In the Qixia courtyard, Ganlu sent the little maid around her to go out to play, and when she was the only one left in the room, she pulled out the hairpin ring on her head with anger, and was just about to throw it on the table, and remembered that this was the only one, and the jewelry given to her by the two aunts of the green wisps of red tassels, if it was broken, it was difficult to explain in front of the two aunts, so she had to hold her breath and put it back in the jewelry box lightly.

She looked at the hairpin in the box with a faint light and thought that she couldn't bear the shame to say the words of her self-recommendation pillow in front of the two aunts that day, although she didn't get any affirmation in person, the hairpin she gave herself afterwards was the evidence that could be understood without words. I heard Aunt Hongying say that this is a gift from the Queen Mother to the two aunts, and it is a treasure in the palace! Mrs. has not received any decent rewards from the palace over the years, but now the two aunts around the Queen Mother have given this hairpin to herself, which also proves that she is qualified to occupy a place in the Hou Mansion, which is different from the past!

Thinking of this, she reinvigorated herself, wasn't Madame's opposition expected? And what is there to be frustrated about! She called the little maid in to fetch water, freshened up again, changed into a simple dress, and then slowly swallowed and packed up her clothes in the room. When the two aunts came back with their sons, she hurriedly picked up her little baggage and walked out.

Shao Ying was covered in sweat, but she smiled heartily, and said to Hongying, "...... I can hit my aunt's waist! ”

Hongying made a look of being extremely injured and said, "My back hurts so much that it's about to break!" ”

Shao Ying wrinkled her nose proudly, Cui Wei looked at the two of them with a smile on the side, and suddenly saw Ganlu carrying a small burden and standing in the hall with some reluctance, so she motioned for Hongying to take Shizi into the house, "...... Take a shower, change your clothes, and save a while of catching a cold. ”

Shao Ying went to the room by himself, and did not pay attention to the manna on the side, Hongying followed behind him, and the two entered the room, and Cui Wei signaled for manna to come forward. Ganlu walked a few steps unhurriedly, and after saluting, he said, "I have taken care of you these days, Madame has been to Qixia Courtyard today, and I want to go back now." ”

Seeing that she still did not lose her generous demeanor, Cui Wei felt that she was really a person who could calm down, so she said, "Why are you in such a hurry? I also want to stay with the manna girl for a few more days. ”

Seeing that she didn't mention the words of rejecting Madame, Ganlu was a little surprised and anxious, and said, "I can't bear to let my aunt go, but when the prince moves to live in the outer courtyard, my aunt is idle, and we will naturally have more time to meet." What's more, I see all kinds of situations in the Qixia Courtyard today, and I have instructed many details of the daily life of the prince, if it is a whim, it is not impossible to let the prince live in the Zhengqiu Hall first, and then the manna will naturally see my aunt every day. ”

She leaned closer and said, "When the time comes, how will the two aunts deal with themselves?" After all, Mrs. is the mother of the son, the son is still young, and he can't tell the difference between good and bad right and wrong, and it is the time when people need to lead by example and cultivate, but the nature of mother and son, even if the aunts are always urging around, it is natural to be close to Mrs. ”

A cold light flashed in Cuiwei's eyes, and when Ganlu saw this, she continued, "Auntie, don't forget, the drunken gaffe on the painting boat, the private meeting of the old people in the flower hall, the Hou Ye was confused by Madame, no matter what he asked, he let it go, but my aunt can't turn a blind eye...... The century-old reputation of this Hou Mansion has been inherited extended, but it is all tied to my aunt. ”

Manna left, Cui Wei entered the main room, Shao Ying had just been served by Cao Jin's two mothers to bathe and change clothes, changed her clothes again, sat on the chair with high spirits, and was talking to Hongying with high interest, "...... My mother asked me to go and eat with her! ”

Hongying helped Shao Ying and didn't let him jump to the ground, and while responding to his words, she glared fiercely at Mother Cao and Mother Jin, who were telling the little maid to pour the water from the barrel. The two hurriedly avoided it. Cui Wei walked over, beckoned the little maid to twist Shao Ying's hair with a handkerchief, and said, "Go to dinner, you have to clean up first." ”

