Chapter 241: Half a master
Su Dingyuan turned around and left, leaving Su Dingshan and the others. Su Dingshan couldn't protect Su Ruoyun at this time, glanced at her, and said to her: "You are a disobedient girl, you have done such a wicked thing, and if you don't repent, no one can save you!" ”
As he spoke, he brushed his sleeves away.
Su Ruoyun was so frightened that her whole mind was blank, and she stumbled back to the room with the help of the maid Cui'er, and then fell asleep groggily.
At noon on the second day, Su Ruoyun woke up leisurely. After some freshening up, I listened to Cui'er talk about what happened after she returned to the room.
Early this morning, Su Dingyuan ordered the lover who committed the crime to be beaten to death with a stick. The people in each room and courtyard are also self-aware, whether they should say or not, whether they should listen or not, they are all measured, and they don't need Su Dingyuan to say more, and they will maintain a silent attitude towards this matter.
As for the fifth aunt, it can only be said that her face is thin. Yesterday, under the persecution of the form, Su Dingshan had to break his wrist as a strong man, and after making a fuss all night, the ladies and maids were also tired, so they dispersed one after another. This time, something happened again.
The fifth aunt couldn't think about being alone that night, and a white silk hanged herself by hanging from a beam. By the time the maid found out, his body was already cold.
The death of the fifth aunt has a great impact on everyone, and the gossip in the house is very loud. Su Dingyuan, who thought that things had been settled, was furious and randomly punished a few mouth-chewing maids and wives to set an example. The effect is not bad, at least the ears are clean, and no one says no.
And the main courtyard where the accident happened is still calm, as usual. I heard that Su Zijin was unwilling to interfere and handed over Su Dingyuan to handle this matter. The matter between women is too complicated, and Su Dingyuan can't come forward in some aspects, so he let his third lady take full authority to deal with this matter.
The third lady is also very sophisticated, and she handles things neatly and neatly, without dragging her feet at all. She went through the whole thing in her mind, made a decision immediately, and ordered someone to send the body of the fifth aunt back to her hometown as soon as possible, only claiming that the fifth aunt died suddenly because of a violent illness. In private, she sent a considerable amount of silver to the relatives of the fifth aunt, and finally sent her cronies to express condolences to the fifth aunt on her behalf.
Su Ruoyun was also full of emotion when she heard this. The new official took office three times, and he was eager to show himself when he came up, and he was most afraid that he would fall short, and he didn't know how long the third lady's motivation could last?
People's hearts are so terrible, the events of the first few days were forgotten by the world in the blink of an eye.
The third lady sat firmly in the position of the head of the family and got what she wanted, but Su Ruoyun became more and more anxious, and only urged Hongyue to increase the dose of medicine for herself. Only when his body is weak enough can he escape Su Dingyuan's punishment, and his plan can succeed.
Now Su Ruoyun's face is as pale as a piece of rice paper, her body is soft and boneless, and the weak villain seems to be able to blow away at any time as soon as the wind blows.
She sat in the yard, basking in the sun. Hongyue went out to inquire about the news and has not returned yet, so Cui'er went out to get a meal for herself. One person enjoys the quiet, the sun shines on her face, and everything seems so quiet and harmonious. The loss of her mother was not reflected on her face at all.
The days in the house are like flowing water, and the ladies in the few rooms are all safe, and they have not made any big moves.
On the other side, the third lady was lying on the soft couch of the concubine, watching the maidservant paint her nails with danko. No, it's time to change your voice and call the mistress.
"Alas, every day this day, there are a bunch of broken things in the house, and I feel upset when I look at it." The third lady couldn't stop complaining to her maidservant, but she couldn't hide the pride in her words.
"Master, you are now the head of the Su Mansion. The queen and the lord trust you, and leave all the affairs in the palace to you with full authority, but you can't bother more. Ah, hey, look, master, your eyes are swollen, you must have been busy these days and haven't slept well! The little girl knelt beside her, smiling sweeter than a flower. In the end, she still looked at her master's eyes with a distressed face, wishing that she would suffer for her.
"Why is it not serious for you girl to say something, hehe." The third lady pretended to be disgusted, but her heart was happy. Her hand touched the corner of her eye, and she asked with some concern, "Is it really swollen?" ”
When the little girl heard the third lady's question, she hurriedly knelt down, and while slapping herself, she cried and said, "Why can't the slave and maid speak so much, please don't blame the master." ”
Seeing this, the third lady just stretched out her hand to help her weakly, her body was still lazily looking at the chaise longue, and her tone was full of reproach: "You are to blame, am I so terrible?" Let you slap your mouth at every turn? ”
The little girl shook her head and smiled brightly at the third lady: "Our housewife is the best housewife in the world!" ”
The master and servant laughed and joked with each other, and the atmosphere in the room was also warm. After chatting for a while, the third lady suddenly remembered Su Ruoyun. She was able to be the head of the family, and Su Ruoyun made a lot of efforts behind the scenes. Since the fifth aunt's accident, Su Ruoyun has never sent anyone over, and she herself was busy consolidating her position, so she forgot to go to Su Ruoyun.
"Chun'er, if you're free today, let's go to the Sixth Lady's Fuyun Pavilion and have a look." As soon as the words fell, the third lady got up and straightened her clothes.
Chun'er on the side was clever, stuck to her and said, "The housemother is good-looking no matter what." ”
The third lady only smiled and didn't speak, stretched out her hand for Chun'er to support, and took a proud little step, leading a group of maidservants to Fuyun Pavilion.
As soon as the third lady walked to the small garden, she saw the seventh aunt He Yan, who was sitting by the lake feeding the fish, and there was only one maid by her side.
Hooking the corners of her lips and smiling, the third lady turned a corner and walked straight towards He Yan.
"Yo, isn't this the seventh sister, it's a cold day, why are you sitting here alone, lonely, I feel distressed when I see my sister."
He Yan stood up when she heard this, her big eyes had already lost their previous brilliance, she only stared at the third lady silently, and did not reply to her words.
After all, there is a vixen, who is pretending to be pitiful here? The third lady also knew that the down-and-out dog couldn't be forced, and maybe he would jump over the wall and bite someone.
But she is now the head of the family, and she has great power in the house, and she can cure this slut in front of her with just one crime. When she was favored before, she was pampered and arrogant, but she never gave her a look.
Thinking about it, the third lady turned her head to Chun'er and asked pretending not to understand: "Chun'er, if I'm not mistaken, the hierarchical rules of our Great Liang Country are very strict, even if you are the head of the family, you can be regarded as half a master, right?" ”
