Fourteen: Homecoming

"Granddaughter... The granddaughter didn't think about it so much, don't be angry with your granddaughter..."Su Peiyao couldn't help but shed two tears.

It's not that she's afraid that her grandmother will say about her, but she's just afraid that the duck will fly.

In the case of their Su family, marrying Qingde Houfu is already very good, and marrying a proper high, generally speaking, this family matter is not easy to ask.

It's a pity.

"Okay, what do you say about this?" The old lady was a little confused, but after thinking about it carefully, it was not difficult to think that she, a girl in the boudoir, could make such an evaluation of such a thing?

He also said what was in his heart.

Some of them are inexplicable, and they are a little strange.

"The third sister and the seventh sister asked their granddaughter, and the granddaughter was embarrassed to say anything like it or not, so she said she didn't like it, and they asked if they liked the wealth of the Hou Mansion, and the granddaughter didn't think so much, they all blamed the granddaughter for not being strict with her mouth, and the third sister still had to help her granddaughter."

Where is this to help her? Hearing this, the old lady understood completely, and her face immediately became even worse: "You are young and not enough, grandmother doesn't blame you, but this matter is obviously a trap, why can't you see it?" If it keeps being like this, how will you be in charge of the family when you get married in the future? It's not that difficult, you don't even have this idea long-term? ”

To put it bluntly, the old lady hates iron but not steel.

Su Peiyao still thought that the two sisters were sincerely helping her, and she didn't doubt them much because of this little episode.

After all, this is indeed their own fault, and they didn't pull her tongue and let her say those words according to her, she said it herself, how can she blame them?

"That's it." The old lady waved her hand, "You go down, this matter will be handled by me, the old lady, tomorrow." ”

"Thank you, grandmother." Su Peiyao withdrew from Chang Xizhai with tears in her eyes.

Su Yunyao heard Li Xi talk about this, but it was not so comprehensive, but it was also a rough idea.

It's a pity that this girl is straightforward and fast-talking, and she doesn't have any heart, so many people in the house can mingle with her, and it's convenient to inquire about anything.

"The slave maid heard that the fourth girl cried for a while because of this, and she was still crying when she came out of Chang Xizhai."

Su Yunyao held a osmanthus flower and showed her spirit, and listened to Li Xi's words, "Cry, cry, I hope she can learn some lessons, the two girls of the second lady are not easy to mess with." ”

In fact, this fourth sister's mind is not bad, but she lost her mother at an early age, and then her father married her mother Qin Manhuai back, she was a little unbearable, and always thought that Qin Manhuai robbed her mother.

Especially Cao Qianlian instilled this kind of thinking in her when she was a child, although she was nominally the second lady, Su Peiyao more or less regarded her as half of her mother.

If she doesn't suffer, she will never be able to see through Cao Qian's mother and daughter.

The next day, when everyone went to Chang Xizhai to greet the old lady, it could be said that they had their own ghosts.

Why? The old lady first gave them a closed door and made them wait for a while, and then came out after three o'clock in the sun.

When she finally got inside, Cao Qianlian only looked at the old lady's expression and knew that today's show was aimed at her.

"Get up." After everyone had saluted, the old lady said expressionlessly, her eyes drifting to Cao Qianlian from time to time.

Su Yunyao looked at the fourth sister sideways and found that her eyes were swollen, which should be the reason for crying yesterday, but it was very pitiful.

"Second lady, what did your two girls do, I think you also know, right?"

Cao Qianlian was looking up at the old lady because she was named, and only after a long time did she agree, "The daughter-in-law doesn't know much, that is, Yu'er and Hui'er said that they would help the four girls make a good impression in front of Mrs. Qingdehou, and then Mrs. She left us, but the daughter-in-law didn't know why, and asked Yu'er about them, and they were also confused." ”

The old lady snorted coldly, "Confused? Isn't that what they calculated? ”

"What does the old lady mean by that?" Cao Qianlian's face was aggrieved.

"It's useless to talk too much, you have your own number of what you teach your children, my old lady only asks you, is your mind too vicious? How can you say that Pei'er married into a good family, that is her own creation, what is your daughter mixed with? Since she was in love with Qingde Houfu, Pei'er came to see her, what kind of good impression did you make with your daughter's help? ”

"You said that your daughter-in-law didn't understand much, did Yu'er Hui'er do something wrong? If you really make any mistakes, just say it, and go back to your daughter-in-law to teach them a lesson. ”

In just three or two sentences, Cao Qianlian can be said to have changed her face a lot, her tears are full of tears, and she seems to be ready to kneel down for the old lady.

