Chapter 175: It's overcast
Mother Hu lowered her head and didn't dare to say more.
Looking at the posture of the eldest lady, it is clear that she is coming for the old lady.
Although the old lady also said that she would respond to the request of the eldest lady, according to the current shape, the eldest lady is so arrogant, there is a sense that you have to agree if you don't agree.
The old lady was silent for a while, and then suddenly smiled again: "She is pregnant, what if I will settle for it?" She doesn't come, I do. ”
As he spoke, he turned his head and instructed Hu's mother: "You hurry up and inquire whether the eldest aunt has attacked the lord, and ask the title and fief together." ”
She can't let a little girl fool her!
Hu's mother was not ambiguous, and she came back to tell the results after a while.
"The eldest aunt was ordered to attack the lord the day before yesterday, and the title is the Marquis of Xinning, and the fief is still the fief of the Marquis of Xin'an, that is, south of the same state." Although there was no one else in the room, Hu's mother still kept her voice very low.
The old lady couldn't help but sit up with a smile after hearing this, and Mother Hu hurriedly grabbed the coral red ice cracked brocade pillow on the side and gave it to the old lady to lean on her back.
"The end is holding chicken feathers as an arrow!" The old lady found a comfortable posture and continued to ridicule, "I thought it was amazing, but in the end it was still a virtual marquis!" ”
Hu's mother didn't smile.
"The fief is south of the same state...... Don't make people laugh out of their teeth! The old lady couldn't help but laugh again.
"The poor and remote land in Tongzhou, and then to the south is the barbarian land, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and almost no one dares to take care of that place. The emperor also remembered the merits of the Marquis of Xin'an during his lifetime. Just a little bit of a fief that gave a piece of chicken ribs. I didn't expect that my son's life would be a worthless one, and it would be so long before the saint allowed him to attack the knighthood, but this fief is still a little bit of his father's generation...... Don't you understand the meaning of the Holy One? The right is just to comfort him, and only the eldest lady can afford to look down on herself! ”
After the old lady finished speaking, she lazily raised her back and motioned to Mother Hu to remove the pillow to serve her for a nap.
Sure enough, it's right to keep an eye on it, otherwise you will really be scared by a paper tiger.
After knowing the background of the eldest lady and aunt. The old lady was much more relaxed.
After resting, he got up slowly and walked towards the eldest lady's room.
When I went, the eldest lady and dressed neatly sat outside waiting, and when she saw the old lady coming, she stepped forward to squat and salute.
Xu didn't expect the old lady to be so late, and she was quite unhappy on her face.
The old lady didn't see the stinky face at all, and only sat down to say a few words.
In the end, the eldest lady couldn't help it, and asked straight to the point: "Didn't grandmother say that she would be able to bring her mother back in a month?" Seeing that it will be a month soon, it is better to take Brother Jun back with him. ”
The old lady took a sip of ginseng tea and said slowly, "The eldest lady and the second lady can take it back." But Brother Jun, it's not good. ”
The eldest lady saw that the old lady still didn't allow it. Suddenly his anger soared, and his voice became tougher: "Didn't Brother Jun do something that is intolerable to provoke grandmother to be so angry?" ”
The old lady was not in a hurry, she only shook her head and said, "It may not be a bad thing for him to let Brother Jun be punished this time." He wants to take a maid in one room, but it's fine, but why does he look at the maid in the second wife's house? ”
After hearing this, the eldest lady shook her eyebrows and sneered: "What happened to the maid in the second aunt's room?" Aren't they all slaves left and right? Isn't slavery just for the master? What's not right? ”
The old lady's face was slightly uncertain.
This eldest lady didn't get a good upbringing when she was really a girl, and she made it so clear that she couldn't figure out the trick.
Although the big house and the second room are not separated, they are very clear in many things.
Brother Jun did this, and a discerning person would know at a glance that he had an intention, otherwise there were so many maids in the big house, and they were dangling under his nose all the time, why didn't he care?
The old lady was silent, and the eldest lady had to soften her voice and said, "I also know my grandmother's scruples, if my grandmother thinks it's inappropriate, then why don't I ask the second aunt what she means?" If the second aunt should come down, won't it be done? ”
said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and as soon as the eldest lady's words fell, the magpie harrier outside the curtain shouted: "The second wife is here." ”
The old lady was slightly startled, isn't this second wife so sick that she can't get out of bed? How did you suddenly come back to life?
The corners of the old lady's mouth unconsciously pulled down.
The second wife walked in with the help of Qin's mother, wearing a light blue plain coat, and her face was still haggard.
Anyway, there was still a little bit of appearance, and the old lady relaxed her eyebrows, and only said, "Aren't you sick?" Why is it not good to recuperate? ”
As soon as the eldest lady saw the second wife, she couldn't help but sit up straighter.
In the past, when she was still a daughter, the second wife had always pressed their big house, and now she is pretending to be sick, what are you having?
But thinking of Brother Jun'er's matter, the eldest lady gathered the hostility in her eyes again, turned around and told the magpie harrier to go and get a soft cushion for the second wife.
