Cao Mansion, Mei Courtyard, Upper Room.

There is an offering table in the middle hall, and there are two tablets in the middle, the left side is written "Fu Jingming's position", and the right side is written "Grandma Niu's position". Because I want to hide the matter of Ningchun, I use words to replace my name at will. This "Grandma Niu Clan" is the main mother of the Tian family, the Niu Co Lu clan who swallowed gold and martyred.

Tian was dressed in filial piety clothes, took the hands of the two brothers, Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng, knelt down in front of the tablet, and kowtowed to incense. Zuo Zhu and Zuo Cheng have just lived for a long time, and they are kneeling unsteadily with their mothers, looking at them with curious eyes. Zuo Cheng was the most naughty, and when he saw the fruit on the table, he stretched out his little hand and babbled.

Tian wiped the tears on his face, took his son's little hand and got up, and gave up the worship position to Cao Hao and his wife.

Cao Hao picked up the wine jug on the table and poured three glasses of wine.

Picking up the first glass of wine, Cao Hao's hand shook, only to feel that his heart was unstoppable. Although Ning Chun has a baby face, among his best friends, he is the same age as Yongqing and six years older than Cao Hao. If he were alive, it would be his twenty-sixth birthday.

In the eyes of everyone, although Cao Hao is a young man and an old man, Ning Chun always treats him as if he is his own brother. Whether it is in Jiangning or in the capital, the relationship between the two is the most intimate.

Now, he has been wronged, and Cao Hao, who is a friend and a brother, wants to show Xue for him, but he is powerless.

At this moment, Cao Hao only felt unstoppable with shame, his face flushed, and his chest was so stuffy that people wanted to go crazy.

With a gloomy face, he poured the first glass of wine on the ground, and said in his heart: "Ning Chun, I have made amends for you!" Don't worry, there will always be a saying, I will let your blood and bones return to the sect, so that the grievances of the Ning family can be washed away! ”

He picked up the second glass of wine, looked at the tablet of Niu Colu, and was full of admiration for this fierce Manchurian woman. In any case, if a wife is like this, what more can a husband ask for.

In the third glass of wine, he glanced at the Tian family standing next to him, and sighed in his heart. This cup is Jing Ningchun's favorite concubine Qiu Niang, the two are so affectionate, if it is under the Yellow Spring, if the deceased has a spirit, they will finally be able to stay together.

After Cao Hao toasted, Chu Yu stepped forward, stood side by side with Cao Hao, and solemnly offered incense.

After the worship, Cao Hao didn't stay long, let Chu Yu stay to talk to Tian, and went to the study in the front yard by himself. His heart was a little chaotic, he felt very conflicted, and he wanted to be quiet for a while.

Because Chu Yu had a body, Tian was afraid that she would be tired, so he hurriedly asked her to sit down on the kang in the inner room. The two brothers Zuo Cheng and Zuo Zhu were naughty and wanted to climb on Chu Yu, but Tian was busy shouting ** to hug the two down.

Chu Yu looked at her concerned appearance, and said with a smile: "Don't get in the way, they are just a little bit bigger, and they can weigh a few catties!" ”

Tian personally packed a few dried fruits and brought them over, and said, "Don't you dare to let him mess around, grandma is only a few months ago, and the most important thing is that." When I was in Hejian, I was negligent and fell ill, and I tossed for a long time. ”

Chu Yu knew that she had good intentions, so she didn't say much, and changed the topic: "Didn't the little sister-in-law mention a few days ago that she wanted to go to the temple to do a Dharma for Ning Ye, I told the uncle and asked someone to go outside to ask." It was cold a year ago, and when the weather was good in the first month, it was good for my sister-in-law to take her two nephews out for a walk! ”

"It's really annoying to uncle and grandmother!" Tian's face showed gratitude, and when she said this, she remembered something, and she said again: "Just ask the uncle and grandmother to have mercy on the slave family's sincerity, and the money for doing things is still from the slave family!" Our mother, who was taken in and sheltered by Uncle and Grandma, is already a great kindness, where is it so cheeky and annoying! ”

Chu Yu saw that she was so uncomfortable, and said with a smile: "Little sister-in-law, you don't have to be like this!" The year before last, Ning's sister-in-law left that floating wealth, and the sister-in-law handed it over to the uncle. The uncle took half of it and sent it to the south to buy shares, and the remaining half thought about buying an estate for his two nephews in the capital. I found a few Zhuangzi and didn't have a suitable one, and I want to see the land price next spring. The sister-in-law's current expenses are not in the public office, they are all the uncle's self-esteem. Uncle and Uncle Ning have the thickest feelings, and they only treat the sister-in-law as if they were their own sisters-in-law, and the sister-in-law doesn't have to go to her heart because of some unreasonable words. ”

Cao Hao and Chu Yu have treated Tian in the past two years, Tian himself knows in his heart, but in the past six months, some gossip has been spreading, which makes her, an honest person, feel very guilty and uneasy.

