Farewell to Pan Cuilian here, Chen Yun went to An Qichun to sit again. An Qichun was rarely enthusiastic, and it was a seat and a tea, but Chen Yun was very uncomfortable, and she always felt that there was a bit of life in this enthusiasm, so she chatted with her casually and left Yanxi Hall in a hurry.

At this time, it was almost dusk, and the dawn was slanting westward, sprinkling ten thousand points of golden light, covering the peony flowers like glass, shining brightly.

Chen Yun looked at the sunset, remembering the leisure time when he was a child, he couldn't help but be fascinated, and Zhan Nian thought that Chen's father was running out of time, which added to the gloom, and hurriedly stopped the chaotic mood, and led Ruiyun and Ruicai to inspect the courtyards in the mansion.

The mothers who kept vigil were vigilant, and they didn't say anything about drinking, but just straightened their waists and folded their stomachs, and gathered in one place to talk about something new outside.

Chen Yun checked around, felt that the defense was very strict, and couldn't help but feel at ease, and listened to Deng Shanbao, who was in charge of the outer courtyard, sent someone to give him, saying that the small house outside had also begun to go to night, and he felt more relieved, so he changed his mind to arrange the palm lamp and the food delivery.

After being busy for a long time, he finally arrived at Xuzheng, the house gradually became peaceful, and Chen Yun also had time to sit down and eat some food.

Ruiyun took a piece of lotus root, slowly sent it to Chen Yun, and said, "Grandma is tired today, let's try this lotus root!" ”

Chen Yun took the silver chopstick, slowly put it in his mouth, only to feel soft and sweet, very delicious, couldn't help but eat two more pieces, and then opened his mouth and said: "It's really not a good family and don't know how to be in charge, it's only been one day, I'm already tired and tired, I really admire my wife's perseverance and perseverance for ten years!" ”

Ruiyun smiled: "Everything is difficult, no, it will not be difficult, grandma thinks that there are thousands of things in the house, there is no way to start, of course you can't be handy, and when you manage more in the future, learn more, you will naturally feel very simple again!" ”

Chen Yun listened to her soft words and said a true meaning, and couldn't help but be impressed.

Ruiyun was not proud, just stood respectfully on the side and picked up vegetables, and talked about the personnel relations in the house in a timely manner to broaden Chen Yun's horizons.

Chen Yun listened to the outline, roughly figured out the doorway, and suddenly doubled his confidence, so he calmly used dinner, and then ordered Ruicai and Du Juan to come in and collect the leftovers, fetch water, wash their faces, and go to the Luohan bed to rest.

Only then did he close his eyes, only to hear a sound in the courtyard, Chen Yun listened intently, like Feng's mother's voice, and immediately withdrew from the bed and slowly went outside. As soon as he came out of the corridor, seeing that it was Mother Feng, Chen Yun immediately stood still and called, "Mother Feng!" ”

Mother Feng glanced down the corridor, her expression suddenly eased, she leaned forward leisurely, and said, "It's really sad to come to bother grandma at night!" ”

"What is Mommy here for?" Chen Yun asked straight to the point.

Mother Feng only hesitated for a moment and said, "Mrs. just sent it. Chunzhi went back to the house to send a message, saying that Mrs. Chen was gone in the afternoon, and asked grandma to take the third lady back to the funeral! ”

When Chen Yun heard the news, it was as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on a cold day, and he shivered when he landed, and his soul was lost. Frightened, her sanity was still there, Chen Yun slowly came to her senses, thinking about how to tell Shen's mother and how to settle down the government.

hope

Looking at the sky, the darkness is shrouded, the moon ring is hanging high, I'm afraid that Shen's mother has already rested. Chen Yun didn't dare to disturb the old man rashly, so he had to think about the latter thing first.

There are only two ways in front of him: first, present the power of the housekeeper to Shen's mother, and dispose of it by her old man's judgment. But Shen's mother is old and in poor spirits, even if she is really willing to take over, I am afraid that she will have to entrust others to let the people below have time to drill. Second, send the right of steward to Mrs. Wu. This is a plan, but Mrs. Wu is poor-mouthed and thin-tongued, and has always been at odds with Chen's face, if she doesn't say hello, she will directly give Mrs. Wu the housekeeping rights, lest she pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and it will not end well in the future, and she will complain on both sides.

Thinking about it, this is not good, that is not possible, Chen Yun only felt that her brain was about to get bigger, and she happened to see Feng's mother by her side, and she couldn't help but have an idea, and said: "Feng's mother is an old man next to his wife, he has heard and witnessed it, and he must have learned a lot of skills, and now that it is an eventful season, my wife is not in the house to preside, and I also have to go back to the funeral, for fear of chaos in the house, I have to ask my mother to come forward temporarily!" ”

Feng's mother was happy in her heart, but her face was silent, and said: "Grandma can torture me, I am just serving by my wife's side, even if I have more knowledge, it is only a superficial surface, I am afraid that when it comes to the present, I may not be able to use it, not to mention, I am a subordinate, I have no power and no power, even if my grandmother gives me the right to be a housekeeper, I am afraid that those people below may not be really convinced!" ”

Although Chen Yun listened to her words and refused politely, she didn't reveal the embarrassment of taking over the housekeeper, and knew that she didn't have the heart to be an official, so she said slowly: "What my mother said is also the truth, the subordinates in the house are really not easy to control." However, the incident happened suddenly, and I had nothing to do, it seems that only tomorrow will be the old ancestor, and it will be decided by her old man! ”

Mother Feng's eyes moved, and she immediately nodded in agreement.

The next day, Chen Yunyi was not colorful, and went to Le Shoutang early in the morning to ask for peace, planning to inform Shen's mother of the news of her grandfather's death, but she didn't want Mrs. Wu to happen to be there, so she had to start a new plan, and tell her difficulties in a tortuous way, and let Shen's mother dispatch.

