Twenty-first
It turned out that the person who came here was none other than Mama Wang, who was beside Mrs. Tai, and saw that she gave a blessing to everyone, and asked: "Why are the old ladies standing at the door of this ancestral hall, and it is strange that when I accompanied the old lady to walk through here, the old lady wondered how there was some noise here, and sent me to see it, but I never thought that it would be the old ladies and gentlemen." Oh, how can even the patriarch be invited! ”
The four old men on the fourth master's side looked at each other a little, but the fifth old man calmly asked, "Is my mother able to walk outside the courtyard?" ”
Mama Wang smiled and said: "Exactly, Mrs. Tai said that she felt that she had some strength in her body, and said that she had been lying in bed all day for so many days, and her bones were sore, and she saw that the sun did not come out today, and it was still cool, so she wanted to come out and walk around." I didn't want to pass by this close, but when I heard some movement here, I came over to take a look, and dared to ask the old man what he was doing. Why did the patriarch come here, and no one reported to Mrs. Tai? ”
How dare the fourth master tell the truth, so he had to go over indiscriminately, but fortunately, Mama Wang didn't ask any more, but said to the fourth wife: "Since I met my wife here, the old slave told my wife first, just so that I don't have to go back to find my wife." The old lady said that Sister Zhi had been taking care of her in front of the hospital bed day and night these days, and she was so tired that she even lost weight, so she wanted to ask the fourth lady to live in the upper room first to serve the decoction for the old lady, so that Sister Zhi could rest for a few days. Moreover, when the wife accompanies the old lady, she can also learn some ways of managing the family. It's just that I don't know if my uncle is willing to let the fourth wife live in our yard for a while? ”
"Uh-" The fourth old man hesitated slightly, he had planned to wait until he returned to his yard to see how he could clean up his wishful thinking after closing the door, and he would make her unable to survive or die, but his mother suddenly came to ask him for someone? Although he was a little unwilling in his heart, he didn't dare to refuse his mother's request, and it was easy for his mother's body to improve, but don't be angry anymore, so he nodded and said: "Naturally, it is willing, it should have been the daughter-in-law who served the mother-in-law." ”
Mama Wang said: "Since the uncle agreed, the old slave first invited his wife to go to Mrs. Tai, and Mrs. ordered the maids to clean up her daily necessities, and then move them to Mrs. Tai's yard at night." ”
Although the fourth wife made a big fuss, she was still a little scared in her heart, and she was really overjoyed to hear this happy news, so she hurriedly wiped her face with a handkerchief, and followed Mama Wang.
At that moment, the patriarch also said that he was going to visit Mrs. Hou, and the five old men and his wife went together. The eldest couple was originally watching the play, and it had nothing to do with them whether this thing was successful or not, but the eldest man pondered in his heart, and felt that this matter seemed a little strange today. The luck of these four wives is like divine help, first a fifth old man and a couple gave her courage, and finally an old lady next to Mrs. Tai came out to collect her hair, is it all a coincidence?
The fourth master and Aunt Liu were so angry that they were all in vain, and they even put in a bunch of things for the patriarch.
