The maidservant Rika is standing on the edge of the kang. Holding a small lacquered tea tray. A small cover clock on the plate. Yu Meiniang was about to take the tea from her hand, and when she saw Qiao Siwan coming, her face had already changed to a smile. Said: "It's a cold day. It's hard for Wan'er to think about coming, so let's get on and sit down. ”

Qiao Siwan smiled slightly. walked over and said, "Is my mother better?" ”

Yu Meiniang said: "It's already good, and thank you for remembering it together." ”

Qiao Siwan sat on the edge of the kang. Yu Meiniang just wanted to say something, but suddenly coughed, and Qiao Siwan was busy

stepped forward to help her get along, and took the tea handed over by Lixiang, poured it into the lid of the tea cup and tasted a little, seeing that the temperature was suitable, she sat on the kang and helped Yu Meiniang to serve her to taste tea. Whoever sees it will think that she is the biological daughter of his stepwife.

Mother Wang saw that her heart was actually complicated and indescribable. Now everyone in the house says that the eldest lady has a good character. Be open-minded. Quiet temper. looks unconventional, and the second lady Qiao Ke is far from enough. Only the husband is clear in the people's spirit. The eldest lady understands that she is the most vicious and powerful with a smile on her face. The ancients couldn't catch the slightest sore spot in her, so how could it be good to go on like this." smiled at the moment: "The eldest lady is the most gentle and compassionate." I think I'm used to doing it at the old lady's side. ”

Qiao Siwan glanced back at Wang's mother. nodded and said, "My mother is not in good health, and she is pregnant with her younger brother." You can't serve in front of your grandmother. As a daughter, I naturally have to do my filial piety for her. Mother Wang, don't you say? ”

Mother Wang's expression was grim, she glanced at the gloomy Yu Meiniang, lowered her head and smiled: "Yes." That's what the eldest lady said. I wanted to sarcastically say that she was the pug next to the old lady, but she alluded to the fact that the lady should have gone to the old lady to make rules, and everyone knew that the lady had not gone to the old lady to serve the eldest lady for a long time since she was pregnant, and she refused to eat at all.

"That's right. Mother. I almost forgot about business, the fifth day of mid-spring is my grandmother's birthday. I wrote a longevity character. When the time comes, I will make a birthday gift for my grandmother. I just don't know if this painting is in line with her old man's affection, so I have to ask my mother to help me get a proposition. Qiao Siwan smiled. It's as if nothing happened to the right talent.

"You need to ask your father about this kind of thing. Where do I understand. Yu Meiniang said with a smile, and her heart said a word of longevity. How can I get a birthday gift, I actually look down on it in my heart.

"That's what my mother said. Shicai's daughter has already asked her father to come here. I asked him and my mother to help me make a judgment, and I looked forward to my grandmother's porridge. Qiao Siwan said.

Yu Meiniang still had a smile on her face. It's strange inside. What is her true intention? Why do you want to ask Qiao Li to judge with you, is there something else in this? She thought about it for a while, and she kept the door closed. In fact, there was no pain in her hand. It's a little more reassuring.

Qiao Siwan and Yu Meiniang said a few more understatements. Then I saw the curtain lifted. Jiao Xing rushed in

"Madame!" Her face was pale, but her eyes were strikingly bright. The whole face has an open-minded look. The little maid who came in after her was sweaty. Radiant and frightened: "Madam." The slave and maid could not stop it.

"What does this look like! I'm still annoyed to pull it out! "I just sent someone to report Jiao Xingfu's salary, and she decided to get married. She rushed in, and there was no merit! Wang's mother was annoyed. instructed the maidservant to pull her out.

Jiao Xing's apricot eyes are round and apricot eyes are round and open. Said: "Who dares to touch me!" "She used to be the big girl ring next to the Jiang family. The most favored and ferocious, and when she got here, she continued to rely on Mrs. Shangshu, and Yu Meiniang relied on her a lot. Who in the Fury House won't let her score three points? At this time, seeing her looking wild, everyone else was stunned for a while. I don't know what to do.

"Wan'er, my mother has something to deal with, you can come back first." Yu Meiniang saw Qiao Siwan standing aside. It's not good to break out directly, I want to send her away first.

"Mother, what's wrong?" Qiao Siwan showed a strange expression, her eyes were shining, but she seemed to be a little aggrieved. "Is there anything else we can't say about between our mother and daughter?"

The hand that Yu Meiniang placed on the side of her skirt was firmly clenched into a fist. It didn't hurt when the nails were pinched in the flesh, but he smiled on his face: "What did Wan'er say?" It's as if my mother has something to hide from you. That's it. Jiao Xing. If you have something to say, just say it. ”

"Madame!" Jiao Xing fell to her knees with a pop. "The slave refused to marry Miao Shi's son.

As soon as the words came out, the air in the room suddenly became strange.

Yu Meiniang's voice was as cold as frost: "Jiaoxing, I have something to discuss with the eldest lady today, you have something to talk about later!" ”

"Madame!" Jiao Xing jerked up. "Ma'am. Didn't my master send me to be a daughter-in-law to a son who was doing errands, didn't she tell you? Her chin was pointed, now raised, and her eyes were filled with irritated emotion, "She's asking me to worry about Madame." Serve the master!

