Jiang Shi heard the conversation between Xue Qing and Xue Shi on the side, and couldn't help but look at Xue Shi, at a young age, he analyzed things so clearly and thoroughly, and he was indeed very smart.

On the other hand, Xin'er, who is the same age as Xue Qing, is not as steady and calm as her, thinking of this, she looked at Xin'er again, this little girl herself has always spoiled her, so she has developed the arrogance and rudeness she is now, and she still wants to focus on her in everything.

This reunion dinner in Xuefu, some people are happy to eat, some people are angry, but it is still a very successful ending, everyone dare not touch Mrs. Xue's reverse scales at this time, Mrs. Xue is old in the end, after talking for a while after the meal, she was a little in good spirits, and waved her hand and said: "You guys are all scattered!" After speaking, Ah Tao helped him back to his room to rest.

Shen looked at Jiang Shi and said with a smile: "Second brother and sister, we haven't said anything considerate for a long time, why don't you go to my place today and talk for a while,"

Jiang Shi said lightly: "Sister-in-law Xie's kindness, but I am a little unwell and want to go back to rest,"

Although Shen was a little disappointed, he was still a little nervous and said, "You don't need to ask a doctor to come over to show you." ”

"No, just go back and lie down."

"The second brother and sister should have a good rest." Shen took Jiang's hand and said with concern.

When Jiang turned to go out, he called Xue Ling and Xue Xin and asked them to accompany her back, and after returning to the courtyard and entering the house, Jiang turned around and patted Xue Xin on the shoulder, and said angrily: "Do you know why I beat you." ”

Xue Xin looked up at the eldest sister quietly, and when she saw her, she also shook her head, and she didn't know why her mother was so angry, so she said carefully: "I don't know? ”

Jiang Shi sneered angrily and said, "You bastard who doesn't have a long brain, you forgot what you said to you last time." ”

Xue Xin had been pressing the fire while everyone was eating, but now she was counted down by her mother when she went back to the house, and she didn't feel good in her heart, and said loudly: "What mistake did I make to let you say this about me." ”

"You're still hard-mouthed, do you think I don't know that you want to trouble your cousin-in-law when you're eating?"

Xue Xin's head stiffened, and she said shortly out of breath: "But didn't I stand up and stir up trouble?" ”

"You also know that this is a provocation, and you are embarrassed to say it."

Xue Xin said: "What's wrong with me saying it, a peasant girl marrying into our Xue Mansion is exalting her, not to mention being careful to befriend us, but ignoring our love and answers, cold and indifferent, what qualifications does she have to treat me like this, isn't it that she can make money and be literate, but what about these, which of the literate girls with status in Beijing is not better than her, isn't it more compatible to marry her cousin?" ”

Jiang Shi slapped Xue Xin in the face, and said sharply: "Why can't you figure out the situation, do you think that you are in the capital now, in our own house, and let you speak so rampantly, this is the main house, you and I have to listen to the old lady's words and act, if what you said just now is heard by the people in the big house, do you know what the consequences will be?" ”

Xue Xin looked at her mother in disbelief, she had never touched a finger from her mother to her mother, and now because a peasant girl beat her three times and twice, how did she accept it, the tears in her eyes crackled and fell, but she just didn't wipe them, let them fall, and stared at her mother with breath.

Xue Ling was frightened to see her sister being beaten, relieved herself, and hurriedly pulled Xin'er down behind her: "Mother, my sister is just stunned for a while, don't be angry with her, I will persuade her in private after I go back." ”

Seeing that Xin'er was still unrepentant, Jiang Shi said angrily: "Are we talking less? But she listened to a few words, now we live under the eyes of Dafang, and we have to look at Dafang's face to act when we speak and do things, you don't know how to restrain your temperament, and provoke them again and again, do you want your father to come back from Beijing to clean you up. ”

Jiang Shi saw that her daughters didn't understand her hard work, Xin'er looked at her with a trace of resentment in her eyes, and felt a pain in her heart, and couldn't help venting the grievances in her heart during this time.

In addition, the old man was also cold to her because of her attitude and practice towards the concubine, so he arranged for her to come back and let the old lady help take care of the concubine's studies and female popularity.

Xue Ling whispered: "Mother, since we are uncomfortable staying here, why don't we go back to the capital!" Daddy had no one to take care of him in Beijing, so we just used this as an excuse to go back to our home in Beijing. ”

Jiang shook his head and smiled: "What you think of, can't my mother think of it?" Your father arranged this time to come back, do you think we can still go back? ”

What does this mean, Xue Ling was shocked, could it be that his father and mother were ......, and hesitated: "Mother, you and your father ......"

