Chapter 20: The Whispers of the Wind
Du Yunluo couldn't understand, and was thinking about it, when she saw Laneige come in.
Laneige is Mrs. Xia's right-hand man, starting from a little maid, step by step to today's big maid, she is responsible and down-to-earth, and she is very popular in the house.
"Girl," Laneige smiled with a blessing, "the old lady is tired, please go back to Anhua Yuan first." ”
Mrs. Xia wants to send her away?
Du Yunluo stepped forward and took Lanzhi's hand, leaned over and said with a smile: "Sister Lanzhi, why was the second uncle angry just now?" Is it that even my grandmother is annoyed? ”
Laneige's smile did not decrease: "Don't worry, the old lady is not annoyed, but she is a little tired, the girl just goes back." The old lady also instructed the slave maid to go to the small kitchen to see if the rice dumplings were ripe, and when they were cooked, they would send them to the girl. ”
Laneige refused to show her mouth, she could stand in the Lotus Garden, the most important thing was to keep her mouth tight, no matter whether it was the old lady or the maid who came to ask, she couldn't say a word about the things that couldn't be said.
Du Yunluo knew Laneige's character, so she just did it, and said, "Sister will help me serve another dish of brown sugar." ”
Laneige sneered: "The girl loves sweets so much, and she also owes her good teeth." ”
After a few jokes, Laneige went out first.
Du Yunluo froze, she pondered what Du Huaiping said just now, no matter how she thought about it, it should be related to the county lord of An Ran, but this was all her guess, and she couldn't do it accurately before there was news.
Since Mrs. Xia said that she was tired and refused to see her, Du Yunluo simply walked back, maybe she could meet Jin Rui and Jin Ling halfway.
Mother Xu sent Du Yunluo out of the yard and turned around and went back to the east for a while.
Old Mrs. Xia leaned on the Luohan bed, half-closed her eyes to recuperate, heard the movement, and did not open her eyes, and said, "Yunluo went back?" ”
Mama Xu sat down on the pedal and took the initiative to pinch the old lady's legs: "Go back to the old lady, the fifth girl is back." Just asked the slave maid vigorously, whether the old lady was really tired or angry, and she was so anxious that she was about to shed tears. ”
Mrs. Xia was in a bad mood, and when she heard this, her face became better: "It's really a filial child, I didn't hurt her in vain." ”
Du Yunluo is favored, and Mama Xu doesn't mind helping to say a few good words casually on weekdays, and she can make Mrs. Xia happy.
"The fifth girl is a good boy...... "Mama Xu paused when she said this, and quietly glanced at Mrs. Xia, seeing that there was no joy or anger on her face, she pondered and said, "Old lady, what the second master said is uncertain, first, it is true or false, and second, it is true, and the fifth girl has also suffered from unwarranted disasters." ”
"Humph!" Thinking of Du Huaiping's words, Mrs. Xia became angry, "Huaiping came back in a hurry, can it still be groundless?" ”
Mama Xu smiled, remembering what Du Huaiping said just now, she also felt embarrassed.
"I know, this has nothing to do with Yunluo, she herself still doesn't understand it, what gossip can she provoke?" Mrs. Xia shook her head, very helpless, "I don't blame Huaiping, whoever it is, I will be angry when I hear those words outside." ”
"That county lord has always been so ...... when he talks and acts," Mama Xu said here, and she didn't go down.
No matter how the county lord of An Ran is not, she is a slave and maid, and she can't talk about it for a long time, even if there are only two people here, she and Mrs. Xia, Mama Xu also remembers the word caution.
Mrs. Xia spoke much more directly, and she had also heard of the reputation of the county lord of An Ran: "I originally thought that there was always an exaggeration in the world's arrangement, and it was said that our Yunluo was also a few words turned around?"
I didn't really think about her in any ill sense before. When I heard it today, it was really an eye-opener, how could there be such a style as a girl's family?
Rao has a heart, and he did not go beyond the elders and directly went to express his scheming to the prince. ”
Mama Xu smiled bitterly, today's little girls are really bold enough to make people's jaws drop, just now Du Huaiping said that when the county lord of Anran stopped Mu Lianxiao, she thought that she was old and her ears were useless.
"Actually, the slave maid thinks that the prince should deal with it decently, but she didn......'t expect it," Mama Xu still said a few words from Mu Lianxiao's standpoint.
It is reasonable for him to say that life events should depend on the elders. After all, it is the pearl of the Guogong Mansion, he coldly refused, and the old man should be unhappy when he looks back. Old Lady Xia sighed, "But he and Yun Luo are talking about getting married...... Ay! Yun Luo didn't know, and the prince probably didn't know either, this marriage was originally decided by the elders. ”
"That's exactly what it is." Mama Xu bowed her head.
The two families discussed each other, Mu Lianxiao didn't know it, and his answer was very decent, but it fell into the ears of the county lord of Anran who knew about it, and it all became a refusal and prevarication, and he was immediately so angry that he said to Mu Lianxiao that Du Yunluo was right and wrong.
The movement is big, and it is inevitable that others will listen to it, you say a word to me, the county lord of Anran provoked gossip, and Du Yunluo also suffered.
In the end, it reached Du Huaiping's ears.
However, Du Yunluo's marriage matter, Miao never mentioned it to Du Huaiping, Du Huaiping was stunned for a while, thinking that Du Yunluo's misbehavior would involve Mu Lianxiao, so he rushed back violently.
It's a pity that Mrs. Xia is in charge, not to mention reprimanding Du Yunluo for a few words, he has eaten a meal by himself, and he knows that he has screwed it by himself, so he can only hold his breath and leave.
"I know that Huaiping is in a hurry, Yun Ying wants to be married and married, if Yun Luo gossips, it will not be a good thing for Yun Ying, how can he, who is a father, sit firmly?" Old Mrs. Xia paused when she said this, her eyes tightened for a long time, and she hummed, "In this family, everyone is bothering to work hard for the future of each of them, but some people can't carry it clearly, and they think they have caused so many rumors!" The old woman doesn't care anymore, but she is not blind enough to see these troublemakers! ”
Mama Xu's back was cold, and she shrunk her neck, but she was afraid that Mrs. Xia would be angry, so she persuaded: "Old lady, it doesn't have to be ......"
"You don't have to excuse yourself!" Mrs. Xia half sat up, and waited for Mama Xu to stuff a pillow behind her before she said, "The matter of discussing relatives, there is only one word in the eight characters, and no one has said it outside, why did it reach the ears of the county lord of Anran?" went to the Jingguo Mansion, Huai'en's daughter-in-law and Yunnuo.
Huai'en's daughter-in-law knows the severity, that is, she knows some situations, and she will not tell her sister about such things, only Yunnuo.
It's a good Yunnuo, I don't know when I eavesdropped, and I took advantage of the time to watch the ceremony! I usually only think of them as sisters, but she is good, and there is such a drama behind her back! ”
Mama Xu sighed secretly, she didn't know how to persuade if she wanted to, after all, even she thought that this matter had nothing to do with Du Yunnuo.
After pondering left and right, Mama Xu simply changed her angle: "Old lady, the slave and maid are thinking, this matter has become like this, those rumors outside, if they are passed on, the son of the world and our five girls will suffer." I still have to invite Mrs. Shi over earlier to listen to the meaning of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. ”
These words reached Mrs. Xia's heart: "If it is spread like that outside, Mrs. Shi will definitely hear about it, I estimate that it should come tomorrow." ”
