Chapter 29: The End of the Song (1)
After all, those few poisoned people did have zĂ i, and those poisons were also real, and Yiyi at most used the topic to play and cleaned up all the slaves and maids in Yilan Courtyard, leaving some relatively loyal.
Mama Zhou saw that the old lady was interested, walked behind the old lady, and knocked the old lady on the shoulder.
"One is that the Tielan girl is a wooden sheath, but she is not impulsive, and she will never make assertions and act alone without the consent of the eldest lady."
"Second, after the eldest lady punished herself with ten military sticks, whether it was the eldest lady's close guards or the guards of the general's mansion, their impression of her changed greatly. Even outside the house, the stigma of the eldest lady in the past has been replaced by the current dare to act and take responsibility! â
The old lady nodded as she listened, feeling that what Mama Zhou said made some sense.
"From the whole way and the result of the eldest lady's handling of the poisoning matter, it can be seen that the eldest lady is not shocked or irritated when she encounters something now, and she is even more decisive in dealing with things! In the future, as long as she is trained a little, she will definitely be no worse than the second lady, even if she can't marry into the royal family, she can marry into the nobility, which is also excellent for the general's mansion. â
Mama Zhou cautiously looked at the old lady's expression as she spoke, and the massage movements on her hands were even more careful, and she was slightly relieved to see that the old lady did not look displeased.
A smile appeared on the old lady's well-maintained face, turned her head to look at Mama Zhou behind her, and chuckled, "In the past, you have never spoken for that girl, how did you remember to speak for that girl today, isn't it, what benefits did that girl give you?" â
When Mama Zhou heard this, she chuckled in her heart, immediately took two steps, knelt on the ground, and bowed respectfully to the old lady.
"Old lady, you have wronged the old slave! The old slave is dedicated to the old lady and the general's mansion! The old slave just saw that the eldest lady was much smarter than before, maybe she would marry someone in the future, and she would be able to help the eldest young master and the second young master, plus, there will be two or three months, General Ling Feng should also return to Beijing, when the time comes, if you see that the old lady loves the eldest lady, I think she will be more filial to the old lady! â
The old lady Lu Shi had made a joke with Mama Zhou, and she trusted Mama Zhou very much, so she got up and helped Mama Zhou with her own hands, and glared at her with disgust.
"Look at you're scared! The old body also felt that Yiyi's girl had become a lot smarter, but her willful temper, when she came, the old body would take a look! â
Since ancient times, filial piety is the first, although the girl said filial piety, but she is very stupid, often contradicts the elders, a tendon brain like being kicked by a donkey, is a master of oil and salt.
"Old lady, the eldest lady has come to greet you!"
At this time, the sound of the maid's announcement came from outside the meditation hall, and then, the eldest maid Shizuka, who was beside the old lady, opened the heavy curtain and walked in.
Through the open curtain, the old lady immediately saw the situation outside the door, and the displeasure in her heart was immediately filled with her heart.
I saw that in the meditation courtyard, Ling Yiyi, who was dressed in an elegant skirt, and Tielan, who was dressed in a cyan maid suit, were carried on stretchers by two guards and gently placed beside Ling Xuerou, who was kneeling outside the door.
Ling Xuerou stared at Ling Yiyi, who was carried in, with a surprised expression, looking at what was happening in front of her in a daze, a little relieved.
She never thought that Ling Yiyi would appear in this way, whether she was here to intercede or to smash the field.
Not only that, she didn't expect it, even all the people in the meditation courtyard, including the old lady and Mama Zhou, didn't expect it.
When Mama Zhou saw it, she immediately walked out of the curtain and strode towards Ling Yiyi, who was placed in the yard.
The old lady snorted coldly in her heart, and her deep eyes flashed with disdain!
It seems that the girl has not changed much, she is still so arbitrary, and although she is a little surprised by today's out, she really doesn't feel strange at all.
The guards placed Ling Yiyi and Tielan in the meditation courtyard and stood straight to the side.
They are men, and men and women can't be taught clearly, how dare they help the eldest lady? You can only retreat to the back.
