Chapter 224: Cloud Mud
Chapter 224 Cloud Mud
Grandma Sun respectfully agreed and withdrew.
The next morning, Li Xiaonuan went to the main courtyard to ask for peace, and took a sedan chair to the conference hall.
In front of the corner gate leading to the inner courtyard of the council hall, he got off the sedan chair, walked slowly in front of Mama Lin, who was guarding in front of the corner gate, paused, glanced at her expressionlessly, and went straight through the corner door and entered the chamber.
Mama Lin's face was pale and gray, and the leader stood with her head bowed, and this morning, she was like a strange thing, displayed in front of the housekeeper's mother-in-law and the rough envoy girl-in-law who came and went.
From last night to now, no one has reproached her, and no one has asked her a word of no matter what she said, but a little girl came, so she packed up her things and moved to the miscellaneous courtyard outside the back corner door, and let her stand at this corner door as a rough envoy guarding the door.
Mama Lin was so bitter in her throat that she couldn't swallow or spit it out, Mama Qiu came to see her early in the morning, but she only stood and watched from a distance, and then went straight past her and went to the conference hall.
I have been a slave for decades, and I only tasted the taste of being a slave today, but it turned out that I couldn't make a mistake.
The housekeeper waiting in the east and west compartments was much quieter than usual, and Mama Qiu sat on the round stool in front of the window with a gloomy face, looking at the green vines and bamboos hanging on the verandah outside the window, and the potted loads hanging on the verandah seemed to be getting better day by day.
Li Xiaonuan leisurely walked into the conference hall along the hand-copying verandah, and after a while, the cicada wings came out to signal, and the mothers-in-law waiting in the wing room went in more cautiously and cautiously than usual according to the order of the painting.
Li Xiaonuan sat on the couch, lowering her eyes, bowing her head and drinking a cup of tea.
"Young lady Hui, the things taken out of the winter solstice feast have been counted and collected, and the rewards everywhere are still routine."
"Thank you for your hard work."
Li Xiaonuan put down the cup and said lightly, Mama Qiu looked up at Li Xiaonuan, hesitated slightly, and then said:
"Mama Lin in the courtyard of the young lady, her father originally followed the old prince to the army, and later in order to save the prince, he lost a leg, and until he died, he was worshiped by the house.
Li Xiaonuan looked at Mama Qiu expressionlessly, and when she saw that she was silent, she said indifferently:
"I know, is there anything else?"
Mama Qiu's face turned purple, and she stayed for a moment before she gritted her teeth and said:
"Since the young lady thinks she is not good, the old slave will arrange another errand for her."
Li Xiaonuan looked at Mama Qiu speechlessly, stretched out her hand and picked up the cup, looked left and right with cicada wings, stepped forward and said with a smile:
"Mama is really old and confused, in our house, when has there ever been a slave arranging a messenger for a slave? Mama speaks later, but she has to be careful, if she messes up the rules like this, won't Mama say it and slap the princess in the face? ”
Mama Qiu took a breath and stared at the cicada wings fiercely, Li Xiaonuan put down the cup heavily, stared straight at Mama Qiu, and said in an indifferent voice with a hint of coldness:
"Mother's good nature, but you are used to losing temper, you probably forget, your temper, the master let you have it, you can have it"
Mama Qiu stared at Li Xiaonuan angrily, Li Xiaonuan spat out sullenly and said in a lazy voice:
"Mama, I read that you are your mother's dowry girl, and you have been waiting by your mother's side for most of your life, if you have no end, it will not be interesting, but you should talk about it, at this time, I will send someone to sell you immediately, all over the capital, who can stop you back?"
Mama Qiu's face was blue for a while and purple for a while, her lips trembled, and she couldn't speak for a while, Li Xiaonuan looked her up and down, smiled and said:
"Don't tell me that the house only knows how to buy people, and there has never been a rule for selling people, just from you, from me, I said yes, and there will be."
After Li Xiaonuan finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the cicada wings and commanded:
"Mama is sick and has a heart disease, just find a mother-in-law and accompany Mama to her mother's place, this heart disease, let alone have to rest for half a year"
Cicada Wing respectfully agreed, lowered his hand and retreated, Li Xiaonuan turned his head to look at Mama Qiu, whose face was gray, sighed and said:
"I have a lot of things to do, but I don't have the time to be naughty with you and the minions of this full house, you think too highly of yourself, do you really think you can fight with me? Where am I standing? Where do you stand? Between the clouds and mud, where does this trick start? ”
Mama Qiu's face was like ashes, and the cicada wings led a mother-in-law in, glanced at Li Xiaonuan, and told her mother-in-law with a smile,
"Mama's heart is broken, you carefully help Mama to the main courtyard."
The mother-in-law didn't dare to look up at Li Xiaonuan, her legs were slightly stumbling, and she helped Mama Qiu out of the house.
Li Xiaonuan breathed a sigh of relief, leaned back on the pillow, pointed to a few raisins next to him, motioned for the cicada wings to come over, and said with a smile:
"Let's take a break, wait for her to cry slowly, and then go to the main courtyard."
