Chapter 12 Seven Inches of Snakes
Chapter 12 Seven Inches of Fighting Snakes
"Old lady, Qing'er still has a few words, I don't know if I should say it or not." Feng Zhaoqing suddenly stood up and walked to the front of the hall, Ying Ying bowed to everyone present, her demeanor was dignified, her posture was graceful, and she had the good bearing of everyone's ladies, which made people almost forget her aggressive appearance when she faced the eldest sister just now.
Compared with her sister Feng Zhaotian, Feng Zhaoqing is obviously a boudoir lady who meets the standards of elders.
Although the eldest lady has a lot of nobles, she also knows a thing or two about Feng Zhaoqing, the great-granddaughter of the third room. It's just that the sun and the phoenix are very close to the sisters in each room, and they are also very loved by the sisters. She is a frequent visitor to the big house, and the eldest lady has heard some things about Feng Zhaoqing from her juniors, and she is very satisfied with her demeanor.
Therefore, the eldest lady's attitude towards Feng Zhaoqing can be regarded as kind, and she nodded and said: "If the girl has something to say, just say it, I believe you are a measured person." ”
Feng Zhaoqing smiled slightly, and said, "Thank you for the old lady's false praise, Qing'er really doesn't dare to be." Regardless of the rest, today's events, Qing'er thinks that it is indeed the sixth sister who is acting biased. ”
Feng Zhaotian was anxious when she heard this, and she just wanted to open her mouth but was stopped by the Zheng family.
Zheng knew that this eldest daughter was very thoughtful, she had lived in the capital for several years, and she had always taken the noble third girl in the Feng Mansion in the capital as an example, and she behaved in every word and deed. In Huaiqian, there is no lady who can compare with Feng Zhaoqing's bearing.
Feng Zhaoyu just revealed her greed for ink and silver, at this time, the Zheng family was out of order, and all their hopes were pinned on this smart eldest daughter, hoping that she could suppress this matter, and she must stop the eldest lady and not let him check those old accounts.
I think that the aunt and grandmother of Fengfu also walked out from Huaiqian, and at that time, Fengfu did not have such a door as it is now, she still flew on the branches and became the dignified Duchess of the country today. Zheng deliberately pampered his two daughters, and the little hope in his heart swelled more and more as the two sisters grew up. Especially this eldest daughter, Zheng believes that she will have great achievements in the future.
I only heard Feng Zhaoqing continue: "The sixth sister is young, and she has been pampered since she was a child, and she has developed such a childish spirit, which often gives her mother a headache. Today, the elders are so troubled, they really should be disciplined well, and they can't be so willful. "She's a sister, and that's a lot to say.
Feng Zhaoqing seemed to see the eldest lady's intention to let them carry the black pot on their backs in order to protect the reputation of Feng Mansion and Feng Yunfei, although the pot should have been carried by them. At this time, the person who pushed Feng Zhaotian out of the top tank and in turn saved their room can be regarded as having a hurry. It's just that she pushed her sister to the front when she encountered something, and her character is really not bad.
As soon as Feng Zhaoqing said this, the atmosphere in the hall was not as tense as just now, and the eldest lady couldn't help but nod secretly.
Although he could punish Feng San and the Zheng family to save face in the mansion, wouldn't it be worrying if there was a better solution? It is undoubtedly best to still characterize it as a child's trouble, not to mention that the accounts in the front yard are really not something that can be checked casually. If it is found that someone has done something in it, is it better to punish it or not? If you talk about punishment, in order to give a few thousand taels of silver to move the old servants who have served for generations, the gain really outweighs the loss. If there is no punishment, how can you serve the public?!
It's better not to check.
As for the Zheng family's mistreatment of Feng Zhaoyu, it can be resolved privately behind closed doors.
Feng Zhaoqing said again: "As for the eldest sister, I think that because I am away from my parents all the year round and miss my father, I am so anxious to snatch the gift from my eldest uncle, which is really fateful and pitiful." ”
Snatch? That's a subtle thing to say. The corners of Xiao Yu's mouth were slightly raised, just looking at how this dignified and beautiful lady continued to cover up this turmoil.
Originally, my mother was going to let people send the gifts to the eldest sister's yard afterwards, but after registering and making the book, she would hand them over to the eldest sister along with the booklet, so that it would be safe. The big sister behaves eagerly, but it looks like ...... The sixth sister complained that the eldest sister didn't understand her mother's intentions, so there was a quarrel. In this way, it will be said, lest someone deliberately vague the facts, in fact, it is not a big deal, it is all ignorant subordinates who collide with your uncles and elders. didn't discipline her subordinates well, which is also the mother's unfavorable discipline, Qing'er didn't dare to distinguish it, and I apologized to my uncles and uncles here. After saying that, he went down again.
