Song Xiaoxiao also inquired carefully, and when she had a number in her heart, she opened her mind, and when she came, she rewarded the door again, and advised, "I came here today, don't talk to people." The doorman nodded diligently, and today he got this good amount of silver, which has given him several months' monthly money. Song Xiaoxiao's eyes looked fixedly at the magnificent door of the Zhao Mansion, and a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of her mouth, so she got up and sat in a sedan chair and went back to her small courtyard.

Since Zhao Jinling went to the capital, Shen Qinglian started her leisurely days again, the male master in the house was not at home, and several aunts were also cowering in their own courtyards, on the surface, it seemed to be calm, this morning had breakfast, Shen Qinglian was gossiping with her mother in the house, Li Yunniang lived here for more than half a month, and she was a little worried about her home, and she wanted to go home in the past two days, Shen Qinglian was willing to let go of people, so she only persuaded in every possible way, "Mother, you can live here for a few more days, and then accompany Lianniang, you also know that Lianniang is reluctant to mother, Anyway, there is nothing to do at home, if you leave, Lian Niang will stay alone in this house, how pitiful, you are willing to do it! Shen Qinglian raised her little face and looked at Li Yunniang pitifully.

Li Yunniang's face was embarrassed, Hou Ye was not there, and her daughter was really lonely in the house, but she had lived in it for a long time, although everything in this house was good, but after all, it was not her own home, in the end, it was not as good as being at home, there were many rules in the house, and she was always worried about what she was not doing well, embarrassing Lianniang, and she was also strange and restrained in her heart, and she didn't say which neighbors she missed

Li Yunniang opened her mouth and was about to talk to Lianniang again, but she heard a noise and chaotic footsteps outside, Shen Qinglian glanced at Xi'er who was waiting in the house, Xi'er would go out, but the noise outside was getting louder and louder, Shen Qinglian and Li Yunniang couldn't help but glance at each other, their hearts were full of suspicion, they stood up, and were about to go out to have a look, when the curtain was lifted, Xi'er came back, Shen Qinglian hurriedly asked, "What's going on outside, it's so noisy." ”

Li Yunniang also looked at her with a questioning face, Xi'er was afraid that Aunt Lian would be unhappy when she heard this, and she didn't want to talk about it, but this matter was known to the whole house, but she was afraid that she couldn't hide it, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's a woman who came to the door of the house, saying that she brought it back from Suzhou a few days ago, saying that she was going to enter the house to meet a few aunts, and the head of the door didn't dare to make her own decisions, saying that she wanted to go back to Aunt Xiu, but she didn't expect her to make trouble at the gate of the house" Xi'er didn't dare to say anything, that is, the woman outside was pregnant, Rao is so, Xi'er is still worried about Aunt Lian, anyone who hears the news has to be angry, how much does the lord love on weekdays, that is, he came back from Suzhou Mansion, and he also kissed me and me with Aunt Lian, I can't wait to be tired of being together every day, but I don't want another woman to come out of my back, and say that it was brought back from Suzhou, isn't this a joke for some women in the house? Thinking of this, Xi'er panicked for her aunt, and couldn't help but secretly look at Shen Qinglian's face.

Only Shen Qinglian's eyes were lowered, her face was pale, and she couldn't see anything, but Li Yunniang's face was worried, and she said angrily, "Where did this fox come from, this Hou Ye is also, how long have you been accepting Lianniang, it's too disagreeable, in the past, I saw that he was so obedient to Lianniang, and said that he was a good one, how could I think that this is a lot of kung fu, and he actually provoked another one, speaking of Su Zhou, isn't it just a few days ago?" I even brought her back on purpose, so it's hard to admit her into the house."

Since hearing the news, Shen Qinglian has been silent, at this time seeing her mother so excited and angry, but in turn persuaded her mother and said, "Mother, these sons of their families are like this, three wives and four concubines are normal, if you want to be angry for this, won't you be angry in the future, these have long been in my expectation, you don't have to be angry, angry body, it makes Lianniang feel distressed, Lianniang doesn't care about this, besides, Lianniang is just a concubine, how can he manage these things, he is good to Lianniang, Lianniang will suffer, if it is not good." , Lian Niang also lived her own life, Hengzhi his wife has not yet married into the door, and whoever he accepts to enter the door is just a concubine, and he can't control Lianniang's head. ”

Li Yunniang listened to Lianniang's words in a daze, her heart ached, she had tears in her eyes, she took Lianniang over, hugged her and said distressedly, "Lianniang, I have wronged you, it's useless for my mother, my mother was at the beginning" "Mother, you and I don't want to think about it here, this matter has to wait for Hou Ye to come back." Li Yunniang's words were intercepted by Shen Qinglian, she made a look, and then turned her head to Xi'er and ordered, "Xi'er, you go out and see what happened to that woman, and if there is something, come back and forth." Xi'er promised to retreat.

