Chapter 264: Retirement (2)
After seeing that Yu and Liu Qingsu had given a salute to the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the old lady said to Liu Qingsu: "The second girl is also here." ”
Although the old lady's tone was light, Liu Qingsu knew that the old lady was surprised why she came together.
As soon as Liu Qingsu wanted to speak, Yu said: "Back to my mother, Qingsu happened to be there with me, so I asked Qingsu to follow me." ”
The old lady nodded.
Liu Qingsu subconsciously glanced at Yu, but Yu looked indifferent, as if the person who lied just now was not her.
It must be said that Liu Qingsu was extremely angry in his heart at this time, but there was no expression on his face. No wonder Chunxiang had to wait for her to go to Chunhui Courtyard together. Now that I think about it, Chunxiang will only be able to come here leisurely, and Liu Qingsu can go to Qingfeng Courtyard by himself.
The old lady said, "Sit down all of you." ”
After Yu and Liu Qingsu sat down, the old lady said, "The people from Chai Mansion are also here for Yuan Yi's marriage today. The people in Chai Mansion said that Miss Chai was not in good health, and they were afraid that it would delay our Yuan Yi, so they said that they were blessed and wanted to withdraw from this marriage today, and the gift of accepting the levy was also brought. ”
When the old lady said these words, it seemed that she was talking about other people's affairs, and her tone was so flat that people could not see a trace of joy and anger. Liu Qingsu knew that the old lady was angry.
Yu Shi listened silently at first, but he didn't say anything, and he was not particularly surprised, as if he had known about this matter for a long time.
Liu Qingsu understood a little about Yu's call to her at this time. Even at this time, Liu Qingsu was a little grateful to the Yu family for bringing her to hear this.
At this time, the anger in Liu Qingsu's heart was overwhelming, but Liu Qingsu knew that she couldn't be angry. Otherwise, you will be left behind. So Liu Qingsu lowered her head to prevent others from seeing the look on her face. Liu Qingsu is not the smartest person, and it is impossible to completely restrain all her emotions when she hears such a thing. It's good to keep your head down.
Of course, Liu Qingsu is not just blindly silent, but thinking about how to open his mouth.
But the old lady never said anything after what she had just said.
For a moment, the sound of falling leaves on the trees outside could be heard in the Qingfeng Courtyard.
At this time, Yu Shi spoke: "I don't know when Miss Chai became unwell?"
Yu's words seem to be a very common inquiry, and he is also asking Chai Fu to say one, two, three.
The old lady was very surprised by Yu's words and glanced at Yu.
Liu Qingsu was very grateful to Yu for saying this. Yu's words were what she wanted to say but hesitated. This sentence first shows the attitude, and Liu Fu wants a result in this matter. Secondly, if you say that you have been sick recently and have not been cured for a while, then why delay it. Either Miss Chai is infected with an incurable disease, then the Chai family can be regarded as affectionate and righteous, and Liu Fu naturally can't live up to this sentiment in vain. If Miss Chai Fu had fallen ill early in the morning. So why didn't Liu Fu be informed in the morning. And Liu Qingsu also wants to know the most, if he was sick before, which one was before? Is it that Liu Yuanyi was also bad after being poisoned and unconscious?
The old lady of Chai Mansion didn't know what to say for a while. When she was muttering about how to answer, Mrs. Chai said, "It's been some time."
Yu said: "Mrs. Chai is really true, why didn't she inform Liu Fu, so let us Liu Fu show her heart." Speaking of which, we also know a doctor with good medical skills. ”
This time, without waiting for Mrs. Chai to speak, Mrs. Chai said, "Thank you, Mrs. Chai for your concern." I thought that my granddaughter would be fine if she had a good baby. But my granddaughter is not blessed......"
That's the end of it.
The Chai Mansion also said that Miss Chai had no medicine and stone, and it would be bad in the near future.
But the careful Liu Qingsu found that Mrs. Chai was very humble to a junior of the Yu family. This alone feels inappropriate. But if you think about the consequences of Chai Fu doing this. I can't help but feel that the people in Chai Mansion are chilling.
At this time, the old lady said seriously: "Chai Mansion is really good at thinking about people. The 'love' of Chai Mansion was recorded by our Liu Mansion. ”
The old lady Chai was so serious that the old lady's heart jumped.
"Peilan, go and let the kitchen make arrangements, and the Prime Minister's Mansion will stay here for dinner at noon today."
