Chapter 104: The Past (1)
Seeing that Hongmei has something to tell Fu Duoduo, Chunfu automatically goes to guard the door, so that no one will break in by mistake.
Fu Duoduo stopped her and said, "No, it's not a big deal, you can stay and listen together, maybe you can say a word or two." ”
Chunfu thought about it, and felt that it made sense, so he turned around and opened the door of the east room widely, and also lifted the hanging felt curtain, so that if someone entered the house, he could notice it at the first time, and it also avoided someone listening to the root of the wall and not noticing.
For these actions of Chunfu, Fu Duoduo was very pleased, and couldn't help but bow his head slightly with satisfaction.
Chunfu's face was slightly pale, and he was a little embarrassed to sit down next to Hongmei.
Seeing that it was almost noon, he was going to serve Yu Shiyi for dinner, not much nonsense, Fu Duoduo was busy getting to the point, and said to Hongmei: "There is not much time, you start talking!" Let's start with the second aunt. ”
Hongmei got busy, blessed her body, and promised respectfully.
Fu Duoduo waved her hand to sit down and talk.
Hongmei more or less understood Fu Duoduo's temperament, and did not excuse herself, sat back, and said: "According to the slave maid's inquiry, before the second aunt entered the Yu Mansion, the Yang family was just an ordinary family, and later in order to be able to donate an official to Master Yang, the second aunt was sent to the Yu Mansion as a concubine in exchange for money. ”
Fu Duoduo was stunned and asked, "Is it Master Yang's idea?" Is it willing to do so? She didn't expect that the second aunt would have such ups and downs.
Hongmei shook her head and said, "No, it's what the mother-in-law in front of her meant, and Master Yang just didn't object." As for reluctance, the second aunt is just a concubine, if she can contribute to the family, where will she be reluctant? As he spoke, the corners of his mouth raised a touch of sarcasm.
"The grandmother in front?" Hearing these words, Fu Duoduo's heart jumped and asked, "You mean that the grandmother who sent her into the Yu Mansion has ......?"
Hongmei nodded and said: "You guessed right, the original Mrs. Yang had incense to repay her vows not long after Master Yang donated a petty official, and on the way back, the horse was frightened and ran around wildly, and the groom couldn't control it, which finally caused Mrs. Yang to die tragically under the horse's hooves." ”
Hearing this, Fu Duoduo couldn't help but exclaim in surprise and asked, "Then can you finally find out why the horses are frightened?" ”
Hongmei shook her head and replied: "No, it was said that this horse went crazy suddenly, and when I checked afterwards, I didn't find anything suspicious, and in the end, this matter was over, and Mrs. Yang was unlucky." ”
"Bad luck?" Fu Duoduo sneered, always feeling that the cause of Mrs. Yang's death was full of all kinds of doubts.
However, she had no interest in being Sherlock Holmes now, and waved her hand for Hongmei to continue.
Hongmei understood, and then said: "Master Yang is also a person who can speak well, and do things to the left and right, after donating a petty official, he quickly got along with his colleagues very well, and in just two years, he was promoted from an unknown petty official to a county magistrate of the eighth grade, and then quickly through his colleagues as a matchmaker, he married the daughter of the county order, which is now Mrs. Yang. This Mrs. Yang can be regarded as a person, she took the Yang family into control within half a year, and put the young masters and young ladies left behind in front of her honest. After Master Yang slowly got better, the second aunt became more and more diligent with her mother's family, and she got along very well with Mrs. Yang. ”
"Good with Mrs. Yang?" Fu Duoduo thought it was a little weird.
Hongmei nodded "yes".
Fu Duoduo asked again: "Is it because of the second aunt's better and better family background, so the eldest lady has some scruples, and she will be afraid of one or two in the past, and will not do anything to her?" ”
Hongmei responded: "Probably so." ”
Seeing that Hongmei was not very sure, Fu Duoduo looked at Chunfu.
Chunfu recalled carefully and added: "When the second aunt entered the door, the eldest master only had a son, the eldest young master, and the old lady was more worried about the thin heirs of the eldest master. ”
Fu Duoduo said: "The family background of the second aunt, coupled with the old lady covering the back, is no wonder that the eldest lady does not dare to be strange." After a pause, he remembered Miss Zhu San, and asked again: "By the way, what's going on with the niece of the second aunt?" Is it Mrs. Yang's in the back? Thinking about the age, it didn't seem right, and thinking that the second aunt said that Miss Zhu San was the daughter of her sister-in-law, so it could only be the daughter left by Mrs. Yang in front, so Fu Duoduo immediately changed it and asked: "How many children did Mrs. Yang leave behind after the death of Mrs. Yang in front, how did they live in the end?" This Miss Zhu San's mother is Mrs. Yang's first child. ”
Hongmei replied: "Mrs. Yang in front of her had an eldest son and an eldest daughter, the eldest son grew up to be mediocre, and only knew how to walk the dark streets and alleys all day long, without a serious appearance, the eldest daughter was arrogant and domineering since she was a child, even if she married a woman and did not restrain one or two, she suffered a lot in her mother-in-law's house, and she was pregnant two years after she entered the door, and she also gave birth to three daughters in a row, and finally died before getting a son. Because after giving birth to Miss Zhu San, she had a son, and Mrs. Zhu, that is, the second aunt's sister-in-law, doted on Miss Zhu San very much. ”
Miss Zhu San?
