Chapter 31: Feed the White-Eyed Wolf Uncooked
The next morning, the maids blushed, did not dare to stay too much on the delicate body covered with bruises, quickly helped the master to put on clothes, and waited for the master to wash, and then rushed out, leaving only Chen's mother who was waiting for Mei's meal.

In the bright room of the main room, Mei's cheeks are flushed with a layer of ruddy, her eyes are moist and translucent, and her gestures are full of charming style, just like a gorgeous and complex hibiscus flower, which makes people can't help but pay attention to her.
"What time is it? Why didn't you tell me to get up earlier, but it's too late to say goodbye? ā
The gentle voice of the past also contained a hint of laziness and hustness, with a sense of contented satisfaction.
Mother Chen herself has changed from a dog's tail grass to a blooming morning glory, and naturally knows the reason why Mei's is more delicate than before, and sighed in her heart: After so many years, the relationship between Master Hou and Mrs. is still so good.
Thinking of this, the corners of Chen's mother grinned, and while serving Mei's meal, she made fun: "The old slave wanted to tell you to get up as usual, but the Hou Ye said that you were tired and told us not to wake you up, so that you can get up again when you have slept enough." As for the old lady, Hou Ye has already sent someone to sue the old lady, and the old lady replied that you should rest well if you are not feeling well, and you don't have to serve in front of her today, it can be seen how much Hou Ye cares for you. ā
Mei smiled contentedly, her husband returned home for three days, and also recuperated for three days, last night the two of them had a hearty battle, she couldn't hold on for a quarter of an hour to lose her armor, and finally couldn't stay up and beg for mercy and couldn't get the slightest relaxation, and the army was defeated like a mountain.
Recalling last night's battle, Mei's face revealed a shyness.
Hearing Chen's mother's words, Mei Shi used breakfast slowly, and after the meal was withdrawn, he said unhurriedly: "Since the old lady has exempted me from today's greeting, then we will go to the second lady to sit down later." ā
Chen's mother smiled and promised.
Mei asked the old lady, and then asked about Shu Yanyu, and learned that the nurse rolled her with eggs in the morning, and she couldn't see the swollen eyes, so she stayed in the old lady's courtyard to play with the old lady, so she didn't ask more.
When Mei took Chen's mother and the two big girls to Zhilan Garden in the second room, Jiang had already received the letter and stood in the upper room waiting for Mei.
The two concubines met and each saw each other, Jiang led Mei to the second room of the blue yarn cupboard, and waited for the girl to serve tea, and then politely asked: "I heard my mother say that my sister-in-law is not feeling well, but now she is better?" ā
Jiang is also a woman, how can she not see that Mei is not really uncomfortable, the ruddy face is more translucent than that of a young girl, how can there be signs of discomfort, but she is not interested in knowing about other people's beds, and because of upbringing, she asked politely.
Mei Shi raised a smile and shook his head slightly, "It's your eldest brother who made too much fuss, he only coughed a few times last night, and he will confess to his mother today." ā
Jiang Shi also smiled back and quipped: "It can be seen how nervous the eldest brother is and how much sister-in-law is." ā
Mei Shi didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he changed his head and chatted with Jiang about the emerging jewelry patterns in Beijing.
After the tea was continued, Mei Shi said his intention.
"Second brother and sister, sister-in-law has something to do, I want to trouble the second brother."
Jiang Shi has been curious about her intention since he saw Mei's, you must know that Mei will not come to Zhilan Garden when she has nothing to do, when she first marries in, she will often come to Zhilan Garden to chat with her, and when she gives birth to Shu Hongwen and is in charge of Hou's Mansion, the number of times she comes to Zhilan Garden will decrease.
No matter how you look at it today, she has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and when she heard that she had something to trouble her father-in-law, Jiang actually had a sense of steadiness that the stone had fallen to the ground.
Jiang's face was just the right amount of doubt and dissatisfaction, "Sister-in-law, the family doesn't talk to each other, what's not troublesome, you have something to do, just say it, but you can't be so polite." ā
Mei's smile deepened, and she whispered softly: "Yesterday, the Hou Ye said in the mansion that Hua Niang was going to take the entrance examination for the women's school of Tai Academy, and Yu'er went back last night, and she also clamored to be with her sister, saying that if her sister went to study, she would also follow her sister."
