I only heard Xiang Wanqing continue: "I admit that our Xiang family is indeed from a poor background, but we are open-minded and selfless; And your Huo family is indeed a big family, but why did the Huo family do such a thing as yesterday to steal beams and change pillars and hide from the world?

"You ......" The muscles at the corners of Ning Jinxiu's mouth twitched.

"The rules of Xile Town, but all other people must notify the woman in advance, dare to ask the Huo family if they have notified us in advance?"

"No, right? Hehe! In this case, what qualifications does the Huo family have to talk about rules and upbringing? Xiang Wanqing asked and answered herself.

Ning Jinxiu's face changed from red to iron blue, and from iron blue to white, just when she was about to break out again, she heard the old lady shout, "Enough!" "Shoot the case!

The hall immediately became silent, no one dared to make a little more noise, and the people didn't even dare to breathe, but their eyes all secretly glanced at Wanqing, as if they were secretly speculating about her end.

And Xiang Wanqing still raised her head proudly, because what she stated was true, and she was open in her heart, so she was not afraid of anyone.

On the contrary, Ning Jinxiu was frightened by the old lady's momentum, after all, she provoked today's incident, if she hadn't deliberately made it difficult, it would not have led to Xiang Wanqing's strong counterattack.

But in the next moment, she didn't think so, because she thought that Xiang Wanqing couldn't have any status in the Huo family at all, which could be seen from the matter of the worship hall alone, but she was in the Huo family, so she felt that the old lady must have seen her being robbed of her by Xiang Wanqing and wanted to help her get angry.

Moreover, in the end, Xiang Wanqing's words just now were aimed at the entire Huo family, she couldn't help but bump into the old lady, and also bumped into the dignity of the entire Huo family, so from the overall situation, the old lady would not let her go.

But the old lady's next reaction disappointed Ning Jinxiu.

I saw that the old lady first stared at Xiang Wanqing with a stern face for a moment, but then she glanced at Ning Jinxiu, and said in a fierce voice: "Have you made enough trouble!" It's all when I'm dead, isn't it? Well? ”

"Let me tell you, as long as my wife still has a voice, it will not be the turn of others to call the shots in the affairs of the Huo family!" She paused for a moment, then continued.

Ning Jinxiu was surprised, because she didn't expect that the old lady not only didn't face her, but the second half of her sentence just coincided with what Xiang Wanqing said before that she was giving orders in front of the two elders.

Ning Jinxiu's eyes flashed with rare fear and panic, and the corners of her mouth twitched in embarrassment, not daring to say more, because no matter how arrogant she was, she was still very afraid of the old lady.

And the old lady's later words were even more unexpected by everyone.

I only heard her say: "Today's incident, the second young grandmother is indeed late, and she is indeed a little negligent in dressing up, and she also wears black shoes that she shouldn't wear, but these are all reasons, last night was not good, I asked Wu's mother to visit the second house in the middle of the night, so it delayed their rest time, Wu's mother-"

"Old lady, the slave is here." Mother Wu replied respectfully.

"What time did you arrive in the second house last night? What time did you leave? The old lady asked.

"Back to the old lady's words, the slave maid came to the house of the second young master and the second young grandmother at the hour of the hour (23:15 in the night), because the slave and maid talked a lot, and wanted to be a little more happy with the newcomer, so they selfishly stayed there for a while, and did not leave until the end of the morning (between 4:20 and 5 in the morning).

"It's all because the slave maid missed the night of the two newcomers' cave room, which caused the second young master to get up late today, and the second young grandmother was late, and because of this, the second young grandmother didn't have time to dress up carefully, and she wore the wrong shoes in a panic, all because of the slave and maid's greed, and please don't blame the second young grandmother, if you want to punish the slave and maid."

saw the old lady pursing her lips and smiling, and the others couldn't help but smile when they heard the words "there are many old words", "newcomers are happy", and "night in the cave room", and some even secretly covered their mouths and laughed, and the atmosphere eased a lot in an instant.

"Okay, then punish your old wife and me to copy the scriptures together, pray for the second and second daughter-in-law, and their little two, I hope they can be harmonious and beautiful, and cure the second child's illness as soon as possible, and let the second young grandmother add a grandson to me, then I will be content." The old lady blamed Mother Wu for saying.

"The slave and the maid obey the order, the slave and the maid must copy the scriptures well, and the slave and the maid have good news to tell the old lady, that is, the slave and the maid's handwriting is much more neat than before, I believe the Buddha will be very happy to see it." Wu's mother said deliberately seriously.

"Haha, you're an old thing, and you're the best at playing tricks." The old lady laughed "poof".

The whole room couldn't help but burst out laughing.

At this time, I saw Huo Yujin jumping into the hall, he had already changed out of yesterday's groom's wedding dress, wearing a sky blue gown, his face was clean, although his complexion was a little dark, but it was also a healthy wheat color, and his head was very clean and neat.

