Chapter 203: It's called Cake Cutting
When Mrs. Wen looked at Wen Jiuniang, who was covered like a beggar, and was sent back by the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, she was so shocked that she almost collapsed to the ground.
"What's going on?" Mrs. Wen helped Mother He and said.
"Mother!"
Wen Jiuniang just wanted to pounce on Mrs. Wen, but when she saw Mrs. Wen covering her nose with a handkerchief, she suddenly stopped.
"How did you get this look? Shouldn't you be in the Gu family's new house? How did you come back again? Mrs. Wen's mind was full of doubts.
Wen Jiuniang bit her lip and sobbed: "Mother, it's not the daughter who is carrying the sedan chair at all, but the slut of Wu Niang!" ”
Mrs. Wen was dizzy, but the bride looked at her coming out of Jiuniang's room, how could she become Wuniang?
"Are you saying that Wu Niang has already worshiped heaven and earth with Gu Liansheng? Got into the cave? Mrs. Wen said, holding her forehead.
"Although I didn't see Wu Niangren, but the wedding is over, what Gu Liansheng said in person, can there be a fake?" Wen Jiuniang was powerless.
Wen Jing walked over, saw Wen Jiuniang, and pretended to be surprised: "Jiuniang, how did you get like this?" ”
As soon as Wen Jiuniang saw Wen Jing and Qingshuang behind her, the anger in her heart burned, but she didn't know how to say it, after all, she asked Qingshuang to drug Wen Jing first, and the rouge was also what she wanted to wipe herself, and when she was replaced, she had no evidence, so she could only suffer a dumb loss.
"Hurry up and wash and change your clothes, I don't know and I think I'm called Hanako at home." Mrs. Wen said coldly.
Wen Jiuniang felt even more bitter in her heart and couldn't say it, so she cried and walked to the backyard.
Mrs. Wen made a color at Mother He. Mama He nodded and walked out.
"Qi Niang, you follow me to Wu Niang's house to have a look."
Mrs. Wen called Wen Jing and walked towards Wen Wuniang's room.
When she arrived at the Plum Garden, Lianxiu pushed open the door and let Mrs. Wen walk in, and found that it was empty, and there was still Wu Niang's figure.
Mrs. Wen turned to Wen Jing and said, "Who is lying on the bed?" ”
"Back to my mother, it's Wu Niang, and I just drugged her." Wen Jing bowed his head and said.
Medicine?
Mrs. Wen suddenly remembered that Wen Jing knew how to heal, and it was said that her medical skills were very superb, could it be that Wen Qiniang secretly healed that slut?
Thinking so, Mrs. Wen walked straight to Aunt Cui's house. lifted Aunt Cui's quilt.
Aunt Cui's whole body trembled in shock. was dragged up by Mrs. Wen.
"Aren't your wounds all healed? What are you doing lying down? Mrs. Wen was so cold that her eyes almost burst into flames.
Aunt Cui rolled down from the couch to the ground, and immediately wailed, Wen Jing gave her just ordinary ointment. So her wound still hurts severely. This time she only gasped for cold air.
Fox glanced at Aunt Cui suspiciously. Mrs. Wen sneered, stepped forward and ripped off Aunt Cui's dirty pants, looking at Aunt Cui's still festering buttocks. It's not like it's pretended.
Mrs. Wen kicked Aunt Cui's ass with her foot again, and Aunt Cui almost fainted in pain, her face was pale, and large pieces of sweat rolled down her head.
"Sister, this is wanting my sister's life, oh, oh." Aunt Cui snorted in pain.
"Don't dare, you will be the mother of the Marquise in the future, I don't dare to offend you." Mrs. Wen sneered.
Aunt Cui was stunned, she already felt hopeless, and Wen Jing also came to tell her not to worry about the family affairs of the Hou Mansion, but now Mrs. Wen said that she was the mother of the Marquise, didn't it mean that Wu Niang had already married, no wonder this old shrew was so angry.
Looking at Aunt Cui's startled appearance, she didn't seem to know about it, Mrs. Wen thought, she obviously watched the bride get on the sedan chair, now think about it, although the pace is a little unsteady, but walking is no problem at all, turned around and glanced at Wen Jing lightly, this can only show that someone has made trouble, and this person, close at hand, she really underestimated her in the past.
Looking at Mrs. Wen's eyes, Wen Jing smiled and said, "Mother, let's go and see Jiuniang." ”
Dingding looked at Wen Jing for a moment, as if she wanted to see something on Wen Jing's face, but Mrs. Wen was obviously a little disappointed, and then turned to leave.
After walking a few steps, Mrs. Wen suddenly turned around again, looked at Aunt Cui with a smile and said, "If you have the status of a young grandmother, you must also have the life of a young grandmother." ”
Aunt Cui's face turned pale, she naturally heard the meaning of Mrs. Wen's words, the Hou family has a big business, although Wen Wuniang is married, but it is difficult to be invincible in the battle in the back house.
Wen Jing watched Mrs. Wen leave, what she said was right, without financial resources and no brains, I am afraid it is really difficult to survive, the Hou Mansion is much more complicated than the Wen family.
Wen Jing helped Aunt Cui up from the ground.
"Qi Niang, didn't you say that Wu Niang's relationship with the Hou Mansion must be impossible?" Aunt Cui didn't care about the pain and asked.
