Chapter 78: Grounding

It was late at night, and white dew fell on the green plantain fan leaves. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The lights of the Lilac Garden are especially bright.

Aunt Wang put away the small abacus made of pure gold, and instructed Mother Zhao to pick up the account book: "Find a time, let the shopkeeper Hu come to see me once, it is June, and the newly made balsam should also be distributed." ”

Zhao's mother responded: "Hey, the old slave knows, auntie should rest early." ”

The maid picked the wick of the butter lamp with the silver burial boy, and a fire shadow came out and landed on the oil surface, making a stabbing sound, Aunt Wang stroked her waist-length black hair, and said lazily and sleepily: "I'm afraid it's not so easy to sleep tonight." ”

As he was talking, the maid outside the door came in and reported: "Auntie, the second master is here." ”

As soon as the maid's voice fell, Second Master Qiao seemed to come in the moonlight, and there was a faint cold air around him.

Aunt Wang seemed to be a little disgusted, and a little arrogant and lay still, just supporting her head with one hand: "It's so late, why is the second master here?" Don't you have to go to the government tomorrow? ”

Second Master Qiao is not surprised by her attitude, and sometimes, he likes Aunt Wang's style of never flattering.

It's just that today, the anger in his heart that he doesn't know where it came from, has never been able to find an outlet.

"What has Feng'er been busy with lately? I heard that you have sought a miracle doctor? Second Master Qiao inquired about some things from the steward of the department, and became more and more suspicious of Aunt Wang.

A maid brought new tea up, Aunt Wang's eyes were gloomy, as if she would fall asleep in the next moment, she said in a light tone: "The second master is well-informed, he knows everything, and he came to ask the concubine what she is doing----" She yawned again and again, and the tail note dragged on for a long time, and when she raised her hand to cover her lips, the gold and jade double-ring bracelet on her wrist made a crisp sound.

Second Master Qiao squinted, his chest had suppressed emotions for many years, as if he had been ignited, he stood still and looked down at Aunt Wang on the chaise longue, and said word by word: "Xiao Tingxuan's matter is related to you?" ”

Aunt Wang suddenly hooked her lips and smiled, the charm still existed, and the red dust was slender and charming, she asked rhetorically: "What did the second master say?" The concubine has been very busy lately, and she has done too many things, so she really can't remember. ”

"You!" Second Master Qiao was angry, but he didn't know what to do with her, so he asked again: "I ask you, the child in Xia He's womb, did you do it!" Are you afraid that she will give birth to my flesh and blood and share your favor? ”

Aunt Wang rarely saw Second Master Qiao speak so bluntly, her expression darkened, smoothed the underwear that became wrinkled because she was lying on her side, and said in a daze: "Second Master himself also said, the concubine invited a divine doctor to come to see her, and the divine doctor also said that the concubine is pregnant with a child is just around the corner, how can I compete with a thin horse, how can the child in her womb be compared with my child, Second Master, don't forget, the concubine has half of the Wang family under her name!" ”

The Wang family is rich in the world, and half of the Wang family can imagine how rich it is!

In addition to the secular concept of Shinong and business, Aunt Wang's life is incomparable to that of ordinary wives.

The furnishings, food, jewelry, and fabrics in the Lilac Garden are not the best of the best.

Second Master Qiao was speechless for a while, and people with discerning eyes could also see that Xia He's abdominal pain was no longer possible except for Tao and Aunt Wang.

It would be nice for both of them to skim themselves out.

Second Master Qiao was silent, and Aunt Wang said again: "The concubine is really tired these days, and she is too lazy to go to the house, if the second master feels that he can't live with the woman in the outer courtyard, he simply forbids the concubine's feet." ”

Aunt Wang's indifferent attitude made Second Master Qiao lose his mind, but he suddenly became suspicious again: "If you have a clear conscience, how can you take the initiative to ask for grounding?" ”

"The second master is the heaven of the entire second room, and what the second master says is what it is." Aunt Wang said again, still breezy and calm.

