Seeing the suspicion in Sheng Leyun's eyes, Narcissus was frightened, and he didn't dare to admit it, and said with a smile: "How did I say this?" The girl was hearty. ”

In fact, what she said to the water lily was the one that Sheng Leyun had just mentioned.

It is also true that Dai's mother was very good to Aunt Tao because of her son's affairs.

In the past, Aunt Tao was not good or bad to the people in their yard, and she was also gentle and amiable to Sheng Leyun. Since the eldest grandmother entered the door, Aunt Tao seemed to be affectionate to Dai's mother for a while.

If it was in the past, Aunt Tao probably wouldn't have given such a good thing to Dai's mother's son.

Everyone knows that Dai's mother's son is a second bastard.

Isn't it for nothing that he was asked to go to work in the shop and paid such a high salary? It is clearly used to please Dai's mother.

Sheng Leyun heard Narcissus deny it, and did not pursue it. She hung her head and sat silently without speaking.

She had just seen the water lily and went to tell Mrs. Sheng, but she didn't stop the water lily. In her heart, is she also like Narcissus, who listened to the words of the water lilies?

Looking at her frustrated and helpless appearance, Narcissus was a little distressed.

Although their girls are not smart and intelligent, they are very kind and have never thought of harming others. Suddenly made Sheng Leyun feel that the good and bad people around her were indisputable, and even she mistook the enemy for a benefactor, she would definitely be sad.

Narcissus took Sheng Leyun's hand and was about to comfort her, but Sheng Leyun shook Narcissus's hand back, with tears in her eyes: "Narcissus, my mother is a good person, isn't she?" ”

Narcissus nodded hurriedly and said with a smile: "Don't cry, girl, grandma is a good person." ”

"Aunt Tao is also a good person, right?" Sheng Leyun looked forward to Narcissus.

Narcissus also nodded: "Aunt Tao is also a good person, and she is also good to the girl." ”

Sheng Leyun's tears fell, and she shook off Narcissus's hand: "You always coax me!" The water lily is the one who really says it to me, and only she is the one who tells the truth. You obviously suspect Aunt Tao, but you refuse to say it. You go out, I don't want you to serve. ”

Narcissus stood up in fear. Kneel down for Sheng Leyun: "Miss, the slave is wrong." ”

Sheng Leyun ignored her, turned over to the bed, put down the curtain and lay down. The quilt was tightly wrapped around his body, wrapping himself around.

For a long time, Sheng Leyun tilted her head slightly, and saw that Narcissus was still kneeling. Thinking of her thoughtfulness, Sheng Leyun couldn't bear it after all, lifted the corner of the curtain, and said, "You get up." ”

Narcissus knelt on her feet a little numb. He thanked him and stood up slowly.

"You go out and do something, I'll sleep for a while." Sheng Leyun put down the curtain again and lay on her side.

Narcissus rubbed her somewhat sore knees and stepped back.

*****

The water lily went to the Yuanyang Pavilion, and happened to see the citron and the incense tree coming out of the main house with a few maids who served in the house, all standing in the eaves corridor.

The door of the main house was hidden.

She hurriedly stepped forward and saluted them one by one. Called my sister.

She used to be a second-class maid in Yuanyang Pavilion, and then Mrs. Sheng thought that she and Narcissus had some ideas, so she sent the two of them to serve Sheng Leyun.

"But what's the matter?" Citron asked her with a smile.

Water Lily hurriedly smiled: "Some words to reply to Mrs. ......"

Citron smiled. didn't ask any more, invited her to sit in the ear room on the side, and brought her a cup of tea: "Sit down for a while, the prince and the third master are talking in front of Mrs." ”

The water lily thanked her, and sat in the ear room with the citron and gossiped.

In the east room of the main house, Mrs. Sheng was sitting on the kang, and the brothers Sheng Xiuyi and Sheng Xiumu had just entered the door.

Kang's mother is serving in the outside world.

Mrs. Sheng had a cold face and let their brothers salute, but they didn't say anything.

