Chapter 264: One Shift
Seeing Dong Xiaoman's mother and daughter leaving, Mrs. Mei said coldly to the eldest daughter-in-law: "In the future, if there are guests with no background at home, you don't need to invite your younger brothers and sisters." ”
He made a cold face to the third lady: "I don't need you to say that my grandson is not good for the exam, and you are also vicious because of your bad mouth, and you blame my son for not entering your house?" ”
The third lady did not speak with a white face, and Mrs. Mei got up and was supported by the maid and prepared to go back to the bedroom to rest. The eldest lady raised her feet and walked out, without looking at the third lady. The fourth lady looked at her lips and smiled, and the third lady muttered in a low voice: "Originally, I was telling the truth, a down-and-out family is also worth entertaining." My mother's real money was sent back, and I didn't see the old lady say a good word. Isn't it modest for me to be able to be admitted to the exam? ”
The fourth lady chuckled, stood up and said, "Isn't the third sister-in-law claiming to be from everyone, why don't you even have this success?" Hongyan: That's the meat in the old lady's heart, whether it's good or not, can you and I say it? ”
The third lady went out of the upper room in a sullen manner, walked around the garden, felt tired and went back to her yard to rest. As soon as he entered the gate of his yard, he saw the housekeeper next to the old lady in the upper room walking out.
Thinking that the old lady had some instructions, she swallowed the discomfort in her chest and frowned and stepped forward and asked, "Mama is here?" But what does my mother-in-law have to say to me? ”
The housekeeper smiled: "I've seen the third lady, the old lady doesn't have anything to say to you." ”
"Then what are you sneaking up on in my yard for?" The third lady is a young daughter, and she is loved by thousands of people. usually treats his subordinates like pigs and dogs, and thinks that the poor are caused by not accumulating virtue in their previous lives.
"Oh, the third lady is wrong to blame the slave. The old lady gave Miss Minglan a few horses of material, and just sent them to the girl. The grandmother seemed to not be able to hear the contempt in the third lady's mouth, and said more and more respectfully.
"What? Give that slut something? What is she to reward? The third lady was already angry, but now it is even more like adding fuel to the fire.
"This old slave doesn't know what to do, maybe it's the Minglan girl who serves the third master." After speaking, the grandmother leaned over and saluted: "The little one has to go back to his life, so he will retire first." ”
No matter how arrogant the third lady is, she knows that she can't move her mother-in-law, so she is so angry that she raises her feet and rushes into the side courtyard. I happened to see Minglan admiring these fabrics with the maids. The third lady rushed into the room and stretched out her hand to give Minglan a slap.
"Madame, what are you doing?" Minglan was beaten and fell to the ground at once. The sudden incident also startled the maids to scream.
"What to do? I'm just beating you shameless slut. The third lady was still puzzled, and rushed up to tear the cloth.
Fortunately, the people around him were not confused, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Miss, don't tear it, the old lady knows how to pay it back?" ”
The maid next to Minglan is named Xiaohong, and she is the most scheming. Zhilu said that this was the old lady beating the third lady in this way, and the third lady didn't know the way. If you want to make your family's master's position more stable, this time the matter will make a big fuss, and the third lady will inevitably eat and hang.
Come to think of it. Suddenly rushed to the third lady's side, hugged her legs, and began to cry: "What is the third lady doing?" What do you do to beat our girl for no reason? Why do you want to beat our girl? ”
"Girl? Who is your girl, shameless slut, go away for me" The third lady was startled by Xiaohong's howl, and stretched out her leg and kicked Xiaohong's body.
Minglan is not a vegetarian, and she can mix from a cleaning maid to a close-fitting big maid in the mansion and then become a concubine who has no name. It's not a puppet made of cotton wool in his bones, and his mind is bright.
Get up at the next level. Running out and messing up your hair while no one was following. Like a crazy woman, she went up to the room, and by the time the third lady opened her mouth to ask someone to stop her, it was too late.
The third lady was not stupid enough to chase her to the upper room and beat her again, so she hurriedly ran back to her room. Take off your clothes, take off your jewelry, take off your makeup, and let Yahuan boil medicine for herself.
He was lying on the bed and began to hum and chirp and pretend to be sick. Seeing that an hour has passed, no one has come to the upper room to ask the teacher.
The third lady hurriedly asked someone to come over and ask, after all, she did it herself, and it was really shameless. But that's the kind of character. When he was not married, he relied on himself as the youngest. The whole family has something for themselves. I couldn't help but get angry when I was angry, and I began to regret it after the fact. Besides. The mother-in-law always makes the decision for her daughter-in-law when she looks at Ming Shili. In fact, it's just eccentricity at all, towards the sister-in-law and the four siblings, and never hurt yourself.
Today is just to tell two truths, and if she is unhappy, she will lose face to herself. If this family stays any longer, will it still have its own status?