Jiang Shi sighed and said: "You don't need to know these things, now that you are in this mansion, you can live here safely, especially Xin'er!" Don't behave like in Kyori,"

looked at Xin'er, who was still sulking, and said: "You are the meat that fell from your mother's body, you said that your mother beat you, your face hurts, but have you ever thought about it, your mother's heart hurts even more," he said and picked up a handkerchief to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Xue Xin was motionless at first, and then was dragged out from behind by the eldest sister, walked in front of Jiang, and said in a low voice: "Mother, I was wrong, don't be angry with me,"

Jiang Shi hugged Xue Xin and cried: "Son, now that the situation forces us to listen to the arrangements of the big house, you can only grit your teeth and endure it even if you are angry." ”

Xue Ling listened on the side, and also shed tears, she cried: "Mother, I will definitely take good care of my sister in the future, and don't let her do things that worry you." ”

Xue Xin hugged her mother's waist and whimpered: "Mother, Xin'er won't make you angry in the future, I will listen to everything you say, I am not angry with my sister-in-law, when I see her, I will definitely stay away." ”

"Okay, Xin'er believes everything she says, remember not to be angry with the main house in the future, and don't trouble your cousin-in-law, she is now your grandmother's pistachio, you provoked her not only to anger your cousin, but also to your grandmother, you know?" Jiang Shi said earnestly.

Xue Xin nodded and said, "I know, my mother's words are all for my good." ”

"If only you understood." He said to Xue Ling again: "Your sister is impulsive, and I can't always be by her side to watch over her, but fortunately, she has always followed you, if she is still like today in the future, you must dissuade her on the side." ”

Xue Ling said solemnly: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely take a good look at my sister and stop letting her talk nonsense." ”

"Yes." Jiang Shi nodded, hugged Xue Xin, and said with a distressed face: "Did my mother hit hard just now, raise your head and let your mother take a good look." ”

Xue Xin slowly raised her head, and Jiang Shi saw the red palm prints on her white and tender face, and said anxiously: "Mother Wang...... Wang Ma. ”

Wang Ma was guarding outside, preventing others from hearing the conversation of the masters in the house, and hearing Mrs. calling her, she hurriedly lifted the curtain and went in, bowed her head and pretended not to know everything that happened in the house, waiting for Mrs. Wang's instructions, only to listen to Jiang's words: "Wang Ma, you hurry up and wet the handkerchief and bring it to me." ”

"Yes," said the princess, who turned around and went out with cold water and a handkerchief, and after she moistened the handkerchief in the cold water, she handed it to her wife.

Jiang Shi took a handkerchief and carefully covered Xue Xin's face, and said distressedly: "It's all bad for my mother, I shouldn't be so heavy, isn't Xin'er very painful." ”

Xue Xin shook her head and said: "It doesn't hurt, my mother beat me for my own good, it's my fault, it's right for my mother to beat me." ”

Hearing this, the tears in Jiang's eyes fell again, and Xue Ling hurriedly stepped forward and wiped the handkerchief in his hand for her mother: "Mother is crying, as soon as you shed tears, Xin'er and I will feel more sorry for you." ”

Jiang Shi picked up Ling'er's handkerchief to wipe her tears, and said with a smile: "Mother doesn't cry, Mother gave birth to two good girls, what else is worth being sad about." ”

Seeing that the second brother and sister turned around and took her niece back to the house, Shen sighed and said to Qing'er behind her, "Your second aunt is still angry with us?" ”

Tang Qing'er, her mother-in-law and Xue Qianxun probably knew the whole story, so she comforted: "Mother, some things don't depend on our persuasion, the key depends on whether the second aunt can think about it." ”

Shen nodded: "What you said is true." ”

Tang Qing'er stepped forward and took her mother-in-law's hand and said, "Mother, let's go back to the house too!" ”

Xue Qianxun listened to the conversation between her mother and daughter-in-law on the side, and did not interject, watching them go out, and also followed their footsteps to her mother's yard.

After entering the house, Shen asked Ginkgo to pour tea for the two, and she sat on the top and looked at the busy Ginkgo and said, "Ginkgo is not small, it's time to get married." ”

Ginkgo stood aside after adding tea to the young master and his wife, and when he heard his wife talk about himself, he raised his head suddenly, and felt that this move was a bit too much, so he lowered his head again.

Tang Qing'er smiled and said, "No, Ginkgo has also reached the age of marriage." ”

"Last time Xun'er told me that he wanted to give ginkgo to Sanshun, after thinking about it, I felt that the two were indeed very compatible, and in the spring of next year, let them get married!"

After listening to what Mrs. said, Ginkgo hurriedly knelt down to thank her, and she blushed like blood and whispered, "Mrs. Xie is complete...... Mrs. Xie was fulfilled. ”

Shen Shi smiled lightly: "This matter should have been done earlier, but I thought that in the future, if you marry someone and serve me with another maid, you will definitely not have the thoughtfulness of your service, so I didn't agree for a long time." ”

Ginkgo shed tears and said, "Madam, the slave and maid are reluctant to let you go." ”

Seeing this scene, Tang Qing'er said: "Mother, although Sanshun belongs to our yard, after Ginkgo marries him, you can still let Ginkgo come over to serve you,"

Shen smiled and said: "It's okay, Ginkgo has to marry sooner or later, and sooner or later there will be other maids to serve me instead of her," and said to Ginkgo: "Don't cry, if you marry into another yard, I may be distressed and reluctant, but marry into the yard of the young master and young lady, I can only be happy for you, but before you get married, you have to train another maid to serve me instead of you, can you?" ”

Ginkgo kowtowed to Shen again: "Mrs. Xie is complete, the slave and maid will do their best to train the maid who replaces the slave and maid." ”

"Alright, alright, get up." Shen said.
