Chun Ying hurriedly asked, "Sister Hongyu?" What happened to you? ”

Ruby paused, then turned her head, tears still shining on her face. She didn't answer, just turned back to cry in a daze. Chunying was about to ask again, but she heard a courtyard door not far away open with a bang, and a half-hundred-year-old man walked out.

The old man was dressed like the rest of the family, but he had an extra silk armor, and his face was ruddy, so he should be doing well, but his thin eyes and thin lips gave people a mean feeling. As soon as he came out and saw Hongyu, he straightened his face: "Why don't you get out of here?!" Crying in front of my house, showing people, you are not ashamed, I still want to see people! He glanced at Chunying, his mouth moved, and he turned his head and walked back.

"Daddy!" Ruby threw herself over and cried, "You let me see my mother, at least let me know how sick she is, please!" She knelt on the ground and hugged the old man's legs, begging bitterly, but the old man looked around in panic, then at Chunying, kicked her away, and muttered, "I don't have a daughter like you." He walked quickly through the door and slammed it shut. Hongyu pounced on the door panel and kept shouting, "Dad! Let me in! Let me meet my mother! Father! Please! But the door never opened again, and her father kept telling her to "go back" behind the door.

Chun Ying was so angry that she hurriedly went over to support Hongyu, who was crying breathlessly: "Sister Hongyu, Sister Hongyu, are you okay?" He glared at the door again.

Hongyu cried so hard that she almost leaned on Chunying, who struggled to support her and slowly walked to the edge of the tree so that she could rest against the trunk. Gradually, Hongyu calmed down, but still looked heartbroken, and muttered, "Why...... I'm your daughter......" Seeing that Chunying's eyes were red, she persuaded in a low voice: "Don't be sad, since he is so ruthless, why do you ask him?" Ruby was stunned, as if she hadn't heard what she said.

A courtyard door not far ahead opened, and an old woman stepped out. Chunying recognized her as Aunt Zhou in the courtyard next door, and hurriedly greeted her. That Aunt Zhou squinted and walked over, and asked in a trembling voice, "Is it a red jade?" ”

"Grandma......" Hongyu recognized Aunt Zhou, threw herself into her arms excitedly, and cried loudly.

Aunt Zhou stroked Hongyu's face with tears and sighed: "Good boy, I know you have been wronged, don't worry about those people." The guy who hates the poor and loves the rich! Even if you don't care about your wife, you will definitely not die well! She scolded a few words at the courtyard wall before saying to Chunying: "Good Chun'er, you are a kind-hearted child, Aunt Zhou will remember it." She touched Chunying's head, then walked back with Hongyu in her arms, and whispered comfort all the way into the courtyard door.

The door of Hongyu's house never opened, but a few women from nearby people peeked in, and when they saw Chunying's gaze turned around, they hurriedly shrank their heads.

Chunying pursed her lips, she roughly guessed what was going on, Hongyu's father actually hated his daughter to this point, and refused to let her enter the door even when his wife was sick, it was too ruthless. She glared at the door in disgust, and strode home.

When she entered the house, she noticed that her mother was sitting at the table in a daze, with two teacups on the table, as if a guest had come, so she casually asked, "Who is here?" "Take out the contents of the basket at the same time.

Mother Lu was awakened by her, and only said, "Your Aunt Ma came to sit down." Then he asked his daughter, "How is your father eating?" ”

"Okay." Chunying recounted the experience of delivering the meal, and asked her mother again, "Who is that Second Master Wan?" It seems that a lot of people hate him. ”

Mother Lu sneered: "It's just a guy who can't get on the stage, and he thinks he can be powerful and blessed just because he married the goddaughter of Manager Wang." Hmph, people's sons-in-law are not so arrogant! I don't know how to do things, but the place in the concierge can be eaten by him alone? ”

Chunying raised her eyebrows, thinking that since this Wan Er is not a long-term powerful person, it is good to stay away from him in the future, and there is no need to slap him.

