Chapter 26: Satisfaction
In fact, according to Yan Yan's original intention, she really didn't want to see the Queen Mother on this occasion, let alone meet these so-called court wives, but she knew that this was the best opportunity to defend herself.
She didn't do anything wrong, what was wrong was that the Lu family shouldn't have brought Lu You out on that occasion, and what was wrong was that the Ma family was not strict and shouldn't have been negligent, so strictly speaking, she was the real victim, so she wanted to stand up upright, so she had to seize this rare opportunity.
Of course, Yan Yan dared to do this because she knew that the so-called change of clothes of the original owner at that time was just to change her coat, to put it bluntly, she took off her coat and changed it to another, but the rules in ancient times were strict, plus Lu Ming proposed to withdraw from her relatives on the spot, coupled with the spread of some well-intentioned people, everyone mistakenly thought that she and Lu You had a personal relationship.
So she can't carry this pot, she has to stand up and throw it out.
It's just that she can't say these words so quickly, just like getting married or becoming a monk, she can't let Ma know her hole cards too early, so she will push the problem to Ma.
Ma Shi looked at the little face in front of him, which was obviously very familiar, but a strange feeling rose in his heart again, saying strange, not entirely, saying familiar, not quite right, in short, a very strange feeling.
Holding back the suspicions in his heart, Ma took a deep breath, and then said with a smile: "Child, this matter is still up to you, my aunt hopes that it will be the same as before, but my aunt is afraid... ”
Ma Shi didn't say the next words, but looked at Yan Yan intently.
"Then I'll listen to my aunt and think about it. By the way, there is another thing I want to tell my aunt, that day my two aunts said that my grandmother fell ill because of my affairs, and now that I am well, I should go to visit, and also let the old man feel at ease, and please forgive my aunt. ”
Yan Yan also remembered that she should go to the Meng family, anyway, the Meng family is the original owner's foreign family, and she has not stopped moving around all these years, so it is imperative for her to go to the Meng family this time, otherwise it will arouse everyone's suspicion.
No, Yan Yan mentioned it, and Ma Shi quickly smiled: "It should be, it should be, I've been thinking about this for the past two days, and everything is ready, you just go out and talk to Mother Liu beside me." By the way, speaking of Mother Liu, you don't plan to use your nurse Mother Li anymore? I saw that she was still interested in you. ”
Yan Yan shook his head, "Forget it, the things in my house are now taken care of by Qinghe and Qingmiao, and there is no need for Mother Li." ”
Don't say anything else, just wake up at Yan Yan Mother Li's out, Yan Yan absolutely believes that the original owner's hanging has a lot to do with her, what's the use of her staying by her side for such a person? It's not sure who it will fall to at a critical time!
"After you had an accident that day, I also tried her, she said that she was dizzy, and I don't know what to say to you, but she absolutely didn't mean to harm you, she was also very sad to see you hanged, and later, you came back to life, she was scared at first, I couldn't believe it, and then when I saw that you didn't want her, she knelt down and begged me, and wanted to ask me to help her intercede, and I agreed. Child, in any case, she is the person that your grandmother has carefully chosen for you to stay, and you can think about it yourself. ”
"Got it." Yan Yan lowered his head.
After all, she would never ask this mother-in-law to stay by her side again, so she sent it to Zhuangzi if she couldn't do it.
"Well, aren't you going to your grandmother's house? I'll just ask someone to set the meal, you eat at my place, and I'll ask Mother Liu to bring the things. Seeing Yan Yan's unwillingness, Ma pondered for a moment and said.
"Madam, let's go as a concubine." An aunt on the ground hurriedly picked up the words, and seeing that Ma had no objection, she hurriedly went out.
This meal, Yan Yan really experienced the first meal Lin Daiyu ate when she entered Jiafu for the first time, the maids stood on the ground and served vegetables for everyone, the whole room was silent, and even the most lively Yan Bin sat honestly.
After the meal, the maids still brought tea to rinse their mouths, followed by tea, and before a cup of tea was drunk, a mother-in-law talked back, saying that everything was ready, and asked what time to go out, so as to inform the people in the carriage and stable.
Ma Shi glanced at Yan Yan first when he heard this, ordered his mother-in-law to bring the gift list, and took a look at it himself, and then handed it to Yan Yan, "You see if there is anything missing, tell your aunt." Also, after the things are ready, you go back to change your clothes, you are too plain, the old people will not like it, and also, if you really don't like Mother Li, I will temporarily lend Mother Liu to go out of the door, and wait for the right one in the future. ”
Yan Yan didn't go to take the gift list, "My aunt has always been thoughtful, if I still have anything to worry about, I'll go back and change my clothes." ”
"This kid, let you take a look." Ma stuffed the gift slip into Yan Yan's hand.
Yan Yan had no choice but to take it and glance at it, and saw that the head of the row was written with two hundred-year-old ginseng, two hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, two packets of bird's nest, and four satin horses from the rich Changchun and several pastries made by the most famous Xiangguizhai in the capital.
"Very good, very thoughtful, thank you aunt for bothering." Yan Yan saw that it was all available to visit the elders, so what was there to dissatisfaction with?
"Well, go and change your clothes, and I'll send someone to inform the people in the stable." Also, when you get over there, it's time to say hello, it's time to say hello... ”
"Oh, mother, it's not the first time that the eldest sister has gone out, I don't sound verbose, and besides, the eldest sister hasn't been going for a long time, and she will come back in the afternoon." Yan Bin interrupted Ma's words.
"The second brother is getting more and more naughty, and even his mother dares to make it." Yan Yu knocked Yan Bin's head.
"Second sister, I'm not arranging, I'm admonishing. Okay, I won't follow you long-winded, I'm going to write, I haven't finished writing a few big characters assigned by Mr. today. Yan Bin grinned at Yan Yan and left.
"Mother, then I'm going to review my homework, eldest sister, be careful on the road, and do you need me to pick you up in the afternoon?" Yan Zhang asked.
"Don't be so troublesome, now even the second brother knows that he is motivated, and the eldest brother has to be more attentive, if there is anything that will not be asked in time, Mr., that day the eldest sister went to the library to find a book of the top three policy collections, I think it is very good after reading it, and I will send the maids to you when I turn back." Yan Yan said with a smile.
"Huh? Eldest sister, isn't it, do you still watch this kind of collection? Yan Zhang's eyes widened.
"Besides, your eldest sister is not here for you, don't let down your eldest sister's heart." Ma nodded in satisfaction, and at the same time took the opportunity to tap his son.
She also has high hopes for this son, after all, she wants to inherit the entire Hou Mansion, what can she do without any real skills?
