Chapter 67: An Unexpected Guest
It's just that the only bad thing is that the second miss of the Su family, Ning'er, was killed.
Fei Jingyue was no longer worried that Su Yingying was alone in the Su family at this time, although there was Su Zhangrou's promise, but Su Zhangrou was in the Meng family, and the Su family's affairs could only be scratched through the boots, and the whip was beyond the reach of the whip, it seemed that she had to find a helper for Su Yingying, seeing that there was still more than half a month left in the Tao family's wedding days, she really couldn't be careless.
Not to mention that Yingying is weak in the Su family now, with Mrs. Su's restless heart, how can she tolerate Yingying to find a safe person? It seems that I have to find it here and send it over, which can be regarded as a little heart.
It is also common for the nobles of Dashun to give each other a maid, so even if they send someone to it, the Su family will not say much, and everyone in Dashun knows that Fei Jingyue and Su Yingying are good friends.
She thought about it, wrote a letter of resignation, and ordered Li Xiaoding to send it to Su Mansion, and received a reply from Su Yingying in the afternoon.
Although under the power of the prince, Mrs. Su did not dare to make any more big moves, but she never said anything about finding her a maid again, and Mrs. Su also occasionally felt cold during this time, and it was difficult to shelter, and Su Hanchi ignored it. It's a shame that Fei Jingyue thought of finding a girl for her to send to her, otherwise she might not be able to survive the day of marriage alone, in the Su family, Mrs. Su still covers the sky with one hand, if she is looking for someone who understands, she should be reminded by her side.
It's just that Fei Jingyue's side is capable and quick-witted, but the three of them are not suitable for the past, Tourmaline has to guard Fu Qingrou, Bixi has to keep in touch with Lao Liang, Biyu is even more difficult to go, she is distressed, Bixi has also cultivated a lot of people, but to go to the Su family to protect Su Yingying, I'm afraid it is not easy, besides, this Mrs. Su has suffered such a big loss, how can she tolerate the people around Fei Jingyue, so she has become a living target.
It seems that you have a human tooth, see if you can choose a few smart points, and get through this time.
It's only been half a day since the news was released, and there have been several rounds of people's teeth, but she is not satisfied with the people who have been selected, either they are not smart enough, or they are too tactful, but this matter is imminent, and it is a little tricky.
She was in a dilemma, and there was an unexpected person, who was Su Yingying's future mother-in-law, Mrs. Tao.
Fei Jingyue met her in the Little Flower Hall.
Mrs. Tao looks like an ordinary noblewoman, just like an ordinary official wife, her dress is not unconventional, nor is it too prominent, it is the material that her class often wears, and the accessories she often wears, but Fei Jingyue feels that she is not ordinary, her eyes are full of decisions and ideas, which is very different from the rounded Mrs. Su.
In fact, she has no contact with Mrs. Tao, and the only intersection is probably only Su Yingying, but Mrs. Tao gave her a big salute.
"The Tao Mansion Yue Clan thanked the county lord of Xiaoning."
"Mrs. Tao, what do you mean, please get up quickly." Fei Jingyue was taken aback by her actions.
Everything about Mrs. Tao was unexpected, she seemed to have made a special trip to thank Fei Jingyue, without saying a word, thank you first, and salute first.
Fei Jingyue hurriedly pulled her up and sat down in the first guest seat under the small flower hall.
"I came today for two things, one is to thank the county lord for his care for Yingying, and the other is to send someone over." Mrs. Tao is no longer polite and straight to the point.
"What do you mean by that?" Fei Jingyue became more and more unaware of Mrs. Tao's meaning.
"The county lord doesn't have to be surprised, and listen to the concubine slowly."
It turned out that it was not only the Su family who went to Lingying Temple yesterday, but also the maid of Tao Mansion, because Tao Mansion was going to do a happy event, Mrs. Tao specially ordered the maid to go to the temple to worship an incense candle, which can be regarded as comforting the gods. It happened that this maid passed by Yangliu Street and saw the scene of Su Yingying being robbed, and the maid immediately went back to the house to tell Mrs. Tao, which made Mrs. Tao anxious, and she was bent on how to rescue.
Thanks to Mrs. Tao, she was a very thoughtful person, and she did not make a statement, but quietly ordered someone to inquire about the situation, because this matter was not suitable for making a big fuss, and she could not do much as a woman, so she could only observe the situation first and then make a decision.
Later, the inquirer came back to report, saying that Mrs. Su had also been robbed, she had some vague guesses, but she didn't dare to make a decision too early, until the news that the prince escorted the mother and daughter of the Su family back to the Su family safely, she let go of her heart, and this morning I heard that Su Yingying's maid was killed, Fei Jingyue was in contact with Yazi to buy people, a few things came to mind, and she hurried to Fei Fu, one is to thank Fei Jingyue for coming to the rescue, and the other is to send a trouble-free person to send Fei Jingyue to Su Yingying.
Fei Jingyue was very surprised, this Mrs. Tao cared so much about Yingying, not only did she not dislike Yingying being captured, but wanted to rescue her, and at this time she was even more send-off.
