Chapter 34

It turned out that although Yizhi went back to Mrs. Tai's room early that day, the old lady still knew that her two sisters had been together the night before and talked for half a night.

How dare Cai Wei tell the truth, but the old man was a little troubled when he heard it, so he still said the same thing Yizhi said in front of the old lady before. No matter how Mrs. Tai asked her, she only replied like this, and said that Yizhi told her to serve the old lady with filial piety, and there was nothing else.

Seeing that she refused to tell the truth, Mrs. Tai was displeased, so she had to let her go. She is an old man, not only can she see that Yizhi's expression is wrong, but she can vaguely see from her granddaughter's demeanor that she is still a girl, not like that kind of newlywed woman, she knows that this granddaughter who grew up in front of her since she was a child is not happy after marriage.

Originally, she was dissatisfied with this marriage, but at this time, seeing that her granddaughter was having a difficult time, she couldn't help but feel troubled and worried, so she found a reason and scolded the fourth master again. I don't want to think that a few days later, it was reported that the fifth master was somehow ginseng, and he was demoted from the sixth grade of the business to the eighth grade, and he was even more depressed, and since then he has been lazy to eat, and he has been sick in a few days.

Cai Wei delivered medicine in front of Mrs. Tai's bed day and night, serving with heart. On this day, she had just waited for Mrs. Tai to use half a bowl of lotus seed soup, when she suddenly saw the fourth master walking in with the eldest master, the fifth master and several wives, followed by a Taoist aunt.

The eldest lady Wang said to Cai Wei: "Cousin, go down and rest first!" We invited a fairy girl to talk to the old lady. ”

Seeing them so solemn, Cai Wei didn't know what to do, although she was vaguely uneasy in her heart, she had to withdraw first and go back to her west wing. Thinking back to the different smile on the eldest lady's face when she looked at her, my heart became more and more uneasy.

After about half an hour, I suddenly heard a report from the little girl outside the window: "The second wife and the fourth wife have come to see the girl!" ”

Cai Wei hurriedly came out, but saw that the second wife had a hidden anger on her face, but the fourth wife had a sad face, and there were more than a dozen mothers-in-law and maids behind her, so her heart sank a little more. At that moment, he smiled and took the two uncles into the house, and while inviting them to the table for tea, he said, "Thank you two aunts for coming to see me, but I don't know what to order?" ”

The fourth wife sighed first, and she couldn't say anything, this niece had helped her, but now that she was in trouble, she could only watch as an aunt and couldn't help at all.

The second wife said: "Good boy, thanks to you waiting by the old lady's side these days, you are very filial everywhere, but the woman they invited said that Mrs. Tai's illness was overcome by you, so she became like this." said that you are born with a bad spirit in your life, not only the father and the mother, but also the wife and the wife, which are mutually restrictive! Since you lived in Xuhui Hall, Mrs. Tai has been sick one after another, and now as long as you move out to live elsewhere, Mrs. Tai's illness will naturally be cured. ”

Mama Guo, who was standing on the side, was anxious when she heard this, this was obviously to kick them out of Xuhui Hall, but where to live?

Mama Du has seen a lot in the deep palace, and as soon as she hears it, she knows what this so-called Chong Kezhi is about, but her expression remains the same, just looking at how Cai Wei responds.

Seeing that Cai Wei was just hanging her head and saying nothing, the fourth lady felt pity in her heart, so she took her hand and said, "Good boy, originally Mrs. Tai ordered me to tell you, who made me still the wife in charge?" But I really can't say these words, but thank my second sister-in-law for saying it for me. We all know that you are wronged, but that Hao Daopo is conclusive, she has a nose and eyes, she often comes to our house to walk around, and Mrs. Tai also believes her, so she nodded and ordered you to move out first. This--alas-! ”

Cai Wei didn't believe in Chong Kezhi, the first time she lived in this mansion, some servants talked behind her back, saying that she was a brother and a mother. Later, she returned to her father for only three years, and when she saw that her father was seriously ill, she cried and asked her father if he could solve it. I didn't want her father to laugh and said: "The length of a person's life span is determined by nature, how can it be related to another person's life?" That's just nonsense, made up to deceive people. ”