Thinking about it, the third lady became more and more angry, and began to blame Dong Xiaoman: "If it weren't for this poor woman rushing to deliver a few broken zongzi, would there be today's matter?" A poor family from outside, I don't know what the road has become poor in the north. I deceived the old lady and sister-in-law, and now I am disturbing my house, and I really made a mistake with her. ”
The maid who went to inquire about the news came back, and the third lady sat up and asked with raised eyebrows, "What did the people in the room say?" ”
The little maid saw that the third lady was more stern than ever today, and she was so frightened: "It was said that the old lady was taking a lunch break and was shocked by Miss Minglan." At this time, I was asking about sin, and I didn't say anything else. ”
The third lady was not at ease, and at this time she heard the little maid outside say, "The eldest lady is here." ”
Quickly lying down and humming, the eldest lady walked in and asked, "How is your grandmother?" It was fine just now, why did you lie down now? Have you hired a doctor? ”
Mingyue, the big girl on the side, said: "Isn't it a good place, if it weren't for Minglan who came over with the old lady to reward a few pieces of cloth to stimulate our grandmother." ”
The eldest lady was surprised: "What's the matter?" ”
Mingyue said: "I followed my grandmother back from the garden, and I happened to see Mama Li give a reward to Miss Minglan." Before grandma entered the house, Minglan came over to show off to grandma. There is a lot of disrespect in the words, and the eldest lady knows the temper of our grandmother. The most important rules can't tolerate sand in their eyes, and they taught Minglan a few words at the moment. Minglan was not only grateful, but also said some unclean words, and turned our grandmother upside down angrily. Isn't this resting here? ”
The eldest lady said angrily: "This Minglan is really too ignorant, and she rushed into the upper room just now to disturb the old lady." Since your grandmother is fine, I'll go to the upper room to have a look. If Minglan is really at fault, this person really can't be kept. "Actually, the eldest lady's words are just for the third lady to hear, whether to stay or not is what she should be in charge of as a sister-in-law?
"When I passed, I saw her lying on the bed with her eyes closed. The makeup was also washed and the hairpins were pulled off. There was incense in the house, and a short time after I passed, a maid brought me a tranquilizer to drink. The eldest lady didn't talk about him, and the old lady understood.
If you are really angry, can you still have kung fu to remove makeup and change clothes? If Minglan really committed a big rebellion, with her temperament, wouldn't she immediately dismantle Minglan and remove her bones?
She took Minglan in the room for the third child, and she changed the name of the dowry maid next to her. I knew that this excitement could last a long time. Old Mrs. Mei massaged her head by the eldest lady, and said with an old look. Why did you choose such a family in the first place, it can be seen that good appearance is not enough. This temperament is really unacceptable, and it has to be sharpened well. The eldest lady remembered what the third lady said, and she was angry in her heart.
"When the third child came back, you told him directly. She doesn't know what the heaviest thing is for people like us. "After decades of ups and downs, the four brothers' feelings for their mother are self-evident.
The three brothers' admiration for their eldest brother and sister-in-law is not fake, and the reason why they are today is all due to their mother and brother and sister-in-law. At that time, the family was poor, and the sister-in-law married the eldest brother despite the opposition of her mother's family. and sold his dowry for his three younger uncles to study, how could he allow himself to leave his brother and sister-in-law and mother after becoming an official.
Sure enough, after the third master of the Mei family went home, he heard his sister-in-law tell him in person. Without saying a word, he went back to the yard with a black face, and the Mei family returned home slightly drunk in the middle of the night.
While drinking sobering tea, he listened to his wife talk about today's events: "If Mrs. Zhang doesn't confide in us, Hongyan is going to secretly take the exam from us." We still don't know how to go, this kid has matured a lot after going out of Lu. ”
Uncle Mei nodded: "Master Zhang is quite bold in business, and he has a long-term vision. The children in the family are also obedient, which is really good. It's just that I heard the second child say that in the future, it is better not to mix in the matter of going to sea trade. After all, although the imperial court did not explicitly prohibit it, it was not very safe. ”
The eldest lady was a little worried: "But there are still widows?" ”
The uncle shook his head: "We don't understand much about the affairs of the court. In short, the second said that three points are not good, at least six points are not allowed. ”
The eldest lady thought in her heart that she must tell Mrs. Zhang Dong Xiaoman, this Dong Xiaoman was talking to her daughter about family life.
"Looking at the third lady, she doesn't look like she is ignorant, mother, why do you say that she wants to say ours to her face? Isn't this a shameless for his mother-in-law? "Huanhuan can understand the truth, the third lady is about to be a mother-in-law, how can she not know the truth?
"The third lady is making a fuss about separating the family, so that the old lady can see it. I heard that the third lady has always thought that the eldest lady is stirring up the family without separation, so she has always complained about the eldest lady. Looking at it now, it may be because we are relatively close to the eldest lady. Dong Xiaoman pursed his lips and smiled, taking the opportunity to teach his daughter.
"There are many ways to get along with people, some people are good at being tough and some people are not. Especially living in a large family, where several generations live together. His own face is the face of his husband and his children. In the same way, the husband's face is his own face. The third lady did this, so that her mother-in-law and concubine didn't like her. said that she had a good relationship with the third master, and she was happy to live a comfortable life, and she would split up for her. But in this situation of the Mei family, the third master will definitely not split up because of her. ”
In fact, Dong Xiaoman guessed correctly, because the third lady fell ill the next day. (To be continued.) )
