Cui Qiong sent Cheng Jiao back to Xiaoyaju, and before she sat down, she hadn't even eaten a cup of tea, and Poria outside handed her a message into the house, saying that his wife had called the girl over. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Xue Chengjiao knew that her aunt was unhappy about her exculpating Cui Ying, so she didn't dare to delay at the moment, and went over with Cui Qiong with her, Cui Qiong laughed at her twice, and went to the upper room hand in hand with her.

Mrs. Runda's daily residence is in the leftmost one of Shun'an Hall, which is also a five-room structure, and the middle one is the main hall, and the furnishings are not mentioned.

Xue Chengjiao and Cui Qiong went all the way into the house to see Mrs. Runda, and the two of them asked for peace again, when she looked up, Mrs. Runda pursed her lips and solemnly wrote all the unhappiness on her face.

She was originally a very clever person, and when she didn't come to Cui's house in her previous life, she was also a good hand at coquettish and foolish with her mother at home, but later because she was an orphan girl living in a guest house, she put away all those careful thoughts, lest she be looked down upon and annoyed.

Now seeing that her aunt was angry, she rushed over with a smile and shook Mrs. Runda's arm: "Auntie, what's wrong?" I think Sister Poria made you angry," she raised her little face and smiled at Mrs. Runda, "When my uncle-in-law comes back, I will have to sue her." ”

Mrs. Runda snorted, pulled her arm out of her arms, and glanced at her obliquely: "In this case, your uncle's house came in the evening, you can go and ask for forgiveness yourself." ”

Xue Chengjiao pursed her lips and said angrily: "Why is it my fault?" ”

"Still playing stupid with me?" When Mrs. Runda looked at her like this, she only felt angry and funny.

originally knew that Xue Chengjiao asked Cui Ying to push into the water, and she couldn't help herself with anger.

Not to mention what kind of lintel the Gao family in Baoding Mansion is, just say that the Xue family has been an official for generations, Cui Ying dares to do this, and there is too no one in her eyes.

Besides, now Xue Chengjiao came to her, and she was entrusted by her own sister on her deathbed, but not long after the girl moved in, she almost killed someone?

Cui Ying may be unintentional, but in her opinion, it is like a slap in the face in life.

She is the daughter-in-law of the Cui family, and she is the wife of the family, so she has to bully her niece like this, don't you turn against the sky in the future?

Therefore, it is better to give Cheng Jiao a head start, or to give herself prestige, I originally heard that Kang's brought Cui Ying over to make amends, and she was determined to treat this lawless little man well.

But where would have thought that Xue Chengjiao turned her head and begged Cui Ying for mercy.

The old lady's attitude is obvious, and she is clearly unwilling to investigate deeply, and it will be forgotten if the big thing is turned into a small matter, why is this not angry?

Xue Chengjiao saw that she had opened her words, so she simply moved to the kang beside her and sat down, leaning her head on the eldest lady's shoulder: "Aunt wants to punish Cui Ying, it is for me to give my head, I know this, but what can my aunt do with her?" At most, it's just grounding, do you push her into the lotus pond and drown? ”

She asked back, but Mrs. Runda made her speechless, so she said again: "I know that you must be unhappy if I want to say that you are living in Cui's house now, but this is the truth." I'm lonely, I came to the Cui family, I should have formed a good relationship and cultivated the good law, where is the truth of being evil with others? She grabbed Mrs. Runda's arm again and held it in her arms, "Don't look at me as small, but I understand these truths." Sparing Cui Ying this time, Mrs. Pu thanked me in her heart, and even the old lady was willing to look down on me, wouldn't it be more beneficial than really punishing Cui Ying? ”

Mrs. Runda calmed down and thought about it, and felt that what she said was good, so she stopped moving for a while.

When Cui Qiong saw this, she knew that most of the anger in her mother's heart had disappeared, so she said helpfully: "According to me, Cheng Jiao has a lot of ideas this time, and this idea is very right. Don't you know, just now when you sent the fourth aunt out, your grandmother specially instructed Cheng Jiao to go over to eat with her at night, saying that it was a new dish to serve in the evening, just to make up for Cheng Jiao's body. She paused slightly, with a faint smile on her face, "You think Chengjiao has lived in the past few months, when has grandmother ever asked her?" Aren't you willing to take her to heart right now? ”

After listening to her daughter's words, Mrs. Runda smiled gradually, straightened Xue Chengjiao, and looked at her for a while: "My son, it's hard for you to have such a calculation in your heart, and now that the old lady sees you in her eyes, this is more important than anything else." ”

Xue Chengjiao knew what her aunt meant.

Cui Bai, the grandfather of the Cui family's house, died early, and was less than forty when he died, leaving behind two sons and a daughter, all of whom were raised by the current old lady Zhang.

Soon after Cui Bai's death, Cui Biao in the second room took control of the Cui family on the grounds that "Cui Run is young and has no fame", and even took the family tree into his hands.

Later, Cui Run grew to twenty-two, won the first place in the palace examination, and entered the court, even Cui Hu was very competitive, plus the aunt and grandmother of the long house were old and married to the Hu family of Hejian Mansion, the long house gradually became hard, and the old lady took back the power from the second room little by little, and firmly controlled the power of the Cui family.