"It is also common for slaves to bully their masters. Miss Feng Wu really doesn't have to blame herself for this. A middle-aged woman sitting at the bottom of Hu Zhi County opened her mouth at this time, her face was kind, and she seemed to have a relationship with Feng Zhaoqing's words. When she turned to look at Feng Zhaoyu, the woman's face was not so friendly.
Feng Zhaoqing's words, seven points of truth and three points of falsehood, but the part of the false words is the most difficult to distinguish. Let her mix it up, it seems that Feng Zhaoyu is messing around, selfish and rude.
"As for the big sister who doesn't go out of the yard all year round, this is also a helpless thing. Because the eldest sister's aunt only cared about ...... Because she didn't take good care of her eldest sister, her eldest sister was weak since she was a child, and she had a few dangerous illnesses a few years ago, which frightened her mother. I invited many doctors, and they all said that the big sister's body needs to be recuperated. If the eldest sister really wants to go out, she can explain it to her mother. No matter how worried the mother is, as long as she makes good arrangements, it is just a little troublesome, and it is not impossible. ”
As soon as Feng Zhaoqing's voice fell, the middle-aged woman snorted coldly and said, "A boudoir girl, naturally she should not go out of the door, what does it mean to think about going out all day long?" also said that she couldn't see anyone, I don't know who Miss Feng wants to see? ”
The middle-aged woman seemed to be very satisfied with Feng Zhaoqing, and every time she echoed her words, she targeted Feng Zhaoyu.
Feng Zhaoqing's sneaky change of concept, and distorted the house arrest he revealed before into Feng Zhaoyu's mind floating in the room, which was really a very severe accusation for a lady in ancient times.
Xiao Yu glanced up at the eldest old lady. If this patriarch heard Feng Zhaoqing's words and still threw him back into the hands of the Zheng family, I am afraid that this time he would really worry about his life. The Zheng family will not care about Feng Zhaoyu's identity, this poor young boy has long been an abandoned son of the family, and he is still a witness to Feng Yunning's unsightly superior methods. No one would take his life seriously. The Fang clan who really loved him, but they didn't have the ability to protect him.
Feng Zhaoqing continued: "This time, it is really my mother's love for the big sister, but there is a lack of communication with the big sister. Now that the misunderstanding has been solved, the eldest sister will definitely not blame her mother anymore. Those minions who sow discord between masters and sons should also learn some lessons. ”
"What to learn some lessons, Qing Niang is still too kind." The middle-aged woman said disdainfully, "For those daughters who are kind enough to treat as donkey livers and lungs, it is true that they can't be beaten or scolded, can't even a few evil slaves have an attack?" It is because you and your mother are so soft that you have been bullied by these slaves. I pulled it out earlier and sold it, and I was already clean, so how could it cause today's troubles. ”
Feng Zhaoqing smiled slightly: "Thank you Mrs. Li for teaching, Qing'er is grateful." ”
"Okay, I have long seen that Qingniang's child is a good one, it is really another golden phoenix in our Huaiqian County." Mrs. Li looked at Zheng with a smile on her face, and she was full of praise for Feng Zhaoqing.
Xiao Yu saw that this Mrs. Li seemed to have a crush on Feng Zhaoqing and wanted to marry her daughter-in-law?
No matter what her calculations are, she shouldn't fall into the well for a lonely and helpless child like Feng Zhaoyu, so as to gain the favor of the Zheng family and Feng Zhaoqing. Now it seems that this Feng Zhaoqing not only wants to put him back into the Zheng family's palm and let them rub it round and flatten, but also deal with Bailing, and get rid of the last person around Feng Zhaoyu who treats him sincerely?
At a young age, his mind is very vicious.
Xiao Yu glanced up at the eldest old lady and saw that he was silent, as if he was thinking about something.
Feng Zhaoqing suddenly looked at Feng Zhaoqi who was standing behind the eldest old lady, smiled slightly, and said, "Little sister has spoken too much." I wonder what the big brother thinks about this? ”
Feng Zhaoqi's attitude towards Feng Zhaoqing was quite soft, and he nodded: "What the fifth sister said is very true. ”
Bai Ling looked left and right, anxious. Zheng's mother and daughter were aggressive, and even the brother who looked exactly like the girl was unwilling to speak for the girl, but instead looked at Feng Zhaoqing, Bai Ling's eyes were so anxious that his eyes were red, and tears were in his eyes, and they couldn't fall.
