The Yongchang Bofu is not big, but the courtyard of the big house is the closest to the main courtyard.

When Pei Jiao was young, Ji was reluctant to see her, so he exempted her from asking for peace. Therefore, when he was a child, Pei Jiao never stepped into the territory of a big house.

After she became friendly with Gu Yaolian, the number of times she came to Muxiangyuan finally became more frequent.

The vestibule of the Muxiang Courtyard is planted with pomegranate trees, and there is a faint fragrance of flowers at night.

Pei Jiao likes to come to Muxiangyuan very much, because compared to the Tangtang Zhai where she and Aunt Ren live, Muxiangyuan is not only more spacious, but also makes people feel bright.

It's just that Pei Jiao tonight has lost her usual joy, she is holding the handkerchief in her hand, and her mind is messy.

"Girl, wait here for a moment." The little maid guarding under the porch saw Pei Jiao coming, and her expression did not change, "I'll go and spread the word first." ”

The Ji family does not attach importance to Pei Jiao, a concubine, and it can be said that she has despised her over the years. There has always been no shortage of people in the Muxiang Courtyard, and their attitude towards Pei Jiao is both indifferent and rude.

They would not salute Pei Jiao, and sometimes they would reprimand Pei Jiao for not understanding the rules.

Pei Ji hated these bullying subordinates, but there was nothing he could do about them.

When she stood in front of Ji's family, the little maids standing under the porch actually pretended to be busy from time to time to see her jokes.

"What you say is true?" Ji Shi leaned on the big pillow embroidered with pomegranate flowers, and his voice was cold, "Is it really because Gu Yaolian wants to send Kong Zhao back to his house, so he will forget that you are still in the Liu family?" ”

"How dare I lie to my wife." Ji doesn't like Pei Jia to call his mother, so Pei Ji has always called Ji his eldest wife all these years, "You know that the Kong family has always been arrogant and unreasonable. If the second cousin didn't go to Kong's house to apologize in person, I am afraid that this matter would be a big problem. ”

And even if Gu Yaolian went to the Kong family in person, this matter would be a big trouble.

The Kong family asked people to spread the word, and they were willing to make this matter a big thing small, but they wanted the Liu family to apologize.

I don't know what the Kong family wanted, but the angry Liu Chengwen broke a porcelain at that time and scolded the Kong family for being shameless.

Pei Jiao looked at it from a distance, and the porcelain vase was placed on the market, not to mention dozens of taels of silver.

"Since the Kong family has passed the word, how could Gu Yaolian not remember that you are still in the Liu family?" Ji sneered, "You are such a big living person is gone, will she not know?" ”

"Sister Mustard, you know me, I have been in charge of the housekeeping for many years, and I don't like people to deceive me the most. If anyone dares to tell a lie in front of me, I will throw her into the lowest courtyard. ”

Ji is strong, and his words are always so direct.

Pei Jiao's life in the big house was not easy.

She bit her lower lip tightly, "Madam, what I said is true, the second cousin is really busy and confused to forget me." ”

If she told the Ji family that Gu Yaolian's relationship with her was not as good as before, then she would be a waste chess in Ji's eyes.

The reason why the Ji family was willing to see her, and they didn't assign her to a steward and talent at will, was also because she still had use value.

Ji's hated the people in Sanfang to the core, and wanted to find out the news of Sanfang through her.

However, she didn't dare to tell the truth.

When she accompanied Gu Yaolian to Liu's house before, Liu Xiang had looked for her privately.

Liu Xiang said on the surface that as an aunt, he wanted to care about Gu Yaolian, but in fact, he wanted Pei Jiao to tell her about Gu Yaolian's preferences and behavior.

Pei Jiao originally wanted to please the Liu family, so Liu Xiang didn't give her any benefits at all, she told Liu Xiang everything she knew, and was more willing to cooperate with Liu Xiang to keep Gu Yaolian.

Fortunately, Liu Xiang is not the one who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge, she gave Pei Jiao a lot of things.

For example, the jasper bracelet on her wrist.

