Chapter 2 Dumb people eat coptis
These mothers-in-law were all rough messengers from the Xiao family, and they had a lot of strength, but after two or three blows, they had already knocked the door open.
Xiao Rongyue looked coldly at the half-open door, took Camellia and the two mothers-in-law, and went inside.
This study is very spacious, the dense bookshelves are full of books, and there are Wu Sheng's orchid leaf drawings on the wall, which is quite elegant. Xiao Rongyue didn't look at it, but walked towards the depths of the study with Camellia, where there was a tall plain floor screen separating the study from the inner room behind.
Xiao Rongyue's steps stopped in front of the screen, looking at the screen indifferently, and he could already roughly see the situation inside through the light plain veil.
The woman on the couch in the layers of drapery sat up in exclamation, and was busy looking for clothes, and the man angrily scolded: "Who! Who dares to come in! ”
The sneer at the corner of her mouth deepened, and Xiao Rongyue snorted at the clothes scattered on the ground: "Let people pick it up and take it out to see." ”
The men's robes and the women's embroidered coats were thrown around the screen, and no one needed to say anything about it, but they knew what was going on inside.
Camellia turned white and stared at the lichen robe: "Lady, this ......"
The mother-in-law picked up the robe as instructed, and Xiao Rongyue smiled lightly: "Don't worry, you continue, there is something to talk about when the Du family comes." ”
After that, they retreated with the camellia without looking back.
She really didn't understand why Xiao Shi still stayed in Du Mansion honestly when he didn't even enter the new house on the wedding night, and he was still in the study with other women, and he didn't wake up until he was tortured to death many years later.
Ignoring the angry scolding of the man in the room and the low crying of the woman, Xiao Rongyue asked her mother-in-law to watch the study firmly, sat down on the couch brought by Camellia, and ate the tea soup and snacks sent from the main room in peace, without paying attention to the people and things in the room.
Zhan's mother was woken up by someone, and her daughter Tu'er was calling her anxiously: "A-Niang, A-Niang, it's not good......"
"What do you say? The lady didn't go to serve soup early in the morning, but went to the West Side Courtyard? She was still drunk, still confused, and asked Tu'er in a daze: "What is she doing there?" ”
Tu'er shook her head and said with a pout: "I just saw Sanqi come out of the West Side Courtyard, saying that he had caught the thief over there, and he was going to Chunhua Garden to invite Lord Du Dalang and Mrs. Du to come over, and he had to report to the official......
Report to the officer! Zhan's mother was excited, and now the wine was completely awake, and she came back to her senses and hurriedly put on her outer robe and walked out quickly.
Big lady, is this crazy? Today is the first day she married into the Du family, she went to Chunhua Garden to wash her hands and serve soup to recognize her relatives, what kind of trouble is this?
Thinking about Xiao Rongyue's unusual actions, words and deeds yesterday, she felt more and more that something was wrong, and gritted her teeth and instructed Tu'er: "You go with me, if there is anything, I can send the news back to Xiao's house to Mrs. earlier." ”
After all, Tu'er is young and has never experienced these things, so she was so frightened that her face turned white for a while: "I, I won't go, if Mrs. Du gets angry for a while......"
Zhan's mother twisted her with hatred: "Have you forgotten what Madame ordered when you came here before?" We must let the eldest lady An An stay in the Xiao family separately, so that she can plan for the future. ”
"If something goes wrong with this big lady...... Your grandfather is still on the Xiao family's Zhuangzi! ”
Tu'er reluctantly moved her steps and followed Zhan's mother towards the west side courtyard.
When Zhan's mother rushed to the west courtyard, she looked at Xiao Rongyue who was sitting on the couch and flipping through the book, as well as the mothers-in-law who surrounded the study, and the men who were angry and scolding in the closed study.
When I got closer, I heard clearly: "...... Xiao family, you are so bold, you only married into the Du family yesterday, and you dare to do anything wrong today, I will definitely send your grandmother back to the Xiao family. ”
This is Du Jia Saburo! Xiao Rongyue's newlywed husband!
Mother Zhan's face couldn't help but change greatly, and she hurriedly stepped forward: "What is the lady doing?" Isn't it time to go and serve tea to the eldest lady and confess their relatives? ”
She hurriedly looked around again: "It's Du Jialangjun inside, why didn't you invite Langjun out soon, why did you make trouble here!" ”
It's just that no one dared to listen to her words at this time, and the mother-in-law glanced at Xiao Rongyue, and saw that she didn't pay attention to Zhan's mother, so they had the courage to act as if they hadn't heard it.
Xiao Rongyue glanced at Zhan's mother and smiled faintly: "Mom was drunk yesterday?" ”
Zhan's mother's face turned red for a while, and she said loudly: "Yesterday, the lady rewarded me with a pot of wine, but I ate three or two glasses, and I didn't know how to ......."
Xiao Rongyue raised her eyebrows: "The lord and lady of the Du family will come over in a while, my mother should go back to the room first, I smell the wine is not good." ”
"Why are you still making trouble with the lord and wife of the Du family!" Zhan's mother's heart sank, and she couldn't help but turn a few more times in her heart, but she still hurriedly persuaded: "Today is an auspicious day to recognize your relatives, and it's not too late to talk about anything when you come back after serving tea and soup." ”
As she spoke, she ordered her mother-in-law to stand back, and was anxious to push the door, but was stopped by a sneer from Xiao Rongyue behind her.
"Mom is so decent," Xiao Rongyue's voice came unhurriedly, "Did my mother not understand what I said just now, or did she not want to understand?" The elders of the Du family and I will deal with the matter here, and my mother is really hearted, so she has to make up her mind for me in such a hurry? ”
This sounds not so simple, no matter how confused Zhan's mother is, she can hear that something is wrong, her body suddenly stiffened, and she turned her head to look at her eldest lady in shock, only to see a faint smile on her delicate face, she couldn't tell whether she was happy or angry, her eyes never fell on her, and the book in her hand never stopped.
But the more this is the case, the more bottomless Zhan's mother becomes, what is wrong with the eldest lady, her temperament suddenly becomes cold, and her speech becomes more and more unfathomable, as if she has changed people.
For a while, she didn't have the courage to rely on the old and sell the old anymore, so she could only retreat abruptly, and said in a low voice: "Don't dare, don't dare, the slave is also in a hurry, worried that she will miss the time to recognize her relatives." ”
Xiao Rongyue raised her eyebrows slightly, and instructed Camellia: "Mother Zhan is older, it was Mrs. who ordered her to come to Du's house with her, and she thought about me wholeheartedly, let Mother Zhan hold those robes, and it would be appropriate for her to accompany me to talk to Lord Du Dalang and Mrs. Dalang for a while." ”
Looking at the robe in front of her, Zhan's mother was suffering, and she could see what was going on now, but Xiao Rongyue asked her to carry the robe that she picked up from the study with this plate.
This time it really made her dumb to eat coptis, and she couldn't tell if she was bitter!
