Chapter 238: Enter the Door
Concubine Liao was also extremely helpless, when she was young, she and her brother were ignorant, and her mother didn't let her and her brother contact the eldest brother. The eldest brother was very closely watched by his grandmother and did not have a chance to get along with them.
After the grandmother passed away due to illness, the mother took care of the eldest brother's food, clothing, housing and transportation very dedicatedly on the surface, but in private, she drove the subordinates who had been waiting by the eldest brother's side for many years out of the house for various reasons, and also picked a few demons-demons-rao-rao-rao around the elder brother, and the maids who were usually not very peaceful in the brother's yard and sent them to the eldest brother.
Soon, the eldest brother's reputation for being lustful spread. Half a year after the grandmother's death, the eldest brother suddenly fell ill mysteriously, and all kinds of symptoms were very similar to his father's original wife, who died young.
She accidentally overhears her father and mother arguing, and the father asks her mother why she is still unwilling to let go of the child and has to take the child's life because he has tolerated her killing his eldest son. The mother did not answer the father's question, but only sneered a few times.
She was stunned, and even more so shocked by the horrible laughter of her mother, who was always gentle and loving in front of her and her brother, that she stumbled back to her room. Without saying a word, she threw herself on her bed, and hid under the quilt, and the maids in her room were unwilling to come out no matter how much they persuaded her.
The next day, the eldest brother was borrowed by his uncle for treatment, and she also fell seriously ill.
Concubine Liao knew the meaning of Hu's words, Hu repeatedly contradicted Xiao Jin, and she was able to save herself from the angry Xiao Jin's men, just because of the prestige of Hu's mother's Liguo Mansion behind him. In the past, Xiao Jin was very fond of her, and the reason was only because the Yongchang Earl's Mansion fully supported Xiao Jin at that time.
She is in a very different situation from the Hu family, the Hu family is the eldest daughter in the family, and it is her parents who are now in charge of the Liguo Mansion.
But although she is also the daughter of the Yongchang Earl's Mansion, but now the Yongchang Earl's Mansion has a new owner. In order to protect the widows of his mother and brother, his father could only take the initiative to take his mother away from the imperial capital to return to his hometown for the elderly.
It's not that she didn't show favor to her eldest brother, but the eldest brother politely refused.
Xiao Jin dared to raise a sword to kill her last time, because she knew that even if she died in the county palace, her eldest brother might not stand up for her.
"I know your concerns, since some methods don't work, hurry up and change them." Hu Shi hated it and took the initiative to think of a way for her. "It's okay if your eldest brother doesn't want to see you, he is Yongchangbo and his own court, not staying in the house every day. Isn't your sister-in-law at home? Go talk to her. ”
"My sister-in-law is doing housework at home, but my sister-in-law is my eldest brother's cousin, so she must know something about the old things in our house." Concubine Liao said in embarrassment. "She may not be impatient to see me."
"I had a few encounters with your sister-in-law when I was not married, she has a weak personality and a kind personality. Regardless of the old things in the house for the time being, you have never been the one who did evil. Hu said. The next time you go back to the Earl's Mansion in Yongchang, remember to bring your sister with you. They are all daughters with children, and if you take your sister with you, she will definitely come out to see you. If you see it once, you will see you for the second time, and after a long time, it is with your sister, you can save a little fireworks in front of her. When the time comes, there is someone who can help you blow the wind on your pillow, and Yongchangbo may not be really cold. Even if he won't take the initiative to stand up for you in the future, he shouldn't stand idly by when you're in trouble. ”
"Thank you, princess, for the point." Concubine Liao listened carefully to Hu's idea, and in an instant, she was enlightened and understood.
"Okay, now that you know, there is nothing else to take care of in the house tomorrow." Hu Shi waved his hand and said indifferently. "Let's take my sister back tomorrow, it's your mother's house anyway."
"But what if the king of the county asks?" Since she almost lost her life under Xiao Jin's sword last time, Concubine Liao couldn't help but tremble when she saw Xiao Jin, as long as she thought of him. "What do you want to say about the concubine?"
"You are a concubine in the house, not a prisoner in the house, just take your child back to your mother's house, what does he care. Besides, I'm the princess of the county, and you women in the backyard are all under my control, as long as I nod and let you go out. Hu Shi remembered her husband, who had been in the same bed for a long time, and couldn't help but lift the corners of his lips and sneered. Besides, the king of the county is now a good time for the spring breeze to be proud, where can he take care of us people. ”
"Yes, the concubine has written it down." Concubine Liao got Hu's words, and she was completely relieved. "The concubine will take her sister back early tomorrow morning."
"Well, alright, let's all come in." Seeing that Concubine Liao had been appeased, the Hu family called all the people outside in. "Brothers and sisters have been playing outside for a long time, hurry up and ask the nurse to take them back to rest for a while, see if the clothes are sweaty-wet, and then prepare some tea and snacks."
As soon as Hu Shi gave the order, the courtyard and outside suddenly became busy.
