Wei Yan frowned and said, "It's a coincidence, or ...... Father, he ......? Wei Yan didn't dare to think about it anymore, so he changed the subject and asked, "Why doesn't his father care so much?" Didn't you say that two days ago you saw his father gambling with others? ”

"Miss, the slave maid inquired about this, and it turned out that ......" Ruyue was a little embarrassed, her face turned red, and she couldn't continue. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"What can't you say to me?" Wei Yan glanced at her strangely.

"Miss, the eldest son of Mrs. Ji, it seems that he was not born with the housekeeper, it is said that when he was sixteen or seventeen years old, he worked as a maid in a family next to him, and he had some heads and tails with the master, and was sold by the heroine. Later, she married the manager and gave birth to this son in less than six months. At that time, the manager was just the old lady's entourage, and he took the old lady's path and brought Mrs. Ji into our house to do things. When Mrs. Xian married in, Mrs. Ji was in charge of the courtyard of the lord and his wife, not only the little girls who called, but even the key to the treasury was also held by her. ……”

Wei Yan carefully recalled the mother-in-law who served in her mother's courtyard in the past: At that time, Mrs. Ji was only relatively plump, not as fat as in the past two years, with white skin, eyebrows and eyes, and love to wear bright clothes, but she was a woman with a lot of color.

Later, his mother died, Cui Shi entered the door, and arranged Ji Pozi to take care of things in Wei Yan's yard, Ji Pozi gradually exposed her lazy and greedy nature, and gradually ate into a fat and greasy woman.

Thinking about Mrs. Ji's attitude towards Wei Dongkang again, would an ordinary servant woman dare to cry in front of the hostess, holding the male master's legs? Over the years, Wei Dongkang has rarely come to the backyard, and he is relatively cold to his two aunts, which makes people think that he should be a person who is very restrained in women. If he really had something unclear with Ji Pozi, as his pillow person, would his mother have already found out? 's mother died of depression, is it not because of Aunt Cai, but because of this mother-in-law? Mrs. Ji relied on her favor, and deliberately showed off in front of her mother, and her mother could only swallow her anger?

Thinking of this, Wei Yan felt nauseous. No matter how beautiful Ji Pozi was when she was young, what people remember now is her fat and clumsy body and fierce face. If the father is willing to accept even such a person......

Wei Yan didn't dare to think about it. If all this is really as she thinks, it is too outrageous!

She shook her head, shook off the mess, walked to the table, picked up her pen and wrote a letter. Handing the letter to Ruyue, she instructed: "You go again, find a reliable post house, and send my letter to the Tang family in Runan." Don't let anyone see it. ”

Ruyue just didn't understand: "Miss, since Mrs. Tang left, you ignored Miss, why did you still write a letter?" What exactly does Miss want to do? ”

Wei Yan sighed: "Ruyue, I hope I am wrong." But I can't do nothing! Ruyue, you must stand with me and accompany me to find out the truth. ”

The letter was sent for more than a month, and it was like a stone sinking into the sea. Wei Yan gradually became discouraged. At this time, good news came from Biyun Pavilion that Aunt Qin was three months pregnant.

Cui personally went to the west tower of Biyun Pavilion to visit, instructed a few words, and went out, Aunt Ping grabbed Cui Shi and pouted: "She has only been in the door for two months, but she is already three months pregnant, madam, the master is hiding from us, and I have had dealings with her early!" ”

Cui Shi thought about something else: "She met the master last year, but she entered the door this year, is it because she is pregnant and she is not at ease outside, so she took it in?" This woman is young and has a wealthy family, which is different from ordinary concubines. Now, if she asks for a man, will I have to give her the position of lady in the future? ”

Cui's face was not revealed, and he smiled: "Aunt Qin has the flesh and blood of the master, which is a great thing, what are you doing with these small sections?" Listen, now she needs to recuperate, she can't be bothered, you cheer up your spirits, and stare at the people around you, but if there is any mistake, you will be the first to get out of it! I'm talking to you about heart-wrenching words, do you understand? ”

Aunt Ping had no choice but to respond.

