XXIV: Taunt

"I don't understand much about what the seventh sister said, after all, I am not the master of the house, and my mother has always been taught by my grandmother, everything has to be asked by my grandmother to count, if the seventh sister wants which jewelry, you can go to my grandmother to ask, as long as my grandmother speaks, the eldest lady has no words."

seems to be harmonious, but in fact, the dark tide is surging, and the words of the two come and go, but it gives Xiao Qi a feeling of watching the excitement.

"How can I say that the eldest lady is also the housekeeper now, and it is not the same thing that grandmother should do everything." Su Huiyao inserted another piece of melon, "Today's eleventh sister is dressed beautifully, looking at this jewelry and satin, it is not difficult to see that a lot of effort has been wasted in order to see Xiao Gongzi, right?" is worthy of being the daughter of the grandmother of the family, and she is treated more than us concubines. ”

"Seventh sister said with a smile, my clothes today are not as valuable as half of the material that my father brought to you when he returned to Beijing, but unfortunately because of the matter of the eldest brother and Miss Mo'er, my father was angry for a while, so he gave me the material and asked me to take it to the second sister, which is also blind to my father's heart, because the eldest brother also involved the seventh sister, about this is what the world often says is a glory and a loss, right?"

Now the matter of Su Yingxiao, the eldest brother of the Su family, has set off a lot of waves in Xunjing, and everyone uses this matter as a talking point after cooking, and the Xiao family naturally knows something.

Today, Su Yunyao said this in front of Xiao Qi, isn't that obviously making Su Huiyao unable to get off the stage?

Su Huiyao smiled embarrassedly, but Xiao Qi couldn't tear her face with her, so she could only continue to deal with it, "Big brother and that Mo'er girl are in love, no wonder they did such a stupid thing, fate is predestined, even if the eldest sister-in-law is unwilling, there is no way." ”

"Really?" Su Yunyao said mockingly, "That's because my sister is lonely and unheard, and I haven't seen my eldest brother care more about Miss Mo'er, she doesn't go to the place where she lives for ten days and half a month, but she is very attentive in front of her sister-in-law, this is strange, how can you say that Miss Mo'er is also pregnant, and she is happy with each other, you should take more care of her, could it be that the eldest brother is so good to her sister-in-law now, is there another plan?" ”

What else can be drawn? The two and a half sentences you said back and forth, Xiao Qi basically understood it.

Na Mo'er and Su Yingxiao didn't have any true feelings, but one was for money and status, and the other was for beauty, and the two of them hit it off when they each took what they needed, which made such a shameful thing. As for Su Yingxiao's kindness to Meng Ruoqian, it was just to flatter.

He is not literate, he has no fame, he is useless except for his age, and even his younger brother, who is a few years younger, is more outstanding than him.

To put it bluntly, the Meng family was able to marry their daughter to him, completely for the sake of Su Yao's face and the Su family's court, not because of Su Yingxiao at all, but because Su Yingxiao was not good to Meng Ruoqian, the Meng family might not turn their faces at any time.

Xiao Qi had seen the battle in the big house, and he could see this idea clearly after thinking about it.

Su Huiyao was cheeky, and regardless of Su Yunyao's cynicism, she only glared at her and turned around and stuck to Xiao Qi's side, while Su Yuyao was stupid next to her, blushing like an apple, feeling that she had no face at all because of her eldest brother's affairs.

She is a small-faced person, although her temper is bigger, and her brain is not too bright, but if anyone specifically targets her, she can still hear a few points, like those words just now, which makes her a girl want to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Su Yunyao didn't like her two sisters, and she didn't have a good impression of Xiao Qi, so she didn't bother to deal with Su Huiyao, so she turned around and walked to Su Jinyao's side.

Xiao Qi just wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the two sisters, Su Huiyao and Su Yuyao, and blocked it tightly.

When the Xiao family left, Su Yunyao and the others didn't go out to send them off, but Su Huiyao was eager to send people back to the Changjun Palace, Su Yao saw her careful thoughts, and reprimanded her back with two sentences.

It was rare for him to settle in Yingxiaju tonight, Cao Qianlian widened his shoes and socks for him, washed his feet again, pinched his shoulders and rubbed his back for a while, and finally asked cautiously, "I didn't go to the front today, I'm afraid of embarrassing the Su family, and I don't know which girl Xiao Gongzi has taken a fancy to our family?" ”

Su Yao heard the temptation in her words, but he didn't hide it, "How can the sister-in-law of the Changjun Mansion be related to our family?" said that it was Xiao Ling, the son of his Xiao family, who married his wife, except for doing things for the emperor, why are you still worried about Xiao Qi? ”

"Don't be angry, the concubine just thinks that Xiao Qi Gongzi is a handsome and dashing person, in case she falls in love with any of our girls, it's also a good thing, although she married our family low, then it's not shameful, isn't it? Xiao Ling Gongzi is a concubine, and the old lady arranged the marriage of the fourth girl and him, so why is Xiao Qi Gongzi still here? ”

