Chapter 138 Escape

Xu's eldest maid Hui Qiu had just held Jian Lao up and prevented her from kneeling, but she didn't expect this person to struggle to hit the pillar again. Fortunately, Huiqiu had followed Xu to see the world outside, and he reacted very quickly, and he had already grabbed Jian Lao's sleeve tightly.

Listening to the sound of "Ahh

Hui Qiu was embarrassed, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

When Jian Lao saw that the sleeves of his shirt were torn, he blushed even more, and wanted to hit forward. Jian Feizhen and Jian Feiyi, who were standing beside her, had already reacted, stepped forward together, and grabbed her arms one left and one right.

"Mother, if you have something to say, this will only make it more difficult for Aunt He......" Jian Feizhen couldn't help but persuade. Today's mother is so abnormal, even Jian Feiyi was stunned. - I've never seen my mother like this.

Jian Lao was embraced by two children in the middle, his face was stained with tears, and the sleeves on his body were torn open again, and the fluttering sleeves hung down and went straight to his feet, which was very embarrassing.

Seeing Old Jane's pitiful appearance, Mrs. He, who was sitting at the top, sighed, waved her hand, and said, let my mother-in-law sit down. It's so noisy, and the little things are also big. - Let people think that we are sorry for the Zhenguo Mansion, not that the Zhenguo Mansion is sorry for us. "Although Mrs. He has a good heart, she is not a soft persimmon. Where is Jian Lao's here to make amends? It's clear that he's coming to gamble.

Hearing that Mrs. He was direct, she set a pun for Old Jian's behavior, and Jian Feizhen's face also turned red.

"Mother, sit down. The aunt and the old lady of the He family are both reasonable people. They won't blame their mother. Seeing his mother's helpless appearance, Jian Feizhen felt heartache again.

Only then did Old Jian bless the old lady He who was on the top, and said that the old lady was not strange. I was anxious for a while, for fear that this incident would make Miss He have a pimple in her heart, and if she marries in the future, she will have an awkward relationship with my eldest son, won't it hurt them for the rest of their lives? ”

Xu listened awkwardly, and said with a sinking face, what does Jian Lao mean? Are you here to apologize, or are you here to accuse my girl of being small-minded? Besides, the reputation of the girl's family is more valuable than gold. My girl's reputation has been damaged because of your town's government, and we haven't said it yet, but you are worried that my girl's marriage will cause you to block. May I ask Elder Jane, are you putting the cart before the horse? ”

That's a very unkind way to say. But at this point, Xu didn't think about being polite to Jian Lao anymore. If you get cheap and sell it well, and sell it to other people's homes, don't blame people for reaching out and hitting you in the face.

Jian Feizhen's head hung down, and he was even more embarrassed. Even Jian Feiyi, who had relatively thick nerves, sniffed out a hint of something wrong, and glanced at her mother Jian Lao uneasily.

Jian Lao was obviously stunned for a moment, it seemed that things were completely out of her control, and she didn't expect that Xu, who was from the Dongyang Xu family, could do something that didn't suit everyone's identity in such a disregard for everyone's face. After talking for a while, Jian Lao said in a low voice. It's mine, and I'm here today to apologize to Miss He. - Where is Miss He? I have to make amends for her in person, so that I can feel better. ”

Mrs. He said lightly above that she hadn't married yet, and her mother-in-law would come to the door to make amends for those who didn't pass the door, and this would be passed out, and the eldest girl in our family wouldn't want to be a person, and she wouldn't marry for the rest of her life. ”

If you want to talk about rumors, it hurts the dignity of the He family, not He Ningxin's reputation alone. If Mr. Jian wants to make amends, he should first make amends to Mrs. He, and then Mr. He and Xu. As for He Ningxin, no matter what she said, she couldn't accept the gift of Elder Jian. She is both a junior and a future. As far as filial piety is concerned, even if it is a mother-in-law, she should be silent for the elderly. If she asks her elders to apologize to her, she won't mix up when she goes out in the future, just being poked in the back will make her uneasy for the rest of her life.

Jian Lao didn't seem to think of this, and moved uneasily in the chair, the Tao is just at home, how can it be spread? - The old lady still asked me to make a personal compensation with Miss He. ”

Xu coughed lightly, and said Elder Jian, it's not that I can't believe you, it's just that the lessons ahead are not far away, and we don't dare to take risks. "But it was a rumor, and it also happened in the He family, but it spread outside through the mouth of Jian Lao. Whether she was intentional or unintentional, it was enough to alert the people of the He family.

The people of the Jian family also heard Xu's words, and they were very embarrassed.

Old Jian sat in silence for a while, then got up and gave Mrs. He a big salute, and the Tao is all mine. In the future, I will always stay in the house, and I will not go anywhere for socializing. This way everyone can rest assured. He saluted Xu again, and said that Xu was also relieved. The He family is the great benefactor of our Jian family, and the marriage contract between our two families was single-handedly brokered when the master was alive, and I will not let others get in the way. In my life, I will only recognize the eldest girl as my eldest son. ”

In the past, Jian Lao had always lived in a simple place and rarely socialized, so there were very few nobles and nobles in the capital who were familiar with her. When she said this, she thought she regretted it tightly.

