Chapter 17 There are difficulties

In the last book, it was said that Xin Yao suggested that Gu go directly to the Sun Mansion to find Jiang Xinyu.

Gu Shi sighed slightly and said, "It can only be like this." ”

……

Three days later, the Feng family's carriage arrived at the Jiang Mansion early.

Jiang Xinshan, Jiang Xinyao dressed up properly, took their respective maids, and went to Feng's mansion.

At sunset, the sisters returned to the Jiang Mansion exhausted, and the old lady asked a few words about the situation in the Feng Mansion with great interest.

Jiang Xinshan said with a smile: "Grandmother, the eldest sister has a very good life, her children are smart and clever, and everyone in the house treats us very politely. ”

"Is your brother-in-law here?"

"Yes, my brother-in-law brought three or five friends to drink in the front yard today, I heard that they are all young talents, and my fourth sister and I played in the garden for an hour, and most of the time was in my sister's yard. The eldest sister is amazing, those housekeepers, and the mother-in-law listens to her. Although the garden of Fengfu is not as big as our house, it is also small and exquisite, and the eldest sister said that when the weather is cooler, please ask the old lady to come to the house to get together! ”

Jiang Xinyao looked at the expression of the third lady who sang well, and turned around to drink tea.

The old lady smiled: "I want to walk around, but I am afraid that the old woman will be disgusted." ”

Jiang Xinshan said angrily: "How can grandmother be disgusted? Please don't even come. Mrs. Feng specially sent someone to ask her grandmother about her body, so that we could just tell her what we wanted to eat and drink! ”

The old lady smiled so much that she couldn't see her eyes, and said, "I'll just say that the eldest lady is blessed, and you should have the blessing of the eldest lady." Let's go back, I'm tired of the day. ”

Jiang Xinyao had already been impatient with listening, saluted the old lady, and returned to listen to Fengxuan. As soon as I arrived in the room, I was crooked on the bamboo collapse, not wanting to move.

The light clouds and the light moon came up.

Weiyun smiled: "Miss, are you having fun in the eldest lady's mansion today?" How tired to be like this. ”

Yinggui waved his hand, signaled Weiyun to draw water, and stepped forward by himself. The waitress took off her coat. Weiyun fetched water to help the young lady clean her face, and Danyue brought a bowl of sour plum soup and handed it to the young lady.

Xin Yao drank in one gulp, and then she felt comfortable. sighed: "It's better to be at home."

Yinggui said: "I was at the old lady's place just now, why didn't the young lady speak?" It's really annoying for the third lady to talk nonsense. ”

Xin Yao said lazily: "What I say, you will believe it as an old lady." Go down, let me rest, and call me again for dinner. ”

Ying returned and said, "Miss, I'll help you hammer it." ”

"No, just lie down for a while."

The girls gently covered the door, stood outside, and began to needlework.

Weiyun said lightly: "Who did Sister Yinggui just talk to?" Miss is a guest at Feng's Mansion today. Why is the white hosta on the head missing? The bracelet on my hand is also gone, and when I went out, I obviously helped the young lady put it on with my own hands. ”

Danyue also said: "Sister Yinggui, tell me quickly, what's wrong?" ”

Yinggui thought that he couldn't stay in this courtyard for a few days. Danyue, Weiyun and the two are used by the young lady, and there are some things that don't need to be hidden, so she said, "Don't mention it." ”

Weiyun got up and poured a cup of warm tea, and Yinggui took the teacup and drank it all.

"Today, Miss and I are guests at the Feng Mansion. At first, it was good to sit and talk in the courtyard of the eldest lady, but the third lady had to go to the garden to take a look. In the garden, I met a few young ladies in the Feng Mansion who had not gone out, and I couldn't tell the difference between the concubines and the concubines, and the young ladies patiently accompanied and laughed for a morning. It's easy to get lunch. The eldest aunt's sister-in-law took her two daughters back to her parents' house, came uninvited, and had dinner with the eldest lady and them in the eldest lady's courtyard.

