Mama Gui
Except for the fighting in the north, there has been no major incident in Beijing recently.
After dinner, everyone paid attention to the fact that the bully in the capital, Wang Meng, the second son of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, was beaten and thrown at the door of the Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion.
Wang Meng had several fractures on his body, especially the roots of Wang Meng's descendants who were smashed into a blur of flesh and blood, and he fell into a coma, with a constant high fever, and the doctors said that it was difficult to recover from a serious illness, and even if he survived, he would not be able to do anything.
"Mother, he ...... a fierce child" Weiyuan Marquis Wang Jin knelt in front of the old lady and wept bitterly.
The old lady also had tears in her eyes, "The Hou Mansion can't be stigmatized, and Meng'er must give up." I know you are reluctant, but with such descendants, how can the Wang family gain a foothold in Beijing. ”
Wang Jin fell prostrate on the ground and wept bitterly.
That night, Wang Jin came to the courtyard where Wang Meng was, and the medicine was full of energy.
Wang Meng's lower body was covered with gauze, he was not unconscious as rumored by the outside world, he was still conscious, and when he saw Wang coming in, he rolled his eyes and muttered, "Dad, the child is wrong, the child will never harm them again in the future......"
When those people beat themselves, they asked themselves if they remembered how many women from good families they had harmed?
Wang Jinhu had tears in his eyes, "Meng'er, you go well, my father will avenge you." ”
Wang Meng also cried, "Dad, don't, the child knows that he is wrong, and the child will never cause trouble for the family in the future." The child still wants to live......"
Wang Jin was ruthless, and Wang Meng's crying voice stopped abruptly, and he was already angry! In order to protect the face of the family, the Wang family must not have a young eunuch, Wang Jin wants to protect not only his career, but also the glory of the Wang family.
Looking at the young son's desperate face, Wang Jin's eyes were round, "Meng'er, you can go with peace of mind, the prince and that Huo family girl killed you, I will definitely take revenge." ”
I heard that Wang Meng's condition was suddenly dangerous, and his whole body was convulsed, I heard that Zhu Guifei in the palace sent a doctor to see and said that she couldn't be saved, I heard that Wei Yuanhou stayed in the ancestral hall all night, I heard that Mrs. Weiyuan Hou wanted to find a good family daughter Chongxi, and I heard that Jing Zhaoyin never found the murderer......
No matter how it is spread in Beijing, the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion is finally hung with white flags.
Most of the people in Beijing applauded, Wang Meng was notorious, and the people said that he died cleanly, and he finally didn't have to worry about his good girl being killed by him.

In the spring, the flowers bloomed just right, and the flower room sent a lot of flowers for Huo Shui'er to choose, Huo Shui'er was pruning a few blooming calendulas, and inserted them into the navy blue square bottle, and the orange-red petals made the room a little more warm.
Hongli always likes to pick up some interesting things to listen to with her, from those things in the backyards to the rumors in the market, and naturally she didn't miss Wang Meng's fate, "I heard that Wang Meng was gone, and Mrs. Weiyuan Hou went crazy." ”
"Where is the madness, it is the hatred in the bottom of my heart." Huo Shui'er put down the scissors and cleaned her hands in the basin, "The Qin family seemed to want to marry the only daughter of the county lord of Qinghe for Wang Meng, but the county lord rejected it, and spread rumors everywhere, saying that the daughter of the county lord of Qinghe was born with an ugly appearance and a violent temperament. Now Wang Meng died, and everything fell through. It can also be regarded as a clean of the Qinghe County Lord's Mansion. ”
"With Wang Meng's appearance, Mrs. Weiyuan Marquis also wants him to marry the daughter of the county lord?" Hong Li was dumbfounded. Wang Meng is fat and ugly, not to mention, he is also famous, which serious noble girl wants to wade into this troubled water.
The county lord of Qinghe is the second son of the old Zhongjing Marquis, who was originally from a noble background, and the relationship between the two families was originally not bad, because the Qin family did this too much, and there were many rifts with the Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion.
Huo Shui'er turned the vase left and right, trying to find a good-looking angle, "Wang Meng is the second son, and he can't inherit the title himself, the Qin family has always connived at him, and the idea of starting the county lord's mansion is not difficult to explain." Besides, the Qin family also has an older brother who is the Duke of Xunguo, so I think someone will support her. ”
Shisu came in with a small porcelain bowl, "Girl, the white fungus soup just sent from the kitchen." ”
The small bowl of blue and white porcelain is filled with snow-white white fungus soup, and there are two or three red wolfberries floating, but the white fungus is crystal and lovely.
