Chapter 267: Thousands of Miles Away
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is August 13, but two days, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and thousands of families are reunited. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The atmosphere of the festival in Huzhou City has become more and more intense, the third wife has already been busy arranging things, and Lanxi is also caught learning housework, and every day is busy but fulfilling.
Different from the relaxation and eagerness in the Lan Mansion in Huzhou City, in the Lan Mansion in Chaoyangfang, the capital thousands of miles away, the atmosphere is not so good.
"Yo! What's the matter, old lady? It's not that the third master and the third wife sent someone to send a courtesy, this is a happy thing, why did your old man shed tears, isn't it the third master, what's wrong with them? The courtyard where Mrs. Lan's widow lives is the same as the old house, which is located on the right side of the main courtyard, with green bamboos and forests, full of cold and blue, and is called "Fushoutang".
Mrs. Lan is not the kind of difficult elders, the juniors often come to Chenghuan's knees, and the girls around her can also laugh and laugh, Fushoutang is always happy in the past, but today's atmosphere is a little solemn. In the upper room, where the needle was quiet and audible, such a sentence suddenly sounded, and everyone present turned around and looked at the door. Mrs. Lan, who was dressed luxuriously, was followed by a young woman dressed as a woman, a girl dressed as a girl, and a group of maids and servants into the hall.
Mrs. Lan, who was bending down in front of Mrs. Lan and whispering comfort, glanced back fiercely when she heard this, but she was busy admonishing, "Old lady don't be like this, although she has suffered some crimes, she is always safe." And the daughter-in-law heard the old man say that the third brother has made a great contribution this time, and the long live lord naturally knows in his heart, seeing that the person is about to come back, when the time comes, every day in front of the old lady, the old lady will have nothing to worry about. ”
"This heart always has to be carried, worrying about this, and that, worrying about this, and that, it's not worry-free." Mrs. Lan imprinted the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and stopped tears, but her eyes were still red, but she didn't turn around to look at Mrs. Lan from beginning to end.
Second Mrs. Lan didn't know if she hadn't noticed it, or if she was used to it, she still smiled and saluted first, "It's all because my daughter-in-law's mouth can't speak, and I am also worried about the third master and the third wife in my heart, but this mouth is stupid and doesn't speak well, but it makes the old lady feel uncomfortable, and it's all the daughter-in-law's fault." ”
"The old lady is worried about the third uncle and them, but I heard from my father that the third uncle will return to Beijing soon, and I am afraid that I will be promoted again, so the old lady can rest assured." The young woman behind Second Mrs. Lan suddenly laughed.
Old Mrs. Lan straightened up, "Brother Zhi's daughter-in-law went back to her parents' house yesterday?" ”
The young woman was none other than the second grandmother of the house, Lan Zhi, who was hired by the third media two years ago, and the second grandmother who carried a sedan chair to marry the door, and the daughter-in-law of the second Mrs. Lan, Zhou. Zhou Shi heard Mrs. Lan's question, and said with a slight smile, "Yesterday, my mother was a little sick, so I went to take a look, and when my father returned from the next dynasty, I heard him say a few words casually......"
The words, when they are clicked, seem to contain a message that everyone knows. Mrs. Lan fell silent, and the corners of Grandma Lan's mouth curved upward, in her opinion, Mrs. Lan's silence was a reward for her, obviously, she brought back the message to please the old man. It is said that the youngest son, the eldest grandson, the top of the old lady's heart, the third master who Mrs. Lan is worried about, these days to the third master, and even the third girl who came out, is very important, these days, because of the big water in the south, it is very sad, Lan Grandma asked herself to be a clever person, naturally knows how to do what she likes.
Mrs. Lan was silent, but Mrs. Lan pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "I didn't know that the second grandmother and the in-laws had such a deep mother-daughter relationship." ”
The smile on Grandma Lan's face stiffened instantly, but Mrs. Lan's face changed, and she stepped forward and said, "What do you mean by this, sister-in-law?" ”
The corners of Mrs. Landa's mouth twitched, and she said, "What else does it mean?" Naturally, it is the meaning of praising the filial piety of our second grandmother. Our second grandmother is not only filial, but also a favored pearl in her mother's house, not only with the in-laws of the wife and daughter, but also the in-laws are a favorite daughter, and the court is actually used to gossip with the daughter, which is ...... I really don't know what to say. ”
As a result, the faces of Second Mrs. Lan and Second Grandma Lan became more and more ugly, however, in an instant, they were speechless.
Mrs. Lan had already covered her mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile, "However, I want to thank our in-laws after all, and I am thinking about our third master in my heart." Otherwise, he is a soldier in the military department, but this news is even better than our third grandmother's family. "This Zhou family was born in the military department's mansion, but it is a concubine, and this military department is in Beijing, and he has a lot of reputation for spoiling concubines and killing his wife, this concubine is naturally Zhou's biological mother, and the "mother" she just took out to be the reason for the beginning, naturally she can only be the wife of the Zhou mansion, so Mrs. Lan has just said this. At that time, I don't know how Mrs. Lan got on the line of the Zhou family, regardless of Mrs. Lan's opposition, she insisted on marrying such a one, Mrs. Lan insisted at first, and later saw that Lan Er's master had no opinion, and Mrs. Lan made up her mind and never looked back, so she also calmed down, thinking that the concubine was married to the eldest son of the concubine, and it was also a good match, and she couldn't resist the willingness of both parties, so she also wanted to let them go. It's just that after this incident, Mrs. Lan became more and more light-hearted to the people in the second room, and even the people in the fourth room, and occasionally sighed a few words.
And the third grandmother in Mrs. Landa's mouth is naturally Lan Hao's daughter-in-law who has not yet passed the door, but she is from Hanlin Mansion, and if you want to talk about holy will, she should naturally know a lot more than the squire of the military department.
The expressions of Mrs. Lan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were even more like overturned paint plates, wonderful, but they couldn't find words to refute them, and for a while, they were choked, and Lan Er's grandmother was tearful in the blink of an eye, biting her lips lightly, looking not very aggrieved, and Mrs. Lan Er's face turned red because of the anger in her heart.
Old Lady Lan saw that it was really unseemly, so she said lightly, "Okay, everyone will say a few words." As he spoke, he glanced at Mrs. Landa, who smiled slightly, lowered his head and lowered his eyes as if admitting his mistake, and the sharp edge that was still flamboyant was all retracted in an instant.
Mrs. Lan looked at Grandma Lan Er again, and said lightly, "Brother Zhi's daughter-in-law, go back and take care of your father, he will think about your third uncle, and our Lan family will inherit his affection." ”
Grandma Lan pulled the corners of her mouth, but her smile was not so real. (To be continued.) )
