Mother Wu's eyes flashed, and she couldn't help but look at Mother Tao.

"Oh?" Mrs. Tai asked curiously, "The gossip of the three girls?" Tell me, what did you say? ”

Mother Tao glanced at Mother Wu as if unintentionally, and then said to Mrs. Tai with a smile: "The maids and ladies in the house are all talking about it, saying that after the third lady recovers from her illness, it is as if she is a different person...... Don't hide it from Mrs. Tai, the old slave also thinks that the third lady today is really different from before......

Mrs. Tai showed a look of recollection.

"Mother Wu, you feel this way too, right?" Mother Tao looked at Mother Wu with a smile and said, "The third lady has been sick, and her temperament seems to have changed completely......"

"Is that what Mother Tao thinks? I don't think so. Mother Wu shook her head slowly, and said with a smile: "The third miss is now talking and laughing, compared to the previous old Cheng Zheng, for a while, it makes people feel that the third lady's temperament has changed a little, but it's just ...... Mrs. Tai, do you remember what Miss Three looked like when she was a child, when Miss Three was two or three years old...... That little group of people smiled when they saw everyone...... The road is still unsteady, but I always think of coming to Xiyuan to ask Mrs. Tai for peace......"

When Wei Man was two or three years old, Wei Xiu and Wei Bai rarely stayed at home for more than a year, Mrs. Tai's mood was naturally very good, and Wei Man was beautiful at that time, not to mention, her mouth was very sweet, and the most sticky was Mrs. Tai, Xiyuan could always hear her softly calling for her grandmother to hug......

Recalling the comfortable days in her early years, Mrs. Tai's face was full of soft smiles.

Seeing this, Mother Wu then told a few interesting stories about the old marquis and Wei Bai, Mother Tao is a person who manages to look at Mrs. Tai's eyes, so she naturally talked about the happiness of the past, and for a while, the atmosphere in the room was very good.

Gossiped for a while.

Mrs. Tai seemed to be really tired, so she waved her hand to Tao's mother and said with a smile: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve night, and the whole family is waiting for you to go back for a reunion, so go back quickly......"

"Where can they be more important than talking to Mrs. Tai......" Tao's mother said busily.

Mrs. Tai smiled, as if she had suddenly thought of something, and said, "By the way," as she spoke, she casually took out a small brocade box from the dark compartment beside her.

"Take it." Mrs. Tai smiled and handed it to Tao's mother and said, "I will reward you." ”

"Oh, this, this has already given the reward money just now," Having said that, Mother Tao quickly took the brocade box and said to Mrs. Tai gratefully: "Old slave Mrs. Xie's reward." ”

"Okay, okay," Mrs. Tai waved her hand casually and urged: "Go back quickly, I have already seen Tao Gui's family standing under the porch waiting for you." ”

The smile on Tao's mother's face froze, and she hurriedly and solemnly argued: "That child is very stable on weekdays, this ...... Don't worry, Mrs., I will definitely teach her well when I go back......"

"You, really!" Mrs. Tai seemed to sigh helplessly, and said: "Tao Gui's family is also worried about you, with a good daughter-in-law like her, you should be happy......

Seeing that Mrs. Tai did not blame her daughter-in-law, Tao's mother put her mind at ease, thinking in her heart that she must remind her daughter-in-law to be more cautious when she goes back, and at the same time humbled herself a few words.

"Don't worry about the errand," Mrs. Tai instructed again, "Just think that I gave you a holiday, just go back to reunite with your family with peace of mind." ”

"What a way to do this!" Tao's mother hurriedly said: "If the old slave doesn't check it out with his own eyes, let alone go back to reunite, I'm afraid he won't be able to sleep steadily......"

"You, it's just a tired life, and there are a lot of maids and wives below......" Mrs. Tai taught Mother Tao a few words, changed her tone, and sighed: "After so many years, I am also thanks to you by my side......"

"Hey, Mrs. Tai must not say that," Mother Tao looked anxious and ashamed, and said: "Everything the old slave was given by Mrs. Tai, and she should have served Mrs. Tai wholeheartedly, where would she dare to take credit......

"Alright, alright," Mrs. Tai said with a smile, "You are an old man who has served me for decades, so I won't say anything superfluous...... Go back quickly, you don't have to come over tomorrow, and you can spend time with your grandson at home. ”

Speaking of her grandson, who had just turned two, Tao's mother had a happy smile on her face.

A few more words.

Mother Tao turned her head to look at Mother Wu, and said a little embarrassedly: "Then, I'll go back first, there will be Sister Lao by Mrs. Tai's side." ”

Mother Wu smiled and said, "This is also my duty, Mother Tao doesn't have to be like this." ”

……

At this time, there was a lot of laughter in the Shi'an Hall.

Wei Yu and Wei Zheng were taking a few Xiao Si to set off fireworks, Wei Yan didn't move, just stood close to guard against accidents, Wei Wei was a five-year-old child, running and jumping all over the yard excitedly.

