Chapter 125: Tell them to recognize their mothers
The curtain was opened, and there was still Old Lady Pei sitting next to the bed, which frightened Ah Fu and Huan Xian to fall back.
Both of them rarely see this "Lao Pei".
Previously, when Mrs. Pei was alive, the two lived in a separate courtyard. But because Mrs. Pei has always been smiling silently, the two thought that this was the norm for people to get old.
It turns out that no matter how old a man meets his beloved woman, he is also reluctant to separate....
Afu saluted, and her eyes fell on the hands of the two on the couch.
The vines lay flat, slender, slender, white and tender, coated with Kodan. Maybe the palm of the hand is a little calloused, but just looking at the back of the hand, I will only think that this is an official lady, and no one will think of the servant.
Old lady Pei's palm was facing upward, gently holding Man'er's hand.
This is a pair of fat and short hands, and you can vaguely see age spots, but you can also see that you have been pampered for many years, and the skin and flesh are delicate, unlike Shuyu's hands, and the dense cocoons can have a matte texture.
Man'er turned her head slightly, and looked at the two of Afu with a pair of water-shearing autumn eyes and tears.
Old lady Pei said lightly: "Coming?" ”
Afu said respectfully: "Congratulations to my father-in-law, I am so happy to have the pearl in my palm." ”
It stands to reason that she should also be congratulated and congratulated, but Afu really didn't know what to call her, so she simply omitted it.
Old lady Pei nodded and said bluntly: "You two are daughters-in-law, take a lot of effort, I know that you are all from high backgrounds, you can eat and play, and you will serve your wife more." ”
Hearing that Afu and Huan Xian were stupid, the word "waiting" was used in this kind of place?
Man'er looked at the expressions of the two and said softly: "Master, don't be embarrassed for the two ladies." I'm a servant, where do I still need others to wait," she looked at Mrs. Pei affectionately, her voice was a little hoarse, but it was so sweet that she could squeeze out water: "Man'er can leave a blood for the master, it's a blessing in life...."
Afu really wants to vomit, this sentence has been said more than once, what blood is not bloody, the old lady has already left three sons and one daughter, and wants you to get an axe here....
But Mrs. Pei just ate this, comforted her in every possible way, and turned her head and waited for the two daughters-in-law to express their opinions.
Shuyu, the big backer, was not there, Afu held her stomach again, and she didn't dare to mess around, how dare people not bow their heads under the eaves, and responded respectfully: "Don't worry, master, my daughter-in-law will definitely do her best." ”
Mrs. Pei is so good that she is too lazy to greet them, and she waved her hand to ask them to go down.
Afu squeezed the handkerchief tightly, that man'er was afraid that he didn't bow his head to the old lady?
Huan Xian quietly pulled her sleeve: "Afu, don't worry. In a few days, my aunt will come, and when the time comes, I will ask her to stand up for us. ”
Afu's eyes widened and she said curiously, "Aunt? Will it work? ”
Huan Xian blinked slyly: "Don't worry." My mother is the best at dealing with Man'er's style, otherwise how can she resist my father's group of warblers and swallows? ”
Huan Xian's words were true, and within a few days, Mrs. Huan came with several cars of guys.
Afu heard that when Mrs. Huan entered Huanxian's Qingya residence, it was a daylight, Huan Xian was embroidering in the main house, Ji Heng was mixing with the two concubines in the back, and when she heard that the mother-in-law in the front yard was coming, she was so frightened that she came out to greet the aunt and mother-in-law.
Ji Heng said: "Ah, what kind of wind blew my aunt here? ”
Old Madam Huan glanced at him and said mercilessly: "I'll come to see the godsisters you found for Huan Xian, and ask them to recognize a mother." ”
Afu listened to Sakura Sakura's eloquent relay, laughing so much that her back hurt, this old lady Huan is a straightforward and straightforward straight person, and the hypocrisy and irony of asking for sisterhood from his wife and concubine when a man takes a concubine is vividly and satirically.
Huan Xian has never been to Afu's room, and it is too hot in July, Afu has suffered from the heat, can't eat and sleep well, and has almost been bedridden, and has never seen Mrs. Huan in Qingyaju.
It's just that Sakura Wanwan occasionally bumped into the finch branch next to Huan Xian, and listened to her say something about Mrs. Huan's handwriting.
This old lady Huan was born in a family, married to a high family, and is the sister of Mrs. Pei, but her temperament is completely different, and she often listens to Afu stunned, crying and laughing.