Shisu put down the porcelain bowl and said mysteriously, "I just heard that the Duke of Xun Guo has been dismissed from his post and is waiting to be handled." Even the Xunguo Mansion was sealed, and no entry or exit was allowed. ”
Huo Shui'er scooped a mouthful of white fungus soup, and swallowed it until the sweetness filled his mouth, "Let's not talk about the things in the court." However, if something really happened to the Xunguo Mansion, the Qin family's life would be very sad. ”
Shisu was embarrassed to stick out her tongue, "Does the girl still have to practice calligraphy today?" ”
Huo Shui'er shook her head, a few days ago, in order to familiarize herself with the original owner's handwriting, she hid in the study to practice calligraphy when she was fine, but she had other things to do today. "Shisu, you pick out some nourishing herbs from the warehouse, and I'm going to take them to see Mama Gui."
The perilla is crispy and raw.
Hongli listened to Huo Shui'er say that she was going to see Mama Gui, and smiled happily, "Mama must be happy to see the girl." ”
Huo Shui'er was so satisfied that she looked at the marigolds she had inserted, occupying the body of the original owner, and she always had to be kind to the people around the original owner.
Bai Zhi entered the inner room at this moment, "Girl, the maid sent by the master." “
"Let her in."
"Girl, the old lady said that the old lady will bring Miss Biao from her hometown in Yangzhou in a few days, and let the girl follow to clean up the yard." The little maid must have come over for the first time to pass the word, and her voice was timid.
"When you go back to your father, you will say that Shui'er knows, and you should pack up the original Rongqing Hall for your grandmother to live in, and Miss Biao will be placed in the Meiyun Courtyard next to Rongqing Hall." Huo Shui'er saw that this girl was very young, but she was only eleven or twelve years old, so she asked Hongli to grab a handful of milk crisp with her.
The girl smiled and walked away.
"What cousin?" Huo Shui'er was confused, Huo Shui'er was originally a female partner in the original book, and where did she get a cousin. I don't say anything in the book.
While sorting out the dress she was going to wear later, Hongli said indignantly, "What kind of lady is she?" It's just a little bit of kinship with the old lady, and I don't know how to get the old lady's liking, and I raised it in front of the old lady when I was young, but I didn't care about the granddaughter of the girl's relatives at all. ”
As she spoke, Hongli was angry and puzzled, "The last time she came from Yangzhou, she was only eleven or twelve years old, and she was so vicious that she pushed the girl into Hantan in winter, and she jumped into it, but instead falsely accused the girl of pushing her, and the girl was sick for several days, have you forgotten?" ”
Huo Shui'er laughed dryly a few times, stirring the white fungus soup in her hand, "Where did you forget, but I don't really want to remember this file, at first glance, I can't react to her." ”
"The girl has a good heart, but the slave and maid can't see her scheming appearance." Hongli seems to have a lot of opinions about this young lady who has not met.
Listening to Hongli's narration, this girl who knows the classic palace fight plot at the age of eleven or twelve, is probably not a good person.
Huo Shui'er swallowed the last bite of white fungus soup, "You go and see if the perilla is ready." We'll get out of the house when we're ready. ”
After all, it hasn't been done yet, and it's useless to talk more, Huo Shui'er thought, if she has some doubts, she can still ask Mama Gui later.

The house where Mama Gui lives is in the suburbs of Beijing, the yard is full of flowers and trees, surrounded by mountains and rivers, quiet and leisurely, and it is a good place for the elderly.
The old woman wore a simple floral blue skirt, no brocade on her body, but a cotton and linen dress, and smiled so much that she put the steaming plate on the wooden table, on which were stacked with neat and white peach cakes, "Girl, you loved to eat the peach cakes made by Mama when you were a child, come and see if Mama's craftsmanship has regressed." ”
The old man's kind smiling face coincided with the face of the modern grandmother, Huo Shui'er's tears burst out of her eyes, and she hugged Mama Gui tightly, "Mama......"
Mama Gui touched her head, "It's so big, I still like to be coquettish." ”
Huo Shui'er was so shy that she got out of Mama Gui's arms and stuck out her tongue.
Mama Gui pushed the peach slice cake towards her, "Quick, it's just out of the pot, it's hot, try it." ”
Huo Shui'er rubbed her hands, carefully took a piece of peach cake and put it in her mouth, it melted in her mouth, sweet but not greasy, the walnut kernels were a little bitter, she couldn't wait to eat several slices, and she couldn't help nodding, "It's delicious!" Delicious! Mama's craftsmanship hasn't changed at all. ”
Mama Gui looked at her distressedly, "Eat more, aren't you in charge of the Zuo Xiangfu, why did you lose so much weight?" ”
"Harm, Mama, I'm here to keep in shape." Huo Shui'er said with a big heart, "It's not good to look like a fat girl, so what can I do." ”
"It's good to look fat when you're fat. Your waist is so thin that it looks like it's about to break if you use a lot of force. Mama Gui disagreed and said, "Hongli, you have to keep an eye on the girl, and you are not allowed to eat less at every meal!" If she doesn't listen, she'll tell me! ”
Hongli smiled and narrowed her eyes, "Okay! I'll supervise the girl well! ”
Huo Shui'er stopped doing it, "Hongli, you traitor, hum." ”
After laughing for a while, Mama Gui noticed the unfamiliar faces in the room at this time, "These two girls are newly promoted by you?" ”
Huo Shui'er beckoned Bai Zhi and Zi Su to get closer, and introduced them to Gui Mama one by one, "Mama, this is Shi Su, her medical skills are good, and her heart is also fine, this is Bai Zhi, who is strong in martial arts, and is a female chivalrous guest!" “
Bai Zhi said shyly, "The girl praised it falsely." Shisu also replied, "It is our blessing to serve the girl." ”
Mama Gui smiled and nodded, "It looks like a very good child, and I feel a lot more at ease with you taking care of the girl." ”
Huo Shui'er suddenly held Gui's hand, "Mama, I want to ask you something about the past." ”
Mama Gui seemed to be very sensitive to these two words in the past, and suddenly suppressed her smile, "Hongli, you take Shisu and Bai Zhi to the kitchen to see if the dishes are ready." ”
Hongli retreated.
