Chapter 17: Victory and Defeat
"Exactly." Aunt Xiao nodded in response.
Mrs. Ren was a little surprised: "When they just moved here last year, our old lady also sent the housekeeper some congratulatory gifts, and the Han family also sent back gifts. It's just that the ladies in their mansions rarely go out, so although there are some courtesies between our two mansions, I have never seen the Han family. Why does the Han family still have a relationship with Yanbei Palace? ”
Aunt Xiao thought about it and shook her head: "I haven't heard of this." I have been to Han's house twice, and I have met the old lady and wife of Han's family, and Mrs. Han is a kind person, and Mrs. Han is also very capable. ”
"I heard that the old lady Han who is now in charge of the Han family is recruited?"
Mrs. Ren was also really curious about the Han family. It stands to reason that the son-in-law has always been looked down upon, and he has no status in his wife's family. However, this old lady of the Han family took over the Han family after the death of the previous head of the Han family, and he is not the patriarch but is better than the patriarch.
There are a lot of rumors about the Han family in Baihe Town, and some people say that the Han family was originally just a rich family in Jizhou, but it was just a little asset. It was the current old man Han who had a unique vision and persuaded his father-in-law to sell a few fields and start a business, and as a result, he made a lot of money.
It's a pity that the Han family has always kept a low profile, the men go out to do business, and the women don't go out, and they have little contact with the people in the town.
Aunt Xiao was about to answer, when the curtain in the east room was lifted, and Ren Yaohua walked out.
"Grandmother, I've cleaned it up...... Hey? Do you have a guest? "Ren Yaohua has been favored since she was a child in Mrs. Ren's place, and she talks more casually than other granddaughters, and she only saw Aunt Xiao in the middle of speaking.
Mrs. Ren glared at her and said to Aunt Xiao: "This girl has been spoiled by me, there are no rules, auntie don't be surprised." ”
Aunt Xiao hurriedly said: "The girls of the Ren family are either gentle and friendly or lively and cute, which everyone knows. ”
Ren Yaohua came up with a smile to greet Aunt Xiao, and then said to Mrs. Ren: "Grandmother, I have to go back to Ziwei Courtyard for a trip, so I won't disturb your hospitality." ”
Mrs. Ren nodded: "You can eat there for lunch, I want to be a vegetarian with Aunt Xiao today." ”
Ren Yaohua answered, then turned around and walked out.
Aunt Xiao smiled and watched Ren Yaohua leave: "This is the third lady in the house, right?" Some days are gone, and the ups and downs are becoming more and more watery. ”
Mrs. Ren said with a smile: "The temperament is too jumpy, and there is a monkey." ”
"I look like a sensible person." Aunt Xiao said, suddenly stretched out her right hand and pinched it, frowned slightly, and then withdrew her hand, and quietly took a sip of the tea at hand.
Her movements were watched by Mrs. Ren.
Old Lady Ren knew that Aunt Xiao could read feng shui and fortune telling, and she could see it very accurately, so she couldn't help but hurriedly ask, "Auntie was there just now?" ”
Aunt Xiao saw that Mrs. Ren asked, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I remember that the third lady of the house was born in Geng Wunian?" ”
"Auntie has a good memory, Hua'er was born in August of Gengwu year, and she is twelve years old this year." Old Lady Ren nodded.
Aunt Xiao thought about it carefully and muttered, "Then doesn't this year happen to be the natal year?" ”
Old Lady Ren frowned: "But what's wrong?" I remember that auntie, you once said that Hua'er's life is very compatible with mine. ”
Aunt Xiao shook her head: "Originally, there was nothing wrong with this, the old lady Ren was born in the year of Bingxu, you were born in the year of Gengyin, Binggeng was originally in conflict, but the third lady is a tiger, because Yin Wuxu will become a fire bureau, which is exactly in line with the gossip fortune of this family's house, this is good luck." But this year, the third lady is the natal year, and if she commits Tai Sui, this auspicious omen will become a bad omen. ”
Old lady Ren was anxious when she heard this: "Then how can we break this game?" Please also ask my aunt for some advice, I will thank you very much. ”
Aunt Xiao hurriedly said: "The old lady is serious, I don't take care of the house on weekdays, these are all deserved, I don't deserve your thanks." It's not difficult to break this game, so let the third lady not move to Ronghua Courtyard for the time being this year, and find a girl who is still underage when she was born. ”
"Born when the child was born?" Old Lady Ren frowned and pondered.
