Chapter Twenty-Three: This Feels Really Cool
The old lady's eyes tightened, and then she returned to normal: "Dongyuan and Xiyuan are all family, and that is why the Yao family values you." ”
Granny Qian got up and sat down again, her face flushed with joy: "Pingsuli, the eldest lady also occasionally invites me to drink tea in Xiyuan, and she likes to listen to me talk about some folk books." ”
Song Mingshi's face became more and more ugly, but he didn't say a word.
Granny Qian was still beaming at first, but in an instant she was full of sorrow: "Don't hide it from the old lady, the slave and maid are married to non-people, if it weren't for the sake of the children in the family, I really don't want to step into that house again." ”
"The old lady is kind and gives her subordinates three days off every month, and every time I go home for three days, I have a hard time, and I can't ignore it. My eldest son didn't learn well, and he learned all the bad virtues of his old son. ”
"I hurt when I gave birth, and the slave and maid can't help it."
Fu returned to his smiling face: "Fortunately, the slave and maid are lucky, and they come to such a slave and maid who treats their subordinates so well, and the slave and maid do not have to worry about food and clothing, and the people in the house are also stained." Even the eldest lady of Xiyuan took pity on the situation of the slave and maid, and often rewarded me with some broken silver or some clothing, so that the slave and maid could often ask someone to carry it home. ”
These words are undisguised, but they are indeed the truth.
The old lady said to her grandmother: "Go and seal five taels of silver to reward the nurse, and thank her for taking care of Brother Mo all these years." ”
Granny Qian got up and bowed.
The old lady said: "If you lack anything in the future, just open your mouth, Ming'er, you will go to the Wang family's courtyard as an errand and retreat." ”
Lady Qian took the money, kowtowed, and retreated.
The old lady picked up the teacup and groaned without speaking.
Song Mingshi was extremely distressed: "Mother, Su'e has been with me for more than ten years, although she comes from a humble background, her nature is not vicious, did her mother send a nurse to spy on her?" ”
The old lady said: "Count your heart, it is because you can trust the Wang family that you let the Wang family look at the nurse." ”
Song Mingshi suddenly realized that the old lady was not at ease with the nurse.
"Although the Wang family is not as generous as Lan Xin's knowledge, knowledge, reason, and generosity, there is only one thing that is desirable, that is, she was born poor, and she is extremely frugal in her daily life, and she has to ask about every detail, and she looks at the money lady, so that she will not always be stolen."
Song Mingshi let out a long breath: "When my mother said this, I was relieved." ”
The old lady's eyes were cold, and she said coldly: "Yao, the old man has underestimated her." ”
Song Mingshi was puzzled: "Half a year after I got married, she married her second brother. After getting married, my second brother and I lived separately from the East and West Gardens, and she didn't like to visit the door except for coming to my mother every day to say goodbye. ”
The old lady said: "She is a concubine in the family, and she must have suffered many grievances. Moreover, your second brother did not marry her voluntarily, but was pressured by her father's official position. She has only been in the mansion for a year, and your second brother accepted the Zhong family. ”
Song Mingshi smiled: "The second brother is an amorous person, not as wooden as me." It's just that it won't make the Yao family secretly reach out to Dongyuan. ”
The old lady said: "The nurse is a vulgar person who has no scheming, she is loyal to the house, I believe in her, but sometimes she will inadvertently leak the handle, Yao's shrewd and clever person, I am afraid that I heard something in the small talk with the nurse several times." ”
Song Mingshi clenched his fists: "Could it be that she dared to murder my child?" ”
The old lady said indifferently: "Don't worry, you tell the Wang family, don't send anything to the nurse to do, just let her go around the door idle." In plain life, Wang also gossiped nonsense with her. ”
Since the Yao family wanted to use the nurse to explore all kinds of details in Dongyuan, he asked the nurse to break it more.
The nurse will bring these gossips back and gossip with the Wang family, and she will always know what Yao's intentions are.
There is an old saying that you should be cautious in your words and deeds.
There is an old saying that if you say too much, you will lose.
……
In this compartment, Yu Qiao's eyebrows stretched, not at all like the pitiful appearance of the frightened bird just now.
Yumo held her face, distressed and blamed: "Every time you get to a critical juncture, you make a fool of yourself, do you really not take your life seriously?" ”
Yu Qiao also reached out to hold his face, coquettish: "I just like to see you nervous about me." ”
Yumo was annoyed.
Yu Qiao said: "Brother Mo, can you see the eyes of grandmother and father, they have been exchanging heart-to-heart words...... I mean the two of them have something on their minds and can't let anyone else know. ”
Men are not like women, so naturally they can't see those clues.
Yu Qiao continued: "Brother, don't underestimate your grandmother, she is better than anyone else. Many things, she just opened her eyes and closed her eyes, and got by. If you can secretly investigate, your grandmother will never put it in the open, and she has always had to maintain the stability and unity of the house. ”
Yumo's eyes are foggy, these eyes are too beautiful, and it is easy to distract Yuqiao.
She let go of the hand holding his face and said with a smile: "My brother reads more than me, but he doesn't know people's hearts better than me." ”
Yumo looked deeply into her eyes. These eyes are too clear, and too deep.
Suddenly, I was in a trance, where did this wisdom that transcended age itself come from?
She suddenly leaned her head on his chest, and said coquettishly: "Brother Mo, you just need to study hard, I have Watson and Cui'er, it's okay." ”
By the way, although grandmother loves Yuqiao, she is also too responsive......
He frowned and looked at Watson standing in the doorway.
A seventeen-year-old boy with a long and tall head, like a sword that hides its edge.
Such a person, by Yu Qiao's side, should rest assured.
Or should you be worried?
As soon as Yumo left, Yu Qiao jumped off the bed, and said with a fluttering eyebrow: "Grandmother Ming'er sent a girl over, and you don't need to do the chores in this yard, you two only need to follow the old paper in the future...... Follow Miss Ben to eat and drink spicy food, this feels really refreshing......"
From time to time, the young lady would go crazy and speak bird language that they didn't quite understand......
Whatever, as long as she's alive......
Yu Qiao stopped his jumping feet, stood still in front of Watson, looked at him in a daze, and saw his heart beat and start drumming.
After a long time, she said, "Can you go and find some hairs for Miss Ben, with a little hardness of hair." ”
Cui'er asked, "Miss, what do you want those things for?" ”
You don't understand, what do you care about old paper?
Watson didn't ask much, went straight out, and came back after a cup of tea, with some horsehair in his hand.
Yu Qiao rummaged through Cui'er's sewing basket for a while, found a pair of scissors, and cut the manes into half-inch-long sections.
Watson and Cui'er looked at her, but they felt that Miss had behaved abnormally since she came back to life, so they followed her.
I only listened to her instructions without looking back: "There is a bamboo forest planted in the yard, Watson will go and cut one for me." ”
Watson went out again and cut the bamboo and came in. looked at Cui'er, who was holding a kitchen knife in her hand and had a disgraced face.
