Chapter 59: Mending the Knife
Mama Tang took a step, lowered her eyebrows, and replied: "Madame has lifted the slave maid, this is the duty of the slave maid, and I dare not hold it up." ”
Speaking of this, Mama Tang raised her head, glanced at Xia Yanqing, withdrew her gaze, and continued: "It's just that the slave maid feels that before she learns the rules, the second grandmother still shouldn't go out." ”
Xia Yanqing pursed his lips and knew that it was like this. As for it, didn't you just listen to her advice and went to the blacksmith shop, but you couldn't bear it for a while, and you sued right away.
Mrs. Liu's heart suddenly suddenly, and she hurriedly asked, "Oh? But what happened? "With a stereotypical upbringing like Mama Tang to follow, can't you still control the Xia family?
Mama Tang drooped her eyelids and said without pain or itching: "When the second grandmother came out of the bookstore, she insisted on going to the blacksmith shop. At that time, the uncle of the Shao family passed by with people, and when he looked at the second grandmother, he stopped for a few breaths. Even so, it didn't make the second grandmother change her mind. In the end, I went to the blacksmith shop. ”
When Mama Tang said about Shao Yi, Mrs. Liu and Yuan sat up straight in an instant.
Yuan frowned and asked, "Didn't you say before, are you all ready?" Didn't you wear a hat? As he spoke, his eyes swept towards Xia Yanqing.
She had the same idea as Shao Yi's little girl, thinking that Shao Yi wanted to trouble Xia Yanqing because of the fight with Xia Zitang.
Xia Yanqing's eyes also widened, feeling inexplicable.
Have it? How did she not know what happened to Shao? Mama Tang didn't tell her either!
Facing the burning gaze of Yuan and Mrs. Liu, Mama Tang looked ashamed, leaned over and said, "The second grandmother is fully dressed and has a hat. The slave didn't know how the master recognized the second grandmother, didn't he recognize the carriage in our house? ”
Yuan's brows tightened even tighter, "It shouldn't be." Uncle said that the capital is rich and noble, and our foundation in the capital is still shallow, and there is nothing to show off. Therefore, the carriage is not marked. ”
She looked at Xia Yanqing, still frowning, "Didn't you tell your younger brothers and sisters that after you go out, you should always ask Mama Tang's opinion?" When you say you want to buy a book, why do you think of going to a blacksmith shop? I didn't even know how to avoid it. Have you forgotten that not long ago, he had a conflict with your maternal brother? ”
Mama Tang made up another knife in a timely manner: "If the slave maid is not mistaken, before the second grandmother traveled, she had plans to go to the blacksmith shop, and she was also optimistic about the place."
Our carriage didn't stop all the way, and we didn't ask anyone, but went straight to the blacksmith's shop. The slave didn't understand why the second grandmother didn't tell the lady and the eldest grandmother before she went to such a noisy place. ”
Xia Yanqing's face instantly darkened a little.
This Mama Tang, why has she been trained in espionage or what? She is just shopping, and she is being stared at like this, and she has to analyze her words and actions.
Especially Mama Tang's last two sentences, what does she not understand? She clearly told Mrs. Liu and Yuan that she deliberately concealed the truth from the principal of the family in order to go to the blacksmith shop.
In the room, except for Mama Tang and Xia Yanqing, the other four people all looked at Xia Yanqing, although the emotions in their eyes were different, they were very unified, and there were all doubts and condemnations in them.
Xia Yanqing flashed her big eyes, looked at the people in the room one by one, looked innocent, and said: "My daughter-in-law thought that going to a blacksmith shop was nothing, so I didn't mention it to my mother and sister-in-law." ”
Seeing that everyone was still looking calm, Mama Tang had even more sarcasm in her eyes, and continued to explain: "The daughter-in-law's former master's family, the young lady of the Shen landlord's family, has been to the blacksmith shop several times, and every time she takes her daughter-in-law with her. She also had a quarrel with the blacksmith and asked her daughter-in-law to open the stall of the blacksmith shop. ”
When Yuan heard this, he almost vomited blood.
Mr. Bai also said that she has a talent for reading, and as soon as something happens, she can remember the scene when she was a girl in the countryside, and dare to use it as a reference for her current behavior.
Does she really not know the difference between a noblewoman in the capital and the daughter of a rich man in a small village?
Yuan doesn't believe it!
She narrowed her eyes and asked slowly, "Since you know how to report to the bookstore to buy books, why did you skip the blacksmith shop instead?" ”
Several people looked at Xia Yanqing, yes, reading and buying books, that is an elegant thing, she can come to Mrs. Liu to report solemnly, in a noisy place like a blacksmith shop, she didn't mention it.
yes, why?
Facing everyone's doubts, Xia Yanqing was very surprised, and it was also very natural.
She said, "How can that be the same? The blacksmith's shop was outside, in full view of the public. I go there and just make a few small things, and there will be no criticism no matter what.
The bookstore is not the same, it is in the house, out of everyone's sight, if it is maliciously guessed, then it is not clear, of course, you have to say it to your mother and sister-in-law in advance. ”
There was silence in the room of the "......".
Yuan's wanted to scold her mother at this moment, but Xia's obviously bastard logic actually made her explain it so reasonably.
The others looked at Xia Yanqing, and they were all stunned.
Mama Tang's face was even more gloomy. Today's trip, no matter how you look at it, the place Xia really wants to go to is the blacksmith shop, and buying books is just an excuse for her to apply to go out.
If she bluntly said that she would go to the blacksmith shop, Mrs. Liu and the Yuan family would definitely not agree.
She is deceiving her elders and deceiving her sister-in-law who is in charge of family affairs. This kind of behavior is enough to show that her heart is not right, and in the days to come, she will lose everyone's trust and face the scrutiny of the Wang family.
However, such an inexplicable situation was actually resolved by her with such a reasonable explanation. In this way, even if she is wrong, it is an unintentional fault that is not sensible, and her inner character is fine.
Mama Tang sighed secretly, she still underestimated Xia's. Where does this woman look like a cowardly village girl who grew up in the countryside and didn't know anything? It is clearly a cunning person who is articulate and clever.