The two returned to the room and scolded for an hour. The fourth master just kept scolding the fourth wife, but Aunt Liu was more thoughtful than him, thinking of another person, "When the uncle sent someone to pick up the wife back, how did the eldest girl reply, didn't she say that she would persuade the wife to do this?" Why did she persuade this day and two nights, but the wife was so sharp and eloquent, she could speak well, I really don't know how the eldest girl persuaded her? ”
If you want to say that these four old men are in their lives, the most listenable thing is what Aunt Liu said, which is even more effective than his mother's words, at this time, when he heard his concubine say this, he immediately hated Yizhi in his heart, and said angrily: "I'll call this girl to ask her about it." ”
Aunt Liu hurriedly stopped him and said: "I'm just a reminder to my uncle, let's just know it in our hearts, if she is so anxious to get angry, then the girl is protected by an old lady, don't go back to touch the mold." It turned out that the slave family thought too simply, thinking that it was just a name, and the wife was generous, and there must be no disobedience, but I didn't expect the fifth master to run out to stir up the situation, and the slave stood on the side and saw it clearly, before the fifth master came, the wife was very obedient! ”
The fourth master also grinded his teeth and said: "I obviously instructed the people below not to leak the slightest rumor to go out, and I don't know where he heard the letter, but he actually ruined my good deeds at this juncture!" ”
Aunt Liu poured a cup of tea and held it in front of him, "It's not because the fifth wife is now in charge of the house, although she has not been in the house for the past two days, but it is not easy to find out some news from our side, uncle, don't underestimate the right to give back, according to me, let's find a way to quickly get the right of the housekeeper back from the fifth room." One is to save five rooms and use this right to make us bad, and the other is that now the accounts outside are in the hands of the uncle, if there is another account book in the inner courtyard, are you afraid that you can't save a piece of furniture for our four rooms from here? Hearing this, the fourth master thought it was true, and praised him for his love for his concubine and her cleverness.
Although this Aunt Liu is a little clever, she also guessed one thing wrong. The fifth master can get the letter, not because the fifth wife is now in charge of the house, the fifth wife is just in charge of the family affairs for more than a month, and the foundation is not stable, and now the fourth master is the serious head of the family who has attacked the title, so some subordinates have vaguely got some rumors, and they are afraid of offending the fourth room and dare not go to the fifth room to ventilate the news.
But Cai Wei later discussed with Yizhi, and ordered a little maid to deliberately give a rumor over there, because the two of them knew the fourth wife's temperament, and those who had been soft for more than ten years, expecting her to stand up once and for a while, they had to find her a cane to support her first, if she fought alone, she would definitely not be able to get up. After thinking about it carefully, except for Mrs. Tai in the entire house, only the fifth room can stand on the side of the fourth wife out of interest, so they plan that regardless of whether the fifth room knows this letter or not, they have to give a word to the other side, so that the fifth master can come to support the fourth wife at that time.
In Xuhui Courtyard, Yizhi was thanking Cai Wei, "This time the matter is really thanks to my sister's idea, and she thought so thoroughly, she informed the fifth uncle and five aunts, and even Mama Wang invited her over to play a round and protect my stepmother." ”
Cai Wei smiled: "Sister, don't patronize and praise me, if it weren't for my sister's face, where would I invite Mama Wang to help?" ”
Yizhi sighed: "Mama Wang, she didn't want to help us, she just didn't want these things to make trouble in front of Mrs. Tai and hurt her body, she has been with my grandmother for decades, and she is the most loyal." Then he promised us to do what we said, and persuaded Mrs. Tai to send my stepmother to come and serve the decoction for me. It's just that grandmother has seen so much, I'm afraid that I guess maybe my dad has done something again. There was a deep sense of concern in his words.
Cai Wei comforted her and said: "Sooner or later, this matter can't be hidden, fortunately, Mrs. Tai knows, this matter has been settled, and our side has the upper hand, and if you want to come to your grandmother, even if you are angry, it is limited, and she will not be angry." I'm worried about my sister, this time, I hid behind to come up with an idea, and they may not think that it has anything to do with me, but they will definitely think about how my sister persuaded the fourth aunt in the past two days, if so, ......"
Yizhi said: "Whatever they want, even if there is no such thing, can they treat me over there?" If you look at my own father who gave me to such a man for his own title, you will know what my daughter is in his heart. In his eyes, only Yi Ammonium and Yi Fei's brothers and sisters are his precious children, and I am just a pawn with a few usable pieces. ”
On the stall, a father who doesn't care about his daughter's life or death, really doesn't know what to say, Cai Wei thought of her father's love for her in Japan, taught and maintained, and replaced Yizhi sadly, but she didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to say: "Having said that, if Aunt Liu is jealous of you and refuses to give up, what way can she come up with to calculate you?" Can we not be unguarded? ”
However, what she didn't expect was that within a few days, there was indeed another incident in the house, but the spearhead was not aimed at Yizhi, but at her cousin Zhou Caiwei.
