Sixty-fifth
Qiao Shan turned around, and learned what the master said, Shen Wanzhen was deflated at once, and Mrs. Qian sighed, "People's lives are destined." ”
"Didn't the master keep saying that he wanted to divorce his wife, why did this change again?" Xiuju took the feather duster bullet in his hand and went to the official kiln to pile up the dust on the black and white glaze of the flower black gold amphora, and answered.
"I think it's because I abandon my wife, then I still have the face to come, and I don't want to mention the matter of divorce from my wife." Mrs. Qian estimated that her uncle was thinking this way, and it was okay not to mention the matter of divorce for the time being, the girl was planning to leave, and she always had to make some preparations.
Shen Wanzhen buried her head in thinking, why did Zhan Shaoting change his mind, he said it so well before, could it be that he felt guilty because of Fang Cai's matter, the two sides were even, and they didn't care, but it wasn't like it, listening to the tone and having a tough attitude, it wasn't like a conscience discovery, and he was sincerely reconciled with his wife, but it was like a heart to find fault, what kind of evil fire was he holding back in his heart?
Qiaohui was helped by the maid Ling'er to the upper room, and the little girl standing at the door of the hall saw that it was Qiaohui, so she didn't stop her, and whispered: "The young lady is back, the girl should go in." "This little girl will also look at her eyebrows and low eyes, if Miss Ying comes, she must be stopped, the master didn't say that he wouldn't let Miss Qiao come up, so he also flattered her and let her in.
Qiao Hui entered the door and blessed her body, "Say hello to the young lady." ”
Shen Wanzhen was looking down to think about Zhan Shaoting, looked up and saw her come in, and hurriedly ordered the little girl to move a low pestle, let her sit down, and said, "You have a body, don't I say it, don't you have to come up, it's cold and the road is slippery, and it's inconvenient to walk." ”
"The concubine is young, and the doctor said, walk around more, and give birth when you are born." Qiao Hui replied respectfully.
Seeing Shen Xuanzhen's legs at a glance, he asked in surprise, "The young lady is injured?" ”
"Scratch the skin." Shen Wanzhen doesn't want to make everyone in the house know, the so-called family ugliness is not publicized, and it is plain for people to see jokes.
Wanzhen usually doesn't need a concubine to make rules in front of her, and she doesn't come to pour it clean, but the housewife comes to the house two days after going out, and the concubine room is to come to the room to say hello according to the rules.
In the main room of the small courtyard, the maid came back from outside and hurriedly walked in, "I asked you to go to Aunt Chen in the big house to borrow a few silk threads, did you borrow them?" Peony looked at the empty hand of Yu'er, and asked dissatisfied, this girl has a fast mouth, looks like a quick temper, but in fact, she can do things best to soak mushrooms, and the things that the master explained, nine out of ten times were delayed because of the excitement.
"Master, before the slave and maid left the second room, they saw the master's little maid Qing'er, saying that the master and the young lady met two groups of people fighting on the way back from the Wu Mansion and almost died." This girl usually speaks with a lot of water, but if you pour this water, you can also save some genuine goods, Peony was taken aback, she was so easy to be good-looking, not several times, if you go, this will be in the future... I am not a wife, I don't even have the status of a concubine, and I can't keep it if I don't go up or down, so what should I do? Thinking about it, I couldn't sit still.
"Go see you." As soon as the peony sounded, Yu'er helped her out of the door and went to the study.
The master and servant walked quickly, the sweat of the winter came down, and as soon as they entered the outer study, they saw Qiushuang walking out with a large basin of clothes, and Peony pointed to the soiled man's clothes in the basin, and whispered: "The clothes of the second master?" ”
Qiushuang pulled her out, went to the door, under the porch, and lowered her voice, "Ye is not happy to come back today, his face is dark, the young lady's girl didn't come to invite her, and the girl also touched the nail when she went in, why don't you go back first, and come over when your heart is smooth." ”
Peony heard that Zhan Shaoting had nothing to do, and whispered to Qiushuang: "You and my sister, if you have something to inform me, if my sister gains power, she will definitely not forget to pull her sister." ”
Qiushuang had no choice but to agree.
Peony left with Yu'er with confidence.
