Chapter 256: Helper (Pink Plus Change)
Hearing this, Xue Shi nodded: "If you squeeze it, the house can be lived, but mother...... Where do I arrange it? ”
This is really a problem, thinking of Sun's picky temperament and desire to control, Sanniang has a headache.
Moreover, this time Sun's entry into Beijing, what kind of role Erniang played in it, Sanniang is not clear, Sanniang will not be so simple as to think that Erniang and Sun's entry into Beijing will be a harmonious scene.
Sanniang thought about it, it was the most unwise thing for the Xue family to have a hard fight with the Sun family, and it was not necessary.
"Mother, it's better to give up the main house for grandmother to live in." Sanniang groaned.
Xue Shi didn't have any displeasure when he heard this, but nodded and said: "I also have this idea, my mother is an elder, and I can't let him live in a wing room or backyard." It's better for me to give up the main room. ”
Sanniang was also happy to see that the Xue family was indisputable. According to Sun's temperament, even if the Xue family does not propose to give up the main house, the Sun family will force the Xue family to give in. No matter what Wang Dong's character is, he is still a filial son, and he will not grab the main house with his mother.
Xue took the initiative to propose, not only to make people think that she was virtuous, but also to be more respected by Wang Dong. Besides, how do you say that? The grievances suffered in front of the mother-in-law will naturally be compensated by the husband.
To suffer a loss is to take advantage, which is correct in many cases, the key is to see whether you are smart or not, whether you can calculate.
"Mother will mention it to my father when he comes back today, and say that you are willing to give up the main house for grandmother." If you bring it up first, the effect is completely different than when someone else proposes it and you have to let it go.
Hearing this, Xue Shi nodded: "This matter has to be discussed with the master first. But the master is a filial son, and he will definitely have no opinion. ”
Sanniang smiled: "After my mother and father moved out of the main house, I moved to the West Chamber, and my fifth sister and I moved to the backyard." ”
When Xue Shi heard this, he shook his head and refused: "How can I wronged you, and besides, you can't stay at home for too long." "Sanniang and Xuan Shao's wedding date is next year, and the specific date will be given by Qin Tianjian later. But because Xuan Shao is not young, the meaning in the palace is that he hopes to get married earlier, so he will not delay the end of next year.
"The back west compartment in the backyard was originally used to store sundries. I asked people to clean it up and put it all in the back east room, and I will live in the backyard with my lord in the future. Xue thought for a moment.
Although this house has only three entrances. But it's a courtyard house with a big three. In addition to a row of back cover rooms in the backyard, there are also two back wings, which were used as warehouses in the past.
The two wings in the backyard will be more spacious than those in the middle yard, Sanniang said: "The west wing of the backyard is not as good as me and the second sister and the fifth sister living in one." ”
Xue Shi waved his hand: "That house is spacious, but it is much better than the one in the middle courtyard." You don't have to say any more, it's a hassle to move around. ”
Sanniang thought that there were still some days anyway, and she was really not in a hurry to decide this. When the time comes, it will be up to Wang Dong to mean it.
"Mother will send someone to clean up the backyard tomorrow, if so...... If you don't have enough people, you can draw some people from the front yard. Sanniang reminded Xue Shidao.
Although Xue Shi felt that it was still early, it was also easy to clean up the place earlier: "What you said is also true." However, there are enough people in the backyard, and there is no need to draw people from the front yard. ”
Sanniang knew that the Xue family didn't understand what she meant. After thinking about it, he prompted: "Mother, many times a good reputation is not run by yourself, don't let go of the opportunity when you have the opportunity to earn it." ”
Xue was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he realized that Sanniang wanted to take this opportunity to promote her reputation of filial piety, with the help of the people in the outer courtyard, but with the help of their mouths, in addition, people felt that she valued her mother-in-law, so she just moved the public.
Xue's face flushed: "I, I gave up the main house, not for this reputation. ”
Seeing that Xue understood what she meant, Sanniang said with a smile: "Sanniang naturally understands that my mother is just sincere and filial to my grandmother, you have good intentions, and you are not afraid that people will know, right?" It's just that now, there are some things that you need, so why launch them if you can use them? As long as you have a clear conscience. ”
In fact, in addition to wanting to make Xue's virtuous name more obvious, Sanniang also wants to get a dose of preventive injection first. The Sun family has a violent temperament, and Erniang is unpredictable, who knows what will happen to the two of them? The Xue family may suffer a loss if they are not careful. Since ancient times, the war between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, although there is no gunsmoke and blood, the cruelty cannot be humanized by outsiders.
Because the battle between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is, to put it bluntly, it is to grab men for territory, and there is no essential difference between men fighting in the south and north to grab women for territory.
The Xue clan had to stand on the moral high ground before the Sun clan came, and it would be much easier to act in the future.
Although Xue was a little embarrassed, she knew that Sanniang was for her good, and what she said was very reasonable, so she nodded and agreed.
Sanniang was naturally happy to see that the Xue family was not rigid.
