Chapter 147:-for-tat
The conscience of heaven and earth, Lin Zuiliu couldn't remember such a relative in the corner of the world, and naturally he never mentioned it to Liao Luan.
Maybe Liao Luan remembered it for her, or maybe it was unintentional at all, anyway, since her second aunt accepted this feeling, it seems a little strange no matter how she explains it now.
Let's do it first.
Thinking about it like this, Lin Zuiliu raised a little smile on his face, and said very humbly, "It's all what this concubine should do, the second aunt doesn't have to mind too much, cousin, he works hard by himself, and the prince can naturally appoint him with confidence." ”
She is so modest and polite, and she did not become unseen because she was in a high position, and she gained the favor of Lin Gao's family even more.
Aunt Lin's maiden name is Gao, and now she is called Lin Gao after she gets married.
However, if she said this unintentionally, her aunt would be unhappy over there.
At the beginning, they begged Lin Zuiliu and Liao Luan to arrange things for Lin Zhiyou, but now her second aunt didn't say anything, and the king of Zhennan arranged things to do, which was simply slapping her in the face of the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion.
All of a sudden, Mrs. Dingyuan's face became a little unpleasant.
Lin Gao's family looked very enthusiastic, compared to Lin Zuiliu's nominal mother, Mrs. Dingyuan Hou was more like an elder, and even Lin Zuiliu was a little unbearable for a while.
She looked at the woman who had been pulling her to speak, and she didn't know how to speak, when Cui He, who came with her, blocked Lin Zuiliu without a trace.
Then he looked at everyone expressionlessly and said, "The princess is also a little tired from the journey, and now she needs to go back to the room to rest and rest, and the next days to stay are not short, and she is not in a hurry." ”
Cui He is the maid of Zhennan Wangfu, full of body and magnificent, it is difficult for everyone to have any bold thoughts to reprimand her, and they all nodded and took her directly to the backyard by Cui He, and went to Juliuyuan, where she used to live.
To be honest, Lin Zuiliu was not valued by his family before, the yard was bare without flowers and plants, and the decoration in the house was a little shabby, but fortunately, it was clean and no one bothered him.
After a busy morning, he was only free now, and there was no one chirping in his ears, and Lin Zuiliu's mood immediately improved a lot.
The room had been carefully cleaned up, and the quilt had been replaced with new incense, although it was not what she always smelled, but it was not bad.
She had no image, lying on the bed on all fours, and Cui He, who was packing up and putting things around, saw it, and patted Lin Zuiliu's thigh with hatred and steel, and said
"My little princess, this realm is no better than the palace now, we have to sit and lie down, but don't do it again?"
Lin Zuiliu also knew Cui He's concerns in her heart, so she couldn't, so she had to sit up and lean on the bedside to watch her go back and forth, "Don't be busy, come and sit for a while, anyway, the eldest lady has arranged other maids, and when the time comes, just arrange for them to clean up?" ”
Although she was very suspicious that the maids arranged by Mrs. Dingyuan Marquis all came to watch her, she didn't care about it.
Anyway, she doesn't have anything to grasp, let alone in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, everything has to be done carefully, the maids she arranged can't come in, and Lin Zuiliu has nothing to worry about.
In this case, it is better to rest when you can rest, and give all the work to others.
However, although Lin Zuiliu didn't care, Cui He was very displeased, and when he heard Lin Zuiliu mention the few maids who were not good at their hands and feet, he subconsciously frowned, "It's better for the slaves and maids to clean up by themselves, those individuals are not good at work, and the slaves and maids are not compatible." ”
Cui He really didn't say this because she was hypocritical.
She is a very orderly person who cleans up things, and her work is also very neat, and she can't do anything in winter on weekdays, and she has to teach them by hand.
So when she heard her say this, Lin Zuiliu stopped persuading her, and only waited for her to pack up her things, so she pulled Cui He out of the yard directly, and pulled a little girl and asked, "Is Master Hou in the yard?" ”
The little guy heard that Princess Zhennan was back, and now he saw a gorgeously dressed and gorgeous-looking woman asking him, so he hurriedly nodded and replied, "Go back...... Back to the princess, here you are. ”
Marquis Dingyuan is naturally in the mansion, not only that, but now he is not in good health and is sick in bed, so even if Liao Luan comes, he can't get up to greet him outside the gate.
At this time, Mrs. Dingyuan Hou was sitting next to his bed, and began to mumble while feeding him medicine.
"I don't know if you didn't go out today, don't mention what the concubine has become, the second brother and sister, she looks like a hostess than me, and she won't let go of us if she pulls us drunk."
"Hmph, I didn't see how much she liked this girl, but now that she is a princess, she has begun to flatter her before and after the saddle, what a thing."
Since he got sick, Dingyuan Hou couldn't even avoid his wife's whining, so he could only lean on the bed, and he couldn't walk, so he listened passively there.
