Chapter 15 Layout
Turnip's words made Ren Yaohua's face slightly cold.
"Who is it?"
"The Liu'an family came up from Zhuangzi not long ago, and she and Mrs. Xu, who was on duty in the gatehouse of the outer courtyard, were concubines."
"Mrs. Xu from the concierge?" Ren Yaohua was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement, "Ying'er's mother-in-law? ”
Turnip nodded: "It's her." The dog that the Lu'an family brought in today was borrowed from Mrs. Xu. ”
When Ren Yaohua heard this, her face changed unpredictably, and suddenly she turned her head and glared at Ren Yaoqi: "I really let you guess correctly!" In this way, it is difficult for Aunt Fifth not to suspect me. ”
"This relationship will soon be found out by the fifth aunt." Ren Yaoqi smiled and looked at Ren Yaohua.
Ren Yaohua's eyes narrowed slightly, and she took a few steps in the room.
"What is the relationship between Ying'er and her mother-in-law?" Ren Yaoqi was not as anxious as Ren Yaohua, but inquired about irrelevant matters.
Wujing hurriedly said: "The slave maid heard Sister Zhu'er say that Sister Ying'er was lucky, her in-laws valued her very much, and her man was also an honest man." Sister Ying'er has always been the same at home. ”
"Say one?" Ren Yaochi raised his eyebrows slightly, chewing these words carefully.
"Huh!" Ren Yaohua sneered, "What a good one!" ”
Ren Yaoqi glanced at Ren Yaohua and said with a smile: "If it weren't for that, how would this stolen goods be planted on you?" You must have secretly instructed your former maid to mobilize her family to stand up for you. ”
"What now? You can't just let that slut succeed and hide in the shadows to make a profit, right? Ren Yaohua gritted his teeth and said.
"How...... Naturally, there is. Ren Yaoqi thought about it and said slowly.
Ren Yaohua glared.
After Ren Yaoqi came out of the main room, he called Mama Zhu.
When Li and Ren Yaohua went to Zhuangzi, the biggest housekeeper in the Ziwei Courtyard was Mama Zhu, which made her really beautiful for a while.
But since Ren Yaohua came back, she couldn't get involved in the affairs of Ziwei Courtyard at all. Therefore, in the past few days, Mama Zhu's life has been extremely difficult, and she even thought about begging Aunt Fang.
It's just that Aunt Fang hasn't seen anyone for the past few days, and I heard that she is infected with the wind and cold, and she is unwell.
"Why is Mama listless?" Ren Yaochi glanced at Mama Zhu a few times and frowned.
Mama Zhu looked left and right, came to Ren Yaoqi's side, and snorted and cried: "Ouch! Miss, you don't know what to do! The days of the slaves and maids have not been easy! The third young lady, she doesn't like you, where will you have a good face when you treat us, the minions who are finally you? Let's just say that yesterday, the steward brought a few plum bottles out of the storeroom, and the slave and maid looked at one of the azure smoke and rain that you once wanted to come to the hall and put plum branches in the winter. But the steward said that this plum bottle was found for the third lady. The slave begged a few times in a good voice, but after the end, she was humiliated by a few tricky maids beside the third lady! The old face of the slave ......"
Ren Yao was furious: "How can this be true! Ren Yaohua really deceived people too much! ”
Mama Zhu secretly glanced at Ren Yaoqi, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that she was really full of anger.
She heard the maid in the courtyard say that the relationship between Miss Third and Miss Fifth has not been as tense as before these days. But she knows Ren Yaoqi's temperament best, especially when she was slapped by Ren Yaohua, it was impossible to swallow this breath.
"Not really! Miss, you are also a lady's concubine, but when you come to the third lady, you are not even as good as a sister-in-law! ”
Ren Yaochi thought about it and suddenly smiled.
Mama Zhu was stunned for a moment, a little inexplicable: "Miss? ”
Ren Yaoqi beckoned to Mama Zhu, and Mama Zhu leaned her ears closer.
"Mama, don't worry, I'll help you out of this breath! Originally, I still wanted to endure her in my mother's face, I didn't want Ren Yaohua to be so arrogant after only a few days of coming back, and I also wanted to beat and scold if I wanted, I didn't want to put up with her anymore, and I had to get her to Zhuangzi again to solve the hatred in my heart! ”
Mama Zhu was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Then Miss, do you have a way?" "No wonder there hasn't been any trouble in the past few days, it turns out that Miss Fifth is looking for an opportunity.
