126. The first experience of quarreling
Su Xi listened to it for a while, and finally understood what happened, this young lady Zhang ran back crying yesterday, feeling depressed and aggrieved, so she asked her husband for some comfort.
Zhang Gongzi naturally said all the good things, and praised his little wife to the sky and the earth, of course Mrs. Zhang was very happy when she heard it, and the little thing in the banquet had long been forgotten, and the two made an appointment to enjoy the moon and play the piano together in the evening.
But in the evening, Zhang Gongzi was waiting to go to the appointment, and the pregnant little concubine Chun Tao was a little angry, and when her maid went to ask for a doctor, she called Zhang Gongzi who was passing by to meet her, and Zhang Gongzi naturally had no reason not to visit when he learned about it.
This time I couldn't escape the gentle township of the little concubine, so I had to ask someone to bring a message to Mrs. Zhang Shao saying that there was something to deal with temporarily, and she stayed directly in the study at night.
Mrs. Zhang Shao is young and vigorous, where can she bear it, and take a group of maids and wives to kill the courtyard of the little concubine, and the noise after that is logical.
Su Xi knew that people didn't mean to argue with her, so she didn't want to pay attention to it, and was about to quietly retreat to the side hall and find an excuse to leave, anyway, no one in this Hou Mansion would have time to pay attention to her for a while, so she didn't want to turn her head and bump into Mrs. Jingyi Hou head-on.
"Which one are you? How do you get to the backyard? "This Mrs. Hou is in a very bad mood, and her face is not good, and when she sees the ugly death at home, she asks a stranger to see it, and her face is even worse.
Su Xi hurriedly reported to his home and explained: "Yesterday at the banquet of Prince Lu's princess, because the young lady of your mansion made some unpleasant trouble when she used the mirror I dedicated to the princess, I am here to make amends today. ”
Although she said that she came to make amends, she was still neither humble nor arrogant on her face, and she also pointed out that the mirror was dedicated to the princess, and Mrs. Zhang Shao wanted to take it herself, and she understood that people would naturally pass by with a haha, but this Mrs. Hou was obviously not.
"It turns out that you are the one who offered some diorama yesterday to make trouble," Mrs. Hou raised her head slightly and looked at Su Xi with her nostrils, her posture was extremely arrogant, she didn't go to Prince Lu's mansion yesterday because of some cold, but then she heard about Su Xi.
For such a daughter-in-law of the Lu family who was driven out of the capital, she naturally did not need to be polite as a Mrs. Hou, and she had no scruples when she spoke, "The head of the Lu family is a famous family, no matter how much you are a side branch, you can't be so embarrassed by the face of the Ningguo Mansion." ”
Su Xi's face darkened, she was not a person who would be soft, and immediately retorted: "Troublemaker? I was looking for strange things to send congratulatory gifts to the princess, what to do with the young lady of your mansion, she didn't say anything about using the mirror without the permission of the princess, and she was crying and disturbing the banquet, who was making trouble, but it was obvious. ”
"What a sharp-toothed girl!" Mrs. Hou looked a little angry, and her face turned red.
"Don't dare to be," Su Xi continued, "The princess is kind, she doesn't pursue the young lady's rudeness, and she also asked me to come to your mansion to visit, in order to show sincerity, I came early in the morning, and no one came to wait in the side hall."
"I heard that the young lady in the house had an accident, I thought it was related to yesterday's incident, so I came to take a look, I was also worried about the young lady, and there is no one in charge of the hall to ask, I'm sorry to come in without permission."
"You, where are you here to apologize, it's obviously a joke." Mrs. Hou was so angry that the beads on her head kept shaking, she pointed to Su Xi and said to the mother-in-law behind her: "Tie her up for me, send her to Dali Temple, and accuse her of trespassing and contempt for the Hou Mansion." ”
The two mothers-in-law got the order, rolled up their sleeves and walked towards Su Xi, and Jinxiu strode forward in front of Su Xi and shouted: "Who dares!" The two mothers-in-law looked at Jinxiu's small body, didn't pay attention to it, and pushed her away.
Su Xi didn't panic when she saw them approaching, there was still a Lu Nian behind her, Lu Nian grabbed one of the mothers-in-law and stretched out her hand to Su Xi and broke it up, only to hear a "click" sound, and the mother-in-law hugged her wrist and wailed.
"Someone, someone's killing." Mrs. Hou's face turned pale with fright, and she screamed loudly, and all the maids behind her also shouted.
"What are you calling," Su Xi pulled Mrs. Hou's collar and stopped, afraid that they would provoke more people, and it would be a question of whether Lu Nian could get away with it at that time, "It's just a dislocation, just find a doctor to pick it up."
"Madam, I'm not here to cause trouble, but my Lu family is not afraid of things, don't worry, I'm not interested in talking about other people's things."
"Mother, what's wrong?"
Before Su Xi finished speaking, Zhang Lan heard the voice and came out to ask, Su Xi glanced at him, let go of Mrs. Hou, and straightened the creases of her clothes for her before continuing:
"It seems that the Hou Mansion doesn't need my apology, I'll leave first, and if I have the opportunity to talk to my wife in the future."
After that, she left with Jinxiu and Lu Nian, and Mrs. Hou behind her was so angry that she gritted her silver teeth and creaked.
Su Xi, who got into the carriage, patted her chest and took a long breath, she usually occasionally saw her mother quarreling with others, but it was the first time she had gone into battle by herself, and she couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
Jinxiu poured a glass of water for her, frowned and asked, "Young lady, why is this Mrs. Jingyihou so rude, it is very different from those ladies I saw yesterday." ”
Su Xi said casually: "The Jingyi Hou Mansion is originally a family in the market, and it became a royal nobleman by relying on a queen mother, but I don't know how to cultivate myself, how can I compare with those ladies of the family who have received aristocratic education since childhood." ”
"Sure enough...... Or is it more important to be born? "Jinxiu is a little sad, she tried her best to survive, trying to find a way to change her fate, but she is still not as good as a good background?
"Background is indeed very important," Su Xi told her bluntly, but she said: "Your own efforts are also very important, that young lady Zhang, what do you think?" ”
Jinxiu replied with some disgust: "No, I used to know a young lady from a foreign family, and her husband was greedy and lustful, and she was often sad behind her back, but she never lost her temper like this in front of people, and it was not good to come to Mrs. Zhang's mother's house." ”
Su Xi shook his head with a smile and said, "Mrs. Zhang's maiden name is Yao, her grandfather taught in Taixue, and he has been the enlightenment teacher of many princes, and he is a real scholarly family. ”
"How can this be...... Jinxiu couldn't believe that the person who could sit on the ground with her hair was a young lady from a family, and that was obviously a means that only people like her would play a trick of splashing and rolling.
"The queen mother is Zhang Lan's aunt, so she will naturally choose a good family affair for him, but unfortunately this young lady Zhang is beautiful, but her brain is not very good, and she is played around by a concubine. So in addition to his background, he must also be able to live by himself. ”
Like her mother-in-law, not only has a good background but also means, the group of concubines in her father-in-law's backyard didn't even dare to raise their heads when they saw her, except for bad luck, nothing could bother her.
Su Xi thought of Mrs. Lu, who was a truly wise woman.
