Hearing the news that the eldest girl was happy, the eldest lady was overjoyed, and immediately asked Wu's mother to prepare the carriage and horse, and went to Ji'an Hou's Mansion to visit her daughter in person.

When the carriage arrived at the door of the Hou Mansion, it was a young daughter-in-law in her early twenties who came out to greet her, wearing a garnet red ten brocade makeup gowns, a blue-green plum bamboo orchid skirt, and her facial features were dignified and beautiful. You're a rarity. ”

This woman is Lu Zhongheng's younger daughter-in-law, the second wife of the Hou Mansion in Ji'an, and the maiden niece of the old lady Wen of the Hou Mansion, she is very favored in front of the old lady of the Wen family, because Yu Mu's first child was injured, and the second wife has been in charge of the middle feed of the Hou Mansion for her, until Lu Zhongheng attacked the title, the old lady of the Wen family was partial to the second wife, and she never proposed to hand over the housekeeping power of the Hou Mansion to the justifiable Mrs. Yumu.

The second lady had a smile on her face, but the smile was a little reluctant.

She is an ambitious woman. Since marrying into the Marquis of Ji'an, she has been competing with her husband and the earl for the title. Her husband was five years younger than her uncle, and the title had nothing to do with their house, but she took advantage of Yumu's pregnancy to move her hands and feet in her medicine when she was pregnant with her first child, and as a result, Yumu injured her body and couldn't give birth to a son-in-law.

Later, Lu Zhongheng's concubine was born, and Yumu has always refused to hold one in the room, and she felt that she had a chance, she firmly grasped the housekeeper's power and kept looking for an opportunity.

Yumu, the sister-in-law, has always been good in her impression, and the second wife doesn't know how many trips she has made behind her back, but when she is face-to-face, Yumu has never blushed with her once and said a heavy word. Originally, Lu Zhongheng attacked the title, and Yumu received the order of Mrs. Zhengyi Pinhou, and her injured body because of giving birth to a daughter had already been healed. This Hou Mansion should be called to take care of her, but the second wife insisted on dragging and refused to give her an account, and the old lady naturally stood on the side of the little daughter-in-law, Lu Zhongheng did not disobey his mother's wishes, so he had to let her take care of the internal affairs of the Hou Mansion.

Yumu is not in a hurry, even in front of the old lady of the Wen family, she will never mention this matter. It's just that there is gradually some gossip among the subordinates in the house. said that she was overstepping her bounds, and she grabbed the right and refused to let go...... The second wife didn't take these things to heart. When the second wife saw that she was so easy to handle, she looked down on her even more.

Unexpectedly, she secretly became pregnant, and did not return to the Hou Mansion until the first three months were the most dangerous.

I didn't expect it! Only then did she vaguely know that this sister-in-law was not as easy to handle as she seemed on the surface. If she gives birth to a son, then her position in the Hou Mansion will be as stable as Mount Tai, and all the previous plans of the second wife will become a complete joke.

When the second wife learned the news, she lost her temper in her yard, smashed a set of pastel tea sets, and pretended to be happy, and accompanied the smiling face to the old lady to say goodbye, she could see that Yumu was pregnant, and the old lady was really happy, and she didn't even get angry when she instigated her to say that she had been pregnant for three months and had been hiding it from the old lady.

Over the years, Yumu has bowed down in front of the old lady and made a small person, and there is no one around the old lady who does not praise her, and the old lady has no more opinions, and she is a lot softer. What's more, the old lady just loves her second son again, and the eldest son Lu Zhongheng has no son-in-law so far, so she is also anxious.

How much disgrace there is in the Hou Mansion, the eldest lady is not completely ignorant, and when she sees Second Mrs. Lu, her heart is as disgusting as eating a fly.

The eldest lady snorted coldly: "I naturally don't dare to come, your second wife is in charge of the Hou Mansion, where do I dare to cause trouble for you!" The tone was full of sarcasm, and Mrs. Lu couldn't hear it. Now that she is walking outside, there are many people in the circle of noble ladies who point fingers, but fortunately, she is thick-skinned enough, but she doesn't know what to do.

