Chapter 43: Counselling 3

"Huh!?" Jiang Chang'an's family looked at Xiao Jiang's mother in surprise, and said with a somewhat confused expression: "Does Xiao Jiang's mother still know my mother-in-law?" ”

"Mother Jiang is your mother-in-law!" Xiao Jiang's mother carefully looked Jiang Changan's house up and down a few times, and sighed in surprise: "Tut! I'll just say that your daughter-in-law doesn't look ordinary, it turns out that you are actually Jiang's mother's daughter-in-law. ”

Jiang Changan's thoughts at home changed, and he said with a smile: "My mother-in-law is accompanying Mrs. Tai in front, I should have recommended Xiao Jiang's mother to know her." ”

"Was Mother Jiang there just now?" Xiao Jiang's mother hurriedly stood on her tiptoes and looked at Mrs. Tai and her party, who had long since disappeared, with a painful look of regret on her face.

Mother Liu and Jiang Changan's family glanced at each other.

"Xiao Jiang's mother still knows about my cousin." Mother Liu affectionately grabbed Xiao Jiang's mother's arm, and said while walking forward slowly: "My cousin is the most kind person, I will introduce you in a while, and my cousin will definitely be good friends with you." ”

"Is Mother Jiang Sister Liu's cousin?" Xiao Jiang's mother looked back and forth at Mother Liu and Jiang Changan's family in surprise.

"Isn't it!" Jiang Chang'an's family explained: "Mother Liu and my mother-in-law are cousins. ”

"Hey!" Xiao Jiang's mother showed an envious look on her face, and sighed: "This is really good, everyone is a relative, we have a lot of contacts in our free time, and it is very convenient to do things, this is really good......"

Mrs. Jiang has two favored housekeepers by her side, the older one is called Da Jiang's mother, and the younger one is Xiao Jiang's mother.

Da Jiang's mother and Xiao Jiang's mother were originally cousins, both of them defected from Mrs. Jiang's hometown Shengyuan, and the two and Mrs. Jiang were also relatives who turned the corner, but after the two of them were together, and the family entered the Ningguo Marquis's Mansion, their encounters were different.

Back then, when Mrs. Jiang married Wen Qi and left Shengyuan, Dajiang's mother was already a ten-year-old girl, and she had some young friendship with Mrs. Jiang, but Xiaojiang's mother was just a five-year-old girl who didn't know anything at that time, and she didn't even talk to Mrs. Jiang at that time, so although the relationship between the two and Mrs. Jiang is indistinguishable, but because of the old love, Mrs. Jiang has always relied more on Mrs. Jiang.

Da Jiang's mother and Xiao Jiang's mother have not had much oil and water for Mrs. Jiang's family, and after so many years of open and secret fighting, the relationship between them is not bad or not.

Xiao Jiang's mother in private, I don't know how many times she complained about her own mother-in-law, she couldn't give birth to her a few years earlier, and also, after seeing the intertwined relatives in the house, she was particularly envious of the house-born slaves and maids, and she actually wanted to break into the circle of the house-born servants, but she always couldn't get in at the door.

Mother Liu's eyes flickered and observed Xiao Jiang's mother's expression, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook up a mocking smile.

"The Ningguo Hou Mansion and the Zhenguo Hou Mansion have been friends for several generations, the relationship between the masters is good, and the relationship between the people below us has always been good." Mother Liu took Xiao Jiang's mother's hand and said sincerely: "Next time I get together with a few old sisters, I will also call you to recognize people together." ”

"Really! That's a good feeling, thank you so much Sister Liu! Xiao Jiang's mother's face turned red with excitement, and suddenly she seemed to think of something, her complexion changed, she gritted her teeth, and said with a strong expression: "In this way, where are the sisters going to get together?" I'll pay for it! ”

"Look at what Xiao Jiang's mother said." Mother Liu first covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed a few times, and then pretended to be angry and said: "I will take you to recognize people, naturally you don't need to spend anything." ”

"That, how embarrassing is that......" can not only break into the coveted circle without spending money, Xiao Jiang's mother is so happy that she doesn't know what to do.

chatted a few more affectionately, Xiao Jiang's mother treated Liu's mother more warmly than her own sisters.

Seeing that the atmosphere was very good, Mother Liu and Jiang Chang'an's family glanced at each other, Mother Liu nodded lightly, and Jiang Chang'an's family smiled meaninglessly.

"Oh, fortunately, we met Xiao Jiang's mother, mother," Jiang Chang'an's family affectionately held Xiao Jiang's mother's arm and said: "I'm a person, I can't hide things in my heart, since I entered the Ningguo Marquis's Mansion, there have been a lot of questions in my heart, my mother must talk to me." ”

"This ......" Xiao Jiang's mother hesitated for a moment and said with a smile: "Everyone is a relative who is turning a corner, what questions do you have?" Just tell me that's it. ”

"We knew many days ago that the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion was going to hold Mrs. Jiang's birthday banquet today, and the second lady in our house came to the mansion early in the morning to help, which was all good, but our second lady hurriedly returned to the house and said that Mrs. Jiang had fainted...... On the way, I heard that Mrs. Jiang was fine, but said that something happened to Miss Cousin in the house...... Hey, I'm so confused, Mom tell me quickly, what the hell is going on? ”

"This ......" Xiao Jiang's mother touched her bun uncomfortably, and her face looked like she didn't know how to speak.