Xu was silent for a long time. Veteran Jian put her posture so low, it was like someone slapping her left cheek, and she also put her right cheek up. Such an old Jane made Xu unable to continue his heavy words. What's more, Jian Lao is He Ningxin's mother-in-law in the future, and she will continue to be unrelenting, she really tears her face, and it is her own daughter who suffers.

"Elder Jane, who is without fault? It's great to know that you can change. This time, we will treat the Zhenguo Mansion as an unintentional mistake and will not be pursued again. But if there is a next time," Xu thought about it, and said slowly, "Our He family is not a soft persimmon, and we will not marry our daughter, so we will ignore it." But he was warning Jian Lao, don't think about waiting for He Ningxin to get married, and then make up for it.

Most people are bullying the weak and afraid of the hard. With a tough mother, her daughter will suffer a lot less. Jian Feiyi suddenly envied Miss He, who had such a maiden family

Seeing that Xu's tone softened, Jian Lao had already revealed the matter this time, and said with a smile Of course not, of course not. Our family is now the eldest child, and when Miss He gets married, of course, Miss He is in charge. Xu Dake can rest assured......"

Xu felt a little better, raised his eyes and saw Jian Lao's torn gown, which was very eye-catching, and instructed Hui Dong, another big girl behind him, to go to the library to get a newly made Yunjin gown and compensate Jian Lao. "You have made a mistake against Hui Qiu Dao again, quickly make amends to Jian Lao, and follow to serve."

Hui Qiu smiled and kowtowed to Jian Lao.

Jian Lao hurriedly helped her up himself, and said with a smile that he didn't need to. No need. I don't blame you for not having this garment that is not strong. ”

Xu got up and left, took Jian Lao's hand, ignored Jian Lao's shirk, and took her to the inner room to change clothes.

The old lady He in the hall started to talk to Jian Feiyang and Jian Feiyi who stayed behind.

Xu took Jian Lao to the back room, personally helped her replace the torn gown, took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, frowned slightly, and said, Where did you buy this silk? It's also too cutting corners. Silk should have been at least 300 yarns per inch, but 100 yarns in it would not be enough. "In Xu's shop, high-end clothing is the majority, and I am very familiar with the quality and price of these fabrics.

Jian Lao's face was flushed with shame, and he muttered something to make his in-laws laugh. - This is the clothes I wore when I went out to meet guests, and I only had two clothes. "I wet my eyes again, I don't hide it from my family, although our family has recovered now, it is just a showcase, the family has a large degree of food and clothing, and there is little income. I can save as much as I can, but I can't wronged a few children. "Jian Feizhen and Jian Feiyi are dressed in good materials, and they can see it a long time ago.

Xu sighed slightly. The Jane family was a family for hundreds of years, and it was also copied in the hands of Empress Dowager Pang. Over the years, it has been difficult for this family. Although he has been reinstated, it is probably very difficult to maintain the same dignity as before.

"Mother-in-law, it's not that I'm talkative. Let's live our lives, we can't just picture the outside light. Wear as big a hat as you have a head. It is not possible to slap a swollen face and become fat. Xu said it very politely, and felt that Jian Lao still couldn't let go of the rich and noble pomp of the Guogong Mansion back then.

Jian Lao didn't feel that he had lost face, and nodded busily, agreeing with what the authentic in-laws said well. I've lived a hard life, and these outside things are unreliable. But my eldest son is now a first-class town prince, and he is also the governor of Zhengyipin, and there is no pomp, which is a shame for him. However, we are much better now than when we first returned to Beijing, and we still have some money left over every year. Otherwise," Elder Jian smiled awkwardly as he looked at the torn gown he had replaced, "Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to afford such a bargain." ”

Xu took the apricot blossom color cloud brocade dark pattern group flower blessing gown taken out of the warehouse from Hui Dong's hand, and gently helped Jian Lao put it on, and said earnestly that the in-laws are also people with daughters, we all do it, and it is not easy in this life. I also hope that my in-laws will treat my family a little bit more leniently for the sake of our two families. ”

Xu said this, and it was difficult for Jian Lao to show it, so he was busy and relieved. I say now that my in-laws don't believe it. Only when Xin'er gets married in the future, my in-laws will tell me whether it is true or not. - In short, Xin'er is the eldest daughter-in-law of my family, and I will not treat her badly. ”

Xu just left, and took Jian Lao out of the back room. The two came to the outhouse, and Old Jian greeted Mrs. He again, and then took the people of the Jian family to leave.

What happened to Jian and He's families in the capital, Jian Feiyang, who went out to help the saint on an errand, still didn't know anything.

At this time, Jian Feiyang was on the way back to Beijing from Cheng'an Mansion in Southeast Province.

With his hands behind his back, he stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the ethereal waterway in front of him, and the water surface was filled with a layer of cyan water vapor, which was on a two-story official boat on the Qingjiang River.