Mother Zhao on the side was frightened when she heard this, and she didn't know what her young lady had in mind, how could she have such an idea! No wonder she asked Shopkeeper Hu to come to see her, instead of going to the shop by herself, could it be that she had thought about it in advance!?

"You ---!" Second Master Qiao was angry and incoherent, there was such a golden Buddha in the backyard, his career could be described as unimpeded, and Wang Chonglin, the young owner of the Wang family, was even close to the emperor.

Recently, what kind of Laoshzi pill was offered, and the dragon face in the court was happy.

"Good! Good! You said it yourself. Second Master Qiao turned to the servants of Lilac Garden: "From today on, my aunt is unwell and will not be allowed to leave this courtyard gate for a month!" If anyone lets her out without permission, the family law will deal with it! ”

Although Aunt Wang's subordinates were brought from the Wang family, as the concubine of Second Master Qiao, the servants naturally became the subordinates of the Qiao family, and Second Master Qiao could dispose of them at will.

Kill, beat, or sell!

Second Master Qiao stepped on the moon and left with a breath, and he only stayed for half an hour before and after, which was the shortest time he had ever spent in Lilac Garden.

Mother Zhao felt sorry for Aunt Wang, and said worriedly: "Auntie, how can this be good?" Second master, he is clearly suspicious of you. ”

"Heh--- that's what I want!" Aunt Wang yawned again and again, and drowsiness hit, no one could stop it, so she covered her head and fell asleep, whether it was a chaise longue or a bed.

Zhao's mother lightly covered her with a thin cover.

------

Early the next morning, the news of Aunt Wang's grounding spread in Qiao's mansion, which undoubtedly confirmed that Aunt Wang was the culprit who caused Xia He's abdominal pain.

Qiao Ruowan's breakfast in the Dow Courtyard, in order to maintain her slender figure over the years, she has eaten very little.

"Mother, I really didn't expect Aunt Wang to be so stupid, it's okay, you will soon have one less rival, but it's a pity that the child in the thin horse's belly was not taken down by her." Qiao Ruowan tasted a bowl of minced millet porridge and said contemptuously.

Dow was in a good mood today, and deliberately changed into a cherry blossom red embroidered Baji pattern gown that she hadn't worn for a long time, and she smiled disdainfully: "Hmph! How capable can the daughter of a businessman be, your father has undoubtedly valued the wealth of the Wang family over the years, so he has protected her everywhere, this will be a Xia He, I see how arrogant she is! ”

At this point, Tao's face suddenly stiffened, and the porcelain spoon in his hand fell into the porcelain bowl with a 'snap'.

She seemed to remember something.

Qiao Ruowan frowned, her tone was light and light, and she asked, "Mother also thinks that thin horse looks like a person?" ”

It took a while for Tao to accept this fact, and when Qiao Ruowan mentioned it, he was touched again: "So what? She's just a dusty woman, and she can't turn the sky upside down! ”

Five days later.

On the top of the triple small pavilion of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, Chu Chen held a slender knife in his hand, he touched the dark blue stubble on his chin, and remembered what the little woman had said in his previous life: "Brother Chen looks better when he doesn't grow a beard." ”

He is a grown man, how can he not grow a beard!

She was bold and wanton, raised her foot and stretched out her hand to grab his chin left and right a few times, and commented: "Brother Chen's beard is still different. ”

He couldn't hold back for a while, and asked, "Su Su has also touched other people's chins?" This is completely unconscious.

At that time, I heard her innocently say: "Guess! ”

At that time, he wanted to ask her if she had ever been so close to other men, but reason told him that none of this had anything to do with him, although the jealousy in his heart could not be hidden.

He has always been indifferent, seeing her as a dispensable existence!

has been pretending for a long time, and even he himself has taken it seriously, but from the moment he sent her to the sedan chair with his own hands, he couldn't break free from the pain in his heart.

"Lord Shizi, the time is almost up, presumably the girl of the Bai family has already arrived at Baoyue Tower." Wang Pu's words interrupted Chu Chen's memories of his previous life.

He gathered his mind and shaved off the cyan stubble with great skill.

The little woman said that she was going to feast him, but he wanted to see what kind of banquet she was going to make.
