Chapter 140: The servant is strong and the master is weak
The pear vortex of Zhao's mother gradually filled.
She finally let go of Chungui's hand and sat up straight completely, her not so clear eyes didn't reveal much anger, but more like a daze with some mist, staring at Lan Ting a little overwhelmed.
"Grandmother still has objections?" Lan Ting frowned slightly, and it was more and more not like dealing with the elder, if it was a big rebellious analogy, it would be like the emperor asking the courtiers again.
Chungui thought: Very good, now the old lady's hatred has completely transferred to the uncle.
"I know you've just been married to Chun'er...... Mother Zhao finally spoke, her tone stiff, as if she was a little angry, but she was interrupted again before she finished speaking.
This time it was a servant woman standing next to her, Chungui saw that she should be the same age as the old lady, but her face was sad, and the wrinkles on the center of her eyebrows and lips were particularly profound, and she had nothing to do with the rich state at all.
This servant woman said this: "The old lady means that it is too tight to let the eldest grandmother recognize her relatives tomorrow, and at this time, it is already evening, and there will be a curfew soon, I am afraid that it is too late to notify the Anluhou Mansion and other relatives and friends, why not delay the uncle and choose another suitable day." ”
has a powerful look, but his tone is tactful, and his scheming is at least a few inches deeper than that of the old lady.
Chun Hui looked at the servant woman carefully, but he didn't see more depths.
I only heard that the old lady seemed to be a little relieved, and followed the words of the servant woman: "Isn't that what I said, Brother Ting only brought it up at this time, and the rest of the relatives and friends are just that, your uncle and the grandfather can't help but be notified, it's too late at this time." ”
After saying this, the old lady seemed to think that Lan Ting couldn't refute it, and became more and more relieved that the two pear vortices were concave a little bit, and bent her eyebrows to look at the spring return, as if to comfort her a few words, but this time the words were blocked back by Lan Ting before she could say anything.
"Since there is no banquet for confession, just for the bride to meet the elders of the clan, there is no need to abolish many of these rules. The relatives of the Hou Mansion and his grandfather's family, in the future, let the spring return know the rites one by one, and the grandson also knew that the time was set in a hurry, but seeing that the autumn was coming, when this matter was over, the grandson could also prepare for the exam with peace of mind, so the grandson had already gone to the second uncle's mansion earlier to explain the matter, and the second uncle also promised to inform the elders that he would come to Xuan Zhutang tomorrow. ”
He didn't come to discuss with the old lady at all, just to give a notice.
Chun Gui looked at Uncle Zhao's face with a calm and clear look, and sighed in his heart, this is really the majesty of the head of the family.
But the majestic Uncle Zhao, her grandmother doesn't have such confidence, Chun Gui looked at the old lady with a weak heart, and considered whether she should find an excuse to go out to "change clothes", so as not to be bruised by ammunition.
I heard the servant woman say, "Uncle still wants to take the exam this year? This is the old lady's thoughts, thinking that the uncle has gone to Fenzhou and delayed at this time, why should he delay it for a year and then consider entering the ...... That being the case, it seems that the old lady agreed to the uncle's invitation, no matter what, the most important thing is to take the test. ”
Such a high ladder was handed over to the old lady, and the old lady naturally had no reason not to go down, but the spring return passed a careful view
I saw that the old lady had accepted the servant's opinion without hesitation, and then, although her expression was inevitably a little depressed, she no longer revealed the slightest emotion of annoyance and indignation.
Chun Hui took this servant woman very seriously, and asked Lan Ting about the identity of this person afterwards.
"She is my grandmother's maid in marriage, and she is also a personal maid who grew up with my grandmother, and later married Su Liu, the son of our house, and was called Mama Su, why did Huihui pay special attention to her?" Lan Ting asked.
"I don't know if it's an illusion, I always feel that my grandmother seems to be acting in Mama Su's eyes."
Lan Ting glanced at Chun Gui again: "Not only is this not a delusion, but you should also praise your discernment." Grandmother has always relied on Mama Su, what about Mama Su, don't look at the second aunt who is now in charge of the affairs of the inner house, there are so many servants and maids from top to bottom, and most of the most convincing people are Mama Su. ”
"Grandmother is the chief of the Taishi Mansion, and even if Mama Su is a servant, she is naturally more decent than others."
In reality, the slave bullying incident with the support of the master mother is commonplace, and the theoretical basis is the so-called "around the elders, even if the cats and dogs have honor and dignity, and the younger generations can not be offended", and to say that this theoretical basis is absurd, then the beginning of the absurdity is the emperor who should not be absurd, because it is the laws and regulations formulated by the emperor, and the subjects of the world, regardless of the nobles, must be respectful of the ninety-five themselves, envoys, and internal officials. Even the pet animals raised by the utensils used by the emperor must be respectful, otherwise they will be regarded as disrespecting the emperor himself.
The utensils and pet animals were fine, but they did not understand the authority conferred on them by this decree, and those ministers took advantage of this article to make a big fuss, and could easily put a great charge of disrespect on the head of the person and sentence him to death.
