Chapter 292: Qian pretended to be stunned to avoid blame
"Mother, daughter-in-law married into the Houfu for nearly 20 years, and now, after giving birth to Wei'er eleven years ago, I drank an unknown number of child-seeking pills, and I don't know how many temples I worshipped, and after many hardships, I finally got pregnant again, I just hate to go to the temple immediately to make a vow, how can I not love it?"
Qian stroked his lower abdomen, and his face revealed a "mother's brilliance" unique to a pregnant woman, and slowly explained: "It's just that, as my mother said yesterday, after I married into Houfu, I took over the stewardship of Houfu. ”
"The dowry of Ju'er, even if it is not handled by me personally; Even those stewards who are greedy for the dowry are all the children of the Houfu; Even if during this period of time, Houfu has to marry three girls in a row, and there are other trivial things, which makes me unskilled......"
After some reasonable and well-founded words, Qian added in the old lady's cold and displeased gaze and Aunt Li's angry expression that was about to be uncontrollable: "But, in the final analysis, as long as the stewardship is in my hands one day, and such a major event occurs, I can't escape the responsibility of negligence." ”
"Yesterday, I didn't close my eyes all night and went through the list of my dowry." Qian's huge dark circles that were covered with thick powder, but still couldn't be hidden, and the redness in her eyes that was clearly visible, all showed that she was not lying.
"It's just ......" Qian Shi showed a wry smile when he said this, "I don't know if these management methods are too clever, or if there are other black hands hidden behind the scenes, I can't find clear evidence to punish them." Now, I can only rely on my mother for help. ”
"How can I help you?" The old lady said lightly: "Help you think of a way to fill the gap in the dowry?" Or did you think of a way to clean up the so-called stewards with a backstage? The stewardship of Houfu has long been handed over to you, you are the real housewife of Houfu, don't beg me everywhere like an ignorant three-year-old girl! ”
The old lady took a deep breath, and finally suppressed the feeling of boredom and vomiting that had arisen because of Qian's rap performance, and then made up for it fiercely: "What's more, now, the responsibilities are clear, why do you continue to push and wither?" ”
"Of course, if you are reluctant to give up the things in your private treasury, hand over the stewardship, and from now on, you will take care of the affairs of your courtyard, and do not interfere with the affairs of the Houfu again, lest such things happen again! After all, now, you are pregnant, if you make a mess of Houfu because of your lack of skills and powerlessness, if you accidentally affect my good grandson, you will not be able to make up for it even if you die a hundred times! ”
"Mother......" Qian opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the old lady's cold gaze, he slowly swallowed the words that came to his throat.
Seeing this, since she learned the news, the corners of Aunt Li's mouth, who felt that her whole person was burned by the raging flames, hooked slightly, and slowly admired Qian's flustered appearance, only feeling extremely happy in her heart.
Moreover, the old lady did not live up to Aunt Li's high expectations, and said again: "Qian, I promised Yu'er that within three days, I would make up for her missing dowry." ”
Qian Shi only felt a throbbing pain in his forehead, and Venus was scurrying in front of him, and his lips trembled.
The next moment, Qian fainted naturally.
"Madame!" Mama Gu exclaimed in surprise, and together with a few waiting maids-in-law, she either pinched people, or steadily supported Qian's body that slid down the chair, or rushed eagerly to the outside of the hospital, asking Dr. Li, who had only diagnosed Qian's pulse yesterday......
The old lady looked at this scene coldly, only to feel that the angry flame in her chest that had never been extinguished burned as if it had been poured several barrels of boiling oil: "Come on, carry the Qian family back to Feiyu Courtyard!" ”
After a pause, the old lady added meaningfully: "Be careful, don't hurt my precious grandson!" ”
For a moment, Qian, who was closing his eyes and pretending to be dizzy, actually had a feeling that he was being targeted by a poisonous snake with its sharp fangs!
After the Qian family disappeared from sight, the old lady raised her head, glanced at everyone in the room lightly, and finally moved her gaze to Du Zhixuan, who was lowering her eyebrows: "Four girls, you have also seen it, right now, the Houfu is in an eventful autumn, and it is impossible to hold a grand ceremony for you." ”
Without looking up, Du Zhixuan could feel the sympathy and pity from the Yu family of the second room and the Wang family of the third room, especially Du Zhihan and other unmarried girls, ridicule and mockery, etc., and her heart was light, but her face showed just the right amount of embarrassment and embarrassment: "It's ......"
"Fourth girl, I know that this arrangement is indeed a little wronged by you. It's just that, in the final analysis, the divorce between you and Wuhou Wang Shizi, regardless of whether the responsibility lies with Wuhou Wang Shizi, outsiders will still look at you with contempt and disdain when they mention this matter, which has an extraordinary impact on your reputation and Houfu's reputation. ”
"This point will not change in any way because you will be rewarded by the Queen Mother for your skills in the future. Otherwise, why, so far, no girl from the mansion has taken the initiative to post to you, inviting you to go out of the house to play and party? ”
"Now, your aunt is pregnant with the eldest son and grandson of our Houfu, and the doctor invited said that she is overworked and exhausted, so she can only meditate and cultivate, and your second and third aunts have to handle their daughter's marriage. In this huge waiting house, there is no way to find a second person to handle and salute for you. ”
"As a girl in Houfu, while being proud of the glory of Houfu, you should also contribute to the glorious future of Houfu, and you should advance and retreat with Houfu, presumably, you can be considerate, right?"
Although it was a question, it carried an affirmative tone that could not help but be discerned.
"Grandmother, I can understand what you say." Du Zhixuan pursed her lips, "It's just that since ancient times, it has been very related to the ceremony, and my grandmother also specially told me that my great-grandmother would attend my ceremony as a guest." ”
"My great-grandmother has always been dissatisfied with the fact that in the past few years, I was obsessed with the prince of Wuhou, and now, because I took the initiative to dissolve the marriage contract with the prince of Wuhou, I finally decided to accept me as a great-granddaughter, and will bring a few friends to attend my ceremony, when I heard the news, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep all night."
"Come to think of it, my great-grandmother has invited several friends to come to the Houfu on time to attend my ceremony, if you ......" The last few words, Du Zhixuan almost murmured, even if the Yu and Wang families, who were quite close to her, could not hear clearly, let alone Du Zhihan and other Houfu girls.
Everyone: "......" must be the wrong way for them to get up, otherwise, how could they hear such a "whimsical" remark?
Only the old lady: "......" This is a threat, a red fruit threat! (To be continued.) )