"You girl—" Wang's mother's eyes widened. Looking at Jiao Xing in disbelief, "You." You are crazy to say such a thing in front of your lady's eyes! ”

Qiao Siwan looked at Yu Meiniang with a calm face, and her expression suddenly turned white. She turned to look at Jiao Xing, and said slowly: "Second aunt sent you here, just to serve my mother well, what are you talking about?" ”

Jiao Xing's eyes were filled with indescribable firmness: "The slave maid was indeed sent to support his wife." But the slave's deed of sale is still in the Hou Mansion, that is, the lady wants to marry me arbitrarily. The second lady of the Hou Mansion knows that she is not dependent! ”

"Therefore. What do you want? Qiao Siwan's voice was word by word. Gently falling back into the house, gently blowing like the east wind, but strangely with a seductive force.

The hesitation on Jiao Xing's face only flashed. She came to this house. It's because Jiang Shi promised her aunt's place. That half master! She's not here to be a daughter-in-law to a little housekeeper! Think of what Ruby said. She became more and more determined. Said loudly: "The slave begs the lady for a favor, if the lady dislikes the slave and the maid." Let the slave go back to the Hou Mansion! ”

"Bold!" Yu Meiniang was so angry that her expression turned blue, and Mother Wang hurriedly went up and patted her chest gently, and said, "Madame is still pregnant." Take care. Don't spoil your mood for this little prodigal hoof! After speaking, she said sharply to Jiao Xing: "What does Madame think of you after you come to the mansion." You ungrateful, white-eyed wolf! If it weren't for Madame protecting you. Do you allow you to be arrogant in this house? , and now the party is stiff. I dare to do it against my wife! ”

Jiao Xing was stunned for a moment, a trace of fear flashed on her face, Qiao Siwan sighed, and said, "Ms. Jiao Xing." See what you say? Although Miao Shishi's son is married to you to fill the house. But in the end he followed his father's back. How can you be wrong if you marry him? My mother thinks about you with all her heart. You'll have to think it through. ”

Filling the house? Jiao Xing's eyes were about to burst into flames. She's so good-looking. I don't know how many things to do in the Hou Mansion to ask for marriage. Why do you have to come here to fill in someone's house? "The slave and maid will not do it. Even Madame can't force it! ”

Rika has followed Yu Meiniang for many years. Know her character. I can't bear to see Jiao Xing being punished in the future. Hurriedly went up and grabbed her, and said, "Sister Jiaoxing, don't talk to Mrs. like this"

Jiao Xing thought that she had overheard, and Yu Meiniang said that she wanted to find someone honest and reliable in Yahuan. My heart suddenly became annoyed. A handful of hands that dropped off Rika. said coldly: "Don't be pretty, when who doesn't know, you are so steady and fearful, don't you want Mrs. to think that you are obedient and dexterous, and you will climb to the master as an aunt in the future?" ”

Rika was shocked, and then she didn't dare to trust her ears, and she was Meiyi Meiyi to help her. On the contrary, she was so misunderstood! Earnestness is something that a good person can't do! As soon as she raised her eyes, she saw Yu Meiniang's cold eyes like a poisonous snake shooting towards her, and she quickly knelt down and fell to the ground with a slight depity. Said: "Madame spares her life, the slave and maid dare not have such a mentality!" ”

Jiao Xing said disregardlessly: "Madam, the slave and maid were sent over from the Hou Mansion, and the slave and maid continued to serve you with all their heart. Day and night by your side. For you to share your worries and relieve your labor, hard work, so that there is no labor performance is also two points of affection, how can you give slaves and maids to others to fill the house. This is a loss of affection for the slave master. She pulled out her handkerchief and began to sob. Madam. The slave and maid did not intend to go against your intentions, but they were actually reluctant to leave your side, and the mother Wang in this courtyard was old, and the other maids were weak in nature. Even in the future, if your wife is oppressed, there will be no one to say a word of justice for you! For the sake of the slave and maid to share your worries, please leave the slave and maid behind! ”

Qiao Siwan heard this. sighed and said, "Mother, I'll tell you the truth, Ms. Jiaoxing's character is outstanding, and it's actually a pity to marry that Miao Mu to fill the house." She swept her eyes to Jiao Xing and said, "If my mother really marries her, I'm afraid that the second aunt won't be able to say anything." ”

Yu Meiniang was stunned for a moment, and caught a glimpse of Qiao Siwan looking at her with a smile on her face. Unable to think of the pastries sent by Hongyu, her expression became more and more embarrassed in an instant, she guessed that it was all related to Qiao Siwan now, and her eyes were red with anger. Qi and blood surged, but because of the presence of so many people, he couldn't break out, so he could only forcibly hold back this breath and said: "Wan'er, you are young and ignorant, and you calculate the opposite." Jiao Xing understands that she is giving her master no face, if there is no wicked person on the opposite side to support her, she will never dare to do this! "Say it. She pointed at Jiao Xing with one hand and said coldly: "If you don't care about my placement, you dislike me for having a small temple here." Then come back to the Hou Mansion! I'll go back to my second sister-in-law and ask her to find another job for you! ”