Qiushuang stood there with the basin, pouted, and muttered in a low voice, "When did you go up and pull me, if you don't squeeze me, even if you know the righteousness." ”
Peony took Yu'er out of the outer study, planning to go back first, and come back in the evening, maybe the master is in a good mood and can get some favor, thinking like this, he walked in the direction of the side courtyard, walked halfway, stopped, and said to Yu'er: "According to the rules, you should go to the young lady to say goodbye, you will tell the Westinghouse later, and say that the master has suffered a disaster, met a bad person, life and death are uncertain, and say that it is serious." ”
Yu'er nodded knowingly, the master and servant separated, Yu'er went back to the side courtyard, and the peony went to the upper room, feeling proud, scaring this Ying aunt, not trying to seize the position of the master's mother, hurry up, I am afraid that the master will go that day, so the bamboo basket will be empty, and in vain I have calculated that in the past few years, the sandpiper and the clam have competed for the fisherman's profit, which is this idea.
Peony came in the courtyard of the upper room, and the little maid at the door saw Peony coming up from the steps and squatted, "Hello girl!" "It turned out that they were all waiting in the second room, and when this peony went up, several big-hearted girls were a little jealous, but on the surface, they didn't look like the sisters and sisters in the head, and they all respectfully called a girl.
"The young lady is inside?" Peony raised her identity, took Qiao by herself, and did not laugh with the original sisters, and put up the master's score.
"The young lady has only entered the house." The little girl looked at her with a high posture, and she didn't say much.
Peony didn't pay attention to the girl, pushed the door in, Xinuan Pavilion hung a felt curtain, and there was a girl standing at the door, seeing her come in, she said inside: "The peony girl is here." ”
The curtain was raised, and Peony walked into the door, and saw Shen Wanzhen sitting on the kang, with two big girls and a mother-in-law in front of her.
Peony smiled forward, asked Anbi, stood aside, and said with a smile: "I heard from the little guy who told the master that the master and the young lady had a false alarm, but there is such a thing?" ”
looked at Shen Xuanzhen's leg again, and said in his heart: Could it be that Qing'er is telling the truth, leaving the young lady alone when the master was in a hurry, and the young lady was injured.
"When I met two groups of people, I knocked my knees." Shen Wanzhen's eyes flickered a little when she saw the peony, and looked straight at her leg injury, and knew that this room was all here to see the excitement, so she asked, "Have you seen your second master?" ”
"I didn't see it, I heard that the second master came back and locked him in the house alone."
The girl who was talking about peony entered the second room and walked back to the side courtyard, didn't go to her own room, walked to the west wing, pushed the door, stepped in, and called tentatively, "Is Sister Chunxiao here?" ”
"Hey!" A fifteen or sixteen-year-old maid walked out delicately, "It turned out to be Sister Yu'er." "This Chunxiao is the maid that the eldest lady Zhao pointed out to Aunt Ying.
Yu'er gestured down the house with her hand, meaning to ask Aunt Ying if she was in the house.
At this time, there was a voice from inside, "Who is it?" ”
"Sister Yu'er in the peony girl's house." Chunxiao hurriedly replied.
"Come in."
Yu'er lifted the curtain and went into the inner room, and Aunt Ying sat on the kang, fiddling with her shoes, and asked, "Where is your master?" Why are you so free? ”
"The master went to the upper room, and I heard that the master and the young lady came back from the young lady's mother's house, and they almost died when they met a bad person." Yu'er actually doesn't know much about the Tao, and he talks nonsense.
"How is the second master? It's all right, is it? Aunt Ying was so shocked that she didn't know what to say about the trick in her hand, and without waiting for Yu'er to answer, she urged: "Say it quickly?" The second master didn't have anything to do, right? ”
"Fortunately, the second master has a big life, so he came back alive, I heard that the gangster's bows, arrows, knives and guns are poisoned, and they will die if they are stained, and a few poisonous arrows almost hit the second master, and the second master is fast to hide." Yu'er painted her voice and color, and saw that Aunt Ying's face changed.
After Yu'er finished speaking, I heard that there was nothing to do, Aunt Ying's body was soft, and she had no strength at all, if Zhan Shaoting was gone, her life would be over, she relied on Zhan Shaoting in Bofu, if Zhan Shaoting was really gone, Shen was his wife, and she would beg for a living under her in the future, and it was all up to her to stay in vain, Aunt Ying was afraid in vain, today is a blessing, the second master has nothing to do, and there is something to do on a different day, so he can call the sky without a door, and the earth is silent.
Yu'er saw that Aunt Ying was frightened, so she retired, went out, went out, picked her lips and smiled, and turned back to learn from the master, the master has always been jealous of the second master When she took her into the room, Aunt Ying fainted in the hall and gave the master a look, which made her happy day unhappy.
