Chapter 116: Duty

The uncle and nephew both forgot the time when they spoke, and the entourage next to them reminded the two that it was time to eat, and the two came out of the study.

When eating, Ma Chengteng asked the maid to pick Yueyao's favorite dishes. Although Ma Chengteng regretted that Yueyao was not a man, he was still excited at this time.

Yueyao looked at her uncle who loved her so much, thought about it, and decided to hand over the things to her uncle at the moment, so she told Ma Chengteng what she meant.

Ma Chengteng naturally did not paint: "Okay." Put it in my place. I'll put it in the right place. "If you believe in Yueyao's words seventy percent at the beginning, then after Ma Peng passed the exam, he will believe it twelve points. The Mo family is really plotting for Yueyao's money, and for the sake of money, the woman can do anything, so she will have to think about it in the future.

Yue Yao also begged Ma Chengteng for something: "Uncle, I will go to Zhaohua Temple in a few days, and the mansion will definitely keep people." Uncle, Mother Deng is loyal to her mother, and I want to ask my uncle to help me remove Mother Deng's deed. Yueyao hoped that Ma Chengteng would do it for her, and it would be inconvenient for her to do it.

Ma Chengteng said strangely: "What's wrong?" What are you going to do with her deed? "Mother Deng will definitely rely on Yueyao to support her in the future if she has no children and no daughters, and it is impossible to betray Yueyao.

Yue Yao said: "Let go of the deed that Mother Deng is a good citizen, and others will not dare to kill her arbitrarily." "If you don't want to deal with a slave, even if you don't have a deed, you can find a reason to deal with it, but if you want to deal with a good citizen, it will be a lot of trouble.

Ma Chengteng said distressedly: "Wait for your uncle to pick you up next year to live." Seeing his niece's exhausted appearance, he was really distressed, and hoped that Yueyao would be taken over after a while, so that Yueyao could live a peaceful life in the Ma family for two days.

Yue Yao smiled and said, "Okay." "It's naturally good to be able to live in Mafu, and if there is anything to do in the shop in Zhuangzi in the future, you can ask your cousin-in-law for advice, and you can follow your cousin-in-law as a housekeeper.

Yueyao accompanied Ma Chengteng for lunch, and Ma Chengteng went back to Lidu on an errand, the ceremony was Qingshui Yamen, and there was nothing to do in the past. Generally, at the end of the year, there are many complicated things for the princes, emperors, grandsons, relatives and nobles to marry, and now they are very idle, which is also the reason why Ma Chengteng can come back at noon.

Ma Chengteng left after talking to Yueyao, Yueyao accompanied Ruolan to have a good conversation, seeing that it was almost time to go back, Yueyao stood up: "I really learned a lot from chatting with my cousin, these things are not in books, thank you, cousin." When Yue Yao said this, she was very sincere.

Zhuang Ruolan smiled and nodded: "You don't blame me for nagging." Zhuang Ruolan was chatting about some things intentionally or unintentionally, these things implied a lot of truths about how to behave in the world, Zhuang Ruolan vaguely pointed out that Yueyao's two things were not handled well enough, not tactful enough, and he paid such a big price The other party only hurt a little bit of the skin, and it was a loss. Too rigid and easy to break, sometimes you have to know that there is a weak show around the corner, and showing weakness will have unexpected benefits.

Yueyao knew that Zhuang Ruolan was doing it for her own good, and said gratefully: "No, there are still many things to ask my cousin-in-law for advice in the future, I'm afraid that my cousin-in-law will be annoying to me at that time." ”

Ruolan's attitude towards Yueyao is very comfortable, and she doesn't need Yueyao's reciprocation when she says this. just mentioned Yue Yao, Yue Yao can be grateful to her, and she is still very comfortable.

After Yueyao left, Ruolan sighed slightly: "Children who don't have a father and no mother have to be more sensible than others." "She has a father and no mother, no matter how hard her life is, it is better than Yueyao, Yueyao has no father and no mother, and she has such uncles and aunts, and her life is really difficult.

When Yue Yao returned to Lianfu, she went to the main room and said to Mo's: "Auntie, my cousin-in-law has promised me to go to the Guogong Mansion to ask, and there will be news tomorrow." ”

Mo Shi glanced at Yueyao: "Will the people from the Guogong Mansion definitely agree?" In the face of such a Yueyao, she couldn't pretend to be loving, so she didn't have to find a twist for herself.

Yueyao nodded: "My cousin-in-law said nine times out of ten. ”

Mo Shi thought for a while and said, "If you want to go, let your second sister accompany you to go." She said this because she knew that Yueyao rejected Yueying, so she was reluctant to let her daughter suffer.

