Chapter 051: Take the initiative to ask for peace (ask for the first order)
But Jiang Jingxuan is inevitably too bad at speaking.
Su Xue only woke up the second wife the day before yesterday, and now Jingxuan is using a dead horse as an analogy.
What is it really not good to say, but to scold your own mother?
And Jingxuan was still proud, not aware of her gaffe at all.
The second wife and the sixth lady were shocked when they heard this "dead horse", but when they saw that the old lady didn't say anything, they didn't dare to say more.
Su Xue couldn't help but secretly think, this fourth young lady is really capable of just talking.
But since Jingxuan said it in front of everyone, Su Xue also pushed the boat down.
She glanced at Jingxuan, turned around and took the old lady's hand and said, "After the fourth sister returns home, she will be busy copying the confession five hundred times, and she has no time to walk with her grandmother." Su Xue couldn't bear to watch her grandmother stay awake at night, so when she went back to the house, she asked Hu's mother carefully, prescribed a prescription, and then her grandmother decided whether to take it or not, is this okay? ”
As soon as Jingxuan heard the five hundred confessions, her face immediately turned green.
After hearing this, the old lady raised her head and smiled twice: "If it could really be cured, grandmother would have been cured a long time ago." But Sister Xue'er, your filial piety is rare, as for whether you can open a prescription, let's wait until you return home. ”
Su Xue smiled and nodded.
Jingxuan glared at Su Xue indignantly, and simply turned her face to open the sedan curtain to look outside.
The carriage was still not moving fast, and it arrived at Jiangfu in the evening.
The ladies and ladies sat in the carriage for a day, but they seemed to be more tired than the people who were hurrying on the way, and when they got out of the carriage, they went back to their houses to freshen up and rest.
Qianrou learned that the old lady was going to return home today, but Su Xue and Miaomeng still didn't come back to exchange with her. She became more and more anxious in her heart, and even prepared to be punished.
I faintly heard the bustle outside. Qianrou knew that it was the old lady who had returned.
The last glimmer of hope in her heart was shattered. He took a deep breath nervously, straightened his clothes, and prepared to take the initiative to ask the old lady for his guilt.
But as soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw Su Xue and Miaomeng coming over unhurriedly.
Qianrou was stunned, and the pestle was in place.
Miaomeng trotted up happily, took Qianrou's hand and said it's okay, it's okay, it's all right.
Watching Miaomeng chirp like a magpie and tell Qianrou about the things she encountered in Beijing this time, Su Xue couldn't help but smile and said, "Seeing that you are so energetic, I think you are already well." ”
As soon as Miaomu heard this. Excited again, he took Qianrou's hand and hurriedly said: "Also, this time the young lady is very angry, she actually prescribed a miracle medicine prescription and woke up the second wife!" ”
The tea that Su Xue had just drunk almost squirted out, and she hurriedly stopped drinking: "Wonderful dream? ”
Miaomeng and Qianrou were stunned.
Su Xue put the tea cup down, and couldn't wait to step forward and knock Miaomeng's head hard.
Miaomeng paused for a while, then reacted and covered her mouth hard: "Don't say anything about the little one!" ”
Su Xue sighed. glanced at Qianrou, frowned again and said to Miaomeng: "It's not that I won't say it, but I want to completely rot this matter in my stomach, this has never happened at all." ”
Miaomeng covered her mouth and nodded vigorously.
Qianrou was so nervous when she saw Miaomeng. I didn't ask much.
Many things, those who don't know are more lucky. This point Qianrou knows best in her heart, just like the third lady who met a gangster on the way up the mountain.
If you can choose. Qianrou also wants to be an uninformed, so that it will be easier. No baggage.
Like what Su Xue encountered last time, the matter of the second wife was also regarded as taboo by the house. None of the ladies and maids who had returned from Jingshi dared to mention it again. Even the eldest lady's last trouble, only the old lady and Mother Hu and Mother Yan knew about it, and even the second lady didn't know about it.
At that time, the maids who could enter the second wife's room muttered in private that the third lady knew how to disambiguate the yellow technique, but they were also quite careful and didn't dare to talk nonsense, so they didn't make any waves.
This matter can be regarded as the end of the matter.
The autumn breeze is getting cooler, and the ordinary thin jacket can no longer keep out the cold, Qianrou took a rabbit down piping placket, looked outside, and said: "The weather is cool fast this year, Miss try this, it's warmer." ”
Su Xue nodded, got dressed and was about to go out, but suddenly paused again and asked, "Hasn't the second master returned to Jizhou yet?" ”
Qianrou shook her head and asked again, "Miss is in trouble?" ”
Su Xue didn't answer, but continued to walk out, walked through the flower hall, and then murmured, "I heard that the second miss and Chen Gongzi will see each other in seven days." ”
"Hmm." Qianrou nodded slightly, thought of something, and asked, "Miss is worried that the second master will object?" ”
Su Xue stopped, raised her eyes to look at the eaves in the distance, and said slowly: "Actually, it's okay to oppose it." He stood up to stop me, and I had a chance to convince him. ”
Qianrou frowned, not quite understanding what Miss meant.
Last time, Shen Gongzi came to the house to see Miss, wasn't Miss also happy? Although Miss likes Shen Gongzi, but the Shen family has no power in the end, after Miss marries, doesn't she still have to rely on the Jiang family and the second master?
