Chapter 15 Aunt Zhaofu
The weather at the end of summer is so hot that people can't stand it, and they keep screaming in the trees when they know it, and they know it, and they make people upset. The pen "Fun" pavilion www.biquge.info the sun is shining outside the room, this is the early morning, there is a trace of cool air at the beginning of the day, as soon as the sun shows its head, there is only heat left.
Mrs. Wei made a good burden, and she was so hot that she was sweating, sticky, and her skin and flesh were sticking to her clothes, which was very uncomfortable, so she specially brought hot water to scrub it again, and it was more comfortable.
Outside the house was a handlebar that had been taken care of a long time ago, and this handlebar was an authentic carriage, waiting to take her to Zhao's mansion. Although the carriage is more expensive, it is stable and fast, and it is a sedan chair, so it is much more comfortable to sit on than a wooden cart drawn by a mule. However, sitting in the comfortable carriage, Mrs. Wei's mood is heavy, she has never been a stupid person, besides, she has lived for so many decades, and she has seen a lot of things, her husband has passed away, and there are many things about his wife and concubine remarrying, Qian Yuning She doesn't want to care, let her marry, although the daughter she gave birth to is her own granddaughter, but after all, she is not a grandson, and she cannot inherit the incense of the old Wei family, and now the most important thing is Qiuyun's belly.
Thinking nervously along the way, Mrs. Wei's old illness recurred, coughing severely, and the handlebars saw that she was really going to cough out her heart and lungs, and she couldn't bear it, so she asked Mrs. Wei if she wanted to find a tea shop to drink tea and take a break. But Mrs. Wei saw that Qiuyun was anxious, where was she willing to rest, so she waved her hand again and again, saying that it didn't matter to herself, it was important to hurry, and there was no way to do the handlebar, so she could only speed up and hurry. To say that this carriage is much faster than the mule cart, it only took an hour to reach the Zhao Mansion.
Zhao Yuan is just a small county man, but the house he lives in is not small, it can be said that it is a small official mansion, a red-walled and blue-tiled mansion with three entrances and three exits, in the center of the county, no matter what, it costs five thousand taels of silver. Zhao Xiancheng's Fenglu for a month is five taels, and it takes a hundred years without eating or drinking to afford such a house.
It is said that Zhao Xiancheng is not only this one house, there is also a house similar to this one in Yongzhou City, and the Zhao family wears silk and satin, and eats delicacies from the mountains and seas, which can really be described as spending money like flowing water, in the eyes of the people in this small place, people like Zhao Xiancheng are the aristocratic emperors, what they want, what they want, what they want, it is really a fairy-like day.
There is also a saying, everyone doesn't know where to hear some rumors, saying that Zhao County Chengben has no money, just a poor scholar, just because he has done well in his studies and articles, he was taken by a big official in the capital and became someone's son-in-law. Therefore, it is not that Zhao Xiancheng is rich, but that Mrs. Zhao's family has the right to be rich.
In any case, a character like Zhao Xiancheng needs to be looked up to by ordinary people, and Mrs. Wei is no exception, although she is the mother of the old man, and she has seen more of the world than ordinary people, but when she arrives at the door of Zhao's mansion, she is also uneasy. Thinking of the miserable appearance of her nephew being beaten into a pig's head by the Zhao Mansion Nursing Home two days ago, Mrs. Wei's face turned pale, but thinking of the golden grandson in Qiuyun's belly, Mrs. Wei didn't know where to give birth to a sense of courage, and walked straight forward and knocked on the vermilion gate of Zhao Mansion.
"Squeak", the door opened a crack, and a young man in Tsing Yi poked out of it, and saw an old lady standing outside the door, so he asked, "Old man, who are you looking for?" ”
Mrs. Wei hurriedly stepped forward, took out the ten copper plates that had been counted a long time ago from her arms, handed them to the little guy, and said in the innermost: "Big nephew, I'm looking for Qiuyun, is she there." ”
"Oh! You're looking for Aunt Qiuyun! She went out today, saying that she was going to pick up an aunt, so I think it's you! The little guy took the money and smiled brightly.