"The matter has come to this point, and it has been clearly distinguished." Seeing that no one spoke, Feng San hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Please also ask the eldest old lady to make a decision, we juniors will definitely obey it." ”
Feng San seemed to feel that Feng Zhaoqing had pulled the advantages back to them, and at this time he was relaxed.
Xiao Yu lowered his head and shook his head slightly. Do you really think it's foolproof?
Xiao Yu stepped forward and bowed and said, "It's useless to talk more, old lady, check the accounts." ”
Let's check the accounts.
Feng Zhaoqing, who had just had a lotus tongue, frowned slightly and glanced at Feng Zhaoyu.
She said so much, Feng Zhaoyu actually only replied with such a sentence.
Just this sentence made her speechless.
She was never willing to let people check Feng Zhaoyu's account, but she couldn't say this, and Zheng couldn't say it, otherwise she would be weak-hearted.
Zheng Shi listened to those three words in his ears, and his face distorted for a moment. This little slut just grabbed what she was most afraid of and brought it up again and again!
The eldest old lady frowned, and Xiao Yu just looked at him calmly.
Being stared at so directly by that clear gaze, the eldest lady was slightly stunned, a feudal patriarch who had been in charge of the Feng Mansion for decades couldn't hold on to this pair for a few more moments, and couldn't help but look away.
No matter how Feng Zhaoqing quibbles, no matter how people with intentions whitewash the peace, the facts are actually very clear. Feng Zhaoyu must have been treated harshly by the Zheng family in the past ten years, and there is nothing that everyone here can't guess.
But for their own benefit, they can spread out a shiny brocade cloth and hide all the filth under it, so that the truth will continue to see the light of day. And the shrewd people understand in their hearts, and on the other hand, they have their own icing on the cake, and everyone is still a dignified and decent family atmosphere.
All big families do this, this is for the benefit and face of the whole family, this is not a private matter, this is the way of the public.
But at this moment, the eldest old lady, who was the patriarch, didn't dare to face the frank eyes of that junior.
The eyes were too clean and too thorough. She seemed to see clearly that these adults could refer to the deer as horses for the sake of profit, but they reached out to him to ask for justice that he didn't want to give and couldn't afford.
He didn't dare to look at him like that.
Seeing that the eldest lady looked away, Xiao Yu was stunned and couldn't help but smile slightly.
I didn't expect this old lady to be in charge of a big feudal family for so many years, and he still had a decent heart. Because of the moral bottom line, I will feel guilty and dare not look at a little girl.
Although this old man hesitated and was unfair in dealing with Feng Zhaoyu's affairs, he really couldn't be rash when it came to evaluating objective facts from a dialectical point of view, as the helmsman of a family. Comparing his heart to his heart, Xiao Yu is still willing to admire him.
But it's good to have a moral bottom line, and there are some things that Old Man Feng can't tolerate no matter what.
Xiao Yu said: "Uncle Tai, I still have something to tell you, but this matter is serious, I want to tell Uncle Tai in private." ”
As he spoke, he moved towards the old lady.
The third old lady hurriedly said: "Sister Yu, don't be presumptuous. ”
The eldest lady waved her hand and said, "It's okay, let Yu girl come over." ”
The corners of her mouth twitched, and she still maintained a dignified posture and walked forward.
Can't these elders honestly call him "Zhaoyu"?!
Zheng looked at Feng Zhaoyu nervously, and Feng Zhaoqing couldn't let go of her frowning brows.
Her justification just now was clear and nuanced, and there were other ladies in the house, why didn't the eldest lady go down the slope and make a decision? For the sake of Fengfu's reputation, she didn't believe that the eldest lady would not know what to do for the best.
But what's going on now? He actually allowed Feng Zhaoyu to sue for personal reasons, in front of so many gentry officials?
"If you can't say anything openly, you have to tell the black in private. What the hell is there to see?! Feng Zhaotian saw that her sister had the upper hand, and she was proud in her heart, and couldn't help but say a stinging word.
Feng Zhaoqing hurriedly grabbed her, glared at her threateningly, and didn't allow her to speak again.
Feng Zhaoyu stopped and glanced back at them.
Zheng Shi was looked at by those clear eyes, and he felt a panic in his heart, and he was suddenly afraid that Feng Zhaoyu would be provoked by Feng Zhaotian, and he really didn't care about what he said.
