Section 019 Cheko
Old Marquis Xue heard the prince Xue Ziyu talk about Xue Dongwan in the outer courtyard, and he was furious.
Today, his old friend, the hereditary third-generation second-class Fengguo general, Du Guogong, came to visit, and Old Marquis Xue originally planned to have dinner in the outer courtyard and then return to the inner courtyard. Shizi's little servant went to find him, he left Du Guogong, and met Shizi Ye in the outer study, the two said a few words, and Xue Laohou took the case and returned to Rongde Pavilion.
"Check it out for me, I can't find a reason, no one in the five rooms will live!" The old marquis and the old lady confirmed that Xue Dongwan had hanged herself, and immediately brushed the teacup on the ground, holding the corner of the kang with one hand, and pinched the green tendons on the back of her hand.
The old lady was silent, she understood the temper of the old marquis, no matter what she said at this time, it would add fuel to the fire, let him vent his emotions, and it would not be too late to persuade him.
For a long time, the old marquis's hand holding the kang table no longer trembled, and the thunderous anger on his cheeks also disappeared by four or five percent, and he closed his eyes with some grief, trying to calm his anger.
The old lady handed him the relief bat pattern cup of Ru kiln tea in her hand.
The entrance of the clear and warm tea, the strong fragrance of Tieguanyin is left between the lips and teeth, and the slightly sweet and bitter tea infiltrates the internal organs, making people's hearts inexplicably quiet, and the old marquis is really calm.
"I'm in charge, this matter is hidden, only the big room and the fifth room know." The old lady's voice was like snow on the top of a plum tree in winter, seemingly quiet and peaceful, but in fact, it was secretly chilling, "First pretend that Sister Wan is haunted by ghosts, and attack Sister Shu in the middle of the night." Send it to Jingyuan Nunnery, and let Manager Ge help take care of her funeral. After half a year, I will say that she died of illness, and I will hold a funeral for her, and ask Buddhist monks and Taoist priests to spend more time for her, and it is not in vain that she has been in Xue Mansion for 14 years......"
In the end, the more she spoke, the slower she became, for fear that her voice would be choked and rekindle the anger and grief of the old marquis.
The old marquis listened to the old lady's words and was silent for a long time.
"Don't check?" He looked back and stared at the old lady closely.
Meeting the sharp eyes of the old marquis, the old lady's expression was calm and insistent: "Don't check!" A good girl's family, looking for death for no reason? There will always be some people and things involved in the family! In our Zhenxian Mansion, except for Sister Rong in the second room, the rest of the girls to be married are all in the fifth room. As long as you check, it will inevitably leak the news. Once there is a rumor, people are terrible and hateful, and it is not good for the other girls in the fifth room. Sister Wan has Sister Wan on it, Sister Shu on it, Sister Lin on it, Sister Yan on it, Sister Xian on it, ......"
The old marquis heard some words, his face was gloomy again, and he asked the old lady: "Do you know the cause of Sister Wan'er's death?" ”
The old lady looked at him fixedly: "Master Hou, the concubine has been in charge of the inner house for you for nearly forty-five years, have you ever seen when the concubine killed one by mistake and when did the concubine put one wrong?" Hou Ye rest assured, the concubine body is all in mind, Sister Wan will not die in vain! ”
The old marquis listened and let out a long sigh.
"I'm going to be punished!" He said sternly, "In our house, we can no longer find such a tragic thing as Sister Wan'er!" ”
The old lady said yes.
The affairs of the inner house, the old lady knows better than the old marquis, and after so many years, what kind of character the old lady is, the old marquis is clear, and he is very relieved to entrust the inner house to her.
Since the old lady said that she knew it in her heart, the old marquis had no intention of personally pursuing it.
But the grief is still uncontrollable, it is a living life, it is his granddaughter! He closed his eyes slightly, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes condensed, making him look old.
One of the measures for the prosperity and withering of a family is the large number of people. Death before it is a sign of misfortune.
The old marquis not only feels sorry for Sister Wan, but also worries about the family.
Recently, the court has been so restless, and he has a kind of fear and exhaustion that he has fallen into the stormy seas.
On the second day, the old lady handed over the name card to the palace to thank her for the reward of the Laba Festival.
On the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, there was a reply in the palace, and the queen mother summoned the wife of the Marquis of Zhenxian at the third moment of the eighteenth day of the lunar month.
He also said that Emperor Xue's concubine was respectful and benevolent, but she could support it, such as today's Fu Rui and Zhen, the emperor's grace is vast, and the Xue Mansion is specially allowed to enter the palace, and the sisterhood of the imperial concubine is round.
In other words, the imperial concubine Niangniang wants to see the sisters in the family, and now the country is auspicious, the world is peaceful and prosperous, the queen mother is amnesty, showing the emperor's grace, understanding the imperial concubine Niangniang's longing for her relatives, and allowing the Xue family's concubine to enter the palace to see.
This is a rule that has not been seen in several dynasties!
The old lady took the decree, sent the eunuch who passed the decree, and asked the little maid to go to the gate of the outer courtyard to wait for the old marquis and the prince to go to court.
She and Mrs. Shizi sat silently in the east room, each holding a hand warmer in their hands, and their expressions were slightly uneasy.
Any change always makes people scratch their heads and panic in their hearts.