Wen Jing sighed softly: "Speaking of this, I also blame me, I thought that Wu Niang got what she wanted, but I never thought that this might hurt her." ”
Aunt Cui held Wen Jing's somewhat cold hand: "She has always wanted to marry into the princely family, and this time it can be regarded as a wish, and it will depend on her own creation in the future, and she will choose it by herself." ”
Wen Jing nodded and said no more
Mrs. Wen walked into Wen Jiuniang's house, and Wen Jiuniang was lying on the bed, her shoulders constantly shaking.
"You still have the face to cry, what did you do behind my back?" Mrs. Wen said coldly.
Wen Jiuniang's face was shocked, and she choked up: "Mother, my daughter didn't want to hide it from you, but the county lord didn't let her daughter say it."
"Tell me, what the hell is going on?" Mrs. Wen said expressionlessly.
Wen Jiuniang sobbed and said the whole thing again, Mrs. Wen is such a shrewd person, and then understood that Jiuniang was calculated by Wen Jing, from the beginning, this was a trap, this game of chess Jiuniang only lost one, that is Qingshuang, and it was just this one, and she lost all the games.
Otherwise, it would be Wen Jing who was smashed and put in a box and carried to the Gu family.
"What did I tell you last time, you didn't tell me about such an important matter, do you think you can beat Qi Niang with your brain? She is much more powerful than her mother, but fortunately the county lord didn't play too much this time, otherwise the shame would be small, and maybe even her life would be lost. Mrs. Wen looked at Wen Jiuniang and said slightly angrily.
Wen Jiuniang's body trembled, thinking of the county lord's previous method of humiliating people, perhaps because she was afraid that Qi Niang was an official, if she was a concubine, it was not impossible to be tortured to death, and she couldn't help but be a little afraid.
"My daughter knows that she is wrong, and next time she will listen to her mother's arrangement no matter what she does."
Wen Jiuniang said in a low voice, but she was full of doubts in her heart, thinking about everything that had happened recently, since Wen Qiniang returned to the capital from Hanjiang County, everything had changed, and she was like two people before.
"Mother, do you think Qi Niang is very weird?" Wen Jiuniang said in a low voice.
"You mean," Mrs. Wen glanced at her.
Wen Jiuniang didn't make a sound, Mrs. Wen lowered her eyes and whispered, Could it be that she was possessed by a demon?
Wen Qiran returned to the mansion with a black face, and now it is rumored all over the city that the two daughters of the Wen family were sent to the Gu family, the more they talk about it, the more ugly it becomes, and the versions are also a hundred different.
Looking at the trembling Mrs. Wen, Wen Qiran finally couldn't help but say, "How did you become a housewife?" ”
"Master, it's all the concubine's fault, please punish the master." Mrs. Wen said with her head bowed.
"Master, you can't complain about my sister like this, it's all the county lord's fault, otherwise our Wen family will become the laughing stock of the whole city." Lu stepped forward.
"Hey." Wen Qiran sighed heavily, flicked his sleeves and entered the room, this county lord is really not good, but Jiu Niang is not injured, and it seems too stingy to go to the door to make trouble, and besides, Jiu Niang is self-inflicted, and she will harm others and herself.
As soon as Wen Qiran left, Wang Jue also came back, and seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he went back to his house.
"Jingsheng is full moon today." Qingshuang saw Wang Jue coming back, and hurriedly told him.
"It's already a full moon in the blink of an eye, it's a pity" Wang Jue looked at Jingsheng's round little face and said.
"What a pity?" Qingshuang asked.
"It's a pity that I can't make a full moon wine for Jingsheng." Wang Jue said.
Qingshuang nodded, Jingsheng is not a descendant of the Wen family, so it is naturally inappropriate to hold a banquet in the Wen family, and besides, the lord and wife have no mind to take care of others, they are already too busy to take care of themselves.
"Let's celebrate ourselves, it's a little simpler, but it's better than nothing."
Wen Jing suddenly came over with a "cake", which she made with her own hands, saying that it was a cake, but in fact it was just a large pastry in the shape of a cake, and there was no cream in this era.
Qingshuang looked at the large pastry in Wen Jing's hand, and there was a thin candle on it.
"Lady, what is this?"
"This is for birthdays." Wen Jing smiled.
Wang Jue looked at this large round pastry that he had never seen before, which was inlaid with peanuts, walnuts, sesame seeds, almonds, etc., and coated with a layer of honey, although it didn't look very exquisite, but it looked very attentive.
Seeing a smile on the corner of Wang Jue's mouth, Wen Jing thought that he disliked the cake he made was too ugly, and couldn't help but sneer, what is this, you dare to laugh, this is a cut cake, more expensive than gold!
"I didn't expect that the eldest lady of the Wen family would have such skills, not only would she be able to perform an autopsy, but also make food." Wang Jue said casually.
After speaking, it seemed that realizing that it was really unappetizing to put these two things together, Wang Jue hurriedly coughed twice and changed the topic: "What is this pastry called?" ”
"It's called cake cutting." Wen Jing also said casually.
Wang Jue was naturally convinced, and watched Wen Jing light the candle on the "cake cutting".
"Let's sing it together and wish you a happy birthday!" Wen Jing sang to Jingsheng.
Qingshuang also sang along, although I don't know what kind of song it is, it sounds like a children's rhyme.
Wang Jue looked at Wen Jing with a smile, Wen Jing's face was calm at this moment, his body was shrouded in pale yellow candlelight, and the whole person had an indescribable attraction, many years later, this scene was still clearly imprinted in Wang Jue's mind. (To be continued......)