Yue Yao was a little surprised, could it be that things had fallen back to the same place, and Mo still wanted her to be friends with Yue Bing? After the last confrontation, Yue Yao had confirmed that Yue Bing had been playing stupid before, and she was not stupid when she put such a person by her side: "The temple is bitter, I don't know if the second sister can endure this kind of suffering." "There is no need to say to death, Yue Bing will not go anyway, and Mo will not be willing to let Yue Bing suffer.

Mo didn't talk about this topic anymore: "When will the Guogong Mansion reply?" If so, when are you going to leave? ”

Yueyao thought for a while and said, "If nothing goes wrong, there will be news in the afternoon, and I want to go the day after tomorrow at the latest." "Leave this early, the province will make her tremble when she sees Moh.

Mohs jaw head

Yue Yao left the main courtyard and saw Yue Ying at the corner, Yue Yao was relieved, thinking that she should not mention it again and let her take her to Zhaohua Temple.

This time, Yueying did not beg Yueyao to take her to the temple, but wanted to borrow a few scriptures from Yueyao: "Sister, my mother said that there are more scriptures on your side, and I want to copy her favorite "Diamond Sutra" and "Filial Piety Sutra" for my grandmother. ”

Yue Yao didn't believe that there were no two scriptures on the Mo family's side, and just wanted to refuse, she couldn't help but recall Zhuang Ruolan's words in her mind, so she changed her words: "If the eldest sister wants, follow me to Lanxi Courtyard to get it!" Zhuang Ruolan said that sisters also need to be good friends, even if they don't have the same temperament, don't be evil, a person who is alone and helpless is the most terrible, Yueyao didn't rely on Yueying to do anything for her, she just wanted to change her strategy.

The two were relatively silent.

Yueyao didn't want to say it, because she had nothing to say to Yueying; Yueying wanted to talk but couldn't find a topic, so she went to Lanxi Courtyard in silence.

Yue Yao found the two scriptures that Yue Yao wanted from the small Buddha hall, and Yue Ying saw that they were not Yue Yao's manuscripts: "Third sister, why did you give me the original?" Yueying thought that Yueyao would copy the scriptures for her, but she didn't expect to give her the original.

Yue Yao no longer needs the original, to be precise, Yue Yao has long since lost the original, and she has memorized hundreds of scriptures in her mind.

Yueying thought for a while and said, "Third sister, I heard that it's colder on the mountain than here, so you bring more clothes." If she could, she really wanted to go to Zhaohua Temple to pray for her grandmother.

Yueyao didn't know that Yueying would care about her, which was very unexpected. After thinking about it again, cough, it was all caused by Aunt Chen, and after leaving Aunt Chen, Yueying understood that she would return to normal.

Yue Yao didn't know at this time that Yue Ying wanted Aunt Chen to come back, if so, she would definitely not talk to Yue Ying more: "Big sister, there is something I don't know if I should tell you." There was a deliberate pause.

Yueying didn't expect Yueyao to have something to say to her: "You say." ”

Yueyao decided to tell her about helping Yueying before, and if she did a good deed, she should leave her name, and it was a fool not to leave her name: "Eldest sister, I didn't think it was right for the Chen family to kiss me last time, so I asked my grandmother to check the details of the Chen family, especially the details of the second son of the Chen family." "Yue Yao doesn't expect Yue Ying to accept her love, but it's not bad to be able to black and black Mo's.

Yueying's face changed again and again: "Did you mention the matter of the Chen family to your grandmother?" She thought that the old lady saw the clue so she sent someone to investigate, but she didn't expect that it was Yueyao who saw the clue, so if there was no reminder from Yueyao, then she ......

Yueying was a little curious at this time, until now she didn't know what was wrong with this Chen Gongzi, and because of this, Yueying's loss could not be dissipated.

Yue Yao nodded: "It was I who reminded my grandmother, eldest sister, the second son of the Chen family is a good learner, Mr. said that he will definitely be able to pass the examination and raise people in the next department, as long as he works hard, there is a chance that he can be admitted to the Jinshi, eldest sister, don't think I am talking badly, if the second son of the Chen family really has such a talent, why not wait for the second son of the Chen family to be promoted or even won the Jinshi before saying kiss, why bother to say kiss at such a young age?" ”

Yueying is also a member of the Lian family, and naturally knows that the sons and daughters of the Lian family will wait until they get fame before talking about their relatives, because the higher the fame, the better the pro, just like Tingli and Tingyi have not been able to settle down until now, this is the reason, if you win the Jinshi, the better the family affairs mentioned before the ranking Of course, a situation like Ma Peng is purely a shit luck.

