Under the west window, the turbid light sprinkled on the yellowed pages, and the faded handwriting, looking at it, could only squint and carefully distinguish, which was quite difficult.

"Miss, the eldest lady detains you like this, and you don't go to the second master to complain. Which big family has a lone lamp lit in the master's house? It's not as good as in the next room. Yi Nuwen said, you should settle early, and your homework will be delayed for a day, and you don't have to worry about coming. Sensei broke his eyes, and a thousand are not worth it. Chunying checked the windows on all sides, hugged her own embroidered pillow and quilt, and went to the outside to make the bed.

The lighting in the house depends on the bean-sized fire on the desk of the seventh girl, and it is not easy for the girl to read, and she is also stumbling when she gets things done, and she has to be careful when she walks.

"Say anything to take the object from the public, you need the eldest lady to nod and give the right of cards. But when the slave and maid passed, the eldest lady was clearly in the house, so she avoided it. All afternoon, I went twice and returned empty-handed. Isn't this intended to embarrass people? ”

The seventh girl turned a page in her hand, leaving a distraction to listen to Chunying's chatter. Think about it, close the book upside down, close your eyes and rub the corners of your forehead.

"The leave approved by the women's school has been on the road for four or five days in a row, and it has only been a month. Even the second girl's family affairs can't catch up. In this case, why bother to make troubles. There is such a big thing in the family, I am afraid that the eldest wife is also absent-minded, Ming'er will go again, if it still doesn't work, then go to find the second brother. ”

Chunying poked her head out from behind the seat screen and sighed faintly. "You are considerate of people, but people may not receive your share of affection."

This was really said by Chunying. The next day, the eldest lady specially invited her to talk, although the seventh girl had already expected that it would not be a good thing, but she never expected that Tong's good calculation would take advantage of the old lady's momentum to use both soft and hard, just to make her respond to the next matter.

The eldest lady was full of sorrow, and for most of the hour, she turned over and over with one meaning:

The second girl ran away from marriage and married the Yao family. But the prestige of the Jiang family and the face of the ancestors for generations cannot be disgraced. So now I need her, the second daughter, to be wronged, and to take the place of the second girl who caused trouble, and marry her!

As soon as the eldest lady finished speaking, the room fell silent for a moment. Tong carefully looked at the looks of the seven girls seat, and his heart was up and down, he was afraid that he would force people to be ruthless, one would die or live, and if he screwed with her, things would not be easy to do.

Chunying stayed behind the seventh girl, and faintly understood the meaning of the eldest lady's words, so she looked ashamed, and it was easy to hold back, and she didn't spit on her face. The big house is really too deceitful, and she dares to love that her wife is not here, so she thinks that Fang Er's bullying of the seventh girl has no one to support her, or what?

When I looked at the girl in a hurry, I saw that her girl had her eyes open, and her eyes were unusually calm, and there was no anger. For a long time, as if thinking about it for a long time, he slowly opened his mouth.

"The eldest lady has not heard that the fifth sister and I will enter Beijing in two years to be elected. The identity of this quasi-show girl, how can she still discuss her relatives in private? ”

When the seventh girl suddenly heard about this, she felt ridiculous. No wonder Jiang Chun is so out of tune, it turns out that he is so upbringing.

After seeing her shocked at first, Tong still spoke softly, and his voice was cowardly, thinking that the seventh girl was as easy to handle as ever, and waved his hand to call people to retreat, only Chunying held the arm of the seventh girl, and refused to leave no matter what.

Tong's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, thinking that it was not appropriate to turn his face at this time, so he pretended to speak, put on a pleasant appearance, kindly shook the hand of the seventh girl, and patted it gently, showing a little care from the elders. shook her head and looked at Chunying, as if to say that this girl couldn't understand her intentions, and she still didn't drive her out of the country after all.

Leaning closer, the eldest lady spoke earnestly, in a trance, with tears faintly glistening in the corners of her eyes.

"That's why I said I wanted to wronged you. Seven girls, you also know what the Jiang family is like now, and there will be no more chaos. Since childhood, in this backyard, counting and counting, you are the most sensible. The identity of the show girl is indeed a serious obstacle. But we're not in a hurry for a while. The Yao family said, wait for you, his family is also willing. When you are released from the palace, you can fulfill the marriage contract. And the Yao family also agreed, before you get married, the aunt and concubine who are in the first door will never have a concubine landing. You see, the Yao family also values you very much, although this family business is not rich enough, but doesn't the old saying 'easy to ask for priceless treasures, rare to have a lover'? That Yao family Langjun is a self-motivated person, if it weren't for my evil obstacle and not knowing the blessings, I said in my heart, I really can't bear to be such a Langjun, and become an uncle from another family. ”

Tong said that when he was sad, tears rolled down. Holding the hand of the seventh girl, it was tight and tight, as if it was so sad, and he poured out his heart and lungs for her.