Cicada Wing hurriedly served the glass bowl full of raisins, and asked in a slightly worried whisper:
"Young lady, in this way, are you okay? Ask Mama Wei for the imperial doctor, should the young lady talk to the princess first? ”
"No, you don't."
Li Xiaonuan hung her head, picked up the raisins, put them in her mouth and chewed slowly, the princess already knew this clearly, if she didn't mention it, she wouldn't have to say it again, this matter, if nothing happened, it was okay, if there was something, the princess just didn't know, this responsibility was her own, if she waited for a while, the princess mentioned this, alas, let's talk about it, Mama's illness must be treated well no matter what, no matter what, she can't wronged Mama Wei.
"It's okay, I'm here."
Li Xiaonuan raised her head, looked at the cicada wings with a worried face, and said with a smile. After slowly rubbing for half an hour, Li Xiaonuan got up, walked out of the meeting hall, got into a sedan chair and went to the main courtyard.
Mama Qiu had already left the main courtyard, the princess sighed, took the tea served by Li Xiaonuan, motioned for her to sit on the couch, and said sadly:
"You say, this person is old, this body is not as good as day by day, when Mama Qiu followed me, how young a little girl was, now she is going to die old."
Li Xiaonuan looked at the princess with a smile and explained:
"Mama Qiu has followed her mother, and after working hard for so many years, it is time to go back to enjoy the blessings of her children and grandchildren, and to take care of her in the future, her mother often called her in to talk."
"Well, that's what you're talking about, it's also in your fifties."
"The princess doesn't know yet, Mama Qiu's daughter-in-law already has a body, that is, next year, Mama Qiu will have a grandson, she's afraid she's in a hurry to go back and hug her grandson."
Xu Shi joked with a smile on his face next to him, and the princess raised her eyebrows and turned her head to look at Xu.
"Really? This Qiu'er, don't tell me a word."
"Tell the princess, isn't that a clear reward?"
Xu said with a smile, and the princess laughed,
"It's also this Li'er, Ke's daughter-in-law,"
The princess turned her head to look at Li Xiaonuan and ordered:
"Let people pick something that pregnant women can eat and send it, and it will be my reward."
Li Xiaonuan agreed with a smile, she was just too lazy to fight with the minions, as long as she left, she would not be harsh to her.
In the afternoon, a happy letter came from King Jing's Mansion, Sun Wanruo was diagnosed as pregnant, and the next day, another joy was added, and Dai Jingyu was also diagnosed with a happy pulse, which became a double happiness.
Cheng Guifei was very happy, and rewarded countless things like flowing water, Li Xiaonuan and the princess discussed, and extremely cautiously sent two copies of the same extremely valuable gold and jade pendants and ornaments, clothes, ingredients, fetal medicine and other close things, and did not dare to send them into King Jing's Mansion for half a minute.
In a blink of an eye, it was already the end of November, and it was about to enter the wax moon, Imperial Doctor Song came two more times, adjusted the second prescription, Mama Tian sent a good Suhexiang wine over, and the jade buckle waited for Mama Wei to drink a cup before going to bed every night, and by the end of the month, Mama Wei's complexion had improved a lot, and she was also relaxed in the sitting and sleeping room.
The body was light, Mama Wei was a little idle, and went to the warehouse with the jade buckle to pick up a few pure silk yarns, and asked for all kinds of good silk threads from the needle money room, and began to embroider clothes for Li Xiaonuan, Li Xiaonuan also knew Mama Wei's temper, but she didn't persuade her, only explained the jade button, and she must not let Mama be tired.
The capital of the month of the month was so cold that it was almost dripping into ice.
The soup kitchens in various houses have also been opened outside the city one after another, and at the gates of the city, beggars who don't know where they came out, horse gangs and caravans from the south to the north have also gathered in the capital, and it is easier to beg for food at the feet of the Son of Heaven.
From the north, like chasing the warm migratory birds, a group of beggars poured in, occupying the feng shui treasures of the sun and leeward everywhere under the city wall, among which the largest group of beggars occupied the largest feng shui treasure outside the city gate, in the group of beggars, holding their heads, squatting with yin and yang heads, all in tatters, as if more filthy than other beggars.
The beggars around him didn't seem to regard him as his kind, a little away from him, laughing, scolding, throwing stones at him, and the beggars who came back from begging also stepped forward to kick him first, or **** touched him up and down, laughing up and down:
“…… Come, little master, play it for your grandfather again, which emperor's brother-in-law are you? ……”
The beggars around laughed, this beggar who was suddenly thrown into their pile one night was crazy, and always claimed to be the prince, the emperor's brother-in-law, but this body is really white, from the night he was thrown in, he has become the new male darling of the beggar, and after a little night, he was called by the beggar and had no voice, but if it weren't for this, the beggar who couldn't even pretend to be pitiful and begging would have starved to death
A few strong beggars had eaten their fill, swayed over slowly, stood around the little young master holding their heads, squeezed each other's eyes, one beggar suddenly bent down to pick him up, and the other two beggars quickly took off the little master's pants that couldn't cover his buttocks at all, and pressed him on the cold broken car next to him......
I just returned to the company, and I couldn't afford to hurt the code word at work, and I was in tears
