Chapter 25: Mother and Daughter Gossip
Hearing Yan Ke's ask about the maid who accompanied the marriage, Yan Su couldn't help choking, and in her impression, the maids and women brought to the house were all transferred away by the Xiao family.
In the end, there was only one Lan Xin left, but the day she crossed over to the Hou Mansion, Lan Xin was gone.
Yan Su estimated that since the Xiao family hated the original owner so much, then these maids and wives would not end well, if they guessed correctly, they were afraid that they would all die now.
Seeing Yan Su's expression, even if Yan Su didn't say it, Yan Keshi guessed the probability, her brows furrowed tightly, and she was worried about her daughter.
I have long heard that the people in the Hou Mansion are not easy to get along, but now that it is so, it seems that the daughter's marriage is only afraid that something will happen.
"If you go back this time, my mother will send you two more people, right? In any case, you can't be without someone to serve. ”
Without asking those people again, Yan Keshi took Yan Su's hand and asked her opinion.
"Mother, no need, I can take care of myself, besides, I also have people around me who are serving." Although the person who serves you can't be trusted, it's enough to help you do things.
"Someone to serve?" Yan Keshi's face showed surprise, could it be that he guessed wrong just now?
"Well, if someone is waiting for me, don't worry." Nodding, Yan Su smiled and spoke.
When her daughter said so, Yan Keshi had no choice but to nod, there are not many people in the house who have to use it, and if she sends it to her daughter again, she can only send the old people around her.
"Su Su, you tell your mother the truth, you ......" originally wanted to ask between her daughter and Shen Houye, but when she saw her husband sitting in the room, Yan Keshi looked at Yan Zhe, "Master, I'll say something considerate to my daughter, you go to the study to read the book first." ”
Yan Keshi said this, Yan Zhe nodded, what women want to say, he is really not good here as a man, although he is Yan Su's husband and wife, but in front of him, it is not good to speak.
Watching Yan Zhe go out, Yan Keshi retracted his gaze and looked at Yan Su again, "Su Su, you tell your mother the truth, are you and Shen Hou Ye a husband and wife?" ”
Hearing Yan Keshi ask like this, Yan Su was stunned for a moment, and then blushed a little.
Although she came from modern times and had been in love in her previous life, in the end, she was still a girl, and some things she hadn't experienced yet.
came to ancient times, according to the memory of the original owner, she also saw that Marquis Shen on the wedding night, and after that, she never saw it.
In other words, now that Marquis Shen is standing in front of Yan Su, Yan Su has not seen that he can know him.
"I'm your mother, what's so shy with me, is there any?" Although she saw her daughter blushing, Yan Keshi didn't intend to let it go, she stared at Yan Su and asked again.
Seeing Yan Keshi ask again, Yan Su shook his head, Yan Keshi frowned, and his face was a little bad.
"This Marquis Shen is too much, but your father is also a second-class member of the court, even if our family is really not as good as other people's families, we shouldn't treat you like this!"
When Yan Su was given marriage, Yan Ke inquired about it, there were four concubines in the Hou Mansion, all of them were as beautiful as flowers, not only that, but this Hou Mansion was also the head of the concubine room.
Such an environment already made Yan Keshi very dissatisfied, if it weren't for the holy will, she would never let her daughter marry into the Hou Mansion.
For the sake of his daughter, Yan Keshi really put a lot of thought into it, knowing that the concubine had not yet conceived and given birth to a child, which made Yan Keshi feel a little relieved.
Yan Keshi thought that as long as his daughter gave birth to the eldest son, then her position in the Hou Mansion would naturally be stable, even if she was in charge of the concubine now, it would be fine.
But Yan Keshi didn't expect that his daughter had been married for more than four months, and she hadn't had a round house with Shen Xiao, so how could her eldest son be born?
"Is the Hou Mansion still the head of the concubine now?" Speaking again, Yan Keshi asked Yan Su.
"Well, the head of the Xiao family." Yan Su nodded, in the current situation, even if she was the main lady of the Hou Mansion, it was just a false name.
Hearing Yan Su say this, the expression on Yan Ke's face became more and more ugly, the dowry brought by his daughter can be handled by everyone, if it goes on like this, it won't be long before her daughter's status is not guaranteed.
"Mother, don't worry, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, I believe there is always a way."
At the moment, Hou Ye Shen Xiao has not come back, it is useless to think too much, only when he comes back, he finds a way to get in touch with it, and understands, can he think about what to do next.
Yan Su said this, Yan Keshi thought about it carefully, and it was true, but there were some things that still had to be said.
"Even if the concubine is in charge, you must also know that you are the orthodox lady of the Hou Mansion, don't let a concubine press on your head."
For so many years, because Yan Zhe has never taken a concubine or had a room, Yan Ke's life is very comfortable, and she doesn't need to face the intrigues of those wives and concubines.
It's just that when she was still a girl at home, she did experience things in the house, so she still has experience.
After listening to Yan Keshi's words, Yan Su nodded, "Mother, don't worry, even if she has the upper hand at the moment, Feng Shui always takes turns." ”
"You have a charter in your heart, I can rest assured, if you encounter something, don't hide it yourself, come back and talk to your mother, maybe your mother can help you come up with ideas."
