On the top of the water pavilion, the needle drop can be heard.

Mrs. Fan half-bowed her head, turned over and over to look at the handkerchief in her hand, and did not feel that she had said anything that she should not have said.

Mrs. Tao's face was gloomy, and she moved the corners of her mouth slightly after a while, pulling out a smile of unknown meaning.

Aunt Min saw in her eyes, there was something she didn't understand, and she couldn't help but grit her teeth and look at Mrs. Tao with hatred.

Compared to Aunt Min's silence, He Wuniang's figure shook, she held He Sanniang's hand before she allowed herself to stand up straight, He Wuniang said in a trembling voice: "Old lady Tao, this is the truth?" You are still playing a round in front of Mrs. Chang, but you are a ...... You're playing us like monkeys? ”

Mrs. Tao held the teacup, snorted, and didn't even look at He Wuniang: "You little girl, you really can't speak." What is the old woman calculating about you? Did the old woman make you admire Master Chang? Did the old woman ask you to say bastard things to Mrs. Chang? If you misbehave, don't push it on your wife. ”

He Wuniang gasped.

Mrs. Tao said it well, no one forced her, it was she who fell in love with Chang Yuyun, which was ......

However, Mrs. Fan said that there are also girls in the Tao family who have such thoughts, obviously she is not alone, why should she bear everything, and the Tao family can hide behind and watch the play?

Aunt Min's heart was dull and painful, she was afraid that He Wuniang would not be able to control her temper, and if she had a seizure, only the three of them would suffer.

"Wu Niang ......" Aunt Min clenched He Wu Niang's hand and looked at her deeply. He shook his head slowly, then raised his chin and said to Mrs. Gao in a cold voice, "The Gao family is the east, you have a close relationship with Mrs. Tao, and you know the ideas of the Tao family......

We're being kept in the dark and stupidly calling jokes. But there are smart people here. Mrs. Fan can see it, Mrs. Chang, I'm afraid she already understands it, and a little person like us can't make a climate. But your Gao family follows the Tao family to calculate Master Chang. What would Mrs. Chang think?

That's a common home in the capital. If it weren't for those poor Zhizhou in the past, cleaning up the Gao family was like crushing an ant to death. Mrs. Gao, you can take it easy.

The banquet of the Gao family, in the future, the three of us will not dare to come again, who knows how many people will watch the opera here? ”

After Aunt Min finished speaking, she took one in one hand and took the two daughters downstairs, seeing that He Sanniang was depressed, He Wuniang was indignant, Aunt Min squeezed their wrists tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Don't bow your head, think about the He family who left Shaocheng that year, we left with our heads held high, and now we are also raising our heads and leaving the Gao family." ”

Mrs. Fan was a little closer to the staircase, and when she heard this, she was surprised, and couldn't help but glance at the backs of the three people.

Originally, Aunt Min was an unenlightened person, but she didn't expect that she also had a little bit of transparency.

It's just that the banquet of the Gao family in the future, not to mention that Aunt Min and they are unwilling to come, Mrs. Gao will not post with them here, the reasons are ready-made, only the wives and grandmothers of the main house are invited to the banquet, and there is no place for the concubines.

It's just that he refuses to completely lose face, so he has such a sentimental sentence.

Aunt Min's other words, Mrs. Fan also agreed, the twists and turns of the Tao family and the Gao family, Chu Weilin will understand sooner or later, and at that time, the attitude will be subtle.

Chu Weilin will not do anything to He Wuniang afterwards except for the fast tongue before, after all, it is her eldest sister's sister-in-law, no matter how biased her behavior is, no matter how unfavored she is, she will not be easy to deal with, otherwise it will be Chu Weixiu who is in a dilemma.

Perhaps, all the fault will be put on the Tao family? Mrs. Fan couldn't help but think about it, she glanced at Mrs. Tao, which girl in the Tao family couldn't figure out and was fighting Master Chang's idea?

On the second gate of Gaofu Garden, Gao ** sent Chu Weixiu and Chu Weilin, and when the carriage was far away, she suddenly felt that the sun was too strong, which made people a little dizzy, and she hurriedly held the maid's hand and walked to the shade.

Halfway through the meeting Aunt Min and the He sisters, she hesitated how to speak, but Aunt Min passed by not far away as if she hadn't seen her, and didn't even look at her.

Gao ** didn't know what Mrs. Fan said, thinking that Aunt Min was just annoyed and angry, and when a mother-in-law came over and said a few words, Gao ** Grandma's face turned white and said, "Really? Our old lady really made a plan with Mrs. Tao? ”

The mother-in-law smiled.