Yueyao saw that Yueying listened to it, so she took this and said: "I know that I told my grandmother that this matter is not in accordance with the rules, but at that time I really felt that this matter was very strange, eldest sister, there is a demon when things go wrong, this matter is related to your life, I can't have any questions and not raise them, grandmother went to check, the second son of the Chen family really has a big problem!" ”

Yue Ying took a deep breath: "What's wrong with the second son of the Chen family?" ”

Yue Yao was a little strange, why didn't her grandmother say about this: "Second son Chen has a dark disease, and he can't see it from the outside, but the doctor said that he won't live to be eighteen years old." "In the previous life, he died during the filial piety period, and Yueyao deliberately said that he was eighteen years old for fear of error.

Yueying was frightened: "Can't live to be eighteen years old? ”

Yue Yao nodded: "The Chen family can cheat on marriage, it can be seen that their moral character is poor, if the second son of the Chen family dies before they get married, the Chen family is likely to force the woman who is married to him to marry and live a widow for a lifetime." "In fact, to put it simply, it is a widow, which is a lifetime of pit girls.

Yueying was so frightened that her whole face turned white: "How can you be so vicious......"

Yueyao took heavy medicine: "Grandmother has been sick and has no energy to think about this, which can be forgiven; But can't even I see that something is wrong? Eldest sister, if you want to say that the eldest aunt can't see that there is a cat in it, I don't believe it anyway, but she knows that it is inappropriate, and she still tries her best to promote this marriage, eldest sister, the eldest aunt's attitude is already very clear, if the Chen family really asks for this, I believe that the eldest aunt will not refuse. ”

Yueying's teeth chattered at this time, and she was frightened: "No, Dad won't agree?" "Yueying didn't dare to think about the rest of it.

Yue Yao chuckled in her heart, no, she didn't like this in her previous life, and Yue Yao didn't say more, but just said the follow-up to this matter: "I heard that Chen Ergongzi has already set a family, and he is the third girl of an adult in Hanlin Academy, and that girl is also a concubine, and the third girl's mother is gone, eldest sister, I am not a fool, and the eldest sister will know in a few years that what I said is true or false." ”

Yueying already believed in Yueyao's words, this Chen family would really let the girl who was married marry the widow, the reason is very simple, because the Chen family chooses concubines, not concubines, and it is impossible for the family to take care of a concubine for the sake of fame, so even the fire pit will be pushed forward.

What Yue Yao said next was the point: "Eldest sister, I was forced to go to the mountains to eat fast, eldest sister, I took off the rumor that was not made by my aunt, because it was the eldest aunt who released the rumor, and your aunt just carried the black pot for her." Speaking of this, Yue Yao thought about her own experience, and her tears also fell: "If my father and mother are still here, why should I fall into the situation of being bullied and hiding in the mountains, not to mention choking with my aunt, eldest sister, I can't help it, but if I don't resist, Mo will definitely swallow all the money in my hand." ”

Yueying watched Yueyao burst into tears, which was completely different from the three girls she saw in her mother's room, the three girls at that time were domineering, but now she looks very pitiful, even more pitiful than her.

Yueying didn't know what to say to comfort, and looked at the quiet Lanxi Courtyard and hesitated before saying, "Third sister, this place is too remote and deserted. Third sister, I heard that my mother is going to let us all move out, each with their own yard, and the third sister will also move out at that time, and everyone will live closer, so that we can talk often. ”

Yueyao wanted to touch her forehead, but she hadn't noticed that this eldest sister's jumping thinking was too powerful: "No need, this is the yard where my father lived before his death, and I won't move." "Except for waiting until one day when she can leave Lianfu, she will never move out in Lianfu.

Yueying thought that there was a small kitchen in Lanxi Courtyard and this beautiful environment, and it was reasonable for Yueyao to be reluctant: "Third sister, then I'll go back." ”

Yue Yao nodded, paused and said, "Eldest sister, I hope I don't tell anyone what I told you today, including Aunt Chen and your personal maid, you and I can just know about this matter." "It's just a matter of trying to provoke right and wrong, Aunt Chen is not a safe master, the two maids Yueyao feel unreliable, who knows if they have been bought by the Mo family.

Yue Ying nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, I won't say anything about this matter." ”

Yueyao looked at Yueying's departing back, shook her head, originally wanted to get closer to refuse, but now seeing that this eldest sister just wants to take advantage of her, but has never thought of helping someone like her, it is better to maintain face.

Looking at Yueyao's red eyes, he decided that Yueying had deceived his own girl, and secretly glared at Yueying.