Aunt Ying sat for a long time, suddenly remembered, and called Chunxiao and said: "You go to the room to see if there is anything wrong with the Shen family, so she said that she was ordered by me to greet the young lady, and the young lady did not let me go to the room, for fear that the fetus in the womb would be inappropriate, so she said that she sent you to ask the young lady if she was frightened." ”
The maid standing at the door of the upper room in the second room saw Chunxiao enter the courtyard and walked to the upper room, thinking, what day is it today, as if they were coming over, knowing that Chunxiao was a newcomer to Aunt Ying's house, and hurriedly stopped, "Sister, wait a minute, wait for me to go back to the young lady." Turning around and entering the house, the cats and dogs in Aunt Ying's house didn't dare to put them in, so as not to make the master angry.
"The Chunxiao girl in Aunt Ying's house in the West Courtyard came to greet the young lady."
"It's to see if I've had an accident, let her in, I'm afraid I'll let her down." Shen Wanzhen listened to the maid's back and forth and sneered.
When the maid turned around and walked out, Xiuju cleverly hurriedly took a thin sheet and covered Shen Wanzhen's body, covering her injured leg, and pretended to come back from outside, her body cold.
Shen Wanzhen looked at her and smiled, this girl has grown a lot.
A seventeen or eighteen-year-old maid came in from outside the door, and she saluted, "Say hello to the young lady." ”
Shen Wanzhen looked at her and asked, "You were originally in that room?" ”
The girl called Chunxiao said: "The slave maid is from the big house, and the one who used to wait for the eldest young lady was just transferred to wait for Miss Ying before." ”
Saying that, looking at her face, she was not very happy, she was a second-class maid in the young lady's room, and the young lady said that there was a shortage of people in the second room, so she was dialed over, and followed the serious master to follow the deputy master, and she was really disappointed.
Shen Wanzhen saw that the girl in Chunxiao had a seven-or eight-point appearance, and secretly thought that the sister-in-law Zhao must have taken advantage of that night's incident to comb all the maids in the room.
Seeing this girl standing with her head down, she said, "Go back, I have nothing to do here." I don't want to say more, what comes out of Zhao's house must not be a fuel-efficient lamp.
The young lady had a lukewarm attitude, even if Chunxiao wanted to tie up, she couldn't reach it, so she stopped trying to please Lu and retreated.
Feng'er passed through the verandah from the west wing, glanced at the back of Chunxiao's departure, entered the inner room, and whispered: "The young lady still doesn't know what to do, the young lady has been gone for the past two days, and a lot of things have happened in the house in the past two days, Aunt An of the big house let the uncle beat, and the uncle has an order, and she is not allowed to step out of the courtyard door half a step in the future, and Qiao'er, who waits for her brother, gave the uncle's little girl Chunwang as a daughter-in-law, and made Chunwang happy to go to the room to kowtow to the uncle and the eldest young lady, but let the uncle kick and beat, happy and sad. ”
Feng'er has been in Bofu for a long time, and all the owners and slaves are familiar with it, and Shen Wanzhen is not surprised, she has long expected this result, and the Zhao family matched Qiao'er with a small servant, so she broke Uncle Zhan's thoughts and eliminated future troubles, but Aunt An is afraid of a resurgence in the future, which Zhao will not worry about, and Aunt An's result is no better.
Feng'er covered her mouth with a handkerchief, as if she remembered something funny, 'giggles' out loud, and said with her eyebrows fluttering: "That Qiao'er cried and cried, hugged the uncle's leg and didn't go, saying that she would rather follow the uncle, not have a name, and not marry Chunwang, and the uncle ignored her, and ordered her not to come up from now on, just wait outside." ”
Shen Wanzhen thought that Qiao'er was caught raping that day, looking for death and life, and she didn't die when she was dying, so it seems that it is not easy to make up her mind to die.
"I heard that Miss Qiao'er was slighted by the uncle that day, and she was full of unhappiness, pretending to be a chaste martyr, which is good, and the uncle thinks she is dirty." This passage was known to the whole house, and it was said as a joke behind his back.
Chunxiao came out of the upper room and returned to the side courtyard, Aunt Ying was sitting and waiting for her to come back, when she heard the door ring, and the voice came from the inner room, "Is it Chunxiao?" ”
"It's the slave who has returned." Chunxiao took a few steps and entered the inner room.
"What's wrong, is the young lady injured?"
"No" Chunxiao looked at his master's eager eyes, and instantly turned into disappointment.
"Let's go, let's see the master." Aunt Ying was worried about Zhan Shaoting, put on a cotton robe on the outside of the jacket, and put on a plain brocade cloak, and walked out with Chunxiao.
As soon as I went out, I saw the red note in the east wing opposite coming out of the house with the maid Yu'er, it turned out that Yu'er heard the little girl in the upper room say that the second master and the young lady had an accident, and the details were not very clear.