Gao ** tits were dizzy, and she stood up against the maid, and sighed: "If that's the case, why hide it from me?" I cheekily went to invite Mrs. Chang several times, and in the future, how can I go to the government office again and post again? The Tao family is there, it's Tao Qi, right? It's her, right? She's ......"

On the other side, Chu Weilin and Chu Weixiu's carriage left the Gao Mansion and went to the mansion without hurrying.

Chu Weixiu looked at Chu Weilin, who was recuperating with his eyes closed, and hesitated to speak: "It was originally a family matter, but it involved you." ”

Chu Weilin didn't open her eyes, and Wan'er smiled: "No, it's our master who is too recruiting, and it has nothing to do with the eldest sister." ”

It was obviously a fault, but this tone of speech revealed a look of intimacy and pride, Chu Weixiu couldn't help laughing, and gently patted Chu Weilin's hand: "Don't be ashamed!" ”

Chu Weilin smiled even more: "You have to go back to Shaocheng before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there is not much time, so you will draw your salary from the bottom of the kettle, so that they will no longer have a good life in Jinzhou, otherwise, they should have been slowly figured out, so as not to make a group of irrelevant people see jokes." ”

"Who's to say it isn't." Chu Weixiu also shook his head, "Whether it's good or bad, it's always surnamed He, it's good to close the door, and I really don't want to be too right and wrong in front of people." There is no way to do it, I have thought about it, Sanniang and Wuniang are not young, and they said that they married out, and their mother-in-law was satisfied, after all, they were concubines, and their mother-in-law did not look forward to their prosperity. ”

The marriage of a concubine often attaches more importance to the relationship with her in-laws, so that her mother's family can have one more in-law who can handle it, and the marriage of this concubine is successful.

"Eldest sister, your mother-in-law can win the fight with Aunt Min. It won't be a fool, you also said that your father-in-law is bent on Aunt Min, and your mother-in-law just didn't want to turn around for a while, and she will understand the truth afterwards. Chu Weilin said with relief.

Chu Weixiu bowed his head, thought about the attitude of everyone at the banquet, and said with concern: "Those two old ladies are not fuel-efficient, you ......"

Chu Weilin shook her head slightly and said with a smile: "Their thoughts." We've all figured it out. But. We are new here, and the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, and we will not tear the skin with the Gao family Tao family for such a small thing. If they stop there, don't stretch your hand that far. That's it. If you still think like this. You're welcome anything, I have time, I can take my time. ”

Chu Weixiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

When I left home. She heard that Chu Weilin had forgotten everything and understood nothing overnight, and her astonishment was still haunting her heart at that time.

Although she is not a particularly close sister, she is always her own family, and she doesn't want Chu Weilin to be calculated, seeing that she is transparent today, Chu Weixiu can't help but let go.

That night, the news that Second Mrs. He was actually an aunt had already spread among the wives and grandmothers who often went in and out of Gaofu on weekdays.

Aunt Min's life suddenly became difficult.

When she goes out these days, she always feels that the eyes of others looking at her are full of ridicule, as if she will point fingers when she is not paying attention.

That's it, she is almost thirty years old, and she has experienced a lot, she can still bear such gossip, but she gradually feels that her two daughters are silent a lot, especially He Wuniang, just like a different person.

Aunt Min was anxious in her heart, and after staying in a familiar family's house and receiving a cold reception, she completely understood that there was no one to see them now.

If it goes on like this, the future of He Sanniang and He Wuniang is worrying!

Aunt Min was worried, seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming in a few days, she couldn't wait to see Master He early and discuss the affairs of her daughters with him, but she waited left and right, but it was Chu Weixiu and He Huaiqing who were waiting.

He Huaiqing got straight to the point and said: "Mid-Autumn Festival, my father must have spent it in Shaocheng, if my aunt wants to see my father, she can go back to Shaocheng with us." ”

Aunt Min pursed her lips disdainfully, but did not speak.

"No matter what my aunt decides, Ah Xiu and I will leave the day after tomorrow. Here in Golden State, do you still want to live with your sisters? They're all getting young. ”

Aunt Min picked up the tea cup, which means to send off guests.

Seeing this, He Huaiqing no longer insisted on anything, got up and said to Chu Weixiu: "Ah Xiu, let's go." ”

Chu Weixiu smiled sweetly at He Huaiqing, and said softly: "Master go and wait for me, my aunt and I still have a few words to say." ”

He Huaiqing was stunned, and when he saw Chu Weixiu nodding firmly, he didn't refute his wife's face in front of Aunt Min, and went out first.