This old lady has been high-spirited and rigid all her life, and her two sons are one of the nine kings, and the other is in the position of the fifth grade, so although there are so many junior children in the four heads of the Cui family, there are few who may let her see it in her eyes, except for her own grandchildren in the long room, the rest are not taken seriously.

Now she thinks highly of herself, and in the eyes of her aunts, it is her great blessing.

Xue Chengjiao thought about it carefully, in fact, this is good.

Now that she has been reborn in a lifetime, although she has not thought for a long time, many things in the future will only be achieved by the old lady's nod, and it will definitely be beneficial for her to be able to please the old lady.

She grinned as she thought about it, "So you're still angry?" Do you still tell me to go to my uncle-in-law to receive the punishment? You should reward me for doing a good job this time. ”

Mrs. Runda made her words amused, thinking that this was still a child after all, and her true nature was revealed in a few words, and she was anxious to ask the elders to praise and appreciate.

There was a lot of laughter in the house, Poria opened the curtain again and came into the house, squatted and saluted, and listened to Mrs. Run's question about something, before replying: "Dangchun from the side of the big lady of the fourth room came over and said that he would send something to the girl for their wife." ”

Mrs. Runda waved her hand and told her to go: "You take the things next, say that Cheng Jiao is here with me, I will thank them for their wife's kindness, send her back, and call Cheng Jiao to thank her later." ”

Poria retreated after answering the yes, and returned here after a while, with an extra red box in her hand.

She held the box as the edge of the kang, put it down on a few points, and opened the box to show Mrs. Runda before she stepped aside and stood down.

Mrs. Runda looked into the box, and it was nothing more than some things that girls use for daily play.

There are a few yarn piles of flowers, as well as two pairs of ruby earrings, but the most rare thing is that there is a mutton fat jade turtle to match.

Mrs. Runda picked up the jade pendant from the box with a sigh, and compared it with the light, it was so transparent and warm: "What you said is good, Kang's heart is very grateful to you, such a good thing is not an ordinary thing for juniors to play with." ”

Xue Chengjiao is not a girl from a small family, she only glanced at Mrs. Runda's hand, and knew that the jade pendant was a good thing, and she was a little uneasy in her heart, and asked in a tight voice: "This jade pendant is so valuable, or ...... Send it back, right? Mrs. Pu gave me something, these flowers and earrings are enough, how can such a jade pendant be easy to receive. ”

How do you know that Mrs. Runda shook her head with a smile, pulled her, and reached out to hang the jade pendant on her waist to say goodbye: "The elder didn't dare to give it away, since she sent it over, it was her heart, what can't be accepted?" What kind of good things, don't you have them? As he spoke, he patted the back of her hand, "Just bring it, line your clothes today, and ask Wei Shu to follow you and go to the fourth room, the rules must be complete, thank her." Go ahead. ”

Xue Chengjiao still wanted to say something, but when she saw Mrs. Run's firm attitude, she closed her voice, got up and said goodbye, went to the east across the courtyard to call Wei Shu, tidied up her appearance again, and took her to the fourth room.

As soon as she got out of the house, Cui Qiong asked Mrs. Runda: "Mother, I saw the fourth aunt bring that jade pendant before, and I still like it when I hear her say it, like a dowry from my mother's family." You let Cheng Jiao accept it like this, is it appropriate? I also think it's too expensive. ”

Mrs. Runda sighed and shook her head to look at her daughter: "You know what, she is the right thing to do." Jiaojiao helped Cui Ying this time, regardless of her previous suspicions, she should have given a thank you gift, but she just borrowed the reputation of giving away fun. Who is Jiaojiao? She asked rhetorically, and then continued, "You just see that the Xue family is now empty, but her father is the emperor's posthumous Marquis Zhenlie." Our Gao family has produced three ministers, and she is my niece, and not everyone can easily underestimate her. Now that she lives in Cui's house, your grandmother sees her in her eyes again, your fourth aunt wants to give her something, but the ordinary plaything is only afraid that it is too light, and when she returns home to find this jade pendant, it is she who values Jiaojiao and returns the thing? I said, what kind of good things, Jiaojiao doesn't have it? No matter how valuable she is, Jiaojiao dares to accept it, and she deserves it, understand? ”

Cui Qiong's heart was greatly shocked, she pursed her lips and was silent, and nodded after a long time, understanding her mother's true intentions.

There are many Cui families, Cheng Jiao comes alone, and she lives for a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that someone will calculate her and look down on her with bad intentions, rather than let Cheng Jiao be wronged in the future, it is better to take the opportunity to let people outside see Cheng Jiao's identity clearly, even the wife of the fourth room values her so much, who will come up and step on her?

Thinking about it, she got up and said goodbye to Mrs. Run: "Then I'll accompany Cheng Jiao, the first time she went to the fourth room, she was unhappy with Cui Ying, don't make Cui Ying stumble." ”

Mrs. Runda hummed and agreed, and asked Poria to send her out and said no more.