Yu'er walked to the shadow wall with the red note, just as Aunt Ying helped Chunxiao to come quickly, after the shadow wall, to the weeping flower gate, the four people rushed to one place, Yu'er held the red note and hurried out of the house, Chunxiao helped the master to go out, several people crowded together, all refused to give in, the two masters were in the middle, the two maids were on both sides, and the red note and Aunt Ying in the middle glared at each other.
Aunt Ying's eyes rolled, and suddenly an idea came up, quietly took a half step back, put the red note first, the red note was just about to move, Aunt Ying stretched out her foot and stepped on the heel of her shoe, the red note was stepped on by her, her legs were lowered, her feet were hitting the threshold, and she didn't cross the threshold, and she fell at the door with a "chirp".
Aunt Ying's mind flashed, pretending that she couldn't stop her steps, and threw herself forward, lying on the red note, but she tilted her body to the side, and had an extra heart, afraid that the wooden threshold would turn over, and she turned forward slightly, lying on her back on the door, her feet on the threshold, humming and chirping, and calling up.
The red note fell forward, the threshold hurt in the abdomen, the red note fell to the ground with a strong momentum, Yu'er didn't pull it, but she was taken down, she hurriedly got up first, stepped forward to help the master, the red note staggered up, and just about to be anxious, she saw Aunt Ying lying on the ground with her stomach in her hand, 'oops' screaming.
Hongjian was angry, so he wanted to go up and kick him, but was pulled by Yu'er behind him, "Master, Miss Ying has a body." ”
As soon as she heard this, Hongjian was stunned for a moment, and watched Aunt Ying curl up, holding her stomach, lying on the ground and crying out in pain.
Chunxiao saw the master's small action of stepping on the red girl's embroidered shoes, she was a person with a lot of eyes, and saw that the master deliberately fell down and lay up, so she didn't pull it, and she didn't fall, at this moment, seeing Aunt Ying hugging her stomach and calling, she knew that she was pretending, so she had to cooperate with the master's fake play, squatting next to Aunt Ying, pretending to be anxious and calling, "Master, master, what's wrong?" Is there something wrong with the fetus? ”
Aunt Ying took advantage of the unpreparedness of the people, squeezed her eyes twice, Chunxiao immediately understood, pretended to call twice, got up, and ran out of the city to shout with her teeth and claws, "Come on!" The aunt broke the child in her belly.
After a while, Chunxiao beckoned three or four rough mothers-in-law, and several people carried Aunt Ying back to the house.
Hongjian stood in the snow, watching Aunt Ying being carried into the West Wing all the way, Yu'er whispered beside her, "Master, what does this Ying girl mean?" It was she who stepped on the master's embroidered shoes, deliberately lay on the master's body, and acted in this play again, which is to ....... ”
Before Yu'er finished speaking, she saw that her master's face had changed, and her eyes showed horror, and she instantly understood a little, "Master, Aunt Ying is not trying to blame ......" Speaking of this, she was so frightened that she covered her mouth and was at a loss.
Hongjian and Yu'er walked back to the house, and they didn't care whether Zhan Shaoting was good or not, they were frightened, and their minds were confused and they couldn't figure out what was going on for a while.
Aunt Ying was carried back to the house, Chunxiao took care of the master and couldn't leave, so she and a mother-in-law went to the room to return to the young lady, this mother-in-law didn't dare to delay, and ran to the room in a hurry.
Aunt Ying's fake pregnancy, only Shen Wanzhen and a few close people in the house knew about it, Shen Wanzhen didn't plan to expose her, made up her mind to cooperate with her in this play, and said to Xiuju behind her: "Take some silver, go to Zhongmen to find a small guy to find Lang Zhong, I'm afraid that no one will go to the clinic during the festival, give more medical fees." ”
said to Mrs. Qian beside him; "You go over the side yard and have a look." Mrs. Qian understood what the master meant, so she went to see the situation first, and then asked the situation in detail so that she could deal with it.
The old woman who came to tell the news went down.
Shen Xuanzhen said to Xiuju and Qiao Shan Feng'er: "The scapegoat has been found, this time it's good, I was unlucky to be bumped into by the red note, and the crime of this fetus fell on her, she can't tell it." ”
"This Aunt Ying is really ruthless." Embroidered chrysanthemum.
After Xiuju finished speaking, she was not in a hurry, she went into the house and took out the silver, and after rubbing it for a while, she went out of the house and went to the gate to find the little maid to find the doctor.
Shen Guanzhen thought that there was a good show to watch this time, Zhan Shaoting's backyard was in trouble, and he had to let it go first. ordered Feng'er to go back to Zhan Shaoting and tell Aunt Ying that something had happened.
