Chapter 53, Be Yourself
Du Ruoruo just came back, the second lady received a notice that from tomorrow all the affairs in the prime minister's mansion will be taken care of by her, when she just got this notice, she almost thought she was dreaming, and she was still the second monk who was confused.
The second lady was originally a singer, where do she know what housekeeping is, she has been compromising for so many years, in order to be calm and peaceful, and now she is suddenly put on the responsibility of being in charge, she is a little afraid.
Where the second lady still sits, she immediately came to Du Ruoruo's room, and as soon as she entered the door, she walked with Lamei Dongxue and the two of them.
Lamei and Dongxue saluted respectfully: "Slave Lamei, slave Dongxue greets the second lady." ”
If Lamei and Dongxue are perfunctory even if they salute on weekdays, but today they are respectful, which makes the second lady a little uncomfortable.
The second lady nodded, and after Lamei and Dongxue went out, the second lady walked in curiously.
"Ruoruo, what happened? Why did the master ask me to be the housekeeper? And how did Lamei and Winter Snow become so docile? ”
Du Ruoruo looked proud: "Mother, you sit down first." ”
The second lady sat down obediently, but she was still a little uneasy in her heart, after all, everything came too suddenly.
"Ruoruo, hurry up and make it clear to your mother, what's going on?"
Du Ruoruo got up and walked to the second lady, stretched out her hand to hold the second lady's arm: "Mother, it's actually nothing, it's just that the eldest lady eats the consequences, and her father punished her, and her father asked you to take care of the house, you can take care of it, don't worry about the rest!" ”
The second lady was not only not happy when she heard this, but frowned.
"Ruoruo, that lady is the niece of the current Queen Mother, and we can't mess with it."
The eldest lady relied on herself as the queen mother's niece, so she was very arrogant on weekdays, and Du Chengqian was also hindered by the relationship between the queen mother, who turned a blind eye to what she did for many years, and never accepted concubines, but the second lady was an accident.
Du Ruoruo looked disdainful when she heard this: "Who she is, I don't care what identity she is, I only know that she provoked me!" The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people! ”
The second lady's eyebrows tightened: "You kid doesn't know that the eldest lady has always been jealous and hateful, and if you provoke her today, she will definitely let you repay it twice as much." ”
Du Ruoruo really couldn't get used to the weak and incompetent appearance of the second lady, and she finally remembered what her father often said, "What others do to you, you give it to others." ”
This sentence is vividly reflected in the second lady.
"Mother, don't say what will happen to the eldest lady in the future, let me ask you, if you don't mess with her, will she let you go? If you really want to hide from the pure, you shouldn't marry into this general's mansion, let alone give birth to me! ”
Du Ruoruo spoke a little heavily in a hurry, and she really couldn't bear the weakness and incompetence of the two ladies.
The second lady was silent for a long time when she heard this, she understood that Du Ruoruo was right, but where did she have the right to choose as a singer!
Du Ruoruo saw that the second lady was silent, she regretted talking too much, although she was telling the truth, but the truth was often very hurtful, so she softened her tone a little.
"Mother, I don't mean to blame you, I just think that we are human beings, flesh and blood people, we are not born to be defeated, we have to learn to fight, only hard work will there be hope."
The second lady didn't expect such words to come out of Du Ruoruo's mouth, she raised her eyes to look at Du Ruoruo with an appraisal face, and suddenly understood that Du Ruoruo had not changed, but grown up.
The second lady reached out and touched Du Ruoruo's long black hair, at first she thought that Du Ruoruo was ignorant, but now it seems that she is mature and her heart is suddenly relieved.
"My mother knows that you have grown up, and my mother has endured her anger for so many years just to hope that you can be safe."
Du Ruoruo smiled: "Mother, now that Ruoruo has grown up, you don't need to compromise anymore, you can be brave and yourself." ”
The second lady knows that this woman is afraid of marrying the wrong man, since she married into the Prime Minister's Mansion, Du Chengqian has never looked at her directly, a woman can't get her husband's favor, where is there any hope.
"Silly boy, my mother has no hope in this life, I just hope that you can find a wishful husband."
