Return to the north courtyard of the upper garden.

"What kind of play are you going to listen to today?" The maid Ruohe asked the companion who came early next to her.

"The play was ordered by the lady, one is "Taijun's Resignation", and the other is "Lai Marriage".

"Taijun's Resignation" is for the old lady, but this "Lai Marriage" ...... "The old lady in the house has admired the style of the previous generation of Angelica Pavilion women all her life, and she was born in a family of military generals, and she also acted with a bit of pride in not letting women shave her eyebrows, this Yangmen's "Taijun Resignation" is also a must-order track for his play, and this "Lai Marriage" is singing about the old lady Cui who reversed her word and pushed Lai Zhang Sheng and Yingying's family affairs.

"Lai Marriage" is naturally not for our old lady," the girl Hanlian, who had been standing on the side without saying a word, said lukewarmly.

"I know," Ruohe clapped his hands and said, "Lai Marriage, Lai Marriage, isn't that what I said......

"Don't tell if you see through it." Han Lian said lightly, she is the maid next to the eldest young master, she is delicate, and this expressionless face is also a cold beauty.

Let's say that this grandmother Yue was also a beautiful character when she was young, and she was the niece of the old lady. Who knew that the fate was not good, and he lost his husband in the early years, and committed adultery, and was driven back to his parents' house by his husband's family, and changed his mother's surname, known as Grandma Yue.

The old lady has always loved this niece, so she was accompanied by her, and in recent years, the old lady has quite a plan to give her to her own son, that is, the master of this house, to be a flat wife. But the lord and wife in the house did not let go, so the matter could only be dragged out without embarrassment.

To say that this cousin and grandmother are good-looking, but the character is average, and the lady is in charge of the house in this house, although the maid and grandmother at the bottom respectfully shout to her cousin and grandmother, but they all spit on her in private.

After the audience finished reporting the track, this grandmother Yue's face was red and white, and the sweat towel in her hand was about to be wrenched.

The song "Taijun's Resignation" is wonderful, everyone accompanied the old lady to listen to it with relish, and when the old lady was tired, she rewarded some silver money to eat and play the troupe, so she was accompanied by Gui Chuyu and a few maids to go back to rest.

As soon as the old lady left, Grandma Yue couldn't sit still, and told Wu about her guilt, and was helped back by the maid, and when she went back, she dropped a teapot and several teacups.

"Grandma bear with it, if this matter is spread to the old lady, she should be disappointed." It was Mrs. Qian, the old man next to Grandma Yue, who came back from Diancui before Grandma Yue returned to the hospital.

"If my aunt really loves me, she shouldn't let that Wu order that "Lai Marriage" today, she is obviously using this play to humiliate me!" Grandma Yue wiped away her tears in annoyance.

Mrs. Qian wanted to comfort her, but she was flustered by the matter of Diancui, so she fell silent.

"By the way, what did the maid say?" Grandma Yue looked at Mrs. Qian and asked.

Mrs. Qian was instructing the little maid below to clean up the fragments of the tea cup, and when she heard the words, she stepped forward and said: "That maid has been hungry for three days, maybe she is hungry and stupid, and she didn't say anything," Mrs. Qian said in her mouth, but there was a sharp pain in her calf, and she hated it: "It's all because the old woman remembers the wrong time, if I catch it next time, I will definitely want her to eat good fruit." ”

"A stupid country maid, it's worth your life," Grandma Yue saw that Mrs. Qian looked like she had a grudge against the maid, and said tightly: "She didn't see your face, did she?" ”

"No, no," Mrs. Qian swallowed and said, "The old slave went while it was dark, and there was no lamp in the house, so he shouldn't be able to see it." "How the hell did the maid recognize herself? Mrs. Qian's heart beat a drum.

"That's good, if she recognizes it, ......" Grandma Yue made a gesture, meaning that she had killed the maid, and a trace of vicious light flashed in Mrs. Qian's eyes.

"Grandma rest assured, that maid won't live long, as long as she starves her for two more days, she will definitely die." A normal person who can go hungry for three days, the maid is hard to tell, but if she is locked in the cold firewood room and no one cares, she will soon die.

Grandma Yue heard her words, and suddenly sneered: "You don't mention this, I forgot, listening to the play tonight, the eldest lady actually begged her in front of the old lady to persuade the Wu family to let go of the little maid, and the Wu family is also a happy person who dares to love and hate, how can he give birth to such a hypocritical daughter." What's even more infuriating is that the old lady is quite affected by her hypocrisy. ”

Let's say that the play was over, Wu returned to the main room of the East Courtyard, but saw Gui Chuyu packing up a few clothes.

Seeing Wu Shi coming in, Gui Chuyu saluted slightly and said, "After staying for two or three days, my mother was disturbed." ”

"What are you and my mother and daughter doing when they say these things that are not going to happen," Wu stepped forward to take Gui Chuyu's hand, but she unintentionally avoided it, turned her head and continued to pack up those few clothes.

Wu sighed in his heart, this daughter has never been close to him since she was found back four years ago, which makes Wu feel very uncomfortable, and he doesn't dare to blame her, just because he regrets the suffering she suffered in the years when she was stolen.

"Are you really going to let that maid go?" Wu asked, "But she dared to push you into the water......

"Mother, I have made this matter clear, no matter what she does to her daughter, but after all, it is the love that grew up together since childhood, and I can't bear it. Besides, she had been hungry for three days, so she must not dare to do it again, so her mother spared her this time. Gui Chuyu said sadly.

