Chapter 273:
Originally, it was because her father was obsessed with ghosts and tricks, and he wanted to make fun of her family affairs again and again, which made it difficult for people to continue to treat him as a father.
It was precisely because of this that she would move her mind to drive him away, at least out of sight. Therefore, a place like Huizhou was originally chosen to toss him, Rao is an official, and his life is hard.
Where there is no oil and water, there is no difference between being a clean official or not.
After all, no matter how much effort is spent, it can't float a layer of oil.
The people below have a hard life, and the people in the official office are also like that, he went, where is there a reason not to endure hardship.
It's just that Xie Shuning didn't guess that he had only been there for less than a year, and he had two letters to complain about his illness, and one was more aggrieved than the other, as if he was going to return to Huangquan without waiting for the next day.
She was also ruthless, and always felt that he was just playing a temper, deliberately exaggerating his condition, and wanted to fight for sympathy.
Song didn't dare to ignore these two letters, if there was only one, she would have read it and wrote a reply and put it away, but the tone in the second letter had changed, it seemed that a serious illness had not healed for a long time, and half begged her to take Lukong to Huizhou, so she had no way to pretend that she had not received the letter.
"Your father wrote a letter, how could I not go." Song shook his head, and his earrings moved, "This letter was originally sent to Beijing with the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there is also a copy in the long room." He had never been the one who reported good news but not bad news, and he must have told the old lady about his illness. ”
Sure enough, she said this. Someone from outside came to report, and the long room asked her to come over and talk.
Song guessed that it was Xie Yuanmao's business, and shook his head helplessly.
Xie Shuning listened from the sidelines. Immediately said: "I'll go with you!" ”
"You don't have to go, if your third aunt is there, you will be angry when you see it." As soon as the Song family thought about it, they immediately thought of the Jiang family, and suddenly didn't dare to let Xie Shuning follow him to Meihuawu.
Since the incident of beating the sixth girl Xie Zhiruo, the Jiang family has been full of hatred for Xie Shuning, and in the past they only despised and despised it with some occasional envy. Now it's real hatred. hates the injustice of this world, why does her daughter have to spend the rest of her life in the nunnery, but Xie Shuning is still at home leisurely preparing for her coming day and ceremony. Pick a son-in-law everywhere.
Why?
Everyone has such a grievance in their hearts, but Jiang's grievance seems to be particularly strong.
Song was afraid that she would see Xie Shuning go crazy and make people unable to control the scene, so they didn't agree to Xie Shuning to go with her.
Chiang had also been ill before. But Xie Zhiruo was sent to the nunnery. Her illness gradually improved, and now I don't know why, but she always stays by the old lady's side.
She was originally the maiden niece of the old lady in the long house, in the early years, she was quite blue-eyed by the old lady, and then something happened, and the old lady slowly snubbed her, but the blood and family relationship is always indelible. After Xie Zhiruo's accident. Jiang ran to the old lady and cried bitterly, repeatedly saying that he had no way to teach his daughter. Shame on the Xie family.
is rare and sensible, even the old lady was surprised when she saw it, and she couldn't help but gradually soften.
The eldest lady Wang easily didn't say anything, and this time she couldn't help chewing the root of Jiang's tongue behind her back, saying that she was flattering, and blaming her for not teaching her daughter, and now her daughter was sent out of the Xie family, and she went to the old lady to sell her well, but she was really hard-hearted, and the poisonous snake had to take a detour when she saw her.
She said it with a clear look, but she didn't want to climb people behind her back, I didn't know, and she thought she was laughing and praising people.
Song said a few perfunctory words, and his heart was like a mirror.
The eldest lady was obviously jealous of the Jiang family, who once again attracted the old lady's attention.
The open and secret battles between the concubines and concubines actually have little to do with the Song family, who lives in the third room.
But when the main room of Meihuawu went in, the big kang near the window held the ebony Buddha beads, leaned on the big pillow, and the old lady sitting on the kang head had nothing to do with her.
Who made Xie Sixth Master Xie Yuanmao, although his name is under the name of the third old lady, in the final analysis, he is still the child of the old lady in the long house.
Compared with the third old lady, this is her serious mother-in-law.
The spirit of the old lady in the long room has long been much worse than before, but the momentum is still there, seeing Song come in, she lifted her eyelids slightly, and the Buddha beads in her hand turned faster and faster.
Song saluted her, and she laughed and beckoned Song to take a seat.
In recent years, a lot of things have happened in the Xie family, and the old lady is also a little weak in her heart, so she often calls her daughters-in-law to come to Meihuawu to talk with her. The eldest lady dared not comply, so she circled in front of the old lady all day long. At this moment, they are all here.
The concubines also greeted a few words in turn.
The old lady suddenly said, "It's all gone, let's go and get busy." ”
The next group was stunned.
was puzzled, and heard her say again: "The sixth daughter-in-law stays and talks with me." ”
Originally, she sent someone to find the Song family, and the Song family knew what she was going to say to herself, but the eldest wife didn't know anything at all, so she couldn't help but speculate secretly, but she still retreated according to her words.