Tian was a little stupid, although he wanted to apologize, but he didn't know what to say, and his eyes turned red in his eagerness.

Chu Yu only thought that she was thinking about Ning Chun, afraid that she would be worried and hurt, so she persuaded: "The deceased is gone, and you still have to look at the living." The two nephews are healthy now, and they will be productive when they grow up. Isn't it better to pull them up than anything else? Even under Uncle Ning's nine springs, he will also miss his sister-in-law. ”

Tian nodded and said, "Yes, the children are the most important. Speaking of this, I still have to thank my uncle and grandmother for their kindness. It's okay to live on the left, it's a sufficient weight; Zuo Cheng has been like a kitten since he was a child, and he has to be well conditioned by medicine, so he has the appearance he has today. Not to mention anything else, it's the medicine used this year, and it's enough to make a gold man. The slave family handed over the floating wealth to the uncle, not to ask the uncle to take care of it, but to make up for the money to buy medicine. ”

Although Tian is just a domestic slave, he also has a surname Gang and does not like to take advantage. Zuo Cheng landed on his own, from the capital to Jiangning, Cao Hao made people ask for it, and good medicine was continuously sent to Yizhou. There are some of them that Tian has never heard of at all.

The Cao family is not a wealthy family, and Cao Hao and Chu Yu are only four dishes per meal. Tian was uneasy, so he sent the bag of gold and jade jewelry that Lin Ding left her to Cao Hao.

Where will Cao Hao accept this? But he couldn't stand Tian's hard begging, so he accepted it, but he didn't use it as medicine according to Tian's words, but sent the jewelry that was not easy to split to Wei Xin, Guangdong, and melted all the gold ornaments into gold ingots.

Even if he didn't have this floating wealth, Cao Hao had already planned to buy some properties for the two brothers Zuo Cheng and Zuo Zhu in a few years. They are Ning Chun's sons, not the Cao family's house slaves, and there is no reason to send people under the fence forever. Although he can take care of their mother and son for a while, he must always make a thorough preparation, Chu Yu and Tian were chatting about their daily routines, and they heard the sound of footsteps on the ground.

But the little walnut came in with a white face, lost his soul, saw Chu Yu and Tian, didn't care about saluting, and choked and said: "Mother, where is the slave maid?" ”

Chu Yu and Tian were puzzled when they saw her shocked like this, and Tian asked, "What's wrong with the little walnut?" Didn't you go with the two aunts to learn the rules, this ...... Is this scolded? ”

Little Walnut shook her head, her eyes were already full of tears, and her eyes looking at Chu Yu and Tian were also a little afraid, and she couldn't help but take a step back.

Little Walnut's mother-in-law, Sister-in-law Yang, was doing needlework in the East House, when she heard the movement, she couldn't help frowning when she saw Little Walnut so out of shape: "How old are you, it's all grandma who indulges you, and it's getting more and more unruly!" ”

When Little Walnut saw Sister-in-law Yang, as if she had seen a savior, she immediately pounced and cried: "Mother, mother, let's not be slaves, right?" I'm so scared, I'm so afraid, don't let the little walnut be beaten to death, and don't be dragged out! As he spoke, his body was already trembling, and tears were falling.

Sister-in-law Yang only regarded it as two aunts who taught the rules, bluffed the little walnut, and said angrily: "Silly Nizi, that's the aunts who are bluffing you, the uncles and grandmothers are all compassionate, don't say these nonsense!" ”

When the little walnut heard this, her head rattled like a rattle, and she choked up and said: "It's not what the aunts said, it's what the daughter saw with her own eyes, the spider girl in Huaiyuan was beaten to death by the second wife, and she said that she would kill the dragonfly girl too!" ”

"What?" Chu Yu and Tian were shocked when they heard this, and they both got up from the kang.

Tian's eyes widened and he asked, "This, is this true?" ”

Little Walnut cried and nodded: "Well, really, the slave saw it with her own eyes." The slave maid came back from learning the rules from the aunts, thinking that the slave maid had asked the slave maid to go to the dragon girl in Huaiyuan to get a few tricks in the morning, so she went to Huaiyuan. Because the gate was open, the slave and maid went in, and before they could call out, they heard the movement of the second wife.