Listening to the annoyance of the short ink in her inkblot family, she will open her mouth to respond with two sentences, "Hey, isn't it just a matter of an aunt who loves her niece, don't think about it so much, give me the medicine quickly, drink it directly, this medicine is bitter, and it is grinding to drink one bite at a time." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pick up the medicine bowl, but this not salty and indifferent appearance directly ignited the temper of Mrs. Dingyuanhou, she stared at Dingyuanhou tightly, and said sharply
"As far as you think less every day, your precious daughter, you don't allow us to talk about her, what about others? I'm in a hurry to find something to do for a cousin, and I don't say that I don't care about his brother-in-law, and it's not a kiss, I can't count on her, and you're so cowardly. ”
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately ignited the Marquis of Dingyuan, and he immediately raised his eyebrows and angry eyes, he had been the Marquis of Dingyuan for so many years, and the momentum on his body was also unusual, and he glared at Mrs. Dingyuan Marquis and opened his mouth to reprimand
"Nonsense! Ah Liu, didn't she speak to Zhiyou? Look at the virtue that your son has made you accustomed to, and if you don't learn it well every day, what good position do you expect to be arranged! ”
His voice was extremely stern, and Mrs. Dingyuan Marquis immediately began to splash and roll when she heard this, threw the medicine bowl in her hand to the ground, and said it with a scolding on her lips
"Ah, you say me, you say me now, I'm dead, I've done this and that for this Hou Mansion for so many years, my son will teach me, and now that you're like this, you're starting to hate me as a bad wife, I'm just dead."
She naturally didn't want to die here, but Dingyuanhou was an indecisive person, and he had always been good at making bitter meat tricks for him, and sure enough, when she was so wronged, Dingyuanhou immediately felt a little guilty.
stumbling and saying, "I don't think so, you ......"
The two were arguing, and a small guy suddenly ran in outside the door, it was the scholar next to Dingyuan Hou, who walked outside the screen, listening to the voices of the two, neither advancing nor retreating.
In the end, the Marquis of Dingyuan cleared his throat and said, "If there is anything, just say it quickly, and it will be a matter of strength." ”
"Master Hou, the princess is here, saying that she came to see how you are?"
Since the last time he went to Zhennan Wangfu to beg Lin Zuiliu, his parents hadn't seen each other for a long time.
He felt guilty about Lin Zuiliu in his heart, he didn't dare to think about it before, but after he said it that time, he also wanted to compensate her, and he thought that his daughter would definitely kill him.
I didn't expect that as soon as I handed over the prayer post, I really came back.
He felt comforted, his face became a little better-looking, he waved his hand, and hurriedly said, "Then what are you doing in a daze, quickly welcome the third lady to me." ”
As he spoke, he had to go down to the ground to greet him.
Seeing this, Mrs. Dingyuan Marquis hurriedly grabbed him, and there was no good word on her lips, so she said, "What are you doing, you don't know what you are like, and you still want to go to the ground, and you will come in immediately." ”
As she spoke, Lin Zuiliu had already entered the door. She listened to what the two of them said, and she couldn't help sneering while being moved that Dingyuan Hou could speak for her.
"Auntie is also there? Yo, what's wrong with this place, such a big puddle of medicine. ”
When Mrs. Dingyuan Hou heard her ask, she immediately greeted her with a smile, and couldn't help but say coquettishly, "Hey, what else to say, it's not your father, he's sick, his hands are shaking so badly that he can't even hold the medicine bowl, and he will drop it when he says it." ”
Lin Zuiliu almost didn't laugh out loud, and looked at Cui He behind him slightly, Cui He was also full of smiles, and he knew that he was not good and lowered his head slightly to hide himself.
She cleared her throat, and pretentiously covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and then said, "So that's the case, I thought it was my aunt and my father who quarreled?" The husband and wife have no overnight feud, and the father is not in good health now, so the eldest mother can be considerate, but don't be like the father. ”
As he spoke, Mrs. Yuanhou opened her mouth to explain, and continued, "Oh, not only my father, but also me, my eldest mother also knows that this concubine has not had a decent mother since she was a child, so she is not very sensible when she is so old, you must be able to understand." ”
Lin Zuiliu watched Mrs. Dingyuan's face getting worse and worse, and her heart was extremely happy, and then she heard her say, "That...... The two of you talk first, and the eldest mother will find someone to clean up the things, and then go to cook a bowl of medicine for Hou Ye. ”
said that he left in a hurry and left in embarrassment.
As soon as the talent left, Lin Zuiliu couldn't control the smile on his face, and helped Cui He to laugh with a smile.
Dingyuan Hou also knew that this girl had a bad relationship with her aunt, but she already owed her a debt in her heart, and now she was not angry when she heard her smile without image, so she just smiled helplessly and shook her head.
"You girl, why are you so weird."
Because of the change in his view of Dingyuan Hou's whole person, Lin Zuiliu was also happy to talk to him now, and sat on the side with his chin tilted forward two steps, and then spoke, "Where are you doing my business, it's not that the eldest lady is too angry." ”
