4. I don't want to be the head of the house (2)

Not to mention that Hao Xiangxiang ignored the etiquette and escaped from Mrs. Hao's house, how was she closely chased by Prince Wen Chengyu all the way, let's see how the injury on Aunt Fei's side was.

Aunt Fei suffered internal injuries, coughed nonstop, and couldn't sleep all night.

What worries her the most is her husband Fei Dutou and the third lady Hao Xiangxiang, and I don't know if the two of them are safe.

Judging by the situation at that time, they should have gone to Mrs. Tai's house, where there were several maids such as Ginkgo biloba, all of whom were seven-grade masters, and Mrs. Tai was even more unfathomable, and it must be safer than in the village.

However, after her husband sent the third lady over, she didn't see her back, which really made Aunt Fei suspenseful, what happened? While recovering herself, Aunt Fei couldn't help but worry. Won't there be any more danger?

Aunt Fei thought about it all night, and finally heard the heavy footsteps of her husband Fei Dutou, and walked towards the room where she was resting.

When they met again, the two people held hands and looked at each other, and they had a sense of life and death.

Fei Dutou took a look at his wife and found that although the injury was serious, it did not hurt the vital point, as long as he recuperated well, he would be fine after a month.

Fei Dutou fed his wife medicine and let her rest well, but where could Aunt Fei sleep? I had to lean on the head of the bed and listen to my husband talk about the third lady Hao Xiangxiang.

Fei Du couldn't help it, so he had to add a thick pillow for his wife to make her lie more comfortable.

Fei Dutou cut the wick, and the room lit up. He drank a sip of herbal tea on the table, moistened his throat, sat next to Aunt Fei, and talked one by one.

“……”

“……”

“……”

"Immediately recruit relatives for Xiangxiang? This is not an easy task, in a hurry, I am afraid that I will not be able to recruit good relatives. Although Aunt Fei was sore and weak, she immediately expressed her objections.

Fei Dutou said:

"What if you don't recruit relatives? The head of the family is critically ill, the two little sons have died one after another, the eldest lady and the second lady have been married, and only the third lady is likely to inherit the position of the head of the family. ”

Fei Dutou said a few simple words, and said the embarrassing situation of the famous Hao family, and a rumor is spreading on the rivers and lakes - the Hao family is about to run out.

Hey, Aunt Fei stopped talking, of course she understood that the Hao family had fallen into a desperate situation and had no choice, otherwise, the ugly girl Hao Xiangxiang would not be able to have high hopes.

However, Aunt Fei has always regarded Hao Xiangxiang as her daughter, and she is even more worried about Hao Xiangxiang's future happiness. If you recruit relatives for Miss Three now, then those who come to ask for marriage must be interested in the huge family business of the Hao family, and it is impossible to treat Miss Three sincerely. After Mrs. Tai passed away, who would support the third lady, and how could she be a family? In any case, Miss Three will not be happy.

"Those who come to ask for marriage must be drifters, and they won't treat Miss San seriously." Aunt Fei expressed her worries.

Fei Dutou nodded, lowered his voice, and said: "The third lady must hurry up to recruit relatives and prop up the lintel of the big house, and it is best to grasp the one man and half woman to ensure that the incense of the big house continues." Otherwise, the second and third rooms of the Hao family will probably have to take the position of the head of the family. Mrs. Tai is so wise, can she think of it? The most important thing now is to keep the position of the head of the family first. ”

Regarding the suspicions and speculations of the Hao family's two bedrooms and three bedrooms, what Fei Dutou said was not groundless. Mrs. Hao, Mrs. Fei Dutou, and Mrs. Fei all understood that who did the assassination in the wheat field yesterday did it, and there was no need to investigate it at all.

The Hao family in Maple Leaf Fort has a total of three rooms. For more than 100 years, the big house has occupied the position of the head of the family. However, in the past nearly 20 years, the two rooms and three rooms have prospered, and the big house has no male birth......

Therefore, it is rumored everywhere in the rivers and lakes: the Hao family is about to run out.

Aunt Fei listened to her husband's analysis and calmed down.

She recalled the first time she saw Miss Three. At that time, when Hao Xiangxiang was just one year old, she was held by the nurse, swarthy, dry and thin, and sent to the manor. The words of the heirloom of the nurse: I am relieved that this child will be handed over to you.

In fact, Aunt Fei took a look at this poor baby, and immediately understood what the head of the family meant, this female doll is too ugly, and there will be no good fruit to eat at home.

