Chapter 29 Taking advantage of the situation (three watches)

Jiang Xinyu saw the Gu family and asked why the Sun family didn't let her go out. Xin Yu replied with a stiff smile.

"The mother-in-law said, what is there to go outside? Don't look at the people who are respectful to you on your face, and you don't know how to talk about it behind your back, Jinghui's disease is forced out by those who have no virtue in their mouths, and the people of the Sun family, why bother to be embarrassed outside. ”

Chen didn't have time to think deeply, sighed and said: "My mother-in-law was also forced to do this, this is fate." Son, you have to accept your fate. Fortunately, they treat you well, so I can rest assured. ”

After thinking about it, Gu knew that the wife of the Sun family could be such a kind person, but she was just guarding against Xinyu, a stupid child. A woman in the boudoir has seen a lot of the world and has a wide range of contacts, so it is difficult to guarantee that she will not have other thoughts.

Gu Shi was stunned, and said seriously: "Second Miss, have you ever thought about taking a child from the clan and raising it by your side, when you are old, you can have a support." ”

Jiang Xinyu's face was sad: "Why don't you want to?" But Jinghui said, what can the child do if he follows him? It's better not to. ”

Gu Shi asked rhetorically: "What about you, do you only listen to him?" ”

"Auntie, what if I don't listen to him? He's such a person, why should I fight with him, he doesn't want it, so don't give up. It is better to be pure. ”

Gu Shi sighed: "You are still young, there are still decades left, how can you survive!" ”

Jiang Xinyu's eyes were not very turbulent.

"What's not to boil? In addition to not being able to go out, who else in the house dares to give me a look? It is better to live a comfortable life like this than to calculate this and that. Those wives, grandmothers, which one is not for a man to take a concubine today, Ming'er sleeps in a room and is jealous, making a lot of trouble, for where men sleep at night, who can quarrel for a long time. Those concubines used all kinds of means to get through the room. Thousands of tricks to compete for favor and calculation, but for a set of noodles and a few new clothes. Although I am married to an unbearable person, I am in this courtyard. As far as I am a grandmother in the main house, Sun Fu should give me a lot, not a hundred times stronger than those who smile like a flower on their faces and are bitter like yellow lotus in their hearts? And it was clean. ”

Tears flashed in Jiang Xinyu's eyes, and she choked up: "Besides, it's really good outside?" Flattering you in front of you, chewing your tongue behind your back, what is difficult to hear, why do I bother to get up in front of me. When people laugh and talk? Mother-in-law said that Jinghui just cares too much about what others say, so he ended up like this. ”

Two concubines, you look at me, I look at you, I didn't expect the always gentle second lady at all. When you say such a clear word, it's better not to answer for a while.

After a moment of silence, Chen said quietly: "If you feel good, the house will be at ease." As long as you always have a letter to us, your father and I will have nothing to ask for. Your father doesn't say it, but he thinks about it in his heart. Aunt Du has been looking forward to your letter all day since you went out. I can't wait, people are getting older, you don't care about me, you have to think about her. ”

Jiang Xinyu's tears that had just stopped fell again, and she took out a stack of silver tickets from her sleeve. handed it to Chen and said, "Mother, this is what I have saved in the past few years, please pass it on to my aunt and let her keep it." Don't worry about me. ”

Chen took the silver ticket and sighed: "Don't worry, I'll give it to her when I turn around." ”

Xinyu put away her tears, and asked about the other people in the house, and when she talked about the fourth lady, Xinyu's eyes lit up and asked a few more questions. When she heard that Aunt Zhou was banned, Jiang Xinyu sneered twice and only said, "It should have been like this a long time ago." ”

After eating lunch in the courtyard of the second lady, and saying some thoughtful words, Chen's and Gu's got up and went home.

……

The two concubines went back to the house, and first went to the old lady to reply, and the old lady listened, shed a few tears, and only said: "So, it's good!" This girl, if she can think like this, it can be seen that she is transparent. The Buddhist scriptures of that half a year were not copied in vain. ”

Chen was disdainful in his heart, and exhaled two breaths of cold air from his nose. went back to the room, called Aunt Du to her, explained in detail the process of meeting the second lady, and handed her two thousand taels of silver. Then he said: "You, just worry too much, I will say, she is a blessed person, and her life is very comfortable." ”

Aunt Du had red eyes, thanked the eldest wife, returned to the room, closed the door, and cried.

After Chen waited for Du to leave, she couldn't help but think of such a comfortable life for her concubine, she was afraid that she would not be able to live a day. quarreling with the eldest master, fighting and fighting, rectifying a bunch of concubines in the backyard, teasing and teasing Sister Lan, such a day is the only way to live a personal life.

Hey, in the end, it's the same life, she's just a hard life, and she can't enjoy the blessings.

After Xin Yao learned the news of the second sister from her mother, she sighed to Li's mother: "When the second sister said something like that, it is not transparent. A truly transparent person, why should he use words to support himself. ”

Mother Li approached and said: "In the end, it's been a few years, and I'll know it when the days go by." ”

The master and servant sighed in unison, and Mother Li couldn't help but smile: "Miss, I've been sighing more and more times lately, young people, what are you sighing?" I sighed away all the blessings. ”

"I'm sighing, when will Uncle go back to the south? It's a little noisy every day, and a big fuss every three days, and it's unbearable. ”

It turned out that Jiang Hongjian and the Chen family lived in the West Garden, and the six concubines were placed behind the East Garden, which was not too far from Xin Yao's courtyard.

