Chapter 151: The second aunt is trained
I don't know that it is not customary to have a separate kitchen in the courtyard, generally speaking, only the head of the family has such a privilege, but the situation in the Taishi Mansion is different now, as the head of the family, Lan Ting is not the highest elder, if he wants to make an exception, it will be a bit flamboyant, and Mrs. Peng will probably find a reason to refuse.
But there is indeed a kitchen in the garden, and even pots and pans are prepared, but there is a lack of charcoal ingredients, which shows that Uncle Zhao, who is keen on blistering cooking skills, really has the idea of making an exception, and plans to have free time in the future to cook and drum up food in the courtyard, Chun Gui thought that she would open her mouth to do this, first, he could indeed return a diet that was more in line with his appetite during the preparation of the Lanting exam, and as long as the old lady was persuaded to agree to her request to make an exception, in the eyes of many servants, the status of the eldest grandmother was even more unprovoked. It was not in vain that Lan Ting showed such a flamboyant show of affection for two days in a row, but as a result, she, the beneficiary, was passive and slacked off to enjoy the results.
Lazy and lazy, but when dealing with his own "peak", Chungui deeply believes that he should never be hanging, and there is a saying that is still right, what Uncle Zhao needs is someone who advances and retreats with him, not a burden that will only increase the burden.
Therefore, Chun Gui has secretly chosen words and sentences, planning to use his three-inch tongue to meet Mrs. Peng's reason that she can't make an exception, how do you know that Mrs. Peng actually agreed after a short period of silence: "Originally, there was no small kitchen in the old lady's courtyard, and the younger generations should not make an exception, but Brother Ting is different after all, and he is indeed a little picky about his diet, and now he is preparing for the exam, which is the most important time, Brother Ting's daughter-in-law can think about Brother Ting'er, don't I, the elder, support it?" In this way, Brother Ting's daughter-in-law made a list of what she needed, and I said hello to the treasury and allocated the needs according to the list. ”
Chun Gui hurriedly thanked him, and said in his heart that Mrs. Peng was really a master of seeing the wind and steering the rudder, no matter how dissatisfied she was with Lan Ting's position as the head of the family in private, she could do nothing on her face...... It's just that he didn't defend his own son's elbow and turned out, betraying his own mother cleanly.
It's just that out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw that the old lady's expression seemed to be a little dissatisfied, and she couldn't help but "chuckle" in her heart.
Could it be that there is a deviation in anticipation, and the old lady is the one who least wants Lan Ting to make an exception? No, after all, Lan Ting is her eldest grandson, just for a small kitchen, how can the old lady care about such trivial things.
"Just do what your second aunt said, get ready quickly, but when you are ready to eat, don't forget to send some to my old wife and a few aunts, although the chef invited at home is also good, people are inevitably greedy for freshness, and since Chun'er is sure to satisfy Brother Ting'er's taste, she must be really capable." The old lady turned to a smiling face, grabbed Chungui's hand and ravaged it: "Don't feel sorry not to go, there is no kitchen in my yard, first, I don't like oil smoke, I am afraid that it will smoke the flowers and plants planted in the yard, and the servants and maids in the courtyard are not good at cooking, and it is not as good as the food sent by the big kitchen, so why bother." ”
The third lady and the fourth lady are both daughters-in-law, and they don't compete in these things, especially the fourth lady is still full of interest, I don't know if she also wants to use the small kitchen of the garden to show her skills, or just plan to rub off on the occasional luck, before the fourth lady can say her thoughts, the old lady suddenly changed her expression.
"The second daughter-in-law is now in charge of the house, but what are the difficulties?"
This is a bit unprecedented
After not the meaning of the store, it is like falling into the sky and stilting very strangely, and because of the old lady's rare solemn face, starting from Mrs. Peng, a string of daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law all stood up one by one, regardless of whether they have anything to do with themselves or not, they must make a posture of listening to the training, looking at the nose and nose, and the atmosphere of talking and laughing suddenly changes.
"Don't you think there's anything wrong with that?" The old lady sat upright as if she didn't notice the change in the atmosphere, she repeated a sentence that Mrs. Peng almost replied with, and laughed: "How many gossips have spread to the garden, into the ears of my old woman, I thought you had scruples in your heart, and you didn't know how to deal with it for a while, how?" Could it be that you, the person in charge of affairs, have never heard a word, and are still unaware of the rights and wrongs that have been born in your family? ”
Hearing this, Chun Gui determined why the old lady's evil fire was born to say gossip in the Taishi's mansion, and the theme center must be aimed at her, the grandmother who has just entered the house, this is the follow-up effect of Cao's mother, Herou's mother and daughter's operation, but Chungui thought that it would be Mrs. Peng's hair, and he didn't expect the old lady, things seem to be a little difficult to do, she miscalculated the situation, and also underestimated the opponent.
He also said that Mrs. Peng seemed to have hesitated for a short time before she said: "Of course, the concubine can't be silent, but after inquiry, the servants are nothing more than chasing after the wind and shadows, and Brother Ting's daughter-in-law just warned Herou a few words, and Cao's mother thought that she felt sorry for her goddaughter, and she argued a few words for her, and it was not a big deal......
"And said it wasn't a big deal!" The old lady slapped on the kang table, and the daughters-in-law below were stunned.
Don't say that the spring returns, even Mrs. Peng, who has been marrying into the door for the longest time, has never seen the old lady so powerful, but only the third lady was shocked by this sound, and her eyes showed a little understanding, but she was covered by the eyelids and was not noticed by others.
