Chapter 3 Visits

The mother-in-law who had just spoken disrespectfully was still calm, and she forgot to put down the bead curtain in her hand. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

She was so shocked! How could Miss Seven say such a thing? In the past, she didn't dare to talk back, how could she die once, she didn't stutter anymore, and her face became thicker! It's obviously her, why did she get involved with Mrs. for no reason!

It's just like the Xie family of unknown origin, they are all shameless! will have nothing to do all day long.

The woman's eyes couldn't hide her surprise, her face turned white with anger, and her mouth was open for a long time, but she couldn't hold back a word.

Madame's thoughts are what she, a subordinate, can guess at will!

For a while, she really couldn't find anything to refute, if she said something wrong, it was Madame's.

Seeing that she still wanted to have a seizure, the other mother-in-law reminded her with good words: "Madame has repeatedly told that Miss Seven can't make the slightest mistake when she returns home, and at this juncture, she can't be caught." ”

Which of the ladies in the Prime Minister's Mansion is not beautiful and outstanding, and a discerning person can understand the twists and turns at a glance, but the master does not deny it for a day, and the girl is still the seventh lady in the mansion.

If outsiders think that Mrs. does not take good care of Miss Seven, it will be a big slap in the face to the master.

The woman weighed it, lowered the beaded curtain, and endured the anger in her heart.

The errand men in the mansion of Gaomen all know the truth of seeing the wind and making the rudder and acting when the opportunity arises. Although she was reluctant, she also led Miss Seven back to her courtyard in a proper manner.

The courtyard is not large, located near the northwest compound of the Xiangfu, and it is even a little simple compared to the other courtyards of the Xiangfu.

Weeds have grown in the corners of the ruined walls, and there are only simple bedboards, tables, chairs, old cabinets, and some daily necessities such as tea sets.

However, under the eaves, there are two pots of flowers in full bloom.

Su Ximei's gaze stayed on the two pots of flowers for a moment, then raised her feet and walked towards the house.

The two mothers-in-law cleaned up indiscriminately, and then left in disgust. Such a dilapidated courtyard is not even visible to them.

In the late spring of March, the Prime Minister's Mansion was full of flowers, but only the courtyard in the northwest chamber was deserted, and Su Ximei ended up quiet.

After the two mothers-in-law left, she leaned on the door frame to calculate the situation in the house, but at this time, there was a sudden sound of small footsteps outside the courtyard gate, sometimes hurried, sometimes slow, but never came in.

Su Ximei's brows furrowed slightly, and her gentle gaze suddenly became sharp.

Who is it?

Isn't Zheng still worried about her?

The thought turned, but Su Ximei shook her head.

The Zheng family only regarded her as a stupid girl who was powerless, and in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zheng would not send anyone to spy on her.

Who could that be?

Su Ximei walked to the courtyard gate, and suddenly reached out and opened the wooden door that was about to fall apart.

"Squeak!" A bang.

The servant woman outside the door was startled, turned around and looked up.

Su Ximei also raised her eyes to look at the comer.

Mother Tong!

A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Tong's mother is the companion of the original wife Zhao of the Prime Minister's Su Lord, and she is a child of the family, and later got married, so she followed her husband's surname.

The Zhao family is the queen of the gate, and the Zhao family's father is the hereditary Zhao Guogong, but the descendants of the Guogong Mansion are incompetent, and no one in the clan has been able to make a difference in the court in the past ten years.

But for Su De, the old man of Su more than 20 years ago, he was still a doctor of the Eight Grades and Five Classics of the Hanlin Academy at that time, and it was a great honor to be able to climb to the Zhao Guogong Mansion and marry his sister-in-law.

Even if the Guogong Mansion is not as good as before, it is still a hereditary first-class military marquis.

The ancestors of the Zhao family once fought side by side with the founding emperor and called him brothers, Su De was just a poor student from a poor family, and he was able to marry back to the Zhao family, I don't know how many others were envious.

But five years ago, Zhao died of illness, although Su De did not renew the string, but the concubine Zheng was deeply loved by Su De, after five years of hard work, Zheng's status in the Prime Minister's Mansion was regarded as the same as Mrs. Xiangye.

"Miss Seven, are you really okay?"

With tears in her eyes, Tong's mother watched her stand by the door intact, raising her sleeve and wiping the corners of her eyes.

Su Ximei smiled and nodded.

"Mother Tong, I'm really fine."

Facing the March sunshine, Mother Tong looked at the smile on her face, as gorgeous as the morning glow, and dazzled her eyes for a while.

Is she really Miss Seven?

Her bright eyes never seemed to have existed.