Seeing the eldest lady coming, Second Mrs. Lu was actually happy. When the eldest lady and the old lady Wen met, they pinched, and when the eldest lady came back, the old lady Wen had a greater bad feeling for Yumu, and the second Mrs. Lu was naturally happy to see it. smiled and said, "The in-laws are too serious." You are the sister-in-law's mother-in-law, and we can't even ask for it to come to the Hou Mansion as a guest! Besides, the housekeeping matter is tedious and trivial, I wanted to unload this burden for a long time, and I wanted to wait for the family's accounts to be sorted out, and then hand it back to my sister-in-law, but I didn't think that my sister-in-law was pregnant again. She needs to raise a baby, so I have to help her take care of it for a few more days! With that, he covered his sleeves and smiled.

The eldest lady listened to the anger rising in her heart, and when she heard her tone, she really regarded herself as the serious hostess of the Hou Mansion. Just as she was about to stab her a few words, Mother Wu had already pulled her sleeve without a trace.

She has dealt with Mrs. Lu a few times, this little slut has a honey-bellied sword, and her eloquence is very good, and the eldest lady has suffered several secret losses, she immediately reacted and forcibly swallowed back what she wanted to say.

Before coming, Wu's mother mentioned her very vaguely: "This time, let's go to say hello to my aunt and grandmother, and if you don't want to do it, your wife won't have to pay attention to it, and you don't have to be angry with them!" ”

The eldest lady suffered a lot of losses, but finally listened to it. Mrs. Lu was familiar with her temper, and she wanted to hook her into saying something she didn't like, but it was another lawsuit in the ears of the old lady Wen, but she didn't expect her to endure it.

Second Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Mrs. in-laws, please come with me, the old lady is waiting for you in the room." "The Lu family that the eldest lady hates the most is not the second Mrs. Lu, but the old lady of the Wen family, who made a lot of trouble in the city for Lu Zhongheng's concubine, and the eldest lady lost face, and even the queen mother couldn't protect her. How she doesn't hate! Although she has been thinking about the eldest girl all these years, she rarely comes to see her in person, because she doesn't want to see Wen's.

Of course, she wanted to go to her daughter's side to sit at the first stop, but it was really unreasonable to not see the old lady first when she arrived at the Hou Mansion!

"My wife, please." Second Mrs. Lu led the way in front with a smile, pointing out the scenery in the Hou Mansion all the way, as if the eldest lady had come in for the first time. The eldest lady was eager to strangle this little slut to death, and Mother Wu was slapping her neck with a killing chicken on the side.

The eldest lady endured the anger in her heart and finally entered Wen's room.

The Wen family didn't even welcome the door, but only sent a mother-in-law to greet him at the door. Although the eldest lady thought that she couldn't make trouble for Yumu in her in-law's house, she was angry after all.

Went around the Duobao Pavilion and entered the hall of Wen's room, Wen wore a plain Hangzhou silk gown, sat on the Luohan couch, and when he saw the eldest lady come in, he finally squeezed out a smile, "The in-laws are here!" On a hot day, it's hard all the way! Sit down, sit down! ”

After greeting each other, the little maid came over with a Taishi chair covered with a big red velvet cushion, and brought up a cold sour plum soup. The eldest lady sat down on the chair and said directly: "I came here this time to say hello to the old lady of my in-laws." ”

The old lady Wen also became happy when she heard this. "Rejoice and rejoice! The eldest is in his thirties this year, and he has never had a son-in-law, and my psychology is not in decline, but fortunately, the eldest daughter-in-law finally spread the good news, and a stone in my heart has fallen to the ground. When she gave birth to a son, I was completely relieved about their house! ”

The eldest lady said, "Who says it's not!" The marquis does not have a son-in-law, and the inheritance of the title will become a problem in the future. Don't talk about old ladies, even I can't sleep at night, always thinking that they are still young, and sooner or later there will be a son-in-law. You see, that's all for me. As soon as I heard the news, I was overjoyed and immediately gave the Bodhisattva three sticks of incense. As he spoke, he smiled heartily, and his tone was full of pride.