Although his person is indeed stupid, he is extremely refreshing and clean, which makes people look very comfortable, which is very different from what Xiang Wanqing saw last night.

"The little boy sat on the doorway, crying and shouting for his daughter-in-law, oh, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law......" He hummed a nursery rhyme that he didn't know who had taught him.

"Okay, your daughter-in-law is here, I can't lose it." Old Madam Huo spoiled and disgusted, and everyone laughed again.

For a while, it seemed that everyone had forgotten about the punishment of Xiang Wanqing, only to see Ning Jinxiu raise her eyes to look at the old lady unconvinced, and muttered in a low voice: "Mom, that family law ......"

The old lady coughed, changed her serious face again, and said:

"Okay, the second young grandmother just got married, and it is inevitable that some rules are not familiar, and there is no need for family law. Since ancient times, we have been forgiving and forgiving, so why should we bother with a new person? ”

"But," said she then turned to Wanqing again, and said in a slightly stern tone:

"Although our Huo family is a big family, we have never done that kind of thing to bully people and fish the people, and as for the deeds of 'stealing beams and changing pillars' and 'hiding from the sky and crossing the sea', we will not do it. Regarding this, the second young grandmother made a disrespectful remark and collided with the ancestors, and it is true that you should be punished, then you will be punished for fasting for a day and a night, go to the ancestral hall to bow down, and listen to the teachings of our ancestors. ”

"That's right, the old lady is the most merciful, and has always been kind to our subordinates."

"Isn't it, the Huo family's salary is the highest in the entire Xile Town, and the master of the Huo family also treats our subordinates as human beings the most, and never bullies us." The maids standing next to them muttered quietly.

The old lady smiled knowingly, turned her head to the ninth princess and said, "Ninth princess, are you still satisfied with my handling results?" ”

The Ninth Taigong still stroked his beard as before and nodded, "Hmm...... The old lady is right, and I think it can be done. ”

"Well, since the Ninth Taigong has no opinion, then it's decided." Old Madam Huo turned to everyone again and said:

"My eldest son Yumin died early, the younger son Yulin can't help but go home as a soldier outside, the rest of the family members, today are gathered here, yesterday's wedding was too many people, there are many people who take care of our own people, today I will open another banquet to invite our own family, well, except for the second young grandmother, the rest of the people go to have breakfast, wait for noon, remember to come to the hall to eat. Dongmei, take the second young master to the garden to bask in the sun. ”

"Yes." A maid led Huo Yujin out, and Huo Yujin turned around to look at Wanqing as she walked, causing everyone to laugh again.

"Ninth Taigong, please come here." The old lady turned around and said politely to the ninth lady.

"Yes, old lady, please." As he spoke, the Ninth Taigong was the first to walk out of the hall tremblingly.

The old lady followed closely behind, giving her a blank look as she passed by Ning Jinxiu.

Uncle Li and Mother Wu followed closely behind.

One by one, the others dispersed.

Ning Jinxiu originally wanted to say that the punishment was too light, but before she could say it, the room was almost gone, and the old lady's white eyes just now made her heart chuckle.

If you want to say who is the biggest loser today, it has to be her Ning Jinxiu.

Because although Xiang Wanqing was punished, the old lady's attitude was obviously towards her, and although Ning Jinxiu was not punished in any way, the old lady's words slapped her in the face!

I saw that her face with heavy makeup was white for a while, red for a while, purple for a while, and black for a while, she was angry, anxious and unwilling, but there was nothing she could do, she could only stomp her feet a few times angrily, and then glanced at Xiang Wanqing fiercely, and then walked out.

And among all the people, it was Huo Yujue who stayed to the end, he looked at Xiang Wanqing, and saw the stubborn and lonely beauty, frank and frustrated loneliness on her face, he lowered his head again in shame, and couldn't bear to look at it directly.

He wanted to go over and apologize to her, and express the guilt and self-blame that had been buried in his heart for a day and a night, but out of various scruples, he still couldn't take a step after all.

Now, she is his second sister-in-law, men and women are different, and her identity is orderly, even if he doesn't think about himself, he must think about her, and he must pay attention to proportion in every word and deed.

He bit his lip, suppressed his apologies, and left the hall.

A moment later, Xiang Wanqing was led to the ancestral hall by a maid.

As mentioned earlier, the Huo family ancestral hall is in the westernmost corner of the Huo family's mansion, where cigarettes are filled all day long, the environment is quiet and cold, far away from the glitz and bustle of the world, but it also looks eerie and terrifying.

After the maid took Xiang Wanqing with her, she left, and Xiang Wanqing knelt alone in front of the Buddha statue and ancestral tablet in the ancestral hall.

It's okay during the day, at least the light is sufficient, and at night, the huge ancestral hall is extremely empty, the dim oil lamp flickers on and off, Xiang Wanqing raised his eyes and looked around, only to feel a cold and cold atmosphere.
