When Yizhi heard this voice, she was stunned at first, and then hurriedly walked up to meet her, and saw that the second wife had already entered the house with a person in her arms. The people in the room were so shocked that they hurriedly saluted: "Say hello to Mrs. Tai!" ”

"Grandmother, you-" Yizhi looked worried, and she didn't know how much her grandmother had heard outside the window just now, but don't hurt your body.

The fourth old man also said curtly: "Mother, why did your old man come over, it was nothing serious." ”

Mrs. Tai ignored him, slowly walked to the side of the Luohan bed and sat down, before she opened her mouth: "Nothing big? A good sister fell into the lotus pond, is this still a big deal? If my old bones don't show up again, I don't know what kind of trouble will be made in this house? Don't think that I'm old and sick again, just thinking that I have hidden everything from me, do I really don't know if I can't do it, but I'm just too lazy to pay attention to it, you are getting more and more embarrassed? ”

It turned out that these days, the brothers and sisters Yicheng and Yifen relied on the private savings of Aunt Hu from their maternal uncle, and they really enveloped the little maids and maids who followed them. And the brother and sister agreed that if one of them encounters something, they will send the people around them to report it to the other person to know, so that they can help each other.

Therefore, when Yifen fell into the water and was sent to the courtyard of the second room, the little maid who followed her took a look at the air and secretly handed over a letter to Zhao Yicheng's little maid. As soon as Zhao Yiquan heard this, he couldn't go to school, so he ran back to the inner courtyard without saying leave to his husband, and went straight to Xuhui Hall to find the old lady and cry.

This alarmed Mrs. Tai to go to the courtyard of the second room to see Yifen first, and then came to the main courtyard, and happened to hear Yizhi mention the matter of the inheritance, so she asked again: "What did Fang Caizhi'er say about half of the inheritance?" ”

In front of his mother, how could the fourth master say this, Aunt Liu shrank into an inconspicuous corner early, and didn't dare to interject more.

Mrs. Tai's eyes swept around, and finally fell on the fourth wife, "Li, let's talk about it!" ”

"Yes, Mother!" Li Shi answered, and then explained the reason in detail.

"Grandmother-" Yizhi saw that Mrs. Tai's face was getting worse and worse, and couldn't help but worry: "These things are over, grandmother, you must take care of yourself, if you are angry about your granddaughter again, it is worth it?" ”

Mrs. Tai let out a long breath and smiled at her reluctantly, "Don't worry, Grandmother can save it, no matter how big it is, it doesn't matter to my body now." I just didn't think that there would be a father like your lord in the world, and it doesn't look like a father, but like a stepfather! ”

The words made the fourth master red, and he couldn't help but say: "My son also thinks that Sister Zhi's dowry is so rich, but her sister only has 5,000 taels of silver to dowry, so I want her to subsidize it, and it doesn't cost her much, it's just a sisterhood!" ”

Mrs. Tai said: "You just see that I gave Sister Zhi a dowry of 10,000 taels of silver from the princess, so you are all angry." It's only been a few days of hard work, first of all, I want to record the concubine child born by an aunt to the name of Mrs. Zheng to be a concubine, the fourth wife is very good this time, I finally know the rules and dignity, and I don't toss around by your confused master anymore. You saw that the fourth wife could stand up this time, and this way didn't work, so you put the idea on Sister Zhi'er. Pity her mother went early, you don't say that you hurt her more, you will only listen to the instigation of the embryo, and even let go of the little makeup left by her mother, but you have to divide it in half? ”

"Don't say that I am partial to Sister Zhi'er, if it weren't for the good family you set for her, I would never give her another 10,000 taels of silver dowry from the public school. It sounds good, he is married to the eldest son of Zuo Xiang, but the eldest son has lost a pair of legs, he can't be a official, he can't be an official, he can't be a general, but I'm afraid that he won't even be able to inherit Zongao. I'm afraid that I won't be able to share much family property in the future, and I won't give Sister Zhi more dowry, will she be able to suffer hardship and poverty in the future? If you think I gave her too much, so you ask Sister Fei to marry her sister instead, and I will ask the fourth wife to record her in her name as a concubine, and give her a dowry of 20,000 taels of silver, how about it? ”

Although Aunt Liu was greedy for money, she also felt sorry for her daughter, and refused to send her own daughter to such a fire pit, and looked at the fourth master with busy eyes.