Sheng Xiuyi and Sheng Xiumu both knew it in their hearts, and the two of them made a move. Stand respectfully with your hands down.

Mrs. Sheng sat alone, and suddenly she sobbed, and the corners of her eyes were wet.

Sheng Xiuyi and Sheng Xiumu were stunned, and the two of them were busy hugging Mrs. Sheng left and right, shouting to their mother in a low voice, persuading Mrs. Sheng not to be sad.

Mrs. Sheng shook off Sheng Xiumu's hand fiercely.

Sheng Xiumu understood. Busy getting off the kang and kneeling at Mrs. Sheng's feet: "Mother, the child did something wrong, you beat and scolded the child, and the child has no complaints." Don't be angry. ”

Sheng Xiuyi also persuaded: "Mother, if you want to beat or scold, I will help you." Don't be sad. You are so sad, Brother Mu and I deserve to die. ”

Mrs. Sheng sighed deeply, took out her handkerchief and touched her tears.

Seeing Sheng Xiumu kneeling on the cold ground, although he hated him tightly in his heart, he was reluctant. She cried, felt better, and her anger was reduced by half, and she said to Sheng Xiumu: "Get up." ”

Sheng Xiumu heard that although Mrs. Sheng's voice was cold, it was not a counterstatement, so she got up and sat beside Mrs. Sheng to please Mrs. Sheng.

Mrs. Sheng pushed him, and her tone was a little harsh: "Sit on the chair." ”

Sheng Xiumu couldn't, so he had to get up and sit on the Taishi chairs in a row along the kang.

Mrs. Sheng looked back at Sheng Xiumu. The young son who is already twenty years old, such a young child has grown into a handsome son in the wind of Yushu today, as if in the blink of an eye. In her memory, the children were always so small, surrounded by her knees, but inadvertently, they were all about to become fathers and husbands, and they were the backbone of the family.

She sighed again.

Thinking about Sheng Xiumu and Qin Yi, I was very disappointed in these two children.

Qin Yi is an orphan girl after all, and she is fostered in Sheng Mansion. Even if there is no doubt about the food and clothing with Miss Houmen, but when she goes out to socialize, some powerful people will treat her lightly.

She is not Miss Houmen after all, and her name is not right.

She was worried about her future, plotting, and even taking advantage of others, although Mrs. Sheng felt cold, although she felt that she had misseen Qin Yi, but when she calmed down, she was also able to understand her.

At the end of the day, she's just fighting for the top.

Women can't serve their family and country, can't be crowned kings and worship prime ministers, can't study and enter the office, want a good future, want to change their fate, it's nothing more than marriage.

But men are different.

For Sheng Xiumu, Mrs. Sheng was full of anger and could not understand.

"Brother Mu, tell your mother, what do you think of Sister Yi in your heart?" Mrs. Sheng's voice was a little resentful, and she looked at her young son fixedly, "You are going to marry a wife and take a concubine in the future, how do you plan to settle Sister Yi'er?" ”

Sheng Xiumu looked at her mother in astonishment.

Seeing that his mother's kind eyes were full of doubt and disappointment, his heart jumped, and he looked at his brother again, as if begging his brother to help him speak.

Sheng Xiuyi ignored him.

Mrs. Sheng said sharply: "Don't look at your eldest brother, you say it yourself!" ”

Sheng Xiumu hurriedly stood up, but he didn't know how to speak.

Mrs. Sheng did not speak. Waiting for Sheng Xiumu.

"Mother, the child is wrong." In the end, Sheng Xiumu just said this. He knew why his mother was angry, so he naturally didn't dare to tell the truth. But I don't dare to lie and quibble in my mother's anger anymore.

Mrs. Sheng waved her hand helplessly: "You go out." ”

Sheng Xiumu stood still. Pleading to look at the mother.

Mrs. Sheng didn't look at him.