This arrogant energy, the old lady Wen was very displeased, and the smile on her face faded a little. The next sentence of the eldest lady made the smile on the old lady Wen's face disappear completely.

The eldest lady said, "My poor daughter has suffered so much, and at last she has come to the end of it!" The meaning of this is that the Lu family has treated the eldest girl Yumu badly. How happy the old lady of the Wen family was!

Mother Wu couldn't help but stroke her forehead. Originally, it was a great joy for the eldest aunt and grandmother to be pregnant, and the eldest wife was happy, and Wen's was also happy. Everyone came happily, two good and one good, gossip a few words and go to see the aunt and grandmother, why bother to say these useless things, it makes the Wen family unhappy, and the last thing is to fall on the aunt and grandmother.

Mother Wu really doesn't understand, how shrewd the Queen Mother is, that is, the eldest aunt and grandmother, although she has a gentle temperament and has an idea, why is the eldest lady always so unreasonable.

She really has no way to take the big wife.

Mrs. Lu was happy when she heard this, this stupid person really didn't leave the bank in three sentences, and when she came, she would block the old lady, you did this, see how your daughter is doing well in the house?

She couldn't help but say with some grievances: "My wife's words are wrong! Over the years, the subordinates have not been disrespectful to the sister-in-law, and the mother has always regarded the sister-in-law as her own child, and she refuses to say more to the sister-in-law. Hou Ye also respects his sister-in-law very much, you said that she has suffered for so many years, our Hou Mansion does not dare to accept this crime! ”

Mrs. Lu's words were just right for Wen's thoughts, and Wen nodded unconsciously.

The eldest lady couldn't help but get angry. Seeing that the situation was not good, Wu's mother coughed several times. The eldest lady is angry, where can I hear this. The tone became sharp: "Since there is no place in the Hou Mansion that is not the same, why are there so many concubines in my uncle's room, and his sisters-in-law are not born, and the concubines are all running all over the ground." The Hou Mansion is so good to her, why can't her dignified Mrs. Hou even touch the housekeeper's edge now? The Hou Mansion is so good to her, why didn't she dare to make a noise when she was pregnant, and she didn't dare to return to the Hou Mansion until the fetal gas stabilized after three months? ”

The eldest lady looked at Second Mrs. Lu coldly and said, "May I ask Second Wife, how many concubines are there in your room?" How many passages are there? How many concubines are there? The second wife, don't be full, the man doesn't know that the hungry man is hungry! ”

Mrs. Lu took her husband to death, and her husband dared to compete for the title with the eldest brother who had been respected for many years for her, how could there be a concubine in his room! If there is no concubine to have a room, where can you give birth to a concubine!

The second wife was very aggrieved by this robbery, her eyes were red, and she lowered her head like an angry little daughter-in-law, and asked Wen for help: "Mother! ”

Although the eldest lady is talking about Mrs. Lu, she also has the meaning of irony about Wen's eccentricity. How could Wen not hear it! The smile on Wen's face had faded completely. She slammed the teacup on the table; "Mrs. in-laws! The eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law are both daughters-in-law, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, and I have always been a bowl of water, and I will not lean towards which one! The second daughter-in-law does not say anything else, she has given birth to three sons in a row in the past few years after marrying into the Hou Mansion, so there is naturally no need to add a concubine room in the second child's room. But if you look at the boss again, there are already more than thirty people, and I don't see the shadow of my sister-in-law. Can I, a mother, watch my son cut off his children and grandchildren? The matter of taking a concubine for the eldest was also approved by the Queen Mother back then, could it be that the wife of the in-laws still has any objections to the Queen Mother's decision? If the eldest daughter-in-law is like the second daughter-in-law, who can give birth to sons one after another, I will never put a concubine room in the eldest room! ”

Wen's meaning is very clear, these are no wonder others! If you want to blame, you can only blame your daughter for not giving birth to a son! Unfilial piety has three no queens, the most important thing to marry a daughter-in-law is to pass on the lineage, even if the daughter-in-law is as good as possible, the son can't be born, it is also in vain. Even if the daughter-in-law has some bad things, she can give birth to sons in a row, and she is the hero of the family.

