Chapter 67: Ginger is still old and spicy

When the seventh aunt saw that the 'daughter' was being trained, she also hurriedly took two steps and one step, rushed forward, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "The old lady is clear, I have been with Qingyin just now, and she definitely did not tell Ying'er to do such a thing that hurts others and is not beneficial to herself. ”

"Hehe," said the grandmother, laughing in a low voice again, her tone inaudible as calm as if she were gossiping with someone else's house, "the master of the courtyard and the people are all in the courtyard, waiting to greet your mother." Only your excuse to take some gouache to make Ying'er disappear for a long time. Now that you have a witness, do you still have to quibble? ”

Ying'er trembled in fear, and her mouth was not neatly spoken, and she stumbled in defense: "Old ...... Madam, the slave is a real ...... Wronged, although I delayed the time back and forth, it was a red gold lotus agate that the young lady specially ordered me to take, and I forgot to put it in front of the dresser, and tossed in front of the dresser for a long time. The girls in the Splendid Garden can all testify. ”

Qingyin looked aggrieved, but she didn't dare to look directly into her grandmother's eyes, so she only lowered her head to justify: "I'm afraid that someone can't see the granddaughter' well, so they deliberately planted it for me." That little girl was also supported by someone, and asked her grandmother not to be biased, she was 'blinded'. ”

The little girl in front of her mother made tea, handed it over tremblingly, and her grandmother took it in her hand, opened the blue 'flower' porcelain lid, and gently 'made' the foam on the tea, as if she said casually:

As soon as the girl who watched the cat said that she was going to be punished, she immediately broke her guts, but her brain was much better, and she obediently recruited her. It seems that this method still works, and it saves me a lot of saliva. Why don't I try again, what if it works again? ”

Seventh aunt, Qingyin and Ying'er were shocked, their faces were full of horror, and they all 'interceded' and shouted for mercy. Qingyin's sideburns are crooked, tears are added, the fat powder is messy, and her face is as if she has opened a dyeing shop.

Ying'er even swore by gambling and swearing, and did not hesitate to curse viciously to prove her innocence.

Although the onlookers were a little unbearable, more of them gloated, only stood by and watched, and no one opened their mouths to intercede for them.

Qingyin suddenly seemed to remember something, took two steps forward excitedly, and shouted excitedly at her grandmother: "Grandmother, have you forgotten that last time Ying'er had a conflict with Qinglian and slapped her by mistake." You said that she was a bully, and she committed the following crimes, and ordered someone to take Ying'er's hand away.

Now although her hands can grasp and hold, and she is recovering well, she is very clumsy, she can't hold very small and delicate things, she can't hold them steadily, and she can't use needles at all! ”

It was too late for Aunt Seven to stop her, and her face instantly turned pale.

Grandmother threw the tea cup in her hand on the ground in front of Qing Yin, making a very crisp cracking sound, broken porcelain splashed everywhere, and the tea spilled on the ground.

"I only said that the 'Bo' cat was made by someone, how could I have said that it was pierced with an embroidery needle? Do you still want to quibble now? Do you have to let me help you remember? ”

Qing Yin woke up in an instant, she had missed a word, irrefutable, her face was like earth for a while, she was paralyzed on the ground, her voice was dumb, and she couldn't speak.

"If you don't see the coffin, you won't cry, Aunt Seven, won't you recruit either?" The grandmother said in a fierce voice: "What did the girl do, you must know better than anyone else, right?" ”

The girl standing behind the seventh aunt had been hanging her head all the time, trembling, she couldn't support it anymore when she heard the words, and knelt on the ground with a "plop" sound, kowtowing like pounding garlic:

"Old lady, spare your life, don't do the slave maid's business, it was the seventh aunt who instructed the slave maid to do it, and I was forced to do it!"

Grandmother smiled coldly, as if squeezing out a few words from between her teeth: "Recruit from the truth, spare you from death." ”

The little girl timidly glanced at Aunt Seven, plucked up her courage, and said in a trembling voice:

"Aunt Seven sent me to urge Ying'er under the pretext of letting me take advantage of people's inattention, go around to the back of the wing, find a way to branch the little girl, and then turn into the house through the back window, and prick a few embroidered 'flower' needles into the tanuki. and then threw it into the courtyard from the crack of the 'door' to create panic and 'chaos', scaring Miss Qingqing and making her lose her demeanor in front of the people in the Hou Ye's Mansion. The slave swore that this was the first time I had done such a bad thing, and begged the old lady for mercy. ”

Everyone suddenly realized that it was really the hands and feet of the seventh aunt.

The seventh aunt understood that the matter could no longer be hidden, so she glared at the girl viciously, and had to confess truthfully:

"The old lady spares her life, this is all the idea of the slave, it has nothing to do with Qingyin, if you are angry, punish me, I will be beaten and scolded, and I am willing to bear it." Qingyin has just recovered from a serious illness and cannot be punished. ”

Grandmother closed her eyes tiredly and leaned back in her chair: "Old Seven, how do you let me say that you are good?" Some time ago, I heard that Qingyin's 'sex' has changed a lot, and I was relieved for a long time, thinking that I was finally sensible.

But look at you, what have you taught her these days? Every day, like a clown jumping off the beam, jumping up and down. I can't help but want to talk about you. But you're so old, why don't you know the merits of black and white, and you don't know what to do. It's a good child, it's a waste to follow you. ”

The seventh aunt cried bitterly, looked like she had suddenly woken up, prostrate at her grandmother's feet, and begged her grandmother again and again, for the sake of Qingwan's face, she would forgive them for the time being.

