Chapter 40: The Yellow Sparrow Follows
Chu Yunjiao frowned impatiently: "What's wrong with my mother?" Why did you suddenly ask about this, so many days have passed, who remembers. ”
"Hurry up!" Aunt Sun lowered her voice and scolded angrily, "The stakes are very high, if you can't think of it, if you don't think about it, we will all suffer, say, what did she do at that time!" ”
Chu Yunjiao was frightened by Aunt Wang, "Mother, what does that poisonous rouge have to do with us?" The box of rouge I sent was not poisoned, you ......"
Speaking of this, Chu Yunjiao suddenly widened her eyes.
Looking at Aunt Sun's charming face, Chu Yunjiao was excited, immediately accepted the truth, tried to recall, and carefully recounted the process of sending rouge that day.
"Mother, there is Chu Mengying's top tank in this matter now, how many people's hands pass through the middle of the rouge, you can't blame us, you don't have to panic."
Seeing that her daughter was so steady, Aunt Sun nodded with satisfaction: "My Jiao'er has grown up." That's how you want to do it in the future, you're right about it, and it has nothing to do with us. ”
"Yes, anyway, Chu Mengying was unlucky this time, the yellow mud fell in the crotch of her pants, it's not!" Chu Yunjiao covered her mouth and smiled, "Dad cares so much about reputation, but the Wang family and Chu Mengying made him lose face together, this time he even collected the pair of cards, look back at how they still ride on top of our heads to make a fortune!" ”
Aunt Sun frowned thoughtfully, her white fingers tapped down the table, and she analyzed slowly: "This is not necessarily the case. Do you think your dad is willing to give the old lady a pair of cards? ”
"Mother?"
"Your father was afraid that someone would spread the word that he was not filial, so he had to hand over the housekeeping rights, what kind of person is the old lady? It would be strange to take care of our family and not steal grain and rice! Your father is also afraid that the family money he has saved will be given to his youngest son by the old lady, right? So, I don't think the Wang family will be disliked by your father in the future. ”
"It's already such a big disaster, does Dad still want to spoil her?"
Chu Yunjiao's eyes widened, and her face was full of anger.
"Silly girl, where is there any pure pampering?" Aunt Sun fiddled with the jade ring on her finger and chuckled, "If your father is smart, he will only carry the Wang family's mother and son in the future, this time the power of the Wang family's housekeeper is taken away, and he will definitely not give up with the old lady, your father supports the Wang family, just enough to let them fight, so as not to make the old lady dominant, and in the future, he will do whatever he says?" This family will not become Chu Caijun in the future. ”
Chu Yunjiao's eyes straightened when she listened, and she thought about Aunt Sun's words carefully, and found that this was really the truth, and she couldn't help but be in awe of her biological mother.
"Mother, my daughter is stupid, my mother will teach me more in the future."
Chu Yunjiao coquettishly took Aunt Sun's hand, and made Aunt Sun giggle.
"Okay, okay, who else do I teach if I don't teach you? You and your brother are my treasures, your brother has not finished copying the Book of Filial Piety, and I will tell him well after copying it, and he can't be so reckless in the future. What is his little cleverness, if he wants to do it, he has to do it so that people can't see that it is his hand, this is his ability. ”
Chu Yunjiao nodded, "I'll tell Brother Yun when I go back." By the way, mother, this rouge matter, Wenchang Bofu shouldn't check it again, right? I'm afraid I'll find you here. ”
"Not anymore. Your dad is also afraid of making a big deal out of it. Besides, there is no evidence, even if someone suspects, I am also wronged, like you said, rouge passed through the hands of so many people, who knows who poisoned it? ”
Chu Yunjiao smiled proudly: "Mother, you are so smart!" This time, without much effort, the Wang family's slut and Chu Mengying's prodigal hooves were cleaned up! ”
Aunt Sun pinched Chu Yunjiao's face, "Learn more, there is still a lot for you to learn in this inner house!" ”
Aunt Sun and Chu Yun smiled and smiled, but they didn't notice that a figure flashed in the back window.
Chu Junlan walked lightly like an agile cat, flew over the courtyard wall of Chunfang Garden, walked through the small garden casually, and returned to his courtyard.
"Sun Maochun. And let you have fun. ”
***
At the end of the ugly hour the next day, Chu Junlan changed into neat men's clothes and went to Junhua Mountain to pick morning dew at night, and rushed back to the house at the right time, just in time to be the first to go to the room to ask the old lady for peace.
When the old lady first got the housekeeping right, it was the most proud time, and when she got up early in the morning, she was served by the big girl Lilac and Rose to change her clothes and wash, and changed into a new ginger wide-sleeved gown, wearing a dark green eight-panel skirt, her hair was combed in a high bun, and a gilded hairpin was inserted obliquely, and she sat gracefully and luxuriously in the center of the upper room.
She just waited to see who came first and who came later today.
"Old lady, the third lady is here to greet you." Rose lifted the beaded curtain and smiled back inside.
Immediately, I saw Chu Junlan wearing a half-new honey-colored gown, walked in with a smile, and saluted respectfully: "Granddaughter greets grandmother." ”
"Okay, okay, come and sit next to Grandmother." The old lady is quite satisfied, although she can't figure out whether this granddaughter is soft or hard, but when it is time to give her face, she never falls behind, and is always the first to come to cheer.
It can be said that she was able to seize the right to be a housekeeper, and Chu Junlan played a lot of positive roles.
Chu Junlan sat beside the old lady with a smile, chatting about some short things in the family, and the topic led to the ancestral house of his hometown, Chu Junlan said in a timely manner: "If you want me to say, among the three aunts in our family, Aunt Sun is the most sensible." ”
"Oh? How so? The old lady was a little curious.
Chu Junlan said with a smile: "Aunt Sun said a few days ago, 'The old man is the eldest son of the family, he came out early to work hard, relying on the support and help of the family, and it is really not easy for the second master to take care of the old lady at home, when there were no conditions before, now the conditions are good, the old lady came to live in the capital for a few days, and he is sure that he can adapt to the life in the capital, why not invite the old lady to live at home."
"And said, 'With the old lady in charge, the inner house will only be more peaceful, it is better to bring the second master's family here, and it is good for the family to be united' Grandmother thinks?"
The old lady nodded frequently, "This is true, the family is going to get together, and everyone says 'brothers in battle, fathers and sons in battle', it is indeed necessary to do what Sun said." ”
Chu Junlan did not express his position, and chatted with the old lady about other things.
After a while, the whole family came to say goodbye one after another, and Chu Junlan was the first to arrive, so he didn't attract the attention of others.
When the whole family arrived, the old lady said with emotion: "The Sun family is a good one, there are not so many competitive and competitive thoughts, and serving the mother-in-law is also respectful." Rose. ”
"Yes." Rose came up with a brocade box and presented it to Aunt Sun, who was full of confusion.
The old lady smiled and said, "You did a good job, this is a reward for you." ”
Aunt Sun didn't know why, and vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she still respectfully thanked the old lady for the reward.
The old lady got off the donkey down the slope: "Sun is right, the family, just to get together, I am old, I don't know how many years to live, now help the boss housekeeper, but to separate from the second family, I am not happy, now Sun gave me a good idea, talent, you will leave tomorrow, go back to leave someone to watch the house, take the family over, let's live together." ”
When the words fell, Chu Caijun nodded excitedly: "Yes!" Mother! ”
Aunt Wang, Aunt Su and others were stunned, and looked at Aunt Sun with a sluggish face in disbelief.