The seventh girl didn't say a word, and quietly looked at the woman in front of her. From Chunying's small movements behind her back and repeatedly poking her vest with her fingers, it was clear that this little girl was afraid that she would be soft-hearted for a while, and she fell in love with Tong's way.

Perhaps in Chunying's eyes, the Tong family is extremely hateful at this moment. But she understands that the woman in front of her is both true and false, and not all lies. The eldest lady was remorseful in her eyes, and she was angry when she mentioned the second girl, which was really true.

She could read the woman's grief, but she could not show mercy.

"The Yao family is not afraid that they can't wait for this family affair?" What if you are released from the palace, it is not for nothing that you are assigned to marry by your master.

The eldest lady took a breath and took out a handkerchief to wipe her face, so as to hide the sarcasm on her face, "Isn't this a safe thing?" If he can't wait in the future, his family doesn't have this blessing. ”

The seventh girl's eyes flashed very quickly. What is "not sure", it is clear that she is not optimistic about her, and it is estimated that with her temperament, it is difficult to please the master, and in the end, she only ended up being old and released from the palace alone.

I can't help but feel a little happy. The Yao family listened to the comments about her, and bet on her "unpleasant"?

Retracting the palm that was a little sweaty from the eldest lady's hand, the seventh girl lowered her eyes, and suddenly remembered the man's intimidation before he left. Baba told her to "be careful of eating rattan......

So he sat up and straightened his waist, "This time, I can't help but be kind to you." My wife taught me that I was still young and that the world was sinister. It's not a little girl like me who doesn't know the world, and she can mix it up blindly. When the time comes, it's better for my wife to make decisions for me. After that, he looked at Tong's eyes in a daze, folded his hands on his knees, and went to the second wife to discuss something, she couldn't be the master at all.

Tong may have always been a cowardly girl, but when it was critical, she actually sang against her. Shocked and angry, especially in the words of the seventh girl, "the world is sinister", is this Xu Shizhen teaching her like this, or is this girl sneering openly and scolding people in person? !

It's rare to be patient and have a good talk with her, where is Tong's good-tempered person? was a junior, still a girl who had always thought she could hold it steadily, confronted her face and refuted her words, the eldest lady swept away the kindness on her face, leaned back and sat in the circle chair, and raised her chin slightly. The corners of the eyes are a little majestic.

"Seven girls, do you know that the Xu family is in front of me, and I also need to pay tribute to my eldest sister-in-law." This means, I want to use the wife of the second room to press her, but there is no door.

The seventh girl nodded, this is reasonable, she has to admit it. "You're the eldest lady, as you should be." Just when Tong thought that the deterrence had worked, and he was proud, he listened to the seven girls crisply, and said very seriously, "The prince of heaven and earth is the teacher, even if there is no marriage in the palace, and he also pays attention to the 'life of the parents, the words of the matchmaker'." Big lady, do you think this is the reason? ”

Take the elder and cure her? Don't you think that thousands of years of etiquette and religion can be rampant with just one "big" word?

Chunying admires her own girl to the heart at this time. Look at the eldest lady's deflated face, her swarthy complexion is more ugly than swallowing a fly. I thought that my own girl was only sharp in front of the second master, but it turned out that she was just as powerful in front of others.

Tong stared at the seven girls in front of him with a peaceful face, seeing that her attitude was still respectful, and the etiquette was not bad at all. looked harmless, but the words were reasonable, blocking her speechless. At this time, Fang was shocked to realize that this girl was the most cunning one, hiding so deeply?!

The room was silent for a while, and Tong was anxious, desperately trying to figure out how to cure her in his head, and secretly sweated a fine sweat. The seventh girl smiled lightly and straightened up. Just as he was about to exit the door, he heard two muffled sounds outside the door. After that, the old lady helped Shi's mother and slowly walked out of the shadows outside the door.

Old Lady Jiang's face was like frost, her long crutches slammed on the ground, and she stared viciously at the woman in the room who was standing with her head bowed in a green skirt.

"Bastard thing! You also know the 'command of your parents.'" Tell me, I, who is a grandmother, can't be the master of the Xu family! ”
