Mother Hu squatted on the side of the soft couch to arrange the brocade quilt for the old lady, and said softly: "The old lady should not be angry with the third lady, the prince will light the lamp on the bank of the Linxi River at night to pray for blessings, and the ladies and ladies are still counting on going with the old lady." ”

The old lady nodded: "This is the right business, you must go." When the time comes, remember to bring the string of Buddhist beads left by the old lady, I didn't choose what to say today, and cursed the descendants of the Jiang family, so I have to make amends to the gods. ”

Mother Hu laughed twice: "What is the old lady talking about?" ”

After a pause, he couldn't help but say again: "The third lady is really, you just gave a few sentences, and she refuted it, and only the old lady will care so much, in fact, the elders train the younger generations, that's nothing." ”

The old lady closed her eyes and nodded: "It's really nothing, but even she Jiang Suxue knows to refute me, can I, a grandmother, know more etiquette than her?" I was also angry at the time, and this smooth passage came out of my mouth. But even if I scolded her and cursed her, Jiang Suxue didn't get angry, and asked back with such a reason, it's really strange......"

Mother Hu also frowned: "Yes, these three young ladies have fallen since the last time, and it seems that the whole person has changed." Although I'm still so stubborn, I'm usually much more polite to people. Could it be that this fall scared the courage and lost the inferior child? ”

The old lady also fell into deep thought, as if she was thinking carefully about Mother Hu's words, and finally sneered: "This country is easy to change, and its nature is difficult to change." The third lady has been in trouble since she was a child, and she will stop for a while, and after a while, she will make mistakes again. More than ten years have passed, and my patience has long been worn out by her, so I won't believe that she will really change sex! ”

"She wants to marry the Shen family, let her marry! After getting married, it was the water that was spilled, and since then, she Jiang Suxue has become a member of the Shen family, and if she wants to make trouble, she will go to the Shen family to make trouble, and my Jiang family will not go to collect the mess for her at that time. ”

After a pause, he added: "The second master is not allowed!" ”

Mother Hu knew that the old lady was starting to get angry again, and she responded again and again.

The old lady said angrily, and when she was tired, she lay down and squinted to rest.

It rained in the afternoon, but because the wind blew strongly, the dark cloud on the top of Jingshi was quickly blown away, and within half an hour, the rain stopped.

The second wife lay down for a while and then hurriedly got up, instructed Pearl and Xixiang to prepare the incense burner and hot water, and after cleaning and burning incense, she sat leisurely in front of the mirror and began to make up.

Pearl finished drawing her eyebrows, looked at it cautiously, and asked lightly, "Is the second wife satisfied?" ”

As he spoke, he brought the bronze mirror closer to the second wife.

The second wife took a detailed look at the bronze mirror, and with a sigh, Pearl dared to continue to apply fat powder.

"This copper dai, you can only draw such eyebrows, can you see the second lady's eyebrows?" After a pause, the second wife suddenly said again.

Pearl was a little stunned, glanced at Xixiang, who was combing the second wife's hair, and replied softly: "Small...... The small one served around the second wife, and as for the second lady, she didn't look carefully. ”

The second wife closed her eyes and let out a sneer: "She used Luozidai." In this Jiang Mansion, where will there be a snail Dai? ”

Pearl and Xixiang looked at each other, but neither dared to answer.

Luozidai is rare and expensive, and Jiang Mansion naturally does not have it, but the second lady got it, presumably the eldest lady has someone who knows her well in the palace.

Pearl and Xixiang knew that the second wife and the eldest lady had always been at odds, so they naturally didn't dare to say more about this matter. They were silent, and the second wife did not ask any more questions.

"Tonight's Linxi River blessing can only be done by the ladies of the dignitaries." The second wife glanced at the bronze mirror and instructed Xi Xiang, "Take off this Yingluo hairpin and replace it with the comb grate with red coral beads engraved with a string of branches and lotus patterns." ”

Xixiang nodded.

Pearl had already put on her makeup, and when she raised her eyes to see the red coral grate on Liuyun's bun, she couldn't help but praise: "Such a rich red can show the charm of the second wife the most." Coupled with this alizarin red veil, it is really good-looking. ”

The second lady closed her eyes smugly and smiled.

