Chapter 183
"So you lost. That day, if it weren't for the third grandmother who let people look at me, saw Xiao Ning enter my yard and left, felt that something was wrong, and let people go to the eldest lady's courtyard to see, how could I not know that the eldest lady eloped with someone so quickly. ”
"You, how do you know?" Even the Zhou family didn't know about this matter, and when it came out of Aunt Su's mouth at this time, the Zhou family couldn't help but be surprised. Aunt Su looked at Zhou and smiled again: "So I said, you are really far worse than the third grandmother, and I don't know how your mother taught you to be like this!" ”
"Don't talk about my mother!" Zhou had already stood up angrily, and the maid hurriedly came over to put her on shoes. Aunt Su smiled, Shi Shiran sat down and said: "But also, you are the daughter of a rich family, your mother is also from a rich family, born in a rich family and married in a rich family, you know, but it is just some things in the back house, how to take care of people, how to please the top, and get a lot of benefits, this vision is only in the back house, how can you see the things outside?" Second grandmother, I, I wish you can be safe and secure in this life, rich and noble all your life, otherwise you will really be defeated, you, you will never be able to live a hard life! ”
This is said in Zhou's heart, not to mention hard days, even on such days, Zhou's feel miserable, four or five thousand silver a year, the people who serve are only twenty or thirty, if you want to make a few more clothes, you have to count whether the silver is enough to spend. He also said that he was rich, but it was just enough to live.
Aunt Su looked at Zhou's face, and smiled lightly: "So, second grandmother, you have no choice but to cooperate with me." ”
Zhou closed his eyes, then opened them, looked at Aunt Su and said, "What good way do you have?" Although you now live in the mansion of the transfer envoy, you are only the aunt of a concubine, and you are not as good as that kind of housekeeper. My mother met Mrs. Lin and said she was a very shrewd person. Under such a housewife, I'm afraid that Aunt Su won't be able to get any benefits! ”
"Who's going to compete with her for favor? Only you are like this who will think about how important a man is, and he can't wait to tie a man to the waistband of your pants. We're just taking advantage of the situation. I just want to tell you as soon as possible, what Aunt Su looked like back then, when she died, or the Rong family who left. And, if possible, send Meizhuang into the Rong family to scare and scare the eldest lady. ”
"If you ask me to inquire, do you want me to inquire? Besides, even if you inquire about it, what's the benefit? Aunt Su's eyes had already leaked everything, Zhou looked at her eyes, and said with some dissatisfaction: "If you want to cooperate, you must always benefit me!" ”
"Miss Rong was scared to death, Rong Qi was suppressed by the transfer envoy, and the Rong family's family business was scattered, is this really not good for you?" Aunt Su's voice was still so low, directly scratching Zhou's itch, her teeth bit her lower lip, and Aunt Su smiled: "Actually, if I don't ask for your cooperation, it will have no impact on my plan at all." But thinking about it, you and I have always lived in the same courtyard for so many years, and there is always a bit of incense. Besides, one more person is always better. ”
The Zhou family has been completely persuaded by Aunt Su, but she still has to make a statement, Aunt Su understood her thoughts, stood up and said: "That's it, if you don't want to, just because I haven't come, I will only deal with the Rong family!" ”
Seeing that Aunt Su was leaving, Zhou wanted to call her, but she couldn't help it after thinking about it. The smile on Aunt Su's face remained unchanged, this Zhou family is really stupid and doesn't know it.
Aunt Su returned to the transfer embassy, she had lunch every day, she either went out or went to the garden, and no one cared about her, she was very comfortable. When Fang walked in the door today, a mother-in-law came over and coughed at Aunt Su, Aunt Su was a little strange, and the mother-in-law had already bowed to the side. Aunt Su understood, took a step to the side, and sure enough, the mother-in-law followed, and quickly said to Aunt Su: "In the past few days, in my aunt's soup and rice, it is always the kitchen sister-in-law Liu who does it herself, and I happened to see it that day, as if she put something else in the soup." ”
Aunt Su sighed and looked at the mother-in-law, who hurriedly said: "My man's surname is Zhong, and he has been serving in the Lin family for more than ten years. "It is also common for the servants below to want to climb up and see that Aunt Su is favored, so they will be extraordinarily stammered. As for putting something else in the soup, I am afraid that it was at the behest of Mrs. Lin.
Aunt Su groaned for a while and smiled at Mrs. Zhong: "Thank you." When Mrs. Zhong saw that the news arrived, if Aunt Su felt her love, she would be able to go up at that time, so she smiled busily: "Serving the master, naturally you have to worry about the masters!" ”
"What I said is, it's just why don't you go ......" Mrs. Zhong has already understood: "Sister-in-law Liu can manage the kitchen, naturally there are people on top, that kind of thing, seriously speaking, it is also valuable and difficult to find, where can she come from, naturally it is more superior." ”
This is even more top, that is Mrs. Lin, she is the head of the Lin family, in this backyard, no one dares to disobey her, even if she rewards a bag of arsenic and asks Sister-in-law Liu to put it in the meal, Sister-in-law Liu does not dare not listen. Aunt Su couldn't help laughing: "I originally thought that Mrs. was, but who knows, ......"