Old Madam Chai hurriedly said, "No trouble. There are still some things in the Chai Mansion, and the daughter-in-law is still worried about her granddaughter, so don't let it go. ”
After listening to Mrs. Chai's words, Mrs. Chai immediately changed to a worried expression and said, "What is the situation that Jinhua doesn't know in the mansion?" I'll have to go back and take care of it. ”
The old lady said, "So I can't keep it."
The words have already been spoken, but Mrs. Chai and Mrs. Chai still have no intention of leaving.
On the old lady's side, Pei Lan didn't go back to the kitchen after listening to the old lady's words, but waited for the old lady's instructions. But at this time, the old lady didn't say a word.
It wasn't until about a cup of tea time that the old lady suddenly said: "Look at me, I'm also old and confused, just remember that our Yuan Yi will be sad to know if he will quit the marriage after waking up, and I forgot to give Geng Ti to Mrs. Chai,." I'm really sorry for the two of you. ”
After the old man finished speaking, Mrs. Chai suddenly felt harsh, obviously the divorce is quite an impact on the woman's reputation, and the man will not have any big loss.
And the children of the two families have not met in private, at most, the relatives of both sides have met two people, and they both think it is good to guess the family affairs.
So Mrs. Chai didn't think that Liu Yuanyi would have any feelings for her granddaughter.
The old lady is just venting her dissatisfaction with the divorce.
But Mrs. Chai can also understand. Who can have a good face for someone who dislikes their own family?
Originally, this matter was also the fault of their Chai Mansion, so they didn't make a sound. Only Mrs. Chai was left, but her face was a little unhappy.
The old lady then said to Mama Sun: "Mama Sun, you go and find out Miss Chai's Geng post and give it to Old Madam Chai, and then put our Yuan Yi's Geng post away."
Liu Qingsu followed the figure of Mama Sun and saw a red post-like thing on the table next to the old lady. The people who wanted to come to Chai Mansion had already returned Liu Yuanyi's post before she and the Yu family came.
After a while, Mama Sun brought Miss Chai's post to Mrs. Chai.
Mrs. Chai and Mrs. Chai really said goodbye.
The old lady waited for the people from Chai Mansion to leave before she said to the Yu family: "You go and sort out all the dowry gifts sent by Chai Mansion into the warehouse." Wait until Yuan Yi wakes up and then prepare for his marriage. ”
Yu said: "Thank you for your mother's attention, it's just that the daughter-in-law is afraid that something will go wrong when she sees so many things, and the daughter-in-law sees that the old lady in front of her is very capable, why don't you help the daughter-in-law with the mother?"
How could the old lady not know what Yu meant by what he said. Let's not talk about whether Yu is really afraid of making mistakes, let's just say that Yu took the initiative to ask the old lady for help from the old lady's side, and don't say anyone, you know that this Yu is smart and cautious.
Yu didn't say which one was capable, but said that they were all capable, and he gave Peilan vanilla and them a few faces. As for who the old lady thinks is suitable, the old lady has the final say, and the Yu family will not make people feel passive.
In fact, in the final analysis, Yu is just afraid that Liu Yuanyi's dowry will have a problem, and she is not clear as a stepmother.
The old lady opened her mouth and said, "Then let Perrin go."
After speaking, the old lady continued: "You listen carefully to the orders of the eldest lady."
Pei Lan hurriedly said, "The slave knows."
Yu said: "This will trouble Pei Lan to go."
Perrin said, "The eldest lady is polite."
After that, Yu and Pei Lan left.
At this time, the old lady held her forehead and said to Grandma Sun, "Grandma Sun will help me pinch my head."
Liu Qingsu hurriedly said, "Grandmother still let me come."
The old lady said: "Let's let Grandma Sun come, it will be estimated that you don't have any thoughts." You're small. It's weird and tiring. Let's sit there and talk. ”
Mama Sun also followed and said, "Second Miss should take a break, slave maid come."
Mama Sun stepped forward to massage the old lady and said, "The old lady doesn't need to be angry, maybe it's a good thing to retire like Chaifu."
The old lady said, "I'm not completely angry, I'm just worried. This Yuan Yi has not woken up yet. Although the doctor said that it would take a year. But this day waits. I can't rest assured. ”
Liu Qingsu almost couldn't help but tell the old lady about the matter when she saw the old lady's worried and worried look, but she couldn't help but hold back when the words came to her mouth.