It was so loud and loud that it gave me a headache all night. I think that their sisters have not been separated for so many years, Hua Niang is lonely when she goes to school alone, and Yu'er has a deep relationship with Hua Niang's sisterhood, so I want to come to you today to ask, can the second brother also help Yu'er also register for a name? ā
Jiang Shi's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, so fast that people didn't notice it at all, she put the teacup on the table, looked at Mei's expectant eyes, thought for a while, and said, "Isn't Yu'er not yet ten years old?" ā
She remembered that the little girl's birthday had not yet come.
Mei raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled, "It's not bad for a few months, and the female students won't ask the ladies to report their birthdays one by one." ā
Since Mei said so, Jiang is not good at arguing with her on this issue, whether it will work or not, it is not their women's family that has the final say, and it must be agreed by the female student.
Jiang nodded slightly, and responded: "When Aru comes home, I will tell him what my sister-in-law means." ā
Seeing that Jiang was so good, the smile on Mei's face deepened a lot, and when he thought of the idea he had thought of last night, his smile slowly put away, and his expression was hesitant.
With such an obvious change, Jiang was not blind, so he had to ask: "Sister-in-law, but there are still troubles?" ā
Mei sighed, his face was full of anger and deep self-reproach,
"It's all my fault as a mother, Yu'er is so old, and I didn't pay attention to her studies before. It's because I love her too much, and I say that I want to play, and I can't compare to Hua Niang's perseverance, and I followed her sister and didn't learn half of her sister's efforts.
Her sister has the ability to apply for the women's school of Tai Academy, so she will have that little trick. She clamored to go to school with Hua Niang last night, so I said to her, let her stay at home, I invited Xixi home, let Xixi teach well, and then apply for the exam when she learned about the same. This child refuses to live or die, saying that I hinder her from having a deep relationship with Hua Niang. ā
Speaking of this, Mei paused, his face full of embarrassment, as if there was something unspeakable,
"Second brother and sister, I'm thinking, Yu'er's qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, maybe she can see it by painting, and the four books and five classics are not as good as Hua Niang, can the second brother let the examiner of the female school be accommodating? After all, the second uncle has also been in Tai Academy for so many years, isn't the examiner also his colleague? Among colleagues, isn't such a trivial matter a gesture? ā
With Mei's words, Jiang's mood was as changeable as the weather, first heard that Yu'er wanted to go to school with Hua Niang, and was happy for her progress, and when she heard Mei's words, it meant that Hua Niang only cared about herself, ignoring her sister, she felt unhappy, and when she heard the last thing that she wanted her husband to help go through the back door, she was almost full of anger.
If it weren't for years of self-cultivation, if someone else said this in front of her, she would be able to slap that person in person!
What a face!
Talking about going through the back door so lightly, it's also a "gesture"!
Husband and wife have slept together for many years, how can she not know her husband's temperament, upright, often admire those great Confucians who have left their names in history, and regard those predecessors as models for our generation, and always reflect on my body.
If you want him to go through the back door, you are insulting him and putting his character on the ground for so many years.
The children in the family, including Brother Xuan, as well as the two parents and children of their husband and wife, were all admitted to Tai College by their own skills, and the husband had never taken a hand, but this time Hua Niang wanted to enroll in school, and he just took advantage of the convenience to help sign up, and did nothing else.
The husband is not the kind of face-loving person, often saying that he can eat as much as he can, is there no good school except for Tai Academy, as the saying goes, the master leads the door, the cultivation depends on the individual, how you read, in the end, you still have to rely on yourself.
Who would have thought that people would be so misunderstood today.
It's still your sister-in-law who said this, and it's not your father-in-law's reputation to co-author, so you can spoil it casually, right?
Jiang silently recited the Buddhist scriptures in his heart, trying to calm his anger, with an apologetic smile on his face, "Sister-in-law, you know, the master is outside, he usually doesn't tell me, we are women's families, just husband and children at home, I really can't give you an accurate answer to this matter, I can only wait for the master to come back, I will tell him this, see what he says." ā
Mei Shi also smiled, "Yes, it's really inconvenient for us to ask about their men's affairs outside." Then thank you to the second brother and sister, there is still something in the courtyard, I won't bother much, and when I am free, we will go to the garden to enjoy the flowers and drink tea. ā
As he spoke, he stood up, Chen's mother put on Mei's cloak, and Jiang also got up to send Mei's out of the upper room.
Mei took people back to Zilan Courtyard, leaving only Chen's mother, and retreated the others, and when there were only two people left in the room, he slapped the table, and the teacups trembled with great force, making a crisp sound.
"Damn! actually pretending to be in front of me, it's really a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed! ā
