Listening to Dou Zhao's words, Shuangzhi looked at Dou Zhao's eyes with a little horror.

Dou Zhao didn't care.

As long as the mother and elders are not suspicious, no matter how much the servants talk about it, it is just talking.

Dou Zhao instructed Tuo Niang to carry him back to the house.

Xidou's personnel are simple, and although the tension on the side of Heshoutang makes the servants very nervous, it is far from the point of panic.

As soon as Shuangzhi said that Tu Niang and Vanilla would go to Dou Zhao's house on an errand, everyone's attention quickly turned to the two of them.

Some laughed and scolded: "Vanilla's little hooves, in the end, let her succeed." I don't know whose path to take? ”

More of them are courtesys to Tuo Niang, and they have introduced themselves "I am Ginkgo", "I am Lilac's mother in Chapter 10", and some people asked: "Which house did my sister originally work in on an errand, why was she suddenly transferred to the fourth lady's house?" ”

Tu Niang was not used to such enthusiasm, and muttered an answer.

Hearing that she was a rough maid in the pulp washing room, everyone looked at each other and was a little at a loss.

When Tuo Niang saw it, she was even more restrained.

"Alright," Shuangzhi smiled and relieved Toniang, "if you have anything to say, you'll talk about it later." Now let's settle down. Then he thought, "Sister Hanxiao and I still have two beds in the house, and Grandma Seven doesn't know when they will come back today, but Miss Fourth can't cut off people around her." I think I'll let Tuo Niang sleep in our room first, and wait for the seventh grandmother to show off. “

Toniang breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone also came back to their senses, or volunteered to help Toniang clean up her things, or took the initiative to help Toniang make the bed.

Tu Niang refused to leave Dou Zhao even a step: "Who is serving by Miss's side?" I'll wait for the vanilla to come. ”

Dou Zhao smiled slightly.

Tuo Niang admits death.

When she married to the Hou Mansion of Jining, her future was unknown, and she did not dare to bring Tu Niang over, and when she gained a firm foothold in the Hou Mansion of Jining and wanted to take Tu Niang over, Tu Niang died of illness.

Thinking of this, her mother had slightly red eyes and gently shook her mother's hand.

Tu Niang looked at her sternly and said solemnly: "Fourth Miss, don't worry, I will guard you every step of the way." It was as if everyone else was a bad guy, and the faces of the people in the room were all dark, and they were a little unkind when they saw Toniang's gaze, but Toniang didn't notice it, and stayed by her side with a straight face, unmoved.

Shuangzhi had no choice but to tell the maid to go to the pulp washing room to report the news, and clean up the place where the mother was resting.

Everyone went their separate ways, and no one accosted her anymore.

Dou Zhao and Tuo Niang stayed in the inner room with wide eyes.

After a while, Vanilla ran in: "Fourth Miss, Seventh Grandma and Grandma Yu are back!" ”

But he didn't mention his father.

Dou Zhao's heart sank and asked, "Father? ”

Vanilla wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "The seventh master, the old lady, the third master and the third wife are still in Heshoutang." ”

Are you discussing the matter of taking a concubine? Or are you discussing how to make your mother loosen?

Dou Zhao was a little anxious, got off the kang with the help of Tuo Niang, and ran out.

Toniang and Vanilla followed closely behind her.

The mother, who had a calm face, was supported by Mama Yu and walked in expressionlessly.

"Mother, mother!" Dou Zhao pounced.

The mother's face was slightly pale, she bent down and hugged Dou Zhao, kissed her little face, and then handed her to the smile behind her: "Accompany the fourth lady to play with the rope." ”

smiled and hurriedly hugged Dou Zhao. Dou Zhao pulled his mother's shirt and didn't let go.

The mother suddenly became very impatient: "You child, why are you disobedient? Mother still has something, you play with laughter. As he spoke, he raised his eyes and saw Tuo Niang and Vanilla, and raised his hand to the two of them, "Or, play with the two of them." ”

Dou Zhao knew that her mother was not in the mood to coax her now, so she obediently hugged Hanxiao, and when her mother and Mama Yu entered the inner room, she slipped down from Hanxiao's arms and ran to the inner room.

The maid on duty did not dare to stop her.

She went into the inner chamber without any problems.

The mother was lying on the kang table crying: "...... You have seen that the person has not yet entered the door, and he protects it like this, for fear that the person has suffered a little grievance. What else can I say. I did as he wanted and let the woman in! I want to see what skills that woman has, what means she uses, and how she can fascinate her parents, wife, children, and reputation! ”

Mama Yu's eyes flashed slightly, and she said in a low voice: "The seventh master takes a concubine, saying that it is not big, saying that it is not small, you see, do you send someone to say ...... to your uncle?"

"No way!" Without waiting for Mama Yu to finish speaking, her mother raised her head sharply and said urgently, "My brother is going to Beijing to participate in the Spring Festival at the beginning of the year, and he is studying behind closed doors at the moment." If I knew that I would have to take a concubine after only three years of marriage, with my brother's temper, he would never give up, and he couldn't delay his brother's future for my business. He repeatedly told Mama Yu, "You are the one who serves my mother, if it is something else, I will not care about what you do behind my back, I know that you are for my good." But this matter is not trivial. Our Zhao family has not been a jinshi for forty years. If something happens because of you, you will trap me in injustice and make me a sinner of the Zhao family for the ages! ”

Mama Yu nodded, turned around and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Is my uncle so good?

Dou Zhao pursed his lips and said to his mother secretly: You just go and disturb him. He was a jinshi of Ding Weike. And as soon as he got fame, he found a real shortage in the northwest, took his whole family to take office, and never returned to Zhending.

