"This rain hasn't stopped since yesterday." Mrs. Ding took the small teacup with ginseng tea from Mama Fang's hand, "You better sit and rest!" Save yourself from turning around, and your leg hurts again! ”

Mama Fang smiled gently, "Got it! As long as you don't think slaves are useless. ”

"Tut-tut! Look at your grandmother, what are you talking about? It's like my wife hates her. The grinning of the waiters in the room echoed.

Zixiu held the umbrella horizontally in front of her, turned the umbrella towards the verandah, the raindrops splashed, and several of the affected maids were so angry that they stomped their feet, but they didn't dare to scold Zixiu, although Zixiu was young, she was a second-class maid in front of the old lady, they had been in the house for a few years, and they were still rough maids!

When she came to the door of the main house, Zi Cen, who happened to come out to make tea, saw it and hurriedly stopped her, "Don't play!" You see, there is water everywhere, and you will go back to those sisters for a while! Zi Cen pointed to the few maids behind Zi Xiu who dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.

Zixiu looked back and realized that she was angry! Hurriedly put the umbrella away, and made amends to them, even though the maids were angry, but they all apologized, and they would not be taken care of, so they had to turn around and do things.

Zixiu playfully stuck out her tongue, "I really didn't find out!" ”

"Alright! Don't play like that again! This is not a village in the countryside, there are few adults, you can play as you want! This is the house, and it is the old lady's courtyard, and the people who come and go are all distinguished guests, today is okay, it is a few of them who suffer, what if it is a guest in the house? ”

Zixiu lowered her head and reflected, and promised softly not to do it in the future, so Zicen let her go, and a maid in the house came out, "Huh? I said that this voice is like you, it turns out that it is really you, is the tea ready? ”

"Not yet, I'll go." Zi Cen turned around and went to the ear room, and Zi Xiu went into the house with the maid. "What's the matter, Sister Zicen counted you down again?"

"It's gone!" Zixiu smiled at the maid, turned around and went into the inner room, and the maid pursed the corners of her lips angrily. Follow behind Zixiu.

"Old lady, there's a letter from Jingli Du Mansion!"

"I said, my old brother knows, he must write a letter, I don't know if he wrote to scold me? Or do you want the second child to raise his noble hand and let his granddaughter-in-law's nurse a horse? ”

The people waiting in the house didn't dare to respond, the old lady took the letter from Zixiu's hand, and Mama Fang handed over the tortoiseshell glasses that were stored in the kang from the side, the old lady took them and put them on, and after reading the letter at a glance, she couldn't help but take off her glasses and close her eyes. Mama Fang saw that her face was not good, and hurriedly waved her hand at the others to signal them to stand down, and the old lady opened her eyes when the sound of clothes receded.

She handed the letter to Mama Fang, "You can take a look too." ”

Mama Fang took the letter. She looked at it slowly, and after reading the letter, she looked at the old lady and asked hesitantly: "Xiangye asked the second master to deal with it impartially, what if Grandma Du didn't follow?" ”

"Ignore her!" The old lady snorted coldly, "Let people go to Du's house to say something, and let Mr. Du testify in court." Just have one sentence to say. ”

The old lady picked up the teacup only to find that it was empty, put it back on the table and said, "Grandma Liu is a good citizen, what does she want to do, what does she have to do with the Du family?" The Du family gave so many dowries to her daughter, is it all fake? If it's true. That means that the Du family has no intention of letting her daughter not marry, on the contrary, they are very happy that she can have a good home, so they will help her prepare such a rich dowry! ”

The corners of the old lady's mouth hooked slightly, "So she said that it was the grandmother of the Du family who instigated her to cheat on marriage." It's nonsense. ”

Mama Fang nodded, "It's just that in this way, Grandma Du Da is ......not close to her own family, and this matter is caused by the second master, if the Liu family is sentenced to cheat on marriage, won't this one be even more annoyed by the old lady?"