In her heart, she was full of reverence for her father, and she believed in his father's words, and did not believe such nonsense. But she also understood that she couldn't live in the west wing of this Xuhui Hall anymore, so she raised her head and said with a smile: "My niece knows that my two aunts have always treated me very well, and she really feels sorry for me." Since Hao Daopo said so, as a junior, I should be a foreign grandmother's body. I just don't know where I want to move? ”

The second wife and the fourth wife glanced at each other, and their faces were a little helpless. The second wife said: "Originally, I wanted you to live in the inner courtyard of our second room, just to be a companion with Hui'er and Sister Fen, but I didn't think that the Taoist woman said that you have too much evil qi on your body, Mrs. Tai is sick and weak at this time, although she has moved out, it is still impossible to get close." In the end, the courtyard of Hefu was inspected, and there was only one courtyard that was far enough away and could live in it, and that was the Qiutang Courtyard, a small courtyard in the northwest corner where your second aunt lived. Your cousin Wu moved outside to live in the study a few years ago, and only your aunt and two cousins and a few rooms of servants and maids lived in that courtyard, but it was also clean. ”

Caiwei of Qiutang Courtyard has been there, her second aunt lives in the three main rooms of the inner courtyard, her cousin Wu Wan lives in the east wing, and her cousin Wu Juan lives in the west wing. Then he asked, "Does the second aunt know that I am going to move here?" ”

The fourth lady nodded, "Your eldest aunt told her in the past, since it is the old lady's meaning, I think she will not disagree, but she is going to wronged you, then Hao Daopo said that the sooner you move out, the better, so Mrs. Tai ordered us-"

I didn't want Cai Wei to smile and said: "It's bothering that the two aunts brought someone to help us move things, otherwise I only have these few girls here, and I have to worry about how to move over!" ”

When the second wife saw the smile on her face, her heart was sour, and she sighed, took her in her arms, and comforted: "Good boy, you go to live with your second aunt first, if there is any inconvenience, just order your girl to come and tell me, and I will often go over there to see you." You are a smart child, and your aunt only tells you one sentence now, which is to overcome Mrs. Tai's words, let's ignore it for the time being, only that Taoist woman said that you are hard to beat your parents and other nonsense, you must not go to your heart, if you only blindly blame yourself and complain about yourself, you will damage your own body. ”

There was a complete sense of love in these words, Cai Wei's eyes were hot when she heard it, and she hurriedly thanked her: "Thank you aunt for your love, I listen to my aunt, no matter what others say, I have to live my life better, and I will no longer seek sorrow and hatred, and I will embarrass myself." ”

Seeing this, Mama Du couldn't help but be secretly grateful to the second wife, although Master Zhou had already explained his own girl in this matter, but at that time, how could she have these powerful words like wind and frost and sword, and it was a great comfort to be able to get such a personal advice from an elder at this time.

At that moment, the two wives commanded a group of mothers-in-law and maids to help Cai Wei and them pack all kinds of things one by one, and then transport them to Qiutang Courtyard. Fortunately, when Cai Wei came to this mansion the year before last, because of the long distance, she didn't bring many things, and she lived in this mansion for nearly two years, and she only added a few clothes and hairpins and some daily things, so she moved all of them when it was time to hold the lamp.

The second wife and the fourth wife personally sent her to Qiutang Courtyard, and the second aunt's wife, Zhao Mingxiang, led the concubine Wu Juan to welcome them in and said: "Two brothers and sisters, don't worry, my niece lives with me, I will never wronged her, originally I wanted to move Sister Juan to live with her sister, and vacate the west wing room for my niece to live." I don't want Sister Wan to be angry these days, and she is sick, so it is not appropriate to move Sister Juan in, I am afraid that she will also be sick. Therefore, I have to grieve my niece's daughter to live in Sister Juan's house first, and I have asked her to vacate a room for you. ”

Although the second aunt said this beautifully, the second aunt heard it as soon as she heard it, and she was afraid that the second aunt didn't plan to let Sister Wei live alone in a side room, so she and Sister Juan would always be crowded together. Although she was dissatisfied with this, she was not good at saying anything, firstly, she was no longer the housekeeper's wife at this time, and secondly, this Qiutang Courtyard had already lived in the second aunt's family for so many years, and it was always difficult to point fingers at other people's arrangements, so she had to look at Cai Wei with pity and helplessness.