She only saw her uncle once on the day she got married.

Mother has an uncle. When she said goodbye to her relatives, she respectfully kowtowed to her uncle for her mother's sake.

Uncle Qing seemed to be very excited, looking at her gaze to give her the illusion that "my family has a girl who has just grown up". She was very happy at the time, thinking that her uncle was an official in the northwest, the distance was far away, the contact was inconvenient, and the stepmother only had her own brother in her eyes, and her uncle was a scholar, so he must be arrogant and unwilling to suffer this humiliation, so he did not go to the door of Dou's house. This time, her uncle rushed to see her off from his office, which shows that he still has her niece in his heart. She even planned to take the opportunity of this reunion to honor her uncle and let him tell her about her mother's past.

Unexpectedly, she went out on the front foot, and her uncle returned to the northwest on the back foot, and since then, there has been no word for her.

If the former uncle was afraid of his stepmother, then what was he afraid of after she married into the Marquis of Jining?

Dou Zhao couldn't figure it out.

Later, Zhao Biru, the eldest cousin of her uncle's family, lived with her husband in Kyoto, and once visited her and asked her to pass away with three cups of tea.

Can such a person be counted on?

Dou Zhao was suspicious, hiding behind the curtain of the floor cover, and pondered.

Since the mother agreed to the father's concubine, was the stepmother corrected?

But every time the stepmother said it, she said that she was "the Dou family is marrying and welcoming in with a sedan chair", and no one refutes her words!

The stepmother can dismiss her mother's loyal servants, she can threaten and lure the servants of the Dou family, and it is impossible for even those officials and wives in Zhending County to open their eyes and talk nonsense!

Is there a woman in the middle?

That's not right, my stepmother is happy when she enters the door, and her sister Dou Ming is only two years and seven months younger than her......

The more Dou Zhao thought about it, the more confused he became.

Walked in with a smile.

"Seventh Grandma," she said cautiously, "the third lady is here." ”

The mother hurriedly wiped away her tears, and while telling her to "quickly invite the three sisters-in-law to speak", she got up to greet her.

The third aunt walked in with a stern expression surrounded by two maids.

When she saw her mother, her eyes turned red, and she took her mother's hand and went to the kang.

And all the servants in the house obediently withdrew.

The third aunt didn't wait for Mama Yu to serve tea, and said, "I know you're sad." I don't advise you either, just cry if you want to. But after crying, you have to cheer up, look at Uncle Seventh like this, you still have a tough battle to fight in the future! ”

"I know!" Mother said, tears couldn't help falling again, she didn't complain, but said apologetically to the third aunt, "The third uncle, please also ask the third sister-in-law to help me say a few words." I was so angry that I would say those words to the third uncle. Please Sanbo, for the sake of me being young and not going through anything, don't worry about me in general! ”

"If you say that, you will see me and your third brother outside." The third aunt also cried, "Speaking of which, it's all your third brother's fault!" If it weren't for your third brother's recklessness, Uncle Seventh wouldn't have made such a fuss......"

"What does this have to do with Sanbo?" The mother sobbed and interrupted the third aunt's words, "It's from the brothers, but the third uncle treats 10,000 yuan as a son, what is the matter with 10,000 yuan, and the third uncle can still stand by and watch it?" Speaking of which, it's still 10,000 yuan, isn't it, he's obsessed...... I just hate ...... We grew up together, and in terms of affection, we should be better than other couples. He wants to take a concubine, why didn't he consult with me first? I didn't agree, and he knelt in the snow and didn't get up...... My father-in-law only added him at the age of forty-two, what did he think of me? And where did you put me? When I think about it, I feel cold......" I fell on the kang table and cried again.

"Don't cry, don't cry!" The third aunt hugged her mother, "This person has a lifetime, who doesn't have a ditch and a bump?" Uncle Seven is still young, and it is inevitable that there will be times when he is confused. I'm not afraid of your jokes, your uncle, that person should be calm and introverted, right? When I first entered the Jinshi, I didn't learn to publish books and take concubines, and my sister-in-law was also angry and cried at the time, but in a few years, you see, after that period of frivolity, I know that it is better to be at home, and I live with my sister-in-law wholeheartedly. The sister-in-law is almost forty years old, and she actually added Lan Ge'er...... It can be seen that sometimes, you can overcome rigidity with softness, and you can't be hard! ”

"I understand what the third sister-in-law said." Hearing this, the mother sat up straight, wiped her tears and said, "I have something to ask for the third sister-in-law." "I didn't continue this with my third aunt.

The third aunt was a little surprised, and hurriedly said, "You say, you say." As long as I can help. ”

"Since that woman is going to enter our door, why should I look at each other!" The mother said, "I want to ask the third sister-in-law and the eldest sister-in-law to accompany me when the time comes." ”

This was originally the rule of a large family, even if you agree to your husband's concubine, you have to look at the person first, if it is a dusty woman or has a flawed character, even if the wife refuses her husband's request, it is not among the "jealous". It's not as good as the outburst businessman, there's nothing to pay attention to, and you can take it home if you like it.

The third aunt suddenly realized: "Good, good, good." I'm going to talk to my sister-in-law. ”

"Then there is the third sister-in-law of Lao." Mother said, standing up, "I'll tell Wan Yuan and ask him to bring people from Kyoto to Matatsu." ”

The third aunt didn't answer, patted her mother's hand with a smile, and said, "The seventh brother and sister have also grown up!" ”

The tone was half emotional, half gratifying.