"You don't have to follow me to fix this set, Yu'er Hui'er has the heart to marry a rich and noble family, it depends on their own fate, what's the matter with blocking other people's good relatives? Knowing that Pei'er is a sincere child who is not good at scheming, she actually abducted her to say that she just took a fancy to the money of Qingde Houfu, this is a good thing that your daughter did! ”

As soon as the old lady's voice fell, Cao Qianlian also cooperated, and the two lines of tears were like water that opened the floodgates, and they flowed out without stinginess, "Old lady, you misunderstood!" They don't have that mind, they really sincerely help the four girls, thinking that her He family is a scholarly family, if it seems that the four girls are not very knowledgeable, they thought of a way to help her, as for what you just said, it is completely nonsense, but it is what their sisters said when chatting, how do you... How can you say that they were abducted, what do the four girls want to say, they can't control it? ”

Yes, I hit another soft nail.

"Humph! You can still deceive Yao'er with this trick of crying, making trouble and hanging yourself, my old lady can still be deceived by you after living for decades? How to say that the family affairs of Yu'er and Hui'er, the two girls, have to be counted by my nod, if you still don't know how to restrain yourself, don't blame me for finding someone to send them away! You don't want the girl next to you to marry to a good place, you only think about your daughter, so vicious! ”

Cao Qianlian was still crying, Su Huiyao and Su Yuyao also followed the pear blossom to bring rain, and the three of them knelt on the ground and hugged each other and cried together, and those who didn't know what was going on thought that this big family had bullied them.

Su Yunyao was annoyed by their mother and daughter like this, and Su Moyao had already turned her head away from looking.

"Old lady, the lord is back, and the carriage will be here in a moment!" Chang Xizhai's first-class maid almost trotted and said, "Brother Xiao also came back, and somehow the lord came back with Brother Xiao'er, you should prepare quickly." ”

Hearing that his eldest son and backer were back, Cao Qianlian wiped his tears with a handkerchief and slowly stood up, "Old lady, the lord is back, and the daughter-in-law is not easy to see people like this, if it involves you and the lord There is a conflict, it will not be good, so go back to Yingxia House first." ”

It sounds like asking the old lady for the sake of it, but actually? Everyone knows how many catties and taels she said.

Is this showing off her favor to the old lady? In threatening the old lady with her precious son?

When she came out of Chang Xizhai, Su Yuyao was puzzled, "Mother, when my father and big brother come back, the old lady doesn't dare to bully us, why do you want to go back to Yingxiaju?" ”

"You're such an elm head." Cao Qianlian blamed on his lips, but the speed under his feet did not decrease at all, "Do you understand what it means to want to capture and indulge?" Your father didn't see us when he came back, he would come to Yingxia Pavilion, and then our mother was pitiful, and out of the eyes of the old lady, what do you want to say, your father doesn't believe it? ”

To put it bluntly, I just want to provoke Su Yao's pity, and when the time comes, Su Yao can only believe anything, and I am still worried that the old lady will show them a look?

Qin Manhuai was supporting the old lady here, and almost everyone was dispatched, including the pregnant fourth lady Liu He, all of whom waited in front of the gate.

What can be seen is different from what is imagined, it should be a happy family, but Su Yao's face is not quite right.

"Yao'er, have you worked hard along the way? I'll see, yo, I've lost a lot of weight! The old lady looked at her son lovingly, and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Let the mother worry, is it the son's." Su Yao didn't have any temperature in his words, but just took the old lady's hand, "It's very sunny outside, let's go in and talk." ”

Su Yingxiao got out of the carriage and wanted to turn around to help his wife Meng Ruoqian, but Meng Ruoqian obviously didn't want to pay attention to him, shook off his hand, and got out of the carriage by himself.

Then from the small carriage at the back came down another girl, with a delicate appearance, big eyes, and a good figure, and a crumbling little waist like a willow branch.

No one noticed her, but Su Yunyao looked at her attentively, and she had the impression that Su Mansion did not have such a ** maid as her, and she was not familiar with her, so it didn't look like she was here.

It's strange, the maids next to her are all walking on both sides of the carriage, why is she the only one who wants to take the carriage? Even if the sister-in-law brings the girl from her mother's house, it shouldn't be like this.

But what her father didn't care about and agreed to, Su Yunyao didn't have much suspicion.

Cao Qianlian pondered for a while what she wanted to say to Su Yao in Yingxia, first feeling sorry for him all the way, and then showing some sentimental gestures, when the time comes, Su Yao will be distressed, and she must ask her something, and then tell him about it half-pushed, and then tell him about it, what Qingde Houfu has fallen in love with the four girls, it is mainly to explain that the two daughters have the intention to help the four girls, but they were misunderstood by the old lady.

But she didn't calculate what she didn't calculate, the eldest son she thought about day and night, came back this time and caused her trouble.

When Su Yao angrily broke into Yingxia Residence, he scared them a lot.

"Your Lord, are you back? Is it going well? The concubine heard that the rain over there is not small, you don't catch a cold, right? ”

"Shut up!" Su Yao scolded angrily: "Look at the good things your son has done!" My Su family's face has been lost to him! ”

Cao Qianlian didn't react for a while, Su Yuyao and Su Huiyao came in with joy, but they happened to hear this.
