Mama Wu waved her hand: "Miss, do you see anything else to clean up, if not, let's get in the car and go back." It is estimated that it will get dark early, and if you don't hurry up and leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to get home before dark. ”

"Slave go get your luggage." When Zhidong heard this, he ran into the house without waiting for Zhong Lingyu's instructions.

Zhong Lingyu only brought a few clothes when he went up the mountain, and he had already packed up in winter. At this time, take out the baggage and get on the bus.

With Mama Wu here, Zhong Deqing didn't dare to act even if he wanted to make some trouble on the road, and Zhong Lingyu and his party returned to Bacheng safely.

"Miss ......" Chunli, who went up the mountain with Mama Wu, saw that the carriage was about to arrive at Su's house, so he called Zhong Lingyu and stopped talking.

"What's the matter, tell me." Zhong Lingyu said indifferently.

"The Ye family sent someone to the door. I came in the afternoon, and I haven't left, and now the lady of the Li family is counting the young lady. After Chunli finished speaking, he looked at Zhong Lingyu worriedly.

She was worried that her young lady would be angry.

"Count me down what is not?" Zhong Lingyuqi asked.

"Say ......" Chunli glanced at Mama Wu, "Say that Miss, you don't abide by women's morals, show your face......" Speaking of the back, she swallowed.

Obviously, the Ye family's words are more than these, I am afraid there are even more ugly words, but Chunli does not dare to say them.

These words, if other girls heard them, they would be aggrieved and want to cry. But for Zhong Lingyu, she didn't react as if she didn't say these words.

She said indifferently: "The Ye family said this, it was my good second uncle's idea, right?" ”

Chunli was silent.

This matter is obvious: no one went to the Ye family to chew the root of the tongue, in such a short period of time, how could the Ye family know that Zhong Lingyu had gone up the mountain and came so timely?

The words of the master and servant rested for a while, and Mama Wu interjected at the right time: "The Ye family that Chunli girl just talked about, but the future in-laws of the eldest lady?" ”

"Exactly." Chunli chose to say this in front of Mama Wu, and also had the intention of using the power of the Sun family to suppress the Ye family, and immediately answered, "The Ye family is doing silk business in the city. Ten years ago, when my lord was in business, he encountered robbers, and Mr. Ye happened to pass by and saved my lord's life, and the two families became a good family. When his wife saw that our girl was beautiful, she sent someone to ask for her marriage. My lord was hindered by the grace of saving his life, and he saw that the eldest young master of the Ye family was good-looking, so he promised this family. ”

When Mama Wu heard this, she glanced at Zhong Lingyu, and saw that her expression was faint and she didn't speak, thinking that she was worried, so she patted her chest and said, "Miss, don't be afraid, there are old slaves in everything." After a while, the old slave used the name of the Sun family to talk to them well, and they didn't dare to point fingers and talk nonsense anymore. ”

Zhong Lingyu shook his head and sighed leisurely: "Actually, I don't like this family matter. Dad saw that after the Ye family's business became bigger, the family style was not as good as before, and he regretted that he had the courage to agree to the family affair back then. It's just that withdrawing from relatives is not a good thing for girls, and my mother doesn't agree with it, and my father is worried that it will be difficult to find a good family after quitting, so this matter will drag on. ”

Speaking of this, she smiled apologetically at Mama Wu: "So maybe it's a good thing that they come to make trouble this time." Everyone knows the situation in our family, and if I don't show up, there will be no one in charge of the family. Do you want me to give away my father's hard-earned wealth to others for the sake of my own family affairs, regardless of my mother and younger brother? When the Ye family said this, they didn't care about the life or death of my Zhong family's big house. What is the use of such an in-law? Yu'er thought, leave your relatives as soon as possible. So Mama's kindness, Yu'er is grateful. But in this matter, don't bother Mama first. We'll see what they do. ”

Mama Wu meddled in this matter, just for Zhong Lingyu's sake, and wanted Zhong Lingyu to inherit the love of the Sun family. At this time, Zhong Lingyu was reluctant to let her interfere, she was naturally happy.

