Chapter 136: Our Girl Doesn't Work for You
Yuan Niang and Ying Ying took Chengyuan to wander in the garden until the evening, and as soon as they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, they saw Zhou He with an anxious face: "Grandma, why did you come back, Mrs. had a quarrel with the second master, and was taken back to Qingyaju by Mrs. Huan!" β
Yuan Niang raised her eyebrows: "I quarreled with the second master?" Why are you arguing again? My little ancestor, this temper, belch.."
Zhou He hurriedly said: "Yuan Niang! The quarrel with the second master was a quarrel, but the old lady Huan came with a murderous aura, saying that our wife killed the third lady and wanted to torture her! β
Yuan Niang's legs softened in an instant, and Sakura barely held on to sit on the ground.
Sakura said hurriedly: "What about Wanwan? β
"Wanwan came back a little earlier than you, and now I'm looking for someone in Qingyaju." Zhou He was also anxious, why did the second master have such a big mess as soon as he came home, one after another: "You guys are really good, there is no one left in such a big courtyard, if I hadn't come over from Zaifutang to take a look, I wouldn't know what happened!" β
Yuan Niang's mouth only cared about chanting: "What did our lady do to the third lady?" What did our lady do to the third lady? As soon as she panicked, her emotions infected Chengyuan, and he also cried loudly, and even made Yuan Niang even more confused.
Sakura hugged her into the hospital: "Yuan Niang, don't mess around, you take care of the son, I'll go over there and have a look." β
Yuan Niang was not at ease: "Are you okay?" β
Sakura didn't answer, just nodded, turned around and ran outside.
Yuan Niang looked at her back, and was shocked to realize that the little chubby pier with two small knots had grown so big.
Old Madam Huan naturally didn't torture Afu, but just tied her to the pillar, and kept asking her, not letting her have a moment of peace, let alone rest.
Three days have passed in a flash, and Sakura and Wanwan have been kneeling at the door of Qingyaju for three days, haggard and inhuman.
Shuyu couldn't do anything, he was extremely anxious at home, and in the end he was just spent in the military department.
On this day, Xiang Lao specially intercepted him, and asked with a smile: "Pei Shangshu...."
Pei Shuyu hurriedly stopped and made a big salute: "I've seen my father-in-law." β
Xiang Lao Lehe: "Hey, hey, Pei Shangshu is exempt from courtesy, our family doesn't do two things." Your mother-in-law and I have long wanted to go to see Afu, but unfortunately this full moon banquet has been canceled again, and Afu will not reply to the letter we sent, and your mother-in-law is so worried that she wants me to ask..."
Shu Yu knew it in his heart, but he didn't know how to speak. After hesitating for a while, he said bitterly: "Why don't I go back to the house with you to pick up my mother-in-law, and you will come to Rongdong Courtyard in the afternoon to have a look?" β
Xiang smiled at the old man: "That relationship is good, that relationship is good!" β
Master Xiang went to court in a carriage, and Shuyu accompanied him into the carriage.
This car is also spacious for the two of them, sitting there looking at each other, it is embarrassing not to say anything, Shuyu did not dare to easily mention the muddy water of Pei's mansion, thought about it, and asked: "Didn't the family banquet at the beginning of the year discuss the matter of Afu's fourth sister?" And finally...."
Xiang Lao said with a smile: "Your mother-in-law is knowledgeable, and the fourth girl is naturally in her name." β
Shu Yu secretly praised in his heart, the book of the Ministry of Rites is amazing, this sentence is subtle and timeless, first praised his wife, "under her name", accurately outlining the situation of the concubine being under the name of the main mother but being raised by the biological mother.
When she arrived at Xiang's Mansion and talked to Mrs. Xiang, she was naturally very excited, and Mu Huannian also wanted to follow because she hadn't seen Afu for a long time, but she didn't dare to say it.
If this was the past, Shuyu would have dragged his family away, but this time he really didn't dare, for fear that he wouldn't be able to control the situation.
Carrying the Xiang couple to the gate of Pei's mansion, Shu Yucai said carefully: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, Afu is now in Qingyaju." β
Mrs. Xiang was interested: "Are you moving?" β
"Well, no. That's the case, my younger brother and sister died in childbirth a while ago, and her old lady Nianghuan couldn't accept it, so she asked Afu for some details..."
Xiang nodded to the master: "Yes, the girl is the heart of her father, if Afu knows something, of course she should tell others." β
Xiang Madame wondered: "What can Afu know?" Isn't she just out of confinement? β
Shuyu said with difficulty: "Uh... It is said that there is musk in a sachet that Afu gave to her younger siblings....."
There was silence in the car when I boarded.
The car just stopped, and Mrs. Xiang jumped out of the car in a panic and trotted all the way to Rongdong Courtyard.
