Chapter Twenty-Four: The dark clouds in Tingzhou want to cover the moon

"You little slut!" The abuser can't see the abused person's struggle and beg for mercy, and the anger becomes bigger!

"Cheap and presumptuous!" There was an angry shout from Mrs. Cui outside the door! Ai Tenggana hurriedly stood up from the stool and made a big bow to Mrs. Cui, who did not apply powder, together with Mei Xiang.

"Little lady Yiyue, don't dare to be!" After Mrs. Cui walked into the room, she hurriedly returned to Ayitengna to pay a solemn salute and ordered someone to help Ayitengna up.

Mrs. Cui, who has always had a bright face, frowned slightly when she looked at Mei Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground: "I don't know that Mei Xiang, a cheap maid, dares to speak so presumptuously, it's really annoying!" Come on, drag Mei Xiang out, slap your mouth twenty! ”

Mrs. Cui was very annoyed by Mei Xiang's presumptuousness, and she couldn't help but teach Mei Xiang, who was full of nonsense, a lesson.

Several healthy women responded and dragged Mei Xiang to the outside of the house to slap their mouths.

"Lady is angry!" Ai Tenggana hurriedly knelt on the ground again, and said earnestly: "Sister Mei Xiang has always been a personal maid who serves Xiao Langjun, and now she is clumsy and often does not serve Xiao Langjun well, so Sister Mei Xiang often teaches me how to serve Xiao Langjun. Sometimes it is inevitable that the words are more serious, and it is also Sister Mei Xiang's concern for Xiao Langjun. Besides, Sister Mei Xiang is right, a certain is indeed stupid and stupid, and she can't serve people. Usually, Sister Mei Xiang still cares about the slave maid, and often combs and washes her hair. ”

Mrs. Cui looked at Aitengna, who was trembling like a lost dog, and felt pity, bent down, helped Aitengna up, and whispered in her ear: "Little lady Yiyue, your status is precious, and you know it. Don't be so humiliating in the future. ”

After hearing this, Aitengna's heart moved, but she didn't know what to say, so she hurriedly stood up and stood aside with her hands down.

"I know that you and others often bully newcomers, and they also have a lot of reproaches and difficulties for the little lady of Yiyue. A certain today clearly told you and others, don't be rude to the little lady of Yiyue! You must know that neither Ah Lang nor Xiao Lang Jun has ever regarded her as a slave! Today, Mei Xiang is disrespectful, and she must be heavily responsible......"

"Oh, my sister is so angry early in the morning!" Before Mrs. Cui finished speaking, she heard the sarcastic sound of a loud horn from behind.

Aitenga was shocked, knowing that today's events were going to be even more troublesome.

Mrs. Cui heard the voice and quickly turned around to bow to Mrs. Pei, who was neither yin nor yang: "I woke up my sister early in the morning, it's really my sister's!" Shicai Meixiang bullied the new Yiyue little lady, and just happened to be bumped into by someone, so she was slightly punished! ”

Mrs. Pei bent down slightly, and returned a salute: "The night is long, and I am alone, and I always wake up very early, so there is nothing to wake up or not, anyway, I can't sleep well, so I came to the cross-courtyard where Fei'er lives to take a look." It's my sister, with Lang Jun's company, why did she get up so early? ”

Since traveling all the way east, Aitengna's Tang dialect has improved by leaps and bounds, and now she can easily understand the strong vinegar in Mrs. Pei's words.

She hurriedly lowered her head a little lower, what happened on the day the army returned to Tingzhou, Aitenggena firmly remembered it.

Mrs. Pei's hostility towards Xiao Langjun and herself, Ai Tenggena felt it clearly, and she even began to wonder recently whether the shocking incident that Xiao Langjun encountered outside Broken Leaf City was related to Mrs. Pei. It's just that she hasn't fully figured out the interpersonal relationships in Xiao Langjun's family, so she doesn't dare to inquire deeply.

Aitengana had heard from the little maids and servants that the three ladies of the back house were not very friendly at the moment.

Among them, Mrs. Pei is the daughter of the Pei family in Hedong, who is of noble birth and is a main family, and she gave birth to the eldest son, so her personality is naturally arrogant.

Mrs. Zhang was the side room that Ah Lang accepted when he came to Beiting to serve as the envoy of Xizhou's soldiers and horses, in order to make friends with the Wuwei Zhang family.

Although the Wuwei Zhang family is also considered to be a Longyou Wang family, after all, it is not as good as the Qinghe Zhang family, and it cannot be compared with the Pei family in Hedong and the Wang family in Taiyuan, and Mrs. Zhang is just a concubine in the family, so she has a very docile personality, and now there is only one daughter under her knees, and there is no interest entanglement between Mrs. Pei.

At that time, when there were only two Mrs. Pei and Zhang in the back house, it was very peaceful. Some of the older servants said that although Mrs. Zhang had a good temperament, Mrs. Pei still felt like a fish in her throat. However, she was born in a famous family and also understood that political marriages were inevitable, so she once asked Ah Lang to swear to heaven that except for Mrs. Zhang, she would not take any more concubines.

Unexpectedly, four years ago, that is, in the spring of the fourth year of Tianbao (745), when Ah Lang went to Chang'an to worship the saint and returned, he actually brought back Mrs. Cui and Xiao Langjun, who was only 6 years old.

Ah Lang said that Mrs. Cui was in the side room of Chang'an Na a long time ago, and he didn't want to bring Tingzhou, but the child was getting older and bigger, and he couldn't raise it himself if he wasn't around, and it was time to include the child in the family tree, so he brought the mother and son back to Tingzhou.

