Chapter 287: Capricious
The conversation finally turned to this matter.
Although Mrs. Guo said that she would not be angry with Mrs. Guan, Zhou Shaojin still couldn't help but sweat for her grandmother.
Mrs. Guo smiled: "This is the third daughter-in-law who asked you to come over and talk about it, right?" β
Didn't you say that Mrs. Tang in the second room was too ashamed? Why is it involved in Mrs. Li in the third room?
Zhou Shaojin wondered in his heart.
Old Mrs. Guan's face turned red and said, "I also mean this." Home and everything is prosperous. If there is any gap between you and your second sister-in-law, those of us who are younger brothers and sisters will always be a little worried. β
Old Madam Guo thought for a while, and said solemnly: "Fourth brother and sister, I'll be honest with you too, right?" According to etiquette, the long room should be the patriarch, but you see, the second room has always been reluctant to take out the family tree, and they have to press us everywhere, I don't know what they are doing? Do you think I have a grudge in my heart? A few decades ago, I didn't complain in my heart. Because there was no ancestor in the second room, it would be impossible for the two old ladies of our family to enter the office at the beginning - they had to leave one at home to keep the ancestral business, right? It is impossible for my two sons to participate in the imperial examination smoothly, and now one is in the cabinet and the other is noble and idle. But now in the past few years, I have a resentment in my heart.
"Since Shiro gave up the opportunity to join the office and took care of the general affairs, why did the ancestor of the second room still hold on to the family tree?
"Fourth brother and sister, you also know, I am a cheerful person, if I have anything to say, just say it clearly in front of the gong and the drum, say it if it is okay, say what is not okay if it is not good, and think of a solution to the problem. If the ancestor of the second room said that he wanted to continue to be the patriarch, it would be fine. Recruit a few rooms together and talk about it, we will hand over the sacrificial field in the long house, and in the future, they will guard the family business by knowing the brothers, and we Shiro can also go to the Ministry of Officials to register a number, find an official and a half-job, and say that after not dying, you can also earn a turtle and a monument. If the ancestor of the second room is just afraid that the heirs will not become a climate, he should let Shiro slowly familiarize himself with the clan affairs of the family, not to mention anything else, this Cheng clan should let Shiro try to manage it.
"How can you just say nothing, what's the matter of sitting there without a proper name?
"What did the ancestor in the second room of Yuxuan say that day, you should also be able to hear it clearly, right? Could it be that our family Shiro is not filial? He just asked Brother Geng'er to memorize the "Book of Filial Piety", what did the words he said afterwards mean? How can we not be allowed to think about it?
"What's so angry about the second daughter-in-law?
"If I want to be angry, I am angry.
"I'm also a grandmother at an age, when didn't the ancestor of the second room say something that pokes people's hearts? I know it, what are I going to listen to Yuxuan for? Don't think you're ashamed enough?
"I see that the ancestor of the second room is old and has begun to be confused. It's like Grandma Nawen. Our older generation is the grievance of the previous generation, but the younger generation is the friendship of the juniors. Otherwise, if the clansmen can't work together, this family will be broken up sooner or later. He actually took Brother Geng'er as a raft, and even if he memorized the "Book of Filial Piety", he also used the "Book of Filial Piety" that Brother Geng'er memorized to talk about things.
"You go and tell the third daughter-in-law, I forgot about this matter, and sooner or later I will have to explain it to the second room. Whether she is on my side or on the second room, it's best to think about it as soon as possible. Don't slap the horse's leg, only be kicked by someone. β
Mrs. Guo's overt and covert attacks made Mrs. Guan speechless for a long time, and her expression was embarrassed.
In the past, the ancestors of the second room can be said to have great respect for Mrs. Guo, and just Zhishi once came to pay homage to his cabinet chief assistant Qu Min in front of the official, "We can have today in Jiuru Lane, thanks to my eldest nephew and daughter-in-law", but it was Mrs. Guo, who acted as she wanted, and the ancestor of the second room did not say anything. The last time I listened to Yuxuan, according to the words of Li Lao'an in the third room, most of the ancestors in the second room looked at the long house, he was already tall, and his protΓ©gΓ© was old or no longer alive, or he was no longer in power, I was afraid that when it came to knowing my brother, Changfang would leave it alone, and Mrs. Guo did not go to listen to Yuxuan's family banquet for no reason, so she was angry and hastily moved.
Mrs. Guo is old, Shiro should go and apologize to the ancestor.
Shiro ignores it like this, which will only exacerbate the contradiction between the two rooms.
But Mrs. Guan felt that the ancestors of the second room would not live long anyway, and it was undoubtedly unwise for the long room to turn against the second room at this time. That's why I came back to persuade.
But what Mrs. Guan didn't expect was that Mrs. Guo hit a rake, saying that the ancestor of the second room should not insinuate that.
But if there is no matter that Mrs. Guo does not attend the family banquet, how can there be an ancestor in the second room who alludes to the fact that the long room should be filial to the elders?
At this time, Mrs. Guan has a thousand words, and she can't say anything.
Mrs. Guo obviously wants to pull the crosshair!
She had no choice but to sneer weakly: "Are we also afraid that you will quarrel? β
Fortunately, Mrs. Guo didn't continue, and sighed: "I understand your kindness, you don't care about their messy things in the future, some things are not as simple as you think." β
The words have already been said for this part, and it is difficult for Mrs. Guan to continue.