Although I can guess anything, it is always the women in the house, not as accurate as the men's news, and only when I see the old marquis and the prince, the old lady will feel at ease.
On the morning of the thirteenth day of the lunar month, Dong Yu did not know about the decree handed down by the Forbidden Palace. There was also an incident in her Shicui Pavilion, that is, Tangerine Xiang and Luo's mother went out today.
Five days have passed since Xue Dongwan committed suicide, and the rumors of Xue Mansion are boiling more and more.
The Taoyu Pavilion has been tricked, saying that it is haunted, and Miss Ten is haunted by evil ghosts and sent to Jingyuan Nunnery; Miss Eleven was frightened by Miss Ten, and now the old lady is by her side and rests in the old lady's warm pavilion.
Miss Ten's maids and mother-in-law were all sent to Zhuangzi.
The eldest maid Fleur beside Miss Eleventh stayed, and the housekeeper Mother Jin and another big maid, Akadi, all the rough maids and mothers-in-law, were also sent to the Grange.
Everyone couldn't find out anything from the Taoyu Pavilion, and they didn't dare to go to the old lady's Rongde Pavilion to inquire about the situation, so they all used the excuse to come to the Shicui Pavilion in Dongyi, where she was the closest to the Taoyu Pavilion.
Dongyu originally planned to let Luo's mother and Tangerine go out first on the twenty-third day of the lunar month.
Orange was calmer, and left until Rose was familiar with the situation in her house, and then promoted a second-class servant from among the rough maids, and then sent her away.
Then Dongyu learned that the Yang family left the house full of things and returned to Jianhengbo's mansion.
At this time, the rumors became more and more arrogant, saying that the fifth lady went back to her parents' house in the wedding clothes, and the old lady drove her away.
If she didn't deter the big and small maids and mothers-in-law in the house, she was afraid that if she said something from the Shicui Pavilion, Mrs. Shizi blamed her, and it affected her hard work to calculate the future for Tangerine, Tangerine Xiang and Luo's mother.
Dongyu had to send Tangerine and Luo's mother away in advance.
"Miss......" Tangerine Xiang carried her burden and kowtowed to Dongyu like rain in tears, and her mother led her back first.
Tangerine's mother is a first-class housekeeper mother in the kitchen, and her son used to listen to errands in the number room, but she always drank and misbehaved, so she exempted him from errands and let his son go to the number room to listen to errands.
Tangerine's brother is like her mother, he can drill camps, he is diligent and clever, and he was transferred from the number room to the comprador in a few years, and now he is a little housekeeper in the comprador of Xue Mansion, and her sister-in-law is in the Huanyi room, and she is also a little housekeeper mother.
Tangerine Xiangniang is the first-class housekeeper mother of the kitchen, some knowledge, Dongyu first found her, hinted a few words, and rewarded a gold tray dotted emerald ruby hairpin and a Ruyi cloud green agate golden sideburns hairpin to Tangerine Xiang, she understood that when she led Tangerine Xiang back, there was no resentment on her face.
Luo's mother took Dong Ying's hand and said that Sister Ying should take care of herself in the future, don't be bullied, and said that Tang Hong and Dong Ying were in tears.
Dong Ying rewarded her with a pair of silver-gilded immortal beaded emerald tourmaline hairpins, but she refused to ask for them.
Orange Hong persuaded: "Mom take it, otherwise how can Miss get by in her heart?" ”
Mother Luo sobbed and wiped her tears, so she had to accept a pair of hairpins rewarded by Dongyi, got up to salute her, and also went out of the Shicui Pavilion.
When Mother Luo and Tangerine Xiang left their home, when Rose knew that they were in agreement, she had a confidant and said that she was new and it was inconvenient to be around, so she avoided it under the pretext that she had asked the maid in the old lady's house for shoes last time.
As soon as Mother Luo and Tangerine Xiang left, Tangerine Hong sternly told the maids in the house that if they chewed the root of their tongues indiscriminately, the fate of everyone in the Taoyu Pavilion would be their fate.
The maids and ladies of the Shicui Pavilion are all in danger and dare not say more.
Mother Luo and Tangerine Xiang went out, and the old lady rewarded two maids to Miss Nine, and since then, no one has come to inquire about the Taoyu Pavilion.
In the evening, Dongyu went to greet the old lady.
Mrs. Rong, Mrs. Feng, second lady, and fifth lady Xue Dongrong had already sat down around the old lady, and the room was full of beads and greenery, laughing and laughing.
Seeing Dongyu come in, the old lady looked at her with a smile: "Sister Ying is always the first to come, but today is late...... very happy look."
Dong Yu smiled and saluted everyone, saying that today Tangerine Xiang and Luo's mother went out, she saw them off, and the things in the house had to be rearranged and so on, so it was too late.
Mrs. Shizi took the first step and pulled Dong Ying and hugged her in her arms: "No wonder my eyes are red, I thought I was bullied by someone, it's okay." Sister Yu, let's enter the palace on the eighteenth day of the lunar month......"
Dong Ying was slightly stunned, shall we?
Which one of us?
This us, including her? She is a young lady who has not left the cabinet, how can she enter the palace without a title?
She suddenly remembered her jade pendant, there was a little coolness behind her, and her eyes couldn't help but look at the old lady.