Lian'er helped Aunt Cai, walked over head-on, and saluted Cui's family. Cui Shi nodded, which was considered a courtesy.

Aunt Cai smiled unabated, said hello to Aunt Ping, and went upstairs to see Aunt Cai.

In the evening, Wei Dongkang went out to feast and returned, and when it was past the end of the day, he ordered Sixi to be placed in the blue yarn cupboard in the study, but Cui came with a smile. Speaking of Aunt Qin's very good appetite, Dr. Qin also said that the fetus was very healthy, Wei Dongkang smiled and said to his wife: "With you at home, naturally everything is not chaotic." It's just that your body is still weak, and you have to recuperate well, nothing more than tiredness. ”

Cui Shi smiled: "These are all things that a concubine should do, the master is busy with affairs, and he can't still ask the master to the heart of the family!" It's just that there is one more thing about the concubine, and I have to ask the master's opinion. Now that Sister Qin is pregnant and lives on the second floor of the West Building, it is inconvenient to go up and down, is it inconvenient to ask Sister Ping to change with her? ”

Wei Dongkang said: "The Ping family lives upstairs, and the sound of walking around will inevitably disturb her. In this way, the Ping family was asked to live in the Jiang Niang house in the east building. Clean up a yard for Jiang Niangshan and come out. Over the years, she has been a young lady, living with her aunts, and she used to be fine, but now she still wants to say that she is married, and it is not good to be known. ”

Cui Shi said: "Yes, the master is thoughtful, and the concubine will go and order." "But I secretly wondered in my heart, the old man never went to Aunt Cai's house, and he ignored Jiang Niang, what happened now, but I cared about this concubine?

Coming out of the study, Cui Shi called Ziyuan and said in a low voice: "Go, ask Sixi about it, have Wei Jiang or Aunt Cai come to the study recently?" ”

When Ziyuan returned, Cui had already removed his makeup and hair, wore soft smoke and bed clothes, and sat on the kang to read the account book. Ziyuan said: "Madam, Sixi's little thief is very tight-mouthed, and he can't ask anything." The slave and maid talked to the little girl who was sweeping outside, and it seemed that Lian'er next to Aunt Cai had found Sixi and was scolded by Sixi. Besides, the eldest lady went to the master's study and pleaded for the second lady, and then for some reason, she angered the master, not only drove the eldest lady away, but even threw out the book in anger. ”

Cui Shi smiled when he heard this: "Cai's is really not simple. There is no red around her, and there is such a loyal Lian'er again......"

She said again: "Wei Yan went to intercede for others? It's ridiculous! Without the crown prince doting on her, what is she? The lord has long lost patience with her! A daughter who can't bring the highest glory to the family, is she still worthy of being spoiled like an eyeball? ”

Ziyuan said: "No wonder the eldest lady has been confined in the room and rarely comes out recently, I think it is to make the master unhappy and be grounded!" Or can Madame see clearly! ”

Cui Shi smiled bitterly: "I naturally understand. No one knows better than I do. How did he treat me when I was pregnant? Now, how? I hope Qin Wanhua is blessed to have a son, otherwise, it will be no different from that Aunt Cai and me, after all, it will only be an abandoned end! ”

"Madam, why do you say such frustrating words?" Zi Yuan persuaded, "You are the lady of the main house, the head of the house, how can you be like those lowly aunts?" The lord still respects and loves his wife the same, and when he heard that Mrs. Ji's slave annoyed him, the lord personally went to kill her. Now everyone in the house knows that the lord has a deep affection for his wife. Those aunts, how can they compare with you? ”

Cui Shi sighed: "Ziyuan, you don't have to persuade me, I know better than anyone else." Without ****, I can still live. But without the seat of the main room, I can only die! I am a married daughter, and I am not taken seriously, and my mother's family will not stand up for me. Shion, would you like to help me? ”

Ziyuan was taken aback and said in a panic: "Madam...... Do you want to ......"

Cui Shi nodded: "The Qin family is pregnant, and Aunt Ping is not favored." I hurt my body, and within a few years, there was no hope of conceiving. Now, there is no one around the master who can serve, and the only one I can trust is you! ”
