At this time, Zhong Lingting leaned into Chen's ear and said a few words, Chen glanced at her in surprise, then thought about it, she turned her head and said to Zhong Lingyu: "You don't need to threaten me, our Chen family style is strict, and it is impossible to do what you said." If you are not afraid of being embarrassed, just go to the Ye family to make trouble, anyway, it is not the face of our second room that will be lost. ”

"Don't go, you're not embarrassed enough, aren't you?" Old Madam Zhong lowered her face and said to Zhong Lingyu.

"Hmph, is your heart weak and you don't dare to ask me to make trouble?" Zhong Lingyu sneered at Chen, but ignored Old Madam Zhong.

This old lady pretends to be extremely virtuous on the surface, but she is extremely eccentric in her bones.

"I'm afraid you'll lose face for our Zhong family." Chen replied vigorously, and then pulled Zhong Lingting out. She was in a hurry to find out what Zhong Lingyu was talking about.

Seeing that Su Yuwan ignored her, Mrs. Zhong wanted to provoke Chen's back, she slapped the table with a "snap" and said to Zhong: "The good daughter you taught, you don't even pay attention to my words." How unreasonable! ”

As soon as Chen left, Zhuang seemed to have his bones removed, and his body softened.

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhong was angry, and as soon as her knees were weak, she was about to kneel down and plead guilty. Zhong Lingyu helped her up and said to Mrs. Zhong: "Grandmother, I advise you not to overdo it, our big house is not without support." What my second uncle and aunt did to me, I immediately wrote to my uncle and grandfather about it. These things must be done justice. As she spoke, she dragged Zhuang and walked out.

Zhuang wanted to struggle, but when he heard Zhong Lingyu's words, he suddenly stiffened, and he didn't need Zhong Lingyu to pull her, he stood up straight and followed Zhong Lingyu out.

Mrs. Zhong trembled with anger, and with a flick of her sleeves, she swept the cup on the table to the ground, and the broken porcelain pieces splashed all over the ground with a "dang bang".

Kong stood there, looking at the slightly empty room after the people in the big room and the second room left, his fists clenched, and he didn't know the pain when his nails were pinched into the flesh.

The big house and the second room attacked each other, shirked the responsibility, and her Ru'er's good family affairs were destroyed, who should she go to for justice?

Kong Shi came out of Chunran Hall with a heavy heart, and it was not until she entered the courtyard of the third room that she stopped and ordered: "Send someone to check the Ye family's courtyard mentioned by the eldest lady to see which Chen family girl lives in it." ”

"Yes." The maid bayberry replied in a low voice and left quickly.

She is the big girl next to Kong's side, and she is most valued by Kong's on weekdays. But in recent days, Tujuan's maid has not only been promoted to a first-class maid, but also behaved positively, and is more and more valued by Kong's family, which makes Yangmei have a sense of crisis and want to find an opportunity to express herself. Now, the opportunity has finally arrived.

In less than half a day, she came back and said: "The one who lives in the Ye family's courtyard is not the girl of the Chen family, but it is Wei Jiaxin, the maiden niece of Second Mrs. Chen. She once followed Second Mrs. Chen to the Zhong family at the funeral of the eldest lord. ”

Kong Shi held the teacup for a moment, raised his head, and his eyes were cold: "How does Miss Wei look?" ”

"The appearance is comparable to that of the eldest lady."

With a "dang chang", Kong put the tea cup on the table heavily, and the tea soup in the tea cup spilled out and flowed down the edge of the table to the ground.

Kong Shi didn't see this at all, her gaze had already crossed the high wall and fell straight to the second room, and her voice was full of hatred: "Chen! You ruined my daughter's family affairs, and I am inseparable from you. ”

Zhong Lingyu sent the Zhuang family back to the room, she went back to the Winter Moon Pavilion, summoned Granny Lu and the four maids over, and asked Granny Lu first: "Nurse, I want you to go to my mother's side to serve, what do you say?" It doesn't matter if you don't want to. ”

Granny Lu is her nurse, and she has no children and no daughters, so she treats her as her own daughter. The relationship between the two is deep, not a mother and daughter are better than a mother and daughter, if she can, she is unwilling to let Granny Lu leave her, presumably Granny Lu is even more reluctant to her. But in the Zhuang family, in addition to being loyal to the Zhuang family, Mama Zhang's ability is not enough; Ding's mother seems to be capable, but she always shrinks back when she encounters problems and can't get things done. This time, it can be said that the Zhuang family agreed to withdraw from the family, and Grandma Lu made a great effort. Zhong Lingyu came up with the idea of letting Granny Lu go to Zhuang's side.