Sheng Xiuyi had no choice but to say, "Brother Mu, don't you have to be on duty in the afternoon?" You go out, my mother is with me here! ”

Sheng Xiumu had no choice but to salute and retreat from Yuanyang Pavilion.

Mrs. Sheng felt a sour feeling in her heart.

She said to Sheng Xiuyi: "Brother Mu'er has grown up, ......" her tone was full of amazement.

Sheng Xiuyi smiled and comforted Mrs. Sheng: "If you don't grow up, your mother should be in a hurry." Brother Mu is good, the second young master of Yongningbo Mansion. Sleeping huā su willow, openly raising a small outside. When their wife said a word to him, she confronted his mother in person. At least our Mu Ge'er is not ridiculous......"

Mrs. Sheng couldn't help but smile.

Compared with other people's children, the children of the Sheng family are indeed rare and filial, never causing trouble outside, and they dare not disobey their parents.

Compared with those gentlemen, Sheng Xiuyi and Sheng Xiumu are worry-free.

Sheng Xiuyi saw that she could listen to it, and told Mrs. Sheng a few ugly things about the sons of the same age as Sheng Xiumu.

Some of Mrs. Sheng didn't know. Gradually, I listened.

With the comparison, Sheng Xiumu's affection for Qin Yi is really nothing, and Mrs. Sheng breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. It also gradually dispersed.

"After talking for a long time, take a sip of tea, mother?" Sheng Xiuyi saw that Mrs. Sheng's mood was gradually improving, and asked her with a smile.

Mrs. Sheng said yes, called Kang's mother, and asked the little maid to make tea and come in.

Kang's mother agreed outside the curtain.

The little maid brought the tea, and Mrs. Sheng's mood was half better, and there was a smile on her face.

Citron said softly: "Madam, the water lilies beside the eldest lady have been here for a long time, and they have something to say back to Madame." ”

Mrs. Sheng let the call in.

Water lilies greet Mrs. Sheng.

Mrs. Sheng asked her what was the matter.

Water Lily told Mrs. Sheng how Dai's mother made the eldest lady cry, 1510; and told Dai's mother often like this to the eldest lady. made the eldest lady unhappy, and said it together. Seeing that Mrs. Sheng's face was fine, she simply told her what she had guessed.

Mrs. Sheng listened, and then glanced at Sheng Xiuyi.

Sheng Xiuyi's expression was as usual, and he didn't see a trace of unhappiness.

Mrs. Sheng smiled at the water lily and said, "Good boy." It's hard for you to be so sensible! You go back to serve the eldest lady first, I know it. ”

Water Lily Road is.

"This girl, her mouth is fast, and her mind is also turning fast." Mrs. Sheng said to Sheng Xiuyi that the water lily "is a rare person who understands." ”

Sheng Xiuyi took a sip of the teacup, didn't answer, just smiled.

"You go too, you don't have to go to the yamen today?" Mrs. Sheng asked.

Sheng Xiuyi smiled: "No. Mother, you rest, I'll go back first. ”

Mrs. Sheng smiled and said yes.

As soon as Sheng Xiuyi left, Mrs. Sheng called Mother Kang to come, frowned and told Mother Kang what the water lily said, and said, "...... Teaching my sister to strictly abide by her duty is the duty of being a nurse. But what the water lily said is also reasonable, and making a big fuss about small things is indeed suspected of provoking. How should this be for good? ”

The relationship between the late mother and the children has always been delicate, and it is easy to provoke.

Kang's mother was also embarrassed: "...... The water lily is right, but Dai's mother is not wrong. If Dai's mother is punished for this matter, who will dare to care about Miss in the future? Don't you have to learn the rules of Miss? ”

Mrs. Sheng frowned: "You're right. But if you let it go, if Mother Dai really has bad intentions and does it intentionally, won't she teach a good girl badly? ”

Kang's mother couldn't think of a good way for a while.

The two finally sighed: If it is really as the water lily said, Dai's mother is deliberately provoking, then the person behind the plot is really vicious and ingenious.
