131: Robbery

Chen's mother has been a little proud lately.

She originally thought that she would be punished by the old lady if she was driven back from the Xia family's house by Xia Ruan.

But he never thought of a blessing in disguise, but became the personal wife of the old lady.

This is something that Chen's mother never dreamed of before.

Today, she listened to the old lady's instructions to come to Miss Xia's family, but she didn't want to meet Mother Liu......

When she looked at Mother Liu, who was standing on the side, she didn't forget to sneer: "Hey, isn't this Mother Liu?" It's been a long time since I've seen you, Mother Liu. Speaking of which, I've been busy lately, but I look at you, and I'm definitely not busy. ”

Mother Liu didn't speak, but continued to tell the little maid to show Mother Chen the way to the Begonia Garden where the young lady lived.

Mother Chen naturally didn't expect Mother Liu to ignore her, and she was a little unhappy in her heart.

"The Xia family's house is so small, there must not be many things, Mother Liu must be idle and have nothing to do, right? Remember to come to the Chengguo Mansion another day to talk to me. Chen's mother couldn't help but say a few more words, and then showed a suddenly realized expression, "Hey, look at my memory, what have I said." I have forgotten that now that I am serving by the old lady's side, where is there such a blessing as Mother Liu to be idle, I am working hard. ”

After Chen's mother finished speaking, the whole person was triumphant.

Although the Xia family's house is in the Dayang Hutong in the north city of Kyoto, no matter how good it is, it is just a place where merchants live, and the house occupies a small area.

Compared with Chengguo Gong, Xia Mansion is simply a heaven and an underground.

At this time, what Chen's mother was thinking in her heart, Liu's mother naturally knew. But she is living a good life these days, so she doesn't take Chen's mother's words to heart.

No matter how good it is in the Chengguo Mansion, the monthly silver is not as much as the Xia Mansion. Miss Xia Jiasan is generous, often rewarding her subordinates, and she is kind. Compared with being by the old lady's side in the past, Mother Liu still likes today's life.

Mother Liu didn't answer, and Mother Chen naturally looked bored, and lost a sentence: "Mother Liu, you are a person who lives to be a low-level thing for a lifetime." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Mother Liu retorted with a smile: "If you want to talk about wealth." Then there will be a life to enjoy. After all, people are dead, and what is the use of holding so much silver? Mother Chen, don't you want to see Miss? I don't have time to talk to you. I am the housekeeper mother of the Xia family. Ay. I'm working hard. ”

After Mother Liu finished speaking, she left slowly, leaving Mother Chen and the little maid who led the way to look at each other.

Chen's mother felt a little uncomfortable. On the way to Begonia Garden, she couldn't help but reprimand the little maid who led the way, and the little maid almost cried.

Seeing the little girl's aggrieved appearance, Chen's mother's heart was somewhat more relaxed.

"Miss, Mother Chen is here." Ai Ye preached outside.

Du Ruo saw Xia Ruan nodding before he instructed Ai Ye: "Let Mother Chen come in." ”

After Chen's mother came in, she was somewhat stunned.

A few days ago, the Begonia Garden was extremely depressed, but now it looks like this......

She personally listened to the old lady's instructions to arrange the things in the yard and the house, but now the yard outside the house is full of precious camellias, and she has also seen some of them around the old lady.

Chen's mother never thought that the champion red in the yard was just placed randomly with other camellias, and she was not like the old lady, hiding in the house like a baby all day long.

What surprised Chen's mother the most was that the things in the house looked better than the things in the old lady's house.

Isn't the Xia family a small businessman?

Xia Ruan saw that Chen's mother didn't speak, so she followed Chen's mother's eyes and saw Chen's mother looking at the things in her house.

Speaking of the things in the house, they were basically sent by Zhao Nanke.

Since she entered Kyoto, Zhao Nanke has sent a lot of things, probably for the sake of Old Man Zhao. What surprised Xia Ruan the most was that Jia Nanjia, a high-ranking businessman who lived in an alley with her, actually asked Zhao Nanke to send a lot of things. She had refused many times, but this time counting too much was equivalent to sweeping the face of Zhao Nanke and the Nan family, so she took some of it and put it in the house.

The He family has long been ruined now, and they need silver everywhere, so where can they give the He family many good things?

"Mother Chen, is there something wrong today?" Xia Ruan asked.

Mother Chen was looking at the blue and white porcelain vase resting not far away, and was startled by Xia Ruan's voice, and quickly withdrew her divine words: "The old slave has seen Miss, and the old slave has asked Miss to say goodbye." ”

Saying that, Mother Chen blessed her body and continued: "The old lady asked the old slave to bring a message to the young lady, she is sick these days, and it is not convenient to call you to sit down." But Miss, forgive the old slave for talking too much, although the old lady didn't speak, but you still have to call the old lady grandmother, the old lady is going to be sick now, and you don't know how to come to visit? ”

Xia Ruan almost laughed when he heard this.

She never regarded He Cui as her grandmother, and she never planned to call He Cui her grandmother. Just as the third uncle has only called He Cui as a wife over the years, she has called He Cui an old lady at most......

