Chapter 4: Marriage
The back house of the Prime Minister's Mansion is generally in charge of the main mother Dou.
The fourth lady made a lot of trouble over there.
But at this moment, the Dou family was still sitting in his place as usual, counting the account books in the past mansion.
Without him, that Aunt Gu gave birth to the eldest young master, so she begged the old man Chen Wenli to say that he was idle and wanted to help the Dou family share some affairs.
No, sharing and sharing, there are some wrong accounts.
The stewards below have already calculated it, and Dou Shi is holding it now, and he has to calculate it again.
Not far away is the second lady Chen Yuan, she and the eldest lady Chen Yuan are twin sisters, carved out of a mold. And this Chen Yang has one more jump than the eldest sister.
Seeing that he was going to get married in a few days, Dou detained this daughter in his house and suppressed his temperament, so as not to marry Hu Lai.
The second lady, Chen Yang, is embroidering on a shelf.
From the morning to the present, the posture of the mother and daughter has hardly changed, and both of them are carefully doing their own things.
When Dou is serious about things, he actually doesn't like to bother.
The people below are not important things, and they are generally not widely communicated.
But now the people outside are urging, and the little girl who passed the word thinks about whether she should tell Dou or bomb that person back.
Dou Shi was tired of seeing it, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw those people below probing her brain, and she asked, "What's going on outside, is the master back?" ”
The old man Chen Wenli didn't leave the palace until noon, and went to Aunt Gu's place for a while, and the old man let the horse go out again, and he went to the palace.
Dou is generally too lazy to pay attention to the affairs of a few of them, so he simply does what he has been delaying.
But now things are a little different, the little girl's mouth is like a blade, and she doesn't have to stop talking: "The maid in the fourth lady's room said that the fourth lady is cheating the corpse now." ”
Dou snorted: "What is the big deal, the fuss, the fourth lady is fine, she is returning to her soul at the moment." ”
"Then ma'am, I'll let the maid go back?"
Dou snorted: "Let her take good care of Miss, if she is as lazy as before, she will strip her clothes and throw it out." ”
The second lady, who was embroidering, raised her eyes and glanced at her mother, and continued to bow her head to embroider.
When the maid who passed the word went down, another grandmother stepped forward.
Dou closed the ledger.
The grandmother retold Dou Shi all what had just happened: "The fourth lady is lying on the bed now, and she still doesn't say anything. ”
Dou pushed the ledger forward: "It's all this time, and there are still people there to do those ghostly things." Let's take a look in a few months, this matter is finally settled, but fortunately, nothing happened to the four girls. ”
His daughter is about to get married, if the fourth lady commits suicide at this time, it will be unlucky at all, and Dou is really annoyed.
Dou Shi stretched out her hand to another stack of ledgers and began to look through them again, she said to the grandmother without raising her head: "You go to the alley next door and call Doctor Ye over, and ask him to show the fourth girl what is going on now." ”
If this person hangs his neck, he can't die at that time, and it can be regarded as her fate.
"The most taboo thing for girls is to leave some small scars, you can take some jade cream later, let the doctor see if it is applicable, if it is done, give it to her, it will be better soon."
Hearing the jade cream, the second young lady Chen Yang raised her head again: "Mother, that was hard to get from my aunt, how could you use it so easily for the fourth sister." No matter how big the scar is, it will fade after a long time, and the medicine will not be used at all, and it will be wasted. ”
There was no one else in the house except their mother and daughter.
Dou Shi looked at her without a smile: "How precious is it, heavier than human skin?" Second, if you embroider me seriously, I'll see it later, if you raise your head from time to time like this, you won't have to eat tonight. ”
The second lady Chen Yang was coquettish, and later saw that her mother was real, and she re-embroidered it a little cowardly.
The next people started to get in.
Some brought doctors over, and some came in to spread the word.
Seeing that half an hour had passed, news came in from outside.
"The master has just come back from the second gate, and he is going to Aunt Gu's yard at this time."
Dou continued to settle the accounts: "The matter over there of the fourth young lady, but has it been dealt with?"
Aunt Gu's yard is lively at the moment.
Almost all the maids in the yard, large and small, pulled out and lectured one by one.
Seeing Chen Wenli come back, especially when she saw the smile on his face, Aunt Gu knew that the matter was done. She also deliberately pinched herself for this reason, and cried and stepped forward to Chen Wenli and said: "These subordinates, I don't know which one is too talkative, and I actually told Miss Fourth about marrying someone." Master, the fourth lady was very frightened about this incident, and she just hanged herself. ”
Chen Wenli's originally smiling face immediately sank: "The four girls are gone?" ”
Seeing that his face was grim, Aunt Gu hurriedly explained: "Fortunately, the fourth miss has a big life, no, the third miss went to see her, and it was easy to find her and pick up a life, but if it was someone else, it would not be as lucky as the fourth miss." up"
When Chen Wenli heard this, his face still didn't stretch, and his face even darkened.
