Chapter 194 There is nowhere to sue
Maybe she was afraid of the old lady, Aunt Shen didn't dare to say more about Master Hao's stay in Wan Niang's room, but the breath in her heart couldn't be swallowed no matter what, and it almost made her sleep.
Mother Shen looked at Aunt Shen, who was standing and not sitting or frowning, and couldn't help but whisper in distress: "Madam, it's useless to be in a hurry, you have to be careful of your own body and bones, don't worry too much." ”
Aunt Shen was still pacing back and forth in the room, her willow eyebrows were quietly tightened, and there were already some wrinkles on her white jade-like face, revealing the fact that she was no longer young.
"How can I not be worried?" She said hatefully: "That woman, why is she fighting with me? Who does she think she is? I worked hard to support this big mansion and handle the affairs of the house diligently, am I just here to make her wedding clothes? ”
The flames of anger burned too hot, and she chattered, lingering in her footsteps.
Mother Shen looked a little worried, she had never seen Aunt Shen like this.
"Madam," Mother Shen finally made up her mind and walked to Aunt Shen's side, grabbed her arm, and stopped her from continuing to wander around the house, "How can you make her a wedding dress after so many years of hard work?" Think about it, the second young master is your son, but Wan Niang has been nothing, even if she can stay by the master's side now, so what? Could it be that she can raise another child at such an old age? Besides, even if she burned high incense all her life in her previous life, let her give birth to a child in this life, how could she catch up with the second young master? The old slave said something disrespectful, but she was afraid that her child would be born, but she would not be able to raise it. ”
Mother Shen almost said the last sentence in a gloomy tone.
Aunt Shen looked at Shen's mother in a daze, and her mind was carried away by anger as if she had been awakened.
Indeed, twelve years ago, she was able to let that woman leave Taihe County with nothing, so twelve years later, she has children and daughters and power, what is she afraid of her? Hum...... It's just a lowly concubine, how can it affect her?
Aunt Shen stroked her forehead with one hand, and finally sat down on the couch beside her.
Maybe it was just that it was difficult to accept this matter for a while, so her emotions were a little more impulsive.
Mother Shen glanced at Aunt Shen worriedly, poured her another cup of hot tea, and said softly, "Madam, let's have a cup of tea first." ”
Aunt Shen took the teacup, and took a sip without looking at it, but the tea was always warm on the stove, and it was very hot, how could she not be burned if she drank it in such a big gulp?
"Ah......" Aunt Shen screamed and threw the tea cup in her hand far away.
Mother Shen was startled, and when she saw that Aunt Shen was scalded, she went to the table in a panic to find cold water, but in this cold winter, how could there be cold water in the house?
"Yunzhi, go and pour a glass of cold water, Madame is burned." Mother Shen opened the door and said anxiously to Yun Zhi who was guarding outside.
Yun Zhi hurriedly poured a cup of cold water and sent it to Aunt Shen.
Aunt Shen sat crookedly on the couch, waved her hand, and did not take the cup. Although the tea just now was hot, it was not hot water that had just been boiled, but she didn't pay attention to it for a while, so it was scalded.
Seeing that Aunt Shen was fine, Shen's mother let Yunzhi go out again.
Looking at Aunt Shen's appearance, Mother Shen sighed and said, "Madam, she is just a person who is not worth mentioning, why do you take her to heart?" The old lady is just thinking about her for many years of service, so she just gives her face, how can she embarrass you for her? ”
What Mother Shen said is not unreasonable, no matter what, Aunt Shen's many years of credit are here, and she also added a son and a daughter to Master Hao, compared to Wan Niang, who only helped to fulfill her filial piety in front of the old lady, if there is really something, Master Hao will undoubtedly stand on Aunt Shen's side.
Aunt Shen frowned and sat on the couch, stroked her forehead with one hand, and listened to Shen's mother's words with a complicated expression.
Twelve years ago, she really didn't take Wan Niang to heart, in her eyes, Wan Niang couldn't fight her at all, and she was not qualified to fight her. She wanted Wan Niang to continue to stay in Hao Mansion, and Wan Niang could continue to stay; If she doesn't like Wanniang, she can let her leave Hao's mansion.
However, after so many years, maybe time has made her understand that she has done too many wrong things in the past, and now Wanniang has returned without any burden, and the old lady has supported her, and what about her? But there is so much to take into account.
Aunt Shen sighed lightly, reached out and rubbed the bridge of her nose, trying to find a solution.
