93. Chapter 93
Linghu Pingxue saw that her mother was slapped by the old lady, and was scolded by the old lady, and this son stood aside obediently, not daring to make a sound.
On the surface, the Hou Mansion is the mother in charge, but the final decision-making power is always in the hands of the grandmother, and now the grandmother is angry, so Hu Pingxue is also worried that the grandmother will not pay attention to herself in the future, so she can only stand aside and watch, not daring to say more.
The old lady glanced at Linghu Pingxue, although she still felt sorry for this granddaughter, but this time, Linghu Pingxue really disappointed her! There is no comparison, there is no such obvious gap, but now that the fox full moon appears, it suddenly seems that Pingxue is not enough to succeed.
Linghu Pingxue saw that her grandmother's eyes were complex and deep when she looked at her, and she was no longer as firm and undoubted as before, so Linghu Pingxue's heart was cold, and she immediately knelt down.
"Grandmother, the granddaughter is wrong, the granddaughter underestimated the enemy this time, and was framed by Linghu Manyue, the granddaughter really knows that she is wrong, grandmother give the granddaughter another chance." Linghu Pingxue knows that acting is about to be enough, and at the time of crisis, it is the first thing to regain the trust and favor of the old lady, and the rest is not taken care of.
When the second lady saw it, she also knelt down reluctantly.
"Old lady, daughter-in-law also knows that she is wrong. It was the daughter-in-law's fault that she made her own decision without consulting with the old lady this time, and the daughter-in-law would never dare to do it again in the future. Although the second lady said this, she was not convinced in her heart.
The old lady was still angry, but when she saw her favorite granddaughter kneeling on the cold ground crying pear blossoms with rain, the old lady relented for a while, and asked Linghu Pingxue and the second lady to get up with a cold face.
"Alright, I'm not dead yet! Cry what to cry one by one! Pingxue, tell me what's going on? ”
The old lady only knew that Xue Yamei was dead, but she didn't understand how Linghu Pingxue could offend the Queen Mother.
Linghu Pingxue's face turned red, and he hated and feared the scenes that happened in Weiyang Palace.
"Grandmother, it's all Linghu Full Moon who framed me!"
――
Linghu Pingxue naturally didn't say a good word about the full moon, and added fuel to what happened in Weiyang Palace, the more the old lady listened, the more angry she became, but the matter had happened, and now it was useless to be angry again, but the disappointment of the second lady was not a little bit.
"Good, good! See what you're doing? Do you think I've wronged you by slapping you now? "The old lady really hates iron and steel at the moment.
Linghu Full Moon must be eliminated, since she can't pave the way for Pingxue, she can't be left in the Hou Mansion to get in the way. But this lady is so anxious, she dares to kill people in the palace, fortunately, only the queen mother is here today, if the concubine An, who is against the queen mother everywhere, is also there, and then inserts a leg, I am afraid that the two of them will not be able to come back!
"Old lady, daughter-in-law—I know it's wrong." The second lady was at a loss, and she didn't dare to contradict the old lady except to admit her mistakes.
"Now take a green cloud! You buried Cuiyun there for five years, and now you give it back to others! See what you can endure! The old lady squinted at the second lady, and her anger lingered.
At this moment, the voice of looking for my mother sounded outside.
"Old lady, people are coming."
The old lady stopped counting the second lady, and a cold color flashed in her eyes.
"You go to the back room and wait, and you are not allowed to come out without my orders."
"Yes, old lady."
"Yes, grandmother."
Although the second lady and Linghu Pingxue were curious about who came over early in the morning, the old lady ordered, and both of them obediently went into the inner room to wait.
After a while, looking for my mother to lead an old lady in. The second lady looked out through the gap in the window lattice, and saw that the old lady was actually the mother of Xue Zhao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and the second lady couldn't help but be surprised.
"Mother, what's the matter?" Linghu Pingxue lowered her voice and asked in the second lady's ear.
She had seen this old lady once, why did she come? Could it be that the Xue family is suspicious of the Hou Mansion? Do they know that Bai Yu is the mother's person? Thinking of this, Ling Hu Pingxue secretly sweated for his mother.
The second lady also watched with concern, and pricked up her ears to listen to the conversation between the old lady and the old lady of the Xue family.
But seeing that the atmosphere between the old lady and the old lady of the Xue family was harmonious, and it didn't seem like they knew anything, the second lady was faintly relieved.
The old lady of the Xue family only sat for a while before getting up and leaving, and said something like please the old lady has a heart, and the second lady and Ling Huping who listened to it didn't understand in a fog.
The old lady of the Xue family and the old lady are just greeting each other, but if they are just pulling the family routine, how can they come over early in the morning, and besides, the Xue family has just died, why did this old lady run out without staying at home?
The old lady of the Xue family left, and the old lady asked her to find her mother to take the second lady and Linghu Pingxue out.