Speaking of Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Zhong couldn't help but tremble a little before she said to Aunt Su: "Madame is famous for her generosity. Aunt Su smiled again, and thanked Mrs. Zhong and was about to go to find Aunt Su. Mrs. Zhong waited for Aunt Su to leave, and then left triumphantly, wives and concubines competed for the wind, this is inevitable, I am afraid that my wives and concubines will not fight, in this case, what reason do people have to climb up?
"Auntie, you say, what do I put in this soup and rice?" Aunt Su listened to Aunt Su's words, and she was so frightened that she almost broke the bowl in her hand. Aunt Su looked at her like this and pursed her lips: "What are you afraid of?" It's just something that makes people difficult to conceive, and it's only your body that hurts. ”
Having trouble conceiving? Aunt Su's hand couldn't help touching her lower abdomen, and Aunt Su looked at her with a sneer: "What, you really want to be here for a long time?" ”
"I, I'm not, it's just ......" Aunt Su said a little flustered.
Aunt Su's hand pressed Aunt Su's shoulder: "You, you still have little experience, what have you seen in the past few months when you entered the Lin family?" Lord Lin was beside him, in addition to his wife, but there were also two concubines, and those two concubines were all placed in the capital and were not allowed to follow. Weren't they pampered in the first place? ”
Thinking of the two concubines who were placed in the capital, Aunt Su lowered her head, and Aunt Su sneered and said: "Mrs. Lin looks, she is a means, the concubine named Osmanthus also gave birth to a son, and the sons are three years old." So what? That son is not raised by Mrs. Lin's side, one by one is called Mrs. Lin's mother, I heard that except for the New Year's holiday, that son will go to kowtow to the osmanthus, there is nothing else. That's it, and Mrs. Lin is praised outside as a virtuous person. You think that your son will kiss you and dream. ”
Osmanthus still has hope, hoping that her son will grow up and be promising, and after becoming an official, she will ask for a seal, and she can also get over the addiction of the old feudal king. But even if you really get the seal, it was more than ten years of boiling before, and after that, you don't have to live in the hands of Mrs. Lin, every stitch and thread has to be taken from others.
Seeing that Aunt Su was silent, Aunt Su's voice became softer: "What happiness is there in such a bitter day?" Today's mother-in-law is just for you to be favored, so I will say one more word. If you take in a new person tomorrow, who are you, does she remember? ”
"Auntie, if you tell the master about this, will you?" Aunt Su sneered: "What if you tell it, if Madam dares to do it, she will naturally have a backhand." Wives and concubines compete for the wind, and the one who loses is always the concubine, not the wife. "Even if the concubine has the upper hand temporarily, the court decrees that the wife is the wife, and the children are the wife, unless the wife has a short life, Mrs. Lin looks at it and looks at it, and it is not short-lived.
The so-called concubine's temporary dominance is just dependent on men, but wives, after having children and daughters, can not rely on men.
Aunt Su sighed, Aunt Su knew that her heart had turned back, and she said a few soft words to coax her, but she was thinking in her heart that she hadn't done this since she was a child, and she still wanted to live a good life. This matter is over, and this person can also be dispensed with.
"Mrs. Zhong has already passed the word?" Aunt Su heard Mrs. Lin's question, nodded and said, "Yes, it has been passed on, and I saw her go to find Aunt Su with my own eyes, and I muttered for a while." ”
After speaking, Aunt Su said: "Miss, what do you want to make them think that it is just a wives and concubines competing for the wind?" ”
"I just want to see if this Aunt Su can bear it!" Mrs. Lin said lightly and said to Aunt Su: "That Mrs. Zhong, find an opportunity to let her go to the laundry." "Aunt Su should be, Mrs. Lin's eyebrows furrowed slightly, when will the days of worrying like this end? And the letter that my mother gave me, it's almost here, right?
"Hey, I said the third child, how did you do such a thing?" It's still very easy for Master Rong to inquire about things, and when the excitement fades, Master Rong will also inquire, and he will inquire about it in a month, why is Lord Lin estranged from Rong Qi, so anxious that he immediately found Rong Qi and asked.
"Didn't my uncle want me to take the second girl as a concubine that day?" Rong Qi didn't panic at all, and Master Rong couldn't help but shake his head: "At this time and that time, since you have refused, don't mention this matter again." I have to think about how to make Lord Lin treat you well. Speaking of which, this time I received a white fox skin, which is very good, why don't you give it to Lord Lin, how about it? ”
"Uncle!" Rong Qi called Master Rong and said, "This matter, I have a plan in my heart to be a nephew, Lord Lin ......"
"Don't say that you are only in one term, Lord Lin is Jing Shangshu's son-in-law, and there are many disciples of Jing Shangshu, and it will be good for your future business to be able to get his blue eyes." Rong Qi looked at Master Rong, and couldn't help but want to tell the relationship between the Jing family and the Rong family, but he was afraid that Master Rong would be very proud when he heard the news, and then publicize it, so how could it be good?
