Chapter 13 Dispatch
Mrs. Xia sat cross-legged on the Luohan bed.
She was dressed in an ochre-colored Ruyi placket and buttoned jacket, with a horse-faced skirt of the same color, the material with a dark pattern was embroidered with a pine crane, and her half-black and half-silver hair was combed neatly and neatly, and her forehead was fixed with turquoise, which looked calm and rich.
Old Mrs. Xia raised her hand and gently patted Du Yunluo's waist, revealing a clear green jade bracelet on the cuffs.
"I heard from the people below, you had a nightmare a few days ago?" Old Lady Xia stared at Du Yunluo's eyes carefully, and saw that there was no obvious black under her eyes, so she was a little relieved.
Du Yunluo replied: "I have nightmares, there will always be such a thing once or twice a year, and it won't get in the way." ”
"That's what I said," Mrs. Xia smiled kindly, "there was thunder last night, can you rest?" ”
The grandfather and grandson talked about some trivial things in life.
There was not much movement in the room, and they did not deliberately suppress their voices, and this question and answer fell into the ears of the people around them.
Du Yunying made a movement in her hands, did not raise her head, and continued to do her own thing.
Miao's heart sank more and more.
Not long after, walnut meat was piled up in the small bowl in front of Du Yunying.
When Mrs. Xia saw it, she said unhurriedly: "Yun Ying, it's almost, just one bird, how much can you eat in one go." That's all, you go to the study. ”
Du Yunying responded, took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands, and carefully went out with a small bowl.
Mrs. Xia said again: "Daughter-in-law Huaiping, you have a lot of things to do there, go and be busy yourself, and come back when you are free." ”
Huaiping's daughter-in-law refers to Miao's.
Huaizi generation four daughters-in-law, the eldest daughter-in-law Yang went to work with her husband, and Mrs. Xia handed over the middle feed to Miao's hands.
This matter is cumbersome and hard, but it is decent and oily, and Miao is willing to do it.
Zhen's body is weak and she doesn't like to be in the limelight, Miao is not afraid of her fighting for power, but the fourth wife, Liao, wants to get a piece of the pie openly and secretly.
On weekdays, Mrs. Xia threw out such a sentence, Miao must have circled in front of Liao like a proud peacock, and happily listened to the mother-in-law and ladies reply, but today......
Miao gritted the root of his teeth.
This is something to say to the people in the third room, take the opportunity to send their mother and daughter.
Miao didn't speak, secretly glanced at Liao, and saw that the latter was laughing heartlessly, and couldn't help but poke and scold a "fool"!
Mrs. Xia sent the second room, will she keep the fourth room here to listen? As soon as she leaves, maybe there is any reason to come out and let Liao and Du Yunnuo go.
Miao took a breath and smiled: "Old lady, I'm ...... there"
As soon as the words came out, Mrs. Xia interrupted.
"You know you're busy, just let you go. I know your filial piety, there are many people serving here, you don't have to remember it. Old Lady Xia said pleadingly.
The fire in Miao's chest almost burst out.
In the past, several mothers-in-law in Lianfuyuan chewed the root of their tongues, saying that Miao didn't know how to serve his mother-in-law, and he didn't know what he was busy with every day.
Miao was so angry when she heard that she almost turned her back, she was so busy every day that her feet didn't touch the ground, but she said as if she was lazy.
It's just that they are all subordinates in Lianfuyuan, and no matter how dissatisfied Miao is, he can't move lightly, so he can only sulk.
Then again, isn't it that Mrs. Xia moved her mouth, and the people below dare to talk like this?
Miao's hand hidden in her sleeve was clenched tightly, under this premise, she could still come up with a sentence "I'm not busy"?
Ping Suli, if she wasn't afraid of the Liao family's division of power, she would have been able to tell Mrs. Xia every day how hard and busy she was.
A smile appeared on Miao's face: "The old lady is considerate, but the daughter-in-law can't ignore the rules." ”
Mrs. Xia laughed twice: "Go, when you are free, come and talk to the old woman again." ”
Speaking of which, Miao couldn't keep it anymore, so he got up and sued and retreated.
Liao is a person who knows things, and when he saw this, he took the initiative to retire.
Du Yunnuo wanted to stay, his head turned quickly, and he wanted to find a reason.
"Fourth sister," Du Yunluo suddenly spoke, seeing Du Yunnuo looking up blankly, and said, "My sister taught me a few days ago, I can't play well, my sister will point me again." ”
Mrs. Xia was satisfied: "Girl's house, you should get together to tie the knots, embroider and embroider, go, the light is good in the west and it doesn't hurt your eyes." ”
Du Yunnuo opened his mouth, but he couldn't refuse, so he could only ask Du Yunluo to drag him away.
Waiting in the west room, Du Yunnuo shook off Du Yunluo's hand: "Do you really not know or fake don't know?" The third aunt wants to tell your grandmother about your marriage, don't keep an eye on it, and avoid it? ”
Du Yunluo lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "I know." ”
"It's ...... you know" Du Yunnuo was helpless, "We are all there, you say a few more soft words, and my eldest sister and I will also help persuade you, maybe this matter will be revealed......"
Du Yunluo twitched the corners of her lips mockingly.
In the face of Mrs. Xia, Zhen will more or less confide in the truth, and Du Yunluo doesn't want Du Yunnuo to know these truths at all.
She specially misled Du Yunnuo two days ago, of course she didn't want Zhen to leak her old background with a few words, so she simply broke Du Yunnuo.
Besides, Du Yunnuo's ability to fan the flames is not bad, and as soon as those few words of persuasion come out, things will only become more ugly.
"I know you're good for me, but you think, grandmother is a person who values rules and faces, if she already has the intention of refusing, my mother will not be able to say a few words, if grandmother wants to agree, we are one or two of us are in opposition, grandmother can't come to the table, wouldn't it be even more angry? When the time comes, if you bite me to death and want me to marry her, you say, what should I do? Du Yunluo suppressed her voice and whispered to Du Yunnuo.
Du Yunnuo pondered carefully, the truth is that this truth is not in line with her original intention.
She came to watch the play, and secondly, she wanted to light the fire, but now she can't reach it left and right, and she is really unwilling.
"You say, will my grandmother listen to the persuasion of the third aunt and refuse directly?" Du Yunnuo asked eagerly.
Du Yunluo shook her head: "Grandmother has a scale in her heart, no matter what my mother says, my grandmother will consult with my grandfather before replying to Mrs. Shi." ”
Du Yunnuo nodded thoughtfully.
Jin Ling sent the colored thread to tie the rope, and Du Yunluo sat down by the window, doing things dexterously with her hands.
Du Yunnuo's mind was in the east room, but unfortunately there was little movement over there, even if she pricked up her ears, she couldn't hear a word, paced back and forth a few steps, and had to sit down with Du Yunluo.
"Mother will try her best to help me, it's useless to be anxious." Du Yunluo said softly.
Du Yunnuo agreed, held his chin and looked out the window, and said in his heart: Why did Du Yunying delay sending a walnut meat for so long? If they come back soon, they might be able to go to the east room to listen.
After waiting for a cup of tea, seeing a slender figure coming in from outside the courtyard, Du Yunnuo's eyes lit up: "The third sister is back!" ”
