37: The attitude of the old lady
Xue Chengjiao's good mood was quickly interrupted, followed by apprehension and doubt. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Because Mrs. Zhang ordered someone to come to Xiao Yaju to call her, saying that she had something to ask.
She still remembered the last time the old lady called her to Jinghetang, because she pointed to Cui Qiong, and the old lady asked her a few words half-beating and half-warning.
Although this matter is over, the old lady did not pursue it, but she has not been to ask for peace these days, since Feng Shi arrived in Yingtianfu, the old lady has never let her go to accompany the meal, and today suddenly looked for her...... This couldn't help but make Xue Chengjiao's heart hang.
Followed Chang'an all the way into Jinghe Hall, the little girl opened the curtain to welcome her in, and when she arrived in the inner room, she found that even Jinling was not there, only Cao's mother was alone in the house.
Xue Chengjiao stepped forward a few steps and bowed her knees to say hello, but she didn't hear the old lady's words of sitting, so she had to stand in the hall with her hands in her hands.
After a long time, the old lady asked her, "Are the wounds on your forehead healed?" ”
Xue Chengjiao was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly replied: "The medicine prepared by Sun Niangzi is very useful, and there are still some faint traces at the moment, but it will be completely eliminated in a few days."
The old lady snorted: "Fortunately, there was no scar, otherwise your aunt would not have returned to Baoding so easily." ”
Xue Chengjiao didn't understand what the old lady wanted to do, and at this time, she was afraid that she would say too much wrong, so she simply smiled lightly and didn't say a word.
The old lady moved her body, leaned on the cushion in a different position, and seemed to sigh heavily: "Your aunt has always done things in a measured manner, but this time she nodded and gave your aunt 50,000 taels of silver, I don't want to say much about her," the voice paused, "I asked someone to take 80,000 silver and count it into your treasury, as for the two shops, it should be sold, 30,000 taels is not a lot." ”
Xue Chengjiao was taken aback and hurriedly called out to the old lady.
But when she looked up, she found that the old lady's eyes were deep, as if she wanted to suck her in, and her expression was smiling rather than smiling.
Xue Chengjiao chuckled in her heart, and said in an urn voice: "The silver is what I asked my aunt to give to my aunt, it was my idea." ”
The old lady really narrowed her eyes, but she was not surprised at all: "You called it?" Didn't you want to do it at first? Otherwise, why would Feng Shi shoot and hurt people. Why did you change your mind after a few days? ”
Test! Another damn temptation!
The old lady didn't trust her at all, and tried her again and again, as long as she made a little move, the old lady would look at her and wouldn't question her, but she didn't say a word about what she knew in her chest.
This time, she clearly knew that it was her idea to give Feng Shi silver, but she said that she would give her 80,000 taels of silver.
Xue Chengjiao's heart was cold, she still has a lot of things to do in the future, at least the most important thing for now is to drive Jiang Yunbi out of the Cui family, but Mrs. Zhang's status in the Cui family is very important, she doesn't trust herself like this, what else can she do in the future?
However, she can only endure it, she can only pretend to be pitiful, this is what it is like to be under the fence!
Xue Chengjiao's eyes were quickly stained with sadness: "Old lady, I know that my aunt came this time and made a lot of ugly things, first hurt me, and then threatened my aunt, I don't know how many people are watching my jokes," she suddenly looked up, "My jokes are my aunt's jokes." When my aunt first came, I was reluctant to give her the money, but after a few days, I changed my mind, I didn't want to show people a joke, and I didn't want to bother my aunt, especially ......"
She sniffed and said no more.
The old lady saw it in her eyes and took over quietly: "Especially after Jiang Yunbi entered the mansion, right?" ”
Xue Chengjiao nodded: "Actually, you are like a mirror in your heart." ”
"Cheng Jiao." The old lady called out and beckoned to her.
Xue Chengjiao did not delay at his feet, and moved his steps forward.
The old lady took her plain little hand, asked her to sit down beside her, and said with some seriousness: "From your intercession with Sister Ying, to that root, to this Feng incident, you know that I have seen it all, but I haven't bothered with you, do you know why?" ”
Xue Chengjiao's mouth moved, but when the words came to his mouth, he still stopped and shook his head: "I don't know." ”
The old lady laughed: "It's nothing, Sister Ying has done more out-of-the-ordinary things than you, and her grandmother has never punished her." You are so thoughtful at a young age, I think most of it is because you live in our house, you have to look at people's faces in everything, you don't dare to say much, and you don't dare to make a mistake in acting. Although I am usually stricter, I am not an unkind person, so I don't care about you, but just remind you a few words at the time to make you afraid. ”
Xue Chengjiao sighed: "Old lady......"
Mrs. Zhang patted the back of her hand a few times: "You can't say anything to others, you are a good girl who is frank and open." Counting this time, it's the third time, do you know what I'm going to say? ”
"It's not a matter of three." Xue Chengjiao's voice sank.
"That's smart." The old lady's smile became brighter, "Children, it's indispensable to make trouble, what do you do in the future, I won't mention you again, and I won't warn you again, I don't know what I can tolerate, but if you let me can't tolerate it, I'll go too far," the old lady smiled, and held Cheng Jiao's hand tightly, "Cui family, you won't be able to live." ”
Xue Chengjiao's pupils suddenly dilated a little, and a hanging heart fell, and she took a few deep breaths: "I have written down everything you said." ”
The old lady told her a few more words, and let her go.
When she withdrew, the old lady's face sank: "You go, a person with a broken mouth will give five taels of silver, and ask someone from their house to bring it back, and the servants of the family will rush to Zhuangzi, and they will never be allowed to enter the second gate again." ”
Cao's mother belched: "Then do you feel sorry for the girl, or do you not look down on the girl like this?" ”
The old lady was silent for a long time: "The children and grandchildren under my knees are either as calm as Sister Qiong, or as innocent as Sister Ying, or as if they were Sister Yu, Sister Qi, and Sister Lang." With their parents at home, their brothers to support, and grandmothers to take care of, they can't calculate anyone, and they don't have to worry about themselves. The old lady's hand knocked on her thigh, "I've never been used to seeing such an unsightly little action, but I don't care about her, you feel sorry for me, and when I give the eldest daughter-in-law a face," he said and smiled, "Speaking of which, I really think this little girl is very good, train and train well, and she will be a person who can do things in the future." ”
Cao's mother smiled with her: "You just scared the girl so much, when you first came in, your face turned pale, and you didn't dare to raise your head, and you didn't dare to look at you." ”
"But if she can still reply to my words, it proves that she is not a coward." The old lady took a sip of her, "You old thing, do your business." ”
Cao's mother smiled and withdrew, and then stopped talking.