"Isn't the second aunt always neat and bone? Why did you get sick too? But be careful. ”
Seeing that the eldest lady was so polite, the second lady also smiled, bowed to the old lady, and then sat down, and said: "It's strange that the spring was cold a while ago, I didn't pay attention, and I got a little cold, I thought that this trip was more than half a month, but when I heard that Sister Ling was back, I suddenly came to the strength, even if I gritted my teeth, I had to get out of bed to take a look." ”
The eldest lady smiled meaningfully at the second wife: "Look at what the second aunt said, it seems like my sin, causing the second aunt to come over sick!" ”
"Where, where? Sister Ling, you have a little marquis in your belly, how dare you talk about the sins of the little marquis? It's also that the sister-in-law is not in the house, so the second aunt wants to come over and take a look at you. ”
After the second wife finished speaking, she turned around and glanced at Qin's mother. Mother Qin immediately handed over a brocade box, and the second lady got up with a smile and handed it to the eldest lady, saying, "The second aunt only came here now, but she can't lack her heart." ”
The eldest lady opened it and took a look. I can't help but be overjoyed. Inside the brocade box is a red gold pendant with a long-life lock.
"Let's talk about it. Or the second aunt is the most hearted! ”
The two exchanged warm greetings again, and their respective positions were already very clear.
The old lady was silent, and took the lead in saying bluntly to the second wife: "Since Shuning and you are here, then I will tell everything clearly." What does Sister Ling mean, do you think you can take a room for Brother Jun, I don't disagree here, but the maid is yours, I still have to ask what you mean. ”
The second wife's eyes rolled. Sure enough, the old lady's severe punishment was a pretense before, but now as soon as the eldest lady came back, she immediately let go of her mouth and pretended to ask her opinion.
What else could she have to say? Of course yes! She wouldn't be stupid enough to offend the Hou Mansion!
After thinking about it, he also said with a sad face: "Actually, it's not the second master who I'm angry about, but my dead maid who has no eyes!" Such a big thing actually dared to hide it from me, my daughter-in-law really never dreamed that the pearl would be looked down upon by the second master, otherwise as long as the second master said a word, I would have given him the pearl. How can there be any reason to disagree? ”
After listening to this, the eldest lady smiled with satisfaction.
The second wife said a long time. Feeling weak, he coughed while covering his heart, and said again: "What can I do if I just promise it now?" The second master went to the ancestral house, I'm afraid that I have broken my mind, not to mention my maid is also ......"
Two days ago, the second wife also asked Qin's mother to go to the firewood room to have a look, but the old lady ordered someone to guard it, and no one was allowed to approach. Seeing the old lady so hard-hearted, Pearl either froze to death or starved to death.
Unexpectedly, the old lady waved her hand and said: "You don't have to worry about that girl, as long as you agree, I will go to pick up Brother Jun back, Brother Jun is willing, so I will take her away." ”
The eldest lady covered her mouth and smiled, nodded and said, "Grandmother and second aunt thought like this earlier, and Brother Jun didn't have to suffer that sin." If it's just that this maid has thoughts that she shouldn't have, and wants to charm her master to climb the high branches, it really can't be kept. But if the master also has this heart, that's another matter. The left and right are just a room maid, and it is actually a good thing to have a caring person to serve by Brother Jun'er! ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the second wife: "Second aunt, do you say it?" ”
The second wife smiled dryly and nodded, but she was a little suspicious in her heart.
This side was finalized, and the old lady ordered someone to pick up people from the ancestral house.
The eldest lady's gaze suddenly softened a lot, and she no longer spoke to the old lady with thorns.
The second wife sat uneasily for a while, and then got up and went back to the room with a dizziness.
It wasn't until I went back to the room and calmed down that I suddenly figured it out.
With the temperament of an old lady, if you want to deal with a maid, why do you have to detour? On the surface, he was stern to lock up the pearls, but in fact, he was simply waiting.
Looking at Fang Cai's attitude again, it seems that the old lady didn't plan to really send out the pearls and Jun Ge'er at all, they were just making a show!
The second wife recalled the cause and effect layer by layer, and couldn't help but tremble with anger.
This dead old woman is really indistinguishable, and even she has to calculate!
Since the old lady wants to curry favor with the Hou Mansion by herself, wouldn't it be okay to avoid those false actions and send the pearl to the second master's house directly?
even pretended to be angry and took back her right to be in charge.
At this moment, the eldest lady brought the eldest aunt to the door to ask the teacher, and the old lady was fine, turned her head and poured dirty water on her, saying that she should nod her head and get down.
But when did the dead old woman give her a chance to say yes or not?
Looking at the eyes of the eldest lady at the end, it was obvious that she was a little resentful.
But I don't know if the eldest lady's wooden fish head can figure out the truth...... In fact, both of them were yin by the old lady!
The more the second wife thought about it, the more angry she became, clenching her fists and slamming them on the table, so frightened that Mother Qin on the side couldn't help but take a step back.
The second wife stared coldly at the rhombic bronze mirror on the dressing table, and said hatefully: "This ginger is really still old and spicy!" But don't forget, we're all in the same boat, and if you count me, will you be fine? (To be continued......)