Shen's mother thought that she was dying and old and powerless to supervise, so it was natural to recommend Mrs. Wu as a housekeeper, but Mrs. Wu was used to a thoughtless life, and her heart for power and hegemony was gradually fading, and she thought about the sentence 'Fry the beans and everyone eat, and break the casserole and pay for it', she refused to take over the government affairs, and only said that she had been unwell recently and had no energy to take care of things.

In this way, the problem was pushed to Shen's mother, who could not let Chen Yun go back to the funeral, and could not see the house become a pot of porridge, which was really a headache.

Chen Yun's eyes were clear, and when she saw Shen's mother frowning, she hurriedly said, "I have a suitable candidate here, but I don't know if to say it or not?" ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Mother Shen frowned.

Chen Yun slowly opened her mouth: "I often hear my wife praise Mother Feng for being shrewd and capable, and now that no one in the house can come forward to preside over the overall situation, why not let her replace her temporarily?" ”

"It's okay to think about it, her man Deng Shan took care of the outside, and then she took care of the inside, and it was appropriate to be inside and out!" Shen Mu said calmly, and suddenly a different color flashed in her eyes, and she said, "It's just that the account room is important, and it can't be easy."

Entrusted! ”

"Although the ancestor can rest assured, I have already thought about it, and I have not moved the account for the past few days, and only Mother Feng is allowed to take care of the light vigil!" Chen Yun said methodically, "For the rest, I hope that the old ancestor and the second wife will bother too much!" ”

Shen's mother nodded yes, but Mrs. Wu got in the way of Shen's mother, so she had to nod.

The discussion has been decided, Chen Yun did not delay any longer, on the one hand, he ordered someone to call Feng's mother to him, and Haosheng said some management rules before he was willing to release the right cards, and on the other hand, he ordered someone to inform Shen Xueru to clean up and go back to the funeral, and then the aunt and sister-in-law went on the road together.

On the road, the willows are dense, the lotus is fragrant, and the summer scenery is a great scene, but the aunt and sister-in-law are in their hearts, and they are not in the mood to watch it at all.

At noon, the carriage entered the Zhuangzi, and a dog barked, and the barking of a hundred dogs began to ring in the ears endlessly.

The sister-in-law didn't care about this, but kept silent with miserable faces, and didn't show a little color until they got out of the carriage.

Walking into the small courtyard hand in hand, the sister-in-law saw that white curtains were hung everywhere in the courtyard, and all the sundries in the four seasons were cleaned up. The middle door of the hall is wide open, a coffin is displayed in the hall, the coffin is tightly closed, there is a case table in front of the coffin, there are incense candles and fruit points on the case, there is a brown and green copper tripod in front of the case, black smoke is emitting in the ding, and it seems that the dusk paper has just been burned.

The sister-in-law glanced at each other, and quickly walked into the side hall, only to see Yan standing at the table bent over, holding a pot in one hand and pouring tea in the other; Jin and Chen sat on the edge of Luohan's bed with sad faces, one crying, the other sighing; Chen's mother was stable, lying in bed with an expressionless face, but the red and swollen eye bubbles already showed that the old man had also had the experience of tearing his liver and gallbladder for a while.

When Shen Xueru saw this situation, she felt piercing her heart, and couldn't help shouting, "Mother! ”

Chen listened to the voice, slowly raised his head, and saw Shen Xueru in white clothes Shengxue, her eyes were rainy and tearful, and she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then beckoned Shen Xueru to her side, and said with a crying voice: "Your grandfather is gone in the afternoon, it's really sad!" ”

Chen Yun also walked to Jin's side, patted her mother's back intimately, and then said to Chen's mother, who was colorless: "Although my grandfather has lost all the bells overnight, he has to enjoy the age of seventy, which is already a great blessing and a great birthday, and I also ask my grandmother to mourn the change!" ”

It's good that Chen's mother didn't listen to this, but when she heard it, she burst into tears and cried: "I said that I grew old together, and now I am still living well, how can he just leave?" ”

When Chen saw his mother crying, his heart became even more uncomfortable, and he hurriedly spoke of relief, and Yan and Jin also went up to persuade him.

Chen Yun waited on the side, seeing Chen's mother slowly calm down, and then her heart calmed down.

Exiting the side hall, I saw Shen Fu striding over, Chen Yun's heart moved, and he hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Where are you coming from?" ”

Shen Fu looked at the twilight and said, "I just came from my eldest uncle, my uncle was busy procuring things, and Brother Yan was busy writing a list, and they all thought I couldn't help, so they sent me over to guard the spirit." As he spoke, he poked his neck into the house and asked, "Is Xueru here too?" ”

"Naturally!"

When Chen Yun said this, she couldn't help but be stunned when she thought that people were dying like lights going out.

“

Mother and aunt, what are they doing? Shen Fu took Chen Yun's hand and asked.

Chen Yun said: "I made a mistake just now, and I made my grandmother sad for no reason, and right now, my wife is busy persuading!" ”

Shen Fu sighed: "My grandfather is gone, my grandmother is sad, she has not eaten or eaten for a day and a night, and it is not a good sign to go on like this!" ”

Chen Yun was moved by the bottom of her heart when she heard this, her eyelashes flashed, and she said, "We can't help when we go in, it's better to cook a meal for grandmother!" ”

Shen Fu was pleased: "Your cooking skills are excellent, I will give you a hand next to you, whether it is splitting the char or burning the fire, washing rice and washing vegetables!" ”

The corners of Chen Yun's lips hooked, revealing a smile that seemed to be absent, quickly took Shen Fu's hand, and walked towards the kitchen in pairs.
