Chapter 149: Throwing a tantrum
You can't go, you have to make it clear. Cheng Yuanniang stepped forward and grabbed Han Xiao's arm, looking very excited.
Han Xiao frowned and said, "I have already made my words clear." ”
"What's wrong with me, you're going to do this to me." Cheng Yuanniang cried, and the unwillingness in her heart shouted out.
She was born in a famous family, and she is a famous matchmaker, who is marrying into the palace as a princess.
As a result, what did Han Xiao do to her. The first year I didn't come to her on Chinese New Year's Eve, and then I was snubbed. Now I want to accept the side concubine again, one by one, how can I put her as a concubine in my eyes.
"You're good." Han Xiao said bluntly: "It's just that I don't like it." ”
Cheng Yuanniang froze on the spot, and originally held Han Xiao's hand, but she also fell down because she was at a loss.
"See you another day." Han Xiao said, shaking his hand and leaving.
Until Han Xiao walked out of the door, Cheng Yuanniang was still standing in a daze.
The girls and mothers-in-law were all around, but none of them just spoke out, they were all scared. Cheng Yuanniang has always had a bad personality because of falling out of favor, and now Han Xiao is using such a critical attack, I'm afraid it's ......
"Why, why!!"
Cheng Yuanniang suddenly roared, and the girl-in-law was startled, and subconsciously wanted to retreat.
"Why, why !!"
Cheng Yuanniang's screams became louder and louder, grabbed the things on the table and fell.
This is not the first time, Cheng Yuanniang lost her temper and threw things, and the girl-in-law didn't dare to say much, so she just quietly withdrew, so as not to be affected by the pond fish.
The big girl embroidered beads with a heart, and hurriedly sent someone to find Zhou Xi's family.
Persuading Cheng Yuanniang is part of it, and there is also the fact that Han Xiao has to think of a countermeasure for such a big thing as accepting a side concubine.
There was such a mess in the main room, and the brother in the east wing kept crying. All the people in the east wing room were beaten up, although the doctor came, but no one greeted him, and the backyard was in a mess.
In the afternoon, Cheng Yuanniang was tired and couldn't make trouble, so naturally she didn't make trouble.
Zhou Xi's family, who was outside, finally heard the news, but he didn't enter the main room immediately, but was stopped by embroidered beads.
She is also Cheng Yuanniang's companion, a confidant, and she can be said to be thinking about her master, but her IQ is lower.
"In the morning, the prince came and said that he wanted to accept the concubine, but the princess kept losing her temper." Xiuzhu said.
Zhou Xijia was stunned for a moment, and said, "Side concubine? ”
When a man takes a concubine, he always has to say a word to the main room. Han Xiao has two main rooms, Wu and Cheng Yuanniang.
In terms of personality, Wu is better at talking. If it was just an ordinary woman, it would be more appropriate to put it in the Wu family's room, and now I came over to Cheng Yuanniang and said that that person would be counted in the Shizi Mansion.
Insist on giving the reputation of the other party's concubine, this is ...... Is there another picture?
"The princess has always said that she disagrees, and resolutely refuses to let Shen Xiu enter the door." Xiuzhu continued.
Zhou Xi's family was shocked when he heard this, and asked: "Did the prince say it himself, the side concubine you want to accept is Shen Xiu?" ”
In the past few days, the people who have been sent out to keep an eye have been rewarded, and there is nothing unusual about HSBC shipping companies, let alone any news about Shen Xiu.
And no matter how you inquire, the news you got was that Shen Xiu had already returned to Kaiyang by boat.
If Wu hadn't given an affirmative answer, she would have suspected that she had been mistaken. In fact, it's just nonsense, and there is no such thing at all.
"Well, it's not ......," said Xiuzhu, "but who else could there be." ”
Zhou Xijia pondered for a while and said, "I know, I'm going to persuade the princess now." ”
"Mom...... Be careful, the princess is really angry today. Xiuzhu couldn't help but say.
Zhou Xijia smiled and said, "I know." ”
After speaking, Zhou Xijia turned around and entered the main room.
The main house, which was smashed by Cheng Yuanniang all morning, had been cleaned at this time. It's just that the smashed utensils haven't been replaced with new ones for a while.
Cheng Yuanniang was tired and was resting on the pillow, staring at the roof.
She was furious in her heart, and she wanted to peel Shen Xiu alive, but she didn't even have the physical strength to smash things, so she could only think about it in her head.
"The ...... of the Princess"
Zhou Xijia approached cautiously.
When Cheng Yuanniang saw her, she was even more angry, and said, "Didn't you go to investigate, what did you investigate?" You know, that slut is about to enter the door. ”
"The princess is angry." Zhou Xijia said, "The prince did not say that the candidate to be accepted is Shen Xiu. ”
"Who else but her?" Cheng Yuanniang said.
Zhou Xijia said: "As long as the prince doesn't say it, it may be someone else." The prince will definitely pass through Guo Changshi, and I will personally go to Changshi's mansion in a while to figure out the candidates for the concubine first. ”
She always felt that things were a little strange, and suddenly Baozhu heard her mother-in-law talking nonsense.
She investigated HSBC shipping and Shen Xiu, but there was no clue.
Suddenly, Han Xiao said to Cheng Yuanniang that she wanted to accept a side concubine, although Cheng Yuanniang kept saying that it was Shen Xiu, she felt that something was wrong.
I can't tell what's wrong, but I just don't think it's right.
"You idiot, if you hadn't wasted your time, I would have strangled that slut to death." Cheng Yuanniang said hatefully.
