Chapter 265: It's Mama Xue's turn

Wu Niang knelt in the courtyard all night, no matter how Xue tried to persuade her, she couldn't persuade her to go back, and was trying to find someone to force her back, but Wang Dong spoke: let her kneel, and wait until she learns to distinguish between right and wrong before saying anything else.

So no one cares about Wu Niang who knelt in the courtyard upright.

In the end, no one knows whether Wu Niang can distinguish between right and wrong, because she fainted in the courtyard early in the morning. Xue had no choice but to ask someone to carry her back to her room, find someone to take care of her, and ask a doctor for medicine.

Aunt Cui's departure did not seem to bring the slightest ripple to the Wang family, because Wang Dong had spoken, and those who chewed the root of their tongue were beaten with a hundred sticks, driven out of the house, and never hired.

The days passed so calmly, and Sanniang didn't deliberately settle the situation on Aunt Cui's side, first, she did what she thought she should do, she didn't have to be Aunt Cui's life, and then she believed in Wang Jing.

Bai Ying always went to the outer courtyard to inquire about the news, so Sanniang also knew that because Aunt Cui refused to admit her guilt, because the human and material evidence was conclusive, she suffered a lot. To deal with the punishment of the woman, Aunt Cui tried them one by one in prison.

On the third day, Aunt Cui finally drew a confession and was just waiting to be executed, but she was already exhausted.

Sanniang asked Bai Ying not to inquire again.

On this day, Sanniang was still gossiping with Xue.

"The lord said yesterday that the old lady and her party should arrive the day after tomorrow, I have already packed up the place, and I have discussed it with the lord, and we will move to the back west room in the backyard tomorrow."

Because this was Wang Dong's decision, Sanniang didn't say anything, she also looked at the back west chamber, which was much more spacious than the west chamber in the middle courtyard. And the three rooms are all opened, and the furniture and utensils on the rearrangement are excellent, so it is much more atmospheric than her west room.

Sanniang was about to reply, but a little maid came outside to report that the master was back, and Sanniang was about to get up and wait for Wang Dong to come and leave. I didn't want to wait for a long time and didn't see Wang Dong enter the door. Generally speaking, this courtyard is not very large, and when the people outside report to the main house. Basically, Wang Dong arrived.

Sanniang had some differences, but the agarwood that served tea came in, and she put the tea tray on the table. The face is a little unsightly.

"What's going on?" Sanniang frowned. Generally speaking, agarwood is smiling at people, and rarely gives people a face, let alone in front of the master.

Agarwood walked over and whispered to Sanniang and Xue: "As soon as the master entered the second door, Mama Xue didn't know where to come out, and she stopped the master. The old man didn't know why, but he stood under the porch and talked angrily to Mama Xue. Just now, the slave and maid watched from a distance, and Mama Xue wiped her tears and looked sad. I was very ...... She wouldn't be speaking ill of Madame and Mademoiselle in front of the master, would she? ”

Xue Shi was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Sanniang, who raised her eyebrows. I thought about it, but I smiled.

Seeing that the Xue family was also a little worried, Sanniang smiled and said, "The master is the head of the family." There's nothing wrong with that. But mother, you have to remember, this inner courtyard will always be a woman's world, and even if his man has the ability to reach the sky outside, he can't interfere in the affairs of this backyard...... Unless it's the woman in the inner courtyard who needs him to intervene somewhere. Speaking of this, Sanniang's expression was a little teasing: "Mama Xue seems to be really anxious this time, otherwise with her experience in the backyard for most of her life, how could she forget this?" ”

Xue Shi looked at Sanniang with burning eyes, these days, she has learned a lot of things from Sanniang, listening to her remarks, Xue knows that Sanniang must have some good way, she is now the time to be thirsty for knowledge.

Sanniang couldn't help but smile at the Xue family's eyes.

She stepped forward and whispered to Xue, who couldn't stop nodding, and the adoration in her eyes was undisguised.

Xue Shi has been reminded by Sanniang for a while, calm down and think about it, combined with Mama Xue's attitude towards her since they first met, Xue knows that what Sanniang said is not untargeted. So he became wary of Mama Xue.

Although Agarwood was also surprised on the side, but watching the mother and daughter get along with each other, Xue and Sanniang were together, the roles between the two seemed to have been reversed, Sanniang became an experienced elder, and Xue became a studious junior.

Fortunately, both of them are well-versed people, and neither of them regarded this as an embarrassing thing.

"I've never been embarrassed to tell you, although most of the people in this house are quite obedient, but there are also a few who were picked up by Mama Xue, such as the kitchen steward, the daughter-in-law in the account, and the two mammas in charge of purchasing. Although he listened to my orders, he was not as easy as Mama Xue's...... These people also had some relationship with the Xue family before, so the master didn't look down on them a few times. ”

Sanniang smiled, these Xue family didn't say that she knew, Xue Mama had ruled the family for several years, even if she suffered a big loss in her hands, the years of Jiwei were not scattered and scattered, there were always a few diehards who would sell her account, plus Wang Dong's ambiguous attitude, and did not say that he wanted to cut Xue Mama's power, so there were still a few people who were ready to move, and all of them occupied an important position. It's just that these people have been working in the inner courtyard for many years and understand the situation, so there is no situation of going on strike on weekdays.

