Chapter 137: Old Scheming
The only thing is that he is corrupt and perverts the law, and provokes the county lord's eight pole relatives, and some people ask for the county lord's door, he has seen a lot of this kind of thing, and the county lord will personally ask about it, either the county lord does not have enough brains, and he uses chicken feathers as an arrow, and he has nothing to do, or the grievances are too big and obvious.
Whatever it is, since he knows it, he must carefully investigate it so as not to offend people.
"Yes, old lady, my grandson will leave in a moment. "Sun Yuansheng has always been obedient to Old Lady Sun, and he doesn't dare to disobey, not to mention that this is a trivial matter.
"As for the Ningfu County Lord's Mansion, Daughter-in-law Sun, tomorrow, you can pick a few things that the Ningfu County Lord likes as a return gift and send them over, it doesn't need to be too valuable, just do what you like, don't send it personally, just send your mother-in-law over. Old lady Sun instructed Shen Yao again, but after hesitating for a moment, she said, "Don't go to the Chengjun Wangfu for the time being, and I heard that your own mother is not feeling well, and you should go back to see if you are a daughter, and enter into filial piety."
Shen Yao agreed one by one, and secretly said, visiting her stepmother is fake, this old man Sun wants to let him go home to explore his father's mouth, right?
Since marrying into the Sun family, she has learned a lot of things, many people are different in the way of officials, her father is a practical type, hard work, and climb up with the official voice of political achievements, but this old man Sun is a keen decision-maker, speculating on the intentions of all parties, when there are disputes in the court, he often looks at the overall situation, speculates on the holy will, and preemptively stands in the team of the big winner, so slowly, it seems to be in the court. He was always right in his opinions, and he got a good reputation for being a visionary.
In fact, he is more good at drilling, and he really wants him to solve any problems, but he doesn't have the ability.
However, the court mixed better. Most of them are such people, because they are not easy to make mistakes, as long as they go along with the right side, echo it, and after a few times, the good advice proposed by people with lower official positions than him will become what he proposed. And those with higher official positions than him will also be grateful for his support.
The court also needs such a sleek man.
Just like now, the Imperial Historian seems to want to make a big fuss about the affairs of the Chengjun Palace, and when the situation is unclear, Old Man Sun preemptively let her walk around, spy on the truth of the whole incident, and gain insight into the opportunity to make decisions.
Inside the Far Pingbo Mansion.
Su Yihua also heard about the fire in the Ningfu County Lord's Mansion, and was discussing with Su Yirong whether to go over and have a look, she had already sent her mother-in-law to visit before, but she didn't go in person, which seemed a little insincere.
This mention was rejected by Su Yirong.
Su Yihua wondered, "Eldest sister." There is such a big incident in the Ninth Sister Mansion, how can we, as sisters, ignore it?"
In terms of feelings, the relationship between the eldest sister and the ninth sister is relatively deep, and in terms of friendship, the eldest sister's mother-in-law's house is the ninth sister's foreign family, so the eldest sister should go there.
Su Yirong was holding a filial piety robe and gesturing, and said lightly: "Did the ninth sister send someone to tell her about the fire in the house?"
Su Yihua shook his head.
Su Yirong put down the clothes in his hand. picked up a pair of small pants to check, and asked, "Does anyone in your princess's mansion let you go and see it?"
Su Yihua shook his head again.
"That's right, since no one mentioned it, so many elders are here, what is your turn to worry about?" Su Yirong put filial piety clothes and pants together to admire.
Su Yihua looked enviously at the eldest sister wearing red clothes and ruddy face, women, it is better to marry well than to give birth, the eldest sister has a strong belly, and she has two sons in a row, even if her husband is weak-hearted. The mother-in-law was a little more bitter and mean, but she was still doing well, which was like her, her belly was not angry, and she couldn't give birth to a son. It's useless to say anything.
Sensing his sister's envious gaze, Su Yirong put down the things in his hand and said angrily: "Sister, eldest sister knows what you are thinking, don't think that the eldest sister is doing well now and rely on her belly Now I can say a word, even if your eldest sister and I can't give birth to a son, life is the same, as a woman, you can't stand up, who do you expect to take care of you?"
Su Yihua was reprimanded by the eldest sister like this, lowered her head, and muttered: "This Princess Anning Mansion is different from Jinxiang Houfu, the population is much more complex, and besides, it is not very bad for me on a fair day, if it weren't for my bad stomach, he wouldn't ...... Eldest sister...... I don't want to be like Aunt San. ”
"I said what are you good about? I don't want to be like the third aunt, do you want to be like the fourth aunt before?" Su Yirong poked Su Yihua's head hatefully, "Both men and women are the same in this world, you have to help him solve the matter, you are busy and sweaty, he came back and saw a clean house, eating hot tea and hot rice, and turned around to find fault with you who made yourself unkempt for this, but if you don't do anything, just clean yourself up beautifully, although he will be dissatisfied, at least he will not dislike you, if you do one more thing, such as making hot tea and cooking, and not tidying up the house, he will do it himself." ”
"Eldest sister, what, how are you, how are you ......" Su Yihua was stunned by the eldest sister's remarks of such a market woman, when did the dignified and elegant eldest sister say such a thing in her mouth?
