Chapter 411: Drinking Tea
After Hua Yude and Xu Qirong shook their hands and left, Qiu's mother was still indignant at first, pulling Zizhu to scold Huai. Zizhu, a maid who had just bought into the house, where did she have any confidence, and finally found Xu Qirong's old mother who married her and asked her to take an idea.
The mother-in-law that Mrs. Shen chose for Xu Qirong was originally to assist Xu Qirong in presiding over the feed, and who was not shrewd! Although Mother Yue didn't get Xu Qirong's instructions, Zizhu came to find them, and she heard that her grandfather and grandmother were left by the people, so she naturally refused to let go of this opportunity to establish her prestige for Xu Qirong, and agreed to change into clean and decent clothes.
Qiu's mother was still sitting in the flower hall, and when Yue's mother went in and saw the golden hairpin lie on Qiu's mother's head, she pursed her lips and snorted coldly, and when Qiu's mother looked over, she changed her smile and greeted her: "Mother Qiu has been sitting here for a long time, is the tea cold?" Then he turned around and told Zizhu to change the pot of tea.
Zizhu answered, and Yue's mother whispered a command in her ear, Zizhu glanced at Yue's mother in surprise, and finally agreed.
Mother Yue turned to talk to Mother Qiu about the jewelry on her head: "It's really good, I saw the proprietress of the shop selling flowers on East Street a few days ago also wearing this on her head, and everyone praised people for being more beautiful than flowers!" ”
The words are good, but the taste of the words is a little wrong. Young women in their twenties wear this jewelry, and your forty or fifty-year-old woman still wears this jewelry, which is really not serious.
Qiu's mother didn't know if she was psychologically strong, or if she really didn't understand what Mother Yue said. There was a smile on his face: "It cost me dozens of taels of silver!" You get what you pay for, and it's really not a lie. ”
If you say this to someone else's family, you will naturally be envious. But Yue's mother is from the Shen family. The last thing the Shen family lacks is silver, and they have always been generous to their subordinates, and Mother Yue pouted in her heart, but she echoed: "This makes sense." ”
As he was talking, Zizhu came in with tea and poured a cup for Mother Qiu herself, and Mother Yue smiled: "Mother Qiu has said this for a long time. It's time to be thirsty, so it's better to drink thin tea and moisten your mouth. ”
Qiu's mother was held by her mother-in-law. I heard her pick up the teacup, and the teacup was brought to her lips, but she couldn't drink it anymore, and the tea was obviously boiling water. When I got to my lips, I felt its heat.
Mother Yue asked with a smile, "This tea was brought by our grandmother from the Shen family." The best Longjing before the rain, now that the war is raging, it is even more difficult to drink such tea, is it difficult to make it difficult for Qiu's mother to look down on our tea? ”
Only then did Qiu's mother see Yue's intentions, frowned, and was about to point out that the tea was piping hot, when she heard Yue's mother say again: "Ye was very angry when he left." When my grandmother left, she ordered to serve tea to Qiu's mother, and our grandmother was the most pitiful and poor people. If we know that we have neglected Mother Qiu, I am afraid that we will be annoyed in our hearts, could it be that Mother Qiu hates our grandmother so she refuses to drink this tea? ”
Qiu's mother came to block Hua Yude and his wife, and she didn't dare to really do it with Hua Yude and his wife on the bright side, but now when she heard Yue's mother say this, Qiu's mother was busy saying: "How could it be!" I ......"
Before she finished speaking, Mother Yue glanced at Zizhu, Zizhu was clever, and immediately interrupted Mother Qiu's words, and said: "Exactly, as the old saying goes, thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the Lord, not to mention that grandma rewards good tea, even if the reward is molten iron, those of us who are subordinates should not shirk it!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Qiu's mother looked very ugly, and she couldn't say the words "the tea is too hot" on her lips, and she was so worried that her back was full of cold sweat, and she remembered what Mother Yue said when she left, it can be seen that Hua Yude and his wife are not at home now, is it possible to really admit this loss and drink a cup of hot tea?
Then you can't burn your intestines!
Qiu's mother was a little unwilling.
Mother Yue sighed and said: "Mother Qiu is from the Hua family, our grandfather and grandmother have something to go out, those of us who are subordinates, if we don't entertain Mother Qiu well, I'm afraid we will be condemned!" ”
Mother Qiu had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and immediately took it to heart, put the teacup down, and reluctantly smiled while getting up: "Since the third master and the third grandmother are not at home, then I can't continue to disturb it, and when the third master and the third grandmother are free, I will come again." ”
Mother Yue pretended to stay: "I haven't drunk Longjing before the rain!" ”
Qiu's mother was startled, and hurriedly said: "I have just drunk a belly of tea, and now I can't drink it anymore, why don't I give this good tea to my old sister to drink, I still have something, go first!" ”
Then she ran away in a hurry, for fear that Yue's mother would really leave her to drink tea, Zizhu covered her mouth and turned her head to please Yue's mother: "It's still Yue's mother who has a way, this old one, I don't know how to cure it!" ”
Mother Yue raised her chin, showing a trivial matter on her face, but she was very proud in her heart.
When Hua Yude and Xu Qirong came back, Yue's mother seized the time to talk back. Hua Yude's face was full of smiles when he heard this, and he turned his head to look at Xu Qirong, Xu Qirong understood, and smiled and asked Yu Xia to reward his mother with five taels of silver.
Waiting for Yue's mother to retreat, Hua Yude smiled: "For so many years, I haven't been so relieved today!" ”
Everyone is a member of the Hua family, and there is a family righteousness and generational pressure there, Hua Yude just hates it in his heart, and it is not good to fight with them with open fire, and he is not good at fighting with the women in the house, so he used to suffer a lot of losses and anger in words.
When Xu Qirong saw him like this, he suddenly felt a little sorry for him in his heart, and said with a smile: "It's okay, there will be me in the future!" ”
Hua Yude didn't care that Yu Xia and Ziyun were still by his side, he reached out and hugged Xu Qirong into his arms, rested his chin on her shoulder, and laughed in her ear: "Yes, there are you!" Just wronged you. ”
Obviously, he was talking about the Hua family's affairs before, but Xu Qirong heard that this sentence meant something else, and Hua Yude said that he was wronged, but he was afraid that he was calculating her in family affairs. Dengshi also felt a little uncomfortable. I have the heart to ignore this sentence, but I don't want the two of them to have an awkward life because of this.
After a while, Xu Qirong spoke: "What is there to be wronged, the Xu family is exiled, and the reputation is affected by Xu Jinxing's room, who is willing to come to the Xu family to propose marriage." Anyway, in the future, we will support each other and live a good life. ”
Hua Yude heard the sincerity in her words, and also heard the other meanings in her words, thinking about the last sentence, his heart was hot, and he said good: "Let's live a good life." (To be continued.) )