She told her about meeting Hongyu on the road, and said, "I didn't know that Aunt Zhou was her aunt, and her father was too ruthless." ”

Lu's mother took out the food left for her daughter and put it on the table: "He thinks about climbing high branches all day long, if it weren't for the poor red jade appearance, I'm afraid he will have to ......" paused, glanced at his daughter, and changed his words: "When the Xu family was proud that day, he begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother to climb this family, and as soon as the Xu family was defeated, he turned his face, and actually wanted to change his daughter to the stupid son of Wu Pozi." When parents get to this job, their reputation is also bad. He also has a daughter, which is also a good one, but it's a pity that he was involved. Who dares to come to the door to propose marriage now? Fortunately, she is on an errand in the house, and she can only ask her master for mercy in the future. ”

Chunying listened and ate at the same time, and occasionally echoed a few words, Lu's mother felt that she was very happy to say today, so she simply told all the grievances and grievances of those families. Only then did Chunying know that not only Aunt Zhou was Hongyu's aunt, but it turned out that one of Hongyu's aunts and mothers also married into the Lu family, and the son she gave birth to was her second cousin. Among the servants who have served for generations in the Hou Mansion, there are more than a dozen of the oldest families, and they all have marriages with each other. Seriously calculated, I am afraid that three of the four families in the same hospital are relatives of their family.

The second cousin mentioned by Lu's mother, Chunying has never seen it. Speaking of which, there are only two left in the old Lu family, Lu Yougui and this cousin Lu Chongjun. However, unlike Lu Yougui, who has been mixed in the gate for many years, the second uncle of the Lu family is clever and capable, and he has been on errands since he was a teenager, and now he is working under the eldest young master.

As soon as Chunying heard her mother say that the second uncle had a lot of savings, her heart became active, and she hurriedly asked: "Since the second uncle is capable and works as an errand outside, there should be a way to find a good errand for my father, right?" Is the second uncle in charge? ”

"It's not a ......," Lu's mother thought for a while, "but there aren't many people in the house, and he's pretty good." After a pause, he stared at his daughter and said, "Aren't you dead yet?" Didn't your dad say it all last night? He didn't want to go. ”

"Dad just didn't want to go to Aunt Lu's Zhuangzi, but he didn't say he didn't want to find other errands." Chunying sat closer to her mother, "If you say that your father is afraid that he will be framed in the future, but after so many years, hasn't the second uncle come over safely?" It can be seen that the Lu family is not bad or bad. Mother doesn't want her father to come out? If we can let it out, our family will be able to live freely, and my brother will not have to wait for others in the future. She knew that her mother loved her little brother the most, so she said so, and sure enough, Mother Lu's expression hesitated, and she hurriedly struck the iron while it was hot: "Even if you don't want to let it out, Dad has a good errand, and the monthly money can be added, and our family will be more prosperous!" Poor little tiger is more than a year old, he hasn't worn new clothes, and he doesn't dare to burn more charcoal when he sleeps at night, and his small body is as cold as ice......"

Chunying's words were exaggerated, but they did effectively touch Lu's mother's loving heart, and she felt distressed: "You are right, if the family has more silver, your younger brother can live better, and your eldest sister doesn't have to be so economical in it." She immediately decided that she would try her best to convince her husband that even if she did not accept the Lu family's recommendation, she would find another better errand.

Chunying's heart was relieved, and she was proud, so she might as well hear someone shouting outside the door: "Lu family, you come out for me!" Tell me what to say today! But it was an unfamiliar female voice, and her tone was very unkind, and she frowned when she heard it.

Mother Lu was also a little annoyed, and immediately pushed the door out, only to see a woman in her forties standing at the gate of the courtyard, who was her opponent Wu Pozi, and her face suddenly looked bad: "Who are you calling?" I have nothing to say to you! Unintentionally, I glanced at the two daughters-in-law behind Mrs. Wu, one of whom was cowering, and it was the neighbor Ma's family, so I had a premonition that something was wrong.

Sure enough, Mrs. Wu scolded: "The Lu family came to you, right?" She told your family to do Wanping Zhuangzi's errand? I'm telling you! That errand has already been done by our family, the second young master and the manager Wang have spoken, you two should die as soon as possible! ”

Mother Lu was so angry that she barely crushed her teeth, she glared at the Ma family, and secretly regretted that she shouldn't have revealed it to the other party. The Ma family's face was full of shame, and he said curtly: "Sister-in-law Lu, I don't mean it, I just talked about it casually when I chatted with my sister-in-law......"

Chunying frowned and looked at her mother worriedly. In fact, my parents have already made a decision, and I don't plan to do this errand, and my mother just had the intention of changing her mind, and now she suddenly comes out like this, but what should I do?