There are many women, there are many unnatural, except for the older Aunt Du who waits in front of the eldest lady and never says much, the other few are smeared with grease and powder all day long, wearing gold and silver, either you are puzzled that I have more money from the eldest master, or I suspect that you chewed your tongue in front of the eldest lady, and the yin damage made it bad.

In Xin Yao's opinion, it is nothing more than a trivial matter, but when it comes to their mouths, it has become a major matter of human life and burning eyebrows, which has made Xin Yao sleep unsteadily every night for the past few days. The strange aunt scolded people very well, it turned out that this was how she practiced it, and Xin Yao, who was used to being quiet, suddenly expressed deep sympathy for the situation of the Chen family's long-term fight with the concubine.

If she knew that the Chen family had a way to deal with the eldest lord's concubine, it was just that she didn't have any pastime every day, and she didn't spend money to watch the drama in vain. The most important thing is that Chen is the behind-the-scenes director of these scenes, which one to hold and which one to step on, it is all in her thoughts, as long as she "clicks", the play will naturally end. Then, the object of Xin Yao's sympathy is not the Chen family, but those concubines.

Li's mother said, "What does Miss do with those people?" The whole master sent two messages, and the young lady still planned it. ”

Xin Yao said with a headache: "Mom, how many people are there in the house now, and my mother can't be busy alone, where is there time to run outside?" I just wish I was a man, so I didn't have to be trapped in this little world. ”

"Can't you go and ask the second wife again?"

"I can't go, the matter of Jinjue Pavilion last time was too big, the old lady didn't say it, and it was hard to guarantee that she wouldn't pay more attention to it, so let's act more carefully in the future." Something happened to me, it didn't matter, I couldn't affect my mother. In this way, I wrote a letter, and my mother helped me send it to Yiyuan, so that they could do what the letter said, and when the warbler returned to go back, I had already told her, everything was ready, and now the east wind has it, even without me, it can be done. ”

Li's mother had no choice but to say, "That's the only way." ”

……

At this side, Xin Yao was worried that she couldn't get out of the house, and the Xu family was also worried about the second wife and the fourth lady of the Jiang Mansion not going out of the house.

After staring at it for a few months, there was no movement at all, isn't it a person who is in a hurry? As the saying goes, catch the thief and catch the dirty, catch the adulterer and catch the double, there are many people in and out of the Jinjue Pavilion, and they are all rich and noble people, but the adulteress doesn't even go out of the house, where can she go to catch the adulterer and catch the double, there is no evidence!

The people who went to the south to inquire have not yet returned, and the silver of the white flowers has been washed away like this, and there is not even a sound, daughter, daughter, it is difficult for my mother to me!

……

In the Yiyuan Warm Pavilion, Xu Hongyuan, who was dressed in plain clothes, handed Xin Yao's letter to Yan Sixteen, raised his eyebrows, and motioned for him to look.

Yan Sixteen had just returned to Beijing from the northwest, and he had lost a lot of weight, so he took the letter suspiciously, read it roughly, and said, "Ah Yuan, why is the fourth lady looking for me?" ”

Xu Hongyuan said truthfully: "In order to borrow your power, the sixth prince." ”

"Did she guess who I am?"

"I guessed it or not, I don't know, with her cleverness, eight or nine are not far from ten."

"In order to borrow my momentum, give me a quarter of Yiyuan?"

"It's not a quarter of Yiyuan, but a quarter of the profit that you will be given every year, and the extra 40,000 taels of silver you spent in Jinjue Pavilion at the beginning will be counted as the capital of your shares."

"This fourth young lady is very calculating. Ah Yuan, even if she doesn't give it to me, I'm just as willing to protect you. ”

"Two different things, do you just say you want it?"

"Yes, yes, someone sent me money to spend, how could I not want it. It's just that what kind of trouble is she going to make? ”

"You don't have to worry about this, in the future, as long as you arrange everything in Yiyuan, you will know it slowly!"

"Isn't it just eating and talking? What's so hard about that? But can you really make money like this? ”

"You, you are good at fighting, killing and killing, and when it comes to doing business, you are far inferior to Xin Yao. To be honest, I haven't figured out what she's going to do, but I know that she bought 500 acres of land outside the city, and raised it all chickens and fish. ”

"Come on, my master, is it better to be a young lady in the boudoir, she is not afraid, what am I afraid of? Let's go, go around from the homeland, and greet the two guys by the way. ”

Yan Sixteen and Xu Hongyuan walked around the garden for a long time, and Yan Sixteen sighed: "Ah Yuan, why don't I move to Yiyuan to live." The garden of the capital, the atmosphere is rich, the exquisite and small, the golden and splendid, such a casual and chic garden, I have not seen it in the capital. ”

Xu Hongyuan smiled deeply: "I will give you a taste of Yiyuan's food, and then you speak." ”

"Young Master Yan, Little Master, Young Master Du and Young Master Xiao are already waiting in the main hall."

Xu Hongyuan's face was overjoyed, and he said with a smile, "Master Quan, let's have a meal, it's in the warm pavilion by the lake." ”(..)