Besides, since she recently contacted Zhong Lingyu, she found that this eldest lady of the Zhong family seems to be gentle and easy to talk on the surface, but in fact, she is decisive and very intelligent, and she has her own calculations in everything. Maybe she went back to the Sun family in Fuling and said that the Sun family's wife was interested in this family business.

It may be better to quit the Ye family. Marrying such a merchant is also wronged.

She nodded and said, "So, the old slave will watch." Just miss, don't be too wronged about yourself. ”

"Yu'er will." Zhong Lingyu smiled gratefully at her.

The carriage stopped in front of the Zhong family's big house, Zhong Lingyu got out of the car, and heard someone inside the gate shouting happily: "Miss is back." ”

After a while, several slaves came out from inside and saluted Zhong Lingyu respectfully: "Miss is back?" ”

"Miss has worked hard all the way!"

Zhong Lingyu nodded and led everyone directly into the backyard.

"Miss, are you back? When Madame heard that you were back, she asked her slave and maid to wait for you. A woman in her thirties was standing at the door, and when she saw Zhong Lingyu coming in, she hurriedly saluted.

She was the dowry maid of the Zhuang family, and later married a housekeeper surnamed Ding, and everyone called her Ding's mother.

"You go back to Madame, wait until I go back to the room to change my clothes and then go to greet her." Zhong Lingyu's attitude was lukewarm, and he bowed slightly towards Ding's mother and walked directly to his yard.

Ding's mother smiled and watched Zhong Lingyu enter the courtyard gate, then she turned around, looked in the direction of Qiu Yiju, and sighed.

Usually, Zhong Lingyu is very kind to his subordinates, especially the subordinates of Qiu Yiju, and he has given a certain amount of courtesy and respect. The people in the family who do not envy the people of Qiuyiju feel that they are stained with the light of their ladies, and they can often be rewarded by the eldest lady, and they are extremely decent in front of people. But who can know that the courtesy and respect they received was based on their ability to persuade Madame, and if they could not persuade Madame and let her do something foolish, they would have to bear the wrath of Mademoiselle.

Looking at Zhong Lingyu's attitude just now, Ding's mother knew that the young lady must be dissatisfied with them. But what can they do? Madame, this person, has soft ears, and believes what others say, which is the most coaxing. But when it comes to children's affairs, especially the marriage of the eldest daughter, she is stubborn. The eldest master couldn't do anything about her when he was alive, how could they be persuaded by these subordinates? Not to mention, what about someone else instigating in her ear?

Ding's mother returned to Qiuyiju with a little sadness, and as soon as she entered the door, she shook her head invisibly at Mama Zhang's exploratory gaze, and turned her face to Zhuang and smiled: "The eldest lady has gone back to the courtyard, and said that she will greet you after changing her clothes." ”

Zhuang opened her mouth and was about to speak, when a woman next to her, wearing a white satin dress and a pearl on her head, stretched out her head to look at the sky, and said, "Look, in-laws, am I right?" Seeing that the sky is dark, Lingyu has come back, along the way to the barren mountains and mountains, if you meet the gangster who robbed the money, Lingyu gave birth to a good skin, the gangster saw it, maybe he had bad intentions, then Yu'er was ruined, and we can't let our family marry an unfaithful person, right? The in-laws are also scholars, and they understand the rules the most, and they should know that their daughter's family is nothing more than the word 'chastity', and it is right to not step out of the door. The eldest lady will come in a moment, and you will have to talk about her. Otherwise, we'll have to reconsider this family business. ”

"No, no, no, don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll talk about her later." Zhuang hurriedly waved his hand, and then wiped away his tears, "Alas, she can't do it, my lord left suddenly, leaving us orphans and widows, her two younger brothers are still young, and I don't care about it, seeing that it is picking spring tea, she is forced to come out to take charge." Now that the tea has been picked, the rest of the things are done by the housekeeper. When the time comes, she will stay at home and not go anywhere, I can guarantee that. I also asked my sister-in-law to go back and tell my in-laws that she should be more lenient and forgive Yu'er."
