Chapter 42: You Want to Turn the Sky Upside Down?
The mother-in-law still didn't say a word. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Then I said, "Now that you have spoken today, I have understood. In the future, I think we should be polite strangers, living under the same roof, it is inevitable that we will not meet, if we do, I will still salute you, if you don't like it, you can ignore me, ignore me. You are my mother-in-law after all, and I will respect you. ”
As soon as the words fell, my mother-in-law suddenly raised a finger at me and said sharply, "Kneel!" ”
Such a domineering momentum made my heart panic.
I admit that there is cowardice in this panic. I know that I am generally more peaceful, and that I will always be at a disadvantage when interacting with people with strong temperaments, because I will inevitably feel nervous and cowardly under the oppression of the opponent's invincible and domineering momentum. Besides, the person who gave orders to me was still my elder.
She is the owner of this house, and she has the right to do many things, and I may only have to bear it. Annoyed her, there may be unpredictable consequences.
In my last life, Yueying once told me that if Lan Sheng hadn't stopped me, my mother-in-law would have almost sunk me. And later, because of the lotus seed soup, she asked the housekeeper to send me to the government.
These things make people feel uneasy when they think about it.
That's why I'm scared and afraid.
I looked at her, unable to decide what to do.
The mother-in-law scolded again: "I'll let you kneel!" She raised her eyebrows, anger making her countenance look a little hideous.
To be honest, I don't understand why she's so angry. Does she never think from someone else's point of view? Why does she use her own will to decide everything?
I thought that I could still communicate well with her, and there was no deep hatred between us, so I really couldn't make such a big deal as her. Since it is possible to communicate, there is no need to lose such a temper.
How can I still be so calm and calm?
Is it because you are overly civilized, so you make others feel weak and deceitful?
Although I felt timid, I did not want to be humbled.
I sat down in my chair and didn't move, and replied, "I'm not kneeling, I don't feel like I need to kneel down to you right now." ”
She suddenly slapped the cases next to her with her hand, and the tea cups on the cases trembled with a muffled sound, and then said angrily: "You want to turn the sky upside down?!" ”
Hearing this, I couldn't help but laugh a little.
yes, I'm going to turn the sky upside down.
I sighed and said, "Why do you keep thinking about what you have to accomplish?" If you can't, you're going to be angry. Doesn't Buddhism pay attention to 'peace of mind'? Have you failed the Buddha's teachings? ”
"Bold!" The mother-in-law rebuked, "How can the Buddha allow you to blaspheme? You don't have the meekness of a woman's house! ”
Docile? If I were docile, wouldn't I let you pinch it as a soft persimmon? If I am meek, will I not let you tread on it?
Thinking of this, I replied politely: "You have misunderstood, meekness is not my virtue. And, I'm docile only when I'm supposed to be docile. ”
The mother-in-law frowned, squinted her eyes slightly, and said coldly: "Since you don't know what 'meekness' is, then I, as a mother-in-law, will teach you well." Then he raised his voice and said, "Mei Xiang, go and call the housekeeper!" Lock up this slut who has no woman's virtue, lock her up for two or three days, and see if she knows what 'woman's virtue' is! ”
Sure enough, if you don't agree, you will be rude.
Mei Xiang was ordered, her feet were fast, and she ran out with a swish. It is rare to have this opportunity to do things for her master, so she naturally has to be more diligent.
I panicked. People up and down the Lan Mansion listened to her except for Yueying, don't say that it's me, it's just to kill me, I guess I'm okay.
I stood up and walked to the door.
Before he could take a few steps, his mother-in-law shouted behind him, "Stop! Where are you going? ”
yes, where do I go? My mother's home is in Qiantang, and this is Haining. Am I going to sleep on the streets? My steps faltered.
The mother-in-law added behind her: "If you dare to take half a step out of the Blue Mansion today, then don't think about coming back!" ”
Is this what you mean to send me?
I'm not afraid of sleeping on the streets, and I'm not afraid of being sent back to my mother's house.
It's just, what should Lan Sheng do if I go? He will definitely be caught between me and my mother-in-law.
Lan Sheng: He doesn't know anything now. He didn't know that his mother-in-law wanted Yun Qing to marry into the Blue Mansion as his concubine.
What would he think if he knew? And what will be done?
I felt a little depressed in my heart. It was because I found myself unable to be truly free – I had to be bound by my loved ones, even though I realized that I might be hurt in the future.
The mood of depression made me feel dazed.
Although I understand that if I stay, I will definitely be locked up, isolated, and imprisoned by my mother-in-law, what kind of day it will be, but if I leave, the person who will clean up the mess will be Lan Sheng, and if my mother-in-law is determined not to let me enter the Lan family, what should Lan Sheng do while she is in the meantime? Moreover, there is also Lan Sheng in this family, and I don't want to leave like this.
Yes, and Lan Sheng.
The deterioration of his relationship with his mother-in-law is already a big problem for him, how can I just leave and make him even more difficult?
I can't, and I can't bear it.
The door was open, the mid-afternoon sun was still a little dazzling, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and the hot summer breeze swept the tip of my nose, making me feel a little breathless.
I didn't move half a step forward. A few figures hurriedly walked at the courtyard gate, the butler and Mei Xiang in front, followed by a few male servants.
There seems to be movement in the porch. Just as she was thinking, most of Yueying's figure leaned out of the door, and the look on her face was anxious and puzzled.
"Moon Shadow." I pursed my lips and smiled miserably, and reached out to her.
"Zhu Niang? What's wrong? She stepped into the room and took my hand.
"Are you afraid if someone wants to lock us up?" I asked her softly.
She looked at me for a while, her voice was warm, and she said, "Don't be afraid, as long as you are with Zhu Niang, Yueying is not afraid." ”
The housekeeper and Mei Xiang were already standing outside the door with the people.
The mother-in-law said: "The third lady has no respect for her elders and disobeys her elders, and I, as the head of the family, have decided to give her a small precept." Butler, you take the third lady to the wing next to the servant's house in the front yard, and let her think about it inside, and you must not let her out without my permission. After a pause, he continued: "Mei Xiang, you go and find out these two books and take them to the third lady to read." ”
I couldn't help but purse my lips. She's going to lock me up there? Such rooms are usually reserved for the servant of the visitor.
Yue Ying was straightforward and shouted, "You can't lock my lady there!" ”
