Chapter 114: Fang's Clan Submits to Softness
The marriage of a concubine, the second wife is naturally clear in her heart.
She worked so hard, it was nothing more than that she didn't want this marriage to go wrong, only the sooner Miss Fifth got married, the sooner Jingxuan's side could die.
But Rao is already simple and simple, and it took nearly half a month to take care of the dowry and trivial matters before marriage.
At the end of winter, the Shen family sent a matchmaker to lead people to the door and bring gifts to the day.
This time, even the second master and the old lady came to the front hall together.
The matchmaker handed a red note to the second master, with the specific marriage matters and wedding date written on it.
The second master looked at it, and the Shen family set the date on the eighteenth day of the lunar month, and I was afraid that it would be calculated and calculated, so they chose an auspicious day before the end of the year.
The second old man pondered for a while, did not speak, and handed the red note in his hand to the old lady.
The old lady only glanced at it lightly, and made sure that it was not placed in the New Year, so she had no opinion and nodded.
After sending off the matchmaker, the second wife was overjoyed and kept singing auspicious words.
Aunt Zhao on the side snorted a few times and cried softly.
The second lady glanced at Aunt Zhao, ignored it, and continued to talk with the second master and the old lady, but unexpectedly, the expressions of the second master and the old lady also became heavy.
The corners of the second wife's mouth stiffened, and she glanced at Aunt Zhao hesitantly, and she couldn't wait to step forward and slap her two big ears to see if she still had the courage to cry!
But now that the second old man and the old lady are here, the second wife has to endure it, and turned her head and instructed Qin's mother: "Go get a towel and wipe Aunt Zhao's face." ”
Mother Qin left in response.
Aunt Zhao took the towel, but instead of stopping. Instead, he cried more presumptuously.
The second wife finally couldn't help it. frowned and reprimanded: "Good happy event." What are you crying and crying about? ”
As he spoke, he pretended to look at the old lady with shame and said, "It's strange that my daughter-in-law is not strict in discipline on weekdays, and let her lose her temper like this, which annoys your mother." ”
After saying this decent word, he turned his face sideways, turned his head and scolded Aunt Zhao: "What do you look like if you put a resentful face in front of the old lady all day long?" Don't hurry down yet! ”
Aunt Zhao was yelled at twice, and her tears couldn't be stopped. But he had to bite his lower lip and not make a sound, saluted the second master and the old lady, and hurriedly retreated.
The old lady closed her eyes and said slowly: "When I sent Yuru away a few days ago, I felt uncomfortable in my heart, not to mention that this is the first time I have married a girl in the second room, she is the biological mother of the fifth girl, and it is inevitable that she will be reluctant, so you don't have to blame her." ”
The second wife squeezed her eyebrows after hearing this, doesn't it seem that she is hard-hearted?
Thinking about it, he rolled his eyes. Hurriedly his nose was sour, and he choked up: "Mother's words can be said to be in the daughter-in-law's heart!" Who would be willing to marry a girl? The daughter-in-law also endured the sourness in her heart. I didn't dare to show it, I was afraid that my mother would see it, and I would feel uncomfortable together......"
As he spoke, he also pulled out a silk silk and began to wipe away his tears.
Mother Qin hurriedly comforted softly on the side.
The old lady sighed, walked back with a cane, and the second lady also turned around, and the second lady immediately stopped her tears when she saw this, and followed the old lady to hug her.
"My daughter-in-law has been working the marriage of the five girls these days, and she can't go to her mother's room every day to say hello, but now that she looks good at her mother's face, she doesn't have any more headaches and insomnia?" The second wife simply diverted the topic and turned to care about the old lady's body.
When the second old man heard this, he also took a closer look at the old lady, and said happily: "Mother's complexion is indeed much better, it seems that Su Xue went to press her mother's head every night, which is quite effective." ”
The old lady nodded happily, and said in a long tone: "Yes, it is indeed thanks to Sister Xue'er." ”
The second wife saw that she didn't lead the right way, so she flattered Jiang Suxue in vain, and said with a smile: "The fifth girl's affairs here are also in order, and the daughter-in-law and Jingxuan can accompany their mother for a walk in the future." ”
In the past, the old lady liked Jingxuan to accompany her for a walk, but now her face changed, and she said, "What are you going to do in this cold day?" Wasn't Jingxuan locked in the house by you and not allowed to come out? It's idle here, are you willing to let her come out again? ”
The old lady said this with obvious reproach.
When she was busy with Miss Wu and Lu before, Jingxuan hid in the room, and even the eldest aunt came back and never came out to visit, so the old lady naturally had a lot of complaints.
When the second wife heard this, she hurriedly explained: "Mother thinks too much, how can it be that the daughter-in-law locks her up and doesn't let her come out?" No, last time, Sister Xue dragged Jingxuan to Heting to see the son of the Shen family, Jingxuan is a girl's family, how can she want to go out and be looked at by other men? But Sister Xue didn't want to go alone, Jingxuan valued sisterhood again, gritted her teeth and went with her, who expected that it snowed heavily in the east of the city, and after Jingxuan came back, she was infected with a little cold. ”
"Wind chill?" The old lady paused, her eyes became anxious, "Why didn't you talk earlier?" ”
Seeing that the old lady was still nervous, the second wife breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, frowned and said aggrievedly: "The daughter-in-law was also in a hurry at the time, Jingxuan and Wanyue have been cold since childhood, and then contracted the wind cold, it will not be good if they fall ill." But some time ago, old lady, you were worried about Sister Xue'er's divorce, the fifth girl and Lu, and the marriage with the Shen family, and you were already too busy to turn around, how dare your daughter-in-law use Jingxuan's matter to make trouble? I had to hide it for the time being. But fortunately, Jingxuan often walks with her mother, and her body is also good, and she has improved a lot after drinking a few doses of medicine. ”
The second wife seemed to be talking about sad things, and she looked aggrieved.