The second wife has always been powerful, and the slave was afraid, so she hid behind the door. The second wife entered the courtyard and dragged people out of the dragon's house and the spider girl's house, saying that the sisters did not go to greet her, and that they were cheap maids who did not know the rules.

The dragonfly girl was not in the house, and the spider girl was dragged out, but it was...... But I don't know when my belly is bigger. The second wife was so angry that she couldn't do it, and Mama Zhang said that this would ruin the future of the second master.

The second wife, Miss Dao Spider, treated her master disrespectfully, ordered someone to slap her, and beat her board. The spider girl first begged for mercy, and then tore her feet to run outside, saying that she was going to Wutong Garden to find the dragon girl. was stopped by two daughters-in-law and didn't run out.

The second wife asked someone to gag her mouth, and Mama Zhang kicked her stomach...... The spider girl remained motionless, as if she were ...... It looks like it's out of gas...... The second wife sent someone to look for the dragon girl in the Wutong Garden, and the slave maid was so frightened that she took advantage of them to enter the house and went out of the yard...... Whining...... It's all bloody ......" In the end, the little walnut couldn't cry.

Although the Tian family was born as a slave, he had only heard of this kind of cane killing. Chu Yu grew up in the palace, and although the Fujin people would not punish her subordinates in front of her, they had heard of it, but they didn't expect it to happen to the Cao family.

Because Cao Hao himself is a benevolent person, Chu Yu's punishment of the people in the inner house rarely beats and scolds. Now, it's not just a jade spider, listening to the meaning of Xiao Walnut's words, it is the result of one corpse and two lives.

Chu Yu was stunned, and he couldn't imagine why Zhaojia's family was so hot, so he heard footsteps in the courtyard again, it was Xiyun who came with Aunt Luo and Aunt Chang.

Xiyun also had a little anxiety on his face, entered the house, and after the Okita clan saluted, he said to Chu Yu: "Gege, the jade dragon just came to look for Gege, saying that he had something to ask for Gege, but he was called by the second wife's people just now." Looking at that, I'm afraid that the second wife is going to have a seizure! ”

Chu Yu thought of the jade spider who didn't know life and death, and said, "I know, the second wife is in Huaiyuan, I'll go over and take a look!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Aunt Luo say: "Gege, this is not in accordance with the rules, since the second wife is here, there is no reason for Gege's sister-in-law to take care of the affairs of the brother's house!" ”

Chu Yu nodded and said, "Auntie, I know this reason. However, the jade spider and the jade dragon are used by the uncle's side, so it is not good to stand by and let the second wife do it. The two of them had a mistake, and it was really difficult to explain it to the second master. Uncle loves this younger brother the most, and he is a kind person. Although it is a housework, the trouble will go out, and an impeachment that is not strict in governing the family and indulging in abuse of relatives will not be able to escape! ”

Although Chu Yu was right, Aunt Luo still persuaded: "Even so, there is no need to come forward, the slaves and maids just run away!" Gege doesn't have to be usual now, with a double body, he has to be taboo. There are some things that you can't see, and some things you can't listen to, otherwise if you have it, who can take care of it? ”

Chu Yu is less than three months pregnant, and she has not yet sat down in the fetus, not to mention that Aunt Luo and Aunt Chang are stopping, even if the Tian family is in trouble, they are also prevented from going.

Chu Yu touched her belly, and when she saw that the big guys were blocking her from passing, she didn't dare to delay any longer, for fear that the jade dragon would make a mistake, so she said to Aunt Luo and Aunt Chang: "Since this is the case, then I will ask the two aunts!" No matter what mistakes the jade spider makes, it is a surname after all, and it can be saved; The jade dragon has always been honest, and now it must be tired of the pond fish, and the two aunts please help me more! ”

Aunt Luo and Aunt Chang went down in response, and Chu Yu sat on the side of the kang. It's not that she's ruthless, but in an instant, she also has a choice. This filial piety period made a child, which is really a scandal for the Cao family. Even if it was the younger brother in the second room who made the mistake, Cao Hao, the elder brother, had to bear the sin of "neglecting to teach".

Chu Yu calmed down and said to Tian: "Little sister-in-law, this matter has to be stopped, it is really not appropriate to make a noise!" ”

Tian heard Chu Yu's meaning, and said to Sister-in-law Yang: "I heard what Grandma said, the little walnut was frightened, take it down and coax it well, remember to rot this matter in your heart!" ”

Sister-in-law Yang cursed and swore and went down with the little walnut......
