'm afraid I won't be so worry-free in the future, there are many people, and it is lively, but there are also many troubles, but I, an old man, like to be lively, I can't let you bother anymore." ”

It seemed that there was something in the words, and Mrs. Qu's heart suddenly burst into the air, and she subconsciously fell on the picture scroll that Mama Shen took over, and she had a bad premonition in her heart, her eyelids jumped, and she settled down to take the picture scroll in Mama Shen's hand, and looked at them one by one, none of them were not beautiful young ladies, and they all looked enchanting and colorful.

"Mother, this is ......" Mrs. Qu's eyes fell on the bewitching face of the woman in the painting, and she swallowed nervously, with vigilance in her eyes.

"There are really fewer people in this house, so we have to have a few people to be lively, and there can't be too few heirs, like ours, too few heirs, which means that they are not prosperous and underdeveloped. ”

The old lady seemed to explain and talk to herself, took the tea from Mama Shen, took a sip, and didn't look at Mrs. Qu's slow words.

"Mother, this is to choose a wife for the son? The daughter-in-law is also familiar with the thousands of families in each family, but I can't tell which daughters these are, why haven't I seen them. Mrs. Qu was even more puzzled in her heart, and she felt a strong uneasiness in her heart, and the handkerchief in her hand was rubbed uneasily, and she asked cautiously.

"Of course you haven't seen them, these are the daughters of small families, and the eldest one is just the daughter of a five-grade official, which is different from the people you usually come and go with. The old lady said lightly.

The people who come and go like the Fuguo Mansion are either one or two big people, or the kind of century-old family, so it is impossible to associate with the daughters of the five-rank officials, let alone those with smaller official positions.

"Then they are ...... with the prince" Such an identity and status cannot match Luo Wenyou at all.

"Second Madam, of course these women have nothing to do with the prince, think about it, how can the lady of the prince choose from these small families. Mama Shen answered with a smile.

"That'...... And...... What's going on?" This sentence almost came out of Mrs. Qu's heart, the handkerchief in her hand had already been crumpled into a ball, almost unformed, and a faint bloody breath surged up her throat.

"Of course, this is for Bin'er, he is a dignified family, and he holds an important position in the court, he can't leave without an heir, a few years ago, I thought I could always give birth to one, but now it looks like I'm older, so I just pick a few more young ones and send them in, so that Bin'er can spread the branches. ”

The old lady said.

Mrs. Qu almost spurted blood when she said this!

Luo Bin's backyard is actually not without concubines, but several aunts are a little older, and there are also aunts who were raised by the Tongfang maid ring before Mrs. Qu entered the Fuguo Mansion, which was not as good as Mrs. Qu, and under the suppression of Mrs. Qu for so many years, she was even more well-behaved, and she didn't dare to go a little wrong.

Therefore, the backyard of this Fuguo Mansion is really clean.

But if the younger ones came in, Mrs. Qu hated and angry in her heart, and the young women in the painting all had a charming face, and at a glance she knew that they were like fox spirits.

But if Luo Bin is not allowed to take a concubine, she can't say it, as a lady of the main room, she must be wise and graceful, and she can tolerate people.

"Bin'er is also older, and if he doesn't give birth to a son, he will cut off the incense in the future, and I also know that it will be difficult for you to enter a few more aunts at this time, but for Bin'er's heirs, this grievance still has to be borne by you, and there may be a period of time when you need to take care of it, which will always make you tired. ”

The old lady's words are very good, and the reason is also straight, falling to the height of the heir, Mrs. Qu even crushed the veil, and there is nothing to say, especially the next words of the old lady, which made her face abnormal, almost vomiting blood, and she, the lady of the main room, has to set a candidate today.

Three days later, she welcomed people into the door, and she would have to arrange the inner courtyard for a while, in a word, Mrs. Qu would be busy today without touching the ground, and it was impossible to have time to leave the house, disrupting her original plans!