She painstakingly sent away the women beside the master, but she didn't let Wan Niang come back and enjoy it!
Seeing that Aunt Shen was in an unhappy mood, Shen's mother was not happy, and she was also anxious for Aunt Shen.
For the old lady's proposal, Aunt Shen would not be stupid enough to refuse the old lady in person, otherwise Master Hao, who has always been filial piety, would definitely not give her a good look, then she would have lifted a stone to shoot herself in the foot, so when the family had dinner in the evening, Aunt Shen was still obedient and humble and busy serving the old lady vegetables, but she was much more diligent than Wan Niang, and Master Hao secretly nodded in approval.
Ding Yezi only thought that she was acting, and subconsciously felt that Aunt Shen should not be such a person.
Originally, among the big family, Ding Yezi was the most necessary to be diligent, but now that she is pregnant, she naturally enjoys special treatment, and no one will say anything about her. On the contrary, Hao Ling was worried that she would eat for two people by herself, and she would always uncontrollably pick up vegetables for her during a meal, and her bowl would be full of her, and she almost didn't even have a place to drop her chopsticks.
In the end, she couldn't eat anymore, so she quietly pinched him under the table to make him stop.
Because Master Hao spent last night in Wan Niang's room, he should go to Aunt Shen's room today. After the meal, Wan Niang went straight to help the old lady go back, and Aunt Shen kept following behind Master Hao with a virtuous look.
For the affairs of these elders, the juniors will not bother to care more, let alone know that the old lady has such an arrangement.
That night, Aunt Shen sat in the room aggrievedly and waited for Master Hao to enter the room.
Now that the end of the year is approaching, the new year is about to begin, there are a lot of things in terms of business cooperation, Master Hao and Hao Ling Hao Yu have been thinking about these things, how can they have the leisure time to care about Aunt Shen's emotions?
Therefore, after Master Hao finished washing, he went directly to the bed to rest, and he didn't say a few words to Aunt Shen.
Aunt Shen was even more jealous in her heart, and always felt that Master Hao must have been satisfied with Wan Niang, so she looked at her more and more unpleasantly, and didn't even say anything to her.
Although it was a harsh winter, the earth dragon in the house was burning, and people didn't feel a trace of cold.
Aunt Shen was wearing a middle coat and sat on the edge of the bed, hugging one of Master Hao's legs, and massaging it with skillful and moderate strength.
Master Hao was used to enjoying it, and he didn't think much about it, so he closed his eyes, hoping to fall asleep as soon as possible. Only when he has a good night's rest tonight will he have the energy to deal with business matters tomorrow. It's a pity that there are so many worries and too many things to think about that he can't sleep for a while.
"Master......" Aunt Shen saw that Master Hao didn't say a word to her, and called in a low voice.
Old Man Hao still closed his eyes, twisted his eyebrows, and responded in a slightly raised tone, "Huh? ”
Aunt Shen looked at Master Hao with an aggrieved expression, the old man in front of her didn't even look at her, she hated her so much that her teeth itched, if she didn't expect Master Hao to support her, she would like to put him to sleep in the study now, just like every time there was an unhappiness between the two of them before, she drove him out.
It's a pity, if she dares to kick Master Hao out again, Master Hao can go to Wan Niang's room to sleep, where would she dare to do that?
"Master, you don't care about me anymore." Aunt Shen said in a mournful tone.
Master Hao still didn't open his eyes and said, "What's wrong with you?" You also know that it's the end of the year, and there are a lot of things in the shop, where can I be busy? You can take care of the family affairs a little more. ”
"Master, can't you care about me?" Aunt Shen continued to pretend to be aggrieved.
Who would have thought that after so many years, she has always been used to having a strong temper, how could she be so easy to pretend to be wronged? If one is not careful, the strength in his hand will be heavy, and the old man Hao who pressed it screamed, almost alarming the maids who were waiting outside.
"Oops...... You're light, I'm still counting on two legs to run a little more. Master Hao finally opened his eyes and glanced at Aunt Shen with twisted eyebrows, "What do you look like?" What's wrong? Could it be that there is still someone in the house who can make you angry? ”
Master Hao finally noticed Aunt Shen's slightly red and swollen eyes, and also saw a grievance on her face that had not appeared once in a hundred years.
Aunt Shen relaxed the strength of her hand and continued to massage Master Hao with appropriate strength.