Zhou Xijia didn't want to argue with Cheng Yuanniang, but said, "The old slave went to find Guo Changshi first." ”
There is no requirement for the identity of the concubine's room, just like Qixia, the girl in the room doesn't care about her identity, just like the master.
But the status of the side concubine is noble, and with Shen Xiu's current status, she is not qualified at all.
If it is determined that the candidate for the side concubine is Shen Xiu, then you can make a big fuss. If you want to get in easily, it's simply impossible.
Even if Han Xiao insisted, he could also demote Shen Xiu from a side concubine to a concubine.
The woman in the back house has a very important reputation.
"Get out, get out, who's going to do it." Cheng Yuanniang scolded angrily.
Zhou Xijia didn't say anything more, turned around and left.
It's just that when I walked out of the house, I felt dizzy. The weather has been hot these days, but she has been busy, especially today, it can be said that she has not been idle for a moment.
At the age of forty years, it is indeed a little unbearable to withstand such a sun.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" The mother-in-law said, stepping forward to support Zhou Xi's family.
Zhou Xijia helped his mother-in-law to sit down in the verandah, and said, "It's a little dizzy, it's okay." ”
"On such a big day, sister-in-law shouldn't suffer from heat stroke." The mother-in-law said, "Sister-in-law sits, I'll go and bring my sister-in-law a bowl of mung bean soup." ”
"Well, I'm tired." Zhou Xijia said.
The mother-in-law went to the kitchen to ask for mung bean soup, and Zhou Xi's porch sat under the porch for a while, only to see the nurse in the east wing limping over.
Zhou Xijia was stunned for a moment, and even got up and said, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?" ”
The nurse said with a crying face: "It's the servants who are not careful, and the princess rewarded the board." Not only me, but all the attendants were beaten. ”
"Huh?" Zhou Xijia was startled at first, then sighed again, and said to the nurse: "Sisters-in-law are wronged. ”
The subordinates of the Yanwang Mansion are different from the subordinates of ordinary large families, and the subordinates who have signed the deed of sale will also cause trouble if the master kills them.
If the subordinate initiates a ruthless attack, it is also possible to turn the master.
The king's house is different, they are all tenants, and the master can not complain if he kills them.
But like Cheng Yuanniang, who beat everyone in the house at once, who will do the work.
"Don't dare to say wronged." The nurse said, "It's just this errand......"
Zhou Xijia asked: "What's wrong with Brother Chao?" ”
"Brother Chao has a fever." The nurse said, with slackness in her tone, "Although someone was sent to ask for a doctor, we were all on the board at the time, and I don't know if the doctor came." It's coming, and I'm afraid that I can't take care of it. ”
This board came down, and the people in the east wing were panicked.
There are many mothers who don't like concubines, but most of them don't ask. Leave it to the care of the nurse and mother-in-law, can you raise it and see your life.
Especially since this is the first child of the prince, no matter what kind of consideration, Cheng Yuanniang will not kill Brother Chao'er.
But Cheng Yuanniang's approach really seems to be to put Brother Chao'er to death. The nurse and mother-in-law will not take care of it, resulting in the death of their brother, and they will definitely be unlucky.
Although no one has said anything, those who have a way want to be transferred, who wants to wait for death here.
"Today is the princess who is in a bad mood, so she is angry with her sister-in-law." Zhou Xijia hurriedly appeased, and said: "Sister-in-law serves the marquis well, and when the princess is angry, she will naturally compensate the sisters-in-law." ”
It's that the subordinates of Yanwangfu don't dare to have two hearts, but like Cheng Yuanniang, they have scattered the hearts of their subordinates, and they are afraid that they will be ...... in the future
"Where do minions dare to think about this." The nurse said, her tone was sad, and said: "I just hope that my sister-in-law can say a few kind words in front of the princess, okay, good...... Leave us all a way to live. ”
As she spoke, the nurse began to cry.
She has no way, she can enter the palace as an errand, and she is counting on subsidizing her family. I didn't expect to be assigned here, and I was afraid that my life would not be saved.
Now I can only beg Zhou Xi's family, I just hope to save my life.
"Sister-in-law, don't do this." Zhou Xijia said continuously, and sighed infinitely in his heart, "If there is anything in the future, my sister-in-law just comes to look for me, and I will definitely be able to help you bear it." ”
The nurse listened, and she didn't believe much in her heart, Zhou Xi's family just had a heart, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to persuade Cheng Yuanniang. But he said: "With the words of my sister-in-law, I am much more relieved." ”
As he was talking, the mother-in-law came over with mung bean soup.
Seeing this, the nurse said, "I'll go and get busy first, and my sister-in-law will rest quietly." ”
"I'll send someone to get a doctor." Zhou Xijia said.
The nurse said, "I'm tired of my sister-in-law." ”
The nurse turned around and went back to the east wing, Zhou Xi's mung bean soup didn't bother to drink, and sent someone to invite the doctor first.
He also ordered the wound medicine to be brought to the east wing.
After the order, Zhou Xi's family thought of going to Changshi Mansion again, but her mother-in-law reminded her: "Sister-in-law, let's drink a bowl of mung bean soup first to cool off the heat, and then let's do an errand." ”
Although the master's orders are important, but his own life is also important, like Zhou Xi's family, he is afraid that the errand will not be done well, and he will fall first.
"Oh, no, I have to go." Zhou Xijia sighed.
In the past few days, she has been thinking about the step of entering the Yanwang Mansion, but she is afraid that she has made a mistake.