"Old lady, Miss Nine happened to be born when she was a child." Mama Gui was born and reminded.
"But the Ninth Miss who is twin with the Sixth Young Master?" Aunt Xiao asked.
"My aunt has such a good memory, it's her." Old lady Ren nodded.
Aunt Xiao pinched her fingers and calculated, and smiled slightly: "Then there is nothing wrong, Miss Jiu's life is also excellent." She also belongs to the five elements of wood, and this Ronghua Courtyard is just located in the off-position, and the wood is fire, and the wood can prosper the fire...... Just right. ”
Old lady Ren breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." It's just that if Hua'er has passed the year of her birth......"
Aunt Xiao hurriedly said: "When the third lady has passed the natal year, naturally everything will be fine." ”
Mrs. Ren thought about it, turned her head and instructed Mama Gui: "If you go to Ziwei Courtyard, you will say that Hua'er will not move in for the time being, and we will talk about it after this year." In addition, I went to Fangfei Courtyard to talk to Aunt Fang, and asked her to help Ying'er clean up, and then live in the warm pavilion in the middle of the room. ”
Mama Gui bowed her head and turned to leave.
When Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua got the news, they were talking to the Li family in the main room of Ziwei Courtyard, Ren Yaohua's face sank suddenly, and the people in the room didn't dare to speak out when they saw this, and the atmosphere was suffocating.
Mama Gui brought the meaning of the old lady Ren and gently retreated.
Ren Yaohua suddenly got up from the chair.
Li Shi hurriedly persuaded: "Hua'er, your grandmother said that you should move in next year, you still don't disobey her." Your grandmother has always believed in this feng shui fate. ”
Ren Yaohua looked at Ren Yaoqi and said with a cold face: "You come with me." So saying, he went out.
Li Shi was so anxious that he shouted at her: "Hua'er, what does this matter have to do with your sister, don't spill your anger on her." ”
Ren Yaochi smiled and shook Li's hand: "Mother, don't worry. The third sister has something else to say to me, not to be angry with me. ”
Li was a little unconvinced, so Ren Yaochi said to Mama Zhou on the side: "Mama Zhou will come along, so that mother can rest assured, right?" ”
Mama Zhou nodded towards the Li family, and the Li family let go of Ren Yaoqi's hand, still a little uneasy: "If your sister bullies you, you ...... You just run. ”
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but laugh, got up and blinked, and said naughtily: "Don't worry, mother, I'm running fast, the third sister can't catch up with me." ”
Ren Yaoqi and Mama Zhou followed Ren Yaohua to the east room.
"That's what the slut was for? Let Ren Yaoying live in Ronghua Hospital? Ren Yaohua glared at Ren Yaoqi and said.
Ren Yaoqi sat down on the other side of the kang table in the aisle, and said quietly: "She laid out this game, which can not only make you have a feud with the fifth aunt and daughter, but also make the ninth sister raise her value." ”
"Now that the fifth miss is doing this, not only does the third miss clear it, but also makes Aunt Fang suffer the consequences and match the fifth lady." Mama Zhou was overjoyed.
Mrs. Fifth has always been eager to revenge, and if she hates anyone, it will definitely be an endless fight.
"It's just, how did the fifth lady know that Aunt Xiao would agree to help? And when you asked me to send someone over, you said don't reveal your identity. You must know that Aunt Xiao's reputation has always been excellent, and she will never do anything that she talks about. Mama Zhou wondered.
