7. Enter the palace to see the concubine
"Sister." Liu's voice came with a little smile.
The person she called her sister looked at her, and with a little dissatisfaction, she noticed that her sister's face was too pale. The man said, "Fu'er, have you been tired lately?" โ
Liu Shi hurriedly shook his head and said embarrassedly about his pregnancy.
The man, who was the concubine, said happily, "Is it? What is the fetal like? "Concubine Shu is extremely beautiful, her complexion is like condensation, delicate and white, but her eyebrows are raised, and her Danfeng eyes are like smiling but not smiling. She wasn't like this before, but she grew like this in the palace.
Liu sweetly stroked his belly and said that the fetus was very stable, "The doctor said that as long as he recuperates, so his mother-in-law asked his younger siblings to help the housekeeper." โ
Concubine Shu raised her eyebrows, her eyes were sparkling, she glanced at the infinite style, and said hatefully: "What is there to say about this, since you are pregnant, what's wrong with the younger brother and sister housekeeper?" As long as you give birth to a child safely, can the younger siblings in the next room still shake your status? ...... "Concubine Shu is not a person of many words, and when it comes to this sister who was almost raised by herself, she can't help but preach non-stop, like an old mother."
Listening to his sister's familiar nagging, Liu couldn't help but smile. When her sister got married, she was only eleven or twelve years old, and it was not until the new emperor ascended the throne that her sister was named a concubine, and the two sisters were reunited. I remember the first time I met, my mother-in-law brought her in. When she knelt down to say goodbye, she felt for no reason that the person who was gorgeously dressed, majestic, and indifferent was not her sister. Later, when she retired from others, only two sisters were there, Concubine Shu gently called "Fu'er ......", and when she burst into tears, Liu felt that her sister was back.
Therefore, hearing her sister's nagging concern, Liu's heart felt like it was soaked in warm water, and she couldn't help but smile. It's just that what Enhou said was too shocking, and she promised not to say it, but she couldn't explain it to her sister.
Fortunately, Concubine Shu didn't mean to get to the bottom of it.
Liu thought that it was rare to enter the palace, but he came to trouble his sister, so he whispered embarrassedly: "I want to ask my sister to give me grandma." โ
Concubine Shu confirmed suspiciously, and asked Grandma about the usefulness of it, and after thinking about it again, she called someone in and passed on Grandma Liu and Grandma Tang. In a few moments, two old ladies came in.
A smile and a very kind look, with a wide heart and a fat body, and even the wrinkles on his face are not obvious. A lean, nasolabial folds are extraordinarily deep, and a harsh face, which looks very difficult to get along with.
Concubine Shu said: "This is Liu and Tang, Liu is good at recuperation, very good at taking care of people, when I was pregnant with Huanting and Caicai, she took care of her; Mama Tang is good at โกโก maids, half of the people in my palace are โกโก by her, I heard that the descendants of the Jia family are very disagreeable, and I am also very relieved to let her help you take care of the yard. Seeing that Liu wanted to stop talking, Concubine Shu smiled: "You don't have to worry, these two grandmothers have already โกโก the people who will take over, even if you don't mention it, I will let them out to care for the elderly in the past two years." โ
When Liu and Tang Mama heard this, they didn't understand anything, and they looked at each other, and both of them had a strong joy in their eyes. Pension in Zhuangzi, and go to Jia's house to retire, fools know how to choose. Although he still has to serve the Liu family, where is the secret of the Guogong Mansion comparable to the cannibalistic palace? Working as an errand in the minister's house, they are idle and decent, if it weren't for Liu's mouth, such a great good thing really wouldn't have fallen on their heads.
The two of them stepped forward to thank them with a sense of humor. Concubine Shu nodded with satisfaction, thinking about the dispatch of the palace people, and had a few words with the Liu family. When Liu came out, he saw the two grandmothers packing up their things and waiting outside.
Back at Lanfang Courtyard, Zhu Mei greeted her. "Grandma is back, Brother Hu is clamoring to see grandma." Zhu Mei said as she looked curiously at the two old grandmothers following behind the young grandmother.
Mama Tang frowned when she saw this.
Liu asked, "Where is my brother?" โ
Zhu Mei said with a smile: "Brother saw that grandma didn't come back for a long time, and went to the uncle's study after lunch." The brother told the slave and maid that grandma must inform him when she returns. Liu said that he could see him at dinner, so he didn't need to disturb his brother. Zhu Mei whispered.
"Cuiliu, ask someone to clean the wing room on the west side," Liu then instructed, "Bihe, call all the maids and mothers-in-law in the courtyard." Bihe Cuiliu answered, and hurried to work.
Liu entered the house and took a sip of tea made by Snow Lotus to moisten his throat. Riding in a carriage from the palace to Ningrong Street, I talked with the two grandmothers along the way, and I was inevitably a little thirsty.
"You all stand down, I have something to say to the two grandmothers." Putting down the teacup, Liu closed his eyes and said a little tiredly.
Zhu Mei and Xue Lian, who were standing beside Liu, silently bent their knees and retreated with the second-class maids who were waiting.
Zhu Mei stood under the porch and asked, "What's the matter with those two old grandmothers?" โ
Xue Lian shook her head, indicating that she didn't know, so she left with a second-class one named Yingsong.