Mother Lu was originally just mediocre about this matter, but now that she listened to the words of the other party, she aroused her competitiveness: "Yo, I didn't know that Aunt Wu was so well-informed, when did this happen?" You've already made up your mind? Don't talk big and try to deceive people, right? ”

"You're going to deceive people!" Not to be outdone, Mrs. Wu glared back, "Anyway, this errand is our home, you guys go as soon as possible!" No matter who calls it, you can't say yes! ”

Mother Lu crossed her waist and raised her head and said, "Since it is your family, what do you say in front of me?" Why don't you go back as soon as possible and ask for a few more rewards? ”

Mrs. Wu stepped on the threshold with one foot, and her head was held higher: "Since you are jealous of our family, you will send your daughter up, but I am afraid that I will not be able to please the grandfather without a good look, so I can only go home and cry by myself!" ”

Chunying's eyes widened when she heard this, and Mother Lu was even more annoyed, when she even picked up a wooden barrel and smashed it over, Mrs. Wu dodged out of the door, and scolded in her mouth, the Ma family and another daughter-in-law hurriedly came to stop, Mother Lu refused to let go, and gave Mrs. Wu a blow to the forehead, and the latter screamed like a pig: "Kill people-come on-" The people nearby gathered around to watch the excitement, but the entire backstreet was blocked.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Chunying hurriedly stepped forward to grab her mother and whispered: "Beware of the big trouble, she will beat her up!" Mother Lu was stunned for a moment, the movements of her hands slowed down, and the Ma family quickly snatched the wooden barrel.

When Mrs. Wu saw that Mother Lu had no weapon in her hand, she became proud, raised her neck and shouted: "You fight, you fight, I have lived for dozens of years, I have never been so angry, you killed me as soon as possible, and then go to the second young master to reason!" ”

Mother Lu was scared for three points when she heard this, and Chunying saw that Mrs. Wu was about to scold again with a smug face, so she said coldly: "Auntie, let's say a few words, the second young master is a person who does big things, even if he spoils your sister again, there is no reason to care about such trivial things as servant women quarrelling." It's really a big deal, and you're nothing good! ”

Mrs. Wu's face turned red, and she turned to scold Chunying: "Little hoof, I'll talk to your mother, which onion are you, dare to interject?" Do you understand the rules?! ”

Chun Ying sneered: "I don't understand the rules, does the eldest lady understand?" I only know that all errands are decided by the master's family, and whoever is assigned to it is who's family, but I don't know that the eldest mother is the one who is in charge, and no one else is allowed to do any errand you want, and you can't even speak to the master's family. ”

Wu Pozi reprimanded: "Nonsense! When have I ever said something like this?! ”

"Didn't you just say that this errand belongs to your family, and you want us to go as soon as possible, no matter who calls us, we are not allowed to respond? I didn't even agree to the master's call, and the people here could hear it clearly. ”

Mrs. Wu looked around and saw everyone whispering, and her heart panicked. She is self-defeating, she is domineering, and her mouth is bad, which is naturally unpopular, and some people snickered and secretly applauded at the moment. She panicked even more.

Seeing this, the Ma family smiled and said, "Yo, what's wrong with this girl Chun'er today?" The mouth is much sharper. But this shouldn't be said, it's a taboo, and it's not good for people to hear it. ”

Chun Ying glanced at her lightly: "How can it be bad?" I'm just talking according to the rules, so it's not right to follow the rules? ”

The Ma family's face was sneering, and Mother Lu was proud: "Of course it's right to abide by the rules, only the unruly person will be cheeky and proclaim how decent his daughter is all day long, but it's a pity that ...... Seriously, my aunt didn't even earn it. ”

Mrs. Wu's face was so red that she could drip blood, and she was about to pounce on her teeth and claws, but she was stopped by everyone. Chunying quickly turned back to the courtyard gate, copied a broom, and decided that even if she really staged a full martial arts, she couldn't suffer a loss. Mother Lu had already rolled up her sleeves and put on a defensive posture. The scene became tense for a moment.

"Stop it!" A loud shout stopped the crowd's movements, and the streets fell silent. Chunying stepped out of the door and saw that it was a woman wearing a dark blue satin lambskin trimmed armor, with a few golden hairpins on her head, which was quite extravagant. Everyone seemed to be very jealous of her, and the people who peeked in the corner hurriedly hid at the door, while the others saluted respectfully and called "Aunt Xu".

Aunt Xu walked over, glanced at Mother Lu coldly, and then turned to Mrs. Wu, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes: "What's the matter?!" There was a fight on the street?! ”

(I don't know if this counts as blood...... ）
