Chapter 7 Mother's Kindness and Filial Piety
"This is not just for my cousin, this is related to the face of the Chengguo Mansion. As long as the mother mentions it in front of the grandmother, the grandmother is naturally willing to bother. ”
Lin Hao knew that although this old lady Lin preferred the second room, she also wanted to be face-saving in the end, not to mention that Lin Xuan still had Lin Xuan in her hands and snatched the handle of the people's girl outside, and it was up to her whether Mrs. Lin wanted to or not.
What's more, will she abandon this house full of glory and wealth for the sake of this two-room concubine?
Mother Lin was skeptical, and Lin Hao added, "Mother only needs to remember to mention Lin Xuan's matter tactfully when she mentions this matter to grandmother, and grandmother will naturally inquire about it." ”
Mother Lin's brows suddenly relaxed, as if she understood the truth, "Sure enough, it's my good daughter, my mother understands." ”
However, the next day the old lady fell ill.
The illness came fiercely, he was directly bedridden, and he didn't see anyone for three or four days, and Lin Shaohai, who was anxious, was like an ant on a hot pot, and he panicked and sought medical treatment everywhere.
Mother Lin also visited frequently, but she was turned away by the old lady three or four times.
Lin Zhen knew that she collided with her yesterday, so she naturally wouldn't let go of this matter easily, how could she force herself to comply without this means?
There is no way to know if my grandmother is really sick, but she must have planted the root of the disease in her heart.
Heart disease naturally requires heart medicine.
Two days later, Lin Zhen saw the opportunity to visit with Lin Shaohai, and Zhou Mei, the second room, was taking care of her attentively, and her narrow and shrewd eyes softened a lot when she saw Lin Shaohai.
"Grandmother is better?" Lin Zhen stood in front of the bed, and saw that the old lady's face was sallow, and she couldn't help but laugh in her heart.
The girl said! Just a few days ago, the girl left, and the old lady fell ill, but it was a coincidence. Zhou Mei handed Lin Shaohai a cup of tea, and unintentionally mentioned it.
Lin Shaohai's face turned cold, and he said to Lin Zhen, "Did you collide with your grandmother that day?" ”
Lin Zhen's eyes flashed, and her expression was free, "Daddy, my daughter just heard the rumors circulating in the market, and she specially said that she came to listen to her grandmother, but she didn't know that her grandmother was sick, could it be because of the rumors, do you want your daughter to tell her father again?" ”
"What rumors?"
Lin Shaohai frowned and asked.
Zhou Mei's face changed, and she suddenly felt out of breath.
The old lady who was sleepy on the bed suddenly coughed violently, and before everyone could come forward, she opened her eyes leisurely.
The cloudy eyes stared at Lin Hao firmly, "Come, come and help Grandmother." ”
"Yes." Lin Zhen walked forward from the good stream, and Mrs. Lin grabbed Lin Hao's arm, but Lin Zhen was forced to sit her up steadily.
"Mother, are you better?"
Lin Shaohai breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly cared for him.
"It's okay, what can happen to my wife, it's all your fuss." Mrs. Lin let out a breath of turbidity and sighed, "It's just an old problem, and now I'll be fine when I wake up." ”
The arm was tightly pulled by the old lady, Lin Zhen looked at her with a smile, "Grandmother is well, and my grandson is at ease, but Erniang said that I collided with my grandmother a few days ago, which really made my grandson ......."
"Where is it for your sake?" Mrs. Lin became more and more kind, "It's all her broken mouth, and it's just a matter of breaking down." ”
Broken mouth? A hint of ridicule slipped through Lin Hao's eyes, and he quickly hid it.
Sure enough, Lin Shaohai flashed a trace of anger and reprimanded Zhou Mei a few words, "You, it's a lot of words." ”
Zhou Mei opened and closed her mouth, but she couldn't speak.
There was a stalk in his throat, and he couldn't swallow it or spit it out, which was really uncomfortable.
Unconsciously looked at the old lady, only to find that her eyes were covered with frost.
Zhou Mei was startled, closed her mouth in time, her eyes were filled with mist, and she bent down to stand beside the bed.
"Okay, don't blame her, she also cares." Old Lady Lin glanced at Zhou Mei and didn't care.
"Thank you, old lady." Zhou Mei bent down and saluted, and then she barely pulled a smile.
Soon the scene of mother's love and filial piety was restored in the room, and it was very happy.
In this way, the old lady's illness gradually improved.
Seven days later, the dowry of the Wei Mansion was sent to the mansion, and Wang Jinrong's marriage into the Wei Mansion was a certainty.
"Damn it!"
A curse suddenly erupted from the ornate inner chamber, followed by the crisp sound of broken porcelain.
"Second lady, stop your anger."
The maids in a room had already knelt on the ground.
"Get out!"
Unable to suppress his anger, his delicate face was already distorted.
"Yes, Second Lady."
All the maids bent down and retreated, leaving only Qiu Ju alone.
When there were no idle people in the inner room, she got up and came to Zhou Mei's side, and said in a low voice, "Madam, if this reaches the ears of the eldest lady, I don't know how to be proud?" ”
Sure enough, the corners of Zhou Meisheng's angry eyes twitched slightly, but her hands stopped moving.
After Qiu Ju saw this, she carefully took the colored glazed porcelain bottle in Zhou Mei's hand and put it back in its place, "Isn't it true that Madame is so angry that it is in line with the eldest lady's wishes?" What's more, what evidence does she have about Childe's matter, it's just a matter of chasing the wind and shadows, and it can't be true. It's cheap, the down-and-out relative of the eldest lady, and she also asked the lord to come forward to marry in person. ”
"That's a good family matter, the son of a mere five-grade official is also worthy of the lord to come forward in person, it really disgraces the face of our Chengguo Mansion." Zhou Mei snorted coldly, took the tea that Qiu Ju had blown out angrily, took a sip, and barely suppressed the anger in her heart.
"Isn't it?" Qiu Ju concentrated on pinching it for Zhou Mei.
"It's just that I didn't expect it to be the old lady who opened this mouth, and that woman always had a way, and she actually made an idea to hit the old lady." The brightly colored Danko slammed and snapped.
This is exactly what makes Zhou Mei angry, today the old lady actually reprimanded her as the eldest lady, telling her where to put her face!
"Madam, you are the old lady's niece after all, the old lady's heart has always been with you, but she is a little angry because of the matter of the second son." Qiu Ju followed the guidance, carefully looked at Zhou Mei's face, and saw that her narrow eyes flashed with a fine light.
"The second son hasn't returned home yet? You send someone to inquire, remember to follow quietly, but don't alarm others. Zhou Mei looked uncertain, and only after a moment did she make up her mind that she would never allow a folk girl to hinder Xuan'er's future.
"Yes, slave and maid will do it."
Qiu Ju naturally knew the meaning of Zhou Mei's words, and she shuddered, the second lady has never been merciful, and that woman is afraid that she will ......
"Knock, knock."
The knock on the door was not loud in the quiet alley, but it was sure and clear.
"Squeak~"
The door, which had not moved for a long time, opened a thin slit, and a vigilant gaze poked out from inside, looking at the person who knocked on the door, "Who are you?" ”
"I am the maidservant of the Chengguo Mansion, and I was instructed by the second son to send something to the lady." Ming Huan raised the eight-treasure food box in his hand.