In this case, why bother to disobey the second master for the sake of the big house?
Qianrou couldn't figure out Su Xue's thoughts, if it was in the past, she would only think that Miss was acting rashly and didn't listen to advice.
But now, she always felt that the young lady must have a reason for doing this, but she couldn't figure it out, let alone ask.
Qianrou is a quiet maid, not as straightforward as Miaomeng.
To say, Su Xue actually prefers Miaomeng's temperament, but this time she was going to ask the old lady to say goodbye, and she finally chose to let Qianrou accompany her.
When they came to the outside of the old lady's house, Qianrou wanted to go up and open the curtain, but was stopped by Su Xue, she hurriedly retreated, and stood outside with Su Xue to wait.
Su Xue turned her face slightly and looked inside through the tassel curtain.
There is an antique Nanmu Babao Pavilion in the house, and the old lady sits on the soft chair next to the Babao Pavilion and closes her eyes to recuperate, and there are two maids beside her, who are busy combing the old lady's hair.
Su Xue retracted her gaze, thinking that the old lady was not sleeping well, and she must be in poor spirits when she got up in the morning, so it was safer for her to wait outside.
It just so happened that Mother Hu came over with a pure copper basin, and when she saw Su Xue standing outside, she first frowned suspiciously, and then smiled knowingly. bowed his head to Su Xue, and gently lifted the curtain and walked in.
The copper basin carried by Hu's mother contained warm water and a few roses floating on it, which was used by the old lady to soak her hands.
The old lady seemed to be still in a fugue, and Mama Hu put the copper basin on the low table in front of her and took the old lady's hand and put it in.
After about half an hour, the old lady frowned, and said, "It's cold." ”
With that, he lifted his hand out of the water.
Mother Hu hurriedly removed the copper basin and took a towel to wipe the old lady's hands.
"Old lady, the third lady is here." After wiping her hands, Hu's mother whispered.
The old lady opened her tired eyes, looked inside the room, frowned and said in a muffled voice, "Third Miss? Where? ”
"I'm waiting outside, I guess I'm afraid of disturbing you." Hu's mother looked over there and added, "I've been waiting for a while." ”
The old lady also looked in the direction, and sure enough, she saw Su Xue's figure.
She quickly sat up straight, poked her head and said, "What are you doing standing there?" Go and call her in. ”
Mother Hu nodded, walked over to open the curtain and invited Su Xue in.
Su Xue straightened the hem of her skirt and walked in, but before she could get closer, she saw the old lady smiling and stretching out her hand.
Su Xue also smiled happily, stopped when she walked three steps away from the old lady, put her hands on her right waist, bent forward, bent her legs slightly, and said softly: "Granddaughter greets grandmother." ”
This morning she said that she was going to say hello to the old lady, Qianrou and Miaomeng were surprised, and later learned that this third lady had never taken the initiative to say hello to the old lady before.
Before going out, Qianrou and Miaomeng also deliberately demonstrated it in front of her several times, and they were afraid that something would go wrong when she came here.
In fact, such a simple greeting is not difficult for her, she has been here for several days, and she sees the ladies on weekdays, and the maids are respectful.
After being exposed to it in this way, it is not difficult to learn what to do on what occasion.
"You used to be the most sleepy, and you got up so early today?" The old lady held out her hand and motioned for her to come closer.
Su Xue paused for a moment, looked up and saw that the old lady's expression was not different, then walked to the old lady's side with a smile and said, "Su Xue is worried that her grandmother is not sleeping well, so she herself is not sleeping well, both horizontally and vertically, so I simply came to see my grandmother earlier." But who knew that Su Xueren was here, and my grandmother didn't forget to remember Su Xue's snooze. ”
The old lady patted the back of Su Xue's hand and laughed: "Is this blaming grandmother?" Okay, okay, Sister Xue has changed all those problems, and grandmother won't worry about it! ”
Su Xue also held the old lady's hand and laughed.
Now that she was getting closer, she took a closer look at the old lady, and although she was smiling heartily, her complexion was still not very good.
"Grandmother is so happy, you want to have a good rest last night?"
Su Xue's voice was very soft, because even she felt that she had no confidence in saying this, the old lady's complexion, how could she be well-rested?
As soon as this was mentioned, the old lady was silent, and Hu's mother explained: "It's cool this day, but last night there was a strong wind, and the old lady became more and more difficult to sleep, and she shouted that her brain hurt ......."
After Mother Hu's words, the old lady frowned, and it seemed that her brain was starting to hurt again.
Mother Hu was also anxious, and while explaining with a bitter face, she stepped forward to rub the old lady's temples gently.
Su Xue frowned and looked at the old lady, paused for a while, and asked, "Grandmother...... Are you most afraid of windy and rainy days? ”
Su Xue said calmly, but the old lady was stunned, and nodded again and again: "That's it!" As soon as the night was windy and rainy, I was restless, I was obviously very tired, but I couldn't sleep, Yan zhòng buzzed in my ears when I got up, and my brain hurt terribly......"
The more the old lady spoke, the more excited she became, as if she wanted to pour out all the sins she had suffered over the years.
Su Xue couldn't bear to see the old lady like this, so she quickly squatted down and lay on the old lady's lap, holding her hand comfortingly. (To be continued......)
