Chapter 27: Mother-Daughter Separation
Old Mrs. Xiao never waits to see her concubine again, Xiao Linhui is also the son of Old Lady Xiao, and Yang, as his wife, dares to whip her husband, which is a heinous crime in the eyes of Old Mrs. Xiao, who takes the code of "Female Commandment" as her lifelong creed.
Old Madam Xiao was so angry that she pointed at Mrs. Xiao Liu and scolded: "Yang, you actually dare to beat your husband?
"Do you still have three obedience and four virtues in your heart? Do you still have the Xiao family in your eyes? ”
Mrs. Xiao Liu bowed down and honestly admitted her mistake: "Old lady, I missed it just now, and I ask the old lady to forgive me." ”
Xiao Linhui hurriedly said: "Old lady, Huijun didn't mean it, she just missed, touched me gently, I'm fine." ”
Seeing Xiao Linhui defending Yang Huijun like this, Old Madam Xiao's heart rushed up, looking like a flounder.
Seeing Yang Huijun standing up, Old Madam Xiao shouted, "Who told you to get up?" ”
So Yang Huijun bowed down again and kept his movements unchanged.
She was so obedient that Old Madam Xiao was even more angry.
Old Mrs. Xiao endured it, looked at Xiao Lingwei, and when she saw her right hand, which was as red and swollen as a Northeast steamed bun, she immediately shouted distressedly: "Weiwei, my precious granddaughter." ”
As soon as she heard her call, Xiao Lingwei couldn't hold back any longer, and cried with a "wow".
"Wow wow... Grandmother. ”
Xiao Ling broke free from Xiao Linhui's embrace and stumbled towards Old Madam Xiao.
Old Madam Xiao hurriedly squatted down and greeted her with open hands.
Xiao Ling ran so quickly that when she threw herself into Mrs. Xiao's arms, Mrs. Xiao received a strong momentum and fell backwards.
Mrs. Xiao hurriedly supported Mrs. Xiao in the back.
Old Madam Xiao staggered a step, and finally stood up with Xiao Lingwei in her arms.
Xiao Lingwei is five years old, and she looks white and fat, very weighty, Mrs. Xiao was frightened when she saw it on the side, and she was afraid that Mrs. Xiao would not be able to hold it and fall, so she simply supported Mrs. Xiao's arm with her hand.
Xiao Lingwei wrapped her hands around Old Madam Xiao's neck, pressed her moist cheeks against her face, and shouted in a hoarse voice while sobbing: "Grandmother..."
This shout of "grandmother" broke Mrs. Xiao's heart, and her eyes were full of pity.
She gently patted Xiao Lingwei's back and coaxed: "Weiwei obedient, don't cry, with your grandmother here, no one dares to beat you." ”
Under her comfort, Xiao Ling's slight cry slowly weakened.
Old Madam Xiao glared at Yang Huijun angrily: "Yang, Weiwei's body is not good, you dare to abuse Weiwei like this."
"I have only two granddaughters, and in my heart, they are more precious than pearls.
"I regard her as a precious granddaughter, you let me see it once a year, I thought you were a slight mother, she is not in good health, you will definitely take care of her.
"I didn't expect you to take such good care of my precious granddaughter.
"I'm glad I saw it today, otherwise, my precious granddaughter wouldn't have known what she would be tortured by you?"
"Old lady, Huijun is not..."
"Shut up."
As soon as Xiao Linhui opened her mouth, she was stopped by Old Madam Xiao.
There are more than a dozen young masters in Xiao Mansion, but there are only two young ladies in the grandchildren, one is Xiao Hui, the second miss of the big house, and the other is Xiao Lingwei, the sixth miss of the sixth room.
Because granddaughters are scarce, they are ranked from the clan.
This is also the reason why although Xiao Lingwei is the concubine, she is also favored by Mrs. Xiao.
The person in charge of the backyard was powerful, and the people in the room didn't dare to say a word, and even breathed very lightly, only Xiao Ling's low sobbing echoed in the room.
Old Madam Xiao felt the sinking in her arms, she snorted heavily, and looked at Yang Huijun coldly: "Yang, if you beat your husband, I won't settle this account with you."
