Chapter 4 Just showing weakness, who wouldn't?
An Yu thought about how to talk to these two people, and could only say slowly: "I can't wait to draw a black blue under my eyes, so that the old lady and Mrs. can pity me for being robbed of my fiancΓ© by the fourth girl, and I used fat powder and rouge, and my complexion is good, how can I make the old lady and Mrs. hurt me?" β
Bixia nodded and put the fat powder away.
An Yu wore a light blue dress, and she also wore a veil as she did yesterday, because she was still sick, she was helped to the old lady's house by Bixia Biguo.
The old lady's house is on the west side of the inner courtyard and the atrium, and it is called Wanshou Hall.
An Yu came early, and when she arrived in the courtyard of Wanshoutang, she looked into the main hall and saw a white-haired old woman sitting on a high seat in the room, and a spiritual old mother standing next to her, and four teenage girls standing on the left and right.
The old lady of the Guogong Mansion is from the county lord, the identity of the clan, the title is Yanning, and after getting married, she also follows the rules of the palace every day, and gets up at three o'clock every day.
An Yu was helped into the main hall by the maid, and asked for peace, and the lord of Yanning raised his hand: "You guys quickly help the three girls up." β
Bixia helped An Yu to sit aside, and the county lord of Yanning looked at An Yu and sighed: "I heard that you were very sick yesterday, and you must not be well today, why don't you rest in the house to recuperate?" β
An Yu lowered her head, her voice was not loud, and she was aggrieved: "Although I am sick, I am very aggrieved in my heart, and I can only get better if I see my grandmother." β
The county lord of Yanning naturally knew what An Yu was wronged about, so he could only shake his head and say: "This is the way things in this world are, although it has always been said that it is yours, but if the fate is not enough, it will not work." β
As soon as the county lord of Yanning finished speaking, he heard someone laughing outside the door: "I just heard the old lady educating her granddaughter, and it was also a coincidence, so I have to keep it in my heart." β
It was none other than the grandmother who had seen An Yu yesterday, the grandmother's maiden name was Zhang, and she was married to the eldest son in the mansion, called An Jue, and everyone in the mansion called her Grandma Jue.
After Grandma Jue came in, the county lord of Yanning smiled and said, "You are already my daughter-in-law, and it is useless to listen to a hundred more sentences." β
An Yu got up and saluted Grandma Jue: "Sister-in-law is fine." β
Grandma Jue smiled and helped An Yu back to her seat, and walked to the lord of Yanning: "The old lady is naturally good at teaching the truth, but my sister's life is hard, if it weren't for the old lady's heart, I am afraid that this girl will die in this mansion." β
The county lord of Yanning sighed: "Hugh wants to talk nonsense, such a lord's family, he can't let the children in the family have an accident, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than a quarrel between sisters, as long as it can be mediated, it will definitely be safe in the future."
Speaking of this, the county lord of Yanning looked at An Yu: "Girl, come here." β
An Yu got up, and Bixia behind helped An Yu to the Lord of Yanning.
The lord of Yanning said: "The Lin family and your father said that it was you, and it should be you, but the Lin family went back on their word and oppressed people with power, but we hate that our mansion only has face, no lining, but it is just relying on a title, so I can only respond to their request, but such a person who takes the girls' reputation and marriage contract seriously is not a good family, and you don't have to be too pity." β
An Yu never thought that this old lady would be so reasonable, and she was very moved in her heart, and she wanted to open her mouth to tell her feelings, but she heard the old mother next to the county lord of Yanning laugh and said, "The fourth girl is here, why don't you come in?" It's windy outside, don't freeze the girl. β
After An Wan came in, An Yu not only deliberately retreated, but also lowered her head, looking very pitiful.
Therefore, after An Wan asked the county lord of Yanning, she didn't sit down, nor did she walk in front of the county lord of Yanning to join in the fun, she only lowered her head and choked up: "I just heard my grandmother's words outside, and I feel sad, the third sister because I have suffered such an insult, I hate to die and apologize." β
An Fei, who hung her head and pretended to be pitiful, pouted, took the juanzi and put it to her mouth and coughed, and the cough seemed to be as if she could cough out her heart in the eyes of others.
Grandma Jue calmed An Yu on the side, turned her head and said to An Wan: "Since you know that the third girl is uncomfortable, the old lady has only coaxed her with a sentence or two, why did she mention it again as soon as she came in?" β
An Yu put Juanzi down, stopped coughing, and her voice sounded soft and weak: "I know that the fourth sister feels sorry for me as a sister, so when I was sick yesterday, I went to my wife's door and knelt down to beg a doctor, and my sister must have begged for mercy from my wife." β
An Wan, who was wiping her tears, looked up at An Yu, and didn't know what to say for a while, and at this time, another well-dressed woman came in to greet the old lady.
Grandma Jue smiled: "Mrs. got up early today. β
Mrs. is the wife of the grandfather of the country, her maiden name is Kang, and she is called Mrs. Kang outside.
