The matter of being divorced by Qingwangfu spread in Chang'an City within a few days, and it was in an uproar, Suning was bored in the west courtyard all day long, and his ears didn't hear anything outside the window, but he was also clean, but the Zhou family was not so calm.

On the first day when he was able to get up from the bed, he led the slave to the shop in the east and west cities to check the business, and heard a lot of gossip, and when he came back, he took his personal maid to the door of the Tanghua Courtyard in the west and pointed at Sang and scolded Huai loudly.

Qi didn't understand Zhou's provocation, not only locked himself in the meditation room and closed the door, but also let Qin'er and Shuang'er look at Suning, not letting her step out of the gate of Tanghua Courtyard for half a step, as if she was ready to compromise and retreat.

Such days lasted for several days, and sometimes Zhou's spicy scolding could be heard before dawn, after Suning was woken up, although he was very annoyed, he had to admire the energy and perseverance of the two ladies, which was really amazing.

For two days in between, she couldn't bear it and almost rushed out, but when she thought of Qi's previous advice, she thought about her three-inch tongue again, and she was afraid that she would lose if she couldn't pass two moves in front of Zhou, so she had to dispel that impulsive idea and obediently listen to Qi's words.

Around the beginning of August, Su Jing returned from other places, and heard that the Zhou family was blocking the door of Tanghua Courtyard and making a fuss, so he hurriedly rushed over to persuade him.

Zhou was already a little short of words, and felt that he was innocent, so while Su Jing was present, he began to make noise about breaking up the family again.

Su Jing's face turned blue with anger, and he scolded: "Points, points, points, most of the Su family's business was laid down by my brother when he followed his father to the north and south, how do you want to divide it?" ”

In just one sentence, the Zhou family was speechless, and led the slave and maid back to the Jichen Courtyard in the east.

Since then, he has not heard the woman's noise, but has often stopped some of the offerings that have been sent to the large house as a way to vent his anger.

The Qi family has always been thrifty, but she didn't take this matter to heart, but she was worried that she would go to Zhou's theory if she was wronged, so from time to time she would take some money from the private treasury and hand it to Qin'er, telling her not to lack her daughter's supply.

Stuffed in this courtyard all day long, how can Suning need to make money or something, after a long time, she even wants to save her clothes, if it weren't for the relatives of the big house mother's family coming to visit from time to time, she really wants to be without makeup, and she doesn't care about anything.

After so forbearance, another half a month has passed, and seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, Suning's heart has a sense of loneliness for some reason.

In the morning of this day, after breakfast, Suning sat leisurely on the swing in front of the courtyard, and the autumn weather was the most chilly, especially in the morning.

Shuang'er was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she took a shawl and put it on her body, and then stood on both sides with Qin'er and slowly rocked the swing for her, and the demeanor of the master and servant looked very lazy.

From time to time, I could hear the chirping of magpies on the branches, Qin'er looked up for the sound, and suddenly whispered to Shuang'er: "I heard the magpies babbling non-stop when I got up early today, and it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival soon, isn't there something happy about to happen?" ”

Shuang'er pouted sullenly: "As long as the second lady doesn't come over to make trouble again, thank God", she said and looked at Suning, who was sitting on the swing in a daze: "What other happy things can there be now." ”

Qin'er sighed and lowered her head silently.

After only a while, she said with a smile to Suning: "Yiniang, the maid went out of the house a few days ago and heard in the fang that a grand event will be held in Qujiangchi in the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, it seems that the saints and those concubines in the palace will also go, and it will be very lively at that time, do you say that the eldest lady will allow us to go?" ”

Without waiting for Suning to answer, Shuang'er on the side glanced at her coldly, and said angrily: "Dead Qin'er, you said this to block Yiniang, you know that Yiniang is ......."

At this point, she didn't dare to continue, Suning looked at her with an embarrassed expression, knowing that this little girl was thinking about herself.

These two girls are lowly slaves bought from the countryside of Yangzhou, and they have been serving by Suning'er's side since they were young, and they are loyal.

A few days ago, the two maids in Qi's room went back to their hometown in Yangzhou to mourn, and Shuang'er stayed in Qi's room to serve most of the time, that is, after Qi's maids came back recently, Shuang'er followed Suning every day like Qin'er.

Speaking of which, her impression of this girl is not as deep as that of Qin'er, but during the time of contact, she felt that Shuang'er was much more serious about things than Qin'er.