The old lady also felt a little guilty when she heard this, and said, "I'm also busy and dizzy here, and I don't care about Sister Xuan." Since it's okay, it's good to give birth. ”
He turned his head to Mother Hu and instructed: "Now that the sky is getting colder and colder, send the fine silver silk carbon in my room to Sister Xuan's room, she is cold, and she can't freeze anymore." ”
Mother Hu bowed her head and responded.
The second wife secretly narrowed her eyes and couldn't help but straighten her back.
After taking a few more steps, the second old man accused him and said that he would go back to Rongde Hall to deal with affairs first, and the old lady did not force him to stay, and waved his hand to respond.
The second master had just walked for a while, and the eldest master came over again, and his steps were a little anxious.
The old lady saw that the eldest man was afraid that he had something important to talk about. I was ready to listen carefully.
The eldest lord approached. But I didn't rush to say it. His face pale as if he couldn't speak.
In the end, it was the old lady who opened her mouth and asked, "Didn't you ask you to pick up the second girl back?" Why hasn't there been any movement yet? ”
When the eldest lord heard this, he took a breath and said, "Mother, my son came here for this matter. ”
"Well, let's talk about it."
The old lady glanced at him, and her tone was already a little displeased.
I knew he was here for this. What is unpleasant is that how could her eldest son be born so cowardly and incompetent, even Fang Lian, a stupid woman with no brains, can help it.
The eldest lord paused for a while before he said, "I also sent someone to pick it up before, but she just refused to do so." The son knew that she was scared in her heart, afraid that Yan Yun would be taken away, and the Jiang family would not care about her even more. ”
"So you took this soft and wanted to go and get them both back?" The old lady interrupted him with a hard cane.
The eldest man hurriedly said, "How can my son be like that? At first, she was pulling to leave, but she was not convinced. The son will never regress! ”
The old lady still looked at the old man with a hesitant face, listening to the meaning of this. Fang Lian's side has already softened?
"What if she relents? What kind of place do you think of this Jiangfu? She cried and pulled away by herself, and now she wants to come back, but it's not so easy! The old lady still kept her voice calm.
But after all, she is the eldest daughter-in-law of Jiang Mansion, and she always has to return home after a lot of noise, if Jiang Mansion pulls down her face and blocks her out of the door, she will end up with a no.
The old lady understood this truth, and knew that it was only a matter of time before Fang Lian came back, but if she came back comfortably or not, it would be up to her to decide here.
She had already begun to wonder in her heart how to give birth to this wicked woman!
Unexpectedly, the eldest master said again: "Yan Yun has already handed over a letter, which says that the Fang family and she are willing to come back, and they are willing to ask your mother for guilt, so the son plans to ...... I'm going to send someone to fetch them back. ”
The old lady stared at her after hearing this: "She caused a farce by herself, and she wants us to end it for her?" Her Fang family is rich, why don't you send her back in a canopy sedan chair on this opportunity, just so that she can show off in front of us! ”
The eldest lord knew that the old lady was talking about cool things, so he smiled awkwardly and said, "Mother, why do you bother to worry too much about her?" Our Jiangfu is a noble family, and we can't lose our sense of proportion, just go and pick it up, it's okay. In fact, in the final analysis, she is a little sideways, and her son will discipline her more in the future, and if this stalemate continues, it will not be good for others or herself. And now that the New Year is approaching, is it possible to let Yanyun celebrate the New Year in the Fang family? ”
The eldest man explained a lot, but he was afraid that the old lady would be angry when she heard this mentions.
But he was so cautious, the old lady was still angry, pointed at him and said angrily: "You, you, your ears are so soft that you can twist them around!" If I want to pick you up, why do you want to ask me this old woman? If I can't say no, will you be able to say yes? ”
The old man had expected that the old lady would be unhappy, but he didn't expect such a big fire this time.
was said to have soft ears, he was also a little embarrassed, and looked at the second wife on the side who wanted to ask for some help, but the second wife immediately looked away, looking like she didn't care about anything, and hung high.
The eldest lord frowned anxiously, so he had no choice but to say, "The son knows that his mother doesn't like the Fang family, but Yanyun is the daughter of the Jiang family, so she can't let her return home......"
The old lady glared at the old man with hatred, snorted heavily, lifted her steps and walked away quickly.
The eldest master stopped in place, pinched a handful of sweat, turned his head and instructed Steward Li to prepare the carriage and horses and go to Suizhou to pick up people.
When the news of the eldest lord sending someone to pick up the eldest lady came, Su Xue was reading a book in the room.
The old lady's body is getting better day by day, and the people in the house seem to know that she knows how to use medicine, so Su Xue didn't hide it anymore, and asked Miaomeng to ask Hu's mother to borrow a medical book to read.
Somehow, this matter quickly spread to the second master, and the next day Narcissus sent a stack of various ancient books, most of which were records of medical herbs.
can turn to the real ancient medical books, Su Xue naturally can't put it down. (To be continued......)