The most confused was Mrs. Peng, thinking to herself that the old lady obviously didn't look like she was going to turn her face when she was going to pursue Gu's face, but how did this fire suddenly burn? Could it be that he secretly reached some agreement with Cao's mother and the Zhu family? But the Gu family's current backer is not just the Shen family, seeing Lan Ting's posture of defending her like this, how could she change her mind because of the instigation of a nursing mother? Cao's mother and the Zhu family don't have such a heavy weight.
"Brother Ting's daughter-in-law admonished his subordinates in the garden, and when he turned his head, it spread up and down the house, and a group of servants and slaves secretly chewed his teeth with my eldest grandson and daughter-in-law of Zhao's Xuanzhuotang, slanderous slander and jealousy, and filthy slander and defilement, you are in charge of the housework of the inner house and say that it is not a big deal? Is it a big deal to connive at these slaves to ride on the head of their masters and show off their might? ”
Mrs. Peng: ......
Spring Return: ......
The old lady's evil fire turned out to be aimed at the second aunt!
When Chungui retired from the Hesitant Garden, he still didn't figure out what evil was in the old lady, let alone Mrs. Peng, when he walked to his own courtyard, he almost didn't let the tears slip out of his red eyes, and he trembled and walked for a while, and he couldn't stand the faintness in front of him, only to feel that his chest hurt and his little feet hurt, so he found a stone pier and sat down under the shade of a tree, his chest rose and fell violently, and he finally couldn't help crying like a little daughter-in-law.
"What's the matter, old lady? Even if he saw that Brother Ting and Gu's love were in love, and he restrained his wife's thoughts to delay first, where did it come to this point? Brother Ting is nothing more than greedy for freshness, and he was confused by Gu's beauty for a while
What's not like this, how long can this be done? Maybe in less than two years, the eyeballs will become rotten stones, although they will not be abandoned, they are just decorations. After all, everyone gets along in harmony, it is nothing more than an expedient measure, The old lady is guilty of protecting the Gu family like this? ”
The more Mrs. Peng spoke, the more sad and indignant she became: "In my opinion, the Cao family and the mother and daughter of the Rou family are smearing the Gu family everywhere, maybe the gossip will reach the ears of Lan Ting, although they will not listen to these statements, and they will not punish the nurse for the sake of the Gu family, and when the husband and wife make trouble in the future, maybe these statements will take root and sprout, and when the Gu family loses the favor of Lan Ting, the old lady will be able to ruin the Shen family's plan if she asks for a good concubine, so why should the rumors be pursued at this time, let the people below chew their teeth, The Gu family wants to quarrel with Lan Ting's nurse, and it is also a strategy to see how Lan Ting deals with it first. ”
The servant woman beside her couldn't figure out what the old lady was thinking, so she only came up with an idea: "Or ...... Madame asked Mama Su first? ”
"I'm in a hurry, it's time to talk to Mama Su."
On the other side, the third lady and the fourth lady returned together, and the fourth lady chattered and couldn't stop talking: "I have never seen the old lady make such a big fire, let alone the second sister-in-law, so that the people below really talk about Brother Ting's daughter-in-law like this?" Why didn't I hear a word? If that's the case, these Diao slaves are too hateful, I look at Brother Ting's daughter-in-law regardless of appearance or temperament, sister-in-law is really planning for Brother Ting'er this time, and found him a daughter-in-law made in heaven, the fan she embroidered for me, I haven't seen it anywhere else, and the color matching is also good, I am reluctant to take it out and use it. It's no wonder that even the old lady can turn around, and she doesn't care about Lan Ting's marriage being decided by her sister-in-law. I looked at my second sister-in-law's face today and looked like I couldn't hang it, so let's go talk to her in the next day. ”
The third lady looked at her and sighed long: "You, you are also a mother, why are you still so innocent and romantic?" ”
"What does the third sister-in-law mean by this?" The fourth lady was still ignorant.
"Where did the two of us interfere in the matter of the second sister-in-law? No matter how angry the old lady is with her, she is also the old lady's daughter-in-law, and besides, what is the ......grievance she suffered?" the third lady stopped her mouth in time when she said this, and glanced at the concubine: "The third master and the fourth uncle are compatriots of the same mother, so the two of us are closer to each other, you don't know the sorrow of the world, and I don't want to tell you more about those troubles, but if you believe me, just listen to me, Brother Ting's daughter-in-law has a lot of contacts with you, but you have to stay away from the second sister-in-law, so she can be happy, angry and sad, and you don't believe a word of what she says." ”
The fourth lady was puzzled, but she didn't ask, but only hugged the third lady's arm tighter: "The concubine also told me to listen to the third sister-in-law, of course I listened, speaking of which, we haven't been to the garden for a few days, why don't we go to see the concubine together next day?" It's better to shout to Brother Ting's daughter-in-law to go with her, my mother-in-law hasn't seen her yet! ”
"Let's go, don't bother Brother Ting's daughter-in-law these days, there are still a lot of troubles in her yard, and then we called her to her mother-in-law, so that the old lady knows...... I'm afraid that the old lady will have a lot of love for her brother's daughter-in-law. ”
Chungui didn't know that the fourth aunt planned to ask her to go to the garden, and as soon as she returned to the courtyard, she set up a small kitchen, but before she could make an eyebrow, she was taught a lesson by Cao's mother, who heard the news.