"Master, I know that you have always been the most filial, but you have never failed to listen to what the old lady said. I also know that Wan Niang has served by the old lady's side for many years, and she has won the heart of the old lady, and it is natural for the old lady to speak to her. But, sir, have you really forgotten how that woman framed me twelve years ago? Such a ruthless woman, how can you sleep next to her? ”
Aunt Shen tried her best to lower her voice, and said sadly, as if she was completely thinking about Master Hao.
Where did Master Hao want to get Aunt Shen's twists and turns? At the moment, he said bluntly: "That's it, where do I rest?" My mother just came back, I don't want to embarrass my mother now, Wan Niang's side, you can take care of it a little. ”
When Aunt Shen heard this, she almost couldn't breathe in one breath.
Well, when she sued this lawsuit, not only did she not get a little benefit, but she got such a sentence, how could she swallow this breath? She was about to get angry, and then remembered that now was not the time for her to get angry, so she had to swallow that sullen breath raw.
"Master, I'm also for your good, it's always inappropriate for such a person to be placed in the mansion. Think about it, she was able to use even the child in her womb back then, what else could she not do? If our house stirs her up again and becomes a joke in Taihe County, how can it be good? ”
Aunt Shen softened her tone and said quietly, looking completely for the sake of Hao's house.
If Master Hao hadn't reacted just now, then if he hadn't understood what Aunt Shen meant now, then he had really lived in vain for so many years.
Master Hao was in a depressed mood, and being disturbed by Aunt Shen like this suddenly made him even more unhappy.
"Xiu'er, I know that I have been letting you take care of housekeeping for so many years, and it has really worked hard for you. However, after so many years, Wanniang is no longer young more than ten years ago, and you have two children to support you, what are you worried about? She has served her mother for so many years, and she has no credit and hard work, so don't worry about her more, just let it go. ”
Aunt Shen choked, what Master Hao said was reasonable, no matter what, Wanniang could not pose any threat to her, she just looked at Wanniang unhappy.
Aunt Shen didn't say a word, and after massaging Master Hao for a while, she also went to bed.
It seems that it is useless to tell the master directly about this matter, and it has to be discussed in the long run.
The next day, Ding Yezi woke up early, and there was nothing to do, so he planned to go to the South Courtyard to say goodbye to the old lady, and it was also the younger generation's filial piety in front of the elders.
But she said that since she was going to the old lady's courtyard, she was bound to pass by Aunt Shen's courtyard gate, so after saying goodbye to the old lady, she went to visit Aunt Shen by the way. After all, although she was unhappy with Aunt Shen, some necessary etiquette was still necessary.
"Madam, the young lady is here." Xiao Ju opened the curtain on Ding Page, and raised her voice to report to Aunt Shen.
Ding Page walked into the room, half respectfully blessed Aunt Shen and said goodbye. When she looked up at Aunt Shen, she found that Aunt Shen's face was really ugly, and the dark circles under her eyes were so heavy that she couldn't even hide the rouge.
You must know that Aunt Shen has always been a person who pays great attention to appearance, but now she has dark circles under her eyes, which shows how exhausted she has been in the past two days.
Ding Yezi remained silent, pretending not to see it, and sat down on the chair next to him with a light smile, and said: "Auntie, it's all my fault, I just took over the affairs of the inner courtyard for more than a month, and I have to bother you again, it's really hard for you." ”
Aunt Shen looked at the sad look just now, and said indifferently: "It's okay, it's all a family, don't say those kind words." Besides, you are pregnant now, you should recuperate, you don't need to worry about the affairs in the house, you can take care of yourself to recuperate and have a safe baby. ”
Ding Page smiled lightly and said, "Auntie, don't worry, the page knows everything." After a pause, she said again: "Auntie, is there anything worrying in the house recently?" ”
Aunt Shen's expression was grim, her eyebrows were slightly raised, and she looked at Ding Page fixedly, "The house is still the same as always, what's the trouble?" It's just a trivial matter. ”
Aunt Shen's reaction has already shown that there is indeed a problem, but she just doesn't want her to know.
Ding Yezi was noncommittal, nor did he expose the ugliness of Aunt Shen's face, but said with a light smile: "Also, at the end of the year, there are indeed a lot of things in the house, and the miscellaneous things add up to a lot of trouble, but it makes my aunt bother." ”
Aunt Shen pretended to be indifferent and took a sip of the tea cup on the side. But I don't know what's going on, today's tea brewing is very unsuitable for her habits, if it weren't for Ding Page's presence, she would have spit it out right now. Looking at Ding Yezi's look of watching a good show, Aunt Shen swallowed the tea alive.