The two chatted for a while, and Sanniang knew that the Xue family had a lot of things to do now, so she got up and said goodbye.
After leaving the Xue family's main room, Sanniang saw a slender figure walking towards the corridor on the right.
Sanniang frowned without a trace, deliberately paused under the corridor, and when the figure approached, Sanniang smiled and nodded: "Aunt Cui, are you here to say hello to your mother today?" ”
Aunt Cui's eyes flashed, but she immediately lowered her head and walked over in small steps, and saluted Sanniang: "Third Miss." The concubine hasn't had a chance to congratulate the third lady yet. Thinking of the last time she mentioned Sanniang's marriage, Sanniang scolded her righteously and sternly, and Aunt Cui only said this, no longer said anything else, just stood respectfully on the side.
Sanniang glanced at Aunt Cui and smiled faintly: "Mother, she is busy, doesn't Aunt Cui have to learn the rules from Mama Zhuang today?" ”
Aunt Cui paused, gritted her teeth secretly, but her smile did not change: "The concubine just came out of Mama Zhuang, but the concubine has something important to ask to see Mrs., so she came to the main room." ”
Sanniang thought about it, she really didn't have a position to stop Aunt Cui from asking to see Xue, so she didn't bother much, only nodded and said, "Then I won't delay my aunt and my mother to talk about things, and my aunt will please." ”
After saying that, Sanniang left with a smile, but before leaving, Sanniang glanced at the agarwood that opened the curtain and came out to look because she heard the movement outside.
Not long after Sanniang returned to her West Chamber, Bai Ying came to report that Mama Zhuang asked to see her.
Sanniang took the book's hand for a moment, nodded and told Bai Ying to let Mama Zhuang come in and speak.
After a while, Mama Zhuang came in, and after the salute, she went straight to the point and said, "Third Miss, just now the little girl next to me heard Aunt Cui talking to Mama Xue. ”
The little girl was arranged by Sanniang to monitor Aunt Cui in the backyard, so she didn't feel experienced, so she just nodded and pointed to the small ones with brocade mats next to her: "Mama sit down and talk." ”
Mama Zhuang didn't shirk, sat down generously, and then told Sanniang what the little girl had heard.
Sanniang listened lightly on the side, with no other emotions on her face, as if what Mama Zhuang said was just some small things after dinner.
Mama Zhuang saw that Sanniang was so young and did so perfectly when she raised her kung fu, and when she heard that someone was going to secretly calculate herself, and it was also related to her marriage and life, she didn't move at all, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She had never met such a powerful little girl.
"What Mama Xue said, but the truth?" Sanniang saw that Mama Xue had finished speaking, so she asked lightly.
Hearing this, Mama Zhuang nodded: "Mama Xue is not wrong, and this matter is not without precedent before." In the previous dynasty, the young lady of the Fuguo family was assigned to marry the eldest son of General Li's family who had made war achievements, but the young lady of the Guogong family unfortunately died of serious illness half a year before leaving the cabinet. Because it is a marriage, the will cannot be changed, and the Fuguo family originally had only one concubine, so he had to record a concubine in the name of the Duchess of the Kingdom as a concubine and marry the Li family. Although the Li family knew that this was a concubine who married in, they could not be dissatisfied at all because of the will of the saint. ”
Sanniang nodded, which was also the reason why she wanted to envelop Grandma Zhuang. There are many rules, which she doesn't know about the taboos of the family, and she needs someone like Mama Zhuang to be by her side.
"I heard that Mama Zhuang has a son." Sanniang suddenly changed the topic.
Mama Zhuang was already surprised by Sanniang's supernatural powers, and when she heard Sanniang mention her son, she didn't feel anything strange, but her eyes were a little dim and said: "He is not in good health, that is, he is hanging on to his life by medicine." ”
After Mama Zhuang left the palace, she once married, but her husband died later, and her son was seriously ill. This is also why Mama Zhuang is still going to various mansions at such an old age and being the nurturing grandmother of the ladies of various families. Because of her son's illness, she needed very precious medicinal herbs to hang on to her life. And Mama Zhuang's body that she saved in the palace over the years has all filled this bottomless pit.
"Is Mama Zhuang willing to follow Sanniang in the future?" Sanniang also doesn't like to beat around the bush.
Mama Zhuang was stunned: "What does the third lady mean?" ”
Sanniang smiled: "I will be responsible for all your son's annual medication in the future, and you can also take him over to take care of it together." ”
Mama Zhuang was overjoyed when she heard this, but after calming down, she hesitated: "Third Miss, you may not know that the phone bill for the medicinal materials used by my family Kuan'er every year is ......."
Sanniang stretched out her hand to stop Mama Zhuang's words, and said with a light smile: "Since I know that you have a son, I naturally know that he costs a lot of money every year for medication, you don't have to worry about this, I naturally have a way to deal with it before I dare to open this mouth." You just have to decide if you want to follow me or not. Moreover, I can think of ways to get better treatment for your son's illness in the future. (To be continued)