The old lady also said at this time: "But this matter in Chai Mansion today can be regarded as an eye-opener. If they say that it was because of Yuan Yi's poisoning and coma that delayed their daughter, we have nothing to say. After all, we don't know if Yuan Yi will wake up in a year. I don't want to think about it, though. But it's not that I didn't know that there would be such an outcome. ”
Liu Qingsu said, "Brother will be fine."
After listening to Liu Qingsu's words, the old lady opened her slightly narrowed eyes and waved at Grandma Sun, and Grandma Sun stopped.
The old lady looked at Liu Qingsu and said: "Second girl, I know that your brother and sister have a deep relationship, and I know that you must be very unhappy about the affairs of Chaifu, but grandmother, I also want to tell you today, everything today is actually a lesson." Mama Sun is right, it is better to retire early in such a situation as Chai Fu. ”
Liu Qingsu nodded and said, "Grandmother, I understand, but I still feel a little uncomfortable. It's not unpleasant for them to do so. ”
"Yes, they keep saying that the daughters in their house are not blessed, but if you want me to say that no matter how great the blessing of the daughters of their Chai family is, they have been tossed and lost by themselves. The good daughter's family quit the marriage, although they were the first to retreat, but they used such a reason, plus your mother's two sentences, who will dare to come to the door to ask for marriage in the future, or it is not impossible for the Chai family to be ruthless and let the Miss Chai family disappear directly. ”
Liu Qingsu heard this and said, "Impossible, right? No matter how ruthless Chai Fu is, it won't be like this, right? ”
But the old lady said, "How is it impossible? There is an old girl in Chai Mansion who can't get married, and it is caused by a bad disease, and other young ladies in Chai Mansion will also be implicated. Chai Fu would not have thought of the result after this divorce, but he still withdrew, which shows that the reason behind this divorce is not simple. ”
Liu Qingsu was a little puzzled. originally thought that Chaifu's divorce was because Liu Yuanyi was poisoned and unconscious, but now the old lady told her that there might be other reasons behind it, and Liu Qingsu couldn't figure it out for a while.
The old lady continued: "Originally, I didn't plan to tell you that I was afraid of you, but you are going to marry into the Prince's Mansion in the future, and the affairs of the Prince's Mansion are not as simple as those in other Mansions. And the affairs of the inner house have always been more or less inextricably linked to the previous dynasty. This is also why everyone should pay attention to the right person when marrying a wife, but those who are from high families must come into contact with these before leaving the cabinet, and some will be specially cultivated, so that they can do a good job of helping in the future. ”
Liu Qingsu nodded.
Then the old lady had another conversation with Liu Qingsu.
When she finally said that, the old lady looked at Liu Qingsu and said, "You didn't come from your mother today, did you?"
Liu Qingsu was a little embarrassed for a while, and finally said: "The granddaughter is indeed from Chunhui Courtyard."
The old lady smiled and said, "You did come from Chunhui Courtyard, but you should have been called to Chunhui Courtyard by your mother."
Liu Qingsu didn't know what to say, but it was not good to lie in front of the old lady, so he was silent and couldn't speak.
The old lady had already guessed it, but at this moment she just wanted to verify it.
"Your mother is getting smarter. It's just that I'm too careful in everything. ”
Liu Qingsu didn't know what to say for a while.
Mama Sun knew that the old lady was actually a little unhappy with Yu's self-made cleverness. But Mama Sun felt that it was a little inappropriate for the old lady to say this in front of Liu Qingsu.
So Grandma Sun said, "Old lady, it's time for lunch."
When the old lady heard this, she said, "I forgot everything. Let people go to see if the eldest lady has cleaned up properly, if it is okay, let her come over to eat together, if it is not, let them rest for a while and come over to eat first. ”
Grandma Sun said, "I'll go now."
"The second girl is also here to accompany her, and it will be more lively to eat more."
Liu Qingsu nodded.
Because Liu Yuanyi was dismissed, there were no more people to eat and more lively as the old lady said. The meal was quickly finished, and Liu Qingsu returned to Youranju, but Yu continued to take stock of the dowry returned by Chai Mansion.
The old lady said to Grandma Sun: "These dowry inventory is a little slow, you go and take a look, and help by the way." I'll take a break here. ”
Grandma Sun said: "The eldest lady is a smart woman, and the slave is clumsy."
The old lady glanced at Grandma Sun and said, "What do you think, am I afraid of what Chai Mansion has done?" At that time, you picked these dowries with me, and you also knew them. (To be continued......)