The second master looked like a famous man and a great Confucian, and while holding his beautiful beard, he commanded the little maids standing next to him, and said, "...... Go tell the eldest young master to be careful and not to face people...... Hurry up and tell the third young master, don't get so close to those two firecrackers...... You go and talk to the second young master and let him stand farther away...... You and you, and you, a few of you, go and take care of the fourth young master......"

The second lady Cao, the five sisters of the Wei family, as well as the aunts, maids, and mothers-in-law all stood under the eaves and looked at the sky with great interest.

In the crackling splendor, Wei Man's gaze couldn't help but drift to Wei Yan, who was dressed in a blue brocade robe and stood in the middle of the courtyard.

Wei Yan's complexion is bronze, and his facial features are as sharp as a knife, and at this moment, he is slightly curling the corners of his mouth, staring at the colorful night sky with everyone.

Although Wei Yan didn't do anything, Wei Man just felt that Wei Yan had a little more momentum than Wei Yu, the courteous young master, and Wei Zheng, who had a face like a crown of jade.

Among the three young masters of Zhenguo Houfu, Wei Zheng's temperament should be the best one, he is not like the eldest young master Wei Yu who prides himself on being talented, proud, and not as indifferent as Wei Yan, in the courtyard, he discussed with Wei Yu about the placement of fireworks for a while, and discussed with Wei Yan which fireworks had a good effect, but Wei Yu and Wei Yan did not have a word of gossip.

Wei Man couldn't help but ponder.

The position of the prince of the Zhenguo Houfu will inevitably be produced between Wei Yan and Wei Zheng.

If, judging by personal ability, Wei Yan's military talent is obviously many times stronger than Wei Zheng, but it ...... Wei Man thought of the delicate relationship between the ancient generals and the emperor...... Since Wei Bai is already a general on the side of the town, it may not be a good thing that Wei Yan's ability is strong......

If, judging by personal charm, compared to the rarely spoken Wei Yan, Wei Zheng's temperament can be regarded as a long-sleeved dance, and today's Zhenguo Houfu should be more important than pioneering, perhaps, Wei Zheng is more suitable to ascend to the position of the prince, but ...... Wei Man thought of the rumored messy and corrupt private life, and she couldn't help but worry, with Wei Zheng's temperament, if he really became a town prince, then it would be very difficult to keep the family business......

Ay!

Wei Man let out a soft sigh of depression.

Crossing into the weak woman of the boudoir in ancient times, Wei Man knows very well that the only thing she can rely on is her mother's town and country, so she must have a good relationship with the future town and country, but ...... Wei Man looked at Wei Yan in the courtyard, and then at Wei Zheng who was instructing the little servant, who is it that will eventually become the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion?

Wei Man frowned, thinking to herself, otherwise, she would be ready to make friends with both sides...... However, Wei Yan and Wei Zheng are not stupid, if they are not careful, she may offend both sides......

"Three, three, Miss ......"

Wei Man was wandering away from the world when he suddenly heard a gentle voice behind him.

Wei Man looked back and saw an old woman in her fifties, with a very soft face, looking at her with a somewhat restrained smile.

"You ......"

The old woman in front of her had her hair combed neatly, wearing a half-worn dark red dress, although she looked a little shabby in her dress, but the charm revealed by her body was not something that a housekeeping mother could have.

For a while, Wei Man couldn't think of the identity of the person in front of him.

"Miss," Swift hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to Wei Man, "It's Aunt Luo from Kindness Hall." ”

Aunt Luo?

The concubine of the late old marquis Wei Xiu!

Oh yes!

Wei Man showed a sudden expression, she remembered that the old woman in front of her had saluted Mrs. Tai with Aunt Zhang not long ago.

"It turned out to be Aunt Luo's grandmother." Wei Man hurriedly made a junior salute, and said embarrassedly: "My memory is a little bad, Aunt Luo and Grandma don't blame ......"

"I can't do it, I can't do it...... Aunt Luo hurriedly avoided Wei Man's salute, and kept waving her hand and said: "This can't be done, can't be ......"

This......

Although she was born in a concubine's room, Aunt Luo's grandmother was too bold, and Wei Man remembered that when she had saluted Mother Tao, Mother Tao had carelessly avoided it......

Wei Man looked at Aunt Luo, who was panicked, in surprise, and glanced at Swift and Xia Lan, who were also puzzled.

Aunt Luo in front of her, although Wei Man didn't know her, she had heard her almost legendary gossip.

Back then, Mrs. Tai and the old marquis had been married for seven years, but there was only one daughter under their names, so Mrs. Tai made her aunt with the big girl Luo Shi and the personal big girl Zhang who had served Wei Xiu since she was a child.

Zhang's is Aunt Zhang's grandmother, the biological mother of Weijie, the second master of the house.

Luo's is the aunt and grandmother Luo in front of her who looks flustered and moves restrainedly.

The reason why Aunt Luo's gossip is legendary is because Aunt Luo's grandmother disappeared in the house shortly after she became Wei Xiu's aunt from the big girl, and for more than 30 years after that, Aunt Luo and Grandma were not heard from, but a month before Wei Xiu's death, she suddenly returned to Zhenguo Houfu.