Xixiang also smiled and said: "Such a luxurious red can only be worn by the second wife, even if Aunt Zhao is a few years younger, she can't compare to it after all." ”

The concubine can't wear red, and Xi Xiang thought that this must be the right place.

Aunt Zhao is the biological mother of Brother Kun and Miss Five, and the second master had no intention of accepting an aunt, but the eldest lady couldn't give birth to a son, and the eldest lady accepted two aunts one after another, and the old lady felt awkward in her heart, so she proposed to let the second master accept one. The second wife was extremely dissatisfied when she heard this, but she didn't dare to say it.

Although this matter was delayed for a while, in the end, the second master still obeyed the old lady and brought Aunt Zhao in. Aunt Zhao was young and beautiful, and she was pregnant with the fifth lady less than half a year after entering the door, and later gave birth to the third master, Brother Kun, for the second master.

Aunt Zhao is humble and doesn't cause trouble, the old lady likes it too, and she looks at Brother Kun's face, so she should give Aunt Zhao a little bit.

The second wife was kind to Aunt Zhao on the surface, but she looked down on her very much in her heart. Fortunately, Aunt Zhao is very observant of her duties, and the second wife is at most sullen in her heart, so she won't embarrass her much.

Hearing the maids around her go out of their way to praise themselves and demean Aunt Zhao, the second wife was naturally proud in her heart.

After thinking about it, he frowned again: "I will not talk about these words in the future, why do I need to be more serious with an aunt?" ”

Xixiang nodded hurriedly when she heard this: "Yes, yes, the little one remembers." ”

After finishing the makeup, the second lady got up elegantly and shook the alizarin red placket, thought of something, and suddenly said: "The third lady has a strange temper recently, remember to pay more attention." After all, she is a girl who is about to get married, and she must not go wrong again, which makes the second master feel uneasy. ”

Pearl nodded, naturally knowing the meaning of the second lady's attention, after a pause, she couldn't help but say: "Second wife, the maids and servants in the house all said that the third lady has changed a little since she fell last time, could it be that she wants to please the old lady, so that the old lady can prepare some dowry for her?" ”

When the second wife heard this, her face suddenly sank: "Who did you listen to this?" ”

Pearl lowered her voice: "Everyone in the house is saying this." What do you think, second wife? ”

The second lady's eyebrows are tightened, although the old lady doesn't like Jiang Suxue, but there is still a second master in the middle, if the old lady's heart is soft, and the second master says that again, won't the old lady really give Jiang Suxue more dowry?

There are still four and six young ladies behind this, Jiang Suxue takes one more point, and this Jiang Mansion will have one less point. Jiang Suxue has been arrogant in Jiang Mansion for more than ten years, and at this time, she doesn't want to snatch meat from her mouth to eat!

Her eyebrows sank, and the second lady sat down, pretending to be worried, and said, "The people in this house are really idle, what are you doing chewing these tongues?" If it reached the old lady's ears, she would be angry again. ”

Pearl rolled her eyes, understood the meaning of the second wife's words, and said with a smile on the side: "There are hundreds of mouths in the house, who has the ability to block them one by one?" Maybe one day it will reach the old lady's ears. ”

The second wife chuckled and sighed: "That's also true." ”

Pearl and Xixiang both understood what the second wife meant, that is, they wanted them to secretly add some ingredients, and then let out the words, the old lady heard this, Jiang Suxue's little abacus was in vain.

I have heard that Shen Ergongzi is a dutiful son, and with Jiang Suxue's temper, when she gets married, she will definitely make her mother-in-law's chickens and dogs jump. Even if the second son of Shen didn't dare to embarrass her because of the Jiang family's face, it would never be possible to give her a good look again.

The second wife looked at the bronze mirror, smiled coldly, and said in her heart: Feng's, Feng's, have you seen it all? Your precious daughter's arrogant days are coming to an end! In the second half of her life, she will have countless grievances and bitterness, a thousand times more than the pain you brought me back then, ten thousand times!