In the face of the sudden blow, Mrs. Pei was furious and had a big fight with Ah Lang, which is said to have almost evolved into a full-scale confrontation between the Pei family in Hedong and the Wang family in Taiyuan.

However, Ah Lang had a strong idea to include the mother and son in the family tree. At that time, Ah Lang had been promoted to the envoy of the Beiting Festival, not only becoming a prince of the Tang Dynasty, but also a celebrity around the prince of the East Palace. Facing Ah Lang, who has unlimited potential, the Pei family in Hedong had no choice but to pinch his nose and admit the matter after weighing it repeatedly.

Without the support of the family, Mrs. Pei can't make much trouble by herself, and she can only die down.

But after Mrs. Pei came here, she was very cold to Ah Lang, and she was also extremely hostile to Mrs. Cui, and the inner house of the envoy of the Beiting Festival was no longer peaceful.

And Ah Lang was also very distant from Mrs. Pei after that, and spent most of the month with Mrs. Cui, and he was even more fond of Xiao Langjun. This makes many maids feel quite sad, and when they talk about it, they inevitably sigh "Most men are negative men, and there are newcomers who forget the old ones!" ”

This newcomer, Mrs. Cui, is indeed a beautiful woman, and it is said that she is also the lady of the Cui family in Qinghe, but she has never seen anyone from the Cui family come to visit relatives......

Ayitengna was still in reverie when Mrs. Cui's words interrupted her thoughts of floating to the horizon.

In the face of Mrs. Pei's sarcastic and stinging, gun-and-stick cold words, Mrs. Cui's face remained unchanged, and she only replied respectfully: "Lang Jun went to the front office early in the morning to deal with official business, so my sister also got up early. ”

Mrs. Cui's humble and arrogant answer made Mrs. Pei feel that a punch had hit the air, and she did not achieve the expected attack effect at all, which made Mrs. Pei feel inexplicably uncomfortable, and she could only snort coldly.

When Ayitengna heard Mrs. Pei's cold snort, she wanted to bury her head in the cracks in the ground. She was worried that when Mrs. Pei couldn't find a target to attack, she would be angry with herself.

But this world is like this, the more you are afraid of something, the more you will come. Mrs. Pei didn't get any results from Mrs. Cui, so she pointed to Mei Xiang, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said, "Mei Xiang, tell me what happened just now, don't let people wronged you!" ”

Mei Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground and sifting chaff all over her body, after listening to Mrs. Pei's words, her eyes rolled, and she hurriedly replied: "Don't dare to hide the lady, after the talented Xiaolangjun got up, the slave maid came to tidy up the room and found that Yiyue, the little maidservant, was still sleeping soundly. The slave maid thought, how could there be such a maid to serve Xiao Langjun, so she asked her to get up, and taught her a few words on how to serve Xiao Langjun while helping her freshen up. It may be that the slave maid said it harshly, and after Cui Niangzi heard it outside the door, she mistakenly thought that the slave maid was bullying Yiyue, so she didn't ask to punish the slave and maid. The slave and maid are really wronged! ”

"Mei Xiang, get up. Yizuki, when did you get up?! Madame Pei immediately aimed her fire on Ayitengna.

"The slave has just woken up......," Aitengna knelt down and replied in a low voice.

"What time did the hail get up?" Mrs. Pei asked one question after another, like waves crashing against the reef in layers.

"Slaves don't know!" Aitengna's voice was barely audible.

"Be louder! I don't know if I thought that the inner house of the dignified North Court Festival envoy couldn't eat all day long! Mrs. Pei was very dissatisfied with Aitengna's low voice.

"The slave doesn't know when Xiao Langjun got up!" Aitengna replied in a loud voice.

"Sister, Empress Changsun's "Women's Rules" has a lot to say about the way to run a family. A certain talent, I have also read a few articles in the boudoir. I remember that the eldest grandson queen said that the family and the country are reasonable, and the most important thing is to listen to it. How could my sister punish Mei Xiang without listening to her explanation? Besides, Yiyue is indeed lazy, and it's not the first time I've heard someone say that she got up later than Fei'er, although our family is generous, but there is no reason why slaves and maids don't serve Lang Jun, I don't know if my sister thinks that a certain person is talking about it? Mrs. Pei turned to Mrs. Cui again.

Mrs. Cui smiled: "My sister is from a humble background, so her talent is naturally not as good as that of her sister." My sister has never read Empress Changsun's "Women's Rules" seriously, and she doesn't know anything about running a family and governing the country, so she doesn't dare to reason with her sister. But my sister knows one thing, and that is that seeing is believing. Shi Cai came to visit Fei'er, and saw Mei Xiang constantly tearing Yiyue's little lady's hair, if you look carefully at this moment, you should still be able to find Yiyue's hair on the carpet! ”

Aitengna glanced out of the corner of her eye, and really saw her own strand of hair that had been pulled off by Mei Xiang. When she saw the strand of hair, Ayitengna suddenly felt that her scalp was still aching.

"For an unbearable slave like Yiyue, it's not a big deal for Mei Xiang to instruct her and even punish her slightly, otherwise if everyone is so lazy, wouldn't the family be in chaos!" Mrs. Pei clung to Ayitengna's "laziness" and avoided Mrs. Cui's edge.

"Little lady Yiyue is different from ordinary slaves and maids......" As soon as Mrs. Cui spoke, she immediately paused, and then changed her words: "After all, she is still young, and she is the age of snooze, so she can't be demanding!" ”

Although Mrs. Cui had already hurriedly covered it up, Mrs. Pei was still keenly aware of something unusual: "Different? What's different about Itsuki! ”