Xiang Lao said to his wife in a trembling voice: "Afu is in Qingyaju!" Elegant House! β
The two of them didn't have time to talk to Shuyu, so they grabbed a maid and led the way to Qingyaju.
The Xiang couple are almost a hundred years old together, of course, they are not naΓ―ve enough to think that there is musk in the sachet, and Mrs. Huan is just "chatting" with Afu.
Shu Yu played a drum in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and he followed behind.
As soon as I arrived at the door of Qingyaju, I saw Sakura and Wanwan kneeling at the door, and it was dark in front of Mrs. Xiang, and she almost fell to the ground.
Xiang Lao Ye has been an elegant person all his life, and he will raise his feet and go to the door regardless of it, and the wooden door made a heavy muffled sound.
Shu Yu was afraid that something would happen, so he stopped Master Xiang with one hand and smashed the door with the other: "Open the door, it's me!" β
There was an old woman inside: "The old lady said that no one is allowed to enter." β
Xiang Lao shouted hoarsely: "Open the door!" β
Shu Yu didn't have time to speak, and asked his wife with red eyes: "How many days?" β
Shu Yu said: "Today is the fourth day. β
The Xiang couple looked at him in disbelief, as if looking at a stranger: "It's been four days, and you're all right?" Aren't you worried? β
Shu Yu was dumbfounded. Afu is suspicious, the best way is to let Mrs. Huan torture her maid, force it, if the maid still insists that she has not done it, it will naturally be washed.
But Afu doesn't want to, what can he do?
Looked away from the old man and said hatefully: "You let her open the door!" β
Shu Yu didn't bother to speak, a flying kick, the old woman behind the door screamed, and was kicked a few meters away with the door panel.
Master Xiang and Mrs. Xiang were obviously a little surprised, and they were stunned for a moment before hurrying in, followed by the cherry blossoms and cherry blossoms who were rolling and climbing.
Soon, the cry to Madame was heard in the house.
Shu Yu was in a trance for a moment.
From his high-spirited and triumphant return, to the green hat pity of the pedestrians on the street, to the surprise of Huan Xian's death and the interrogation of Mrs. Huan, his heart was in a mess.
On the night that Afu was just taken away, he called Zhou He to go, half pleading and half threatening, asking Mrs. Huan to pay attention to proportion, and was replied by the former right minister's house's mother.
"Afu is still the second lady of Pei Fu now, and her old body is naturally counted."
Mrs. Huan is not only Huan Xian's mother, she is also Huan Chong's wife, and Shuyu really respects her.
The door plaque of Qing Yaju is so unfamiliar, Shu Yu was at the door for a moment, but in the end he walked in, and saw the gray Afu smiling at her father and mother.
Mrs. Huan really didn't do anything, she ate a lot and drank a lot, and it was normal to wash and take a bath, but Afu was not allowed to sleep.
However, when people are extremely lacking in sleep, even if they eat and drink, life is worse than death.
Mrs. Xiang touched Afu's cheek lovingly, and cried, "My son suffered....."
Afu wanted to say something, but she couldn't help but retch.
I haven't slept for too long, and my throat is sweet.
Old Madam Huan sat on the side, her face expressionless.
Master Xiang held back his anger and said calmly: "Mrs. Huan, can we take the little girl away?" As parents, we still have an understanding of the character of our little girls. She would never do such a immoral thing! Although the sachet is made by a little girl, it is not cast in iron, so who can't fill it with spices? β
He was about to say something, but was interrupted by Mrs. Huan.
Old Madam Huan looked at Afu, who was trembling with vomiting, and resigned herself to her fate: "Take your girl back." This time, Xu has wronged you. β
She no longer had the strength to be polite or apologize, and the sadness and powerlessness of losing her own daughter once again engulfed the high-ranking Mrs. Huan.
Master Xiang wanted to say something, but Mrs. Xiang grabbed him, helped Afu who was retching again and again, and said, "Okay, okay, let's send Afu back to the courtyard to rest first." β
Afu could barely stand up, and immediately bowed down to the old man to carry her up.
Shu Yu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Father-in-law, I'll come...", he stretched out his hand and took one of Afu's arms.
Afu was groggy, and as soon as he was allowed to sleep, although he barely kept his eyes open, he no longer recognized anyone, and felt someone holding him, and subconsciously turned away from him.
Mrs. Xiang took the girl on her shoulders, pulled Shuyu's hand away, and said coldly: "It's okay, our girl, I don't want your help." β
Xiang Lao glanced at his wife in surprise, only to see her calm face, ignoring Shuyu.
Sakura and Wanwan helped Afu to Master Xiang's back, Mrs. Xiang followed aside, and the family hurried to Rongdong Courtyard.
Shuyu followed behind, like a lost old horse, extremely helpless.
