The newly built Yongchang Waiting House, Jiao Niang has not been visited, after dinner, Su Qingyin accompanied Jiao Niang to the garden, talking about trivial things at home.

"The old lady lives in the Yangyi Hall, and my father saw that Brother An'er was old, and he didn't have to take care of everything from his grandmother like before, so he gave him a small courtyard alone, behind the Yangyi Hall, but it was quite close to us, and we could take care of what he wanted to do.

Jiao Niang took her hand and said with a smile: "I have always been grateful to my sister-in-law for taking care of Brother An over the years." ”

Su Qingyin said: "Look at what you said, we are a family, what do you say to be grateful." And Brother An is very obedient, and always helps me play with Xi'er, which saves me a lot of worry. ”

Jiao Niang looked at her a few times, and this time when she came back, Jiao Niang saw that his face was much haggard, as if she was preoccupied, Jiao Niang couldn't help but be a little worried, "How are you doing?"

Su Qingyin has never been pregnant since she gave birth to Brother Xi, and she has always wanted to leave three sons and two daughters for the Hua family, but her wish has never been realized.

She felt guilty, so she let Hua Junyi take a concubine into the door last year, and the concubine was very good when she first entered the door, and she was respectful and polite to her, but since she was pregnant at the beginning of the year, she has changed, and she is disrespectful to the main room with her stomach.

However, she only dared to carry people behind her back, and in front of others, she became that humble and cautious concubine.

Su Qingyin smiled reluctantly and said, "Very good." ”

Obviously avoiding her gaze, Jiao Niang was suspicious in her heart, and thought about it: "Where is that second aunt? Why didn't you see her today?"

Amber raised her head and was about to open her mouth to answer, Su Qingyin glanced at her quickly, and then replied to Jiao Niang: "She was not feeling well today, so I didn't let her come out." ”

Seeing that there was something to hide, Jiao Niang said: "Every time I ask about the second aunt, you perfunctory to me, which means that I was not in the capital last year, otherwise, I will not agree to her entering the door." It's not that you can't give birth, our brother Xi is so good, why are you in such a hurry to marry back. I really admire you for sharing your husband with other women. ”

Su Qingyin lowered her head, "I'm not like you, I have given birth to sons one after another, my waist is straight, and no one is urging you to ......."

Jiao Niang's eyebrows furrowed, "Who urged you?

Amber snapped, "It's the old lady." Amber's words were held in her heart, and she had a chance today, "The queen doesn't know, this second aunt is our young grandmother's idea, and the old lady forced the young grandmother to accept it." She dares to be so majestic now, and because the old lady is supporting her behind, she is a member of the old lady's mother's family. The old lady won't tell you this. ”

Jiao Niang only heard that the second aunt was a daughter of a small family, and she only thought that she was just marrying back to inherit the flower family.

"Is there such a thing?" Jiao Niang looked at Su Qingyin in surprise, "Why don't you tell me." ”

In the past, indeed, no matter what the old lady had any idea, it was for the Hua family and her grandchildren.

But now that her heart is bigger, she not only plans for the Hua family, but also for her mother's family.

Let her mother's family marry into the Hua family and be the second aunt of the eldest young master, what kind of calculation is this, and she has to hide this relationship, and no one is allowed to tell her, what is this called?

Jiao Niang raised her eyebrows, "What is Hua Junyi's attitude, how is he to the second aunt?"

It's up to the man.

Su Qingyin hurriedly said: "Junyi rarely goes to her, even if she is pregnant, she hasn't been there a few times. Pulling Jiao Niang, she looked at her face carefully, "Don't blame him, it's common for men to have three wives and four concubines, and he is still very good to me." ”

Jiao Niang knows that she can't restrain other men with the set that restrains Ying Che, there are a few men like Ying Che in the whole world.

"I blame him for what he did, he is not my man, I am afraid that he will spoil his concubine and kill his wife and bully you. ”

"No, it won't. ”

Jiao Niang sighed, "Look at you like this, you know that even if he is good, he can't match the old lady." ”

Amber nodded when she heard this, "The second aunt always wears small shoes for the young grandmother with the support of the old lady, and the young grandmother has suffered a lot of grievances from the old lady." ”

"Amber, when did your mouth become so broken. Su Qingyin reprimanded.

Amber bit her lip and stopped talking, it seems that there are a lot of grievances in her life.

Jiao Niang looked at them, snorted coldly, and said, "Relying on the old lady, relying on an old lady, the provincial relatives of the palace, she didn't come out to greet them, and she didn't look at whether her waist was thick enough." ”

Su Qingyin saw that Jiao Niang's face was angry, and said hurriedly: "I think she has no disrespect, maybe she is really uncomfortable, Niang Niang should be considerate and considerate of her." ”

"You still speak for her. The lady glared at her.

At this time, it was a summer day, the sun was like fire, and walking under the tree could not resist the heat, Jiao Niang wiped her forehead with a handkerchief, and there was a layer of fine beads of sweat.

Sister Yu had a palace maid to play on the swing next to the lotus pond, and after a while, she felt that she was going to be roasted by the sun.

Ran to Jiao Niang's side, "Queen Mother, it's so hot." Jiao Niang saw that her side was wet, and asked the palace maid to change her clothes.

"Now that the sun is above the sky, let's go to the pavilion in front and sit for a while. Su Qingyin proposed.

A few people walked into a pavilion, the locust tree on the top of the pavilion was shady, Su Qingyin instructed people to make tea, because Jiao Niang was pregnant, she couldn't drink strong tea, Su Qingyin asked people to make a pot of flower tea.

The plum petals and snow water of the last year, drinking in the mouth, are refreshing.

Yu'er doesn't like to drink tea since she was a child, she is very resistant, Jiao Niang coaxed her to take a sip to taste the taste, she half pushed and half took a sip, and felt that the taste was good, and drank three cups in a row.

Jiao Niang was afraid that she would be hot and cold at first, and it would not be good for her stomach, so she didn't dare to let her drink more.

Yu'er listened to Jiao Niang and Su Qingyin say that the parents got tired of listening to it for a while, holding a piece of rose cake in her left hand and a piece of osmanthus cake in her right hand, looking around, and suddenly pointed to a courtyard in front of her and said, "Uncle, why is there a house in the garden?"

Jiao Niang followed her fingers, and sure enough, she saw a red-tiled house behind a row of wisteria flowers, and she really didn't notice it just now.

Su Qingyin's face was a little cramped, and after a glance at Jiao Niang, Fang Yan said, "The eldest lady lives there." ”

Jiao Niang's expression froze slightly, the corners of her eyes unconsciously glanced in that direction, she almost forgot about this person, and now the fate has made her life worse than death, but for Jiao Niang, even if she is reborn and is not as good as death, she can't bring her back to life.

"Why don't we go. With Su Qingyin's cleverness, she had already thought that the eldest lady would be more or less related to Jiao Niang now.

Jiao Niang smiled slightly and said, "I haven't seen the eldest lady for many years, so close, there is no reason to pass through the door." Touching Yu'er's face, "Do you want Yu'er to accompany her mother?"
