Chapter 81: Purge
Second Mrs. Liu's expression was very melancholy.
“…… You've been with me for so many years......"
"That's what makes it more hateful." Liu Ruoxi couldn't help but say angrily, "My mother is so good to her, if she has a little conscience, she will not eat inside and out, and betray her mother to others." Such a white-eyed wolf, what else does my mother have to pity. Do you want to keep her by your side, waiting for her to collude with outsiders to frame us? ”
"I'm not trying to keep her. It's just that...... Hey, forget it, then it's up to you. Mrs. Liu thought about it for a while, and finally nodded.
"Call Xiuluan in." Liu Ruoxi instructed the little girl who was waiting in the house.
The little girl went out, and after a while, she brought the big girl embroidered luan in.
It was the turn of spring and summer, and the girls also changed into thin shirts and skirts. There are only two first-class girls around Mrs. Liu, namely Caifeng and Xiuluan. These two girls, usually the favor of the second wife of God, eat and wear differently from other girls. Xiuluan is full of silk at the moment, and there are three or four golden and jade hairpins on his head, which is the daughter of the ordinary rich and noble, but this is just the situation.
Xiuluan came in and bent her knees to Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoxi as usual.
"What did the wife call her servant? The pair of shoes that my wife asked for are almost done, so why don't I give them to my wife to try. Xiuluan said with a smile.
Mrs. Liu looked at Xiuluan and was silent for a long time.
Embroidered Luan long fit in the body, duck egg face, apricot eyes, very delicate, although usually not Caifeng careful, but better in the mind. Mrs. Liu loved her needlework the most.
"Xiuluan, you are seventeen this year." Mrs. Liu asked Xiuluan.
Xiuluan is a shrewd girl. I found that Mrs. Liu's expression was different, but. She didn't think otherwise. In the past two days, because the succession did not go well, Mrs. Liu's second wife was in a bad mood, and everyone knew it.
"Why did my wife talk about this all of a sudden?" Xiuluan smiled and said, such a tone of speech is only available to a very decent and caring girl, "Just seventeen, on the birthday of the first month, my wife also rewarded the maid with a golden hairpin and a set of new clothes. ”
Xiuluan said. Raised his hand and touched the red gold and jade hairpin on his head, which was given by Mrs. Liu's second wife, Xiuluan liked it very much and was very proud of it.
"Sister Xiuluan is so remembered." Liu Ruoxi said, "Then Sister Xiuluan must still remember, what did grandma give my sister as a birthday gift?" ”
"Back to the girl, it didn't take long, so I remembered. Big/Grandma gave the maid a pair of silver bracelets. I have returned to my wife and the girl. …… I didn't wear it, do you want to get it......" Xiuluan asked cautiously. The sleeves are slightly pulled up to reveal the two jasper bracelets on the wrists.
This jasper bracelet was also given to Xiuluan by Mrs. Liu, although the water head is slightly worse, but it is also a high-quality jade. Mrs. Liu is generous. He is never stingy with rewards for those around him.
"Other than that, Grandma didn't send you anything else?" Liu Ruoxi asked again.
"This ...... What kind of person is the servant, the big/grandma is not looking at the wife and the girl. If you give a pair of bracelets to your maidservant, what can you give to your maidservant again? Xiuluan was a little frightened at the moment. But his demeanor is quite calm, and he is more cautious and authentic. "Mrs. usually has something to do, and often sends the maid to the big/grandmother and various yards, and often has some rewards, and the maid can't remember clearly. What does the girl mean, and ask the girl to give the maid some pointers. ”
Saying this, Xiuluan carefully and secretly looked at the faces of Second Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoxi.
After all, she is a big girl who has been with Mrs. Liu for many years and is very favored, and at this time, she can be regarded as a talent if she can deal with it so calmly and smartly.
Very smart, and will never be easily deceived. It's a pity that the conscience is not good. Selling for glory has always been a taboo.
"A pair of bracelets, but they were given to you by the big / grandmother on the surface. In addition, Grandma also gave you a pair of golden hairpins. Big/Grandma is very good to you. Just two days ago, I sent twenty taels of silver to your family. It's only recent, the previous ones, and there's nothing that my wife and I don't know. Come to think of it, in the past two days, grandma will definitely have another generous gift for you. ”
Liu Ruoxi's tone was light, but in Xiuluan's ears, it was like a thunderbolt. Xiuluan's face turned pale for a moment, and the calm smile just now had disappeared without a trace.
Xiuluan pounced and knelt in front of Mrs. Liu.
"Madam, let the maid explain to Mrs. Grandma gave me something, but the maid didn't report everything to the wife and girl. The wife is the most forgiving person, and usually doesn't care about this, and the servant is negligent. The maid knew that she was wrong, and the big/grandma sent the things, and the maid went to return her for a while. I don't dare next time, I just ask my wife to take it lightly for the sake of the servant who has served over the years. Xiuluan begged Mrs. Liu.