"Aunt Qiuyun?" Mrs. Wei asked, repeating the words, and doubts gradually arose in her heart.
"Yes! You don't know yet! Hello to you, since the old man accepted Aunt Qiuyun, it is a spoil, what do you want, what does it hurt, you are really blessed, such a niece. The little guy laughed.
After hearing this, Mrs. Wei still didn't understand anything, her heart suddenly disappeared, empty, and the whole person collapsed, feeling that she didn't have any strength in her body, so she slipped and fell to the ground. This time, the little guy was bluffed, what happened to this old man, what happened to him, how could he be dizzy, he hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and called someone to help, and he was busy for a while.
In the middle of the day, Mrs. Wei felt that someone was staring at her in her sleep, and soon woke up, and saw that there was indeed a person standing next to the bed, at this time it was late, the afterglow of the sunset shone on a corner of the courtyard, and the bright flowers were still blooming brilliantly in the last sun, but because of the lack of light, the room had been darkened, and the person was carrying the sun, looking at it from the front, and she couldn't see her face clearly. She wore a water-red light gauze shirt, a white jade at her waist, an emerald green bracelet on each hand, a woman's flowing fairy sideburns on her head, and a pair of ruby earrings on her ears that sparkled in the afterglow of the setting sun. Neither of them spoke, Mrs. Wei looked at the person in front of her, as if she had never known her, she now looks like a noble lady, but in fact, not long ago, she was just a maid, her son Mingyuan's maid, a concubine, but now she has become a noble lady. Mrs. Wei looked at her belly, a wave of despair struck, she tentatively spoke, and said, "You, Qiuyun, is the child in your belly okay?" ”
This time, Qiu Yun didn't gossip with Mrs. Wei as before, she directly made a cold face, slanted her eyebrows, and glanced at Mrs. Wei: "What belly, child, I am the new aunt who is accepted by Master Zhao, where is it so soon, Madame must not be mistaken." After saying this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and Qiu Yun saw that Mrs. Wei wanted to speak again, so he preemptively said: "Wei Juren died, Mrs. as a mother, it is normal for people to be sad, don't be too sad, confused, it's not good to say anything foolish." I heard that Wei Juren also has a little girl, I don't know how good she looks? Now that his father is gone, I don't know if she can grow up safely, and children without a father are always easy to die. ”
Qiu Yun's words are light and light, as if she has practiced thousands of times, where is her appearance still half a point to be a maid and half a point to be a little low, it seems that she has learned how to be a powerful aunt in a short period of time. After hearing this, Mrs. Wei was so shocked that three souls went to two souls, and seven souls fell to four souls, she wanted to stand up and ask again with confidence, where is the child? Is it still in your Qiuyun's stomach or has it been beaten, but remembering Qiuyun's words just now, she didn't dare to move again, her body collapsed on the bed softly, she couldn't say anything, only a pair of unwilling eyes turned helplessly, her mouth was wide open, and she kept panting, and the voice was like a broken bellows.
After saying this, Qiuyun went out, and after a while, a chubby mother-in-law in her forties came in, with a smell of oil smoke on her body, she didn't speak when she came in, and went directly to help Mrs. Wei who was lying on the bed, her movements were rude and she didn't know how important it was, and she didn't care if Mrs. Wei could stand it or not, so she just helped Mrs. Wei up. Put on her shoes and get out of bed, Mrs. Wei was almost unsteady, but the mother-in-law was strong, and she directly half-supported and half-pulled Mrs. Wei out of the Zhao Mansion, and the two hurried through the small garden, and after a while they arrived at the back door of the Zhao Mansion, the back door was half-hidden, no one guarded it, and it opened with a gentle push. The coachman who had sent Mrs. Wei was waiting outside the door in the carriage, and he saw Mrs. Wei coming out, and it seemed that she was not very easy to walk, so he came forward to help her, and together with the fat woman, she helped Mrs. Wei, who was already weak, into the carriage and lay down.
