Chapter 81: Alert (3)
"Old lady Qiqi, ladies and gentlemen, this girl named Wisteria is ...... Nothing."
"How is that possible?" After Gu Shi finished speaking, he realized that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly changed his sentence, "You can check it carefully, have you checked the seams of those sleeves and trouser legs, the jade pendant is not big, just stuff it in one place." β
Xu Shi just wanted to stand up when he heard this, and saw Wisteria walk out around the screen, "Puff" knelt on the ground, "The slave maid never thought that there would be such a thing today, I originally thought that Huai'en Houfu and Zhongguo Mansion were the same, and they were a family." So when the slave maid saw the big girl next to Aunt Fen's misbehaving, the one named Liu Ling stayed there again, and the slave and maid couldn't watch Aunt Fen hold her stomach but no one helped her.
On weekdays, our Mrs. Shizi and Second Miss always teach the slaves and maids that the two families are the Xie family, and the master of Huai'en Houfu is also the master of the slaves and maids. Therefore, in the case of the big girl next to Grandma Fen just now, the slave maid was obliged to help Grandma Fen. β
In Wisteria's very organized few words, he mentioned Xie Fen's girl's ugly thing twice, which caused everyone to talk about it in a low voice. Xie Fen also forgot to pretend to be pitiful, but looked at Wisteria in disbelief.
"The slave just did what a slave should do, but she never expected to be wronged like this. The slave maid was also raised by her mother's biological father, and looking at the situation of this house, she was wronged by the sisters who accompanied the wisteria to be examined. After speaking, he kowtowed to Xu's and blinked,
"Since the slave maid entered the Zhongguo Mansion, she has strictly adhered to her duty as a slave and maid, and has always been cautious in her work, lest she discredit her master and disgrace the house because of her own carelessness. Today, although Wisteria is said to be wronged, it really slapped the face of the Zhongguo Mansion. Mrs. Shizi, the slave maid has no face to live in this world anymore, please ask Mrs. Shizi to ask the second lady on behalf of the slave maid, and wish her all the best, health and blessings. After saying that, he stood up and slammed into the square table between Gu and the other old lady.
When Wisteria kowtowed to herself, Xu Shi gave her eyes to Mama Xu beside her, and Mama Xu immediately understood, and grabbed her when Wisteria hit her, but skillfully let her bump into it, and a small cut was made in the corner of her forehead, and blood immediately flowed out.
When everyone saw Wisteria like this, they all exclaimed.
"What is this for? This girl is too temperamental, even if you ask, what is wrong with checking, everyone checks like this. Today is our big day, is this how the Zhongguo Mansion teaches the next people? If you want to die or live, you will come to block the families of those who do happy events. Huai'en Hou Shizi's wife Wang said sharply.
"Mrs. Shizi also said that today is a happy day, and she doesn't go to the front to entertain guests but gathers around here to judge a girl. I don't know if the princess of the Rui Wangfu is important or the jade pendant of the Yunjun Wangfu is important. Xu stood up and said loudly.
"My girl came happily, and how she got it like this, I think Mrs. Shizi knows better. If Mrs. Shizi is really not convinced, you can find Master Hou to reason with my old lady to see which one intends to add to the obstruction on this happy day. β
In the astonishment of everyone, he commanded Xu Mama and others to carry the wisteria away.
Wisteria really fell asleep, one did bleed, the second was just a small snack in the morning, and the third was frozen after standing for a long time.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Cai'er looking nervous. Seeing that she was awake, the mountain spirit hurriedly shouted and went to bring porridge to feed her. Wisteria was nothing, just a slight injury on the forehead.
Wisteria sat up slowly, and Cai'er hurriedly sent the quilt behind her to make her more comfortable. The mountain spirit scooped up a spoonful of porridge and sent it to her mouth. Wisteria shook her head, took it herself, and ate it slowly.
Ying'er pushed the door in and said, "You are awake, how many times has the second lady asked?" While taking a sip of hot tea, he said, "Mama Xu also came to see it twice, and she said that if you wake up, you will send someone to tell Mrs. SΓΉ Shizi." β
"I'll go," the mountain spirit stood up and ran away without waiting for everyone to reply. Cai'er packed up the bowl and pushed open the door and took it out.
"You said you, what can't you think of. I know that you are wronged, and besides, there is still Mrs. Shizi watching in front of you, which will blame you. You are a person who wants to be ambitious, not Mama Xu stopped in time, otherwise, the real Huanghuali table will really kill you. β
"Hehe, it's okay, my life is on my own. I want to jump into the river back then, and I was washed out so far by the water, and it took two days and two nights before I was found by my mother, and I was not rescued. β
"You, don't do that next time. What if you have something to call your mother? β
"Yes, I see, Sister Ying'er." Wisteria took Ying'er's hand, which was sitting beside him, and made a coquettish appearance.
Ying'er was happy, and then sternly got up, "I thought, if Mama Xu learns that you are awake, she will definitely call your deceased wife or the old lady to reply." Although you are not wrong, it happened when Miss Ping got married anyway, so you have to think about how to reply. β
The more time she spent with Ying'er, the more Wisteria liked to talk to her. She is different from Cai'er's fast talk, different from the mountain spirit, and different from Ruoxiang's light yì, but will analyze one thing with you from the bottom of her heart, that is, she will let you better understand how to do this from the perspective of a third party.
