Chapter 40: Easy to live in peace 2
Several other people even claimed that it was, Shen Qingwan stood up and said with a smile, "Grandmother, winning glory for the Prime Minister's Mansion is what a granddaughter should do, besides... It's a little too expensive to be good. ”
"It's okay, this is your grandmother's reward for you, you can take it for a long time." The old lady nodded, this sixth granddaughter, the more she looks at it, the more she likes it, the older she gets, the most resentful thing she holds is those people who affect the reputation of the house, "What about this second thing, you should have heard more or less, the seventh aunt Wu is pregnant, and it has been a month." ”
"What?" Hearing this news, the first one to jump up was Liu, and it was not wrong, before Wu was diagnosed with pregnancy, you must know that the Prime Minister's Mansion has not had a newborn baby for fourteen years, let alone pregnant, which is great news for the old lady, but for the Liu family, who is just about to take charge of the middle school to find a good way out for his own son, if the Wu family has another son, wouldn't it mean that there is one more person to grab the family property with her Yi Ming, which is not a catastrophe for the Liu family.
The old lady patted the table unhappily, "What, Liu, what are you dissatisfied with?" Liu hurriedly confessed and said that he didn't dare, just a little surprised, just kidding, the old lady was on the rise at this time, originally because of the embezzlement of silver, the old lady was very dissatisfied with her, if she showed that she had an opinion on Wu's fetus at this juncture, it would not be touching the old lady's mold, so how could she have a good life? There was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, no matter what, the slut of the Wu family couldn't give birth to this fetus to block her Yi Ming, no matter what! She's going to have to find a chance to be unconscious...
Just thinking about the old lady, she started the next topic, "Third, I plan to choose another room for the master to spread the branches, the specific candidates have not yet been decided, several of you are old people in the house, but what are the suggestions?" ”
If Wu's pregnancy can't make Liu too anxious, then the old lady's words have completely sent Liu into hell, you must know that since the last time her embezzlement of silver was exposed, the lord has never entered her yard once, since she married into the mansion nineteen years ago, this is the first time, although the lord has not entered the yard of several other prodigal hooves these days, but this is different, if there is a fresh face to share the favor... Liu felt that the whole person was not good when he thought about it, but the old witch threw the problem to them, and Liu didn't want to refuse hard, which made the old witch unhappy, but she had no good fruit to eat, and no matter how bad the old witch was, it was also her biggest reliance in the house now, Yi Ming, this stinky boy, was not in trouble, and she knew that she was eating and drinking all day long, Yi Jia, a dead girl, used to think she was a stable one, who knew that something happened, which made the old man unhappy, and even the youngest Yi Meng always gave her some moths, It hurt her to have to look at the old witch's face, and she couldn't stand up straight...
Liu racked his brains and thought for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "The concubine thinks that the two girls who are serving in front of the concubine are both good candidates, and their good looks and conduct are also first-class, the old lady may wish to consider them..."
Shen Qingwan looked at Liu's somewhat gloomy face, "Grandmother, granddaughter thinks that the sister who serves the tea next to you also looks like a good person." ”
was reminded by Shen Qingwan that the old lady noticed the maid who had been with her for more than a month, and she was only responsible for making tea on weekdays, because she didn't like to drink tea on weekdays, so she didn't notice this person, and now she looked carefully, her posture was superior and her figure was soft, and the most important thing was that her butt was good for birth and upbringing, maybe she could add incense to the house, the more she looked at it, the more the old lady liked it, and nodded again and again, "Sister Evening is right, this girl is really good, come forward and take a closer look at the old woman, what is your name?" How old is it? ”
Hongyi didn't expect this to be his turn, and when he thought of the very handsome man who was not old but a very mature and charming man, his heart was hot, until he heard the old lady's question, he reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, "Back to the old lady's words, the slave Hongyi is born in the Year of the Rabbit, and now she is just eighteen." ”
Born in the Year of the Rabbit? Liu Shi gasped even more, isn't that as big as his own Yi Ming? looked at Hongyi's very young face, and remembered his wrinkled face, and felt more and more uncomfortable, and then saw the shyness on the woman's face, if such a fox was allowed to enter the master's backyard, where could he have his own place? But she is no longer the "second lady" who used to be in power and still has a certain role in speaking, and she has no housekeeping rights, so what qualifications does she have to be dissatisfied? I had to listen to the old lady say the words she didn't want to hear, "Then it's decided, Hongyi, from today onwards you will be the master's maid, and I will ask Mama Li to arrange a place for you to live when you go back, and when you will open up the branches for the master, I will raise you as an aunt." ”
"Thank you for the grace of the old lady, thank you Miss Six." Hong Yi hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, this person is also a talker, while thanking the old lady, he didn't forget to bring Shen Qingwan who mentioned himself.
Shen Qingwan smiled, she really didn't see the wrong person, in her previous life, this Hongyi was not a safe person, although there was no such thing as choosing a room in this life, but Hongyi also seized the opportunity of her father's drunkenness, climbed into bed, and was also carried to the room, but it is a pity that in her previous life, she didn't hear any good news from Hongyi's death, and I don't know if there will be a difference in this life.
"Alright, let's all come over and prepare for dinner." The old lady took the lead in standing up and walked to the dining table on the side, and Shen Qingwan also got up and walked over. In the Prime Minister's Mansion, the aunts are not qualified to eat at the same table with the serious masters, and when the masters eat, the aunts can only eat at another table.
After finishing the meal, the old lady waved her hand to signal that everyone could go, Shen Qingwan slowly walked on the way back to Wuyuan, and after walking for a while, she heard someone calling her behind her, and when she turned around, she saw Shen Yiqiao,
"Seventh sister? What's wrong. Shen Qingwan asked a little curiously.
Shen Yiqiao's face flushed, and he was a little embarrassed to speak, "That... Sixth sister, can I learn pipa from you? ”
Shen Qingwan looked at Shen Yiqiao, who was looking at her expectantly, suddenly a little confused, and didn't know what to say, and nodded after a long time, "That's good, but I have some things to teach you these days, when I have time to spare, I will ask Mu Tao to go to your yard to talk to you in advance." She also wanted to see what kind of fame her inconspicuous sister was going to make.
"Yi Qiao knows, thank you Sixth Sister." Shen Yiqiao nodded happily, and after saluting, he ran away quickly.
Mu Tao looked at Shen Yiqiao, who had already walked away, and said a little worriedly, "Miss... Seven girls, she... And Aunt Seventh is still pregnant, so the slave is afraid that something will happen to your head......"
"It's a big deal."