The eldest lady turned pale with anger, but for a moment she couldn't find the words to refute it. This society is like this, and there are by no means a few people who are in this situation. What else can the big lady say?

The old lady of the Wen family was also happy, but she was stirred up by the eldest lady, and she suddenly lost any mood. Directly served tea to the guests. "I'm also tired, so I won't keep my in-laws and wives longer." Turning his head and instructing Mrs. Lu: "You take your in-laws' wife to see your sister-in-law!" ”

The eldest lady also stood up angrily; "So don't bother! Leave! Without looking at Wen, he turned around and walked out of Wen's hall. Mother Wu hurriedly saluted Wen and chased him out. She knew that this would be the result. In vain when she came, she persuaded the eldest lady for so long.

Although Mrs. Lu was robbed by the eldest lady just now, her heart was more comfortable than drinking cold sour plum soup for a while. The eldest lady is making such a fuss, if the Wen family doesn't get angry with Yu Mu, there will be a ghost.

She led the way in front with a smile: "Mrs. in-laws, go this way!" ”

The eldest lady now has the heart to strangle her, and she doesn't want to see her again at all, so she can't help but sneer: "I know the road to the main house, and the second wife has every opportunity, so I won't bother you to guide the way." He said to himself: "Some people, who take care of the house for others for two days, really regard themselves as Mrs. Hou, but unfortunately they are calculated in every way, and they will never be able to live in the main house in this life!" "Of course, the main house of the Hou Mansion is lived in by the current Hou Ye and Yumu, and the second Mrs. Lu will be in charge of the housekeeper for another ten years, and she will never be able to move to the main house to live!" When Hou Ye's sister-in-law is born in the future, what is the use of having more other people's sons-in-law? ”

Her words are neither high nor low, just enough for Mrs. Lu to hear. Anyway, I tore my face just now, so the eldest lady doesn't have too many scruples!

The second wife's face really changed, and a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes.

If you want to talk about the number of sections compared to the house fight, Mrs. Lu may not be higher than Yumu, but it is still no problem to throw Mrs. Da on the street. She immediately regained her face, and still said with a smile: "What the in-laws said is that when the sister-in-law gives birth to a son, everyone will naturally be happy." It's just that the sister-in-law should worship the Bodhisattva more and ask the Bodhisattva for blessing, not like the wife of the in-laws, who has no son in her life! ”

These words were not hurried or impatient, but they were like needles, piercing the eldest lady's heart one by one. has not given birth to a son in her life, which is the biggest pain in the eldest wife's life, no one dares to mention it in front of her, and when she mentions it, it is like revealing a scar, and it hurts bloodily.

She trembled with anger and pointed to the second wife: "You...... You ......"

Second Mrs. Lu had already taken the first step and said, "Since the in-laws know the way, I won't follow the past to disturb your mother and daughter!" He turned around and greeted the maid who followed him: "Let's go!" "After that, he really walked away.

Mother Wu saw that the eldest lady's face was almost green, and hurriedly stepped forward to rub her chest to smooth her breath: "Why should Mrs. be as knowledgeable as this person." It's not worth it to be angry for such an uneducated person! ”

"This little slut! This little slut! "That's when the eldest lady scolded." I won't give up with her! "Mother Wu sighed in her heart, you came here this time, and you offended all the mother-in-law and concubines of the eldest aunt and grandmother, is this helping her or harming her?

Mother Wu said helplessly: "Mrs., let's go see my aunt and grandmother!" Speaking of which, the second wife is a person from the Hou Mansion, how much intersection can there be with us, we have offended everyone, they still have to go to the aunt and grandmother in the end, let's not make more trouble for the aunt and grandmother! ”

The eldest lady seemed to have just reacted. Before she came, she also thought about taking a breath, but she didn't expect it to become like this again after the worst come, she felt angry for a while, and felt sorry for her eldest daughter for a while. sighed for a long time, and then was helped by Wu's mother to Yumu's house.

The eldest lady fell ill when she came back from the Ji'an Hou Mansion, and this illness was purely to give anger. Soon even Yulan heard about it. Her companion room was very close to the servants on the Yang family's side, and Xiaoyue would tell her anything on the Yang family's side in time. The eldest lady brushed her sense of existence in front of Wen, and Yu Mu didn't know how much effort it would take to add back the subtracted impressions on her mother-in-law's side.