"Mother Chen, what do you mean, it's mine, isn't it?" Xia Ruan looked at Mother Chen's eyes, a little more cold, "The old lady is sick, why should I bother." ”

The smile in Chen's mother's eyes deepened when she heard this.

She looked a little serious, and there was some reprimand in her words: "Miss, it is impossible to say that, the old lady is sick, you should be by your side, how can it be disturbing." The old slave knew what he said, and the young lady didn't like to listen to it, but the lady didn't teach the young lady all these years, so the old slave naturally wanted to tell the old lady about the young lady. At this time, Miss, you are not filial piety, and you will be chewed on the root of your tongue in the future. ”

Xia Ruan laughed angrily, and couldn't help but answer: "If I don't go to the old lady's side to serve, will someone chew the root of the tongue?" ”

Mother Chen couldn't help but be a little surprised when she saw Xia Ruan laughing.

Shouldn't Xia Ruan at this time start to reflect on his mistakes? You still laugh......

Chen's mother thinks that this young lady is not scared stupid, otherwise how could this be.

"This old slave doesn't dare to say it, but after all, you have to call the old lady a grandmother, and the old man will be happier to serve the old lady at this time." Mother Chen continued, "Miss, the old slave is all for your good, after all, you haven't decided on a family affair yet, if this old man likes you, the family affair in the coming day will naturally be better." ”

Du Ruoting's brows furrowed: "Bold, how can you talk about Miss's affairs." ”

At this time, Chen's mother glanced at Du Ruo disdainfully, feeling a little funny.

She didn't take Du Ruo in her eyes at all, if it weren't for Du Ruo ruining the old lady's good deeds that day, then the Li family would have already been dealt with by the old lady, maybe the Xia family would have to get out of Kyoto that day.

All this is because Du Ruo in front of her is so eventful, and Chen's mother can't understand that the old lady would actually let her do this today.

But Mother Chen felt that what she said today was what the old lady meant, so naturally she didn't need to look at Xia Ruan's face, she came on behalf of the old lady.

"Miss Du Ruo, you are just a maid, and there are no rules for saying these things." Mother Chen glanced at Du Ruo and said resentfully, "The old slave is just teaching the young lady the rules, teaching the young lady how to fulfill her filial piety, what did the old slave say wrong?" ”

Looking at Chen's mother's appearance, Xia Ruan's expression did not change.

Does He want to give her another horse?

She felt that there was not only a meaning in this, but also other meanings.

Xia Ruan smiled lightly: "Huh? Did the old lady ask Chen's mother to tell me these words? ”

Chen's mother was stunned, but she didn't expect Xia Ruan to ask like this.

Naturally, these words were said by the old lady, but she could not admit that they were said by the old lady.

After all, if the old lady says something, she has lost her identity, so she needs to convey it to her, the mother-in-law who serves by the old lady's side.

"Naturally, it wasn't the old lady's meaning." Chen's mother quickly vetoed, "But ......"

Xia Ruan directly interrupted Chen's mother's words: "Where did Chen's mother accompany the old lady to Li's house from where did she go?" ”

Mother Chen was stunned, glanced at Xia Ruan, and then raised her head arrogantly and said, "The old slave has been following the old lady for more than ten years, so naturally." ”

This kind of Mother Chen made Xia Ruan feel stupid.

"Have these old ladies told you Mother Chen, to be a subordinate, you have to do your duty." Xia Ruan said slowly, "But Mother Chen also said just now, this is not what the old lady meant, and you use the old lady's tone to reprimand me, it seems that Mother Chen is the person who does not understand the rules the most." ”

Mother Chen was dumbfounded, she naturally didn't expect Xia Ruan to dare to refute her words, after all, she is here now, but on behalf of the old lady: "The old slave is not wrong. ”

"Tricky mother-in-law." Xia Ruan stood up, looked at Chen's mother and said, "Today, I will personally ask the old lady if a random mother-in-law and maid beside her can bully me now." ”

Mother Chen's face turned pale with fright, but she still pretended to be calm: "Miss, no...... In fact, the young lady doesn't have to serve by the old lady's side, and the old slave also said the same, you don't have to take it to heart. But you...... But you have to do your filial piety. A few days ago, the old lady saw that Du Ruo, a little maid, would help her pulse, and Dr. Du was driven away by the third master, so she was ready to let Du Ruo go to the house to fill this gap. The old lady also appreciates Du Ruo, otherwise Du Ruo, a little girl from the countryside, where can she be blessed to serve the old lady. ”

Xia Ruan raised her eyebrows and looked at Chen's mother, but did not speak, it turned out that this was the purpose of the He family.

How is Du Ruo's medical skills, she naturally saw it that day, and the He family will let Du Ruo go over definitely not because of Du Ruo's medical skills. He will let Du Ruo go over in order to vent his anger.

Mother Chen came over and first threatened her for not fulfilling her filial piety, and then brought up the matter of taking Du Ruo away, thinking that things would fall into place-

Xia Ruan felt that He really underestimated her.

It seems that the incident of her driving Chen's mother back that day did not alert He to that she was not an easy person. (To be continued......)