In fact, in the previous life, it was because Aunt Xiao came to Ren's house that Ren Yaoying was able to move into Ronghua Courtyard.
It's just that Aunt Xiao in the previous life only appeared after Ren Yaohua moved out of Ronghua Courtyard after being exposed by the fifth wife. At that time, the fifth wife had already been hooked up with Ren Yaohua.
Ren Yaochi guessed that Aunt Fang might have reached some kind of tacit understanding with Aunt Xiao a long time ago. So she asked Mama Zhou to send someone to let Aunt Xiao enter the house in advance in the name of Aunt Fang, so that Aunt Fang wouldn't want to stay out of the matter.
Aunt Fang didn't know if it was because of her cautious temperament or because of some considerations, Aunt Xiao didn't have private contact with the maid and mother-in-law close to her, and this just gave Ren Yao an opportunity to take advantage of.
After Aunt Xiao received the news, she immediately appeared, and really made up a set of statements according to her instructions.
It's just that he couldn't say this, so Ren Yaochi only said that he accidentally heard the conversation between Aunt Fang and the maid and guessed something.
Ren Yaohua's face was still not good: "What about Ren Yaoying?" Is it so cheap for her? ”
If Ren Yaoying is raised under her grandmother's knees, it will make her worth increase a lot when she talks about marriage in the future, which is also a good calculation for Aunt Fang.
Ren Yaochi smiled: "Standing tall is indeed far away, but it is bound to become the target of others." ”
Ren Yaohua thought about it and couldn't help sneering: "With Ren Yaoying's temperament, I'm afraid that the higher you hold it, the heavier it will fall." Aunt Fang has been smart all her life, but she gave birth to such a good person, and she is still struggling there. ”
Ren Yaoqi's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he suddenly smiled: "Wait, maybe you will see something interesting." ”
Ren Yaohua frowned: "What do you mean?" ”
Ren Yaoqi smiled, didn't answer, only turned his head and instructed Mama Zhou: "The things that I moved over this morning, let someone move them back later." ”
Mama Zhou bowed her head and responded, thinking about it and being a little worried: "But now that the third lady is away from the old lady, will she have a break in the future?" ”
Ren Yaohua glanced at Ren Yaoqi.
Ren Yaoqi knew what Ren Yaohua meant by this glance, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Presumably, Ren Yaohua still thinks that she can't see her. Not only did he deal with Aunt Fang, but he didn't want her to take advantage.
Thinking of the events of the previous life, Ren Yaoqi suddenly couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Do you really believe that as long as you win your grandmother's favor, she will be able to consider everything for you?" ”
Ren Yaohua sneered and looked at Ren Yaoqi: "What do you want to say?" ”
Ren Yaoqi sighed lightly in his heart, stood up and walked out, and when he lifted the curtain, he said softly without looking back: "I just think that it is better to ask for others than for yourself." Pin all your hopes on others, and at the end of all, maybe only despair will remain. ”
Ren Yaohua was stunned for a moment, looked at the cotton curtain that had been lowered, and pursed her lips silently.
Aunt Fang, who was originally "sick in bed", sat up from the bed in shock after hearing Mama Gui's words: "What? You said Aunt Xiao is here? The old lady asked Ying'er to move to Ronghua Courtyard today? ”
Mama Gui smiled: "That's right, the slave maid congratulates Aunt Jiu and Miss Jiu." ”
Aunt Fang was not happy, and said in a daze: "Why did she come today?" I obviously ......"
Seeing this, Mama Gui was a little puzzled: "Isn't this a good thing?" Isn't it just to let Miss Nine come out in such a game? ”
Aunt Fang smiled bitterly: "Yes, but the timing is not right......"
And when the fifth wife got the news, she was so angry that she trembled: "Fang Yaru! Hello! You're so nice! ”