Yulan also thinks that the eldest lady is really wonderful. Other people's mothers are all helping their daughters, and the eldest wife can only pull her daughter's hind legs. Marrying Yuxin to the prince is to create a cup, and marrying Yumu to Lu Zhongheng is originally very good, she is stirring in one of them, which is originally a very good thing, but it can be mixed into a bad thing.

The aura on the eldest lady is really talented.

Xiaoyue inquired about the news that the eldest lady was sick this time, and it was not all because of the Lu family. There are also a lot of things going on on the Yang family's side. After the fourth master returned to Beijing with a room of people, because the old lady and the old lady were still alive, of course the brothers of the Yang family could not be separated.

After the fourth master's family lived back to the Yang family, the food, clothing and chewing of the whole family had to go from the public middle school, although in the future, the salaries of the four masters and Bing Jing Tan Jing would all have to be handed over to the public middle school. But the fourth master's income is definitely beyond his means. Of course, the eldest lady will feel at a loss!

The eldest lady is in charge of the family's middle feed, and in her opinion, the silver in the public is her silver. What's more, she has always been ungenerous. The four-room house is all taken care of by her, and there is no need to talk about cutting corners inside.

Needless to say, the decoration, furniture, and furnishings in the house were poor, and even the servant women assigned to the four rooms were not enough. The fourth lady first arrived, and she had endured it. She was bent on finding a family affair for the sixth girl, and when she asked the eldest lady, she pressed the matter down without making a noise.

Originally, no matter the master or the servant in the house, they had their own clothes all year round. The fourth room came back a little late, and the eldest lady didn't make clothes for the fourth wife's family under the pretext that the summer clothes had already been made on the needlework.

The second wife still couldn't see it, and mentioned it a few times in front of many people, and the eldest lady decided to make summer clothes for several masters in the fourth room. The promise is the promise, but until now, it has been almost a month since I came back, and there is no one to measure the needle.

The fourth wife was not a big person in the first place, and in the past, when she lived in the Yang family, the eldest wife and the second wife saw that she was a concubine, so they didn't take her very seriously. Her husband has been out for six years and has been an official of the fourth grade, and when she comes back this time, the attitude of the eldest wife and the second wife towards her has changed, but the changes are not much. and refused to help the sixth girl say goodbye, she added new hatred and old hatred in her heart, so she couldn't help but not have an accident.

Now that the old lady is not in good health, no one dares to bother her. The fourth lady didn't care about the consequences of the old lady's anger, so she cried directly in front of the old lady, saying that the sixth girl gave birth to a son, and when she arrived in the capital, she didn't say that the food was inferior to others, and she didn't even have a piece of clothing to wear out of the house.

The old lady was not in good health, and she had already taken care of things, but she was still angry when she heard this. Called the eldest lady over and scolded her inarticulately. Soon, the matter of the eldest lady's harsh treatment of the fourth room spread all over the Yang Mansion. After the eldest lord knew the truth, he also went to Yiningju to scold the eldest lady.

The eldest lady lost face and was angry again, so she fell ill.

Yulan was speechless when she heard this. As the patriarch of the Yang family, the eldest lady is too small. Thanks to the high and powerful position of the prince, she didn't dare to go to the palace to point fingers, otherwise there would be such a mother-in-law, and it would not be easy to live a good life.

My grandmother was sick, and Yulan couldn't go to see it in her current state, so she sent Mother Qian and Xiaoyue to visit with precious medicinal materials. It just so happened that lotus leaf cakes were made in the kitchen yesterday, and Yulan asked them to bring them over and distribute them to everyone in each room to taste.

Mother Qian and Xiaoyue went over in the morning, and when Shen Shi was in the afternoon, Xiaoyue hurriedly ran back, and came in sweaty to report: "Princess, the fifth wife has started!" ”

The author has something to say: the update time in the past two days is a bit messy, and I will try to adjust the time back! Sorry for the inconvenience.
