Chapter 112: Standing on Three Legs
The cold wind blew on the window lattice, constantly making the sound of "swish", Suning'er ate the cakes sent by Shuang'er, kneeling on the futon was a little sleepy, and unconsciously took a nap.
Su Mansion, which had just fallen at night, had been noisy for a long time, but at this moment it had returned to tranquility.
The Zheng family in the Jichen Courtyard learned from Su Que that Suning'er had caused trouble, and somehow, suddenly became less peaceful. Hearing that Zhou was still angry in the inner hall, he hurriedly took a personal maid and rushed over there.
In the inner hall of the courtyard to the east, on Zhou's graceful and luxurious face, dissatisfaction rose and fell, cloudy and sunny, and Hui'er around him did not dare to say more.
However, Su Ningxiang is bolder, these days I have watched Su Ning'er be arrogant in front of her, so she is the daughter of the head of the family, how can she be so reckless and wild on her head.
At this moment, she couldn't hold back the resentment and excitement in her heart, and said to Zhou with righteous words: "Ah Niang, don't you really want the eldest sister to kneel in the ancestral hall for a while, don't you want the eldest sister to go to Qingwangfu to kneel and apologize?" ”
"That dead girl has always been a high-minded and arrogant character, how can she really go to Qingwangfu to make amends", Zhou scolded with his mouth, glanced at Hui'er, and slowed down his tone:
"Hui'er, you better go over and let her go back to the room, now Qingwangfu is not blamed, I see that Qingwang is very concerned about that dead girl, our Su Mansion will still point to this girl and Qingwangfu in the future, and we can't punish her too heavily."
"Ah Niang, you are just a little soft-hearted", Su Ningxiang pursed her lips disapplausively: "The eldest aunt is already spoiled by the eldest sister, if Ah Niang does not establish some prestige in front of her, even if the eldest sister marries into the Qingwang Mansion, she will not bow down to you in the future." ”
"Heh, she dare", Zhou slapped the table angrily, and said with a gloomy gaze: "As long as the slave family firmly detains her mother in the house, I will see how big a wave she can afford." ”
"Auntie, don't forget, the eldest aunt has talked about moving out of the house several times."
"Move out?" , Zhou frowned: "Let's put it lightly." ”
Although she said this, Su Ningxiang's reminder made her a little worried:
"Your aunt's dowry has been pawned clean as early as when she was in Yangzhou, but you Aya has treated her very kindly over the years, and the Qi family has always been a thrifty person, but I'm afraid that she has saved some furniture over the years, which is not a good thing."
Hui'er saw that the mother and daughter were talking happily, and she also carefully reminded on the side: "A few days ago, Mrs. Dafang took money to ransom Lang of the Lang family, and the slave maid learned from the mouths of those girls in Tanghua Courtyard that Mrs. Dafang seems to have saved thousands of dollars in silver over the years. ”
"Ahhh ”
Su Ningxiang bit her lip tightly, and her face became more and more uncalm: "It's all to blame for A-Niang and Aye, it's okay to raise that mother and daughter with brocade clothes and jade food, and to reward so much silver every month, it's good, if the eldest aunt really wants to move out, even if she doesn't share some family property from the house, she can also put some meager fields." ”
"This matter still needs your nod after all", Zhou thought and said: "The Qi family has been observing the festival for many years, and she has entered the Su family tree, and she still has to take care of some reputation, how can she just leave as a woman." ”
Several people looked at each other, and suddenly became dazed.
Zheng followed the slave in, and happened to see that the mother and daughter were very lost, and they had endured for several months, and now they finally saw that the girl in the big house had signs of re-emergence, how could this flame that was about to burn sink silently.
Only by making the mother and daughter in the two rooms incompatible can she have a chance to breathe.
After looking around the room, she didn't see Su Que's figure, she was very relieved, respectfully shook her body with Zhou, and said with a smile: "I learned that the eldest lady is not in a good mood, and the slave family came to visit, it is not easy for the eldest lady to be in charge of the family, but don't hurt yourself because of some trivial things." ”
Zhou had just been angry with the big house, and when he heard Zheng's words of relief, he couldn't help but feel a ripple of emotion in his heart, and gently ordered her to sit down on the edge of the stove, and ordered the slave maid to serve tea, and then said slowly: "If they are as sensible as Aunt Zheng, the slave family will be relieved." ”
"The eldest lady of the big house and the girl of Na Ning'er did not regard themselves as the Su family after all, so naturally they can't think about everything for the house like the eldest lady."
When the Zheng family entered, she also vaguely heard some remarks that the Qi family wanted to split up, and the Su family was likely to rely on Su Que to inherit the family business in the future, so she naturally couldn't tolerate the separation of the big house:
"Right now, our Su family is a good time to work hard, the eldest lady and Ah Lang have raised the mother and daughter for many years, and now it's time for them to contribute to the Su family, you can't let Ning'er come to the house, a while ago Qingwangfu came to the house to regain relatives, needless to say, the convenience that our family got in the business field needless to say, only by firmly grasping this rope, the Su family can achieve it overnight."
"What's the use of Aunt Zheng talking these empty words", Su Ningxiang glanced at Zheng with disdain: "Such a simple truth, don't my aunt understand, even if the Qingwang Mansion is not good, it is also a relative of the emperor, and of course this family business must be maintained." ”
After thinking about it slightly, she suddenly had a bold idea: "Ah Niang, Xiang'er heard that there is a secret between King Qing's Mansion and our Su family, although King Qing has a noble status, as a saint of the two pilgrimages, Uncle Huang, it is inevitable that he will be suspicious of today's saints when he arrives in the new dynasty. ”
After such a detailed analysis, she said very firmly: "So King Qing doesn't want to marry the eldest sister sincerely, in this case, why should A-Niang go to the trouble of stuffing the eldest sister into the Qingwang Mansion, Xiang'er is A-Niang's biological daughter, if Xiang'er is allowed to marry into the Qingwang Mansion, Xiang'er will definitely do her best to ask King Qing to help our Su family in the future." ”
"You?" , Zhou Shi was suddenly surprised, hesitated, and she gradually frowned: "Where did you hear these untrustworthy rumors?" ”
"A-Niang, if you think about it, everyone in the world knows that the first emperor was lazy, ignoring the government and politics, and he was still young when he succeeded to the throne, so he naturally had no thoughts about King Qing, and when he was a pilgrim, he was different, he wanted to reshape the superplan, rectify the inside and outside, and he would not want the royal family to be too prominent, and it took a lot of twists and turns for the saints to succeed to the throne today, and the bloody wind in the royal family is still rare in the past dynasties."
"You girl, at a young age, you don't study the things of female celebrities and virtues on weekdays, and you care about some court disputes, it's too unorthodox."
Zhou didn't expect that his daughter would have such insight, and he really looked down on her, but it was a pity that she was a daughter, otherwise she would naturally be able to glorify the lintel for the Su family.
