Wei Zongyong came to Aunt Liu's room with a tired face, and sighed heavily as soon as he entered the door, these days he only felt that he was a few years older, and he tried his best to hold the shelf in front of the Bao family, and he didn't want to show his powerlessness.

Bao and he are a young couple, Bao is scheming, and everything will be thoughtful for him.

But Wei Zongyong has always had a pimple in his heart, and his biological mother Zhang is also a strong woman. Since he was sensible, almost everything was done according to Zhang's wishes, otherwise she would have a hundred ways to force Wei Zongyong to comply.

For example, he liked the first maid in the house named Rou Nu so much, but Zhang disagreed, because Wei Zongzhao also liked her.

Zhang said that you can't fight with Young Master Zongzhao, Madame (Mrs. Zhu) values him, you have to know how to avoid it.

As a result, the old man knew that the two brothers liked a servant girl at the same time and became furious, and sent Rou Nu to the palace to be a palace maid.

Because no matter which son is given to them, they will be disgusted because of this, and even if they don't marry the slaves, it is possible that they will have an affair with any of them after marriage, which will not cure the root cause.

Later, Wei Zongyong married a relative, and Bao's maiden ancestor only served as a few minor officials and was not prominent, but the old man said that women don't have to be noble, they need to be chaste.

I took a fancy to the peace and stability of the Bao family, and the Bao family was good-looking and polite.

But soon after, he found that his wife, like his biological mother Zhang, was a very strong woman, but her words were quieter and her demeanor was more demure.

But what remains unchanged is that Wei Zongyong's words and deeds must act according to her will, otherwise she will have a thousand ways to make herself uncomfortable.

Wei Zongyong hated this feeling from the bottom of his bones, but he could only bear it, because he was incompetent and had to rely on his biological mother and wife.

It's like treating an animal in a cage, they imprison him and feed him, which makes Wei Zongyong hate and rely on them.

In this family, Wei Zongyong likes the concubine Liu the most, not only because she is young and beautiful, but also because she has always been attentive to herself, and her words always reveal respect and worship for herself.

This is something that Wei Zongyong can't get from the Bao family, and the Bao family also respects him, but Wei Zongyong knows that it is all on the surface, just to set an example for his children.

When Aunt Liu saw that the old man was coming, she asked the nurse to take the sixth lady and the third young master out to play. At the same time, he asked his eldest girl Chunyun to prepare a table of wine and food, all of which the master usually likes to eat.

Wei Zongyong's brows loosened a little, and he sat on the chair and let out a sigh. Aunt Liu hurried over and massaged his shoulders and back, and asked with concern: "The master has been really hard these days, I don't know if the matter of the eldest young master is eyebrow-raising?" ”

When Wei Zongyong heard this, he sighed several times in a row, and said: "It's a mess now, the spring warbler's house is biting tightly, and it's not easy to be accommodating, it's difficult!" ”

"It's really strange that this spring warbler is dead," Aunt Liu has a small long face, small mountain eyebrows and apricot eyes, a small mouth is more tender than peach petals, and the slender ten fingers fall on Wei Zongyong's shoulder, and the warbler's voice falls on Wei Zongyong's heart: "Why did I hear in a trance that this spring warbler has the heart to cling to the master, and it has nothing to do with the eldest young master?" ”

Wei Zongyong was startled, and his tone was annoyed: "That damn nonsense?!" ”

Aunt Liu looked at Wei Zongyong with a pair of wonderful eyes, shook her head innocently and said: "As the saying goes, gossip has no roots, how do I know who said it, but there is indeed such a saying, I have heard it more than once or twice." ”

Wei Zongyong was most afraid that someone would spread such words, because he was weak-hearted, and the Bao family didn't know about him and Chunying.

Chunying died like that, if it is rumored that she has an affair with herself, then the reputation of the Zhiyong Mansion will stink, and the Bao family will not be able to spare herself.

"Master, although this is just a person chewing their tongues, but if it gets out......" Aunt Liu stopped talking on the gown, and the aftermath was lingering, no need to go on, Wei Zongyong already understood what she was going to say.

If this word spreads, there will be nowhere to put his old face.

"Go back and tell the housekeeper to catch these maggots and send them all to Zhuangzi!" Wei Zongyong hated.

The sake and dishes are already on the table, and they are all exquisite dishes with excellent sake.

Aunt Liu has a small kitchen here, and there is an old mother who specializes in cooking Huiquan dishes, which Aunt Liu brought when she entered the door.

Aunt Liu and Aunt Mei are from different backgrounds.

Aunt Mei's maiden family is a dilapidated merchant and is already low.

Aunt Liu is different, her family was originally a prominent family in Hedong, if it weren't for the fact that her grandfather was dismissed from her official position by Zhulian and lost her father in her early years, how could Aunt Liu be downcast to the point of being a concubine.

Her background is incomparable to Aunt Mei, and even the Bao family has to respect her for three points.

Because her great-grandfather served as a court judge, Bao's ancestor has the name of master and apprentice.

Wei Zongyong drank a lot of wine and ate too little food, and after a while, he was half drunk.

Aunt Liu was accompanying her, but suddenly burst into tears.

"What are you crying about? What grievances have you suffered? Wei Zongyong asked her.

"Master, you have to take care, otherwise who can we count on to go?!" Liu Shizhu burst into tears, and the red silk handkerchief in his hand was soaked.

"You don't have to worry, I'm fine." Wei Zongyong opened his eyes and said: "There will be no big deal in Chang'an, our Zhiyong Mansion can't do it!" ”

He thought that the Liu family was afraid that he would be affected by Wei Chang'an and lose his knighthood and be dismissed, but in his opinion, it was impossible for him to have such serious consequences.

Although the spring warbler is a human life, it is just a maid in the final analysis. It's not a relative of the emperor, nor is it a princess.

Even if Wei Chang'an's crime is confirmed, but he is sentenced to imprisonment, the death penalty is basically impossible.

Liu listened to Wei Zongyong's words, and his tears flowed even more fiercely. But he didn't say anything anymore, just hung his head silently.

When Wei Zongyong saw her like this, he simply went out of the house to Crispy.

He had already eaten wine and food, and he was only resting here, and benzoin was burning in the incense burner, which was the most soothing and sleeping.

"Master, I died so miserably!"

"Master, why don't you beg Madame to accept me? So that I won't die. ”

Wei Zongyong had a nightmare, and there was a gloomy mist in his dream, and the spring warbler was disheveled, standing in front of him and crying in disheveled clothes.

"Master, why are you so afraid of Madame? Listen to her in everything. Madame can't let the eldest young master give me my life, master, come down and accompany me! ”

Chunying said and pulled Wei Zongyong, her hands were white, her nails were black, and blood was constantly dripping.

Wei Zongyong woke up in fright, and Liu was not around.

There was a murmur outside, it was crispy and people talking.

In addition to the two maids, there is also a half-old aunt around Su Su, her parents died when she was a child, and she has no relatives, this aunt is her distant cousin, or she has known each other in recent years.

"Girl, why are you so dead-eyed?" Crispy's aunt said worriedly that she had always called Crispy a girl: "In order to protect her son, the Duchess Zhiyong did not hesitate to spread rumors to slander the master, saying that the eldest young master was guilty of his father. The master is really in prison, what should you do if you don't even have an identity?! ”