Hao's mother frowned when she saw it, but naturally she couldn't say anything in front of outsiders.

Cai Lan's heart was full of curiosity, the arrogant and domineering three girls were actually said to cry by their own girl, what more exciting news could there be?

Cai Qing looked at her girl's embarrassed face and felt that something was wrong, and the two should have said something confidant, which resonated.

As soon as she got out of Lanxi Courtyard, Cai Lan hurriedly asked, "Girl, what did you say just now that the third girl cried." ”

Yueying shook her head: "It's nothing." Hearing Cai Lan still asking, I was a little annoyed: "It's nothing, where are so many words." ”

Cai Lan was stunned, the girl has always been good-natured, when did she become so strict, but because Yueying was angry, she didn't dare to say anything.

Hua Bud gave Yue Yao a clean face and couldn't help asking: "Girl, why do you have to put up with the big girl so much, she made the girl cry, but you can't let her bully like this." ”

Yueyao smiled and asked Hao's mother on the side, "Mom, what do you say?" "I believe that Hao's mother can see more clearly than the buds.

Hao's mother was surprised that Yueyao would ask her, but it is naturally a good thing that the girl can change her style of acting either cold to the end or hard to the end, and women must be both rigid and soft: "The eldest girl doesn't know the hardships on the mountain, she may not be sincere in going to the mountain when she says this, the old lady has taken her by her side for so long before, if she doesn't express her position at this time, it will make people think that she is unrighteous, so she has begged the girl three or four times." Hao's mother's guess was naturally that she decided that Yueying had asked to go to the mountain again.

Hua Bud also felt that the eldest girl was instigated, and Hua Bud was dissatisfied: "The mountain is bitter, what good can it be to go to the mountain, she has been doing it three or four times, it seems that our girl does not care about sisterhood, everything is good for her, it is too hateful." ”

Yueyao's eyelids jumped.

Hao's mother's eyelids moved, no wonder the girl can be so valued, this girl is really not to be underestimated, behind the scenes, it is not Aunt Chen or Mrs. who instigated the big girl, and according to what she sees, nine out of ten are Mrs., the purpose is to spy on the girl or take the opportunity to make friends with the girl from the girl, but unfortunately the eldest lady has played this abacus, the girl is even wary of her, how can she trust the big girl.

Yueyao was about to practice her plum blossom font again.

Hao's mother hesitated for a moment and said, "Girl, I have something I want to say to the girl alone." She knew that Hua Bud was the girl's right-hand man, and she was very trusted and respected by the girl; But she really thinks that the current behavior of the flower bud is dangerous.

Yueyao was silent when she heard Hao's mother say that Hua Bud's behavior, this life is different from the previous life, and Hua Bud's fate is not the same, but her temperament has changed a little, Hua Bud seems to be a little unable to restrain herself, this is very dangerous, of course, it will not bring her danger, but it is very dangerous for Hua Bud herself, once the maid crosses the bottom line, what awaits her is death, even her personal maid can't protect it.

Hao's mother was a little apprehensive, although she was good for the girl, but she was not sure that the girl would accept it.

Yueyao called Hua Bud in, stared at Hua Bud and said, "Mother Hao said, you just glared at the big girl in front of the maid in the yard?" Is there such a thing? "In fact, not many people have seen it, at least not the people around Yueying have seen it.

Hua Bud instinctively wanted to deny it, but she couldn't say anything to refute Shang Yueyao's cold look, and Hua Bud knelt on the ground at the moment: "It's the slave's fault." "As a slave, you dare to defy your master, and if you are caught, you will only be beaten to death.

Yueyao didn't say anything: "Mother Hao, teach her what it means to be responsible." After speaking, he went into the study to practice calligraphy.

Hua Bud's face turned pale when she heard this, she always thought that she was different in the girl's mind, otherwise she would not have sent Duqiu away, and the girl didn't trust Qiaolan and Hao's mother very much, she trusted her the most, she thought she was different, but now she let her know that she was wrong.

Hao's mother didn't scold Hua Bud, it was not stupid to be able to be by the girl's side for so long and win the girl's trust, but it was just a mystery for a while, and punishing Hua Bud in front of the yard maid would only make Hua Bud lose her prestige, and she would not be able to control the maid below in the future.

Hao's mother used Huairou's strategy, Hao's mother talked to the flower bud for a long time, the point is that the maid is the maid, and it is the duty to be loyal to her duties, once she crosses the line, it will not only be dangerous for herself, but also bring a major threat to the master.

Kneeling in front of Yueyao: "Girl, I was wrong." “

Yue Yao didn't say much: "Knowing mistakes can improve a lot." ”