I've never seen a shallow-eyed lady like Miss Gu, staring at the third lady at a meal. The jewelry on the fourth lady asked about the east and west, and praised the third miss like a flower, and the third miss was happy, and gave all the things on her body to her two children, saying that it was a meeting gift.

Seeing that our young lady was silent, Miss Gu bluntly said that she wanted to change the hairpin on her head with Miss and wear it. You know the temper of the young lady, if it is a person who is pleasing to the eye, it is defenseless to give it away in vain, Miss Nagu said, the hairpin on her head is worth a lot of money, as if our young lady took advantage of her. I bah, I don't pee and take pictures, a silver hairpin for a few taels of silver, not even a beaded flower, it's worth a fart money, it's really funny. ”

Danyue couldn't help but squirt: "This Feng Mansion is also out of order, where does it look like a big family?" If I were here, I'd spit on her. ”

Yinggui continued: "Who said it wasn't? You don't see it, the eldest lady's face is blue for a while, white for a while, and ugly and tight. The three young ladies were fanning the flames on the side, and they were mocking our young ladies for being stingy. Fortunately, the young lady had an idea, took off the white hosta, and gave the emerald bracelet in her hand to the eldest lady's daughter, Sister Lian'er, only saying that she came in a hurry today, and she didn't even bring a gift, which would make up for her niece. ”

Danyue said: "The table is ready, one for each of the two children, or I chose it myself!" ”

Ying returned and said: "I gave it away as soon as we met, and I secretly gave it to the third lady behind my back." Miss Nagu still didn't give up, why didn't she give her two children a gift. The young lady drank tea by herself, pretending not to hear, which made the young lady very angry. ”

Danyue said angrily: "It's really a bully, it's strange that Miss Dao's face is not good-looking." ”

"The angry people are still to come, our third lady pretended to be surprised and said that the gift was not given early in the morning? Why do you have to give two copies? Tell me, whether you are angry or not, isn't this a stumbling block for the young lady? ”

"It's okay to make a stumbling block at home, and it's so unimportant outside." When Weiyun heard that the young lady was being bullied, her face showed a little anger.

"Who's to say it's not?"

Yinggui sneezed, stroked her sour nose and said: "Fortunately, Miss is clever, and she replied, 'Third sister, one inkstone, a few pieces of dim sum can also be called a courtesy, our Jiang Mansion doesn't have this rule', which blocked the third lady's mouth." Speaking of which, thanks to Danyue, there are two unworthy gifts on the surface, but they are all good things in private. ”

Danyue smiled: "That's what Miss ordered, where can I be the master." ”

"Sister Yinggui, Miss Nagu, don't hate our young lady to death." Micro Cloud Road.

"Isn't it, except for laughing at the third lady at a meal, he doesn't look at our young lady squarely. It was the eldest lady who lost a lot of smiles in private, returned to the room, and complained to the young lady. Sister Lian got something, so she was naturally happy, and pestered Miss to play for an afternoon. Miss has always loved children, so she is tired! ”

Weiyun said: "What about the third young lady?" ”

"Don't mention it, follow Miss Gu to enjoy the flowers in the garden."

Danyue chirped: "On a hot day, what kind of flowers do you enjoy?" The sun is all sunburned. ”

"I don't know. I only follow the young lady, who is impatient to meddle with her business. ”

Danyue said coldly: "I don't do anything good." That Feng Mansion is also said to be a rich and noble family, and there is too much gold and silver in the family to count, how can the young lady who was raised look like this, if Sister Yinggui didn't see it with her own eyes, she wouldn't dare to believe it. ”

"Isn't it, I heard the eldest lady say that Miss Gu's mother-in-law's family has fallen, and the man is gambling outside to raise a prostitute. She doesn't do her job all day long, and Miss Gu has a hard time, so she often comes back with her two children to fight the autumn breeze. It was fine at first, but after a long time, it became like this. ”

Weiyun said: "There is such a sister-in-law. The eldest lady is not having a good time either. ”