"-" The Ji family has been in the house for many years, how can he not know whether what Pei Ji said is true or false?

She grabbed the tea cup on one side and smashed it towards Pei Jiao.

Pei Jiao didn't dare to hide.

The tea cup smashed on her chest, and she almost jumped to her feet with the hot tea.

"Do you really think I'm confused? I don't know what to do, I think you grew up next to Aunt Ren, and I can't handle you anymore? Ji snorted coldly, "Even if I throw you out now, no one will say anything about me." ”

Pei Ji knelt on the ground in fright, "Madam, I really don't dare." ”

"My wife has treated me very well over the years, and if it weren't for my wife's care, I'm afraid I would have been gone. To me, my wife is not only a relative, but also a benefactor. ”

"I am willing to do everything for my wife to repay you for your kindness. Madam, believe me, I just accepted a little bit of silver from the Liu family and told them about my second cousin, and there was nothing else. ”

As he spoke, Pei Jiao cried.

Mama He, who was waiting under the porch, finally walked in, she looked at Pei Jiao on the ground, and persuaded, "Madam, don't be angry. ”

"You are the most benevolent, you are so uneasy, it is nothing more than worrying that the third girl will be bullied outside."

Mama He pulled Pei Jiao up, "Third girl, you came back so late, but the eldest lady was in a hurry." Now that it's late at night, go back and rest! ”

Mama He smiled at Ji's and told the little maid to send Pei Ji back.

As soon as Pei Jiao left, Mama He persuaded Ji's, "Madam, you forgot what the old slave told you before, now only the third girl can monitor everything in the third room for the big house, if you really throw her out, then do we still expect to let the embroidery branch spread the matter of the third room?" ”

"Don't you know, that stupid girl Xiangwei follows Xiuzhi every day, and she almost goes to the toilet with Xiuzhi."

Ji frowned, "Mama, you know, I don't want to see her at all." Every time I see her, I think of her foxy mother, who dared to hide from me and poured out the child-avoiding medicine. ”

What if you force yourself pregnant? If a baby boy is born, Ji will let both their mother and child die.

If it's a baby girl, it's okay to keep it.

"Madam, don't forget, the third wife of the Jiang family has been going to Yongqing Pavilion for tea these days. Although the affairs of Miss Biao and the Liu family were concealed, we had people reveal the news to Mrs. Jiang San. ”

"But you see, Mrs. Jiang San not only corresponds to Wang Ruolan, but also more frequently than before."

"The old slave looked at the family affairs of Miss Biao and the Jiang family, and I am afraid that he will not give up."

When Ji Shi heard this, he gritted his teeth even more, "Shen Xi, this idiot is simply blind, she has set this family business for her brother, and she is not afraid that her brother will hate her in the future." ”

Mama He: "......"

Jiang Wensheng was quite happy and very satisfied with Gu Yaolian.

But where does Mama He dare to say this?

She could only smile, "Yes, Mrs. Jiang San has no eyes, so we have to help her see the people in the third room clearly." ”

"Madam, you can't help but hurt Miss. Our eldest lady and Jiang Ergongzi are the real talented women and a match made in heaven. ”

Ji sighed, "Sister Lan is my child, how can I not hurt her?" Mama, what do you say to do? ”

"Just do what we said before." Seeing that the Ji family was finally willing to listen to her words, Mama He said, "Let's let the third girl go to the third room to walk around, the old slave believes that there will be flaws in the third room." ”

"Madam, I'll go see the third girl first, Ming'er, you remember to give some unwanted clothes and jewelry to the third girl, it will be regarded as a blessing for the eldest lady."

Ji nodded and didn't say anything more.

This is a trick that works in the big house, one sings red face and the other sings white face.

So over the years, Pei Jiao has instead obeyed Mama He's words.

After comforting Ji's family, Mama He walked out of the house as if relieved, she went back to where she lived, and wrote a letter.

"Jiu'er." Mama He said to the little girl in the courtyard, "As before, you personally sent this letter back to Ji's house." ”