As the head of the manor, Aunt Fei is well-informed and knows that the rich and noble families are the most cold. When the female doll of the rich and noble family is born, she has to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with the teacher, and she has to train the etiquette of dealing with people according to the rules of the palace, and the female red cooking skills in the boudoir are not too bad. All of this has only one purpose, in order to find a good in-law and a lintel for the mother's family.

Since you want to find a good in-law, appearance is very important, at least you can see it. Like Hao Xiangxiang, who is surprisingly ugly, who will marry? Such a woman, raised at home, will only be made fun of, and even affect the marriage of her sisters and sisters.

Aunt Fei pitied the third lady from the bottom of her heart, and never disliked her, but really felt sorry for her.

According to the instructions of the head of the family, the third lady only needs to be fed and clothed, and she doesn't need to learn anything.

Fortunately, later, Mrs. Tai moved to the manor and changed the fate of the third lady. At that time, Miss San was just three years old. Mrs. Tai seemed to have special pity for this child, and immediately instructed Fei Dutou and Aunt Fei: teach the third lady martial arts well, as well as the farm work in the field, and when she grows up, let the third lady be in charge of the affairs of the manor.

Fei Dutou and Aunt Fei got this instruction and understood Mrs. Tai's hard work, it is difficult for the third lady to marry in this life, and I am afraid that she can only stay in her mother's house for the rest of her life. After a hundred years of her parents, if the third lady does not have some life skills, I am afraid that she will be bullied by her mother's family, and at that time, it will be difficult to have a foothold in her mother's family.

Recalling the events of that year, Aunt Fei couldn't help but sigh. The complexion is heavy.

"Where could you have imagined that the Hao family could have happened so many things in the past few years?" Aunt Fei couldn't help but sigh.

Aunt Fei's worries are real, over the years, the third lady has been cultivated according to the head of the manor, and the two of them have no reservations about her, and they teach each other. Seeing that the third lady has grown up happily and healthily, her martial arts have long surpassed the five-grade masters, and it is no problem to go to the rivers and lakes to protect herself, and she has learned almost all the work in the manor, and she will be able to eat very well if she eats with her hands.

Over the years, the couple has been very optimistic and content.

Where do you want to get a sharp change in the situation, a sharp turn. Especially after the head of the family fell ill, Mrs. Tai secretly discussed with them many times, first, to protect the safety of the third lady, and never repeat the mistakes of the two little sons; second, to find a good gentleman for the third lady, teach her poetry and book etiquette, and prepare her for inheriting the position of the head of the family; Third, find a way to recruit a son-in-law for the third lady, and you can't let the Hao family's big house cut off the incense.

None of these things are easy!

The first thing naturally falls on their husband and wife, and they are duty-bound.

The second thing is not easy, no matter how clever a gentleman is, it is difficult to raise a wild child in a village into a lady in the hall and a kitchen, it is too difficult!

The third thing is simply an impossible task, unless the standard is greatly lowered, and the appearance and conduct of the man's family are not considered. But is this possible?

The couple is here babbling and talking, thinking about it repeatedly, and they are at a loss.

Fei Dutou comforted his wife who was lying at the head of the bed and said, "The old lady asked the head of the family to spread the news widely and recruit relatives for the third lady, and sooner or later there will always be a result." ”

Aunt Fei nodded, thought about it, and asked again: "How is the matter of finding a husband for the third lady?" I didn't listen to the old lady's orders. ”

Fei Dutou shook his head: "The old lady has always been wise and decisive, and she has already made a plan in her heart. ”

"Also, we really can't help with this matter, so we have to listen to the old lady's arrangement, I hope God will have mercy and send a good teacher to the third lady."

As the couple talked, forgetting the time, a ray of light poured in from the window.

"Hey, Maple Leaf Castle has been going back and forth for hundreds of miles, you have run so far and you are tired, let's hurry up and rest." Aunt Fei stretched out her hand and took her husband's hand. Fei Dutou nodded, and was about to blow out the lamp and lie down.

Suddenly, Hao Xiangxiang's hurried knock on the door came from outside the window:

"Master, open the door, I'm being hunted down!"

As soon as Fei Du heard this, he immediately broke out of the window, and saw Hao Xiangxiang in the courtyard trembling, he didn't care to ask, he slapped his palm and slapped the man behind her.

"Master, beat him up, it's him, bully me!"

Hao Xiangxiang has finally found a backer!