Fuduoduo's mind immediately thought of that first meeting in the courtyard.
She felt that if she continued like this, this Miss Zhu San would be spoiled like her own mother, and sooner or later she would taste the bitter fruit.
Shaking her head slightly, these things don't matter to her anyway.
It's just that I heard Hongmei say so much, there is one thing that Fu Duoduo doesn't understand very well, that is, does the second aunt have a good relationship with her sister-in-law? Impossible!
As soon as she had this doubt in her heart, Hongmei explained: "When the second aunt was still in the boudoir, she was bullied by her sister-in-law, and later I heard that the reason why the second aunt would enter the Yu Mansion was that the eldest lady of the Yang family had a lot of credit, and often slandered the second aunt in front of her mother, saying that she was not, which increased Mrs. Yang's desire to send the second aunt to the Yu Mansion as a concubine. ”
"Then why ...... "Why does the second aunt still take Miss Zhu San to Yufu now?"
Before Fu Duoduo finished asking, Hongmei answered: "That's because the husband married by the eldest lady of the Yang family is not rich and noble, and her husband is only white, and there are only a few acres of thin land in the family." Of course, the eldest lady of the Yang family hopes that her beloved daughter will marry into a wealthy family, so the second aunt revealed her meaning slightly, and she was busy sending Miss Zhu San here. ”
"Oh, I see!" Fu Duoduo suddenly realized and said, "It seems that this second aunt does have good means. ”
Chunfu added on the side: "After the slave maid learned that the second aunt entered the house, she often secretly helped Master Yang at the beginning, so now that Master Yang's career is smooth, he feels very indebted to the second aunt, and will send someone to send some rare playthings to the second aunt every month." It's just that the second aunt didn't accept it six times out of ten, and they were all given to the current Mrs. Yang in a corner, and the second aunt also personally cut clothes for Mr. Yang every month, which made Mr. Yang feel guilty about the second aunt. After speaking, he paused slightly, and asked Fu Duoduo with anticipation: "Auntie, what I said is useful?" ”
Fu Duoduo smiled: "Useful and useful, of course it is useful!" ”
Hearing this, Chunfu was full of smiles and looked very satisfied.
Fu Duoduo shook his head and smiled, and Hongmei couldn't help but purse her lips and laugh.
Chunfu was very embarrassed, twisting his body and pouting his fleshy mouth.
Seeing this, Fu Duoduo nodded Chunfu's forehead and said, "You girl, you have grown more and more, I said before that you have grown a lot, but now you have retreated." ”
"Auntie......" Chunfu stretched out his voice and coquettishly.
Fu Duoduo didn't tease her anymore, took a sip of tea, and said very seriously: "Look at the second aunt's things, you should also know that she is not a fuel-efficient lamp, you usually have to be more careful if you meet the second aunt, her revenge is not weak, it can be said that she is very strong, her sister-in-law is a good example." ”
Chunfu and Hongmei responded solemnly and solemnly.
Fu Duoduo was still not at ease, and asked again, after all, the second aunt's city is very deep, and if you are not careful, you will be doomed.
After seeing Chunfu and Hongmei firmly in mind, Fu Duoduo changed the topic and asked about the third aunt.
Hongmei replied: "The third aunt's maiden family has business dealings with our Yu Mansion, plus the eldest young master has been sick for nine out of ten days, and the old lady has seen that the ladies and aunts in the house have not been pregnant for a long time. As soon as the news came out, many matchmakers came to the door to say goodbye. Later, the old lady took a fancy to the daughter of the Lin family, who was in the rice business, and thought that the Lin family would disagree, but she immediately sent someone away. ”
Fu Duoduo said: "I'm afraid the reason why the Lin family is like this is because I think the third aunt will get pregnant and give birth smoothly!" ”
Hongmei replied: "Presumably so, otherwise I wouldn't have sent my daughter." ”
Fu Duoduo said sarcastically: "I just didn't expect the world to be unpredictable, the third aunt not only did not give birth to a big fat boy, but she didn't even show signs of pregnancy, and the Lin family's original abacus was in vain, and they lost a daughter in vain." ”
Hongmei smiled: "Who said it wasn't, presumably the third lady of the Lin family was sent here this time to make up for the shortcomings of the third aunt!" The slave maid inquired that this Miss Lin San was also a serious young lady, and she was the daughter of the third aunt's brother. As he spoke, he glanced at Fu Duoduo and said: "The slave conjectures that since the third aunt has not been pregnant for a long time, the Lin family has planned to set their sights on the eldest young master, and since she was a child, she has taught Miss Lin San that she is not inferior to the daughter of the official family. In other words, Miss Lin San is a great threat to Fu Duoduo.