"Hey! Look at you, you just said that everyone is a relative, what a little bit of effort! Liu's mother complained unhappily: "Why did your attitude change so quickly." ”

"No, it's not ......" Xiao Jiang's mother hurriedly explained to Liu's mother, "I really think that Sister Liu is my own sister, but it's just ...... After all, this is the business of the masters, and I am a slave ......."

"Hey! Where is Xiao Jiang's mother worried! Jiang Chang'an's family took Xiao Jiang's mother's hand and said with a smile: "What happened in the house today, where is what my mother said can be hidden, how many ladies and young ladies are watching this, the relationship between the noble families in the capital is intertwined, and it is not difficult to inquire about something...... Mom, believe it or not, in a day's time, we will be able to know clearly what happened in the house today. ”

"This ......" Xiao Jiang's mother showed a bitter face, she had been in the Hou Mansion for more than ten years, so she naturally believed what Jiang Chang'an's family said.

"What else is there to hide, we asked you about these things, because we think that you are not ordinary in front of Mrs. Jiang, and the news will be more reliable." As she spoke, Mother Liu put a bracelet on Xiao Jiang's mother's wrist and said sincerely: "I also sincerely want to be friends with Xiao Jiang's mother." ”

Xiao Jiang's mother pinched the hard bracelet in her hand, thinking in her heart that what happened today would sooner or later be known by the people in the Zhenguo Mansion, in that case, she might as well tell it now, and she could sell a little favor.

Xiao Jiang's mother pretended to think about it, and then she seemed to have made up her mind, gritted her teeth and said: "It's all already = to say this, if I don't give some explanations, I'm too sorry for Sister Liu to recognize me as a girl." ”

"Hey! That's right! Mother Liu smiled: "Mother Xiaojiang is really a cheerful person, Sister Xiaojiang, I recognize your sister." ”

"My sister looks ......"

Mother Liu and Mother Xiao Jiang talked for a while, and after that, Mother Xiao Jiang babbled for a long time about how grand the birthday banquet in the Marquis Mansion of Ning Guo was today, and only after Jiang Chang'an's face was anxious did she start to talk about the topic.

"A few days ago, Mrs. Tai discussed with Miss Biao, saying that there would be a lot of guests coming today, and the third lady was too young to help, and the eldest lady and the second lady were afraid that they would not be able to be busy, so they asked Miss Cousin to go to the banquet today to help entertain the guests." Xiao Jiang's mother pulled the corners of her mouth, and said with some disdain: "What about Miss Cousin, but she said that she is not a serious Miss Houfu, so she should stay in the wing room and not show up, but after Mrs. Tai persuaded her a few times, Miss Cousin agreed again." ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Jiang's mother couldn't help but pout, looking very disdainful of Jiang Ruoyun's posture.

"Although it's a little inappropriate for Miss Cousin to go to the table to entertain guests, it's not impossible, and it's not a big problem, and then what?" Jiang Chang'an's family asked, "Is there something happening on the table?" ”

"I'm also busy today, my feet don't touch the ground, and I barely rested for a while when I waited for Mrs. Tai and a group of ladies and ladies to go to the play. It's a pity to think about it," Xiao Jiang's mother said with a pity on her face: "At that time, I saw the beaten princess pulling the horse to the palace to complain, but the girl of Sixi ran over in a hurry, saying that the gold-inlaid tea set that Mrs. Tai liked couldn't be found, hey, I heard it, the cold sweat came down, you don't know, that set of gold-inlaid tea set is Mrs. Tai's favorite thing, and I am only willing to take it out to enjoy it on weekdays but I don't need it, because the gorgeousness of the tea set and the drunken drama of beating the golden branch I watched today are very appropriate. Mrs. Tai then instructed me to take it out and use it...... When I had all the arrangements in place, I walked halfway down the road with the maid serving tea, but suddenly heard the news that Mrs. Tai had fainted and was carried into the Qingyuan, and as soon as I heard it, I hurried to the upper room, but as soon as I entered the courtyard of the main house, I heard Mrs. Tai's scolding......"

Xiao Jiang's mother shook her head, sighed twice, and said: "As soon as I heard it, I noticed that something was wrong, Mrs. Tai's voice didn't sound like a person after a serious illness and a coma, it just so happened that the maid guarding the door was more familiar with me, so I quietly lay outside the curtain and looked at it a few times." ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Jiang's mother suddenly paused, and the two of them showed meaningful looks.

"What did Mom see?" Jiang Chang'an's family couldn't help but ask.