"This-" The fourth old man looked at his beloved concubine and youngest daughter, and then looked at the eldest daughter standing next to the old lady, and pulled the corners of his mouth and said with a forced smile: "The selection of this family has already been decided, and it has already been stated that it is necessary to have a concubine, that is, now Sister Fei is recorded in the name of the wife, but I am afraid that there are many people who know, but it is not beautiful......"

Mrs. Tai didn't speak, but only looked at the fourth master with cold eyes, and the fourth master was already lacking in confidence, so his voice became weaker and weaker.

Aunt Liu was on the side, and seeing that the fourth master couldn't get to the point for a long time, she was so anxious that she stepped forward and said: "Old lady Rongyu, Sister Fei is only eleven years old this year, and she is too young, how can she just go out to get married, then the eldest son of the left minister is already twenty years old, where can I afford to wait?" ”

Mrs. Tai spat on her face and scolded: "What are you, I talk to my son, there is a crack in the ground where you speak?" How can there be a mother-in-law who didn't speak, and the daughter-in-law intervened on her own, besides, you are just a concubine and an aunt, and you are not even my serious daughter-in-law, but with your lord now becoming an earl, you have always been favored by him, so you also trembled, and slapped in front of me, what kind of rule is this? Blame Sister Daofei for being so disrespectful to her eldest sister, it turned out that she was raised by your mother-in-law, and a good sister was tired by you villains! Why don't you go out into the courtyard and kneel for me, and don't get up for an hour! ”

This time, I didn't wait for Aunt Liu to ask the fourth master for help with her pair of almond eyes, the fourth master had already begged his mother to intercede, "I also beg my mother to see that she gave birth to a son and a daughter for her son's sake, and spare her this time?" ”

Mrs. Tai didn't talk nonsense with him, and dropped a sentence: "Uncle, is this planning to disobey your wife for a concubine?" Immediately, the fourth master was speechless.

Immediately, two adoptive mothers dragged Aunt Liu out. Mrs. Tai looked at Yi Fei again and said, "Don't you want to make amends to your eldest sister and cousin Zhou?" ”

Yifei was most afraid of this grandmother when she was a child, although she was extremely unwilling, she had to walk in front of Yizhi and Caiwei, and saluted: "My sister was ignorant and arrogant, and offended the two sisters, and I also asked my sisters to read that I am young and ignorant, forgive me this time!" ”

Yi Fei was talking about making amends, but she was thinking about how to come back and think of a way to come out and rectify her two "sisters".

Mrs. Hao asked her again, "Are you unconvinced, blame me for not punishing your aunt, but just blindly favoring your eldest sister?" ”

Yi Fei hurriedly lowered her head and said, "Granddaughter doesn't dare." "I only slandered in my heart.

Mrs. Tai sneered: "If you really don't dare in your heart, then I don't have to punish your aunt!" As the saying goes, 'family and everything prospers', a big family like ours, which family is not a family with many brothers and sisters. There are also many people, because they know the rules and etiquette, they know that they respect their brothers, and they love their brothers, just like your fourth wife's mother's family, and the brothers and sisters support each other and prosper the family. But there are also some people, but because of this distinction between the concubines, fighting back and forth, first from the inside of the defeat, carefully study the disaster, is it that the brother and sister have known since childhood and the embarrassment of the grandson, are the people close to them who hide their selfishness, and adjust the three nests and four to provoke and pry, which gave birth to countless family houses! ”

"If your aunt is really good for you, she shouldn't put her crooked thoughts on how to calculate your sister's dowry, but let you have a good life and upbringing, and have the decent bearing of a lady, and it is right to say a good family affair in the future. Now there is only one girl in your sister-in-law, and your aunt can't tolerate her like this, if there is another sister-in-law, then the brother who is not instigated by her will be distracted? ”

Mrs. Tai looked at the fourth master again and said, "I have always been indifferent to the affairs of your room, but now it seems that it will not be successful." In addition to the hour of kneeling, Aunt Liu went to my yard every day to sprinkle and sweep the courtyard for three months. Sister Fei thought about it behind closed doors for three months, copied "The Fourth Book of Women" and "Boudoir Fan" 50 times each, and sent them to me to read. And Brother Ammonium, he actually did something to his sister, and when he came back, he sent him to my yard and gave him twenty rulers! ”

Mrs. Tai punished them one by one, and then took Yizhi and Caiwei to get up and go back to Xuhui Hall, the fourth master and the fourth wife personally sent out of the courtyard of the main house, and the second wife helped her mother-in-law all the way to Xuhui Hall, and was about to say goodbye, Mrs. Tai said to her: "You also go in to drink tea and rest, I still have a word for you." ”