The old lady didn't know what Mama Fang was worried about, she raised her right eyebrow and asked Mama Fang: "Before this happened, she didn't interact with us, did she let the second child judge the Liu family to win the lawsuit, and she remembered this feeling?" No matter what she does, she won't be close to us, so why embarrass the second child for such a person? ”

Also!

Zixiu timidly asked outside: "Old lady, the girl of the Fan family and the young master of the Du family are here." ”

"Where?" Mama Fang asked hurriedly.

"I just got out of the car, and the rain was falling urgently, so the second lady asked people to prepare rain gear to pick it up." Zixiu sighed secretly outside the door curtain, Zicen asked her to lift the door curtain, and she entered the house with a tea tray.

"The old lady is annoyed waiting for tea? The slave and maid just waited for the water to boil, and it took a long time, and I asked the old lady to forgive me. ”

The old lady nodded and took the tea, "Well, this tea is quite fragrant." ”

"yes!" Zicen and the old lady chatted over tea, and after a while, they heard the sound of rain gear outside the house, and then saw Fan Anyang and Du Yunxun coming into the house.

After kowtowing to the old lady to say goodbye, the old lady looked at Du Yunqi and couldn't help sighing, "This trip is hard for you!" ”

Du Yunqi laughed, Fan Anyang looked at the opportunity, and said that he had brought the gift back and wanted to send it to the second and third ladies.

"What about my wife's gift?"

"I'll remember it all for you! Put it in the outer room, and you will ask Bai Shao for a while. ”

Bai Shao got married, but she was still in the old lady's yard as the housekeeper's daughter-in-law, the old lady's jaw asked people to wait carefully, and when she saw that people were hugging Fan Anyang and went out, she turned her head and said to Du Yunqi: "When you came back yesterday, you should already know about the Liu family's defendant, right?" ”

"Yes." Du Yunqi smiled bitterly, "My nephew doesn't know what she thinks, she was led by a servant woman, as long as she told her about it, she would be furious!" ”

"She is also a pitiful, she left her mother when she was young, even if there are elders in the house, but there are many children and grandchildren in the house, how can she be worthy of her mother, then Mrs. Liu must be good, otherwise how can you let the wife of the family take a fancy to her and pick her daughter?"

Du Yunqi nodded, "What you said is that I didn't want to make Mingting sad, so I didn't send her to the government, I just let people out, who knew that she was shameless, and turned around to Mingting!" If it's just spending money on makeup for her daughter and spending money to eliminate disasters, it's fine! Unexpectedly, he was provoked by the officials, and falsely accused Mingting of instigating it. Du Yunqi was resentful.

He had good intentions, but he was afraid that if he sent the ink-greedy Mrs. Liu to the government, his wife would not be able to bear it.

The old lady gave him a few words, and showed Du Xiang's letter to his brothers, Du Yunxun smiled and said: "The eldest brother is soft-hearted, but some people don't know what to do and live up to the kindness of the eldest brother." What my grandfather said was that since people don't despise our kindness, why be polite to them, as for the sister-in-law. I thought that instead of reasoning with her, it would be better for her to see with her own eyes and ears, and let her see what good things her good lady had done outside, and to splash dirty water on her. ”

※

Fan Anyang did not go to the second lady's courtyard, but to the small flower hall for hospitality, because today's companions, as well as the Zhao family sisters, got off the bus. The grandmother sent by the second lady said that the rain was inconvenient, so she invited their sisters to see the second lady in the small flower hall, and the old lady did not need to go there.

Generally speaking, it is the first thing that should go to see the old lady. However, the second lady considered that it was not good to let the guests come and go, and it would not be good if the clothes were wet.

Fan Anyang felt that the second aunt must have heard that the second girl Zhao had a big mind! So I didn't want her to walk around in the inner courtyard of her house, so she simply detained people in the small flower hall.

In the small flower hall, Fan Anyang finally met the sisters of the Zhao family, who were indeed born like flowers and jade, and their sisters were gentle and dignified, with a slight stubbornness between their eyebrows. The younger sister is lively and pretty, looking forward to life, and she is very cute and cute.