Seeing her putting herself in her shoes like this, Suning unconsciously cheered up a little and said what she didn't say: "It's just that she was divorced, it's not a big deal, you still have to watch the excitement that should be watched." ”

It's been more than a month since she came here, and in fact, she also wants to go out and see the outside world, so she tries to describe the impact of the divorce on herself lightly, and begins to brew the courage to go out.

Qin'er was happy to hear this, Yingying smiled and said: "The slave maid also thinks so, the ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, and she is bored in this Tanghua courtyard all day long, and the slave maid is really worried that Yiniang will get sick." ”

"Dead Qin'er, what are you talking nonsense, our family is a Jiangnan woman from Yangzhou, she is talented and beautiful, what an ugly daughter-in-law", Shuang'er said unhappily.

Suning smiled "poof": "Oh, what are you doing so seriously, Shuang'er, she's just making an analogy." ”

"Yes, yes."

Although Qin'er's words are a little ugly, in her opinion, there is indeed some truth, and no matter how difficult things are, you have to learn to face them.

Shuang'er's thoughts were more conservative, even if she didn't care about Qin'er's indiscriminate use of words, she was still not at ease about her instigating Suning to leave the house, and persuaded worriedly:

"Anyway, Yi Niang is not suitable for going out of the house now, a few days ago Qi Er Niang came back with Qingchun to visit Yi Niang, in the eldest lady's room, the slave maid heard the eldest lady and Qi Er Niang mentioned that she was looking for her husband's family for Yi Niang, Qi Er Niang's husband's house is very wide in Yangzhou, and the people who are looking for it must know the roots, and they know very little about what happened in Chang'an City, and the slave maid thinks it is better to wait until the limelight passes, and it is not too late for Yi Niang to go out after becoming a parent."

The Qingchun mentioned in Shuang'er's mouth was the personal maid hired by the Qi family when she was in Yangzhou, and the second lady of Qi, Suning, also had some impressions, she was the sister of the Qi family's mother, and she had to be called an aunt.

Shuang'er's words also sound reasonable, but Suning doesn't quite agree.

In any case, she is also a woman with modern thoughts, and many ideas can persuade her to slowly accept the existing facts.

If you blindly escape, even if the Qi family arranges it for itself very properly, even if you find a good person to go to the mansion to make a living, with this heart knot pressing, I am afraid that life will not be smooth, and it may even be turned out as a ridicule capital in the future.

is only a woman in the boudoir, I am afraid it will be difficult to come out again in this life, which is also a truth that she slowly realized from the dialogue between the two.

……

After arguing for a long time, the master and servant had not yet reached a clear result on whether to go out for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and two familiar figures outside the courtyard gate slowly walked in at this time.

Following the footsteps, Suning recognized the woman at a glance, it was Hui'er, Zhou's personal maid.

Hui'er looked at Suning with some disdain, her eyes seemed to have some mockery, and she said slowly: "The slave maid came over and invited the eldest lady to the guest hall." ”

Suning was already a little congested, seeing that she could be so arrogant about herself as a maid, she was even more unhappy, and she pretended not to see it, and buried her head and shook the swing comfortably.

The thick rattan began to sway violently, making a soft "creaking" sound.

Seeing this, Qin'er and Shuang'er laughed and pushed the swing homeopathically, and the swing swung out farther, and Suning couldn't help but let out a scream of "ahhh

Hui'er was so frightened that she and the maid behind her hurriedly took a few steps back, and then bowed respectfully and said again: "Yu Yiniang, the slave maid came to invite the eldest lady to the guest hall to talk on behalf of the second lady and Ah Lang. ”

Suning clenched the rattan in both hands, and had no intention of stopping, and said casually: "It's noon, I just had breakfast, what is the so-called matter for the second aunt to call my aunt to go at this time?" ”

She unconsciously gave birth to a trace of vigilance in her heart, this has just stopped for a few days, isn't it that the two eldest ladies didn't find happiness in Tanghua Courtyard, and they still want to call the Qi family to the guest hall to count them in person?

Hui'er didn't dare to show a contemptuous posture anymore, looked at each other with warm eyes and replied: "If you go back to Yiniang, it is Zhao Jiasanlang who is here." ”

"Zhao Langjun?"

Hearing this, the movements in Qin'er and Shuang'er's hands suddenly stopped, and the three masters and servants looked at each other with a look of astonishment.
