Chapter 557: Embarrassed
The old woman was still sitting upright, and when she listened to Qin Yao and the eldest princess, the old woman didn't react much for a while, Qin Yao thought that she would be angry or say something.
The old woman didn't squeak, but kept looking at the eldest princess.
The eldest princess was also puzzled, and felt that dragging Qin Yao out and following her to suffer this matter was a little reluctant, "Madame Patriarch, in fact, the girls in our family are all good, and this marriage match, although it is of age, cannot be rushed." ”
In this way, it is obvious that the old woman cannot be too urged.
I saw that after the old woman listened to the words of the eldest princess, she pondered for a while, and then said: "It's all talked about to this point, where can I, the old woman, play tricks with you?" Ah, in fact, it's not like I can't make it clear to you, anyway, I'm so old, what I want is for the juniors in the family to live well, well, the second princess, you don't have to shirk, your eldest sister-in-law is useless, otherwise I wouldn't have to give up my old face to see the second princess. ”
As she said this, the old woman's finger pointed in the direction of the eldest princess.
Qin Yao was directly angry by this sentence, "Madame Patriarch, is it inappropriate for you to say this?" ”
"What I said is very appropriate, Jiahui, this child, since she was a child, we have taught her to know books and etiquette and teach her to be a housekeeper, but she has learned everything that a high-ranking woman should learn, but she is such a good child, she can't help with some things, I look at the second princess is appropriate, some things can really help the old woman and me, otherwise, why should I be willing to go far?"
When Qin Yao heard these words, she panicked in her heart, what does this mean? The eldest princess is still standing here, just saying to her face that the eldest princess is an unsuccessful person, is this old woman old and confused? How could it be so much to say about the eldest princess.
Qin Yao smiled and said, "Old lady, you are out of sight when you say this, you are modest, where is there a better person than my eldest sister-in-law?" The one I admire and appreciate the most in my heart now is my eldest sister-in-law. ”
The old woman still shook her head and said, "We just taught Jiahui too well, a lot of things, Jiahui won't do it, it's better than you, the second princess." said that the sentence of self-indulgence is that the second princess is too modest. ”
The more Qin Yao thought about it, the more she felt that if the old woman was either old and confused, or deliberately found fault, what she said in the past half a day made no sense at all, and it didn't make sense at all.
"What? The second princess doesn't believe it? The old woman looked at the row of maids and grandmothers standing not far behind the eldest princess and asked, "Tell me, am I right, who is more capable than the eldest princess and the second princess?" ”
Qin Yao looked back, as the old woman's voice fell, Gu Ya behind the eldest princess was fine, probably not the maid who came out of the eldest princess's mother's house after all, and the other grandmothers and maids all lowered their heads and hated to get under the floor tiles.
No one spoke, no one squeaked, and no one could answer this question. In the main hall, it was quiet all of a sudden, Qin Yao felt that it was not worth it for the eldest princess, what kind of patriarch's wife was this, it was clearly an old lady who was messing around.
Rao is like this, the old woman chased after and said: "Jiahui's good is not as good as the second princess's good ability, although you are not the daughter of a dignitary, but this time, as long as the second princess is willing to help, my wife and my affairs can be successful." I'll tell you the truth, I can have the ability to marry the royal family to be the second princess, how can it be an ordinary person, how can I have some wrists, today, I will pull down my face to beg the second princess, what wrists are released, I just want the second princess to help pull the line, we are in the Meng family, alas, seriously, there are few excellent children in this generation, to Jiahui, we were counting on Jiahui to support this family, but she married the eldest prince, we can't say that the eldest prince is not good, we can only say that the eldest prince is not good enough. ”
Qin Yao still wanted to fight for the eldest princess, and said deliberately: "Madame patriarch, what you said is a little biased, I am married to the second prince, Ye Qinghong, he is not as good as the eldest prince, who doesn't know in the imperial city, the second prince is an idle person who doesn't ask about business, just wants to be comfortable, and he wanders in the market all day long, has no ambition at all, and has a good skin." ”
"A good skin is better than an elm pimple!" The old woman suddenly raised her voice and said, "Jiahui, why is it embarrassing, isn't it because she is powerless to protect the glory and wealth of the Meng family in the future?" But if this girl has a little brain, a little bit of mind to think about this family, how can she use me, an old woman, to think of a way here? The second princess, we don't say secret words, you have the ability, this concubine of the five-grade official family can marry the second prince, what kind of ability is this? Therefore, I don't ask for anything else, I just ask you to raise your noble hand and help the daughters of my Meng family that day. ”
Seeing that this was a bloody drama, and the old woman was going to pull herself in, Qin Yao was reluctant in her heart, so she shook her head and refused without thinking about it.
"Patriarch, patriarch's wife, not to mention whether I have this ability, even if I have, what you have to do in this matter is to clearly calculate, I don't have the heart, and, an outsider, to help the Meng family? Why do you think I would want to? You're embarrassing me! ”
"Don't you think your eldest sister-in-law is good? You should help your sister-in-law. The old woman said it easily, but in and out of words, it was as if Jiahui had done something wrong.
When Qin Yao heard these words, she only felt that the old woman was unreasonable, "I don't care about this person, but you can't climb the high pressure like this, I said that my eldest sister-in-law went back to her mother's house, why did she bring you here, it must be you who want to come, right?" My eldest sister-in-law will definitely not mention these words to me, if someone else says it, I will scold people directly, I think of your age, you are an elder, Mrs. might as well leave now, just we haven't met today. ”
The eldest princess already had an embarrassed look on her face, but because it was the patriarch's wife of the Meng family after all, the eldest princess didn't dare to say anything.
Qin Yao looked at the appearance of the eldest princess in her heart, and she was very distressed.
"Old lady, you said that I am good at everything, anyway, how many people in the imperial city think that I Qin Yao is a person with evil intentions, and I am the only one who treats me well, but what you say, everything makes my eldest sister-in-law sad, just for this, I really don't know what to do, what a good person my eldest sister-in-law is, to be honest, I think that there are few women like the eldest princess in the world, if you want to say that your daughter should not be able to pass the eldest sister-in-law, in this case, Otherwise, let the girls of the Meng family have a good life, I wonder what the people of the Meng family are asking for. ”