"The county lord didn't know that before the concubine was married, he had a friend whose name was Yingrui. It was this Ying Rui who once saved the life of the concubine, but that day he was only greedy for fun, and was accidentally bitten by a snake, Ying Rui did not hesitate to poison himself, and sucked out the venom for the concubine to survive, but because he was a concubine, Ying Rui was not treated well at home. Even if we both got married, the treatment was different, I married Tao Tian to be the main room, and Ying Rui was just a concubine, but Ying Rui lived up to expectations, and was fortunate to be carried to a flat wife, which was a great joy, but I didn't want to be harmed, and my reputation was not guaranteed, and I hanged myself. ”
After Mrs. Tao finished speaking, she looked sad, but Fei Jingyue already knew that this Mrs. Tao's best friend was Yingying's biological mother, which could explain why Mrs. Tao behaved like this.
Mrs. Tao continued: "After Ying Rui's death, I also know a little about Ying Ying's situation in the Su family, so I want to marry Ying Ying, so I can take care of her for Ying Rui. ”
After saying that, Mrs. Tao wanted to salute again, but was stopped by Fei Jingyue, she said: "Knowing the hidden story, I am relieved, and I am also bothered that Mrs. Tao will take more care of Yingying in the future." ”
Mrs. Tao naturally said yes again and again.
"It's just that, how did Madame conclude that the county lord rescued Yingying?" Fei Jingyue still couldn't understand this, she did it so secretively, no one in the outside world guessed it, they all thought it was the prince's mistake, why was this Mrs. Tao so sure.
At that time, Ying Ying was taken away, and the maid saw that the bandit crossed Mrs. Su and arrested Ying Ying directly, and after Ying Ying was taken away, Mrs. Su cried loudly on the ground, shouting Ying Ying's identity, which was obviously to ruin her reputation. The later news was that Mrs. Su was brutally abducted, and she was not a person all the way. So the concubine has a conjecture, the appearance of the prince is rumored to be a misunderstanding, but if there is a previous guess, this misunderstanding is probably artificial, in Dashun can alarm His Royal Highness the Prince, I am afraid that there are only the seven princes, so ......"
This Mrs. Tao's analysis is really clear and reasonable, and after Yingying marries into the Tao family, she can be regarded as having a backer to take care of such a shrewd mother-in-law, so she can be relieved.
In the end, Mrs. Tao left a girl to leave, this girl looks really calm and witty, and she can use both hands and feet, which is the most suitable for the current Yingying, and in the evening Fei Jingyue ordered someone to send her to Su Mansion, in the name of the county lord of Xiaoning.
Su Hanchi was not ignorant of this incident planned by Mrs. Su, he was just too lazy to ask, and he still had a grudge against Su Yingying's mother, and even had doubts about Su Yingying's identity, so he let Mrs. Su toss, but this matter had already alarmed the prince, so he felt that it was not good, and ordered Mrs. Su to stop, so the person who was sent over in the name of the county lord of Xiaoning, where did he dare to be harsh, and immediately sent it to Su Yingying's side.
This matter is finally complete, since the Su family has been suppressed, and Mrs. Tao's girl is protecting Yingying, it will not be a big problem to stay up for a few more days, so Fei Jingyue sent a letter to Lao Liang and asked him to pass the letter to Qi Xiuli, so that he no longer has to make efforts in the palace to marry in advance, which is troublesome, and secondly, it is always a little unlucky to change the set day.
When Fei Jingyue was talking to the Zhang family in the Xinfo Hall, the Wang family sent 30,000 taels of silver, which was the compensation presided over by the five princes more than two months ago.
Zhang stared at the big boxes, his eyes flashed with greed, and he almost drooled, Fei Jingyue could see it, and his face was really disgusting. No matter how much she slandered in her heart, she had to stay in the Fei family for a long time, and now was not the time to offend the Zhang family, so she didn't show it.
But the Zhang family spoke first: "Yue'er, this is the compensation sent by the Wang family, you will take it back to your courtyard later, but there are so many patterns of silver, more than the silver in the public school, you are a woman, I am afraid you should also be optimistic, so as not to cause trouble." ”
It's really a shameless old thing, she obviously wants to be greedy for ink, and she says it in a high-sounding manner, others don't understand it and think that she Fei Jingyue is not sensible, she doesn't know how to use it in the public, and she swallowed it alone, this Zhang said that there are more than the public middle school, just her greedy ink to pay a gentle dowry, it is more than 30,000 yuan.
Although she was resentful in her heart, Fei Jingyue said: "The family spends a lot of money, and Yue'er is also a member of the family, so how can I take it all back, and leave some supplementary public deposits, which is also deserved." ”
She understands Zhang's vicious son, if she says that all of them are confiscated, Zhang's can also say a flower, she only says that she will leave a part, and Zhang's will not be greedy for ink.
"What Yue'er said is also reasonable, the family expenses are quite large, and you can't earn a few dollars just by relying on those industries in the family, but this silver money can solve a lot of urgent needs." Zhang answered.
"That's all up to my grandmother's decision, just leave a little bit for Yue'er, originally I didn't need any money as a little girl, even if I wore some jewelry, it didn't cost much to use some fat powder, but the last time I entered the palace, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess said that I was dressed too ordinary, and I followed her like a girl, so Yue'er thought about leaving a little and buying some expensive items, so as not to embarrass the house."
Fei Jingyue said it pitifully, but Zhang's didn't sound like a taste, and the eldest princess questioned Yue'er's dress too plainly, which meant that Fei Fu treated her daughter badly.