"That's right, I can't say it, I can't scold it, I have to eat and drink it. The eldest lady is very quiet on weekdays, and she doesn't wear the beads, and she doesn't wear the green ones, so she is afraid that her sister-in-law will see her and want to go. Miscellaneous. I look fine. ”

Danyue sighed: "It's really the same life, the eldest lady has already calculated it like this." Listening to Chunlan, the second wife went to Sun's Mansion yesterday, and she didn't even see the second lady's face, saying that she went to escape the summer, and she didn't know if it was true or not. ”

Weiyun said: "Second Miss is really pitiful. At the same age, marrying into such a family, wealth is wealth, but this day is really difficult......"

Jiang Xinyao was in the room, her eyes closed. Intermittent listening is clear.

Mother said that no one can live a smooth life, there are always bad things, bad people waiting for you. Whether it's the eldest sister or the second sister, it's herself, so why not have a smooth ride?

Jiang Xinyao thought of the mean-looking Miss Gu, and she was excited, not wanting to think about it more, and fell asleep after a while.

……

A few maids in this compartment were talking about the affairs of the eldest lady's family, and Jiang Xinqiong in the compartment had just listened to the reply of the next person, and secretly sulked.

This eldest sister-in-law, knowing that there are male guests in the garden, still ran there with her third sister, you are a woman, but the third sister is a young lady who has not left the pavilion, and when she saw it to outsiders, she thought that the rules of the Jiang Mansion were nothing more than that.

Besides, the third sister didn't understand the rules of being a guest at all, and a few words of flattery left her sister behind, and ran into the garden with an outsider, which was too reckless. I don't know how the old lady disciplined her, and it was strange that my mother couldn't get used to Aunt Zhou's mother and daughter, and if she changed her, she couldn't look down on her.

Jiang Xinqiong originally thought that they were all sisters, they were in the same capital, and they had a support for each other. Unexpectedly, after all these years, the third sister's temperament has not changed at all, and it will be good to go out in the future.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xinqiong laughed self-deprecatingly, that's it, that's it, what's this annoying thing for her.

……

Early this morning, Yan Ming went to Jiang's mansion to ask to see the second wife, saying that Yinggui was old and wanted to get rid of slavery.

Gu replied to the old lady, and the old lady was impatient to listen to these things, so she let the second lady make up her own mind.

The Gu family responded and asked Yan Ming to come back tomorrow to lead people.

Not long after, the news of Ying's return out of the mansion spread all over the Jiang Mansion, and there was a cry in Fengxuan.

Xin Yao suddenly remembered Dongmei. When Dongmei went out, it was the same situation, the past was like smoke, and the warbler returned to the capital for seventeen in a flash, Xin Yao had mixed feelings and was depressed.

In the evening, in the courtyard of Tingfeng Xuan, two tables of banquets were set up for Yinggui to see him off.

During the banquet, Chunlan from Qiushui Courtyard sent a hundred taels of silver and a few new clothes prepared by the second wife, drank a few glasses of water and wine, and left after talking.

The third master even ran over in person, and after a long sigh at Xin Yao, he gave Yinggui a few pieces of jewelry, and returned to the house sullenly, thinking that there would be no one to appease his stomach in the future, and he didn't dare to work on his sister's drive, so angry that he took the sword sent by Brother Shen, danced wildly, and stopped in the middle of the night.

At night, Yinggui called Weiyun and Danyue to the lady's study, and the three of them chatted until late at night before falling asleep.

On the second day, when the sky was slightly bright, a carriage stopped at the back door of Jiang's mansion, and after a while, a woman in Tsing Yi carried a burden, flashed out of the door, got into the carriage, and went all the way to the east.

After the warbler returned to the house, Qingxu and Bi Moss rose to the top of the big girl, and waited for the young lady's food, clothing, housing and transportation with Danyue and Weiyun, only some secret things, Xinyao still only discussed with Li's mother, Danyue, and Weiyun. (..)