Mama Zhou wore a jacket, trotted to the stretcher with a calm expression, squatted down with a worried face, and supported Ling Yiyi tightly with both hands, helping her up from the ground.
"Why is the injury on the eldest lady's body still not good? Why did you just come here? Doesn't that worry the old lady? The old lady just wanted to send the old slave to Yilan Courtyard to reply, so that the eldest lady would not have to ask for peace, and the eldest lady is here! â
In and out of the words, they all gave people the meaning that Ling Yi came to ask for peace according to her own willfulness, and forgot all about the fact that she was ordered to go to Yilan Courtyard to invite people just now.
Ling Xuerou saw Mama Zhou supporting Ling Yiyi with concern, and also got up from the ground, walked with stiff legs, and reached out to help Ling Yiyi's other arm.
Seeing Mama Zhou's attitude towards the eldest lady, several maids next to her became so concerned and enthusiastic, and immediately stepped forward to support Tielan, who was sitting up and wanted to stand up.
Ling Yiyi leaned weakly on Mama Zhou's shoulder, her pale little face hooked a weak smile, and she timidly looked at the meditation hall from the curtain that had been pulled up.
"Grandmother Lao is worried! Yiyi was anxious and reckless in the past, and she didn't cause trouble for the general's mansion, and often made her old man angry, and she felt very guilty! The day before yesterday, Yiyi made a big mistake again, almost lost her life, and then woke up to realize that although her grandmother was strict with Yiyi, she was really a good person to Yiyi, and she felt very guilty, thinking that she had not seen her grandmother after falling into the water, but her grandmother asked her grandmother to visit Yiyi, and Yiyi was really ...... in her heart"
Speaking of this, Ling Yiyi glanced at the old lady, lowered her eyes, her cunning eyes flashed, the handkerchief in her hand was gently raised, wiping the tears in the corners of her eyes, and she pushed away Mama Zhou's arm movingly, and wanted to kneel down to ask for guilt.
"Yiyi is guilty, and please ask the ancestors to punish him!"
Ling Yiyi is actually just doing the same. As soon as she saw that Mama Zhou, the old lady's most trusted person, came out in person, greeted people with a smile, and took the initiative to help her, she already understood.
Regardless of whether the old lady's attitude towards her has changed, or the old lady has other plans for her, in short, now, the old lady's attitude towards her in the past must have changed.
Mama Zhou's strong hands tightly grasped Ling Yiyi's arm and did not let her kneel.
"The eldest lady has injuries on her body, but she can't kneel! If you accidentally tear the wound, then the Venerable Master didn't say the old lady, right? â
Ling Yiyi's innocent little face raised her grievances, her clear eyes poured into Mama Zhou's eyes like spring water, and when she saw Mama Zhou looking at her with a stern face, she also stood up straight, no longer insisted on kneeling, and of course she should forget about the salute.
"Thank you for reminding me, if you don't ......, this is not the case!"
Mama Zhou held Ling Yiyi's arm, and Ling Xuerou supported Ling Yiyi's other side, and walked up the steps of the meditation hall together.
"The old lady is kind, and she will be happy to see that the eldest lady is so filial when she is injured. It's cold outside the house, so the eldest lady and the fifth lady should go in with the old slave to warm up! â
While speaking, Mama Zhou did not forget to nod to Ling Xuerou, who was standing on the side.
Tie Lan, who was also seriously injured, was helped up from the stretcher by the maids, let go of the maids' hands, and stood behind Ling Yiyi with a sword on his own.
Watching Ling Yiyi being helped up the steps, she slowly moved her steps step by step while enduring the severe pain, and dutifully protected Ling Yiyi.
Ling Xuerou bit her lower lip and helped Ling Yiyi with an embarrassed expression, seeing Mama Zhou's amicable attitude towards Ling Yiyi, jealousy flashed in her eyes.
Mama Zhou is not so kind to anyone, Mama Zhou has never been so kind to her, she is sick or something, she has never looked at her, let alone personally supported her.
Does this mean that in Mama Zhou's eyes, the status of the eldest sister is higher than her?
Rumei and Rulan, the four personal maids, also followed Ling Xuerou and got up and followed behind Ling Xuerou.