But in Sanniang's heart, either don't make a move, or cut off all the enemy's back roads as soon as she makes a move, which also gives a wake-up call to those who are watching. Although the backyard is small, it is also a mountain that cannot accommodate two masters.

She had long wanted to help the Xue family cut off these people, but she had been very busy recently, and she didn't find a good opportunity, but this time, she ...... The opportunity has finally arrived.

Mama Xue still wanted to be the master of this backyard justifiably, and Sanniang laughed, which was too naΓ―ve.

"I'll go back first, it's up to you, mother, to see if things can be done." Sanniang smiled and blinked, looking naughty.

Xue covered his mouth and smiled: "Don't worry, you will be lucky not to be dishonored." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Sanniang saluted and left the main room.

As soon as Sanniang came out, she saw Wang Dong and Mama Xue standing there under the corridor near the Hanging Flower Gate, the expressions on their faces, Sanniang only saw clearly when she walked to her West Chamber, and they were all sad.

Sanniang sneered in her heart, and sure enough, Mama Xue used this trick again.

Wang Dong and Mama Xue also seemed to finish speaking, Sanniang saw Wang Dong coming this way, so she stopped and stood respectfully on the side, and when Wang Dong passed by, Sanniang made a salute, dignified and calm, and people couldn't find fault with the etiquette.

Wang Dong paused, nodded to Sanniang, and said in a soft voice, "Did you chat with your mother just now?" ”

Since Aunt Cui was sent to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion on that day, Wang Dong's attitude towards Sanniang has softened a lot, probably because he finally feels that he owes something to the Zhao family. Sanniang felt it, but she still had a respectful attitude, without the slightest pampering and arrogant attitude, she also understood that there was not too much pampering to be ashamed of, who knows how long Wang Dong's conscience can be maintained?

"I didn't understand something about the needlework, so I went to my mother." Sanniang said with a faint smile.

Wang Dong's face softened a little: "Your mother's needlework is excellent, and your mother and daughter get along well, which is very good." ”

Any man, even if there are a group of wives and concubines, and a bunch of concubines and concubines, he will also have a harmonious dream in his backyard, his wife and concubines are like sisters, and his children are cute and blind date. This is also the reason why in the network of later generations, the stallion is in power, and the market is too big.

Therefore, Wang Dong saw that his stepwife and children got along well, and he was also very complacent.

After Wang Dong said this, he went to the main room, Sanniang smiled and bowed and waited for Wang Dong to walk away before straightening up. When I looked up, I found that Mama Xue, who had just walked behind Wang Dong, was still standing there, looking at her with a pair of hazy eyes. If it was someone else, how could he be shocked into a cold sweat when he suddenly met such a pair of eyes, but Sanniang was smiling as the person opposite, only smiled and nodded, and went to his west chamber, not taking the face of the yin owl that Mama Xue didn't have time to take back to heart at all.

Mama Xue gritted her teeth, suddenly turned her head to look in the direction of the main room, and muttered: "Master, the slave knows that you are a ...... who misses the old love."

did not live up to Mama Xue's chatter, Wang Dong is indeed a nostalgic person.

As soon as he returned to the main room, he changed into the regular clothes he wore in the house, took the hot and cold tea handed over by Xue's hands, took a sip comfortably, and before Xue also sat down, Wang Dong said indifferently: "Mama Xue's injury has healed, and you don't have much experience in this backyard matter, so let her help you." She is the old person of the Xue family, and no one is more intimate with you than her. ”

Xue Shi was overjoyed when he heard this: "Is Mama Xue really okay?" Then he was a little suspicious: "I heard Pei Lan, who I sent to serve her yesterday, say that Mama Xue always exhales pain in her sleep at night. Master, Mama Xue won't be reckless because I'm worried that I won't be able to handle the affairs of the inner courtyard, right? You know her temperament, and she always likes to worry about it. ”

Xue walked up to Wang Dong and sat down against him: "Although the concubine is now familiar with the affairs of the inner courtyard, and there are few things going wrong with the help of Mama Zhuang and Mama Zhao, but the relationship between the concubine and Mama Xue is extraordinary, so I naturally hope that she will get better as soon as possible and come back to help the concubine." But...... After all, Mama Xue is old, and her concubine is really ...... I can't bear it. At her age, if it weren't for the fact that the concubine was really dull, she would have enshrined him a long time ago and honored him well. ”

Xue's expression was very self-reproachful.

Seeing her like this, Wang Dong was a little reluctant, and when he saw that the maids had retreated, he gently hugged her and comforted her with a smile: "Who said you were stupid, didn't you just say that you rarely go wrong in dealing with backyard matters recently?" You're capable. It's just that Mama Xue is used to worrying about people, and I'm afraid that it won't be suitable for her to be idle all of a sudden, so you can pick up some things and let her take care of them. For example, the money and goods in this house. (To be continued)