Of course, if you don't listen to Zhao Lizhu, you will definitely be coaxed by her harmless appearance.

Before Fan Anyang sat down, Zhao Lizhu frowned at her and asked, "Where did the Fan family's sister Shicai go?" Why did you go with your cousin? ”

This is my grandmother's house, my second uncle's house. Where am I going, and I have to explain to you as an outsider? Fan Anyang raised his eyebrows slightly and ignored her, but Zhao Wenzhu hurriedly grabbed his sister and didn't let her say any more. Bian Chao Fan Anyang said, "I'm sorry, my sister is young and ignorant, if you offend, please forgive Sister Fan." ”

"Miss Zhao is polite!" Fan Anyang smiled back at her, and then asked the second lady for the guilt, "I just went to ask my grandmother for peace first, so it's too late, and I ask the second aunt not to mind." ”

"What words! When you come back from a long trip, you should go to greet the old lady, I originally wanted you to stay in the main room, but after thinking about it, I still let you come over. ”

The second lady pulled Fan Anyang to her, "I think when you first arrived in the mansion, you were only a little old, and now you are going to get married!" How the days go by! The second lady sighed that time flew by, and the two daughters-in-law were busy persuading each other, and the second lady smiled and asked her to find Ding Xiaolou.

"Originally, it was raining outside, so it was not good for you to run around the house, but their sisters are going to add makeup to you and put all the things in the thirteen girls, you go and see, go back to your third aunt and their mother and daughter will go to Beijing with you! Go and discuss this with them. ”

Fan Anyang nodded and was accompanied by Ding Xiuwei's daughter-in-law to find Ding Xiaolou in the third room, and the second lady also had to deal with housework, so she asked the Zhao sisters to sit in the warm pavilion next to the flower hall, and went to her own house.

There were only the Zhao sisters in the warm pavilion, and after a little maid served tea, she was called out to run errands.

Zhao Wenzhu started her own family, she was used to seeing people's warmth and coldness, and there was no one waiting in the house, she didn't think there was anything, but Zhao Lizhu was unhappy!

Especially after drinking a bowl of tea, I felt a little hungry and wanted to change my clothes, but no one came in to wait, Zhao Lizhu first counted the second lady's ineffective housekeeping and poor hospitality, and remembered that the second lady treated Fan Anyang differently from them.

Zhao Lizhu fired at her sister, "Why did you stop me just now and don't let me speak?" That dead girl doesn't know how to be polite, and she's so close to her cousin, why doesn't she let me talk about her? Obviously they came together, why did she detain us here, but she could move around? Zhao Lizhu was open-mouthed, and she picked whatever she thought of ugly.

Listening to her sister's words, the more outrageous it became, Zhao Wenzhu angrily reprimanded. "Shut up."

"Why don't you let me say it?" Zhao Lizhu craned her neck and shouted in a low voice. "Eighty percent of the Ding family sees that the dead girl of the Fan family is a fool and can't get married, so they will connive with her to take Du Er's cousin, otherwise who will indulge their granddaughter in their own home like this, and make eye contact with the foreign man."

Zhao Wenzhu trembled with anger, "Listen to what you said?" Who are you who you think you are? If you come to someone else's Ding's house, or do you want to go to someone's Du Mansion? ”

"They're our cousins." Zhao Lizhu raised her head and said.

"That's polite, you think we're really the cousins of the Prime Minister's house? The cousin of my aunt's family is the cousin of the Prime Minister's house, we are not, we call it so, it's just convenient! Otherwise, why did Second Cousin Du avoid us all the way to Guangling? After arranging for us to stay at his residence, he avoided living in Fan's house? The next day, you will send us to Rangdu Mansion? ”

Just avoid suspicion!

In order not to give them a chance to rely on him.

She didn't believe that her sister couldn't read it! Du's second cousin is a talent, aren't you really impressed when you see it? But people treat her politely and avoid it so thoroughly, does she dare to have extravagant hopes? It's just that Lizhu wishfully wants to pull herself and Du's second cousin together!