I didn't want to, but I heard Cai Wei smile and said: "Thank you aunt for your kindness, you took me to live here, it's all for me, my aunt and sisters have worked hard for a long time, and I also ask my niece to worship!" He bowed and said, "When I was in the old lady's courtyard, I lived with Sister Zhi, and when she left the pavilion in October last year, I was the only one to live in that house, so I often felt lonely, and I always looked forward to living with which sister I could live with, and I would have a companion." Fortunately, my aunt took me here, no matter which sister I live with, it is all right, but if I let my niece live alone in a private room, it is absolutely unacceptable, my niece is now afraid of living alone, I just want to have a sister live with, and it is lively! ”

Seeing Cai Wei's answer so appropriate, the second wife was both relieved, but even more sad, if her parents were still alive, she didn't know how pampered she was at this time, and she was pampered. Because he couldn't bear to stay any longer, he instructed her a few more words and left with the fourth wife.

Aunt Zhao said to Cai Wei: "You have been busy all day today, and when dinner is delivered, I will order someone to send it to your room, so that Sister Juan can accompany you to use it, and you two will be more comfortable." ”

Cai Wei hurriedly said: "My niece came over the first day, how can I not wait for my aunt to eat?" ”

Her aunt smiled and said, "We are all close relatives, where do we still use these false gifts, but I am worried about your sister's illness and want to go to her room to accompany her." Wait for tomorrow, let's have breakfast together. ”

After the meal, Cai Wei took out a few kinds of needlework that she had prepared on weekdays, and gave it to Wu Juan: "Good sister, I'm really sorry, because I came, I took up half of your house, and added a lot of inconvenience to my sister, and I ask my sister to bear with me!" "It's thanks to Yizhi that before she got married, she insisted on pulling her to spar with all kinds of female celebrities, and now she gives out these needles and threads, which can be quite good.

That Wu Juan is only nine years old this year, she is still young, and she is a concubine. Her mother was the second aunt's wife's maid, and later the second aunt was accepted as an aunt, only gave birth to her one daughter, and died when she was three years old.

Therefore, although the second aunt's wife treats her as a concubine, she is not as good as her own sons and daughters. Her nurse often reminded her that she was attached to her wife, so she naturally had to be cautious everywhere, so that she could be filial to her mother, brothers and sisters, so that she could continue to stay in this house. Therefore, she has developed a very docile and obedient temperament since she was a child, and she is the most good-natured, seeing Cai Wei apologize to her, she blushed and said: "Cousin, don't say that, I don't think there is any inconvenience, but like my cousin, I am happy to have a sister to accompany and teach me, and please don't see my sister outside!" ”

The cousins said a few more words, and because they were tired for a long time, they went back to their rooms to rest early. Because there is no extra house in Qiutang Courtyard, there is only one south ear room in the west wing for Cai Wei's grandmothers and maids to live. There would be eight people living in such a small room, so Mama Du lived in the same room as Cai Wei, and called Gan Tang to come over and sleep all night.

Gan Tang had been holding back in his heart for a long time, and when he saw that there was finally no outsider in front of him at this time, he could say a few private words, so he asked, "Shouldn't this person be sick and ask for a doctor?" Why did you invite a witch to come and tell such a nonsense, and even my girl didn't believe it, so she kicked us out for no reason? I don't know who is making trouble behind the scenes, so let's get in the way of their eyes? ”

Cai Wei sat in front of the mirror and combed her hair, and said lightly: "Who else can there be, Zuo is just their group!" ”
