The second wife of the Meng family came for an afternoon and had not yet had dinner.

She herself was not hungry, but the maids and mothers-in-law around her were hungry.

What came with me today was not the mother Gong the day before yesterday, nor the two maids.

"This second wife really thinks of me." Teng Yuanniang thought.

The more this is the case, the more vigilant Teng Yuanniang becomes.

She is a small craftsman, what is it worth the Meng family to bother so much?

When Teng Yuanniang came back, Mrs. Teng wanted to buy food, but was stopped by Mrs. Meng.

"It's not early, the girl is tired all day, and I don't bother too much, just say a few words and go back." Second Mrs. Meng smiled.

Mrs. Meng did not plan to eat at Teng's house.

Teng Yuanniang was also not polite, and led Mrs. Meng to the west wing and talked to her alone.

The maid and the mother-in-law were all outside the door.

Teng Yuanniang's mother and grandmother were a little worried, afraid that Teng Yuanniang would suffer, and they all looked at this side worriedly.

They even wanted to invite Lu Luo.

Teng Yuanniang's sister boiled tea and brought it in, and refilled a cup of tea for Mrs. Meng.

After resuming the tea, the little girl stood next to her and didn't leave, wanting to give her sister courage.

This little warmth between the sisters, Mrs. Meng Er couldn't understand it, she only felt that the children of the Teng family were uneducated and didn't know how to avoid it.

She coughed.

Teng Yuanniang said to her sister: "Go out to eat, let grandmother cook, don't be hungry for you." ”

The little girl nodded, and then went out.

"Miss Teng has worked hard, day and night." Mrs. Meng Er was soft and gentle, and her words were particularly concerned.

Teng Yuanniang has five days of rest every month. The days she arranged by herself.

Lu Luo is equivalent to completely handing over the dyeing workshop to her, and in the past year, Lu Luo knows the dyeing workshop, but he never interferes.

When Teng Yuanniang was resting, she always thought about the dyeing workshop in her heart, but she didn't have any thoughts, so she went every day, even if she didn't dye the cloth, she had to try to mix some dyes.

She's not tired, it's just a habit.

She thinks of the dyehouse as her second home. It gives her a sense of accomplishment and belonging.

"It's fine." Teng Yuanniang said. I was reluctant to talk to Mrs. Meng about this matter in depth.

didn't think about it, but Mrs. Meng made a big fuss.

"Even if it's a donkey that pulls a mill, stop and drink saliva. I heard that the girl had not had a half-day off for several months, and it was really hard. Second Mrs. Meng sighed. It's very distressing.

Teng Yuanniang thought to herself: It's time to sow discord. She remained silent. Said: "I've been busy lately. Masters are like this. ”

"Yes, the master of the field has no time to stop when he is busy, and a dyeing workshop depends on the girl. The girl is so young. It's really admirable. Mrs. Meng said.

After a pause, Second Mrs. Meng said again: "However, no matter how busy you are, you can't treat people as animals, the girl looks thin." ”

It's just ridiculous.

Teng Yuanniang used to be very thin and pale, but now she eats well, is busy and more active, has grown flesh on her body, and her complexion is much better than before.

Not to mention her grandmother and mother, even the neighbors also said that Teng Yuanniang looked more energetic.

"No one calls me like an animal." Teng Yuanniang's face fell, and she was very unhappy.

Mrs. Meng didn't see it, she only regarded Teng Yuanniang as polite, and continued to praise her: "The girl is kind-hearted, even if she is wronged, she must maintain the old owner, this magnanimity is the inheritance of the ancestors, and the Teng family has a good way to teach her son." ”

She praised Teng Yuanniang, the ancestors of the Teng family, and Teng Yuanniang's grandmother and mother.

A bucket of **** is poured down, and anyone who listens to it will be fluttering, not to mention that Teng Yuanniang is just a girl?

Teng Yuanniang also heard that Mrs. Meng said that Lu Luo was the "old owner", and it seemed that it was inevitable to poach Teng Yuanniang.

"Since I am so sure, I'm afraid that things are not so simple, and there must be a way to go." Teng Yuanniang thought of this, and the righteous words in her heart were suppressed.

She didn't continue to speak as fast as she could.

She wanted to see what the Meng family was up to.

Teng Yuanniang remained silent, waiting for Second Mrs. Meng to speak.

"I feel sorry for you, girl, and I am wronged for you." Seeing that Teng Yuanniang was silent, Second Mrs. Meng thought that she had said what she was thinking, and Teng Yuanniang was sad, so she smiled and said, "So I brought some ginseng bird's nest today to make up for the girl's body." ”

Her maid came with a gift.

Teng Yuanniang opened her mouth and said, "It's too expensive, I can't afford it!" ”

"If you can afford it, you can afford it!" Mrs. Meng said with a smile, "The girl is a delicate girl's family, so she needs to be nourished!" ”

Seeing that it was completely dark, the night shrouded the small courtyard of the Teng family.

Second Mrs. Meng saw that today's goal was achieved, and she now buried a thorn in Teng Yuanniang's heart, making Teng Yuanniang dissatisfied with the current situation, and then slowly trying to figure it out.

She dropped the gift, Teng Yuanniang actually just pretended to excuse herself and accepted it, which made Mrs. Meng feel that Teng Yuanniang was shallow and easy to buy.

Mrs. Meng was more satisfied.

"Miss Teng, I'll go back first." Mrs. Meng said with a smile, "Today, firstly, I came to visit, and secondly, I came to make amends to the girl last time when the house slave spoke inappropriately." ”

She also found a proper excuse for her intention.

Teng Yuanniang said: "You are too polite. ”

Mrs. Meng left satisfied.

After getting into the carriage, the maid of her cronies asked Mrs. Meng, "Madam, what do you think?" ”

"A little girl from a poor background, give more sweetness, and you don't know the southeast and northwest." Second Mrs. Meng smiled.

This is the same as the Meng family expected.

And the Teng family saw what Mrs. Meng left behind, and Mrs. Teng and Mrs. Teng were very worried.

"Yuan Niang, you said that you can't promise anything, how can you accept the Meng family's gift now?" Mrs. Teng was anxious, "I will be entangled in the future." ”

"It's empirical evidence." Teng Yuanniang said, "The Meng family wants to win over my evidence. ”

"What?" Mrs. Teng didn't understand.

Mrs. Teng understood.

"Yes, we have to be on guard everywhere, this matter is not over yet." Mrs. Teng was very shrewd and thought of a place with her granddaughter.

After accepting the Meng family's things, Second Mrs. Meng will relax her vigilance, and it is estimated that she will soon take the next step.

In this way, Teng Yuanniang took the lead.

If the first step of the Meng family has not been smooth, it is estimated that the method will also be changed, and Teng Yuanniang will not know when the other party will make another move, and it will be strange to prevent thieves for a thousand days.

Now, it's better to take the initiative to lure them into action.

"Why don't I understand?" Mrs. Teng wondered.

Teng Yuanniang smiled.

Mrs. Teng also knew it.

These gifts, Teng Yuanniang handed them to Mrs. Teng, put them away carefully, don't lose them.

"Grandmother, what the hell did you say the Meng family was doing, why did the second wife come to me?" Teng Yuanniang asked the biggest question in her heart, "Does the Meng family want to deal with me, or do you want to deal with the owner?" Or is it just trying to poach me? ”

"I guess the Meng family covets your craft, but it's not against you girls." Mrs. Teng said.