Mrs. Kang listened to Grandma Jue's words, smiled, and looked at An Yu: "Fortunately, I got up early, otherwise I don't know that there are still people behind my back who say that I, the housewife, treat my concubine harshly." β
The county lord of Yanning, who was sitting on the right seat, lost a smile on his face, and turned his head to look at An Yu: "Girl, you make it clear carefully, Mrs. Zhengfang's reputation for mistreating concubines is not a joke, and such a thing cannot be ambiguous." β
An Wan was afraid that her affairs would be exposed, so she stepped forward and said: "Grandmother doesn't have to worry, my wife is the most soft-hearted and kind talker, how can she treat her concubine harshly, it must be that the third sister was sick yesterday and had a bad memory." β
Mrs. Kang held the juanzi in her hand, and her smile was also kind: "I also want to ask the concubine, why did you kneel down first when you came to me?" Yesterday, the grandfather held a banquet to entertain the adults of the Hanlin Academy who compiled the history books with him, the eldest prince of the Song family came with his family, and his wife was talking to me in the house, fortunately, Yueying was smart enough to go out to see what was going on, otherwise my reputation for treating concubines harshly would spread throughout the capital. β
An Wan choked up and said: "Mrs., don't take it to heart, it must be that my sister is sick and confused, and I forgot that my wife is the most kind person." β
An Yu looked at An Wan's appearance, she was really angry, pretending to be pitiful and she was not the only one, so she cried: "Mrs. Mingjian, when I went to find my wife yesterday, Mother Liu in Mrs. Liu's house said nothing and refused to let me go in to see you, so I had to kneel down and beg for help!" β
The smile on Mrs. Kang's face was a little unbearable: "Do you mean that I connived at my subordinates to stop you at the door?" β
The county lord of Yanning looked at Mrs. Kang: "Maybe there is a slave in your room, go back and find out carefully, otherwise you will accidentally ruin your reputation, and the face of the entire Guogong Mansion will be dull." β
An Wan stood aside, she didn't dare to come out, she looked at An Yu, and the jade hands under the wide sleeves were tightly clasped together: "Madam, it must be that Mother Liu was drunk yesterday and made a mistake, go back and scold a few words, then Mother Liu will definitely change." β
The county lord of Yanning shook his head, and only said to Mrs. Kang: "Wan girl is young, she doesn't understand this, and if she is not strict in governance, she is most likely to cause trouble, the eldest daughter-in-law must go back to check and ask clearly, and send people away, we can't tolerate such a slave in a family like ours." β
An Wan lowered her head, with a hint of panic on her face, An Yu looked in her eyes and couldn't help laughing.
Mrs. Kang's face was gloomy, she lowered her head, and replied meekly: "What my mother-in-law said is that I will go back and inquire about the people in my courtyard." β
The county lord of Yanning nodded, Mrs. Kang turned around and walked towards the door, An Wan hurriedly saluted the lord of Yanning: "Grandmother, I'll go with my wife to have a look." β
After finishing speaking, he also followed Mrs. Kang out.
The county lord of Yanning looked back at An Yu and said, "Since you are unwell, this daily morning and dusk province will be avoided first, and you will come back when you are well." β
An Yufu saluted: "Thank you, grandmother." β
After returning from Wanshoutang, An Yu's illness was a little serious, and as soon as she arrived in the house, she lay down on the couch.
Bixia covered her with the quilt and said with a smile: "The girl is really amazing today, she didn't say anything, but let her wife know that there was a slave in her house." β
An Yu was dizzy, turned over, and said listlessly: "You ask the girl outside to pay attention, and see if the light solves that Mother Liu or that ...... in the end."
Bixia nodded in response: "I naturally know who the girl is talking about, but the fourth girl is the master after all, and even if the wife knows, it will only punish one or two, and it will not be a big deal." β
An Yu nodded and did not speak.
Bixia didn't bother her anymore, thinking that An Yu might be so sick that she didn't have any energy, so she hurriedly sent the girl below to decoction the medicine.
When An Yu was sleeping in a daze, Biguo woke her up, and after drinking a bowl of steaming medicine, she was a little more energetic, and hurriedly asked what happened to Mrs.
After hearing this, Bi Guo smiled happily: "Then Mother Liu heard that Mrs. Liu said that she was going to sell her to others, and immediately shook out the matter of the fourth girl buying her in the past and not letting us enter the door, and the wife had a seizure at that time, and asked the fourth girl to kneel in the ancestral hall, and this time it will still be in the ancestral hall." β
An Yu smiled after hearing this, and hurriedly asked, "What about Mother Liu?" β
Bi Guo wrinkled her nose and snorted: "I was sent to Zhuangzi by my wife to do rough work, but when the girl was in Wanshoutang today, she actually talked to the fourth girl for a few ways, which really scared me." β
An Yu looked at Biguo and smiled: "I'm just using her set to deal with her, what are you scared of?" β
Bixia walked in from behind the screen, looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "Girl, don't be busy dealing with anyone, it's a serious matter to get your body up now." β
An Yu shook her head: "You are wrong. β
Bixia was puzzled: "Where is it wrong?" β
An Yu lowered her head and let out a long sigh, the atmosphere in the whole room cooled down suddenly, and she said slowly: "The most important thing now is to prepare a table of food quickly." β
Bixia and Biguo laughed out loud after hearing this, Bixia went out to find the little girl to go to the kitchen to pass the meal, turned around and said to An Yu: "The girl is so blessed, it is just right to go to the kitchen to pass the meal, and when you arrive, you may be able to meet the people around your wife, and your wife's people will definitely let the kitchen cook more dishes for today's banquet to send to the girl." β
Biguo nodded with a smile, and took the dried medicine bowl in An Yu's hand: "Yes, although Mrs. and our girl are not very close, but Mrs. This mother-in-law did it to make everyone in the capital say kindness!" β
Bixia said again: "No, last time the fourth girl dropped the jade bowl rewarded by the eldest girl in the palace in front of the eyes of the wife, the two girls scolded twice, and the wife let it go lightly and didn't say anything, and asked the fourth girl if she was hurt." β
An Yu was not interested in the gestures of this housewife, and only asked, "Set up a banquet?" What kind of feast? β