Grandmother sighed weakly:

"If it's some clever means, forget it, and let me look up to you. But these clumsy tricks, who can't understand the old people in this house? It's just your own cleverness.

From today on, without the permission of the eldest lady, you are not allowed to see Qingyin in private. You will be punished to go to your mother-in-law to get fifteen boards for yourself, and then go back to the courtyard to recuperate from your injuries, and you are not allowed to step out of the courtyard for half a step.

As for Qingyin, you give me to kneel in the ancestral hall for two days, and copy the family rules and ancestral precepts of my Su family on the wall a hundred times until I repent.

You don't ask for forgiveness, if it weren't for the people from the Hou Ye's Mansion here, who saved enough face for you, they would definitely not spare you so easily. ”

This time, Aunt Seventh and Qingyin both learned to be obedient, and they didn't dare to say more, so they knelt on the ground against their will and kowtowed to thank them.

Grandmother waved wearily at Aunt Seven, impatient as if she were banishing a noisy fly. Later, as if he suddenly remembered something, he told Aunt Seven to stay for the time being, so that we all dispersed.

As soon as the farce came to an end, the curtain came to an end.

I was stunned. Such an incomprehensible game of secret hands and feet, my grandmother gave a clear understanding of three strokes and five divided by two, no wonder the people in the house would be so in awe of her, I was really taught.

Turning her head to see the girl in front of her mother who was responsible for taking care of Xueqiu, she was still taken down by her mother-in-law to receive the punishment. However, the punishment is lighter, which is a charge of negligence.

Thinking about it this way, the girl should have seen nothing, it was the two mothers-in-law in front of her grandmother, who dragged her out of the yard under the pretext of the execution, and whispered to her to be taught. She pointed out that Ying'er had actually wronged Ying'er, if it weren't for her grandmother's instructions, the crime of 'indiscriminately' framing would have been big, how could she be so lenient?

Grandmother is really good, she had long expected that this matter was the calculation of Aunt Qi and Qingyin, but she was suffering from empty words, so she simply calculated it, took advantage of the disability of Ying'er's hand, deliberately 'provoked' the general, and deceived the truth.

If Qingyin is smarter and refuses to confess, anyway, with that little girl to testify, it will be easy to convict Aunt Seven.

The real turning hand is the cloud, the hand is the rain, if you don't accept it, the ginger is really old and spicy.

However, when she did this, it can be said that she slapped Qingwan's face in the Hou Ye's Mansion naked. Grandmother is a person who thinks about the big picture, and she will not fail to understand the pros and cons. There must be a reason for the incident, could it be that Sister Qingwan provoked her grandmother, and her grandmother deliberately gave her a dismount?

My suspicions were immediately confirmed.

After breakfast, not long after, my grandmother and mother's bounty were sent to the courtyard one after another, and everyone was respectful, no longer as they had been some time ago, although they no longer pointed fingers, but their eyes were full of contempt and disdain.

The things that were given were nothing more than gold, silver, jewelry, hairpins, and ornaments, which should not be eaten or drunk. However, my grandmother was also generous this time, and even pressed a bunch of silver tickets in the sandalwood box, and she was a little "obsessed" with wealth, and she counted it repeatedly, and there were 5,000 taels!

I swear, I've never seen so many silver tickets when I'm so old, and it's fake to say no surprise, but more than that, surprise.

Last time, I was wronged, and the truth has not yet been investigated, even though my mother no longer suspects that it is my hands and feet in 'private', but in front of everyone in the house, I am still waiting for sin, why is it that today I am so openly rewarded with things, and I do not shy away from it.

What surprised me even more was that it was still to come, and when it was close to noon, the gifts from various courtyards were sent in one after another, including the second lady, the fourth aunt, the sixth aunt, and the tenth aunt, all of whom said that they were thanking me for the tea ceremony I gave them before going to the Fuhua Nunnery. Although it is not very expensive, it can also be seen that it has been carefully selected, and the gift-giving knowledge is everywhere.

For a while, my small courtyard, which had been quiet for a long time, was particularly lively. Xuan'er and the others were busy entertaining and thanking each other, registering in the warehouse, and didn't bother to eat lunch.

I was too lazy to deal with this kind of scene, and I couldn't refute the faces of the aunts. After exchanging a few words with the leading maid, he hid in the house, greedy for peace.

I looked under my window a few times, and I knew that she must have something to do with me, so I beckoned to her and told her to bring me a plate of sour plums.

I leaned over, she handed me the plate, and whispered to me, "Miss, the notebook under the 'flower' shelf is missing." ”

I couldn't help but be surprised, and when I looked up, sure enough, the chaise longue was empty.

"Do you know when you disappeared, and who got close there?"

Xiao Shan shook his head: "There are still ones when I get up in the morning, and there is 'dew' on them." This morning, the yard was like a marquee, and it was too busy with people, and I was so busy that I disappeared if I wasn't paying attention. ”

I nodded, and told her not to mention it again, just don't take it to heart, and secretly pay attention to whether there is anything unusual in the house.

Originally, Wisteria Xiaozhu has been heavily defended in recent days, and that person can't steal, so I'm already planning to give up and not report any hope. Unexpectedly, the willow was dark, and the helpers in his house took advantage of the 'chaos'. It's okay to find out one of his comrades again. It's not in vain that I've put a lot of effort into it.