"Sit down." The old lady's tone was still cold, and the second lady didn't dare to be careless, and after sitting down, she asked cautiously,
"Old lady, why did the old lady of the Xue family come here early in the morning? Is it because of Xue Yamei's matter? ”
The old lady glanced at the second lady and snorted coldly,
"If so, do you still have the life to sit here? Killing people in Weiyang Palace is still the daughter of a court official! You are gambling with the entire Hou Mansion on your own pleasure! As soon as the old lady said this, the second lady pretended to bow her head in shame.
"Old lady, it was true that the daughter-in-law was not thoughtful before, and at that time she just wanted to get rid of the girl quickly, and the daughter-in-law also thought about it, even if Linghu Manyue killed someone, it would not affect the Hou Mansion, because she had just returned to the Hou Mansion for less than a month, and it was a big deal that all the responsibility was pushed to the He family, right?"
The second lady's vicious intentions can be seen.
If it is really Linghu Full Moon who killed people in Weiyang Palace, then the Queen Mother will inevitably blame the Hou Mansion, and then the second lady will say that Linghu Full Moon will come back, and she has always been taught in the He family, and the Hou Mansion originally wanted to pass this daughter out, but it was the He family's final break of the contract that caused today's situation, and when the time came, the Linghu Full Moon was pushed out, and the He family, who had no foundation, had to knock out their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs.
"Humph! The result? Didn't you still get away with that girl! Now her wings are getting stiffer! Look at you again! ”
The old lady has not lost her anger so far, and now she is uncomfortable with how she looks at the second lady.
What the old lady said was that all the mistakes were the daughter-in-law's fault, who would have thought that the stinky girl who came back from the small county town was so capable. The daughter-in-law underestimated her. ”
Hearing her mother say this, Ling Hu Pingxue pursed her lips disdainfully, why did she underestimate her? Dirt buns are dirt buns! These times are just a fluke!
"Do you know that the old lady of the Xue family is not the biological mother of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, so-" The old lady took a sip of tea, slowly put down the white jade cup, and lit up the eyes of the second lady with a word.
"Old lady, so to speak—Xue Yamei is not her own granddaughter anymore?"
"Exactly." The old lady nodded.
Inexplicably, the second lady breathed a sigh of relief. But think about it, what does this have to do with the old lady of the Xue family coming to the old lady?
"The waiter of the Ministry of Rites was actually born to his father and the daughter of a small family, because the woman's family was poor, so she naturally couldn't enter the Xue family, but the old man of the Xue family really liked that son, just in time for the eldest son of the old lady of the Xue family to die, so he took the son outside and went home, only the second son of the Xue family was born to Mrs. Xue."
The old lady is talking about an old story, originally only a few people know the secret of the Xue family, but a few years ago, when the old lady Xue led someone to drive the woman out of Kyoto, she happened to be bumped into by the old lady, the old lady occasionally heard the conversation between the old lady Xue and the woman, although it has been decades, there are grandchildren, but the old lady Xue has been looking for the biological mother of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, but the waiter of the Ministry of Rites hid the woman very well, and the old lady Xue searched for half a lifetime to find it, naturally she wanted the woman to disappear in front of her forever, Good that never comes.
The second lady and Linghu Pingxue were stunned when they heard this, but they didn't expect that the seemingly low-key Xue family still had such a shocking secret.
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites turned out to be not the eldest son of Master Xue.
"Old lady, then Mrs. Xue came this time-" The second lady still didn't understand, the old lady and Mrs. Xue reached a tacit understanding on something, to be precise, the old lady grabbed Mrs. Xue's handle.
The old lady's shrewd eyes flashed with an inevitable sneer, and then she spoke coldly,
"The second son of the Xue family is the biological son of Mrs. Xue, but the only son of the second son is a fool, and now that fool has reached the age of marriage——"
The old lady stopped here and looked at the second lady with gloomy eyes.
"That fool - Xue Qi?" The second lady's eyes suddenly flashed in front of the crazy fool of the Xue family, and her eyes suddenly lit up, and she had to admire the old lady's intentions.
"Yes, since you keep that girl in the way, you won't be able to cure her for a while, marry her to the Xue family, and someone will naturally treat her." The old lady used this trick to kill people with a knife.
The old lady of the Xue family can spend most of her life looking for someone, if the old lady saves her handle and asks her to deal with Linghu Manyue, the old lady of the Xue family must spare no effort, and in the future, Linghu Manyue has an accident in the Xue family, and the people of the Hou Mansion will pick it cleanly. Besides, he married a fool again, and he also relieved the hatred in the old lady's heart!
When Linghu Pingxue heard this, he naturally thought that this was a wonderful method, but-
"Grandmother, the daughter of the Hou Mansion will not marry a fool even if she is not favored, and my father's side - I'm afraid he won't agree." Linghu Pingxue saw that his father felt guilty about Linghu Manyue, so he naturally wanted to find her a good family, not the fool of the Xue family.
"Not now! But if that fool made something in the Hou Mansion - in order to block the mouth of the Youyou, what can't he do? ”
When the old lady said this, she sneered, picked up the white jade cup and took a sip of tea, and the sneer on the corner of her lips lingered for a long time.
The second lady and Linghu Pingxue exchanged glances, and it seemed that they would soon be able to get rid of Linghu Manyue's thorn in the eye! It's up to her to turn over this time!