The two of them entered the back room, and Aunt Gu said what the third lady said to her.
"God, this is trying to kill the fourth lady. Master, only you know about this matter. I don't know which one in my yard came out, so I'm interrogating them one by one now, sir, what's wrong with you? If you are angry, you will scold me, and you should not hold it in your heart. ”
This Aunt Gu has been with Chen Wenli for so many years, and she knows that what he believes most in is numerology.
In the numerology explained by Fang Shi, the four young ladies are specialized in the old man Chen Wenli, so every time he hears these four words, he is very unhappy.
Chen Wenli now heard that Miss Four had hanged herself, and she only felt that it was bad luck.
"Your Majesty was fine just now, I just told him about the four girls, after all, this matter has been decided, whether she hangs herself or dives, this matter is like this."
For Chen Wenli, this daughter is dead when she dies, and he doesn't care at all.
Anyway, if he folded a daughter into it, the emperor would naturally come to compensate them, after all, this matter was not something he voluntarily licked his face to beg.
Aunt Gu saw that Chen Wenli had said the right thing, and the corners of her mouth were almost up to the sky.
"Master, your great kindness to me, the slave family will never forget."
Chen Wenli's favorite thing was Aunt Gu's gentle and petty appearance, he stood up from the stool, pinched his chin, and smiled: "Then have you thought about how to repay me?" ”
Aunt Gu became more and more humble, and her face looked small when she bowed her head, so she bowed her head and raised her eyebrows at Chen Wenli: "The slave family must wash tonight, prepare the dishes and wait for the master's luck." ”
Chen Wenli suddenly remembered something at this moment: "Tonight is her day, you first try it slowly, and I'll go out." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked out.
Aunt Gu originally wanted to use her actions to stop him, but Chen Wenli's speed was too fast.
The subordinate replied that the old man Chen Wenli went in the direction of the Dou family.
Aunt Gu stomped her feet, but she had no other way, who called the old man Chen Wenli Although she doted on her, she also had a lot of respect for the Dou family, and she had to tell her about anything.
Aunt Gu sneered, who called herself a concubine.
However, that Dou is indeed a good means, and he is free to accept and release Chen Wenli, and Chen Wenli doesn't care about small things, but he has to ask Dou about big things.
She must have known about it.
As long as she thought that Dou might be laughing at her in secret, Aunt Gu couldn't stand it, pulled the pillow next to her, pretended to be Dou's face, and tore and beat her.
The sound of crackling boards outside and Aunt Gu's low screams, if Chen Wenli saw it, he would definitely feel weird.
And after Aunt Gu finished venting, her face was full of relaxed posture.
This matter has finally passed, if she hadn't cried like that to Chen Wenli and begged Chen Wenli to be soft-hearted, maybe this matter would really fall on her third lady, and she would have been crying at that time.
When Chen Hua opened his eyes again, it was already dark.
In front of the bed, there was a crowd of people, especially a woman in her thirties, with smooth skin and hair all erected.
She seemed to be looking at her in a daze, Chen Hua was confused for a moment, and soon came to her senses.
This person is the mother-in-law of the fourth lady Chen Hua, Dou Shi.
Seeing that she woke up, the Dou family seemed to really focus, she looked at her, and even smiled at that moment: "Why are you so stupid, this kid, fortunately, God bless you, this life has been picked up again, if you are gone, how can we explain to your aunt?" ”
Chen Hua remembered that this original biological mother seemed to be Aunt Ye, but this aunt had long since disappeared.
When the fourth lady Chen Hua was still ignorant, she died.
These four young ladies Chen Hua actually like this Dou family, but the Dou family likes to be quiet, and he doesn't like to set rules for the concubines, and I heard that she is also very busy, so this fourth young lady rarely walks around her.
It's a grandmother who only sees her once or twice a year.
Chen Hua actually wanted to call her, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he couldn't make any sound, just ahhhhhh
Chen Wenli, who was standing not far away, listened to the ah-ahhh
He was annoyed enough outside, but this daughter didn't stop, he walked over from his position: "Let her die, it's really dead, it's okay, she was born like this to die or not, but she can't die, who is she going to show it?" Me? What a bad luck! ”
Chen Wenli's words were a little ruthless, but Chen Hua didn't have any expression, but he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
She knew that this discomfort did not belong to her, but the dead Chen Hua.
"What do you do by saying this in front of your child? Fortunately, Chen Hua is fine, it is better to die than to live, and it is not a big deal, they are all young girls, and it is normal to be thin-skinned when they listen to the marriage. ”
Engagement?