The four children who had been playing outside for a long time were led back by their respective nurses, and after the last incident, Concubine Liao's sister had always been put in her room by Concubine Liao after she took her back, and as soon as the sister entered the house, she broke free from the nurse's hand and threw herself on Concubine Liao's knees.
Concubine Liao felt that the coldness of her body was warmed by her sister's warm little body, and she pulled her sister to carefully feed her a few mouthfuls of water before letting the nurse take her sister down and change her sweaty-wet underwear.
"When you return to your parents' house tomorrow, I am also going to go to Princess Zhaoyue's Mansion again." Hu's own three children pestered her for a long time before she asked the nurse to take them all down. "After listening to your words, I feel uneasy about the princess. Let's go back and see if the princess is healed before I can barely feel at ease. ”
"Do you want to accompany the princess of the county to go over with you?" Concubine Liao asked about Hu.
"No need, it's enough for me to go alone." Hu still has some plans in his heart. "I still have to work hard on the affairs in the house, you keep an eye on it for me, and in the future, you and the people in the yard will have to be vigilant, you can't not know nothing, and you will be dragged down the fire pit by the slut."
The more Hu Shi thought about it, the more angry she became, she only sprinkled all the unfillable anger in her heart on Xiao Jin, calling him a slut, and she couldn't wait to bite off a piece of his flesh at this time.
She hates him because she is not satisfied, she has the ability to do that idea, but she has no self-knowledge at all, so she has to think about what she can't get.
"The princess of the county is angry." Seeing the appearance of Hu Shi secretly gritting his teeth, Concubine Liao hurriedly persuaded. "The king of the county has already done it, and it is useless to say more now, so I can only wait and see the future."
"You're right." Hu said. "If he dies by himself, if he dares to implicate my child, I will be the first to fight with him."
On the second day, Concubine Liao took her sister out of King Jinjun and went to the Earl's Mansion of Yongchang. In the past, because of my sister's frailty, at this age, I can count the number of times I have left the gate of the county king's mansion on one hand.
Fortunately, after his sister's accident, Hu invited a famous doctor for his sister's treatment, regardless of his previous suspicions, and his sister's physical condition has improved greatly.
For the first time, my sister followed Concubine Liao out in a carriage, and the children felt fresh and interesting when they looked at everything, and they were nestled in Concubine Liao's arms all the way, chirping and asking questions to Concubine Liao.
"When I saw your aunt when I came back, my sister should remember to say hello to my aunt, you know?" Concubine Liao hugged her sister's body and said. "You are meeting your aunt for the first time, so you must be polite."
"Mother, why haven't you seen my aunt and grandmother come to see me before? My grandmother hasn't come to see me for a long time, so where has my grandmother gone? "My sister didn't know anything and asked innocently." Where is the mother, mother, grandmother? ”
"Didn't Mother tell you? My grandfather and grandmother took your little cousin back to my hometown, which is far, far away from us, and it may not be convenient for my grandmother to come and see you for a while. Concubine Liao hesitated for a moment before she said to her sister. When you get to the place, don't mention your grandfather and grandmother, okay? ”
"Why?" Sister asked puzzled.
"Because my aunt misses them too, your aunt is a very good person, you know when you see them." Concubine Liao had to explain it to her sister like this. "Sister, you don't want your aunt to be sad, do you?"
"Uh-huh, I wrote it down." The sister thought carefully and nodded in agreement. "Don't mention your grandmother and grandfather in front of your aunt, so as not to make your aunt sad."
The carriage stopped in front of the Earl's Mansion in Yongchang, and Concubine Liao asked the maid to come forward to report the news, and she was worried in her heart, holding her sister and waiting for the news in the carriage.
Concubine Liao, who had been closed several times, was anxiously waiting for news.
The result was really as Hu expected, and soon Concubine Liao's maid returned to the carriage, saying that the new Mrs. Yongchangbo learned that Concubine Liao had come with her daughters and sent someone to invite them into the mansion.
The new Mrs. Yongchangbo and Concubine Liao are of the same age, and they also had several encounters in their early years.
"Concubine Liao didn't say hello before she came, and the house didn't make any preparations, so she had to hastily prepare some things to entertain." Mrs. Yongchangbo was a young woman with a beautiful face and a gentle smile, and when she saw Concubine Liao and her sister who came to the door, she immediately took the initiative to get up and come forward and said. "Since I returned to the imperial capital with my uncle, I haven't seen Concubine Side, Concubine Side has been okay lately?"
"Sister-in-law doesn't have to be polite." Concubine Liao's grade may not be as high as that of Mrs. Yongchangbo, and she came to make friends on purpose, so she was even more polite when she spoke. "It's that I haven't come to bother my brother and sister-in-law, but now that the princess of the county has given me some errands, I can also take the time to come over and talk to my sister-in-law."
"Oh, that's right, it's okay." Mrs. Yongchangbo said with a smile.