"I know." In response, Yan Su suddenly thought of his dowry, and he would return to Yan's mansion because of the dowry.
Speaking of which, it is not easy for Yan Su to leave the mansion, she knows that the Xiao family must be staring at her Jingyuan all the time, but she doesn't care, there are Lian and Yao at the moment, although I don't know how the Yao family is, but if there is anything, the Lian family will definitely not care.
Before, because of the dowry, Yan Su couldn't help but think of her mother's family, she thought about it for a few days, and when Lian came to Jingyuan, she said what she thought.
After listening to Yan Su, the Lian family did not object, after all, Yan Su is different from them, even if she is not favored and not in power, she is also the lady of the main room.
Because of this, under the arrangement of the Lian family, Yan Su returned to Yan's mansion.
Although the daughter who marries out spills the water, there is no problem with the daughter occasionally going back to her parents' house to see.
Of course, this is only limited to Yan Su, and it is not easy for the Lian family to go back to their parents' house, that is, the New Year's Festival, with the permission of Hou Ye Shen Xiao, they can only go back to their parents' house to see, otherwise, they can only stay in the house and miss their families.
But it's not that you can't see it at all, if the family comes, you can still see each other.
"Mother, when I got married, did I have a lot of dowry? I was sick in the Hou Mansion before, and I can't remember some things. ”
His dowry should naturally be remembered, but Yan Su is not the original owner, and it is normal not to remember.
It is not easy to find Yanfu today.
"No wonder you have lost so much weight, it turns out that you are sick, alas! Your time in the Hou Mansion must have been difficult, but it's a pity...... It's a pity that my mother can't do anything. ”
Sighing, Yan Keshi talked about Yan Su's dowry, and Yan Su noticed that Yan Ke's Yan Zhong was guilty.
"You also know what your father is like, in our house, if I don't manage it, I'm afraid that this house won't be able to be saved."
"Although you are married, there is nothing to marry in the house, or I begged your grandfather's house, so I got you some dowry, but there is nothing valuable, that is, a few pieces of cloth, and a few pieces of jewelry, and the rest of the boxes, which contain bedding and books, are not valuable."
After saying that, Yan Keshi frowned and looked at Yan Su, "What?" Your dowry is not in your hands? ”
"It was said that it was burned by the Xiao family, and there is nothing valuable, so I want to ask if there is any?"
Without concealing it, Yan Su told Yan Keshi about the dowry.
"Burned? Then Xiao's courage is really big, doesn't Hou Ye care? After listening to Yan Su, Yan Ke's brows furrowed even deeper, even if the dowry was not valuable, it was also the dowry of the lady of the main room, where was the turn of the concubine to burn it.
"It's already burned, and at the moment, it's not suitable to collide with her head-on, if it's worthless, I can feel better."
Yan Su said this, Yan Keshi couldn't help but sigh, she knew that what her daughter said was right.
"There's nothing left, don't you have any money left? You wait. ”
Standing up, Yan Keshi walked to the door, looked outside, and saw that there was indeed no one, so he entered the inner room.
Seeing Yan Keshi enter the inner room, Yan Su was a little strange, she stood up and followed into the inner room.
"You take these, there is not much left in my mother's hand, this is fifty taels of silver, although the money is not much, but I can save an emergency." Seeing Yan Su coming over, Yan Keshi handed Yan Su a purse and said to Yan Su.
Hearing Yan Keshi say this, Yan Su opened his purse, and there were some scattered pieces of silver in it.
"You also know your father's temperament, there is no money left at home, you can only barely support it, this money, my mother has saved for a long time, your father doesn't know, my mother usually does embroidery work, my mother's embroidery work is good, and the work done can earn some silver."
"Besides, after all, my mother is the daughter of a merchant, so she knows how to manage the store and read the accounts, and she will also take the account books of several stores on weekdays, so she can save some money."
Even though Yan Keshi used to be the daughter of a merchant and brought a lot of dowries when she married into the Yan family, after so many years, those dowries were almost used.
Right now, she only has sixty or seventy taels of silver left in her hand, and she wanted to give it to Yan Su, but thinking of her husband's temperament, she had to leave some emergencies in this family, so she gave most of it to Yan Su, and she only left more than ten taels of silver.
Even if it is sixty or seventy taels, Yan Keshi has been saving for a long time.
"Mother, you can keep this money, I'll figure it out myself." I didn't expect it to be so difficult, at this time, Yan Su's heart was extremely dissatisfied with his cheap father.
"Listen to my mother's words, take it, you are in the Hou Mansion, and you will inevitably need to use some money, but unfortunately, my mother's dowry is almost classic, and I really can't help you."
Stuffing the purse into Yan Su's hand, Yan Keshi sighed.
After so many years, life has been like this, she has not regretted it, but Yan Zhe is really good to her, and the two have been in a relationship for so many years, even if they regret it, thinking about the children, Yan Keshi also suppressed the idea of regret.
Now she only hopes that her husband's temperament can be more restrained, and her children will be safe and sound, and their lives will be smoother.