Ren Yaochi nodded: "This is natural." I discovered a secret of Ren Yaohua today! ”
"What's the secret?" Mama Zhu was stunned.
Ren Yaohua smiled: "Do you know what happened in your grandmother's yard today?" The eighth sister was grounded. ”
Mama Zhu thought about it for a while and said carefully: "I heard that it was the two maids next to Miss Eight who brought dirty things into the inner courtyard?" ”
"Actually, it's not about the eighth sister at all, it's Ren Yaohua making trouble behind her back!" Ren Yaoqi was determined.
Mama Zhu's eyes rolled: "Is this true?" ”
Ren Yaochi glanced at Mama Zhu: "Naturally, I heard that the mother-in-law who slandered the eighth sister this morning was Ren Yaohua." As long as I tell Aunt Fifth about this, do you think Aunt Fifth will spare her? She just came back and did this kind of thing to frame her sisters, and her grandmother would definitely send her to Zhuangzi again! This time she wanted to go back home, and it wasn't that simple. ”
Mama Zhu pondered for a while, thinking that with the temperament of Mrs. Five, she would indeed not let Ren Yaohua have a good time.
"Miss is right, you got the fifth miss, you are still the biggest in this yard!"
So, Ren Yaochi took Mama Zhu to the courtyard of the fifth wife.
The fifth wife had just come back from the ancestral hall after secretly watching Ren Yaoyu, and she was worried about how to get her daughter out. Hearing the news that Ren Yao came over, it was a little strange.
After Ren Yao's salute was finished, the fifth wife was too lazy to greet her, and said directly: "You are a rare guest." ”
Ren Yaoqi knew that Mrs. Lu Dao had never liked them, so she repeated what she had said to Mama Zhu straight to the point.
Sure enough, after the fifth wife was stunned, she gritted her teeth with hatred: "Ren Yaohua!" How dare she! ”
Ren Yaoqi and the fifth wife shared the same hatred: "Why doesn't she dare? You don't know, since she came back, I've been bullied by her! slapped me for no reason, and today he called me over to teach me a hard lesson! I am inseparable from her! ”
Seeing that she was more excited than herself, the fifth wife calmed down, glanced at her and said, "But, why did Ren Yaohua do this?" ”
"Naturally, in order to drive the eighth sister out of Ronghua Courtyard, she lived in it herself!"
The fifth lady frowned, touched the teacup and muttered for a moment: "Where did you learn about these things?" ”
Ren Yaochi seemed to be a little hesitant when she heard this, and quietly glanced at Mama Zhu, Mama Zhu winked at her encouragingly, Ren Yaochi coughed lightly and said, "Oh, this...... I heard this from Ren Yaohua's maid. ”
The interaction between their master and servant made her think differently in the eyes of Mrs. Five.
The fifth wife thought, could it be that Ren Yaoqi's words were actually heard from Mama Zhu?
"This is Mama Zhu beside you?" The fifth wife's gaze turned around Mama Zhu a few times.
Mama Zhu hurriedly bowed her head and made a respectful gesture.
Ren Yaochi nodded, a little heartless: "If Aunt Fifth has anything to say, just say it, Mama Zhu is my confidant, and she helps me a lot on weekdays." ”
The fifth lady smiled when she heard this, lowered her head and took a sip of tea, noncommittal.
Who is this Mama Zhu, Ren Yaoqi doesn't know the way, but she knows the way.
"Aunt Five? When are you going to expose Ren Yaohua in front of your grandmother? Ren Yaoqi said eagerly.
"Oh, this...... Don't worry, I still have to go and check it. The fifth lady said perfunctorily.
Ren Yaochi glanced at Mama Zhu again, and then said: "Yes, yes, yes, the stakes are very high, and it is really good to check it yourself." This Liu'an family is Ying'er's aunt, and Ying'er is my mother's person, when she was in Ziwei Courtyard before, she listened to Ren Yaohua's words the most, and you can inquire about this matter casually! ”
Mrs. Fifth sounded a little careless, but asked about something else: "I haven't seen your aunt for a long time, what has she been busy with lately?" ”
Ren Yaoqi said: "Auntie, she has been sick for the past few days and has not gone out." ”
Mrs. Fifth smiled, a little meaningful: "Oh...... Sick again, huh? It's like she's in character. ”