When there was no one in the house, the old lady asked people to serve tea to the Song family, and then sent a few maids out. Song Shi didn't feel a little suspicious, this movement seemed to be about to say some big secret.
Autumn is coming, and the old lady is afraid of the cold, so she will not like to open the window.
Song ate the warm tea, and couldn't help but sweat a little on his forehead, which was hot.
When the old lady saw it, she laughed twice, put her Buddhist beads on the kang table, looked at her and said, "It's hot, right?" ”
Song held the tea cup and shook his head: "It's the tea that's hot." ”
"I'm older, I'm not stronger than you young people, and I cough when the wind blows." The old lady still smiled and tucked her clothes, "Once this person is old, this life will not be his own." Seeing that the days are counting and living, no one knows which day they may go. ”
She said such things for no reason, and when Song heard that she couldn't help answering, she also comforted: "Are you in good health......?"
Who knew that she was only halfway through her words when she was interrupted by the old lady of the long room.
The old lady smiled suddenly. His brows were furrowed, and his white and fat face showed an unusual seriousness.
She looked at Song fixedly and said, "I'm old. It's good or not, just a few years to live. You little ones are good, and my old wife will feel gratified. As she spoke, she changed her words and got to the point, "The sixth child is sick, have you ever been informed?" ”
Between husband and wife, if they don't even tell each other that they are sick. I'm afraid that it will be a stranger for a long time.
The old lady thought so, but where did she understand the relationship between the Song family and Xie Yuanmao. Far from being a simple stranger.
gave birth to a pair of children together, how can the bond between the two be cleared up.
Especially Xie Yuanmao, while losing his temper, felt that the Song family was not good. On the other hand, Baba sent two letters in a row from Huizhou to complain about his grievances.
Dozens of years old. Still like a child.
He has been passed to the third room since he was a child, and the old lady always feels that she is ashamed of him, so she has always treated him as a young son.
In comparison, the youngest Xie Qiye is not as heavy as he is in the old lady's heart.
But when the third old lady was there, the old lady of the long room did not take care of her son, who had been passed on to the third room.
It's just that now the children and grandchildren in the house are not the same one by one, and she inevitably thinks of Xie Yuanmao again.
Besides, the third old lady is no longer alive. She had the intention of being a mother again.
So as soon as she received Xie Yuanmao's letter, she couldn't help but call Song.
Song guessed that she was doing this. Listening to her question at this moment, he said calmly: "I mentioned it." ”
It's concise, just two words.
The old lady was a little dissatisfied: "You don't have any ideas?" ”
Song lowered his eyes, groaned slightly, and said, "If you are sick, you naturally have to ask a doctor to see it." ”
"Nothing else?" The old lady's face was a little difficult to look at, and then she sighed a long time, "The sixth child took you back to the house back then, but I didn't agree, you came from a humble background and didn't mention it for the time being, and the sixth child married you back then and never had the life of your parents, which is unreasonable." But you are a good boy, knowledgeable, well-behaved, and gave birth to a pair of children for the sixth child, I think about it, the Chen family is not as good as you, so I am determined to help you. ”
"You really live up to my expectations."
"My old life was also saved by you. So over the years, I have been thinking about the two children in the third room everywhere, and I don't dare to assign you to do things. ”
The old lady said one by one, as if she wanted to clear up all the things she had done behind the Song family's back, so she didn't mention it, and only picked the good one and said: "When the order issued by the sixth child came down, you didn't plan to go to the post with you, so I didn't force you to go." But if you think about it, how many are like this? Now that the sixth child is sick, you, as his wife, should be taken care of by his side, don't you say? ”
"When my second child passed away, I was so sad and terrified. A white-haired person sends a black-haired person, do you understand this sadness? The sixth child's temperament, where can he take care of himself, what kind of character is Chen's, you don't know, where can she take good care of the sixth child! I still have to go in person, I can rest assured! ”
In the past, the three old ladies were just black-hearted, but the old lady in the long room was really able to speak.
Song was silent, and after a while, he said, "Aunt Chen is very good, and she will be able to take care of the sixth master properly." ”
"Nonsense!" The old lady started the fire violently, and grabbed the bracelet that rested on the kang table, "You don't treat yourself as the main room, your husband is sick, and you actually ask a concubine to take care of it?" The sixth is an official outside, and when he says it, what do those people outside think of him? ”
How the family members are, it is also the face of a man.
The old lady took a deep breath: "You must go this time!" It's a big deal, when the sixth child recovers, it doesn't hurt to come back. ”
She thought in her heart that Xie Yuanmao only had one son-in-law, and he was too thin.
The Song family is not very old, it is the time when they are in their prime, if they can give birth to a few more sons for Xie Yuanmao, it will also be the help of the Xie family in the future. (To be continued......)