Zhu Mei chirped: "What a frivolous little hoof, but he can make tea." โ
A man named Liuyun smiled and said, "Why should my sister take it to heart? Who doesn't know that Sister Xuelian is going to go to her brother sooner or later? โ
Zhu Mei glanced at her, sneered, and said, "Why did you ever want you to take care of the affairs between us?" After saying that, he stood there looking at the flowers, and ignored her.
Liuyun's face was sneering. Liuyun thought with annoyance, she saw that Zhu Mei and Xuelian seemed to be a little unmatched, how could she think that people were good and became a villain in vain.
There was silence on the porch. Zhu Mei had a lot of thoughts, and for a while she wondered if the two old grandmothers would affect her status; After a while, I thought about Xuelian again, and I didn't understand why she wanted to go to her brother'er, they were more than ten years old! She was so engrossed that she didn't realize that someone suddenly tapped her on the shoulder. Zhu Mei was shocked! Her heart was pounding, and she was shocked to see that it was Bihe.
Zhu Mei complained: "Okay, you are a Bihe, you can scare me!" โ
That Cuiliu interjected: "Sister Bihe can call you a few times, you shouldn't either!" โ
Bihe only smiled slightly, and asked gently, "What do you think, so distracted?" โ
Zhu Mei said, "I'm thinking about Sister Snow Lotus. โ
When Cuiliu heard this, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes. Bihe, Zhu Mei, she and Xue Lian are the four big girls around the young grandmother, Bihe is calm, Zhu Mei is shrewd, these two people are the most relied on by the young grandmother, she and Xue Lian are both upside down. The four of them were all promoted from the second class, and they are all the same according to reason, Zhu Mei and Bihe are closer, why is Snow Lotus also good with them!
Fortunately, when the uncle goes to live in the outer courtyard, Xuelian will also follow, and the new one will be called her sister by then! Cuiliu secretly thought that Snow Lotus was really unlucky, she was the most beautiful, and the uncle also took a fancy to it, but at this time she wanted to go to her brother.
Bihe was silent, only said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, and Sister Xuelian is also helpless." When Zhu Mei stopped being angry about this matter, she understood. He asked again: "Cuiliu, has the wing room been cleaned?" โ
Of course, it is not cleaning in the general sense, in addition to cleaning the dust, you also have to move some tables and chairs from the warehouse. Cuiliu is arranged according to the treatment of the grandmother's grandmother.
At this time, the other attendants in the courtyard also came. The main room of Lanfang Courtyard lives in the Liu family, the east wing room lives in Hu Ge'er, the west wing room lives in the four big maids, and the other maids and daughters in the courtyard live in the back. There is a hall in the main house, which is the place where the housekeepers and daughters-in-law of the Liu family talk back. However, there were not enough people to fit in, so everyone stayed in the open space of a small garden surrounded by the main house and the east and west wings.
Cuiliu nodded. Bihe also smiled and said that everyone had been informed. It didn't take long for Snow Lotus to come back, and I don't know what she was doing when she went back. Several people spoke in whispers, and from time to time they looked into the courtyard. There were dozens of people in the courtyard, but they were not noisy at all, and everyone stood with bated breath.
I don't know what Liu and the two grandmothers talked about, but they came out two quarters of an hour later. Zhu Mei Bihe hurriedly stepped forward to help Liu.
Liu waved his hand and asked them to stand aside. She looked around, and briefly said that Mama Tang would be responsible for supervising them in the future, and then let everyone disperse.
After the two grandmothers were settled, they heard the little maid inform: "Mrs. has passed the food there!" โ
The Liu family has always brought Zhu Mei and Snow Lotus to Rongxi Hall, and it is the same today, but the two grandmothers have not seen their wives yet, so they also brought them.
In Rongxi Hall, Mother Jia was thinking angrily, when she asked for peace in the morning, the Liu family said about entering the palace, she thought that she was just reporting the good news to Concubine Shu, thinking that deepening the connection with Concubine Shu would also be beneficial to the Jia family, so she didn't stop it. Who knows! When she came out, there were two more grandmothers! Liu's family, when I Jia's family, is it the Longtan Tiger's Den? Damn it! None of the people who have arranged it recently can get close to Jia Hu's body, and it is difficult to contact the nail that was arranged in the boss's yard before...... Thinking of this, Mother Jia suppressed the joy on her lips, Liu's idiot, the yard can't be managed well, it seems that it is right to take away the housekeeping in her hands.
Before eating, I was going to ask the Liu family, but who knew that as soon as Jia's mother spoke, the two old grandmothers came out to salute and greeted each other: "Say hello to the old lady!" โ
Since he entered the door of my Jia family, he is naturally a descendant of the Jia family. Jia Mu thought so, so she didn't scream.
Mama Liu and Mama Tang are not vegetarians, if they suffer such a threat, they will not have much majesty in Jiafu. Mama Liu spoke first: "Old lady, the lady concubine asked the slave to say hello to the old lady on behalf of the mother." Jia Mu was slightly moved, but still didn't scream.
Mama Tang responded and said: "When the lady lady saw the young grandmother, she was very worried about the health of the young grandmother, so she specially sent us to take care of the young grandmother, and asked the old lady to forgive us for the sin of uninvited." โ
Forgiveness? Jia's mother can't afford it. She didn't want to tear her face with her eldest daughter-in-law, so she lightly asked them to get up.
Feeling that she had suffered a loss, Jia Mu had a good idea in her heart.