And although it is said that the privilege of the Ninth Five-Year Plan is not something that anyone dares to compare, but because of the political guiding ideology such as "Respect for Relatives and Respect" and "Three Principles and Five Constants", monarchy and patriarchy allow subtle similarities, so this decree has been moved into filial piety, the difference is that even if a grandmother like Mama Su is beaten and scolded, it is still too guilty to die, and it is impossible to fall to the ground.
In fact, in the final analysis, it is not the house slave who is majestic, but the elder behind the house slave.
Just like the second lady Peng, if it wasn't for her royal ability, she was not as good as a servant, but she had to rely on the old lady's snort, so she even had to bend her waist to Mama Su.
Chun Hui didn't worry about Mama Su, because she didn't have to look up to the old lady's snort, her peak was Lord Fujun...... Even if she is in decay, according to her current age, it seems that she still has a lot of time to squander?
So when Lan Ting didn't say much about Mama Su, Chungui didn't hold this person to continue digging into the personnel of the Taishi Mansion, compared to the servant woman next to the grandmother, or Mrs. Peng, the justified aunt, made Chungui more nerve-wracking, I don't know how many guns and arrows the other party prepared.
She began to inquire about the eldest girl, Zhao Xi.
According to Mrs. Shen's indoctrination, there are only two girls in the younger generation of Taishi Mansion, and the second girl, Zhao Lanxin and Lan Ting, is the same mother, but since Miss Lanxin is the second, it means that there is still a big girl above her.
The eldest girl is the daughter of Second Uncle Zhao, and judging from the fact that her name is not based on the word "Lan", you can judge that she should be a concubine.
But in a family like Taishifu, the girl who came out of the house is also a coquettish guest at home, no matter what Mrs. Peng's true conduct is, at least on the surface, she doesn't dare
openly abused the concubine, and on the other hand, the girl at the time of the time, as a concubine, did not dare to disobey and disrespect her mother, and the possibility of mother-in-law and filial piety still existed greatly, in other words, the mother and daughter were very likely to stand in the same camp and unite with the outside world.
Chungui is a granddaughter-in-law, and she is still newly married, and she should get along more with the girls of her husband's family for a period of time.
The person who is a sister-in-law does not have the confidence to dictate to the sisters-in-law, all day in the house of the husband's house, there are many daughters-in-law who have to be cautious and careful, and the sister-in-law is a coquettish guest, so Chungui never hoped that the two sisters-in-law would take the initiative to slap her.
On the contrary, she must guard against the eldest girl and show goodwill, and such hypocritical and helpless operations.
In Mrs. Shen's mouth, the "grandmother party" is all flying and domineering, but in view of the deviation from the "party leader", Chungui's prediction of the eldest girl has also become uncertain, and it is necessary to reposition it through Lanting.
"The eldest sister has the best temperament, but she is too introverted, and she is silent most of the time, especially in front of the elders, she is more cautious and cautious, but her grandmother thinks that the eldest sister is quiet, but Mrs. dislikes such a temperament the most, so she is never close to the eldest sister."
This is Lan Ting's evaluation, and Chun Gui sighed.
She didn't say anything, Lan Ting had already guessed why she asked this question, and how distorted and untrue Mrs. Shen's evaluation of the eldest girl was.
It seems that the information provided by Mrs. Shen is really not very trustworthy.
Lan Ting added a few words about the situation of the eldest girl: "The biological mother of the eldest sister is Aunt Xiao, not a slave but a good concubine, or the second aunt invited the official media to promote it when the second uncle was ordained, but for many years, there is only one daughter of the eldest sister, but fortunately, the second aunt allowed the eldest sister to be raised under Aunt Xiao's name, and Aunt Xiao has always cared for the eldest sister." ”
This is not like a compliment to the second lady, but more like a compliment to Aunt Xiao, and the implication is that the temperament of the eldest girl is completely because of Aunt Xiao's meritorious education.
Through Mrs. Shen's indoctrination, I learned that there are two big sisters-in-law in the second room, Zhao Lantai in the second room and Zhao Lange in the fourth, and they must only be raised under the knees of the second lady of their own mother, so it seems that the temperament is very unpredictable? Although there is a difference between men and women, ordinary Chungui probably doesn't have much opportunity to interact with the two uncles in the next room, but they all live in the same inner courtyard, at least before the old lady "Long live the thousand autumns", since it is a family, naturally it is impossible to completely avoid face-to-face interactions.
So he completely put down his chopsticks, and said with a sad face: "I seem to be ...... Greedy for a while......"
I want to vomit after eating too much!
And the reason why there is such a situation that makes Chungui look for seams all over the place is annoyed, and I have to say that a little earlier, although it was said to be a "common meal" in the old lady's courtyard, Chungui thought of Guo's mother's reminder when she was in Fenzhou, so she didn't dare to sit at the same table with the old lady and Lan Ting, and obediently stood aside and waited for the role that her granddaughter-in-law should have. The old lady finally got a peaceful dinner, and Lan Ting also adhered to the rule of "eating without saying anything" in the hesitant courtyard, and did not give the privilege of returning to spring again, so that the family conflict that was about to break out was finally temporarily alleviated.
However, when Lan Ting walked out of the hesitant courtyard, he whispered close to Chungui's ear: "I haven't eaten much, I'll share dinner with Huihui when I go back." ”
It's good, and then the spring return will be over!