Mama Gui held Huo Shui'er's hand instead, her eyes full of love, "If you have anything you want to ask, just ask." ”
"My father sent someone to tell me today that my grandmother was going to bring my cousin from Yangzhou." Huo Shui'er looked at Mama Gui's face full of wind and frost, and felt a little distressed. "Mama, why didn't my grandmother live in the capital in the past?"
When the Zhang family was there, the old lady could say that she stayed in Yangzhou in order to keep the old house, but the Zhang family was gone, and the old lady was still staying in Yangzhou, so it couldn't be said, regardless of her own granddaughter, she went to raise a few cousins of the girl, which didn't make sense.
Mama Gui sighed, "Girl, I shouldn't have talked about the master's affairs, but since you asked, I'll tell you." ”
At that time, the relationship between Xiangye and Mrs. was very good, the two of them were harmonious, and the fly in the ointment was that Mrs. had only gotten a girl after marrying Xiangye for many years. The old lady was so picky about her because she couldn't give birth to a son, and the lady felt that she was at a loss, and she never went back to her parents' house to cry, so she accepted the old lady's troubles, but fortunately, the prime minister was very protective of the lady at that time, and he also contradicted the old lady several times, and resolutely refused to accept a concubine. It didn't take long for the old lady to go to Yangzhou in a fit of rage. ”
Hearing this, Huo Shui'er was a little puzzled, why is Huo Xiang, who is as affectionate as his wife, a person with heavy desires now? Mama Gui noticed her puzzled gaze and motioned for her to listen, "It stands to reason that after the old lady leaves, the lady should be more prosperous this day, but the lady's body is getting weaker day by day. ”
Speaking of this, Mama Gui's eyes flowed with tears, "The doctors came batch after batch, and Mrs. Zhang also invited the imperial doctor in the palace to come and see, but they were all helpless, and the lady couldn't get out of bed at all, she was so thin that she didn't look like a person, she couldn't eat anything, and her hair fell out even more, and finally ...... As soon as the Zhang family had an accident, his wife vomited blood and died in bed. ”
Huo Shui'er said in a trance, "It turns out that my mother didn't leave because of an accident at my grandfather's house, but she has already begun to weaken?" Why I don't remember at all. ”
"The girl was still young at that time, and every time Madame saw you, she carefully hid her weak appearance and deliberately hid it from you, how did you find out?" Mama Gui wiped her tears and replied, "The old lady doesn't like Madame, and I don't like the girl very much because of this reason." After the death of the lady, the old lady only returned to the prime minister's mansion once in a few years. Most of the time they live in Yangzhou. ”
Huo Shui'er asked again, "Since my father loves my mother so much, why did he ...... after my mother died" People in the capital now, when they mention Huo Gang, they can't remember the Tanhualang who has a deep relationship with the Zhang family, they only say that he indulges in pleasure and is an extremely lustful person.
"Girl, why has Xiangye's temperament changed so much, Mama doesn't know." Mama Gui's eyes showed a look of determination, "But Mama is sure that the treatment of Mrs. Xiang is true, and the smiles in their eyes in those days are all sincere." ”
"Mama, do you know who hurt you back then?"
"The old lady's bracelet was lost, and it was found in the grandmother's room." Mama Gui also thinks it's ridiculous, she is in charge of the dowry for Mrs. Xian, and there is no greed for millions of taels flowing from her hands, let alone a hairpin of several hundred taels. But the old master had passed away, Huo Shui'er was still young, and no one was in charge of her affairs, so she was assigned to Zhuangzi.
Mama Gui smiled bitterly, "Girl, the old lady should have wanted the lady's dowry back then, and the master was in charge of keeping it for the girl." ”
Huo Shui'er had already determined at this moment that the old lady suddenly set off from Yangzhou to the capital, and she must have come badly, she muttered, "It turns out that there were so many details back then. "Zhang's was weak after the old lady went to Yangzhou, and Mama Gui was also driven away by the old lady, it's too coincidental, isn't it?
The wind outside suddenly became stronger, blowing all the windows open, and the peach cakes on the plate were no longer hot.
