Chapter 31: I also turn over old accounts
Mrs. Yan was taken aback, and saw that Hua Qianshu was going to shake out the matter of deducting the master's silver and silver, and hurriedly explained: "It was the old slave who was brave, and when he saw that the mother-in-law in the yard was working hard, he made a harmless joke to Aunt Hua to ask for a reward." ”
The old lady snorted coldly: "Aunt Hua, I'm asking you!"
When the master spoke, it was not a slave's turn to interject, and Mrs. Yan defended herself twice and three times, and the old lady was a little displeased if she lost the rules.
Hua Qianshu said truthfully: "Mama Yan said that according to the traditional rules in the Nishang Pavilion, the aunts have distributed monthly silver, and each person needs to leave five taels as a reward for the rough mother-in-law. Qianshu felt that this move was inappropriate, and the distribution of thirty taels of silver was obviously unfair to our personal girl. So at that time, I argued with reason, and I didn't give a reward, so I felt ashamed, so naturally I didn't dare to ask Mama Yan to arrange for someone to help repair the roof. ”
The old lady immediately understood the mechanism, and smiled coldly at Yan Pozi: "Yan Mama will be generous to others, and take the rewards of several masters to entrap the people below." I never knew that the mother-in-law in this neon dress hall could get such a high reward, and the monthly rules in the house were chicken. ”
Mrs. Yan was shocked, and "poof" knelt on the ground: "The old lady is aware of it, I'm just joking, and I definitely don't dare to commit a crime and cheat a few aunts' money." ”
Hua Qianshu smiled slightly, didn't get to the bottom of it, and patted her heart: "It turns out that Mama Yan is just joking, but I'm too timid and suspicious." Seeing that you treat me differently from other aunts, I thought I had offended you that time. Even Shicai was trapped on the roof, and it was suspected that you ordered someone to remove the ladder. It's simply a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain. ”
After a confession review, it was more like cynicism, and Mrs. Yan's face couldn't help but change several times.
"It's really a great wrong, I respect you as my master, how can I ever feel sorry for you?"
Hua Qianshu stood half-leaning against the walnut, bending the injured leg from beginning to end: "If I don't blame myself and feel guilty now, how can I be so ignorant? I always feel that Mama Yan is targeting me everywhere." Now that I think about it, it was indeed me who was wrong the night before, and I shouldn't have asked Walnut to pour tea in the kitchen so late, which caused Yan Mama to misunderstand and break into the house with people and dogs. Even if you were bitten by that dog, my intestines are blue. ”
The old lady kept silent, listening to Hua Qianshu and Mrs. Yan arguing back and forth.
Yan Pozi's head was already sweating, and she was inward-looking: "Obviously, you want to cover up for the adulterer, and you deliberately let the dog bite me!
"Where is the adulterer?" Hua Qianshu blinked innocently: "If there is really an adulterer hidden in my yard, I can't hide it too late, will I be so stupid to let the walnuts run out to pour tea?" It seems that Mama Yan really misunderstood me, no wonder she broke into my yard last night, and it was a pity that a dog who took care of the yard with rules and regulations." ”
Yan Pozi was immediately speechless by the rebuttal, and pointed at Bang Yun: "Aunt Bang Yun saw it with her own eyes." ”
Hua Qianshu also turned her face to look at Bang Yun, and asked meaningfully: "Is it? Aunt Bang Yun? If you saw it with your own eyes, why didn't you pierce it on the spot?"
Bang Yun is bitter in his heart, if he denies it, he will undoubtedly offend Mama Yan, and he will definitely have his own little shoes to wear in the future, if he says yes, Hua Qianshu clearly wants to expose the fact that he pretended to be a ghost and scared her last night. was known by the old lady, and she was even more finished.
She slurred: "It's true that I saw a figure passing by, but I didn't really see it." ”
Yan Pozi was a little anxious: "Last night, you clearly said that there must be an adulterer hidden in it!"
The old lady glanced at her coldly, and said in a deep voice: "That's enough! Mama Yan, about your own identity, didn't I explain it to you clearly?" Catch the wind and catch the shadows, make something out of nothing, and go to my yard in a while. ”
The voice was particularly harsh and angry.
Mrs. Yan wanted to defend herself, but was glared back by the old lady.
The old lady had already given her enough face in front of several aunts, and she had already been deceived and deceived like this, and she would have been given a hard time.
It can also be seen that the old lady is indeed very important to this Yan mother-in-law.
No wonder Walnut said that Mrs. Yan is the confidant and eyes and ears of the old lady, ordinary small sins are insignificant, and the old lady is at most a few reprimands.
The old lady turned her face and instructed Mama Liang: "Go and interrogate and interrogate, who was so bold to remove Aunt Hua's ladder and hand it over to the mother-in-law in charge of the punishment." ”
Mama Liang's wrist was higher, and she was ordered to go down, and as soon as she asked among several minions, she came back to return to the old lady.
"Old lady Qiyu, I have already asked clearly, it is a little girl who does chores under Aunt Qingyu, and she has been sent over according to your instructions. ”
"Since you have been punished, then it's good, remember to call the doctor over in a while, and show Aunt Hua how the injury is? ”
The old lady spoke with a pleasant face, and Hua Qianshu secretly rejoiced at the same time, but also felt that the old lady was not as authoritarian and unreasonable as she thought in her previous life.
Although it was just perfunctory, and a little girl was caught casually, but it was okay to give himself an explanation.
The old lady sighed leisurely: "In this courtyard, it is really a slave who is not like a slave, and the master is not like a master. ”
Mama Liang smiled and helped her rub her shoulders: "You are old and angry, it's just a trivial matter." ”
Then he raised his face and pointed at a few people: "Why don't you know how to bring a cup of tea to the old lady?"
Mrs. Yan hurriedly ordered: "Go quickly, go quickly!"
Bingqing, the little girl in front of Luan Ying, was trained to be the most eye-catching, grabbed the errand, and rushed to make tea. After a while, he hurriedly came over with a tea tray, and the water did not overflow.
Luan Ying took the tea in the girl's hand and handed it over respectfully, but the old lady just took a sip and put it aside.
"I heard Mama Liang say that you are concentrating on copying Buddhist scriptures every day and praying for me, an old woman?" asked Luan Ying out loud.
Hua Qianshu couldn't help but praise in her heart, this young lady from a big family naturally had more powerful eyes than Qingyu and others, and she actually directly crossed Mama Yan and climbed up to the person in front of the old lady.
Sure enough, Yan Pozi's face was not good-looking, and she secretly glanced at Luan Ying.
Luan Ying Fufu body: "I don't know how to do a filial piety for the old lady, I think about it, and I have to put all my thoughts on this Buddhist scripture." Pray for the blessing of the Bodhisattva, the old lady is always smiling, and the blessing is long. ”
The old lady bowed her head with satisfaction: "It's rare that you have this thought, it just so happens that you are going to the temple to offer incense tomorrow, so you will accompany me and burn it to the Bodhisattva at that time." ”