Zhong Lingyu's considerations, how could Granny Lu not know. As soon as Zhong Lingyu's words fell, she said without hesitation: "The old body is willing, but when you are old, it is better to be a few young girls who can always accompany the young lady." But if he can serve by his wife's side and let the young lady have no worries, the old slave can be regarded as able to exert a little spare strength and do his part for the young lady. Even if Miss didn't mention this, we tore our faces with the second room, and at a critical juncture, the old slave wanted to mention it arrogantly. ”

Zhong Lingyu glanced at Granny Lu gratefully and nodded.

Some people, some things, don't need to say too much, just keep them in your heart.

She turned her head to look at Xiaogu and Yuyu: "Today, Mrs. beat the second lady, according to the temper of the second lady, she will definitely not give up, she has to fight back." During this time, the two of you will be by the lady's side, especially when you go to the old lady to say goodbye, remember to stay there at all times. ”

"Yes. Miss rest assured, the slave maid is sacrificing her life, and she can't let the second lady hurt her by half a point. Xiaogu said.

Yuyu also chimed in: "Slaves and maids too." ”

Zhong Lingyu nodded.

"Miss, the old slave has something to say." Miss said suddenly.

Zhong Lingyu raised her eyes: "Say." ”

"Xiaogu and Yuchuan are maids after all, and they are afraid that they won't be able to stop the second wife." Granny Lu worried, "If the second lady takes the master's money to punish the two of them, they will have to comply." It was a trivial matter for the two of them to be beaten and scolded, so they were afraid that they would not be able to protect their wife and let their wife be bullied by the second lady in vain. ”

If Zhong Lingyu is the master, he can naturally confront the Chen family and protect Xiaogu and Yuyu. can be replaced by Zhuang's, Granny Lu really has no confidence. Zhuang's is indeed hard today, but Jiangshan's easy-to-change nature is difficult to change, and her weak temperament can't be changed all at once. It was the maid who was beaten instead of her daughter, and she probably didn't have the courage to compete with Chen.

Granny Lu's concerns, Zhong Lingyu naturally took them into account. She waved her hand: "At this point, the nurse doesn't need to worry about it, I have my own opinions." ”

Zhong Lingyu has had an idea since he was a child, and some time ago the eldest master died, the whole big house felt that the sky had fallen, and people were panicking, but Zhong Lingyu forcibly suppressed the sadness in his heart, and arranged the family affairs in an orderly manner one by one, so that everyone in the house had a backbone.

At this time, she said that she had an opinion, and Granny Lu's heart suddenly calmed down.

"Now you go out, in front of Mrs. Li, tell Uncle Yuan to set up a car, and say that I will go back to the village to find the patriarch to comment." Zhong Lingyu instructed Granny Lu, also called Chunli, "Go to the treasury to prepare some gifts, I will take them to my uncle and grandfather." ”

Grandma Lu was stunned for a moment, then understood, clapped her hands and smiled: "Miss, this is a good idea." He turned around and went to work with a smile on his lips. Lichun also left with her.

After a while, Grandma Lu came back, without mentioning what she had just done, and only went to the cabinet to get a cloak, looking like she was ready to wait for Zhong Lingyu to go out.

After a while, Chunli also came back and said, "Miss, the gifts are ready, and the car is ready and waiting at the door." ”

"Well, let's go." Zhong Lingyu stood up and put on his cloak, and took the lead and walked out.

Out of the courtyard gate, through the corridor, as soon as she arrived at the gate, she saw the eldest maid Juying beside Mrs. Zhong hurriedly came out of the gate of the second room, and when she saw her, her eyes lit up, and she shouted: "Miss, the old lady has just sorted out the jewelry box and found that there are a few pieces of jewelry that are suitable for the lady to wear, so ask the lady to pick one." ”

Zhong Lingyu frowned, and said coldly: "I'm going out, you go back and thank the old lady for thinking about me." But I can't wear jewelry in my filial piety, so I'll leave those jewelry to my sisters. So saying, he went to the carriage.

Where was Ju Ying willing to let her go, and grabbed her sleeve: "Miss, you should take it as a good thing, pity me." Otherwise, the old lady still thinks that the slave and maid are incompetent, and the slave and maid must be punished! ”