For example, one of Ji Heng's concubines, who is called to cook small dishes, has been practicing dance since she was a child, and she has an injury on her foot.
She took advantage of this name to walk in a demonic tone, twisting three times in one step. The summer gauze skirt is layered on top of each other, swinging around with her steps, which is quite eye-catching.
On that day, Huan Xian and Ji Heng were both in Mrs. Huan's room, and the two concubines came to ask for peace. When Xiao Yan retreated, she turned around early, and held her ass to the crowd, and Ji Heng's gaze couldn't hold back, and she glanced at her waist and hips a few more times.
Old Madam Huan's eyes flickered, and she said mercilessly: "What's it called, Xiaocai, right?" Twist what? This ten-foot-wide hall is afraid that you will hit the wall. ”
Xiao Yan was ashamed and indignant: "Back to the old lady's words, the concubine's legs and feet are not good, therefore..."
Mrs. Huan swept up and down: "Oh, your legs and feet are not good, I don't think your crotch is good, your wide crotch, wrapped in your skirt looks like a soy sauce jar..."
Xiao Yan was ashamed and indignant: "It's the concubine who is stupid, and it obstructs the old lady's eyes...."
Mrs. Huan took a sip of tea: "It's not in the way, you are my uncle's concubine, and my uncle likes it." ”
She didn't have any expression, and she wasn't emotional, but she was ashamed of Ji Heng and Xiao Yu, and she couldn't wait to find a place to escape.
Ah Fu wondered, is this old lady really straightforward, or is she like a mirror in her heart, deliberately using words to provoke Ji Heng?
For example, those two concubines suffered so many losses, and naturally they cried to Ji Heng and complained of pity.
Ji Heng is also soft-eared, so he euphemistically expressed it at the small family banquet in their courtyard, to the effect that he asked his aunt to raise his noble hand to these girls.
Old Madam Huan smiled slightly: "I'm an old lady, I've eaten salt all my life, and my mouth doesn't have to be tricky." My uncle and in-laws are probably living by eating honey, and the Buddha is like a universal sentient being, and everyone has a good face. ”
Ji Heng opened his mouth and stammered, and the old lady Huan took advantage of the victory to pursue: "Oh, it's not very polite to me, the old lady." ”
Mrs. Pei has so much affection for his deceased wife, so naturally he is too lazy to perfunctory his wife and sister, but when Mrs. Huan first came over, she sent someone to deliver a message, asking Mrs. Huan to live like this as her own home.
After all, the courtyard of Pei's Mansion is so big, and he doesn't have to meet his wife and sister, he can live there, even if he drinks jade and eats gold, he doesn't feel distressed.
In this way, it dragged on to the full moon banquet of the daughter of Man'er.
According to Afu's thoughts, she really didn't want to attend.
Thinking that all the civil and military officials in the capital should know the sunset of Old Lady Pei, Afu panicked for her father-in-law.
But Man'er looked forward to it deeply, and as soon as she was out of confinement, she summoned Afu to Dehetang.
She sat on the bed, and a little maid next to her knelt on the pedal and gave her a slender hand to replenish the red Kodan.
The pedal was too hard, the little maid couldn't kneel, and was shaky, although she tried her best not to shake, she still painted it out, and she let go of her hands in a panic, and looked at the vine pitifully.
Man'er ignored Afu, who was standing underground, slapped the little maid with her other hand, and said softly: "Useless things, even a fingernail can't be painted." Go down, and I'll have a few words with the second lady. ”
The little maid ran away with a roll.
Ah Fu knew that she was specifically killing chickens to show monkeys, so she was silent in her heart and was not angry, her eyes were staring at the tip of her belly and she was silent.
Man'er said softly: "Afu, how many months has the child been? Strange tired, right? ”
Afu breathed a stalk in her heart, what are you, call my girlfriend name?
was still honestly ready to answer, but Man'er just asked, and didn't really want to know the answer, so she continued to say: "Alas, I also beat you to come here at this time, and I know how hard it is to have a big belly." What's more, the old man is still beside me and asks for warmth, you..."
She gave Afu a sympathetic look.
Afu rolled her eyes to the sky in her heart, since you know that I am hard, you also tell me to sit down, this empty tongue, what beautiful words to say!
She smiled and replied: "You are really blessed, now that the master is about to become a master, I can accompany you and the girl wholeheartedly." It's not like our second master, it's still when he's working hard. ”
No matter how good Mrs. Pei is to you, how many days can he live?
Man'er's smile froze, and she laughed unnaturally a few times.