Shao Ying sat obediently and let the maid work above his head, but his eyes were rolling around the room, and Hongying asked him with a smile, "What are you looking for?" ”

Shao Ying's eyes were fixed on the long sword he hung on the wall, and he said, "I want to give my mother a gift!" ”

The emerald red tassel followed his gaze, and his face changed, and the red tassel said first, "No! This is something left by the old Hou Ye, it was given to you by the Hou Ye, how can you give it to others! ”

Shao Ying said nonchalantly, "It's not someone else, it's for my mother." ”

Cuiwi's heart flashed with a smile like a smile, and she couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, and said in a rather cold tone, "Shizi, this is a long sword that the Hou Ye values, do you really want to give it to Madame?" ”

Shao Ying was still young, and she was a little frightened by her tone of asking questions, but she still relied on her natural stubbornness and said, "I want to give it to my mother." ”

What else did Hongying have to say, but Cui Wei stopped her, took down the long sword with her own hands, handed it to Cao's mother, and asked her to follow Shao Ying for a while and take it to Zhengqiu Hall. Cao's mother held the sword, and she only felt heavy and cold when she started it, and it was really a murder weapon, and she said that she was unlucky! Bad luck! Thinking like this, her eyebrows drooped.

In the afternoon, Songyan was sitting on the Luohan bed near the window and was anxiously facing the roster with Yuhua, and the people in the house were dozens of people in the inner courtyard alone, and the relationship between them was complicated and gave people headaches. Fortunately, Qiaozhi is like a little ear to report to God, she knows everything a little, and in the end, even Yuhua admires her.

“…… Therefore, most of the people in this inner courtyard were bought back after the Hou Ye built the mansion, there is no foundation, and there is no hostess in the house to preside over the feed, so people's hearts are floating, and if there is something to blow, they will take advantage of the situation to sway, hold high and step low. “

Qiaozhi thought for a while and said admiringly, "That's right, I only know that everyone likes to spread some gossip, and their attitudes change from time to time, but I haven't thought about why, you said this, I understand that this is indeed the case." ”

Song Yan smiled slightly, and then thought in his heart, how to make everyone in this mansion settle down...... She couldn't help but think back to the only lady she knew of who was in charge of the family's usual manners. When she was in the Yan Mansion, if the subordinates were good at talking, lost their duties, or even disrespected their superiors, what would Mrs. Yan do?

Family Law! Family Law! Family Law! The old mother holding a cane with an angry look appeared in Songyan's mind, which made her feel cold. The red lacquer staff fell on his body, and every stroke was a blood mark, and the pain made people lose their strength.

Qiaozhi Yuhua didn't dare to disturb Songyan, who was caught in the memory, so she whispered gossip, "...... During the time when I was guarding the gate, the Guanchang Lane was on duty every morning, and he had to come to our yard to ask for a bowl of water to drink. ”

Yuhua asked curiously, "Why is that?" ”

"It is said that the alley is too long, if the passing lights are lost, it is easy to keep up with the alley, we live in the autumn hall of Mrs. Hou, what evil demons dare not invade, the alley guards every morning to the water bowl to see, if only their own face is reflected, it means that they are not being targeted, if in addition to their own face, they see ...... other"

Yuhua was a little hairy by her, and she couldn't hold back her curiosity, urging her to say quickly, Qiaozhi lowered her head, "I saw another ...... Such a face! ”

As she spoke, she raised her head sharply and made a grimace with crooked eyes and a slanted mouth, and there was a crisp sound in the courtyard, and Yuhua was startled by her grimace and the sound, and screamed and retreated to Songyan's side, grabbing Songyan's sleeve.

Songyan came back to her senses and patted her hand soothingly, Qiaozhi didn't expect such a coincidence, and the sound scared Yuhua squarely, and offended Madame, so she stood up with a pale face, and Songyan said to her, "Go and see, what's going on outside?" ”

With tears in her eyes, Qiaozhi hurriedly went.