Su Ximei smiled and asked, "Is the eldest sister okay?" ”

Miss Su Hui of Zhao's Prime Minister's Mansion, since she married King Ling, Tong's mother also married to King Ling's Mansion. I thought I got the news and asked Mother Tong to go back to her house to see herself.

Mother Tong followed Su Ximei to the small courtyard, and suddenly heard this question, and hurriedly turned around and walked to the door and closed the courtyard door.

Su Ximei frowned when she saw that her expression was different.

"Mother Tong, what's wrong with the eldest sister?" She asked.

In her previous life, she grew up in the Dart Bureau, and in addition to being skilled, she was also a calculating person. It's just that her calculations are all used in buying and selling, but she is not right about things.

However, to walk on the road, she is also sophisticated.

Besides, Mother Tong's expression was solemn, and she was so cautious in such a remote northwest chamber, she probably guessed that something was wrong with the eldest sister.

Mother Tong wiped her tears and knelt in front of her with a "plop".

Su Ximei hurriedly reached out to help.

"Mother Tong, I can't help it."

Mother Tong looked firm and shook her head with tears in her eyes.

"Miss Seven, you must help the eldest lady, I have no choice, you must help the eldest lady." As she spoke, she kowtowed heavily.

In the eyes of everyone, Miss Su Qi of the Prime Minister's Mansion is an ugly fool.

If Mother Tong was not forced to have no way out, she would never have found herself.

It seems that she really has no other way.

Su Ximei reached out to help her up, patted her on the shoulder and sat down in the room, before asking what happened.

Su Hui is the only person in the Prime Minister's Mansion who is good to Miss Su Qi. Every New Year's holiday, she will send Tong's mother to send some hairpin jewelry or something. So compared to others, Mother Tong and Miss Su Qi are naturally closer.

Mother Tong looked up at Miss Seven and felt that she seemed to be different from before.

He spoke sharply and acted prudently.

Could it be that after this great tribulation, Miss Seven's exquisite heart has been enlightened?

If this is the case, the eldest lady must be very happy.

Thinking of the eldest lady, Mother Tong's eyes were covered with a layer of mist.

"The eldest lady is really pitiful, thinking that she is married to a good husband, how can you think that the prince does not have her in his heart at all!" Thinking of this, Mother Tong's throat was very sour, and she almost couldn't breathe with a breath in her chest.

Su Ximei poured a glass of water and handed it to her, although the water was cold, it could also moisten her throat and relieve her qi for the time being.

"Is the eldest sister having a bad time in the Lingwang Mansion?" She asked.

Since Su Hui married King Ling, in Miss Seven's previous memories, it seems that she has never met this sister, and it is Tong's mother who comes to visit her during the New Year's festival or when she returns to the house for a banquet.

Miss Seven has always been a loner, and no one in the house will pay attention to her, so she has a deep memory in retrospect.

Before Su Hui got married, King Ling was really good to her, and even Miss Seven, who didn't ask about the world at the beginning, could see the happy smile on her face.

But after listening to what Tong's mother said, she probably had a bottom in her heart, and she was more sure of her guess.

Mother Tong swallowed a mouthful of water, but the tears fell aggrievedly.

"Since the eldest lady married into the Lingwang Mansion, the Lingwang rarely stepped into the eldest lady's house." She wiped her tears and beat her chest twice, looking very distressed, "King Ling's heart is all on the second lady's body, and the eldest lady can't say if she is bitter." ”

Tong's mother didn't know why she said so much, but she just said it.

It seems that she has never spoken to Miss Seven like she did today, only that Miss Seven is still a little girl.

Maybe there's really no way. Or maybe it was Miss Seven's calm eyes that made her say it unconsciously.

The eldest lady's grievances, she wants to say it.

Su Ximei was silent and did not speak.

The eldest sister has always been knowledgeable, disciplined, docile, and filial to her elders.

My father is interested in family and prosperity, and with the temperament of the eldest sister, she will never take these jealous trivial matters of the Lingwang Mansion as a matter.

Although Mother Tong only mentioned one sentence, this sentence is enough to show that the eldest sister is walking on thin ice in the Lingwang Mansion.

At the beginning, King Ling came to propose marriage, and Zheng thought that in the future, there would be sisters in the Lingwang Mansion to take care of each other, and the eldest sister allowed the second sister Su Luo to marry King Ling as a side concubine.

In his father's opinion, Zheng's arrangement not only understood the general situation, but also hit his heart. King Ling is the most loved prince by the emperor other than the crown prince, and if both daughters marry him, it will be of great help to his father's career.