Chu Weixiu walked up to Aunt Min and said in a deep voice: "Auntie, you have suffered the hardships of being a concubine, is it any wonder that you still want to let Wu Niang suffer like that?"

You said that you and your father-in-law are childhood sweethearts, and the relationship is very good, but because of the relationship between your mother-in-law, you are wronged and small, and your father-in-law misses the old love and has always protected you, so you and your mother-in-law can be a draw.

My sixth sister and brother-in-law are also childhood sweethearts, my brother-in-law treats my sixth sister, more affectionate than my father-in-law treats you, even if Wu Niang can intervene sideways, without a man to protect her, what benefits can Wu Niang get?

Even if you are not a regular family, it is a loss to be small for other people's families.

Are you willing?

Sanniang and Wuniang are both surnamed He, in the Jiangnan territory, it is not difficult to be a wife with their heads held high, as long as they return home and get married, the old lady and the father-in-law can still handle it, auntie, don't ruin your girl's future for a temporary breath.

I know you hate me for calculating you at the beginning, do you think I'm still calculating you now, so what about Sanniang and Wuniang? Are you really going to sacrifice them to fight me? ”

After Chu Weixiu finished speaking, she glanced at Aunt Min deeply, and in the eyes of the other party, she saw a trace of wavering, she didn't say anything more, and turned around to leave.

Aunt Min sat on the chair of the Eight Immortals, thinking about the days and nights of the past ten years, and unconsciously, tears flowed down her face.

It's too hard to be a concubine, even if she is protected by Master He, even if she is the niece of Mrs. He, just because her status is lower than the Hong family, she is far inferior to the Hong family in the He family.

Aunt Min was dissatisfied, resentful, but it was useless, as Chu Weixiu said, she lost on a marriage certificate.

With such a sad road, do you really want Wu Niang to go through it again?

Even if it is the Changfu of the capital, the Changfu of constant favor, but the concubine room is still the concubine room, and because of the high door, the rules will only be stricter, Wu Niang is no longer suitable in Shaocheng, how can she stand the rules of the Changfu?

Wu Niang's current warm heart can not change her original intention after seeing the pressure and pain of the Beijing family?

Aunt Min raised her hand to cover her face and sighed, her daughter knew that Wu Niang was not of that kind of temperament, and she couldn't bear it.

Here in Jinzhou, Sanniang and Wuniang can't say that they are close to each other, and only when they go home can they marry beautifully and not be stepped on.

Chu Weixiu is right, compared to the future of his two daughters, what is his own tone? She and the Hong family can fight for ten or twenty years, just as they can fight for forty years and fifty years, as long as her daughter is well, what is she afraid of Min?

Aunt Min made up her mind, so she called the housekeepers and mothers-in-law at home to arrange things in the same way.

Chu Weixiu walked to the Hanging Flower Gate, and when she saw He Huaiqing waiting for her, she quickened her pace slightly.

"What did you say to your aunt?" He Huaiqing asked.

Chu Weixiu said with a smile: "In the past, I always got angry with Wu Niang, and it was my sister-in-law's fault, and I apologized to Aunt Min." ”

"Apologies?" He Huaiqing asked rhetorically.

"Yes, if the master is here, Aunt Min won't dare to attack me, just me and her, she will lose a few words of temper, and it will pass." Chu Weixiu said very casually.

She didn't want to tell the truth, what is the bitterness of being a concubine, being a small grievance, those words can only be used to impress Aunt Min, but those words actually have another meaning, that is, the wife is mean, in front of He Huaiqing, saying that the Hong family is mean, Chu Weixiu will not be so stupid.

Besides, He Huaiqing's heart is also an aunt, and when he listens to it, he will only be more partial to the small one, and take care of that one carefully, as if he has really suffered a great grievance as a concubine.

It is clear that the one who is the wife is the one who is really wronged!

Eight carried a sedan chair into the door, but saw that her husband favored others, and she had to pretend to be generous, otherwise she would become a jealous woman.

Except for a marriage letter, apart from the name of a wife, what is left?

Chu Weixiu was bored in his heart, and after getting into the carriage, he took the topic away.

In the backyard of the mansion, Chu Weilin hugged Brother Lin, watched Brother Yuan and Brother Tong playing, Deng Ping's family came over, and said: "Grandma, someone from the capital has come, and I brought a letter to my grandfather and grandmother." ”

Chu Weilin raised her eyebrows, carrying a letter? There is a post station fast horse in the letter, how can it be delivered in person?

"Who sent it?" Chu Weilin asked.

Deng Ping's family lowered his hand and said, "Master Liang." ”

Before the words fell, Chu Weilin's brows furrowed tightly. (To be continued......)
