Tong Yao smiled, and her face did not change: "Naturally, my girl, what kind of character she has, what kind of scheming, I know best, after serving me for so many years, I will not let her drift like this because of things without a head and tail." ”

……

Mrs. Tong smiled and looked at Tong Yao opposite, but there was a hint of cruelty in her eyes.

Tong Yao smiled, retracted her eyes, and softened down two points: "Mother, my daughter wants to ask, can Linghuai give that girl to her daughter?" ”

Taking a sip of hot tea to her lips, Mrs. Tong fell silent and did not answer Tong Yao's question.

Tong Rui squinted at the other party and hooked her lips coldly: "What my sister said is not right, although the affairs in the house are handled by my mother, but up and down are a pair of eyes carefully watching, how something went wrong, my mother can't afford this crime, not to mention, my grandmother is still above, my sister should ask her grandmother about this matter." ”

Tong Yao's pupils were dilated, and she glanced at Tong Rui with a side face, only to see that the other party had a faint look of playfulness on her face, and looked at her with a light smile.

Mrs. Tong pursed her lips and smiled: "This is right, it's not that your mother doesn't want to help you, but that your mother can't be the master of this matter." ”

……

No matter how you intercede, how you talk, how you plead.

Mrs. Tong will definitely not let go of Linghuai.

"Miss......" Li Niang stood behind Tong Yao, her face a little gloomy.

Tong Yao walked out of Mrs. Tong's courtyard, and her face was gloomy and she didn't say a word.

Qin Yu sighed.

It is really called that the heavens should not be right, and the earth is not spiritual.

Now the consequences of not being favored have appeared, but Zuo is still nothing.

"Miss, the slave maid is going to the firewood ......"

Tong Yao waved his hand, there was a faint irritability on his face, and when he heard the words, after a while, he suddenly said, "That's it." ”

Qin Yu's face froze, and she was a little surprised.

Tong Yao sighed, with an indescribable heaviness on her face, and did not ask Liniang to see anyone, but the master and servant went back to the small courtyard together.

……

"What is Mother's plan?" Tong Rui looked at the tea cup on the small table that had never been drunk, and remembered what Tong Yao said in the room.

Mrs. Tong's face was a little gloomy, "Linghuai's girl is naturally impossible to return to her." ”

"As for whether it is dead or alive, wait and see."

"Your sister-in-law, the most important thing, now is this marriage, after the New Year, your sister-in-law will be fourteen, who to marry, I naturally have to think carefully, the girl around her is so rectified is also wanted, Ling Huai's heart is not successful, put it at hand, in the future, Tong Yao will marry away, I will not be able to believe it here, so I naturally want to put my favorite girl by Tong Yao's side."

Tong Rui thought about it, and couldn't help but smile when she heard it.

Squinted his eyes and thought about it, and suddenly thought of the scene where Tong Yao and the girl sent by her mother competed for her husband's favor, and she couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in her heart.

However, what is going on depends on Mrs. Tong's arrangement.

Mrs. Tong didn't want to ask her daughter to marry Yaofu.

However, what if the concubine is replaced by Tong Yao?

……

In addition to thinking about Tong Yao's affairs at hand, Mrs. Tong can't lag behind the things in her own room.

Scraping up the time, he made the decision to add fragrance to Uncle Fang's red sleeves in his study, wanting to downplay Aunt Bai's loss of a child.

To say that there have been few newcomers in the backyard of the big house in the past two years, Uncle Tong has not tried it for a long time.

Since it was Mrs. Tong who sent it, Uncle Tong also accepted it with peace of mind.

After the evening of the fifth day when Zhengling entered the study to serve Uncle Fang, Cai Ling was taken in by Mrs. Tong.

On the second day of Poria entering the room, she naturally had to give Mrs. Tong tea and a concubine ceremony.

Mrs. Fang smiled and gave Poria a new small courtyard in Fang's mansion, asking her to serve Uncle Tong in peace.

Although Poria doesn't look very good on her face, but she is young in the end, she still can't hide the joy on her face.

Seeing this, Mrs. Tong secretly hooked the corners of her mouth, and then called Fang's mother over, and said, "A few girls prepared in the front room will be sent to the new aunt." ”

Fang's mother nodded yes, and then sent someone to give instructions.

After Poria Cocos arrived at Tong's Mansion and was taken in for a few days, Uncle Tong did not go to Aunt Bai's room so often to comfort Aunt Bai who was in pain of losing her child, and often stayed in Mrs. Tong's room for one day of seven days, and stayed overnight in Poria Cocos's room for two to three days.

Aunt Bai learned that Mrs. Tong had taken another concubine for Uncle Tong, and she was resentful.

Mrs. Tong achieved her goal and seemed very satisfied, as long as Uncle Tong could go to Aunt Bai's room a few times, it would be right to accept Poria into the room.

……

"Your brother is fifteen this year, and if he can't get along with Tongfu, I'm afraid he won't have a chance in the future." Mrs. Yao sighed.

Yao Qi wondered: "How come?" If this family affair fails, what other opportunities can there be? Aren't there still many girls in Tongfu?"

Mrs. Yao shook her head and said, "It's good that Tongfu has many daughters, but your brother is fifteen this year, except for Tong Tongyao as a concubine, although Tong Rui is also ten years old, but even if your brother can wait, Mrs. Tong may not be willing to marry her daughter to your brother."

Hearing this, Yao Qi suddenly didn't know how to answer.

"Far water can't quench the thirst of the near, if the Yao Mansion can wait until then, there is no need to rush to the Tong Mansion to get married now."

Yao Qi was silent.

Mrs. Yao sighed again.

"Let's see, what will Brother Qian do when he comes back this month."

……

"Miss, is Linghuai's matter really like this?" While setting up the meal, Li Niang looked at Tong Yao with some doubts.

Tong Yao ate unhurriedly, and the expression on her face returned to the unsurprised and unhappy way she was a few days ago, "Don't talk too much about things that have nothing to do with you." ”

Tong Yao frowned, suddenly raised her head and scolded sharply, looking at Liniang's appearance, she felt very irritable in her heart: "Go out-"

Qin Yu looked at such a scene, and was silent in her heart.

It's not that it doesn't matter, but it can't be managed.

Mrs. Tong didn't say anything, but for Mrs. Tong, Tong Yao couldn't tell her request, so she must be very clear about her situation in her own heart.

For dinner, Tong Yao didn't use a few mouthfuls and put it down.

Although he no longer cares about Linghuai's affairs in the firewood room, he is still uncomfortable in his heart.

……

Three watches in the middle of the night.

Qin Yu went out of the house to go to the toilet, but saw that the lights in Tong Yao's room were bright.

Deng Shi was a little puzzled and squinted his eyes.

After a few steps to Tong Yao's door, Qin Yu frowned, and couldn't help knocking on the door-

"Miss, what's the matter?" Qin Yu leaned outside the room and asked with some concern.

The candle flame in the room flickered in a trance.

One light and one dark.

On that side, no one responded to Qin Yu's answer.

Biting her lower lip, Qin Yu frowned and pondered.

Ling Huai will not knock Tong Yao to a slump in this matter.