Ling Yiyi's pale little face with a little smile on her face, slightly bent her waist, and moved as slowly as a snail.
"Thank you, Mama!"
Ling Yiyi thought that as soon as she crossed over and was injured by the assassin, Mama Zhou dutifully protected her, without a trace of humility or contempt. Later, when Yilan Courtyard sang a big opera, Mama Zhou first watched the play, and then decisively abandoned Ruqin for the old lady. Then, today in Yilan Courtyard, he was not angry when he was stopped at the door, and his qi was not ordinary. Then, now, come and help yourself.
The old lady has always disliked her, and she will definitely not let Mama Zhou help her, this time Mama Zhou is taking matters into her own hands to help her, not only defending the old lady, but also not offending herself.
It seems that Mama Zhou is also a great character, no wonder she can become the most profitable and trusted person of the old lady, even if she makes her own opinions, she can get the approval of the old lady.
Just thinking about it, Ling Yiyi was helped by Mama Zhou and entered the meditation hall through the door curtain.
As soon as she raised her eyes, she saw the old lady sitting on top with a smile on her face, looking at Ling Yiyi kindly with worried eyes.
"Yiyi is here, come to grandmother."
After the old lady finished speaking, she glanced at Ling Xuerou, who had stepped into the door, and said lightly as before, who was not affectionate or estranged, "Xuerou is also here!" â
Ling Yiyi gently let go of Ling Xuerou, looked at Ling Xuerou with a little apology, crossed Mama Zhou's neck with her right arm, leaned her weight on Mama Zhou's body, and then slowly moved her steps towards the kind old lady.
Ling Xuerou's body stiffened, she didn't get a message from her grandmother, as a junior, she couldn't find a place to sit by herself, so she could only pinch her handkerchief jealously, bite her lip and look at Ling Yiyi who was walking towards the top step by step.
In the past, the old grandmother almost didn't treat their sisters very well, especially the big sister, and they longed to never see each other, why today, the grandmother's attitude has changed so much.
She knew that Mama Zhou had said good things for Ling Yiyi in front of the old lady.
"Yiyi has seen my grandmother, may my grandmother live a long life and be auspicious!"
Ling Yiyi gently pushed Mama Zhou away, and was about to kneel down and salute.
When Mama Zhou saw it, she supported Ling Yiyi with both hands and didn't let her kneel.
"Cough, cough" Mama Zhou coughed lightly twice, and at the same time, gave a look to the old lady who was happily sitting on the top seat with some anger in her eyes.
The old lady received Mama Zhou's eyes, and suddenly, thinking of what Mama Zhou said just now, she immediately put away her anger, raised her hand to help her in the air, and looked at Ling Yiyi with distress.
"Yiyi still has injuries on her body, so this gift will be waived! Come to Grandmother and let Grandmother see! â
In fact, the old lady was very unwilling and unhappy! This granddaughter ran to the meditation courtyard with her injuries and knelt down to her three or five times, didn't it make people say that she was unkind?
This granddaughter has always been used to being domineering, but today she suddenly showed weakness to her, but it made her feel even more uncomfortable, like hitting her in the face with a soft stick.
However, now, this girl has not only learned to show weakness, but also is very good at talking! From her words and actions, she couldn't find anything wrong at all, and she could only be secretly angry in her heart!
Ling Yiyi half-squatted and stood up with Mama Zhou's hand.
"Thank you, grandmother!"
She knew very well in her heart that if it wasn't for Mama Zhou coughing lightly just now, to help her, this old lady would definitely let her kneel and salute, even if it was just to vent her evil anger.
Tie Lan followed behind Ling Yiyi, made a martial salute, and then, endured the pain, and continued to be her wallflower.
Ling Yiyi slowly moved up step by step, looked at the old lady with shame on her face, and walked with difficulty with her eyebrows lowered.
"I haven't seen my grandmother for many days, and I'm panicking! I came to the meditation house today, one is to ask my grandmother for peace, and the other is to ask my grandmother for sin, because I am not sensible in the past, and I have also failed to live up to my grandmother's love and expectations in the past! I hope my grandmother will punish her! â
