Chapter 23

Luo Sheng went back to the room like no one, and Sheng Jiayu knelt in front of the eldest lady and cried bitterly.

"Mother, it's all useless for my daughter, I didn't stop my cousin-"

Looking at her daughter, whose eyes were red from crying, the eldest lady was distressed and depressed.

I thought that Sheng Jialan's scandal had been suppressed, but now it is known to everyone, why are these girls so uneasy!

After being stuffed for a while, the eldest lady got up: "It's about the reputation of the Sheng Mansion, come with me to your grandmother." ”

Sheng Jiayu followed the eldest lady to Funing Hall.

Mrs. Sheng has been accustomed to eating the food sent by Luo Sheng in the past two days, and she suddenly didn't send it today, so she felt that it was tasteless, so she heard the big girl Caixia report that the eldest lady was here.

The old lady raised her eyelids: "Please come in." ”

After a while, the bead curtain slammed, and the eldest lady walked in with Sheng Jiayu.

Old Mrs. Sheng glanced at Sheng Jiayu's red eyes, and couldn't help frowning: "What's the matter?" ”

"Don't make amends to your grandmother yet." The eldest lady scolded and told the old lady Sheng the ins and outs.

Old Lady Sheng's face darkened after hearing this.

It's only been a few days, why are there moths again!

Since the granddaughter came, Sheng Fu has actually been laughed at by outsiders many times, but at most, it is laughing at Sheng Fu's bad luck and putting an ignorant cousin girl on the stall, but this time the joke was caused by Sheng Fu himself.

Mrs. Sheng was heartbroken for a while, and glanced at the eldest lady: "Eldest daughter-in-law, you should be responsible for most of this matter." ”

The eldest lady nodded shyly: "It is indeed the daughter-in-law who is not strict in governing the family, and let those subordinates chew their tongues indiscriminately to cause today's incident." ”

If it weren't for those subordinates who spread the rumors that the cousin girl pushed Sheng Jialan into the lake and couldn't tolerate anyone, there would be no injustice for Sheng Jialan today.

After that day, those subordinates who knew the inside story were beaten and closed their mouths, only to see the cousin and the second girl fall into the lake together but did not know the inside story, but chewed their tongues behind their backs.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the rumors quickly spread outside the house, and it was too late to stop them when the eldest lady heard about it.

For the sake of the reputation of the Sheng family, it is impossible for her to stand up and tell the truth, and there have been a few people who love to chew their tongues, and the eldest lady can only secretly hope that this turmoil will pass quickly.

I never thought that the cousin girl was a person who refused to eat at all, and she stood on the street and made things clear.

Old Mrs. Sheng seemed to guess what the eldest lady was thinking, and glanced at her and said, "Plant melons and get melons, plant beans and get beans, today's events are not to blame on Sheng'er." ”

"My daughter-in-law understands."

Sheng Jiayu was a little unconvinced: "Grandmother, my cousin didn't think about our family's reputation at all-"

Old Lady Sheng's face was slightly gloomy: "Jiayu, are you thinking in your heart that your cousin has a bad reputation anyway, so it doesn't matter if there is one more ugly thing?" ”

Sheng Jiayu froze and lowered her eyes.

I have to say that she does have such thoughts in her heart.

Anyway, Luo Sheng's reputation is not good, and what is the loss of another notoriety is better than taking the Sheng Mansion into it.

Mrs. Sheng shook her head: "It's your grandmother and your father who spoil you too much." ”

"Grandmother?" Sheng Jiayu looked up in amazement.

Mrs. Sheng's expression became more and more solemn, and she couldn't hide her disappointment when she looked at her granddaughter: "Grandmother thinks that distinguishing between right and wrong is a truth that you should learn since you were a child. Your cousin came to Sands to have a bad reputation, which was the result of her inappropriate words and deeds, and it was the consequence that she should bear. But Jialan's thing is to pour sewage on her, do you throw sewage on her with a basin, and you don't allow her to hide? ”

"I-" Sheng Jiayu opened her mouth, speechless.