"But if you whip Weiwei for no reason, I will have to punish you.
"From now on, you will think about it behind closed doors for a month and copy the Female Commandments a hundred times."
Yang Huijun did not defend either, and responded obediently: "Yes, my daughter-in-law is willing to accept the punishment." ”
After speaking, she quietly glanced at Xiao Linxuan.
Xiao Linhui immediately walked to Old Madam Xiao's side and said, "Old Madam, I'll take Weiwei to bandage it." ”
Old Madam Xiao turned sideways to avoid his outstretched hand, and said in a deep voice, "Weiwei will live with me in the future." ”
"Nope." The six rooms and five people said in unison.
Mrs. Xiao looked at them suspiciously.
Old Madam Xiao had a straight face: "I just say okay." ”
Yang Huijun didn't care about Old Madam Xiao's order not to let her get up, got up and walked over: "Weiwei is used to sleeping with me, and when she goes elsewhere, she will cry." ”
Old Madam Xiao retorted: "Weiwei is already five years old, and she won't cry anymore." ”
"She has to get up many times at night, and she will disturb the old lady's rest."
"The Evergreen Courtyard has a grandmother and a maid to take care of Weiwei, which will not affect my rest."
Yang Huijun choked, and couldn't think of a reason for being anxious for a while, so he reached out to grab Xiao Lingwei.
Xiao Lingwei thought that she was going to beat herself again, so she hugged Mrs. Xiao tightly in fright, crying, "Don't hit me, don't beat me." ”
Old Madam Xiao was distressed when she heard this, and shouted at Yang Huijun: "Presumptuous, Yang, do you want to disobey me?" ”
With such a big hat buttoned down, Yang Huijun had to stop and said, "The daughter-in-law doesn't dare, the daughter-in-law just wants to be with her daughter." ”
Old Madam Xiao snorted: "I don't want to take away your daughter, I just let her live with me for a while, what's the matter, are you still worried that I will abuse your daughter like you?" ”
Yang Huijun, who was sarcastic, felt a trace of bitterness in her heart, and said softly: "The daughter-in-law didn't mean that, the daughter-in-law just..."
Old Madam Xiao interrupted her: "There is no need to explain, I have seen clearly what you are doing to Weiwei."
"Now I'm slightly afraid of you and don't want to live with you, so don't waste your time."
Yang Huijun retorted: "No, Weiwei is my biological daughter, why doesn't she want to live with me?" ”
As she spoke, she turned to Xiao Lingwei and shouted softly, "Weiwei, you stay and live with your mother, okay?" ”
Xiao Ling slowly turned her head, glanced at her, and immediately turned her head, buried herself in Old Madam Xiao's neck, and said sullenly: "Don't, I want to follow grandmother." ”
The hope in Yang Huijun's eyes suddenly dissipated, she was unwilling, and said again: "Weiwei, don't you want a mother?" ”
Xiao Ling didn't speak.
Old Madam Xiao dropped the sentence "think about it behind closed doors", and turned around and left the room.
"Weiwei." Yang Huijun shouted and chased out.
When she chased to the gate of the courtyard, the two grandmothers stopped her: "Sixth lady, the old lady has a life, please think about it behind closed doors." ”
Yang Huijun looked at Xiao Lingwei, who was gradually moving away, and shouted hoarsely: "Weiwei, come back." ”
It's a pity that Xiao Lingwei never looked back at her, nor did she answer her, just like when she beat Xiao Lingwei before, Xiao Lingwei kept calling her mother, and she didn't agree.
Yang Huijun lay on the door frame, her body slid down, she sat on the ground, staring blankly at the direction where Xiao Ling disappeared, two lines of tears flowed out of her eyes: "Weiwei, you come back." ”
"Madam, don't be sad, Weiwei just went to live with the old lady for a month, and after a month, she will come back."
Xiao Linhui helped her stand up and comforted her softly.
Yang Huijun muttered: "No, the look she gave me just now, I will always remember that she was blaming me."
"She won't forgive me anymore..."