After leaving Xi'er, Shen Qinglian leaned into her mother's ear and whispered, "Mother, Xi'er is a person from the Hou Mansion in the end, and there are some things that you can't say in front of her." Li Yunniang was shocked at this time, her face was ashamed, and she asked nervously, "Lianniang, what Niang said just now was heard by her, will she go to the Hou Ye and say, Niang is also confused and won't cause trouble for you, right?" Li Yunniang looked annoyed and blamed herself.

Shen Qinglian couldn't see her mother like this, so she hurriedly comforted her softly, "Mother, Xi'er, she won't go to sue, don't worry, Lian Niang just told her mother, in the end, we have more than one heart." Li Yunniang patted her chest and put her mind at ease, but Shen Qinglian stood up at this time, walked to the door and looked at it, and saw that only Qing'er was in the outhouse, so she instructed, "Look at it, if someone comes in and report it." Qing'er immediately stayed outside the door with interest.

Shen Qinglian walked into the house quickly, met Li Yunniang's puzzled eyes, made a gesture to make her wait, and turned it up in the wardrobe, turned to the bottom level, took out a small gold-painted box, and whispered to her mother, "Mother, now Lianniang will not hide it from you, there are many rights and wrongs in this mansion, a man like Hou Ye, there will be no fewer women around him, and a new person will replace the old one, I am afraid that it will not be interrupted, Lianniang also has to plan for herself, this box is a precious jewelry that her daughter does not wear much in daily life, There are also a few silver tickets given by Hou Ye, which add up to a few hundred taels, plus these pieces of jewelry, it is estimated that I can make up a thousand taels, Lian Niang wants my mother to help me keep it, and then ask if there is a suitable store to buy one, in the future, there is a case, at least there is something to be around. Shen Qinglian said as she opened the jewelry box, only to see that several pieces of jewelry inside were dazzling, especially a few gems and pearls, the gems and pearls on them were not only large but also very good in color, but they were only worth a lot of money.

Li Yunniang looked at Lianniang's actions, her heart was extremely uncomfortable, tears instantly welled up in her eyes, and she said with distress on her face, "My poor Lianniang, it is naturally a good thing to have money by your side, but the greatest blessing of a woman is to be able to meet a lover for a lifetime, Lianniang, you have been so long in this life, how can you live" Shen Qinglian looked at her mother's sad tears, and felt uncomfortable, but she had to secretly suppress her sadness, cheer up and comfort Li Yunniang, "Mother, don't worry, in fact, things haven't come to this point, It's just that the daughter plans for the worst by herself, everything is prepared, there is always no harm, you see that you gave birth to your daughter so beautifully, which man can be willing to snub his daughter" Shen Qinglian took out a handkerchief and gently wiped Li Yunniang's tears, and teased her mother in her mouth.

Not to mention the matter of Shen Qinglian's mother and daughter here, Song Xiaoxiao was still having fun at the gate of the mansion at this time, but said what was going on, it turned out that after Song Xiaoxiao went back to the mansion that day, she thought about it and made a plan, that is, when Zhao Ye returned to the capital, she thought about the law and went to the mansion first, she was a smart person, and she knew in her heart that Zhao Jinling was afraid that she didn't want to welcome her into the mansion, but she was not willing to be thrown out by him like this and ignored it.

When she arrived at the door of the house, she cried and cried, "She wants to enter the house to meet a few aunts, begging them to allow her to enter the house, and she wants to find Zhao Ye, Zhao Ye picked her up from Suzhou and said that he would take her into the house, but now he throws her out alone, leaving her a weak woman alone, being bullied, and still carrying a child in her belly" Crying is pear blossoms with rain, miserable, she is wearing a jinghai cloth skirt today, her posture is Qianqian, which is pitiful, and there are many people who do not know the truth in the lively crowd, and they all sympathize with her, Pointing at the door of the Zhao Mansion.

However, this Song Xiaoxiao also worked hard to enter the mansion, but she told this big lie, and I don't know how it ended. But thinking about it, she has already thought about countermeasures, and she is also a talent, her eyes are rolling and it is an idea, and there is really no shortage of scheming methods.