Old Lady Sheng's tone became stern: "Jiayu, you remember, it's not so terrible to have a bad reputation in the eyes of outsiders, but it's terrible that you bend your bones!" ”

Sheng Jiayu was embarrassed by what she said, staring at the ground and eager to find a crack to get into.

Does she really have what her grandmother said was so bad?

Tears of grievance rolled down from the corners of Sheng Jiayu's eyes.

The eldest lady sighed: "Don't worry, your daughter-in-law will definitely discipline this girl well in the future." ”

Old Lady Sheng nodded slightly: "Those who should be sold are sold, and those who should be punished are punished, I don't want to see such a thing happen again in the future." Eldest daughter-in-law, I handed over the house to you to eat two more bowls of rice, not to add to the blockage. ”

sent away the eldest lady's mother and daughter, and Mrs. Sheng ordered Caixia to invite Luo Sheng over.

"Sheng'er, do you know why your grandmother called you?"

Luo Sheng asked without thinking, "Is it because of the dispute with the girl of the Su family?" ”

Old Madam Sheng shook her head: "No." ”

Luo Sheng was stunned.

What else could it be if it wasn't this?

Mrs. Sheng cleared her throat and showed that she didn't care too much: "Grandmother just wants to ask, is the lunch still delivered?" ”

Luo Sheng was stunned.

Mrs. Sheng Zhengse explained: "Diligence and thrift are the consistent family style of the Sheng Mansion, in case the kitchen sends too many dishes, you send them here again, it is not a waste." ”

Luo Sheng twitched the corners of his mouth slightly.

Looking at the old lady's serious appearance, she almost believed it.

"Lunch won't be delivered, Sheng'er has other things to do."

Old Mrs. Sheng covered her heart when she heard this.

"Grandmother is not feeling well?"

Old Lady Sheng sighed: "Jialan's matter is well known, which makes the Sheng Mansion lose face. As long as my grandmother thinks about this, she won't be able to eat a mouthful of food, and she will have no shame to meet her ancestors in the futureβ€”β€”"

Seeing that the old lady had no intention of stopping, Luo Sheng admitted defeat and said, "Send." ”

Old Mrs. Sheng suddenly stopped sighing, coughed and said, "Braised pork is suitable for elderly people with bad teeth. ”

Luo Sheng lowered his eyes: "Just send braised pork." ”

Mrs. Sheng was satisfied and let her granddaughter go.

If something bad happens, if you don't find a good bite to eat, life will be too difficult.

Luo Sheng returned to the house and sat down for a while.

She thought that Mrs. Sheng would blame her, but she didn't expect such a result.

Vote for me with a peach, and repay it with Qiong Yao, since Mrs. Sheng treats her generously, then she will make a pot of braised pork.

Luo Sheng walked into the small kitchen and began to cook this braised pork.

Braised pork is not difficult to say, a pot of red meat is always difficult to eat, but there are many tricks to cooking well.

The first is to choose meat, only choose the pork belly with seven layers of fat and thin with the skin, and one less layer will damage the deliciousness.

Luo Sheng soaked the pork belly cut into even squares in cold water and soaked it in bloody water, and put it in a hot pan to stir-fry.

Hongdou looked at it curiously on the side, and couldn't help asking, "Girl, why don't you put oil in your roasted meat?" ”

"No oil, no water, so that the meat is delicious." Luo Sheng explained casually, seeing that the skin of the meat was yellow, he poured hot water and green onions, ginger, vinegar and other condiments, and when the water boiled, he instructed Light Red to take a spoon and skim out the foam.

This process lasted for a full two quarters of an hour, and Luo Sheng did not stop until the water was no longer foaming.

Put the bamboo shoots, cover, simmer for a long time, and when you can easily poke through the skin with chopsticks, add rock sugar, and after the juice is collected, a pot of braised pork that is crystal clear as amber will be cooked.

Put the roasted braised pork into a shallow-bottomed black clay pot and sprinkle it with finely chopped green onions, Luo Sheng bent his lips: "Send it to Funing Hall." ”