Su Yao turned his head to look at her, "People are just here to have a good time, why do you still have a heart for him?" That the Xiao family's mother, Yang's eyes are above the top, and she has a fate, and she has always been the only one who is polite to her, and may allow our daughter's daughter to enter his son's door? Don't think about it. ”

"How can you think about it?" Cao Qianlian moved in front of Su Yao, and said in a soft and trembling voice, "Lord, do you think that when you were with your concubine, there were people in the family who blocked you, and now you are staying together?" I see that Xiao Qi Gongzi and Hui'er have talked a lot today, and Yu'er has also looked at them a few more times, maybe it is interesting to them, why don't you take the time to ask? ”

As soon as Su Yao heard this, he became angry: "Aren't you falling for some evil?" Why are you embarrassed to say this? I'm choosing candidates for Yu'er's marriage, I won't lose her, Hui'er is still young, it's not too late to stay for another two years, can the four girls and the five girls marry her first if they don't get married? And the Xiao family you said, then the Yang family was panting there? Even if the daughter of our Su family goes, she can only be a concubine! I'll put it here for you, don't think about those useless things. ”

Without waiting for Cao Qianlian to speak again, Su Yao took the first step to get into bed, no matter what the expressions of the people behind him, he only turned his back to her and closed his eyes and prepared to go to bed.

Cao Qianlian was also very angry, she went down to the ground and removed the basin for washing her feet, because she was afraid of letting the maid come in and disturb his rest, so many years of virtuous reputation can not be pretended overnight, naturally it has become a habit.

When she came back and passed by the screen, she glared at Su Yao a few times, thinking that she was already miserable as a concubine in her life, and she didn't live as well as the eldest lady Qin Manhuai, Tan Xianghua, a person who has been dead for more than ten years, can also make the old lady miss it so much, and the pair of daughters she left behind were even more painful by the old lady's palm, and as a concubine, she didn't live as beautifully as them, and even the children's marriages hit walls everywhere.

In this case, how can it be possible to let two daughters be concubines for others? It's useless to be favored, you can't hold the real power in your hands, even if you have oil and water, it's not long-lasting, in case you meet a husband who can't coax you to see something different, and you turn your head and pet others in two and a half days, then it's too late to regret it.

It's better to have real power in your hands.

Cao Qianlian secretly swore in his heart, 'I must let Yu'er and Hui'er marry into a wealthy family, and they will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives, and it is impossible to be a concubine or something!' ’

This time, because the Mid-Autumn Festival is very busy, so the officials and lords in the search for Beijing have also moved around, and this morning Qin Manhuai received a post from Qingde Houfu.

It was said that there would be a horse club next to Yingqiu Lake the day after tomorrow, and almost all the girls and sons of each family came, which was very lively, so Qin Manhuai brought a few children over to play.

But this post seems to be a piece of paper, but it actually weighs a thousand pounds, Qin Manhuai didn't dare to agree immediately, first asked his own official, Su Yao meant to let her take it, don't be ashamed, and asked the old lady again.

The old lady said moderately, "There are a lot of girls in our Su family, especially Brother Yao'er's daughter, can you still bring them all?" Even if you can't watch both of them, it's better to choose a few obedient and sensible ones to go with you, and it's better to take care of them. ”

How else to say that the old lady is powerful, people never deal with this kind of thing like Qin Manhuai for fear of making mistakes, because sitting in that position is not only to have a bowl of water level, but also to promote strengths and avoid weaknesses.

To put it bluntly, if she performs well and gets sweetness, she will always behave well, be well-behaved and obedient, and if she performs badly, she will also recognize her own shortcomings, on the contrary, if she is blindly tolerant, she will inevitably be sad if she performs well, and she feels that it doesn't matter if she is good or bad, and she will become more and more unscrupulous if she performs badly.

Although the old lady's method has many funnels, it is the most feasible.

Su Qingyao has always been sensible, and she is very well-behaved when she goes out, although she is the daughter of the second room, Qin Manhuai, is especially close to her, probably because her temperament is very similar to her fifth daughter. And the eleventh girl Su Yunyao has seen everything thoroughly, and it is also a good choice to take her out, it is about to enter winter, taking advantage of the fact that the weather is not too cold, Qin Manhuai thought about taking the fifth girl Su Qianyao out for a walk.

Su Jinyao, the daughter of the third lady Kang Jinglan, has never been brilliant, but she is still honest, and it is not a bad thing to take her out to see the world.

The Yang family, the mother of the Changjun Palace, didn't care about the daughter-in-law of the concubine, and decided the family affair in less than five days, and took the eight characters of Su Peiyao and Xiao Ling together, and got married after a month and a half.

So the old lady has to take strict care of Su Peiyao now, she can't do this kind of thing clumsily embroidering wedding dresses, so learn etiquette and rules and snacks.

The old lady loves this four girls, so she naturally took out her posture of being a daughter-in-law back then, and told her all day long how she was when she was young, how to resolve her mother-in-law's troubles, what to respond to when she didn't listen to her sister-in-law, and how to stop her husband from accepting a concubine if he had the heart.

But even if this old lady is teaching her what she understands for her, Su Peiyao doesn't have to learn it anymore, she only keeps sloppy eyes, and only thinks about when she can meet her fiancΓ©.
