21, the ambition of the eldest lady
Green Smoke, Asakusa, Bauhinia and Xiu'er, who had been listening quietly to the side, Zijing said "yo" and said, "Go to the ready-to-wear shop to make clothes?" It's a good day. ”
Cui's mother said: "Hu Yigun loves to drink, and he buys wine and drinks every month, and after a flower follows him, life is tight, how many people say behind their backs that a flower is inserted in cow dung." I heard that Hu Yigun went to Laizhou this time, and the eldest lady gave him a little money to settle down, and Yizhihua didn't have to buy him wine, so he made new clothes. ”
"However, Mrs. Wu also said that in recent days, Yizhihua has complained when she meets people, saying that she would rather not have this family money, and she doesn't know if Hu Yigun can come back this time, saying that he and the second official may have suffered together......"
Speaking of this, the emotional Mother Cui finally remembered this sad fact again, and she became sad.
Meng Qingyun asked again, she couldn't say anything else, she really only heard about this.
It sounds like nothing unreasonable, but if the eldest lady really arranged for Hu Yigun to do something unspeakable, she wouldn't just leak a handle outside.
She said to Green Smoke: "You arrange a proper person, staring at that flower these days, and report anything abnormal." ”
"Yes." Green Smoke knows it.
Meng Qingyun looked at Cui's mother again, wiped her tears again, grabbed a handkerchief for her, and comforted her casually.
This Cui's mother, although she is confused day by day, and she loves to cry at every turn, it seems that the Bai family has always kept her by her side, and it is not all useless, and it is a good hand to inquire about the news. Presumably because she has been in the house for a long time, knows a lot of people, and knows her harmless personality, so she is willing to gossip with her.
"I handed over this home to you, how did you live like this?"
The old lady was half-lying on the chaise longue with a single head upturned, with her forehead pretending to be wrapped in a wipe, and she was counting the Lu family.
Lu Shi sat facing her, although he lowered his head to listen to the training, the expression on his face was disapproving.
"Look at the face of the white second child, people like us were actually laughed at by a businessman, I have lived for more than 60 years, and I have never lost such a big person!"
Lu Shi said aggrievedly: "I can't help it, the family eats grain, and I can't wait to pick the silver from the cracks of my fingers, but the big officials need thousands of silver every month in Kyoto to support." ”
The old lady opened her eyes and turned her head sideways: "Boss, too, the rice in Kyoto is made of gold?" Why is it so expensive every month? He shouldn't be able to learn how to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, right? ”
Lu Shi was taken aback: "How come! ”
Her voice fell, and the old lady herself had already found the bottom of the steps: "Bah, bah, he was brought up by me since he was a child, how can he be like those bastards." But then again, with so much silver a month, which hole did he use to fill in? If you want to say that you have eaten and worn, I don't believe it, he is a silk and satin with delicacies from the mountains and seas every day, and hundreds of silver are also up to the sky. ”
Lu Shi looked left and right, and said mysteriously: "The big officials have been planning for the past two years, and they want the officials to make a reserve. ”
The old lady's eyes lit up: "Lichu? The official family has no son......"
Lu: "It's a succession. ”
The old lady suddenly realized: "Which clan did he bet on?" ”
Lu pointed to the northwest: "Qin Wangfu." ”
The old lady thought with a serious face: "There are many children in the Qin Palace, no wonder, no wonder, how can you do such a thing without spending money......
Lu Shi lowered his head, secretly relieved in his heart, he could be regarded as finding a legitimate reason for this matter.
Unexpectedly, the old lady kept paying attention to her expression, and suddenly sneered: "Don't think I'm confused, the boss has a boss business, then the second white said that you still have a living outside, what is it?" ”
Lu's complexion changed.
The old lady squinted her eyes: "Didn't you put the money in print?" ”
Lu Shi was shocked: "......"
Syllable! The old lady patted the edge of the collapse under her body and shouted angrily: "I know! Say it! How long have you been doing this? ”
Lu Shi hesitated for a long time, thinking about whether to tell the truth or not, the old lady stared at her with blazing eyes, and she finally replied vaguely: "It's just this year......
The old lady said coldly: "I don't care how long you have been doing it, you can clean up this matter as soon as possible." This kind of violation of law and discipline, if people poke it out, the Meng family's century-old reputation will be ruined in your hands! Don't blame me for being merciless and giving you two months! ”
Lu Shi snorted: "For a while, how can it be so fast, besides, there is a share of Mrs. Yongkang Hou in this matter......
The old lady's eyes widened: "No wonder you are in love, and you still want to be a family of children, it turns out that you have long been embarrassed." ”
The Lu family was unhappy in his heart, what kind of embarrassment, the old woman's mouth was really damaged.
She flicked her sleeves and stood up, and said expressionlessly: "In short, I will deal with this matter, the old lady still focuses on taking care of herself, and she doesn't bother with things outside." ”
After saying that, she didn't care whether the old lady agreed or not, she shook her face and left.
Luo's mother stumbled to follow.
The old lady was so angry that she said to Sandalwood: "Look at it, look at it, it's really lawless......"
Sandalwood is also helpless while comforting, your old man has not been caring for many years, and this Meng's house is no longer under your control.
Lu took Luo's mother back to his yard and was so angry that he dropped two tea cups.
The maidservants squatted on the ground tremblingly to clean up, and when they were done cleaning up, they shrank back and withdrew, and they didn't dare to say a word.
"The dead old woman thinks she is the emperor! I rely on this way to get money, and she wants me to take it, but it doesn't cost me my life! She was angry and aggrieved, and both eyes were red.
Mother Luo persuaded: "Oh, my eldest lady, the old lady is just in charge of it on a whim, what can she do to you, why bother to be like her." ”
"Humph! Of course she can't do anything, just let her whine. It's that Yuan Niang, who is so ruthless at a young age, found Bai Lao Er as a backer and forced me to sign an IOU! ”
Lu Shi hated the itchy teeth when he thought of this stubble.
"Look, how long can Bai Lao Er stay in our house? As soon as he left, this little prostitute was not at my mercy, she thought that she could keep the family wealth and do her big dream of spring and autumn! ”
"Yes, yes......" Mother Luo didn't dare to say anything other than following her words.
Lu Shi is seriously thinking about the feasibility of this matter.
"Tomorrow's funeral. After the funeral, Bai Lao Er should leave sooner or later. When he left, on the grounds that Yuan Niang was young and didn't understand the economy, he took over the land shop in her hand, and I took care of it for her. As for the things in her treasury, leave it untouched for the time being, and when she is filial, she will find her a son-in-law, and I will not have to take care of it when the dowry is prepared, and then I will naturally take over the treasury in the name of righteousness. ”
Lu Shi is very shrewd.
Mother Luo looked at the madness in her eyes, but she was a little worried, everything was so beautiful, God could really make her wish come true?