"This ...... That's it! Then let it out," because when Gui Chuyu mentioned the old again, the Wu family felt guilty, so he didn't insist anymore, turned his head to Grandma Lu and said, "Bring that maid, I have something to say." ”

Diancui was taken to the front of the east courtyard and bowed down to Wu Yingying, who was sitting on it, and Wu saw that there was a little blood on her body, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.

"You pushed the eldest lady into the lake before, do you recognize it?" Wu asked with a cold face.

Diancui smiled bitterly and said, "Back to Mrs. Hui's words, what Diancui didn't do, I don't dare to admit it." ”

"The eldest lady has forgiven your sins, why don't you admit it, admit your mistakes quickly, don't make Madame angry!" Grandma Lu hurriedly opened her mouth and scolded.

Diancui was dumbfounded, knowing that as long as she admitted it and admitted her mistake now, at this time, because of Gui Chuyu's intercession, it would also pass, and her temperament was not so rigid and inflexible, but for some reason, in front of Wu's family, she was stubborn in her heart.

She's right, she doesn't admit it.

Seeing that this maid actually held her neck and refused to admit her mistake, Wu Shi was laughed at angrily, a little maid was so stubborn, and her eyes were clearly full of grievances and dissatisfaction, and Wu Shi was somehow a little soft-hearted.

"Get out, fortunately, Yu'er is fine, and she has interceded for you many times, this matter is over, whether you are wrong in this matter or not, remember to remember your young lady's kindness in the future." If you do anything harmful to Yu'er again, I will have to take your life! Wu sternly warned.

Diancui knelt down and bowed, then staggered out with his waist in his hands.

When she went out, Wu suddenly looked up at Grandma Lu and said, "Grandma has never been nosy, but I didn't expect to treat this little maid differently today." ”

Grandma Lu was not annoyed when she was said, but admitted frankly: "Yes, the old slave has a few relationships with this little girl, and for some reason I feel that she is very close to her eyes, and I think that if she really didn't do anything that hurt the eldest lady, she would be a seedling that could be cultivated." ”

"Isn't it good...... looks?" said Wu.

"It's a bit like the demeanor of the lady when she was a child," didn't want Grandma Lu to take over the conversation, Wu couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately said indifferently: "But Yu'er has already said that it was this maid who accidentally pushed her down......

"I believe in Yu'er in this matter." Wu said slowly.

"Yes, it's the old slave who has a lot of trouble." Grandma Lu bowed down and said.

Wu Shi hurriedly stepped forward and took her hand, and said There are some things that you and I don't need to say much, you are my nurse, and you are also the most trusted person in the world, Grandma Lu nodded tearfully.

Early in the morning of the second day, the news that the eldest lady who had fallen into the water was released was spread to the various courtyards of the home, and the eldest lady was passed into the streets and alleys of the capital regardless of the previous suspicion of repaying grievances with virtue.

In the main courtyard, the old lady smiled and said to Gui Chuyu, who came to ask for peace: "I have heard everything in your yard, that maid said that she has some relationship with you, you can bring her to the capital, not to mention that you can repay your grievances with virtue, but it is the demeanor of our family." ”

At the end, he looked at Gui Chuyu's face, sighed and said, "Although the talent is not as good as the two sisters of your uncle's family, it is the woman's virtue that depends on it after all." ”

"I think our Yu'er is a good one, since ancient times, women have paid attention to virtue, and those talents and appearances are the sailors in the mirror after all, and they don't count." Grandma Yue next to her also smiled.

Wu Shi on the side listened, and suddenly his face turned blue, Yu'er suffered when she was young, and her face was more yellow, in addition to supplementing with medicinal food over the years, she also found good rouge gouache, Yu'er insisted on drinking the powder every day but it was still difficult to hide the yellowness; Besides, although I invited four gentlemen of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting to teach, although Yu'er worked hard, it was always difficult to open up...... This is also the sore spot of her mother, this Yue family is so ignorant, and it is said that her Yu'er is talented and beautiful.

"If you want to say what is the most important thing about a woman, I say, virtue and talent are not as good as this life, this life is the most important, if it is such a widow and lonely life, no matter how virtuous and talented, what is the use, Yu'er, what do you say." The Wu family has always been a spicy and powerful, her mother's family is the rich Wu family in the world, she was in charge of the family when she was a girl, and she is not inferior to anyone in terms of her mind and mouth. The old lady has never rashly carried her niece, Grandma Yue, into the door, and she is also afraid.

Who knows that this grandmother Yue is not a smart person, she has never understood the old lady's hard work, and she often has no brains to provoke her. But today's wife's words are really cruel, who in this house doesn't know that Grandma Yue has died of her husband, she is stabbing Yue's heart, and the old lady can't bear to wait for a seizure.

The Wu family came out for his children like this, but unfortunately Gui Chuyu didn't expect to come over for a while, and he was used to pleasing the old lady, so he said with a little disdain: "Mother, don't be angry, grandmother and cousin are also good for me." ”

"Okay, you are not as good as a child," the old lady patted Chu Yu's hand and said, "I'm also tired, you go back, you can come to eat with my wife later, and you." ”

"Yes," Chu Yu and Grandma Yue agreed with a smile.

Seeing his daughter talking and laughing with others, Wu Shi hid the loss in his eyes, and he was really tired of taking care of her these days, so he took advantage of the excuse that Grandma Lu accompanied her back to the east courtyard first.
