Chapter 845: The Bossiness of the Great Lady
When the mother and daughter of Jingfu entered the house, they only felt that the atmosphere was cold, and none of the people who were cleaning and walking outside the house stopped to greet and salute them.
As soon as the two of them entered, they found that there were already a few people sitting in the room, so that there was a female envoy standing behind each of them, Shi Qingqian sat next to the head, coughing lightly from time to time, and Xue Ying, who was behind, gently patted her on the back.
"Yo, why is my mother here?" As soon as he crossed the threshold, Huo Shi pinched his tone, and looked at the other two girls one by one, his face was very raw, but the eldest lady could be recognized at a glance.
She sat down on the side and said to Yuan Yun, "Yun'er, haven't you seen your grandmother yet?" ”
The Su family is good at pulling relatives together, and even the 'relative' relationship between the eldest lady and Yuan Yun has been calculated, but this relationship is too far away, there is no blood relationship and no direct kinship, the eldest lady snorted softly: "Farewell, the capital has never been interested in climbing relatives so far." ”
Yuan Yun's face froze for a moment, but after sorting it out very quickly, she bowed to the eldest lady Yingying: "Yun'er has seen the eldest lady Shi." ”
"Ahem, cough, cough - cousin, sit down and talk," Shi Qingqian coughed lightly with a handkerchief, pretending to be extremely weak, "It's unfortunate that my cousin and aunt are here today, and I should have sent someone to tell Jingfu that I shouldn't come today." I was sick here yesterday, and I can't entertain my aunt and cousin well. ”
"Look at how you were so careless? There's still a body! Huo Shi looked at Shi Qingqian worriedly.
Shi Qingqian smiled at her: "Aunt Lao is worried, it's just a small problem, just eat a few days of light diet." ”
Huo Shi nodded, looked around, and it didn't look like Shen Shu would also appear here, so he asked, "Speaking of which...... It was the Su'er who sent us to come, but what about the others? ”
Shen Shu sent someone to Jingfu, only saying that he had something to discuss when he invited Mrs. Huo to come today, but he did not elaborate on what it was for. The Su family has been in Beijing for a month and hasn't seen Shen Shu's face, as for yesterday's incident, she naturally knows about it, otherwise she wouldn't have rushed to see the jokes of the couple so quickly.
"Hmph, the seventh brother-in-law is busy with government affairs, where do you have the leisure to take care of your Su family's bad things every day? You can't manage people yourself, and you have to tire us Xiaoqi and my brother-in-law? Peng scolded arrogantly.
She has always been like this, although she is straightforward and fast-talking, she is very shrewd, and she saw early that the Huo mother and daughter were not right, and she didn't want to deal with them more at the moment, so she scolded directly.
Huo Shi looked the woman in front of him up and down, and saw that she was extremely arrogant when she spoke, her hands folded on her laps but she didn't look at herself, she was still restless with a stomach, and she was suddenly a little annoyed in her heart, and said, "Who are you, you have the right to talk here?" ”
"This is the little lady of our Pingyang Mansion, and now the wife of the third young master of the Hou Mansion!" The maid behind her glared and said, "Discuss the qualifications with our wife, you also have the face to say this!?" ”
Huo's face changed at the moment, he didn't expect that this immature-looking girl turned out to be the young lady of the Duke's Mansion, her mind was desperately turning, trying to make up for it, and said with a smile: "Who should I be, it turned out to be the third wife of the Hou Mansion, I heard that your third wife is a straight woman from a high family, it seems that it is true." ”
For her words of wading in troubled waters, Peng refused to accept it easily, and only tilted his head and ignored Huo's words.
Yuan Yun on the side also seemed to feel that the atmosphere was a little awkward, and reached out to sort out the messy hair behind her ear and said, "Cough, mother, let's talk about the distant cousin first." ”
"Well, your girl can handle it more than you do." The eldest lady snorted coldly, her eyes full of disdain for the Huo family.
Huo's was uncomfortable to be seen like this, it was clear that she should be on an equal footing with the eldest lady, she only hated that she didn't have a good baby, she breathed a sigh of relief and glanced lightly: "I think it's true that the princess is unwell, it turns out that I called someone from my mother's family to support the field?" Princess, don't blame your aunt for saying that you, how can a married daughter have everything to do with her mother's family? ”
"Our family is carrying your Su family to run around, how much did your dowry stick into it, and now the pickled girl who called your Su family is so angry that his body is unstable, I'm not qualified to ask you as a mother?" The eldest lady glared and looked at the Huo family sternly, "Even if I came to Xingshi to ask about the crime, what can I say?" ”
Huo's heart was suddenly annoyed, he couldn't bear the eldest lady's words, and his voice became stern: "Our Su family is her mother-in-law's mother's family!" She should be filial as a daughter-in-law, and besides, Su Yixue is also our distant relative! She said that it was your girl who harmed her and fell to this, Mrs. Shi came up to me to ask the teacher for the crime, what is the reason!? ”
"Filial piety? The elders can not only be old, but also have to be respected by the younger generations, your Su family doesn't take care of their own people, don't ask her to frame my girl's aunt like this, your Su family's family style is like this, why do you call my girl a foreign surname to accompany you? The eldest lady snorted coldly and continued:
"Your Su family, take our dowry and silver to eat and drink spicy, only a month in Beijing to give your family Shilang two concubines, if you want to be a rich man, go back to a small place to do it, come to Beijing to really play a 'blood connection' everywhere to fight the autumn wind, rub our child's oil? I'll leave the words here today, your Su family had better be born in peace in the future, and then fight the autumn wind, or call your family to sway around in front of our children, don't blame me for pressing you with a shelf! ”
"You!"
Yuan Yun on the side was still more calm, and hurriedly grabbed the Huo family, who was about to go crazy, and said lightly: "Mrs. Shi's words are really aggrieved, then Su Yixue is just a distant cousin of Yun'er, and she can't fight on weekdays, even if she has a bad tutor, it has nothing to do with our family." ”
The eldest lady was not impatient, picked up the teacup and gently fiddled with it a few times, and said, "Who brought this pickled girl back then?" ”
"This ......"
The Huo family was still immersed in Fang Cai's anger, and after catching the gap, he retorted: "Our Su family is the elder of the Su'er and the princess!" Mrs. Shi can't help herself, she can't ask her uncle to support her, so she is jealous of us! It doesn't make sense! And when we came to Beijing in January, our Su family has not been on the door of Yanwang's Mansion, and as soon as you come up, you will say indiscriminately that we called Su Yixue to harm your daughter, I'm bah! ”
Often at this time, a person's upbringing and concentration are vividly reflected. The eldest lady sat upright, and there was no fluctuation from beginning to end, but it was Huo's family, who was so anxious that she couldn't sit steadily, and she was embarrassed to stand, and she was ugly in just a few words.