"When you say this, you have removed a big stone in my heart, I don't want to care about these things for a long time, sometimes it's really a hindrance." She changed the subject and smiled, "I'm rich today, and you can try the craftsmanship of the master chef." β
Cheng's kitchen is only in charge of the usual meals of the long room and the second room, and the other three rooms are all in their own kitchenettes. There are guests who need the kitchen to help with the whole table, and they also have to ask Mrs. Yuan in the long room to match cards or act on the orders of Mrs. Tang in the second room.
Thinking about it this way, the Cheng family is a bit messy.
It's no wonder that Mrs. Guo is unhappy!
Old Mrs. Guan smiled bitterly in her heart, and glanced at Zhou Shaojin when she left.
It's just that before Zhou Shaojin could speak, Mrs. Guo had already said, "Shaojin, you go and send your grandmother." β
Zhou Shaojin smiled and promised, and helped Mrs. Guan out of Siyi Building.
Mrs. Guan said, "Do you know why Mrs. Guo lost her temper?" β
Zhou Shaojin shook his head intuitively, and saw a little confusion in his grandmother's eyes, so he had to pretend to be ignorant and said, "Didn't Mrs. Guo just say that it was because the ancestor of the second room said that the long room was not good?" β
Old Lady Guan looked at her young face and shook her head in her heart.
Shao Jin, this kid is still too young!
In the future, the contradiction between the long room and the second room will definitely be greater, so it is better to settle the marriage between the child and Brother Yi as soon as possible, and send the child to Baoding Mansion, so as not to be sandwiched between the two rooms and be difficult to be.
Mrs. Guan told Zhou Shaojin a few words of "be obedient", and left surrounded by the maid and mother-in-law.
Zhou Shaojin went up to the second floor in embarrassment.
Mrs. Guo didn't ask her anything, just smiled and said, "Do you want to go back or do you want to continue to have dinner here?" β
It's the warmest time of the day outside.
Zhou Shaojin smiled: "Can you just stay in Siyi Building?" β
There are two small rooms separated by stairs on the second floor, which are used for resting or sorting clothes for the ladies during banquets.
When Mrs. Guo heard this, she said, "Then we will have dinner and go back." β
Zhou Shaojin nodded with a smile, and each old lady Guo took a nap in Siyi Building.
When they woke up in the afternoon, they played the leaf card again.
This time, Cheng Chi didn't say anything when he came over for dinner.
Zhou Shaojin only thought of Cheng Chi's words "How much you lost, I will make up for you", a warm current flowed through her heart.
It's as if he was her towering tree, and no matter what she did, he could shelter her from the wind and rain.
She pursed her lips and smiled, thinking of what her grandmother said when she came, thinking that Mrs. Guo must have something to say to Cheng Chi, she took the tea held by the little maid and put it in front of Cheng Chi, and went down to prepare dinner with Biyu.
Old Madam Guo looked at Zhou Shaojin's slender and not delicate back, and said with a smile: "This child has grown up by looking at it, and he is more well-behaved and sensible than before." β
Cheng Chi looked at her mother's line of sight, and responded with a little absent-mindedness, "yes", but she thought in her heart that when she knew that she went out to watch the dragon boat race during the Dragon Boat Festival, she didn't know how to be happy!
Then he was greatly praised for the knowledge and interest of the Wu prefect.
He just made a start, and the Wu Governor's Mansion took it, and in the end, he solved the matter with only five hundred taels of silver.
Governor Wu is not a good person, but he is very reliable in helping with things.
It seems that he can sit in the position of Jinling prefect for a few years......
Mrs. Guo told Cheng Chi about Mrs. Guan's intention, and finally said, "...... I'm getting older, and I'm too lazy to talk to them. β
Cheng Chi could see that his mother was still a little uneasy in her heart.
It should be for fear of affecting his arrangement.
He has been running around all these years, and his mother vaguely feels what he is doing, but she doesn't know that he is planning to leave the Cheng family.
Cheng Chi suddenly felt guilty, and couldn't help but take his mother's hand to comfort his mother: "Don't worry, the affairs of the family will not affect me." β
Mrs. Guo relieved her heart, thinking of Cheng Chi's promise that she would get married yesterday, her mood improved again, and she happily had dinner with Cheng Chi and Zhou Shaojin.
After Cheng Chi walked in front, Zhou Shaojin took Mrs. Guo's arm, and they talked and laughed back to Hanbi Mountain House.
Donald Anren gritted his teeth with hatred when he got the news, sneered, and said, "How long do I think she can laugh?" β
The maids and maids who served around them all pretended not to hear, bowing their heads and doing their own things.
Jiang scolded Li Lao'an: "No one else said anything, why did you come out of this?" β
Li Laoan said aggrievedly: "Donald Laoan came to me, can I not agree?" β
Jiang's tooth bindings were sour.
How can the Li family get rid of this kind of person, even if they marry their daughter to a poor sour, they can't let their daughter get involved with that Li Jing?
Li Jing, who suffered from the unjustified disaster, sneezed in the inn.
Zhou Shaojin took the opportunity to send Cheng Chi out of the room to talk to Cheng Chi about Siyilou.
Cheng Chi groaned: "Do you want to know why those things happened in your previous life? β
"Not really, right?" Zhou Shaojin himself was a little unclear, and hesitated, "I also know that it is impossible to investigate the things in my previous life...... It's the heart...... It's a bit complicated...... I want to talk to Uncle Chi. β