Such a big movement at the door of the house naturally had a maid to report to Aunt Xiu where to go, Aunt Xiu heard this, suddenly felt tricky, her always indifferent face, also had ups and downs, frowning and pacing back and forth in the house, the maid who reported the news ran sweating profusely, trembling and said, "Aunt Xiu, there are a lot of people around the gate of the house, if you don't deal with this matter, I'm afraid it will have a bad impact on the house."

Aunt Xiu also knows how to deal with this matter quickly, don't make it big, but the master is not in the house, and she doesn't know the master's plan, if it is not handled properly, I am afraid that the master will blame it, but this person has made trouble at the door of the house, she thought left and right or quickly took her most powerful Mama Yu and Mama Zhang and a few maids and women to the door of the house and walked briskly.

When she arrived at the door, she stopped, and only signaled to follow her closely with Mama Yu and Mama Zhang to go outside the door to negotiate with the woman, Mama Yu and Mama Zhang went out directly from the corner door, and the lively people outside were sharp-eyed, and when they saw Mama Yu and Mama Zhang coming out, they all automatically silenced, and suddenly only heard the mournful cry of the beautiful woman sitting on the ground, Mama Yu made a straight face, looked at the woman condescendingly, and asked sharply, "What grievances do you have against this woman, why are you crying and wailing at the door of the house, you know, if you can't say that you are ugly, We're going to report this to the authorities. ”

Song Xiaoxiao saw that someone finally came out of the house, and when she heard Mama's question, she didn't distinguish but got up, bowed to her is Yingying, looked up at her snow-white face, and begged pitifully, "This mother, please go in and say that Xiaoxiao begs your grandmother, let her be merciful, and let the slave family enter the house!" The slave family is now pregnant with the child of the Hou Ye, even if the house does not care about the slave family, it should also take care of the child in the belly of the slave family, and the slave family is really helpless, so they can ask for the door" The people around the crowd were full of sympathetic tears, and they pleaded for her, "Yes, she is a woman and a woman is alone and pregnant with a child, and it is also pitiful, looking at the house is also a high-ranking family, and there is no shortage of food and clothing for her as a woman, how can she turn people away" The crowd of onlookers said gossipingly, most of them sympathized with her.

Mama Yu and Mama Zhang glanced at each other, knowing that this was a difficult character, but they were afraid that they could not be dismissed in a few words, so they immediately changed their tone, and Mama Zhang stepped forward to help her up. Softly coaxed and persuaded, "It is unreasonable for you to speak as a woman, if you are really the woman of our lord, how can there be a reason not to accept it in our house, but our lord has not returned, and we don't know your details, and we can't come to a woman who says it is our lord's woman, let's accept her, the house is our lord's final say, we just let you go back for the time being, and wait for our lord to return to the house, if you are really pregnant with our lord's child, I believe that our lord will definitely take you into the house, you wait patiently at home for a few days." ”

Song Xiao said carefully, the women in the mansion are really not simple, you see a slave maid talking without leakage, but she Song Xiaoxiao can be coaxed with a few good words, she pale and cried, "It's not that the slave family is not embarrassed by the master's absence, it is really a woman from the slave family who lives alone outside, and she is afraid and panicked, and there are outsiders who bully me a single and weak woman, who is embarrassed and bullied in every way, and has to come to ask for help, the slave family is really helpless, if you can't enter the house, Just let the slave family stay at the gate of this mansion" Song Xiaoxin was pitiful, coupled with the pitiful posture of the weak willow Fufeng, and won the pity of everyone around him.

Aunt Xiu heard it well in the door, knowing that the woman had made up her mind to enter the house, at this time, there was no other way but to take her into the house first, she whispered to a mother-in-law, the mother-in-law went out of the door quickly, walked to Mama Yu and whispered a few words to her, Mama Yu glanced at Mama Zhang, and the two tacitly stepped forward to help Song Xiaoxiao, and said, "The aunt in our house is kind, saying that although I don't know if you are the woman of our house, But after all, I can't bear to look at you, a woman with a child, tossing around like this, saying let's help you live in the mansion first, and wait for the master in our mansion to come back. ”

Saying that, the two of them helped Song Xiaoxiao into the house, and the people around them scattered when they saw that it was not good to say anything, and Aunt Xiu didn't bother to see her, so she only ordered people to take her to be placed in the Laurel Courtyard, so she went back to her yard, sat down and rubbed her forehead with a headache, and said upset, this woman is not a fuel-efficient lamp at first glance, but I am afraid that this house will be lively again.