Su Yirong sneered: "Just my mother-in-law, what kind of grooming and cultivation benefits you tell her are all in vain, and my husband, there is no shortage of people who talk about poetry and painting with him, why should I write crepe again, or the reason just now, if a man likes a clean house, if you don't clean up, he will clean it up himself, and when he is tired of doing it himself, he can understand your hard work, you have to help him do everything well, he feels how great he is." ”
"But eldest sister, this time is not a trivial matter, if it is a big trouble, my father-in-law's future will be gone. Su Yihua couldn't bear it, after all, it was a husband and wife.
Su Yirong's expression was very disdainful: "When the sky falls, there is still his princess mother, and two elder brothers, the man is causing trouble outside, it is your turn to carry it for him? If you really want to make trouble, will his princess mother be grateful to you for solving the problem for his son, or blame you for being unvirtuous? I didn't persuade my son to do foolish things, it's not that I am mean, with Princess An Ning's person, I will even say that this matter is caused by your mother's sister, maybe this business is all done by you instigating her baby son, listen to the eldest sister, don't care about anything, don't know, do more wrong, A man's future depends on a woman to fight for it, what other skills does this man have? Go home as soon as possible to rest, lest he be calculated outside. ”
After some persuasion from the eldest sister, Su Yihua still nodded and decided to stay in Yuanpingbo Mansion for a few more days.
That night, the three rooms of Princess Anning's mansion were in chaos.
Aunt Mo, who was pregnant with Liujia in the third room, didn't know how to move the fetus, holding her stomach and shouting pain, Su Yihua was not there, Li Tong didn't know where to go, and the subordinates didn't dare to take responsibility, so they quickly reported to Princess An Ning.
The first child in the third room, Princess An Ning attached great importance to it, and invited the imperial doctor to come to the house to diagnose it, not to mention, but also to visit in person.
After the diagnosis, the doctor said that he was overthinking and frightened, Aunt Mo's body and bones were already weak, and even if the fetus could be saved, she was afraid that she would be a little weak if she was barely born.
Princess An Ning was furious, she attached importance to the child in Aunt Mo's womb that everyone knew, so she also let her personal grandmother and the two maids around her take care of Aunt Mo, and she went directly from her side for whatever she ate, without going through Su Yihua, in order to let Aunt Mo raise the baby with peace of mind, who knew that this kind of thing still happened.
In a fit of rage, Princess An Ning instructed Mama Lan beside her to call out all the slaves and maids in Aunt Mo's small courtyard, and if she couldn't tell the reason why Aunt Mo was frightened, they all hit the board and drove them out.
Princess An Ning disdained to interrogate her subordinates in person, and walked away after giving the order, and the maids and women in the courtyard were all trembling, you look at me, I will see that you can't tell you why, the reason may not be known, but no one dares to say.
Mama Lan's cold gaze swept over the maid who was kneeling on the ground, and her eyes fell on the personal maid Li'er brought by Aunt Mo herself, and said lightly: "Li'er, you say." ”
"Slave, slave doesn't know. Pear fell to the ground, her body shaking.
Mama Lan didn't raise her eyelids, and the two sturdy servants beside her immediately understood, and immediately took two steps forward, grabbed the pear, which was two big-mouthed scrapers, and beat the pear until her skin was broken and her face was swollen, and Mama Lan said slowly: "Cheap maid, now it's the princess who wants to ask, you still dare to help conceal it, if you really don't know anything, it's a dereliction of duty, what use do you want, but the lame man in the concierge still lacks a wife, he doesn't need to do anything, it's just a woman, I think you can give it to the lame man." ”
"No, said the slave. Li'er was scared, this lame man was ugly and short-tempered, but because his leg was lame to save the third son who ran out of the street and was almost hit by a car when he was a child, so Sanfang took him as a benefactor, so let him see a corner door that was barely opened, let him take the monthly money for nothing, and give him a daughter-in-law, but the daughter-in-law was beaten and scolded by the irascible Zhang lame all day long, and she couldn't think about it some time ago, so she hanged herself.
Now when I hear that marrying Zhang Cripple, it is really worse than being pulled out and sold.
Li'er still dared to hide it, and hurriedly said, "It's Aunt Mo...... Aunt Mo's family, no, something happened to her mother's family, Aunt Mo's brother disappeared for several days, Aunt Mo was anxious, so she was worried, and someone in the Mo family sent trust today, saying that Aunt Mo's brother was found, but someone broke a leg, so Aunt Mo was scared. ”
"Ridiculous, what's going on with Aunt Mo's family, don't you know if your aunt is pregnant? Mama Lan frowned, and scolded again, "Bold and cheap, if there is anything you haven't said, just say it once, I will tell you clearly, one of the maids in this yard must follow Zhang Cripple, just look at your most useless, I don't know if you ask three questions." ”