"What a cunning!" Liu Ruoxi pointed to Xiuluan and said, "At this time, you are still avoiding the important and light, and you want to fool your wife, it is really bold, it seems that you have never put your wife in your eyes!" ”
"The servant was wronged, but the servant didn't dare. The maid was grown up under the watchful eye of the maid, and where the maid was wrong, the wife said to the maid, and the maid immediately changed it. Mrs. ...... "Xiuluan really knows Mrs. Liu very well, and every word is a confession, nephrite begged, so that Mrs. Liu Er looked at her for many years and fell lightly to her.
It's just that what Xiuluan did was unforgivable, and there was no way to take it lightly.
"Where are you wronged, why do we say anything here, what is the matter, we know it clearly in the blink of an eye?" Liu Ruoxi stared at Xiuluan's eyes and asked, "Could it be that the eyes and ears over there are all growing by my wife's side!" ”
"Xiuluan, you, you have wasted all these years of my heart for you!" Second Mrs. Liu said sadly.
When Xiuluan heard Liu Ruoxi talk about her real illness, her legs suddenly became weak and she could only sit on the ground.
In order to control everything, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu Da/Grandma arranged eyes and ears in each room. Master Liu San and Mrs. Liu San are in a slightly better situation because they are away all year round, but in that courtyard, there are still people who are bought by Mrs. Liu and Liu Da/Grandma, and report to them on the matter of peony. After that, Master Liu San and Mrs. Liu San cleaned up the people around them, and now the situation is much better.
As for the second master Liu and the second wife Liu's room, the situation is even more serious.
What Liu Da/Grandma bought was not an ordinary girl or daughter-in-law, but Xiuluan, one of the two most decent and trusted girls around Mrs. Liu.
Let's not mention the previous things for the time being, but recently, the reason why Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu/Grandma were able to grasp the dynamics of Mrs. Liu's side so clearly, and arrange the traps accordingly, was all the news that Xiuluan passed on to that side. Liu Ruoxi had already noticed Xiuluan's betrayal, and the reason why she didn't find out Xiuluan at the beginning was to plan it.
Some of the news is exactly what Liu Ruoxi wants to pass on to Mrs. Liu and Liu Da/Grandma.
And now, about the matter of succeeding Liu Yuhuai, everyone has already showcased in front of Mrs. Liu, and next, what Liu Ruoxi wants to do is not to confuse the line of sight, but to move seriously. At this time, the nail of Xiuluan can no longer be kept.
In their yard, there are other little girls and daughters-in-law who have also accepted the bribes of Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu/Grandma, but those people can't get close to Mrs. Liu like Xiuluan, and what they can know is limited. Therefore, Liu Ruoxi decided to start with Xiuluan and make an example. Let those people see what will happen if they betray their masters and turn their backs on them for glory. If such a decent embroidery is still like this, what will happen to other people.
Embroidery must not be spared.
Xiuluan also knew that what she had done was known to Mrs. Liu Er and Liu Ruoxi, and what would be the result waiting for her.
"Mrs., Mrs," Xiuluan climbed a few steps forward, hugged Mrs. Liu's big legs, and cried and begged, "It's the maid who is confused for a while, begging the wife to spare the servant." The servant has been with his wife since he was five or six years old, and the servant did not harm his wife's heart. It's just that everyone says that the big/grandpa and big/grandma will definitely pass over. The maid is confused, thinking about some things, and she doesn't have to hide it from the big/grandfather and big/grandma. The maid knew that it was wrong, and the wife wanted to beat or scold, but the maid had no complaints. The servant asks for nothing else, but only wants to serve until the wife is old, and the servant goes with the wife......"
At this time, Xiuluan's cleverness lies in not denying the mistakes made in vain, knowing that Mrs. Liu Er is soft-hearted and affectionate, so she impresses Mrs. Liu Er from this. For a girl like Xiuluan, beating and scolding is secondary, and the most feared thing is to be kicked out.
When he got out, not only did he lose face, but from now on, he would never be able to live this kind of life of fine clothes and fine food. For Xiuluan, who is used to living a good life, it is even more uncomfortable than beating her to death.
"Do you remember that you have been with your wife since you were a child, do you remember how good your wife was to you? At this time, you still have to hide from your wife, why don't you want to hurt your wife. You have been by your wife's side all these years, what should be done, what should not be done, what should be said and what should not be said, you can not be clear. It's just that he left his wife and picked a new master. You've already figured it out, and your wife will definitely lose ground in the future, so you have to pick up the high branch as soon as possible, isn't it! Liu Ruoxi's words debunked the deepest plan in Xiuluan's heart.
Xiuluan, this girl is hateful, so she is hateful here.
"Get out of here!" Mrs. Liu Er was also angry in her heart when she heard this, and the person who never lost her temper was also annoyed, and kicked Xiuluan away.
"Come on, take this girl out!" Liu Ruoxi commanded.
