Chapter 135: Dealing with the Restless Concubine (5)
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law cared about each other for a while, and then Jiang Muxue cut to the chase.
Before she started talking about business, she removed the maid behind her.
Seeing this situation, Mama Li, who was standing next to Mrs. Lu, immediately retreated, but was immediately stopped by Jiang Muxue, "Mama has followed her mother for most of her life, and she is a person trusted by her mother, so she doesn't have to be like this." ”
This Mama Li was Mrs. Lu's dowry maid back then, and she followed Mrs. Lu in the Hou Mansion for nearly 30 years, with ups and downs, and she experienced too much together, and the feelings of the master and servant were very deep.
Moreover, Mama Li has always been quiet and kind, and Mrs. Lu trusts her very much. Therefore, Mama Li is like a half-master in front of those housekeepers, big and small maids, and even the aunts in each room.
Jiang Muxue's words made Mama Li both surprised and grateful, and immediately glanced at Mrs. Lu, and the two of them met their eyes and saw the word "satisfied" in each other's eyes.
Jiang Muxue then talked about the encounter with the thief in detail from beginning to end, and Mrs. Lu nodded after listening, what she said was almost consistent with what the big housekeeper said.
"What does the eldest daughter-in-law think about this?" Mrs. Lu wanted to express her opinion directly, but she swallowed back when the words came to her mouth.
Dalang's daughter-in-law? Oh, Lu Zongqian's nickname is Da Lang, and calling her Da Lang's daughter-in-law is completely an intimate name.
Jiang Muxue immediately understood, pondered for a moment, and said, "Mother, I think there is something strange about this. ”
"Oh? How so? Old Madam Lu and Mama Li glanced at each other and asked urgently.
"There are four oddities. First, if you want to say that the bandits are blocking the road and robbing, it is naturally for money, and they generally do not harm the proton until they get the money, but when I look at the scene at that time, it seems that they are bent on killing me. ”
"Second, according to a family member, when the two groups of people fought, those bandits acted in a very orderly manner, as if they had been professionally trained, which made people feel strange."
"Third, as soon as a few little masters started to help, the bandits immediately withdrew, which is really incomprehensible, as if they were afraid of being seen."
"The last one, I can't figure it out even more, and now that I think about it, it looks like they were deliberately ambushing and waiting for our carriage to appear, why is that?"
Jiang Muxue finished speaking, but seeing that Old Madam Lu and Mama Li glanced at each other again, this time their eyes showed more surprise.
After a long time, Mrs. Lu took Jiang Muxue's hand and said, "Daughter-in-law, you have worked hard, hurry back and rest, you don't have to come up at night." Leave the rest to my mother. ”
Jiang Muxue immediately got up, "Yes, mother." You should also take care of yourself. ”
After speaking, he slowly retreated.
After she left, Mama Li couldn't wait to say, "The old lady's vision is really good. ”
Over the years, Mama Li has rarely been so eager to evaluate a person, and Mrs. Lu also nodded, "Thoughtful, courageous and knowledgeable, but people are too young." ”
Mama Li sneered and said: "No matter how young a child is, when he grows up, as long as the old lady is willing to teach, at most a year or two, the lady will be able to take charge on her own." ”
Mrs. Lu nodded again and sighed: "When this child first came, she didn't like to talk, and when she spoke, she was soft and glutinous...... Also, this child has only been here for more than a month, and he understands a person, how can it be enough in such a short time! ”
Mama Li echoed and agreed with Mrs. Lu's point of view.
After the two commented on Jiang Muxue, they began to turn to the topic.
"You personally hand over this matter to Da Lang to do, let him check it carefully, what is going on, looking at the entire Huajin City, someone dares to touch our Lu family, it is really a bear heart and a leopard gall!"
"Old lady, rest assured, the old slave will definitely assist Master Hou to find out about this matter."
"Remember, be quiet." Old Madam Lu told again.
After saying this, he actually showed a look of regret, "Hey, speaking of which, it's all my fault, I originally wanted to test the child's heart, so she made her wish for me, and clinker actually happened like this." It can be seen that there are gods three feet up your head, and if you are disrespectful, the gods will condemn themselves. Sin, sin ......"
Old Madam Lu clasped her hands together and closed her eyes.
Mama Li hurriedly enlightened, "Old lady, don't think like this, your purpose is to test your wife's filial piety, you just have such an idea, the gods and Buddhas will help you achieve your wishes, this is the good fruit of your daily devout worship of him." If the gods really want to punish, Madame will ...... It can be seen that this is a test given by the gods and Buddhas. ”
After Mama Li's enlightenment, Mrs. Lu was in a much better mood, and Song Rongjin was unharmed, and she no longer complained about herself.
In the evening, Lu Zongqian returned home and learned of the incident, and immediately secretly sent someone to investigate.
After that, I thought about it and went to Qinxin Garden.
Hearing that Lu Zongqian was coming, Jiang Muxue cheered up.
That scumbag, although he didn't directly kill Song Rongjin in his previous life, he was also an accomplice.
A lustful and fame-laden scumbag!
In his previous life, because he didn't like Song Rongjin, he was indifferent and ignored her, and in the end, he spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and he didn't even have the least respect for Song Rongjin.
He knew that Song Rongjin was terminally ill and could die at any time, but in the end, he didn't come to look at Song Rongjin, so she died with hatred.
Thinking of this, Jiang Muxue hated it, and resentment swished out in her heart.
Just as she was about to summon the resentment bag to collect, she heard the maid outside the door shouting: "Master Hou is here!" ”
Jiang Muxue's eyes were white, what a good grievance, it was wasted like this.
When Lu Zongqian came in, he happened to see Jiang Muxue's side face and slammed it, and then remembered that Song Rongjin was frightened today and has not recovered yet.
"Master Hou, you're here!"
Jiang Muxue smiled lightly, as before, and quickly glanced at Lu Zongqian, and then quickly lowered her head.
Song Rongjin did this because she was happy and shy, and basically every newlywed wife would have this expression.
Jiang Muxue did this, firstly, to imitate Song Rongjin, and secondly, she really hated scumbags, if she raised her head, she was really afraid of accidentally revealing it, for the time being, she didn't want to cause trouble.
"Well, I just came back and heard about today's events, are you okay?" The voice was faint, not to mention how much care he cared, to Jiang Muxue's ears, it was purely routine.
"The concubine is fine, which makes Lord Hou worried." Jiang Muxue still lowered her head and said softly.
Lu Zongqian was stunned for a moment, and felt that Song Rongjin was a little strange, if an ordinary woman experienced such a thing, shouldn't her first reaction be tears in front of her husband?
Especially a person like Song Rongjin who is soft and kind.
Lu Zongqian, who has been wandering around the flowers since he was a child, has seen a lot of such scenes, so he can't help but make up that kind of scene in his brain at this time.
However, Jiang Muxue did not play cards according to common sense. (To be continued.) )