The two of them were talking, when they heard Cai'er say outside, "Mama Xu, it's still snowing here, but you are holding an umbrella?" β
As he spoke, he pushed open the door of the outhouse, and after a while, Cai'er and Shan Ling walked in with Mama Xu and Baoping beside Xu. Baoping was married at the beginning of last year, and after giving birth to a child this summer, she returned to Canglang Garden to directly become the management lady of the Xu family.
When Wisteria saw the two people walking in, he was about to get off the kang, but Baoping took two quick steps and held it down. "It's so good to lie down, let's not use these false courtesies."
Mama Xu also walked over and said, "Does your head still hurt?" β
Wisteria shook her head and said, "I heard Sister Ying'er say that it was Mama Xu who helped invite the doctor, and personally asked Cai'er to get the medicine, thank you Mama Xu, I am much better now, and I ate a bowl of porridge just now." β
"That's good, it's good to be able to eat. If you think it's okay, then come with us, the old lady has something to ask you. β
Sure enough, Wisteria did not hesitate at all, and Ying'er and Cai'er helped her change her clothes and comb her hair again. The mountain spirit took a thick cloak and put it on the wisteria, and Mama Xu and Baoping glanced at each other and went out with a smile.
Wisteria was led directly to the old lady's inner room, the four corners of the room were lit with sheep's horn palace lamps, and there were two candles the thickness of a baby's arm on the long table in the middle, I don't know what it was made of, not only did no black smoke come out, but also exuded a faint fragrance, reflecting the brightness of the room.
Wisteria just wanted to kneel, but was stopped by the old lady's voice. "No need to be polite, you are still injured, you should have let you rest, but because only you know about this matter, you must ask clearly to know what to do next, sit down and talk."
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, Chunyi moved a small embroidery stool and placed it beside Wisteria. Wisteria just wanted to sit down, thinking that it was wrong, this is a very hierarchical society, even if he is too sick to get up, the etiquette in front of the master should not be lost.
So the action of sitting down is deftly changed to a kneeling position, "Hold her quickly, and say that you don't want her to kneel." Wisteria clearly heard the joy from the old lady's mouth this time.
This time, Wisteria was not polite, and after a while, he set up half of the embroidered stool and sat down.
"Tell me, what's going on today?" The voice of Xie Yuan, the Duke of Zhongguo, came.
Wisteria was stunned, he didn't expect Xie Yuan to be there, it seems that this kind of thing is not as simple as Xie Fen finding fault.
Wisteria simply raised his head and looked around, in addition to the old lady and the Xu family, Xie Yuan, the prince of Zhongguo, and Xie Zhong, the son of the family. In the summer, the old lady's second son, Xie Xiao, returned to Beijing to report on his work, and under Xie Yuan's operation, he returned to Huguang to continue to serve as a political historian. Originally, he wanted to leave his daughter-in-law Ding and eldest daughter-in-law to serve the old lady, but the old lady did not allow it, leaving only Xie Xiao's youngest son in Beijing, because he was only three years older than Brother Lang, so he ate and lived and went to school with Brother Lang. And Xie Yi also took the pregnant Li and herself and her eldest daughter to Huguang with Xie Xiao.
Therefore, now this house can be said to be the gathering of the heads of the Chung Kook Mansion.
Wisteria steadied herself and spoke slowly, and no one interrupted her. After Wisteria finished speaking in a well-organized language like a story, he looked at the old lady and stopped talking.
"Describe the person who took the jade pendant again." The old lady stared at the wisteria and whispered.
After listening to Wisteria say it again, he nodded. "You did one thing right and you did one thing wrong today, do you know what the difference is?" The old lady didn't ask about the day's affairs again, but asked something like this.
Wisteria thought for a moment and replied, "One of the things that the slave maid did right was to maintain the reputation of the second miss and not let the second miss become someone else's talking point. One thing I did wrong was to be too radical in front of the old lady, after all, today is Miss Ping's happy day, if Huai'en Houfu must bite this point, I am afraid that it will embarrass the old lady's masters. β
"Well, it's a clever girl. Cai Qin ...... "Mama Wang hurriedly walked over from the side, holding a small box in her hand, and handed it to Wisteria with a smile.
Wisteria didn't answer, just looked at the old lady. "Take it, this is my reward for you. You have to remember that the dignity of the master is your dignity, and the next time there is such a thing, you will do the same. β
Wisteria took it generously, and gave everyone a blessing one by one, and then was taken down by Mama Wang.
"Looking at it this way, the treasure they pressed in this move is also too big." Xie Yuan waited for Mama Wang to come back and closed the door from the outside and whispered.
"Well, that's right. When was Xie Fen born? The old lady turned her head to look at Xu.
"My daughter-in-law inquired, and it was at the end of this month."
"At the end of the month, there are only more than ten days left. The calculation is really accurate, even if it is really based on Sister Fang's premature birth, it will not have a great impact on the child in her womb. But if it is really because of Sister Fang, it will be difficult to wait for Sister Fang to get married. β
"It's so vicious, even the unborn child is used." Xie Zhong said in a solemn tone.
"According to Wisteria's description just now, who could this person be? How could there be such a young woman in the Wynne Houfu? β
"Yes, my grandson can't think of who it will be?" Xie Zhong thought with a frown.
"It's called Xie Zhi." Xu Shi was on the side. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the www.biquge.info (qidian.com) of Biquge to vote javascript:void(0);
